Item 8.01. Other Events.
With respect to the reorganization completed on April 2, 2012, which resulted in Aon plc (the “Company”) becoming the parent company of the Aon group (the “Merger”), the Company entered into the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) Pre-Filing Agreement Program (the “PFA Program”) to determine the application of section 7874(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, and the IRS regulations issued thereunder. On September 4, 2013, the Company received from the IRS an executed closing agreement under the PFA Program, which confirms the Merger did not cause the Company to be treated as a U.S. domestic corporation pursuant to section 7874(b).
