A.  Tensile  Capital  Management  LP,  a  Delaware  limited  partnership  headquartered  in 
Larkspur, California, (the “Registrant”) serves as the investment adviser to certain pooled 
investment  vehicles  including,  without  limitation:  Tensile  Capital  Partners  LP  (the 
“Onshore Fund”), Tensile Capital Partners Offshore Fund Ltd (the “Offshore Fund”) and 
Tensile Capital Partners Master Fund LP (the “Master Fund”). The “Main Fund” refers to 
one  or  more  of  the  Onshore  Fund,  the  Offshore  Fund,  the  Master  Fund  and  alternative 
investment vehicles as described in the Master Fund’s governing documents. In addition, 
the  Registrant  (as  defined  herein)  or  its  affiliates  may,  in  their  sole  discretion,  establish 
dedicated co-investment vehicles in order to facilitate co-investments for specific investors 
alongside the Main Fund in one or more investment opportunities where the Main Fund’s 
General  Partner  determines  that  the  amount  of  the  available  investment  opportunity 
exceeds the amount appropriate for the Main Fund or that any investor in the Main Fund 
will not participate in the investment due to certain limitations set forth in the Main Fund’s 
governing documents (such vehicles, the “Co-Investment Vehicles,” and together with the 
Main Funds, the “Clients,” and each individually, a “Client”).  
Each of the Clients is exempt from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, 
as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), pursuant to Section 3(c)(7) thereof. Interests 
in  the  Clients  are  privately  offered  only  to  investors  that  are  “qualified  purchasers”  as 
defined in the Investment Company Act.  
Certain entities that are affiliated with the Registrant serve as general partners to the Clients 
(each,  a  “General  Partner”).  For  purposes  of  this  brochure,  the  “Registrant”  refers  to 
Tensile  Capital  Management  LP,  together  with,  where  the  context  permits,  the  General 
Partners  and  other  affiliates  that  provide  advisory  services  to,  or  receive  fees  or 
performance compensation from, the Clients. 
In certain cases, the Registrant is entitled to receive performance compensation from  its 
Clients, as discussed further in Item 6.  
Mr. Douglas J. Dossey and Mr. Arthur C. Young (each a “Managing Partner”) founded the 
Registrant in July 2012. Together, Messrs. Dossey and Young have a beneficial
                                        
                                        
                                             ownership 
of the Registrant that exceeds 75%.  
B.  The Registrant provides discretionary investment advisory services to certain Clients. The 
Clients’ investment strategy is to achieve capital appreciation through long-term investing 
in a concentrated portfolio of undervalued publicly traded securities and/or select private 
investments. The Clients engage in the purchase and sale of a broad range of investment 
interests and securities. Securities traded generally include but are not limited to: equity, 
equity-related, hybrid and credit securities that are traded publicly  and privately in  U.S. 
and non-U.S. markets, in addition to illiquid securities such as restricted securities of public 
and  private  companies.  Clients  also  have  in  the  past  and  may  in  the  future  invest  in 
preferred  stocks,  convertible  securities,  warrants,  rights,  options  (including  covered  and 
uncovered  puts  and  calls  and  over-the-counter  options),  swaps  and  other  derivative 
instruments, bonds and other fixed income securities, non-U.S. currencies, futures, options 
on  futures,  other  commodity  interests  and  money  market  instruments.  The  Clients  also 
engage in short selling, hedging and other investment strategies.  
The Registrant provides investment advisory services to each Client in accordance with the 
governing  documents  of  such  Client  or  separate  investment  and  advisory  agreement  or 
investment management agreement. Investment advice is provided directly to the Clients, 
subject to the discretion and control of the applicable General Partner, and not individually 
to the investors in the Clients. Investment restrictions for the Clients, if any, are generally 
established in the organizational or offering documents of the applicable Client, advisory 
agreements and/or side letter agreements negotiated with investors in the applicable Client 
(such documents collectively, a Client’s “governing documents”). 
C.  Certain  investors  in  the  Clients  participate  in  both  the  Registrant’s  publicly  traded 
securities strategy and private securities investment strategy, while others pursue only one 
of those strategies. 
D.  The Registrant does not participate in wrap-fee programs. 
E.  As  of  December  31,  2023,  the  Registrant  manages  approximately  $1,908,965,335  in 
regulatory assets under management on a discretionary basis.
