Item 8.01.  Other Events.

As previously reported in its public filings, on March 8, 2012, Watts Water Technologies, Inc., Watts Regulator Co., and Watts Plumbing Technologies Co., Ltd., among other companies, were named as defendants in Trabakoolas et al., v. Watts Water Technologies, Inc., et al., a putative nationwide class action complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California seeking to recover damages and other relief based on the alleged failure of toilet connectors. The complaint seeks among other items, damages in an unspecified amount, replacement costs, injunctive relief, and attorneys’ fees and costs.

On December 12, 2013, the Company reached an agreement in principle to settle all claims. The total settlement amount is $23.0 million, of which the Company would be responsible for $14.0 million after insurance proceeds of $9.0 million. The settlement was subject to review by the Court at a preliminary approval hearing held on February 12, 2014.  The Court granted preliminary approval on February 14, 2014.  On July 18, 2014, the Court granted final approval of the class settlement at a fairness hearing, noting that the approval would be formalized in a subsequent written order.  Once the written order is entered, it will become final unless an appeal is taken within thirty days.
