Explanatory Note
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) is being filed as an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Aon plc (the “Company”) on June 27, 2017 (the “Original 8-K”). The Original 8-K was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to report the results of the matters submitted to a vote by the Company’s shareholders at the Company’s 2017 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 23, 2017 (the “Annual Meeting”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose, in accordance with Item 5.07(d) of Form 8-K, the Company’s decision as to how frequently the Company will hold future shareholder advisory votes regarding named executive officer compensation. Except as set forth herein, no other modifications have been made to the Original 8-K.
Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders voted on, among other matters, an advisory proposal concerning the frequency of future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation. As reported in the Original 8-K, a majority of the votes cast by the shareholders were in favor of holding future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation once every year. Based on these results, the Company intends to hold the advisory vote on named executive officer compensation once every year. The Company intends to continue holding such advisory votes once every year until the next required vote on the frequency of advisory votes on named executive officer compensation.
