ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

This proxy statement (this “Proxy Statement”) is being furnished to the stockholders of Texas Pacific Land Corporation (the “Company,” “TPL,” “we,” “our” or “us”) in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”). The proxies are for use at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company scheduled to be held on November 8, 2024, at 1:00 p.m. Central time (including any adjournment, postponement or continuation thereof, the “Annual Meeting”) at the Omni Dallas Hotel, 555 South Lamar Street, Dallas, Texas 75202.

Your vote is extremely important no matter how many shares you own. We hope you will attend the Annual Meeting. However, whether or not you expect to attend the Annual Meeting in person, please promptly vote your shares by following the instructions on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or your proxy card or voting instruction form, as applicable.

The Company consummated its corporate reorganization from a trust to a corporation (the “Corporate Reorganization”) on January 11, 2021. The trust, known as Texas Pacific Land Trust (the “Trust”) from its inception in 1888 until the Corporate Reorganization, was reorganized into a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Delaware and named Texas Pacific Land Corporation. Any references in this Proxy Statement to the Company, TPL, we, our or us with respect to periods prior to January 11, 2021 refer to the Trust, and references to periods on that date and thereafter refer to Texas Pacific Land Corporation.

The proxy materials were first sent or made available to stockholders on or about September 24, 2024.

THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE “QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS” FORMAT BELOW IS FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE AND INCLUDES ONLY A SUMMARY OF CERTAIN INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT. YOU SHOULD READ THIS ENTIRE PROXY STATEMENT CAREFULLY.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT OUR ANNUAL MEETING

Why am I receiving these proxy materials?

You are receiving these proxy materials because the Board is soliciting your proxy to vote at the Annual Meeting. This Proxy Statement summarizes the information you need to vote at the Annual Meeting. You do not need to attend the Annual Meeting to vote your shares.

Why did I receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?

This year, we are using the Internet as the primary means of delivering proxy materials to our stockholders. We are sending a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice of Internet Availability”) to our stockholders of record with instructions on how to access the proxy materials online at www.proxyvote.com. This Proxy Statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Annual Report”) are also included in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which you can access electronically at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, and are also available on the Company’s corporate website at www.TexasPacific.com.

Stockholders may follow the instructions in the Notice of Internet Availability to elect to receive future proxy materials in print by mail or electronically by email. We encourage stockholders to take advantage of the availability of the proxy materials online to help reduce the environmental impact of our annual meetings and reduce TPL’s printing and mailing costs.

What are the matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting and what are the Board’s voting recommendations?

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders as of the Record Date (as defined below) will be asked to vote on the following matters:

TABLE OF CONTENTS

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT OUR ANNUAL MEETING

The proxy solicitation materials are being sent or made available to stockholders as of the Record Date. As of such date, the Company knows of no other matters to be submitted at the Annual Meeting.

Who may vote at the Annual Meeting?

Holders of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), as of the close of business on September 13, 2024 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, 22,978,341 shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote. Our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) prohibits cumulative voting in the election of directors.

How can I attend the Annual Meeting?

The Annual Meeting will be held on November 8, 2024 at 1:00 p.m. Central time, at the Omni Dallas Hotel, 555 South Lamar Street, Dallas, Texas 75202. Only our stockholders of record as of the Record Date and invited guests of the Company will be permitted to attend the Annual Meeting. In order to be admitted to the Annual Meeting, you must present a government-issued form of picture identification. If you have requested to receive proxy materials by mail, your proxy card enclosed with this Proxy Statement will ask you to indicate if you intend to attend the Annual Meeting; please complete that section so that we may plan accordingly. If you are a stockholder of record, your name will be checked against our list of stockholders of record on the Record Date. If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and the proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker, bank or nominee, which is considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record. As a result, your name does not appear on our list of stockholders. If your Common Stock is held in “street name,” in order to be admitted to the Annual Meeting, in addition to a voting instruction form and government-issued form of picture identification, you should bring with you a letter or account statement showing that you were the beneficial owner of the Common Stock as of the Record Date.

What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner in “street name”?

Most of our stockholders hold their shares through a broker, bank or other nominee rather than directly in their own name. As summarized below, there are some distinctions between shares held of record and those owned beneficially.

Stockholder of Record. If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, you are considered, with respect to such shares, the stockholder of record, and the proxy materials are being provided directly to you by us. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to vote in person at the meeting or to grant your voting proxy directly to us.

Beneficial Owner. If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and the proxy materials are being provided to you by your broker, bank or other nominee, which is considered, with respect to such shares, the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner of shares, you are invited to attend the Annual Meeting; however, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a written proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee. For more information on how you may vote your shares, see “If I am a beneficial owner, how do I vote?” below.

If I am a beneficial owner, how do I vote?

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, you will receive instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee describing how to vote your shares. As the beneficial owner of your shares, you are entitled to direct your broker, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares. You may instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote by completing the voting instruction form provided to you by your broker, bank or other nominee. You may also vote by telephone or via the Internet if your broker, bank or other nominee makes such methods available, in which case applicable instructions will be provided to you by your broker, bank or other nominee.

How do I vote my shares in person at the Annual Meeting?

First, you must satisfy the requirements for admission to the Annual Meeting. Then, if you are a stockholder of record, you may vote by ballot at the Annual Meeting. If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you may vote shares held in “street

name” at the Annual Meeting only if you bring to the Annual Meeting a signed proxy from the record holder (your broker, bank or other nominee) giving you the right to vote the shares, which must be submitted with your ballot at the Annual Meeting. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we encourage you to vote in advance so that your vote will be counted in case you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting, as well as to facilitate the tabulation of votes.

How do I vote my shares without attending the Annual Meeting?

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote by granting a proxy using any of the following methods:

•

By Internet — By submitting your proxy via the Internet at www.proxyvote.com.

•

By Telephone — If you have requested to receive proxy materials by mail, by following the telephone voting instructions included on the enclosed proxy card.

•

By Mail — If you have requested to receive proxy materials by mail, by completing, signing and dating the enclosed proxy card where indicated, and by mailing or otherwise returning the proxy card in the envelope provided to you. You should sign your name exactly as it appears on the proxy card. If you are signing in a representative capacity (for example, as guardian, executor, trustee, custodian, attorney or officer of a corporation), indicate your name and title or capacity.

Internet and telephone voting facilities will close at 10:59 p.m. (Central time) on November 7, 2024 for the voting of shares held by stockholders of record. Mailed proxy cards should be returned in the envelope provided to you with your proxy card and must be received by November 7, 2024.

Your vote is important, and we strongly encourage you to vote your shares by following the instructions provided on the Notice of Internet Availability or your proxy card. Please vote promptly.

If your shares are held in “street name,” your broker, bank or other nominee should give you instructions for voting your shares. You may be able to vote via the Internet, by telephone or by mail by submitting a voting instruction form to your broker, bank or other nominee by the deadline indicated in such voting instruction form.

The Board has designated our Chief Executive Officer, Tyler Glover, and our Senior Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel, Micheal Dobbs, and each or either of them, as proxies to vote the shares of Common Stock at the Annual Meeting.

How can I ask questions at the Annual Meeting?

You may ask questions relating to any matter being considered at the Annual Meeting in person at the Annual Meeting or by submitting your questions in advance by email to AnnualMeetingTPL@texaspacific.com until 11:59 p.m. Central time on November 7, 2024. The question and answer session will be conducted in accordance with the Rules of Conduct of the Annual Meeting. These Rules of Conduct will be posted on the investor relations page of the Company’s corporate website prior to the Annual Meeting and may include certain procedural requirements. We will endeavor to respond at the Annual Meeting to questions that are submitted in accordance with the Rules of Conduct. We may not be able to answer every question submitted, in which case, we may address unanswered questions with the stockholder submitting the question after the Annual Meeting.

What constitutes a quorum?

A majority of the voting power of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting must be present, in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting in order to have a quorum for the transaction of business. If there is no quorum, the Annual Meeting may be adjourned to a subsequent date for the purpose of obtaining a quorum. As of the Record Date, 22,978,341 shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding.

The independent inspector of elections will determine whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. If you are a beneficial owner of shares of Common Stock and you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares on any of the proposals, and your broker, bank or other nominee submits a proxy with respect to your shares on a matter with respect to which discretionary voting is permitted (as discussed below), your shares will be counted as present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists. In addition, stockholders of record who are present at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy will be counted as present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists, whether or not such holders abstain from voting on any or all of the proposals.

Texas Pacific Land Corporation | Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT OUR ANNUAL MEETING

How many votes are required to approve each proposal?

Proposal 1: Directors will be elected by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes (if any) will have no effect on the election of directors. The Company’s Second Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) provide for a “majority vote policy.” Under this policy, any nominee for director in an uncontested election who does not receive a majority of the votes cast and is an incumbent director is required to promptly tender his or her resignation, subject to acceptance by the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will make a recommendation to the Board as to whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation or whether other action should be taken. The Board will then act on the tendered resignation, taking into account the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s recommendation, and publicly disclose its decision regarding the tendered resignation within ninety (90) days from the date of the certification of the election results. A director who tenders his or her resignation will not participate in the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee or the decision of the Board with respect to his or her resignation.

Proposal 2: Approval of executive compensation (on a non-binding advisory basis) requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of our Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on such proposal. If your shares are represented at the Annual Meeting but you “ABSTAIN” from voting on Proposal 2, the abstention will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. Broker non-votes (if any) will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Because your vote on this matter is advisory, it will not be binding on the Company or the Board. However, the Compensation Committee will review the voting results and take them into consideration when making future decisions regarding executive compensation.

Proposal 3: Ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of our Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on such proposal. If your shares are represented at the Annual Meeting but you “ABSTAIN” from voting on Proposal 3, the abstention will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. Because brokers have discretionary authority to vote on this proposal, broker non-votes are not applicable to this proposal.

Proposal 4: Approval of an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to give holders of 25% of the Company’s Common Stock the right to request a special meeting requires the affirmative vote of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote on the matter. Abstentions and broker non-votes (if any) will have the effect of a vote “AGAINST” this proposal.

Proposal 5: Approval of the non-binding stockholder proposal regarding an amendment to the Company’s Clawback Policy requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of our Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on such proposal. If your shares are represented at the Annual Meeting but you “ABSTAIN” from voting on Proposal 5, the abstention will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. Broker non-votes (if any) will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Because your vote on this matter is advisory, it will not be binding on the Company or the Board.

Proposal 6: Approval of the non-binding stockholder proposal regarding stockholders’ ability to act by written consent requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of our Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on such proposal. If your shares are represented at the Annual Meeting but you “ABSTAIN” from voting on Proposal 6, the abstention will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. Broker non-votes (if any) will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Because your vote on this matter is advisory, it will not be binding on the Company or the Board.

Proposal 7: Approval of the non-binding stockholder proposal to prohibit the renomination of any director who fails to receive a majority vote requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of our Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on such proposal. If your shares are represented at the Annual Meeting but you “ABSTAIN” from voting on Proposal 7, the abstention will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. Broker non-votes (if any) will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Because your vote on this matter is advisory, it will not be binding on the Company or the Board.

What is a broker non-vote?

A broker non-vote occurs when a broker, bank or other nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the broker, bank or nominee does not have discretionary voting power for that particular item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Under applicable rules that govern brokers, banks and other nominees who are voting with respect to shares held in street name, brokers, banks and other nominees ordinarily have the discretion to vote on “routine” matters, but not on “non-routine” matters.

Texas Pacific Land Corporation | Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT OUR ANNUAL MEETING

The vote on Proposals 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 7 are considered “non-routine.” Accordingly, beneficial owners who do not provide voting instructions to their brokers, banks or other nominees on these proposals will not have their shares voted with respect to such proposals. Proposal 3 constitutes a “routine” proposal. Accordingly, brokers, banks and other nominees that do not receive voting instructions from beneficial owners may vote on such proposal in their discretion.

May I change my vote or revoke my proxy?

Yes. If you are a stockholder of record, you may change your vote or revoke any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation at any time before its use by:

•

Delivering written notice of the revocation to the Company’s Secretary at 1700 Pacific Avenue, Suite 2900, Dallas, Texas, 75201;

•

Delivering a duly executed proxy bearing a later date than the proxy that you wish to revoke;

•

Submitting a later dated proxy over the telephone or Internet in accordance with the instructions on the enclosed proxy card; or

•

Attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

If you are the beneficial owner of shares held through a broker, bank or other nominee, then you must follow the specific instructions, including applicable deadlines, provided to you by your broker, bank or other nominee to change or revoke any instructions you have already provided to your broker, bank or other nominee. If you have obtained a voting instruction form from your broker, bank or other nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares, you may change your vote by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person if you provide a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee.

Attending the Annual Meeting in and of itself will not constitute a revocation of a proxy.

What happens if I return a proxy card but do not specify how I want my shares voted?

If you are a stockholder of record who returns a signed proxy card that does not specify how you want to vote your shares on one or more proposals, the proxies designated on the proxy card will vote your shares for each proposal as to which you did not provide any voting instructions, and such shares will be voted in the following manner:

•

Proposal 1 — FOR the six (6) director nominees listed in Proposal 1;

•

Proposal 2 — FOR the approval, by non-binding advisory vote, of the executive compensation paid to our named executive officers;

•

Proposal 3 — FOR the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024;

•

Proposal 4 — FOR the approval of an amendment to Certificate of Incorporation to give holders of 25% of the Common Stock the right to request a special meeting;

•

Proposal 5 — AGAINST the non-binding stockholder proposal regarding an amendment to the Company’s Clawback Policy;

•

Proposal 6 — AGAINST the non-binding stockholder proposal regarding stockholders’ ability to act by written consent; and

•

Proposal 7 — AGAINST the non-binding stockholder proposal regarding the renomination of directors.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and do not provide voting instructions on one or more proposals, your broker, bank or other nominee may be unable to vote your shares on all of the proposals other than Proposal 3. See “What is a broker non-vote?” above.

What if I receive more than one set of proxy materials from the Company?

If your shares are held in more than one account, you will receive more than one Notice of Internet Availability (or, if you have requested to receive proxy materials by mail, more than one proxy card), and in that case, you can and are urged to

Texas Pacific Land Corporation | Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT OUR ANNUAL MEETING

vote all of your shares by following the instructions on each Notice of Internet Availability (or, if applicable, proxy card) you receive. Only your latest dated proxy for each account will count. Please sign each proxy card exactly as your name or names appear on the proxy card. For joint accounts, each owner should sign the proxy card. When signing as an executor, administrator, attorney, trustee, guardian or other representative, please print your full name and title on the proxy card.

How may I obtain a stockholder list?

A list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, for a period of at least ten (10) days ending on the day before the date of the Annual Meeting during ordinary business hours at the Company’s offices at 1700 Pacific Avenue, Suite 2900, Dallas, TX 75201.

Where can I find the voting results of the meeting?

We plan to publish the voting results in a Current Report on Form 8-K, which we expect to file with the SEC within four business days following the end of the Annual Meeting.

How are proxies being solicited?

Proxies may be solicited by certain of the Company’s directors, officers and administrative personnel, without additional compensation, in person or by telephone, e-mail or facsimile. In addition, the Company has engaged Innisfree M&A Incorporated (“Innisfree”) as a paid solicitor in connection with the Annual Meeting. The anticipated cost of such service is approximately $100,000. The cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by the Company. The Company expects to reimburse brokerage firms, banks, custodians and other persons representing beneficial owners of shares of Common Stock for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in forwarding solicitation material to such beneficial owners.

What is “householding” and will it apply to me?

Some banks, brokers and other record holders use the practice of “householding” notices, proxy statements and annual reports. “Householding” is the term used to describe the practice of delivering a single set of notices, proxy statements and annual reports to any household at which two or more stockholders reside if a company reasonably believes the stockholders are members of the same family. This procedure reduces the volume of duplicate information stockholders receive and reduces a company’s printing and mailing costs. The Company will promptly deliver an additional copy of any such document to any stockholder who submits a request, in writing or orally, to receive additional copies. Alternatively, if you share an address with another stockholder and have received multiple copies of our notices, proxy statements and annual reports, you may contact us to request delivery of a single copy of these materials. Any requests for additional or single copies should be directed to Investor Relations at 1700 Pacific Avenue, Suite 2900, Dallas, Texas, 75201 or by calling (214) 969-5530.

Are stockholders entitled to dissenters’ rights of appraisal in connection with any proposals?

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Certificate of Incorporation, stockholders are not entitled to any appraisal or similar rights of dissenters with respect to any of the proposals to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting.

What is the deadline for receipt of director nominations and stockholder proposals to be presented at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders?

In order for any stockholder proposal submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 (“Rule 14a-8”) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to be included in the Company’s Proxy Statement to be issued in connection with the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, such stockholder proposal generally must be received by the Company no later than May 27, 2025. If we hold our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders on a date that is more than 30 days from the anniversary of the Annual Meeting, any stockholder proposal must be received a reasonable time before we begin to print and send our proxy materials. Any such stockholder proposal submitted, including any accompanying supporting statement, may not exceed 500 words, as per Rule 14a-8(d) of the Exchange Act.

Any director nominations or stockholder proposals submitted outside the processes of Rule 14a-8, which a stockholder intends to bring forth at the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, will be untimely unless it is received

PROPOSAL 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Board currently consists of ten (10) directors and is divided into three (3) classes. At the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders, the Company’s stockholders approved, at the recommendation of the Board, an amendment to the then-current Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to declassify the Board. The declassification of the Board is being phased in over a three-year period. Commencing in 2023, directors standing for election are elected for new terms of one year.

At the Annual Meeting, the directors designated as “Class I” and “Class III” directors are standing for re-election for a term of one year expiring at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, subject to earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. The directors designated as “Class II” directors have terms expiring at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders. The division of directors into classes will terminate at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, with the expiration of the term of the “Class II” directors. All directors will be elected for one-year terms thereafter.

Each of Barbara J. Duganier, a Class I director, Tyler Glover, a Class I director, Karl F. Kurz, a Class I director, Robert Roosa, a Class III director, Murray Stahl, a Class III director, and Marguerite Woung-Chapman, a Class III director, has been nominated by the Board for election at the Annual Meeting. Each nominee has consented to being named as a nominee for election as a director and has agreed to serve if elected; however, if a nominee should withdraw his or her name from consideration for any reason or otherwise become unable to serve before the Annual Meeting, the Board reserves the right to substitute another person as nominee, and the proxies named in this Proxy Statement will vote for any substitute nominated by the Board.

On June 11, 2020, the Trust and certain of its stockholders entered into a stockholders’ agreement, which was later assigned to the Company (the “Stockholders’ Agreement”).

Pursuant to the Stockholders’ Agreement, Mr. Stahl was appointed to the Board as a designee of Horizon Kinetics and Mr. Oliver was appointed to the Board as a designee of SoftVest. Pursuant to the Stockholders’ Agreement, each of Mr. Stahl and Mr. Oliver provided an executed conditional resignation letter pursuant to which he irrevocably offered to resign from his position as a director of the Board and from any and all committees of the Board upon certain circumstances (see section below, “Cooperation Agreement,” explaining that the resignation letters are now considered withdrawn and of no further effect).

Cooperation Agreement

On July 28, 2023, the Company and the Investor Group entered into a Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, (i) Mr. Stahl, Ms. Woung-Chapman and Mr. Roosa were, subject to the approval of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, nominated by the Company for election at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, (ii) the resignation letters submitted by Messrs. Stahl and Oliver pursuant to the Stockholders’ Agreement (as described above) were considered withdrawn and of no further effect, (iii) the Investor Group agreed to vote or cause to be voted all of the equity securities of the Company over which the Investor Group had direct or indirect voting control (a) for the election of the three nominees recommended by the Board for election at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders (Mr. Stahl, Ms. Woung-Chapman and Mr. Roosa) and against any other director nominee not recommended by the Board, (b) for proposals 2 (the advisory vote on the Company’s executive compensation) and 3 (the ratification of the appointment by the Board of the independent registered public accounting firm) at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, and (c) in accordance with the recommendation of the majority of the Board in respect of any stockholder proposal submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 at the 2023 annual meeting of

PROPOSAL 2

NON-BINDING ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Pursuant to Section 14A(a)(1) of the Exchange Act, we are asking our stockholders to vote to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the executive compensation paid to our Named Executive Officers (as defined herein) as disclosed in this Proxy Statement.

We believe that our executive compensation programs must be closely linked to our stockholders’ interests, and we welcome our stockholders’ input in this area. During 2023, we contacted some of our largest stockholders to discuss our executive compensation program. In 2024, we reached out to stockholders representing 48% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock and held meetings with stockholders representing 32% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock (measured as of September 3, 2024) to consider their perspectives on various issues. Independent members of our Board participated in and led each of these meetings with stockholders. The participating Board members were joined in these meetings by one or more of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel, and Vice President of Finance and Investor Relations. Feedback from our stockholder meetings was discussed with management and relayed to the full Board and the relevant committees of the Board. After careful consideration of the feedback received, our Board and management team have taken various actions to enhance our compensation policies. For discussion of such actions, see the “Stockholder Engagement and Communications with Directors” section of this Proxy Statement.

Our compensation programs are intended to attract, motivate, and retain the individuals we need to drive business success. Beginning in December 2021, we have been able to incorporate equity compensation into our compensation packages, which previously had consisted solely of cash, paid in the form of base salary and bonus. Please read the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Summary Compensation Table and the other related tables and accompanying narrative for a detailed description of the fiscal year 2023 compensation of our Named Executive Officers. We believe that the 2023 compensation of each of our Named Executive Officers was reasonable and appropriate and was aligned with the Company’s 2023 results.

The vote on this resolution is not intended to address any specific element of compensation; rather, the vote relates to the overall compensation of our Named Executive Officers. This vote is advisory only and is not binding on the Company or the Board. Although the vote is non-binding, our Board values the opinions of our stockholders and the Board and the Compensation Committee will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our Named Executive Officers.

At the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, a majority of the votes cast voted in favor of holding an advisory vote to approve executive compensation every year. The Board considered these voting results and decided to adopt a policy providing for an annual advisory stockholder vote to approve our executive compensation. The next stockholder advisory vote to approve executive compensation is expected to occur at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, and the next advisory vote to determine the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation is expected to occur at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders.

Approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal. Abstentions will have the same effect as votes “AGAINST” this proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

Accordingly, we ask our stockholders to vote in favor of the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the Company’s stockholders approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the executive compensation paid to the Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.”

PROPOSAL 3

RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board has selected Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, subject to ratification by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting. Deloitte & Touche LLP has been our independent registered public accounting firm since April 2021. A representative of Deloitte & Touche LLP is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, will have the opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so, and is expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, the Board is submitting the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP to our stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice and because we value our stockholders’ views on the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

In the event our stockholders fail to ratify the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP, it will be considered a recommendation to the Board and the Audit Committee to consider the selection of a different firm. Even if the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP is ratified, the Audit Committee may, in its discretion, select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders. More information about our independent registered public accounting firm is available under the heading “Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm” on page 77 below.

Approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal. Abstentions will have the same effect as votes “AGAINST” this proposal. Because brokers have discretionary authority to vote on this proposal, broker non-votes are not applicable to this proposal.

PROPOSAL 4

APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO GIVE HOLDERS OF 25% OF THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK THE RIGHT TO REQUEST A SPECIAL MEETING

We are seeking stockholder approval to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to allow one or more stockholders who own at least 25% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and who satisfy certain procedures to require that the Company call a special meeting of the stockholders (the “Special Meeting Right Amendment”). Stockholders do not presently have the ability to require that the Company call a special meeting of stockholders. If the Special Meeting Right Amendment is approved by the stockholders, the Certificate of Incorporation will provide that the Company be required to call a special meeting of the stockholders upon the written request of one or more stockholders who:

•

own shares representing 25% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; and

•

comply with such additional procedures set forth in the Bylaws.

The Board has adopted the Special Meeting Right Amendment, subject to stockholder approval, and declared it to be advisable and in the best interests of the Company.

Purpose and Effect of the Proposed Amendment

The Special Meeting Right Amendment is a result of the Board’s review of the Company’s corporate governance principles and its ongoing engagement with investors. In developing the Special Meeting Right Amendment, the Board carefully considered the implications of amending the Certificate of Incorporation to allow stockholders to request that the Company call a special meeting.

The Board recognizes that providing stockholders a special meeting right is viewed by many of our investors as an important corporate governance practice. However, special meetings of the stockholders can cause the Company to incur substantial expenses and can be potentially disruptive to its business operations and to long-term stockholder interests. Accordingly, the Board believes that special meetings of the stockholders should be extraordinary events that should not be held in close proximity to an annual meeting or when the matters proposed to be addressed have been recently considered or are planned to be considered at another meeting. If the Special Meeting Right Amendment is adopted and implemented, the Board would continue to have the ability to call special meetings of the stockholders in other instances when, in the exercise of its fiduciary obligations, it determines appropriate.

In light of these considerations, the Board believes that the Special Meeting Right Amendment strikes an appropriate balance between enhancing stockholder rights and adequately protecting stockholder interests to provide that stockholders who satisfy a 25% ownership threshold and comply with certain additional procedures and requirements have the ability to request that the Company call a special meeting. In establishing a 25% ownership threshold, the Board considered, among other things, investor feedback, peer practices, the Company’s market capitalization and the concentration of ownership in the Company’s Common Stock.

Related Changes to the Bylaws

The Board plans to adopt corresponding amendments to the Bylaws (subject to the Special Meeting Right Amendment being approved by our stockholders) to allow one or more stockholders who own at least 25% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock to require that the Company call a special meeting of the stockholders and include, among other things, provisions setting forth the procedural and informational requirements described below. The Board believes that these requirements play an important role in protecting the interests of the Company and its stockholders by deterring abuse of the right to call a special meeting. Among other things, these procedural and informational requirements are designed to ensure that the Company avoids duplicative and unnecessary special meetings. In addition, they provide the Company with adequate information regarding the identity of the requesting stockholder(s) and the matters proposed to be addressed at the special meeting. These requirements include the following:

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROPOSAL 4 APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO GIVE HOLDERS OF 25% OF THE

COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK THE RIGHT TO REQUEST A SPECIAL MEETING

•

A special meeting request must set forth information regarding the business proposed to be conducted at the special meeting and information regarding the requesting stockholder(s) that is similar to the information currently required by the current Bylaws in order for a stockholder to nominate directors or propose business at our annual meetings.

•

The requesting stockholders must own 25% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock from the date of the request through the date of the special meeting.

•

The Company will not be required to call a special meeting of stockholders if:

•

The requesting stockholder(s) do not comply with the procedures set forth in the Bylaws;

•

The business requested to be conducted at the special meeting is not a proper subject for stockholder action under applicable law;

•

The business requested to be conducted at the special meeting is not included in the written request submitted to the Company;

•

Notice of the requested special meeting is received during the period commencing 90 days prior to the anniversary date of the prior year’s annual meeting of stockholders and ending on the date of the final adjournment of the next annual meeting of stockholders;

•

An identical or substantially similar item of business was presented at another meeting of stockholders held within 90 days prior to the Company receiving notice of the requested meeting;

•

The Board has called or calls for an annual or special meeting of stockholders to be held within 90 days after the Secretary receives the request for the special meeting and the Board determines that the business of such meeting includes an identical or substantially similar item of business; or

•

The requesting stockholder(s) revoke their request(s) such that the remaining request(s), if any, represent stockholders owning less than the 25% threshold.

•

The business conducted at any special meeting requested by stockholders will be limited to the purposes stated in the request for the special meeting, but the Board may include additional matters for consideration.

Additional Information

The description of the Special Meeting Right Amendment above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Special Meeting Right Amendment, which is attached as Annex A to this Proxy Statement. In addition, the text of the Bylaws amendment, which may be further amended from time to time in the Board’s discretion, is attached as Annex B to this Proxy Statement.

Stockholder approval of the Special Meeting Right Amendment is binding on the Company. Accordingly, if the Special Meeting Right Amendment is approved by the requisite vote, the Company will file a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and the Special Meeting Right Amendment will become effective at the time of such filing and the corresponding amendments to the Bylaws will become effective.

If the Special Meeting Right Amendment is not approved by the requisite vote, then no Certificate of Amendment will be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, the Company will not make the corresponding amendments to the Bylaws and stockholders will not have the ability to request that the Company call a special meeting of stockholders.

Approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote on the matter. Abstentions and broker non-votes (if any) will have the effect of a vote “AGAINST” this proposal.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS

PROPOSAL 5

Set forth below is a stockholder proposal from Jason Hubert, along with his supporting statement, for which the Company and the Board accept no responsibility. Mr. Hubert has informed the Company that he is the beneficial owner of shares of the Company with a value in excess of $25,000 and has held these shares continuously for at least one year. We will provide the address and number of shares held by Mr. Hubert promptly upon receiving an oral or written request for such information. The stockholder proposal is required to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting only if properly presented at the Annual Meeting.

Proposal 5 — Improve Clawback Policy for Unearned Executive Pay

Shareholders ask the Board of Directors to amend the Company Policy on recoupment of incentive pay to apply to the each Named Executive Officer and to state that conduct or negligence — not merely misconduct — shall trigger mandatory application of that policy. Also, the Board shall report to shareholders in each annual meeting proxy the results of any deliberations about whether or not to cancel or seek recoupment of unearned compensation paid, granted or awarded to NEOs under this policy. There shall at least be the full web address of the complete Clawback Policy in each annual meeting proxy.

This is a stronger Clawback policy than the policy TPL adopted.

Wells Fargo offers a prime example of the need for a strong policy. After 2016 Congressional hearings, Wells Fargo agreed to pay $185 million to resolve claims of fraudulent sales practices. The Wells Fargo Board of Directors then moved to claw back $136 million from 2 top executives. Wells Fargo unfortunately concluded that the CEO had only turned a blind eye to the practice of opening fraudulent accounts and that there would be no recoupment in spite of Well Fargo paying a $185 million penalty.

The Ohio nuclear bribery scandal is another example of the need for a strong clawback policy.

Speaker of the Ohio House of Representatives, Matt Borges, and 3 others were accused in July 2020 of accepting $60 million in bribes from the utility FirstEnergy in exchange for $1.3 billion worth of benefits in the form of Ohio House Bill 6, in what became known as the Ohio nuclear bribery scandal. FirstEnergy’s stock price plummeted. In July 2021, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio announced that FirstEnergy would be fined $230 million for its part in the scandal.

Improve Clawback Policy for Unearned Executive Pay — Proposal 5

TPL Statement in Opposition to Proposal 5

The Board recommends a vote AGAINST this stockholder proposal for the following reasons, each of which is discussed in more detail below: (i) the Company’s existing clawback policy is even more comprehensive than the policy contemplated by the proposal, and the proponent’s requests are overly prescriptive and could result in misleading disclosures, (ii) the Board believes the scope of the stockholder proposal is inappropriate and impractical and that adopting the proposal’s suggested clawback provisions is against the Company’s best interests; and (iii) the Company is committed to upholding the highest levels of ethics and integrity and, to that end, has implemented various policies and entered into agreements to hold executive officers accountable for conduct that results in financial or reputational harm.

The Company’s existing clawback policy is even more comprehensive than the policy contemplated by the proposal, and the proponent’s requests are overly prescriptive and could result in misleading disclosures.

The Board adopted the Company’s Clawback Policy (the “Clawback Policy”) in accordance with SEC rules and NYSE listing standards. The Clawback Policy requires the clawback of an executive officer’s erroneously awarded incentive compensation in the event of an accounting restatement because of material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements — regardless of the executive officer’s personal culpability. Accordingly, the Clawback Policy has a no-fault standard, which is an even lower standard than the proposal’s requested standard of “conduct or negligence.” Thus, under the Clawback Policy, the Board does not need to determine that a covered executive of the Company was negligent

Texas Pacific Land Corporation | Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROPOSAL 5

or committed misconduct, by act or omission, for the policy to apply. Furthermore, the proposal calls for a policy “to apply to each Named Executive Officer…” The existing Clawback Policy applies to current and former executive officers, which is a broader group of employees than named executive officers.

In accordance with SEC rules and NYSE listing standards, the Company has already filed a copy of the Clawback Policy as an exhibit to its Annual Report on Form 10-K and is required to make detailed public disclosures regarding if and how the Clawback Policy has been applied during the applicable fiscal year, if at all. See “Corporate Governance and Board Structure — Clawback Policy” on page 43 for a discussion of the Clawback Policy. Proposal 5 seeks to require disclosure of “the results of any deliberations about whether or not to cancel or seek recoupment of unearned compensation paid, granted or awarded to NEOs…” Such disclosure goes beyond the disclosure mandated by applicable SEC rules and NYSE listing standards, which in turn could dilute the usefulness of information regarding our Clawback Policy that the SEC and the NYSE believe is important to investors. In addition, the level of disclosure contemplated by Proposal 5 would be impractical and distract the Company from its day-to-day business activities. The Board believes that decisions regarding additional voluntary disclosure should be made on a case-by-case basis, taking into account confidentiality, competitive, commercial and legal or privilege considerations. The policy changes contemplated in Proposal 5 could effectively limit the Board’s ability to exercise its business judgment in connection with determining the most appropriate action to address a specific situation. Further, in the case of deliberations resulting in a determination to not seek recoupment, related disclosure could be incorrectly interpreted by stockholders as a failure by the Company to take any remedial or corrective action in response to the situation. As discussed below, the Company does not tolerate misconduct by its executive officers or other employees. Even if recovery of compensation is not required in a particular situation, other corrective or remedial actions may be taken.

The Board believes the scope of the stockholder proposal is inappropriate and impractical and that adopting the proposal’s suggested clawback provisions is against the Company’s best interests.

The Clawback Policy is triggered in the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement of its financial statements due to the Company’s material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period. The Board believes this clearly defined and objective trigger provides certainty to the Company’s executive officers and appropriately focuses them on the importance of accurate financial statements. In contrast, the proposal does not articulate any triggering event for the recoupment of incentive compensation but, instead, applies where there has been “conduct or negligence.” These terms are ambiguous and are undefined in the proposal. By applying a clawback policy to any conduct (rightful or wrongful, and related or unrelated to the restatement of the Company’s financial statements), and using the potentially subjective determination of negligence, the proposal could discourage officers from exercising the business judgment necessary to evaluate complex business decisions and deliver stockholder value. Such a result could cause a chilling effect on executive decision making, undermine the objectives of our performance-based compensation program and discourage our executive officers from taking appropriate risks for fear that their legitimate business decisions may subsequently come under scrutiny. Confusion in the application of the policy could also harm the Company’s ability to attract and retain quality executive officers.

The Company is committed to upholding the highest levels of ethics and integrity and, to that end, has implemented various policies and entered into agreements to hold executive officers accountable for conduct that results in financial or reputational harm.

The Company strives to maintain a culture of accountability, in which ethical conduct is encouraged and rewarded and improper conduct is taken seriously and addressed. Recoupment of compensation under the Clawback Policy is one tool available to manage and address executive behavior and ensure that incentive compensation is truly earned. The Company also employs numerous other policies to help manage risk and define expectations for ethical decision making, accountability and responsibility. For example, the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics requires Company employees, officers and directors to, among other things, conduct themselves honestly, ethically and in compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards and the Company’s policies; act in the Company’s best interests and avoid actual or perceived conflict of interest; and protect Company assets and information. The Company and the Board have flexibility and discretion under the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and other Company policies to address conduct that results in financial or reputational harm through a variety of means, including termination, disciplinary action, changes in job responsibility, training or alterations to compensation in future years. In addition, each of the Company’s executive officers is party to an employment agreement that allows the Company to terminate such executive officer’s employment at any time for cause (which includes, among other things, the executive officer’s willful engagement in any dishonesty or gross misconduct). Additionally, the various equity award agreements to which the Company’s executive officers are parties provide that all unvested equity awards will be forfeited upon an executive officer’s termination for cause.

PROPOSAL 6

Set forth below is a stockholder proposal from Edward Beddow, along with his supporting statement, for which the Company and the Board accept no responsibility. Mr. Beddow has informed the Company that he is the beneficial owner of shares of the Company with a value in excess of $25,000 and has held these shares continuously for at least one year. We will provide the address and number of shares held by Mr. Beddow promptly upon receiving an oral or written request for such information. The stockholder proposal is required to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting only if properly presented at the Annual Meeting.

Proposal 6 — Stockholder Proposal Requesting the Board Permit Written consent by Shareholders

Resolved: Shareholders request that our board of directors undertake such steps as may be necessary to permit written consent by shareholders entitled to cast the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize an action at a meeting at which all shareholder entitled to vote thereon were present and voting. This written consent is to be consistent with applicable law and consistent with giving the shareholders the fullest power to act by written consent consistent with applicable law. This includes shareholder ability to initiate any topic for written consent consistent with applicable law.

SUPPORTING STATEMENT SUBMITTED BY MR. BEDDOW

This proposal topic passed with a majority of votes at the annual meetings in 2023 and 2022 without any special effort by the shareholder proponent. Yet the Board of Directors have not acted to implement this action despite the wishes of a majority of shareholders.

Many Fortune 500 companies provide for shareholders to call special meetings and to act by written consent. In recent years, similar measures attracted significant shareholder votes at companies such as Xerox and Dover.

With the exception of Messrs, Stahl and Oliver, management and other directors own fewer than 5,000 (pre-split) shares of Texas Pacific Land common stock representing less than 1/10 of 1% of outstanding shares according to the most recent proxy statement. A large part of even that small number of shares were granted under compensation schemes overseen by the very people who benefit from the granting of shares.

Please vote to enhance shareholder value by sending management a clean message that shareholders expect them to be responsive to the majority will.

Please vote yes:

Shareholder Right to Act by Written Consent — Proposal 6

TPL Statement in Opposition to Proposal 6

The Board recommends a vote AGAINST this stockholder proposal for the following reasons, each of which is discussed in more detail below: (i) the Board’s responsiveness and accountability to stockholders makes written consent rights unnecessary; (ii) a written consent process does not promote transparent decision-making and could disenfranchise stockholders; (iii) stockholder meetings offer important protections and advantages that are absent from the written consent process; (iv) the ability to act by written consent is an uncommon and seldom-used right, and its limited utility does not outweigh its disadvantages; and (v) the Board considered the voting results of a substantially identical proposal presented at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders and continues to recommend voting against this proposal.

The Board’s responsiveness and accountability to stockholders makes written consent rights unnecessary.

The ability to act by written consent is unnecessary because TPL’s robust stockholder engagement program and commitment to effective governance practices enable the Board to be responsive to stockholder feedback. The Board and the Company’s management team regularly engage with stockholders throughout the year and incorporate their perspectives into the Board’s deliberations regarding business and governance matters. Following the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, the Company reached out to 47% of stockholders and members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met with 33% of stockholders. During those discussions, stockholders expressed an almost universal preference for a right to call a special meeting over a right to act by written consent and indicated that an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation providing for the ability to call a special meeting (as contemplated by Proposal 4) would address any concerns with the inability of stockholders to act by written consent.

Texas Pacific Land Corporation | Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROPOSAL 6

A written consent process does not promote transparent decision-making and could disenfranchise stockholders.

The Board strongly believes that when the Company’s stockholders are asked to act on a matter, all stockholders — not just a select few — deserve to have their votes solicited and counted and should be afforded the opportunity to consider the matter in an open forum at a stockholder meeting, which provides stockholders with important protections and procedural safeguards. We also believe that stockholders should have adequate time to consider the matters proposed, an opportunity for fair discussion, and the ability to exchange views with the Board before stockholder action is taken.

In contrast, stockholder action by written consent is less transparent and less democratic than action at a stockholder meeting. Action by written consent has several important disadvantages of which stockholders should be aware, including:

•

Provides Insufficient Notice and Limits Opportunity for Stockholders to Engage: Action by written consent is less transparent and democratic than a stockholder meeting because it may not result in all stockholders receiving notice of a proposed action prior to its approval. If stockholder action by written consent were permitted, a small group of stockholders would be able to take action without distributing a proxy statement containing complete and accurate information in advance of the action being taken and without permitting other stockholders to meaningfully engage and express their views. This approach would effectively disenfranchise all of those stockholders who do not have or are not given the opportunity to participate in the action by written consent, and who may not be informed about the proposed action until after it has already been taken.

•

Creates Confusion, Disruption and Expense: The written consent process has the potential to create confusion because different stockholder groups could solicit multiple written consents simultaneously, some of which may be duplicative or contradictory, which could impose significant administrative and financial burdens on the Company with no corresponding benefit to stockholders.

•

Allows a Small Group of Stockholders to Exercise Disproportionate Influence: Action by written consent can allow a select group of stockholders (including special interest investors) to approve critical actions without advance notice to, or participation by, all of the other stockholders or to the Company, circumventing the important deliberative process of a stockholder meeting. Stockholder action by written consent could be used to pursue individual agendas or significant corporate actions that neither enhance long-term stockholder value nor advance the interests of stockholders as a whole. The Board believes that every stockholder’s vote is important and deserves consideration.

Stockholder meetings offer important protections and advantages that are absent from the written consent process.

Some of the protections and advantages of stockholder meetings, which are absent from the written consent process, are as follows:

•

A stockholder meeting and the resulting stockholder vote take place in a transparent manner on a specified date that is publicly announced well in advance, giving all stockholders a chance to consider and vote on proposed actions;

•

A stockholder meeting provides stockholders with a forum for open discussion and consideration of the proposed action;

•

Accurate and complete information about the proposed action is included in a proxy statement, which is widely distributed to stockholders before the meeting;

•

All communications with respect to proposed actions to be taken at a meeting of stockholders are governed by SEC rules that require fair disclosure to all stockholders; and

•

The Board is able to analyze and provide a recommendation to stockholders with respect to actions proposed to be taken at a stockholder meeting.

PROPOSAL 6

Written consent is an uncommon and seldom-used right, and its limited utility does not outweigh its disadvantages.

The ability for stockholders to act by written consent is uncommon among public companies. According to FactSet, less than 27% of companies in the S&P Midcap 400 permit action by written consent, and only approximately 33% of the companies in TPL’s SIC Group provide this right.1

Furthermore, the right to act by written consent, even when provided, is rarely exercised. Over the last 10 years, there have been only 11 attempts by stockholders to act by written consent at U.S. incorporated companies with market capitalizations of over $500 million. In contrast, there have been nearly 2,152 threatened proxy contests at annual meetings at such companies.2

This stockholder proposal demands that the Board adopt a right that is unlikely to ever be exercised but that, if used, could cause substantial disruption and expense and disenfranchise stockholders, as noted above. Accordingly, the Board does not believe that this right is necessary or in the best interests of stockholders.

The Board considered the voting results of a substantially identical proposal presented at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders and continues to recommend voting against this proposal.

A non-binding stockholder proposal regarding stockholder action by written consent, substantially identical to this proposal, was presented to our stockholders at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders and received the support of 58.0% of votes cast at the meeting, but only 34.5% of the total shares outstanding. This approval rate fell far short of the vote required to approve an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to permit stockholder action by written consent. An amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to permit stockholder action by written consent would require the affirmative vote of over 50% of the total shares outstanding.

Based on the feedback of stockholders at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders and in follow-up discussions with stockholders, the Board has determined to submit a proposal at the Annual Meeting for stockholders to approve an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation providing for stockholders to have the right to call special meetings (Proposal 4). If this proposal passes, it would grant stockholders an important tool for ensuring responsiveness and accountability from the Board and would obviate the need for a stockholder right to act by written consent.

For the foregoing reasons, the Board recommends a vote AGAINST this stockholder proposal.

Proposal 7 — Directors to be Elected by Majority Vote Improvement

Resolved: Adopt a Corporate Governance Guideline, rule, or bylaw provision to state that that a director who fails to obtain a majority vote in an uncontested election shall not be eligible to be nominated as a director by the Board at the next annual shareholder meeting.

SUPPORTING STATEMENT SUBMITTED BY MR. GLIKSBERG

When TPL shareholders give a director a no confidence vote it is important that the TPL Board respect the vote of TPL shareholders and not override such a shareholder no confidence vote. This proposal could improve director performance because a failed vote would have more of a consequence. Currently, a director with a failed vote could remain on the Board continuously for years into the future.

Under the current rules the TPL Board of Directors could be the cheerleaders for a director who fails to get a majority vote from TPL shareholders and then keep such a failed director on the TPL Board in spite of shareholder rejection. Under these rules, a TPL director could be kept on the TPL Board year after year of failed votes. The current rule is hardly the type of rule that would inspire TPL directors to excellent performance.

Please vote yes.

TPL Statement in Opposition to Proposal 7

The Board recommends a vote AGAINST this stockholder proposal for the following reasons, each of which is discussed in more detail below: (i) the Bylaws already provide an appropriate mechanism for director nominees failing to receive a majority vote; (ii) implementing the proposal would constrain the Board’s ability to properly exercise its fiduciary duties; and (iii) the Board continues to believe that the majority voting standard in the Bylaws with the current resignation policy is most appropriate for the Company and its stockholders.

The Bylaws already provide an appropriate mechanism for director nominees failing to receive a majority vote.

While Delaware law allows an incumbent director nominee who is not re-elected to remain on the board as a holdover director until a successor is elected, our Bylaws specifically provide that an incumbent director who does not receive a majority of votes cast in an uncontested election shall promptly tender his or her resignation to the Board, subject to acceptance by the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which consists solely of independent directors, must make a recommendation to the Board as to whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation, or whether other action should be taken. The Board must act on the tendered resignation, taking into account the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s recommendation, and publicly disclose its decision regarding such tendered resignation no later than 90 days following certification of the election results. Although the Board believes that there are very limited situations in which there would be a compelling reason to retain a director despite the results of a stockholder vote, it also believes that discretion is important to allow the Board to fulfill its fiduciary duty and act in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders if such a scenario arises.

The Company’s director resignation policy allows the Board to make an informed decision about whether it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to accept a resignation tendered by a director who failed to receive majority support. We anticipate that any such resignation would be accepted (absent strong justification for rejecting it), in which case any such director would not be renominated at the next annual meeting. Therefore, the Board believes, as a practical matter, that the stockholder proposal and our existing director resignation policy would in most instances produce the same result. However, in limited circumstances, the Board may determine that there is a compelling reason to reject a resignation. For example, in some cases, the underlying issue causing a failed director election (e.g., overboarding or problematic committee service) may be resolved without the need for the director to leave the Board. In addition, the Board may determine that the Board would lack a particular skill or experience if a resignation was accepted without the Board being able to consider alternatives, such as a proper recruitment of a qualified candidate. In the event the Board

Texas Pacific Land Corporation | Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROPOSAL 7

decides not to accept a tendered resignation, that director would be an incumbent at the time the next nominations are considered, and at that time, the Board would have discretion to consider the director for nomination based on then-current circumstances. Considering that our director resignation policy achieves the objective of the proposal while maintaining the ability of the Board to exercise its discretion in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders when necessary, we recommend voting against the proposal.

Implementing the proposal would constrain the Board’s ability to properly exercise its fiduciary duties.

As described above, the Bylaws mandate that an incumbent director who does not receive a majority of votes cast in an uncontested election to promptly tender his or her resignation to the Board, which becomes effective upon Board acceptance. This director resignation policy does not automatically remove directors, but rather requires the Board to exercise its fiduciary duties and comply with the DGCL in determining whether accepting a resignation is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. This approach also mitigates the prospect of forced vacancies that, if they occur at crucial times, could hamper the ability of the Board to function effectively.

The Board believes Proposal 7 improperly constrains the Board’s ability to properly exercise its fiduciary duties as required and permitted by Delaware law. Proposal 7 mandates “that a director who fails to obtain a majority vote in an uncontested election shall not be nominated by the Board at the next annual stockholder meeting.” As a result, the Board would be prohibited from nominating such a director candidate at the next annual stockholder meeting, even if the Board believes in its fiduciary judgment there is a compelling reason to nominate the director. Under Section 141(a) of the DGCL, “[t]he business and affairs of every corporation…shall be managed by or under the direction of a board of directors…” In determining whether or not to nominate a director candidate, a board must be permitted to freely exercise its judgment on such a matter in order to fulfill its fiduciary duties. Our Board believes that the provision proposed by the proponent would, if adopted, constrain all future directors’ ability to fulfill their fiduciary duties because the Board would be prohibited from nominating any holdover or resigning director regardless of the circumstances that may have led to such director failing to receive the requisite vote or of such director’s qualifications and contributions to the Board.

The Board continues to believe that the majority voting standard in the Bylaws with the current resignation policy is most appropriate for the Company and its stockholders.

In making its recommendation against Proposal 7, the Board reviewed data on voting standards and resignation policies adopted by other public companies. The Company’s majority voting standard with a resignation policy subject to Board discretion aligns with the practice of a majority of S&P Midcap 400 companies and a majority of S&P 500 companies, while a mandatory resignation policy in connection with a failed majority vote has been adopted by only a small minority of these companies. Additionally, over the past year, the average level of support for stockholder proposals seeking some form of a mandatory resignation policy for directors following a failed majority vote or a restriction on renominating such directors was only 17.3%.3 Because the Bylaws already include a majority voting standard and resignation policy in line with a majority of S&P Midcap 400 companies and a majority of S&P 500 companies, and proposals similar to this proposal have generally received low voting support, the Board continues to believe that our current resignation policy is appropriate.

For the foregoing reasons, the Board recommends a vote AGAINST this stockholder proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “AGAINST” PROPOSAL 7.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD STRUCTURE

Stockholder Engagement and Communications with Directors

Our management team and our Board value, and frequently solicit and respond to, the views of our stockholders. We interact with investors throughout the year and regularly engage with our stockholders through open dialogue and direct communication on a variety of topics, including our business and growth strategy, financial performance, corporate governance and executive compensation practices.

Stockholder Outreach, Engagement and Feedback

For the past several years, we have increased the frequency and scope of our stockholder engagement activities, actively solicited stockholder feedback and, when appropriate and determined by the Board to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, made changes to our governance, compensation and other practices in response to the stockholder feedback we received. In 2024, we reached out to stockholders representing 48% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock and held meetings with stockholders representing 32% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock (measured as of September 3, 2024) to consider their perspectives on various issues, including governance and compensation. Independent members of our Board participated in and led each of these meetings with stockholders. The participating Board members were joined in these meetings by one or more of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel, and Vice President of Finance and Investor Relations. Feedback from our stockholder meetings was discussed with management and relayed to the relevant committees of the Board or the full Board, as applicable.

The primary areas of discussion during these engagements have related to:

•

Board refreshment, composition and diversity and related disclosures;

•

stockholder representation on the Board;

•

special meeting rights of stockholders;

•

declassification of the Board; and

•

executive compensation, including the importance of aligning pay and performance, establishing measurable targets and providing transparent disclosure in respect of compensation decisions.

As a result of our active stockholder engagement, our Board and management team have taken the following actions in recent years:

Stockholder Feedback

TPL’S Action

Special Meeting
Rights

Stockholders should be able to call special meetings.

Submitting for stockholder approval at the Annual Meeting a proposal to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to grant stockholders holding 25% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock the right to call a special meeting.

Board Composition

TPL needs stockholder perspectives in the boardroom.

Appointed principals of two of TPL’s largest stockholders, then representing approximately 20% of TPL’s outstanding shares of Common Stock, to the Board.

Longer-serving directors should retire to make way for fresh perspectives.

Two longer-serving directors retired from the Board and did not stand for reelection at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.

Investor
Communications

TPL should enhance its disclosures to better tell its story.

Released an improved and expanded investor presentation in March 2021, which has been updated in subsequent Regulation FD disclosures filed with the SEC, and a video overview of TPL in August 2024.

We remain committed to corporate governance best practices and regular engagement with our stockholders and other stakeholders to solicit and consider their views on these practices, our executive compensation programs, our corporate responsibility and sustainability initiatives and our business strategy and performance. We invite stockholders to email us at IR@texaspacific.com with any suggestions, comments or inquiries.

Stockholder Engagement Regarding Executive Compensation

In 2024, we reached out to stockholders representing 48% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock and held meetings with stockholders representing 32% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock (measured as of September 3, 2024) to consider their perspectives on various issues, including executive compensation. Independent members of our Board participated in and led each of these meetings with stockholders. The participating members of our Board were joined in these meetings by one or more of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel, and Vice President of Finance and Investor Relations.

Following these meetings, the Compensation Committee met with senior management to discuss what we learned during this comprehensive outreach process. In general, we learned that stockholders were not seeking significant changes to our compensation program. Many expressed support for our overall compensation philosophy and suggested modest changes, including enhancing our proxy statement disclosures and increasing the proportion of performance-based equity that we award over time.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD STRUCTURE

The feedback received and the Compensation Committee’s responses are summarized in the table below.

		Stockholder Feedback				Compensation Committee Response
		Adjusted EBITDA Definition: Some investors expressed concern about the definition of Adjusted EBITDA used for our Adjusted EBITDA margin calculation, such as the inclusion of interest income and other non-operating or non-recurring items (e.g., legal expenses).				• Regular Evaluation: The Compensation Committee recognizes the challenges with using Adjusted EBITDA margin as an incentive metric and reduced the weight of this metric in the calculation of our executive officers’ annual cash bonus from 37.5% in 2023 to 25% for purposes of the 2024 annual incentive plan. The Compensation Committee will continue to evaluate the use of Adjusted EBITDA margin and other metrics when establishing the 2025 annual incentive plan. • Interest Income: The Compensation Committee includes interest income in calculating Adjusted EBITDA because (i) this approach aligns with TPL’s capital allocation strategy, (ii) the incentive goals established for Adjusted EBITDA margin include an assumed level of interest income and, therefore, its removal would have minimal impact and (iii) TPL is relatively unique in generating a significant amount of net interest income due to its lack of debt and, therefore, interest income is of heightened significance. The Compensation Committee continues to evaluate the use of Adjusted EBITDA margin as a short-term incentive metric. • Legal Expenses: After due consideration, the Compensation Committee determined to not adjust for TPL’s excess legal expenses when calculating Adjusted EBITDA because its adjustment in both the goal and actual results achieved under the 2023 annual incentive plan would have increased the annual cash bonuses earned by the management team even if interest income had been removed from the calculation.
		Return on Capital Metric: Preference for a return on capital metric in the incentive program.				• Ongoing Review of Return on Capital Metric: The Compensation Committee has incorporated a review of the returns on new capital invested as part of the strategic objectives portion of the 2024 annual incentive plan and intends to continue to evaluate return on capital metrics in the future. • TPL-Specific Considerations: The Compensation Committee also sees the advantages of a return on capital metric; however, the accounting for TPL’s assets may result in a distortion of traditional return on capital metrics.
		Commodity Prices: Concern about the impact of commodity prices on our incentive metrics, since they are outside of management’s control.				• Approach to Incentive Metrics: The Compensation Committee seeks to obtain an appropriate balance between aligning management pay outcomes with the interests of stockholders (regardless of financial impacts that are out of management’s control) and incentivizing management to improve areas that are under their control. Therefore, the Compensation Committee has used a mix of a relative metric (TSR) and an absolute metric (FCF) in the long-term incentive plan. • Collar on Commodity Price: The Compensation Committee has implemented a collar on TPL’s total commodity price realization in the calculation of financial results in the annual incentive plan, so that while management realizes some impact of realized commodity prices, the incentive outcomes are not overly influenced by the impact of changes in realized commodity prices.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD STRUCTURE

		Stockholder Feedback				Compensation Committee Response
		Stock-Based Compensation for Management: Preference for greater stock ownership and stock-based compensation for the management team.				• Approach to Compensation: Our compensation program was redesigned by our Compensation Committee in 2022. The redesign, which took into account industry standard ownership guidelines, aimed to further align the interests of management and stockholders through greater use of stock-based compensation and encouraging management to hold a significant amount of stock. As a result, our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation has gone from 100% cash-based in 2020 to approximately 34% cash-based in 2023 (assuming target performance). • Delayed Impact of Redesigned Program: Note that there is a delay between the redesign of the compensation program and the growth in disclosed ownership since the compensation program includes equity awards with long-term vesting. For example, the first tranche of performance share units (“PSUs”) was awarded in February 2022 but will not be eligible to vest until February 2025.
		Additions to Peer Group: Addition of royalty-focused peer companies, including Viper Energy, Inc., Freehold Royalties Ltd., Dorchester Minerals, L.P. and Topaz Energy Corp., as well as non-oil and gas royalty companies.				• Approach to Benchmarking: The primary purpose of TPL’s reference peer group is its use as a benchmark in evaluating executive compensation. In selecting peers, the Compensation Committee primarily considers industry, company size, whether the company is one that we may recruit talent from or lose talent to and the appropriateness of each potential peer’s compensation programs for purpose of comparison. We think it is of critical importance for our executive team to have significant oil and gas experience and knowledge and, as a result, we do not consider companies outside of our industry for inclusion in our peer group. • Addition of Peer Company: Based on stockholder feedback and in light of recent acquisitions, the Compensation Committee is considering making certain changes to the reference group for purposes of making compensation determinations for 2025. While the Compensation Committee believes that certain of the royalty-focused companies suggested by stockholders, such as Freehold Royalties Ltd., might be appropriate to consider adding, it believes that the addition of certain other suggested companies would likely be inappropriate. For instance, Viper Energy, Inc., as a subsidiary of Diamondback Energy, Inc., has a different corporate structure than TPL and, in the Compensation Committee’s view, would not be a helpful comparison for compensation determinations.

Communication with Directors

The Board is committed to meaningful engagement with stockholders and other interested persons and welcomes input and suggestions. Information regarding how stockholders can contact the Chair or non-management members of the Board is set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, which are posted on the Company’s corporate website, www.TexasPacific.com.

•

Attending quarterly earnings calls, investor conferences, and other similar opportunities;

•

Sending an email to our Investor Relations department at IR@texaspacific.com;

•

Mailing a letter to us at 1700 Pacific Avenue, Suite 2900, Dallas, Texas 75201, Attention: Investor Relations; and

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD STRUCTURE

Our Investor Relations team, in consultation with the General Counsel, will not forward any communication that it determines in good faith to be frivolous, unduly hostile, threatening, illegal or similarly unsuitable. The General Counsel will maintain a list of each communication that was not forwarded because it was so determined to be unsuitable. Such list shall be delivered to the Board at its quarterly meetings. In addition, each communication that was not forwarded because it was determined to be unsuitable will be retained in the Company’s files and made available at the request of any member of the Board to whom such communication was addressed.

Board Structure and Committees

Board Leadership Structure

Our Board is led by the Chair. Mr. Best serves as the Chair and is an independent director. Our Bylaws and Corporate Governance Guidelines each provide that the Chair of the Board may also hold the position of Chief Executive Officer. At this time, the Board believes that separation of the Chair and Chief Executive Officer positions is appropriate and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The Board believes that such separation provides independent leadership for the Board, helps ensure critical and independent thinking with respect to the Company’s strategy and performance and allows our Chief Executive Officer to focus on the Company’s day-to-day business operations. Our Chief Executive Officer also serves as a member of the Board as the management representative. The Company believes this is important to make information and insight directly available to the directors in their deliberations. This structure gives the Company an appropriate, well-functioning balance between non-management and management directors that combines experience, accountability, and effective risk oversight.

The duties of the Chair include, among other things:

•

Chairing Board meetings and meetings of stockholders;

•

Establishing the agenda for each Board meeting;

•

Leading executive sessions of the Board;

•

Having authority to call Board meetings;

•

Approving meeting schedules for the Board and information distributed to the Board;

•

Consulting with the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee with regard to the membership and performance evaluations of the Board and committee members; and

•

Performing such other duties and responsibilities as may be requested by the Board.

In the event the Chair does not qualify as independent, our Corporate Governance Guidelines require the independent directors to select from among themselves a lead independent director. The duties of a lead independent director are set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines and include chairing Board meetings in the absence of the Chair, convening and leading executive sessions of the Board, serving as a liaison between the Chair and the independent directors, being available for consultation and director communication with major stockholders as directed by the Board, and performing such other duties and responsibilities as requested by the Board.

Board of Directors

The Board currently consists of ten (10) directors, nine (9) of whom — Mr. Best, Gen. Cook, Ms. Duganier, Ms. Epps, Mr. Kurz, Mr. Oliver, Mr. Roosa, Mr. Stahl and Ms. Woung-Chapman — are considered “independent” under the rules of the SEC and the NYSE. No director may be deemed independent unless the Board determines that he or she has no material relationship with TPL. Mr. Best serves as the Chair. In light of Mr. Best’s extensive experience in the energy industry and service on public company boards, the Board believes that he is well-positioned to serve as Chair.

The Board meets at least quarterly, and the independent directors serving on the Board meet in executive session (i.e., without the presence of any non-independent directors and management) immediately following regularly scheduled Board meetings. Each executive session of the Board is chaired by the Chair, who is an independent director. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Last Fiscal Year”), the Board met six (6) times and acted by written consent in lieu of holding a meeting one (1) time. All of the directors attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings held by the Board and of the committees on which they served during the Last Fiscal Year. While the Company does not have a policy requiring director attendance at annual meetings of stockholders, each director is expected to attend the Company’s annual meetings of stockholders. Each member of the Board attended our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.

The Audit Committee is also responsible for the appointment, pre-approval of work, compensation, and oversight of the auditors and for overseeing enterprise risk management, including oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats. The Audit Committee periodically reviews the Company’s policies and practices for managing cybersecurity risks, including incident response plans, to ensure that such policies and practices are appropriately tailored to the Company’s risk framework. During the Last Fiscal Year, the Audit Committee held five (5) meetings.

The Audit Committee Charter is provided on the Company’s corporate website at www.TexasPacific.com.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD STRUCTURE

Listed Company Manual, and qualifies as a “non-employee director” for purposes of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. The primary functions of the Compensation Committee are to review, approve and recommend corporate goals and objectives relevant to compensation of TPL’s Named Executive Officers (as defined below), review and approve TPL’s compensation plans and review and make recommendations regarding compensation for non-employee directors.

The Strategic Acquisitions Committee was established as a standing committee in May 2024.

The Strategic Acquisitions Committee Charter is provided on the Company’s corporate website at www.TexasPacific.com.

Ad Hoc Committees

From time to time, the Board constitutes ad hoc committees, the membership, duties and compensation, if any, of which are determined by the Board.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

Each of Ms. Duganier, Gen. Cook, Mr. Kurz and Mr. Roosa served on the Compensation Committee during the Last Fiscal Year. None of the persons who served on the Compensation Committee during the Last Fiscal Year is or has been an officer or employee of the Company, and, except as described below, none had any relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries during the Last Fiscal Year that would be required to be disclosed as a transaction with a related person. None of our executive officers currently serves, or served in the Last Fiscal Year, on the board of directors or compensation or similar committee of another company at any time during which an executive officer of such other company served on our Board or Compensation Committee.

On August 27, 2024, the Company announced the acquisition of oil and gas mineral interests in 4,106 total net royalty acres located in Culberson County, Texas for $124 million in cash (the “Mineral Interest Acquisitions”). The Mineral Interest Acquisitions were completed in conjunction with Brigham Royalties Fund I Holdco, L.L.C., a subsidiary of Brigham Royalties. Robert Roosa, a member of the Company’s Board, is a partner in, and serves as the Chief Executive Officer of, Brigham Royalties. Brigham Royalties originally identified the opportunity and, because of the size and concentration, invited the Company to participate. Following the execution of the purchase and sale agreements (totaling 7,416 net royalty acres) related to the Mineral Interest Acquisitions, a 55.4% interest in each was assigned to a subsidiary of the Company.

Each party paid a pro-rata share of the purchase price and closing costs. The Company directly paid an aggregate of approximately $1.1 million in commissions to six Brigham Royalties employees, which was equal to the bonuses those employees would have received with respect to the Mineral Interest Acquisitions had they been completed by Brigham Royalties. Those fees were significantly less than commissions the Company would have paid to other third parties for similar services. The Company performed its own diligence and valuation, and the Mineral Interest Acquisitions were approved by the Company’s Audit Committee and full Board with Mr. Roosa abstaining. The Company did not pay any fees or commissions to Brigham Royalties or Mr. Roosa in connection with, and the Company and Brigham Royalties have no further relationship with respect to, the Mineral Interest Acquisitions.

Corporate Governance

The Company is committed to conducting its business in accordance with the highest level of ethical and corporate governance standards. The Board periodically reviews its corporate governance practices and takes other actions to address changes in regulatory requirements, developments in governance best practices and matters raised by stockholders. The following describes some of the actions the Company has taken to help ensure that our conduct earns the respect and trust of stockholders, customers, business partners, employees, and the communities in which we live and work.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD STRUCTURE

Corporate Governance Guidelines

Our Board has developed corporate governance policies and practices in order to help fulfill its responsibilities to stockholders and provide a flexible framework for it to review, evaluate, and oversee the Company’s business operations and management. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines set the standards, among other things, with respect to:

•

Director independence;

•

Criteria for selection of director candidates;

•

Board refreshment;

•

Board leadership structure;

•

Requirements for service on the Board;

•

Conflict of interest;

•

Confidentiality;

•

Board and Board committees’ policies regarding director attendance;

•

Criteria for Board and management evaluation;

•

Director compensation; and

•

Communication.

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees and periodically reviews the Corporate Governance Guidelines, and recommends any proposed changes to the Board for approval.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

The Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applicable to all members of the Board, executive officers and employees. A copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available on the Company’s corporate website at www.TexasPacific.com. We will make any legally required disclosures regarding amendments to, or waivers of, provisions of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics on our corporate website.

Risk Oversight

The Company believes that risk oversight is the responsibility of the Board as a whole and not solely of any one of its committees. The Board recognizes that all companies face a variety of risks, including strategic risk, reputational risk, environmental risk and operational risk. The Board periodically reviews the processes established by management to identify and manage risks and communicates with management about these processes. The Board encourages, and management promotes, a corporate culture that incorporates risk management into our corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations, including with respect to the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints or other expressions of concern received from employees of the Company or other persons. The Board also continuously assesses and analyzes, with the input of management, the most likely areas of future risk to which we may be vulnerable.

At the Board committee level, the Audit Committee regularly discusses policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, the Company’s major litigation and financial risk exposures, compliance, cybersecurity, information technology and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures. The Compensation Committee oversees risks arising from the Company’s compensation and employee benefits plans, policies and programs for its employees. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, with assistance from the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee, oversees our ESG program and monitors related risks. The Board and the various committee chairs address any issues identified in such discussions and reviews with management as they arise, and monitor actions, procedures or processes implemented in response.

Our General Counsel serves as our chief compliance officer, and periodically reviews the effectiveness of the Company’s compliance programs and responds to, and monitors the status and response to, compliance issues that may arise from time to time. The General Counsel reports to the Chief Executive Officer.

Audit Committee Procedures; Procedures for Approval of Related Person Transactions

The Audit Committee meets separately and periodically with the Company’s independent auditor, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and a representative of the internal audit function to assess certain matters, including the status of the

Texas Pacific Land Corporation | Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD STRUCTURE

independent audit process, management and the independent auditor’s assessments of the Company’s financial reporting and internal controls and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, and management’s views as to the competence, performance and independence of the independent auditor. The Audit Committee oversees the internal audit function, including its structure, personnel, budget, and annual internal audit plans. In addition, the Audit Committee, as a whole, reviews and meets to discuss the annual audited financial statements and quarterly financial statements with management and the independent auditor. The Audit Committee makes a recommendation to the Board each year as to whether the annual audited financial statements should be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Information about the procedures for approval of related person transactions is available under the heading “Transactions with Related Persons” on page 47 below.

Other Governance Matters

Qualifications and Nominations of Directors

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter provides that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee screen, recruit and interview individuals that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believes are qualified to become members of the Board, consistent with criteria approved by the Board from time to time, and recommend to the Board the (a) director nominees to be selected by the Board to stand for election or re-election at the annual meeting of stockholders and (b) director candidates to be appointed by the Board to fill vacancies and newly created directorships. The Board and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determine the minimum qualifications that a director nominee should possess on a case by case basis and typically evaluate candidates based on factors including, but not limited to, a general understanding of finance, corporate governance and strategy, senior leadership experience, public company board experience, an understanding of the Company’s business and industry, diversity of background, perspectives and experiences, character, whether the candidate would satisfy the independence standards of the NYSE Listed Company Manual and the other skills identified in the matrix included in “Proposal 1 — Election of Directors — Qualifications and Experience” above. The Board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee aim to identify a diverse group of candidates and believe that no single criterion such as gender or minority status is determinative in obtaining diversity on the Board.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews periodically the size of the Board and oversees an annual self-evaluation of the Board and its committees. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may also consider such other factors as it may deem to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Whenever the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee concludes, based on the reviews or considerations described above or due to a vacancy, that a new nominee to the Board is required or advisable, it will consider recommendations from directors, management, stockholders and, if it deems appropriate, consultants retained for that purpose. In such circumstances, it will evaluate individuals recommended by stockholders in the same manner as nominees recommended from other sources. Stockholders who wish to nominate an individual for election as a director directly, without going through the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, must comply with the procedures in the Bylaws. The Bylaws are provided on the Company’s corporate website at www.TexasPacific.com.

Our Board has adopted a “majority vote policy.” Under this policy any nominee for director in an uncontested election who does not receive a majority of the votes cast and is an incumbent director is required to promptly tender his or her resignation, subject to acceptance by the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will make a recommendation to the Board as to whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation or whether other action should be taken. The Board will then act on the tendered resignation, taking into account the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s recommendation, and publicly disclose its decision regarding the tendered resignation within ninety (90) days from the date of the certification of the election results. A director who tenders his or her resignation will not participate in the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee or the decision of the Board with respect to his or her resignation.

Insider Trading Policy; Anti-Hedging Policy

We have an Insider Trading Policy that sets forth terms, conditions, timing, limitations, and prohibitions with respect to trading in the Company’s securities. The Insider Trading Policy prohibits all employees, executive officers, directors, agents, consultants and contractors from trading in the Company’s securities while in possession of material nonpublic information. Such persons are also generally prohibited from hedging, including engaging in publicly traded options, puts, calls, or other derivative instruments relating to the Company’s securities, or selling the Company’s securities “short.” The Insider Trading Policy also requires that such persons obtain pre-approval from the Company’s General Counsel for

Texas Pacific Land Corporation | Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD STRUCTURE

all pledges, and the deposit in margin accounts, of the Company’s securities and the securities of any other company designated by the Company’s General Counsel. The Insider Trading Policy also restricts directors, officers subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and certain other specifically designated employees from trading in the Company’s securities during certain periods and only after they have obtained pre-clearance for trades in the Company’s securities from the Company’s General Counsel (or, in the case of the General Counsel, the Chief Financial Officer).

Clawback Policy

The Company has adopted a Clawback Policy in accordance with Section 10D of the Exchange Act and Rule 10D-1 promulgated thereunder (collectively, “Section 10D”). In the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement of its financial statements due to the Company’s material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period, the Clawback Policy requires that covered executives must reimburse the Company, or forfeit, any excess incentive compensation received by a covered executive during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which the Company is required to prepare the restatement. Executives covered by the Clawback Policy are current and former executive officers, as determined by the Board in accordance with Section 10D and the NYSE Listed Company Manual. Incentive compensation subject to the Clawback Policy includes any cash or equity compensation that is granted, earned or vested based wholly or in part on the attainment of a financial reporting measure as defined in Section 10D. The amount subject to recovery is the excess of the incentive compensation received based on the erroneous data over the incentive compensation that would have been received had it been based on the restated results.

Environmental, Social and Governance

The Company’s current ESG disclosure is available on the Company’s corporate website at www.TexasPacific.com. The ESG disclosure has been prepared in accordance with the frameworks of the Sustainable Accounting Standards Board, the Global Reporting Initiative, and the Task Force on Climate Related Disclosures.

Integrating sustainability and ESG objectives is a priority for our Company. The Company’s ESG strategy reflects its dedication to meeting tactical business priorities while managing the environmental impacts of its operations, maintaining principles for social responsibility, and upholding a commitment to strong corporate governance. Our ESG strategy is focused on the overarching priorities of environmental management, employee health and safety, workforce management and equality, community and landowner engagement, and strong corporate governance and ethics. We are committed to sustainability and responsible stewardship across all of our operations and land management activities.

As the Company does not produce oil or gas from the land from which its royalties’ revenue stream is derived, it developed its sustainability goals and partnership opportunities in consultation with the entities operating on its land. On the water solutions side of its business, the Company developed a tailored ESG program that addresses the ethical and responsible buildout of water assets and management of water as a natural resource. The Company’s continued goal is an integrated and iterative approach to sustainable and responsible resource management.

TPL’s ESG accomplishments and goals include but are not limited to:

•

Converted from a business trust to a Delaware corporation in January 2021, providing enhanced governance to the Company’s stockholders.

•

Increased the electrification of the Company’s water assets in an effort to reduce costs and mitigate the overall emission profile of the Company by reducing reliance on diesel generators. Cumulatively through December 31, 2023, TPL has spent $15.8 million of capital on electric infrastructure.

•

Initiated energy tracking in 2020 to monitor and identify trends in energy consumption and sourcing.

•

Prioritizing the health and welfare of TPL’s workforce.

•

Employed practices for the tracking and monitoring of all spills, regardless of if they are within or outside of regulatory reporting requirements. We had zero spills of produced water in 2023 and 2022.

•

Partnered with oil and gas operators on the Company’s surface estate to collectively discuss and manage ESG risks. Partnership opportunities included: developing renewable energy infrastructure across the Company’s land, developing water infrastructure to support the reuse and recycling of produced water — a critical response to climate change, partnering to develop innovative technologies that support emissions management, and more.

Human Capital Resources

We believe we have a talented, motivated and dedicated team, and we are committed to supporting the development of our team members and continuously building on our strong culture. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had 100 full-time employees, of which 30 were employees of TPWR, and as of August 1, 2024, the Company had 110 employees, of which 34 were employees of TPWR.

Our business strategy and ability to serve customers relies on employing talented professionals and attracting, training, developing and retaining a knowledgeable skilled workforce. We maintain a good working relationship with our employees. We value our employees and their experience in providing value through land, mineral and water resource management and water solutions. Maintaining a robust pipeline of talent is crucial to our ongoing success and is a key aspect of succession planning efforts across the organization. Our leadership and human resources teams are responsible for attracting and retaining top talent by facilitating an environment where employees feel supported and encouraged in their professional and personal development. We are committed to enhancing gender, racial and ethnic diversity throughout our organization. We believe that diversity is an important factor in bringing people together, encouraging shared commitment and fostering new ideas.

We strive to be a great place for our employees to work. Accordingly, we offer industry competitive pay and benefits, tuition reimbursement and continuing education classes and are committed to maintaining a workplace environment that promotes employee productivity and satisfaction.

Employee safety is also among our top priorities. Accordingly, we have developed and administer company-wide policies to ensure a safe and fair workplace free of discrimination or harassment for each team member and compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) standards, as further discussed in our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. This commitment applies to recruiting, hiring, compensation, benefits, training, termination, promotions or any other terms and conditions of employment. We maintain our strong focus on safety and have taken measures to protect our employees and maintain safe, reliable operations.

We strive for a goal of zero occupational injuries, illnesses and incidents in our workplace. To ensure that we protect our safety culture, we have in place a dedicated HS&E team with substantial combined years of experience and have in-house authorized trainers for OSHA-required certified training, powered equipment training and PCE-safe land certificated training.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Under such rules, an individual or entity is generally deemed to beneficially own any shares as to which the individual or entity has sole or shared voting or investment power, including any shares that the individual or entity has the right to acquire within 60 days of September 13, 2024 through the exercise of any stock options, through the vesting/settlement of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), or upon the exercise of other rights. Shares underlying PSUs will not be deemed beneficially owned by a person even if the PSU may vest within 60 days of September 13, 2024 because the satisfaction of the applicable performance conditions is outside of the person’s control. For purposes of computing the percentage of outstanding shares of Common Stock held by each person or group of persons named below, any Common Stock that such person or persons has the right to acquire within 60 days of September 13, 2024 is deemed to be outstanding but is not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

Except as indicated in the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished or available to us, that the persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of Common Stock that they beneficially own, subject to community property laws where applicable. There are no arrangements currently known to us, the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change of control of the Company.

Transactions with Related Persons

TPL generally does not engage in transactions in which TPL’s executive officers or directors (or any of their immediate family members) or any of TPL’s stockholders owning 5% or more of TPL’s outstanding shares of Common Stock (or any of their immediate family members) have a material interest. Should a proposed transaction or series of similar transactions involve any such persons in an amount that exceeds $120,000 in any fiscal year, it will be subject to review and approval by the Audit Committee in accordance with its written policy and procedures adopted by the Board. Transactions entered into that were not related person transactions at the time that they were consummated, but that later become related person transactions during the course of the transaction, will also be subject to review by the Audit Committee in accordance with a written policy adopted by the Board.

As discussed above, on August 27, 2024, the Company announced the acquisition of oil and gas mineral interests in 4,106 total net royalty acres located in Culberson County, Texas for $124 million in cash. The Mineral Interest Acquisitions were completed in conjunction with Brigham Royalties Fund I Holdco, L.L.C., a subsidiary of Brigham Royalties. Robert Roosa, a member of the Company’s Board, is a partner in, and serves as the Chief Executive Officer of, Brigham Royalties. Brigham Royalties originally identified the opportunity and, because of the size and concentration, invited the Company to participate. Following the execution of the purchase and sale agreements (totaling 7,416 net royalty acres) related to the Mineral Interest Acquisitions, a 55.4% interest in each was assigned to a subsidiary of the Company.

Other than as discussed above, there have been no transactions between the Company and a related person that would be reportable under SEC rules or regulations.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) provides information on the compensation arrangements for each of TPL’s Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer), Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer),up to three other most highly compensated individuals who were serving as an executive officer at the end of the Last Fiscal Year, and up to two other individuals who would have been included as other most highly compensated individuals but who were not serving as executive officers at the end of the Last Fiscal Year, for services rendered to TPL and its subsidiaries in all capacities during the Last Fiscal Year (the “Named Executive Officers”). The compensation disclosures below reflect fiscal year 2023.

For fiscal year 2023, the following officers represented our Named Executive Officers:


	TYLER GLOVER President and Chief Executive Officer				CHRIS STEDDUM Chief Financial Officer				MICHEAL W. DOBBS Senior Vice President, Secretary, and General Counsel

Executive Summary

TPL was originally organized in 1888 as a business trust to hold title to extensive tracts of land that were previously the property of the Texas and Pacific Railway Company. On January 11, 2021, we completed our Corporate Reorganization from a business trust to a corporation changing our name from Texas Pacific Land Trust to Texas Pacific Land Corporation.

Our business activity is generated from our surface and royalty interest ownership, primarily in the Permian Basin. Our revenues are derived from oil and gas royalties, water sales, produced water royalties, easements, and other surface-related income and land sales. Due to the nature of our operations and concentration of our ownership in one geographic location, our revenue and net income are subject to substantial fluctuations from quarter to quarter and year to year. In addition to fluctuations in response to changes in the market price for oil and gas, our financial results are also subject to decisions by the owners and operators of not only the oil and gas wells to which our oil and gas royalty interests relate, but also to other owners and operators in the Permian Basin as it relates to our other revenue streams, principally water sales, produced water royalties, easements, and other surface-related revenue.

Key Aspects of 2023 Design

Following a substantial redesign of our compensation programs in 2022, the Compensation Committee generally maintained the overall program structure in 2023. This program design is based on typical practices among our Reference Group (see below) while reflecting the unique aspects of TPL. The compensation program design is intended to meet the following objectives:

•

Align executives’ financial interests more closely with stockholders;

•

Tie a substantial portion of executive compensation with the Company’s performance (both stock price and financial performance) to incorporate risk into the awards, while relying heavily on formulaic incentive compensation;

•

Incorporate long-term vesting periods for a substantial portion of executive compensation to help ensure continuity of the management team;

•

Ensure transparency for participants and stockholders about how outcomes are determined with an appropriate and competitive level of pay at risk;

•

Meet common governance standards for public companies, and assess and control the program to avoid creating undue risk or encouraging excessive risk-tasking by executives; and

•

Ensure a competitive compensation program.

We believe that our program, including awards under the Texas Pacific Land Corporation 2021 Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”), has an appropriate balance of risk and reward in relation to our overall business strategy and that the balance of compensation elements discourages excessive risk-taking.

We have maintained the key aspects of our compensation program for 2024.

Decision-Making Process

Compensation Philosophy and Approach

TPL’s 2023 executive compensation program design is intended to recruit and retain an executive team and to reward performance in achieving TPL’s goal of creating stockholder value. The 2023 executive compensation program consists principally of a salary, an annual cash bonus (sometimes referred to as awards under a non-equity incentive plan commencing in 2022), and share-based compensation. Base salaries provide our Named Executive Officers with a steady income stream that is not contingent on TPL’s performance. Differences in salary for the Named Executive Officers may reflect the differing responsibilities of their respective positions, the differing levels of experience and qualifications of the individuals, internal pay-equity considerations and individual performance. The annual cash bonus allows the Compensation Committee flexibility to recognize and reward each Named Executive Officer’s contributions to TPL’s performance in any given year. Salaries are reviewed annually, and salary adjustments and the amounts of annual cash

Texas Pacific Land Corporation | Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

bonuses are determined by the Compensation Committee and the Board, as applicable, based upon an evaluation of the Named Executive Officer’s performance and contributions, as well as overall performance of the Company, against the goals and objectives of TPL in accordance with the relevant employment agreements in effect, as applicable. Share-based compensation awards link pay to performance and align Named Executive Officers’ interests with those of the Company and its stockholders over the long term.

As part of its compensation program, TPL also maintains both a qualified defined benefit pension plan and a qualified defined contribution plan, both of which are available to employees generally, including the Named Executive Officers. These plans are designed to assist employees in planning for their retirement.

Stockholder Engagement; Consideration of 2023 Say on Pay Vote

Prior to the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, at the direction of our Compensation Committee, TPL management reached out to 10 of our largest stockholders, representing more than 20% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock (measured as of September 12, 2023), to discuss our executive compensation program along with other topics of importance to them, including governance, sustainability and strategy. Four stockholders representing approximately 10% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock (measured as of September 12, 2023) accepted our invitation to share feedback, and members of management and of the Board engaged at length with them. The remaining six stockholders we contacted either did not respond or confirmed that they did not have any concerns with our executive compensation program and therefore no engagement was necessary.

Independent members of our Board participated in and led each of these meetings with stockholders. Each meeting included some combination of our Compensation Committee chair and at least one other member of the Board. They were joined in these meetings by most or all of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel, and Vice President of Finance and Investor Relations.

Following these meetings, the Compensation Committee met with senior management to discuss what we learned during this comprehensive outreach process. In general, we learned that stockholders were not seeking significant changes to our compensation program. Many expressed support for our overall compensation philosophy and instead suggested modest changes, including enhancing our proxy statement disclosures and increasing the proportion of performance-based equity over time.

At our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, the majority of our stockholders voted to approve our executive compensation program, with approximately 81% approval among votes cast. The Compensation Committee viewed this as support of its approach and philosophy and as a basis for continuing with the program described in this CD&A for 2023.

See “Stockholder Engagement and Communications with Directors” on page 34 above for a detailed discussion of the Company’s stockholder engagement efforts, including stockholder engagement regarding executive compensation, and how feedback from stockholders impacted decisions made with respect to our 2024 executive compensation program.

Role of the Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee has the sole authority to determine the compensation of the Named Executive Officers other than the Chief Executive Officer and to make recommendations to the Board, which has the authority to make final decisions with respect to the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for developing and overseeing an equity compensation program for the Company’s other employees, and for making recommendations to the Board with respect to compensation for non-employee directors, with assistance from the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant.

In establishing the Named Executive Officers’ compensation for 2023, the Compensation Committee chair and the full Compensation Committee met multiple times, including with management and/or the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant, to review market practices, evaluate potential alternatives, determine appropriate metrics and goals, and review strategic goals and performance.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Role of Management

Our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Glover, provided recommendations for compensation for his direct reports. Additionally, the management team provided the Compensation Committee with financial performance information to assist with the assessment of company and individual performance in determining the bonuses for 2023. The Compensation Committee considered this information in its decision-making process. No member of management participated in discussions relating to his or her own compensation.

Role of the Independent Consultant

Since 2021, the Compensation Committee has engaged Meridian as its independent compensation consultant to assist the Compensation Committee in fulfilling its responsibilities related to the oversight of TPL’s executive officer and non-employee director compensation. The Compensation Committee determined that Meridian was independent from management based upon the consideration of various relevant factors, including that Meridian did not provide any services to TPL except advisory services to the Compensation Committee, and that Meridian maintained, and adhered to, policies and procedures that were designed to prevent conflicts of interests.

The independent compensation consultant advises the Compensation Committee in the development of pay strategies regarding our executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer, and non-employee directors. The Compensation Committee reviews and discusses matters involving executive officer and non-employee director compensation. Following this review, the Compensation Committee makes a determination and/or recommendation to the Board, as applicable under the Compensation Committee’s Charter, regarding, among other things (a) the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and the compensation of executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer, in each case including salary, bonus, benefits, incentive awards and perquisites, and (b) compensation for TPL’s non-employee directors.

Benchmarking Process

Determining the 2023 Compensation Program

As described below, the Compensation Committee asked Meridian to review market data as part of the process of establishing 2023 compensation for our Named Executive Officers. As part of this process, the Compensation Committee noted that TPL is a unique organization in a number of ways:

•

It is the largest publicly traded mineral royalty focused organization, with a market capitalization more than double the next largest publicly traded mineral royalty focused organization;

Texas Pacific Land Corporation | Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

•

Unlike most mineral royalty focused organizations, TPL also owns and manages a large amount of surface rights;

•

These surface rights allow the creation of additional business lines, such as our water business and Surface Leases, Easements and Material (referred to as “SLEM”);

•

TPL’s legacy assets carry zero basis on the balance sheet; and

•

TPL’s financial profile is unusual with no debt, limited book assets, and high margins. TPL also returns a significant portion of its cash flow to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases.

As a result of these unique characteristics, TPL does not have any direct peers. Instead of reviewing peer group market data, the Compensation Committee asked Meridian to review compensation for a group of comparable reference companies (the “Reference Group”). The Reference Group (listed below) represents companies which operate in ancillary businesses such as royalty mineral and non-operating companies, midstream companies, and E&P companies that have business lines similar to TPL and are similar in market capitalization, enterprise value, and/or Adjusted EBITDA.

Royalty Mineral and Non-Operating Companies	Midstream Companies	E&P Companies
PrairieSky Royalty Ltd.	Western Midstream Partners, LP	Marathon Oil Corporation
Black Stone Minerals, L.P.	DCP Midstream, LP	PDC Energy, Inc.
Sitio Royalties Corporation	EnLink Midstream, LLC	Matador Resources Company
Kimbell Royalty Partners	NuStar Energy L.P.	SM Energy Company
	Crestwood Equity Partners LP	Callon Petroleum Company
	Magellan Midstream Partners	Southwestern Energy Company
	Equitrans Midstream Corporation	Range Resources Corporation

Market data from this Reference Group, plus additional broad survey data from general industry and the E&P industry, was used by the Compensation Committee as a reference to help determine the 2023 compensation program design and individual pay levels as well as in determining the 2023 compensation, which is described below. During 2023, in preparation for decisions regarding 2024 compensation, the Compensation Committee refreshed the listing of companies in the Reference Group to account for mergers/acquisitions occurring during 2023. The following companies were removed from the Reference Group for 2024: DCP Midstream, LP, Crestwood Equity Partners LP, and Magellan Midstream Partners (Midstream Companies) and PDC Energy, Inc. (E&P Company). The following companies were added to the Reference Group for 2024: Northern Oil and Gas, Inc. (Non-Operating Company) and DT Midstream, Inc. (Midstream Company).

2023 Compensation Program

TPL’s 2023 executive compensation program design is intended to reward performance in achieving TPL’s goal of creating stockholder value, as detailed below.

Base Salaries

Our Named Executive Officers receive a base salary to provide a competitive level of fixed compensation based on each individual’s position, experience, and qualifications, internal pay-equity considerations and individual performance. The base salaries as of the end of 2023 for our Named Executive Officers were as follows:

Named Executive Officer	Base Salary as of December 31, 2023
Tyler Glover		$	850,000
Chris Steddum		$	500,000
Micheal W. Dobbs		$	420,000

The base salary for Mr. Glover was unchanged from 2022. The Compensation Committee increased the base salaries for Mr. Steddum and Mr. Dobbs for 2023 to better align with market data from the Reference Group.

The Compensation Committee has established a structured annual incentive program, with goals tied to key metrics for the company, pursuant to which the bonuses discussed above are awarded. For 2023, the metrics included two financial metrics (Adjusted EBITDA margin and free cash flow (“FCF”) per fully diluted share), as well as several strategic objectives, as outlined below.

2023 Annual (Short-Term) Incentive Program Summary

Metric	Weight	Rationale
Adjusted EBITDA Margin	37.5%	TPL has one of the highest Adjusted EBITDA margins of any company in the oil and gas industry and maintaining high margins is a high priority for the management team.
FCF per Fully Diluted Share	37.5%	Generating FCF is a high priority for TPL, which enables greater returns to stockholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases.
Strategic Objectives	25%	These objectives were established based on key strategic priorities that are intended to promote long-term success, such as safety, ESG progress against goals/metrics, increasing use of TPL’s land, SLEM, and water services, and leveraging TPL’s land to explore other non-oil and gas revenue streams.

Goals for each of the 2023 metrics were established in early 2023, based on expectations for the year. The Threshold, Target, and Maximum level of performance for each financial metric are outlined below. At Threshold, Target, and Maximum performance levels, 50%, 100%, and 200% of the target bonus would be earned, respectively, for each metric.

Metric	Weighting	Threshold	Target	Maximum	Actual Results
Adjusted EBITDA Margin	37.5%	80.5%	84.0%	86.5%	85.7%
FCF per fully diluted share	37.5%	$37.00	$48.00	$60.00	$54.05

TPL’s performance against the pre-established financial goals can be heavily influenced by the impact of changes in commodity prices. To mitigate this impact, the Compensation Committee implemented a commodity adjustment calculation, which uses a collar on commodity prices. Within the collar range, no adjustment is made for commodity prices. If TPL’s total commodity price realization falls below or rises above the collar range, a floor or cap on prices is applied. This approach provides our management team with some exposure to commodity price fluctuations, in line with our stockholders, but limits the exposure. In 2023, the collar for TPL’s total commodity price realization ranged from $37.65 per Boe to $54.56 per Boe. Actual realizations of $42.58 per Boe were within the range of the collar for 2023, thus no adjustment to price per Boe was necessary for determining Adjusted EBITDA margin and FCF per fully diluted share.

Based on final financial results, TPL exceeded the Target level on both of the financial metrics, earning 169% of target on the Adjusted EBITDA margin metric and 150% of target on the FCF per fully diluted share metric.

The Compensation Committee also established strategic objectives for the year which were intended to encourage our management team to take action to improve TPL’s long-term opportunities for success, but which did not directly impact financial results in 2023. These objectives are outlined below.

	Strategic Objectives			Results
	Expansion of non-oil and gas revenues — increase contracted renewable megawatts (“MW”) on TPL surface			Contracted additional 510 MWs of renewable energy, representing a 307% increase in 2023 compared to 2022
	Market share — maintain development capture rate above TPL’s acreage ownership share			Achieved lateral feet drilled market share of 15% above average ownership level
	Safety — maintain TRIR at or below industry average			No reported safety incidents; TRIR score of zero
	Zero produced water spills and maintain 100% safety training			Zero spills and 99% safety training achieved with the remaining training completed in February 2024
	Environmental — maintain Scope 1 emission levels below 2021 levels			2023 Scope 1 emissions declined 14% from 2021 levels due to lower fuel consumption as a direct result of electrification of water facilities

Given the challenging nature of the strategic objectives and the 2023 actual results, the Compensation Committee scored the strategic objectives at 125% of target.

Based on the achievement of all three metrics, bonuses were earned at 151.1% of target for each of the Named Executive Officers, as outlined below:

Named Executive Officer	Actual Bonus for 2023
Tyler Glover		$	1,412,785
Chris Steddum		$	679,950
Micheal W. Dobbs		$	475,965

As part of its ongoing evaluation of the annual incentive program and after considering feedback from stockholders, the Compensation Committee determined to reduce the weight of Adjusted EBITDA margin in the calculation of the annual cash bonuses our executive officers are eligible to receive for 2024. As a result, the weighting of the metrics used for purposes of the 2024 annual incentive plan was adjusted as follows:

Metric	2023 Weight	2024 Weight
Adjusted EBITDA Margin	37.5%	25%
FCF per Fully Diluted Share	37.5%	50%
Strategic Objectives	25%	25%

2023 Long-Term Incentive Program

As part of the program redesign in 2022, the Compensation Committee implemented a long-term incentive program for key employees of TPL, including Named Executive Officers. The goals of the long-term incentive program include:

•

Align executives’ financial interests with stockholders.

•

Tie executive compensation with long-term performance.

•

Create a retention incentive through a substantial forfeitable balance with long-term vesting.

•

Provide a competitive compensation program aligned with typical company practices.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

To meet the objectives of the program, the Compensation Committee established a long-term incentive program for the Named Executive Officers that uses a combination of PSUs and RSUs. Each of the primary vehicles is summarized in the table below and described in more detail later in this section.

Vehicle	Weight	Rationale
PSUs Tied to Relative Total Stockholder Return (“RTSR”) against the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production ETF (“XOP”) Index	25%	Earned if TPL performs well against a broad group of energy companies included in the XOP index. The maximum amount can only be earned if TPL is in the top 10% of this index.
PSUs Tied to Three-Year Cumulative FCF per Fully Diluted Share	25%	Earned if TPL meets pre-established goals for generating FCF over the three-year performance period. Generating FCF enables greater returns to stockholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases.
Time-Based Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)	50%	Increases alignment between executives’ interests and stockholders through share ownership of our executive team. Encourages continuity of the management team due to long-term (three-year) vesting provisions.

Performance Share Units (PSUs)

PSUs made up 50% of our Named Executive Officers’ long-term incentive compensation for 2023. The Compensation Committee believes that PSUs create alignment between our executive officers and our long-term performance as measured by RTSR against a broad energy industry index (50% of PSUs) and the generation of free cash flow per fully diluted share over a three-year period (50% of PSUs). These awards vest, if at all, at the end of a three-year performance period.

The PSUs tied to RTSR (the “RTSR PSUs”) are intended to measure the performance of TPL’s stock against a broad set of energy industry companies included in the XOP index. Measuring RTSR against this group helps mitigate the impact of commodity price swings on the other measurements of our performance. While TPL does not have any direct peers, the broad XOP index comprises many of our customers and other companies that are similarly impacted by fluctuations in commodity prices.

The RTSR PSUs can be earned between 0% and 200% of the target number of shares based on our RTSR percentile ranking against the constituents of the XOP index as follows:

	Percentile Rank			Shares Earned as a % of Target(1)
	90th or above			200%
	70th			150%
	50th			100%
	25th			25%
	< 25th			—%

(1)

Payouts are interpolated between the points in the table.

RTSR is measured using an average closing price at the beginning and end of the performance period. In the case of the 2023 awards, the average closing price over the month of January 2026 will be compared against the average closing price over the month of January 2023, assuming reinvestment of dividends from February 1, 2023 to January 31, 2026.

The remaining 50% of PSUs (the “FCF PSUs”) measure our cumulative FCF per diluted share against our initial targets over a three-year period. If the Company is able to outperform and generate greater FCF, it will help enable an increase in returns to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases. By measuring FCF on a per share basis, it requires our management team to ensure any dilution to our stockholders results in sufficiently greater FCF on an absolute basis.

Maximum	$65.00/Share	200%

Payouts are interpolated between the points in the table.

Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)

RSUs made up the other 50% of our Named Executive Officers’ long-term incentive compensation for 2023. Regular grants of RSUs are intended to help build an ownership stake in TPL, thereby further aligning the interests of executives with the interests of TPL stockholders. The RSUs serve as a retention tool by creating a substantial forfeitable stake in the Company. The RSUs vest based on continued service to TPL in one-third increments per year, beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date.

2023 Long-Term Incentive Grants

In early 2023, the Compensation Committee established target long-term incentive grant levels for each of its Named Executive Officers based on a review of market data from the Reference Group and consideration of other factors such as experience and expertise, individual and company performance, and potential competitive opportunities for each of our Named Executive Officers. The target long-term incentive grant levels were established as a percentage of salary and converted into a number of units based on the stock price on the grant date. The February 2023 awards are summarized in the table below(1):

Name	Base Salary			Target LTI as % of Base Salary		Target LTI Dollar Amount(2)			Number of PSUs (at Target)		Number of RSUs
Tyler Glover		$	850,000		400%		$	3,400,000		2,652		2,652
Chris Steddum		$	500,000		325%		$	1,625,000		1,272		1,269
Micheal W. Dobbs		$	420,000		250%		$	1,050,000		822		819

All share amounts reflect the three-for-one stock split effected on March 26, 2024.

The Target LTI Dollar Amount does not match the accounting values in the Summary Compensation Table as the accounting value of the RTSR PSUs is based on a Monte Carlo valuation.

Other Compensation

TPL’s Named Executive Officers are eligible to participate in the same benefit programs as are available to all TPL employees generally. These programs include both a qualified defined benefit pension plan and a qualified defined contribution retirement plan. These plans are designed to assist employees in planning for their retirement. There are no supplemental non-qualified programs that are maintained solely for the benefit of our executives.

TPL also provides certain executive officers with minimal perquisites, including an automobile allowance.

Other Governance Features

Stock Ownership Guidelines

The Company believes that it is in the best interests of our stockholders for our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, to maintain a significant ownership position in TPL to create substantial alignment between our senior management and our stockholders. Therefore, we have established stock ownership guidelines applicable to all of our

Texas Pacific Land Corporation | Proxy Statement

TABLE OF CONTENTS

EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

executive officers. The ownership guidelines require each of our executive officers to hold shares of Common Stock with an aggregate value of at least a specified multiple of base salary as follows:

•

Chief Executive Officer — 5x base salary

•

Other Named Executive Officers — 2x base salary

•

Other Executive Officers — 1x base salary

Shares counting towards the guideline include TPL shares held outright and unvested time-based restricted shares. PSUs and RSUs do not count until earned. Until and unless each officer has achieved the desired ownership level, he or she is required to retain at least 50% of the after-tax shares received upon vesting of equity awards.

Employment Agreements

The Company has entered into an employment agreement with each Named Executive Officer following approval from the Compensation Committee. These employment agreements provide for minimum levels of compensation and provide severance protections for the officer upon a termination of employment without Cause or for Good Reason (each as defined in the applicable agreement). These agreements help match competitive practices and also include certain restrictive covenants designed to protect the Company. The provisions of these agreements are summarized under the section titled “Employment Agreements” below.

Accounting and Tax Considerations

In setting the components of our executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee considers the impact of the following tax and accounting provisions:

•

Code Section 162(m). Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), generally disallows a tax deduction by public companies for compensation over $1 million paid individually to covered employees, as defined in the Code. Tax deductibility is only one factor considered by the Compensation Committee in making compensation decisions that are in the best interest of TPL and our stockholders.

•

Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, “Stock Compensation” (“ASC Topic 718”). ASC Topic 718 requires a public company to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity based on the grant date fair value of the award. Our equity awards to the Named Executives Officers (and to our other employees) are structured in a manner that is intended to maintain the appropriate accounting treatment.

•

Code Section 409A. Section 409A of the Code provides that deferrals of compensation under a nonqualified deferred compensation plan or arrangement are to be included in an individual’s current gross income to the extent that such deferrals are not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture and have not previously been included in the individual’s gross income, unless certain requirements are met. We structure our stock plans, change of control agreements, severance plans and agreements and other incentive plans and agreements, each to the extent they are subject to Section 409A, to be in compliance with Section 409A.

•

Code Sections 280G and 4999. The change of control benefits in our Named Executive Officers’ employment agreements provide that, upon a change of control, we will either (i) reduce the amount of severance benefits otherwise payable to the executive officer so that such severance benefits will not be subject to excise tax for purposes Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code or (ii) pay the full amount of severance benefits to the executive officer (but with no tax “gross-up”), whichever produces the better after-tax result for the executive officer (often referred to as the “best-of-net” approach).

Risk Assessment

The Compensation Committee has reviewed the relationship between our risk management policies and compensation policies and practices and concluded that we do not have any compensation policies or practices that expose us to risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on TPL.

Other Compensation-Related Policies

We have an Insider Trading Policy that sets forth terms, conditions, timing, limitations, and prohibitions with respect to trading in the Company’s securities. The Insider Trading Policy also generally prohibits executive officers, among others, from hedging, including engaging in publicly traded options, puts, calls, or other derivative instruments relating to the Company’s securities, or selling the Company’s securities “short.” The Insider Trading Policy also requires that such persons obtain pre-approval from the Company’s General Counsel for all pledges, and the deposit in margin accounts, of the Company’s securities. The Insider Trading Policy is discussed further under “Insider Trading Policy; Anti-Hedging Policy” above.

We have adopted a Clawback Policy in accordance with SEC rules and NYSE listing standards that requires covered executives to reimburse the Company, or forfeit, any excess incentive compensation received by them during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement of its financial statements due to the Company’s material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws. The Clawback Policy is discussed further under “Clawback Policy” above.
