 the transactions may not be consummated in a timely manner or at all, for a variety of reasons, and the consequences thereof, including (i) the potential loss of value to Bridge stockholders, including the reduction of the trading price of the 
 Bridge Class A common stock, (ii) the potential negative impact on the operations and prospects of Bridge, including the risk of loss of key personnel and certain key members of senior management, and (iii) the risk that the                    
 market’s perception of Bridge’s prospects could be adversely affected if such transactions were delayed or were not consummated;                                                                                                                    |

 and, as such, Bridge stockholders cannot be certain at the time of the special meeting of the market value of the merger consideration to be paid, and the possibility that Bridge stockholders could be adversely affected in the event that the market 
 price of Apollo common stock decreases relative to the market price of Bridge Class A common stock between the date of the merger agreement and the closing of the mergers;                                                                              |

| • |     | the restrictions imposed by the merger agreement on Bridge’s solicitation of acquisition proposals from                                                                                                                                           
 third parties, and that prospective bidders may perceive Apollo’s right under the merger agreement to negotiate with Bridge to match the terms of any superior proposal prior to Bridge being able to terminate the merger agreement and accept a 
 superior proposal to be a deterrent to making alternative proposals;                                                                                                                                                                              |
