18. Subsequent Event - Disposition of Benefits Administration and Business Process Outsourcing
On February 9, 2017, Aon entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Tempo Acquisition, LLC (the “Buyer”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Aon has agreed to sell its benefits administration and business process outsourcing business (the “Tempo Business”) to the Buyer, an entity formed and controlled by affiliates of The Blackstone Group L.P. (the “Sponsor”), and certain designated purchasers that are direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Buyer.
The Tempo Business develops and implements software and services solutions, and provides to clients, health and welfare and retirement benefits administration services, hosted and cloud-based human resources business process outsourcing administration and implementation services, and other related communications consulting services.
111
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, the Buyer has agreed to purchase all of the outstanding equity interests of the Tempo Business, plus certain related assets, for a purchase price of (i) $4.3 billion in cash payable at closing, subject to customary adjustments set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) deferred consideration of up to $500 million , plus the assumption of certain liabilities (the “Transaction”). Under the Purchase Agreement, the deferred consideration is payable in cash in an amount equal to 20% of the incremental cash proceeds realized by the affiliates of the Sponsor and certain other equityholders of the Buyer from a liquidity event if (i) total realized cash proceeds to the Sponsor and such other equityholders over the life of their respective investments upon the closing of the Transaction (inclusive of all interim distributions) exceeds 2.25 times the amount of their equity investments in the Buyer at the closing of the Transaction and (ii) the internal rate of return over the life of their respective investments (inclusive of all interim distributions) exceeds 15% .
The completion of the Transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among others: (i) the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended; and (ii) the receipt of all approvals and the filing of all applicable filings under any relevant foreign jurisdictions that are required to be made or obtained as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The Buyer’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement are not conditioned on receipt of financing; however, the Buyer is not required to complete the Transaction until after the completion of a customary fifteen days consecutive business-day marketing period to commence after the Company has provided required financial information to the Buyer. The Buyer has obtained an equity commitment (“Equity Commitment”) from affiliates of the Sponsor and debt financing commitments (“Debt Commitments”) from BofA Merrill Lynch, Barclays, Credit Suisse, Citigroup, Macquarie, Deutsche Bank, and Morgan Stanley, together with certain of their respective affiliates. The aggregate proceeds of the Equity Commitment and the Debt Commitments will be used by the Buyer (i) to pay the Purchase Price, and (ii) to pay fees and expenses incurred by the Buyer in connection with the Transaction.
The Purchase Agreement provides that the Buyer will be required to pay to Aon a $215 million termination fee, together with the reimbursement of certain expenses, if the Purchase Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances. Both Aon and the Buyer have the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement if the closing has not occurred on or before August 9, 2017. An affiliate of the Sponsor has guaranteed the payment of the termination fee to the Company, if and when due, under the Purchase Agreement, together with certain other reimbursement obligations of the Buyer under the Purchase Agreement.
Both Aon and the Buyer have agreed to indemnify each other for losses arising from certain breaches of the Purchase Agreement and for certain other liabilities, subject to certain limitations.
Aon and the Buyer have made representations and warranties and have agreed to covenants related to the Tempo Business and the Transaction. Between the date of the Purchase Agreement and the closing of the Transaction, Aon has agreed to operate the Tempo Business in the ordinary course substantially as operated immediately prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement and to preserve the goodwill of the suppliers, contractors, licensors, employees, customers, and distributors of, and others having business relations with the Tempo Business.
Aon and the Buyer have agreed to enter into certain Transaction-related agreements at the closing, including two commercial agreements, a transition services agreement, certain intellectual property license agreements, sub-leases and other customary agreements. Aon will continue to be a significant client of the Tempo Business and the Tempo Business has agreed to use Aon for its broking and other services.
In connection with the Transaction, the Company expects to implement a cost reduction program.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report of December 31, 2016 . Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded as of December 31, 2016 that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to Aon, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to Aon’s management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management of Aon plc is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 . In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in the Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013 Framework) . Based on this assessment, management has concluded our internal control over financial reporting is effective as of December 31, 2016 .
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 has been audited by Ernst & Young, LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report titled “Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.”
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No changes in Aon’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during 2016 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, Aon’s internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Board of Directors and Shareholders
Aon plc
We have audited Aon plc’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 , based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 Framework) (the COSO criteria). Aon plc’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, Aon plc maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 , based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the 2016 consolidated financial statements of Aon plc and our report dated February 23, 2017 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
