1. | DESCRIPTION OF PLAN | |
The following description of the Ameritrade Holding Corporation Associates 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan Document for a more complete description of the Plans provisions. | ||
General The Plan is a defined contribution profit sharing and 401(k) plan covering employees of TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation and its participating affiliated companies (collectively, the Company) who meet eligibility requirements. The Plan covers employees who are 21 years old or older. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), as amended. | ||
Contributions Participants may contribute up to 75% of their compensation on a salary deferral basis, subject to limitations specified in the Internal Revenue Code. Effective January 1, 2006, employees of the Company who have not executed a written salary reduction agreement are subject to a default election in an amount equal to three percent of such employees compensation. Participants direct the investment of all contributions into various options offered by the Plan. In addition, participants may transfer fund balances between the various fund options, including Company common stock and self-directed brokerage accounts. Effective September 1, 2005, in the event participants do not direct the investment of their accounts, the Trustee, subject to guidelines it establishes and applies in a uniform nondiscriminatory manner, shall invest such accounts on behalf of the participants. Effective April 1, 2006, the Company contributes to the Plan as a matching contribution 50% (65% for the period April 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006) of the participants contributions to the Plan that do not exceed 6% of the participants compensation. The Company also makes discretionary contributions to the Plan. Effective January 1, 2006, highly compensated employees who are participants in the Ameritrade Holding Corporation 2002 Management Incentive Plan, or its successor plan or plans, shall not be eligible to receive Company matching or discretionary contributions. | ||
Participant Accounts Individual accounts are maintained for each participant. Each participant account is credited with the participant contributions, the Company matching contribution, the Company discretionary contribution (if any), an allocation of forfeitures (if applicable) and an allocation of the Plans earnings or losses, and charged with an allocation of administrative fees, provided however, that forfeitures are first used to pay administrative fees and any excess fees are then charged to participant accounts. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participants vested account. | ||
Vesting Company contributions and earnings or losses thereon vest 20% after the first year of continuous service and vest an additional 20% each year, with 100% vesting occurring for all participants after five years of service. Participants immediately vest in their contributions plus actual earnings or losses thereon. | ||
Participant Loans Participants may borrow from their Plan accounts the lesser of 50% of their vested account balance or $50,000. The loans are secured by the balance in the participants account and bear interest at the prime rate plus one percent, determined as of the date of the loan. Principal and interest is |
4
paid ratably through payroll deductions over a period not to exceed five years except for loans used to acquire a principal residence, for which the repayment period may exceed five years. | ||
Payment of Benefits On termination of service, a participant may elect to receive either a lump-sum payment or installment payments. | ||
Forfeited Accounts Forfeitures are first used to reinstate prior forfeitures for former employees who return to employment with the Company, then to pay the Plans administrative expenses and lastly to supplement the Companys contributions. In addition to the Company contributions, forfeitures of $2,830,820 and $1,621,343 were allocated to participant accounts for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, unallocated forfeitures of $2,815,614 and $1,631,921, respectively, were included in investments and were available to pay Plan administrative expenses and supplement Company contributions in the subsequent year. In addition, as of December 31, 2006, unallocated forfeitures of $3,623,211 were included in investments and may be available to pay Plan administrative expenses and supplement Company contributions for years 2007 through 2011, if not previously used to reinstate prior forfeitures for former employees who have returned to employment with the Company. | ||
Plan Termination Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts. | ||
2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
Basis of Accounting The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. | ||
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for benefits and changes therein. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | ||
Risks and Uncertainties The Plan utilizes various investment instruments. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and market risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participant account balances and the amounts reported in the financial statements. | ||

| TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation Common Stock The common stock is stated at fair value as determined by quoted market prices. | ||
| Mutual Funds Mutual funds are stated at fair value as determined by quoted net asset value. | ||
| Self-directed Accounts Investments in self-directed accounts are stated at fair value as determined by quoted market prices and quoted net asset values of the investments held therein. | ||
| Participant Loans Loans to participants are carried at the principal amount outstanding, which approximates fair value. |

4. | PARTIES-IN-INTEREST | |
The Plan holds shares of TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation common stock. TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation is the parent of TD AMERITRADE Online Holdings Corp. (TDAOH), the Plan sponsor. Prior to April 2006, Ameritrade, Inc. (presently known as TD AMERITRADE Clearing, Inc.), a wholly owned subsidiary of TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation, acted as the broker for the Plans self-directed brokerage accounts. In April 2006, Ameritrade, Inc. transferred its introducing broker/dealer business to TD AMERITRADE, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation. TD AMERITRADE, Inc. became the introducing broker for the Plans self-directed brokerage accounts. Administrative and recordkeeping fees of $371,448 and $306,092 were paid to Intrust Bank, N.A. in 2006 and 2005, respectively. Intrust Bank, N.A. is the discretionary trustee as defined by the Plan. These transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. | ||
At December 31, 2006, the Plan held 4,605,444 shares of common stock of TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation with a cost basis of $46,043,892. | ||
5. | TAX STATUS | |
The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service, dated April 3, 2003, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and, therefore the related trust is exempt from taxation. Subsequent to this determination by the Internal Revenue Service, the Plan was amended. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity |
6
with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan administrator believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan, as amended, is qualified and the related trust is tax exempt. | ||
6. | SUBSEQUENT EVENT | |
On June 26, 2007, the TDAOH Board of Directors approved the merger of the TD Waterhouse Group, Inc. 401(k) and Profit Sharing Plan into the Plan. The merger will become effective on or about July 17, 2007. |
