On August 9, 2024, Olivia Wassenaar, Chief Executive Officer of the Company of Apollo Infrastructure Company LLC (the “Company” or “AIC”), informed the Company of her intention to resign as Chief Executive Officer, effective August 16, 2024. Ms. Wassenaar will continue to serve as a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company, Ms. Wassenaar’s decision to resign was not caused by any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the operations, policies or practices of the Company or its affiliates.
Appointment of Harry Seekings as Chief Executive Officer and to the Board as a Director
On August 9, 2024, the Board appointed Harry Seekings as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and to the Board as a Director, effective August 16, 2024.
Mr. Seekings, aged 50, has had a 25-year career in infrastructure, principally as an investor but also in advisory and debt capital markets. He joined Apollo Global Management, Inc. in 2024 as a Partner and Co-Head of Infrastructure. Prior to joining Apollo, Mr. Seekings spent 24 years at InfraRed Capital Partners (and its predecessors) where he most recently served as Senior Advisor, and prior to that role, as Managing Partner and Head of Infrastructure. Mr. Seekings currently serves on the board of directors of CEPRO, and also serves as an Independent Member of the Estates Committee at Jesus College Oxford. Mr. Seekings graduated with honors from University of Oxford with a BA in Modern History and from University of Cambridge with a MPhil in European Studies. We believe Mr. Seekings’ significant experience executing infrastructure transactions and managing infrastructure equity investments makes him a well-qualified member of the Board.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Seekings, on the one hand, and the Company or any other persons, on the other hand, pursuant to which Mr. Seekings was selected as a Director or as Chief Executive Officer. There are no related party transactions between the Company and Mr. Seekings (or any of his immediate family members) requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
