Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On November 26, 2021, TPG Pace Solutions Corp., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands (“TPG Pace Solutions” or the “Company”) provided written notice to the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) of its intention to voluntarily withdraw the listing of its Class A ordinary shares from the NYSE and that, following the completion of its previously announced business combination (the “Business Combination”) with Vacasa Holdings LLC (“Vacasa”), it expects the Class A common stock of the surviving company, Vacasa, Inc. (“NewCo”), to be listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Nasdaq”). The shares of Class A common stock of NewCo are expected to commence trading on the Nasdaq the day after the closing of the Business Combination under the symbol “VCSA.”

 

The Nasdaq listing and NYSE delisting are subject to the closing of the Business Combination and fulfillment of all Nasdaq listing requirements. The closing of the Business Combination is subject to the approval of the Company’s shareholders and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.
