Marathon Capital, LLC ("Marathon Capital"), a leading financial advisory and 
investment banking firm to the clean and sustainable energy sector, today 
announced that Chris Shaw has joined the firm as a Senior Managing Director and 
Head of European Investment Banking. Mr. Shaw will be based in London, where he 
will expand Marathon Capital's client and investor base into Europe's robust 
energy ecosystem.

"The energy space is quickly evolving, with clean and renewable energy 
technologies rapidly displacing traditional fossil fuel technologies across 
both the power and transportation markets. Europe is a global leader in these 
trends. Marathon Capital has been servicing global clients in the Americas for 
over twenty years and looks forward to strengthening those relationships with a 
physical presence now in both the U.K. and the EU," said Ted Brandt, CEO. 
"Chris Shaw is a highly respected M&A executive who brings a wealth of 
expertise in both traditional energy and new energy, along with deep global 
client and investor relationships, and we look forward to working with him 
closely as a senior member of the Marathon Capital team and our lead banker in 
the broader EMEA region."

Mr. Shaw joins Marathon Capital after several successful years with Moelis & 
Company, where he was responsible for building a leading global energy advisory 
practice. He has worked in the energy sector for over 25 years in London, Hong 
Kong, Melbourne, New York and Houston, where he has advised clients across the 
value chain. Most recently, Mr. Shaw advised ADNOC on a series of 
infrastructure transactions raising $25bn and Saudi Aramco on both its IPO and 
International Gas strategy. Prior to Moelis, Mr. Shaw worked with the leading 
international energy advisory teams at Schroders, Citigroup and Barclays. He 
holds a BBA with concentrations in Finance and Accounting from Emory 
University. 

"Coming off another record year for Marathon Capital, we look forward to 
supporting Chris with the full capacity of our company, to leverage his 
expertise as we seek to expand our presence in Europe, and to enhance support 
for our global client and investor base," added Philippe Lavertu, COO of 
Marathon Capital.

"I am excited to be working alongside Ted, Philippe and the talented team at 
Marathon Capital as we cultivate the firm's relationships into and across 
Europe," said Mr. Shaw. "We are seeing the rapid acceleration in energy 
transition towards a more sustainable future and I look forward to partnering 
with Marathon Capital's skilled advisors and building on their strong track 
record to help clients achieve their strategic and financial objectives."
