**Thomson Reuters Reminds Non-Canadian Taxable Shareholders of "Opt-Out" Alternative for Return of Capital** 

***Action is required to opt out***

***Opt-out deadlines vary by intermediary and may be earlier than April 27, 2026***

**Toronto, April 14, 2026** – Thomson Reuters (TSX/Nasdaq: TRI) today reminded its shareholders who are taxable in a jurisdiction outside of Canada that they can "opt out" of the company's proposed return of capital. **For shareholders who are subject to income tax outside Canada, opting out of the return of capital may be preferable to participating in the return of capital**.

As described in the company's management proxy circular dated March 13, 2026 (the "**Circular**"), the proposed return of capital and share consolidation transactions consist of a special cash distribution of US$605 million in the aggregate, or approximately US$1.36 per common share (estimated based on the number of common shares issued and outstanding as of March 6, 2026 and assuming no shareholders opt-out of the return of capital), and a consolidation of the company's outstanding common shares (or "reverse stock split") on a basis that is proportional to the special cash distribution.

The return of capital is intended to distribute cash on a basis that is generally expected to be tax-free for Canadian tax purposes. As a result, Canadian resident shareholders are generally not eligible to opt out of the return of capital. Eligibility criteria for opting out of the return of capital is set out below.

**Opting out** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **What happens if you opt out:** If you're eligible to opt out of the return of capital and choose
to do so, you will not receive the special cash distribution. Each opting-out shareholder will still participate in the proposed transactions through a share exchange and the share consolidation, but will
continue to hold the same number of shares that it currently holds. Such opting-out shareholders will realize a proportionate increase in their equity and voting interests in the company by virtue of the
consolidation of the participating shares under the share consolidation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Process:** If you're a non-registered holder (i.e., you
hold shares through a bank or broker), follow your bank or broker's instructions if you'd like to opt out of the return of capital. You should contact your bank or broker if you have not received information regarding how to opt out of
the return of capital. Registered shareholders should follow instructions sent to them by Computershare Trust Company of Canada, including depositing with Computershare a duly completed opt-out election and
certification form prior to 5:00 p.m. EDT on April 27, 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Deadline:** Any opt-out elections should be completed by the
deadline set by your bank/broker or Computershare (depending on whether you're a non-registered or registered holder).

If you're not eligible to opt out of the return of capital or are eligible to opt out but decide not to, no action is required to participate in the return of capital.

**Tax Consequences** 

The Canadian and U.S. tax consequences of the proposed return of capital and share consolidation transactions are complex. Shareholders are encouraged to review the Circular and related materials carefully and to consult their financial, tax and legal advisors before making a decision with respect to the transactions, including any decision to opt out of the return of capital.

**Conversion and Share Consolidation Ratios** 

Pursuant to the terms of the plan of arrangement to implement the return of capital and share consolidation transactions, each issued and outstanding non-participating share will be exchanged for one New Common Share and, after the return of capital to participating shareholders, each issued and outstanding New Common Share will be exchanged for a number of common shares equal to the Conversion Ratio and each issued and outstanding common share will then be consolidated into a number of post-consolidation shares equal to the Share Consolidation Ratio. Accordingly, non-participants in the return of capital will still participate in the share consolidation but will ultimately hold the same number of common shares as prior to the transactions, and participating shareholders will hold a fewer number of common shares to reflect the return of capital received.

Below is a description of the Conversion and Share Consolidation Ratios, as well as a numerical example:

The "Conversion Ratio" will be calculated as follows:

---

| |
|:---|
| 1 |
| 1 – (Cash Distribution Per Share /$X) |

---

where X is the volume weighted average trading price of Thomson Reuters shares on the Nasdaq for the five trading days on which Thomson Reuters shares trade on the Nasdaq immediately preceding the effective date of the transactions.

The "Share Consolidation Ratio" will be calculated as follows:

---

| |
|:---|
| $X – Cash Distribution Per Share |
| $X |

---

where X is the volume weighted average trading price of Thomson Reuters shares on the Nasdaq for the five trading days on which Thomson Reuters shares trade on the Nasdaq immediately preceding the effective date of the transactions.

The Conversion and Share Consolidation Ratios will be fixed after close of business on the last trading day preceding the effective date of the transactions in order to allow Thomson Reuters to consolidate the common shares on a basis that is proportional to the return of capital distribution.

(1) The share consolidation ratio used in this example is for illustrative purposes only. The actual Share
Consolidation Ratio will be based on the volume weighed average trading price of the common shares on the NASDAQ for the five trading days immediately prior to the return of capital becoming effective. The ratio in this example is based on a share
price of US$90.

(2) As disclosed in the Circular, only "Eligible Opt-Out Shareholders" (which include taxable U.S. resident shareholders and others) will be able to opt out of the Return of Capital.

(3) As disclosed in the Circular, fractional shares that would otherwise be held by a shareholder following the
share consolidation will generally be sold on such holder's behalf and such holder will receive the net cash proceeds from such sale.

(4) This example does not address tax consequences to shareholders.

(5) Non-participants in the return of capital will still participate in the
transaction, but will ultimately hold the same number of common shares as prior to the transactions.

The foregoing discussion of the Conversion and Share Consolidation Ratios is intended to provide a general summary only. Shareholders are encouraged to read the Circular in its entirety.

**Additional information and assistance** 

To be eligible to opt out of the return of capital, a shareholder must be an "Eligible Opt-Out Shareholder," which means a shareholder (whether registered or non-registered) who is (a) not a resident of Canada for Canadian federal income tax purposes and is subject to income tax in a jurisdiction other than Canada (and is not exempt from income tax in that jurisdiction) or (b) an individual who is a resident of Canada for Canadian federal income tax purposes and who is also subject to income tax in a jurisdiction other than Canada as a resident of that other jurisdiction (and is not exempt from income tax in that other jurisdiction).

Details of the return of capital and share consolidation transactions (including information regarding the opt-out right and tax considerations) are described in the Circular and related materials, which are available on <u>www.thomsonreuters.com</u> in the "Investor relations" section. The documents were filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities on SEDAR+ and are available at <u>www.sedarplus.com</u>.
