Indemnification of Directors or Officers.
Thomson Reuters directors are indemnified by Thomson Reuters Corporation and Thomson Reuters
PLC to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations.
Under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), a corporation may indemnify a present or former
director or officer or an individual who acts or acted at the corporations request as a director
or officer or in a similar capacity of another entity, against all costs, charges and expenses,
including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the
director in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in
which the director is involved because of that association with the corporation or other entity,
provided that the individual acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of
the corporation or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the
individual acted at the corporations request, and, in the case of a criminal or administrative
action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, such individual had reasonable grounds
for believing that his or her conduct was lawful.
Under the Companies Act 1985 (UK), as amended (the UK Companies Act), a company may not
directly or indirectly indemnify a director of a company in connection with any negligence,
default, breach of duty or breach of trust by the director in relation to the company unless the
indemnity constitutes a qualifying third party indemnity provision. An indemnity will be a
qualifying third party indemnity provision for the purposes of the UK Companies Act, provided
that it does not indemnify the director against any liability the director incurs:
|
|
|
to the company or to an associated company (an associated company is, in effect, a
company in the same group); |
|
|
|
|
to pay a criminal fine or a regulatory penalty; |
|
|
|
|
in defending criminal proceedings in which the director is convicted; |
|
|
|
|
in defending civil proceedings brought by the company, or an associated company, in
which judgment is given against the director; or |
|
|
|
|
in an unsuccessful application for relief from liability under the UK Companies Act. |
Thomson Reuters maintains, at its expense, a directors and officers liability insurance
policy that provides protection for its directors and officers against liability incurred by them
in their capacities as such. This policy provides for a limit of at least $100 million for each
claim and $100 million in the aggregate and that there is no deductible for this coverage. The
insurance applies in certain circumstances where Thomson Reuters may not indemnify its directors
and officers for their acts or omissions. Premiums paid by Thomson Reuters relating to directors
and officers liability insurance are between $2 million and $3.5 million per annum.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted
to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the applicable provisions, we have
been informed that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Item 10. Undertakings
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
amendment to this Registration Statement;
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the
Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or
in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration
Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered
(if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and
any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in
the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering
price set forth in the Calculation of Registration Fee table in the effective Registration
Statement;
II-3
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in
this Registration Statement;
provided, however, that the undertakings set forth above in paragraphs (1)(i),
(1)(ii) and (1)(iii) do not apply if the Registration Statement is on
Form S-3 or Form F-3 and
the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to
section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by
reference in the Registration Statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to
Rule 424(b) that is part of the Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) If the Registrant is a foreign private issuer, to file a post-effective amendment to the
Registration Statement to include any financial statements required
by Item 8.A. of Form 20-F (17
CFR 249.220f) at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial
statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933
need not be furnished, provided that the Registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a
post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph (4) and other
information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current
as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to
Registration Statements on Form F-3, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include
financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 or
Rule 3-19 of Regulation S-X if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic
reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or
section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Form F-3.
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any
purchaser: if the registrant is relying on Rule 430B: (A) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to
Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed
prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and (B) Each prospectus
required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration
statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i),
(vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the
Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as
of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of
the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided
in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an
underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement
relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that
is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by
reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement
will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or
modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the
registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrants annual reports pursuant to
Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each
filing of an employee benefit plans annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by
II-4
reference in this Registration Statement shall be
deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at
that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with
the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
