Apollo

Founded in 1990, Apollo is a leading global alternative asset manager. We are contrarian, value-oriented investors in private equity, credit-oriented capital markets and real estate, with significant distressed expertise. We have a flexible mandate in the majority of the funds we manage that enables the funds to invest opportunistically across a company’s capital structure. We raise, invest and manage funds on behalf of some of the world’s most prominent pension and endowment funds, as well as other institutional and individual investors. As of December 31, 2010, we had Assets Under Management, or “AUM,” of $67.6 billion in our private equity, capital markets and real estate businesses. Our latest private equity fund, Fund VII, held a final closing in December 2008, raising a total of $14.7 billion. Fund VII began investing in January 2008 and has deployed $7.8 billion of capital through December 31, 2010, generating gross and net IRRs of 46% and 32%, respectively, during this period. We have consistently produced attractive long-term investment returns in our private equity funds, generating a 39% gross IRR and a 26% net IRR on a compound annual basis from inception through December 31, 2010. A number of our capital markets funds have also performed well since their inception through December 31, 2010.

Apollo is led by our managing partners, Leon Black, Joshua Harris and Marc Rowan, who have worked together for more than 20 years and lead a team of 485 employees, including 171 investment professionals, as of December 31, 2010. This team possesses a broad range of transaction, financial, managerial and investment skills. We have offices in New York, Los Angeles, London, Frankfurt, Luxembourg, Singapore, Hong Kong and Mumbai. We operate our private equity, capital markets and real estate businesses in an integrated manner, which we believe distinguishes us from other alternative asset managers. Our investment professionals frequently share information across disciplines. We believe that this collaboration, including market insight, management, banking and consultant contacts, as well as investment opportunities, enables us to more successfully invest across a company’s capital structure. For a discussion of the risks associated with this approach, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Businesses—Possession of material, non-public information could prevent Apollo funds from undertaking advantageous transactions; our internal controls could fail; we could determine to establish information barriers.” This platform and the depth and experience of our investment team have enabled us to deliver strong long-term investment performance in our funds throughout a range of economic cycles. For example, Apollo’s most successful private equity funds (in terms of net IRR), Funds I, II, MIA and Fund V, were initiated during economic downturns. Funds I, II and MIA, which generated a combined gross IRR of 47% and a combined net IRR of 37% on a compound annual basis since inception through the date of the disposition of their final investment on September 30, 2004, were initiated during the economic downturn of 1990 through 1993 and Fund V, which generated a gross IRR of 62% and a net IRR of 45% on a compound annual basis since inception through December 31, 2010, was initiated during the economic downturn of 2001 through late 2003. We began investing our latest private equity fund, Fund VII, in January 2008 in the midst of the current economic downturn. Similarly, with respect to our capital markets business, our flagship Value Funds, which were launched in 2003 and 2006, have also delivered attractive returns since inception across economic cycles.

Our objective is to achieve superior long-term risk-adjusted returns for our fund investors. The majority of our investment funds are designed to invest capital over periods of seven or more years from inception, thereby allowing us to generate attractive long-term returns throughout economic cycles. Our investment approach is

value-oriented, focusing on nine core industries in which we have considerable knowledge, and emphasizing downside protection and the preservation of capital. We are frequently contrarian in our investment approach, which is reflected in a number of ways, including:

We have applied this investment philosophy over our more than 20-year history, allowing us to identify what we believe to be attractive investment opportunities, deploy capital across the balance sheet of industry leading, or “franchise,” businesses, and create value throughout economic cycles.

During the most recent global economic crisis, which we believe began in the third quarter of 2007, we have been relying on our deep industry, credit and financial structuring experience, coupled with our strengths as value-oriented, distressed investors, to deploy a significant amount of new capital. As examples of this, from the beginning of the third quarter of 2007 and through December 31, 2010, we have invested approximately $24 billion of capital across our private equity and capital markets funds focused on control distressed and buyout investments, leveraged loan portfolios and mezzanine, non-control distressed and non-performing loans. In addition, from the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2007 through December 31, 2010, the funds managed by Apollo have acquired approximately $13.5 billion in face value of distressed debt at discounts to par value and purchased approximately $30.7 billion in face value of leveraged senior loans at discounts to par value from financial institutions. Since we purchased these leveraged loan portfolios from highly motivated sellers, we were able to secure attractive long-term, low cost financing and select credits of companies well known to Apollo. The benchmark S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index, which includes a group of securities we believe is similar to those owned by our funds, had a net return of approximately 6% during the life to date performance of our leveraged loan investments (COF I and COF II), which have exceeded this benchmark.

As in prior market downturns and periods of significant volatility, we have been purchasing distressed securities and continue to opportunistically build positions in high quality companies with stressed balance sheets in industries where we have expertise such as cable, chemicals, packaging and transportation. Our approach towards investing in distressed situations often requires us to purchase particular debt securities as prices are declining, since this allows us both to reduce our average cost and accumulate sizable positions which may enhance our ability to influence any restructuring plans and maximize the value of our distressed investments. As a result, our investment approach may produce negative short-term unrealized returns in certain of the funds we manage. However, we concentrate on generating attractive, long-term, risk-adjusted realized returns for our fund investors, and we therefore do not overly depend on short-term results and quarterly fluctuations in the unrealized fair value of the holdings in our funds.

In addition to deploying capital in new investments, we have been depending on our over 20 years of experience to enhance value in the current investment portfolio of the funds we manage. We have been relying on our restructuring and capital markets experience to work proactively with our funds’ portfolio company management teams to generate cost and working capital savings, reduce capital expenditures, and optimize capital structures through several means such as debt exchange offers and the purchase of portfolio company debt at discounts to par value. For example, as of December 31, 2010, Fund VI and its underlying portfolio companies

purchased or retired approximately $18.7 billion in face value of debt and captured approximately $9.3 billion of discount to par value of debt in portfolio companies such as CEVA Logistics, Caesars Entertainment, Realogy and Momentive Performance Materials. In certain situations, such as CEVA Logistics, funds managed by Apollo are the largest owner of the total outstanding debt of the portfolio company. In addition to the attractive return profile associated with these portfolio company debt purchases, we believe that building positions as senior creditors within the existing portfolio companies is strategic to the existing equity ownership positions. Additionally, the portfolio companies of Fund VI have implemented approximately $3.0 billion of cost savings programs on an aggregate basis from the date we acquired them through December 31, 2010, which we believe will positively impact their operating profitability.

Since the beginning of 2007, we have experienced significant globalization and expansion of our investment management activities. We have grown our global network by opening offices in Frankfurt, Luxembourg, Singapore, Hong Kong and Mumbai. During this period through December 31, 2010, we have also launched a new private equity fund, a new strategic investment account investing in commercial mortgage backed securities and a commercial real estate finance company, as well as several new capital markets funds and leveraged investment vehicles. In addition, we completed the acquisition of a real estate investment management group. These vehicles had a combined AUM of $43.9 billion as of December 31, 2010. In addition, in order to more fully leverage our long history of investing in the real estate sector, we continue to hire senior members of the real estate team. Similar to the growth and evolution of our real estate business, we expect to continue to grow our company by applying our value-oriented approach across related investment categories which we believe have synergies with our core business and provide attractive opportunities for us to continue to expand our equity base.

We had total AUM of $67.6 billion as of December 31, 2010, consisting of $38.8 billion in our private equity business, $22.3 billion in our capital markets business and $6.5 billion in our real estate business. We have grown our total AUM at a 34.7% compound annual growth rate, or “CAGR,” from $11.3 billion at December 31, 2004 to $67.6 billion at December 31, 2010. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Businesses—We may not be successful in raising new funds or in raising more capital for certain of our funds and may face pressure on fee arrangements of our future funds.” In addition, we benefit from mandates with long-term capital commitments in our private equity, capital markets and real estate businesses. Our long-lived capital base allows us to invest assets with a long-term focus, which is an important component in generating attractive returns for our investors. We believe our long-term capital also leaves us well-positioned during economic downturns, when the fundraising environment for alternative assets has historically been more challenging than during periods of economic expansion. As of December 31, 2010, approximately 91% of our AUM was in funds with a contractual life at inception of seven years or more, and 10% was in permanent capital vehicles with unlimited duration, as highlighted in the chart below:

We expect our growth in AUM to continue over time by seeking to create value in our funds’ existing private equity, capital markets and real estate investments, continuing to deploy our available capital in what we

believe are attractive investment opportunities, and raising new funds and investment vehicles as market opportunities present themselves. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Businesses—We may not be successful in raising new funds or in raising more capital for certain of our funds and may face pressure on fee arrangements of our future funds.”

Our Businesses

We have three business segments: private equity, capital markets and real estate. We also manage (i) AAA, a publicly listed permanent capital vehicle, which invests substantially all of its capital in or alongside Apollo-sponsored entities, funds, and other investments, and (ii) several strategic investment accounts established to facilitate investments by third-party investors directly in Apollo-sponsored funds and other transactions. We may also seek to raise natural resources funds that target global private equity opportunities in energy, metals and mining and select other natural resources sub-sectors. The diagram below summarizes our current businesses:

As a global alternative asset manager, we earn ongoing management and transaction and advisory fees. We also earn income based on the performance of our funds, and investment income from our investments as general partner and other direct investments. Carried interest from our private equity, certain of our capital markets and certain of our real estate funds allocates to us a portion of the investment gains that are generated on third-party capital that we invest and typically equals 20% of the returns generated after returning invested capital and fund expenses, and subject to preferred returns to the fund’s limited partners. Our ability to generate carried interest is an important element of our business and has historically accounted for a significant portion of our income.

Our financial results are highly variable, since carried interest (which generally constitutes a large portion of the income from the funds we manage), and the transaction and advisory fees that we receive, can vary significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year. We manage our business and monitor our performance with a focus on long-term performance, an approach that mirrors the investment horizons of the funds we manage and is driven by the investment returns of our funds.

Private Equity

Our private equity business had total and fee-generating AUM of $38.8 billion and $27.9 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2010. Our private equity business grew total and fee-generating AUM by a 25.9% and 37.3% CAGR, respectively, from December 31, 2004 through December 31, 2010. From our inception in 1990 through December 31, 2010, our private equity business invested approximately $34.6 billion of equity capital. As of December 31, 2010, our private equity funds had $10.3 billion of available capital commitments, providing us with a significant source of capital for future investment activities. Since inception through December 31, 2010, the returns of our private equity funds have performed in the top quartile for all U.S. buyout funds, as measured by Thomson Financial, and have outperformed the top quartile by over two times on average. Our private equity funds have generated a gross IRR of 39% and a net IRR of 26% on a compound annual basis from inception through December 31, 2010, as compared with a total annualized return of 7% for the S&P 500 Index over the same period. See “—The Historical Investment Performance of Our Funds” for reasons why our historical private equity returns are not indicative of the future results you should expect from our current or future funds or from us.

As a result of our long history of private equity investing across market cycles, we believe we have developed a unique set of skills which we rely on to make new investments and to maximize the value of our existing investments. As an example, through our experience with traditional private equity buyouts, we apply a highly disciplined approach towards structuring and executing transactions, the key tenets of which include acquiring companies at below industry average purchase price multiples, and establishing flexible capital structures with long-term debt maturities and few, if any, financial maintenance covenants.

We believe we have a demonstrated ability to quickly adapt to changing market environments and capitalize on market dislocations through our traditional and distressed buyout approach. In prior periods of strained financial liquidity and economic recession, our private equity funds have made attractive investments by buying the debt of quality businesses (which we refer to as “classic” distressed debt), converting that debt to equity, seeking to create value through active engagement with management and ultimately monetizing the investment. This combination of traditional buyout investing with a “distressed option” has been deployed through prior economic cycles and has allowed our funds to achieve attractive long-term rates of return in different economic and market environments. In addition, during prior economic downturns we have relied on our restructuring experience and worked closely with our funds’ portfolio companies to maximize the value of our funds’ investments. For example, during the economic downturn during 2001-2003, we successfully restructured several of the portfolio companies in Fund IV that were experiencing financial difficulties, and as a result, Fund IV was able to generate a gross IRR of 11% and a net IRR of 9% on a compound annual basis from inception through December 31, 2010. During this same time period, we relied on our credit market expertise to deploy approximately 54% of the capital from Fund V, primarily in distressed for control situations, and this fund generated a gross IRR of 62% and a net IRR of 45% on a compound annual basis as of December 31, 2010. See “—The Historical Investment Performance of Our Funds” for a discussion of the reasons we do not believe our future IRRs will be similar to the IRRs for Fund V.

Capital Markets

Since Apollo’s founding in 1990, we believe our capital markets expertise has served as an integral component of our company’s growth and success. Our credit-oriented capital markets operations commenced in 1990 with the management of a $3.5 billion high-yield bond and leveraged loan portfolio. Since that time, our capital markets activities have grown significantly, and leverage Apollo’s integrated platform and utilize the same disciplined, value-oriented investment philosophy that we employ with respect to our private equity funds. Our capital markets operations are led by James Zelter, who has served as the managing partner of the capital markets business since April 2006. Our capital markets business had total and fee-generating AUM of $22.3 billion and $16.5 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2010 and grew its total and fee-generating AUM by a 55.8% and 48.5% CAGR, respectively, from December 31, 2004 through December 31, 2010.

Our credit-oriented capital markets funds have been established to capitalize upon our investment experience and deep industry expertise. We seek to participate in capital markets businesses where we believe our industry expertise and experience can be used to generate attractive investment returns. As depicted in the chart below, our capital markets activities span a broad range of the credit spectrum, including non-performing loans, distressed debt, mezzanine debt, senior bank loans and “value-oriented” fixed income.

The value-oriented fixed income segment of the capital markets spectrum is the most recent investment area for Apollo, and it is characterized by its ability to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns relative to traditional fixed income investments. An example of our value-oriented fixed income investments is Athene Asset Management LLC, or “Athene Asset Management.” We established Athene Asset Management, which is substantially owned by a subsidiary of Apollo, to provide asset management services to Athene Life Re Ltd., or “Athene Life Re,” and other third parties. Athene Life Re is an Apollo sponsored vehicle formed to focus on opportunities in the life reinsurance sector. Athene Life Re sources, analyzes and negotiates the acquisition of fixed annuity policies from primary insurance companies. As of December 31, 2010, Athene Asset Management had approximately $2.0 billion of AUM, $0.3 billion of which was included in our real estate segment.

As of December 31, 2010, our capital markets funds included six distressed and event-driven hedge funds with total AUM of $2.8 billion, three mezzanine funds with total AUM of $4.5 billion, seven senior credit funds with total AUM of $11.2 billion, and a European non-performing loan fund with total AUM of $1.9 billion. Our capital markets segment includes strategic investment accounts and also Athene Asset Management.

Distressed and Event-Driven Hedge Funds

We currently manage six distressed and event-driven hedge funds with total AUM of $2.8 billion as of December 31, 2010 that primarily invest in North America, Europe and Asia. Our distressed and event-driven hedge funds utilize similar valued-oriented investment philosophies as our private equity business and are focused on capitalizing on our substantial industry and credit knowledge. Our distressed and event-driven hedge funds employ similar investment strategies, seeking to identify and capitalize on absolute-value driven investment opportunities. Utilizing flexible investment strategies, these funds primarily focus on investments in distressed companies before, during and after a restructuring, as well as undervalued securities. Investments are executed primarily through the purchase or sale of senior secured bank debt, second lien debt, high yield debt, trade claims, credit derivatives, preferred stock and equity.

Mezzanine Funds

We manage U.S. and European-based mezzanine funds and related investment vehicles with total AUM of $4.5 billion as of December 31, 2010. AIC, a U.S.-based permanent capital vehicle, is a publicly traded, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development

company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the “Investment Company Act,” and to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the “Internal Revenue Code.” AIC’s primary focus is to generate both current income and capital appreciation primarily through investments in subordinated debt, as well as by making investments in certain senior secured loans and/or equity in private middle market companies. Our European mezzanine funds, which are unregistered private closed-end investment funds, were established to more fully capitalize upon mezzanine and subordinated debt opportunities with a primary focus in Western Europe.

Senior Credit Funds

We manage seven senior credit funds with total AUM of $11.2 billion as of December 31, 2010. We began to establish these funds, which are primarily oriented towards the acquisition of leveraged loans and other performing senior debt, in late 2007 and 2008, with some of our largest investors in order to capitalize upon the supply-demand imbalances in the leveraged finance market. Since that time, we have been actively investing these funds and have established new senior credit funds. Our senior credit funds together with our private equity funds and certain other capital markets funds, as of December 31, 2010, have deployed approximately $27.4 billion, including leverage, in senior credit investments. We believe these funds benefit from the broad range of investment opportunities that arise as a result of our deep industry and credit expertise. As the opportunity set continues to evolve, we expect we will continue to offer this fund series to capitalize primarily upon senior credit opportunities in the market.

Non-Performing Loan Fund

In May 2007, we launched a European non-performing loan fund. Non-performing loans, or “NPLs,” are loans held by financial institutions that are in default of principal or interest payments for 90 days or more. We estimate that the size of the European NPL market is more than €1 trillion. Investment banks have traditionally been the biggest buyers of NPLs, but almost all of these firms either no longer exist or have exited the business during the past few years. In addition, despite the market size and decrease in natural competition, high barriers to entry have limited, and we believe will continue to limit, the amount of credible competitors. The fund has €1.3 billion ($1.7 billion using an exchange rate of €1.00 to $1.34 as of December 31, 2010) in total equity commitments. As of December 31, 2010, the fund has portfolio investments throughout Europe with its largest concentration in the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain and Portugal.

Real Estate

We have assembled a dedicated team to pursue real estate investment opportunities, which we refer to as Apollo Global Real Estate, or “AGRE,” and which we believe benefits from Apollo’s long-standing history of investing in real estate-related sectors such as hotels and lodging, leisure and logistics. AGRE, which includes 38 investment professionals as of December 31, 2010, is led by Joseph Azrack, who joined Apollo in 2008 with 30 years of real estate investment management experience, serving most recently as President and CEO of Citi Property Investors.

We believe our dedicated real estate platform benefits from, and contributes to, Apollo’s integrated platform, and further expands Apollo’s deep real estate industry knowledge and relationships. As of December 31, 2010, our real estate business had total and fee-generating AUM of approximately $6.5 billion and $2.7 billion, respectively.

In addition to the funds described below, we may seek to serve as the manager of, or sponsor, a series of real estate funds that focus on other opportunistic investments in distressed debt and equity recapitalization transactions, including corporate real estate, distress for control situations and the acquisition and recapitalization of real estate portfolios, platforms and operating companies, including non-performing and deeply discounted loans.

CPI Capital Partners

On November 12, 2010, an affiliate of AGRE completed the acquisition of Citi Property Investors, or “CPI,” the real estate investment management group of Citigroup Inc. CPI had AUM of approximately $3.6 billion as of December 31, 2010. CPI is an integrated real estate investment platform with investment professionals located in Asia, Europe and North America. As part of the acquisition, Apollo acquired general partner interests in, and advisory agreements with, various real estate investment funds and co-invest vehicles and added to its team of real estate investment professionals.

Apollo Commercial Real Estate Finance, Inc.

In 2009, we launched Apollo Commercial Real Estate Finance, Inc. (NYSE: ARI), or “ARI,” a real estate investment trust managed by Apollo that acquires, originates, invests in and manages performing commercial first mortgage loans, commercial mortgage backed securities, or “CMBS,” mezzanine investments and other commercial real estate-related investments in the United States. As of September 30, 2010, ARI had total AUM of approximately $1.0 billion.

AGRE CMBS Fund L.P.

In December 2009, we launched AGRE CMBS Fund L.P., or “AGRE CMBS Account,” a real estate strategic investment account formed to invest principally in CMBS and leverage those investments by borrowing from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility, or the “TALF Program,” and repurchase facilities. As of December 31, 2010, the AGRE CMBS Account had total AUM of approximately $1.6 billion.

Strategic Investment Vehicles

In addition to the funds described above, we manage other investment vehicles, including AAA and Palmetto, which have been established to invest either directly in or alongside certain of our funds and certain other transactions that we sponsor and manage.

AP Alternative Assets, L.P. (AAA)

AAA issued approximately $1.9 billion of equity capital in its initial offering in June 2006 to invest alongside certain of our private equity funds and directly in certain of our capital markets funds and certain other transactions that we sponsor and manage. The common units of AAA, which represent limited partner interests, are listed on Euronext Amsterdam. Since its formation, AAA has allowed us to quickly target certain investment opportunities by capitalizing new investment vehicles formed by Apollo in advance of a lengthier third-party fundraising process. AAA Investments was the initial investor in one of our mezzanine funds, two of our distressed and event-driven hedge funds, our non-performing loan fund and one of our senior credit funds. AAA Investments’ current portfolio also includes private equity co-investments in Fund VI and Fund VII portfolio companies, certain opportunistic investments and temporary cash investments. AAA may also invest in additional funds and other opportunistic investments identified by Apollo Alternative Assets, L.P., the investment manager of AAA. As of December 31, 2010, AAA Investments had total investments of approximately $1.8 billion.

Strategic Investment Accounts

Institutional investors are expressing increasing levels of interest in SIAs since these accounts can provide investors with greater levels of transparency, liquidity and control over their investments as compared to more traditional investment funds. Based on the trends we are currently witnessing among a select group of large

institutional investors, we expect our AUM that is managed through SIAs to continue to grow over time. As of December 31, 2010, approximately $6.6 billion of our total AUM and $4.8 billion of our fee-generating AUM was managed through SIAs.

One example of a SIA managed by Apollo is Palmetto, which we manage on behalf of a single investor. As of December 31, 2010, the total capital commitments to Palmetto were $759.0 million, which included a capital commitment of $750.0 million from one institutional investor that is a large state pension fund and $9.0 million of current commitments from Apollo. Palmetto was established to facilitate investments by such third-party investor directly in our private equity and capital markets funds and certain other transactions that we sponsor and manage. As of December 31, 2010, Palmetto had committed approximately $660.1 million for investments primarily in certain of our capital markets and private equity funds.

Competitive Strengths

Over our more than 20-year history, we have grown to be one of the largest alternative asset managers in the world, which we attribute to the following competitive strengths:

Growth Strategy

Our growth and investment returns have been supported by an institutionalized and strategic organizational structure designed to promote teamwork, industry specialization, longevity of capital, compliance and regulatory excellence and internal systems and processes. Our ability to grow our AUM and revenues depends on our performance and on our ability to attract new capital and fund investors, which we have done successfully over the last 20 years.

The following are key elements of our growth strategy:

We cannot assure you that our funds or our current businesses will be successful in raising the capital described above or that any capital they do raise will be on terms favorable to us or consistent with terms of capital that they have previously raised. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Businesses—We may not be successful in raising new funds or in raising more capital for certain of our funds and may face pressure on fee arrangements of our future funds” and “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Businesses—Changes in the debt financing markets have negatively impacted the ability of our funds and their portfolio companies to obtain attractive financing for their investments and have increased the cost of such financing if it is obtained, which could lead to lower-yielding investments and potentially decreasing our net income” for a more detailed discussion of the risks.

Performance Results

Our revenues and other income consist principally of (i) management fees, which are based upon a percentage of the committed or invested capital (in the case of our private equity funds and certain of our capital markets and real estate funds), adjusted assets (in the case of AAA), gross invested capital or fund net asset value (in the case of the rest of our capital markets funds), stockholders’ equity (in the case of ARI) or the capital accounts of the limited partners (in the case of AGRE CMBS Account), (ii) transaction and advisory fees received from private equity and certain capital markets portfolio companies in respect of business and transaction consulting services that we provide, as well as advisory services provided to a capital markets fund, (iii) income based on the performance of our funds, which consists of allocations, distributions or fees from our private equity funds, AAA and our capital markets funds, and (iv) investment income from our investments as general partner and other direct investments primarily in the form of net gains from investment activities as well as interest and dividend income. Carried interest from our private equity funds and certain of our capital markets and real estate funds entitles us to an allocation of a portion of the income and gains from that fund and is as much as 20% of the net realized income and gains that are achieved by the funds net of fund expenses, generally subject to an annual preferred return for the limited partners, which varies by fund, with a “catch-up” allocation to us thereafter. The general partner of each of the funds accrues for its portion of carried interest at each balance sheet date for any changes in value of the funds’ underlying investments. For example, if one of our private equity funds were to exceed the preferred return threshold and generate $100 million of profits net of allocable fees and expenses from a given investment, our carried interest would entitle us to receive as much as $20 million of these net profits less appropriate compensation expense for our investment professionals.

Carried interest from most of our capital markets funds is as much as 20% of either the fund’s income and gain or the yearly appreciation of the fund’s net asset value. For such capital markets funds, we accrue carried interest on both realized and unrealized gains, subject to any applicable hurdles and high-water marks. Certain of our capital markets funds are subject to a preferred return. Our ability to generate carried interest is an important element of our business and has historically accounted for a very significant portion of our income. For the year ended December 31, 2010, transaction and advisory fees, management fees and carried interest income represented 3.8%, 20.4% and 75.8%, respectively, of our $2,109.9 million of revenues. See our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.

In considering the performance information contained in this prospectus, prospective Class A shareholders should bear in mind that such performance information is not indicative of the possible performance of our Class A shares. An investment in our Class A shares is not an investment in any of the Apollo funds, and the assets and revenues of our funds are not directly available to us. As a result of the deconsolidation of most of our funds, we will not be consolidating those funds in our financial statements for periods after either August 1, 2007 or November 30, 2007. Upon adoption of the amended consolidation guidance on January 1, 2010, we are consolidating certain entities. We continue to monitor all entities to determine if we are required to consolidate any additional entities.

The Private Offering Transactions and the Strategic Investors Transaction

On August 8, 2007, in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the “Securities Act,” we sold 27,000,000 Class A shares, at an initial offering price of $24 per share, to (i) Goldman, Sachs & Co., J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and Credit Suisse (USA) LLC, which we refer to as the “initial purchasers,” for their resale to qualified institutional buyers that are also qualified purchasers in reliance upon Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and (ii) accredited investors, with the initial purchasers acting as placement agents, in a private placement, as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act. The initial purchasers exercised their over-allotment option and on September 5, 2007, we sold an additional 2,824,540 Class A shares to the initial purchasers at the price of $24 per share. We refer to this exempt sale of Class A shares to the initial purchasers and to accredited investors as the “Rule 144A Offering.” We entered into a registration rights agreement with the initial purchasers in the Rule 144A Offering, pursuant to which we undertook to register under the Securities Act the Class A shares sold in the Rule 144A Offering. All of the Class A shares being offered by the selling shareholders in this offering were issued in the Rule 144A Offering.

In connection with the Rule 144A Offering, on July 16, 2007, we entered into a purchase agreement with Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, one of the Rule 144A Offering initial purchasers, pursuant to which Credit Suisse Management LLC, or the “CS Investor,” purchased from us in a private placement that closed concurrently with the Rule 144A Offering an aggregate of $180 million of the Class A shares at a price per share of $24, or 7,500,000 Class A shares. Pursuant to a shareholders agreement we entered into with the CS Investor, the CS Investor agreed not to sell its Class A shares for a period of one year from August 8, 2007, the closing date of the Rule 144A Offering. We entered into a registration rights agreement with the CS Investor in connection with the private placement transaction pursuant to which we undertook to register under the Securities Act the Class A shares sold therein. We refer to our sale of Class A shares to the CS Investor as the “Private Placement” and to the Private Placement and the Rule 144A Offering collectively as the “Private Offering Transactions.”

On July 13, 2007, we sold securities to the California Public Employees’ Retirement System, or “CalPERS,” and an affiliate of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, or “ADIA,” in return for a total investment of $1.2 billion. We refer to CalPERS and ADIA as the “Strategic Investors.” Upon completion of the Private Offering Transactions, the securities that we sold to the Strategic Investors converted into non-voting Class A shares. We refer to the foregoing issuance of securities, our use of proceeds from that sale and the conversion of such securities into non-voting Class A shares as the “Strategic Investors Transaction.” Pursuant to a lenders rights agreement we have entered into with the Strategic Investors, the Strategic Investors have agreed not to sell any of their Class A shares for a period of two years after the date on which the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part becomes effective, or the “registration effectiveness date,” subject to limited exceptions. Thereafter, the amount of Class A shares they may sell is subject to a limit that increases with each year. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Lenders Rights Agreement—Transfer Restrictions.” The Strategic Investors are two of the largest alternative asset investors in the world and have been significant investors with us in multiple funds covering a variety of strategies. In total, from our inception through the date hereof, the Strategic Investors have invested or committed to invest approximately $7.6 billion of capital in us and our funds. The Strategic Investors have been significant supporters of our integrated platform, with one or both having invested in multiple private equity and capital markets funds. The Strategic Investors have no obligation to invest further in our funds, and any future investments by the Strategic Investors in our funds or other alternative investment categories will likely depend on the performance of our funds, the performance of each Strategic Investor’s overall investment portfolio and other investment opportunities available to them.

Structure and Formation of the Company

Apollo Global Management, LLC is a holding company whose primary assets are 100% of the general partner interests in each limited partnership included in the Apollo Operating Group, which is described below under “—Holding Company Structure.” Immediately after the offering, 33.5% of the limited partner interests of the Apollo Operating Group entities will be held by Apollo Global Management, LLC through intermediate holding companies, and the remaining 66.5% of the limited partner interests of the Apollo Operating Group entities will be owned directly by Holdings, an entity 100% owned, directly or indirectly, by our managing partners and contributing partners. The limited partner interests that the company and Holdings own in the Apollo Operating Group entities represent the company’s and Holdings’ economic interests in the Apollo Operating Group. With limited exceptions, the Apollo Operating Group owns each of the operating entities included in our historical consolidated and combined financial statements as described below under “—Our Assets.”

Apollo Global Management, LLC is owned by its Class A and Class B shareholders. Holders of our Class A shares and Class B share vote as a single class on all matters presented to the shareholders, although the Strategic Investors do not have voting rights in respect of any of their Class A shares. We have issued to BRH Holdings GP, Ltd., or “BRH,” a single Class B share solely for purposes of granting voting power to BRH. BRH is the general partner of Holdings and is a Cayman Islands exempted company owned and controlled by our managing partners. The Class B share does not represent an economic interest in Apollo Global Management, LLC. The voting power of the Class B share, however, increases or decreases with corresponding changes in Holdings’ economic interest in the Apollo Operating Group.

Our shareholders vote together as a single class on the limited set of matters on which shareholders have a vote. Such matters include a proposed sale of all or substantially all of our assets, certain mergers and consolidations, certain amendments to our operating agreement and an election by our manager to dissolve the company.

We intend to preserve our current management structure with strong central control by our managing partners and to maintain our focus on achieving successful growth over the long term. This desire to preserve our existing management structure is one of the principal reasons why upon listing of our Class A shares on the NYSE, if achieved, we have decided to avail ourselves of the “controlled company” exception from certain of the NYSE governance rules. This exception eliminates the requirements that we have a majority of independent directors on our board of directors and that we have a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee composed entirely of independent directors. It is also the reason that the managing partners chose to have a manager that manages all of our operations and activities, with only limited powers retained by the board of directors, as long as the Apollo control condition, which is discussed below under “—Our Manager,” is satisfied.

We refer to the formation of the Apollo Operating Group described below under “—Holding Company Structure,” “—Our Manager,” “—Our Assets” and “—Equity Interests Retained by Our Managing Partners and Contributing Partners,” the deconsolidation of most Apollo funds described below under “—Deconsolidation of Apollo Funds” and the borrowing under the AMH credit facility and the related distribution to our managing partners described below under “—Distribution to Our Managing Partners Prior to the Private Offering Transactions,” collectively, as the “Reorganization.”

Prior to the Reorganization, our business was conducted through a number of entities as to which there was no single holding entity but that were separately owned by our managing partners. In order to facilitate the Rule 144A Offering, which closed in August 2007, we effected the Reorganization to form a new holding company structure. Additional entities were formed during 2008 to create our current holding company structure.

The diagram below depicts our current organizational structure (see “Our Structure” for a more detailed diagram).

Holding Company Structure

Apollo Global Management, LLC, through three intermediate holding companies (APO Corp., APO Asset Co., LLC and APO (FC), LLC), will own 33.5% of the economic interests of, and operates and controls all of the businesses and affairs of, the Apollo Operating Group and its subsidiaries immediately after the offering. Holdings will own the remaining 66.5% of the economic interests in the Apollo Operating Group immediately after the offering. Apollo Global Management, LLC consolidates the financial results of the Apollo Operating Group and its consolidated subsidiaries. Holdings’ ownership interest in the Apollo Operating Group is reflected as Non-Controlling Interests in Apollo Global Management, LLC’s consolidated financial statements.

Each of the Apollo Operating Group partnerships holds interests in different businesses or entities organized in different jurisdictions. For a more detailed description of our holding company structure, see “Our Structure— Reorganization—Holding Company Structure.”

Our structure is designed to accomplish a number of objectives, the most important of which are as follows:

Our Manager

Our operating agreement provides that so long as the Apollo Group (as defined in “Our Structure—Reorganization—Our Manager”) beneficially owns at least 10% of the aggregate number of votes that may be cast by holders of outstanding voting shares, our manager, which is 100% owned by BRH, will conduct, direct and manage all activities of Apollo Global Management, LLC. We refer to the Apollo Group’s beneficial ownership of at least 10% of such voting power as the “Apollo control condition.” So long as the Apollo control condition is satisfied, our manager will manage all of our operations and activities and will have discretion over significant corporate actions, such as the issuance of securities, payment of distributions, sales of assets, making certain amendments to our operating agreement and other matters, and our board of directors will have no authority other than that which our manager chooses to delegate to it. See “Description of Shares.”

Holders of our Class A shares and Class B share have no right to elect our manager, which is controlled by our managing partners through BRH. Although our manager has no business activities other than the management of our businesses, conflicts of interest may arise in the future between us and our Class A shareholders, on the one hand, and our managing partners, on the other. The resolution of these conflicts may not always be in our best interests or those of our Class A shareholders. We describe the potential conflicts of interest in greater detail under “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Organization and Structure—Potential conflicts of interest may arise among our manager, on the one hand, and us and our shareholders on the other hand. Our manager and its affiliates have limited fiduciary duties to us and our shareholders, which may permit them to favor their own interests to the detriment of us and our shareholders.” We will reimburse our manager and its affiliates for all costs incurred in managing and operating us, and our operating agreement provides that our manager will determine the expenses that are allocable to us. Our operating agreement does not limit the amount of expenses for which we will reimburse our manager and its affiliates.

Our Assets

Prior to the Private Offering Transactions, our managing partners contributed to the Apollo Operating Group their interests in each of the entities included in our historical consolidated and combined financial statements, but excluding the “excluded assets” described under “Our Structure—Reorganization—Excluded Assets.” As discussed further below, the managing partners received partnership interests in Holdings (representing an indirect ownership interest of an equivalent number of Apollo Operating Group units) in respect of the interests they contributed to the Apollo Operating Group.

Certain assets were not contributed to the Apollo Global Management, LLC structure as these assets were either at the end of their life (e.g., general partners of Funds I, II and III) or these assets were owned by the managing partners and the contributing partners. The managing partners chose which assets were to be included in the Apollo Global Management, LLC structure. Except for the general partners of Funds I, II and III, none of the excluded assets were included in the combined financial statements of the Apollo Operating Group prior to the Reorganization. As a result of the Reorganization, the general partner interests were treated as distributions to the managing partners and other Reorganization adjustments in the “Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity and Partners’ Capital.” See our consolidated and combined financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.

The following is a condensed list of excluded assets from the Reorganization (for a more detailed description, see “Our Structure—Reorganization—Excluded Assets”);

In addition, prior to the Private Offering Transactions, our contributing partners contributed to the Apollo Operating Group a portion of their rights to receive a portion of the management fees and incentive income that are earned from management of our funds, or “points.” We refer to such contributed points as “partner- contributed interests.” In return for a contribution of points, each contributing partner received an interest in Holdings (representing an indirect, unit-for-unit ownership interest of an equivalent number of Apollo Operating Group units). For a more detailed description of the assets that were contributed, see “Our Structure—Reorganization—Our Assets.”

Equity Interests Retained by Our Managing Partners and Contributing Partners

In exchange for the contribution of assets described above and after giving effect to the Strategic Investor Transactions, Holdings (which is owned by BRH and the contributing partners) received 80.0% of the limited partnership units in the Apollo Operating Group. We use the terms “Apollo Operating Group unit” or “unit in/of Apollo Operating Group” to refer to a limited partnership unit in each of the Apollo Operating Group partnerships. We refer to the managing partners’ and contributing partners’ contribution of assets to the Apollo Operating Group and Holdings’ receipt of Apollo Operating Group units in exchange therefor as the “Apollo Operating Group Formation.” Our managing partners, through their interests in BRH and Holdings, will own 58.4% of the Apollo Operating Group units and, through their ownership of BRH, the Class B share that we have issued to BRH, in each case immediately after the offering.

Our contributing partners, through their interests in Holdings, will own 8.1% of the Apollo Operating Group units immediately after the offering. For a more detailed discussion of the terms surrounding the retained interests, see “Our Structure—Reorganization—Equity Interests Retained by Our Managing Partners and Contributing Partners.”

Deconsolidation of Apollo Funds

Certain of our private equity and capital markets funds have historically been consolidated into our financial statements, due to our controlling interest in certain funds notwithstanding that we have only a non-controlling equity interest in these funds. Consequently, our pre-Reorganization financial statements do not reflect our ownership interest at fair value in these funds, but rather reflect on a gross basis the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of our funds. We amended the governing documents of most of our funds to provide that a simple majority of the funds’ unaffiliated investors have the right to liquidate that fund. These amendments, which became effective on either August 1, 2007 or November 30, 2007, deconsolidated these funds that have historically been consolidated in our financial statements. Accordingly, we no longer reflect the share that other parties own in total assets and Non-Controlling Interests in these respective funds. The deconsolidation of these funds will present our financial statements in a manner consistent with how Apollo evaluates its business and the related risks. Accordingly, we believe that deconsolidating these funds will provide investors with a better understanding of our business.

Tax Considerations

We believe that under current law, Apollo Global Management, LLC is treated as a partnership and not as a corporation for U.S. Federal income tax purposes. An entity that is treated as a partnership for U.S. Federal income tax purposes is not a taxable entity and incurs no U.S. Federal income tax liability. Instead, each partner is required to take into account its allocable share of items of income, gain, loss and deduction of the partnership in computing its U.S. Federal income tax liability, regardless of whether cash distributions are then made. Investors in this offering will be deemed to be limited partners of Apollo Global Management, LLC for U.S. Federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, an investor will generally be required to pay U.S. Federal income taxes with respect to the income and gain of Apollo Global Management, LLC that is allocated to such investor, even if Apollo Global

Management, LLC does not make cash distributions. See “Material Tax Considerations—Material U.S. Federal Tax Considerations” for a summary discussing certain U.S. Federal income tax considerations related to the purchase, ownership and disposition of our Class  A shares as of the date of this offering.

Distribution to Our Managing Partners Prior to the Private Offering Transactions

On April 20, 2007, AMH, one of the entities in the Apollo Operating Group, entered into a credit facility, or the “AMH credit facility,” under which AMH borrowed a $1.0 billion variable-rate term loan. We used these borrowings to make a $986.6 million distribution to our managing partners and to pay related fees and expenses. This distribution was a distribution of prior undistributed earnings, and an advance on possible future earnings, of AMH. As a result, this distribution caused the managing partners’ accumulated equity basis in AMH to become negative. As of the date hereof, the AMH credit facility is guaranteed by Apollo Management, L.P.; Apollo Capital Management, L.P.; Apollo International Management, L.P.; Apollo Principal Holdings II, L.P.; Apollo Principal Holdings IV, L.P.; Apollo Principal Holdings V, L.P.; Apollo Principal Holdings IX, L.P.; and AAA Holdings, L.P. and had an original maturity date of April 20, 2014. The AMH credit facility was amended on December 20, 2010, allowing extension of the maturity date of a portion of the loans to January 3, 2017. See “Description of Indebtedness” for details of the AMH credit facility. It is secured by (i) a first priority lien on substantially all assets of AMH and the guarantors and (ii) a pledge of the equity interests of each of the guarantors, in each case subject to customary carveouts.

Distributions to Our Managing Partners and Contributing Partners Related to the Reorganization

We made distributions to our managing partners and contributing partners that represented all of the undistributed earnings generated by the businesses contributed to the Apollo Operating Group prior to July 13, 2007. For this purpose, income attributable to carried interest on private equity funds related to either carry-generating transactions that closed prior to July 13, 2007 or carry-generating transactions in respect of which a definitive agreement was executed, but that did not close, prior to July 13, 2007 were treated as having been earned prior to that date. Undistributed earnings of the contributed businesses through the date of the Reorganization that were attributable to the managing partners and contributing partners for the sold portion of their interest were $238.4 million and $148.6 million, respectively, and were recorded in the consolidated financial statements as a component of due to affiliates and profit sharing payable, respectively. There were no undistributed earnings that were attributable to the managing partners and contributing partners for the sold portion of their interest at the December 31, 2010 and 2009 balance sheet dates.

In addition, we have also entered into a tax receivable agreement with our managing partners and contributing partners which requires us to pay them 85% of any tax savings received by APO Corp. from our step-up in tax basis. In our consolidated financial statements, the item due to affiliates includes $491.4 million and $514.0 million that was payable to our managing partners and contributing partners in connection with the tax receivable agreement as of both December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

As part of the Reorganization, the managing partners and the contributing partners received the following:

The Historical Investment Performance of Our Funds

In this “Prospectus Summary” and elsewhere in this prospectus, we present information relating to the historical performance of our funds, including certain legacy Apollo funds that do not have a meaningful amount of unrealized investments and the general partners of which have not been contributed to Apollo Global Management, LLC.

When considering the data presented in this prospectus, you should note that the historical results of our funds are not indicative of the future results that you should expect from such funds, from any future funds we may raise or from your investment in our Class A shares. An investment in our Class A shares is not an investment in any of the Apollo funds, and the assets and revenues of our funds are not directly available to us. As a result of the deconsolidation of most of our funds, we will not be consolidating those funds in our financial statements for periods after either August 1, 2007 or November 30, 2007. The historical and potential future returns of the funds we manage are not directly linked to returns on our Class A shares. Therefore, you should not conclude that continued positive performance of the funds we manage will necessarily result in positive returns on an investment in our Class A shares. However, poor performance of the funds that we manage would cause a decline in our revenue from such funds, and would therefore have a negative effect on our performance and in all likelihood the value in our Class A shares. There can be no assurance that any Apollo fund will continue to achieve the same results as historically achieved.

Moreover, the historical returns of our funds should not be considered indicative of the future results you should expect from such funds or from any future funds we may raise, in part because:

Finally, our private equity IRRs have historically varied greatly from fund to fund. For example, Fund IV has generated an 11% gross IRR and an 9% net IRR since inception through December 31, 2010, while Fund V has generated a 62% gross IRR and a 45% net IRR since inception through December 31, 2010. Accordingly, the IRR going forward for any current or future fund may vary considerably from the historical IRR generated by any particular fund, or for our private equity funds as a whole. Future returns will also be affected by the applicable risks described elsewhere in this prospectus, including risks of the industries and businesses in which a particular fund invests. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Businesses—The historical returns attributable to our funds should not be considered as indicative of the future results of our funds or of our future results or of any returns expected on an investment in our Class A shares.”

Recent Developments

On January 4, 2011, we declared a cash distribution amounting to $0.17 per Class A share, which is comprised of a regular quarterly cash distribution of $0.07 per Class A share and a special distribution of $0.10 per Class A share. The distribution was paid on January 14, 2011 to our Class A shareholders of record as of January 7, 2011.

AGRE U.S. Real Estate Fund, L.P., a newly formed closed-end private investment fund that intends to make real estate-related investments principally located in the United States, held an initial closing in January 2011 on $307.85 million of limited partner commitments (inclusive of $200 million in commitments to co-invest transactions at the option of the applicable limited partner).

On February 15, 2011, Apollo held its first close for a new fund, Financial Credit Investment I, L.P., which will opportunistically invest in longevity based assets. The first close had approximately $240 million of capital committed.

We recently formed Apollo Credit Management, LLC, a registered investment advisor, which serves as advisor to the Apollo Senior Floating Rate Fund Inc., a newly organized, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. The investment objective of the fund is to seek current income and preservation of capital primarily through investments in senior, secured loans made to companies whose debt is rated below investment grade and investments with similar economic characteristics. On February 24, 2011, the fund issued $300 million of common shares in its initial public offering and began trading on the NYSE under the symbol “AFT.”

On March 7, 2011, after having obtained shareholder approval and necessary governmental and regulatory approvals, HFA Holdings Limited, or “HFA,” issued $75 million of mandatory convertible notes, or “MCNs,” to Apollo and a co-investor pursuant to a subscription agreement entered into on December 3, 2010.

On January 7, 2011 and March 15, 2011, Apollo issued a total of 1.6 million Class A shares, in aggregate, in exchange for vested RSUs. This issuance caused the company’s ownership interest in the Apollo Operating Group to increase to 29.3% from 29.0%. As Holdings did not participate in this Class A share issuance, its ownership interest in the Apollo Operating Group decreased from 71.0% to 70.7%.

Investment Risks

An investment in our Class A shares involves a high degree of risk. Some of the more significant challenges and risks include those associated with our susceptibility to conditions in the global financial markets and global economic conditions, the volatility of our revenue, net income and cash flow, our dependence on our managing partners and other key investment professionals, our ability to retain and motivate our existing investment professionals and recruit, retain and motivate new investment professionals in the future and risks associated with adverse changes in tax law and other legislative or regulatory changes. See “Risk Factors” for a discussion of the factors you should consider before investing in our Class A shares.

Summary Historical and Other Data

The following summary historical consolidated financial and other data of Apollo Global Management, LLC should be read together with “Our Structure,” “Selected Financial Data,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the historical consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus.

We derived the summary historical consolidated statements of operations data of Apollo Global Management, LLC for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 and the summary historical consolidated statements of financial condition data as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 from our consolidated financial statements, which are included elsewhere in this prospectus.

The summary historical financial data are not indicative of our expected future operating results. In particular, after undergoing the Reorganization on July 13, 2007 and providing liquidation rights to investors of most of the funds we manage on either August 1, 2007 or November 30, 2007, Apollo Global Management, LLC no longer consolidates in its financial statements the majority of the funds that have historically been consolidated in our financial statements.

The above changes in ownership interest arose in connection with our share repurchase in February 2009 and the issuance of Class A shares in settlement of vested RSUs in March, July and September 2010.

Below is a reconciliation of the Net Income (Loss) attributable to Apollo Global Management, LLC for the years ended December 31, 2010 through 2008 to ENI and ENI to Adjusted ENI for such periods:
