Notes from time to time, at the redemption prices set forth in this prospectus supplement under "Description of the Securities--Optional Redemption."
Aon plc may also redeem all of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, to the redemption date in the event of certain changes in respect of withholding taxes applicable to the Notes or the Guarantee, as described in this

The Notes will be Aon plc's general unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and will rank equally with each other and with all of Aon plc's other
existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations. The Notes will not have the benefit of all of the covenants applicable to certain of
Aon plc's existing unsecured senior indebtedness. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to any secured indebtedness Aon plc may have or incur in
the future to the extent of the value of the assets securing any such indebtedness. The Notes will be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and all

Guarantee).

DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and any documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement or the
accompanying prospectus contain certain statements related to future results, or states our intentions, beliefs and expectations or predictions for the
future which are forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements
relate to expectations or forecasts of future events. They use words such as "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "project," "intend,"
"plan," "potential," and other similar terms, and future or conditional tense verbs like "could," "may," "might," "should," "will" and "would." You can
also identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. For example, we may use forward-
looking statements when addressing topics such as: market and industry conditions, including competitive and pricing trends; changes in our business
strategies and methods of generating revenue; the development and performance of our services and products; changes in the composition or level of our
revenues; our cost structure and the outcome of cost-saving or restructuring initiatives; the outcome of contingencies; dividend policy; the expected
impact of acquisitions and dispositions; pension obligations; cash flow and liquidity; expected effective tax rate; future actions by regulators; and the
impact of changes in accounting rules. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from either historical or anticipated results depending on a variety of factors. Potential factors that could impact results include:
·
general economic and political conditions in different countries in which we do business around the world;
·
changes in the competitive environment;
·
fluctuations in exchange and interest rates that could influence revenue and expense;
·
changes in global equity and fixed income markets that could affect the return on invested assets;
·
changes in the funding status of our various defined benefit pension plans and the impact of any increased pension funding resulting
from those changes;
·
the level of our debt limiting financial flexibility;
·
rating agency actions that could affect our ability to borrow funds;
·
the effect of the change in global headquarters and jurisdiction of incorporation, effective in April 2012, including differences in the
anticipated benefits;
·
changes in estimates or assumptions on our financial statements;
·
limits on our subsidiaries to make dividend and other payments to us;
·
the impact of lawsuits and other contingent liabilities and loss contingencies arising from errors and omissions and other claims against
us;
·
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/315293/000104746915004784/a2224745z424b5.htm[5/14/2015 5:18:53 PM]

the impact of, and potential challenges in complying with, legislation and regulation in the jurisdictions in which we operate, particularly
given the global scope of our businesses and the possibility of conflicting regulatory requirements across jurisdictions in which we do
business;
·
the impact of any investigations brought by regulatory authorities in the United States (the "U.S."), the United Kingdom (the "U.K.") and
other countries;
S-2
Table of Contents
·
the impact of any inquiries relating to compliance with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and non-U.S. anti-corruption laws and
with U.S. and non-U.S. trade sanctions regimes;
·
failure to protect intellectual property rights or allegations that we infringe on the intellectual property rights of others;
·
the effects of English law on our operating flexibility and the enforcement of judgments against us;
·
the failure to retain and attract qualified personnel;
·
international risks associated with our global operations;
·
the effect of natural or man-made disasters;
·
the potential of a system or network breach or disruption resulting in operational interruption or improper disclosure of personal data;
·
our ability to develop and implement new technology;
·
damage to our reputation among clients, markets or third parties;
·
the actions taken by third parties that perform aspects of our business operations and client services;
·
the extent to which we manage certain risks created in connection with the various services, including fiduciary and investments and
other advisory services and business process outsourcing services, among others, that we currently provide, or will provide in the future,
to clients;
·
our ability to grow, develop and integrate companies that we acquire or new lines of business;
·
changes in commercial property and casualty markets, commercial premium rates or methods of compensation;
·
changes in the health care system or our relationships with insurance carriers; and
·
our ability to implement initiatives intended to yield cost savings and the ability to achieve those cost savings.
Any or all of these forward-looking statements may turn out to be inaccurate, and there are no guarantees about our performance. The factors
identified above are not exhaustive. We and our subsidiaries operate in a dynamic business environment in which new risks may emerge frequently.
Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the dates on which they are made. We are
under no obligation (and expressly disclaim any obligation) to update or alter any forward-looking statement that we may make from time to time,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information about factors that could materially affect us, including our results
of operations and financial condition, is contained in the "Risk Factors" section in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2014, as filed with the SEC.

liabilities (excluding liabilities of Aon Delaware).

principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes, if any, to the redemption date. See
"Description of the Securities--Optional Tax Redemption."
Covenants

things, may include funding acquisition opportunities, repurchases of our Class A Ordinary Shares and

Selected Historical Financial Data
The following table sets forth the selected historical consolidated financial and operating data for Aon. The selected consolidated financial and
operating data as of and for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 have been derived from Aon's audited consolidated financial statements
and related notes contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, which is incorporated by reference into this
prospectus supplement. The selected consolidated financial and operating data as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 have been
derived from Aon's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in Aon's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarterly period ended March 31, 2015, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement, except that the balance sheet data as of
March 31, 2014 has been derived from Aon's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the quarterly period ended March 31, 2014, which has not been incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. The results for the three
months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year. Aon's unaudited
interim financial statements reflect all adjustments that management of Aon considers necessary for fair presentation of the financial position and results
of operations for such periods in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, which we refer to as GAAP.
Historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period. This selected consolidated financial and
operating data should be read in conjunction with Aon's audited consolidated financial statements, the notes related thereto and "Management's

RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described below, the risks set forth in the accompanying prospectus and the other information set forth in
this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein before making an investment
decision. These risks include those set forth in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 as
filed with the SEC, and include risks that could have a material adverse effect on our and Aon Delaware's financial condition, results of operations or
cash flows and which could, in turn, impact our and Aon Delaware's ability to perform our respective obligations under the Securities.
Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also impair our or Aon Delaware's
business operations. The events discussed in the risk factors below, or the risk factors in the accompanying prospectus or the documents incorporated
by reference herein or therein, may occur. If they do, our or Aon Delaware's business, results of operations or financial condition could be materially
adversely affected. In such an instance, the trading prices of our or Aon Delaware's securities, including the Securities, could decline and you might
lose all or part of your investment.
Risks Related to the Notes and the Guarantee
The Notes will be effectively subordinated to all of Aon plc's existing and future secured indebtedness (to the extent of the value of the assets
securing any such indebtedness) and to the existing and future indebtedness of Aon plc's subsidiaries (though you may have a direct claim
as to Aon Delaware by virtue of its obligations with respect to the Guarantee), and the Guarantee will be effectively subordinated to all of
Aon Delaware's existing and future secured indebtedness (to the extent of the value of the assets securing any such indebtedness) and to the
existing and future indebtedness of Aon Delaware's subsidiaries.
The Notes are not secured by any of Aon plc's assets or the assets of its subsidiaries (including Aon Delaware), and the Guarantee is not secured by
any of the assets of Aon Delaware or the assets of Aon Delaware's subsidiaries. As a result, the indebtedness represented by the Notes will effectively be
subordinated to any existing and future secured indebtedness of Aon plc or its subsidiaries and the indebtedness represented by the Guarantee will
effectively be subordinated to any existing and future secured indebtedness of Aon Delaware or its subsidiaries, in each case to the extent of the value
of the assets securing any such indebtedness. As of March 31, 2015, neither Aon plc nor Aon Delaware had any secured indebtedness for borrowed
money. As of March 31, 2015, Aon plc's subsidiaries (other than Aon Delaware) had approximately $1.6 billion of outstanding indebtedness and other
liabilities, including trade payables, pensions and other post-employment liabilities, other current liabilities and non-current liabilities, but excluding
intercompany liabilities and fiduciary liabilities. As of March 31, 2015, Aon Delaware's subsidiaries had approximately $1.4 billion of outstanding
