Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

Additional information regarding the registrant's proposed acquisition of Integral UK Ltd. is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. The registrant undertakes no obligation to update this information, including any forward-looking statements, to reflect subsequently occurring events or circumstances.

The information in this Current Report, including the exhibits, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. This information will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information contained herein that is required to be disclosed solely by Regulation FD.

Item 8.01 Other Events
 
In a press release issued on June 6, 2016, JLL announced it reached a definitive agreement with Integral UK Ltd. ("Integral"), the UK's leading provider of mechanical and electrical property maintenance. A summary description of such agreement is provided below and in the copy of the press release which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated by reference.

The acquisition will strengthen JLL’s ability to self-perform property maintenance for clients across Europe, Middle East and Africa, adding to the more than 4 billion square feet of property currently serviced globally. It also will add to the company's already strong base of transactional services and establishes an engineering center of excellence in Bristol, which will help grow and develop existing and new talent.

The acquisition has a total valuation of $330 million and is expected to close in August, subject to clearance from the European Commission. It is the latest example of JLL’s disciplined acquisition strategy which, since the start of 2015, has seen JLL announce or close 38 margin-accretive transactions with a combined value of approximately $1.2 billion.
