Nothing in this Agreement will require the Company to establish, maintain, or continue any of the benefits already in existence or hereafter adopted for employees of the Company, and nothing in this Agreement will restrict the right of the Company to amend, modify, or terminate such programs.

Transition Duties. During the Transition Period, Executive shall continue to perform his current duties and responsibilities as Executive Vice President, General Counsel, and Company Secretary, and during the SLA Period, the Executive will focus his efforts on transition of his duties and responsibilities by making himself available as needed from time-to-time as directed by the CEO (collectively, the “Duties and Responsibilities”). The Duties and Responsibilities shall include Executive serving on the Company’s Governance and Policy Committee and Executive Committee during the Transition Period; provided, however, that during the Transition Period and the SLA Period Executive shall not be subject to the Share Ownership Guidelines applicable to members of the Governance and Policy Committee or Executive Committee.

Transition Expense Policy. During the Transition Period, Executive shall continue to be subject to the Company’s standard expense policy and travel management programs, and during the SLA Period, Executive shall not be subject to, or able to incur or submit expenses under, the Company’s standard expense policy or travel management programs, except for expenses related to: (i) Executive’s end of his international assignment under the Assignment Letter, including, without limitation, travel by Executive and his spouse to and from London to wind down matters related to the international assignment, (ii) expenses necessary to fulfill his Duties and Responsibilities set forth in paragraph 2(c), which for the avoidance of doubt may include expenses associated with activities of non-profits to which the Company makes charitable contributions; or (iii) expenses authorized in advance by a member of Aon’s Governance and Policy Committee.

International Assignment. Executive’s enhanced tax preparation, financial planning benefits (and all tax gross-ups thereon), and tax equalization benefits under the Assignment Letter will continue for all periods in which Executive receives income attributable to the period of his international assignment under the Assignment Letter.

Executive’s other benefits under

Transition Bonus. In exchange for the Executive carrying out the Duties and Responsibilities and foregoing other paid employment opportunities during the Transition Period, as well as the Employee agreeing to the Restrictive Covenants in Section 6, and executing and returning (and not revoking) a general release of claims agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Release”) within 21 calendar days after, but not before, the Separation Date), he shall receive a special cash bonus in the amount of $1,800,000 (the “Transition Bonus”), subject to applicable withholdings, which will be payable in the following installments: (i) $900,000 payable on June 30, 2019; and (ii) $900,000 payable on December 31, 2019.

As an additional relocation benefit, Executive shall be entitled to price protection for the sale of Executive’s Illinois residence of up to $300,000 gross. Such amount will be calculated based on the extent to which the proceeds from the sale of Executive’s Illinois residence (after the broker’s fee, building transfer charge and other closing fees and costs) is less than the original purchase price, including closing costs, plus $100,000, representing renovation costs at purchase.

Separation.

Separation on the Separation Date. This Agreement and the Executive’s employment thereunder will terminate on the Separation Date. Without limiting the Executive’s entitlement to the payments and benefits provided in this Agreement, such termination of the Executive’s employment on the Separation Date shall be deemed a termination of employment by mutual consent between the Executive and the Company or without cause if more favorable to the Executive on the Separation Date. The Company will pay the Executive all accrued but unpaid base salary and vested benefits as of the Separation Date, payable in accordance with the applicable Company policy, plan, or program, and unreimbursed business expenses incurred in accordance with Sections 2(d) and 2(e). Executive’s eligibility to participate in the Company’s employee benefit plans generally available to senior employees of the Company, including without limitation health care plans, shall terminate as of the Separation Date, subject to any applicable rights pursuant to COBRA.

The notice will specify the termination date, provided that the Company may require the Executive to leave Company premises immediately upon giving of notice. In the event of such a termination, the Company will pay the Executive all accrued but unpaid Base Salary and vested benefits as of the termination date, payable in accordance with the applicable Company policy, plan, or program, and any unreimbursed business expenses incurred in accordance with Sections 2(d) and 2(e).

For Cause. During the Transition Period and the SLA Period, the Company may terminate this Agreement for Cause, by written notice of termination given to the Executive setting forth the basis for such termination and giving Executive an opportunity to cure within thirty (30) days. If the Executive does not effect a cure within this time period, as determined by the Company in its reasonable discretion, the termination shall become effective. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” will mean the Executive’s: (i) performing a deliberate act of dishonesty, fraud, theft, embezzlement, or misappropriation involving the Executive’s employment with the Company, or breach of the duty of loyalty to the Company; (ii) performing an act of race, sex, national origin, religion, disability, or age-based discrimination, or sexual harassment, which after investigation, counsel to the Company reasonably concludes will result in liability being imposed on the Company and/or the Executive; (iii) material violation of Company policies and procedures including, but not limited to, the Aon Code of Business Conduct; (iv) material non-compliance with the terms of this Agreement, including without limitation the non-disparagement obligations of Section 9(a), or any other agreement between the Executive and Aon; or (v) performing any criminal act resulting in a criminal felony charge brought against the Executive or a criminal conviction of the Executive (other than a conviction of a minor traffic violation). In the event of a termination for Cause, the Company will only be required to pay or provide to the Executive all accrued but unpaid Base Salary and vested benefits as of the date of such termination, payable in accordance with the applicable Company policy, plan, or program. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, “Cause” as used in this Section or elsewhere in any agreements between Company and Executive shall not be interpreted to include any criminal charges or claims levied against Executive in connection with Aon’s operations in Bolivia or its dispute with former Aon employee Jose Luis Contreras Cabezas.

Effecting Termination on the Separation Date. As of the Separation Date, the Executive agrees that the Secretary of the Company may, as an irrevocable proxy and in the Executive’s name and stead, execute all documents and things which the Company deems necessary and desirable to effect the Executive’s resignation as an officer or director of the Company or any of its affiliates, parent companies, or subsidiaries (collectively and individually, “Aon”).

Obligations Upon Separation. Upon the Separation Date, the obligations of the parties under this Agreement and the Prior Agreements will cease, except as otherwise explicitly set forth in this Agreement (including without limitation under Sections 2, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 9). The Executive will continue to be indemnified and held harmless to the maximum extent provided under the Company’s charter, by-laws and applicable law for his acts and omissions to act through the Separation Date, which indemnification shall survive his termination of employment. Executive will continue to be insured under policies of directors and officers liability insurance to the fullest extent provided for former officers or directors under the applicable policy(ies); provided, such insurance coverage may be terminated if Aon terminates coverage generally for all officers and directors. Anything in this Agreement or its Exhibits to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Executive’s right to make any claim under any director and officer liability insurance coverage provided by the Company for acts or omissions by Executive while an executive officer of the Company or any affiliate shall survive the Separation Date; and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, Executive shall continue to be entitled to indemnification in connection with the dispute between the Company and Jose Luis Contreras Cabezas, including indemnification for any criminal charges or claims in connection with, or related to, such dispute.

Copy of Restrictive Covenants. The Executive agrees that, prior to the commencement of any new employment in the Business (as defined below), the Executive will furnish the prospective new employer with a complete and accurate copy of the text of the restrictive covenant obligation the Executive has to Aon (the “Restrictive Covenant Text”) under Section 6 of this Agreement. The Executive also agrees that the Company may advise any prospective new employer of the Executive of the existence and terms of such restrictive covenants and furnish the prospective new employer with a copy of the Restrictive Covenant Text.

Equity Awards. For the avoidance of doubt, the Executive’s equity awards issued under the Aon plc Amended and Restated 2011 Incentive Plan (the “2011 Incentive Plan”) will continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the applicable plan documents, provided that, solely and exclusively for purposes of determining vesting treatment under the 2011 Incentive Plan, the Executive’s termination of employment on the Separation Date shall be considered a retirement or as without cause if more favorable to the Executive and effective on the Separation Date.

Acknowledgments. The Executive understands and agrees that he would not otherwise be eligible for, or entitled to, any of the payments or other employment benefits set forth in Section 2 above, if he did not enter into this Agreement. Further, by signing this Agreement, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that he is not entitled to, and waives any claims with respect to, any additional payments and/or benefits that are not specifically identified in this Agreement; this acknowledgement and waiver includes, but is not limited to, any benefits under the Prior Employment Agreement, the Assignment Letter, the EC Plan, any additional payments related to annual incentive plans, and/or any applicable Aon bonus or incentive plan, except for those benefits in which he has a vested right pursuant to the terms of the applicable incentive, retirement, and other employee benefit plans in which he is a participant and applicable law. Executive also agrees that, within 21 calendar days after, but not before, the Separation Date, he will execute a release in the form of Exhibit A.

Confidential Information. The Executive acknowledges that Aon’s business depends to a significant degree upon the possession of confidential, proprietary and trade secret information which is not generally known to others, and that the profitability of the Business of Aon requires that this information remain proprietary to Aon. The Executive recognizes that, by virtue of the Executive’s employment by the Company and/or its affiliates, and to assist the Executive in the solicitation, production and servicing of client business, the Executive has had otherwise prohibited access to such information.

The Executive will not disclose or use during after his employment, any Confidential Information, except as required in the course of his employment or as provided by applicable law or in Section 10 below.

Noncompetition. The Executive agrees that for a period of two years after the Separation Date (the “Noncompetition Period”) the Executive will not work in any manner, directly or indirectly, through any person, firm or corporation, alone or as a member of a partnership or as an officer, director, stockholder, investor, or employee of, or as a consultant for the following entities, or any affiliates thereof: Marsh & McLennan Companies, Arthur J. Gallagher & Co., Jardine Lloyd Thompson Group plc, Lockton Companies, Inc., Alliant Insurance Services, Inc., and Willis Towers Watson.

Nonsolicitation. The Executive further agrees that during the Noncompetition Period, the Executive will not, without the advance written consent of the Company’s Presidents or General Counsel, in any manner, directly or indirectly, induce or attempt to induce any client or any client-facing or managerial employee of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates, to terminate or abandon their relationship or employment with the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates for any purpose whatsoever.

Other Restrictive Covenants. The Executive further acknowledges and agrees that, in addition to the provisions of this Section 6, he remains subject to certain restrictive covenants by virtue of his receipt of certain stock benefits under the 2011 Incentive Plan.

Inventions. The Executive hereby assigns to the Company the Executive’s entire right, title and interest in and to all discoveries and improvements, patentable or otherwise, trade secrets and ideas, writings and copyrightable material, which may be conceived by the Executive or developed or acquired by the Executive during the Executive’s employment and which may pertain directly or indirectly to the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, and which the Executive hereby agrees is work for hire performed in the scope of the Executive’s employment. The Executive agrees to disclose fully all such developments to the Company upon its request, which disclosure will be made in writing promptly following any such request. The Executive will upon the Company’s request, execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company all instruments and do all other acts which are necessary or desirable to enable the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to file and prosecute applications for, and to acquire, maintain and enforce, all patents, trademarks, and copyrights in all countries. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Executive hereby is and has been notified by the Company, and understands, that the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e) do not apply to an invention for which no equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secret information of the Company or any of its parent companies, subsidiaries or other affiliates was used and which was developed entirely on the Executive’s own time, unless: (i) the invention relates (x) to the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or other affiliates or (y) to the Company’s or any of its subsidiaries’ or other affiliates’ actual or demonstrably anticipated research and development, or (ii) the invention results from any work performed by the Executive for the Company or any of its subsidiaries or other affiliates.

Exceptions. Nothing in this Section 6 will prohibit the Executive from being (i) a stockholder in a mutual fund or a diversified investment company; (ii) a passive owner of not more than two percent of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation, any securities of which are publicly traded, so long as the Executive has no active participation in the business of such corporation; and (iii) a member of boards of directors of public for-profit companies or non-profit organizations that are not engaged in the Company’s Business, as that term is defined in the Leadership Performance Program awards under the 2011 Incentive Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, under that definition, “Business” shall mean the business of providing conventional and alternative risk management products and services covering the business of insurance brokerage, reinsurance brokerage, benefits consulting, compensation consulting, human resources consulting, human resources and benefits outsourcing management, investigatory and security consulting, managing underwriting and related services, including accounting, actuarial, claims management and handling, and information systems on behalf of commercial and individual clients which are national and international and are not confined to any geographic area.

Reformation. If, at any time of enforcement of this Section 6, a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope, or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the stated period, scope or area and that the court will be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope, and area permitted by law. This Agreement will not authorize a court to increase or broaden any of the restrictions of this Section 6.

Consideration; Breach. The Company and the Executive agree that the payments to be made by the Company to the Executive pursuant to Section 2 hereof will be made and provided expressly in consideration of the Executive’s agreements contained in, and continued compliance with, this Section 6. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company would not have agreed to provide any of the payments in Section 2 but for the Executive’s promises in this Section 6. In the event that the Executive has committed a material breach of any provision of this Section 6, on written notice to the Executive setting forth the basis for such determination, such notice provided to the Executive 21 days in advance of any action pursuant to this Section 6(i) or within seven days of the Company becoming aware of the action constituting a material breach, whichever is later, without limiting or otherwise affecting any other available remedy to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, the Company will be entitled, subject to the duty of good faith, immediately to terminate making all remaining payments pursuant to Section 2 hereof, and upon such termination the Company will have no further liability to the Executive under this Agreement; provided, however, that if a court of law determines that no such material breach occurred, the Company then will be obligated to make such payments in a timely manner together with interest compounded monthly at the prime rate (as published in The Wall Street Journal online) as in effect from time to time commencing on the date such payments cease . The Executive further acknowledges and agrees that a material breach by him of any provision of Section 6 of this Agreement will result in immediate and irreparable harm to the Company and any of its subsidiaries or affiliates for which full damages cannot readily be calculated and for which damages are an inadequate remedy. Accordingly, the Executive agrees that the Company and its affiliates shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent any such actual or threatened breach or any continuing breach by the Executive (without posting a bond or other security), without limiting any other remedies that may be available to them. The parties agree that the prevailing party in any such dispute shall be entitled to reimbursement from the other party of all costs and expenditures, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, incurred in connection with any action relating to enforcement of Section 6 of this Agreement.

Return of Property. Upon the Separation Date or upon the Company’s request (whichever is earlier), the Executive will promptly return to the Company all Confidential Information and all materials and all copies or tangible embodiments of materials involving Confidential Information, and all other Aon property, in the Executive’s possession or control, except as otherwise provided by law or in Section 10 below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall retain his phone, phone number, iPad, and laptop, subject to satisfaction of necessary security protocols.

Mergers and Consolidations; Assignability. The rights and obligations under this Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns so long as any assignee, successor, or transferee of the Company has provided an express written and unconditional assumption of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement. This Agreement will not be assignable by the Executive, but in the event of the Executive’s death it will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Executive’s legal representatives to the extent required to effectuate its terms. In the event of the Executive’s death after terminating employment and before all payments and benefits otherwise due to him had been paid to him (had he not died), such amounts will be paid to the Executive’s estate (or any beneficiary designated by Executive prior to his death).

For and in consideration of the payments and benefits provided, or to be provided, to the Executive under this Agreement, the Executive, and anyone claiming through him or on his behalf, hereby waives and releases the Released Parties (as defined below) with respect to any and all claims, whether currently known or unknown, that the Executive now has or ever has had against a Released Party arising from or related to any act, omission, or thing occurring or existing at any time prior to or on the date on which the Executive signs this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. “Released Parties” include (A) the Company and its past, present, and future parents, divisions, subsidiaries, partnerships, affiliates, and other related entities, (B) each of the foregoing entities’ and persons’ past, present, and future owners, trustees, fiduciaries, administrators, shareholders, directors, officers, partners, members, associates, agents, executives, employees, and attorneys, and (C) the predecessors, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing persons and entities.

The time and form of payment of incentive compensation, disability benefits, severance payments, expense reimbursements and payments of in-kind benefits described herein will be made in accordance with the applicable sections of this Agreement, provided that with respect to termination of employment for reasons other than death, the payment at such time can be characterized as a “short-term deferral” for purposes of Code Section 409A or as otherwise exempt from the provisions of Code Section 409A, or if any portion of the payment cannot be so characterized, and the Executive is a “specified employee” under Code Section 409A, such portion of the payment will be delayed until the earlier to occur of the Executive’s death or the date that is six months and one day following the Executive’s termination of employment (the “Delay Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this section will be paid or reimbursed to the Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments due under this Agreement will be payable at the same time and in the same form as such amounts would have been paid. Further, if the Executive is a “specified employee” and if any equity-based awards granted to the Executive by the Company, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, continue to vest upon the Executive’s termination of employment, and are deemed a “deferral of compensation” (as such term is described under Code Section 409A), the equity-based awards will not be settled or released until the expiration of the Delay Period.

Reimbursements (including reasonable moving expenses) that may be excluded from Section 409A as separation pay shall be excluded from Section 409A to the maximum extent possible; such expenses shall be incurred before the end of the second taxable year following the Executive’s separation from service and reimbursed no later than the end of the third taxable year following separation from service. All other reimbursements provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirement that (A) any reimbursement is for expenses actually incurred during the Executive’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement), (B) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year, (C) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the taxable year following the year in which the expense is incurred, and (D) the right to reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “retirement,” “termination of employment,” “terminated,” “termination,” “this Agreement will be terminated” and variations thereof, as used in this Agreement, are intended to mean a termination of employment that constitutes a “separation from service” under Code Section 409A.

If the sixty (60)-day period following a “separation from service” begins in one calendar year and ends in a second calendar year (a “Crossover 60-Day Period”) and if there are payments due the Executive that are subject to Code Section 409A (and not exempt from Code Section 409A) that are: (i) conditioned on the Executive signing and not revoking a release of claims and (ii) otherwise due to be paid during the portion of the Crossover 60-Day Period that falls within the first year, then such payments will be delayed and paid in a lump sum during the portion of the Crossover 60-Day Period that falls within the second year.

Although the Company intends to administer the Agreement so that it will comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A, the Company does not represent or warrant that the Agreement will comply with Code Section 409A or any other provision of federal, state, local, or non-United States law. Neither the Company, its subsidiaries, nor their respective directors, officers, Executives or advisers will be liable to the Executive (or any other individual claiming a benefit through the Executive) for any tax, interest, or penalties the Executive may owe as a result of compensation paid under the Agreement, and the Company and its subsidiaries will have no obligation to indemnify or otherwise protect the Executive from the obligation to pay any taxes pursuant to Code Section 409A.

The provisions of this Agreement will be construed in a manner in favor of complying with any applicable requirements of Code Section 409A to avoid taxation under Code Section 409A. If any compensation or benefits provided by this Agreement result in the application of Code Section 409A, the Company will modify this Agreement in the least restrictive manner necessary in order to comply with the provisions of Code Section 409A, other applicable provisions of the Code and/or any rules, regulations or other regulatory guidance issued under such statutory provisions and, in each case, without material diminution in the value of the payments or benefits to the Executive.
