EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Registration Statement on Form S-8 relating to the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Equity Plan”), and the 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) of Dynatrace, Inc. (the “Registrant”) registers additional securities of the same class as other securities for which a registration statement filed on Form S-8 (File No. 333-232950) of the Registrant is effective.
The number of shares reserved under the Equity Plan is subject to an automatic increase or evergreen provision on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning on April 1, 2020 and continuing on each April 1 thereafter, by an amount equal to the lesser of: (a) 4% of the number of shares of the Registrant's Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding March 31; and (b) an amount determined by the Registrant’s board of directors.
The number of shares reserved and available for issuance under the ESPP is subject to an automatic increase or evergreen provision on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning on April 1, 2020 and continuing on each April 1 thereafter, by an amount equal to the lesser of: (a) 1% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock on the immediately preceding March 31; (b) 3,500,000 shares of Common Stock; and (c) such other amount as may be determined by the Registrant’s board of directors.
As of March 31, 2026, the Registrant had 294,784,552 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.
Accordingly, this Registration Statement registers an additional 11,791,382 shares of Common Stock that became available for grant and issuance under the Equity Plan pursuant to its evergreen provision, and an additional 2,947,845 shares of Common Stock that became available for grant and issuance under the ESPP pursuant to its evergreen provision, in both cases as of April 1, 2026.
The information contained in the Registrant’s Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-232950) relating to the Equity Plan and ESPP filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 1, 2019 is hereby incorporated by reference pursuant to General Instruction E, except for “Item 8.
