the definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A (the&nbsp;&ldquo;<I>Proxy Statement</I>&rdquo;) filed by Certara,&nbsp;Inc. (the &ldquo;<I>Company</I>&rdquo;)
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the &ldquo;<I>SEC</I>&rdquo;) on April&nbsp;10, 2024, in connection with the Company&rsquo;s
2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the &ldquo;<I>Annual Meeting</I>&rdquo;) to be held on Tuesday, May&nbsp;21, 2024, at 9:00 a.m.&nbsp;Eastern

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The purpose of this Supplement is to correct an inadvertent error
in the Proxy Statement regarding the treatment of abstention and effect of broker non-votes on Proposals 2A and 2B&thinsp;&mdash;&thinsp;Approval
of Amendments to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as well as to incorporate additional clarifying changes.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The correction to the existing disclosure in the Proxy Statement is
set forth below under the heading &ldquo;Revisions to the Proxy Statement.&rdquo; Capitalized terms not defined in this Supplement have
the terms set forth in the Proxy Statement. Other than as set forth below, no other changes have been made to the Proxy Statement and
it continues to be in full force and effect as originally filed with the SEC and the Board of Directors of the Company continues to seek
the vote of Company stockholders on each of the proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting as recommended in the original filing.
From and after the date of this Supplement, any references to the &ldquo;Proxy Statement&rdquo; are to the Proxy Statement as amended
and supplemented by this Supplement. This Supplement should be read in conjunction with the Proxy Statement and the other proxy materials
previously made available to stockholders in connection with the Annual Meeting. If you have already voted your shares, you do not need
to vote again unless you would like to change or revoke your prior vote on any proposal.</P>

1 (Election of Class&nbsp;I Directors), you may vote &ldquo;For&rdquo; or &ldquo;Withhold&rdquo; with respect to each director nominee.
Only votes cast &ldquo;For&rdquo; a nominee will be counted in the election of directors. Votes cast to &ldquo;Withhold&rdquo; with respect
to one or more nominees will result in those nominees receiving fewer votes but will not count as a vote against the nominees. The individuals
who receive the highest number of votes are elected as directors up to the maximum number of directors to be elected at the meeting.
This means that <U>once a quorum is established, </U>the three nominees receiving the highest number of votes at the annual meeting will
be elected, even if these votes do not constitute a majority of the votes cast. Proxies may not be voted for more than three directors
and stockholders may not cumulate votes in the election of directors. <U>Votes that are &ldquo;Withheld&rdquo; with respect to one or
more nominees will result in those nominees receiving fewer votes but will not count as a vote &ldquo;Against&rdquo; the nominees.</U></P>
