Partners that have strategic relationships with Apollo or are affiliates or employees of the General Partner or the Investment Manager, members of the immediate families of such persons and trusts or other entities organized primarily for their benefit or for charitable purposes, and including, in particular, during any wind down of the Fund’s business.
Organizational Expenses
The Partnership will pay all of its own, the Investment Manager’s, the General Partner’s, and certain other Fund entities’ fees, costs, and expenses and other liabilities incurred in connection with the offering and sale of Interests to prospective Limited Partners, including all out-of-pocket legal, accounting, filing, capital raising, printing, electronic database and other similar fees, costs and expenses, including travel, accommodation, meal and related expenses and other similar fees, costs and expenses (collectively, “Organizational Expenses”) that are attributable to the Partnership and all of its pro rata share of any Organizational Expenses that are not attributable to any specific series (each, a “Series”) of any limited partnership that comprise the Fund (each, a “Limited Partnership”). Service providers are compensated for their services pursuant to the terms of their relevant engagements.
For accounting purposes, certain of the Organizational Expenses relating to offering costs will be amortized over a 60-month period from the commencement of operations. If a Limited Partner withdraws all or a portion of its Capital Account prior to the end of the 60-month period during which the Fund is amortizing expenses, the General Partner may, but is not required to, accelerate a proportionate share of the unamortized expenses based upon the amount being withdrawn and reduce withdrawal proceeds by the amount of such accelerated expenses.
Placement Fees
The Fund may specially allocate any placement fees and expenses incurred in connection with the offering of Interests to the Capital Accounts or capital subaccounts of the Limited Partners on any basis that it considers equitable; provided, however, that any placement fees paid by the Fund will offset the Management Fees otherwise payable to the Investment Manager on a dollar-for-dollar basis; and provided, further, that, amounts paid to locally licensed intermediaries, distributors or similar service providers that the General Partner determines are necessary for compliance with laws and regulations governing the offer and sale of Fund interests in any jurisdiction. For the avoidance of doubt, if any Limited Partner is required to bear a separate fee by any placement agent, such separate fee will not reduce the Management Fee.
Other Fees
Except as provided below, the General Partner and the Investment Manager will pay or otherwise bear all of their own operating, overhead and administrative expenses, including all costs and expenses on account of compensation and benefits due to their employees and rent (collectively, the “Overhead”), without reimbursement by the Fund.
To the extent practicable, Operating Expenses attributable solely to one Limited Partnership or Series, as applicable, will be borne by the Partners in such Limited Partnership or Series, and may vary among Limited Partnerships and Series, and will be subject to the caps as described in the table above. On an ongoing basis, except for Overhead and Organizational Expenses, each Limited Partnership or Series, as applicable, (and not the General Partner, the Investment Manager or any of their respective affiliates) will pay or otherwise bear its share (as equitably allocated by the General Partner in its sole discretion) of all fees, costs, expenses and other liabilities or obligations resulting from, related to, associated with, arising from or incurred in connection with such Series and any Parallel Fund’s (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) operations (the “Operating Expenses”).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the partnership agreement, or equivalent agreement, entered into by the applicable Limited Partnership, the General Partner, the Investment Manager and their respective affiliates will be entitled to reimbursement from the Fund for any Operating Expenses or Organizational Expenses paid and/or incurred by them on behalf of the Fund, including fees, costs and expenses and allocated portions of the General Partner’s, the Investment Manager’s or any of their respective affiliates’ Overhead incurred in connection with services performed by personnel or employees of the General Partner, the Investment Manager and/or their respective affiliates that are services the fees, costs and expenses that constitute Operating Expenses or Organizational Expenses. In addition, the categories of fees, costs, expenses and other liabilities identified above will be Operating Expenses and Organizational Expenses, respectively, regardless of whether the person providing or performing the service or output giving rise to such fees, costs, expenses or other liabilities is the General Partner, the Investment Manager or any of their respective affiliates or a third party.
