IHS TOWERS APPOINTS BILL BATES AS SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT AND CHIEF STRATEGY
OFFICER

January 04, 2022

January 4, 2022, London: IHS Holding Limited (“IHS Towers”), one of the largest
independent owners, operators and developers of shared telecommunications
infrastructure in the world by tower count, today announces the appointment of
Bill Bates as Senior Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer.

Based in the US, Bill will be responsible for the Group’s organic and inorganic
strategy, running Group mergers and acquisitions and Group Commercial, reporting
directly to Sam Darwish, IHS Towers Chairman and CEO. With immediate effect,
Bill will serve as a member of IHS Towers’ Executive Committee.

Bill has over twenty years’ experience in the telecommunications sector and has
been instrumental in driving international growth throughout the emerging
markets for SBA Communications. He joins IHS Towers from Brookfield Asset
Management, one of the largest telecom infrastructure investors globally, where
he has spent the last five years investing in towers, fiber and data centers.

Sam Darwish, IHS Towers Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said: “I am
delighted to start 2022 by welcoming Bill to IHS, and specifically, to our
Executive Committee. Bill brings invaluable experience and an incredible track
record of delivering international growth for some of the sector’s leading
players. His expertise will prove crucial as we continue to pursue global
organic and inorganic growth opportunities to become the leading emerging market
telecommunications infrastructure provider. Bill’s appointment is critical to
IHS and continues the strong momentum achieved following our listing on the New
York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in October. Listing on the NYSE has provided access
to the world’s largest and deepest pool of capital and Bill’s appointment is an
important step in this journey.”

Bill Bates, IHS Towers Senior Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer, said:
“I am extremely excited to join IHS. Having been in, and around, the tower
business for the last 30 years I have followed the IHS story for quite some
time. IHS's growth profile has been very impressive. Sam and the team have built
a fantastic platform coupled with world class operational expertise. I look
forward to working with the team to find new opportunities to drive future
growth and expansion of the business."
