Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) The number of underlying securities is based on the stock fund balance on March 16, 2009. The actual number of shares issuable upon the distribution date is not determinable since the stock fund is a unitized account consisting of 96% company stock and 4% money market fund. The stock account balance reflected in this report is based on a March 16, 2009, stock fund price of $9.64 per share.
(2) The 6.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2012 are convertible at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding September 30, 2012. The conversion rate for the notes is initially 89.3855 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes (equal to a conversion price of approximately $11.19 per share of common stock), subject to adjustment, pursuant to the terms of the notes.
(3) Each Corporate Unit consists of a purchase contract and a 5% undivided beneficial ownership interest in a $1,000 principal amount of the issuer's 11.50% Subordinated Notes Due 2042.
(4) The purchase contract obligates the reporting person to purchase, and obligates the issuer to sell, on March 31, 2012, for $50 in cash, a number of newly issued shares of common stock equal to the "settlement rate." The settlement rate is calculated as follows: (a) if the applicable market value of the common stock is equal to or greater than $10.29 (the "threshold appreciation price"), the settlement rate will be 4.8579 shares of common stock; (b) if the applicable market value of the common stock is less than the threshold appreciation price but greater than $8.95 (the "reference price"), the settlement rate will be a number of shares of common stock equal to $50 divided by the applicable market value; and (c) if the applicable market value of our common stock is less than or equal to the reference price, the settlement rate will be 5.5866 shares of common stock.
(5) The "applicable market value" of the common stock means the average of the closing price per share of the common stock on each of the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the third trading day immediately preceding the purchase contract settlement date. Under certain circumstances, the reporting person may have the right to settle the purchase contract in cash prior to the purchase contract settlement date.
(6) Each share of phantom stock is the economic equivalent of one share of Johnson Controls common stock. The restricted stock units were awarded under the Johnson Controls Executive Deferred Restricted Plan and are to be settled 100% in cash upon the reporting person's termination of employment with the company, subject to vesting provisions.
(7) Includes 62.48 phantom stock units acquired through the reinvestment of dividends on January 5, 2009, at a price of $19.04 per phantom stock unit.
(8) Fifty percent of the option vests after two years and the remaining fifty percent after three years.
