That combination of recognizing accomplishments and a commitment to “improve every day” is an important part of who we are as a company. Sales reached $3.35 billion, an increase of two percent over 2007. We continue to become more global as 35 percent of our sales are now outside the United States. Our near-term intent is to reach 40 percent of sales outside the United States. We are investing resources on our most attractive global growth opportunities to get there. Earnings per share of $2.59 represented a record for the company and were up 22 percent year-over- year. By leveraging PIMS, our operational excellence initiatives dramatically reduced our cost structure to brace for the diffi cult economy. And our pricing actions proved effective in lessening the impact from increased commodity costs, including materials and energy. We have more to do in the area of operational excellence, but the foundation PIMS provides offers our teams the resources to drive sustainable improvement in operating results. We reduced our debt levels by over $100 million, which strengthened an already healthy balance sheet. Our lower sustainable tax rate refl ects our ongoing investment to improve our structure in Europe and Asia. And since the end of the fi scal year 2008, we have increased our dividend six percent to $0.72 per share, marking the 33rd consecutive annual increase. Well Positioned for our Customers Solving critical customer problems is a priority for our businesses. Our customers rely on Pentair to provide more innovation, more value and increased dependability. To meet these important customer requirements, we have addressed several areas. We improved our global business alignment, introduced a number of innovative products and improved quality and delivery. Randall J. Hogan, Chairman and Chief Executive Offi cer Realistic & Focused. Most of us know someone full of potential, but lacking a realistic approach or the proper focus to achieve their goals. Often they are described as “too optimistic” or “not action oriented.” Companies can be that way, too. In this environment, companies like that risk failure. We aren’t such a company. At Pentair, we are committed to getting stronger during these challenging times. By successfully navigating years of dreadful residential markets, record high material costs and most recently a global industrial recession, we’re already stronger. We are realistic about the situation and we’ve set aggressive but achievable targets. We are focused on Pentair’s Integrated Management System (PIMS) to drive operating excellence while also investing to capture our long-term growth opportunities. Pentair is prepared for the challenges ahead. We remain realistic and focused. And that energizes me and all of our employees around the world. 2008 Financial Results By most measures, we had a good 2008, delivering solid fi nancial results. Although we’re proud of our improving every day Pentair Annual Report 2008 3 Letter to our Shareholders (continued) By forming four global business units — Flow Technologies, Filtration, Pool Equipment and Technical Products — we are transforming to drive global growth at the same time we add breadth and scale to satisfy customer demands. Our talented global workforce has begun to leverage this alignment to address global opportunities and ensure that we are leveraging best practices to improve the customer experience. The need for energy-effi cient environmentally sound solutions remains paramount, despite the challenging economic environment. Individuals and organizations require effi cient solutions to improve access to safe water, eliminate waste, improve effi ciencies and protect equipment. Pentair’s Water and Technical Products groups are uniquely positioned to add signifi cant value in these critical areas. Here are just a few examples of how Pentair’s new solutions improve our customers’ experience every day: · Our new EnviRo™ system revolutionizes the way water is fi ltered through reverse osmosis. With minimal storage (tank) requirements, the EnviRo™ solution reduces the physical and environmental footprint of reverse osmosis by dramatically improving water through-put and effi ciency. So rather than waste four cups of water to generate one cup of pure, clean water, EnviRo™ generates four cups of pure water while discharging only one. · Desalination is expanding as a solution for bringing water to regions infl icted with water shortages as a result of drought, arid conditions or growing demand. Pentair’s Codeline pressure vessels have been the leader in desalination. In 2008, we extended our desalination product portfolio to include: • Pentair’s Aqualine pre-fi ltration system, which provides increased fi lter life with a smaller footprint, greatly reducing capital and operating costs. • Our new high-effi ciency reverse osmosis pumping technology, which demonstrates “best in class” energy effi ciency. · The new AccessPlus enclosure, one of the most recent products from our Technical Products business, provides equipment protection and security, as well as cooling support for advanced technical equipment. In a short time it is already a top seller in the networking and telecommunications marketplace. Our focus on the customer goes beyond product innovation to our continued commitment to superior quality and customer service. By leveraging PIMS, we improved our on-time delivery metrics, as well as our warranty costs — both indications that we are improving customer service every day. Positioning our Portfolio Ensuring that we are positioning our portfolio to capture our best growth opportunities is also important. We continue to add resources in key growth regions such as the Middle East, China, India, Southeast Asia and Latin America. These investments produced strong double-digit sales growth in these regions. Our organization is well-positioned to benefi t from the growing investments in infrastructure, industry and personal spending in these regions. In second quarter 2008, we formed Pentair Residential Filtration, a joint venture with GE Water & Process Technologies. This partnership combines our respective global residential water fi ltration businesses. Pentair Residential Filtration offers industry-leading technologies and expansive distribution channels to provide reliable and affordable water treatment solutions to meet growing needs. We remain grounded in our commitment to the residential water treatment market and are well positioned when the market rebounds. improving every day Pentair Annual Report 2008 4 Letter to our Shareholders (continued) Additionally, by divesting two non-core businesses, Spa/Bath and National Pool Tile, we strengthened our portfolio in 2008. We are now in a better position to focus our investments and resources on core businesses going forward. Foundation funds programs that promote education, environmental conservation, vocational readiness, self- suffi ciency and general well-being. For us, Winning Right — our internal mantra — encompasses supporting the communities in which we operate. We also continue to invest in improving our cost structure. Over the past few years, we’ve opened or expanded facilities in India, China, Poland and Mexico to leverage best-cost locations in growing regions. In higher-cost regions, we took action early in 2008 to brace for the economic turmoil and better position our cost structure for the long-term. By the end of 2009, we will have closed 17 facilities when compared to the beginning of 2008. This will enable Pentair to remain competitive as we invest for future growth. Global Citizenship At Pentair, we believe being a good global citizen makes good business sense, which is why we created a Citizenship Council. This council will examine and monitor our citizenship practices and policies around the world in governance, environment, health and safety and in employee and community relations. It’s already produced Pentair’s fi rst Global Citizenship Report, which defi nes our company wide goals and the metrics that will be used to measure our progress against our aspirations. The full document is available at www.pentair.com. Among the most visible aspects of Pentair’s community support is The Pentair Foundation. Established in 1998 to formalize the company’s tradition of community support, the Foundation is funded through our commitment to dedicate two percent of our annual pre-tax income to charitable efforts. The Foundation makes tangible our approach to community support, enriching and advancing comm- unities in which we operate so that these areas benefi t from Pentair’s presence. Through local councils, the Realistic about our Situation. Focused to Emerge Stronger. I am excited about our future. We’re realistic about the circumstances our global businesses face and we’re focused on getting through it even stronger. We continue to improve every day by focusing on our customers, employees and shareholders. Leveraging PIMS, we will build on our solid track record of productivity, will meet and exceed our customers’ high expectations and will deliver solid fi nancial results. Our global business units are poised to more effectively deploy our best resources to our most attractive opportunities in order to seize growth in key markets. We know the current environment is tough, but we are up for the challenge. The markets we serve — water and technology — are attractive. And the need for our products and solutions continues to grow. With our realistic and focused determination, we will continue to demonstrate strong leadership in 2009 and beyond. Sincerely, Randall J.

2008 8 Positively Impacting the World Roughly 70 percent of the earth’s surface is water but less than half of one percent of that is accessible fresh water.1 At Pentair, we know we’re lucky. Not only do we work among a global community of talented and dedicated professionals; we also work toward compelling solutions for some of today’s most pressing needs. Social and economic development depends on the availability of clean, sustainable water and energy resources. Global trends indicate the continued need for solutions to address the world’s water crises, including environmental and global warming trends, industrialization and development of new regions of the world, as well as compelling new thinking about desalination technologies and greater effi ciency in water re-use. With the continually expanding use of electronic and electrical devices, the need to protect these devices is also amplifi ed, resulting in a heavy increase in demand for our technical products. This is why much of Pentair’s technology is focused on helping tap into new water sources, including seawater, ground and surface water. Our new high-effi ciency reverse osmosis pumps for seawater and brackish water are leading the way to reducing the energy required for desalination. Pentair’s Aqualine fi ltration systems offer high- effi ciency pre-treatment fi ltering and reverse osmosis pump technologies for desalination plants. The Aqualine solution offers the combined advantages of lowering capital costs for desalination plants by 50 percent, increasing fi lter life by 40 percent, and reducing the environmental footprint by 40 percent. Pentair’s residential fi ltration solutions are focused on helping individuals control their own water quality. From Pentair Residential Filtration’s Homespring product line (a point-of-entry water solution which removes bacteria and viruses) to the Everpure residential system at point-of-use to future growth opportunities in residentially based recycling, Pentair’s research and development team is focused on creating solutions for markets where access to safe, clean water is limited. Pentair’s fi ltration systems also help to improve the quality, taste and appearance of water used for food and beverage preparation worldwide. Ever wonder how a cup of coffee at your favorite coffee shop chain tastes the same in Seattle and in Shanghai? Because coffee is 95 percent water. And fi ltered water — regardless of the source — produces predictably great tasting coffee. Pentair’s Everpure fi ltration systems not only remove harmful particles and contaminants; they also produce great tasting water and reduce water equipment maintenance costs and downtime in coffee shops around the world. Everpure systems are tested and certifi ed to the highest standards by NSF International, which sets industry standards for water fi ltration systems. NSF International has tested and certifi ed Everpure precoat fi lters with its highest ratings for meeting strict guidelines for health and aesthetic qualities. 1.

And as a leader in the water treatment industry, Pentair supports the need for all drinking water options. However, when it comes to our environmental goals, we’ve promised to reduce the waste we generate. Which is why, in September of 2008, we enacted a company policy to eliminate the use of bottled water at all Pentair facilities worldwide. We’re committed to providing employees with premium, fi ltered water and, at the same time, signifi cantly decrease the waste that bottled water creates. Already more than half of our facilities have made this switch by installing our own Everpure water fi ltration systems. Everpure systems fi lter tap water to provide high-quality, great-tasting pure water. And that reduces the number of plastic bottles that end up in landfi lls. Through this initiative, Pentair advances our environmental stewardship commitment — and saves money. Pentair’s conversion plan will result in less waste generated each year. To put that potential savings into perspective, consider this: Tap water costs approximately $2 per 1,000 gallons. A quart bottle of water costs approximately $1, which adds up to $4,000 for 1,000 gallons of bottled water! That means bottled water can cost as much as 2,000 times tap water. Carrying this commitment even further, an Everpure discount program encourages Pentair employees to reduce their personal use of bottled water away from work, too. In exchange, they enjoy the benefi ts of our commercial grade products in their homes. improving every day Pentair Annual Report 2008 10 Improving Lives Every Day Project SafeWater—Colon, Honduras facilities, exceeding the global average. Many people are forced to drink water so muddied with contaminants that it’s dubbed “chocolate water.” This shocking reality is one reason that the Pentair Foundation is supporting research for Project SafeWater—Colon. In addition to education and community-focused programs, the Pentair Foundation seeks to create solutions to the world’s water crisis, consistent with our environmental and business objectives. As a fi rst step in this effort, the Pentair Foundation partnered with Water Missions International and the United States Centers for Disease Control in 2007 to demonstrate that the world’s water crisis can be addressed in a cost-effective, sustainable manner. The approach of Project SafeWater—Colon mirrors our own approach to solutions: innovative engineering practices combined with a knowledgeable and respectful engagement of the customer (in this case, the people in each community). This is a multi-phased, multi-year approach, creating quick-to-install, cost-effective, sustainable solutions to the water crisis. Solutions that work. Already, less than one year since launch, ten communities have new water treatment systems installed, producing clean water for residents. Community leaders have been educated about the importance of safe, clean water and the connection between that and hygiene practices. Community education programs are being launched in some parts of the region to help ensure that families understand the importance of consistent hygiene practices for children. Latrines are also being built to support these practices. Project SafeWater—Colon is a marquee program of the Pentair Foundation. You can read project updates as each new milestone is reached at www.pentair.com. One billion people around the world, most of them poor, lack access to safe water. According to the World Health Organization, 25,000 people die every day from preventable water-borne diseases. In Colon, Honduras, it is estimated that 34 percent of the region’s 250,000 people lack access to safe water and 43 percent lack access to sanitation improving every day Pentair Annual Report 2008 11 Leadership & Code of Conduct Board Members Leslie Abi-Karam Executive Vice President and President of Mailing Solutions Management of Pitney Bowes Inc.; Director since 2008 Glynis A.
