 by non-employee directors of Bridge will become fully vested as of immediately prior to the Corporate Merger effective time and will be converted into the right to receive the Class A Corporate
Merger consideration. The Bridge Board was aware of these interests and considered them, among other matters, in approving the merger agreement and making its recommendation that Bridge stockholders vote “FOR” the merger proposal.

These interests are further described in “The Mergers—Interests of Directors and Executive Officers of Bridge in the Mergers” beginning on page 84.

The opinions of Bridge’s and the special committee’s financial advisors will not reflect changes in circumstances between the signing of the merger agreement and the completion of the mergers.

Bridge and the special
committee have received opinions from their financial advisors in connection with the signing of the merger agreement, but have not obtained any updated opinion from their financial advisors as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus. Changes
in the operations and prospects of Apollo or Bridge, general market and economic conditions and other factors that may be beyond the control of Apollo and Bridge, and on which Bridge’s and special committee’s financial advisors’
opinions were based, may significantly alter the value of Apollo and Bridge or the prices of the shares of Apollo common stock or Bridge common stock by the time the mergers are completed. The opinions do not speak as of the time the mergers will be
completed or as of any date other than the date of such opinion. Because Bridge and the special committee do not currently anticipate asking their financial advisors to update their opinions, the opinions will not address the fairness of the merger
consideration from a financial point of view at the time the mergers are completed. The Bridge Board’s recommendation that Bridge stockholders vote “FOR” approval of the merger proposal and “FOR” the adjournment proposal,
however, is made as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus.

For a description of the opinions that Bridge and the special
committee received from their financial advisors see the section entitled “The Mergers—Opinions of Bridge’s and the Special Committee’s

Financial Advisors” beginning on page 65. Copies of the opinions of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Lazard Frères & Co. LLC, Bridge’s and the special
committee’s financial advisors, respectively, are attached as Annexes D and E, respectively, to this proxy statement/prospectus.
