MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS 

MAY 22, 2014

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

To our Shareholders and Stakeholders,

Trust is the foundation of our business. As the accelerating pace of change reshapes global markets before our eyes, our customers are required to react faster than ever before and to sort through an increasingly complex tsunami of information and ever-changing regulation. Against this backdrop, our ability to separate the signal from the noise has never been more important. We are privileged to be trusted for the decisions that matter most. We believe the greatest value we deliver is the ability for our customers to act with confidence in a complex world.

We know that trust must be earned every day. And we dedicate ourselves to that task in everything we do.

2013: Execution and Momentum

Our financial performance in 2013 demonstrated an ability to execute on our strategy in a volatile and shifting global environment. We delivered on our financial outlook for 2013 despite challenges to two of our largest customer groups – large global banks and big U.S. law firms. More importantly, we improved our position with customers, launched new products, continued to reduce operating expenses and announced another dividend increase for our shareholders.

We saw promising growth in many of our business units. Our Intellectual Property & Science unit grew revenues 11%. Our Tax & Accounting unit grew 9%. Our Legal business was up 3%. And our businesses in emerging markets grew by 10% during the year.

While revenues from our Financial business declined 1%, we continued to make tangible progress both from operating and competitive perspectives. It will take more time before this progress translates into positive revenue growth for this business. Eikon is our flagship desktop product for financial professionals, and we were pleased that there were nearly three times as many installed Eikon desktops -- more than 122,000 -- at the end of the year than there were at the beginning. Both customer satisfaction and sales trends improved throughout the year and we expect more of the same through 2014.

2014: Customer-Driven Growth

We enter 2014 on a positive trajectory and in a far stronger competitive position than a year ago. Our Financial business is working closely with our largest customers to help them retool for the competitive challenges ahead. We expect our Legal business to continue to make good progress as it evolves into a solutions business, helping law firms improve productivity, manage their businesses more efficiently and grow more quickly. And we believe that IP & Science and Tax & Accounting will keep building from their strong performances last year. The global markets in which they operate continue to expand and they each hold strong market positions.

Expanding on the progress made in 2013, this year we will sharpen our focus on innovation and driving higher rates of organic growth. We will increasingly work across our internal units to deliver customers the full power of our enterprise. We believe that the breadth and depth of our content, market-moving news, technology platforms, applications, transaction capabilities, cloud-based services and workflow solutions are unrivaled across our competitive set. In fact, our strongest customer relationships today are those where we engage across multiple touch points. By working to reduce internal complexity and simplify our organization, we believe there is a great opportunity to build on those strong foundations.

Moreover, we are unlocking the extraordinary talent of our people through a sweeping culture change program aimed at strengthening accountability, creativity and collaboration at all levels of our organization.

Well Positioned to Capitalize on Global Trends

Today Thomson Reuters stands at the crossroads of information and technology, of regulation and global commerce. It's a busy intersection. While the global trends that are reshaping our customers' worlds are unprecedented and require that we evolve, they also create unprecedented opportunities for us.

In the deluge of data, professionals need content they can trust. They need accurate, timely and relevant information on which they can base critical decisions.

We hold as sacred that role of trusted source. It has been built over generations in each of our markets – in fact over more than 100 years in more than 100 countries around the world. Over those years we have built deep relationships that allow us to connect our customers with opportunities locally and across regions.

The global regulatory environment is not only intense and aggressive, it also is uncoordinated. Our regional strength gives us the ability to monitor across jurisdictions and we also have deep vertical expertise that allows our customers to manage issues and regulations specific to their businesses.

As we continue to evolve into an enterprise that balances vertical and regional expertise with global scale, we look to harness the full power of our assets and expertise to meet customers' rising expectations -- building new and broader partnerships, and empowering our customers to act with confidence in an ever-more complex world.

Thomson Reuters Management Proxy Circular

We believe the steps we are taking to transform Thomson Reuters will result in a more nimble and effective enterprise with deeper customer relationships, higher and more sustainable organic revenue growth, and stronger earnings. We are excited about the journey.

Transforming Our World

In 2013, we made our Corporate Responsibility program more relevant by realigning our focus areas to better align with the mission and values of the organization. We report on our progress in an annual global Corporate Responsibility report.

We are proud of the Thomson Reuters employees who volunteered more than 91,000 hours of community service in 2013, more than doubling the hours recorded in 2012. We recognize and reward employee community service efforts through our Community Champion Awards program with company donations to support personal charitable initiatives across the globe. We continue to develop and enhance our internal philanthropy platform, My Community, which offers employees access to matching gifts, volunteering and employee giving programs. And, importantly, we provide products and services across our business operations which support our Corporate Responsibility focus, as well as our website, sustainability.thomsonreuters.com, which brings together our work advising decision makers in the professional and business communities on sustainability issues.

2013 was also a banner year for The Thomson Reuters Foundation, a not-for-profit organization supported by our company, which leverages skills and expertise across our organization to increase trust in and access to the rule of law, saving lives through the provision of trusted information and improving standards of journalism. We encourage you to read about the Foundation's work in its annual report and on its website, www.trust.org.

Like the solutions, services and platforms which we provide our customers, our philanthropic efforts help to create a more informed, empowered and prosperous world.

Heartfelt Thanks

As always, we are grateful to our customers, employees and shareholders for their trust, and to our Board for their guidance and support.

After many years of distinguished service on our Board, Lawton W. Fitt, Sir Deryck Maughan and John M. Thompson are completing their terms this spring. We cannot thank them enough for the deep insight and wise counsel they have provided over the years.

David Thomson	James C. Smith
Chairman of the Board	President & Chief Executive Officer

Certain statements in the letter are forward-looking. These forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and reflect our current expectations. As a result, forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations.

Very truly yours,

David Thomson	James C. Smith

Who can vote at the meeting?

If you held common shares as of 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) on March 31, 2014 (the record date), then you are entitled to vote at the meeting or any adjourned or postponed meeting. Each share is entitled to one vote. As of March 25, 2014, there were 813,999,450common shares outstanding.

We also have 6,000,000 Series II preference shares outstanding, but these shares do not have voting rights at the meeting.

How many votes are required for approval?

A simple majority (more than 50%) of votes cast, in person or by proxy, is required to approve each item of business.

How do I vote?

You have two choices – you can vote by proxy, or you can attend the meeting and vote in person. The voting process is different for each choice. The voting process also depends on whether you are a registered or non-registered shareholder.

You should first determine whether you are a registered or non-registered holder of our common shares. Most of our shareholders are non-registered holders.

· You are a registered shareholderif your name appears directly on your share certificates, or if you hold your common shares in book-entry form through the direct registration system (DRS) on the records of our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company of Canada.

· You are a non-registered shareholderif you own shares indirectly and the shares are registered in the name of an intermediary. For example, you are a non-registered shareholder if:

o your common shares are held in the name of a bank, trust company, securities broker, trustee or custodian; or

o you hold Depositary Interests representing our common shares which are held in the name of Computershare Company Nominees Limited as nominee and custodian.

Non-registered shareholders are sometimes referred to as “beneficial owners”.

Voting by proxy

If it is not convenient for you to attend the meeting, you may vote by proxy on the matters to be considered at the meeting. A proxy is a document that authorizes someone else to attend the meeting and cast votes for you.

Non-registered shareholders

If you are a non-registered shareholder who receives a proxy form or voting instruction form (VIF), you should follow your intermediary’s instruction for completing the form. Holders of Depositary Interests will receive a voting form of instruction or direction from Computershare Investor Services PLC.

Registered shareholders

· You may authorize our directors who are named on the enclosed proxy form to vote your shares as your proxyholder. You may give voting instructions by mail, the Internet or telephone. Please refer to your proxy form for instructions.

· You may appoint another person to attend the meeting on your behalf and vote your shares as your proxyholder. If you choose this option, you can appoint your proxy by mail or through the Internet. If you mail the proxy form, you must print that person’s name in the blank space provided on the back of the enclosed proxy form and you should indicate how you want your shares voted. Sign, date and return the proxy form in the envelope provided. If you vote through the Internet, you may also appoint another person to be your proxyholder. You may choose anyone to be your proxyholder; the person does not have to be another shareholder.You may be able to appoint more than one proxyholder, provided that each proxyholder is entitled to exercise the rights attaching to different shares held by you. If you do appoint more than one proxyholder, you must do so by mail, and please enter the number of shares next to the proxyholder’s name that he or she is entitled to vote. The person you appoint must attend the meeting and vote on your behalf in order for your votes to be counted. Proxyholders should register with representatives of Computershare Trust Company of Canada when they arrive at the meeting.

Voting in person 

Non-registered shareholders

You should do one of the following if you plan to attend the meeting:

· If you have received a proxy form from your intermediary, insert your own name in the blank space provided on the proxy form to appoint yourself as proxyholder. If the intermediary has not signed the proxy form, you must sign and date it. Follow your intermediary’s instructions for returning the proxy form; or

· If you have received a VIF from your intermediary, follow your intermediary’s instructions for completing the form.

Registered shareholders

You do not need to do anything except attend the meeting. Do not complete or return your proxy form, as your vote will be taken at the meeting. You should register with representatives of Computershare Trust Company of Canada when you arrive at the meeting. If you wish to vote common shares registered in the name of a legal entity, that entity must submit a properly executed proxy form to Computershare Trust Company of Canada by the proxy cut-off time which appoints you to vote the common shares on its behalf. 

Can I vote my shares by filling out and returning the notice?

No. The notice sets forth the items to be voted on at the meeting, but you cannot vote by marking the notice and returning it. The notice provides instructions on how to vote.

What’s the deadline for receiving my proxy or voting instructions?

If you are a registered shareholder, your proxy or voting instructions must be received by 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) on Tuesday, May 20, 2014. 

Non-registered shareholders may be subject to earlier deadlines as specified in their proxy or voting instructions.

If the meeting is adjourned or postponed, the proxy cut-off deadline will be no later than 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before any adjourned or postponed meeting.

How will my shares be voted if I appoint a proxyholder?

Your proxyholder must vote your shares on each matter according to your instructions if you have properly completed and returned a proxy form. If you have not specified how to vote on a particular matter, then your proxyholder can vote your shares as he or she sees fit. If you have appointed our directors named on the enclosed proxy form as your proxyholder, and you have not specified how you want your shares to be voted, your shares will be voted FOR each of the items of business described in this circular.

What happens if any amendments are properly made to the items of business to be considered or if other matters are properly brought before the meeting?

Your proxyholder will have discretionary authority to vote your shares as he or she sees fit. As of the date of this circular, management knows of no such amendment, variation or other matter expected to come before the meeting.

If I change my mind, how do I revoke my proxy or voting instructions?

Non-registered shareholders

You may revoke your proxy or voting instructions by sending written notice to your intermediary, so long as the intermediary receives your notice at least seven days before the meeting (or as otherwise instructed by your intermediary). This gives your intermediary time to submit the revocation to Computershare Trust Company of Canada. If your revocation is not received in time, your intermediary is not required to act on it.

Registered shareholders

You may revoke your proxy or voting instructions in any of the following ways:

· By completing and signing a proxy form with a later date than the proxy form you previously returned, and delivering it to Computershare Trust Company of Canada at any time before 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) on Tuesday, May 20, 2014. If the meeting is adjourned or postponed, the deadline will be no later than 48 hours before any adjourned or postponed meeting;

Thomson Reuters Management Proxy Circular

· By completing a written statement revoking your instructions, which is signed by you or your attorney authorized in writing, and delivering it:

o To the offices of Computershare Trust Company of Canada at any time before 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) on Wednesday, May 21, 2014. If the meeting is adjourned or postponed, the deadline will be no later than 48 hours before any adjourned or postponed meeting; or

o To the Chair of the meeting before the meeting starts; or

o In any other manner permitted by law.

Who is soliciting my proxy and distributing proxy-related materials?

Thomson Reuters management and directors may solicit your proxy for use at the meeting and any adjourned or postponed meeting. Our management and directors may solicit proxies by mail and in person. We are paying all costs of solicitation. We are not sending proxy-related materials directly to non-objecting beneficial owners and we plan to have such materials distributed by intermediaries. We are paying for intermediaries to send proxy-related materials to both non-objecting beneficial owners and objecting beneficial owners.

Is my vote confidential?

Yes. Our registrar, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, independently counts and tabulates the proxies to preserve the confidentiality of individual shareholder votes. Proxies are referred to us only in cases where a shareholder clearly intends to communicate with management, in the event of questions as to the validity of a proxy or where it is necessary to do so to meet applicable legal requirements.

Voting results

Following the meeting, we will post the voting results in the “Investor Relations” section of our website, www.thomsonreuters.com. We will also file a copy of the results with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities at www.sedar.com and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov. For more information, see the “Additional Information” section of this circular.

ANNUAL AND QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND RELATED MD&A

Our annual and quarterly reports and earnings releases are available in the “Investor Relations” section of our website, www.thomsonreuters.com. Please also see the “Electronic Delivery of Shareholder Communications” section below for information about electronic delivery of these reports and other shareholder communications.

NOTICE-AND-ACCESS

Why did I receive a notice in the mail regarding the website availability of this circular and proxy materials?

We are using the “notice-and-access” system for the delivery of our proxy materials through our website, similar to last year’s meeting. Shareholders who receive a notice have the ability to access the proxy materials on our website and to request a paper copy of the proxy materials. Instructions on how to access the proxy materials through our website or to request a paper copy may be found in the notice.

Electronic delivery reduces the cost and environmental impact of producing and distributing paper copies of documents in very large quantities. It also provides shareholders with faster access to information about Thomson Reuters.

Why didn’t I receive a printed notice in the mail about the website availability of the proxy materials?

Shareholders who previously signed up for electronic delivery of our proxy materials will continue to receive them by e-mail and will not receive a printed notice in the mail.

PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDER AND SHARE CAPITAL

As of March 25, 2014, Woodbridge beneficially owned 455,967,692 of our common shares, or approximately 56% of our outstanding common shares. Woodbridge is the principal and controlling shareholder of Thomson Reuters.

Woodbridge, a private company, is the primary investment vehicle for members of the family of the late Roy H. Thomson, the first Lord Thomson of Fleet. Woodbridge is a professionally managed company that, in addition to its controlling interest in Thomson Reuters, has other substantial investments.

Prior to his passing in 2006, Kenneth R. Thomson controlled our company through Woodbridge. He did so by holding shares of a holding company of Woodbridge, Thomson Investments Limited. Under his estate arrangements, the 2003 TIL Settlement, a trust of which the trust company subsidiary of a Canadian chartered bank is trustee and members of the family of the late first Lord Thomson of Fleet are beneficiaries, holds those holding company shares. Kenneth R. Thomson established these arrangements to provide for long-term stability of the business of Woodbridge. The equity of Woodbridge continues to be owned by members of successive generations of the family of the first Lord Thomson of Fleet.

Under the estate arrangements of Kenneth R. Thomson, the directors and officers of Woodbridge are responsible for its business and operations. In certain limited circumstances, including very substantial dispositions of our company’s common shares by Woodbridge, the estate arrangements provide for approval of the trustee to be obtained.

Note 30 to our 2013 annual consolidated financial statements provides information on certain transactions that we entered into with Woodbridge in 2013 and 2012.

To our knowledge, no other person beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of our common shares.

All of the nominees are currently directors of our company who were elected at last year’s annual meeting of shareholders, except for Sheila Bair, Michael Daniels and P. Thomas Jenkins. Lawton Fitt, Sir Deryck Maughan and John Thompson are not standing for re-election. Ms. Fitt has been a director of our company since 2008 and previously joined the Reuters board in 2004. Sir Deryck Maughan has been a director of our company since 2008 and previously joined the Reuters board in 2005. Mr. Thompson has been a director of our company since 2003. We thank Ms. Fitt, Sir Deryck and Mr. Thompson for their contributions to Thomson Reuters. Ms. Fitt, Sir Deryck and Mr. Thompson will be in attendance at this year’s meeting.

The board unanimously recommends that you vote FOR the election of the following 13 nominees to the Thomson Reuters board of directors: David Thomson, James C. Smith, Sheila C. Bair, Manvinder S. Banga, David W. Binet, Mary Cirillo, Michael E. Daniels, Steven A. Denning, P. Thomas Jenkins, Ken Olisa, OBE, Vance K. Opperman, Peter J. Thomson and Wulf von Schimmelmann.

Voting

You will be asked to vote for each director on an individual basis.

Management does not believe that any of the nominees will be unable to serve as a director but, if this should occur for any reason prior to the meeting, the persons named in the enclosed proxy form may vote for another nominee at their discretion.

Majority voting policy

We have a majority voting policy that applies to the election of directors at the annual meeting of shareholders. This means that if a director receives more “withhold” votes than “for” votes at the meeting, then the director will immediately tender his or her resignation to the Chairman. This would be effective if accepted by the board. The Corporate Governance Committee will consider a director’s offer to resign and make a recommendation to the board as to whether to accept it. The board will accept resignations, except in exceptional circumstances. The board will have 90 days from the annual meeting to make and publicly disclose its decision either to accept or reject the resignation (including reasons for rejecting the resignation, if applicable).

Director qualifications

We believe that all of the director nominees possess character, integrity, judgment, business experience, a record of achievement and other skills and talents which enhance the board and the overall management of the business and affairs of Thomson Reuters. Each director nominee has an understanding of our company’s principal operational and financial objectives, plans and strategies, financial position and performance and the performance of Thomson Reuters relative to our principal competitors. The Corporate Governance Committee considered these qualifications in determining to recommend the director nominees for election. Additional information is provided in the individual director profiles below and in the “Corporate Governance – Corporate Governance Committee” section of this circular.

Independence

A majority of the board is independent. Under the corporate governance guidelines adopted by the board, a director is not considered independent unless the board affirmatively determines that the director has no “material relationship” with Thomson Reuters. In determining the independence of directors, the board considers all relevant facts and circumstances. In March 2014, the board conducted its annual assessment of the independence of each of its current members and determined that 9 of the 13 directors (69%) serving on the board are independent. The board also determined that if the three new director nominees are elected, then 9 of the 13 directors (69%) proposed to be elected at the meeting will be independent. In determining independence, the board examined and relied on the applicable definitions of “independent” in the NYSE listing standards and Canadian Securities Administrators’ National Instrument 58-101. The board also reviewed the results of questionnaires completed by current directors and new director nominees.

None of Messrs. D. Thomson, Binet or P. Thomson is a member of Thomson Reuters executive management team. With its substantial equity investment in Thomson Reuters, Woodbridge considers that its interests as a shareholder are aligned with those of all other shareholders.

In determining the independence of directors, the board also considers that in the normal course of business, we provide services to, and receive services from, companies with which some of the independent directors are affiliated. Based on the specific facts and circumstances, the board determined in March 2014 that these relationships were immaterial.

Nominee Information

The following provides information regarding the 13 director nominees who are proposed to be elected at the meeting.

In the director nominee profiles on the following pages, “securities held” by a director nominee includes common shares over which a director exercised control or direction, and the number of restricted share units (RSUs), deferred share units (DSUs) and options held by, or credited to, each individual as of March 25, 2014. Information regarding common shares beneficially owned does not include shares that may be obtained through the exercise or vesting of options, RSUs or DSUs. Each director nominee provided us with information about how many common shares he or she beneficially owns.

The market value of DSUs is also based on the closing price of our common shares on the NYSE on that date. We have also included information about each director nominee’s ownership of Thomson Reuters common shares and DSUs as of March 25, 2014 as a multiple of their annual retainer. Additional information about director share ownership guidelines is provided later in this section.

Director Compensation

Our Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing the adequacy and form of directors’ compensation on an annual basis. In 2013, the Corporate Governance Committee recommended, and the board subsequently approved, an increase in certain elements of director compensation. The factors that led the Corporate Governance Committee to recommend this increase included:

· the size, scope and complexity of our organization;

· the time commitment required of directors to serve on the board and one or more board committees, as applicable (including board/committee meetings and travel to and from board/committee meetings and site visits);

· the experience and skills of our directors;

· compensation levels for boards of directors of other large comparable U.S. and Canada-based multinational public companies in order for amounts paid to our directors to be competitive to attract new candidates and to retain existing directors;

· an increasing trend in U.S. and Canadian public company director compensation programs to require a combination of mandatory and optional equity components to further align directors’ interests with shareholders; and

· our desire to have a flat fee structure.

In benchmarking director compensation, the Corporate Governance Committee evaluated publicly available data related to director compensation paid by U.S. public companies in the S&P 500 index and Canadian public companies in the S&P/TSX 60 index, as our company’s board is primarily comprised of directors from the U.S. and Canada. U.S. board compensation is generally higher than Canadian companies. 

Retainers / Mandatory Equity Component

In 2013, director compensation increased for the first time since the formation of Thomson Reuters in 2008. Effective as of May 1, 2013, annual non-management director retainers were increased from $150,000 to $200,000. Prior to May 2013, directors could select cash, common shares or DSUs (or a mix thereof) for their retainers and there was no mandatory equity component. In connection with the retainer increases, a mandatory equity component was added and $50,000 of annual director retainers is now payable in DSUs. Our non-management directors may elect to receive the remaining $150,000 of their $200,000 annual retainer in the form of DSUs, common shares or cash (or a mix thereof).

DSUs

DSUs granted to directors are bookkeeping entries credited to an account maintained for each eligible director. Each DSU has the same value as one common share, though DSUs do not have voting rights. If a director elects to receive DSUs, units representing the value of common shares are credited to the director’s account. DSUs accumulate additional units based on notional equivalents of dividends paid on our common shares. DSUs are only settled (in the form of common shares or cash, at the election of the director) following termination of the director’s board service.

Common Shares

If a director elects to receive common shares, the amount (net of withholding taxes) is used to buy shares in the open market. Payment is made in our common shares or cash (net of withholding taxes), based on the market value of the common shares on the date prior to the payment date.

Committee Fees

Committee chair fees were also increased as of May 2013, as reflected in the table below. Prior to May 2013, committee chairs could also select the type of payment for their committee retainers between cash, common shares and DSUs (or a mix thereof). Effective in May 2013, a mandatory equity component was added for committee chair retainers, which are now payable entirely in DSUs.

Lead Independent Director Retainer

In March 2013, the board created a new Lead Independent Director position. The Lead Independent Director annual retainer is $150,000 and is inclusive of the fee for chairing one committee. The Lead Independent Director also receives the same annual $200,000 retainer paid to non-management directors. Additional information about the Lead Independent Director is provided later in this section of the circular.

Components of Director Compensation

The table below sets forth the annual retainers that were payable to our directors in 2013. Directors do not receive separate attendance or meeting fees. Chairs of the Audit Committee and HR Committee currently receive additional fees given their increased responsibilities and workloads.

	January 2013 – April 2013	May 2013 - December 2013
	($)	($)
Non-management directors	150,000	200,000 ($50,000 of which is required to be paid in DSUs)
Committee chairs
Audit	20,000	30,000 (payable in DSUs)
Corporate Governance	10,000	Reflected in Lead Independent Director fee
HR	20,000	30,000 (payable in DSUs)
Chairman of the Board	600,000	600,000
Lead Independent Director	150,000 (payable in DSUs)	150,000 (payable in DSUs)

Our board had a Deputy Chairman position through May 2013. The annual retainer for that position was $300,000 in 2013.

Total Director Compensation

The table below reflects compensation earned by our directors in 2013. The fee amounts reflect cash compensation earned. The share-based awards include DSUs and common shares received in lieu of cash. Approximately 57% of 2013 director compensation was paid in DSUs and common shares.

As President and CEO of Thomson Reuters, Mr. Smith does not receive compensation for his service as a director. Information regarding Mr. Smith’s 2013 compensation is set forth in the “Executive Compensation” section of this circular.

Stock Option and RSU Grants

Our non-management directors are not eligible to receive stock option grants and no non-management director currently holds any options. None of our non-management directors currently hold RSUs. Options and RSUs held by Mr. Smith are described later in the circular.

In 2008, we made a special grant of RSUs to Mr. Beattie. All of these RSUs vested in February 2013. Upon vesting, each RSU entitled Mr. Beattie to receive one common share. The table below reflects the value of the award on the vesting date, based on the average of the high and low prices of our common shares on the NYSE on that date.

Share Ownership Guidelines

Directors are required to hold common shares and/or DSUs having a value equal to three times their annual retainer by the later of five years from the date of their initial appointment to the Thomson Reuters board and January 1, 2017.

Ownership of common shares and DSUs by our directors can be found in each director’s biography in this circular. David Thomson and Peter Thomson are affiliated with Woodbridge, the Thomson family investment company. As of March 25, 2014, Woodbridge beneficially owned approximately 56% of our common shares. For more information, see the “Principal Shareholder and Share Capital” section of this circular.

Mr. Smith is subject to separate ownership guidelines in his capacity as CEO of our company. For more information, see the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this circular.

Information about each director’s ownership of common shares and/or DSUs as of March 25, 2014 as a multiple of their annual retainer can be found in each director’s biography in this circular.

Pensions

Non-management directors do not receive any pension benefits from our company. Mr. Smith’s pension and retirement benefits are described in the “Executive Compensation – Pension and Other Retirement Benefits” section of this circular.

Service Contracts

We have not entered into service contracts with our non-management directors. Each director has signed an appointment letter that confirms his or her position on the board and any committees. Our agreement with Mr. Smith regarding termination benefits is described in the “Executive Compensation – Termination Benefits” section of this circular.

Liability Insurance

We provide our directors with liability insurance in connection with their service on the board.

Director Expenses

We reimburse directors for reasonable travel and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with their Thomson Reuters duties.

Corporate Governance

Our board is committed to high standards of corporate governance. We believe that sustainable value creation for all shareholders is fostered through a board that is informed and engaged and that functions independently of management.

Our shares are listed in Canada on the Toronto Stock Exchange and in the United States on the New York Stock Exchange. Our corporate governance practices are generally consistent with the best practice guidelines of the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the SEC. In addition, our corporate governance practices comply with most of the corporate governance listing standards of the NYSE, notwithstanding that we are exempt from most of those standards as a “foreign private issuer”.

Board Composition and Responsibilities

Board Size

The board currently consists of 13 individuals and functions independently of management. The board is currently comprised of 12 non-management directors and the CEO. Individual directors are proposed for election annually. We have proposed 13 directors to be nominated for election at the meeting, 10 of which are existing members of the board.

Governance Structure

Responsibility for our governance structure lies, in the first instance, with the Corporate Governance Committee, and more generally with the board. Board practices are set out in corporate governance guidelines, which the Corporate Governance Committee reviews annually, together with the committee charters. The corporate governance guidelines deal with issues such as the board’s duties and responsibilities, share ownership guidelines and conflicts of interest. The guidelines and committee charters are publicly available at www.thomsonreuters.com. In addition, a copy of the corporate governance guidelines has been filed on SEDAR and EDGAR and is incorporated by reference in this circular.

Key Responsibilities

The board’s principal responsibilities are strategic planning, risk identification and financial, human resources, legal and regulatory oversight. The table below highlights the board’s 2013 work plan.

Strategic Planning

Our board plays an important role in strategic planning and direction throughout the year.

In January, the board meets with management to review, discuss and approve the final version of our annual operating plan, which is prepared by our CEO, CFO and other senior executives. The plan typically addresses:

· Opportunities

· Risks

· Competitive position

· Business outlook

· Preliminary full-year financial results

· Financial projections for a five-year period

· Other key performance indicators

· Annual dividend recommendation

Throughout the year, the board and management discuss our progress against the plan.

The board also has a separate in-person meeting in July that focuses primarily on strategy matters. As part of this meeting, directors have an in-depth discussion about our company’s strategic plans with our CEO, CFO and other senior executives. Discussions typically cover topics such as technology, the current condition of our business segments, future growth potential of our businesses and the key market segments that we serve, and how we are seeking to increase shareholder value.  

While the January and July meetings focus on strategic planning, the board also discusses various strategic issues with management at other meetings during the year.

Risk Oversight

Our enterprise risk management (ERM) process is designed to enhance the identification and mitigation of risk throughout Thomson Reuters and assist the board and the Audit Committee with oversight responsibility for risk management. The ERM process is managed by our General Counsel.

The ERM process at our company includes:

· identifying the significant operational, strategic, reputational and other risks in each of our business units as well as for our corporate center;

· assessing which of these risks individually or together with other identified risks result in a significant risk to the enterprise; and

· developing and implementing action plans for the enterprise risks and reviewing them periodically at a corporate and board level.

On a regular basis, the board or one of its committees reviews and discusses identified risks and the steps that management is taking to manage and mitigate the risks. In February 2013, senior management presented an overview of its 2013 ERM plans and calendar to the Audit Committee. Management agreed with the Audit Committee at the time that each enterprise risk would be reviewed at the board or committee level during 2013, or in connection with broader agenda items in board meetings. A specific ERM update was provided to the board at its meeting in September 2013.  

For our business units and functional departments, ERM is an ongoing process under continuous management review. We involve our internal audit department in the review of certain identified risks, as appropriate or upon request. Mr. Smith’s executive committee undertakes a formal risk review annually.

Separate Chairman and CEO

The roles and responsibilities of the Chairman and the CEO of our company are separate to allow for more effective oversight and to hold management more accountable.

· As Chairman, David Thomson seeks to ensure that the board operates independently of senior management. The Chairman is responsible for establishing the agenda for board meetings, chairing board meetings, ensuring that the board and its committees have the necessary resources to support their work (in particular, accurate, timely and relevant information), and maintaining an effective relationship between the board and senior management.

· As CEO, Jim Smith is principally responsible for the management of the business and affairs of Thomson Reuters in accordance with the strategic plan and objectives approved by the board.

Lead Independent Director

Responsibilities of our Lead Independent Director include chairing meetings of the independent directors; in consultation with the Chairman and CEO, approving meeting agendas for the board; as requested, advising the CEO on the quality, quantity, appropriateness and timeliness of information sent by management to the board; and being available for consultation with the other independent directors as required. 

In March 2013, we appointed Ms. Fitt as Lead Independent Director. Ms. Fitt had been serving as Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee prior to the creation of the Lead Independent Director position. She remained Chair of that committee after her appointment as Lead Independent Director. In November 2013, Ms. Fitt informed the Corporate Governance Committee of her plans not to stand for re-election to the board at the 2014 annual meeting of shareholders. On the recommendation of the Corporate Governance Committee, the board appointed Mr. Opperman as Lead Independent Director and as Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee.

Position Descriptions

Position descriptions for the Chairman, the chair of each committee and the Lead Independent Director have been approved by the board and help ensure the independent operations of the board and its committees. These position descriptions are publicly available at www.thomsonreuters.com in the “Investor Relations” section.

Meetings with and without the CEO/Management

Our board begins each in-person meeting with an “in-camera” session with the CEO, but no other members of management. This is intended to give the CEO an opportunity to discuss his objectives for the day’s meeting, and for directors to express preliminary observations based on their prior review of meeting materials. This permits a more effective use of time in the board meeting. A similar session is typically held with the CEO at the end of the meeting, followed by a meeting of the board without the CEO or other members of management present. Each of the board’s committees also concludes its meetings “in-camera” with a period of time for discussion without the CEO or members of management present.

Meetings of Independent Directors

At least once each year, the board meets without the CEO and without the directors affiliated with Woodbridge. These meetings of the independent directors, which follow a regularly scheduled board meeting, are chaired by the Lead Independent Director. The Lead Independent Director develops the agenda for these meetings, although discussion has not been limited to it. The agenda generally addresses any issues that might be specific to a public corporation with a controlling shareholder. The Lead Independent Director reports to the Chairman and the CEO on the substance of these meetings to the extent that action is appropriate or required. One such meeting of the independent directors took place in March 2013 and was presided over by Ms. Fitt.

Secretary

Deirdre Stanley, Executive Vice President and General Counsel, is also Secretary to the board and each of its committees. Directors have access to the advice and services of the Secretary.

Access to Management and Professional Advisors

The board has access to members of management and professional advisors. The board and its committees may invite any member of senior management, employee, outside advisor or other person to attend or report at any of their meetings. The board and any of its committees are able to retain an outside independent professional advisor at any time at the expense of our company and have the authority to determine the advisor’s fees and other retention terms. Individual directors are able to retain an outside independent professional advisor at the expense of our company subject to notifying the Corporate Governance Committee in advance.

Thomson Reuters Management Proxy Circular

20

The HR Committee retains an independent consulting firm to advise it on compensation matters relating to senior management. The independent consulting firm also reviews executive compensation programs and provides guidance and analysis on plan design and market trends and practices. The HR Committee also utilizes and relies upon independent market survey data provided by an independent consulting firm regarding executive compensation for organizations of comparable size and scope with which Thomson Reuters is most likely to compete for executive talent. Additional information is provided in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this circular.

Delegation of Authority

To clarify the division of responsibility between the board and management, the board has adopted a delegation of authority policy. This policy delegates certain decision-making and operating authority to senior management and has been adopted by the board in order to enhance our internal controls and allow management appropriate flexibility to deal with certain matters without obtaining specific board approval. The board also delegates certain responsibilities to the Audit Committee, Corporate Governance Committee and HR Committee, and oversees the committees’ fulfillment of their responsibilities. The responsibilities of each committee are described in more detail below.

Controlled Company

Our company is a “controlled company” as a result of Woodbridge’s ownership.

The NYSE corporate governance listing standards require a listed company to have, among other things, solely independent directors on its compensation committee and nominating/corporate governance committee. A “controlled company” (as defined by the NYSE) is a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company and is exempt from these requirements.

Supplemental guidelines issued by the Canadian Coalition for Good Governance (CCGG) address controlled companies. A “controlled company” (as defined by CCGG) includes corporations with a controlling shareholder who controls a sufficient number of shares to be able to elect the board of directors or to direct the management or policies of the corporation.

While a majority of members of each of the Corporate Governance Committee and the HR Committee of our company are independent, the board believes it is appropriate for one or more directors affiliated with Woodbridge to serve on these committees and has approved our reliance on the NYSE’s controlled company exemption to do so. CCGG has stated that it believes it is appropriate for directors who are related to the controlling shareholder to sit on these committees to bring the knowledge and perspective of the controlling shareholder to executive compensation, appointments and board nominations.

No directors affiliated with Woodbridge serve on our Audit Committee, which is required to have solely independent directors.

Committees

The board operates with three committees, each of which has a charter. The charters are reviewed annually by the relevant committee and the Corporate Governance Committee. These charters and a committee chair position description are publicly available at www.thomsonreuters.com. The following table sets forth the membership of our three board committees as of March 25, 2014 and the expected composition of our committees as of May 22, 2014 if all of the director nominees are elected at the meeting.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee is responsible for assisting the board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities in relation to:

· the integrity of financial statements and other financial information relating to our company;

· risk management and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;

· the qualifications, independence and performance of the independent auditor (PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP);

· the adequacy and effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures;

· the effectiveness of the internal audit function; and

· any additional matters delegated to the Audit Committee by the board.

As is customary for a number of global multinational companies, the board of directors has delegated review and approval authority to the Audit Committee for our annual and quarterly earnings releases as well as for quarterly management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A) and related financial statements. The full board reviews and approves our annual MD&A and annual audited financial statements, as required by applicable law.

In 2013, the Audit Committee met with various members of our senior management and internal audit team and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. In addition, the Audit Committee met regularly in separate sessions with representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. In the course of fulfilling its mandate, the Audit Committee focused on several topics in 2013, which are reflected in the work plan below.

2013 Primary Audit Committee Activities

·  Review and discuss the company’s annual and quarterly consolidated financial statements and related MD&A;

·  Review other continuous disclosures, including our earnings press releases and annual report;

·  Receive periodic updates from our Corporate Compliance and Audit Department on the internal audit plan and process, internal control over financial reporting and fraud-related matters;

·  Receive periodic updates from senior management on topics such as tax, treasury and accounting;

·   Review and discuss the company’s enterprise risk management (ERM) process with the General Counsel and other members of senior management, including the steps and processes taken to identify, assess, monitor and mitigate risks that are viewed as more significant;

·  Review periodic/annual impairment testing;

·  Review the scope and plans for the audit of our company’s financial statements;

·  Review and approve fees to be paid to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for its services;

Thomson Reuters Management Proxy Circular

2013 Primary Audit Committee Activities

·  Discuss with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP:

·its independence from Thomson Reuters (and receiving disclosures from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in this regard),

·all critical accounting policies and practices used or to be used by Thomson Reuters,

·all alternative treatments of financial information within IFRS that have been discussed with management, ramifications of the use of such alternative treatments and the treatment preferred by the auditor, and

·all other matters required to be communicated under IFRS.

The following is a brief summary of the education and experience of each member of the Audit Committee (as the committee is expected to be constituted, should all of the director nominees be elected at the meeting) that we believe is relevant to the performance of his or her responsibilities, including any education or experience that has provided the member with an understanding of the accounting principles that we use to prepare our financial statements.

Annual Internal Control and Audited Financial Statement Review

We establish and maintain internal controls over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We have adopted the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission guidance for implementing our internal control framework as part of compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and applicable Canadian securities law.

In March 2014, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with management its assessment and report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, which was made using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Audit Committee also reviewed and discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP its review and report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee also recommended that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP be re-appointed as our independent auditor to serve until our next meeting of shareholders in 2015 and that our board submit this appointment to shareholders for approval at the 2014 annual meeting of shareholders.

Based upon the reports and discussions described in this report, and subject to the limitations on the role and responsibilities of the Audit Committee in its charter, the Audit Committee recommended that our board approve the filing of the audited consolidated financial statements, MD&A and annual report, and the inclusion of the audited consolidated financial statements in our annual report to shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Thomson Reuters Management Proxy Circular

23

The Corporate Compliance and Audit department prepares and oversees the overall plan for internal control over financial reporting. Corporate Compliance and Audit identifies certain entities and/or significant accounts to be within the scope of its internal controls activities. Based on templates completed related to in-scope activities, Corporate Compliance and Audit evaluates responses and develops an audit scope which is presented to the Audit Committee for its review and approval. During the second half of 2013, the Corporate Compliance and Audit department tested applicable controls in order to achieve compliance with the required year-end evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control system. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2013. Results of the evaluation were reviewed with the Audit Committee, on behalf of the board.

Pre-approval Policy

The Audit Committee has adopted a policy regarding its pre-approval of all audit and permissible non-audit services provided to our company by the independent auditor.

· The policy gives detailed guidance to management as to the specific types of services that have been pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

· The policy requires the Audit Committee’s specific pre-approval of all other permitted types of services that have not already been pre-approved.

· The Audit Committee periodically reviews a summary of services provided by the independent auditor in accordance with the pre-approval policy.

· The Audit Committee’s charter delegates to its Chair the authority to evaluate and approve engagements in the event that the need arises for approval between Audit Committee meetings. If the Chair approves any such engagements, he must report his approval decisions to the full Audit Committee at its next meeting. For the year ended December 31, 2013, none of the audit-related, tax or all other fees of Thomson Reuters described above made use of the de minimis exception to pre-approval provisions contained in Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(c) of SEC Regulation S-X and Section 2.4 of the Canadian Securities Administrators’ Multilateral Instrument 52-110 (Audit Committees).

Financial Disclosure Process

The Audit Committee meets to approve all financial reports prior to their release. Prior to the meeting, a draft is distributed to the members of the Audit Committee for review and comment. The CFO and the Chief Accounting Officer and a representative from the independent auditor meet with the Chair of the Audit Committee to preview the audit-related issues which will be discussed at the Audit Committee meeting. At the Audit Committee meeting, the Chief Accounting Officer discusses the financial statements and disclosure matters and the Audit Committee members are given an opportunity to raise any questions or comments. The independent auditor also participates in the meeting. All of our directors are also provided with a draft and an opportunity to comment before or during the Audit Committee meeting. When the Audit Committee is satisfied with the disclosure, it provides its approval and the material is released. For the annual report, a draft is then distributed to the members of the board in advance of a board meeting for their review and approval. At the board meeting, directors are given an opportunity to raise any questions or comments.

Whistleblower Policy

The Audit Committee has adopted procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by our company regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, auditing matters, and disclosure controls and procedures, as well as procedures for the confidential, anonymous submission of concerns by our employees regarding questionable accounting, internal accounting controls, auditing matters or disclosure controls and procedures. These procedures are set forth in the Thomson Reuters Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which is described later in this section under “Code of Business Conduct and Ethics”.

Financial Literacy

All members of the Audit Committee are financially literate in accordance with applicable Canadian and U.S. securities rules. Our Audit Committee currently does not include an individual who qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” (within the meaning of applicable SEC rules) or meets applicable tests for accounting or related financial management expertise within the meaning of NYSE listing standards. However, Mr. Jenkins (who is nominated for election at the meeting) will be considered an audit committee financial expert if elected to the board. We believe that the current members of the Audit Committee collectively have the requisite skills and experience to properly discharge their responsibilities.

Director Qualifications, Recruitment, Board Size and Appointments

The Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for assessing the skills and competencies of current directors, their anticipated tenure and the need for new directors. The Corporate Governance Committee recommends candidates for initial board membership and board members for re-nomination. Recommendations are based on character, integrity, judgment, skills and competencies, business experience, record of achievement and any other attributes that would enhance the board and overall management of the business and affairs of our company. We do not have a mandatory retirement age or tenure limit for our directors. We believe that individuals can continue to remain effective directors beyond a mandated retirement age or period of service. The Corporate Governance Committee retains a professional search firm to assist it in identifying and evaluating potential director candidates.

In March 2013, the Corporate Governance Committee commenced a process to identify additional candidates for the board as part of succession planning. The Corporate Governance Committee felt that ideal candidates should have experience and competencies that would complement existing members of the board. In particular, the Corporate Governance Committee sought to identify at least one candidate who could serve as an audit committee financial expert (as defined by applicable law). A global search firm was retained to frame and conduct a search for candidates. In addition, our current board members were made aware of the search and canvassed to make recommendations for possible candidates with the desired competencies.

· A search firm identified Ms. Bair. In evaluating Ms. Bair's profile, the Corporate Governance Committee put considerable weight on her extensive expertise in banking and finance as a result of her services as Chair of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). She also would bring extensive government and regulatory experience to our board from her service at the FDIC and prior service in senior positions at the NYSE, CFTC and the U.S. Department of the Treasury. In addition, the Corporate Governance Committee valued Ms. Bair's experience on the boards of directors of other NYSE-listed companies.

· A search firm and a member of the board both identified Mr. Daniels. In evaluating Mr. Daniels’ profile, the Corporate Governance Committee put considerable weight on his extensive global business experience with IBM, his sales, marketing and services expertise and his deep understanding of enterprise technology. In addition, the Corporate Governance Committee valued Mr. Daniels' experience on the boards of directors of other NYSE/NASDAQ-listed companies.

· A member of the board identified Mr. Jenkins. In evaluating Mr. Jenkins' profile, the Corporate Governance Committee put considerable weight on his extensive executive knowledge and extensive business strategy, operational and management experience in the software industry. In addition, the Corporate Governance Committee valued Mr. Jenkins’ senior leadership experience with OpenText Corporation, a Canada-based multinational TSX/NASDAQ-listed company.

Mr. Thomson (Chairman), Mr. Opperman (Lead Independent Director) and Mr. Smith (CEO) independently met with Ms. Bair and Messrs. Daniels and Jenkins in order to gauge their appropriateness for our board, and their interest in it. In addition to these meetings, a search firm developed a background profile of each new director candidate. The results of these meetings and research were brought to the Corporate Governance Committee, which reviewed them in the context of other potential candidates. After discussion, the Corporate Governance Committee recommended to our board that Ms. Bair and Messrs. Daniels and Jenkins be nominated for election to the board at the 2014 annual meeting of shareholders. The board accepted the Corporate Governance Committee's recommendation.

The board continues to be of the view that its optimal size for effective decision-making and committee work is 13 to 16 members.

Director Orientation and Continuing Education

All new directors are provided with an orientation upon election or appointment to the board, which includes:

· Induction materials describing our business, our corporate governance structure and related policies and information; and

· Meetings with the Chairman, Lead Independent Director, CEO, CFO and other executive officers. 

From time to time, new directors have opportunities to visit some of our major facilities and meet with the presidents of our business segments and operations management.

The board’s secure website (BoardLink, a product sold by Thomson Reuters), monthly management reports and other means of communication provide directors with information to ensure their knowledge and understanding of our business remain current.

Thomson Reuters Management Proxy Circular

26

Largely in connection with board meetings, members of senior management prepare memoranda and presentations on strategic and operating matters which are distributed to the directors. These board papers are often prepared in connection with matters that require director approval under our policies or applicable law and are also used to inform the directors about developments that senior management believe should be brought to the directors’ attention. The board also periodically receives reports on other non-operational matters, including corporate governance, taxation, pension and treasury matters.

To facilitate ongoing education, the directors are entitled to attend external continuing education opportunities at the expense of Thomson Reuters. The Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for confirming that procedures are in place and resources are made available to provide directors with appropriate continuing education opportunities. As part of our most recent board effectiveness review process, directors indicated they were pleased to continue on this basis.

Site Visits

In 2012, the Corporate Governance Committee initiated a new director continuing education/orientation program facilitating visits by small groups of directors to our sites. The visits were designed to:

· Enable directors to update themselves first hand on our key businesses, products and services;

· Provide an opportunity for directors to interact with key executives, high potential talent and customers; and

· Give a broader selection of current and future executives the opportunity to meet directors.

The majority of our directors were able to participate in at least one site visit in 2012 and 2013. Feedback on this program from directors and location hosts was positive and it will be continued to other sites in 2014. 

Locations visited in 2012 included Eagan, Minnesota; Dallas, Texas; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Buenos Aires, Argentina; and London. The table below provides information about board site visits conducted in 2013.

Board Effectiveness Review

The Corporate Governance Committee oversees an annual structured review of the effectiveness of the board and its committees. Director questionnaires address issues such as supervision of senior management, strategic planning, risk management, financial reporting, disclosure, governance and conduct of board and committee meetings. The following sets forth the review process:

From time to time, the Corporate Governance Committee also conducts an individual director review and assessment process, whereby each director meets with the Chairman of the Corporate Governance Committee to discuss his or her own contribution to the board, and the contributions of their colleagues. Follow-up meetings are subsequently held by the Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee with each director.

The Corporate Governance Committee believes that each director continues to be effective and that each director has demonstrated a commitment to his or her role on the board and its committees. Based on the Corporate Governance Committee’s recommendations, the board recommends that all of the director nominees be elected at the meeting to be held on May 22, 2014, as each of them continues to bring valuable skills and experience to the board and its committees.

HR Committee

The HR Committee is responsible for assisting the board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities in relation to:

· the compensation of the CEO and senior management;

· the selection and retention of senior management;

· planning for the succession of senior management;

· professional development for senior management;

· the management of pension and significant benefit plans for employees; and

· any additional matters delegated to the HR Committee by the board.

The HR Committee assists the board in setting objectives each year for the CEO. The HR Committee evaluates the performance of the CEO against these objectives at year end. The HR Committee reports to the full board on the objectives for the forthcoming year and the performance against objectives in the preceding year. The HR Committee also maintains a written position description for the CEO.

The following table provides an overview of the HR Committee’s work plan for 2013.

Succession Planning and Talent Management

The HR Committee oversees succession planning and talent management for our company. Twice per year, the HR Committee devotes significant time reviewing our practices and progress with the CEO and Chief People Officer. One session typically focuses on the performance of the senior leadership team and the other focuses on talent management activities, particularly succession plans and the pipeline for the most senior leadership roles. In addition to a formal annual review of succession plans, the HR Committee deepens its knowledge of potential successors through a systematic exposure to high potential individuals.

We seek to have talent management activities well embedded in Thomson Reuters. The leadership team of each business unit and function is expected to review its bench strength, pipeline and succession plans in light of its proposed business strategy and identify actions to develop potential successors and to reduce any gaps in the pipeline. This exercise is traditionally carried out at least annually at our company, in addition to two check-in meetings to review progress on development actions. The CEO and the Chief People Officer review succession and action plans for more senior leadership roles and they also identify organization-wide opportunities, challenges and risks. The CEO and Chief People Officer also review and approve the overall talent strategy for our company, including sponsoring key development programs and experiences to build a robust, global and diverse leadership bench strength. Our talent management program focuses not only on the most senior executives, but places increasing emphasis on identifying and developing high potential individuals who are not yet in senior leadership roles.

The HR Committee’s annual review includes an update on these wider-reaching and longer-term activities in addition to the focus on succession planning.

Director Attendance

The board meets regularly in order to discharge its duties effectively. Directors are expected to attend all meetings of the board including committee meetings, if applicable, and annual meetings of shareholders.

Mr. Beattie did not stand for re-election at our annual meeting of shareholders held in May 2013. In 2013, Mr. Beattie attended two of five board meetings, neither of two Corporate Governance Committee meetings and one of three HR Committee meetings. Mr. Martin also did not stand for re-election in May 2013. In 2013, Mr. Martin attended four of five board meetings and two of four Audit Committee meetings.

1Mr. Denning was recused from attending one meeting of the board.

2Mr. Opperman was elected to the Corporate Governance Committee in March 2013, after that committee’s initial meeting of the year.

Transactions Involving Directors or Officers

In the case of any potential or actual conflict of interest, each director or executive officer is required to inform the board. Unless otherwise expressly determined by the board or relevant committee of the board, a director or officer who has a conflict of interest in a matter before the board or such committee must not attend any part of a meeting during which the matter is discussed or participate in any vote on the matter and may be required to take other steps to avoid the conflict of interest. Significant related party transactions are considered by the Corporate Governance Committee or, where appropriate, a special committee of independent directors or the full board. For more information about related party transactions in the last two years, please see the management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A) section of our 2013 annual report.

Other/Interlocking Directorships

The Corporate Governance Committee monitors the outside boards that our directors sit on to determine if there are circumstances that would impact a director’s ability to exercise independent judgment and to ensure that a director has sufficient time to fulfill his or her commitments to Thomson Reuters. The board has adopted a policy that no more than two of our directors may serve together on the boards of other public companies without the consent of the Corporate Governance Committee. We do not have any directors who serve together on boards of other public companies.

Disclosure and Communications Controls and Procedures

We have adopted disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in reports and filings with Canadian and U.S. securities regulatory authorities and stock exchanges and other written and oral information that we publicly disclose is recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately and within the time periods specified by rules and regulations of the securities regulatory authorities. These disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that this information is accumulated and communicated to management (including the CEO and CFO), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Disclosure controls and procedures are discussed with the Audit Committee.

Thomson Reuters Management Proxy Circular

Certifications

As required by applicable Canadian and U.S. securities laws, our CEO and CFO provide certifications that they have reviewed our annual and quarterly reports, that the reports contain no untrue statements or omissions of material facts and that the reports fairly present our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, the CEO and CFO make certifications regarding our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. Our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2013.

Corporate Communications

On a day-to-day basis, inquiries or other communications from shareholders, analysts and the media to management are answered by our investor relations and media relations departments or referred to another appropriate person in our company.

Senior executives meet regularly with financial analysts and institutional investors, and our earnings conference calls are broadcast live via webcast and are accessible to interested shareholders, the media and members of the public. Presentations given by senior executives at investor conferences are promptly made public in the “Investor Relations” section of our website. Some of our non-management directors have attended our annual Investor Day meetings with analysts and major shareholders.

The Chairman and other directors (along with the CEO, CFO and other members of senior management) are available at our annual meeting to answer questions from shareholders.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (Code) applies to all employees, directors and officers, including our CEO, CFO and Controller. All employees, directors and officers are required to submit an acknowledgment that they have received and read a copy of the Code and understand their obligations to comply with the principles and policies outlined in it. In an effort to promote further a culture of ethical business conduct throughout Thomson Reuters, we have instituted a mandatory online training course related to the Code. The Corporate Governance Committee receives an annual report regarding the Code from the General Counsel.

Actual or potential Code violations can be self-reported to a manager, our Human Resources department or a Thomson Reuters lawyer. We also provide a confidential and anonymous Code hotline that can be used by phone or e-mail or through our intranet. We have engaged an independent third party to support our phone hotline on a 24/7 basis, with translation services available to support our employees around the world. Call managers initially forward reports to our Legal department. Reports are then assigned for follow-up and investigation depending on the issue reported, location and business involved. Matters are handled with appropriate discretion and our company has a strict non-retaliation policy for those raising issues in good faith.

In 2013 and through the date of this circular, no material violations by our directors or executive officers were reported for the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Also, no waivers under the Code were sought by or granted to any of our directors or executive officers.

A copy of our Code is available on our website, www.thomsonreuters.com, as well as on www.sedar.comand www.sec.gov.

ABOUT OUR INDEPENDENT AUDITOR

HIGHLIGHTS

·We are proposing to re-appoint PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (U.S.) as our independent auditor for another year until the 2015 annual meeting of shareholders.

The board unanimously recommends that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (U.S.) be appointed as the auditor of our company, to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders. It is also recommended that the board be authorized to fix the remuneration of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (U.S.).

The following table sets forth fees related to services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and its affiliates in 2013 and 2012. 2013 fees were lower than in 2012 primarily due to the fact that 2012 included significantly higher carve-out audit-related fees for dispositions.

(in millions of U.S. dollars)	2013		2012
Audit fees	$	22.8	$	20.9
Audit-related fees		1.4		11.1
Tax fees		6.6		8.0
All other fees		0.7		0.9
Total	$	31.5	$	40.9

The following are descriptions of fees for services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in 2013 and 2012.

Audit Fees

These audit fees were for professional services rendered for the audits of consolidated financial statements, reviews of interim financial statements included in periodic reports, audits related to internal control over financial reporting, statutory audits and services that generally only the independent auditor can reasonably provide, such as comfort letters and consents. These services included French translations of our financial statements, MD&A and financial information included in our interim and annual filings and prospectuses and other offering documents.

Audit-related Fees

These audit-related fees were for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the financial statements and are not reported under the “audit fees” category above. These services included subsidiary carve-out audits, transaction due diligence, SSAE 16 engagements, licensing of technical research material, audits of various employee benefit plans, agreed-upon procedures principally related to executive compensation reporting in the management proxy circular.

Tax Fees

Tax fees were for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning. These services included the preparation and review of corporate and expatriate tax returns, assistance with tax audits and transfer pricing matters, advisory services relating to federal, state, provincial and international tax compliance, customs and duties, and restructurings, mergers and acquisitions.

All Other Fees

Fees disclosed in the tables above under the item “all other fees” were for services other than the audit fees, audit-related fees and tax fees described above. These services include independent benchmarking services.

Pre-approval Policies and Procedures

Information regarding our policy regarding pre-approval of all audit and permissible non-audit services is set forth in the corporate governance disclosure included earlier in this circular.

ADVISORY RESOLUTION ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION (SAY ON PAY)

HIGHLIGHTS

·We are proposing a non-binding advisory “say on pay” resolution related to executive compensation.

·This is a recommended best practice of the Canadian Coalition for Good Governance (CCGG).

·We plan to continue holding this advisory vote on an annual basis.

Our overall philosophy regarding executive compensation is to pay for performance. We believe this drives our management team to achieve higher levels of results for the benefit of Thomson Reuters and our shareholders. In the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this circular, we explain our compensation principles, how we design our compensation program and why we pay each component of compensation.

As part of our dialogue with shareholders about our executive compensation programs, we have once again adopted a “say on pay” advisory resolution for this year’s meeting (as we have done since 2008). An identical resolution was approved at last year’s annual meeting of shareholders.

As this is an advisory resolution, the results will not be binding upon the board. However, the board will take voting results into account, as appropriate, when considering future compensation policies, procedures and decisions and in determining whether there is a need to significantly increase its engagement with shareholders on compensation-related matters.

We will disclose the results of the shareholder advisory resolution as part of our report on voting results for the meeting.

Shareholders with questions about our compensation programs are encouraged to contact our Investor Relations department by e-mail at investor.relations@thomsonreuters.com or by phone at 1.646.223.4000.

The board unanimously recommends that you vote FOR the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, on an advisory basis, and not to diminish the role and responsibilities of the board of directors, that the shareholders accept the approach to executive compensation as described in the 2014 management proxy circular.”

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

HIGHLIGHTS

·This section explains our compensation principles, how we design our compensation program, why we pay each component of compensation and what we paid to our “named executive officers” in 2013.

·Our “named executive officers” are our CEO (Jim Smith), CFO (Stephane Bello) and the three other most highly compensated executive officers as of December 31, 2013 (Andrew Rashbass – Chief Executive, Reuters; Deirdre Stanley – Executive Vice President, General Counsel & Secretary; and Shanker Ramamurthy – President, Global Growth & Operations). Mr. Ramamurthy terminated employment with Thomson Reuters after December 31, 2013.

·“Pay for performance” is a key part of our compensation philosophy for our named executive officers. Their compensation is primarily variable and performance-based, utilizing multiple and complementary financial measures that are aligned with our strategy and which drive shareholder value.

OVERVIEW OF 2013 COMPENSATION

Our executive compensation program is designed to be aligned with our strategic objectives and financial performance.   Entering 2013, our key financial objectives were to:

· Drive revenue growth, both organically and through tactical acquisitions;

· Aggressively focus on our cost structure by making improvements to our infrastructure that can deliver meaningful savings; and

· Simplify our systems and processes across the organization.

The HR Committee of our board structured our 2013 compensation program in a way that was consistent with these objectives. 2013 named executive officer compensation continued to be weighted heavily towards annual and long-term performance-based incentive awards, supplemented by fixed base salaries.

As a way to help control costs, 2013 base salaries for most of our executives were frozen, other than for a limited number of individuals to recognize enhanced responsibilities, reflect exceptional performance or serve as a retention tool.

Our annual incentive awards were established in the first quarter of 2013 with ambitious targets. We continued to weight these awards primarily on revenue and adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, and to a lesser extent on free cash flow. Measures based on driving top-line growth and improving profitability were connected directly to our first two strategic financial objectives for the year (described above). In February 2014, we reported our 2013 full-year results. While we met our externally-communicated financial outlook for the year, our performance was slightly below plan and, aligned with our pay for performance philosophy, resulted in an annual incentive cash payout of approximately 89% of target for our named executive officers who received Corporate-level awards.

Long-term incentive awards granted to our named executive officers have used traditional, best practice design elements such as a three-year performance period based on key corporate financial metrics. Performance restricted share units (PRSUs) granted in 2013 were weighted equally between adjusted earnings per share (EPS) and return on invested capital (ROIC). Adjusted EPS is commonly used by our shareholders to measure our long-term financial success and ROIC is used over the long term to measure our ability to create value for our shareholders through disciplined capital allocation.

In 2013, our named executive officers received new grants of PRSUs for the three-year period ending on December 31, 2015. Vesting will also be dependent on average adjusted EPS and ROIC performance. Named executive officers were also granted stock options in 2013, which also drive pay for performance. The value of those stock options is based on our company’s share price on the NYSE.

The PRSUs granted in 2011 had the same design and for the three-year period ended December 31, 2013, our average adjusted EPS and our average ROIC were both below plan performances. As a result, PRSUs vested at approximately 64% of target. This reduced the overall actual compensation of our named executive officers.

Time-based restricted share units (TRSUs) are not part of our company’s ongoing compensation program, but are used selectively by the HR Committee to recognize and retain executives who are viewed as critical to the future success of the company. During 2013, three named executive officers other than our CEO received TRSU grants (as discussed later in this section).

In the remaining sections of this compensation discussion and analysis, we describe how our key compensation principles drive our executive management team to achieve higher levels of results for the benefit of Thomson Reuters and our shareholders. As part of this discussion, we address the following key compensation principles:

· “Pay for performance” is the foundation of our executive compensation;

· Incentive performance goals are linked to key measures of our company’s performance and strategy;

· Our executives should build equity in our company to align their interests with our shareholders;

· We pay competitive compensation; and

· Our compensation programs take risk into account.

COMPONENTS OF 2013 COMPENSATION

A named executive officer’s total compensation typically comprises the following components. We describe each of these components in more detail later in this section.

Component	Description	Type	Measures	Form	Purpose
Base salary	Payments made throughout the year at an established rate	Fixed	Individual performance, role, responsibilities and experience	Cash	Provides predictable amount of fixed income as short-term compensation
Annual incentive award	Variable payment made in March after results for the previous year are audited, and dependent on company performance against objective financial targets.	Performance- based	Revenues (45%) Adjusted EBITDA before capital expenditures (45%) Free cash flow (10%)	Cash	Focuses executives on our financial goals and objectives for the year and aligns their interests with shareholder interests
Long-term incentive award	Grants of: ·  PRSUs that vest after completion of a three-year period, with vesting dependent on company performance against objective financial targets; and ·  Stock options subject to time vesting conditions	Performance- based	Adjusted EPS (50%) Return on invested capital (50%) Value tied to share price performance	Equity	Commits executives to delivering on our financial goals over the longer term, strongly links their pay to our share price, and supports retention objectives Helps retain critical talent and to recognize superior performance
Long-term equity award	Grants of time-based restricted share units (TRSUs), typically with three or five year vesting periods	Time-vested	Value tied to share price performance	Equity	Reward exceptional performance and for retention
Retirement and health and welfare-related benefits	Savings and deferred compensation plans, life and disability insurance, group medical and dental			Various	Most of these programs are broad-based employee programs, consistent with customary market practice and competitive factors
Perquisites and other personal benefits	Executive physicals and financial planning assistance			Various	Encourages maintenance of health and sound finances in a cost effective manner for our company, and minimizes distractions for executives

Our named executive officers are also subject to share ownership guidelines and a “clawback” policy. Additional information is provided later in this compensation discussion and analysis.

DESIGNING AND DETERMINING EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION: THE ROLE OF THE HR COMMITTEE, OUR PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDER AND INDEPENDENT ADVISORS

HR Committee

The HR Committee’s responsibilities include establishing, implementing and overseeing our compensation policies and programs, executive talent review and succession planning processes. One of the HR Committee’s key responsibilities is approving compensation arrangements for Mr. Smith and other members of his management executive committee. The board recognizes the importance of appointing knowledgeable and experienced individuals to the HR Committee who have the necessary background in executive compensation to fulfill the HR Committee’s obligations to the board and our shareholders. Each member of the HR Committee has direct experience as a senior leader that is relevant to his or her responsibilities in executive compensation. Additional information about the HR Committee is included earlier in this circular in our discussion of the board and corporate governance.

Our Chief People Officer and other members of the Human Resources department are responsible for overseeing the day-to-day design and administration of our various compensation and benefits policies and plans, including base salaries, annual and long-term incentives, retirement savings, health and welfare. The CEO, Chief People Officer and other senior executives in the Human Resources department meet regularly with the HR Committee.

In March 2013, Mr. Smith and our Chief People Officer made recommendations to the HR Committee regarding the proposed 2013 compensation arrangements for members of management’s executive committee (other than Mr. Smith). Management also provided the HR Committee with its recommendations for structuring 2013 annual and long-term incentive awards, which, among other things, included guiding principles, financial performance metrics, suggested weightings for each metric and threshold/target/maximum performance percentages for each metric.Mr. Smith is not present during HR Committee discussions regarding his own compensation arrangements.

As part of its analysis and decision-making process, the HR Committee received:

· A summary of Mr. Smith’s performance assessment of each member of his executive committee and a self-assessment of his own performance

· Executive pay comparisons and tally sheets so the HR Committee could assess proposed and historical compensation arrangements between individuals and against applicable market data

o This information included base salary, annual incentive award (target dollar amount and target as a percentage of salary), long-term incentive award (target dollar amount and target as a percentage of salary) and target total compensation for each individual

o The information also indicated the percentage of compensation mix for each individual between fixed and variable, and annual versus long-term incentive awards

o Additional information about competitive compensation considerations and the comparator group was also provided to the HR Committee and a summary is provided later in this section

· Input from its outside independent compensation advisor (who is discussed in more detail below)

Using its own judgment, the HR Committee approved compensation arrangements for Mr. Smith and each other executive committee member.

After the end of the year, the HR Committee reviewed the company’s performance relative to pre-established financial goals and made decisions regarding annual and long-term incentive award payouts for performance periods ended December 31, 2013. Additional information about each named executive officer’s individual 2013 compensation arrangement and individual performance during the year is provided later in this section.

Our Principal Shareholder

We recognize that executive compensation is a key area of interest for shareholders. Woodbridge, our principal shareholder, actively monitors this aspect of our governance given its importance to the achievement of our financial performance goals and long-term success. With its substantial equity investment in Thomson Reuters, Woodbridge considers that its interests as a shareholder are aligned with those of all other shareholders. All of the HR Committee’s members are independent directors, except Mr. Binet who is not considered to be independent under applicable rules because of his affiliation with Woodbridge. Mr. Binet is not a member of the Thomson Reuters executive management team. Mr. Binet is the President of Woodbridge.

Independent Advisors

The HR Committee has retained an outside consulting firm, Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc., to serve as an independent advisor on matters relating to executive compensation since 1998. Representatives of FW Cook generally attend HR Committee meetings, including meeting in-camera with the committee (when no members of management are present) and have discussions with the Chair and other members of the HR Committee from time to time outside of regularly scheduled meetings.

As part of its ongoing services to the HR Committee, FW Cook assists in evaluating the competitive positioning of senior executive compensation levels and provides guidance and analysis on plan design and market trends and practices to ensure that our program provides executives with competitive compensation opportunities, links compensation to performance and value creation, is efficient from accounting, tax and cash flow perspectives, and is supportive of emerging best practice corporate governance principles.

FW Cook does not provide any services to Thomson Reuters other than those provided directly to the HR Committee. Any use of FW Cook by Thomson Reuters management would require the HR Committee’s prior approval. In 2013 and 2012, we paid FW Cook the following fees:

	2013		2012		Percentage of total fees
Executive compensation-related fees	$	147,649	$	115,490		100	%
All other fees	$	–	$	–		–
Total annual fees	$	147,649	$	115,490		100	%

In 2013 and 2012, the Corporate Human Resources department also engaged Pay Governance LLC and paid that firm approximately $181,000 and $320,000, respectively, for executive compensation consulting services, including competitive compensation analyses and advice on various other matters. 

The HR Committee believes that it is important to receive objective recommendations and input from its outside compensation advisor. SEC and NYSE rules that were adopted under the Dodd-Frank Act require the compensation committee of U.S. public companies to consider six independence-related factors when selecting their compensation advisor and determining whether certain conflicts of interest disclosures must be made. Although foreign private issuers such as Thomson Reuters are exempt from these rules, the HR Committee considered them in March 2014 in relation to FW Cook. The six factors considered by the HR Committee were:

(1)The provision of other services to Thomson Reuters by the advisor;

(2)The amount of fees received from Thomson Reuters by the advisor as a percentage of the total revenue of the advisor;

(3)The policies and procedures of the firm that are designed to prevent conflicts of interest;

(4)Any business or personal relationship of the advisor with a member of the HR Committee;

OUR KEY COMPENSATION PRINCIPLES

“Pay for performance” is the foundation of our executive compensation

We believe that tying a significant component of pay to our company’s achievement of specific financial performance goals motivates our executives to achieve exceptional performance and focus on the goals and objectives that are of the most value to Thomson Reuters.

As shown in the charts below, approximately 82% of Mr. Smith’s 2013 target compensation was variable, which included approximately 45% awarded as long-term incentive grants in the form of performance restricted share units (PRSUs) and stock options. On average, approximately 72% of the other named executive officers’ 2013 target compensation was variable, which included approximately 40% awarded as long-term incentive grants in the form of PRSUs and stock options. As TRSU grants are not part of a named executive officer’s typical annual compensation, they have not been reflected in the charts below for Messrs. Bello and Rashbass and Ms. Stanley.

As part of its review of executive compensation, the HR Committee reviews targeted values for each component of compensation for each named executive officer. In determining the mix and relative weighting of cash (base salary and annual incentive awards) versus equity-based incentives, the HR Committee considers the appropriate proportion of compensation that should be variable based on the executive’s ability to affect and influence our annual and long-term results and advance the interests of shareholders as well as the compensation mix for similar positions at comparable companies. In general, the proportion of total pay delivered through variable short-term and long-term performance-based compensation increases directly with an executive’s level of operational/financial responsibility.

The HR Committee believes this mix and weighting aligns the interests of executives with those of shareholders, provides significant performance incentives and assists in keeping us competitive in the market for high-quality executives.

Incentive performance goals are linked to key measures of our company’s performance and strategy

Annual incentives

The HR Committee sets performance goals that focus on superior performance taking into account current market conditions. The financial performance goals set by the HR Committee reflect our published business outlook, operating plan and long-term strategy.

In the fourth quarter of 2012, senior executives from our businesses met with our CEO, CFO and other Corporate executives to discuss the 2013 operating plan, including specific objectives and targets for the plan. In developing our operating plan, management considered various factors related to our operations, products/services, competition, and economic and market conditions in the countries where we operate. Our board of directors then met with senior management in the first quarter of 2013 to review, discuss and approve the final version of the plan. The HR Committee subsequently set minimum (threshold), target and maximum levels for each of the performance criteria for financial metrics used in our 2013 annual and long-term incentive awards.

In general, the HR Committee sets targets so that the relative difficulty of achieving them is consistent from year to year. The HR Committee also reviews past performance against similar targets to assess the effectiveness of targets. Target levels are intended to be ambitious, but achievable. As an example, our Corporate-level annual incentive awards for 2013, 2012 and 2011 paid out at approximately 89%, 93% and 82% of the target level, respectively.

For 2013, the performance goals for our annual cash incentive awards were based on growth in revenues, adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures and free cash flow.

Long-term incentives

An executive’s long-term incentive award opportunity is expressed as a percentage of base salary, and an executive’s percentage may be modified up or down for a particular year based on future potential and past performance. In addition, our long-term incentive awards are aligned with key drivers of total shareholder return. In 2013, 50% of the long-term incentive awards that we granted to our CEO and other named executive officers included PRSUs. PRSUs granted in 2013 to our named executive officers will vest in March 2016 only if our adjusted earnings per share (EPS) growth and return on invested capital (ROIC) performance exceeds threshold levels over the three-year performance period ending December 31, 2015. Our PRSUs for the three-year performance periods ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 paid out at approximately 64%, 134% and 83% of the target level, respectively.

Long-term incentive awards granted to our named executive officers in 2013 also included stock options (50%). The value of PRSUs and stock options is dependent on our company’s share price.

Discretionary adjustment authority

For both annual and long-term incentive awards, the HR Committee is authorized to make discretionary adjustments to deal with extraordinary, non-recurring or unanticipated business conditions that materially affected our results (positively and negatively), the fairness of the performance targets, or the impact of external changes which have unduly influenced our ability to meet the targets. In recent years, adjustments have related to reorganization costs, changes in accounting practices, various acquisitions and dispositions, integration program costs related to our Reuters acquisition and litigation/legal settlements. Results are also adjusted to reflect foreign currency exchange rates used to prepare our annual operating plan.

Non-IFRS financial measures

All of the financial metrics that we used in 2013 for our annual and long-term incentive awards are non-IFRS financial measures. Later in this section, we discuss our annual and long-term incentive awards in more detail, and we explain why we use these metrics as part of our performance goals. Please also see the “Additional Information – Non-IFRS Financial Measures” section of this circular for more information about our non-IFRS financial measures.

Our executives should build equity in our company to align their interests with our shareholders

Our long-term incentive awards are all equity-based and, together with our share ownership guidelines, align the interests of our executives with those of our shareholders and enable our executives to share in our long-term growth and success. Executives are aligned with shareholders because this part of their compensation is tied directly to the long-term performance of the price of our shares.

PRSUs and stock options are designed to reward executives for increases in shareholder value and thereby foster strong alignment between management and shareholders. They also support important management retention objectives as a result of the vesting requirements, which are over a period of years. From time to time, we also grant TRSUs on a highly selective basis to high-performing executives who are critical to retain and/or in recognition of high potential, superior performance and contributions to the company. TRSUs do not have performance conditions and typically vest on a three or five-year basis (depending on the grant).

Through our share ownership guidelines, Mr. Smith and the other members of his Executive Committee are encouraged to acquire and maintain an equity interest in Thomson Reuters with a value equal to a multiple of their base salary. Until the guideline is met, Executive Committee members must retain a specified percentage of the shares that they acquire (after applicable tax withholdings) through option exercises and the vesting of PRSUs and TRSUs. Unvested TRSUs, PRSUs and stock options do not count toward the guidelines.

The following table shows the share ownership guidelines for certain of our named executive officers as well as their actual share ownership. All share values and the named executive officers' ownership are as of March 25, 2014. In the first quarter of 2014, the HR Committee increased Mr. Smith’s minimum share ownership base salary multiple from 5x to 6x. Mr. Bello became subject to share ownership guidelines in January 2012 and Mr. Rashbass joined our company in July 2013. Mr. Ramamurthy‘s share ownership is not provided below as he terminated employment with Thomson Reuters after December 31, 2013.

	Minimum share ownership					Actual share ownership

We pay competitive compensation

To ensure that our compensation programs are competitive, the HR Committee utilizes independent market surveys as well as a proxy analysis to obtain a general understanding of competitive pay for positions similar to our executives. However, this information is for general reference only. The most critical factors in determining pay for our executives are their experience and skill set, their performance for the applicable period and their potential performance for future periods. The HR Committee uses benchmarks to set individual components or overall executive compensation, and performs a comparison of the compensation of our executives to that of the peer set, on a component basis and in total, to compute the difference between our pay and that of the peer set. However, our annual and long term incentive awards are not based on our company’s performance relative to this peer group of companies, a number of which have similar business models, but many of which are not our direct business competitors.

In addition, the HR Committee uses compensation data about other companies as a reference point on which - either wholly or in part - to base, justify or provide a framework for our compensation decisions. The HR Committee also reviews and considers customized third party surveys for the more general purpose of obtaining an understanding of current compensation practices.

In carefully constructing our peer group, the HR Committee does not use a mechanical, formula-driven process that is limited to identifying other Canadian companies with a common Global Industry Classification System (GICS) code and only utilizing revenues and market capitalization as comparative factors. We believe that an analysis limited to these factors without regard to industry in particular would not provide a meaningful or relevant comparison of financial performance or compensation benchmarking.

Although Thomson Reuters is a Canadian company, Mr. Smith and our other named executive officers are all based in the United States or United Kingdom. The group of companies that we currently use for informational purposes in the United States largely represents a mix of other information development and delivery companies and professional service providers with which we compete for business, talent and investors. For United Kingdom comparative purposes, we evaluate companies in the FTSE 100 index generally. For similar reasons stated above, we do not include any other Canadian companies in the group reviewed by the HR Committee.

The companies that the HR Committee currently reviews as part of this process are publicly traded and have similar business models or strategies which are focused on information development and electronic delivery. Although we believe our company is somewhat unique in terms of its business operations serving the Financial & Risk, Legal, Tax & Accounting and Intellectual Property & Science industries, a number of these companies are considered by analysts and shareholders to be our closest public company comparables. Similar to Thomson Reuters, many of these other companies also have significant global operations. Our company’s revenues are about the median of the companies in the group.

The companies in the group currently consist of:

Accenture	Omnicom
Automatic Data Processing	Pearson
Cablevision	Reed Elsevier
Computer Sciences	SAIC
DIRECTV Group	SAP
eBay	Time Warner
Gannett	Time Warner Cable
Interpublic Group	Wolters Kluwer
McGraw-Hill Financial
News Corporation

Following McGraw-Hill’s split into two separate companies, we retained only McGraw-Hill Financial in our comparator group. Similarly, following News Corporation’s split into two separate companies, we did not continue to reflect Twentieth Century Fox in our comparator group.

Our compensation programs take risk into account and do not encourage unnecessary or excessive risk taking

We have designed our compensation programs to provide an appropriate balance of risk and reward in relation to our company’s overall business strategy. We believe that our compensation programs do not incentivize our executives to take unnecessary or excessive risks because:

· Most of an executive’s compensation is comprised of longer-term performance opportunities with less emphasis on shorter-term performance opportunities. In 2013, we decided to de-emphasize stock options and only grant them to a very small number of executives. Most of our executives (outside of the executive committee) who received long-term incentive awards in 2013 only received PRSUs;

Thomson Reuters Management Proxy Circular

41

· The base salary component of each executive’s compensation is fixed and therefore does not encourage risk taking;

· Our HR Committee annually reviews and determines performance criteria for financial metrics used in our incentive awards, including threshold, target and maximum amounts, to ensure that they are still relevant and applicable for our business;

· Our incentive awards utilize a number of different financial performance measures and do not rely on a single metric; 

· Our annual and long-term incentive awards have caps for the maximum potential payouts;

· Our HR Committee has discretionary authority to make fairness-related and other adjustments to performance award opportunities that it may deem appropriate;

· We have share ownership guidelines which further tie executives’ interests to those of our shareholders over the long-term; and

· We have a recoupment (or “clawback”) policy that permits us to seek reimbursement from our named executive officers in certain circumstances. Our clawback policy provides that the board, at the recommendation of the HR Committee, has the right to seek reimbursement of part of the annual or long-term incentive compensation awarded to an executive officer (which includes all of our named executive officers) if in the board’s view, the amount of the compensation was calculated based on the achievement or performance of financial results that were subject to a material restatement (other than a restatement due to, or to comply with, changes in applicable accounting principles or related to an acquisition or disposition). Reimbursement could be sought for any excess amount of compensation that relates to such a material restatement that occurred within 24 months of payment of the compensation, and the executive officer from whom reimbursement is sought would need to have engaged in fraud that caused the material restatement.

For more information about risks that we believe are material to our company, please see the “Risk Factors” section of our 2013 annual report, which is available on our website at www.thomsonreuters.com, as well as on www.sedar.comand www.sec.gov.

2013 COMPENSATION

Base Salary

Base salary is typically determined annually by reference to an executive’s individual performance and experience and our company’s financial performance, as well as competitive considerations, such as salaries prevailing in the relevant market. Base salaries are also evaluated in connection with promotions and other changes in job responsibilities.

The HR Committee establishes Mr. Smith’s base salary and also considers any increases to the base salaries of our other named executive officers based on Mr. Smith’s recommendations for each individual. In addition to the considerations described above, the HR Committee also takes into account any applicable merit increase guidelines established for our employees. 

2013 base salaries for our named executive officers were unchanged, except for Ms. Stanley’s.

Annual Incentive Awards

We provide an annual, cash-based incentive award opportunity to each of our named executive officers which is based on our company’s actual financial performance compared to our annual operating plan for the year.

Each named executive officer’s annual incentive award has a target that is expressed as a percentage of base salary. In setting target percentages, the HR Committee considers factors such as an executive’s position and responsibilities as well as competitive considerations.

For 2013 annual incentive awards, potential payouts ranged from 0% to 200% of the target award depending on our financial performance against the goals set by the HR Committee at the beginning of the year.

The performance goals for 2013 annual incentive awards were based on revenues, adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures and free cash flow.

· Revenues– We use revenues because they are commonly used to measure growth of our business.

· Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures (cash OI)– We use adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures (referred to internally as “cash OI”) because it provides a basis for evaluating the operating profitability and capital intensity of our business in a single measure. This measure captures investments regardless of whether they are expensed or capitalized.

Thomson Reuters Management Proxy Circular

42

· Free cash flow – We use free cash flow as a measure of our operating performance because it represents cash available to repay debt, pay common share dividends and fund share repurchases and new acquisitions. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities and other investing activities less capital expenditures and dividends paid on our preference shares. While annual incentive awards based on our consolidated performance include interest and taxes, awards based on segment performance exclude interest and taxes from the definition of free cash flow.

These goals were approved by the HR Committee during the first quarter of 2013. Awards were weighted as follows:

Financial metric	Annual incentive percentage weighting
Revenues		45	%
Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures (cash OI)		45	%
Free cash flow		10	%

In February 2014, the HR Committee determined the extent to which our 2013 annual performance targets were met by comparing our financial results to our performance goals. 2013 actual results were evaluated using foreign currency exchange rates that were used to prepare our 2013 annual operating plan.

The following table sets forth information regarding our 2013 target and actual performance for each financial metric reflected in our Corporate-level annual incentive awards, which had a payout of approximately 89% of target. These results are not directly comparable to similar financial measures that we disclose in our 2013 annual report.

Performance Metric (in billions of dollars)		Target performance		Actual performance
Revenues	$	12.77	$	12.66
Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures	$	2.33	$	2.36
Free cash flow	$	1.73	$	1.69

Long-term Incentive Awards

We provide a long-term incentive award to each of our named executive officers that is equity and performance-based. Each named executive officer’s long-term incentive award has a target that is expressed as a percentage of base salary. In setting target percentages, the HR Committee considers factors such as an executive’s position and responsibilities as well as competitive considerations. The HR Committee may decide to increase or decrease an executive officer’s target from year to year.

In 2013, we divided long-term incentive awards for Mr. Smith and our other named executive officers between 50% PRSUs and 50% stock options. This blend was intended to create balance in the overall long-term incentive program by ensuring that the program is financially efficient to our company and strongly supportive of important strategic and human resource objectives over the long term. While some lower level executives received stock options (in addition to PRSUs) as part of their long-term incentive awards in 2013, most of these executives only received PRSUs.

In determining the size of PRSU and stock option grants, the HR Committee initially establishes a total target compensation amount for each named executive officer, along with the percentage of this amount to be reflected through long-term incentive awards. The HR Committee then determines the number of PRSUs and stock options to be granted to each named executive officer. In determining long-term incentive grants, the HR Committee generally does not take into account the amount of previous allocations.

PRSUs

Because the payout for PRSUs is tied to operational results over a long-term period, these awards create a strong “line of sight” between controllable performance and realized compensation, reinforce the importance of achieving specific multi-year financial results and mitigate the impact of stock price volatility on the retention power of the overall program. Costs associated with PRSUs are variable and are incurred only to the extent that the underlying performance goals are achieved. PRSUs thereby ensure a financially efficient outcome to our company by tying expense recognition to the achievement of specific financial goals.

Thomson Reuters Management Proxy Circular

43

The two financial metrics used for PRSU awards granted in 2013 to our named executive officers were adjusted EPS and ROIC.

· Adjusted EPS – We use adjusted EPS because it is a primary driver of our long-term financial success by measuring growth in profitability on a per share basis. It is also a measure commonly used by shareholders to measure our success. Adjusted EPS reflects earnings attributable to common shareholders on a per share basis excluding the pre-tax impacts of amortization of other identifiable intangible assets. We further adjust these measures for the post-tax impacts of fair value adjustments, other operating gains and losses, certain impairment charges, the results of businesses that have been or are expected to be exited through sale or closure that did not qualify for discontinued operations classification, other net finance costs or income, our share of post-tax earnings or losses in equity method investments, discontinued operations and other items affecting comparability. We also deduct dividends declared on preference shares and amortization of the tax charges associated with the consolidation of ownership and management of technology and content assets.

· ROIC- We use ROIC as one of the measures to assess, over the long term, our ability to create value for our shareholders. Our goal is to increase this return over the long term by using our capital to invest in areas with high returns and realizing operating efficiencies to further enhance our profitability. We express ROIC as a percentage of post-tax adjusted operating profit to average adjusted invested capital. Adjusted operating profit excludes certain non-controllable and non-operating items. Invested capital represents our net operating assets that contribute to or arise from our post-tax adjusted operating profits. See Appendix D to our 2013 management’s discussion and analysis for the full calculation.

For 2013 PRSU grants to our named executive officers, we assigned the following weightings to the financial performance goals:

Financial metric	PRSU percentage weighting
Adjusted EPS		50	%
ROIC		50	%

The number of PRSUs granted to each executive was based on our closing share price on the NYSE on the business day before the grant.

Between 0% and 200% of the initial number of PRSUs granted in 2013 will vest in 2016 after the end of the three-year performance period (January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2015), depending on the achievement of the performance goals.

PRSUs also accumulate additional units based on notional equivalents of dividends paid on our common shares. The accumulated dividends are paid on PRSUs that vest when the underlying shares are distributed to executives.

After the end of the year, the HR Committee determines the extent to which our PRSU performance targets were met by comparing our financial results to our performance goals. Our performance for the three year period ended December 31, 2013 was determined to be approximately 64% of the target. Our PRSUs reinforce our pay for performance philosophy and align with the interests of our shareholders.

The following table sets forth information regarding our 2013 target and actual performance for each financial metric reflected in our long-term incentive awards for the three-year performance period ended December 31, 2013. Adjusted EPS and ROIC reflect an average performance for the three-year period. These results are not directly comparable to similar financial measures that we disclose in our 2013 annual report.

Performance Metric	Target performance			Actual performance
Adjusted EPS growth	$	2.51		$	2.21
ROIC performance		7.80	%		7.30	%

Stock options

All options granted in 2013 vest 25% per year over four years. The exercise prices for options granted were based on the fair market value of our common shares on the NYSE on the grant date. Fair market value is considered to be the closing price of the common shares on the day before the grant. The expiration date for options granted in 2013 is 10 years from the grant date. Options expire at the later of the expiration date or, if that date occurs during a blackout period or other period during which an insider is prohibited from trading in our securities by our insider trading policy, 10 business days after the period ends, subject to certain exceptions. Other than their alignment to our company’s share price, options do not contain additional performance goals.

In determining the number of stock options to be granted to each named executive officer, the HR Committee initially determines a target economic value for the total award. For options granted in 2013, the HR Committee calculated the grant date fair values using common share prices and a Black-Scholes valuation (as described in more detail in note 4 to the Summary Compensation Table contained in this circular). The HR Committee uses a Black-Scholes value in order to maintain year-to-year consistency in determining the number of stock options to be granted. By using this value, the number of options is determined primarily by our company’s financial performance as opposed to changes in estimated option values.

TRSUs

TRSUs vest over a specified period of years. While TRSUs are not subject to performance conditions, we believe they are effective retention tools as their value is often seen as more tangible by recipients and they require longer-time service to be earned. The value of TRSUs is directly aligned with our share price and is consistent with our philosophy of paying competitive compensation.

2013 NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION AND KEY ACCOMPLISHMENTS

The following section provides information about each individual named executive officer’s 2013 performance and compensation. The tables in this section help show how we pay for performance. In the tables below, long-term incentive award performance is reflected at target since these awards will vest in the future.

Jim Smith has been President & Chief Executive Officer since January 2012. Mr. Smith was Chief Operating Officer of Thomson Reuters from September 2011 to December 2011 and Chief Executive Officer of Thomson Reuters Professional division from April 2008 to September 2011. Prior to the acquisition of Reuters Group PLC (Reuters) by The Thomson Corporation (Thomson) in April 2008, he served as Chief Operating Officer of Thomson and as President and Chief Executive Officer of Thomson Learning’s Academic and Reference Group. Mr. Smith joined the Thomson Newspaper Group in 1987. He held several staff and operating positions, culminating in his role as head of operations for Thomson Newspapers in the U.S. With the sale of the Thomson Newspaper Group in 2000, he joined Thomson in 2001 as Executive Vice President. He began his career as a journalist and held several editorial and general management positions prior to joining Thomson.

2013 performance

· The company met its externally-communicated 2013 Outlook in a challenging economic environment in our two largest markets – legal and financial. In addition, our share price appreciated significantly during 2013. Our 2013 non-IFRS performance below reflects the basis of presentation for our Outlook and therefore excludes the impact of fourth-quarter charges and a pension contribution, as discussed in the MD&A section of our 2013 annual report.

Financial Measure	2013 Outlook	2013 Performance
Revenues from ongoing businesses	Grow low single digits (before currency)	2%	ü
Adjusted EBITDA margin	Between 26% and 27%	26.5%	ü
Underlying operating profit margin	Between 16.5% and 17.5%	17.2%	ü
Free cash flow	Between $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion	$1.7 billion	ü

· Mr. Smith helped design and launch a new transformation program aimed at (i) accelerating a return to a mid-single digit organic revenue growth rate; (ii) taking greater advantage of our scale; and (iii) unleashing our talent through a more focused strategic workforce planning approach. As part of these efforts, Mr. Smith is leading a process of transforming Thomson Reuters from a portfolio of businesses into an enterprise model.

· In 2013, under Mr. Smith’s leadership, our business units made significant progress on a number of fronts. We improved our position with customers, launched new products, continued to reduce operating expenses and lowered our financing costs.

o Financial & Risk continued its turnaround and improved its execution capabilities across product development, platform consolidation, back-office systems integration and product deployment. The business successfully ended the year with approximately 122,000 installed Eikon terminals (nearly triple the number at the end of 2012). Financial & Risk shut down four legacy platforms, including Bridge. Financial & Risk’s net sales performance, while still negative for the full year, improved from 2012. Financial & Risk also improved customer satisfaction metrics.

o Legalcontinued its evolution to become more of a solutions business and continues to help law firms improve productivity, manage their businesses more efficiently and grow more quickly. Legal acquired Practical Law, which strengthened our position in the legal market segment and has greatly increased our efforts to transform our global legal research offering into a comprehensive “know how” solution.

o Tax & Accounting had strong performance in 2013 and grew revenues 9% (5% organically). Tax & Accounting’s global market segments continue to expand.

o Intellectual Property & Science also had a strong performance in 2013 and grew revenues 11% (4% organically), driven by the launch of the unified Cortellis platform in Life Sciences and by the MarkMonitor acquisition in IP Solutions.

Overall, our “growth” businesses, which represented just over 50% of our total revenues in 2013, grew 9% in the aggregate.

Base salary: Mr. Smith’s salary was unchanged in 2013 compared to 2012, as base salaries for most of our executives were frozen.

Annual incentive award: Mr. Smith was granted a 2013 Corporate-level award based on our company’s consolidated performance. This award had an actual payout of approximately 89% of target.

Long-term incentive awards: Mr. Smith’s 2013 award grant was split between 50% PRSUs and 50% stock options. PRSUs granted in 2013 have a three-year performance period and will fully vest in March 2016. Stock options granted in 2013 will vest 25% each year over a four-year period. In addition, based on our company’s performance for the three-year period ended December 31, 2013, PRSUs that Mr. Smith received in 2011 vested in March 2014 at approximately 64% of target, which resulted in lower realized compensation than originally intended.

Mr. Smith’s total direct compensation for 2013 was 4% below his target based on the performance of his 2013 annual incentive award.

Stephane Bellohas been Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer since January 2012. Mr. Bello was Chief Financial Officer of Thomson Reuters Professional division from April 2008 to December 2011. Mr. Bello joined Thomson in 2001 and was Senior Vice President and Treasurer until April 2008. Prior to joining Thomson, Mr. Bello held several positions at General Motors in its treasury division, including regional Treasurer of General Motors Europe and Assistant Treasurer of General Motors in New York.

2013 performance

· Mr. Bello established a more focused company-wide process for capital allocation and kept overall capital expenditures flat while re-directing an appropriate amount of capital expenditures to the company’s growth businesses.

· Mr. Bello adjusted our capital strategy to align with our current business strategy, with a continued focus on driving free cash flow, balancing re-investment in the business and shareholder returns, and maintaining a strong balance sheet and a solid investment grade rating. Under Mr. Bello’s leadership, in 2013, we completed the following:

o Modestly increased our leverage target (net debt/EBITDA) from 2.1x to 2.5x;

o Issued $2.8 billion of new debt and redeemed existing debt, extending the company’s average maturity to nine years and lowering the average interest rate to about 5%; 

o Commenced share buybacks, with a target of $1.0 billion by the end of 2014;

o Upsized our syndicated credit facility to $2.5 billion;

o Created a new US commercial paper program to complement the existing Canadian program; and

o Pre-funded key US and UK pension plans with a $500 million contribution to take advantage of attractive interest rates.

Base salary: Mr. Bello’s salary was unchanged in 2013 compared to 2012, as base salaries for most of our executives were frozen.

Annual incentive award: Mr. Bello was granted a 2013 Corporate-level award based on our company’s consolidated performance. This award had an actual payout of approximately 89% of target.

Long-term incentive awards: Mr. Bello’s award (as a percentage of base salary) was raised from 150% in 2012 to 200% in 2013 to increase the market competitiveness of his compensation package. In both years, his award was split between 50% PRSUs and 50% stock options. PRSUs granted in 2013 have a three-year performance period and will fully vest in March 2016. Stock options granted in 2013 will vest 25% each year over a four-year period. In addition, based on our company’s performance for the three-year period ended December 31, 2013, PRSUs that Mr. Bello received in 2011 vested in March 2014 at approximately 64% of target, which resulted in lower realized compensation than originally intended.

Mr. Bello’s total direct compensation for 2013 was 3% below his target based on the performance of his 2013 annual incentive award.

In 2013, we also granted 50,000 TRSUs to Mr. Bello to strengthen his overall retention and to increase the market competitiveness of his compensation package. As TRSUs are not part of Mr. Bello’s typical annual compensation, they are not reflected in the table above. All of these TRSUs will vest on the fifth anniversary of the grant date.

· Reuters reduced operating costs.

· Reuters redirected journalist staff from some developed countries to emerging markets such as Brazil and parts of Asia to expand coverage in growth geographies.

· Mr. Rashbass began focusing Reuters more on improving its product proposition and specific coverage needs of external customers.

Base salary: Mr. Ramamurthy’s salary was unchanged in 2013 compared to 2012, as base salaries for most of our executives were frozen.

Annual incentive award: When granted, Mr. Ramamurthy’s 2013 annual incentive award was based on a combination of Corporate and business unit level performance, with 30% based on the company’s consolidated performance and 70% based on the performance of our GGO business. Performance results were 89% and 76%, respectively, which would have resulted in a blended award of approximately 80%. We agreed to pay Mr. Ramamurthy a payout at 100% of target as part of his separation agreement.

Long-term incentive awards: Mr. Ramamurthy received a long-term incentive award in 2013, but PRSUs and unvested options granted to him as part of that award were forfeited when he left Thomson Reuters.

Mr. Ramamurthy left Thomson Reuters after December 31, 2013. For additional information about his separation agreement, please see the “Termination Benefits” section of this circular.

Retirement and Other Benefits

Our retirement and other benefits are designed to provide a competitive level of post-retirement income and strong incentive for executives to remain with Thomson Reuters throughout their careers. For more information, please see the “Pension and Other Retirement Benefits” subsection of the “Executive Compensation” section of this circular.

Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits

The HR Committee periodically reviews the perquisites and other personal benefits provided to our executive officers. Over the past few years, we have reduced and eliminated various perquisites and other personal benefits provided to our named executive officers (and other members of senior management) in order to simplify our compensation program, better align with emerging trends and focus on performance-based variable incentives. Only those perquisites which the HR Committee believes provide a significant benefit to our company on a cost-effective basis were retained.

Thomson Reuters Management Proxy Circular

49

For our named executive officers, perquisites and benefits provided in 2013 included:

· Executive physicals– this benefit can be provided by our company on a coordinated basis at a reasonable price to our organization and reduces the risk that we will lose an executive to an unforeseen medical or health issue, while minimizing the amount of time an executive needs to spend away from the office;

· Use of company automobiles– this benefit is currently limited to Mr. Smith, who is entitled to use a car and driver, which allows him to devote additional time to Thomson Reuters business; and

· Tax and financial planning assistance– this benefit allows our named executive officers to utilize the services of a limited number of professional advisors who are familiar with our compensation structure and benefit programs. Thomson Reuters benefits from being able to minimize the number of advisors with which it works.

Insurance Policies

Our company provides group life insurance to certain of our U.S. employees in the amount of their annual salary up to a maximum of $400,000. Employees may increase this coverage at their expense. All of our named executive officers except for Mr. Rashbass are eligible for this benefit. Mr. Rashbass is based in the U.K. and has company-provided life insurance coverage equal to four times his base salary.

Termination Benefits

Messrs. Smith, Bello and Rashbass and Ms. Stanley may be eligible to receive certain payments and benefits if their employment is terminated under certain circumstances. We recently entered into a separation agreement with Mr. Ramamurthy in connection with his termination of employment. Additional information is provided in the “Termination Benefits” subsection of this circular. The HR Committee believes that potential termination benefits enhance our ability to attract and retain our executive officers. These benefits do not enhance an executive’s income while employed at our company and are independent of direct compensation decisions made annually.

Equity Grant Policy

We have an equity grant policy which sets forth approval requirements for off-cycle awards. Under the policy, the CEO is authorized to approve certain off-cycle awards, depending on the size of the grant and the identity of the particular grantee. Awards that exceed the CEO’s approval authority are submitted to the HR Committee. In addition, under the policy, unless we are in a designated closed period or are in possession of material nonpublic information, off-cycle awards are granted on the last business day of each month.

New hire awards are made on the last business day of the month during which the grantee commenced employment with Thomson Reuters.

Promotion-related awards are made on the last business day of the month during which the grantee’s promotion was made effective by Thomson Reuters. If we are in a designated closed period or otherwise are in possession of material nonpublic information on the date that a grant would typically be made, then the grant is not made until the last business day of the month after the closed period has ended, or when we are no longer in possession of material nonpublic information.

Insider Trading Policy/Hedging Restrictions

Our directors and executive officers are required to obtain pre-clearance prior to trading in Thomson Reuters securities. Directors and executive officers may only trade in securities of our company during designated open periods when they do not possess material nonpublic information. Our open periods begin on the business day after we release quarterly or annual earnings and end on the last business day of the quarter or year. Directors and executive officers report their transactions in our securities through the System for Electronic Disclosure by Insiders (SEDI) in Canada, which can be accessed at www.sedi.ca. Our directors and executive officers are exempt from reporting their transactions with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as our company is a foreign private issuer for SEC purposes.

Under our insider trading policy, our directors and executive officers are prohibited from entering into certain types of hedging transactions involving securities of our company, such as short sales, puts and calls.

Historic Named Executive Officer Compensation

Over the past five years (from January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2013), the total shareholder return of our U.S. and Canadian-dollar denominated common shares increased approximately 57% and 37%, respectively. However, as reflected in the table below, compensation for our CEO and the other four named executive officers were 13% and 3% lower in 2013 than the corresponding values in 2009.

In the table below, values for 2011 and 2012 are higher than other years as they include a number of special TRSU grants related to executive changes. These TRSU grants are not part of an executive’s regular annual compensation. In 2011, we announced that our former CEO would be leaving the company at the end of the year and we granted retention awards to certain of our named executive officers. 2012 compensation reflected special awards granted for new executive appointments, including Mr. Smith’s appointment as our CEO and Mr. Bello’s appointment as our CFO. Several other executive officers received TRSU grants in connection with promotions that involved increased responsibilities.

The five-year historic trend reflects that our CEO compensation and aggregate named executive officer compensation has reduced over the period. This outcome reflects thoughtful and balanced compensation decision-making related to our named executive officers.

2014 Compensation Program Changes

In March 2014, annual and long-term incentive awards were granted to Mr. Smith and members of his executive committee. The HR Committee decided to increase Mr. Smith’s long-term incentive award target from 250% to 350% of his base salary to increase the market competiveness of his compensation package.

In 2014, we modified our annual incentive award program. Annual incentive awards are now based 50% on revenues and 50% on adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures. We are no longer utilizing free cash flow as part of our annual incentive award program, as this measure is now reflected in our long-term incentive awards. 

Long-term incentive awards granted to Mr. Smith and members of his executive committee for the 2014-2016 performance period continue to be split between 50% PRSUs and 50% stock options. PRSUs granted in March 2014 for the period that started on January 1, 2014 and which ends on December 31, 2016 are based 50% on adjusted EPS and 50% on free cash flow per share performance. Free cash flow per share replaced return on invested capital (ROIC) as a financial measure for 2014 PRSU awards due to its transparency and strong shareholder alignment.

4 For options granted on March 6, 2013 to all of the named executive officers except for Mr. Rashbass (who was not employed by our company as of then), we calculated the grant date fair value of $5.05per option based on the closing common share price of $30.85on the date prior to the grant date and the average of Black-Scholes valuations of 2012 grants, which was 16.36%. This amount differs from the accounting fair value, which was $4.39 per option. The difference between the two calculations is $0.66per option. The differences between the accounting fair value and the amounts reported in this table are $253,367for Mr. Smith, $111,157for Mr. Bello, $49,045for Ms. Stanley and $83,371for Mr. Ramamurthy. The exercise price for these options is $30.85per share, which was the closing price of our common shares on the day before the grant date.

For options granted on September 19, 2013 to Mr. Rashbass, we calculated the grant date fair value of $6.82 per option based on the closing price of $34.40 on the date prior to Mr. Rashbass joining the company on July 18, 2013 and a Black-Scholes value of 19.82% of this share price. This amount differs from the accounting fair value, which was $4.77 per option. The difference between the two calculations is $2.05 per option. The differences between the accounting fair value and the amounts reported in this table are $188,026 for Mr. Rashbass. The exercise price for these options is $35.37 per share, which was the closing price of our common shares on the day before the grant date.

For options granted on March 7, 2012, we calculated the grant date fair value of $4.93 per option based on the average common share price of $27.46 for the three month period prior to January 31, 2012 and a Black-Scholes value of 18% of this average share price. This amount differs from the accounting fair value, which was $5.21 per option. The difference between the two calculations is $0.28 per option. The differences between the accounting fair value and the amounts reported in this table are $110,042 for Mr. Smith, $34,078 for Mr. Bello, $18,185for Ms. Stanley and $34,078 for Mr. Ramamurthy. The exercise price for these options is $28.36 per share, which was the closing price of our common shares on the day before the grant date.

For options granted on March 2, 2011, we calculated the grant date fair value of $7.64 per option based on the average common share price of $37.62 for the three month period prior to January 31, 2011 and a Black-Scholes value of 20.3% of this average share price. This amount differs from the accounting fair value, which was $8.42 per option. The difference between the two calculations is $0.78 per option. The differences between the accounting fair value and the amounts reported in this table are $102,102 for Mr. Smith, $28,376 for Mr. Bello and $31,910 for Ms. Stanley. The exercise price for these options is $38.98 per share, which was the closing price of our common shares on the day before the grant date.

We estimate the grant date value of stock option awards using a lattice-binomial valuation model. For financial statement reporting purposes, we expense the fair value of stock options over the vesting period using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate fair value for each option on the grant date. The principal assumptions used by our company in applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model in 2013, 2012 and 2011 are described in note 25 to our 2013 annual financial statements.

The number of stock options granted to each named executive officer that were outstanding as of December 31, 2013 is set forth in the “Incentive Plan Awards” subsection that follows.

5 Annual cash incentive payouts are with respect to performance during 2013, 2012 and 2011. Payouts were made in the first quarter of 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively, following certification of the achievement of applicable performance goals. Additional information is provided in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this circular.

6 Pension value represents the compensatory portion of the change in the accrued pension obligation. The amount reflected for Mr. Smith in 2012 was due to his increase in base salary and the increase in his supplemental executive retirement plan (SERP) annual benefit from 50% to 60% of his base salary. Additional information is provided in the “Pension and Other Retirement Benefits” section of this circular.

7 All other compensation for 2013 includes the following perquisites:

· For Mr. Smith, tax and financial planning advice of $16,345.

· For Mr. Bello, tax and financial planning advice of $18,050.

· For Ms. Stanley, tax and financial planning advice of $21,120.

· For Mr. Ramamurthy, tax and financial planning advice of $17,380.

All other compensation for 2013 for Messrs. Smith, Bello and Ramamurthy and Ms. Stanley also includes company matching contributions under the U.S. employees’ 401(k) retirement savings plan, which is described in Appendix A to this circular. All other compensation for 2013 for Mr. Ramamurthy also includes company contributions to the other defined contribution plan in which he participated, which is described in the “Pension and Other Retirement Benefits” section below.

The value of DSU and RSU dividend equivalents credited or paid to named executive officers is not included within “All other compensation” as the right to receive dividends has been factored into the reported grant date fair value of the awards. Mr. Smith does not receive additional compensation for serving on our board of directors.

Total Realized Compensation

As discussed above, to supplement the required Summary Compensation Table, the table below sets forth 2013 total realized compensation for each of our named executive officers.

Name	Total realized compensation
James C. Smith	$	8,472,782
Stephane Bello	$	2,495,876
Andrew Rashbass	$	392,000
Deirdre Stanley	$	2,654,639
Shanker Ramamurthy	$	2,884,145

The amounts reported in the table above differ from the amounts reported in the Summary Compensation Table which are required under Canadian disclosure rules and are not a substitute for those amounts. Total Realized Compensation represents what was actually earned by each executive in 2013 and includes the value of base salary, annual and long term incentive awards actually paid in 2013 and the in-the-money value of any vested options that were exercised in 2013. For more information on total compensation as calculated under Canadian disclosure rules, please see the Summary Compensation Table above.

For the majority of our named executive officers, total realized compensation is substantially lower than the value shown in the Summary Compensation Table. For Mr. Smith, the value is similar to the total value in the Summary Compensation table.

INCENTIVE PLAN AWARDS

Outstanding Share-Based Awards and Option-Based Awards

The following table sets forth certain information regarding outstanding stock option and RSU awards granted to our named executive officers as of December 31, 2013. The value of unexercised in-the-money options is based on the difference between the closing price of our common shares on the NYSE on December 31, 2013 (the last trading day of the year) and the exercise price of the applicable option. The market or payout value of share-based awards that have not vested is based on the total of TRSUs and the target amount of PRSUs granted for long-term incentive awards, using the closing price of our common shares on the NYSE on December 31, 2013. PRSU awards may or may not pay out, depending on our company’s performance against targets. For more information regarding these awards, please see the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this circular.

Incentive Plan Awards – Value Vested or Earned in 2013

The following table sets forth information regarding incentive plan awards that vested or were earned in 2013. The value of share-based awards reflects the vesting of certain RSUs, including PRSUs for the performance period of January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2013 and TRSUs. The dollar value of these units reflects the number of units vested/earned multiplied by the closing price of our common shares on the NYSE on the vesting date. Non-equity incentive plan compensation reflects the value of annual cash incentive awards earned for 2013. For more information regarding these awards, please see the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this circular.

Description of Equity Compensation and Other Plans

We are authorized to issue common shares under the following plans:

· Stock incentive plan;

· Deferred compensation plan; and

· Employee stock purchase plans.

We also maintain a U.S. employees’ 401(k) retirement savings plan and a share plan for our non-employee directors but any shares needed to satisfy our obligations under those plans are purchased in the open market, so there is no dilutive effect. We also grant cash-based awards under our phantom stock plan.

Copies of our plans are available to any shareholder upon request by writing to: Thomson Reuters, Attention: Associate General Counsel, Corporate & Securities, 3 Times Square, New York, New York 10036, United States.

The tables set forth in Appendix A to this circular provide information regarding the key features of our plans. Our director compensation plan is described in the “About Our Directors - Director Compensation” section of this circular.

Pension and Other Retirement Benefits

The following describes pension and other retirement benefits provided to our named executive officers.

U.S. Employees’ 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan.Messrs. Smith and Bello and Ms. Stanley participate in a 401(k) retirement savings plan, which provides for company matching contributions to amounts contributed by each of them to the plan. Mr. Ramamurthy also participated in the 401(k) retirement savings plan prior to his separation from our company. For additional information, please see Appendix A to this circular.

Pension Plans

· U.S. – Messrs. Smith and Bello and Ms. Stanley participate in a U.S. defined benefit pension plan which has been closed to new participants since 2006. Accordingly, Mr. Ramamurthy did not participate in this plan as he joined our company in 2011. The U.S. pension plan in which Messrs. Smith and Bello and Ms. Stanleyparticipate is a defined benefit plan funded by one of our wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries that is qualified under U.S. federal income tax laws. Benefits under our U.S. qualified pension plan are subject to a maximum annual benefit based on eligible compensation limits set forth by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. In 2013, the eligible compensation limit was $255,000 and the maximum annual benefit limit under the pension plan was $205,000.

· U.K. - Thomson Reuters defined benefit pension plans in the U.K. have been closed to new participants since 2001. Accordingly, Mr. Rashbass currently does not participate in these plans as he joined our company in 2013. Mr. Rashbass opted out of participation in a U.K. defined contribution plan.

Retirement Plus Plans

· We provide a supplemental benefit to Messrs. Smith and Bello and Ms. Stanley through a “retirement plus” plan which is an unfunded, non-qualified defined benefit plan. Messrs. Smith and Bello and Ms. Stanley receive allocations with respect to compensation above the eligible compensation limits imposed by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and subject to a maximum eligible “retirement plus” plan compensation limit of $300,000. In 2013, the IRS compensation limit was $255,000. As a result, Messrs. Smith and Bello and Ms. Stanley received allocations of $3,000, $2,400 and $2,000, respectively, in 2013 under this plan. Amounts under this plan are paid from our general assets.

· We provided a supplemental benefit to Mr. Ramamurthy though a separate “retirement plus” plan which is an unfunded, non-qualified defined contribution plan. Mr. Ramamurthy received a 4% allocation of his base salary over the IRS eligible compensation limit. There is no maximum annual “retirement plus” plan compensation limit for this plan. Amounts under this plan are also paid from our general assets.

SERPs.The Thomson Reuters SERPs are also unfunded, non-qualified defined benefit pension plans under which benefits are paid from our general assets. Of our named executive officers, only Messrs. Smith and Bello and Ms. Stanley have SERPs. SERP benefits supplement amounts received by Messrs. Smith and Bello and Ms. Stanley under our other defined benefit plans (i.e., the pension plan and retirement plus plan) and our defined contribution plans, which are funded by company contributions and earnings attributable to such contributions. Mr. Smith is currently vested in his SERP benefits (other than in the event of his voluntary resignation). Mr. Bello and Ms. Stanley will vest in their SERP benefits when they are 55 years old (as each of them already has at least 10 years of service with our company).

The combined annual benefit under the pension plan, retirement plus plan and SERP for Messrs. Smith and Bello and Ms. Stanley is a pension equal to a percentage of their final base salary, following vesting and commencing upon retirement or termination of employment. This percentage of final base salary is 60% for Mr. Smith, 50% for Mr. Bello and 50% for Ms. Stanley. The benefit amount will be reduced by 5% for each year by which retirement precedes age 62. In certain circumstances, each of Messrs. Smith and Bello and Ms. Stanley will be entitled to a pension upon disability. The annual benefit is payable for life, with a spousal survivor pension of 50% of the officer’s pension. Annual benefit amounts are not subject to reductions for social security benefits.

Defined Benefit Plans Table

The following table sets forth defined benefit plan information related to our named executive officers.

	Number of years credited service (#)		Annual benefits payable ($)1,2				Opening present value of defined benefit obligation ($)3		Compensatory change ($)4			Non- compensatory change ($)5			Closing present value of defined benefit obligation ($)6

Shanker Ramamurthy		–		–		–		–		–			–			–

1 Annual benefits payable at year-end and at age 65 represent the estimated pension earned for all service to date, and based on total service projected to age 65, respectively. Benefits are calculated based on actual pensionable earnings as of December 31, 2013 and on the terms of retirement agreements effective as of that date. Benefits payable at year-end do not include any reduction that may apply if a named executive officer retires prior to his or her normal retirement date.

2 Annual benefits at age 65 for SERP participants are the same at year-end since the benefit under the SERP plan is not service-related. The amount of benefits reported at year-end for Messrs. Smith and Bello and Ms. Stanley assumes that each of them will remain with Thomson Reuters until age 55 and that otherwise only the pension plan and defined benefit retirement plus plan benefits in the amount of $120,000, $47,000 and $43,000, respectively, would be payable. Annual benefits reflect amounts payable as joint and survivor annuities.

3 The accrued obligation represents the value of the projected pension benefit from the pension plan, retirement plus plan and the SERPs, earned for all service through December 31, 2012 (the measurement date for 2012 year-end disclosure). The key assumptions include a discount rate of 4.0% and a rate of compensation increase of 3.5%.

4 Compensatory changes include service cost (with interest to the end of the year) plus plan changes and differences between actual and estimated earnings.

5 The non-compensatory change includes the interest cost on the accrued obligation plus change in discount rate from 4.0% to 4.9%.

6 The accrued obligation represents the value of the projected pension benefit from the pension plan, retirement plus plan and the SERPs, earned for all service through December 31, 2013 (the measurement date for 2013 year-end disclosure). The key assumptions for the SERP include a discount rate of 4.9% and a rate of compensation increase of 3.5%.

Termination Benefits

Payments upon Termination

Shanker Ramamurthy

Mr. Ramamurthy is entitled to receive certain payments and benefits in connection with his separation from our company. These payments and benefits are in accordance with terms set forth in a separation agreement between our company and Mr. Ramamurthy. Mr. Ramamurthy’s last day of employment with our company was December 31, 2013.

The following table quantifies incremental payments made or to which Mr. Ramamurthy is entitled based on values as of December 31, 2013. The price per share of our common shares on the NYSE on that date was $37.82.

Type of Payment or Benefit	Incremental Amount
Severance	$	1,700,000
Annual cash incentive award		-
Long-term incentive awards
PRSUs		591,429
Stock options		29,464
TRSUs		2,745,278
Benefits		75,000
Total	$	5,141,168

· Severance – Mr. Ramamurthy is entitled to receive 24 months base salary as severance, which will be paid in accordance with our standard payroll practices.

· Annual cash incentive award – Mr. Ramamurthy’s 2013 annual incentive award is reflected in the Summary Compensation Table and reflects our agreement to pay him at 100% of target. As a result, this payout is not included in the table above. We paid Mr. Ramamurthy his annual cash incentive award in February 2014.

· Long-term incentive awards

o PRSUs – Mr. Ramamurthy’s PRSUs for the 2011-2013 performance period are reflected in the ”Incentive Plan Awards – Value Vested or Earned in 2013” section of this circular and reflect our agreement to vest these PRSUs at 100% of target. As a result, this payout is not included in the table above. Mr. Ramamurthy received common shares in March 2014 following the vesting of these PRSUs. PRSUs granted to Mr. Ramamurthy for the 2012-2014 performance period will vest at 100% of target in March 2015, pro-rated through his termination date. The amount reflected in the table above represents the full value of these PRSUs, as these PRSUs would ordinarily be forfeited under plan terms and conditions. Mr. Ramamurthy’s PRSUs for the 2013-2015 performance period were forfeited.

o Stock Options – All unvested options granted to Mr. Ramamurthy in 2011 fully vested and became exercisable on December 31, 2013. Unvested options granted to him in 2012 and 2013 expired as of his termination date. Under plan terms and conditions, Mr. Ramamurthy had three months following his termination date to exercise all of his options that were vested as of his termination date. Mr. Ramamurthy was provided with an extended period through May 14, 2014 to exercise vested options granted to him in 2012 and 2013 and until March 31, 2014 to exercise options granted to him in 2011. The amount in the table above reflects the in-the-money value of unvested options granted in 2011 that vested as of his termination date.

· TRSUs – All of Mr. Ramamurthy’s outstanding TRSUs as of December 31, 2013 vested in full. As these TRSUs would ordinarily have been forfeited under plan terms and conditions, the table above reflects the value of all TRSUs that vested. Mr. Ramamurthy received common shares in February 2014 following the vesting of these TRSUs.

· Benefits – Mr. Ramamurthy is entitled to continued participation in group medical, dental and vision plans during the severance period. Mr. Ramamurthy is also entitled to receive financial counseling services through the time that he completes his 2013 tax return. The amount reflected in the table above also includes up to $50,000 of outplacement services provided to Mr. Ramamurthy and reimbursement of up to $25,000 of legal fees incurred by Mr. Ramamurthy in connection with legal assistance for his separation agreement.

· Pension – Mr. Ramamurthy is not entitled to pension benefits from our company as he did not participate in our defined benefit pension plans.

Mr. Ramamurthy agreed to a non-compete, confidentiality and non-disparagement undertaking as part of his separation agreement. The non-compete undertaking is for a two year period. Mr. Ramamurthy also agreed to a two year non-solicitation undertaking and provided a release and waiver of employment and other claims in favor of our company.

Potential Payments upon Termination

For severance payments, each of our named executive officers would be entitled to two years of salary continuation in the event of involuntary termination without cause. We typically pay severance in accordance with our standard payroll practices, as opposed to in a lump sum.

For annual cash incentive awards, pursuant to plan terms and conditions, if a named executive officer’s employment ended on or after July 1 due to involuntary termination without cause, death, disability or a change of control, then he or she would ordinarily be entitled to receive a pro-rated payment based on the number of days worked in the year. This type of payment would typically be made at an assumed target rate, and the payment would occur prior to year-end. Annual cash incentive payments are otherwise made following completion of the financial year, after measuring our company’s actual performance against predetermined goals. Each of our named executive officers would not receive an annual cash incentive award if his or her employment ended due to involuntary termination for cause or voluntary termination/resignation.

For stock options, pursuant to award terms and conditions, unvested options would vest or be forfeited as set forth below.

For pensions, Messrs. Smith and Bello and Ms. Stanley would not be entitled to incremental pension-related payments or benefits in connection with a termination of employment. Information regarding their pension benefits is included in the “Defined Benefits Plans Table” earlier in this circular. As noted in the “Pension and Other Retirement Benefits” section of this circular, Mr. Rashbass does not participate in our defined benefit pension plans.

For benefits, amounts reflect the estimated amount for executive physicals, tax, financial planning and outplacement assistance and the continuation of generally available health and welfare benefits during the applicable period following termination. 

None of our named executive officers is currently eligible for early retirement or normal retirement. As such, retirement is not presented in the table as a termination event.

Our named executive officers do not have a right to receive a gross-up for any U.S. federal or other excise tax that might be due upon termination.

Each individual would be expected to provide a release and waiver of employment and other claims in favor of our company in connection with receiving severance benefits.

Amounts actually received should any of the named executive officers cease to be employed will vary based on factors such as the timing during the year of any such event, our share price, the executive’s age, the circumstances of termination and any changes to our benefit arrangements and policies.

Messrs. Smith, Bello and Rashbass and Ms. Stanley may be eligible to receive certain incremental payments and benefits upon termination of employment under various circumstances. The table below includes the value of incremental compensation that would be available to each named executive officer upon the specified events. Payments and benefits contemplated by plan or award terms and conditions are not reflected in the table.

The amounts in the table assume that:

· The officer left our company on December 31, 2013; and

· The price per share of our common shares on the NYSE on that date was $37.82 (which reflects the closing price on December 31, 2013, which was the last trading day of the year).

DIRECTORS’ AND OFFICERS’ INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

We provide indemnification to our directors to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations.

Under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (OBCA), our company may indemnify a present or former director or officer or another individual who acts or acted at our company’s request as a director or officer or an individual acting 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 individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding to which the individual is involved because of that association with our company or other entity, if the individual acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of our company or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at our company’s 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.

Pursuant to our organizational documents, we are required to indemnify the individuals referred to above and the heirs and legal representatives of such individuals to the extent permitted by the OBCA.

We maintain, at our expense, a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy that provides protection for our directors and officers against liability incurred by them in their capacities as such. This policy provides for a limit of up to $100 million for each claim and $100 million in the aggregate and there is no deductible for this coverage. The insurance applies in circumstances where we may not indemnify our directors and officers for their acts or omissions. Annual premiums paid by our company relating to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance are currently approximately $1.8 million.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

Certain financial measures discussed in this circular, such as revenues from ongoing businesses before currency, underlying operating profit margin, free cash flow, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA before capital expenditures, adjusted earnings per share (EPS) and return on invested capital (ROIC), are non-International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) financial measures. In the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this circular, we explain why we use certain non-IFRS measures as part of our annual and long-term incentive awards. For reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS measure, please see the MD&A section of our 2013 annual report. Adjusted EBITDA before capital expenditures and free cash flow, as discussed in this circular and as used for incentive compensation purposes only, are based on earnings from continuing operations and net cash provided by operating activities, as disclosed and reconciled in our 2013 annual MD&A. Non-IFRS financial measures do not have any standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to the calculation of similar measures used by other companies, and should not be viewed as alternatives to measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with IFRS.

Communication with the Board

Shareholders and other interested parties may contact the board or its non-management or independent directors as a group, or the directors who preside over their meetings, by writing to them c/o Deirdre Stanley, Executive Vice President, General Counsel & Secretary, Thomson Reuters, 3 Times Square, New York, New York 10036, United States. 

2014 Annual Meeting - Questions from Shareholders

If you are a shareholder who is viewing the meeting by webcast or is unable to attend this year’s meeting in person but have a question, you may e-mail your question to investor.relations@thomsonreuters.com or mail your question to the Executive Vice President, General Counsel & Secretary at the address noted above in the “Communication with the Board” section. While we will seek to respond to as many shareholder questions as possible at the meeting, we cannot assure you that all questions will be able to be addressed at the meeting. If we are unable to address your question at the meeting, we will separately provide a response to you.

These documents are also available on our website.

Financial information about our company is provided in our consolidated financial statements and MD&A. You can obtain copies of these financial statements and MD&A by contacting our Investor Relations Department by mail or e-mail as indicated in the paragraph immediately above. You can also find these financial statements and MD&A on our website, www.thomsonreuters.com. Additional information regarding our Audit Committee that is required to be disclosed pursuant to Canadian Securities Administrators Multilateral Instrument Form 52-110F1 is included in our 2013 annual report.

You may access other information about our company, including our continuous disclosure materials, reports, statements and other information that we file with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities through SEDAR at www.sedar.comand in the United States with the SEC through EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

Under NYSE listing standards, we are required to disclose any significant ways in which our corporate governance practices differ from those required to be followed by U.S. domestic companies under NYSE listing standards. There is only one significant difference between our corporate governance practices and those required of domestic companies under NYSE listing standards. NYSE listing standards require shareholder approval of all “equitycompensation plans” and material revisions to these types of plans (with limited exceptions). TSX rules require shareholder approval of security based compensation arrangements only for plans which involve newly issued shares or specified amendments to the plans. Similar to a number of other Canadian issuers, our company follows the TSX rules.

Additional Director Disclosure

Since 1992, Mr. Olisa has been chairman of two boutique merchant banks that provide advisory services to technology companies, some of which are or have been early stage. Mr. Olisa serves on the board of directors of a number of these companies. He was previously a director of Datapoint Newco 1 Limited and Axellis Limited which were dissolved after liquidation proceedings in the U.K. in 2004 and 2012, respectively.

Share Repurchases

In 2013, we filed an amended and restated notice of intention to make a normal course issuer bid to enable us to purchase up to 30,000,000 common shares. The notice provides that we may purchase these shares between May 22, 2013 and May 21, 2014 at prevailing market prices in amounts and at times to be determined by our company. We may make purchases through the TSX or the NYSE. Common shares that we purchase under the bid are cancelled. In 2013, we repurchased 10,878,884 common shares at an average price per share of $36.79. A copy of the notice of intention is available at www.sedar.com and www.sec.gov and may also be obtained without charge from our Investor Relations Department at the address listed above.

Phantom Stock Plan
Eligibility	Any employee or officer of Thomson Reuters (as may be determined by the HR Committee). Non-employee directors are not eligible to participate in the plan.

DSUs accumulate notional equivalents of dividends paid on our common shares.
Plan amendments and changes	Substantially similar to the provisions of the stock incentive plan described above. In 2013, we made administrative amendments to the deferred compensation plan. These amendments did not require shareholder approval.

Employee Stock Purchase Plans
Eligibility	Designated employees in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and other countries.

Maximum number of shares issuable	21,000,000 shares (comprised of 15,000,000 for U.S. employee stock purchase plan and 6,000,000 for global employee stock purchase plan).
Shares issued as of December 31, 2013	9,499,210 shares, representing approximately 1.2% of our total issued and outstanding shares.

Types of equity-based awards that may be issued	Common shares
ESPP – key terms	•	The ESPP is voluntary. Eligible employees contribute to the ESPP through payroll deductions by designating from 1% to 10% of eligible compensation to be withheld.
	•	On the last business day of each calendar quarter, we use accumulated payroll deductions to buy common shares for participants. The price paid for shares is 85% of the closing price (i.e., a 15% discount) of our common shares on the NYSE on the last trading day of the quarter. Non-U.S. participants purchase shares in the local foreign currency equivalent of this amount.
	•	A minimum holding period applies to all shares purchased under the ESPP, unless participants in a particular country are exempted from this requirement due to legal, regulatory or tax considerations. While a participant is a Thomson Reuters employee, if he or she is subject to a holding period, then shares purchased at the end of a calendar quarter may not be sold until the next quarterly offering period ends.
	•	Employees may elect to change or suspend payroll deductions during each quarterly offering period and may elect to withdraw from the ESPP at least 10 business days before a quarterly purchase date. If an individual ceases to be an eligible employee of Thomson Reuters, he or she is considered to have withdrawn from the ESPP. If ESPP enrollment is cancelled, an employee may withdraw all of his or her payroll deductions from the ESPP that have not been used to purchase shares.
Plan amendments and changes	Substantially similar to the provisions of the stock incentive plan described above. In 2013, we amended the U.S. ESPP to add seven million shares. This amendment received shareholder approval at the May 2013 annual meeting.
Transfers and assignments	Not possible other than by the laws of descent and distribution.

401(k) Retirement Savings Plan
Eligibility	Substantially all of our U.S. employees.
Purpose	Provide eligible employees with a tax-qualified company-sponsored retirement savings plan.
Maximum number of shares issuable	Shares for our 401(k) retirement savings plan are currently purchased in the open market.
Shares issued as of December 31, 2013	Not applicable, since shares are purchased in the open market.
Shares available for issue as of December 31, 2013	Not applicable, since shares are purchased in the open market.
Contributions	Participating employees can contribute up to 25% of their eligible compensation on a combined before-tax or after-tax basis. We also make a company matching contribution to amounts contributed by participating employees. For participants in a U.S. defined benefit pension plan, the amount of company matching contributions is 50% of the first 6% of eligible compensation that is contributed by the participant. Employees who do not participate in a U.S. defined benefit pension plan receive company matching contributions equal to 100% of the first 4% of eligible compensation that they contributed. The maximum before-tax contribution that can be made by a participating employee in 2014 is $17,500 per year (or $23,000 per year for certain participants age 50 and over).
Investment options	As of March 25, 2014, the plan had a number of different investment options, one of which was a company stock fund. Employees only contribute to the company stock fund if they have elected to do so.
Plan amendments	Substantially similar to the provisions of the stock incentive plan described above. In 2013, we made certain technical amendments to this plan, primarily related to acquisitions and dispositions of businesses and for administrative purposes. These amendments did not require shareholder approval.

THOMSON REUTERS

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE GUIDELINES

1. GENERAL

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Thomson Reuters Corporation (the “Corporation”) believes that sound corporate governance practices are essential to the well-being of the Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Thomson Reuters”) and the promotion and protection of its shareholders’ interests. The Board oversees the functioning of Thomson Reuters governance system, in part, through the work of the Corporate Governance Committee.

The Board has adopted these guidelines, which reflect Thomson Reuters commitment to high standards of corporate governance, to assist the Board in supervising the management of the business and affairs of Thomson Reuters as required under applicable law and stock exchange rules and requirements.

The fundamental responsibility of the Board is to supervise the management of the business and affairs of Thomson Reuters with a view to sustainable value creation for all shareholders. The Board seeks to ensure fair reporting, including financial reporting, to shareholders of the Corporation and other interested persons as well as ethical and legal corporate conduct by maintaining an appropriate system of corporate governance, internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. The Board believes that Thomson Reuters is best served by a board of directors that functions independently of management and that is informed and engaged.

The Corporate Governance Committee will review these guidelines annually, or more often if warranted, and recommend to the Board such changes as it determines necessary and appropriate in light of Thomson Reuters needs and legal, regulatory and other developments.

2. BOARD COMPOSITION

(a) Board Membership Criteria

The Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for assessing the need for new directors, the preferred experience and qualifications for new directors, and the skills and competencies that the Board, its committees, individual directors and candidates should possess. The Corporate Governance Committee recommends candidates for initial Board membership and Board members for renomination. Recommendations are based on character, integrity, judgment, business experience, record of achievement and any other skills and talents which would enhance the Board and overall management of the business and affairs of Thomson Reuters. Each director must have an understanding of Thomson Reuters principal operational and financial objectives, plans and strategies, financial position and performance and the performance of Thomson Reuters relative to its principal competitors. Directors must be able to dedicate sufficient time to carry out their duties and not assume responsibilities that would materially interfere with or be incompatible with Board membership. Directors who change their principal occupation are expected to advise the Corporate Governance Committee and, if determined appropriate by the Corporate Governance Committee, resign from the Board.

(b) Director Independence

The Board’s composition and procedures are designed to permit it to function independently from management and to promote and protect the interests of all shareholders. The Board believes that, except during periods of temporary vacancies, no fewer than half of its members should be independent.

The Board determines whether a director is independent. In determining independence, the Board relies on the applicable definitions in National Instrument 58-101 — Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices and the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) listing standards. Generally, an independent director means a director who has been affirmatively determined by the Board to have no “material relationship” with Thomson Reuters. In determining the independence of directors, the Board considers all relevant facts and circumstances, including that in the normal course of business, Thomson Reuters provides services to, and receives services from, companies that some of the independent directors are affiliated with.

The Board reviews the independence of all directors on an annual basis and publicly discloses its determinations. Directors have an ongoing obligation to inform the Board of any material changes in their circumstances or relationships that may affect the Board’s determination as to their independence.

(c) Board Size

The Board is currently of the view that its optimal size for effective decision-making and committee work is 14 to 16 members, and that its size may vary from time to time because of or in anticipation of retirements from the Board.

(d) Term

All directors are elected or appointed until the next annual meeting of shareholders or until they resign or their successor is elected or appointed.

The Board does not believe it should establish term limits or mandatory retirement ages for its members as such limits may deprive Thomson Reuters and its shareholders of the contributions of members who have been able to develop, over time, valuable insights into Thomson Reuters, its strategy and business operations.

- 2 -

(e) Majority Voting Policy

If a director does not receive the support of a majority of votes cast at a meeting of shareholders (other than at contested meetings), the director must immediately tender his or her resignation, to be effective when accepted by the Board. The Corporate Governance Committee will consider the director’s offer to resign and make a recommendation to the Board as to whether to accept it. The Board will accept resignations, absent exceptional circumstances, and in any case, must make its decision within 90 days of the relevant meeting of shareholders. A director who tenders a resignation will not participate in any meeting of the Corporate Governance Committee or the Board at which the resignation is considered. The Board’s decision will be promptly announced by news release and provided to the Toronto Stock Exchange and if a resignation is not accepted, the news release will fully state the reasons for that decision.

(f) Board Succession

The Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for maintaining a succession plan for the Board that is responsive to Thomson Reuters needs and the interests of its shareholders.

(g) Service on Other Boards and Audit Committees

The Board does not believe that its members should be prohibited from serving on the boards of other public companies so long as these commitments do not materially interfere with and are not incompatible with their ability to fulfill their duties as a member of the Board. Directors must advise the Chairman or any Deputy Chairman in advance of accepting an invitation to serve on the board of another public company and must indicate whether another director of the Corporation is also a member of the board of that public company. As a general rule, directors are not allowed to join a board of another public company on which two or more other directors of the Corporation serve (unless otherwise approved by the Corporate Governance Committee).

Members of the Audit Committee may not serve on the audit committees of more than two other public companies without the prior approval of the Board.

3. BOARD RESPONSIBILITIES

Directors have a duty to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of Thomson Reuters. In fulfilling its responsibilities, the Board is responsible for the following matters:

(a) Appointment and Supervision of the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Management

The Board appoints and supervises the Chief Executive Officer and other members of Thomson Reuters senior management, approves their compensation and, as permitted by applicable law, delegates to senior management responsibility for the day-to-day operations of Thomson Reuters.

The Board will satisfy itself that a process is in place to provide for the development, evaluation and succession of the Chief Executive Officer and other members of senior management. The Board maintains a position description for the Chief Executive Officer.

The Board will satisfy itself as to the integrity of the Chief Executive Officer and other members of senior management, including confirming that the Chief Executive Officer and other members of senior management maintain a culture of integrity throughout Thomson Reuters.

(b) Strategic Planning and Risk Management

The Board will establish and maintain Thomson Reuters mission, values, long-term strategic goals, performance objectives and operational policies. In this regard, the Board will:

In this regard, the Board will periodically review Thomson Reuters corporate disclosure policy and will confirm that a process is in place to disclose all material information in compliance with Thomson Reuters timely disclosure obligations and to prevent market abuse, whether by way of selective disclosure of material information to analysts, institutional investors, market professionals and others or otherwise.

(e) Corporate Governance

The Board will:

· develop Thomson Reuters approach to corporate governance, including establishing appropriate principles and guidelines relating to corporate governance that are specifically applicable to Thomson Reuters and practices to facilitate the Board’s independence;

· establish committees and approve their respective charters and the limits of authority delegated to each committee;

· establish appropriate processes for the regular evaluation of the effectiveness of the Board and its committees;

· approve the nomination of directors;

- 5 -

· arrange for non-management directors to meet at least quarterly without management present and for independent directors to meet at least annually; and

· ensure that sufficient funds are available for its effective operation and that of its committees.

(f) Observance of Thomson Reuters Trust Principles

The Board will satisfy itself that Thomson Reuters observes and upholds the Thomson Reuters Trust Principles.

(g) Approval of Certain Other Matters

The Board must itself approve those matters which may not be delegated by the Board under applicable corporate law including, among others, the issuance of securities (except in the manner and on terms authorized by the Board), the declaration of dividends, the repurchase or redemption of shares and matters relating to the adoption, repeal or amendment of the by-laws of the Corporation. The Board may also reserve to itself the right to approve certain matters notwithstanding the delegation to senior management of the authority to manage the business of Thomson Reuters.

4. PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDER

As of the date hereof, The Woodbridge Company Limited (“Woodbridge”), a private company that is the primary investment vehicle for members of the family of the late First Lord Thomson of Fleet, is the principal shareholder of the Corporation.  Woodbridge’s primary investment is its investment in the Corporation.  It actively monitors Thomson Reuters as a principal shareholder. In its involvement with Thomson Reuters, Woodbridge focuses principally on the following matters:

· corporate governance, including the effectiveness of the Board;

· the appointment of the Chief Executive Officer and other members of senior management and related succession planning;

· the development of the long-term business strategy of Thomson Reuters and assessment of its implementation; and

· capital strategy.

With its substantial equity investment in the Corporation, Woodbridge considers that its interests as a shareholder are aligned with those of all other shareholders.

- 6 -

5. CHAIRMAN

The Board will in each year elect from among its members a Chairman who is not the Chief Executive Officer or otherwise a member of senior management.

The Chairman is principally responsible for overseeing the operations and affairs of the Board. The Board maintains a position description for the Chairman.

6. DEPUTY CHAIRMAN

The Board may in each year elect from among its members one or more Deputy Chairmen who are not the Chief Executive Officer or otherwise members of senior management.

Any Deputy Chairman is responsible for assisting the Chairman in fulfilling his duties and for performing additional duties requested by the Board.

7. LEAD INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR

The Board may in each year elect a Lead Independent Director from among its members who have been determined to be independent.

8. SECRETARY

The Board will appoint an individual to act as the Secretary.

The Secretary is responsible for assisting the Chairman, any Deputy Chairman and the Lead Independent Director in managing the operations and affairs of the Board and for performing additional duties requested by the Chairman, any Deputy Chairman, the Lead Independent Director or the Board or any of its committees. The Secretary reports directly to the Chairman and any Deputy Chairman.

9. BOARD COMMITTEES

(a) General

The Board carries out its responsibilities directly and through the following committees and such other committees as it may establish from time to time: the Audit Committee, the Corporate Governance Committee and the Human Resources Committee.

- 7 -

(b) Composition

All committees are comprised solely of directors who are not members of management and who are selected by the Board on the recommendation of the Corporate Governance Committee. Thomson Reuters believes it is appropriate for directors who are affiliated with Woodbridge to serve on committees apart from the Audit Committee and the Board has approved the Corporation’s reliance on the “controlled company” exemption in the NYSE listing standards to do so. Members of the Audit Committee must be independent and are subject to the additional requirements that they may not (i) accept directly or indirectly any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from Thomson Reuters, other than director and committee fees and pension or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service (provided such compensation is not contingent in any way on continued service), or (ii) be an “affiliated person” of Thomson Reuters (within the meaning of applicable law). Each member of the Audit Committee must be “financially literate” (within the meaning of applicable law).

(c) Chair

The Audit Committee, Corporate Governance Committee and the Human Resources Committee are each chaired by an independent director who is selected by the Board on the recommendation of the Corporate Governance Committee. The chair of each committee is responsible for determining the agenda, frequency and conduct of committee meetings. The Board maintains a position description for the committee chairs.

(d) Charters

Each committee has its own charter that sets out its responsibilities and duties, qualifications for membership, procedures for committee member removal and appointment and reporting to the Board. On an annual basis, each committee’s charter is reviewed by both the committee itself and the Corporate Governance Committee and is also reviewed and approved by the Board. Copies of each charter are posted on the Thomson Reuters website.

10. BOARD AND COMMITTEE MEETINGS

(a) Scheduling

Board meetings are scheduled in advance at appropriate intervals throughout the year. In addition to regularly scheduled Board meetings, additional Board meetings may be called upon proper notice at any time to address specific needs of Thomson Reuters. The Board may also take action from time to time by unanimous written consent. A Board meeting may be called by the Chairman, any Deputy Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer or any two directors.

Each committee meets as often as it determines is necessary to fulfill its responsibilities. A meeting of any committee may be called by the chair or any other member of the committee, the Chairman, any Deputy Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer or the Secretary.

Board meetings are held in a manner and at a location determined by the Chairman and meetings of each committee are held in a manner and at a location determined by the committee chair. The Board generally meets at least once a year at the offices of one of Thomson Reuters businesses so that directors may meet operating management and develop a deeper understanding of a particular business group.

- 8 -

(b) Agenda

The Chairman establishes the agenda for each Board meeting in consultation with any Deputy Chairman, any Lead Independent Director, the other directors, the Secretary and the Chief Executive Officer. Any director may propose the inclusion of items on the agenda or at any Board meeting raise subjects that are not on the agenda for that meeting.

Committee chairs establish the agenda for each committee meeting. Any committee member may propose the inclusion of items on the agenda or at any committee meeting raise subjects that are not on the agenda for the meeting.

(c) Meetings of Non-Management and Independent Directors

To facilitate the Board’s independence, non-management directors meet as a group after each Board meeting without management present. Non-management directors may also meet without management present at such other times as appropriate. Any Deputy Chairman, any Lead Independent Director or the Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee will chair these meetings and inform management of their substance to the extent that action is appropriate or required. At least annually, the independent directors meet separately. Any Lead Independent Director (or if none has been elected, the Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee) chairs these meetings and informs the Chairman of the substance of these meetings to the extent that action is appropriate or required.

(d) Distribution of Information

Information that is important to the Board’s understanding of the business and its meeting agenda is distributed to the Board before it meets. Sensitive subject matters may be discussed at a meeting without written materials being distributed in advance or at the meeting. The Board periodically receives reports on the operating activities of Thomson Reuters, as well as reports on certain non-operational matters, including corporate governance, insurance, pensions and treasury matters. Thomson Reuters maintains a secure intranet site for directors, which is used to distribute information and to foster communication among directors and between directors and Thomson Reuters senior management.

(e) Preparation, Attendance and Participation

Each director is expected to prepare adequately for and attend all meetings of the Board and any committee of which he or she is a member. A director who is unable to attend a Board or committee meeting in person may participate by telephone or teleconference.

- 9 -

(f) Procedures

Procedures for Board meetings are determined by the Chairman unless otherwise determined by the by-laws of the Corporation or a resolution of the Board.

Procedures for committee meetings are determined by the chair of the committee unless otherwise determined by the by-laws of the Corporation or a resolution of the committee or the Board.

11. DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Compensation for directors of the Corporation is designed to attract and retain highly talented, committed and experienced directors. The Board believes that directors must be competitively compensated, taking into account the size and complexity of Thomson Reuters. The Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing directors’ compensation to ensure that it is competitive and consistent with the responsibilities, time commitment and risks associated with being an effective director and, to this end, periodically reviews directors’ compensation in the marketplace.

Non-management directors (other than the Chairman) are required to receive a specified portion of their annual retainer paid in deferred share units and they have the option to receive the remaining portion of their annual retainer in the form of deferred share units, common shares of the Corporation or cash (or a mix thereof). The mandatory equity component will be established by the Corporate Governance Committee. If a director elects to receive any portion of his or her annual retainer or other compensation in the form of common shares, the amount (net of withholding taxes) is used to buy common shares on the open market. If a director elects to receive deferred share units, units representing the value of the common shares are credited to the director’s account based on the market value of a share. Deferred share units are paid to the director following termination of Board service. Payment will be made in common shares or cash (net of withholding taxes) at the election of the director, based on the market value of the common shares. Deferred share units also accumulate additional units based on notional equivalents of dividends paid on the Corporation’s common shares. The Board believes that the Corporation’s director compensation arrangements further align the interests of directors with the interests of other shareholders.

The Chairman, any Deputy Chairman and any Lead Independent Director receive an annual retainer. The Chief Executive Officer does not receive additional compensation for serving as a director.

12. REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES

Directors are reimbursed by Thomson Reuters for reasonable travel and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with their duties as directors. The Corporate Governance Committee periodically reviews expenses submitted for reimbursement.

- 10 -

13. SHARE OWNERSHIP GUIDELINES

The Board believes that meaningful share ownership by directors and senior executive officers is in the best interest of Thomson Reuters because it further aligns the interests of directors and senior executive officers with those of its shareholders.

(a) Directors

Directors are encouraged to hold common shares of the Corporation and/or deferred share units having a value equal to at least three times the amount of the annual directors’ retainer by the later of (i) five years from the date of their initial election or appointment to the Board and (ii) January 1, 2017.

(b) Senior Executive Officers

The Chief Executive Officer is expected to hold common shares of the Corporation and/or deferred share units having a value equal to at least sixtimes his or her annual base salary. The other senior executive officers of the Corporation are expected to hold common shares of the Corporation and/or deferred share units having a value equal to a multiple of their annual base salary depending on their position with the Corporation.

The Chief Executive Officer and the other executive officers of the Corporation do not have a deadline by which to meet the share ownership guidelines. They are, however, expected to retain a specified percentage of the common shares of the Corporation that they acquire (after applicable tax withholdings) through option exercises and the vesting of restricted share units until they have met the share ownership guidelines. The Chief Executive Officer is currently expected to retain 100% of the common shares of the Corporation that he or she acquires and the other executive officers of the Corporation are expected to retain 50% of the common shares of the Corporation that they acquire, until they meet the share ownership guidelines.

14. DIRECTOR ORIENTATION AND CONTINUING EDUCATION

New directors receive orientation materials describing the Thomson Reuters business, its corporate governance structure and related policies and information. New directors also have meetings with the Chairman, any Deputy Chairman, any Lead Independent Director, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and other executive officers, including the heads of Thomson Reuters major businesses. Early in their tenure, new directors are provided with the opportunity to visit major facilities and meet with operating management.

The Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for confirming that procedures are in place and resources are made available to provide directors with appropriate continuing education opportunities. Directors may attend continuing education programs at Thomson Reuters expense.

- 11 -

15. BOARD ACCESS TO MANAGEMENT AND ADVISORS

The Board has complete access to members of Thomson Reuters management and directors are encouraged to raise any questions or concerns directly with management. The Board and its committees may invite any member of senior management, employee, outside advisor or other person to attend or report at any of their meetings.

In carrying out their duties, the Board and any of its committees may at any time retain an outside advisor at the expense of Thomson Reuters and have the authority to determine the advisor’s fees and other retention terms. Individual directors may retain an outside advisor at the expense of Thomson Reuters subject to notifying the Corporate Governance Committee in advance.

16. PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENTS

The Board, acting through the Corporate Governance Committee, annually reviews the effectiveness of the Board and each Board committee in fulfilling their responsibilities and duties. The form of the Corporate Governance Committee’s annual review and assessment may vary from year to year, but is designed to solicit constructive feedback on the performance of the Chairman, any Deputy Chairman, any Lead Independent Director, the chair of each of the Board committees and individual directors.

17. CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS

The Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. The Board expects all directors, officers and employees of Thomson Reuters to conduct themselves in accordance with the highest ethical standards and to adhere to the Code. Any waiver of the Code for directors or executive officers may only be made by the Board or one of its committees and will be disclosed by Thomson Reuters to the extent required by law, regulation or stock exchange rules and requirements.

18. PROHIBITION ON PERSONAL LOANS

Thomson Reuters does not extend or maintain credit, arrange for the extension of credit, or renew an extension of credit, in the form of a personal loan to or for any director or executive officer.

19. INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

Directors are indemnified by the Corporation to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations.

The Corporation maintains insurance for the benefit of its directors and officers against any liability incurred by them. The amount and terms of the insurance coverage are dependent upon prevailing market conditions and practices with the objective of adequately protecting directors and officers from such liability.

- 12 -

20. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Each director is required to inform the Board of any potential or actual conflict of interest he or she may have with Thomson Reuters. A director who has a conflict of interest in a matter before the Board or a committee must not attend any part of a meeting during which the matter is discussed or participate in any vote on the matter, except where the Board or the committee has expressly determined that it is appropriate for him or her to do so.

To avoid potential conflicts of interest, a member of senior management of the Corporation may not serve on the board or as a trustee of a company or institution that employs a director of the Corporation.
