WTW President Julie Gebauer Jarecke Receives 12.628-Share Award

What Happened

• Julie J. Gebauer Jarecke, President — Health, Wealth & Career at Willis Towers Watson plc (WTW), was granted 12.628 shares (reported as a derivative award) on August 13, 2026. The reported acquisition price is $0.00, so no cash was paid in this transaction and the immediate reported value is $0. This is an award/settlement event (transaction code A), not an open-market purchase or sale.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-08-13; Form filed: 2026-08-17 (appears later than the usual two-business-day Form 4 deadline).
• Security: 12.628 restricted share units / derivative shares; price reported $0.00.
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing.
• Footnote F1: These vested units under the Willis Towers Watson Non-Qualified Stable Value Excess Plan for U.S. Employees will settle into ordinary WTW shares (1:1) on the first business day of the month after the earlier of (i) six months following separation from service or (ii) 30 days after death.
• Footnote F2: The units include restricted share units credited by the Plan's accrual formula, net of units acquired via the participant's contribution under the Plan.

Context

• This is a grant/award of restricted-share units (a derivative award) that will convert to ordinary shares according to the Plan’s settlement rules; it is not an immediate market purchase or sale. Such awards reflect compensation/plan mechanics rather than an explicit buy/sell signal. The filing date suggests the Form 4 was submitted after the standard two-business-day window, which is a timeliness issue typically noted by regulators but does not by itself indicate misconduct.
