 which the Court of Chancery determines that there is an indispensable
party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days following such determination), which is vested in the exclusive
jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Court of Chancery, or for which the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction.

The exclusive forum provision also provides that it will not apply to claims arising under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other
federal securities laws for which there is exclusive federal or concurrent federal and state jurisdiction, in which case the U.S. federal district courts shall be the exclusive forum for such claims unless Apollo consents in writing to an
alternative forum. Apollo stockholders cannot waive, and will not be deemed to have waived under the exclusive forum provision, Apollo’s compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Although Apollo believes this exclusive forum provision benefits Apollo by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law
in the types of lawsuits to which it applies, this exclusive forum provision may limit the ability of a stockholder, including a former Bridge stockholder or a former holder of Bridge LLC Class A common units who becomes an Apollo stockholder
after the mergers are completed, to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with Apollo or any of Apollo’s directors, officers, other employees or stockholders, which may discourage lawsuits with respect to such
claims. Further, in the event a court finds the exclusive forum provision contained in Apollo’s certificate of incorporation to be unenforceable or inapplicable in an action, Apollo may incur additional costs associated with resolving such
action in other jurisdictions, which could harm Apollo’s business, operating results and financial condition.
