Halperin, deceased, (viii) Phyllis Hollander, as Successor Trustee under Declaration of Trust dated July 8, 1996, a formerly revocable trust (“Halperin Trust”); (ix) The Northern Trust Company, individually and as the personal representative of the Estate of Ronald C. Katz, deceased; (x) Aimee Katz, individually and with April Jalazo, the seat holders of the voting committees with the power to direct DYN, New VBA and KVST (each, a “Voting Committee” and collectively, the “Voting Committees”), (xi) April Jalazo, individually and with Aimee Katz, the seat holders of the Voting Committees, (xii) Patricia A. Bauer, individually and as the Special Assets Director with the power to direct KTP, and (xiii) the Estate of Ronald C. Katz, deceased (each individually, a “Reporting Person”, and collectively, the “Reporting Persons”), related to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 12, 2022 (the “Original Schedule 13D” and, together with Amendment No. 1, the “Schedule 13D”). Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 1 does not modify any of the information previously provided in the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 1 shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Original Schedule 13D.

 

This Amendment No. 1 is being filed to report the following matters: (1) on September 19, 2022, Errol R. Halperin, the former trustee of DYN and former Trustee of the Halperin Trust, died, (2) on October 19, 2022, Ronald C. Katz, the former trustee of KVST, died, (3) following the deaths of Errol R. Halperin and Ronald C. Katz, the Voting Proxies terminated, (4) as described in the Original Schedule 13D, following the Merger, certain additional shares of Common Stock held in escrow were transferred to certain of the Reporting Persons, as further described in Item 5, (5) as further discussed in Item 5, during the period April 5, 2024 to July 2, 2024, Ice Mountain sold an aggregate of 1,594,768 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, (6) as further discussed in Item 5, during the period January 1, 2024 to January 5, 2024, the Halperin Trust disposed of 923,804 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, (7) the Estate of Errol R. Halperin, deceased, transferred all of its 17,029 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer to the Halperin Trust on January 3, 2024, and (8) April Katz is now known as April Jalazo.

 

As a result of his death, (1) Errol R. Halperin’s former individual interest in the Common Stock of the Issuer, was held by his estate, which is currently in probate, and all of the Common Stock of the Issuer held by the Estate of Errol R. Halperin, deceased, was subsequently transferred to the Halperin Trust, (2) Phyllis Hollander was appointed as the Successor Trustee to the Halperin Trust, and (3) Errol R. Halperin’s former interest in the Common Stock of the Issuer as the trustee of DYN is now controlled by Aimee Katz and April Jalazo, the seat holders of the DYN Voting Committee. As a result, the Estate of Errol R. Halperin, deceased, and the Halperin Trust each beneficially owns less than 5% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Stock.

 

As a result of his death, (1) Ronald C. Katz’s former individual interest in the Common Stock of the Issuer is now held by his estate, which is currently in probate, and The Northern Trust Company was appointed as the personal representative of Ronald C. Katz’s estate, (2) Ronald C. Katz’s former interest in the Common Stock of the Issuer as a result of his being the trustee of KVST and the recipient of the Voting Proxies with respect to Ice Mountain and New VBA is now controlled by Aimee Katz and April Jalazo, the seat holders of the Voting Committees, and (3) Ronald C. Katz’s former interest in the Common Stock of the Issuer as a result of his being the recipient of the Voting Proxy with respect to KTP is now controlled by Patricia A. Bauer as the Special Assets Director of KTP. As a result, the Estate of Ronald C. Katz, deceased, beneficially owns less than 5% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Stock.

 

As further discussed in Item 5, this Amendment No. 1 constitutes an exit filing for KTP, Patricia A. Bauer, the Estate of Errol R. Halperin, deceased, the Halperin Trust, the Estate of Ronald C. Katz, deceased, and The Northern Trust Company.

Voting and investment power with respect to the shares of Common Stock directly owned by KTP may be deemed to be shared by Patricia A. Bauer as the Special Assets Director of KTP. Therefore, Patricia A. Bauer may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 71,684 shares of Common Stock, consisting of the 71,452 shares of Common Stock directly held by KTP and the 232 shares of Common Stock she directly holds, representing approximately 0.04% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding as of July 26, 2024.

 

Voting and investment power with respect to the shares of Common Stock directly owned by the Estate of Ronald C. Katz, deceased, may be deemed to be shared by The Northern Trust Company as the personal representative of the Estate of Ronald C. Katz, deceased. Therefore, The Northern Trust Company may be deemed to beneficially own 7,467 shares of Common Stock, representing 0.01% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding as of July 26, 2024.
