| DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN | DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN The following description of the Johnson Controls Federal Systems, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Summary Plan Description provided to all participants for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions. GENERAL The Plan is a defined contribution plan adopted effective January 1, 2005 for participation by eligible employees of Johnson Controls Federal Systems, Inc. and related entities (the "Company"). The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). The Plan is administered by the Employee Benefits Policy Committee appointed by the Company. CONTRIBUTIONS Participants in certain union groups can designate pre-tax and/or Roth (not to exceed 25%) or after-tax contributions (not to exceed 10%) of their eligible gross annual eligible compensation. All other participants can designate either pre-tax and/or Roth or after-tax contributions not to exceed 35% of their gross annual eligible compensation. The Company makes contributions to the Plan on behalf of the participants as determined by their benefit schedule. Participants may also contribute amounts representing rollover distributions from other employers’ qualified retirement plans. Participant contributions are deposited in the investment funds of their choice. Participants may reallocate their account balances among the available investment funds at any time in increments of one percent (1%). For certain participant groups, if the participant does not make an election to participate in the Plan within 60 days of becoming eligible, the participant will be automatically enrolled to make pre-tax contributions depending on their employment classification. If automatically enrolled, the participant's contributions will be invested in a target date fund based on their birth date and the fund's target retirement date. Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings (losses) thereon. A participant's interest in employer contributions plus actual earnings (losses) thereon vest at the rate of twenty percent (20%) per year for each year of employment with the Company or any affiliated company, fully vesting after five years of service. A participant becomes fully vested on termination of service due to death, disability or retirement. If employment terminates other than by reason of retirement, death or total and permanent disability and the participant is not reemployed by the Company or its affiliates within 72 months of that date, the participant's interest in the non-vested portion of the employer contributions is forfeited. The Company may apply any forfeited amounts to reduce future employer contributions to the Plan and to pay Plan expenses. PAYMENT OF BENEFITS On termination of service due to death, disability or retirement, a participant may elect to receive a lump-sum amount equal to the value of the participant's interest in his or her account. For termination of service for other reasons, a participant may receive the value of the vested interest in his or her account as a lump-sum distribution. In addition, participants may be able to take voluntary, in-service withdrawals, which include hardship withdrawals. Benefit payments are recorded when paid. PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS Participant recordkeeping is performed by Fidelity Investments Institutional Retirement Services Company ("Fidelity"). NOTES RECEIVABLE FROM PARTICIPANTS Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 and up to a maximum of $50,000 or fifty percent (50%) of their account balance, whichever is less. Loans are subject to certain limitations based on the Plan document. Only two loans per participant may be outstanding at any time. Each loan may be for a term up to five years. Regular payroll deductions are required to repay a loan. Each loan's interest rate is fixed at the prime rate at the beginning of the calendar quarter in which it is issued. Interest rates range between 3.25% and 8.50% as of December 31, 2025. At termination, participants may continue to make monthly loan payments until the balances of any loans are paid off. The notes receivable from participants are measured at their unpaid principal balances plus accrued but unpaid interest. At the time of borrowing, the assets of the participant are sold proportionally to finance the loan. The loan is collateralized by the participant's assets in the Plan. Should a participant fail to make a loan payment when due (including retirement or termination), the participant is given a grace period to cure the delinquency through the end of the calendar quarter following the calendar quarter in which the default arose. If the participant fails to cure the delinquency, a deemed distribution occurs in accordance with the provisions of the Plan document. The Plan has not made a provision for uncollectible loans as there are none. ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES Administrative expenses are paid by the Plan, as allowed by Plan provisions, with all remaining expenses paid by the Company.
