forfeiture of Company Matching Contributions occurring during a Plan Year shall be used to reduce Company Matching Contributions for such Plan Year. 


2.070 Rules Concerning Matching Contributions.

 ARTICLE III: CONTRIBUTION LIMITATIONS 

3.010 Limitations on Employee Pre-tax Contributions. 
  

	(a)	The aggregate amount in any calendar year of all of a Participant’s: 

  

	 	(1)	Basic and Supplemental Pre-tax Contributions to this Plan; and 

  

	 	(2)	elective deferrals under any other cash or deferred arrangement (as defined in PR Code §1165(e)). 


may not exceed Nine Thousand Dollars ($9,000.00), or such larger sum as may be in effect under PR Code §1165(e)(7). 

 

	(b)	Prior to the beginning of, and periodically during, each Plan Year, the Plan Administrator will cause a test to be conducted of Pre-tax Contribution elections under Sections 2.020(a) and 2.030(a) in order to determine
whether the Average Pre-tax Contribution Percentage for the Highly Compensated Employee Group exceeds the Pre-tax Contribution Percentage Limit. If it is determined that the Pre-tax Contributions made for any Plan Year by the Highly Compensated
Employee Group would (if not reduced) cause the Average Pre-tax Contribution Percentage of that Group to exceed the Pre-tax Contribution Percentage Limit, the Plan Administrator will first reduce any Supplemental Pre-tax Contributions and then the
Basic Pre-tax Contributions elected by Participants in the Highly Compensated Employee Group, so that the Pre-tax Contribution Percentage Limit will not be exceeded for the Plan Year: 


 

	 	(1)	Such reduction will be effective as of the first payroll date in the month following such determination and will be made by first reducing the Pre-tax Contribution Accounts of Highly Compensated Employee Group
Participants who have the greatest dollar amount of Pre-tax Contributions (but not below the Highly Compensated Employee Group Participants with the next highest dollar amount of Pre-tax Contributions), and then, if necessary, reducing the Pre-tax
Contributions of the Highly Compensated Employee Group Participants with the next highest dollar amount of Pre-tax Contributions (including the Pre-tax Contributions of the Highly Compensated Employee Group Participants whose Pre-tax Contributions
have already been reduced by the Plan Administrator), and continuing in descending order until the Average Pre-tax Contribution Percentage for the Highly Compensated Employee Group satisfies the Pre-tax Contribution Limit. 


 

	 	(2)	 Such excess Pre-tax Contributions will be distributed to the affected Participants who are Highly Compensated Employee Group Participants as soon as
practicable after the end of such Plan Year and in all events prior the end of the next following Plan Year. Income allocable to such excess Pre-tax Contributions with respect to any Participant that are distributed in the next following Plan Year
shall equal the sum of the 



  
 -14- 

Plan 011 
 Effective January 1, 2009










	 	
allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year, and any allocable gain or loss for the period between the end of the Plan Year and the date of the corrective distribution (i.e., the “gap
period”). Income allocable to excess Pre-tax Contributions for the Plan Year and any gap period shall be calculated under any reasonable method as determined by the Plan Administrator, provided that such method is used for allocating income to
Participants’ Pre-tax Contribution Accounts and is used consistently for all Participants and for all corrective distributions under the Plan for the Plan Year. 


 

	(c)	Reductions in Basic or Supplemental Pre-tax Contributions pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section will continue until the Plan Administrator determines that changed circumstances permit a revision of such
Pre-tax Contributions, in which case the Plan Administrator will determine the amount by which such Pre-tax Contributions may be revised for the balance of the Plan Year. 


 

	(d)	In order to determine the amount of excess Pre-tax Contributions, if any, for the members of the Highly Compensated Employee Group, the Plan Administrator or his delegate will: 


 

	 	(1)	determine the “highly compensated employee” (as defined in PR Code §1165(e)(3)(E)(iii)) in the Group with the highest Pre-tax Contribution Percentage (i.e., the amount of such employee’s Pre-tax
Contributions in a particular Plan Year, divided by his Compensation for the Plan Year); 

  

	 	(2)	determine how much the said Percentage would have to be reduced to either satisfy the Average Pre-tax Contribution Percentage test under PR Code §1165(e)(3) or cause such Percentage to equal the Pre-tax
Contribution Percentage of the highly compensated employee with the next highest Percentage; and 

  

	 	(3)	repeat making the determination set forth in Paragraph (2) until such time as the Average Pre-tax Contribution Percentage test described in that Paragraph is satisfied. 


The amount of excess Pre-tax Contributions for the members of the Highly Compensated Employee Group is equal to the amount equal to the sum of the
hypothetical reductions described above, multiplied by such members’ Testing Compensation. 
  

	(e)	To the extent permitted by regulation, the Plan Administrator may during or following a Plan Year cause Supplemental or Basic Pre-tax Contributions made on behalf of Highly Compensated Employee Group Participants to be
recharacterized (on a uniform and non-discriminatory basis) as Supplemental or Basic After-tax Contributions to the extent necessary to prevent the Average Pre-tax Contribution Percentage for that Plan Year for those Participants from exceeding the
Pre-tax Contribution Percentage Limit. 


  
 -15- 

Plan 011 
 Effective January 1, 2009









 3.020 Limits for Catch-up Contributions. Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in the preceding
Section 3.010 or any other provision of this Plan, the aggregate amount of Catch-up Contributions for a given Plan Year of any Participant who, as of the end of a Plan Year, is at least age fifty (50), who intends to have Basic and Supplemental
Pre-tax Contributions made to the Plan during the Plan Year which could be in excess of the limit set forth in the said Section 3.010 and who has a Basic Pre-tax or After tax Contribution election of at least 1% in place, will be permitted to
elect to have Catch-up Contributions made on his behalf to the Plan in amounts totaling $1,000 or any other limit provided in Section 1165(e)(7)(C) of the PR Code. 

To the extent that any such Catch-up Contribution is in excess of the limits of this Section and, if not otherwise limited pursuant to any other provisions of
this Plan which are applicable to Participant Contributions or Company Matching Contributions, such excess will nevertheless be contributed to the Plan as an After-tax Contribution of such Participant. 

3.025 Qualified Nonelective Contributions. The Company may make qualified nonelective contributions on behalf of any Eligible Employee who is working
in Puerto Rico, in order to satisfy applicable requirements of the PR Code. Such contributions shall be fully vested at all times and shall be made in a manner that also complies with the PR Code. 

3.030 Incorporation by Reference. The limitations of PR Code Section 1165(e) are hereby incorporated by reference. Articles II and III of the Plan
set forth the basic requirements of PR Code §1165(e). In the event of any conflict between the provisions of these Articles II and III and the PR Code §1165(e), the provisions of the PR Code thereunder shall govern. The Plan also
incorporates by reference any subsequent PRTD guidance applicable under these PR Code provisions.

Administrator at the time the election or change is made by the Participant), and may be made at any time and will be effective as of the New York Stock Exchange closing immediately following the making of that election or change; provided, however,
if it is determined by the Plan Administrator or his delegate that an investment election made by a Participant is invalid or defective, such an invalid or defective election will be deemed to have been made in favor of the appropriate target
retirement Investment Fund based on such Participant’s date of birth. 

  

	(d)	The Account of any Participant who initially fails to make a valid investment election prior to becoming a participant in the Plan shall be invested in the appropriate target retirement Investment Fund based on such
Participant’s date of birth (or such other Investment Fund as selected by the Trustee or as directed by the Plan Administrator).

Plan’s Investment Funds (including the Rockwell Automation Stock Fund). 
 4.030 Transfers from the Rockwell Automation Stock Fund. A
Participant who is an Employee of the Company may elect to have some or all of his interest in the Rockwell Automation Stock Fund, regardless of a Participant’s years of Vesting Service. transferred to any Investment Fund. A Participant who is
no longer an Employee (including a Participant who is a Divested Business Employee) or a Beneficiary may not make any transfers into the Rockwell Automation Stock Fund.

Plan 011 
 Effective January 1, 2009









 4.050 General Transfer Rules and Limitations. The Fund transfers described in the preceding Sections will
be subject to the following limitations: 
  

	(a)	Any such transfer will be effected in dollar amounts or in increments of 1% of the value of the Participant’s interest in a transferring Fund, but in no event will any such transfer be in an amount less than Two
Hundred and Fifty Dollars ($250.00), except that if the balance of a Participant’s interest in a Fund is less than Two Hundred and Fifty Dollars ($250.00), the Participant may elect to have the entire balance of his interest in the Fund
transferred. 

  

	(b)	Transfer elections may be made at any time, but each such election by a Participant will be effective and be thereafter irrevocable as of the New York Stock Exchange closing immediately following the Participant’s
election. The elections may be made by means of any method (including any available telephonic or electronic method) which is acceptable to the Plan Administrator; provided, however, that, if it is determined by the Plan Administrator or his
delegate that an investment election made by a Participant is invalid or defective, the Participant’s election will, until duly corrected by him, be deemed to have not been made. 


4.060 Participant’s Accounts. Separate Participant Contribution, Rollover (if applicable) and Company Contribution Accounts will be established
and maintained by the Trustee to represent all amounts, adjusted for gains or losses thereon, which have been contributed by or on behalf of a Participant as Participant Contributions, Rollover Contributions and Company Matching Contributions. Such
separate Accounts must contain sufficient information to permit a determination of the dollar balance of the Participant’s Accounts at any time and to permit, with respect to the Rockwell Automation Stock Fund, a determination of the number of
equivalent shares of common stock held on the Participant’s behalf in such Fund. Each Contribution on behalf of a Participant to an Investment Fund or the Rockwell Automation Stock Fund and each payment made to a Participant from an Investment
Fund or the Rockwell Automation Stock Fund will result in a credit or charge to the Account representing the Participant’s interest in such Fund. In addition, dividend proceeds on Rockwell Automation common stock held in the Rockwell Automation
Stock Fund will be used for the purchase, when possible, of additional shares of Rockwell Automation common stock for the Fund, therefore, will result in appropriate adjustments to the balances in the said Fund and to the value of the
Participant’s interest in the said Fund. 
 4.070 Valuation and Participant Statements. As of each Valuation Date, an amount equal to the fair
market value of the Funds (other than dividends received which are attributable to whole shares of Rockwell Automation common stock which were or are to be transferred to Participant Accounts subsequent to the record date for such dividend) will be
determined by the Trustee in such manner and on such basis as it may deem appropriate. At least annually, but more frequently, if the Plan Administrator should so determine, the Trustee will forward by mail to

all purposes, be deemed to have been accepted as correct, unless the Plan Administrator (or the Trustee, as the case may be) is notified to the contrary by mail within ninety (90) days of the date on which it was mailed to the Participant.

will receive the entire vested balance of his Plan Account. In the case, however, of Retirement, a Participant who would otherwise receive a distribution pursuant to the preceding sentence may instead make an election pursuant to the terms of
Section 5.050. 
 5.030 [Reserved] 
 5.040 Form
of Distributions – Stock or Cash. Distributions made under this Article will be made to Participants and, when applicable, their Beneficiaries in the form of cash or common stock, or in a combination of cash and common stocks, pursuant to
subsections (a) and (b): 
  

	(a)	With respect to Investment Funds (other than the Rockwell Automation Stock Fund), a Participant will receive the entire balance of his Accounts in such Funds in cash. Such balance will be determined in the manner set
forth in Section 4.070, by reference to the value of the Participant’s interest on the date of such Participant’s Retirement, termination of employment or death. 


 

	(b)	With respect to the Rockwell Automation Stock Fund, the Participant will be permitted, if he should so elect, to receive the entire balance of his Accounts in such Fund in the manner described in the preceding
subsection or in shares, as applicable, of Rockwell Automation common stock equal in number to the maximum number of whole shares of common stock which could be purchased for the closing price of that common stock on that date (as such price is
documented on the New York Stock Exchange — Composite Transactions listing) or, in the event such date falls on a day on which for any reason there are no trades of such stock reflected on such listing, the next trading day subsequent
to that date. In addition, the Participant will be paid in cash for the value of any partial shares of the said common stock and the amount of any cash dividends received since that date which are attributable to the number of whole shares of common
stock distributed to him. 

 5.050 Payment Method for Distributions to Retiring Participants. Any Participant who is eligible for and
wishes to receive a distribution under Section 5.020 on account of his Retirement will make an election concerning the form of distribution and will provide such election to the Plan Administrator or the Plan Administrator’s delegate prior
to Retirement. The form of distributions such a Participant may elect will be in the form of either: 
  

	(a)	a lump sum payment, or

Plan 011 
 Effective January 1, 2009










	(b)	ten (10) or fewer annual installment payments, such installment payments to be equal to the value of the Participant’s Accounts as of the Valuation Date immediately preceding distribution, divided by the
number of installments remaining at the time of each payment. The initial installment payment will be made as soon as is practicable after the effective date of the Participant’s election, with subsequent payments during the elected installment
payment period to be made as of the annual anniversary date of the initial installment payment. 

 If a Participant who had previously Retired
and commenced receipt of installment payments pursuant to subsection (b) returns to employment with the Company or an Affiliated Company (except as a Flex Force Employee), such installment payments will be suspended until the Participant’s
subsequent retirement, at which time he would be permitted again to make the election described therein. 
 5.060 [Reserved]  

5.070 Participant’s Consent to Distribution of Benefits. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan to the contrary, if the aggregate value
of the vested and nonforfeitable Account balances of an individual who terminates his employment with the Company and is no longer a Plan Participant is One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) or less, the Plan Administrator will arrange such balances to
be consolidated and distributed to such Participant as soon as practicable following such termination pursuant to in the manner set forth in Section 5.020. 

If such vested and nonforfeitable amount is in excess of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00), no distribution of benefits under the Plan will be made, unless the
Plan Administrator or his delegate first obtains the Participant’s consent thereto. In the event such consent is not so obtained, the Participant’s Accounts will be retained by the Plan and will be maintained and valued in accordance with
Article IV. Distribution of the Participant’s Accounts pursuant to this Section will be made following the date on which the Participant’s consent to such distribution is obtained or, if earlier, the date on which the Participant dies, in
the manner provided under Sections 5.050 or 5.080 respectively. 
 5.075 Cashout Forfeitures and Repayments. In the case of a Participant who
receives a distribution pursuant to Article V upon his termination of participation in this Plan when he has less than three (3) years of Vesting Service, such Participant will, at the time of the distribution, forfeit any portion of his
Company Contribution Account which is not vested and nonforfeitable at the time of his termination of participation in the Plan. If such Participant should return to employment with the Company within five (5) years of the date of such
distribution and forfeiture, the said forfeiture will be restored, if he repays the amount previously distributed. The amount restored, upon repayment of the distribution pursuant to this Section, will be equal to the amount forfeited at the time of
the distribution, such amount to be unadjusted any gains or losses subsequent to the forfeiture and prior to the repayment.

Plan 011 
 Effective January 1, 2009









 Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan to the contrary, a Participant’s service with respect to
which he received a distribution under this Section or under Section 6.040 will not be affected or reduced for eligibility purposes or for determination of his years of Vesting Service under Section 5.010. 

5.080 Distributions to Beneficiaries. In the event of a Participant’s death, a distribution to the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be made as
follows: 
  

	(a)	A Non-spousal Beneficiary shall receive a lump-sum payment as soon as administratively practicable following the Participant’s death. 


 

	(b)	A Spousal Beneficiary shall continue to receive installment payments that the Participant elected pursuant to Section 5.050, if any, unless such spousal Beneficiary elects to receive the Participant’s
remaining Account balance in a lump sum payment at any time following the Participant’s death. 

 5.090 Transfer of Distribution
Directly to Eligible Retirement Plan. A Participant, a Participant’s spouse entitled to distribution as his Beneficiary pursuant to Article VII or a former spouse entitled to distribution pursuant to Section 9.120(a) or any individual
entitled to a distribution as a Beneficiary pursuant to Article VII may request in writing to have any portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the Participant in a direct rollover. The
following definitions shall apply for purposes of this Article 5.090: 
  

	(a)	“Eligible Retirement Plan.” An Eligible Retirement Plan is an individual retirement account described in Section 1169 of the PR Code, or a qualified trust described in Section 1165(a) of the PR Code
that accepts the Participant’s Eligible Rollover Distribution. In the case of an Eligible Rollover Distribution to a Beneficiary who is the Participant’s surviving spouse, an Eligible Retirement Plan is also an individual retirement
account or qualified trust described above; 

  

	(b)	“Eligible Rollover Distribution.” An Eligible Rollover Distribution is any distribution of all of the balance to the credit of the Participant within a single taxable year by reason of separation from service.


 Such request will be made, in the case of a Participant, at the time his consent to such distribution is given to the Plan Administrator
pursuant to Section 5.070, or at such later date as the Plan Administrator permits, or, in the case of the Participant’s spouse or former spouse, at such time as the Plan Administrator determines. Prior to effecting such a transfer the
Plan Administrator may require evidence reasonably satisfactory to him that the entity to which such transfer is to be made is in fact an Eligible Retirement Plan and that such Eligible Retirement Plan may receive the distribution in the forms
required under this Article.

 5.100 Uncashed Checks. If the Plan Administrator distributes the assets in a Participant’s Account
pursuant to this Article V and the distribution check is not cashed, a Participant will be entitled to request a new check. In such case, the amount of the new check will be equal to the amount of the original, uncashed distribution check and will
not be adjusted for earnings and losses.

	(b)	Any determination of the existence of a Hardship, the reasonable availability to the Participant of funds from other sources and the amount necessary to be withdrawn on account of such Hardship will be made on the basis
of all relevant facts and circumstances and in accordance with the provisions of this Section and Section 1.370, as applied in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner. Such determination may, if it is reasonable in light of all relevant and
known facts and circumstances, be based upon the Participant’s representation that the Hardship cannot be relieved: 

  

	 	(1)	through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise; 

  

	 	(2)	by reasonable liquidation of the Participant’s assets, to the extent that such liquidation would not itself cause an immediate and heavy financial need;

the date such withdrawal was received by the Participant. In addition, such Participant may not make Pre-Tax Contributions for such Participant’s taxable year immediately following the
taxable year of such withdrawal that is in excess of the applicable limit under Section 1165(e)(7)(A) of the PR Code for such immediately following taxable year less the amount of such Participant’s Pre-Tax Contributions for the taxable

Forfeitures and Suspensions. 
  

	(a)	Subject to the exception described in subsection (b), in the event that a Participant with less than three (3) years of Vesting Service makes a withdrawal under Section 6.010 with the result that his Basic
After-tax Contribution Account is the source of some or all of such withdrawal, the Participant will at that time forfeit the unvested portion of his Company Contribution Account which is attributable to the withdrawal. The forfeitable interest
which is attributable to the Participant’s Basic After-tax Contributions will be determined by multiplying the dollar balance of the Participant’s Company Contribution Account by a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the dollar
value of the Basic After-tax Contributions which were withdrawn by the Participant and the denominator of which is the total dollar value of his After-tax Contribution Account attributable to his Basic After-tax Contributions (both such dollar
values to be determined as of the date of the withdrawal).

not be applicable.

interest” (as defined in ERISA §3(14)) may apply for and receive a loan from the Plan, in an amount not exceeding the least of (a), (b), (c) or (d): 
  

	(a)	the aggregate of the balances in the borrower’s Pre-tax and After-tax Contribution Accounts and, if applicable, in the portion of his Account attributable to QNECs or in his Rollover Account; 


  
 -28- 

Plan 011 
 Effective January 1, 2009










	(b)	an amount which, when combined with all outstanding loans to the borrower from all other plans of all Affiliated Companies, equals Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00), reduced by the excess, if any, of


  

	 	(1)	the highest outstanding and unpaid balances of all prior loans to the borrower from the Plan and such other plans during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the date on which such loan is made, over


  

	 	(2)	the outstanding balance of any loan to the borrower from the Plan or such other plans on the date on which the loan is made; 

  

	(c)	one-half (1/2) of the aggregate of the balances of the borrower’s Accounts; or 

  

	(d)	such amount, not exceeding the amounts described in (a) through (c) above, as the Plan Administrator determines.

 ARTICLE VII: DEATH BENEFITS 

7.010 Designation of a Beneficiary. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.020, in the event of a Participant’s death, payment of the
benefits provided under this Plan will be made to such person or persons as he has designated as his Beneficiary to receive such benefits. 
 7.020
Spouse as Automatic Beneficiary. In the case of a Participant who has been married for at least one (1) year at the time of his death and who dies prior to complete distribution of his Accounts, the Beneficiary will be deemed to be the
Participant’s spouse regardless of any contrary designation, unless the Participant has filed with the Plan Administrator a written Beneficiary designation naming a person or persons other than such spouse. Such written designation must be
accompanied by a written consent of the Participant’s spouse, but may be accepted by the Plan Administrator without such a written consent, if it is established to the Plan Administrator’s satisfaction that such a written consent cannot be
obtained because: 
  

	(a)	there is no spouse; 

  

	(b)	the spouse cannot be located; or 

  

	(c)	other circumstances exist, as permitted under Code §417(a)(2), which prevent presentation of such consent to the Plan Administrator. 


Such written consent (which must be witnessed by a notary public) must be on a form furnished to the Participant by the Plan Administrator and must
acknowledge the effect of the consent. In the event that a Participant has a new spouse to whom he has been married for a one (1) year period, the previous designation of a prior spouse will be void and the new spouse will be deemed to be the
Participant’s Beneficiary, unless the Participant makes a written designation of a person or persons other than the new spouse in a manner described above in this Section. 

7.030 Beneficiary Changes. A Participant may change his designation of Beneficiary at any time by filing a request for such change with the Plan
Administrator (or such other person as is designated by the Plan Administrator). Such change will become effective only upon receipt of the request by the Plan Administrator (or the Plan Administrator’s delegate), but upon such receipt, the
change will relate back to and be effective as of the date the Participant signed such request; provided, however, that the Plan Administrator, the other named fiduciaries and the Trust Fund will be not be liable in any way or to any degree for any
payment made to the Beneficiary designated before receipt of such request. 
 7.040 Participant’s Estate as Beneficiary in Certain Cases. The
benefits payable from a Participant’s Accounts at the time of his death will be paid to the Participant’s estate, if any of the following circumstances should exist at the time of his death: 

 

	(a)	no valid designation of Beneficiary exists pursuant to this Article;

Plan 011 
 Effective January 1, 2009










	(b)	the Plan Administrator or Trustee has a doubt as to the rights of a potential Beneficiary; or 

  

	(c)	a previously designated Beneficiary predeceases the Participant. 

 In such case, the Plan Administrator and the
Trustee will not be individually liable in any manner and to any degree with respect to such payment. 
 7.050 Payment to a Beneficiary. Upon receipt
by the Plan Administrator (or another person designated by him) of evidence satisfactory to such person of the death of a Participant and of the identity and existence at the time of such death of the Beneficiary, the Plan Administrator will direct
the Trustee to pay the Participant’s Accounts to such Beneficiary in accordance with Article V.

Trustee in Rockwell Automation common stock and will remain in the said Rockwell Automation Stock Fund. 

 8.030 Trustee’s Powers and
Authority. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.050 concerning certain power and authority connected with the common stock of Rockwell Automation, which is held in the Rockwell Automation Stock Fund, the Trustee will have full authority

8.040 Statutory Limits. In making all investments pursuant to this Plan, the Trustee will: 

 

	(a)	be subject to applicable provisions of ERISA governing the exercise of its fiduciary responsibilities on behalf of the Trust Fund and this Plan, as well as to all applicable securities laws governing the investments of

	 	(1)	the Trustee will solicit the direction in writing of each Participant, as to the manner in which voting rights of the Participant’s vested and non-vested shares of common
stock held in or credited to a Stock Fund as of the record date fixed for determining the holders of common stock entitled to vote on such matter are to be exercised with respect to such matter, and the Trustee will exercise the voting rights of
such shares with respect to such matter in accordance with the last-dated timely written direction, if any, of such Participant; and 


 

	 	(2)	the Trustee, in its sole discretion, will exercise voting rights of shares of common stock held in the Stock Funds as to which no timely direction has been received pursuant to paragraph (1).


  

	(c)	In the event of any Tender Offer: 

  

	 	(1)	the Trustee will solicit the direction in writing of each Participant, as to the tendering or depositing of any vested or non-vested shares of common stock held in any Stock Fund

	 	(3)	the expiration of thirty (30) days from the date of the Trustee’s solicitation of Participants’ written direction pursuant to subsection (c)(1). 


 

	(e)	The duty with respect to the withdrawal, or other exercise of any right of withdrawal, of shares of common stock held in a Stock Fund which have been tendered or deposited pursuant to any such Tender Offer will be
solely that of the Trustee; provided that the Trustee may solicit the direction in writing of each Participant with respect to whom any such shares of common stock have been tendered or deposited pursuant to any such Tender Offer as to the
withdrawal of, or other exercise of any right to withdraw, such shares of common stock and, if such solicitation is made, the Trustee will act in accordance with the last dated timely written direction, if any, of each such Participant.


 8.060 Rights in the Trust Fund. Nothing in the Plan or in the Trust Agreement will be deemed to confer any legal or equitable right
or interest in the Trust Fund in favor of any Participant, Beneficiary or other person, except to the extent expressly provided in the Plan. 
 8.070
Taxes, Fees and Expenses of the Trustee. 
  

	(a)	The reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee (including the reasonable expenses of the Trustee’s counsel) will be paid from the Trust Fund and will constitute a charge on the Trust Fund until so paid; provided,

The Plan Administrator has such other responsibility as is designated by ERISA as the responsibility of the administrator of the Plan and will have such other
power and authority as is necessary to fulfill his responsibilities under ERISA or under the Plan. Benefits under the Plan shall be payable to any party only if the Plan Administrator or its designee, including the Employee Benefits Appeals

or thing whatsoever, and to the extent they rely thereon, such records will be conclusive with respect to all Employees, Participants, and Beneficiaries.

Plan 011 
 Effective January 1, 2009









 
Administrator, each member of the Employee Benefit Plan Committee, each member of the Employee Benefits Appeals Committee and any other employee of the Company with duties under the Plan, to the
full extent permitted by law against expenses, liability and loss (including attorney’s fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred by him in connection with any claims against him
by reason of this position in connection with the Plan or his duties under the Plan. Such rights of indemnification shall include the right to be paid by the Company expenses, including attorney’s fees, incurred in defending any civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding, in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an understanding by or on behalf of such person to repay such amount if it shall be
determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. 
 9.110 Mailing and Lapse of Payments. All payments under the Plan
will be delivered in person or mailed to the last address of the Participant (or, in the case of the death of the Participant, to that of any other person entitled to such payments under the terms of the Plan) furnished pursuant to
Section 9.130 below. If the Participant is deceased and payment cannot be made alternately to the estate of either and no surviving spouse, child, grandchild, parent, brother or sister of the Participant or his Beneficiary are known to the Plan
Administrator or the Trustee or, if known, cannot with reasonable diligence be located, the amount payable will be retained by the Trustee until the amount can be distributed pursuant to the provisions of this Plan or of applicable law. 

9.120 Non-Alienation. No right or benefit provided for in the Plan will be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer,
assignment, pledge, encumbrance (including garnishment, attachment, execution or levy of any kind or charge) and any attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or charge the same will be void; provided, however, that
the foregoing will not apply to the creation, assignment, or recognition of a right to any benefit payable with respect to a Participant pursuant to: 
  

	(a)	a domestic relations order, which the Plan Administrator determines is a qualified domestic relations order under Code §414(p) and which requires that the order’s alternate payee (as defined in the said Code
section) will be paid in a lump sum as soon as is practicable following the order’s issuance. 

 9.130 Notices and Communications.
Each Participant will be responsible for furnishing the Plan Administrator or his designee with his current address and the correct current name and address of his Beneficiary. All communications from Participants must be in the manner from time to
time prescribed by the Plan Administrator or his designee and must be addressed or communicated (including telephonic communications) to such entity or Company office as may be designated by the Plan Administrator, and will be deemed to have been
given to the Company when received by such entity or Company office. Each communication directed to a Participant or Beneficiary must be in writing and may be delivered in person or by mail, in which latter event it will be deemed to have been
delivered and received by him when so deposited in the United States Mail with postage prepaid addressed to the Participant or Beneficiary at his last address of record with the office designated by the Plan Administrator.

 9.140 Company Rights. The Company’s rights to discipline or discharge Employees or to exercise its
rights as to incidents and tenure of employment will not be affected in any manner by reason of the existence of the Trust Agreement or the Plan, or any action taken under them. 

9.150 Payments on Behalf of Incompetent Participants or Beneficiaries. In the event that the Plan Administrator or his designee finds that any
Participant or Beneficiary to whom a benefit is payable under the terms of this Plan is unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident, is otherwise mentally or physically incompetent, or unable to give a valid receipt, the Plan
Administrator may cause the payment becoming due to such Participant or Beneficiary to be paid to another person for his benefit without responsibility on the part of the Plan Administrator, the Employee Benefit Plan Committee, the Employee Benefits
Appeals Committee, the Company or the Trustee to follow the application of such payment. Any such payment will be a payment for the account of the Participant or Beneficiary and will operate as a complete discharge of all liability therefor under
this Plan of the Trustee, the Company, the Plan Administrator, the Employee Benefits Appeals Committee and the Employee Benefit Plan Committee.

 ARTICLE X: PARTICIPANT CLAIMS 

10.010 Claims and Appeals Procedures. The following paragraphs set forth the exclusive procedure for making claims against the Plan. Any person making
a claim hereunder shall proceed as follows: 
  

	(a)	Request for Benefits. Benefits shall be requested by written application on a form filed in accordance with procedures established and uniformly applied by the Plan Administrator or its delegate. The Employee
Benefits Appeals Committee or its delegate shall make all determinations as to the right of any Participant, Beneficiary, or spouse to receive a benefit under the Plan and the amount of such benefit. The time, manner, and form of distribution of
such benefit shall occur in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 

  

	(b)	Claims. If a Participant believes that the requested benefit was erroneously denied or that the amount of a withdrawal or distribution from the Plan is in error or if an Employee believes that he has been
improperly denied the right to participate in the Plan or receive a contribution to the Plan, such Participant or Employee must make a claim to the Employee Benefits Appeals Committee in such manner and pursuant to such procedure as established by
the Committee. A claimant who fails to reduce a claim to writing shall be deemed not to have made such claim. 

  

	(c)	Decision on Claims. The Employee Benefits Appeals Committee or its delegate will make a decision with respect to a claim within 90 days of the receipt of the written claim, unless special circumstances require an
extension of time for processing, in which case a decision must be rendered within 180 days (notice of the delay must be furnished within the initial 90-day period, however). If a claim is wholly or partially denied, the claimant shall receive from
the Employee Benefits Appeals Committee a written notice which includes the following: (A) the specific reason or reasons for the denial, (B) specific references to pertinent provisions of the Plan upon which the denial is based,
(C) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation as to why such material or information is necessary, (D) appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if
the claimant wishes to submit a claim for review and (E) a statement of the claimant’s right to bring an action under ERISA §502(a) following an adverse benefit determination on review. 


 

	(d)	 Appeal. Any person whose claim has been denied as set forth in (c) may appeal the denial to the Employee Benefits Appeals Committee by
filing a written appeal within sixty (60) days of the date of receipt of the denial. In such review, the claimant or his duly authorized representative shall have the right to review any pertinent Plan documents and to submit any issues or
comments in writing. In addition, the claimant (i) shall have the right to submit documents, records, and other information relating to the claim for benefits; and (ii) shall be provided upon request and free of charge, reasonable access
to and copies of all documents, records, and other information that is relevant to the claim for benefits. In the sole discretion

of the Employee Benefits Appeals Committee or its delegate, the Committee may arrange to meet with the claimant and/or the claimant’s representative or have a hearing for the purpose of
understanding the claimant’s position and any related evidence which the claimant wishes to offer. In all cases, the Committee’s review of the appeal shall take into account all comments, documents, records, and other information submitted
by the claimant, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. 


For purposes of this Section, information is considered “relevant” to a claimant’s claim if such document, record, or other
information (i) was relied upon in making the benefit determination; (ii) was submitted, considered, or generated in the course of making the benefit determination, without regard to whether such document, record, or other information was
relied upon in making the determination; or (iii) demonstrates compliance with the Plan’s review procedures and that, if appropriate, the Plan provisions have been applied consistently with respect to similarly situated claimants. 

 

	(e)	Decision on Appeal. The Employee Benefits Appeals Committee or its delegate, within sixty (60) days after receipt of the request for review, or, in special circumstances such as where the Committee or its
delegate in its sale discretion finds there is a need to hold a hearing, within one hundred and twenty (120) days of receipt of the request for review (in which case notice of the delay will be given to the claimant during the initial sixty-
(60) day period), shall give written notice of its decision to the claimant in writing. The notice shall include specific reasons for the decision and specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions upon which the decision is based. In
addition, the written notice of the decision denying a claim shall contain (i) a statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records, and other
information that is relevant to the claimant’s claim for benefits, and (ii) a statement of the claimant’s right to bring an action under ERISA §502(a). If the appeal has not been granted and the notice is not furnished within the
period of time specified above, the appeal shall be deemed to be denied. The decision on appeal shall be binding on all parties. 

 10.020
Limitation on Legal Action. In the event a claim is finally determined under this Article X, no legal action shall be brought against the Plan, the Plan Administrator, the Employee Benefit Plan Committee, the Employee Benefits Appeals Committee
or the Company more than two years after the date of final determination, nor shall any claim or other action be brought against the Plan, the Plan Administrator, the Employee Benefit Plan Committee, the Employee Benefits Appeals Committee or the
Company more than two years after the claimant knew or should have known of the existence of such claim or action.

 ARTICLE XI: AMENDMENT, MERGERS, TERMINATION, ETC. 

11.010 Amendment. The Board of Directors or its designee may, at any time and from time to time, amend this Plan in whole or in part. However, except
as provided in Section 11.040 below, no amendment may be made, the effect of which would be: 
  

	(a)	to cause any contributions paid to the Trustee to be used for or diverted to purposes other than providing benefits to the Participants and their Beneficiaries, and defraying reasonable expenses of administering the
Plan, prior to satisfaction of all liabilities with respect to Participants and their Beneficiaries; 

  

	(b)	to have any retroactive effect so as to deprive any Participant or Beneficiary of any benefit to which he would be entitled under this Plan if his employment were terminated immediately before such amendment; or


  

	(c)	to increase the responsibilities or liabilities of the Trustee without its written consent. 

 11.020
Transfer of Assets and Liabilities. The Employee Benefit Plan Committee at any time may, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Participant or his representative, cause the Trustee to segregate part of the assets of the Trust Fund
into one or more separate trust funds and designate a group of Participants whose benefits will be provided solely from each such segregated fund. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion without the consent of any Participant or his
representative, establish a separate plan to cover any such group of Participants. The initial terms and conditions of any such plan will be identical to the extent such terms and conditions affect the rights of Participants under the Plan.
Amendment to the Plan will not be necessary to carry out the provisions of this Section. 
 11.030 Merger Restriction. The Company may, by action of
the Board of Directors, merge this Plan, in whole or in part, with any other plan sponsored by the Company or by an Affiliate of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, the Plan may not in whole or in part be merged or
consolidated with, or have its assets or liabilities transferred to any other plan, unless each affected Participant in this Plan would (if the Plan then terminated) receive a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation, or transfer which is
equal to or greater than the benefit he would have been entitled to receive immediately before the merger, consolidation, or transfer (if the Plan had then terminated). 

11.040 Suspension of Contributions. The Company may, without amendment of the Plan and without the consent of any Participant or representative of any
Participant, suspend contributions to the Plan as to all or certain Participants by action of the Board of Directors. In any event, the Company will suspend contributions at any time when the amount of any contribution by it would be in excess of
the earnings, including retained earnings, of the Company. Upon a suspension, the Employee Benefit Plan Committee may, in its sole discretion permit the Trust Fund to continue to be held by the Trustee, or may segregate one or more parts of the
Trust Fund, as provided in Section 11.020.

 11.050 Discontinuance of Contributions. The Company may, by action of the Board of Directors, without
amendment of the Plan and without the consent of any Participant or representative of any Participant, discontinue such contributions to the Plan as to all or certain Participants. 

11.060 Termination. The Company may terminate or partially terminate the Plan at any time. Upon such termination or partial termination of the Plan, or
upon a complete discontinuance of contributions pursuant to Section 11.050, the Accounts of each affected Participant will remain fully vested and nonforfeitable. In the event of termination or partial termination the Employee Benefit Plan
Committee may, without the consent of any Participant or other person, permit the Trustee to retain all or part of the Trust Fund or distribute all or part of the Trust Fund to the Participants or their spouses or Beneficiaries.

12.010 Benefits Payable only from Trust Fund. All benefits payable hereunder will be provided solely from the trust, and the Company assumes
no responsibility for the acts of the Trustee, except as provided in the Trust Agreement. 
 12.020 Requirement for Release. Any payment to
any Participant or a Participant’s present, future or former spouse or Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of this Plan will, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims against the Plan, the Plan Administrator, the
Trustee and the Company, and the Trustee may require such Participant or Beneficiary, as a condition precedent to such payment to execute a receipt and release to such effect. 

12.030 Transfers of Stock. Transfers of Rockwell Automation common stock from the Plan will be made as soon as practicable, but the Company, the Plan
Administrator, any other Named Fiduciary and the Trustee will not have any responsibility for any decrease in the value of such common stock between the Valuation Date used for determination of the number of shares to which the Participant is
entitled and the date of transfer by the transfer agent, nor will the Participant receive any dividends, rights, options or warrants on such stock other than those payable to stockholders of record as of a date on or after the date of
transfer. 
 12.040 Rights of Reemployed Veterans. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, contributions, benefits and
service credit with respect to qualified military service will be provided in accordance with Code §414(u). 
 12.050 Qualification of the Plan.
The Company intends for the Plan to be qualified and approved by the PRTD under PR Code §1165 and for Company Contributions to be deductible by the Company for Puerto Rico income tax purposes. Continuation of the Plan is contingent upon and
subject to retaining such qualification and approval. Any modification or amendment of the Plan or the Trust Agreement may be made retroactively by the Company, if necessary or appropriate, to qualify or maintain the Plan and the Trust as a plan and
trust meeting the requirements of applicable provisions of the PR Code and of other federal or Puerto Rico laws, as are now or in the future may be in effect. No contribution made by the Company may revert to the Company, unless such contribution
was the result of a good faith mistake of fact, in which case such contribution may be returned to the Company within one (1) year to the extent permitted by all applicable laws. 

12.060 Interpretation. The masculine gender will include the feminine and the singular will include the plural unless the context clearly indicates
otherwise. 
 12.070 No Contract of Employment. The adoption and maintenance of this Plan shall not be construed as creating any contract of
employment between the Company or any Affiliated Company and any employee, and each such Company shall have the right in all respects to deal with its employees, their hiring, discharge, compensation and conditions of employment as though the Plan
did not exist. No employee shall have any right to question the action of any

 APPENDIX B 

PROCEDURES, TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF LOANS 

Eligibility for Loans. The individuals eligible to obtain loans from the Plan (“Borrowers”) are limited to: 

 

	 	(1)	Employees, and 

  

	 	(2)	non-Employees who are “parties in interest” (as defined in ERISA §3(14)) 

 who have Plan Account
balances. An Employee who wishes to obtain a loan must be employed on an active payroll of an Affiliated Company at the time of the loan application. A party in interest who is not an Employee will be eligible to obtain a loan only if an agreement
can be provided by the party’s current employer to deduct and remit the required loan repayments to the Savings Plan. 
 Limitation on Number and
Minimum Amount of Loans. Only two (2) loans to a Borrower will be permitted to be outstanding from all Company sponsored savings plans at any one time. Each loan must be for a minimum of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00). 

Maximum Amount of Loan. The amount which a Borrower will be permitted to borrow from the Plan is based on the aggregate value of the
Borrower’s Accounts, determined in accordance with the Plan, and may not exceed the least of the amounts described in Section 6.060 of the Plan. The maximum amount of any loan will be further limited to ensure that, after applying the
appropriate interest rate and taking into account all applicable deductions, the resulting periodic repayments will not exceed the Borrower’s net earnings. The deductions referred to in the preceding sentence include statutory withholdings,
deductions for employee benefits and all Pre-tax contributions to the Plan. 
 Loan Applications. Loan applications by prospective Borrowers
will be made via telephone to the Plan Administrator or such third party administrator as may be designated by the Plan Administrator (either of whom is hereafter referred to as the “Loan Administrator”). The Loan Administrator will then
review the telephonic application and determine eligibility for the loan. If the loan is approved, the Loan Administrator will prepare and forward to the Borrower a letter notifying the Borrower of the approval, together with a Truth in Lending
Statement and a check for the loan amount, all in form approved by the Plan Administrator. The Borrower’s endorsement of the loan check will be considered to be the Borrower’s agreement to the terms of the loan. Failure by the Borrower to
endorse the check within thirty (30) days after the date of the check will be deemed to be a withdrawal by the Borrower of the loan application. 

Loan Initiation Fee. A fee in the amount of Seventy-five Dollars ($75.00) will be assessed in connection with the initiation of each loan. This
fee will be deducted from the Borrower’s Plan Account at the same time that the loan is approved and processed. 

  
 -48- 

Plan 011 
 Effective January 1, 2009









 Source of Loan Funds. Each loan will be funded from the Borrower’s Investment Funds on a pro
rata basis, based upon the relative size of the balance of each such Fund, by withdrawing the required amounts from the Plan Account(s) of the Borrower in the following order: 

 

					
	First		—		from amounts in the Borrower’s Pre-tax Contribution Account attributable to his Supplemental Pre-tax Contributions;
			
	Second		—		from amounts in the Borrower’s Pre-tax Contribution Account attributable to his Catch-up Contributions;
			
	Third		—		from amounts in the Borrower’s Pre-tax Contribution Account attributable to his Basic Pre-tax Contributions;
			
	Fourth		—		from amounts in the Borrower’s Account attributable to QNECs;
			
	Fifth		—		from amounts in the Borrower’s After-tax Contribution Account attributable to his Supplemental After-tax Contributions;
			
	Sixth		—		from amounts in the Borrower’s After-tax Contribution Account attributable to his Basic After-tax Contributions;
			
	Seventh		—		from amounts in the Borrower’s Contribution Accounts attributable to his pre-tax Rollover Contributions; and
			
	Eighth		—		from amounts in the Borrower’s Contribution Accounts attributable to his after-tax Rollover Contributions.

 Determination of Loan Interest Rate. The interest rate to be charged for loans will be one percent
(1%) over the prime rate stated by Reuters and published on the last business day of each calendar month. 
 Term of Loans. Loans will be
permitted for terms of 12, 24, 36, 48 or 60 months for loans other than those for the purpose of purchasing a primary residence, which will be permitted for terms up to 120 months. 

Repayments. Loan repayments by Employees will be deducted from the Employee’s pay check each pay period. If a pay check is insufficient to
cover the full amount of the loan repayment, no deduction will be made, and the repayment will be deducted from the Employee’s next pay check. 

Prepayments. Prepayment of a loan will not be permitted during the first 30 days of the loan’s existence, but the full unpaid balance of
the loan may be prepaid by a Borrower at any time after 30 days. Partial prepayments in excess of scheduled payroll deductions will not be accepted. 

  
 -49- 

Plan 011 
 Effective January 1, 2009









 Missed Payments. If any payment is not made, interest will continue to accrue on such missed
payment and subsequent payments will be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest on the missed payment and then to principal. A notice will be mailed to the last known address of the Borrower stating that if three (3) consecutive months of
payments are missed, the loan will be considered to be in default. 
 Termination of Employment. If a Borrower who is an Employee terminates
employment or is on an unpaid Leave, or if a Borrower who is not an Employee is no longer able to repay a loan through payroll deductions, the Borrower may continue to make loan repayments by bank check, cashier check, personal check or money order.
Such repayments to the Plan will be made through the Loan Administrator at an address to be provided to the Borrower by the Loan Administrator. 

Default. A loan will be considered to be in default after three (3) consecutive months of payments have been missed during the term of the
loan or when a Borrower revokes a payroll deduction authorization. In the event of such a default, a distribution of the loan amount, including both unpaid principal and accrued but unpaid interest, will be deemed to have occurred (as described in §1.401(k)-1(d)(6)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations) and an information return reflecting the tax consequences, if any, to the Borrower will be issued. Upon the occurrence of an event permitting actual
distribution of the Borrower’s Account pursuant to the provisions of PR Code §1165(e) (whether distribution of the Borrower’s entire Plan Account will actually be made or will be deferred pursuant to applicable provisions of the
Plan), the unpaid balance of a defaulted loan will be charged off against the Borrower’s Account. If no distribution event has occurred, which would otherwise permit payment to the Borrower under PR Code §1165(e), the unpaid balance of the
loan will be retained in the Account until such time as payment would be permitted under that PR Code Section, at which time the unpaid balance of the loan, including any accrued and unpaid interest, will be charged off against the Borrower’s
Account.

may be made retroactively by the Company, if necessary or appropriate, to qualify or maintain the Plan and the Trust as a plan and trust meeting the requirements of applicable provisions of the 1994 PR Code, the PR Code and of other federal or
Puerto Rico laws, as are now or in the future may be in effect. No contribution made by the Company may revert to the Company, unless such contribution was the result of a good faith mistake of fact, in which case such contribution may be returned
to the Company within one (1) year to the extent permitted by all applicable laws.” 
 20. The definition of the term “Default” in
Appendix B of the Plan is hereby amended effective as of January 1, 2011 to read as follows: 
 “Default. A loan will be considered
to be in default after three (3) consecutive months of payments have been missed during the term of the loan or when a Borrower revokes a payroll deduction authorization. In the event of such a default, a distribution of the loan amount,
including both unpaid principal and accrued but unpaid interest, will be deemed to have occurred (as described in §1.401(k)-l(d)(6)(ii) of the regulations under the Code) and an information return reflecting the tax consequences, if any, to the
Borrower will be issued. Upon the occurrence of an event permitting actual distribution of the Borrower’s Account pursuant to the provisions of the 1994 PR Code §1165(e) (Section 108l.01(d) of the PR Code for Plan Years commencing on or
after January 1, 2011) (whether distribution of the Borrower’s entire Plan Account will actually be made or will be deferred pursuant to applicable provisions of the Plan), the unpaid balance of a defaulted loan will be charged off against
the Borrower’s Account. If no distribution event has occurred, which would otherwise permit payment to the Borrower under PR Code §1165(e) (Section 108l.01(d) of the PR Code for Plan Years commencing on or after January 1, 2011), the
unpaid balance of the loan will be retained in the Account until such time as payment would be permitted under that 1994 PR Code or PR Code Section, at which time the unpaid balance of the loan, including any accrued and unpaid interest, will be
charged off against the Borrower’s Account.”
