Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 5(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 January 23, 2013. 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 January 23, 2013 stock fund price of $30.73 per share.
(2) The restricted stock units accrue under the Johnson Controls Restricted Stock Plan. The balance includes phantom stock and dividend equivalent units that settle 100% in cash and relate to restricted stock awards.
(3) Each share of phantom stock is the economic equivalent of one share of Johnson Controls common stock.
(4) Fifty percent of the options vest after two years and the remaining 50% vests after three years.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, See Instruction 6 for procedure.
