Item 5.04 Temporary Suspension of Trading Under Registrant’s Employee Benefit Plans.

On May 15, 2008, Trane Inc. (the “Company”) received notice from the trustee/administrator of the Trane Inc. Savings Plan and the Trane Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan informing the Company that activity in the Company stock funds under these plans (the “Stock Funds”) will be closed temporarily to any transactions, including participant transactions. The blackout period is expected to begin during the week of June 2, 2008 and end during the week of June 9, 2008.

The blackout period is being implemented in connection with the anticipated effective time of the merger (the “Merger”) involving the Company and Ingersoll-Rand Company Limited. The blackout period is necessary to ensure that all Company common stock transactions in the Stock Funds are fully completed before the effective time of the Merger and so that, after the effective time of the Merger, the administrator of the plans can process the exchange of Company common stock for Ingersoll-Rand Company Limited common stock and cash. On May 19, 2008, the Company sent a notice to its directors and executive officers informing them that during the blackout period, pursuant to Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, they will be generally unable to trade in Company common stock acquired in connection with their service to the Company.

Information about the blackout period may be obtained, without charge by contacting Mark Cresitello by telephone at (732) 980-6000 or in writing at P.O. Box 6820, One Centennial Avenue, Piscataway, NJ 08855.

A copy of the notice provided to the Company’s directors and executive officers is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
