Description of Securities Registered Pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

The following description summarizes important terms of our capital stock. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of our certificate of incorporation (our “certificate of incorporation”) and our bylaws (our “bylaws”), each of which are incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Annual Report on Form 10-K to which this description is also an exhibit. As used in this description, “we,” “us,” “our,” and “TPG” mean TPG Inc.

Our authorized capital stock consists of 2,240,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), 100,000,000 shares of nonvoting Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“nonvoting Class A Common Stock”), 750,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Class B Common Stock” and together with Class A Common Stock and nonvoting Class A Common Stock, “Common Stock”), and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Preferred Stock”).

Voting. Generally holders of our Class A Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders and do not have the ability to cumulate votes for the election of directors. Holders of our Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock will vote together as a single class on all matters presented to our stockholders for their vote or approval, except as otherwise required by applicable law.

Dividends. Holders of our Class A Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends when and if declared by our Executive Committee, or, following the Sunset (as defined in our certificate of incorporation), our board of directors, out of funds legally available therefor, subject to any statutory or contractual restrictions on the payment of dividends and to any restrictions on the payment of dividends imposed by the terms of any outstanding Preferred Stock.

Dissolution and Liquidation. Upon our dissolution or liquidation or the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, after payment in full of all amounts required to be paid to creditors and to the holders of Preferred Stock having liquidation preferences, if any, the holders of our Class A Common Stock and nonvoting Class A Common Stock will be entitled to receive pro rata our remaining assets available for distribution, subject to the limited rights of the Class B Common Stock as described below.

No Preemptive Rights. Holders of our Class A Common Stock do not have preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights.

Issuance of Additional Class A Common Stock. We may issue additional shares of Class A Common Stock from time to time, subject to applicable provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Delaware law. We are obligated to issue Class A Common Stock or nonvoting Class A Common Stock (subject to the transfer and exchange restrictions set forth in the TPG Operating Group Limited Partnership Agreements and the Investor Rights Agreement) to holders who, upon our election, exchange their interests in TPG Operating Group I, L.P., TPG Operating Group II, L.P., and TPG Operating Group III, L.P. (each interest, a “Common Unit”) for shares of our Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis (unless we do not elect, in which case, such exchange will be satisfied for cash from a substantially concurrent public offering or private sale). Additionally, in the event of a redemption request by a holder of the Common Units, we (or our subsidiary) may, at our election, effect a direct exchange of cash from a substantially concurrent public offering or private sale (based on the closing price per share of the Class A Common Stock on the day before the pricing of such public offering or private sale (taking into account customary brokerage commissions or underwriting discounts actually incurred)), Class A Common Stock or nonvoting Class A Common Stock for Common Units in lieu of such a redemption. When a Common Unit is exchanged for a share of our Class A Common Stock, a corresponding share of our Class B Common Stock will be automatically cancelled for no additional consideration.

Voting. Holders of shares of nonvoting Class A Common Stock have no voting rights in respect of such shares other than those voting rights required by law. Nonvoting Class A Common Stock has the same rights and privileges as, and ranks equally and share ratably with, and is identical in all respects to the Class A Common Stock, except with respect to voting.

Dividends. Holders of our nonvoting Class A Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends when and if declared by our Executive Committee, or, following the Sunset, our board of directors, out of funds legally available therefor, subject to any statutory or contractual restrictions on the payment of dividends and to any restrictions on the payment of dividends imposed by the terms of any outstanding Preferred Stock.

Dissolution and Liquidation. Upon our dissolution or liquidation or the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, after payment in full of all amounts required to be paid to creditors and to the holders of Preferred Stock having liquidation preferences, if any, the holders of our Class A Common Stock and nonvoting Class A Common Stock will be entitled to receive pro rata our remaining assets available for distribution, subject to the limited rights of the Class B Common Stock as described below.

No Preemptive Rights. Holders of our nonvoting Class A Common Stock do not have preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights.

Issuance of Additional Nonvoting Class A Common Stock. We may issue additional shares of nonvoting Class A Common Stock from time to time, subject to applicable provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Delaware law.

Conversion. The nonvoting Class A Common Stock will not be convertible to Class A Common Stock until such time as they are transferred to a third party as and when permitted by the Investor Rights Agreement.

Voting. Holders of our Class B Common Stock are entitled to ten votes for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders prior to the Sunset. Holders of our voting Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock will vote together as a single class on all matters presented to our stockholders for their vote or approval, except as otherwise required by applicable law.

Dividends. Holders of the Class B Common Stock are not entitled to dividends in respect of their shares of Class B Common Stock.

Dissolution and Liquidation. Upon our dissolution or liquidation or the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, after payment in full of all amounts required to be paid to creditors and to the holders of Preferred Stock having liquidation preferences, if any, the holders of our Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to $0.001 per share. In connection with an exchange of a Common Unit for Class A Common Stock, the corresponding share of our Class B Common Stock will be automatically cancelled for no additional consideration.

No Preemptive Rights. Holders of our Class B Common Stock do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights. The Class B Common Stock is subject to redemption upon an exchange of a Common Unit for a share of Class A Common Stock.

Issuance of Additional Class B Common Stock. 

If any outstanding share of Class B Common Stock shall cease to be held by a holder of a Common Unit, such share shall automatically be transferred to us, shall no longer be outstanding, and all rights with respect to such share shall automatically cease and terminate.

No additional issuance of shares of Class B Common Stock will occur, except as provided under the TPG Operating Group Limited Partnership Agreements and Exchange Agreement, or in connection with a stock split, stock dividend, reclassification or similar transaction.

At any time we issue a share of our Class A Common Stock for cash, (i) the net proceeds received by us will be promptly transferred to the TPG Operating Group, and the TPG Operating Group partnerships will issue to us a Common Unit, or (ii) we will acquire a Common Unit from an existing holder. If at any time we issue a share of our Class A Common Stock pursuant to our equity plan or otherwise, we will contribute to the TPG Operating Group all of the proceeds that we receive (if any) and the TPG Operating Group partnerships will issue to us an equal number of its Common Units, having the same restrictions, if any, as are attached to the shares of Class A Common Stock issued under the plan. If at any time we issue a share of our Class A Common Stock upon an exchange of a Common Unit, we will retain such Common Unit. In the event that we issue other classes or series of our equity securities, the TPG Operating Group partnerships will issue to us an equal amount of equity securities of the TPG Operating Group partnerships with designations, preferences and other rights and terms that are substantially the same as our newly issued equity securities. Conversely, if we retire any shares of our Class A Common Stock (or our equity securities of other classes or series) for cash, the TPG Operating Group will, immediately prior to such retirement, redeem an equal number of Common Units (or its equity securities of the corresponding classes or series) held by us, upon the same terms and for the same price, as the shares of our Class A Common Stock (or our equity securities of such other classes or series) are retired. In addition, Common Units, as well as our Common Stock, will be subject to equivalent stock splits, dividends, reclassifications and other subdivisions. Lastly, holders of Common Units will be subject to certain restrictions on transfer as set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement and the limited partnership agreements for the TPG Operating Group partnerships.

Our board of directors has the authority to issue Preferred Stock in one or more classes or series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and related restrictions, including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, the right to elect directors, terms of redemption, any sinking fund for the redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any class or series, or the designation of the class or series, without the approval of our stockholders, subject to the consent of our Founders.

The authority of our board of directors to issue Preferred Stock without approval of our stockholders may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of our Common Stock. The issuance of Preferred Stock with voting and conversion rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our Common Stock, including the loss of voting control to others.

Delaware law does not require stockholder approval for any issuance of authorized shares. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings, to raise additional capital or to facilitate acquisitions.

One of the effects of the existence of unissued and unreserved Common Stock or Preferred Stock may be to enable our board of directors to issue shares to persons friendly to current management, which issuance could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby protect the continuity of our management and possibly deprive the stockholders of opportunities to sell their shares of Common Stock at prices higher than prevailing market prices.

Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could delay or prevent a change in control. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our board of directors and in the policies formulated by our board of directors and

to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of control. These provisions are primarily designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal or proxy fight. Such provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and, as a consequence, they also may inhibit fluctuations in the market price of our Class A Common Stock that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts. Such provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management or delaying or preventing a transaction that might benefit certain of our stockholders.

These provisions include:

Super Voting Stock. The Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock will vote together on all matters on which stockholders are entitled to vote, except as set forth in our certificate of incorporation or required by applicable law. However, prior to the Sunset, the Class B Common Stock are entitled to ten votes per share and the Class A Common Stock generally are entitled to one vote per share. Consequently, the holders of our Class B Common Stock will generally control matters brought to stockholders for a vote, including the election of directors.

Board Structure. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide for one class of directors each of whom will serve for one-year terms with annual elections, subject to the terms specified in the GP LLC LLCA. Upon the expiration of the initial term of office for each class of directors, each director in such class shall be elected for a term of one year and shall serve until a successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal, subject to the terms of the GP LLC LLCA, which provides that (i) each of our Founders and Mr. Winkelried will be re-elected by the Control Group at each annual meeting of stockholders until the Sunset, (ii) each of our management directors will be elected by the Control Group for at least two consecutive terms, and (iii) each of our independent directors will be re-elected by the Control Group at each annual meeting of stockholders (unless removed by a majority of the Control Group for cause) until the expansion of the Control Group to five members, at which point the independent directors will be eligible for re-election by a majority of the members of the Control Group until the Sunset. Prior to the Sunset, vacancies occurring on the board of directors, whether due to death, resignation, removal, retirement, disqualification or for any other reason, and newly created directorships resulting from an increase in the authorized number of directors, if any, shall be filled by the Control Group. Prior to the Sunset, the Control Group has the sole ability to elect the members of our board of directors.

Action by Written Consent; Special Meetings of Stockholders. Our certificate of incorporation provides that prior to the Sunset, stockholders may act by written consent instead of a meeting for any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders, subject to the rights of any holders of Preferred Stock. In addition, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that special meetings of stockholders may be called at any time, but only by the board of directors or any of the non-executive chairman, executive chairman or CEO.

Election and Removal of Directors. The Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) provides that stockholders are not entitled to the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors unless our certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Our certificate of incorporation does not expressly provide for cumulative voting. Subject to any preferred designation, and to the limitations and requirements set forth in the GP LLC LLCA, our directors may be removed with or without cause, but only upon the affirmative vote of holders of at least a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. In addition, any certificate of designation pursuant to which a particular series of Preferred Stock is issued may provide holders of that series of Preferred Stock with the right to elect additional directors. Pursuant to the GP LLC LLCA, the management directors cannot be removed without cause prior to the end of two consecutive one-year terms.

Authorized but Unissued Shares. The authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock are available for future issuance without stockholder approval, subject to any limitations imposed by the listing rules of Nasdaq. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved Common Stock and Preferred Stock could make more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise. See “—Preferred Stock” and “—Authorized but Unissued Capital Stock” above.

Business Combinations with Interested Stockholders. In general, Section 203 of the DGCL, an anti-takeover law, prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination, such as a merger, with a person or group owning 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock, which person or group is considered an interested stockholder under the DGCL, for a period of three years following the date the person became an

interested stockholder, unless (with certain exceptions) the business combination or the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder is approved in a prescribed manner.

We elected in our certificate of incorporation that we are not subject to Section 203. However, our certificate of incorporation contains provisions that have the same effect as Section 203, except that they provide that GP LLC, affiliates of GP LLC, and their respective direct and indirect permitted transferees (other than TPG or any of our direct and indirect subsidiaries) are not be deemed to be “interested stockholders,” regardless of the percentage of our voting stock owned by them, and accordingly are not subject to such restrictions.

Corporate Opportunities. Our certificate of incorporation provides that we have waived certain corporate opportunities as identified in the GP LLC LLCA, such that GP LLC and the other persons specified therein shall not be liable to TPG, our affiliates or our stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty as a stockholder or director of TPG from pursuit of such opportunities.

Advance Notice Provisions. Our bylaws require stockholders seeking to nominate persons for election as directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, or to bring other business before an annual or special meeting (other than a proposal submitted under Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, which must be submitted in accordance with such rule), to provide timely notice in writing. A stockholder’s notice to our corporate secretary must be in proper written form and must set forth certain information, as required under our bylaws, related to the stockholder giving the notice, the beneficial owner (if any) on whose behalf the nomination is made as well as their control persons and information about the proposal or nominee for election to the board of directors.

Exclusive forum. Our certificate of incorporation provides that, unless we consent in writing to an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for any (i) derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (ii) action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty or other wrongdoing by any current or former director, officer, employee, agent or stockholder to us or our stockholders, (iii) action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, our certificate of incorporation or our bylaws or as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or (iv) action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the law of the State of Delaware. Our certificate of incorporation also provides that the foregoing exclusive forum provision does not apply to actions brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or any other claim or cause of action for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction.

Additionally, our certificate of incorporation also provides that the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any action asserting a claim arising under the Securities Act, or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. However, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits asserting a claim arising under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; accordingly, we cannot be certain that a court would enforce such provision. Pursuant to the Exchange Act, claims arising thereunder must be brought in federal district courts of the United States of America.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in any shares of our capital stock shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the forum provision in our certificate of incorporation. In any case, stockholders will not be deemed to have waived (and cannot waive) compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions in other companies’ certificates of incorporation has been challenged in legal proceedings, and it is possible that a court could find these types of provisions to be inapplicable or unenforceable. Our certificate of incorporation also provides that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock will be deemed to have notice of and consented to this choice of forum provision. These exclusive forum provisions may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against our directors and officers.

In addition, certain provisions of the Investor Rights Agreement could have the effect of deterring or facilitating a control transaction.

Our bylaws provide indemnification for our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, subject to certain exceptions contained in our bylaws. We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and officers (as defined under Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act) that may, in some cases, be broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained under Delaware law. In addition, as permitted by Delaware law, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws include provisions that eliminate the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages resulting from breaches of certain fiduciary duties as a director. The effect of this provision is to restrict our rights and the rights of our stockholders in derivative suits to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of fiduciary duties as a director, except that a director will be personally liable for:

•any breach of his duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;

•acts or omissions not in good faith, or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

•unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware; or

•any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit; or

•improper distributions to stockholders.

These provisions may be held not to be enforceable for violations of the federal securities laws of the United States.
