immediately terminate and be forfeited in their entirety as of the Termination Date. Subject only to the Participant’s minimum entitlements under applicable employment or labor standards legislation, the Participant shall not be entitled to any damages or other compensation arising from or related to the forfeiture of this Award or any payment in respect thereof.


(c) Notwithstanding the terms of Section 2(b), if the Participant is terminated for Cause, otherwise engages in Cause or breaches the Restrictive Covenant Agreement attached hereto as Schedule A , all unvested RSUs, the number of Shares underlying vested RSUs and all dividends or Dividend Equivalents received in the two years prior to the date such activity occurred will immediately terminate, be forfeited or be repaid (or any combination thereof) as of the date such activity occurs. In the event the Participant has sold or otherwise transferred any vested Shares that are to be forfeited pursuant to this Section, the Participant shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such Shares as of the date such activity occurs, as determined by the Committee in its good faith discretion.


(d) Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 2, to the extent that the Participant is a party to an employment agreement with TPG [or covered by a separation policy of TPG], the terms of such employment agreement [or separation policy] shall control upon the Participant’s Termination of Services to the extent such terms address the treatment of RSUs with respect to the Participant’s Termination of Services. [This Award is not subject to, and shall not be superseded by, the terms of any separation policy of the Company.]


3. Deemed Acceptance .  The Participant shall have no rights related to this Award unless and until the Participant executes and returns this Agreement before the close of business on the Deemed Acceptance Date (shown above); provided, that, if the Participant has failed to execute and return this Agreement before the Deemed Acceptance Date, this Agreement will be deemed to have been accepted by the Participant, and the Participant will be deemed to have represented and certified that the Participant has complied with all of the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, effective as of the Deemed Acceptance Date, on the date that the Participant receives a payment in respect of a Dividend Equivalent or when the Participant requests the sale of Shares with respect to this Award.


4. Form and Timing of Payment of Vested Awards .


(a) Settlement Date .  Subject to RSUs vesting in accordance with Section 2 and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, the RSUs will be settled as soon as practicable following the applicable Vesting Date, but in no event later than March 15th of the year following the year in which the applicable Vesting Date occurs, by delivery to the Participant of payment with respect to such RSUs in the form of Shares.


(b) Withholding .  Subject to the Plan, the Company may require any individual entitled to receive a payment of an Award to remit to TPG prior to payment, an amount sufficient to satisfy any applicable federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding requirements (whether arising on the applicable Vesting Date, the settlement date or otherwise). TPG shall also have the right to deduct from all cash payments made to the Participant (whether or not such payment is made in connection with an Award) any applicable taxes required to be withheld with respect to such Award. If so required, no portion of this Award will be delivered to the Participant unless and until the Participant has remitted to TPG an amount sufficient to satisfy any required withholdings. Unless otherwise requested in writing at least three business days in advance of the applicable settlement date in a manner that is not prohibited by any blackout periods under the Company’s insider trading policies, the Company shall hold back a portion of this Award otherwise deliverable to the Participant to cover any required withholdings.  If Shares are used to pay all or a portion of such withholding tax obligation, the number of Shares that may be withheld, surrendered, or reduced shall be limited to the number of Shares which have value on the applicable Vesting Date equal to the aggregate amount of such


2


---




liabilities based on the greatest statutory withholding rates applicable to the Participant for federal, state, foreign, or local tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that may be utilized without creating adverse accounting treatment with respect to such Award, as determined by the Committee. Any fraction of a Share which would be required to satisfy such an obligation shall be rounded to the next whole Share and the remaining amount due shall be paid in cash to the Participant.


5. Dividends and Dividend Equivalents .  The Participant shall be entitled to Dividend Equivalents in respect of the RSUs that have not yet been settled (whether or not vested), and such Dividend Equivalents shall be paid in cash to the Participant as soon as reasonably practicable following the payment by TPG of the associated dividend (taking into consideration relevant legal and operational considerations).


6. Beneficiary Designation .  The Participant may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) to whom any benefit under this Agreement is to be paid in case of the Participant’s death before the Participant receives any of such benefit. Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the Company, and shall be effective only when delivered by the Participant in writing to the Company during the Participant’s lifetime. In the absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant’s death shall be paid to the Participant’s executor, administrator or  legal representative.


7. No Right to Continued Employment or Further Awards .  Neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall be construed as (i) giving the Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company and its Affiliates or (ii) giving the Participant any right to be reemployed by the Company and its Affiliates following any termination of employment. The termination of employment provisions in this Agreement only apply to the treatment of this Award as specified herein and shall not otherwise affect the Participant’s employment relationship. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute or create a contract of employment. The Company has granted this Award to the Participant in its sole discretion. This Award does not form part of the Participant’s employment contract, if any. Neither this Agreement nor the Plan confers on the Participant any right or entitlement to receive another Award, or any other similar award at any time in the future or in respect of any future period. This Award does not confer on the Participant any right or entitlement to receive compensation in any specific amount for any future fiscal year and does not diminish in any way the Company’s discretion to determine the amount, if any, of the Participant’s compensation.


8. Transferability .


(a) This Award shall not be transferable other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution, pursuant to a domestic relations order entered by a court of competent jurisdiction or to a Permitted Transferee for no consideration pursuant to the Plan or as permitted by the Committee. Any Award transferred shall be further transferable only by will, the laws of descent and distribution, pursuant to a domestic relations order entered by a court of competent jurisdiction, or, for no consideration, or upon consent of the Committee.


(b) Except as set forth in the Plan or as determined by the Committee, the Participant’s rights under the Plan shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant, or in the event of the Participant’s legal incapacity, the Participant’s legal guardian or representative.


9. Restrictive Covenants .  The Participant expressly acknowledges and agrees that as a condition of receiving this Award, the Participant will be bound by the Restrictive Covenants Agreement attached hereto as Schedule A , and that a breach of such agreement by the Participant may result in the Committee or TPG terminating this Award (whether or not vested),

The interpretation, performance and enforcement of this Award and this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

The Participant expressly acknowledges and agrees that as a condition of receiving this Award, the Participant will be bound by the provisions of Section 23.26 of the Plan regarding arbitration.


13. Award Subject to Plan .

(c) The Committee may terminate, amend, modify or suspend the Plan and amend or modify this Agreement; provided , however , that no termination, amendment, modification or suspension shall materially and adversely affect the Participant’s rights under this Agreement, without the Participant’s written consent.

Restrictive Covenants Agreement


This “ Agreement ” is effective as of the Grant Date set forth in the Award Agreement to which this Agreement is Schedule A and is entered into by and between the Company (on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates, together “ TPG ”) and the Covered Person (as defined below). Each capitalized term that is used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the TPG Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan.


1. Non-Compete .  The Covered Person agrees that TPG would likely suffer significant harm from the Covered Person’s competing with TPG during the period such Covered Person provides Services and for some period of time thereafter. Accordingly, the Covered Person agrees that while he or she provides Services and during the Restricted Period for the Covered Person, the Covered Person shall not (a) associate (directly or indirectly) as an employee, partner, officer or director (or pursuant to any other arrangement to provide services customarily performed by an employee, partner, officer or director), with any Competitor or any Competitor’s affiliates or (b) solicit, induce, persuade or entice (by written, oral or any other means), any Portfolio Company or prospective Portfolio Company or any investor or prospective investor in any Fund or any affiliate of any of the foregoing whose identity became known to such Covered Person in connection with such Covered Person’s provision of Services, to transact business with another Person or to reduce or refrain from doing any business with any Covered Entity, in each case unless (i) such Covered Person has advised the Company in writing in advance of such Covered Person’s desire to undertake such activities and the specific nature of such activities and (ii) the Company, in its sole discretion, has approved in writing such activities, subject to any reasonable conditions the Company may impose, including (x) the Company has received written assurances (that will be designed, among other things, to protect the goodwill, Confidential Information, investor and operating partner relationships and other important commercial interests) from the Competitor and Covered Person that are, in the Company’s sole discretion, applicable and adequate to protect the interests of the Covered Entities and (y) the Covered Person and the Competitor adhere to such assurances.


2. Confidentiality .  The Covered Person agrees that he or she shall not at any time disclose, without the prior written consent of the Company, any information (whether oral or written) with respect to, or any matter relating to, the Covered Entities, including trade secrets, proprietary information, and any and all reports, data, interpretations, forecasts, records, analyses, compilations, studies, pipeline information known to such Covered Person or other documents prepared by or provided to such Covered Person in connection with such Covered Person’s provision of Services or in connection with any existing or contemplated transaction or investment related activities of any Covered Entity (whether or not such information was prepared by or provided to such Covered Person in his or her capacity as a Covered Person or in connection with such Covered Person’s provision of Services) and Work Product (the “ Confidential Information ”); provided that the Covered Person may disclose any such Confidential Information to the extent (a) it has become generally available to the public through no breach by the Covered Person, (b) it may be required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state or national (including foreign) regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over the Covered Person, (c) it may be required or appropriate in response to any summons or subpoena or, in connection with any litigation or (d) it may be required in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to the Covered Person; and provided further that, in each case of potential disclosure under clauses (b) through (d), the Covered Person agrees to provide the Company with prompt written notice of such potential disclosure so that it may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy.

In making any such report, however, the Covered Person is not authorized to disclose communications with counsel that were made for the purpose of receiving legal advice, that contain legal advice or that are protected by the attorney work product or similar privilege. Furthermore, the Covered Person shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for disclosing a trade secret (A) in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, in each case, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law or (B) in a complaint or other document filed under seal in a lawsuit or proceeding. Notwithstanding this immunity from liability, the Covered Person acknowledges that the Covered Person may be held liable if he unlawfully accesses trade secrets by unauthorized means. The confidentiality provisions of this Agreement shall survive as to any Covered Person withdrawing or otherwise removed from the Company.


3. Employee Non-Solicitation .  While the Covered Person provides Services and for the Non-Solicitation Period, the Covered Person shall not (whether on the Covered Person’s own behalf or on behalf of any other person, whether directly or indirectly and whether or not for compensation) solicit for employment, hire or engage (or endeavor to solicit for employment, hire or engage) any person who is or was (as applicable) an employee, partner or consultant of a Covered Entity at the time of such solicitation for employment, hiring or engagement or at any time during the six months immediately prior to such solicitation for employment, hiring or engagement.

In consideration of the promises and undertakings of TPG in this Agreement, the Covered Person agrees that all Work Product of the Covered Person shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company (or other applicable Covered Entity as the Company may agree), and is hereby irrevocably assigned to the Company or its designee, regardless of whether (a) such Work Product was conceived, made, developed or worked on during regular hours of the Covered Person’s provision of Services or during time away from any such provision of Services, (b) the Work Product was made at the suggestion of a Covered Entity, or (c) the Work Product was reduced to drawing, written description, documentation, models or other tangible form. Without limiting the foregoing, the Covered Person acknowledges that all original works of authorship that are made by the Covered Person, solely or jointly with others, within the scope of the Covered Person’s Services, if any, and that are protectable by copyright law are “works made for hire,” as that term is defined in the U.S. Copyright Act (17 U.S.C., Section 101), and are therefore owned by the Company, from the time of creation. The Covered Person agrees to, and does hereby, transfer, and set over, to the Company or its designee, all of his or her rights, title and interests throughout the world in and to all Work Product, without the necessity of any further compensation, and agrees that the Company is entitled to obtain and hold in its own name all patents, copyrights and other rights in respect of all Work Product.

In addition, the Covered Person shall not be entitled to disclose, and use for his or her benefit, information regarding the track record of investment transactions with respect to any Covered Entity. Nothing set forth herein shall limit in any way the rights of the Company or its designee to the investment track record of the Covered Entities. “ Work Product ” shall include all ideas, works of authorship, inventions, business methods and other creations, whether or not patentable, copyrightable or subject to other intellectual property protection, that are made, conceived, developed or worked on in whole or in part by the Covered Person, whether alone or with others that relate in any manner whatsoever to the business, existing or anticipated, of the Covered Entities or any other business or research or development effort in which any Covered Entity engages. Work Product includes any material previously conceived, made, developed or worked on prior to the date of the Covered Person’s admission to the Company, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any material previously conceived, made, developed or worked on while the Covered Person provided Services prior to the date of the Covered Person’s admission to the Company.


6. Non-Publicity .  The Covered Person agrees that while providing Services and following termination, except in the course of the performance of the Covered Person’s duties and responsibilities, the Covered Person shall not prepare or assist any person or entity in the preparation of any books, articles, radio broadcasts, electronic communications, television or motion picture productions or other creations, concerning any Covered Entity or any of their respective businesses, current or former equity holders, directors, officers, employees, agents, clients, investors or any other person affiliated with them.


7. Scope .  The Covered Person acknowledges that he or she has carefully read and considered all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the restraints imposed upon him or her pursuant to this Agreement. The Covered Person agrees that said restraints are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of TPG, and that each and every one of the restraints is reasonable in respect to subject matter, length of time and geographic area.


8. Limitations .  If the provisions of this Agreement are ever deemed by a court to exceed the limitations permitted by applicable law, the Covered Person and TPG agree that such provisions shall be, and are, automatically reformed to the maximum limitations permitted by such law. The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and no breach of any provision of this Agreement, or any other claimed breach of contract or violation of law, shall operate to excuse the Covered Person’s obligation to fulfill the requirements of this paragraph 8.


9. Injunctive Relief .  It is impossible to measure in money the damages that will accrue to TPG if the Covered Person breaches any of the covenants provided in this Agreement. If the Covered Person breaches any such covenant, TPG shall be entitled to an injunction restraining the Covered Person from violating such covenant (without posting any bond). If TPG shall institute any action or proceeding to enforce any such covenant, the Covered Person hereby waives the claim or defense that TPG has an adequate remedy at law and agrees not to assert in any such action or proceeding with the claim or defense that TPG has an adequate remedy at law. The foregoing shall not prejudice TPG’s right to require the Covered Person to account for and pay over to TPG, and the Covered Person hereby agrees to account for and pay over to TPG, the compensation, profits, monies, accruals or other benefits derived or received by the Covered Person as a result of any transaction constituting a breach of any of the covenants provided in this Agreement.
