Dear Sirs

Clarivate Analytics Plc (the Company) - Registration under the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act)

1 Background

1.1 In connection with the Registration Statement on Form F-1 (Registration No. 333- ) (as amended, the Registration Statement) filed by the Company today with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act), you have asked us to furnish our opinion as to the legality of the securities being registered under the Registration Statement.

1.2 The Registration Statement relates to the registration by the Company under the Securities Act of a public offering by the selling shareholders identified therein of ordinary shares of no par value in the Company, including shares which may be offered and sold upon the exercise of the option to purchase additional shares granted to the underwriters by the selling shareholders (the Shares).

1.3 In this opinion, "non-assessable" means, in relation to a Share, that the consideration for which the Company agreed to issue that Share (as applicable) has been paid in full to the Company, so that no further sum is payable to the Company by any holder of that Share in respect of the purchase price of that Share.
