2001 RESTRICTED STOCK PLAN

(Adjusted to reflect 3-for-1 stock split effective September 14, 2007)

ARTICLE 1.

PURPOSE AND DURATION

          Section 1.1. Purpose. The Johnson Controls, Inc. Restricted Stock Plan has two
complementary purposes: (a) to promote the success of the Company by providing incentives to the
Company’s and subsidiary’s officers and other key employees that will link their personal interests
to the long-term financial success of the Company and to growth in value; and (b) to permit the
Company and its subsidiaries to attract, motivate and retain experienced and knowledgeable
employees upon whose judgment, interest, and special efforts the successful conduct of the
Company’s operations is largely dependent.

          Section 1.2. Duration. The Plan was originally effective on October 1, 2001.
The Plan is amended and restated effective September 20, 2011. The Plan shall remain in effect,
subject to the right of the Board to terminate the Plan at any time pursuant to Article 11 herein,
until all Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan have been issued.

holding such Award (other than as specifically provided herein).

          Section 3.3. Decision Binding. The Committee’s determination and decisions made
pursuant to the provisions of the Plan and all related orders or resolutions of the Board shall be
final, conclusive and binding on all persons who have an interest in the Plan or an Award, and such

          Section 3.4. Procedures of the Committee. The Committee’s determinations must be
made by not less than a majority of its members present at the meeting (in person or otherwise) at
which a quorum is present, or by written majority consent, which sets forth the

 

 

action, is signed
by each member of the Committee and filed with the minutes for proceedings of the Committee. A
majority of the entire Committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.
Service on the Committee shall constitute service as a director of the Company so that the

under the Company’s By-laws and Wisconsin law for their services as directors of the Company.

Award by an award agreement which shall be signed by an authorized officer of the Company and by

the Plan. Terms and conditions of such Awards need not be the same in all cases.

structure of the Company affecting the Shares, the Committee shall adjust: (a) the number and
class of Shares which may be delivered under the Plan; and (b) the number and class of Shares or
Share Units subject to outstanding Awards, as it determines to be appropriate and equitable to
prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights intended to be granted hereunder and under any Award;

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AWARDS

          Section 6.1. Grant of Award. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan,
the Committee shall have the authority to determine the number of Shares or Share Units to which an
Award shall relate, the term of the Restriction Period and conditions for lapse thereof, and any
other terms and conditions of an Award. If determined by the Committee, a Participant may elect to
defer all or any portion of his Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units pursuant to the
Deferred Compensation Plan.

          Section 6.2. Terms and Conditions of Restricted Share Awards.

          (a) Period of Restriction. Restricted Shares may not be sold, transferred, pledged,
assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, and shall be subject to a substantial risk of
forfeiture, until the termination of the applicable Period of Restriction as set forth in the
Participant’s award agreement or provided herein. During the Period of Restriction, the Company
shall have the right to hold the Restricted Shares in escrow.

          (b) Certificate Legend. Each certificate representing Restricted Shares shall bear
the following legend:

“The sale or other transfer of the shares of stock represented by
this certificate, whether voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of
law, is subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth in the
Johnson Controls, Inc. 2001 Restricted Stock Plan, in the rules and
administrative procedures adopted pursuant to such Plan, and in a
Restricted Stock Agreement dated _________________. A copy of the
Plan, such rules and procedures, and such Restricted Stock
Agreement may be obtained from the Secretary of Johnson Controls,
Inc.”

          (c) Removal of Restrictions. Except as otherwise provided in this Article, Restricted
Shares shall become vested in, and freely transferable by, the Participant after the last day of
the Period of Restriction. Once the Shares are released from the restrictions, the Participant
shall be entitled to have the legend required by subsection (b) removed from his stock certificate.

          (d) Voting Rights. Unless determined otherwise by the Committee, during the Period of
Restriction, Participants holding Restricted Shares may exercise full voting rights with respect to
those Shares.

          (e) Dividends and Other Distributions. Any dividends or other distributions paid or
delivered with respect to Restricted Shares will be subject to the same terms and conditions
(including risk of forfeiture) as the Restricted Shares to which they relate and payment or
delivery thereof will be deferred accordingly. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, all
dividends or other distributions paid or delivered with respect to Restricted Shares shall be
allocated to a Share Unit account or other investment account under the Deferred Compensation Plan.

 

 

          Section 6.3. Terms and Conditions of Restricted Share Units.

          (a) Establishment of Account. Upon the grant of Restricted Share Units to a
Participant, the Company shall establish a bookkeeping account under the Deferred Compensation Plan
to which shall be credited the number of Share Units granted.

          (b) Alienation of Account. A Participant (or beneficiary) shall not have any right to
assign, hypothecate, pledge, encumber or otherwise alienate his Share Unit account.

          (c) Dividends and Other Distributions. Each Participant with a Share Unit account
shall be entitled to receive a credit to such account for any dividends or other distributions
delivered on Shares, whether in the form of cash or in property, in accordance with the terms of
the Deferred Compensation Plan; provided that such credit shall be subject to the same terms and
conditions (including risk of forfeiture) as the Restricted Share Units to which they relate.

          (d) Payment of Account. The value of the Participant’s Share Unit account as to which
the Restriction Period has lapsed shall be paid to the Participant (or his beneficiary) in
accordance with the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan.

          Section 6.4. Termination of Employment. Upon a Participant’s termination of
employment from the Company and its subsidiaries, the following rules shall apply:

          (a) Retirement. If the Participant terminates employment due to Retirement, any
remaining Period of Restriction shall continue as if the Participant continued in active
employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant engages in Inimical Conduct after
his Retirement, any Restricted Shares and/or Restricted Share Units still subject to a Period of
Restriction shall automatically be forfeited as of the date of the Committee’s determination.

          (b) Death or Disability. If the Participant’s employment terminates because of death
or Total and Permanent Disability at a time when the Participant could not have been terminated for
Cause, or if the Participant dies after Retirement while holding an Award that is subject to a
Period of Restriction, any remaining Period of Restriction shall automatically lapse as of the date
of such termination of employment or death, as applicable.

          (c) Termination for Other Reasons. If the Participant’s employment terminates for any
reason not described above, then any Restricted Shares and/or Restricted Share Units still subject
to a Period of Restriction as of the date of such termination shall automatically be forfeited and
returned to the Company; provided, however, that in the event of an involuntary termination of the
employment of an Employee by the Company or a subsidiary for other than Cause, the Committee may
waive the automatic forfeiture of any or all such Shares or Share Units and may add such new
restrictions to such Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units as it deems appropriate.

          (d) Suspension. The Committee may suspend payment or delivery of Shares (without
liability for interest thereon) pending its determination of whether the Participant was or should
have been terminated for Cause or whether the Participant has engaged in Inimical Conduct.

 

 

          Section 6.5. Other Restrictions. The Committee may impose such other
restrictions on any Awards granted pursuant to the Plan (including after the Period of Restriction
lapses) as it may deem advisable including, without limitation, restrictions under applicable
Federal or state securities laws, and the Committee may legend certificates to give appropriate
notice of such restrictions.

ARTICLE 7.

RIGHTS OF ELIGIBLE INDIVIDUALS

          Section 7.1. Employment. Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in
any way the right of the Company or subsidiary to terminate any Participant’s employment at any
time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or
subsidiary.

          Section 7.2. No Implied Rights; Rights on Termination of Service. Neither the
establishment of the Plan nor any amendment thereof shall be construed as giving any Participant or
any other person any legal or equitable right unless such right shall be specifically provided for
in the Plan or conferred by specific action of the Committee in accordance with the terms and
provisions of the Plan.

          Section 7.3. No Funding. Neither the Participant nor any other person shall
acquire, by reason of the Plan or any Award, any right in or title to any assets, funds or property
of the Company and its subsidiaries whatsoever including, without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, any specific funds, assets, or other property which the Company or its subsidiaries may,
in their sole discretion, set aside in anticipation of a liability hereunder. Any benefits which
become payable hereunder shall be paid from the general assets of the Company and its subsidiaries,
as applicable. The Participant shall have only a contractual right to the amounts, if any, payable
hereunder unsecured by any asset of the Company or its subsidiaries. Nothing contained in the Plan
constitutes a guarantee by the Company or its subsidiaries that the assets of the Company or its
subsidiaries shall be sufficient to pay any benefit to any person.

          Section 7.4. Other Restrictions. As a condition to the issuance of any Shares,
the Committee may require the Participant to enter into a restrictive stock transfer or other
shareholder’s agreement with the Company.

or system on which the Shares are then listed or reported, or by any regulatory body having
jurisdiction with respect hereto. Further, no termination, amendment or modification of the Plan
shall in any manner adversely affect any Award theretofore granted under the Plan, without the
written consent of the Participant, except as specifically provided herein.

          Section 9.2. Amendment of Award Agreements. The Committee may at any time amend
any outstanding award agreement; provided, however, that any amendment that decreases or impairs
the rights of a Participant under such agreement shall not be effective unless consented to by the
Participant in writing, except that Participant consent shall not be required in the event an Award
is amended, adjusted or cancelled under Section 4.3 or paid as provided in Article 8, and

the extent provided in the Plan, the authority of (a) the Committee to amend, alter, adjust,
suspend, discontinue or terminate any Award, waive any conditions or restrictions with respect to
any Award, and otherwise administer the Plan and any Award and (b) the Board to amend the Plan,
shall extend beyond the date of the Plan’s termination. Termination of the Plan shall not affect

Period of Restriction, or the distribution of the Participant’s Share Unit account. The Company
shall also have the right to withhold Shares as to which the Period of Restriction has lapsed and
which have a Fair Market Value equal to the Participants’ minimum tax withholding liability, to
satisfy any withholding obligations.

          Section 10.2. Stock Delivery or Withholding. Participants may elect, subject to
the approval of the Committee and such rules as it shall prescribe, to satisfy the withholding
requirement, in whole or in part, by tendering to the Company previously acquired Shares in an

 

 

amount having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld to satisfy the
minimum tax withholding obligations described in Section 10.1. The value of the Shares to be

to be withheld is determined.

ARTICLE 11.

LEGENDS; PAYMENT OF EXPENSES

          Section 11.1. Legends. The Company may endorse such legend or legends upon the

such Shares.

of the business and/or assets of the Company. The Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the Participants and their heirs, executors, administrators or legal representatives.

ARTICLE 13.

REQUIREMENTS OF LAW

          Section 13.1. Requirements of Law. The granting of Awards and the issuance of
Shares under this Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such
approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.

          Section 13.2. Governing Law. This Plan and the rights and obligations hereunder
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Wisconsin
(excluding any choice of law rules that may direct the application of the laws of another
jurisdiction), except as provided in Section 13.3 hereof.

          Section 13.3. Arbitration.

          (a) Application. Notwithstanding any employee agreement in effect between a
Participant and the Company or any subsidiary employer, if a Participant brings a claim that
relates to benefits under this Plan, regardless of the basis of the claim (including but not
limited to, actions under Title VII, wrongful discharge, breach of employment agreement, etc.),
such

 

 

claim shall be settled by final binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the
American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may
be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

          (b) Initiation of Action. Arbitration must be initiated by serving or mailing a
written notice of the complaint to the other party. Normally, such written notice should be
provided the other party within one year (365 days) after the day the complaining party first knew
or should have known of the events giving rise to the complaint. However, this time frame may be
extended if the applicable statute of limitation provides for a longer period of time. If the
complaint is not properly submitted within the appropriate time frame, all rights and claims that
the complaining party has or may have against the other party shall be waived and void. Any
notice sent to the Company shall be delivered to:

Office of General Counsel

Johnson Controls, Inc.

5757 North Green Bay Avenue

P.O. Box 591

Milwaukee, WI 53201-0591

          The notice must identify and describe the nature of all complaints asserted and the facts upon
which such complaints are based. Notice will be deemed given according to the date of any postmark
or the date of time of any personal delivery.

          (c) Compliance with Personnel Policies. Before proceeding to arbitration on a
complaint, the Participant or Beneficiary must initiate and participate in any complaint resolution
procedure identified in the Company’s or subsidiary’s personnel policies. If the claimant has not
initiated the complaint resolution procedure before initiating arbitration on a complaint, the
initiation of the arbitration shall be deemed to begin the complaint resolution procedure. No
arbitration hearing shall be held on a complaint until any applicable Company or subsidiary
complaint resolution procedure has been completed.

          (d) Rules of Arbitration. All arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator
according to the Employment Dispute Arbitration Rules of the AAA. The arbitrator will have
authority to award any remedy or relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could order or grant
including, without limitation, specific performance of any obligation created under policy, the
awarding of punitive damages, the issuance of any injunction, costs and attorney’s fees to the
extent permitted by law, or the imposition of sanctions for abuse of the arbitration process. The
arbitrator’s award must be rendered in a writing that sets forth the essential findings and
conclusions on which the arbitrator’s award is based.

          (e) Representation and Costs. Each party may be represented in the arbitration by an
attorney or other representative selected by the party. The Company or subsidiary shall be
responsible for its own costs, the AAA filing fee and all other fees, costs and expenses of the
arbitrator and AAA for administering the arbitration. The claimant shall be responsible for his
attorney’s or representative’s fees, if any. However, if any party prevails on a statutory claim
which allows the prevailing party costs and/or attorneys’ fees, the arbitrator may award costs and
reasonable attorneys’ fees as provided by such statute.

 

 

          (f) Discovery; Location; Rules of Evidence. Discovery will be allowed to the same
extent afforded under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Arbitration will be held at a location
selected by the Company. AAA rules notwithstanding, the admissibility of evidence offered at the
arbitration shall be determined by the arbitrator who shall be the judge of its materiality and
relevance. Legal rules of evidence will not be controlling, and the standard for admissibility of
evidence will generally be whether it is the type of information that responsible people rely upon
in making important decisions.

          (g) Confidentiality. The existence, content or results of any arbitration may not be
disclosed by a party or arbitrator without the prior written consent of both parties. Witnesses
who are not a party to the arbitration shall be excluded from the hearing except to testify.exv10wl

RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT

This certifies that on [DATE], Johnson Controls, Inc., granted a Restricted Stock Award as
indicated above, upon the terms and conditions in this Agreement and the terms of the Restricted
Stock Plan dated October 1, 2001, and amended through September 20, 2011, which terms the
Participant accepts.

Johnson Controls, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation, has its principal office in Milwaukee, Wisconsin,
(the “Company”). The Restricted Stock Plan (the “Plan”) was adopted October 1, 2001, to allow
Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units of the Company’s common stock (“Shares”) to be granted
to certain key employees of the Company or any Subsidiary, as defined in Section 425(f) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Subsidiary”).

The individual named in this agreement (the “Participant”) is a key employee of the Company or a
Subsidiary, and the Company desires the Participant to remain in such employ by providing the
Participant with a means to increase his/her proprietary interest in the Company’s success. The
Plan and this Agreement shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors (the “Committee”). If at any time the Committee shall not be in existence, the Board
shall administer the Plan and this Agreement and each reference to the Committee herein shall be
deemed to include the Board.

The parties mutually agree as follows:

	 	1.	 	Grant of Award. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a copy of which has
been delivered to the Participant and made a part hereof, and this Agreement, the Company
grants to the Participant an award of Restricted Shares on the date and with respect to the
number of Shares specified above. Any capitalized terms not defined in this Agreement
will have the meanings provided in the Plan.
	 
	 	2.	 	Restricted Shares. If the Award is in the form of Restricted Shares, the Restricted
 shares are subject to the following provisions:
	 
	 	 	 	Restriction Period. The Company will hold the Restricted Shares in escrow for the
Restriction Period. During this period, the Participant may not sell, transfer, pledge,
assign or otherwise use these Restricted Shares, and the Restricted Shares shall be subject
to forfeiture as provided in Section 4.

	 	 	Restricted Shares will be held in a book entry share position while in escrow, subject to
the transfer restrictions and risk of forfeiture.

	 	a.	 	Removal of Restrictions. Restricted Shares that have not been
forfeited shall become available to the Participant after the last day of the
Restriction Period. Once the Shares are released, the restrictions shall be removed
from the Participant’s book entry share position.
	 
	 	b.	 	Voting Rights. During the Restriction Period, the Participant
may exercise full voting rights with respect to the Restricted Shares.
	 
	 	c.	 	Dividends and Other Distributions. Any dividends or other
distributions paid or delivered with respect to Restricted Shares will be subject to
the same terms and conditions (including risk of forfeiture) as the Restricted
Shares to which they relate. All dividends or other distributions paid or delivered
with respect to Restricted Shares during the Restriction Period (other than
dividends or other distributions payable in Shares) shall be allocated to a Share
Unit account under the Deferred Compensation Plan. Dividends or distributions
payable in shares will be held in a book entry share position as Restricted Shares.

 

 

	 	d.	 	Payment of Dividends. The value of the Participant’s Share Unit
account as to which the Restriction Period has lapsed shall be paid to the
Participant (or his beneficiary).

	 	3.	 	Restricted Share Units. If the Award is in the form of Restricted Share Units, the
Restricted Share Units are subject to the following terms:

	 	a.	 	Establishment of Account. The Company shall establish a
bookkeeping account under the Deferred Compensation Plan to which shall be credited
the number of Restricted Share Units elected. During the Restriction Period, the
Restricted Share Unit account will be subject to a risk of forfeiture as provided in
Section 4.
	 
	 	b.	 	Alienation of Account. The Participant (or beneficiary) shall
not have any right to assign, transfer, pledge, encumber or otherwise use the
Restricted Share Unit account (including after the Restriction Period has lapsed).
	 
	 	c.	 	Dividends and Other Distributions. The Participant’s Restricted
Share Unit account shall be credited for any dividends or other distributions
delivered on Shares equivalent to the number of Restricted Share Units credited to
such account, whether in the form of cash or in property, in accordance with the
terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan. Such credit shall be subject to the same
terms and conditions (including risk of forfeiture) as the Restricted Share Units to
which they relate.
	 
	 	d.	 	Payment of Account. The value of the Participant’s Share Unit
account as to which the Restriction Period has lapsed shall be paid to the
Participant (or his beneficiary) in accordance with the terms of the Deferred
Compensation Plan.

	 	4.	 	Termination of Employment — Risk of Forfeiture.

	 	a.	 	Retirement. If the Participant terminates employment from the
Company and its Subsidiaries due to Retirement on or after the last day of the
calendar year following the calendar year in which the Award of Restricted Shares or
Restricted Share Units is made, any remaining Restriction Period shall continue as
if the Participant continued in active employment. If the Participant engages in
Inimical Conduct after his Retirement, as determined by the Committee, any
Restricted Shares and/or Restricted Share Units still subject to a Restriction
Period shall automatically be forfeited as of the date of the Committee’s
determination. For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” [[has the meaning given
in the Plan.] [means the attainment of age x [with x years of service.]]
	 
	 	b.	 	Death or Disability. If the Participant’s employment from the
Company and its Subsidiaries terminates because of death or Total and Permanent
Disability at a time when the Participant could not have been terminated for Cause,
or if the Participant dies after Retirement while this Award is still subject to the
Restriction Period, any remaining Restriction Period shall automatically lapse as of
the date of such termination of employment or death, as applicable.
	 
	 	c.	 	Other Termination. If the Participant’s employment terminates
for any reason not described above, then any Restricted Shares or Restricted Share
Units (and all deferred dividends paid or credited thereon) still subject to the
Restriction Period as of the date of such termination shall automatically be
forfeited and returned to the Company. In the event of the Participant’s
involuntary termination of employment by the Company or a Subsidiary for other than
Cause, the Committee may waive the automatic forfeiture of any or all such Shares or
Share Units (and all deferred dividends paid or credited thereon) and may add such
new restrictions to such Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units as it deems
appropriate. The Company may suspend payment or delivery of Shares (without
liability for interest thereon) pending the Committee’s determination of whether the
Participant was or should have been terminated for Cause or whether the Participant
has engaged in Inimical Conduct.

	 	5.	 	Amendment of Agreement. The Committee, subject to the provisions of the Restricted
Stock Plan, may amend this award agreement.
	 
	 	6.	 	Withholding. The Participant agrees to remit to the Company any foreign, Federal,
state and/or local taxes (including the Participant’s FICA obligation) required by law to
be withheld with respect to the issuance of Shares or the vesting and/or distribution of
the Participant’s Share Unit account. The Company can withhold Shares no longer
restricted, or can withhold from other cash or property payable to the Participant, in the
amount needed to satisfy any withholding obligations.
	 
	 	 	 	The Participant may elect to tender to the Company previously acquired Shares to satisfy the
minimum tax withholding obligations. The value of the Shares to be tendered is to be based
on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is
determined.
	 
	 	7.	 	Securities Compliance. The Company may place a legend or legends upon the certificates
for Shares issued under the Plan and may issue “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer
agent in respect of such Shares as it determines to be necessary or appropriate to (a)
prevent a violation of, or to obtain an exemption from, the registration requirements of
the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws or other legal requirements, or (b)
implement the provisions of the Plan or any agreement between the Company and the
Participant with respect to such Shares.
	 
	 	8.	 	Successors. All obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be binding on
any successor to the Company. The terms of this Agreement and the Plan shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the Participants, heirs, executors, administrators or
legal representatives.
	 
	 	9.	 	Legal Compliance. The granting of this Award and the issuance of Shares under this
Agreement shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations and to such
approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.
	 
	 	10.	 	Governing Law; Arbitration. This Agreement and the rights and obligations hereunder
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of
Wisconsin.
	 
	 	 	 	Arbitration will be conducted per the provisions in the Restricted Stock Plan.

This Agreement, and any documents expressly incorporated herein, contains all of the provisions
applicable to the Restricted Stock Award. No other statements, documents or practices may modify,
waive or alter such provisions unless expressly set forth in writing, signed by an authorized
officer of the Company and delivered to the Participant.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Restricted Stock Agreement to be executed by one of
its duly authorized officers, and the Participant has consented to the terms of this Agreement, as
of the date of Grant specified on the front of this certificate.
