Explanation of Responses:

( 1 )The balance includes 443.36 shares acquired via dividen reinvestment on July 2, 2015 at $49.44 per share. ( 2 )The number of underlying securities is based on the stock fund balance on September 29, 2015. 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 September 29, 2015 stock fund price of $39.80 per share. ( 3 )Each unit of phantom stock is the economic equivalent of one share of Johnson Controls common stock. ( 4 )The phantom stock units accrue under the Johnson Controls Restricted Stock Plan and settle 100% in cash upon the reporting person's termination or retirement, subject to vesting requirements.
