Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to TPG Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the offer and sale by certain stockholders of the Company (the “Selling Stockholders”) of an aggregate of 15,526,915 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, pursuant to the underwriting agreement, dated as of February 26, 2024 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), among the Company, the Selling Stockholders and the underwriters named therein.
In so acting, we have examined originals or copies (certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction) of (i) the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware; (ii) the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company; (iii) the registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 26, 2024, and the form of prospectus included therein; (iv) the prospectus supplement dated February 26, 2024 (the “Prospectus Supplement”), which forms a part of the Registration Statement; (v) the Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2023, among the Company, TPG Operating Group II, L.P. (“TOG II”), TPG OpCo Holdings, L.P., TPG Operating Group I, L.P., TPG Operating Group III, L.P. and the holders of common units of TOG II; and (vi) such corporate records, agreements, documents and other instruments, and such certificates or comparable documents of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Company, and have made such inquiries of such officers and representatives, as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinion hereinafter set forth.
In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. As to all questions of fact material to this opinion that have not been independently established, we have relied upon certificates or comparable documents of officers and representatives of the Company.
Based on the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications stated herein, we are of the opinion that the Shares are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
