After July 2, 2007, the Principals and Holdings shall not indirectly participate in any management fee waiver program in effect from time to time unless the Executive Committee determines otherwise (it being understood that so long as participation by the Principals does not have an adverse impact on the financial results of Apollo and its Subsidiaries, the Executive Committee shall work diligently toward developing a plan that would allow such participation in compliance with clauses (i) through (iii) below); provided, that (i) to the extent that the Principals or Holdings participate in any such management fee waiver program, the Principals shall be entitled to indirectly participate in accordance with their respective Sharing Percentages, (ii) if there is any limitation on the amount of investment pursuant to any such management fee waiver program, the amount available to the Principals shall be allocated among the Principals in accordance with their respective Sharing Percentages, and (iii) to the extent that participation by the Principals or Holdings in any such management fee waiver program has an adverse economic impact on any non- participating Principal or the unitholders of Apollo generally, the Executive Committee must approve such participation by unanimous consent.

(e) The Executive Committee will determine whether and to what extent any entity or investment professional (including the Principals) may invest in the Funds on terms more favorable than those offered to third party investors. If the Executive Committee permits any Principal to invest on terms more favorable than those 13 Does: USI: I0770389vIS EFTA00583347 offered to third party investors, it will permit all Continuing Principals and Principal Groups to do so, and if any limit is imposed upon the amounts that may be invested on more favorable terms then such amount shall be allocated among the Continuing Principals and Principal Groups in accordance with their respective Sharing Percentages.
