The number of shares issued was determined by the Organization and Compensation Committee of Aon's Board of Directors on February 16, 2012 based upon Aon's performance relative to a cumulative adjusted three year earnings per share target for the period beginning January 1, 2009 and ending December 31, 2011. In accordance with the terms of LPP4, and the achievement of specified growth targets under LPP4, settlement occurred at 124% of the original target value.
