Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On February 11, 2025, Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) by and among the Company, Ice Mountain LLC (the “Selling Stockholder”), and Evercore Group L.L.C. as representative of the several underwriters listed in Schedule A thereto (collectively, the “Underwriters”), for the sale of 7,750,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”), by the Selling Stockholder. The offering was made under the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-284835) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Registration Statement”). The Selling Stockholder granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,162,500 shares of Common Stock, which option was exercised on February 12, 2025. The Company repurchased from the Underwriters 1,636,905 of such shares of Common Stock at a price per share equal to the price per share paid by the Underwriters to the Selling Stockholder in the offering. The offering closed on February 13, 2025. Pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company and the Selling Stockholder have agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make because of any of those liabilities.

The Company did not sell any shares in the Offering and did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder in the Offering.
