FULL AND FINAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS

This Full and Final Release of Claims (“Agreement”) is made and entered into between Robert G. Leggett (“Executive”) and Mueller Water Products, Inc. (“Employer” or “MWP”).

1.TERMINATION AND SEVERANCE BENEFITS.

(a)     Executive's employment with MWP is hereby terminated effective September 30, 2011 (“Separation Date”) pursuant to Article I Section 5 of the Employment Agreement entered into between the parties on September 15, 2008 and as amended on February 6, 2009, and December 1, 2009 (“Employment Agreement”), resulting in a “Separation from Service” as defined in Treasury regulations promulgated under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. In consideration of Executive's decision to enter into this Agreement, Employer shall provide Executive the Severance Benefits (as defined in the Employment Agreement). If Executive fails or refuses to execute this Agreement or if Executive revokes this Agreement as set forth herein, Executive shall not receive the Severance Benefits.

(b)    Executive will be eligible for any bonuses set forth in the Employment Agreement for the fiscal year 2011 notwithstanding the requirement that Executive be employed at the time the bonus is paid, subject to the approval of such bonus by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee, in the same manner and to the same extent as similarly situated executives of MWP. Management of MWP will propose that Executive be paid at target for personal goals as set forth in the Employment Agreement for the fiscal year 2011. Subject to the approval of such bonus by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee, such bonus, if any, will be paid at the same time as the bonuses are paid to other executives of MWP.

(c)    Employer shall provide Executive with outplacement services pursuant to Challenger, Gray & Christmas, Inc.'s executive program agreement with MWP for twelve months beginning on the date hereof.

(d)    Employer shall reimburse Executive for the legal fees incurred on or before December 31, 2011 in connection with this Agreement, up to a maximum of $3,500.00.

(e)    Whether or not Executive executes this Agreement, the Employer will pay Executive any and all wages for all hours worked up to and through the Separation Date, within the appropriate time frame required by applicable law, and unused vacation which has accrued as of the Separation Date and which remains unpaid, as soon as administratively feasible following the Separation Date. Federal, state and local tax withholdings may be applied to the Severance Benefits as determined by Employer in its sole discretion. Voluntary deductions shall not be made from the payments made from the above payments as determined by the Employer in its sole discretion.

(f)    That certain Executive Change-in-Control Severance Agreement between the Executive and Employer dated as of September 15, 2008 is hereby terminated without any benefit obligations becoming due and owing thereunder.

2.FULL AND FINAL RELEASE.

(a) In consideration of Severance Benefits and the payments and other consideration being provided to Executive pursuant hereto, Executive, for himself, his attorneys, heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, fully, finally and forever releases and discharges Employer, all parent, subsidiary and/or affiliated companies, as well as its and their successors, assigns, officers, owners, directors, agents, representatives, attorneys, and employees (all of whom are referred to throughout this Agreement as “MWP” or “Employer”), of and from all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, suits, damages, losses, and expenses, of any and every nature whatsoever, as a result of actions or omissions occurring through the date Executive signs this Agreement. Specifically included in this waiver and release are, among other things, any and all claims related to any severance pay plan, any and all claims related to Executive's employment and separation from employment or otherwise, including without limitation: (1) Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended by the Civil Rights Act of 1991, (race, color, religion, sex, and national origin discrimination); (2) the Americans with Disabilities Act, as amended (disability discrimination); (3) 42 U.S.C. § 1981 (discrimination); (4) the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (29 U.S.C. §§ 621-624); (5) 29 U.S.C. § 206(d)(1) (equal pay); (6) Executive Order 11246 (race, color, religion, sex and national origin discrimination); (7) Executive Order 11141 (age discrimination); (8) Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (disability discrimination); (9) Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA); (10) the Occupational Safety and Health Act; (11) the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act; (12) the Family and Medical Leave Act; (13) the Ledbetter Fair Pay Act; and (14) other federal, state and local discrimination laws, including those of the State(s) in which Executive worked and/or resided.

(b)    Nothing in this Agreement, however, is intended to waive Executive's entitlement to vested benefits under any 401(k) plan or other benefit plan provided by MWP. Furthermore, the parties specifically agree that this release does not cover, and Executive expressly reserves, indemnification and defense rights existing to him as a current or former director and/or officer of MWP under the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws of MWP, pursuant to applicable state law or in accordance with any applicable Directors and Officers insurance policy existing for former officers and directors of MWP.
