Item 8.01.  Other Events.

On October 13, 2011, Watts Water Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a settlement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC”) to resolve allegations concerning potential violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) at Watts Valve Changsha Co., Ltd., (“CWV”), a former indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company in China.  Under the terms of the settlement, without admitting or denying the SEC’s allegations, the Company consented to entry of an administrative cease-and-desist order under the books and records and internal controls provisions of the FCPA.  The Company has also agreed to pay to the SEC $3.6 million in disgorgement and prejudgment interest, and $200,000 in penalties.

As previously disclosed, the Company received information in July 2009 regarding possible improper payments to foreign government officials by employees of CWV.  The Company promptly conducted an investigation utilizing outside counsel and voluntarily disclosed this matter to the United States Department of Justice and the SEC.  The settlement reflects the SEC’s recognition of the Company’s voluntary self-reporting and full cooperation with the SEC’s investigation, and its subsequent remedial actions.

The amounts to be paid by the Company in connection with the settlement have been fully accrued by the Company as of April 4, 2010.  The Company anticipates that this settlement resolves all government investigations concerning CWV’s sales practices and potential FCPA violations.
