THE TORONTO-DOMINION BANK

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN

1,200,000 COMMON SHARES

This is prospectus supplement no. 6 to the prospectus of The Toronto-Dominion Bank (the “Bank”) dated February 21, 2002 relating to the common shares of the Bank to be purchased under the Bank’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of U.S. resident holders and other “U.S. Persons” (as defined in the SEC’s Regulation S).

On February 28, 2013, the Bank announced that there will no longer be a discount from the Average Market Price applied to purchases of common shares from the Bank’s treasury. Most recently, the common shares have been purchased from the Bank’s treasury at a discount of 1% from the Average Market Price. The first dividend for which this latest change will be effective is the dividend declared by the Board of Directors of the Bank on February 28, 2013 for the quarter ending April 30, 2013. This dividend is payable on and after April 30, 2013.

Registered Participants who wish to terminate participation in the Plan must give written notice to the Plan Agent addressed as follows.

A Registered Participant’s written notice must be received by the Plan Agent by no later than April 1, 2013 in order for the Registered Participant to ensure that any cash dividends they are entitled to be paid on and after April 30, 2013 are not reinvested in common shares under the Plan. In the event that a Registered Participant’s notice requesting termination of participation in the Plan is received between April 2, 2013 and April 30, 2013, termination will not be effective until the next Investment Date.

Non-Registered Participants in the Plan should contact their respective Intermediaries for instructions on the procedures to be followed to terminate participation in the Plan. Intermediaries may require their clients to provide them with notice by a different, and possibly earlier, date than April 1, 2013 in order to ensure that any cash dividends the Non-Registered Participants are entitled to be paid on and after April 30, 2013 are not reinvested in common shares.
