Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On November 5, 2009, TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation (“TD AMERITRADE”) entered into an amendment no. 4 and assumption agreement (“Amendment No. 4”) with respect to its senior secured credit facility with a syndicate of lenders including The Bank of New York Mellon, as Administrative Agent (the “Credit Facility”). Amendment No. 4 reduces the existing commitments under TD AMERITRADE’s revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) to zero and replaces such commitments by adding new incremental commitments under the Revolving Facility from a syndicate of lenders in an aggregate amount of $300 million.
Amendment No. 4 extends the maturity date of the Revolving Facility to December 31, 2012. Depending on the type of borrowing by TD AMERITRADE, the applicable interest rate under the Revolving Facility, after giving effect to Amendment No. 4, is calculated as a per annum rate equal to (a) LIBOR plus an applicable margin, which is currently 2.50% for LIBOR loans, or (b) (i) the greater of (x) the prime rate, (y) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5% or (z) one-month LIBOR plus 1.0% plus (ii) an applicable margin, which is currently 1.50% for base rate loans. The applicable margins for both LIBOR loans and base rate loans under the Revolving Facility will be reduced in the event of certain improvements in TD AMERITRADE’s senior unsecured long-term debt rating (subject to a minimum of 2.00% for LIBOR loans and 1.00% for base rate loans) and will be increased in the event of certain reductions in TD AMERITRADE’s senior unsecured long-term debt rating (subject to a maximum of 4.00% for LIBOR loans and 3.00% for base rate loans). As of November 5, 2009, there were no revolving loans outstanding under the Revolving Facility.
