4. Section 3.3 (Transfers and Exchanges).

a. Section 3.3(a) of the Roll-Up Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, the Holdings LPA, the Shareholders Agreement, the Exchange Agreement, any applicable lock‑up agreement (provided that any applicable lock‑up agreement shall not be any more restrictive on the Senior Manager and his Group than it is on the Principals and other Senior Executives and their Groups) and applicable law, the Senior Manager shall have the right to cause Holdings to effect, at any time and from time to time, on one or more occasions, an Exchange with respect to all or a portion of the Pecuniary Interest in AOG Units owned by the Senior Manager or members of his Group. The proceeds from any Exchange by the Senior Manager and/or the other members of his Group, net of all selling expenses (other than selling expenses borne by Apollo pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement), shall be distributed by Holdings to the Senior Manager and/or the other members of his Group, depending on whose Pecuniary

Interest in AOG Units was so exchanged. Upon the direction by the Senior Manager to effect an Exchange in compliance with this Agreement, Holdings shall be required to undertake an exchange, on a one‑for‑one basis (or at such other ratio as may be in effect under the Exchange Agreement), of an AOG Unit, on the one hand, for a Class A Share, on the other hand, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly consummate such Exchange; provided, however, that the parties acknowledge that one or more events, such as an underwriter cutback, the unavailability of a registration, the possession of material non‑public information, or general market dislocation may affect the timing of a proposed sale or disposition of Class A Shares following an exchange. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) at the option of the General Partner, in the event of a Pro Rata Exchange in connection with a transaction that constitutes an Extraordinary Transaction (as defined in the Agreement Among Principals) pursuant to clause (i) of the definition thereof or a recapitalization, restructuring, roll-up or other similar transformative transaction as a result of which the entities (other than Apollo) holding AOG Units, directly or indirectly, are dissolved or merged with or into Apollo, an Underwritten Offering (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement) of Class A Shares or an Exchange pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the definition thereof, and (y) in the event of any other Pro Rata Exchange or any Non-Pro Rata Exchange (including any Non-Plan Exchange or Plan Exchange), in each case in lieu of an Exchange, Holdings will make an In-Kind Exchange Distribution. No In‑Kind Exchange Distribution may be made unless the recipient is already a party to the Exchange Agreement as an “Apollo Principal Holder” and a party to the Shareholders Agreement as a Shareholder (or becomes so upon or substantially simultaneous with such In‑Kind Exchange Distribution). In addition, upon an In‑Kind Exchange Distribution, the recipient, or its designated Substitute Exchanging Apollo Principal Holder (as defined in the Exchange Agreement), if applicable, shall exchange the AOG Units received for Class A Shares on the Exchange Date with respect to which the Senior Manager directed such Exchange. The Senior Manager and his Group shall indemnify and hold harmless Holdings and the other Limited Partners from any liabilities or expenses (other than selling expenses borne by Apollo pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement) incurred in connection with such Exchange, other than with respect to any taxable income realized by such other Limited Partners as a result of the Exchange, or, in the case of a Pro Rata Exchange, to the extent attributable to the Senior Manager or a member of his Group. If the Senior Manager or a member of his Group requests an Exchange, then Holdings shall request an Exchange under the Exchange Agreement to cover such Exchange in a manner that would permit the applicable notice provisions under the Exchange Agreement to be met in order for the Exchange to occur on the same Exchange Date with respect to which the Senior Manager directed such Exchange; provided, that, in the event of a Pro Rata Exchange, subject to clause (v) of the definition of “Exchange,” if the General Partner elects to make an In‑Kind Exchange Distribution in lieu of such Exchange, then the General Partner shall make such election and cause such

In‑Kind Exchange Distribution to occur in a manner that would permit the applicable notice provisions under the Exchange Agreement to be met in order for the Exchange to occur on the applicable Exchange Date with respect to which the Senior Manager directed such Exchange.”

5. Section 3.5 (Registration Rights). Section 3.5 of the Roll-Up Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the last sentence thereof.

6. Section 3.8 (Certain Covenants with Respect to Principals). Section 3.8 of the Roll-Up Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“Holdings and BRH agree that, unless the Senior Manager and his Group are given equivalent provisions, no modifications, waivers or additional agreements shall be made that benefit any Principal or a member of his Group (or in the case of clause (iii), all Principals) (i) to the terms of the Exchange Agreement that would permit more AOG Units to be exchanged or to be exchanged at an earlier time or that would permit AOG Units that were otherwise not exchangeable to be exchanged or to permit more Class A Shares to be sold or to be sold at an earlier time or to permit Class A Shares to be sold that would otherwise not be permitted to be sold, (ii) to the registration rights provisions of Article V of the Shareholders Agreement, (iii) to the restrictive covenants and limitations on outside activities (contained in Sections 1 and Section 6 of each Principal’s Employment Agreement) applicable to all of the Principals with respect to the scope of such covenants or limitations or the reduction of the restrictive period (but only if the reduction results in a restrictive period shorter than the restrictive period applicable to the Senior Manager), or (iv) to the Tax Receivables Agreement. Prior to the time as such Principal is no longer providing services as a partner to, or employed by, an Apollo Service Recipient, Apollo shall not, and shall not permit any Apollo Service Recipient to, amend or waive the restrictive covenants and limitations on outside activities applicable to any Principal (as set forth in Sections 1 and 6 of such Principal’s Employment Agreement). The Senior Manager shall have the right, on his behalf and on behalf of his Group, to waive the rights afforded pursuant to this Section 3.8.”

7. Section 6.1 (Notices). Section 6.1 of the Roll-Up Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“NOTICES. All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder to any party shall be deemed to be sufficient if contained in a written instrument delivered (i) in person or sent by facsimile (provided a copy is thereafter promptly delivered as provided in this Section 6.1) or nationally recognized overnight courier, or (ii) by electronic mail, in each case addressed to such party at the address and facsimile number set forth on Schedule III (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified in a notice given to each of the other parties hereto in accordance with this Section 6.1).”

8. Section 6.4 (Counterparts). Section 6.4 of the Roll-Up Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by electronic transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement or any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, and the parties hereto consent to conduct the transactions contemplated hereunder by electronic means. Copies of executed counterparts transmitted by electronic transmission service shall be considered original executed counterparts for purposes of this Section 6.4.”

9. Schedule I (Members of the Senior Manager’s Group) & Schedule III (Notices).

a. Schedule I to the Roll-Up Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety by Annex I to this Amendment.
