JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC.
EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

In consideration of the employment of the undersigned employee (“Executive”) by Johnson Controls, Inc., or its affiliated companies (“Company”), it is agreed between Executive and Company as follows in lieu of any other agreements or commitments relating to such employment, whether written or oral and whether past or present, unless expressly included or incorporated herein:

1. DUTIES. The Company agrees to employ Executive as a manager with duties and responsibilities which the Company acting either through its Board of Directors or its Chief Executive Officer, in its sole discretion believes are appropriate to Executive’s skills, training and experience. Executive agrees to perform such assigned duties by devoting full time, due care, loyalty and best efforts thereto and complying with all applicable laws and the requirements of the Company’s policies and procedures on employee conduct, including but not limited to the Ethics and no-harassment policies.

2. TERM. This Agreement will be for an initial period of one year, and will thereafter automatically renew for successive one-year periods unless terminated as provided in Section 4, replaced or amended as provided in Section 5, or superceded as provided in Section 6.

3. COMPENSATION. Executive shall be paid or be eligible for the base salary, bonuses, and benefits set forth in Exhibit A, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section, Exhibit A and in Section 4. The salary, benefits, and bonuses will be reviewed and adjusted periodically in accordance with the Company’s policies then in existence. Those policies and any benefit and bonus programs may be amended from time to time at the Company’s discretion.

4. TERMINATION. Executive’s employment with the Company may be terminated as follows, and Executive’s sole right to receive compensation, benefits, or bonuses after the termination shall be exclusively as set forth below. At the time of any such termination, upon request of the Company, such Executive agrees to resign in writing from all positions and board memberships of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates.

(a) DEATH. If Executive dies during the term of this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate and the Company shall be obligated to make payments of six (6) months of Executive’s base salary to the beneficiaries set out in Exhibit A or to his estate if no beneficiaries have been designated. However, all benefit plans or bonuses in effect upon Executive’s death shall operate in accordance with their terms covering death of the Executive or terminate immediately if silent.

(b) DISABILITY. If Executive becomes disabled during the term hereof, Executive’s sole remedy shall be to the Company’s Short and Long Term Disability Policies in effect at that time and Executive’s “disability” shall be determined in accordance with such plan provisions. All other bonuses and benefits in effect at that time shall operate in accordance with their provisions relating to disability or terminate if there is no such provision.

JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC.
EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

(c) BY EMPLOYEE. Executive may terminate this Agreement at any time for any reason, including resignation or retirement. All compensation, bonuses, or benefits in effect at that time shall cease as of the date of termination, unless specifically provided otherwise with respect to voluntary terminations in the applicable bonus or benefit policies. Without limiting the Company’s discretion generally, the Company specifically reserves the right to grant or not grant stock options, restricted stock, bonuses or other awards to an employee who has voluntarily terminated employment or announced his intention to do so.

(d) FOR CAUSE. The Company may terminate Executive for theft, dishonesty, fraudulent misconduct, violation of Section 7 or 8 of this Agreement, gross dereliction of duty, grave misconduct injurious to the Company or serious violation of the law or the Company’s policies and procedures on employee conduct. In the event the Company terminates Executive for cause hereunder, the Executive shall not be due any compensation, bonuses or benefits after the Termination Date unless earned in full prior to such date in accordance with the applicable provisions of the plan or plans. The Company, if allowed by law, may set off losses, fines or damages the Executive has caused it as a result of such misconduct.

(e) WITHOUT CAUSE. The Company, acting through its Board of Directors or through its Chief Executive Officer, may terminate Executive for any reason other than as set out in Sec. 4. a. - d. In such an event, Executive shall receive a severance allowance under the Company’s severance policy in effect at that time provided Executive signs a full release in form and substance acceptable to the Company; however, in no event shall such benefits be less than Executive’s base salary for one (1) year or twice the severance payments provided under the then current severance policy, whichever is greater, and provided further that payment of the severance benefit will be delayed to the extent required in order to avoid the imposition on Executive of an excise tax under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, and if so delayed, to the extent permitted under Code Section 409A, the delayed payment or payments shall be credited with interest at an annual rate equal to the “prime rate” as published from time to time by The Wall Street Journal (such rate changing as and when such published rate changes), compounded quarterly. Executive shall also receive any bonus or benefits in effect at that time under plan provisions for terminations without cause or none if such plans are silent.

5. AMENDMENT. The Company may at any time in its discretion amend, modify or replace this Agreement; however, such changes shall not reduce the benefits provided Executive for termination without cause under Sec. 4.e.

6. CHANGE OF CONTROL. In the event there is a “change of control” in the Company, as such term is defined in the Agreement attached as Exhibit B, then the Agreement set forth in Exhibit B shall supersede and replace this Agreement in all respects.

7. NONCOMPETITION. (a) Executive agrees that for a period of one year after the termination of active employment hereunder, he shall not, except as permitted by the Company’s prior written consent, in any capacity in which Confidential

JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC.
EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

Information or Trade Secrets of the Company would reasonably be regarded as useful, engage in, be employed by, or in any way advise or act for any business which is a competitor of the Company with respect to the products or services provided by any division or group within the Company to which Executive devoted substantial attention in the year preceding termination of employment with the Company, and within the national and international geographic markets served by any such division or group. This restriction shall also apply to any ownership or other financial interest in such a competitor except the ownership of less than five percent of the shares of any corporation whose shares are listed on a recognized stock exchange or trade in an over-the-counter market. Depending on the scope of Executive’s responsibilities in the year preceding termination of employment with the Company, this covenant could potentially apply to a geographic area coextensive with the Company’s operations, including but not limited to all of North America and the European Economic Community. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(b) REMEDIES. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the terms of Section 7 and 8: (i) are reasonable in geographic and temporal scope, (ii) are necessary to protect legitimate proprietary and business interests of the Company in, inter alia, near permanent customer relationships and confidential information. The Executive further acknowledges and agrees that (x) the Executive’s breach of the provisions of Section 7 will cause the Company irreparable harm, which cannot be adequately compensated by money damages, and (y) if the Company elects to prevent the Executive from breaching such provisions by obtaining an injunction against the Executive, there is a reasonable probability of the Company’s eventual success on the merits. The Executive consents and agrees that if the Executive commits any such breach or threatens to commit any breach, the Company shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, in addition to, and not in lieu of, such other remedies as may be available to the Company for such breach, including the recovery of money damages. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that the provisions of Section 10(d) below are accurate and necessary because (A) this Agreement is entered into in the State of Wisconsin, (B) as of the Effective Date, Wisconsin will have a substantial relationship to the Parties and to this transaction, (C) as of the date of this Agreement, Wisconsin is the headquarters state of the Company, which has operations globally and has a compelling interest in having its employees treated uniformly, (D) the use of Wisconsin law provides certainty to the Parties in any covenant litigation in the United States, and (E) enforcement of the provision of this Section 7 would not violate any fundamental public policy of Wisconsin or any other jurisdiction. If any of the provisions of Sections 7 or 8 are determined to be wholly or partially unenforceable, the Executive hereby agrees that this Agreement or any provision hereof may be reformed so that it is enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. If any of the provisions of Sections 7 or 8 are determined to be wholly or partially unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such determination shall not be a bar to or in any way diminish the Company’s right to enforce any such covenant in any other jurisdiction.

8. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. (a) The Executive shall hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company all secret or confidential information,

JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC.
EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

knowledge or data relating to the Company or any of its affiliated companies, and their respective businesses, which shall have been obtained by the Executive during the Executive’s employment by the Company or any of its affiliated companies and which shall not be or become public knowledge (other than by acts by the Executive or representatives of the Executive in violation of this Agreement). During employment and for two years after termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive, except as may otherwise be required by law or legal process, shall not use any such information except on behalf of the Company and shall not communicate or divulge any such information, knowledge or data to anyone other than the Company and those designated by it. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Nothing in this paragraph is intended or shall be construed to limit in any way Executive’s independent duty not to misappropriate Trade Secrets of the Company.

(b) “Trade Secret” means information of the Company, including a formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process, that derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use, and that is the subject of efforts by the Company to maintain its secrecy that are reasonable under the circumstances. During employment with the Company, Executive shall preserve and protect Trade Secrets of the Company from unauthorized use or disclosure, and after termination of such employment, Executive shall not use or disclose any Trade Secret of the Company until such time as that Trade Secret is no longer a secret as a result of circumstances other than a misappropriation involving the Executive.

9. MANDATORY ARBITRATION. As a condition of his employment with the Company, and in consideration for that employment, Executive agrees that if he has any legal disputes with the Company or its supervisors, managers, directors, or agents concerning his employment or termination of employment, those disputes will be brought and resolved exclusively through binding arbitration. For example, any claims by the Executive that he has been demoted, denied promotion, or discharged because of age discrimination, race discrimination, or unlawful retaliation will be resolved through binding arbitration. Arbitrations involving employment issues under this provision will be conducted pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Employment Dispute Resolution Program (copy attached), except that use of arbitration under the Program to resolve employment disputes will be mandatory rather than voluntary. Arbitrations under this agreement will be conducted pursuant to the procedural rules established for resolving employment disputes by the American Arbitration Association (copy available). By signing this Agreement, Executive releases and waives any right he has to resolve employment disputes (including claims of unlawful discharge) through filing a lawsuit in court, and agrees instead that the disputes will be resolved exclusively though binding arbitration. Because Executive is giving up the legal right to file a lawsuit against the Company or its supervisors, managers, directors, or agents involving any and all legal disputes arising from his employment or termination of employment, the Company encourages him to consult with an attorney prior to signing this Agreement. Executive understands that he has twenty-one days to consider whether to sign this agreement. If he signs it, for a period of seven days following the signing he may

JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC.
EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

revoke the agreement. In order to make the revocation effective, he must deliver a signed revocation to the Company within the seven-day revocation period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive agrees that the Company may seek enforcement of paragraphs 7-8 of this Agreement by filing an action in a court of competent jurisdiction seeking temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief and such other relief as may be necessary to protect the Company from threatened, imminent, or existing irreparable harm.

10. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) This Agreement is personal to the Executive and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by the Executive otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s legal representatives.

(b) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns. Executive hereby grants the Company unlimited authority to assign its rights under this Agreement and consents to any and all such assignments.

(c) The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and at the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor its business and/or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law, or otherwise.

(d) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wisconsin, without reference to principles of conflict of laws. The captions of this Agreement are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force or effect.

(e) All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by hand delivery to the other party or by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

AGREEMENT by and between Johnson Controls, Inc. a Wisconsin corporation (the “Company”) and Executive Name (the “Executive”), dated as of the day of , 20XX.

The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to assure that the Company will have the continued dedication of the Executive, notwithstanding the possibility, threat or occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined below) of the Company. The Board believes it is imperative to diminish the inevitable distraction of the Executive by virtue of the personal uncertainties and risks created by a pending or threatened Change of Control and to encourage the Executive’s full attention and dedication to the Company currently and in the event of any threatened or pending Change of Control, and to provide the Executive with compensation and benefits arrangements upon a Change of Control which ensure that the compensation and benefits expectations of the Executive will be satisfied and which are competitive with those of other corporations. Therefore, in order to accomplish these objectives, the Board has caused the Company to enter into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

1. Certain Definitions. (a) The “Effective Date” shall mean the first date during the Change of Control Period (as defined in Section 1(b)) on which a Change of Control (as defined in Section 2) occurs. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if a Change of Control occurs and if the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated or the Executive ceases to be an officer of the Company prior to the date on which the Change of Control occurs, and if it is reasonably demonstrated by the Executive that such termination of employment or cessation of status as an officer (i) was at the request of a third party who has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect the Change of Control or (ii) otherwise arose in connection with or anticipation of the Change of Control, then for all purposes of this Agreement the “Effective Date” shall mean the date immediately prior to the date of such termination of employment or cessation of status as an officer.

(b) The “Change of Control Period” shall mean the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the second anniversary of such date; provided, however, that commencing on the date one year after the date hereof, and on each annual anniversary of such date (such date and each annual anniversary thereof shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Renewal Date”), the Change of Control Period shall be automatically extended so as to terminate two years from such Renewal Date, unless at least 60 days prior to the Renewal Date the Company shall give notice to the Executive that the Change of Control Period shall not be so extended.

2. Change of Control. For the purpose of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” shall mean the first to occur of:

(i) During the Employment Period, (A) the Executive’s position (including status, offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties and responsibilities shall be at least commensurate in all material respects with the most significant of those held, exercised and assigned at any time during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date and (B) the Executive’s services shall be performed at the location where the Executive was employed immediately preceding the Effective Date or any office or location less than 35 miles from such location.

During the Employment Period it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for the Executive to (A) serve on corporate, civic or charitable boards or committees, (B) deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements or teach at educational institutions and (C) manage personal investments, so long as such activities do not significantly interfere with the performance of the Executive’s responsibilities as an employee of the Company in accordance with this Agreement.

scope thereto) subsequent to the Effective Date shall not thereafter be deemed to interfere with the performance of the Executive’s responsibilities to the Company.

(b) Compensation. (i) Base Salary. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall receive an annual base salary (“Annual Base Salary”), which shall be paid at a monthly rate, at least equal to twelve times the highest monthly base salary paid or payable to the Executive by the Company and its Affiliated Companies in respect of the twelve-month period immediately preceding the month in which the Effective Date occurs. During the Employment Period, the Annual Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually and shall be increased at any time and from time to time as shall be substantially consistent with increases in base salary generally awarded in the ordinary course of business to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies. Any increase in Annual Base Salary shall not serve to limit or reduce any other obligation to the Executive under this Agreement. Annual Base Salary shall not be reduced after any such increase and the term Annual Base Salary as utilized in this Agreement shall refer to Annual Base Salary as so increased.

(ii) Annual Bonus. In addition to Annual Base Salary, the Executive shall be awarded, for each fiscal year ending during the Employment Period, an annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) in cash at least equal to the average annualized (for any fiscal year consisting of less than twelve full months or with respect to which the Executive has been employed by the Company for less than twelve full months) bonuses paid or payable, including any amount that would have been paid or have been payable were it not for a mandatory or voluntary deferral of such amount, including pursuant to the Executive Incentive Compensation Plan and the Long Term Performance Plan or any counterpart or successor plans thereto, to the Executive by the Company and its Affiliated Companies in respect of the three fiscal years immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the Effective Date occurs (the “Recent Average Bonus”). Each such Annual Bonus shall be paid no later than the end of the third month of the fiscal year next following the fiscal year for which the Annual Bonus is awarded, unless the Executive shall elect to defer the receipt of such Annual Bonus.

(iii) Incentive, Savings and Retirement Plans. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in all incentive, savings and retirement plans, practices, policies and programs applicable generally to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies, but in no event shall such plans, practices, policies and programs provide the Executive with incentive opportunities (measured with respect to both regular and special incentive opportunities, to the extent, if any, that such distinction is applicable), savings opportunities and retirement benefit opportunities, in each case, less favorable, in the aggregate, than the most favorable of those provided by the Company and its Affiliated Companies for the Executive under such plans, practices, policies and programs as in effect at any time during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, those provided generally at any time after the Effective Date to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies. The amount payable to

(iv) Welfare Benefit Plans. During the Employment Period, the Executive and/or the Executive’s family, as the case may be, shall be eligible for participation in and shall receive all benefits under welfare benefit plans, practices, policies and programs provided by the Company and its Affiliated Companies (including, without limitation, medical, prescription, dental, disability, salary continuance, employee life, group life, accidental death and travel, accident insurance plans and programs) to the extent applicable generally to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies, but in no event shall such plans, practices, policies and programs provide the Executive with benefits which are less favorable, in the aggregate, than the most favorable of such plans, practices, policies and programs in effect for the Executive at any time during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, those provided generally at any time after the Effective Date to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies.

(v) Expenses. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by the Executive in accordance with the most favorable policies, practices and procedures of the Company and its Affiliated Companies in effect for the Executive at any time during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies.

(vi) Fringe Benefits. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to fringe benefits in accordance with the most favorable plans, practices, programs and policies of the Company and its affiliated companies in effect for the Executive at any time during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies.

(vii) Office and Support Staff. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to an office or offices of a size and with furnishings and other appointments, and to exclusive personal secretarial and other assistance, at least equal to the most favorable of the foregoing provided to the Executive by the Company and its affiliated companies at any time during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, as provided generally at any time thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies.

(viii) Vacation. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to paid vacation in accordance with the most favorable plans, policies, programs and practices of the Company and its Affiliated Companies as in effect for the Executive at any time during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time thereafter with respect to other peer incentives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies.

5. Termination of Employment. (a) Death or Disability. The Executive’s employment shall terminate automatically upon the Executive’s death during the Employment Period. If the Company determines in good faith that the Disability of the Executive has occurred during the Employment Period (pursuant to the definition of Disability set forth below), it may give to the Executive or his legal representative written notice in accordance with Section 12(b) of this Agreement of its intention to terminate the Executive’s employment. In such event, the Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate effective on the 30th day after receipt of such notice by the Executive or his legal representative (the “Disability Effective Date”), provided that, within the 30 days after such receipt, the Executive shall not have returned to full-time performance of the Executive’s duties. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean the absence of the Executive from the Executive’s duties with the Company on a full-time basis for 180 consecutive business days as a result of a medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or is otherwise determined to be total and permanent by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable to the Executive or the Executive’s legal representative (such agreement as to acceptability not to be withheld unreasonably).

(b) Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment during the Employment Period for Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean (i) repeated violations by the Executive of the Executive’s obligations under Section 4(a) of this Agreement (other than as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness) which are demonstrably willful and deliberate on the Executive’s part, which are committed in bad faith or without reasonable belief that such violations are in the best interests of the Company and which are not remedied in a reasonable period of time after receipt of written notice from the Company specifying such violations or (ii) the conviction of the Executive of a felony involving moral turpitude. For purposes of this Section 5(b), no act, or failure to act, on the part of the Executive shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of the Company. Any act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or upon the instructions of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or a senior officer of the Company or based upon the advice of counsel for the Company (or any act which the Executive omits to do because of the Executive’s reasonable belief that such act would violate law or the Company’s standards of ethical conduct in its corporate policies) shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in good faith and in the best interests

EXHIBIT B

JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC.
CHANGE OF CONTROL
EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

of the Company. The cessation of employment of the Executive shall not be deemed to be for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to the Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the entire membership of the Board (excluding the Executive, if the Executive is a member of the Board) at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice is provided to the Executive and the Executive is given an opportunity, together with counsel for the Executive, to be heard before the Board), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board, the Executive committed the conduct described in Section 5(b)(i) or 5(b)(ii), and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

(c) Without Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment during the Employment Period without Cause, in which event, without limitation the provisions of Section 6 shall apply.

(d) Good Reason. The Executive’s employment may be terminated by the Executive for Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean

(i) the assignment to the Executive of any duties inconsistent in any respect with the Executive’s position (including status, offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties or responsibilities as contemplated by Section 4(a) of this Agreement, or any other action by the Company which results in a diminution in such position, authority, duties or responsibilities, excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice thereof given by the Executive,

(ii) any failure by the Company to comply with any of the provisions of Section 4(b) of this Agreement, other than an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent failure not occurring in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice thereof given by the Executive;

(iii) the Company’s requiring the Executive to be based at any office or location other than that described in Section 4(a)(i)(B) hereof;

(iv) any purported termination by the Company of the Executive’s employment otherwise than as expressly permitted by this Agreement; or

(v) any failure by the Company to comply with and satisfy Section 11(c) of this Agreement; or,

(vi) the Company’s request that the Executive perform any illegal, or wrongful act in violation of the Company’s code of conduct policies.

For purposes of this Section 5(d), any good faith determination of “Good Reason” made by the Executive shall be conclusive. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, a termination by the Executive for any reason or no reason during the

30-day period immediately following the first anniversary of the Effective Date shall be deemed to be a termination by the Executive for Good Reason for all purposes of this Agreement.

(e) Without Good Reason. The Executive’s employment may be terminated during the Employment Period by the Executive without Good Reason.

(f) Notice of Termination. Any termination by the Company, or by the Executive, shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 12(b) of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” means a written notice which (i) indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) to the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated and (iii) if the Date of Termination (as defined below) is other than the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date (which date shall be not more than fifteen days after the giving of such notice). The failure by the Executive or the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not waive any right of the Executive or the Company hereunder or preclude the Executive or the Company from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing the Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder. Subject to the provisions of Section 6, the Employment Period ends at 11:59 p.m. on his Date of Termination.

(g) Date of Termination. “Date of Termination” means (i) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, or by the Executive for Good Reason or for other than Good Reason, the date of receipt of the Notice of Termination or any later date specified therein, as the case may be, (ii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which the Company notifies the Executive of such termination and (iii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of death or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date of death of the Executive or the Disability Effective Date, as the case may be.

6. Obligations of the Company upon Termination. (a) Good Reason: Other Than for Cause, Death or Disability. If, during the Employment Period, the Company shall terminate the Executive’s employment other than for Cause or Disability or the Executive shall terminate employment for Good Reason:

(i) The Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days after the Date of Termination (provided that, to the extent required in order to avoid the imposition on Executive of an Excise Tax under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, Payment will be delayed until no earlier than six (6) months and no later than seven (7) months after the Date of Termination, and if so delayed, to the extent permitted by Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, such Payment shall be

A. the sum of (1) the Executive’s Annual Base Salary through the Date of Termination and any Annual Bonus(es) that relate to performance periods that have ended on or before the Date of Termination, (2) the product of (x) the higher of (I) the Recent Average Bonus and (II) the Annual Bonus paid or payable, including any amount that would have been paid or would be payable were it not for a mandatory or voluntary deferral of such amount (and annualized for any fiscal year consisting of less than twelve full months or for which the Executive has been employed for less than twelve full months) for the most recently completed fiscal year during the Employment Period, if any (the “Highest Annual Bonus”) and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the current fiscal year through the Date of Termination, and the denominator of which is 365 (provided that, if the Executive’s Date of Termination is on the same day as a Change of Control occurs as defined in the Executive Incentive Compensation Plan and the Long Term Performance Plan or any counterpart or successor plans thereto, the amount payable under this clause (2) shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the amounts paid or payable under such plans as a result of the Change of Control); and (3) any compensation previously deferred by the Executive (together with any accrued interest or earnings thereon) and any accrued vacation pay; in each case to the extent not theretofore paid (the sum of the amounts described in clauses (1), (2), and (3) shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Accrued Obligations”); and

B. the amount equal to the product of (1) three and (2) the sum of (x) the Executive’s Annual Base Salary and (y) the Highest Annual Bonus; and

C. a separate lump-sum supplemental retirement benefit equal to the amount, if any, by which (1) the actuarial equivalent single-sum value (utilizing for this purpose the actuarial assumptions utilized to determine lump sum Payments as of the Date of Termination with respect to the Johnson Controls Pension Plan (or any successor plan thereto) (the “Retirement Plan”) ) of the benefit payable under the Retirement Plan and the Johnson Controls Inc. Equalization Benefit Plan or any other supplemental and/or excess retirement plan providing benefits for the Executive (the “SERP”) which the Executive would receive if the Executive’s employment continued at the compensation level provided for in Sections 4(b)(i) and 4(b)(ii) of this Agreement until the second anniversary of the Effective Date, assuming for this purpose that all accrued benefits are fully vested and that benefit accrual formulas and the actuarial assumptions are no less advantageous to the Executive than those most favorable to the Executive and in effect during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date

JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC.

EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

and assuming that the benefits commence on the earliest date following termination on which the Executive would be eligible to commence benefits under the Retirement Plan, exceeds (2) the actuarial equivalent single-sum value (utilizing for this purpose the same actuarial assumptions as here utilized in clause (1) above) of the Executive’s actual benefit (paid or payable) with Payment assumed to have commenced at the same time as under clause (1) above, if any, under the Retirement Plan, the Johnson Controls Inc. Equalization Benefit Plan and the SERP; and

(ii) until the second anniversary remainder of the Effective Date, or such longer period as any plan, program, practice or policy may provide, the Company shall continue welfare benefits to the Executive and/or the Executive’s family at least equal to those which would have been provided to them in accordance with the plans, programs, practices and policies described in Section 4(b)(iv) of this Agreement if the Executive’s employment had not been terminated in accordance with the most favorable plans, practices, programs or policies of the Company and its Affiliated Companies applicable generally to other peer executives and their families during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies and their families, provided, however, that if the Executive becomes reemployed with another employer and is eligible to receive medical or other welfare benefits under another employer provided plan, the medical and other welfare benefits described herein shall be secondary to those provided under such other plan during such applicable period of eligibility. For purposes of determining eligibility of the Executive for retiree benefits pursuant to such plans, practices, programs and policies, the Executive shall be considered to have remained employed until the second anniversary of the Effective Date and to have retired on the last day of such period; and

(iii) to the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the Executive is eligible to receive pursuant to this Agreement under any plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement of the Company and its Affiliated Companies (such other amounts and benefits shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Other Benefits”).

(b) Death. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of the Executive’s death during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive’s legal representatives under this Agreement, other than for Payment of the Special Termination Amount and the timely Payment or provision of Other Benefits. The Special Termination Amount shall be paid to the Executive’s estate or beneficiary, as applicable, in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date of Termination. With respect to the provision of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as utilized in this Section 6(b) shall include, and the Executive’s family shall be entitled to receive, benefits at least equal to the most favorable benefits

provided by the Company and any of its Affiliated Companies to surviving families of peer executives of the Company and such Affiliated Companies under such plans, programs, practices and policies relating to family death benefits, if any, as in effect with respect to other peer executives and their families at any time during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive and/or the Executive’s family, as in effect on the date of the Executive’s death with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies and their families.

(c) Disability. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of the Executive’s Disability during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive, other than for Payment of the Special Termination Amount and the timely Payment or provision of Other Benefits. The Special Termination Amount shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date of Termination. With respect to the provision of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as utilized in this Section 6(c) shall include, and the Executive shall be entitled after the Disability Effective Date to receive, disability and other benefits at least equal to the most favorable of those generally provided by the Company and its Affiliated Companies to disabled executives and/or their families in accordance with such plans, programs, practices and policies relating to disability, if any, as in effect generally with respect to other peer executives and their families at any time during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive and/or the Executive’s family, as in effect at any time thereafter generally with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its Affiliated Companies and their families.

(d) Termination by Company for Cause; Termination by Executive for Other than for Good Reason.

(i) If the Executive’s employment shall be terminated for Cause during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive other than the obligation to pay to the Executive his Annual Base Salary through the Date of Termination and the Payment, in accordance with the terms of the Johnson Controls, Inc. Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (or other relevant deferral plan) of any compensation previously deferred by the Executive, in each case to the extent theretofore unpaid.

(ii) If the Executive voluntarily terminates employment during the Employment Period, excluding a termination for Good Reason, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive, other than for Accrued Obligations and the timely Payment or provision of Other Benefits. In such case, all Accrued Obligations shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date of Termination (provided that, to the extent required to avoid the imposition on the Executive of an Excise Tax under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, Payment will be delayed until no earlier than six (6) months and no later than seven (7) months after the Date of Termination, and if so delayed, to the extent permitted by Internal Revenue

Code Section 409A, such Payment shall be credited with interest at an annual rate equal to Prime Rate compounded quarterly.

7. Non-Exclusivity of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit the Executive’s continuing or future participation in any plan, program, policy or practice provided by the Company or any of its Affiliated Companies and for which the Executive may qualify, nor shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as the Executive may have under any contract or agreement with the Company or any of its Affiliated Companies. Amounts which are vested benefits or which the Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, policy, practice or program of or any contract or agreement with the Company or any of its Affiliated Companies at or subsequent to the Date of Termination shall be payable in accordance with such plan, policy, practice or program or contract or agreement except as explicitly modified by this Agreement.

8. Full Settlement. The Company’s obligation to make the Payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action which the Company may have against the Executive or others. In no event shall the Executive be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement and, except as provided in Section 6(a)(ii), such amounts shall not be reduced whether or not the Executive obtains other employment. The Company agrees to pay, to the full extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses which the Executive may reasonably incur as a result of any contest (regardless of the outcome thereof) by the Company, the Executive or others of the validity or enforceability of, or liability under, any provision of this Agreement or any guarantee of performance thereof (including as a result of any contest by the Executive about the amount of any Payment pursuant to this Agreement), plus in each case interest on any delayed Payment at the Prime Rate compounded quarterly.

9. Certain Additional Payments by the Company.

(a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding and except as set forth below, in the event it shall be determined that any Payment would be subject to the Excise Tax, then the Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional Payment (“Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that, after Payment by the Executive of all taxes (and any interest or penalty imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes, (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9(a), if it shall be determined that the Executive is entitled to the Gross-Up Payment, but that the Parachute Value of all Payments does not exceed 110% of the Safe Harbor Amount, then no Gross-Up Payment shall be made to the Executive and the amounts payable

EXHIBIT B

JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC.
CHANGE OF CONTROL
EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

under this Agreement shall be reduced so that the Parachute Value of all Payments, in aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amount. The reduction of the amounts payable hereunder, if applicable shall be made by first reducing the Payments under Section 6(a)(i)(B), unless an alternative method of reduction is elected by the Executive, and in any event shall be made in such a manner as to maximize the Value of all Payments actually made to the Executive. For purposes of reducing the Payments to the Safe Harbor Amount, only amounts payable under this Agreement (and no other Payments) shall be reduced. If the reduction of the amount payable under this Agreement would not result in a reduction of the Parachute Value of all Payments to the Safe Harbor Amount, no amounts payable under the Agreement shall be reduced pursuant to Section 9(a). The Company’s obligation to make Gross-Up Payments under this Section 9 shall not be conditioned upon the Executive’s termination of employment.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 9(c), all determinations required to be made under this Section 9, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP or such other certified public accounting firm as may be designated by the Executive (the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Executive within 15 business days of the receipt of notice from the Executive that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by the Company. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change of Control, the Executive shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section 9, shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within five days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm’s determination (provided that, to the extent required in order to avoid the imposition on the Executive of an Excise Tax under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, the Gross-Up Payment will be delayed until no earlier than six (6) months and no later than seven (7) months after the Date of Termination, and if so delayed, such Payment shall be credited with interest at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate, compounded quarterly). If the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by the Executive, it shall furnish the Executive with a written opinion that failure to report the Excise Tax on the Executive’s applicable federal income tax return would not result in the imposition of a negligence or similar penalty. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made by the Company should have been made (“Underpayment”), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section 9(c) and the Executive thereafter is required to make a Payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such

EXHIBIT B

JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC.

EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive.

(c) The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the Payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten business days after the Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period following the date on which it gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any Payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies the Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive shall:

(i) give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such claim,

(ii) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company,

(iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to effectively contest such claim, and

(iv) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim;

provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and Payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 9(c), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and the Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs the Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such

EXHIBIT B

JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC.

EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

Payment or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such Payment; and further provided that any extension of the statute of limitations relating to Payment of taxes for the taxable year of the Executive with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested amount. Furthermore, the Company’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and the Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.

(d) If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 9(c), the Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject to the Company’s complying with the requirements of Section 9(c)) promptly pay to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 9(c), a determination is made that the Executive shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of 30 days after the Company’s receipt of notice of such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8, the Company may, in its sole discretion, withhold and pay over to the Internal Revenue Service or any other applicable taxing authority, for the benefit of the Executive, all or any portion of any Gross-Up Payment, and the Executive hereby consents to such withholding.

(f) Definitions. The following terms shall have the following meanings for purposes of this Section 9.

(i) “Excise Tax” shall mean the Excise Tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, together with any interest or penalties imposed with the respect to such Excise Tax.

(ii) “Parachute Value” of a Payment shall mean the present value as of the date of the change of control for purposes of Section 280G of the Code of the portion of such Payment that constitutes a “parachute payment” under Section 280G(b)(2), as determined by the Accounting Firm for purposes of determining whether and to what extent the Excise Tax will apply to such Payment.

(iii) A “Payment” shall mean any Payment or distribution in the nature of compensation (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code) to or for the benefit of the Executive, whether paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.

EXHIBIT B

JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC.

(iv) The “Safe Harbor Amount” means 2.99 times the Executive’s “base amount,” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code.

(v) “Value” of a Payment shall mean the economic present value of a Payment as of the date of the change of control for purposes of Section 280G of the Code, as determined by the Accounting Firm using the discount rate required by Section 280G(d)(4) of the Code.

10. Confidential Information. (a) The Executive shall hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company all secret or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Company or any of its Affiliated Companies, and their respective businesses, which shall have been obtained by the Executive during the Executive’s employment by the Company or any of its Affiliated Companies and which shall not be or become public knowledge (other than by acts by the Executive or representatives of the Executive in violation of this Agreement). During employment and for two years after termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive, except as may otherwise be required by law or legal process, shall not use any such information except on behalf of the Company and shall not communicate or divulge any such information, knowledge or data to anyone other than the Company and those designated by it. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Nothing in this paragraph is intended or shall be construed to limit in any way Executive’s independent duty not to misappropriate Trade Secrets of the Company.

11. Successors. (a) This Agreement is personal to the Executive and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by the Executive otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s legal representatives.

(b) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns.

(c) The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Company to obtain such agreement prior to the Effective Date of such purchase, merger, consolidation or other transaction shall be a breach of this Agreement constituting “Good Reason” hereunder, except that for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date upon which such purchase, merger, consolidation or other transaction becomes effective shall be deemed the Date of Termination. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law, or otherwise.

12. Miscellaneous. (a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wisconsin, without reference to principles of conflict of laws. The captions of this Agreement are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force or effect. This Agreement may not be amended or modified otherwise than by a written agreement executed by the parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives.

(f) The Executive and the Company acknowledge that, except as may otherwise be provided under any other written agreement between the Executive and the Company, the employment of the Executive by the Company is “at will” and, prior to the Effective Date, may be terminated by either the Executive or the Company at any time. Moreover, if prior to the Effective Date, (i) the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates or (ii) the Executive ceases to be an officer of the Company, then the Executive shall have no further rights under this Agreement.
