postponement, or adjournment thereof. If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting in person, we encourage

you to request an admission ticket in advance. You can request a ticket in advance by following the

instructions under “Admission Procedure” in the Proxy Statement. Failure to request an admission ticket in

advance will not preclude your attendance at the Annual Meeting in person. However, in each case, an

individual must have evidence of ownership of the Company’s ordinary shares as of the Record Date and

a valid government-issued photo identification (e.g., a driver’s license or a passport) and should arrive in

advance, with sufficient time to be admitted to the Annual Meeting.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting in person, it is important that your shares be

held in the name of a bank or broker, submitting your voting instructions by mail, telephone, or internet will

depend on the processes of the bank or broker, and you should follow the instructions you receive from

your bank or broker.

Returning the proxy card or otherwise submitting your proxy does not deprive you of your right to attend

been forwarded to you by your bank, broker, nominee, or other holder of record, who is considered, with respect to those

shares, the shareholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your bank, broker, nominee, or

other holder of record how to vote your shares by using the voting instructions you received. See “How You Can Vote”

below for further information.

There is no cumulative voting in the election of directors.

If you do not wish to appoint the individuals named above as your proxies, you need not do so. Any shareholder who is

proxy holders. If you indicate an abstention as your voting preference, your shares will be counted toward a quorum, but

they will not be voted on any given proposal. “Broker non-votes” (see “Required Vote” below) will be counted as ordinary

Beneficial Owners. Beneficial owners, that is, shareholders whose ordinary shares were not held directly in their name at

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Clarivate 2026 Proxy Statement

If you are a beneficial owner and wish to vote in person, please advise the holder of record that you wish to attend the

Annual Meeting. The holder of record will provide you with evidence of ownership that will be required for admission to the

Annual Meeting.

We hope that you will promptly vote and submit your proxy by dating, signing, and returning the enclosed proxy

card by mail or by email, or by following the instructions for internet voting provided on the proxy card, or, if you

hold your shares in the name of a bank, broker, nominee, or other holder of record, by following their

instructions. Casting a vote by proxy will not limit your rights to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Revocation of Proxies

Shareholders can revoke their proxies at any time before they are exercised in any of the following ways:

v by voting in person at the Annual Meeting;

v by submitting written notice of revocation to the General Counsel prior to 1:00 p.m. BST on May 13, 2026 ; or

v by submitting another proxy — properly executed and delivered — on a later date, but prior to 1:00 p.m. BST on

May 13, 2026 .

Required Vote

The table below summarizes the proposals that will be voted on, the votes required to approve each item, and how votes

are counted.

Please note that “vote cast” means a vote “ FOR ” or “ AGAINST ” a proposal. An abstention, or “ ABSTAIN ” vote, is not a

“vote cast” and will not factor into whether a proposal is passed.

Proposal Vote required Voting options Impact of “abstain” or broker non-votes Broker discretionary voting allowed
Proposal 1 Re-Election of Directors For each director nominee, a simple majority of the votes cast by, or on behalf of, the shareholders entitled to vote in person or represented by proxy “FOR” “AGAINST” “ABSTAIN” None (1) No (2)
Proposal 2 Advisory Approval of Executive Compensation A simple majority of the votes cast by, or on behalf of, the shareholders entitled to vote in person or represented by proxy “FOR” “AGAINST” “ABSTAIN” None (1) No (2)
Proposal 3 Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accountants A simple majority of the votes cast by, or on behalf of, the shareholders entitled to vote in person or represented by proxy “FOR” “AGAINST” “ABSTAIN” None (1) Yes (3)

(1) A vote marked as “ABSTAIN” or a broker non-vote is not considered a vote cast and will, therefore, not affect the outcome of this proposal.

(2) As this proposal is not considered a discretionary matter, brokers lack authority to exercise their discretion to vote uninstructed shares on this

proposal.

(3) As this proposal is considered a discretionary matter, brokers are permitted to exercise their discretion to vote uninstructed shares on this proposal.

Please note that under NYSE rules, brokers may not vote your shares on certain “non-routine” matters without your voting

instructions. Accordingly, if you do not provide your bank, broker, or other nominee with instructions on how to vote your

shares, this will be considered a “broker non-vote” and your bank, broker, or nominee will not be permitted to vote those

shares on Proposal 1 (Re-Election of Directors) or Proposal 2 (Advisory Approval of Executive Compensation). Your

bank, broker, or nominee will be entitled to cast votes on Proposal 3 (Ratification of Appointment of Independent

Registered Public Accountants). We encourage you to provide instructions to your bank, broker, or nominee regarding the

voting of your shares.

Shareholders Who Share an Address (Householding)

Two or more Clarivate shareholders who share an address may receive only one copy of the Proxy Materials or the Notice

of Internet Availability, unless the shareholder gives instructions to the contrary.

We will deliver promptly a separate copy of the Proxy Materials to any Clarivate shareholder who resides at a shared

address and to which a single copy of the documents was delivered, if the shareholder makes a request by contacting the

General Counsel, c/o Legal Department, Clarivate Plc, 70 St. Mary Axe, London EC3A 8BE, United Kingdom , or by

telephone at +44 207 4334000 or by email at [email protected] .

If a broker, bank, or other nominee holds your shares, please contact your broker, bank, or other nominee

directly if you have questions about delivery of materials, require additional copies of the Proxy Materials, or

wish to receive multiple copies of the Proxy Materials, which would require you to state that you do not consent

to householding.

Solicitation of Proxies

We pay the cost of printing and mailing the Notice of 2026 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, the Annual Report,

and all Proxy Materials. We have retained D.F. King & Co., Inc. to aid in the solicitation of proxies by mail, telephone,

facsimile, email, and personal solicitation for a fee of $11,500, plus reasonable expenses. Our directors, officers, and

other employees may participate in the solicitation of proxies by personal interview, telephone, or email. No additional

compensation will be paid to our directors, officers, or other employees for solicitation. We will reimburse brokerage firms

and others for their reasonable expenses in forwarding solicitation materials to beneficial owners of our ordinary shares.

Presentation of Accounts

Under Jersey law, the directors are required to present the accounts of the Company and the reports of the auditors

before shareholders at a general meeting. Therefore, the accounts of the Company for the fiscal year ended

December 31, 2025 , will be presented to the shareholders at the Annual Meeting.

Final Voting Results of the Annual Meeting

The preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. The final voting results will be disclosed by the

Company in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”)

within four business days following the Annual Meeting.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Proxy Statement includes statements that express our opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives,

assumptions, or projections regarding future events or future results and therefore are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-

looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor provisions” of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of

the terms “believes,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “seeks,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” or “should,”

or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include

all matters that are not historical facts. The forward-looking statements contained in this Proxy Statement are based on

our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no

assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements

involve a number of risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause

actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking

statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors described under the caption “Risk

Factors” in our Annual Report, along with our other filings with the SEC. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties

materialize, or should any of the assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those

projected in these forward-looking statements. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking

statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as may be required under

applicable securities laws.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board is responsible for providing governance and oversight of the strategy, operations, and management of the

Company. The primary mission of the Board is to represent and protect the interests of our shareholders. The Board

oversees our senior management, to whom it has delegated the authority to manage the day-to-day operations of the

Company.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board believes strongly in the value of an independent board of directors to provide effective oversight of

management. Nine of our ten current Board members, who are also our director nominees, are independent. The Board

also has all independent members on its standing committees: the Audit Committee, the Human Resources and

Compensation Committee, the Nominating and Governance Committee, and the Finance Committee. The independent

members of the Board meet regularly without management, and such meetings are conducted by the Board Chair, whose

role is described further below.

The Board believes it is important to retain its flexibility to allocate the responsibilities of the offices of the Board Chair and

Chief Executive Officer (“ CEO ”) in any way that it deems to be in the best interests of the Company. Currently, the

positions of Board Chair and CEO are separate, and Andrew Snyder, our Non-Executive Board Chair, is an independent

director. The Board Chair oversees the planning of the annual Board calendar, and, in consultation with the CEO,

schedules and sets the agenda for meetings of the Board and leads the discussion at such meetings. The Board Chair

also presides at executive sessions, serves as a liaison between the CEO and the independent directors, sees that

directors receive appropriate and timely information, assists the committee chairs in preparing agendas for the respective

committee meetings, chairs the annual general meetings of shareholders, is available in appropriate circumstances to

speak on behalf of the Board, and performs such other functions and responsibilities as set forth in the Company’s

Corporate Governance Guidelines or as requested by the Board from time to time. Board members are encouraged to

suggest the inclusion of additional items on an agenda, and any director may request that an item be placed on an

agenda. The Board Chair is responsible for creating and maintaining an effective working relationship with the members of

management and the Board and encouraging dialogue between all directors and management.

Each of the Company’s directors, except Mr. Shem Tov, is independent (see “Independence of Directors” below). The

Board believes that the independent directors, including its Non-Executive Board Chair, Mr. Snyder, provide effective

oversight of management.

Corporate Governance Practices

Clarivate has a history of strong corporate governance. The Company believes good governance is critical to achieving

long-term shareholder value. The following table summarizes certain highlights of our corporate governance practices and

policies:

Our Practices and Policies
v Annual election of all directors v Board takes active role in succession planning
v 100% independent Board committees v Regular shareholder engagement by our CEO, CFO, and Investor Relations team
v 9 independent directors (out of 10) v Annual Board and committee self-evaluations
v Regular executive sessions, where independent directors meet without management present v Active Board oversight of strategy, risk management, and sustainability matters
v Director overboarding policy limiting service to three other public company boards; no Audit Committee member may simultaneously serve on the audit committee of more than two other public companies; and our CEO and executive officers may only serve on the board of one other public company v Robust director selection process resulting in a diverse and global Board in terms of experience, perspectives, skills, and tenure

Clarivate 2026 Proxy Statement

The Role of the Board of Directors in Risk Oversight

We recognize that risk is inherent in innovation and the pursuit of long-term growth opportunities.

Management at Clarivate is responsible for day-to-day risk management activities. The Company has formed a risk

management committee to supervise these day-to-day risk management efforts, including identifying potential material

risks and appropriate and reasonable risk mitigation efforts. The Board, acting directly and through its committees, is

responsible for the oversight of the Company’s risk management. With the oversight of the Board, we have implemented

practices and programs designed to help manage the risks to which we are exposed in our business and to align risk-

taking appropriately with our efforts to increase shareholder value. Each of the Board’s four committees — Audit, Human

Resources and Compensation, Nominating and Governance, and Finance — has a role in assisting the Board in its

oversight of the Company’s risk management, as set forth in the relevant committee charters.

In furtherance of the Board’s risk oversight responsibilities and practices, the Board’s Audit Committee brings additional

Board-level focus to the oversight of the Company’s management of key risks, as well as the Company’s guidelines,

policies, practices, and processes with respect to risk assessment, monitoring, and management. The Audit Committee

meets at least quarterly. Each standing Board committee also reports regularly to the full Board on its activities.

In addition, the Board participates in regular discussions among the Board and with senior management on many core

subjects, including strategy, operations, finance, information technology and cybersecurity, human resources, legal and

public policy matters, and any other subjects regarding which the Board or its committees consider risk oversight an

inherent element. The Board believes that the leadership structure described above under “Board Leadership Structure”

facilitates the Board’s oversight of risk management because it allows the Board, with leadership from the independent

Board Chair and working through its independent committees, to participate actively in the oversight of management’s

actions.

Organization of the Board of Directors

The Board held seven formal meetings during fiscal year 2025 and held a number of additional informal update and

background calls. At each meeting, the Board Chair was the presiding director. Each director attended at least 75 percent

of the total regularly scheduled and special meetings of the Board and the committees on which he or she served, except

Michael Angelakis, who did not attend the May 2025 Board and committee meetings which preceded his retirement from

the Board following the 2025 annual general meeting of shareholders. Our Board expects each director to attend our

annual general meeting of shareholders, although attendance is not required. At the 2025 annual general meeting of

shareholders, ten of the then 11 directors on the Board (all except Mr. Angelakis) were in attendance.

Following the 2025 annual general meeting of shareholders on May 7, 2025, Mr. Angelakis retired from the Board,

reducing its size to ten members. On July 22, 2025, Kenneth Cornick was elected to the Board, increasing its size to 11

members. On December 31, 2025, Valeria Alberola resigned from the Board, reducing its size to ten members.

The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines, committee charters, and a Code of Conduct, which, together

with the Articles, form the governance framework for the Board and its committees. We believe good governance

strengthens the Board and management’s accountability.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Clarivate 2026 Proxy Statement

The Board regularly (and at least annually) reviews its Corporate Governance Guidelines and other corporate governance

documents and revises them when it believes it serves the interests of the Company and its shareholders to do so.

Key Corporate Governance Documents The following governance documents are accessible through the Investor Relations section of our website at ir.clarivate.com : v Articles of Association v Corporate Governance Guidelines v Board Committee Charters v Code of Conduct v Insider Trading Policy

Director Nomination Agreements

In connection with Clarivate’s acquisition of CPA Global in October 2020, Clarivate entered into an Investor Rights

Agreement (the “ Investor Rights Agreement ”) with the owners of CPA Global, including affiliates of Leonard Green &

Partners, L.P. (“ LGP ”), and certain existing shareholders of Clarivate at the time, including affiliates of Onex Partners

Advisor LP (“ Onex ”), pursuant to which LGP was given the right to nominate two members of the Board for so long as

LGP maintains ownership of at least 10% of Clarivate, and one member of the Board for so long as LGP maintains

ownership of at least 5% of Clarivate. Mr. Cortas and Mr. Levyn have been nominated to the Board pursuant to the

Investor Rights Agreement.

In connection with Exor N.V.’s investment in the Company in March 2024, Clarivate entered into an Investment Agreement

with Exor (the “ Investment Agreement ”). Under the terms of the Investment Agreement, Clarivate agreed to include Ms.

Heywood in the Board’s annual slate of nominee directors, or if Ms. Heywood becomes unavailable to continue her

service as director, another individual designated by Exor and reasonably acceptable to the Board (the “ Exor Designee ”).

The Exor Designee will be required to promptly tender his or her resignation from the Board at such time at which Exor

beneficially owns less than 5% of Clarivate’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

Independence of Directors

Under our Corporate Governance Guidelines and NYSE listing standards, a director is considered independent if such

director does not fall within certain bright-line tests and the Board affirmatively determines that such director “has no

material relationship” with the Company (either directly or as a partner, shareholder, or officer of an organization that has a

relationship with the Company). As part of the Board’s annual review of director independence, the Board considers the

Nominating and Governance Committee’s independence assessment and recommendation. The Board also reviews and

considers any relationships or transactions between any director or any member of his or her immediate family and the

Company, in accordance with our Corporate Governance Guidelines. In addition to the transactions described in “Certain

Relationships and Related Person Transactions” below, the Board has reviewed and deemed immaterial for purposes of

determining director independence certain transactions and relationships in the following categories: (i) transactions

between Clarivate and an entity where the director is an executive officer or a significant shareholder and where all

shareholders of the entity received the same consideration for the transaction and such transaction occurred at a time

where the director was not otherwise affiliated with Clarivate; (ii) customer relationships between Clarivate and an entity

where the director is a significant shareholder or serves as a non-management director which also fall below the

numerical thresholds in NYSE listing standards (or do not otherwise preclude independence under those standards), and

that are ordinary course, on arm’s-length market terms; (iii) relationships between Clarivate and an entity where the

director is a significant shareholder and serves solely as a non-management director; and (iv) a director’s significant direct

or indirect ownership stake in Clarivate.

Based on the Nominating and Governance Committee’s independence assessment and recommendation, the Board

affirmatively determined that each member of the Board, other than Mr. Shem Tov, is independent under our Corporate

Governance Guidelines and NYSE listing standards. The Board determined that Ms. Alberola was independent through

her resignation from the Board in December 2025. Mr. Shem Tov is not independent due to his position as CEO of the

Company. In addition, the Board has determined that all members of each of the Audit Committee, Human Resources and

Compensation Committee, Nominating and Governance Committee, and Finance Committee of the Board meet the

independence requirements of the NYSE listing standards and SEC rules and regulations.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships between any of Clarivate’s executive officers and directors.

Clarivate 2026 Proxy Statement

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During 2025, none of our executive officers served on the board of directors or compensation committee of a company

that has an executive officer that serves on the Board or the Human Resources and Compensation Committee.

Simultaneous Service on Other Public Company Boards

The Board does not believe that its members should be generally prohibited from serving on boards of other

organizations. However, as set forth in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Board believes that

reasonable limits on such activity are advisable in order to ensure adequate time is available for Board members to focus

on the Company and its business. For that reason, the Board has determined that no non-management director may

serve on the board of more than three other public companies, and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and each of its

executive officers may only serve on the board of one other public company. In addition, as set forth in the Audit

Committee charter and the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, no Audit Committee member may

simultaneously serve on the audit committee of more than two other public companies, unless the Board determines that

such simultaneous service would not impair the ability of the member to effectively serve on the Audit Committee and this

determination is disclosed in accordance with NYSE rules.

In addition, other than with respect to any directors and director candidates designated pursuant to the Investor Rights

Agreement and the Investment Agreement (for so long as such agreements are in effect), for whom the Nominating and

Governance Committee does not provide a recommendation to the Board, the Nominating and Governance Committee

may take into account the nature of and time involved in a director’s service on other boards and/or committees in

evaluating the suitability of individual director candidates and current directors.

Code of Conduct

Clarivate has adopted a Code of Conduct that applies to all its employees, officers, and directors. This includes the

Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer or controller, or persons

performing similar functions.

Our Code of Conduct is available on our website at ir.clarivate.com . If we approve any substantive amendment to our

Code of Conduct, or if we grant any waiver of our Code of Conduct to our directors or executive officers (including our

principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer), we will post an update on the

Investor Relations page of our website within four business days following the date of the amendment or waiver,

describing the nature and date of the amendment or the nature of the waiver, the name of the person to whom it was

granted, and the date of the waiver, as the case may be.

Director Share Ownership Guidelines

We believe that our non-employee directors should have a significant equity interest in the Company. Our Board has

adopted an ownership policy in our Corporate Governance Guidelines that requires independent directors to hold ordinary

shares with a market value of at least five times the Board’s annual cash Board retainer. Directors have five years from

their initial appointment to achieve the holding requirement. Mr. Cortas and Mr. Levyn, as affiliates of LGP, and Mr. Munk,

as an affiliate of Onex, do not receive compensation for their service as directors and are not subject to the holding

requirement. The share ownership guidelines applicable to our non-employee directors are described in more detail under

“Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Share Ownership Guidelines” below.

Insider Trading Policy

We have adopted an insider trading policy that governs the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of our securities by

directors, officers, employees, and other covered persons that we believe is reasonably designed to promote compliance

with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and NYSE listing standards. A copy of our insider trading policy is filed as

Exhibit 19.1 to the Annual Report and is posted on our website at ir.clarivate.com .

Our insider trading policy prohibits executive officers, directors, employees, and consultants from entering into certain

forms of hedging or monetization transactions, such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts. Stock options granted

to employees under our equity compensation plans are not covered by the prohibition.

We also have a pledging policy for directors and senior executives (including executive officers) that prohibits them from

purchasing Clarivate securities on margin or holding Clarivate securities in a margin account, or otherwise pledging

Clarivate securities as collateral for a loan.

Each year, our Board and its committees perform a rigorous self-evaluation overseen by the Nominating and Governance

Committee. The performance evaluations solicit input from directors regarding the performance and effectiveness of the

Board and its committees and provide an opportunity for members of the Board to identify areas for improvement. The

Nominating and Governance Committee reviews the results and feedback from the evaluation process and makes

recommendations to the full Board. Each committee also reviews the results and feedback from its own evaluation

process. The Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee leads a discussion of the evaluation results. Our Board

has successfully used this process to evaluate Board and committee effectiveness and identify opportunities to strengthen

the Board.

Board Committees and Their Composition

The Board has established four standing committees: Audit, Human Resources and Compensation, Nominating and

Governance, and Finance, each of which operates under a written charter that is posted on our website at

ir.clarivate.com .

The Board periodically reviews the needs of the Board and the Company in determining its standing committees. The

Board reviews the composition of the Board committees annually and considers the expertise of the directors with the

needs of the committees.

Board Composition and Director Nominations

Our Board nominates directors to be elected at each annual general meeting of shareholders and appoints new directors

to fill vacancies when they arise, with any such newly appointed directors eligible for re-election at the next annual general

meeting of Clarivate. Board refreshment and succession planning is an ongoing, year-round process. The Board

recognizes that it is important for the Board to balance the benefits of continuity with the benefits of fresh viewpoints and

experience. While it is not the policy of the Board to mandate specific term limits or a specific retirement age for directors,

the Nominating and Governance Committee regularly reviews the composition of the Board and the appropriateness of

each director’s continued service on the Board in light of the current challenges and needs of the Board and the Company,

and determines whether it may be appropriate to add directors or reduce the size of the Board. The Board believes the

current composition of the Board and mix of tenures provides for a highly effective and well-functioning Board.

Subject to the requirements of the Investor Rights Agreement and the Investment Agreement, the Nominating and

Governance Committee will consider persons identified by its members, management, shareholders, investment bankers,

and others. The guidelines for selecting nominees, which are specified in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, generally

provide that persons to be nominated:

v should have demonstrated notable or significant achievements in business, education, or public service;

v should possess the requisite intelligence, education, and experience to make a significant contribution to the Board

and bring a range of skills, diverse perspectives, and backgrounds to its deliberations; and

v should have the highest ethical standards, a strong sense of professionalism, and intense dedication to serving the

interests of the shareholders.

The Nominating and Governance Committee will consider a number of qualifications relating to management and

leadership experience, background, technical skill, diversity of experience, judgment, integrity, and professionalism in

evaluating a person’s candidacy for membership on the Board. The Nominating and Governance Committee may require

certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific Board needs that arise from time to

time and will also consider the overall experience and makeup of its members to obtain a broad and diverse mix of Board

members. Subject to the requirements of the Investor Rights Agreement and the Investment Agreement, the Nominating

and Governance Committee will not distinguish among nominees recommended by shareholders and other persons.

Shareholders may recommend candidates for consideration by the Board by contacting the Board as indicated under

“Communications with the Board.”

PROPOSAL 2: ADVISORY APPROVAL OF EXECUTIVE

At the 2021 annual general meeting of shareholders, we conducted an advisory, non-binding vote regarding the frequency

with which we would seek approval of the compensation of our named executive officers (“ NEOs ”). At such meeting,

shareholders expressed their preference for an annual vote on executive compensation on an advisory, non-binding basis

and, consistent with this preference, the Board determined that we will conduct such a vote on an annual basis. Our next

advisory, non-binding vote regarding the frequency with which we would seek approval of the compensation of our NEOs

will occur at the 2027 annual general meeting of shareholders.

Accordingly, in accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act and related SEC rules, we are providing our

shareholders with the opportunity to vote, on an advisory, non-binding basis, on the compensation of our NEOs for 2025 ,

v Attract, retain, and motivate highly qualified executive talent.

Under these programs, our NEOs are rewarded for achieving specific individual and corporate goals, with an emphasis on

creating overall shareholder value. Our compensation programs continue to be a key driver of shareholder value creation,

with a strong emphasis on variable/at-risk compensation as opposed to fixed compensation. Shareholders continue to

show strong support of our executive compensation programs, with approximately 99% of the votes cast for approval

of our executive compensation proposal at our 2025 annual general meeting of shareholders.

Please read the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” for additional details about our executive compensation

programs, including information about the fiscal year 2025 compensation of our NEOs. Below are highlights of our

program designed to ensure effective oversight of our executive compensation and strong corporate governance.

ü We have a Human Resources and Compensation Committee that is fully composed of independent directors.

ü The Human Resources and Compensation Committee engages an independent compensation consultant.

ü We have adopted share ownership guidelines for our executive officers and the Board.

ü The majority of NEO pay is at risk and dependent upon performance.

ü The mix of executive officer equity awards includes a performance-based element.

ü We engage with our shareholders to discuss executive compensation and corporate governance matters.

ü We maintain robust clawback policies that require covered executives to reimburse compensation in specified

circumstances.

Clarivate 2026 Proxy Statement

The Human Resources and Compensation Committee continually reviews the compensation programs for our NEOs to

ensure they achieve the desired goals of aligning our executive compensation structure with our shareholders’ interests

and current market practices.

We are asking our shareholders to indicate their support for our named executive officer compensation program and

practices as described in this Proxy Statement. This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives our

shareholders the opportunity to express their views on our NEOs’ compensation. This vote is not intended to address any

specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our NEOs and the philosophy, policies, and

practices described in this Proxy Statement. Accordingly, we are asking our shareholders to approve the compensation

policies and practices of our NEOs as disclosed in this Proxy Statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of

the SEC (which include the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Executive Compensation Tables, and related

material).

The text of the resolution with respect to Proposal 2 (which is proposed as an

ordinary resolution) is as follows:

RESOLVED , that the shareholders of the Company hereby approve, on an advisory, non-binding basis, the

compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in the Proxy Statement relating to the 2026 Annual

General Meeting of Shareholders.”

Vote Required and Recommendation

The proposal will pass if approved by a simple majority of the votes cast by, or on behalf of, the shareholders entitled to

vote in person or represented by proxy.

The vote is advisory and therefore its result is not binding on the Company, the Human Resources and Compensation

Committee, or the Board. The Board and the Human Resources and Compensation Committee value the opinions of our

shareholders, and, to the extent there is a significant vote against the NEO compensation policies and practices as

disclosed in this Proxy Statement, we will consider our shareholders’ concerns and the Human Resources and

Compensation Committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns.

With respect to Proposal 2, you may instruct to vote “FOR,” or “AGAINST,” or “ABSTAIN” from voting on, such proposal. If

you “ABSTAIN” from voting, your vote is not considered a vote cast and will have no effect on such proposal. If you do not

provide your broker or other nominee with instructions on how to vote your shares with respect to Proposal 2, your broker

or nominee will not be entitled to cast votes, and a “broker non-vote” on Proposal 2 will result. Broker non-votes are not

considered votes cast and will have no effect on the vote for this proposal.

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL, ON A NON-BINDING BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT, PURSUANT TO THE COMPENSATION DISCLOSURE RULES OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

Shareholder Engagement

Strong engagement with our shareholders is critically important to us, so we design our disclosures to be as open and

transparent as possible in order to facilitate these important discussions, which provide us with valuable input and

feedback. We hold hundreds of meetings with shareholders every year, and in the context of those meetings there is

occasionally discussion of our executive compensation and corporate governance practices, and we consider the input we

receive as we continue to refine our executive compensation program. Our advisory approval of executive compensation

proposal received a 99% approval rate among shareholders who voted on our executive compensation proposal at the

2025 annual general meeting of shareholders. Given this strong support, the HRCC determined that our approach to

compensation should remain relatively consistent in 2026 .

Our Approach to Pay

Our Compensation Philosophy

Our goal is to provide an executive compensation program that reinforces a pay-for-performance culture, serving the

interests of our shareholders while supporting our mission, vision, and values. We believe that attracting and retaining

superior talent and rewarding performance are key to delivering long-term shareholder returns, and that a competitive

compensation program is critical to that end. Therefore, we strive to provide a competitive compensation package to our

executives that is heavily weighted toward performance-based pay elements that align the interests of our executives with

those of Clarivate shareholders.

Objectives to Support Our Compensation Philosophy

In order to achieve the goals of our compensation and benefits program, we have adopted the following objectives and

guidelines:

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
Total Rewards Strategy Supports Our Mission, Vision, and Values The components of our compensation program encourage our employees to aim for greatness by pursuing top performance and challenging the status quo in the belief that human ingenuity can transform the world and improve our future.
Incentives Aligned to Key Business Objectives We aim to drive superior business and financial results by setting clear, measurable short- and long-term performance targets that support our business strategy and the creation of long-term shareholder value while also ensuring that our executives are not incentivized to take inappropriate risks.
Supports a Pay-for-Performance Culture Total compensation should be competitive and performance should be appropriately rewarded. We believe incentive design should provide for meaningful variability in payouts based on the degree to which performance exceeds or falls short of our goals.
Designed to Attract, Retain, and Motivate Top Talent Total compensation should be competitive in order to attract qualified individuals, motivate performance, and retain, develop, and reward employees with the abilities and skills needed to foster long-term value creation.
Programs Globally Consistent and Locally Competitive Total compensation should be globally consistent and locally competitive to attract and retain qualified talent in the markets in which we operate.

Determination of Executive Compensation

The Role of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee

The HRCC is composed of independent, non-employee members of the Board. Details of the HRCC’s authority and

responsibilities are specified in the HRCC’s charter, which may be accessed on our website, ir.clarivate.com .

With respect to CEO and executive officer compensation, the HRCC:

v Reviews and approves the corporate goals and objectives as they relate to incentive compensation targets and

payouts at various levels;

v Evaluates the CEO’s performance in light of these goals and objectives;

v Sets the CEO’s compensation based on the evaluation of the CEO’s performance either alone or, if directed by the

Board, in conjunction with a, majority of the independent directors on the Board;

v Reviews and sets the compensation of the executive officers other than the CEO and, if directed by the Board or if the

HRCC otherwise deems it appropriate, makes recommendations to the Board regarding the compensation of the

executive officers other than the CEO;

v Reviews and makes recommendations to the Board regarding non-employee director compensation;

v Reviews and approves the Company’s CD&A disclosure, as required by SEC rules, and provides a recommendation

to the Board whether to include the CD&A disclosure in the Company’s Proxy Statement or Annual Report on Form

10-K;

v Recommends to the Board whether to approve the frequency (Say-When-on-Pay) with which the Company will

conduct advisory approvals of executive compensation (Say-on-Pay votes), taking into consideration the results of the

most recent shareholder advisory vote on the frequency of Say-on-Pay votes;

v Administers our Executive Compensation Recoupment Policy and such other compensation recoupment policies that

we have in effect from time to time;

v Reviews and assesses risks arising from the Company’s compensation policies and practices and whether such risks

are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company; and

30

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Clarivate 2026 Proxy Statement

v Oversees human capital management, including in the context of talent management and succession planning.

The HRCC works closely with its independent compensation consultant and senior management to consider a variety of

factors when making compensation decisions throughout the year, including:

v Experience, responsibilities, and individual and overall Company performance;

v Internal equity among executives;

v Executive succession planning;

v Competitive external market data and trends; and

v Alignment with shareholders, customers, and other colleagues.

As part of the responsibilities described in its charter, the HRCC sets objective business performance targets and the

amounts payable at different levels of performance under each of our incentive plans. Goal setting is a critical part of the

Company’s overall business planning process. As part of this process, a range of performance scenarios is developed.

Goals are then set at the threshold, target, and maximum performance levels — driven by the strategic and operational

plans as presented by management and approved by the Board. The HRCC also considers the probability of achievement

of different levels of performance when setting goals.

The Role of the Independent Compensation Consultant

In 2025, the HRCC engaged Pay Governance as its independent compensation consultant to advise on executive

compensation matters. Pay Governance specializes in executive compensation and related governance matters. To

ensure the HRCC receives independent and unbiased advice and analysis, the compensation consultant is prohibited

from providing any services to management, although the compensation consultant interacts with management from time

to time in order to best coordinate with and deliver services to the HRCC. The HRCC has sole authority with regard to the

decision to retain and terminate the services of the compensation consultant and to approve the compensation

consultant’s fees and other retention terms. The compensation consultant maintains active engagement with the HRCC

Chair and reports to the HRCC. The HRCC annually reviews the independence of the compensation consultant’s work

under rules adopted by the SEC and NYSE and has found no conflicts.

In 2025, the independent compensation consultant performed duties requested by the HRCC including:

v Providing analysis and recommendations on the composition of the peer group;

v Analyzing executive and director compensation in comparison to the peer group;

v Advising the HRCC on increasing the available share reserve under the Company’s incentive award plan;

v Advising the HRCC on executive severance policies;

v Updating the HRCC on executive compensation and governance market trends;

v Advising the HRCC on annual incentive and long-term equity plan designs;

v Preparing a risk review relative to compensation policies and practices; and

v Reviewing disclosures related to executive compensation.

Pay Governance speaks with the chair of the HRCC, as well as with management, in preparing for HRCC meetings,

regularly attends HRCC meetings, and meets from time to time in executive sessions with the HRCC without the presence

of management.

The Role of Management

At the HRCC’s request, management provides information, analyses, and recommendations regarding our executive

compensation program, as well as information regarding our achievement of performance metrics. Our CEO discusses

with the HRCC his views on the performance and compensation of the other NEOs and CEO direct reports.

The Use of Peer Group Benchmarking and Market Data

Peer Group Benchmarking

The HRCC considers several factors in structuring our executive compensation program, determining pay components,

and making compensation decisions. This includes an annual review and comparison of the compensation practices of

select peer companies in our industry. These companies were chosen with guidance from our independent compensation

consultant to be effective for 2025. It was the HRCC’s intent to select companies that operate significant lines of business

similar to Clarivate’s and are similar in size, and therefore compete with Clarivate for executive talent.

We established a peer group for benchmarking executive pay based on the following guiding principles:

v Companies engaged in intelligence development, data analytics, digital delivery, cybersecurity, and intellectual

property protections;

v Revenues between $800 million to $8.0 billion;

v Market capitalization between $1.4 billion to $28.0 billion;

v Business/talent competitors of Clarivate;

v A group of 10 to 25 companies so that results are statistically reliable and the peer group is sustainable over time; and

v Availability of sufficient pay data for companies identified as potential peers.

Based on this analysis, the following 17 companies were selected as our primary peer group for compensation

benchmarking in 2025 (the “ Peer Group ”). Changes from our prior year’s peer group include removing Moody’s

Corporation, MSCI Inc., and Thomson Reuters Corporation due to their market capitalization being outside our financial

scope noted above and adding ACI Worldwide, Inc.; Envestnet, Inc.; and Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. based on our

industry and financial scope noted above.

v Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) v Verisk Analytics, Inc. (VRSK)
v Gartner, Inc. (IT) v Wolters Kluwer N.V. (WKL)
v ICON plc (ICLR)

Use of Market Comparison Data

The HRCC approves the salary, Annual Incentive Plan (“ AIP ”) targets, and Long-Term Incentive Plan (“ LTI ”) equity

compensation of the NEOs at levels that are competitive with compensation paid to persons holding the same or similar

positions at members of the Peer Group using available market comparison data regarding these companies as a guide.

In addition to Peer Group market data, the HRCC also considered Willis Towers Watson compensation survey data from

similar industries and geographies in its competitive analysis of NEO compensation. The use of market comparison data,

however, is just one of the tools the HRCC uses to determine executive compensation, and the HRCC retains the

flexibility to establish target compensation at levels it deems appropriate for an individual or for a specific element of

compensation based on performance, experience, and breadth of responsibilities.

Elements of Compensation at a Glance — Mix of Fixed and Variable

Performance-Based Compensation

We design our executive compensation programs to create a performance-based culture that rewards employees for

collective performance and demonstration of our values and to align our employees’ interests with those of our public

shareholders.

Our executive compensation program is tailored to our strategic priorities and current business outlook, while also

designed to motivate and retain our senior management team. Multiple components, described below, are utilized to

achieve these objectives, with a heavy emphasis on pay that is variable or at risk depending directly on performance

against strategic corporate metrics.

Pay Element Payment Form Alignment to Business Objectives
Fixed Base Salary Cash v Benchmarks base salaries to ensure market competitiveness in the attraction and retention of key talent v Provides a competitive fixed rate of pay relative to similar positions in the market
Retirement, Health, and Welfare Benefits Benefits v Market-aligned programs to facilitate strong productivity and provide support in times of personal need v Health, welfare, and retirement programs v Limited perquisites
At-Risk / Variable Annual Incentive Plan Cash v Rewards performance for achievement of rigorous and challenging short-term performance goals aligned with the Company’s annual operating plan v Motivates executives to deliver on individual objectives supportive of broader business objectives
Long-Term Incentive Program PSUs and RSUs v Rewards performance for achievement of rigorous long- term performance goals aligned with the interests of shareholders and the Company’s strategy v Supports retention and mitigates excessive risk taking

Clarivate 2026 Proxy Statement

Alignment of Pay to Business Objectives

With regard to our variable/at-risk pay, we use multiple metrics to incentivize behavior that supports the achievement of

our corporate goals.

For our AIP, the metrics selected in 2025 to best support our short-term objectives included corporate-level Revenue,

Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, and Voice of Customer metrics. For our segment presidents, AIP metrics also included

segment-level revenue and Adjusted EBITDA goals and an individual performance component.

Our LTI program includes performance-based restricted share units (“ PSUs ”) that apply longer-term metrics including, for

our 2025 PSU grants, Recurring Organic Revenue Growth, Adjusted diluted EPS, and Adjusted EBITDA, and for our 2024

and 2023 PSU grants, Adjusted diluted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA, with, for all years, a total shareholder return (“ TSR ”)

modifier comparing our stock price performance to the S&P 500 over a cumulative three-year period.

Compensation for Our Named Executive Officers

For 2025 , our NEOs were as follows:

Name Title
Matti Shem Tov Chief Executive Officer
Jonathan Collins Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
Bar Veinstein President, Academia and Government
Henry Levy President, Life Sciences and Healthcare
Maroun Mourad President, Intellectual Property
Gordon Samson (1) Former President, Intellectual Property
Melanie Margolin (2) Former Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative and Legal Officer

(1) Mr. Samson departed the Company on December 31, 2025, with his last day as President, Intellectual Property on September 7, 2025. His

departure was without cause.

(2) Ms. Margolin departed the Company on March 21, 2025, with her last day as Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative and Legal Officer

on February 28, 2025. Her departure was without cause.

Compensation Mix — Performance-Based/At-Risk Compensation

The graphics below show the total target compensation mix of our current CEO (Matti Shem Tov) and our other current

NEOs, excluding Gordon Samson and Melanie Margolin. These illustrate that a majority of the NEO’s total target

compensation is at risk, with 88% for our CEO and an average of 82% for our other current NEOs. For purposes of these

estimates, total compensation is composed of base salary, AIP target, and RSU/PSU grant value. AIP and equity grants

are both considered at-risk pay.

(1) Other NEOs include Messrs. Collins, Veinstein, Levy, and Mourad.

Base Salary

Base salary represents annual fixed compensation and is a standard element of compensation necessary to attract and

retain executive leadership talent. In making base salary decisions for our NEOs other than the CEO, the HRCC considers

the CEO’s recommendations, as well as each NEO’s position and level of responsibility within the Company. The HRCC

also takes into account factors such as relevant market data, overall Company performance, individual performance and

contributions, relevant experience, and internal equity within the Company.

(3) Mr. Samson left his executive officer position on September 7, 2025 and departed the Company on December 31, 2025.

(4) Ms. Margolin left her executive officer position on February 28, 2025 and departed the Company on March 21, 2025.

2025 Annual Incentive Plan

Our AIP provides the opportunity for annual cash incentives to be made to approximately 85% of our employees. Our AIP

is tied primarily to pre-established corporate-level goals for Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. In addition,

in 2025, we set pre-established segment-level Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA goals for each of our three segments,

which, for the NEOs, applied based on the NEO’s scope of responsibility within that segment (as applicable). The ultimate

payout under the AIP is determined based on a company funding pool based on consolidated pre-bonus Adjusted EBITDA

and Voice of Customer achievement, along with application of an individual performance modifier, as follows:

v In 2025, the performance metrics applicable to Mr. Shem Tov, Mr. Collins and Ms. Margolin were based entirely on the

corporate-level goal set.

v The performance metrics applicable to Mr. Veinstein were based on both the corporate-level goals and the A&G

segment goal set.

v The performance metrics applicable to Mr. Levy were based on both the corporate-level goals and the LS&H segment

goal set.

v The performance metrics applicable to Mr. Mourad were based on both the corporate-level goals and the IP segment

goal set.

v For each of Messrs. Veinstein, Levy, and Mourad, the corporate-level goals and segment-level goals each comprised

50% of the NEO’s AIP opportunity for 2025 (prior to application of the company funding pool and individual modifier).

v Mr. Samson was ineligible to receive a 2025 AIP payout.

Each NEO has a target AIP award, which is defined as a percentage of the respective NEO’s eligible base pay. The table

below provides AIP target opportunities for 2025 , which reflect no changes from 2024 .

Name 2025 AIP Target
Matti Shem Tov 100%
Jonathan Collins 100%
Bar Veinstein 100%
Henry Levy 100%
Maroun Mourad (1) 100%
Gordon Samson (2) N/A
Melanie Margolin (3) 100%

(1) Mr. Mourad’s 2025 AIP payment was prorated based on his date of hire.

(2) Mr. Samson departed the Company on December 31, 2025 and, pursuant to the terms of his separation agreement, was ineligible to receive a 2025

AIP payment.

(3) Ms. Margolin departed the Company on March 21, 2025 and, pursuant to the terms of her separation agreement, was eligible for a pro rata

payment of her 2025 AIP payment assuming target performance.

AIP Goals

AIP bonus payouts for 2025 were determined first by measuring the achievement of the applicable corporate- and

segment-level goals described above. Then, an overall company funding pool is determined based on a combination of

consolidated pre-bonus Adjusted EBITDA performance (i.e., as determined prior to the determination of AIP payouts) and

Voice of Customer achievement, which can increase or decrease the achievement level resulting from the corporate- and

segment-level metric performance. Lastly, an individual modifier is applied, which can increase or decrease an individual’s

ultimate payout.

The tables below show the weighting of each of the metrics described above and the threshold, target, and maximum

payout levels. The consolidated pre-bonus Adjusted EBITDA metrics comprise 90% of the company funding pool and the

Voice of Customer metric comprises the remaining 10% of the funding pool, with the total AIP bonus subject to adjustment

based on individual performance. Pre-bonus Adjusted EBITDA performance can be achieved between 0% and 200% of

target, while Voice of Customer performance can be achieved between 90% and 110% of target. The individual

performance modifier can be used to increase or decrease an individual’s final AIP payment based on that individual’s

personal performance, as determined by the HRCC, provided that the maximum payment cannot exceed 200% of the AIP

target.

2025 AIP FUNDING GOALS — Metric Weighting Payout Level Goal (millions, except Voice of Customer)
Pre-bonus Adjusted EBITDA 90% Threshold 0% $945

Maximum 200% $1,154
Voice of Customer (1) 10% Threshold 90% <42
Target 100% 42
Maximum 110% >42

(1) The Voice of Customer metric is based on the results of surveys sent to all of our customers. Voice of Customer can directly impact our revenues

and represents a key component of our success measurements. The Voice of Customer metric represents an industry-renowned standard and

methodology that measures customer loyalty through Net Promoter Score. Voice of Customer achievement can result in achievement between 90%

and 110% of target, depending on the Net Promoter Score.

2025 Long-Term Incentive Program

Amended and Restated 2019 Incentive Award Plan Grant Practices

Annual LTI awards to NEOs are typically granted in the first quarter of the year , although LTI awards may also be granted

to NEOs as part of the hiring process, in connection with a promotion or change in responsibility, or in response to

extraordinary circumstances. The HRCC approves the type and number of awards to be granted and the performance

criteria for awards. For all such grants, the grant date is no earlier than the date of HRCC approval. Awards are not spring-

loaded or otherwise timed to take advantage of material nonpublic information, and the Company does not manipulate the

timing of the public release of information to increase the value of an award .

The HRCC has delegated to the CEO and the SVP, Head of People the authority to grant equity awards, including annual

LTI awards, to eligible employees (other than the CEO, the SVP, Head of People, and persons subject to Section 16 of the

Exchange Act), provided the total awards remain within specified limits and subject to terms and conditions approved by

the HRCC. In addition, on a quarterly basis, the HRCC reviews the shares granted from this award budget.

Equity Programs

We consider share ownership a key component in our compensation programs because it aligns the goals of our

employees with those of our shareholders. Through the LTI program, our most senior leaders are eligible for annual equity

awards under the Clarivate Amended and Restated 2019 Incentive Award Plan. Our key equity programs include LTI for

NEOs and senior management, which consists of PSUs and RSUs.

As discussed above, PSUs are granted to our most senior leaders, thereby placing a larger percentage of their

compensation “at risk.”

The following is the mix of performance and time-based equity awarded through our annual LTI program. See footnotes to

the “ 2025 NEO Equity Awards” table below for a description of equity granted outside of the annual equity cycle.

Ratio of Performance to Time-Based Equity — Position PSUs RSUs
CEO 50% 50%
Other NEOs 50% 50%

RSUs vest ratably over three years, with one-third of the award vesting on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant

date. PSUs cliff vest at the end of a three-year period, subject to achievement of performance measures and continued

employment. The 2023, 2024, and 2025 PSU awards have one three-year measurement period, with performance

achievement adjusted in accordance with our three-year relative TSR modifier.

PSU Grants

2023-2025 Performance. The table below contains the performance metrics relative to the three-year measurement

Target 100% $2.59 $3,564 P50 1.0x

The HRCC approved adjustments to both our Adjusted diluted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA results for the 2023 – 2025

period to reflect divestitures and disposals that occurred during the performance period, as contemplated by the plan.

Based on 2023-2025 financial results after these adjustments, actual performance versus the performance goals was

40.625% of target relative to the 2023 awards. Our three-year TSR performance (2023 – 2025) was less than the 25th

percentile of the S&P 500 and therefore modifies the overall performance achievement by 0.8x, resulting in a final

performance achievement at 32.5% of target for the 2023 awards.

Retirement, Health, and Welfare Benefits

We sponsor a qualified defined contribution plan for all U.S. employees, including our U.S.-based NEOs. In addition, we

sponsor a qualified defined contribution plan for U.K. employees, including our U.K.-based NEOs. Other than the qualified

plans described above, we do not provide any other pension plan, supplemental retirement plan, or deferred

compensation plan to our NEOs. We do provide company matches to employee contributions to qualified retirement

plans, and these are reported as All Other Compensation in the 2025 Summary Compensation Table.

We also provide NEOs with life and medical insurance and other benefits generally available to all employees. The only

perquisite we provide our NEOs is reimbursement for an annual executive physical, not to exceed $5,000 in any given

year. We do not provide a gross-up on taxes paid by NEOs in connection with such reimbursement.

Share Ownership Guidelines

We have adopted the following share ownership guidelines for our non-employee compensated directors, CEO, executive

officers, and executive leadership team. As of January 1, 2026, all have met or are on track to achieve their applicable

guideline by the end of the 5-year compliance period.

Chief Executive Officer 6 times base salary
Other Executive Officers and Executive Leadership Team 3 times base salary

Insider Trading Policy

We have adopted an insider trading policy which governs the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of our securities by

directors, officers, employees, and other covered persons that we believe is reasonably designed to promote compliance

with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and NYSE listing standards. A copy of our insider trading policy is filed as

Exhibit 19.1 to the Annual Report.

Our insider trading policy prohibits officers, directors, employees, and consultants of the Company from trading while in

possession of material, nonpublic information about the Company. We impose quarterly trading blackouts applicable to

certain designated employees who may have access to inside information prior to the release of earnings, and we require

all executive officers and other designated insider employees to pre-clear any transactions with the Company before

trading in the Company’s shares.

No Hedging Policy

Certain forms of hedging or monetization transactions allow an individual to lock in much of the value of their ordinary

shares, often in exchange for all or part of the potential for upside appreciation in the ordinary shares. These transactions

allow the continued ownership of the covered securities but without the full risks and rewards of ownership. When that

occurs, the individual entering into the transaction may no longer have the same objectives as the Company’s other

shareholders.

Our insider trading policy prohibits directors, executive officers, employees, and consultants from entering into certain

forms of hedging or monetization transactions, such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts.

No Pledging Policy

We have a policy that prohibits our directors, executive officers, employees, and consultants from pledging the Company’s

securities as collateral to secure loans or otherwise. This includes a prohibition on holding the Company’s securities in a

margin account, which would allow the director or executive officer to borrow against their holdings to buy securities.

Risk Assessment and Mitigation of Compensation Policies and Practices

The Board of Directors is responsible for the oversight of the Company’s ongoing assessment and management of

material risks impacting our business. The HRCC oversees compensation risk management by participating in the

creation and approval of compensation elements, programs, and performance metrics that encourage an appropriate level

of risk taking consistent with our business strategy.

The HRCC has reviewed our incentive compensation program, taken into account the concept of risk as it relates to our

compensation program, considered various mitigating factors, and reviewed each of these items with its independent

compensation consultant. In addition, Pay Governance conducted an independent risk assessment of our executive

compensation program and determined that our compensation program does not create risks that are reasonably likely to

have a material adverse effect on our business. Based on these reviews and discussions, among other factors considered

by the HRCC, the HRCC believes that our compensation program is structured to minimize the risk of material adverse

effects on our business.

We established short-term and long-term incentive plans that include a mix of performance metrics that align with our

overall corporate goals and strategy and do not encourage excessive risk taking in order to meet one particular goal. As

noted above in “Good Governance Practices,” we have share ownership guidelines and prohibitions against hedging and

pledging of our securities.

Clawback Policies

We maintain an executive compensation recoupment policy intended to comply with the requirements of Section 10D of

the Exchange Act and the rules of the NYSE, under which the HRCC must recover certain excess incentive-based

compensation paid to executive officers in the event of a restatement of our financial statements due to our material

noncompliance with any financial reporting required under U.S. federal securities laws.

In addition, we have adopted a detrimental conduct compensation recoupment policy under which the HRCC may recover

compensation, including time-based equity awards, from (i) any current or former CEO of the Company, (ii) any individual

who, at any time, was designated as an “officer” of the Company as defined under Rule 16a-1(f), and (iii) any current or

former employee of the Company who at any time during his or her employment was a member of our Executive

40

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Clarivate 2026 Proxy Statement

Leadership Team. The potential recovery period is the three-year period preceding the date of certain detrimental conduct,

including conduct such as willful acts that injure the reputation, business, or any business relationship of the Company,

indictment or conviction of a crime, violations of any non-compete, non-solicitation, or confidentiality covenant, and

violations of any material Company policies. A copy of our executive compensation recoupment policy is filed as Exhibit 97

to the Annual Report.

Impact of Accounting and Tax Treatment

The HRCC annually reviews and considers the deductibility of the compensation paid to our executive officers, including

each of the NEOs. The HRCC considers the accounting and tax treatment to Clarivate and the NEOs in its decision-

making process. We strive to ensure that there are no significant negative accounting or tax implications due to the design

of our compensation programs; however, we will base our decisions on what we believe is necessary and appropriate to

further the growth of our Company, align with our shareholders’ interests, and provide appropriate pay for performance.

2025 136,986 1,757,845 136,986 1,936,797 3,968,614

(1) Salary earned for Mr. Mourad is for the period of hire date through the end of 2025 and salary earned for Ms. Margolin is for the period she was

employed during 2025.

(2) Amounts shown are the aggregate grant date fair value of PSUs and RSUs granted in 2025 under our long-term incentive program as described

above under “2025 Long-Term Incentive Program,” computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, excluding the effect of any estimated

forfeitures. Information about the assumptions used to calculate the grant date fair value of the stock can be found in our Annual Report on Form

10-K under “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data — Note 1: Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting

Policies — Share-based Compensation” and “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data — Note 11: Share-based Compensation.”

PSUs are reported at 100% of target performance, which was the most probable outcome of their performance conditions as of their grant date.

These amounts do not necessarily correspond to the actual value that may be realized by the NEOs. At the maximum performance level of 200%,

the grant date fair value of the PSUs would be as follows: Mr. Shem Tov, $6,799,029; Mr. Collins, $2,832,926; Mr. Veinstein, $2,266,337; Mr. Levy,

$2,266,337; and Mr. Samson, $2,266,337. The grant date fair value of the PSUs is calculated using a Monte Carlo valuation, which takes into

consideration the probability of the PSUs paying out at different levels.

The PSU grants represent all of the PSUs awarded for 2025. Since performance goals for the entire performance period of the 2025 awards were

established and approved by the HRCC in 2025, these are considered granted for accounting purposes in 2025.

Mr. Samson’s and Ms. Margolin’s grant value includes $1,291,222 and $1,757,845, respectively, in incremental fair value resulting from

modifications of their equity awards pursuant to the terms of their respective separation agreements. In accordance with the terms of her separation

agreement, Ms. Margolin was not entitled to receive equity awards in 2025.

(3) Represents annual incentive payments under our AIP that were paid in March 2026 for 2025 performance. Mr. Mourad was eligible for a pro rata

payment of 2025 AIP. Under the terms of their respective separation agreements, Mr. Samson was ineligible to receive a payment under the 2025

AIP and Ms. Margolin was eligible for a pro rata payment of 2025 AIP assuming target performance.

EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

The Company has entered into employment agreements with our current CEO and each of our other NEOs. These

employment agreements establish each NEO’s employment terms and provide a description of the compensation

elements and benefits to which each NEO is entitled. None of the employment agreements provide for severance upon a

voluntary termination of employment, nor do they provide for single-trigger change-in-control payments.

The employment agreements provide each executive with an annual base salary to be reviewed at the discretion of

management and the HRCC and adjusted depending on performance. In addition, each executive is eligible to participate

in the AIP and is entitled to participate in employee benefit plans, programs, and arrangements customarily provided to

our executives. The employment agreements with Messrs. Collins, Levy, and Mourad do not constitute a contract of

employment and do not entitle them to employment for any specified period, and therefore, their employment is

considered “at will.” The employment agreements with Messrs. Shem Tov and Veinstein constitute an Israeli contract of

employment. The employment agreement with Ms. Margolin did not constitute a contract of employment and did not

entitle her to employment for any specified period, and therefore, her employment was considered “at will.” The

employment agreement with Mr. Samson constituted a U.K. contract of employment.

Under the terms of their employment agreements or separate restrictive covenant agreements, all of our NEOs (including

Ms. Margolin and Mr. Samson) are subject to perpetual confidentiality and intellectual property provisions and restrictive

covenants related to non-competition and non-solicitation of employees, customers, and suppliers for 12 months post-

termination, whether voluntary or involuntary.

On June 30, 2021, the Company adopted the Executive Severance Plan, which it amended and restated on March 23,

2026 (as amended and restated, the “ ESP ”). Pursuant to the ESP, each of our NEOs are eligible to receive severance

benefits upon an involuntary termination without cause (including enhanced severance benefits in connection with an

involuntary termination or resignation for good reason following a change in control). While each of our NEOs is eligible to

receive severance benefits pursuant to the terms of their employment agreement, the ESP provides that, in order to

receive benefits under the ESP, the eligible executive cannot receive benefits under another severance agreement.

Payment of severance under the ESP and each NEO’s employment agreement is contingent upon the executive entering

into a release of claims with the Company. There is no eligibility for severance benefits under the employment agreements

or the ESP if the applicable executive voluntarily resigns or the Company terminates him for cause.

The following describes, for our current CEO and other NEOs (other than Ms. Margolin and Mr. Samson), the benefits that

would be received under their respective employment agreements or the ESP in various termination circumstances:

v Pursuant to the ESP, in the event of an involuntary termination without cause, the NEOs are entitled to severance in

the amount of 18 months of annual base salary, 1.5 times AIP target, and, to the extent the Consolidated Omnibus

Budget Reconciliation Act (“ COBRA ”) applies, 18 months of continued benefits coverage relative to medical, dental,

and vision plans. Any unvested RSUs granted prior to April 1, 2027 become vested to the extent the RSUs would

have otherwise vested had the NEOs’ employment continued over the 18-month period following the NEOs’

termination date. Any unvested RSUs granted on or after April 1, 2027 become vested in a pro-rated amount

calculated by dividing the number of full months employed between the grant date and the termination date by the

total vesting period. All outstanding PSUs will be forfeited. The expiration date of any outstanding stock options will be

extended to two years from December 31 of the year the NEO is terminated.

v In the event of an involuntary termination without cause or a resignation for good reason that is within 12 months

following a Change in Control, pursuant to the ESP, the NEOs are entitled to severance in the amount of 24 months of

annual base salary, 2 times AIP target and, if COBRA applies, 24 months of continued benefits coverage relative to

medical, dental, and vision plans. The expiration date of any outstanding stock options will be extended to two years

from December 31 of the year the NEO is terminated. Pursuant to the terms of the NEOs’ current award agreements,

any unvested RSUs and PSUs shall immediately vest (with PSUs vesting at the performance level determined by the

Board).

v The cash severance amount due under the ESP is paid in accordance with the terms of the ESP.

v In the event of termination due to death or disability, the NEOs are not entitled to any severance or continuation of

benefits under their respective employment agreements or the ESP. Pursuant to the terms of the NEOs’ current award

agreements, any unvested RSUs and PSUs shall immediately vest, with PSUs deemed earned at target.

On September 8, 2025, Mr. Mourad joined the Company as President of our Intellectual Property segment. Mr. Mourad’s

employment agreement provides for initial annual base salary of $600,000 and a target annual cash bonus opportunity

equal to 100% of his annual base salary under the AIP, subject to the terms and conditions of the AIP (which was prorated

for 2025 based on his service during 2025). Under his employment agreement, Mr. Mourad also received a sign-on RSU

equity grant in 2025 with a grant date fair market value of $2.25 million, which will vest ratably over three years on each of

the first three anniversaries of the grant date. In the event Mr. Mourad’s employment is terminated for cause, he must pay

the Company the cash value of any portion of the sign-on equity grant that has vested as of the termination date, and any

unvested portion of the sign-on equity grant as of the termination date will be cancelled. Mr. Mourad’s target annual long-

term equity incentive compensation opportunity for 2026 will be provided in the form of 50% RSUs and 50% PSUs, with a

combined grant date value equal to at least $1.6 million. Thereafter, equity awards will be established by the Board in its

discretion.

On July 25, 2025, the Company entered into a separation agreement with Gordon Samson, former President, Intellectual

Property. Mr. Samson ceased to be an executive officer on September 7, 2025 and departed the Company on December

31, 2025. Pursuant to the terms of his separation agreement, in exchange for his execution of a release of claims and

continued compliance with his restrictive covenant obligations, Mr. Samson received (i) lump-sum cash payments equal to

$1,799,853 (using a GBP:USD exchange rate of 1:1.234), (ii) accelerated vesting of any unvested RSUs that would have

vested within 18 months of his termination date, totaling 285,038 shares (which, based on our closing share price on

December 31, 2025, had a value of $952,027), and (iii) if applicable, a tax equalization payment to account for days of

work in the United Kingdom.

On January 18, 2025, the Company entered into a separation agreement with Melanie Margolin, Executive Vice President

and Chief Administrative and Legal Officer. Ms. Margolin ceased to be an executive officer on February 28, 2025 and

departed the Company on March 21, 2025. Pursuant to the terms of her separation agreement, in exchange for her

execution of a release of claims and continued compliance with her restrictive covenant obligations, Ms. Margolin received

(i) lump-sum cash payments equal to $1,875,000, (ii) a lump-sum payment of $40,000 representing reimbursement for the

average monthly cost of COBRA for 18 months, (iii) a prorated target annual bonus for 2025 in the amount of $136,986,

(iv) reimbursement of legal fees related to the separation agreement up to $15,000, (v) accelerated vesting of any

unvested RSUs that would have vested within 18 months of her termination date, totaling 429,791 shares (which, based

on our closing share price on March 21, 2025, had a value of $1,757,845), and (vi) if applicable, a tax equalization

payment to account for any incremental tax liability that is not offset by a U.S. foreign tax credit for Ms. Margolin’s work in

the United Kingdom.

Both of these separation agreements are consistent with the benefits provided under the ESP.

CEO PAY RATIO

As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Act, we are providing the following information about the relationship of

the annual total compensation of our employees (other than our CEO) and the annual total compensation of our CEO, Mr.

Shem Tov, on December 31, 2025 (the “ Measurement Date ”).

For 2025, our last completed fiscal year:

v The annual total compensation of our median employee was $46,275.

v The annual total compensation of our CEO, as annualized for purposes of the pay ratio and discussed below, was

$8,350,984.

Based on this information for 2025, the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to that of our median employee

is approximately 180:1. We believe our CEO pay ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with

Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.

To identify the median employee, as well as to determine the annual total compensation of the median employee, the

methodology and the material assumptions and adjustments that we used were as follows:

• As of the Measurement Date, our employee population for purposes of calculating our pay comprised 12,340

employees globally, with approximately 19% of our employee population located in the United States and 81%

located outside the United States.

• We included all full-time and part-time employees worldwide, excluding our CEO, except that, as permitted under

the SEC rules, we utilized the de minimis exemption to exclude 299 employees, approximately 2.4% of our

employee population, in the following countries:

Azerbaijan (1) Chile (9) Colombia (11) Egypt (1)
Hungary (5) Malaysia (263) Philippines (3) South Africa (4)
Ukraine (1) Uzbekistan (1)

• To identify the median employee from our employee population, we relied on the base pay plus target bonus of

our employees, as reported in our centralized human resource system on the Measurement Date, as these are

the primary compensation elements for most of our employees. We did not make any cost-of-living adjustments in

identifying the median employee.

• Using this methodology, we determined that the median employee was a full-time worker in the United Kingdom.

• With respect to the annual total compensation of the median employee, we calculated the employee’s

compensation for 2025 in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c) of Regulation S-K, resulting in an

annual total compensation of $46,275.

SEC rules for identifying the median employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total

compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable

estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. As a result, the pay ratio

reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies have different

employee populations and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates, and

assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.

PROPOSAL 3: RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT

REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

The Audit Committee of the Board has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“ PwC ”) as the Company’s independent

registered public accountants to audit our books, records, and accounts and those of our subsidiaries for the fiscal year

2026 . The Board has endorsed this appointment.

Ratification of the selection of PwC by shareholders is not required by law and is being sought on a non-binding and

advisory basis. However, as a matter of good corporate practice, such selection is being submitted to the shareholders for

ratification at the Annual Meeting. If the shareholders do not ratify the selection, the Board and the Audit Committee will

reconsider whether to retain PwC, but may, in their discretion, retain PwC. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit

Committee, in its discretion, may change the appointment at any time during the year if it determines that such change

would be in the best interests of Clarivate and its shareholders.

PwC has audited the Company’s consolidated financial statements and those of our predecessor since 2016.

Representatives of PwC will be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement, if they

desire to do so, and will be available to respond to appropriate shareholder questions.

Audit, Audit-Related, and Tax Fees

In connection with the audit of the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 , we

entered into an engagement letter with PwC that sets forth the terms by which PwC performed audit services for us.

Aggregate fees for professional services rendered for us by PwC for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 ,

respectively, were as follows:

(In thousands) 2025 2024
Audit Fees $ 8,366 $ 8,514
Audit-Related Fees 142 64
Tax Fees
All Other Fees 2 2
Total $ 8,510 $ 8,580

Audit Fees. Audit fees consist of fees billed for professional services rendered for the audit of our consolidated financial

statements, the statutory audit of our subsidiaries, the review of our interim consolidated financial statements, and other

services that are normally provided by PwC in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements and

attestation services, except those not required by statute or regulation.

Audit-Related Fees. Audit-related fees consist of fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably

related to the performance of the audit or review of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and are not reported

under “Audit Fees.” These services may include employee benefit plan audits, due diligence services related to

acquisitions and divestitures, auditing work in proposed transactions, attestation services that are not required by

regulation or statute, and consultations regarding financial accounting or reporting standards. For 2025 , all audit-related

fees were for services associated with attestation services not required by regulation or statute.

Tax Fees. Tax fees consist of tax compliance consultants, preparation of tax reports, and other tax services.

All Other Fees. All other fees for 2025 and 2024 consisted of license fees for utilization of technical databases.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee has implemented pre-approval policies and procedures related to the provision of audit and non-

audit services by PwC. Under these procedures, the Audit Committee pre-approves both the type of services to be

provided by PwC and the estimated fees related to these services.

During the approval process, the Audit Committee considers the impact of the types of services and the related fees on

the independence of the registered public accountants. The services and fees must be deemed compatible with the

maintenance of such accountants’ independence, including compliance with rules and regulations of the SEC, the Public

Company Accounting Oversight Board, and the NYSE.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Clarivate 2026 Proxy Statement

The Audit Committee has delegated authority to pre-approve services performed by PwC to the chair of the Audit

Committee for services of up to $1,000,000, with any approvals pursuant to such delegated authority regularly reported to

the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has not delegated any of its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed

by PwC to management. Throughout the year, the Audit Committee will review any revisions to the estimates of audit and

non-audit fees initially approved.

The text of the resolution with respect to Proposal 3 (which is proposed as an

ordinary resolution) is as follows:

RESOLVED , that the shareholders of the Company hereby reappoint PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s

auditors, ratify their appointment as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year 2026 on

a non-binding and advisory basis, and authorize the Board of Directors, acting through its Audit Committee, to determine

the fees to be paid to the auditors.”

Vote Required and Recommendation

The appointment of PwC is ratified if approved by a simple majority of the votes cast by, or on behalf of, the shareholders

entitled to vote in person or represented by proxy. Unless marked to the contrary, proxies received will be voted “FOR” this

Proposal 3 regarding the ratification of PwC as our independent registered public accountants. In the event the

appointment of PwC is not ratified, the Audit Committee will review its future selection of our independent registered public

accountants.

With respect to Proposal 3, you may instruct to vote “FOR” or “AGAINST,” or “ABSTAIN” from voting on, such proposal. If

you “ABSTAIN” from voting, your vote is not considered a vote cast and will have no effect for such proposal. If you do not

provide your broker or other nominee with instructions on how to vote your shares with respect to Proposal 3, your broker

or nominee will be entitled to cast discretionary votes on Proposal 3 as such proposal is a “routine” matter.

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE REAPPOINTMENT OF PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS LLP AS OUR AUDITORS, RATIFY THEIR APPOINTMENT AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2026 ON A NON- BINDING AND ADVISORY BASIS, AND AUTHORIZE THE BOARD, ACTING THROUGH ITS AUDIT COMMITTEE, TO DETERMINE THE FEES TO BE PAID TO THE AUDITORS.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The following report of the Audit Committee does not constitute “soliciting material” and

shall not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other filing by Clarivate

under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

The Audit Committee provides assistance to the Board in fulfilling its legal and fiduciary obligations in matters involving the

Company’s accounting, auditing, financial reporting, internal control, and legal compliance functions. It does so by

approving the services performed by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“ PwC ”), the Company’s independent registered

public accountants, and reviewing their reports regarding the Company’s accounting practices and systems of internal

controls. The Audit Committee also oversees the performance of the Company’s internal audit function.

The Committee’s responsibilities are stated in a written charter adopted by the Board.

The Company’s management is responsible for preparing the Company’s financial statements, and PwC is responsible for

auditing those financial statements. The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the conduct of these activities by

the Company’s management and PwC.

To fulfill its responsibility, the Audit Committee has met regularly and held discussions with management, with the

Company’s internal auditors, and with PwC. It has discussed with PwC the applicable requirements of the Public

Company Accounting Oversight Board and the SEC. Management represented to the Audit Committee that the

Company’s consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2025 were prepared in accordance with generally accepted

accounting principles, and the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements with

management and PwC.

The Audit Committee has also discussed and confirmed with PwC its independence from the Company and has received

from PwC all written disclosures and correspondence required by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. In

addition, the Audit Committee has evaluated the non-audit services provided by PwC to the Company and has concluded

that these do not impair PwC’s independence.

The Audit Committee has discussed with internal accountants, internal auditors, and PwC, with and without management

present, its evaluations of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and the overall quality of the Company’s

financial reporting.

Based on the reviews and discussions described above, the Audit Committee approved the audited consolidated financial

statements for fiscal year 2025 and recommended to the Board their inclusion in the Annual Report.

Respectfully submitted by the Audit Committee of the Board:

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

Review and Approval of Related Person Transactions

We follow processes and policies, including our written policy on related person transactions, that are designed to detect

and, if appropriate, approve and disclose any transaction that would constitute a “related person transaction” under SEC

rules. Such transactions would include material transactions and transactions involving an amount exceeding $120,000 in

which any Clarivate directors, nominees for director, executive officers, greater than five percent shareholders or any of

their respective immediate family members or affiliates, or the employers of any of them, has a direct or indirect material

interest.

The Board has delegated the responsibility for reviewing related person transactions to the Audit Committee. To support

this process, each year we solicit internal disclosure of any transactions between Clarivate and its directors and officers,

their immediate family members, and their affiliated entities and employers, including the nature of each transaction and

the amount involved.

The Audit Committee annually reviews and evaluates such information for each director as part of its assessment of each

director’s independence.

In addition, all directors, officers, and employees of Clarivate are governed by the Clarivate Code of Conduct, which

requires individuals to act in the best interest of Clarivate and avoid or seek approval for conflicts of interest. Individuals

are responsible for identifying conflicts of interest as soon as they arise and contacting our compliance team prior to

engaging in the conduct if they are unsure whether such relationship or transaction poses a conflict.

If the Audit Committee were presented with a proposed related person transaction, it would evaluate the relevant facts and

circumstances to determine whether to approve it. Factors include the terms of the transaction relative to the terms that

could be obtained in arm’s-length dealings with an unrelated person, the extent of the related person’s interest in the

transaction, the conflicts of interest (if any), and the provisions of the Clarivate Code of Conduct and whether the

transaction meets any of the criteria for pre-approval.

Transactions Involving Related Persons

Assumed Finance Lease

On December 1, 2021, Clarivate completed the acquisition of ProQuest from CIG and certain other equity holders. As part

of the acquisition, Clarivate assumed a finance lease in which CIG is the lessor. Mr. Snyder serves as Chief Executive

Officer of CIG. For the year ended December 31, 2025 , Clarivate recognized interest expense of $2.0 million and

amortization expense for the finance lease right-of-use (“ ROU ”) asset of $0.5 million . The finance lease ROU asset of $8.0

million is shown on Clarivate’s financial statements, and the corresponding lease liability of $28.1 million is treated as

indebtedness.

Sublease

CIG is a subtenant for certain office space leased by Clarivate through June 2, 2026, with annual renewals through March

31, 2029 unless not renewed by either party. CIG pays Clarivate a monthly subtenancy fee of $22,000 .

Customer and Vendor Arrangements

Mr. Snyder is affiliated with a Clarivate customer and vendor. During the year ended December 31, 2025 , the Company

recognized revenues of $0.5 million and incurred expenses of $4.9 million related to such customer and vendor

arrangement.

Exor is affiliated with a Clarivate customer and with a Clarivate vendor. In the aggregate, during the year ended December

31, 2025, the Company recognized revenues of $3.0 million and incurred expenses of $3.8 million related to such

customer and vendor arrangements.

Reimbursement of Tax Adviser Fees

In connection with an IRS examination of ProQuest’s tax returns, CIG engaged its tax adviser to provide the Company

with certain historical tax information relating to ProQuest that the Company requires to effectively manage the tax

examination. The Company agreed to pay for the expenses of CIG’s tax adviser related to the provision of such

information, paid directly to the tax adviser. The Company currently expects the expense reimbursement to CIG’s tax

adviser to be up to $0.4 million .

Shareholder Proposals Not Eligible for Inclusion in the Company’s Proxy

Statement

ineligible for presentation at the 2027 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders unless the shareholder gives timely notice

of the proposal in writing to the General Counsel at the principal executive offices of Clarivate and complies with the

requirements of the Articles, which are summarized below.

A proposal may be properly brought before an annual general meeting by any shareholder of the Company who is a

shareholder of record on both the date of the giving of the notice by such shareholder provided for in the Articles and the

record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote at such annual general meeting, and who complies with

the notice and other procedures set forth in the Articles, which are summarized below. Please see the Articles for the full

Shareholder Proposals Other Than Director Nominations

The Articles set forth requirements for shareholders wishing to propose business other than the nomination of directors at

an annual general meeting. An eligible shareholder who follows these procedures is not entitled to have their proposal

included in the Company’s proxy statement and therefore would be required to solicit their own proxies in accordance with

any applicable laws and rules.

To be timely, such shareholder’s notice must be delivered to the General Counsel at the principal executive offices of the

Company no earli er than January 14, 2027 , and no later than February 13, 2027 , unle ss the 2027 Annual General

Meeting of Shareholders occurs on a date more than 30 days earlier or later than the 2026 Annual General Meeting of

Shareholders. In that case, the Board will determine a date that is a reasonable period prior to the 2027 Annual General

Meeting of Shareholders by which the shareholder’s notice must be delivered and publicize that date in a filing with the

SEC or via press release at least 14 days prior to the date set by the Board.

To be in proper written form, in summary, a shareholder’s notice to the Company must set forth as to such matter such

shareholder proposes to bring before the annual general meeting, among other things:

v a reasonably brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual general meeting, including the

text of the proposal or business, and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual general meeting;

v the name and address, as they appear on the Company’s Register of shareholders, of the shareholder proposing

such business and any Associated Person (as defined below);

v the class or series and number of shares of the Company that are held of record or are beneficially owned by such

shareholder or any Associated Person and any derivative positions held or beneficially held by the shareholder or any

Associated Person;

v whether and the extent to which any hedging or other transaction or series of transactions has been entered into by or

on behalf of such shareholder or any Associated Person with respect to any securities of the Company, and a

description of any other agreement, arrangement, or understanding (including any short position or any borrowing or

lending of shares), the effect or intent of which is to mitigate loss to, or to manage the risk or benefit from share price

changes for, or to increase or decrease the voting power of, such shareholder or any Associated Person with respect

to any securities of the Company;

v any material interest of the shareholder or an Associated Person in such business, including a reasonably detailed

description of all agreements, arrangements, and understandings between or among any of such shareholders or

between or among any proposing shareholders and any other person or entity (including their names) in connection

with the proposal of such business by such shareholder; and

v a statement as to whether such shareholder or any Associated Person will deliver a proxy statement and form of

proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Company’s voting shares required under applicable law and the

rules of the Designated Stock Exchange to carry the proposal.

An Associated Person of any shareholder includes:

v any affiliate (as defined in the Articles) of, or person acting in concert with, such shareholder;

v any beneficial owner of shares of the Company owned of record or beneficially by such shareholder and on whose

behalf the proposal or nomination, as the case may be, is being made; and

v any person controlling, controlled by, or under common control with a person referred to in the preceding two bullets.

Shareholder’s Nomination of a Director

The Articles also set forth requirements for shareholders wishing to nominate directors. An eligible shareholder who

follows these procedures is not entitled to have their nomination included in the Company’s proxy statement and therefore

would be required to solicit their own proxies in accordance with any applicable laws and rules.

In summary, for a nomination for election of a director to be made by a shareholder of the Company (other than directors

to be nominated by any series of preferred shares, voting separately as a class), or nominations made pursuant to a

contract with the Company, such shareholder must, among other things:

v be a shareholder of record on both the date of the giving of the notice by such shareholder provided for in the Articles

and the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote at such annual general meeting;

a shareholder’s authorized proxy holder, or one representative designated in writing to present a shareholder proposal. If

No weapons, cameras, audio or video recording equipment, electronic devices, large bags, briefcases, or packages will

APPENDIX A

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

We use non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our business and trends, measure performance, prepare financial

projections, and make strategic decisions. Although we believe these measures may be similarly useful to investors in

evaluating our business, these measures are not a substitute for GAAP financial measures or disclosures. Reconciliations

of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided below.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin

We use Adjusted EBITDA as a basis for evaluating our ongoing operating performance, and we believe it is useful for

investors to understand the underlying trends of our operations. Adjusted EBITDA represents Net income (loss) before the

Provision (benefit) for income taxes, Depreciation and amortization, and Interest expense, net, adjusted to exclude

acquisition and/or disposal-related transaction costs, share-based compensation, restructuring expenses, impairments,

the impact of certain non-cash fair value adjustments on financial instruments, unrealized foreign currency gains/losses,

legal settlements, and other items that are included in Net income (loss) for the period that we do not consider indicative

of our ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by Revenues.

Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed as an inference that our

future results will be unaffected by any of the adjusted items, or that our projections and estimates will be realized in their

entirety or at all. In addition, because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of

liquidity or discretionary cash available to us to fund our cash needs, including investing in the growth of our business and

meeting our obligations.

The following table presents our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin for the years ended

December 31, 2025 and 2024 , and reconciles these non-GAAP measures to our Net income (loss) and Net income (loss)

margin for the same periods:

(in millions) Year Ended December 31, — 2025 2024
Net income (loss) $ (201.1) $ (636.7)
Provision (benefit) for income taxes 7.2 82.9
Depreciation and amortization 757.2 727.0
Interest expense, net 265.4 283.4
Share-based compensation expense 63.0 60.6
Goodwill and intangible asset impairments 15.0 540.7
Restructuring and other impairments 50.7 19.6
Fair value adjustment of warrants (5.2)
Transaction related costs 22.5 17.9
Other (1) 21.9 (29.8)
Adjusted EBITDA $ 1,001.8 $ 1,060.4
Net income (loss) margin (8.3) % (24.9) %
Adjusted EBITDA margin 40.8 % 41.5 %

(1) Includes the net impact of foreign exchange gains and losses related to the remeasurement of balances and other items that do not reflect our

ongoing operating performance.

Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS

Adjusted net income represents Net income (loss), adjusted to exclude amortization related to acquired intangible assets,

share-based compensation, impairments, restructuring expenses, the impact of certain non-cash fair value adjustments

on financial instruments, acquisition and/or disposal-related transaction costs, unrealized foreign currency gains/losses,

legal settlements, and other items that are included in net income (loss) for the period that we do not consider indicative of

our ongoing operating performance and the associated income tax impact of such adjustments.

Adjusted diluted EPS is calculated by dividing Adjusted net income by Adjusted diluted weighted average shares. The

Adjusted diluted weighted average shares calculation assumes that all instruments in the calculation are dilutive.

Clarivate 2026 Proxy Statement

The following table presents our calculation of Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS for the years ended

December 31, 2025 and 2024 and reconciles these non-GAAP measures to our Net income (loss) and diluted EPS for the

same periods:

Year Ended December 31, — 2025 2024
(In millions, except per share amounts) Amount Per Share Amount Per Share
Net income (loss) and Diluted EPS $ (201.1) $ (0.30) $ (636.7) $ (0.92)
Amortization related to acquired intangible assets 545.5 0.81 554.1 0.80
Share-based compensation expense 63.0 0.09 60.6 0.09
Goodwill and intangible asset impairments 15.0 0.02 540.7 0.78

Other (1) 24.8 0.04 (29.8) (0.08)
Income tax impact of related adjustments (52.3) (0.08) 4.1 0.01
Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS $ 468.1 $ 0.69 $ 525.3 $ 0.73
Adjusted weighted average ordinary shares, diluted 679.3 721.5

(1) Includes the net impact of foreign exchange gains and losses related to the remeasurement of balances and other items that do not reflect our

ongoing operating performance.

Free cash flow

We use Free cash flow in our operational and financial decision-making and believe it is useful to investors because

similar measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors, ratings agencies, and other interested parties to

measure the ability of a company to service its debt. Our presentation of Free cash flow should not be considered as a

measure of liquidity or discretionary cash available to us to fund our cash needs, including investing in the growth of our

business and meeting our obligations.

We define Free cash flow as Net cash provided by operating activities less Capital expenditures.

The following table reconciles our non-GAAP Free cash flow measure to Net cash provided by operating activities for the

years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 :

(in millions) Year Ended December 31, — 2025 2024
Net cash provided by operating activities $ 628.5 $ 646.6
Capital expenditures (263.2) (289.1)
Free cash flow $ 365.3 $ 357.5
