*This Schedule 13G is being filed by Aon Fiduciary Counselors in its capacity as independent fiduciary, pursuant to appointments by United Air Lines, Inc. ("United") to manage the respective UAL Stock Funds (the "Funds") which are investment options in the United Airlines Ground Employee 401(k) Plan, the United Airlines Management and Administrative 401(k) Plan, the United Airlines Flight Attendant 401(k) Plan and the United Airlines Pilot Directed Account Plan (collectively, the "Plans"), which appointments became effective on September 27, 2002. In connection with Aon Fiduciary Counselors being appointed as independent fiduciary, United has amended each of the Plans to confer upon Aon Fiduciary Counselors full authority to (i) continue to offer the Funds as investment options under the Plans on such terms and conditions as Aon Fiduciary Counselors deems prudent and in the interest of the Plans and their participants, including prohibiting or limiting (e.g., as a percentage of a participant's account) further purchases or holdings of interests in the Funds or increasing the Funds' holdings of cash or cash equivalent investments and (ii) terminate the availability of the Funds as investment options on such terms and conditions as Aon Fiduciary Counselors deems prudent and in the interest of the Plans and their participants (and notwithstanding any participant investment directions to the contrary), including determining the manner and timing of termination of the Funds and orderly liquidation of the assets thereof. Dividends paid on the Common Stock held by the Funds, if any, are generally reinvested and used to buy additional shares of Common Stock. The participants in the Plans are allowed to provide confidential directions on how the shares of Common Stock attributable to their accounts should be voted or tendered.
Each of Aon Fiduciary Counselors and Aon disclaims beneficial ownership of the foregoing 12,725,370 shares of Common Stock. The filing of this Schedule 13G should not be construed as an
admission that Aon Fiduciary Counselors or Aon is, for purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock covered by this Schedule 13G. This Schedule 13G is filed by Aon Fiduciary Counselors and Aon with respect to Common Stock held in the Funds on behalf of the participants in the Plans solely as a result of the appointment by United of Aon Fiduciary Counselors as independent fiduciary, as described in the foregoing paragraph. Neither Aon Fiduciary Counselors nor Aon has any economic interest in the shares of Common Stock held by the Plans. Each Plan participant has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock held in such participant's account (subject to the above described fiduciary powers of Aon Fiduciary Counselors). Further, each such participant has sole voting power over the securities held in such participant's account. To the knowledge of Aon Fiduciary Counselors and Aon, (i) no such participant has any of the foregoing rights with respect to more than five percent of the class of securities identified in Item 2(d) and (ii) there is no agreement or understanding among such persons to act together for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of any such shares.
Item 5. Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class:
NOT APPLICABLE
Item 6. Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person:
See Item 4.
Item 7. | Identification and Classification of the Subsidiary Which Acquired the Security Being Reported on by the Parent Holding Company: |
Aon is a parent holding company of Aon Fiduciary Counselors and, accordingly, has joined in the filing of this Schedule 13G pursuant to Rule 13d-1(b)(ii)(G). |
Item 8. Identification and Classification of Members of the Group:
NOT APPLICABLE
Item 9. Notice of Dissolution of Group:
NOT APPLICABLE
Item 10. Certification:
By signing below I certify that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the securities referred to above were acquired and are held in the ordinary course of business and were not acquired and are not held for the purpose of or with the effect of changing or influencing the control of the issuer of the securities and were not acquired and are not held in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having that purpose or effect.
After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
