Explanation of responses
- F1Represents Class A Ordinary Shares issued upon the settlement of performance share units originally granted approximately three years ago under the eighth cycle of the Leadership Performance Program ("LPP8") on March 14, 2013. The number of shares issued was determined by the Organization and Compensation Committee of Aon's Board of Directors on February 18, 2016 based upon Aon's performance relative to a cumulative adjusted three year earnings per share target for the period beginning January 1, 2013 and ending December 31, 2015. In accordance with the terms of LPP8, and the achievement of specified growth targets under LPP8, settlement occurred at 200% of the original target value. The terms of LPP8 are more fully described in Aon plc's proxy statement filed with the SEC on June 24, 2014, and in the plan document filed as Exhibit 10.4 to Aon's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 filed with the SEC on May 1, 2013.
