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 October 1, 2008. 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 October 1, 2008, stock fund price of $28.79 per share.
(2)	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.
(3)	Award of a restricted stock grant. Fifty percent vests in two years and the blanace after four years, contingent upon continued employment with the company. Reporting person elected to defer receipt.
(4)	Includes 107.973 phantom stock units acquired through the reinvestment of dividends on January 2, April 2 and July 3, 2008, at prices ranging from $28.62 - $35.18 per phantom stock unit.
(5)	Fifty percent of the option vests after two years and the remaining fifty percent after three years.
