Item 5 is amended by deleting Item 5 of the Schedule 13D and replacing it with the following:
 
(a) As of March 30, 2014, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned, in the aggregate 17,901,535 Shares, representing approximately 6.44% of the Issuer’s outstanding Shares (calculated based on 278,035,707 ordinary shares outstanding as of February 3, 2014, as reported in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 (the “Form 10-K”)).  Such Shares include an aggregate of 12,656,770 Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons through direct ownership of the Shares representing approximately 4.55% of the Issuer’s outstanding Shares, and an additional 5,244,765 Shares underlying the Options that are held by Trian Onshore, Trian Offshore and TPSIF representing approximately 1.89% of the Issuer’s outstanding Shares.

As such, Holdco may be deemed to have shared voting power and dispositive power with regard to, and therefore may be deemed to beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3), the Shares that Trian Onshore, Trian Offshore, Parallel Fund I, Trian ERISA, TPSIF, SPV VI and SPV VI-A contributed to it pursuant to the Contribution Agreement.  Strategic Fund-A and Coinvest Fund-A continue to beneficially and directly own and have sole voting power and sole dispositive power of 1,143,490 and 1,062,228 Shares, respectively, and each of Trian Onshore, Trian Offshore and TPSIF continue to directly and beneficially own 365,253, 4,032,549 and 846,963 Shares, respectively, underlying the Options held by each such entity, in each case except to the extent that other Reporting Persons may be deemed to have shared voting power and dispositive power with regard to such Shares.  Mr. Peltz beneficially owns and has sole voting power and sole dispositive power with regard to 2,382 Director Shares, except in each case, to the extent that other members of the Trian Group as described below may be deemed to have shared voting power and shared dispositive power with regard to such Director’s Shares.   To the extent that other Reporting Persons may be deemed to have shared voting power and shared dispositive power with regard to any of the Shares, such information is set forth below.
 
Each of Trian Management, Trian Management GP, Nelson Peltz, Peter W. May and Edward P. Garden, by virtue of their relationships to Trian Onshore, Trian Offshore, Parallel Fund I, Trian ERISA, TPSIF, Strategic Fund-A, Coinvest Fund-A, SPV VI, SPV VI-A and Holdco (discussed in Item 2), may be deemed to have shared voting power and shared dispositive power with regard to, and therefore may be deemed to beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3), the Shares (including Shares underlying the Options) that Trian Onshore, Trian Offshore, Parallel Fund I, Trian ERISA, TPSIF, Strategic Fund-A, Coinvest Fund-A, SPV VI,  SPV VI-A and Holdco directly and beneficially own.  Each of Trian Management, Trian Management GP, Nelson Peltz, Peter W.

Each of Trian Management, Trian Management GP, Peter W. May and Edward P. Garden, by virtue of the agreement between Trian Management and Nelson Peltz (discussed in Item 6), may be deemed to have shared voting power and shared dispositive power with regard to, and therefore may be deemed to beneficially own (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3), the Director Shares that Nelson Peltz directly and beneficially owns. Each of Trian Management, Trian Management GP, Peter W. May and Edward P. Garden disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares for all other purposes.
 
CalSTRS has the sole power to vote or direct the vote of 676,712 Shares (the “CalSTRS Shares”) and the sole power to dispose of or direct the disposition of 505,354 of the CalSTRS Shares.  With respect to the other 171,358 CalSTRS Shares, the power to dispose or to direct the disposition of such Shares is shared with certain of its external managers, as follows: (i) 98,650 CalSTRS Shares with BlackRock Institutional Trust Company, N.A, (ii) 66,138 CalSTRS Shares with State Street Bank and Trust Company, (iii) 1,300 CalSTRS Shares with OakBrook Investments, LLC and (iv) 5,270 CalSTRS Shares with Light Green Advisors.

("BTC") that its principal business is to provide diversified investment management and securities lending services to institutional clients, intermediary and individual investors through various investment vehicles and that its business address is 400 Howard Street, San Francisco, CA 94105. In addition, BTC has further informed CalSTRS that on January 20, 2012, BTC entered into an Offer of Settlement (the "Agreement") with the CFTC and consented to the entry of an Order, which makes findings and imposes remedial sanctions against BTC.  Without admitting or denying wrongdoing, BTC agreed to the imposition of a $250,000 penalty and the entry of the Order to resolve allegations by the CFTC that two trades by BTC violated Section 4c(a)(1) of the Commodity Exchange Act and CFTC Regulation 1.38(a).   BTC also agreed to refrain from any further violations of the above-mentioned statutory provisions.  The CFTC did not allege, nor find, that any clients of BTC or any related affiliate were harmed in any way.  In the previous five years BTC has not been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) nor (ii) a party to any other civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, and as a result of such proceeding, was or is the subject to a judgment, decree or final order (with the exception of the Agreement) enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
 
CalSTRS has been informed by State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") that its principal business is to provide a broad range of financial products and services to institutional investors worldwide, including its transition management services.  Its principal business address is 1 Lincoln Street, Boston, MA 02111.  CalSTRS has been further informed by State Street that on February 4, 2010, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission issued an administrative order in which it ordered State Street to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations, and any future violations of Section 17(a)(2) and Section 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933.  In connection with the same matter, the Massachusetts Secretary of State issued a consent order in which it ordered State Street to cease and desist from violations of the Massachusetts Uniform Securities Act.  The orders were entered in connection with the resolution of an investigation into losses incurred by and disclosures made around certain active fixed-income strategies managed by State Street Global Advisors (SSgA), a division of State Street, during 2007 and earlier periods.  In addition, in conjunction with a February 2012 settlement of an investigation of SSgA's role as collateral manager for Carina CDO, Ltd., the Massachusetts Secretary of State issued a consent order finding that SSgA had failed to disclose certain material information to investors in the CDO in violation of MGL c. 110A, Sec. 101(2) and 101(3).  SSgA neither admitted nor denied the findings.  In connection with the settlement SSgA paid a civil fine.  SSgA was ordered to cease and desist from violations of the Massachusetts Uniform Securities Act.  In January 2014, in conjunction with a settlement of the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority’s investigation into our having charged six clients of our U.K. transition management business during 2010 and 2011 amounts in excess of the contractual terms, State Street Bank Europe Ltd. and State Street Global Markets International Ltd. paid a fine of £22.9 million, or approximately $37.8 million. Other than the foregoing, during the last five years, State Street has not been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) or (ii) a party to any other civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, and as a result of such proceeding, was or is the subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
 
CalSTRS has been informed by OakBrook Investments, LLC ("OakBrook") that its principal business is Institutional Investment Management and that its business address is 2300 Cabot Dr., Suite 300, Lisle, IL 60532. During the last five years, OakBrook has not been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) or (ii) a party to any other civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, and as a result of such proceeding, was or is the subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
 
CalSTRS has been informed by Light Green Advisors ("LGA") that its principal business is asset management and that its business address is 405 Lexington Avenue, 26th floor, New York, NY 10174.  During the last five years, Light Green Advisors has not been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) or (ii) a party to any other civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, and as a result of such proceeding, was or is the subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
 
 The Trian Group does not have the right to vote or dispose of any of the CalSTRS Shares, nor is any member of the Trian Group a party to any contracts, arrangements or understandings with respect to such Shares.  As a result, each member of the Trian Group disclaims beneficial ownership of the CalSTRS Shares for all purposes.
 
(c) On February 25, 2014, Mr. Peltz received the Director Shares.  The Trian Group did not engage in any other transactions with respect to the Shares during the past 60 days.
 
Schedule A hereto (which is incorporated by reference in this Item 5 as if restated in full herein) sets forth all transactions with respect to the Shares effected during the past 60 days by CalSTRS, inclusive of all transactions effected through March 30, 2014.
 
 (d) No person other than the Trian Group is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Shares beneficially owned by the Trian Group.  Except with respect to the 171,358 CalSTRS Shares it beneficially owned in accounts managed by external managers as disclosed in (b) above, no other person is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Shares covered by this statement beneficially owned by CalSTRS.

Mr. Michael W. Lamach
Chairman, President and CEO
Ingersoll-Rand plc
800-E Beaty Street
Davidson, NC 28035


Dear Mike:

Due to my other board commitments, including my recent appointment to the board of Mondelẽz International, Inc., I have decided not to stand for re-election as a director at Ingersoll-Rand’s 2014 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.  As you know, investment funds managed by Trian continue to be a large shareholder of Ingersoll-Rand and we are all very pleased with the company’s significant progress since 2012, as well as its plans to enhance long-term shareholder value.  On a personal note, I have enjoyed my time on the IR Board and the opportunity to work constructively and collegially with you and the rest of the Board.

I wish you and the Board all the best.

Very truly yours,
 
                        
                         /s/Nelson Peltz

Dear Nelson:

In connection with the investment in Ingersoll-Rand PLC (“IR”) by funds managed by Trian Fund Management, L.P. (“Trian”), you were designated by Trian and appointed by the Board of Directors of IR (the “Board”) to serve on the Board.

We understand that, consistent with its practices, IR will be awarding to you, as a director of IR, equity compensation in the form of restricted stock units (“Shares”) that vest on the earlier of: (i) the first anniversary of the grant date or (ii) upon your separation from service with the Board.   This is to confirm our prior understanding that you are authorized to accept such Shares in your individual capacity on behalf of Trian upon the terms and conditions of this letter, including your agreement that, as long as you are an officer of Trian and for a period of six months and one day thereafter, you will follow the direction of Trian with respect to (x) the Transfer (as defined below) of any such Shares and (y) the Transfer of any other securities (including, without limitation, common stock and stock options) of IR (or Shares issuable in exchange for, or upon exercise of, such securities) that you may receive as a director of IR (“Other Securities”).  You further agree that (i) you will request that IR deliver all Shares directly to an account designated by Trian and (ii) you will not dispose of, transfer, sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or encumber (collectively, “Transfer”) any Shares or Other Securities, without Trian’s prior written consent, which may be withheld in Trian's sole discretion.  Upon any Transfer of all or a portion of the Shares or Other Securities, Trian shall be entitled to receive the consideration received as a result of such Transfer (the “Equity Consideration”).

Trian agrees to indemnify you against any tax imposed on income to you, net of any corresponding deduction to which you are entitled as a result of the transfer of the Equity Consideration to Trian.  Such indemnification shall include all taxes imposed on a tax indemnification payment and shall apply to income reported by either IR or Trian.  For purposes of this letter agreement, taxes shall include any penalties, interest or additions to tax imposed upon you with respect to taxes.

This letter agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State.

This letter shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs and estates.

If the above is acceptable to you, please indicate your agreement by signing the enclosed duplicate copy of this letter agreement in the space indicated below.

Very truly yours,
