Explanation of Responses:
1. The number of underlying securities is based on the stock fund balance on 5/27/2004. 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 5/27/2004 stock fund price of $54.06 per share.
2. The phantom stock units were accrued under the Johnson Controls Executive Incentive Compensation Plan and are to be settled 100% in cash upon the reporting person's retirement.
3. The phantom stock units convert to the common stock's cash value on a one-for-one basis.
4. The phantom stock units were accrued under the Johnson Controls Long-Term Performance Plan and are to be settled 100% in cash upon the reporting person's retirement.
5. The options were granted as Stock Appreciation Rights and are to be settled 100% in cash upon exercise.
6. Fifty percent of the options vest after two years and the remaining 50% vests after three years.
