(1) The number of underlying securities is based on the stock fund balance on October 6, 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 an October 6, 2015 stock fund price of $43.05 per share.
(2) Each unit of phantom stock is the economic equivalent of one share of Johnson Controls common stock.
(3) 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.
(4) The balance includes 3442.125 phantom stock units acquired via dividend reinvestment on January 5, April 2, July 2, and October 2, 2015 at prices ranging from $42.33 to $50.16 per unit.
(5) Fifty percent of the options become exercisable two years after the grant date; the remaining 50%, three years after grant date.
