SUPPLEMENT NO. 1 DATED JANUARY 11, 2022

TO THE PROSPECTUS DATED DECEMBER 22, 2021

This prospectus supplement (“Supplement”) is part of and should be read in conjunction with the prospectus of Apollo Debt Solutions BDC (the “Fund”), dated December 22, 2021 (as supplemented to date, the “Prospectus”). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Supplement shall have the same meanings as in the Prospectus.

The purposes of this Supplement are as follows:

 

   

to provide an update on the status of our current public offering;

 

   

to provide an update on the Fund’s portfolio; and

 

   

to disclose the entering into of credit facility agreements.

Status of Our Current Public Offering

As previously disclosed, we have registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission a maximum of $5,000,000,000 in common shares of beneficial interest in an ongoing public offering (the “Offering”). The terms of the Offering required us to deposit all subscription proceeds in escrow with UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent, until we received subscriptions aggregating at least $100,000,000 in our common shares (excluding shares purchased by Apollo Credit Management, LLC, its affiliates and the Fund’s trustees and officers but including any shares purchased in private offerings), in any combination of share classes.

As of January 7, 2022, we had satisfied the minimum offering requirement, and our board of trustees had authorized the release of proceeds from escrow. As of such date, we issued and sold 26,260,912.24 shares (consisting entirely of Class I shares; no Class S or Class D shares were issued or sold as of such date), and the escrow agent released net proceeds of approximately $657 million to us as payment for such shares. Apollo and its employees, including our executive officers, owned approximately $3 million of interests in the Fund as of January 7, 2022. We intend to continue selling shares in the Offering on a monthly basis.

Portfolio Update

As of January 10, 2022, there were 43 Portfolio Investments that the Financing Provider purchased having an aggregate cost of $414 million and an aggregate fair market value of $414 million. As of January 10, 2022, there were no additional Portfolio Investments that the Financing Provider committed to purchasing.

Credit Facility Agreements

Mallard Funding Credit Facility

On January 7, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), Mallard Funding LLC (“Mallard Funding”), a Delaware limited liability company and newly formed subsidiary of the Fund, entered into a Loan and Servicing Agreement (the “Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement”), with Mallard Funding, as borrower, the Fund, in its capacity as servicer and in its capacity as transferor, the lenders from time to time parties thereto, Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent, and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, National Association, as collateral agent, account bank and collateral custodian. From time to time, the Fund expects to sell and contribute certain investments to Mallard Funding pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date, by and between the Fund and Mallard Funding. No gain or loss will be recognized as a result of the contribution. Proceeds from the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement will be used to finance the origination and acquisition of eligible assets by Mallard Funding, including the purchase of such assets from the Fund. The Fund retains a residual interest in assets contributed to or acquired by Mallard Funding through our ownership of Mallard Funding. The maximum principal amount of the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement as of the Closing Date is $500 million, which can be drawn in multiple currencies subject to certain conditions; the availability of this amount is subject to the borrowing base, which is determined on the basis of the value and types of Mallard Funding’s assets from time to time, and satisfaction of certain conditions, including certain concentration limits.

The Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement provides for the ability to draw and redraw revolving loans under the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement for a period of up to three years after the Closing Date unless the commitments are terminated sooner as provided in the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement (the “Mallard Funding Commitment Termination Date”). Unless otherwise terminated, the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement will mature on the date which is five years after the Closing Date (the “Mallard Funding Final Maturity Date”). Prior to the Mallard Funding Commitment Termination Date, proceeds received by Mallard Funding from principal and interest, dividends, or fees on assets must be used to pay fees, expenses and interest on outstanding borrowings, and the excess may be returned to the Fund, subject to certain conditions. Following the Mallard Funding Commitment Termination Date but prior to the Mallard Funding Final Maturity Date, proceeds received by Mallard Funding from principal and interest, dividends, or fees on assets must be used to pay fees, expenses and interest on outstanding borrowings, as well as principal on outstanding borrowings in accordance with the terms of the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement, and the excess may be returned to the Fund, subject to certain conditions. On the Mallard Funding Final Maturity Date, Mallard Funding must pay in full all outstanding fees and expenses and all principal and interest on outstanding borrowings, and the excess may be returned to the Fund.

Under the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement, Mallard Funding is permitted to borrow amounts in U.S. dollars or certain other permitted currencies. Amounts drawn under the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement, will bear interest at Adjusted Term SOFR, the CDOR Rate, Daily Simple SONIA or the EURIBOR Rate (the “Mallard Funding Applicable Reference Rate”), in each case, plus a margin. Advances used to finance the purchase or origination of broadly syndicated loans under the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement bear interest at the Mallard Funding Applicable Reference Rate plus a spread of (x) during the Ramp-Up Period, 1.60%, (y) after the end of the Ramp-Up Period and prior to the Mallard Funding Commitment Termination Date, 2.00% and (z) after the Mallard Funding Commitment Termination Date, 2.25%. Advances used to finance the purchase or origination of middle market loans under the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement initially bear interest at the Mallard Funding Applicable Reference Rate plus a spread of (x) prior to the Mallard Funding Commitment Termination Date, 2.00% and (y) after the Mallard Funding Commitment Termination Date, 2.25%. The Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement contains customary covenants, including certain limitations on the activities of Mallard Funding, including limitations on incurrence of incremental indebtedness, and customary events of default. The Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement is secured by a perfected first priority security interest in the assets of Mallard Funding and on any payments received by Mallard Funding in respect of those assets. Assets pledged to the lenders under the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement will not be available to pay the debts of the Fund.

Borrowings of Mallard Funding are considered our borrowings for purposes of complying with the asset coverage requirements under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).

The description above is only a summary of the material provisions of the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement and the Purchase and Sale Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copies of the Mallard Funding Loan and Servicing Agreement and Purchase and Sale Agreement which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this current report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference thereto.


Cardinal Funding Credit Facility

On January 7, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), Cardinal Funding LLC (“Cardinal Funding”), a Delaware limited liability company and the Fund, entered into a Credit and Security Agreement (the “Secured Credit Facility”), with Cardinal Funding, as borrower, the Fund, in its capacity as collateral manager and in its capacity as equityholder, the lenders from time to time parties thereto, Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent, and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, National Association, as collateral agent, custodian and collateral administrator.

From time to time, the Fund expects to sell and contribute certain investments to Cardinal Funding pursuant to a Sale and Contribution Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date, by and between the Fund and Cardinal Funding. No gain or loss will be recognized as a result of the contribution. Proceeds from the Secured Credit Facility will be used to finance the origination and acquisition of eligible assets by Cardinal Funding, including the purchase of such assets from the Fund. We retain a residual interest in assets contributed to or acquired by Cardinal Funding through our ownership of Cardinal Funding. The maximum principal amount of the Secured Credit Facility as of the Closing Date is $500 million, which can be drawn in multiple currencies subject to certain conditions; the availability of this amount is subject to the borrowing base, which is determined on the basis of the value and types of Cardinal Funding’s assets from time to time, and satisfaction of certain conditions, including certain concentration limits.

The Secured Credit Facility provides for the ability to draw and redraw revolving loans under the Secured Credit Facility for a period of up to three years after the Closing Date unless the commitments are terminated sooner as provided in the Secured Credit Facility (the “Cardinal Funding Commitment Termination Date”). Unless otherwise terminated, the Secured Credit Facility will mature on the date which is two years after the Commitment Termination Date (the “Cardinal Funding Final Maturity Date”). Prior to the Cardinal Funding Commitment Termination Date, proceeds received by Cardinal Funding from principal and interest, dividends, or fees on assets must be used to pay fees, expenses and interest on outstanding borrowings, and the excess may be returned to the Fund, subject to certain conditions. Following the Cardinal Funding Commitment Termination Date but prior to the Cardinal Funding Final Maturity Date, proceeds received by Cardinal Funding from principal and interest, dividends, or fees on assets must be used to pay fees, expenses and interest on outstanding borrowings, as well as principal on outstanding borrowings in accordance with the terms of the Secured Credit Facility, and the excess may be returned to the Fund, subject to certain conditions. On the Cardinal Funding Final Maturity Date, Cardinal Funding must pay in full all outstanding fees and expenses and all principal and interest on outstanding borrowings, and the excess may be returned to the Fund.

Under the Secured Credit Facility, Cardinal Funding is permitted to borrow amounts in U.S. dollars or certain other permitted currencies.
