AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · Apollo Global Management (APO)

Apollo grants $10M and $13.5M RSUs to CFO Kelly and Chief Legal Officer Chatterjee

Neutral Impact 3 of 5 shareholder Written later

Apollo's compensation committee approved restricted share unit grants worth $10 million to CFO Martin Kelly and $13.5 million to Chief Legal Officer Whitney Chatterjee, to be granted December 18, 2025, for retention and peer alignment. The company also approved a deferral of settlement for CEO-level executive Scott Kleinman's 2021 RSU awards, pushing part of those shares to 2029 and 2032.

Key points

  • RSU grants of $10 million (Kelly) and $13.5 million (Chatterjee), granted December 18, 2025, vesting tied to a performance fee income requirement
  • Shares underlying the grants will not be delivered until 2029; voluntary resignation before December 31, 2028 delays delivery to 2031
  • Scott Kleinman deferred 500,000 performance-based RSUs to 2029 and 2,000,000 RSUs to 2032 from his December 2021 awards
