Amazon does not like Exit Nodes running in EC2.  I'm not sure if there
was a specific reason bridge vs relay was chosen, but I do know that
exit nodes weren't an option.

You can fight them on it, but you'll probably lose. Or you can switch
them back to bridges or to relays, and tell them you've removed the
exit node.
