 Sub Inc., the “Merger Subs”) and, solely for purposes of Section 6.16 thereof, Adam O’Farrell as the representative of Bridge LLC, have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 23, 2025 (as
it may be amended from time to time, the “merger agreement”). A copy of the merger agreement is attached as Annex A to this proxy statement/prospectus. The merger agreement contains the terms and conditions of the proposed acquisition of
Bridge by Apollo. Under the merger agreement, subject to satisfaction (or, to the extent permitted by law and in accordance with the merger agreement, waiver) of the conditions to the mergers set forth in the merger agreement and described in this
proxy statement/prospectus, Merger Sub Inc. will be merged with and into Bridge, with Bridge surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Apollo (the “Corporate Merger”), and Merger Sub LLC will be merged with and into Bridge LLC,
with Bridge LLC surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Apollo (the “LLC Merger” and, together with the Corporate Merger, the “mergers,” and the mergers, collectively with all other transactions contemplated by the
merger agreement, the “transactions”).

As a result of the mergers, (i) Apollo will acquire Bridge and its subsidiaries and
controlled affiliates (including the Bridge general partner entities) (the “acquired companies” which, for the avoidance of doubt, do not include any Bridge sponsored funds, subsidiaries of such funds, facilitator vehicles of such funds or
portfolio investments of such funds), and (ii) Bridge will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Apollo and will no longer be a publicly held company. Following the mergers, the shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of
Bridge (“Bridge Class A common stock”) will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) and deregistered under the Exchange Act and will cease to be publicly traded.

Q: Why am I receiving these materials?

stock and Class B common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Bridge Class B common stock,” and together with Bridge Class A common stock, “Bridge common stock”) with respect to the mergers and other matters to be
considered at the special
