Explanation of Responses:
1. This amendment to Form 4 is being filed to report a restricted share award of 13,971 Class A common shares which vest ratably on the first and second anniversaries of the vesting start date provided, however, in the event of death or disability, the award shall become immediately and fully vested; and provided, further, that in the event of a termination of relationship due to (i) an involuntary termination by the Issuer without cause or (ii) resignation by the reporting person for good reason and, in each case, such termination of relationship occurs within eighteen (18) months following a change in control, the award shall become immediately and fully vested as of the effective date of such termination of relationship. This award was inadvertently omitted from the reporting person's Form 4 filed March 23, 2017.
Remarks:
Mr. Belardi also serves as Chief Executive Officer of Athene Asset Management, L.P. ("AAM"), a subsidiary of Apollo Global Management, LLC ("Apollo"). Certain of Apollo's affiliates manage investment funds (the "Apollo Funds") that hold Class B common shares of the Issuer and may be deemed to beneficially own the common shares of the Issuer held by the Apollo Funds. This report does not include any securities of the Issuer held by AAM or any of the Apollo Funds or that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by AAM or any Apollo investment managers or investment advisors affiliated with the Apollo Funds, and Mr. Belardi disclaims beneficial ownership of all such securities. This report shall not be deemed an admission that Mr. Belardi is the beneficial owner of, or has any pecuniary interest in, such securities for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purpose. Exhibit 24.1 - Power of Attorney (incorporated by reference to the Power of Attorney filed as Exhibit 24.1 to the Form 3 filed by the Reporting Person on December 9, 2016)
