Disclaimers, Definitions, and Important Notes Forward-Looking Statements

We make forward-looking statements in this presentation and other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond our control. These forward-looking statements include information about possible or assumed future results of our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, plans and objectives, including information about our ability to generate attractive returns while attempting to mitigate risk. When used in this release, the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “continue,” “intend,” “should,” “may” or similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Statements regarding the following subjects, among others, may be forward-looking: the return on equity; the yield on investments; the ability to borrow to finance assets; and other risks associated with changes in business conditions and the general economy.

The forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of our future performance, taking into account all information currently available to us. Forward-looking statements are not predictions of future events. These beliefs, assumptions and expectations can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to us. Some of these factors are described in the company's filings with the SEC. If a change occurs, our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations may vary materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. New risks and uncertainties arise over time, and it is not possible for us to predict those events or how they may affect us. Except as required by law, we are not obligated to, and do not intend to, update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. This presentation may contain statistics and other data that in some cases has been obtained from or compiled from information made available by third-party service providers.

Past Performance

Past performance is not indicative nor a guarantee of future returns, the realization of which is dependent on many factors, many of which are beyond the control of Apollo Global Management, LLC (“AGM”); Apollo Investment Management, L.P.; and Apollo Investment Corporation (collectively “Apollo”). There can be no assurances that future dividends will match or exceed historic ones, or that they will be made at all. Net returns give effect to all fees and expenses. Unless otherwise noted, information included herein is presented as of the date indicated on the cover page and may change at any time without notice. Apollo Investment Corporation (the “Corporation” or “AINV” or the “Fund”) is subject to certain significant risks relating to our business and investment objective. For more detailed information on risks relating to the Corporation, see the latest Form 10-K and subsequent quarterly reports filed on Form 10-Q.

Financial Data

Financial data used in this presentation for the periods shown is from the Corporation’s Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filings with the SEC during such periods. Unless otherwise indicated, the numbers shown herein are rounded and unaudited. Quarterly financial information about the Company refers to fiscal quarters.

AUM Definition

Assets Under Management (“AUM”) refers to the investments AGM manages or with respect to which it has control, including capital it has the right to call from its investors pursuant to their capital commitments to various funds. AGM’s AUM equals the sum of: (i) the fair value of its private equity investments plus the capital that it is entitled to call from its investors pursuant to the terms of their capital commitments plus non-recallable capital to the extent a fund is within the commitment period in which management fees are calculated based on total commitments to the fund; (ii) the net asset value of AGM’s capital markets funds, other than certain senior credit funds, which are structured as collateralized loan obligations or certain collateralized loan obligation and collateralized debt obligation credit funds that have a fee generating basis other than mark-to-market asset values, plus used or available leverage and/or capital commitments; (iii) the gross asset values or net asset values of AGM’s real estate entities and the structured portfolio vehicle investments included within the funds AGM manages, which includes the leverage used by such structured portfolio vehicles; (iv) the incremental value associated with the reinsurance investments of the portfolio company assets that AGM manages; and (v) the fair value of any other investments that AGM manages plus unused credit facilities, including capital commitments for investments that may require pre-qualification before investment plus any other capital commitments available for investment that are not otherwise included in the clauses above. AGM’s AUM measure includes AUM for which it charges either no or nominal fees. AGM’s definition of AUM is not based on any definition of AUM contained in its operating agreement or in any of its Apollo fund management agreements. AGM considers multiple factors for determining what should be included in its definition of AUM. Such factors include but are not limited to (1) its ability to influence the investment decisions for existing and available assets; (2) its ability to generate income from the underlying assets in its funds; and (3) the AUM measures that it uses internally or believes are used by other investment managers. Given the differences in the investment strategies and structures among other alternative investment managers, AGM’s calculation of AUM may differ from the calculations employed by other investment managers and, as a result, this measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures presented by other investment managers.

Bank Regulation and Related Impact

Total Number of U.S. Banks Continues to Decline (1)

Leveraged Lending Guidance Banks’ Reduced Participation in Loan Market (2)

9

Post the Global Financial Crisis, there has been a significant impact on traditional financing sources and the global capital markets

– Banks have markedly decreased their underwriting exposure

Regulatory scrutiny has continued to intensify and is particularly noticeable with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) leveraged lending guidance. Originally introduced in 2013, but has recently been more broadly enforced to reduce banks’ exposure to certain types of loans.

– Impacting significant portion of high yield and loan markets

Banks’ Cautious Approach

Banks are participating in fewer junior capital transactions or syndicating increasing portions of their exposure

Main requirements for financial institutions underwriting leveraged transactions include: – Leverage: cannot exceed 4x EBITDA for senior debt or 6x for total

debt (including all committed capital and assuming revolvers are drawn)

– Repayment: senior debt must fully amortize or total debt must be reduced by half using free cash flow within 5-7 years

– Covenants: adequate covenant protections, including financial maintenance covenants

– Collateral: protection against dilution, sale or exchange of collateral or cash flow producing assets

Comprehensive Approach to Originations

AINV Investment Strategy

Increase exposure to senior secured loans sourced by Apollo’s direct origination platform

Focus on floating rate loans

Transition away from certain existing specialty verticals

Add exposure in first lien loans in life sciences, asset-based lending, and lender finance

Improve credit quality of portfolio

Emphasize portfolio diversification and avoid outsized single name or industry concentrations

We are in the process of repositioning our investment portfolio in such a way that we believe will have a lower risk profile and less volatility

Specifically, we seek to:

With the successful execution of this repositioning plan, we believe that AINV should generate consistent and sustainable ROEs

(5) The Company has modified the reporting of its interest rate type information to be based on its corporate debt portfolio, exclusive of investments on non-accrual status..

Non-core (1) assets currently account for $535 million or approximately 23% (2) (3) of the investment portfolio Reduced exposure to non-core assets(1) by $372 million(2)(3) since June 30, 2016

• Oil & gas exposure has declined to 6.6% of the portfolio(2) down from 11.6% as of June 30, 2016, measured at fair value

Co-Investment Opportunities

18 (1) On March 29, 2016, the Company received an exemptive order from the SEC permitting greater flexibility to participate in co-investment transactions with certain of its affiliates where terms other than price and quantity are negotiated, subject to the conditions included therein. (2) Through March 31, 2017.

AINV received exemptive relief from the SEC permitting it to enter into previously prohibited negotiated joint transactions with other funds / entities

managed by AGM, including MidCap, (1)

We believe that the scale of AINV, MidCap and other Apollo managed capital, on a combined basis, makes us one of the largest market participants uniquely

positioned to make large commitments

We believe exemptive relief to co-invest should improve AINV’s competitive positioning

– Allows AINV to compete more on the basis of size / scale and certainty of execution, rather than simply on price

– Enhances ability to originate larger transactions with the ability to hold and / or syndicate loans

– Expected to increase deal flow ─ number and variety of deals

– Ability to partner with MidCap which provides AINV with access to MidCap’s expertise in niche markets with high barriers to entry

– Already seeing a strong pipeline of co-investment opportunities with MidCap

AINV does not lend to portfolio companies owned by AGM’s private equity funds

Since receiving the order, AINV has invested $150 million across 10 companies, pursuant to the co-investment exemptive order (2)

Co-Investment Example: Westinghouse Electric

Westinghouse Electric (“Westinghouse” or the “Company”) builds, maintains and services nuclear power plants globally

Westinghouse operates in several segments comprised of:

– “ConstructCo”: which have created a free cash flow drain as well as significant operating liabilities from cost overruns

– “ServiceCo”: three segments that provide ongoing maintenance, fuel, repair and decommissioning for plants

The public Japanese conglomerate Toshiba (the “Parent”)

acquired 75%+ of the Company in 2006 for $5 billion+ The Parent wanted the Company to file for bankruptcy before

March 31, 2017 As a result, the Company faced a tight timeline for securing DIP

financing, and approached Apollo given the size of our platform and ability to act quickly to provide a creative capital solution

Apollo ultimately filled the Company’s entire funding need via an $800 million DIP financing at L+625 and a 2.5% OID maturing in 24 months, with a 3% extension fee, implying a YTM of 10-15%+

We believe ServiceCo businesses are fundamentally robust:

The DIP is ~1.7x levered post-overhead, and ~3x+ covered by the enterprise value of ServiceCo which generates robust free cash flow

Ability for Apollo to secure liens on core collateral: The DIP is

highly structured, with tight covenants Stable industry outlook in the short to medium term Downside protection from liquidation value: $750 million to $1

billion of value based on A/R, inventory and U.S. equipment alone

Co Investment Example: Oxford Immunotec

20

Company Overview Oxford Immunotec (or the “Company”) is a commercial-stage diagnostics

company offering innovative tests based on its proprietary T-SPOT platform. T-SPOT measures the activity of T cells, which are an important part of the human body’s immune system, to aid in the diagnosis, prognosis, and monitoring of disease

The T-SPOT platform has potential applications in various infectious diseases, cancers and autoimmune diseases. Oxford Immunotec has initially focused on commercializing T-SPOT.TB, its test for latent Tuberculosis (~$86mm of revenue in 2016; ~40% YOY growth)

The Company is expanding its commercial product offering by developing several additional tests that address medical unmet needs.

Investment Background & Thesis In October 2016, Apollo funded $9.75 million of First Lien TL with an

additional $3.25 million committed through a second tranche

This investment is the fourth as part of AINV’s expansion into the Life Sciences vertical and Apollo believes it represents an attractive risk/return profile

Apollo believes this co-investment transaction is consistent with the proposed broader portfolio repositioning (i.e., 1st lien, well-structured with attractive risk-reward)

The First Lien TL is governed by a minimum net revenue covenant tested quarterly on a TTM basis

Investment thesis:

– The Company’s commercial products have generated revenue growth at a rate of 40% YoY. Assuming a conservative multiple of 1.5x – 2.0x on 2016E sales, this business alone could be valued at $123mm - $162mm

Capital Structure Additional Information Oxford Immunotec is traded on the NASDAQ exchange (OXFD) and has a

current market capitalization of approximately $341mm (as of June 20, 2017). The stock price has ranged from $7.90 - $15.71 over the past 12 months

The Company completed its IPO in late 2013 (net proceeds of $64mm), a follow on offering in early 2015 (net proceeds of $54mm).

The Company recently acquired the assets of Imugen, Inc., a diagnostic lab specializing in tick-borne diseases, for ~$22mm (2x 2015 revenue of $11mm). This business line was profitable on a stand-alone basis, and the Company can leverage its commercial resources as there is a high degree of call point overlap with T-SPOT.TB.

AINV / MidCap Product Overlap

Asset Based

Secured loans to manufacturing, distribution, retail and services companies

Core product consists of revolvers advancing against accounts receivable and inventory; will selectively include term loans against fixed assets or as supported by cash flow

High-touch asset class requiring liquidity for daily revolver fundings, collateral evaluation and diligence expertise, borrowing base monitoring capabilities and complex cash dominion structures

Leverages MidCap’s in-place portfolio and collateral monitoring infrastructure

Life Sciences

Low loan-to-value loans, covered by material asset values and cash on hand, made to borrowers in product development (e.g., biotech companies) or early commercialization

Enterprise value loans

Niche market with what we believe to be disproportionate risk reward – almost no historical losses across market

Typically have multiple sources of exit including strong equity support, well funded balance sheets, and liquidation value

No underwriting of science – only of cash support and development timeline

Lender Finance

Senior secured facilities made to lenders in various industries (consumer and commercial) secured by their underlying collateral

Typically benefit from multiple levels of credit support and protection in addition to support of underlying borrowers

Defined eligibility criteria or loan-by-loan approval, borrowing base structure with ability to remove specific assets, and corporate and/or personal recourse with various restrictive covenants

Highly structured transactions skewing towards larger commitments ($25+ million) to provide diversification of underlying collateral

Significant opportunities exist to fill the capital void left by large banks exiting and descaling in this asset class

Aircraft Leasing

36 (1) Source: Airbus. (2) Source: IATA

Favorable Industry Fundamentals

AINV established a wholly owned portfolio company Merx Aviation Finance, LLC (“Merx”) to participate in aircraft leasing

Healthy global passenger traffic expected to continue

– Since the 1970’s, air traffic has roughly doubled every 15 years (1)

– During the past 20 years global passenger traffic has expanded at an average annual growth rate of 5.1%, while global GDP grew by an average annual rate of 3.7% over the same period. (2)

Global fleet growth

Strong demand for leased aircraft driven by movement of aircraft off of airlines’ balance sheets to lessor balance sheets

Rational OEM supply

Long technology cycles

Airlines prospering

Traditional capital providers to the space (other than new deliveries) have been pulling back

Lack of central clearinghouse for aircraft trading causes market to be inefficient

High barriers to entry

Investment Thesis / Strategy Focus on the most liquid and in-demand aircraft

– Generally targeting used current generation Boeing and Airbus commercial aircraft

Older aircraft transactions expected to be protected by the underlying “metal” value of the aircraft

Deploying an opportunistic, transaction driven strategy while leveraging strong relationships and specialized knowledge creates attractive investment opportunities

Continually optimize portfolio through aircraft acquisitions and dispositions

Maintain a highly diversified portfolio in terms of aircraft type, lessee, geography
