Officers’ Certificate Pursuant to

Section 3.01 of the Indenture

Pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Indenture dated as of January 17, 2006 (the “Indenture”), between Johnson Controls, Inc. (the “Company”) and U.S. Bank National Association (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.), as trustee (the “Trustee”), the undersigned on behalf of the Company and in their respective capacities indicated, hereby certify that we have examined resolutions duly adopted at a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company on January 25, 2012 and the action of authorized officers of the Company, dated June 9, 2014. Acting pursuant to such resolutions and action, the undersigned hereby establish four series of Debt Securities by means of this Officers’ Certificate, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 of the Indenture:

The title of the four new series of Debt Securities shall be: 1.400% Senior Notes due 2017 (the “Notes due 2017”), 3.625% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Notes due 2024”), 4.625% Senior Notes due 2044 (the “Notes due 2044”) and 4.950% Senior Notes due 2064 (the “Notes due 2064”, and collectively with the Notes due 2017, the Notes due 2024 and the Notes due 2044, the “Notes”). U.S. Bank National Association shall be the trustee with respect to the Notes.

The aggregate principal amount of Notes due 2017 that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture (except for Notes due 2017 authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, Notes due 2017 pursuant to Article 3, the second paragraph of Section 4.03, or Section 11.04, of the Indenture) is initially $300,000,000; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to reopen the Notes due 2017 and issue additional Debt Securities, which shall be part of the same series as the Notes due 2017 initially issued (except for the issue date and, in some cases, the public offering price and the first interest payment date).

The aggregate principal amount of Notes due 2024 that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture (except for Notes due 2024 authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, Notes due 2024 pursuant to Article 3, the second paragraph of Section 4.03, or Section 11.04, of the Indenture) is initially $500,000,000; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to reopen the Notes due 2024 and issue additional Debt Securities, which shall be part of the same series as the Notes due 2024 initially issued (except for the issue date and, in some cases, the public offering price and the first interest payment date).

The aggregate principal amount of Notes due 2044 that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture (except for Notes due 2044 authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, Notes due 2044 pursuant to Article 3, the second paragraph of Section 4.03, or Section 11.04, of the Indenture) is initially $450,000,000; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to reopen the Notes due 2044 and issue additional Debt Securities, which shall be part of the same series as the Notes due 2044 initially issued (except for the issue date and, in some cases, the public offering price and the first interest payment date).

The aggregate principal amount of Notes due 2064 that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture (except for Notes due 2064 authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, Notes due 2064 pursuant to Article 3, the second paragraph of Section 4.03, or Section 11.04, of the Indenture) is initially $450,000,000; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to reopen the Notes due 2064 and issue additional Debt Securities, which shall be part of the same series as the Notes due 2064 initially issued (except for the issue date and, in some cases, the public offering price and the first interest payment date).

Principal on the Notes due 2017 shall be payable on November 2, 2017; principal on the Notes due 2024 shall be payable on July 2, 2024; principal on the Notes due 2044 shall be payable on July 2, 2044; and principal on the Notes due 2064 shall be payable on July 2, 2064.

The Notes due 2017 shall bear interest at a rate of 1.400% per annum, which interest shall accrue from June 13, 2014 and shall be payable semiannually on May 2 and November 2, beginning November 2, 2014, to the persons in whose names the Notes, as applicable, are registered at the close of business on the preceding April 18 and October 18. The Notes due 2024 shall bear interest at a rate of 3.625% per annum, the Notes due 2044 shall bear interest at a rate of 4.625% per annum and the Notes due 2064 shall bear interest at a rate of 4.950% per annum, which interest shall accrue from June 13, 2014 and shall be payable semiannually on January 2 and July 2, beginning January 2, 2015, to the persons in whose names the Notes, as applicable, are registered at the close of business on the preceding December 18 and June 18, respectively. Interest on the Notes (as defined below) will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The principal of and interest on each series of Notes shall initially be payable at the offices of U.S. Bank National Association (the “Paying Agent”).

(a) Optional Redemption. The Company may redeem the Notes due 2017, in whole or in part, at any time, the Notes due 2024, in whole or in part, at any time prior to April 2, 2024 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Notes due 2024), the Notes due 2044, in whole or in part, at any time prior to January 2, 2044 (six months prior to the maturity date of the Notes due 2044) and the Notes due 2064, in whole or in part, at any time prior to January 2, 2064 (six months prior to the maturity date of the Notes due 2064). The Redemption Price for the Notes to be redeemed on any Redemption Date will be equal to the greater of:

100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed on that Redemption Date, and

the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed on that Redemption Date (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the Redemption Date), discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate (as defined below), plus 10 basis points, in the case of the Notes due 2017, 15 basis points, in the case of the Notes due 2024, 20 basis points, in the case of the Notes due 2044, or 25 basis points, in the case of the Notes due 2064,

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes of such series being redeemed to the Redemption Date.

In addition, at any time on or after April 2, 2024 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Notes due 2024), with respect to the Notes due 2024, January 2, 2044 (six months prior to the maturity date of the Notes due 2044), with respect to the Notes due 2044, or January 2, 2064 (six months prior to the maturity date of the Notes due 2064), with respect to the Notes due 2064, the Company may redeem some or all of the applicable series of Notes at its option, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the applicable Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes of such series being redeemed to the Redemption Date. If the Redemption Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the Redemption Price and interest will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next Business Day.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on interest payment dates falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable on the interest payment date to the registered holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date according to the Notes and the Indenture.

As used herein:

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the U.S. Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of five Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (1) each of Goldman, Sachs & Co., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Barclays Capital Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (or their respective affiliates that are Primary Treasury Dealers (as defined below)) and their respective successors and (2) one Primary Treasury Dealer selected by Wells Fargo Securities, LLC or its successor; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date. The Treasury Rate will be calculated on the third business day preceding the Redemption Date.

Holders of Notes of any series to be redeemed will receive notice thereof by first-class mail (and/or, to the extent permitted by applicable procedures or regulations, electronically) at least 30 and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, except that redemption notices may be received more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with the defeasance or discharge of the applicable notes and/or the Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice of any redemption may, in the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. If fewer than all of the Notes of a series are to be redeemed, the Trustee will select, not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, the particular Notes of such series or portions thereof for redemption from the outstanding Notes of such series not previously called by such method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate.

(b) Tax Event Redemption. If a Tax Event occurs, the Company may redeem the Notes due 2064, in whole, but not in part, at the Company’s option at any time within 90 days following the occurrence of such Tax Event, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes due 2064 being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to but not including the Redemption Date. “Tax Event” means that the Company shall have received an opinion of nationally recognized independent tax counsel that, as a result of:

•

any amendment to or change (including any announced prospective amendment or change) in any law or treaty, or any regulation thereunder, of the United States or any of its political subdivisions or taxing authorities;

•

any judicial decision, administrative action, official administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure, regulation, notice or announcement, including any notice or announcement of intent to adopt or promulgate any ruling, regulatory procedure or regulation, by any court, governmental agency or regulatory authority (any of the foregoing, an “Administrative or Judicial Action”);

•

any amendment to or change in any official position with respect to, or any interpretation of, an Administrative or Judicial Action or a law or regulation of the United States that differs from the previously generally accepted position or interpretation; or

•

a threatened challenge asserted in writing in connection with an audit of the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, or a publicly-known threatened challenge asserted in writing against any other taxpayer that has raised capital through the issuance of securities that are substantially similar to the Notes due 2064,

in each case, occurring or becoming publicly-known on or after June 13, 2014, there is more than an insubstantial increase in the risk that interest payable by the Company on the Notes due 2064 is not, or within 90 days will not be, deductible, in whole or in part, by the Company

for United States federal income tax purposes. Holders of Notes due 2064 to be redeemed following a Tax Event will receive notice thereof by first-class mail (and/or, to the extent permitted by applicable procedures or regulations, electronically) at least 30 and not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date.

(c) Special Mandatory Redemption. The Company shall redeem the Notes on the Special Mandatory Redemption Date if the acquisition of Air Distribution Technologies is not consummated on or prior to December 31, 2014 or the acquisition agreement is terminated at any time prior thereto other than in connection with the consummation of the acquisition and is not otherwise amended or replaced (each such event, a “Special Mandatory Redemption Event”), at 101% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes from the date of initial issuance, or the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for, whichever is later, to, but excluding, the Special Mandatory Redemption Date (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”). The “Special Mandatory Redemption Date” means the earlier to occur of (i) January 15, 2015 (or, if such date is not a Business Day, the first Business Day thereafter) and (ii) the 15^th calendar day (or, if such date is not a Business Day, the first Business Day thereafter) following the Special Mandatory Redemption Event. The Company, either directly or through the Trustee on the Company’s behalf, shall cause a notice of the redemption following a Special Mandatory Redemption Event to be sent, with a copy to the Trustee, not later than five Business Days after the occurrence of the Special Mandatory Redemption Event to each Holder of Notes. Such notice will also specify the Special Mandatory Redemption Date. If the Special Mandatory Redemption Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the Special Mandatory Redemption Price and interest will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next Business Day.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined below) with respect to a series of Notes, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes by giving irrevocable notice on or prior to the 30th day after the Change of Control Triggering Event in accordance with the Indenture, each holder of Notes will have the right to require the Company to purchase all or a portion of such holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”), at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to but not including the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”), subject to the rights of holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due and owing on the relevant interest payment date. If the Change of Control Payment Date (as defined below) falls on a day that is not a business day, the related payment of the Change of Control Payment will be made on the next business day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next business day.

Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurs or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company will be required to send, by first class mail, a notice to each holder of Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice will govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such notice will state, among other things, the purchase date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (or, in the case of a notice mailed prior to the date of consummation of a Change of Control, no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date of the Change of Control

Triggering Event), other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, will state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control being consummated on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful:

(i)

accept or cause a third party to accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(ii)

deposit or cause a third party to deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

(iii)

deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being repurchased.

The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer with respect to the Notes if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for such an offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all the Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, the Company will not repurchase any Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an event of default under the Indenture, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment on the Change of Control Payment Date.

The Company must comply in all material respects with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the Company will be required to comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached the Company’s obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes by virtue of any such conflict.

As used in this Section 9:

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following after the date of issuance of the Notes:

(1) the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the Company assets and the assets of the Company’s Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) other than to the Company or one of the Company’s Subsidiaries, other than any such transaction or series of related transactions where holders of the Company’s Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior thereto hold Voting Stock of the transferee Person representing a majority of the voting power of the transferee Person’s Voting Stock immediately after giving effect thereto;

(2) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than the Company or one of the Company’s Subsidiaries) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of the Company’s Voting Stock representing a majority of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding Voting Stock;

(3) the Company consolidate with, or merge with or into, any Person, or any Person consolidates with, or merges with or into, the Company, in any such event pursuant to a transaction in which any of the Company’s outstanding Voting Stock or Voting Stock of such other Person is converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the Company’s Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitutes, or is converted into or exchanged for, Voting Stock representing a majority of the voting power of the Voting Stock of the surviving Person immediately after giving effect to such transaction; or

(4) the adoption by the Company’s shareholders of a plan relating to the Company’s liquidation or dissolution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to involve a change of control under clause (2) above if (1) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of a holding company and (2)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no person (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company.

“Change of Control Triggering Event” means, with respect to the applicable series of Notes, the Notes cease to be rated Investment Grade by each of the Rating Agencies on any date during the period (the “Trigger Period”) commencing 60 days prior to the first public announcement by the Company of any Change of Control (or pending Change of Control) and ending 60 days following consummation of such Change of Control (which Trigger Period will be extended following consummation of a Change of Control for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that it is considering a possible ratings change). However, a Change of Control Triggering Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Change of Control Triggering Event for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Triggering Event) if the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply do not announce or publicly confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at the Company’s request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the Change of Control Triggering Event). If a Rating Agency is not providing a rating for such Notes at the commencement of any Trigger Period, the Notes will be deemed to have ceased to be rated Investment Grade by such Rating Agency during that Trigger Period.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been consummated.

“Investment Grade” means a rating of Baa3 or better by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Moody’s) and a rating of BBB- or better by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of S&P), and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any replacement rating agency or rating agencies selected by the Company under the circumstances permitting the Company to select a replacement rating agency and in the manner for selecting a replacement rating agency, in each case as set forth in the definition of “Rating Agency.”

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation, and its successors.

“Person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, business trust, association, joint-stock company, joint venture, trust, incorporated or unincorporated organization or government or any agency or political subdivision thereof.

“Rating Agency” means each of Moody’s and S&P; provided, that if any of Moody’s or S&P ceases to provide rating services to issuers or investors, we may appoint another “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” as defined under Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act as a replacement for such Rating Agency; provided, that the Company shall give notice of such appointment to the Trustee.

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., and its successors.

“Voting Stock” of any specified Person as of any date means the capital stock of such Person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such Person.

The Events of Default of Section 7.01 of the Indenture will apply to the Notes, except as otherwise described below. For a description of the Events of Default of Section 7.01 of the Indenture, see “Description of the Debt Securities—Events of Default” in the Prospectus dated February 22, 2012 (the “Prospectus”). In lieu of the fifth Event of Default specified in that section of the Prospectus, the following Event of Default will apply to the Notes:

Ÿ an Event of Default with respect to any other series of debt securities issued under the Indenture or an uncured or unwaived failure to pay principal of or interest on any of the Company’s other obligations for borrowed money beyond any period of grace with respect thereto if: (a) the aggregate principal amount of any such obligation is in excess of $200,000,000; and (b) the default in payment is not being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings.

The definitions of Article One of the Indenture will apply to the Notes, except to the extent the definitions set forth below differ from such Indenture definitions. For a description of the definitions of Article One of the Indenture, see “Description of the Debt Securities—Covenants Applicable to Senior Debt Securities—Certain Definitions” in the Prospectus.

“corporation” means, unless the context requires otherwise, any Person other than an individual.

The Notes shall not be entitled to any sinking fund.

The Notes shall be issuable in United States dollars.

Section 13.02 of the Indenture shall apply to the Notes.

Payments of principal of and interest on the Notes shall be payable in United States dollars.

The Notes shall be issued in the form of fully registered Global Debt Securities in the forms attached hereto as Annex A, Annex B, Annex C and Annex D which will be deposited with the Trustee as custodian for the Depository Trust Company (the “Depositary”) and registered in the name of “Cede & Co.,” as the nominee of the Depositary. Principal of and interest payments on the Notes of each series will be made to the Depositary or its nominee. If at any time the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Notes or if at any time the Depositary for the Notes shall no longer be eligible or in good standing under the Exchange Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the Notes. If a successor Depositary for the Notes is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Company will issue Notes in definitive form in exchange for the Global Debt Security representing Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Notes represented by such Global Debt Security in exchange for the Notes represented by such Global Debt Security.

The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in denominations of U.S.$2,000 and any integral multiples of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes that are of other authorized denominations.

Furthermore, we hereby approve the forms of and authorize the execution and delivery of the Notes.

Capitalized terms used herein which are defined in the Indenture are used herein as so defined.

This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof limited in aggregate principal amount to $300,000,000, except that the Company may, without the consent of the Holders, “reopen” the series and issue more notes that have the same ranking, interest rate, maturity date and other terms as this Note.

All or a portion of the Notes may be redeemed by the Company at any time or from time to time. The Redemption Price for the Notes to be redeemed on any Redemption Date will be equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed on the Redemption Date and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes being redeemed on that Redemption Date (not including any portion of any payments of interest accrued to the Redemption Date), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below), plus 10 basis points, plus in either of case (i) or (ii) above, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes being redeemed to the Redemption Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice of any redemption may, in the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent. If fewer than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee will select, not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, the particular Notes or portions thereof for redemption from the outstanding not previously called by such method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate.

The Company shall redeem the Notes if the acquisition of Air Distribution Technologies is not consummated on or prior to December 31, 2014 or the acquisition agreement is terminated at any time prior thereto other than in connection with the consummation of the acquisition and is not otherwise amended or replaced, at 101% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes to the Redemption Date.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the U.S. Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of Debt Securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding the Redemption Date.

The Company shall have no obligation to redeem or purchase the Notes pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous provision.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Notes, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes, each Holder of Notes will have the right to require the Company to purchase all or a portion of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to but not including the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due and owing on the relevant Interest Payment Date. The Change of Control Offer will be made in accordance with the terms specified in the Indenture.

Notes to be exchanged shall be surrendered at any office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose, and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor the Notes which the Holder making the exchange shall be entitled to receive. Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note at any such office or agency, the Company shall execute and register and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Note for an equal aggregate amount. Registration or registration of transfer of any Note by the Debt Security Registrar (initially U.S. Bank National Association) in the registry books maintained by such Debt Security Registrar in The City of New York, New York, and delivery of such Note, duly authenticated, shall be deemed to complete the registration or registration of transfer of such Note.

No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer, but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

This Note is in the form of a Global Security as provided in the Indenture. If at any time the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for this Note or if at any time the Depositary for the Notes shall no longer be eligible or in good standing under the Exchange Act, or other applicable statute or regulation, the Company shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to this Note.
