    <TD><B>Establishment. </B>JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC. (the &#147;Company&#148;) hereby establishes a stock option
plan for certain officers and other key employees, as described herein, which shall be known
as the JOHNSON CONTROLS, INC. 1992 STOCK OPTION PLAN (the &#147;Plan&#148;). It is intended that
certain of the stock options issued pursuant to the Plan may constitute incentive stock
options within the meaning of Section&nbsp;422 of the Internal Revenue Code (&#147;Incentive Stock
Options&#148;) and the remainder of the options issued pursuant to the Plan shall constitute
nonqualified options. Incentive Stock Options and nonqualified stock options are hereinafter
jointly referred to as &#147;Options.&#148; The Committee may also award stock appreciation rights
along with Options issued pursuant to the Plan and, subject to certain limitations, apart
from Options issued pursuant to the Plan.</TD>

    <TD><B>Purpose. </B>The purpose of the Plan is to induce certain officers and other key employees to
remain in the employ of the Company or its subsidiaries and to encourage such employees to
secure or increase on reasonable terms their stock ownership in the Company. The Board of
Directors of the Company (the &#147;Board of Directors&#148;) believes that the Plan will promote
continuity of management and increased incentive and personal interest in the welfare of the
Company by those who are responsible for shaping and carrying out the long-range plans of the
Company and securing its continued growth and financial success.</TD>

paragraph 4 as the cancellation or termination of such Options without having been

as provided in paragraph 18A, and shares of Common Stock may be issuable in connection with
such stock appreciation rights, then the grant of such stock appreciation rights shall be

right which is settled in cash, shall again be available for the purpose of the Plan. If
the exercise price of any Option granted under the Plan is satisfied by tendering shares of
Common Stock to the Company (by either actual delivery or by attestation), only the number
of shares of Common Stock issued net of the shares of Common Stock tendered shall be deemed
delivered for purposes of determining the maximum number of shares of Common Stock available
for delivery under the Plan. If any Participant satisfies the Company&#146;s withholding tax
requirements upon the exercise of an Option by properly electing to have the Company
withhold shares of Common Stock, then the shares of Common Stock so withheld shall again be
