SUPPLEMENT A
SPECIAL PROVISIONS IN CONNECTION WITH PLAN SPIN-OFF
1.
Pursuant to the purchase agreement entered into between Aon plc and Tempo Acquisition, LLC dated as of February 9, 2017 (the “Purchase Agreement”), the Company’s obligations and liabilities under the Plan with respect to all Participants who are (or will be) actively employed by a business that is being sold pursuant to the Purchase Agreement as of the closing date of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (such Participants, “Transferred Participants,” and such closing date, the “Closing Date”) shall be transferred to, and assumed by, Hewitt Associates LLC (“Newco”) effective as of the Closing Date. As of the Closing Date, Transferred Participants shall cease participating in the Plan. No Transferred Participant shall be treated as experiencing a separation from service for purposes of the Plan solely by reason of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.
2.
Such transfer described in paragraph 1 shall include, with respect to each Transferred Participant, his or her account balances, distribution elections, and investment elections or defaults, except as otherwise set forth in this paragraph 2. With respect to any Transferred Participant who has a balance in the Aon Common Stock Account, such balance shall be transferred to the Supplemental Match Account immediately prior the Closing Date and invested in accordance with Section 4.01 as if no investment election had been received from the Participant. With respect to any Transferred Participant who has a balance in the Aon Money Market Account, such balance shall be transferred to the Supplemental Match Account immediately prior to the Closing Date and invested in in the same investment option(s) that such balance was invested immediately prior to the transfer. For the avoidance of doubt, no Aon Common Stock Account or Aon Money Market Account balances shall be transferred to, or assumed by, Newco in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.
3.
As of the Closing Date, the Company shall have no further liabilities and responsibilities with respect to the benefits accrued by the Transferred Participants under the Plan, and such transfer shall be in full discharge of such liabilities and responsibilities.
