set forth in clause (B) above, any notice of exchange with respect to a Non-Plan Exchange shall be irrevocable.
11
(iv) Issuer Repurchase Over-Subscription.
To the extent that the number of Class A Shares that all Apollo Principal Holders have elected to sell to the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.2(a)(ii)(B) exceeds the Aggregate Repurchase Amount for any Quarter, to eliminate such excess,
the number of Class A Shares to be repurchased from each Apollo Principal Holder (and each Participant on whose behalf a notice of exchange was submitted) shall be reduced on a pro rata basis based upon aggregate number of Class A Shares that all
Apollo Principal Holders have elected to sell to the Issuer. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent the number Class A Shares to be repurchased from any Apollo Principal Holder (and any Participant) has been reduced pursuant to this Section
2.1(a)(iv), the corresponding number of AOG Units shall not be exchanged and shall be otherwise available for exchanges, including pursuant to a Fixed Exchange which initially included such AOG Units.
(b) Plan Exchanges.
(i) Notice of Intent.
(A) With respect to any Trading Window in
which a Participant intends to adopt or amend a Plan, the affiliated Apollo Principal Holder shall provide written notice of such Participant’s intent to adopt or amend such Plan and a good faith estimate of the number of AOG Units subject to such
Plan to the Issuer in the form of Exhibit B hereto, which notice of intent shall be delivered (a) at least ten (10) calendar days prior to the opening of such
Trading Window if (1) the number of AOG Units subject to such Plan is less than or equal to 1,000,000 and such notice of intent relates to a Trading Window commencing subsequent to the first Trading window commencing following the date of this
Agreement, (b) at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the opening of such Trading Window if the number of AOG Units subject to such Plan exceeds 1,000,000 and such notice of intent relates to any Trading Window subsequent to the first Trading
window commencing following the date of this Agreement, or (c) at least five (5) calendar days prior to the opening of such Trading Window if such notice of intent relates to the first Trading Window commencing following the date of this Agreement.
(B) An Apollo Principal Holder may provide an
updated or revised written notice of intent with respect to any Trading Window, if (a) there has been a good faith change of intent by the Apollo Principal Holder, (b) the Trading Window is not opened when expected based upon the Issuer’s scheduled
date for announcing earnings or (c) in the event that during a Trading Window the closing trading price per Class A Share on any date is at least 10% higher than the closing trading price per share of the Class A Shares on the day prior to the date
the applicable notice of intent was submitted or was required to be submitted.
(C) An Apollo Principal Holder that did not
provide a notice of intent with respect to a Trading Window pursuant to this Section 2.2(b) may provide a written notice of intent with respect to such Trading Window during such Trading Window.
(D) A notice of intent delivered pursuant to
this Section 2.2(b) shall permit, but not obligate, the applicable Participant to adopt a Plan and/or the Apollo Principal Holder to exchange AOG Units included in such notice of intent in one or more exchanges up to the amount of AOG Units
set forth in such notice of intent.
12
(E) An Apollo Principal Holder may provide
notices pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i) and this Section 2.2(b)(i) at the same time or different times with respect to a Trading Window.
(ii) Notice of Adoption of Plan. If a
Participant adopts a Plan during a Trading Window, the applicable Apollo Principal Holder shall provide the Issuer with a copy of the Plan promptly on or following the date such Apollo Principal Holder adopts the Plan. An Apollo Principal Holder
shall not be permitted to settle an exchange of AOG Units pursuant to a Plan Exchange until after the expiration of the period beginning on the adoption date of a Plan and ending fourteen (14) calendar days following the date the applicable Plan is
adopted. A notice of adoption of a Plan shall not obligate the applicable Apollo Principal Holder to exchange AOG Units.
(iii) Notice of Exchange. In the
event that an Apollo Principal Holder has satisfied the notice procedures in Section 2.2(b)(i) and Section 2.2(b)(ii), the broker administering a Plan on behalf of the applicable Participant through such Apollo Principal Holder may
exercise the right to exchange AOG Units set forth in Section 2.1(a) above by providing a written notice of exchange on the Notice Date to the Issuer substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto; provided, that (a) the
Participant will direct the broker administering such plan to use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver such notice by 8:00 pm New York City time on the Notice Date, (b) such notice of exchange may only be provided to the extent the broker
acting on behalf of the applicable Participant has executed a binding sale transaction with respect to an amount of Class A Shares corresponding to the amount of AOG Units that are subject to the notice of exchange and (c) such notice of exchange

(ii) Revocation of Notice of Exchange.
Any notice of exchange with respect to a Fixed Exchange may be irrevocably revoked by the Apollo Principal Holder in whole, but not in part, with respect to such AOG Units to be exchanged (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall apply to all AOG

Exchange was given.
(iii) Reduction of AOG Units included in
Non-Plan Exchange for an Issuer Repurchase. The amount of AOG Units included in a notice of exchange with respect to a Fixed Exchange shall be automatically reduced by the number of AOG Units that are
13
actually exchanged pursuant to Non-Plan Exchange for an Issuer Repurchase with respect to the same Quarter.
(iv) Issuer Repurchase. In the event
that an Apollo Principal Holder has provided a written notice of exchange for a Fixed Exchange in accordance with Section 2.2(c)(i) above and such Apollo Principal Holder has received a notice for an Issuer Repurchase at least five (5)
calendar days prior to the opening of the Trading Window for the applicable Quarter, it may accept the offer by exercising the right to exchange AOG Units set forth in Section 2.1(a) above by providing a written notice of exchange to the
Issuer substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto at any time after the Issuer issues its earnings release for such Quarter; provided, that such notice of exchange (w) may only be with respect to an amount of Class A Shares that
does not exceed the lesser of (1) the amount of AOG Units that are included in the corresponding notice of exchange for the applicable Fixed Exchange and (2) the Aggregate Repurchase Amount, (x) must be provided to the Issuer no later than 4:00 pm

New York City time on the next Business Day, the Issuer will confirm to each Apollo Principal Holder (and any Participants on whose behalf a notice of exchange has been submitted and not revoked, through such Apollo Principal Holder) who has
submitted, and not revoked, a notice of exchange in accordance with this clause (iv) the amount of Class A Shares that the Issuer will purchase from such Apollo Principal Holder (which shall be the aggregate amount of Class A Shares included in the
applicable notice(s) of exchange submitted by such Apollo Principal Holder for which the minimum closing price has been satisfied, subject to reduction in accordance with Section 2.2(a)(iv) to the extent the offer by the Issuer for the
applicable Quarter is over-subscribed).
(d) Exchanges in Connection with an
Underwritten Public Offering.
(i) Notice of Exchange. An Apollo
Principal Holder, with respect to an Exchange (other than for the avoidance of doubt a Quarterly Exchange) in which the Participant has elected to include AOG Units in an underwritten Public Offering, may exercise the right to exchange AOG Units set
forth in Section 2.1(a) above by providing a written notice of exchange no later than the applicable Notice Date to the Issuer substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto.
(ii) Revocability. With respect to
any notice of exchange with respect to an Exchange in connection with an underwritten Public Offering for which Class A Shares issued upon exchange will be offered in an underwritten Public Offering, an Apollo Principal Holder may irrevocably revoke
any such notice in whole, but not in part, with respect to all AOG Units to be exchanged (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall apply to all AOG Units subject to such notice) in writing immediately before the pricing of the underwritten Public
Offering, but only in the event that the gross price per Class A share offered to the public is at least 10% lower than the closing trading price per share of the Class A Shares on the Stock Exchange on the Notice Date with respect to which such
notice was given.
14
(e) Procedures.
(i) Settlement of AOG Exchange. As
promptly as practicable following the surrender or contribution for exchange of AOG Units in the manner provided in this Article II, the Issuer shall deliver or cause to be delivered at the principal executive offices of the Issuer or at the
office of the Transfer Agent the number of Class A Shares issuable upon such exchange, issued in the name of such exchanging Apollo Principal Holder.
(ii) Implementation. The Issuer may
adopt reasonable procedures for the implementation of the exchange provisions set forth in this Article II and adopt mechanics and policies to implement the intended economic consequences of Exchanges pursuant to this Agreement, including, without
limitation, procedures for the giving of notice of an election for exchange and policies and methods related to the valuation for U.S. federal income tax purposes of any assets owned by the Apollo Principal Entities; provided, that at the
time such policies and methods are adopted, to the Issuer’s knowledge they are not expected to have a disproportionate adverse effect on the Issuer or any subsidiaries of the Issuer.
(iii) 10b5-1 Plans. To the extent
permitted by applicable law, the Issuer shall take all reasonable and necessary action to cooperate with any Apollo Principal Holder (or an applicable Participant or member of each such party’s Group) who shall have notified the Issuer of its
intention to implement a 10b5-1 Plan to implement such 10b5-1 Plan, including: (i) cooperating directly with the broker or brokers who will administer such 10b5-1 Plan, (ii) promptly advising any broker or brokers identified in advance to the Issuer
as administering such 10b5-1 Plan of (A) any Suspension Period (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement) applicable to any re-sale shelf registration statement under which sales of Class A Shares are then being made by such broker or brokers on
behalf of an Apollo Principal Holder (or an applicable Participant or member of their Group) pursuant to such 10b5-1 Plan, (B) any record date established with respect to any dividend payable with respect to Class A Shares at least five (5) Business
Days prior to such record date, (C) any change to the Exchange Rate at least one (1) Business Day prior to its effectiveness, and (D) the date of any Reversion Date and (iii) to the extent the Chief Compliance or Legal Officer of the Issuer (or any
designee thereof) is entitled under any applicable policy of the Issuer to review and pre-approve the 10b5-1 Plan, such review consists of determining that the 10b5-1 Plan conforms to all requirements of Section 240.10b5-1(c)(1)(i) of the Code of
Federal Regulations as then in effect and conforms to any other applicable legal requirements deemed appropriate by the Issuer. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 2.2(e)(iii) shall override any rights or obligations of the
parties to the Shareholders Agreement.
(iv) Broker Cooperation. To the extent
permitted by applicable law, the Issuer shall take all reasonable and necessary actions to cooperate with brokers engaged by an Apollo Principal Holder or an applicable Participant (or member of each such party’s Group) to facilitate the settlement
of an exchange of AOG Units and related disposition of Class A Shares in a manner consistent with this Agreement and applicable Law, including cooperating directly with such broker and providing any certifications to the applicable broker as the
broker deems necessary or appropriate to ensure compliance with applicable laws, regulations or reasonable internal policies.
15
Section 2.3 Registration, Blackout
Periods, Cutbacks and Ownership Restrictions.
(a) Cancelation of Offering; Cutbacks;
Over-Allotment Options. If an underwritten Public Offering of any Class A Shares to be issued upon any exchanges in respect of an Exchange Date is to occur and (A) such underwritten Public Offering does not occur, the Issuer will cancel all
exchanges of the amount of AOG Units attributable to the Class A Shares to be offered in such underwritten Public Offering in respect of such Exchange Date unless, in the case of a Quarterly Exchange, such Apollo Principal Holder shall have elected
in the notice of exchange to have any AOG Units attributable to such underwritten Public Offering exchanged notwithstanding the non-occurrence of such underwritten Public Offering, (B) the Issuer is advised that the underwriter or underwriters or
agent of the Public Offering, as the case may be, intends to reduce or cut back the amount of Class A Shares to be offered in the Public Offering in the manner, and to the extent, contemplated by Article V of the Shareholders Agreement, the Issuer
will reduce or cut back the amount of AOG Units to be exchanged in an Exchange by an Apollo Principal Holder on the applicable Exchange Date unless, in the case of a Quarterly Exchange, such Apollo Principal Holder shall have elected in the notice of
exchange to have any AOG Units attributable to such cut backs exchanged nonetheless or (C) such underwritten Public Offering includes an over-allotment option, which option shall lapse un-exercised in whole or in part, the Issuer will reduce the
amount of AOG Units to be exchanged by an Apollo Principal Holder in an Exchange on the applicable Exchange Date by the amount of AOG Units attributable to such un-exercised portion of the over-allotment amount unless, in the case of a Quarterly
Exchange, such Apollo Principal Holder shall have elected in the notice of exchange to have the AOG Units attributable to such un-exercised portion of the over-allotment exchanged nonetheless.
(b) Blackout Periods. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, an Apollo Principal Holder shall not be entitled to exchange AOG Units, and the Issuer shall have the right to refuse to honor any request for exchange of AOG Units, (i) at any time upon such request, if the Issuer
shall reasonably determine that there may be material non-public information that the Issuer has a bona fide business purposes for preserving as confidential, provided, however, that this shall not restrict (a) any Apollo Principal
Holder from exchanging AOG Units if it is anticipated that the material non-public information will become public prior to the date such Apollo Principal Holder (or a Participant or other member of each such party’s Group) sells the Class A Shares;
(b) any Plan Exchange or any other exchange of AOG Units where the sale of Class A Shares issued upon exchange will be made pursuant to a 10b5-1 Plan that was put in place by an Apollo Principal Holder (or a Participant or other member of such
party’s Group) when such Person was not in possession of material non-public information about the Issuer and its subsidiaries; or (c) settlement of any exchange of AOG Units pursuant to a Non-Plan Exchange with respect to trades made on or prior to
the day that the Issuer notifies the Apollo Principal Holder and the Founders and Contributing Partners that it is exercising such right to refuse to honor the request for exchange of AOG Units; or (ii) if such exchange would be prohibited under
applicable law or regulation.
Section 2.4 Splits, Distributions and
Reclassifications.
If there is: (1) any subdivision (by split, distribution, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse
split, reclassification, recapitalization
16
or otherwise) of the AOG Units it shall be accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the Class A Shares; or (2) any subdivision (by split,
distribution, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Class A Shares it shall be accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the AOG
Units. In the event of a reclassification or other similar transaction as a result of which the Class A Shares are converted into another security, then an Apollo Principal Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exchange the amount of such security
that such Apollo Principal Holder would have received if such exchange had occurred immediately prior to the effective date of such reclassification or other similar transaction. Except as may be required in the immediately preceding sentence, no
adjustments in respect of distributions shall be made upon the exchange of any AOG Unit.
Section 2.5 Class A Shares to be Issued.
The Issuer covenants that if any Class A Shares require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any foreign,
U.S. federal or state law before such Class A Shares may be issued upon exchange pursuant to this Article II, the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Class A Shares to be duly registered or approved, as the case may be. The
Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to list the Class A Shares required to be delivered upon exchange prior to such delivery upon each national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system upon which the outstanding Class A Shares
may be listed or traded at the time of such delivery. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude the Issuer from satisfying its obligations in respect of the exchange of the AOG Units by delivery of Class A Shares which are held in the
treasury of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries.
Section 2.6 Taxes.
The delivery of Class A Shares upon exchange of AOG Units shall be made without charge to the Apollo Principal Holder for any stamp or
other similar tax in respect of such issuance.
Section 2.7 Ownership Certifications.
(a) Prior to a determination by the Governing
Body pursuant to Section 2.8(a) to implement the exchange procedures of Section 2.8(b), each Apollo Principal Holder shall direct (x) each Founder (or such Founder’s duly authorized personal representative) whose Group owns limited
partnership interests in BRH Holdings, L.P. through a Person that is not a natural Person and (y) each Contributing Partner (or such Contributing Partner’s duly authorized personal representative) whose Group owns limited partnership interests in AP
Professional Holdings, L.P. through a Person that is not a natural Person (i) prior to or contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement by such Apollo Principal Holder and thereafter prior to January 15 of each year, to provide to the Issuer
a schedule substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto (an “Ownership Schedule”), and (ii) to agree to promptly, and in any event within ten (10) calendar days of any change, notify the Issuer of any change in the information
provided in such Founder or Contributing Partner’s most recent Ownership Schedule with respect to their Group and to provide an updated Ownership Schedule reflecting such
17
change. Each Apollo Principal Holder shall direct each such Founder or Contributing Partner to represent and warrant to the Issuer upon
delivering an Ownership Schedule that no member of their respective Group was formed for a principal purpose of permitting the Apollo Principal Entities to satisfy the 100-partner limitation in Section 1.7704-1(h)(1)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations.
Section 2.8 Reversion to Quarterly
Exchanges; Notices, and Revocation.
(a) Implementation. If the Governing
Body determines at any time, based on the advice of nationally recognized tax counsel or a “Big Four” accounting firm, that there is a material risk that (i) the Apollo Principal Entities will be treated as having more than 100 partners within the
meaning of Section 1.7704-1(h)(1)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations (taking into account the provisions of Section 1.7704-1(h)(3) of the Treasury Regulations) or (ii) a change in, or formal interpretation of, law or publication of administrative
guidance will cause the “private placement” exception of Section 1.7704-1(h) of the Treasury Regulations not to apply to the Apollo Principal Entities, then the Governing Body shall provide written notice to all Apollo Principal Holders, Founders and
Contributing Partners (or their duly authorized personal representative) of such determination. Following the date of such notice or such other date as the Governing Body determines in its sole discretion and sets forth in such notice (the “Reversion
Date”), an Apollo Principal Holder shall be entitled only to exchange AOG Units held by such Apollo Principal Holder on any Exchange Date pursuant to an Exchange under Section 2.1(a) in accordance with the notice provisions and
procedures described in this Section 2.8 (such Exchange, a “Quarterly Exchange”) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be entitled to exchange AOG Units held by such Apollo Principal Holder pursuant to a Plan Exchange, a Non-Plan
Exchange or a Fixed Exchange unless and until the Governing Body provides written notice to all Apollo Principal Holders that the provisions of Section 2.1 and Section 2.2 with respect to a Plan Exchange, a Non-Plan Exchange or a
Fixed Exchange have been reinstated). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.8, any Plan Exchanges or Non-Plan Exchanges that are initiated on or prior to the Reversion Date shall be settled in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement without giving effect to this Section 2.8.
(b) Notice of Exchange. An Apollo
Principal Holder may exercise the right to exchange AOG Units set forth in Section 2.1(a) with respect to a Quarterly Exchange by providing a written notice of exchange no later than the applicable Notice Date to the Issuer substantially in
the form of Exhibit I hereto.
(c) Revocation.
(i) With respect to any notice of exchange
with respect to a Quarterly Exchange, an Apollo Principal Holder may irrevocably revoke any such notice in whole, but not in part, with respect to such AOG Units to be exchanged (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall apply to all AOG Units subject
to such notice) in writing on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the Exchange Date on which any AOG Units may be exchanged following the Notice Date with respect to which such notice was given, but, only in the event that the closing
trading price per share of the Class A Shares on the Stock Exchange on the Business Day immediately preceding date of revocation is at least 10% lower than the
18
closing trading price per share of the Class A Shares on the Stock Exchange on the Notice Date with respect to which such notice was given.
(ii) In addition to and not in limitation of
Section 2.8(c)(i), with respect to any notice of exchange with respect to a Quarterly Exchange for which Class A Shares issued upon exchange will be offered in an underwritten Public Offering, an Apollo Principal Holder may irrevocably revoke
any such notice in whole, but not in part, with respect to all AOG Units to be exchanged (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall apply to all AOG Units subject to such notice) in writing immediately before the pricing of the underwritten Public
Offering, but only in the event that the gross price per Class A share offered to the public is at least 10% lower than the closing trading price per share of the Class A Shares on the Stock Exchange on the Notice Date with respect to which such
notice was given.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, with respect to any notice of exchange with respect to a Quarterly Exchange (A) if no revocation shall have been made pursuant to Section 2.8(c)(i) above prior to the Business Day immediately preceding the first Exchange Date
on which any AOG Units may be exchanged following the Notice Date with respect to which such notice was given, then the ability of an Apollo Principal Holder to revoke any exchange pursuant to Section 2.8(c)(i) shall lapse and (B) no Apollo
Principal Holder that makes any revocation with respect to an Exchange Date as provided in Section 2.8(c)(i) or (ii) above may exercise the right to exchange AOG Units set forth in Section 2.1(a) in respect of any Exchange
Date in the next upcoming Quarter.
Section 2.9 Notice by Company.
The Issuer agrees to provide each Founder and Contributing Partner with the following:
(a) (i) promptly following establishment
thereof by the Issuer or its representatives, a schedule of the dates it expects to release earnings for each Quarter of a calendar year (or any shorter period for which it establishes a schedule of earnings releases) and the corresponding expected
start and end dates of the Trading Window for each such Quarter based thereon (such schedule being the “Earnings Calendar”), and (ii) prompt notice of any changes to the Earnings Calendar, including any changes to the scheduled dates included

the date(s) and, if applicable, time(s) of any opening or closure of the Trading Window for an applicable Quarter, including, in each case, any extensions, suspensions, re-openings, or delays in opening the Trading Window;
(c) prompt advance notice of any Suspension
Period (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement) applicable to any re-sale shelf registration statement under which sales of Class A Shares to be issued in an Exchange are or could be registered;
(d) prompt advance notice of any record date
established with respect to any dividend payable with respect to Class A Shares (and in any event at least five (5) Business Days prior to such record date); and

a determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in
a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 3.6 Interaction.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all
prior agreements and understandings pertaining thereto, including without limitation, the Sixth Amended & Restated Exchange Agreement.
Section 3.7 Waiver.
No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to
exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute waiver of any such breach of any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition.
Section 3.8 Submission to Jurisdiction:
Waiver of Jury Trial.
(a) Any and all disputes which cannot be
settled amicably, including any ancillary claims of any party, arising out of, relating to or in connection with the validity, negotiation, execution, interpretation, performance or non-performance of this Agreement (including the validity, scope and
enforceability of this arbitration provision) shall be finally settled by arbitration conducted by a single arbitrator in New York in accordance with the then-existing Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce. If the parties to
the dispute fail to agree on the selection of an arbitrator within thirty (30) calendar days of the receipt of the request for arbitration, the International Chamber of Commerce shall make the appointment. The arbitrator shall be a lawyer and shall
conduct the proceedings in the English language. Performance under this Agreement shall continue if reasonably possible during any arbitration proceedings.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of
paragraph (a) the Issuer may bring an action or special proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of compelling a party to arbitrate, seeking temporary or preliminary relief in aid of an arbitration hereunder, and/or enforcing
an arbitration award and, for the purposes of this paragraph (b), each Apollo Principal Holder (i) expressly consents to the application of paragraph (c) of this Section 3.8 to any such action or proceeding, (ii) agrees that proof shall not
be required that monetary damages for breach of the provisions of this Agreement would be difficult to calculate and that remedies at law would be inadequate, and (iii) irrevocably appoints the Issuer as such Apollo Principal Holder’s agents for
service of process in connection with any such action or proceeding and agrees that service of process upon such agent, who shall promptly advise such Apollo Principal Holders of any such service of process, shall be deemed in every respect effective
service of process upon the Apollo Principal Holders in any such action or proceeding.
(c) (i) EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF COURTS LOCATED IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 3.8, OR ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING ANCILLARY TO AN
ARBITRATION OR CONTEMPLATED ARBITRATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO OR CONCERNING THIS
23
AGREEMENT. Such ancillary judicial proceedings include any suit, action or proceeding to compel arbitration, to obtain temporary or
preliminary judicial relief in aid of arbitration, or to confirm an arbitration award. The parties acknowledge that the forum designated by this paragraph (c) has a reasonable relation to this Agreement, and to the parties’ relationship with one
another.
(ii) The parties hereby waive, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which they now or hereafter may have to personal jurisdiction or to the laying of venue of any such ancillary suit, action or proceeding brought in any court referred to in the preceding paragraph of
this Section 3.8 and such parties agree not to plead or claim the same.
(d) Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, this Section 3.8 shall be construed to the maximum extent possible to comply with the laws of the State of Delaware, including the Delaware Uniform Arbitration Act (10 Del. C. § 5701 et seq.) (the “Delaware
Arbitration Act”). If, nevertheless, it shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that any provision or wording of this Section 3.8, including any rules of the International Chamber of Commerce, shall be invalid or
unenforceable under the Delaware Arbitration Act, or other applicable law, such invalidity shall not invalidate all of this Section 3.8. In that case, this Section 3.8 shall be construed so as to limit any term or provision so as to
make it valid or enforceable within the requirements of the Delaware Arbitration Act or other applicable law, and, in the event such term or provision cannot be so limited, this Section 3.8 shall be construed to omit such invalid or
unenforceable provision.
Section 3.9 Counterparts.
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 3.9.
Section 3.10 Tax Treatment.
To the extent this Agreement imposes obligations upon a particular Apollo Principal Entity or APO LLC, this Agreement shall be treated
as part of the relevant Apollo Principal Entity Agreement as described in Section 761(c) of the Code and Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(h) and 1.761-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations. The parties shall report any Exchange consummated hereunder as a taxable
sale to the Issuer of AOG Units by an Apollo Principal
24
Holder. No party shall take a contrary position on any income tax return, amendment thereof or communication with a taxing authority unless otherwise
required by applicable law.
Section 3.11 Applicable Law.
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE (WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO
CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF).
