Cai Jin-Yong 4

What Happened
Cai Jin‑Yong, a non‑employee director of Aon plc (AON), was granted 776 Class A ordinary shares on 2026‑06‑25 as part of the company’s annual director award program. To satisfy tax withholding obligations, 396.524 of those shares were withheld (disposed) at an implied price of $315.95, producing $125,282 in proceeds/withholding value. The grant itself is an acquisition (award), while the withholding is a routine disposition to cover taxes.

Context
This appears to be a routine annual equity award to a non‑employee director with a standard cashless‑style withholding to cover taxes, not an open‑market sale or purchase. Such withholding is common and typically reflects tax mechanics rather than a judgment about the company’s prospects.
