Part I — FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 1. –Financial Statements

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors
TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation (the Company) as of December 31, 2009, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation as of September 30, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein) and in our report dated November 13, 2009, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2009, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

These financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which are all of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:

ASC 805 — On October 1, 2009, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. ASC 805 generally requires an acquirer to recognize the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, contingent purchase consideration and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at fair value on the date of acquisition. It also requires an acquirer to recognize as expense most transaction and restructuring costs as incurred, rather than include such items in the cost of the acquired entity. For the Company, ASC 805 applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after October 1, 2009. The adoption of ASC 805 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

ASC 820-10 — On October 1, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The adoption of ASC 820-10 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

2. GOODWILL AND ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company has recorded goodwill for purchase business combinations to the extent the purchase price of each completed acquisition exceeded the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets of each acquired company.

Senior Notes — On November 25, 2009 the Company sold, through a public offering, $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes, consisting of $250 million aggregate principal amount of 2.950% Senior Notes due December 1, 2012 (the “2012 Notes”), $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.150% Senior Notes due December 1, 2014 (the “2014 Notes”) and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 5.600% Senior Notes due December 1, 2019 (the “2019 Notes” and, collectively with the 2012 Notes and the 2014 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes were issued at an aggregate discount of $1.4 million, which is being amortized to interest expense over the terms of the respective Senior Notes. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year.

The Company used the net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes, together with approximately $158 million of cash on hand, to repay in full the outstanding principal under the Company’s January 23, 2006 credit agreement, effective as of November 25, 2009. Upon repayment, the January 23, 2006 credit agreement (including the Term A Facility, the Term B Facility and the Revolving Facility as amended on November 5, 2009), was automatically amended and restated in its entirety pursuant to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Restated Credit Agreement”), dated as of November 25, 2009, as described below.

The Senior Notes are jointly and severally and fully and unconditionally guaranteed by each of the Company’s current and future subsidiaries that is or becomes a borrower or a guarantor under the Restated Credit Agreement. Currently, the only subsidiary guarantor of the obligations under the Senior Notes is TD AMERITRADE Online Holdings Corp. (“TDAOH”). The Senior Notes and the guarantee by the subsidiary guarantor are the general senior unsecured obligations of the Company and the subsidiary guarantor.

The Company may redeem each series of the Senior Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed, and (b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the notes being redeemed, discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis at the comparable U.S. treasury rate, plus 25 basis points in the case of the 2012 Notes, plus 30 basis points in the case of the 2014 Notes and plus 35 basis points in the case of the 2019 Notes, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption.

Interest Rate Swaps — The Company is exposed to changes in the fair value of its fixed-rate Senior Notes resulting from interest rate fluctuations. To hedge this exposure, on December 30, 2009, the Company entered into fixed-for-variable interest rate swaps on the 2012 Notes and 2014 Notes for notional amounts of $250 million and $500 million, respectively, with

maturity dates matching the respective maturity dates of the 2012 Notes and 2014 Notes. The interest rate swaps effectively change the fixed-rate interest on the 2012 Notes and 2014 Notes to variable-rate interest. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, the Company receives semi-annual fixed-rate interest payments based on the same rates applicable to the 2012 Notes and 2014 Notes, and makes quarterly variable-rate interest payments based on three-month LIBOR plus (a) 0.9693% for the swap on the 2012 Notes and (b) 1.245% for the swap on the 2014 Notes.

The interest rate swaps are accounted for as fair value hedges and qualify for the shortcut method of accounting. Changes in the payment of interest resulting from the interest rate swaps are recorded as an offset to interest on borrowings on the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements. Changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps are completely offset by changes in fair value of the related notes, resulting in no effect on net income. The fair value of the interest rate swaps was not material as of December 31, 2009.

The interest rate swaps are subject to counterparty credit risk. Credit risk is managed by limiting activity to approved counterparties that meet a minimum credit rating threshold and by entering into credit support agreements. The bilateral credit support agreement related to the interest rate swaps requires daily collateral coverage, in the form of cash or U.S. Treasury securities, for the aggregate fair value of the interest rate swaps.

Restated Revolving Facility — The Restated Credit Agreement consists of a senior unsecured revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $300 million (the “Restated Revolving Facility”). The maturity date of the Restated Revolving Facility is December 31, 2012. The applicable interest rate under the Restated Revolving Facility is calculated as a per annum rate equal to, at the option of the Company, (a) LIBOR plus an interest rate margin (“LIBOR loans”) or (b) (i) the highest of (x) the prime rate, (y) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% or (z) one-month LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus (ii) an interest rate margin (“Base Rate loans”). The interest rate margin ranges from 2.00% to 4.00% for LIBOR loans and from 1.00% to 3.00% for Base Rate loans, determined by reference to the Company’s public debt ratings. The Company is obligated to pay a commitment fee ranging from 0.225% to 0.750% on any unused amount of the Restated Revolving Facility, determined by reference to the Company’s public debt ratings. As of December 31, 2009, the interest rate margin would be 2.50% for LIBOR loans and 1.50% for Base Rate loans, and the commitment fee is 0.375% per annum, each determined by reference to the Company’s current Standard & Poor’s public debt rating of BBB+. There were no borrowings outstanding under the Restated Revolving Facility as of December 31, 2009.

The obligations under the Restated Credit Agreement are guaranteed by each “significant subsidiary” (as defined in SEC Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X) of the Company, other than broker-dealer subsidiaries, futures commission merchant subsidiaries and controlled foreign corporations. Currently, the only subsidiary guarantor of the obligations under the Restated Credit Agreement is TDAOH.

The Restated Credit Agreement contains negative covenants that limit or restrict the incurrence of liens, indebtedness of subsidiaries, mergers, consolidations, transactions with affiliates, change in nature of business and the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions. The Company is also required to maintain compliance with a maximum consolidated leverage ratio covenant and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio covenant, and the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiaries are required to maintain compliance with a minimum regulatory net capital covenant. The Company is restricted under the Restated Credit Agreement from incurring additional indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $100 million that includes any covenants that are more restrictive (taken as a whole) as to the Company than those contained in the Restated Credit Agreement, unless the Restated Credit Agreement is amended to include such more restrictive covenants prior to the incurrence of such additional indebtedness. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Restated Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2009.

Broker-dealer Credit Facilities — The Company, through its wholly-owned broker-dealer subsidiaries, had access to secured uncommitted credit facilities with financial institutions of up to $630 million as of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009. The broker-dealer subsidiaries also had access to unsecured uncommitted credit facilities of up to $150 million as of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009. The financial institutions may make loans under line of credit arrangements or, in some cases, issue letters of credit under these facilities. The secured credit facilities require the Company to pledge qualified client securities to secure outstanding obligations under these facilities. Borrowings under the secured and unsecured credit facilities bear interest at a variable rate based on the federal funds rate. There were no borrowings outstanding or letters of credit issued under the secured or unsecured credit facilities as of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009. As of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009, approximately $780 million was available to the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiaries pursuant to uncommitted credit facilities for either loans or, in some cases, letters of credit.

5. CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The Company’s broker-dealer subsidiaries are subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)), which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital, as defined. Net capital is calculated for each broker-dealer subsidiary individually. Excess net capital of one broker-dealer subsidiary may not be used to offset a net capital deficiency of another broker-dealer subsidiary. Net capital and the related net capital requirement may fluctuate on a daily basis.

Net capital and net capital requirements for the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiaries are summarized in the following table (dollars in thousands):

		December 31, 2009												September 30, 2009
						Minimum												Minimum
						Net Capital				Excess								Net Capital				Excess
		Net Capital				Required				Net Capital				Net Capital				Required				Net Capital
TD AMERITRADE Clearing, Inc.		$	853,107			$	139,474			$	713,633			$	855,630			$	137,943			$	717,687

TD AMERITRADE Clearing, Inc. (“TDA Clearing”) is a clearing broker-dealer and TD AMERITRADE, Inc. (“TDA Inc.”) and thinkorswim, Inc. are introducing broker-dealers.

The Company’s non-depository trust company subsidiary, TD AMERITRADE Trust Company (“TDATC”), is subject to capital requirements established by the State of Maine, which requires TDATC to maintain minimum Tier 1 capital, as defined. TDATC’s Tier 1 capital was $14.0 million and $14.7 million as of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009, respectively, which exceeded the required Tier 1 capital by $4.0 million and $4.7 million, respectively.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Spam Litigation — A purported class action, captioned Elvey v. TD Ameritrade, Inc., was filed on May 31, 2007 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The complaint alleges that there was a breach in TDA Inc.’s systems, which allowed access to e-mail addresses and other personal information of account holders, and that as a result account holders received unsolicited e-mail from spammers promoting certain stocks and have been subjected to an increased risk of identity theft. The complaint requests unspecified damages and injunctive and other equitable relief. A second lawsuit, captioned Zigler v. TD Ameritrade, Inc., was filed on September 26, 2007, in the same jurisdiction on behalf of a purported nationwide class of account holders. The factual allegations of the complaint and the relief sought are substantially the same as those in the first lawsuit. The cases were consolidated under the caption In re TD Ameritrade Accountholders Litigation. The Company hired an independent consultant to investigate whether identity theft occurred as a result of the breach. The consultant conducted four investigations from August 2007 to June 2008 and reported that it found no evidence of identity theft. The parties entered into an agreement to settle the lawsuits on a class basis subject to court approval. On May 1, 2009, the Court granted preliminary approval of the proposed settlement, which had been revised. Some class members filed objections and opt-outs. The court denied final approval of the proposed settlement on October 23, 2009. The court ruled that the asserted benefits of the settlement to the class were not sufficient to warrant approval and that the proposed settlement was not fair, reasonable and adequate. A case conference has been scheduled for February 25, 2010.

Auction Rate Securities Matters — The SEC and other regulatory authorities conducted investigations regarding the sale of auction rate securities (“ARS”). On July 20, 2009, TDA Inc. finalized settlements with the SEC and other regulatory authorities, concluding investigations by the regulators into TDA Inc.’s offer and sale of ARS. Under these settlement agreements, TDA Inc. commenced a tender offer to purchase, from certain current and former account holders, eligible ARS that were purchased through TDA Inc. on or before February 13, 2008, provided the ARS were not transferred away from the firm prior to January 24, 2006. This offer does not extend to clients who purchased ARS through independent registered investment advisors or through another firm and transferred such securities to TDA Inc. TDA Inc. will complete the program in two phases, based on the amount of assets a client holds at TDA Inc., and will complete all repurchases no later than June 30, 2010. In addition, TDA Inc. offered to make whole any losses sustained by eligible clients who purchased ARS through TDA Inc. on or before February 13, 2008 and sold such securities at a loss prior to July 20, 2009. TDA Inc. offered to reimburse clients whose borrowing costs exceeded the amount they earned in interest or dividends from their eligible ARS at the time they borrowed money from TDA Inc. to satisfy liquidity needs. TDA Inc. will participate in a special arbitration

process for the purpose of arbitrating eligible investors’ consequential damages claims arising from their inability to sell their eligible ARS. No fines were imposed by the regulators under the settlement agreements.

The offer commenced on August 10, 2009. Through December 31, 2009, TDA Inc. has purchased eligible ARS with an aggregate par value of approximately $269 million. TDA Inc. estimates that, as of December 31, 2009, ARS up to a total par value of approximately $114 million may remain outstanding and eligible for the tender offer. The ultimate amounts of tendered ARS purchased and remaining ARS eligible for the tender offer may decrease due to issuer redemptions. The Company is accounting for the ARS settlement as a financial guarantee. The Company recorded a charge to earnings of $13.8 million for the estimated fair value of this guarantee during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. As of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009, a liability of $2.0 million and $13.8 million, respectively, for this guarantee is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Reserve Fund Matters — During September 2008, The Reserve, an independent mutual fund company, announced that the net asset value of two of its money market mutual funds (the Primary Fund and the International Liquidity Fund) declined below $1.00 per share. In addition, The Reserve announced that the net asset value of the Reserve Yield Plus Fund, which is not a money market mutual fund, declined below $1.00 per share. TDA Inc.’s clients hold shares in these funds, which are being liquidated by The Reserve. From October 31, 2008 through January 29, 2010, Primary Fund, International Liquidity Fund and Yield Plus Fund shareholders have received distributions totaling approximately $0.99 per share, $0.86 per share and $0.94 per share, respectively. The SEC and other regulatory authorities are conducting investigations regarding TDA Inc.’s offering of The Reserve funds to clients. TDA Inc. has received subpoenas and other requests for documents and information from the regulatory authorities. TDA Inc. is cooperating with the investigations and requests.

In November 2008, a purported class action lawsuit was filed with respect to the Yield Plus Fund. The lawsuit is captioned Ross v. Reserve Management Company, Inc. et al. in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The Ross lawsuit is on behalf of persons who purchased shares of Reserve Yield Plus Fund. On November 20, 2009, the plaintiffs filed a first amended complaint naming as defendants the Fund’s advisor, certain of its affiliates and the Company and certain of its directors, officers and shareholders as alleged control persons. The complaint alleges claims of violations of the federal securities laws and other claims based on allegations that false and misleading statements and omissions were made in the Reserve Yield Plus Fund prospectuses and in other statements regarding the Fund. The complaint seeks an unspecified amount of compensatory damages including interest, attorneys’ fees, rescission, exemplary damages and equitable relief. On January 19, 2010, the defendants submitted motions to dismiss the complaint.

Legal and Regulatory Matters — The Company is subject to lawsuits, arbitrations, claims and other legal proceedings in connection with its business including, but not limited to, the matters discussed above. Some of the legal actions include claims for substantial or unspecified compensatory and/or punitive damages. A substantial adverse judgment or other unfavorable resolution of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows or could cause the Company significant reputational harm. Management believes the Company has adequate legal defenses with respect to the legal proceedings to which it is a defendant or respondent and the outcome of these pending proceedings is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. However, the Company is unable to predict the outcome or the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters, or the eventual loss that may result from these matters.

In the normal course of business, the Company discusses matters with its regulators raised during regulatory examinations or otherwise subject to their inquiry. These matters, including, but not limited to, the regulatory matters discussed above, could result in censures, fines, penalties or other sanctions. Management believes the outcome of any resulting actions will not be material to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, the Company is unable to predict the outcome or the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters, or the eventual fines, penalties or injunctive or other equitable relief that may result from these matters.

Income Taxes — The Company’s federal and state income tax returns are subject to examination by taxing authorities. Because the application of tax laws and regulations to many types of transactions is subject to varying interpretations, amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements could be significantly changed at a later date upon final determinations by taxing authorities. The Toronto-Dominion Bank (“TD”) has agreed to indemnify the Company for tax obligations, if any, pertaining to activities of TD Waterhouse prior to the Company’s acquisition of TD Waterhouse.

General Contingencies — In the ordinary course of business, there are various contingencies that are not reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. These include the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiaries’ client activities involving the execution, settlement and financing of various client securities transactions. These activities may expose the Company to credit risk in the event the clients are unable to fulfill their contractual obligations.

Client securities activities are transacted on either a cash or margin basis. In margin transactions, the Company extends credit to the client, subject to various regulatory and internal margin requirements, collateralized by cash and securities in the client’s account. In connection with these activities, the Company also executes and clears client transactions involving the sale of securities not yet purchased (“short sales”). Such margin-related transactions may expose the Company to credit risk in the event a client’s assets are not sufficient to fully cover losses that the client may incur. In the event the client fails to satisfy its obligations, the Company has the authority to purchase or sell financial instruments in the client’s account at prevailing market prices in order to fulfill the client’s obligations. The Company seeks to mitigate the risks associated with its client securities activities by requiring clients to maintain margin collateral in compliance with various regulatory and internal guidelines. The Company monitors required margin levels throughout each trading day and, pursuant to such guidelines, requires clients to deposit additional collateral, or to reduce positions, when necessary.

The Company loans securities temporarily to other broker-dealers in connection with its broker-dealer business. The Company receives cash as collateral for the securities loaned. Increases in securities prices may cause the market value of the securities loaned to exceed the amount of cash received as collateral. In the event the counterparty to these transactions does not return the loaned securities, the Company may be exposed to the risk of acquiring the securities at prevailing market prices in order to satisfy its client obligations. The Company mitigates this risk by requiring credit approvals for counterparties, by monitoring the market value of securities loaned on a daily basis and requiring additional cash as collateral when necessary, and by participating in a risk-sharing program offered through the Options Clearing Corporation (“OCC”).

The Company borrows securities temporarily from other broker-dealers in connection with its broker-dealer business. The Company deposits cash as collateral for the securities borrowed. Decreases in securities prices may cause the market value of the securities borrowed to fall below the amount of cash deposited as collateral. In the event the counterparty to these transactions does not return the cash deposited, the Company may be exposed to the risk of selling the securities at prevailing market prices. The Company mitigates this risk by requiring credit approvals for counterparties, by monitoring the collateral values on a daily basis and requiring collateral to be returned by the counterparties when necessary, and by participating in a risk-sharing program offered through the OCC.

The Company transacts in reverse repurchase agreements in connection with its broker-dealer business. The Company’s policy is to take possession or control of securities with a market value in excess of the principal amount loaned, plus accrued interest, in order to collateralize resale agreements. The Company monitors the market value of the underlying securities that collateralize the related receivable on resale agreements on a daily basis and may require additional collateral when deemed appropriate.

As of December 31, 2009, client excess margin securities of approximately $8.8 billion and stock borrowings of approximately $1.0 billion were available to the Company to utilize as collateral on various borrowings or for other purposes. The Company had loaned approximately $2.0 billion and repledged approximately $0.7 billion of that collateral as of December 31, 2009.

Guarantees — The Company is a member of and provides guarantees to securities clearinghouses and exchanges. Under related agreements, the Company is generally required to guarantee the performance of other members. Under these agreements, if a member becomes unable to satisfy its obligations to the clearinghouse, other members would be required to meet shortfalls. The Company’s liability under these arrangements is not quantifiable and could exceed the cash and securities it has posted to the clearinghouse as collateral. However, the potential for the Company to be required to make payments under these agreements is considered remote. Accordingly, no contingent liability is carried on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for these guarantees.

See “Insured Deposit Account Agreement” in Note 10 for a description of a guarantee included in that agreement.

See “Auction Rate Securities Matters” above in this Note 6 for a description of a guarantee related to the ARS settlement.

During September 2008, the net asset value of two money market mutual funds held by some of the Company’s clients, the Primary Fund and the International Liquidity Fund, declined below $1.00 per share. These funds are managed by The Reserve, an independent mutual fund company. The Reserve subsequently announced it was suspending redemptions of these funds to effect an orderly liquidation. The Company announced a commitment of up to $55 million to protect its clients’ positions in these funds. In the event the Company’s clients receive less than $1.00 per share for these funds upon an orderly liquidation, the Company will commit up to $50 million (or $0.03 per share of the fund) for clients in the Primary Fund and up to $5 million for clients in the International Liquidity Fund to mitigate client losses. Based on information from The Reserve and other publicly available information, the Company has accrued an estimated fair value of $27.0 million for this obligation as of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009, which is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Employment Agreements — The Company has entered into employment agreements with several of its key executive officers. These employment agreements generally provide for annual base salary and incentive compensation, stock award acceleration and severance payments in the event of termination of employment under certain defined circumstances or changes in control of the Company. Incentive compensation amounts are based on the Company’s financial performance and other factors.

7. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

Fair Value Measurement — Definition and Hierarchy

ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation approaches, including market, income and/or cost approaches. ASC 820-10 establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels, as follows:

	•		Level 1— Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. This category includes active exchange-traded funds, mutual funds and equity securities.
	•		Level 2— Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Such inputs include quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. This category includes most debt securities and other interest-sensitive investment securities.
	•		Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, where there is little, if any, observable market activity or data for the asset or liability. This category includes assets and liabilities related to money market mutual funds managed by The Reserve for which the net asset value has declined below $1.00 per share and the funds are being liquidated. This category also includes auction rate securities for which the periodic auctions have failed.

The following tables present the Company’s fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009 (dollars in thousands):

Effective October 1, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820-10 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. There were no nonfinancial assets or liabilities measured at fair value during the quarter ended December 31, 2009.

Valuation Techniques

In general, and where applicable, the Company uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities to determine fair value. This pricing methodology applies to the Company’s Level 1 investments. If quoted prices in active

markets for identical assets and liabilities are not available to determine fair value, then the Company uses quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities or inputs other than the quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. This pricing methodology applies to the Company’s Level 2 investments.

Money Market Mutual Funds — The fair value of money market mutual fund positions in the Primary Fund is estimated by management based on the underlying portfolio holdings data published by The Reserve and is categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Auction Rate Securities — ARS are long-term variable rate securities tied to short-term interest rates that are reset through a “Dutch auction” process, which generally occurs every seven to 35 days. Holders of ARS were previously able to liquidate their holdings to prospective buyers by participating in the auctions. During fiscal 2008, the Dutch auction process failed and holders were no longer able to liquidate their holdings through the auction process. The fair value of Company ARS holdings is estimated based on an internal pricing model and categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The pricing model takes into consideration the characteristics of the underlying securities as well as multiple inputs, including counterparty credit quality, expected timing of early redemptions and the yield premium that a market participant would require over otherwise comparable securities to compensate for the illiquidity of the ARS. These inputs require significant management judgment.

Fair Value of Long-Term Debt

As of December 31, 2009, the Company’s Senior Notes had an aggregate estimated fair value, based on quoted market prices, of approximately $1.25 billion, which approximated the aggregate carrying value of the Senior Notes on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of September 30, 2009, the Company’s Term A and Term B credit facilities had an aggregate estimated fair value, based on quoted market prices, of $1.39 billion, compared to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet carrying value of $1.41 billion.

10. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Transactions with TD and Affiliates

As a result of the acquisition of TD Waterhouse during fiscal 2006, TD became an affiliate of the Company. TD owned approximately 45% of the Company’s common stock as of December 31, 2009. Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, TD has the right to designate five of twelve members to the Company’s board of directors. The Company transacts business and has extensive relationships with TD and certain of its affiliates. A description of significant transactions with TD and its affiliates is set forth below.

Insured Deposit Account Agreement

The Company is party to an insured deposit account (“IDA”) agreement (formerly known as the money market deposit account or “MMDA” agreement) with TD Bank USA, N.A. (“TD Bank USA”), TD Bank, N.A., (“TD Bank”, and together with TD Bank USA, the “Depository Institutions”) and TD. Under the IDA agreement, the Depository Institutions make available to clients of the Company money market deposit accounts as either designated sweep vehicles or as non-sweep deposit accounts. The Company provides marketing, recordkeeping and support services for the Depository Institutions with respect to the money market deposit accounts. In exchange for providing these services, the Depository Institutions pay the Company a fee based on the yield earned by the Depository Institutions on the client IDA assets, less the actual interest paid to clients, a flat fee to TD Bank USA of 25 basis points and the cost of FDIC insurance premiums.

The IDA agreement has a term of five years beginning July 1, 2008, and is automatically renewable for successive five-year terms, provided that it may be terminated by any party upon two years’ prior written notice. The agreement provides that the marketing fee earned on the IDA agreement is calculated based on three primary components: (a) the actual yield earned on investments in place as of July 1, 2008, which were primarily fixed-income securities backed by Canadian government guarantees, (b) the yield on other fixed-rate investments, based on prevailing fixed rates for identical balances and maturities in the interest rate swap market (generally LIBOR-based) at the time such investments were added to the IDA portfolio and (c) floating-rate investments, based on the monthly average rate for 30-day LIBOR. The agreement provides that, from time to time, the Company may request amounts and maturity dates for the other fixed-rate investments (component (b) above) in the IDA portfolio, subject to the approval of the Depository Institutions. For the month of December 2009, the IDA portfolio was comprised of approximately 15% component (a) investments, 75% component (b) investments and 10% component (c) investments.

In the event the fee computation results in a negative amount, the Company must pay the Depository Institutions the negative amount. This effectively results in the Company guaranteeing the Depository Institutions revenue of 25 basis points on the IDA agreement, plus the reimbursement of FDIC insurance premiums. The fee computation under the IDA agreement is affected by many variables, including the type, duration, credit quality, principal balance and yield of the investment portfolio at the Depository Institutions, the prevailing interest rate environment, the amount of client deposits and the yield paid on client deposits. Because a negative IDA fee computation would arise only if there were extraordinary movements in many of these variables, the maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under this arrangement cannot be reasonably estimated. Management believes the potential for the fee calculation to result in a negative

amount is remote and the fair value of the guarantee is not material. Accordingly, no contingent liability is carried on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the IDA agreement.

The Company earned fee income associated with the insured deposit account agreement of $155.3 million and $163.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, which is reported as insured deposit account fees on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Mutual Fund Agreements

The Company and an affiliate of TD are parties to a sweep fund agreement, transfer agency agreement, shareholder services agreement and a dealer agreement pursuant to which certain mutual funds are made available as money market sweep or direct purchase options to Company clients. The Company performs certain distribution and marketing support services with respect to those funds. In consideration for offering the funds and performing the distribution and marketing support services, an affiliate of TD compensates the Company in accordance with the provisions of the sweep fund agreement. The Company also performs certain services for the applicable fund and earns fees for those services. The agreement may be terminated by any party upon one year’s prior written notice and may be terminated by the Company upon 30 days’ prior written notice under certain circumstances. The Company earned fee income associated with these agreements of $2.8 million and $51.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, which is included in investment product fees on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Securities Borrowing and Lending

In connection with its brokerage business, the Company engages in securities borrowing and lending with TD Securities, Inc. (“TDSI”), an affiliate of TD. Receivable from brokers, dealers and clearing organizations includes $0.6 million of receivables from TDSI as of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009. Payable to brokers, dealers and clearing organizations includes $28.0 million and $34.0 million of payables to TDSI as of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009, respectively. The Company earned net interest revenue of $0.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and incurred net interest expense of $0.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 associated with securities borrowing and lending with TDSI. The transactions with TDSI are subject to similar collateral requirements as transactions with other counterparties.

Cash Management Services Agreement

Pursuant to a cash management services agreement, TD Bank USA provides cash management services to clients of TDA Inc. In exchange for such services, the Company pays TD Bank USA service-based fees agreed upon by the parties. The Company incurred expense associated with the cash management services agreement of $0.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, which is included in clearing and execution costs on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The cash management services agreement will continue in effect for as long as the IDA agreement remains in effect, provided that it may be terminated by TDA Inc. without cause upon 60 days’ prior written notice to TD Bank USA.

Indemnification Agreement for Phantom Stock Plan Liabilities

Pursuant to an indemnification agreement, the Company agreed to assume TD Waterhouse liabilities related to the payout of awards under The Toronto-Dominion Bank 2002 Phantom Stock Incentive Plan following the completion of the TD Waterhouse acquisition. Under this plan, participants were granted units of stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) based on TD’s common stock that generally vest over four years. Upon exercise, the participant receives cash representing the appreciated value of the units between the grant date and the redemption date. In connection with the payout of awards under the 2002 Phantom Stock Incentive Plan, TD Discount Brokerage Holdings LLC (“TDDBH”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of TD, agreed to indemnify the Company for any liabilities incurred by the Company in excess of the provision for such liability included on the closing date balance sheet of TD Waterhouse. In addition, in the event that the liability incurred by the Company in connection with the 2002 Phantom Stock Incentive Plan is less than the provision for such liability included on the closing date balance sheet of TD Waterhouse, the Company agreed to pay the difference to TDDBH. There were 41,125 and 43,590 SARs outstanding as of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009, respectively, with an approximate value of $1.4 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The indemnification agreement effectively protects the Company against fluctuations in TD’s common stock price with respect to the SARs, so there will be no net effect on the Company’s results of operations resulting from such fluctuations.

Canadian Call Center Services Agreement

Pursuant to the Canadian call center services agreement, TD receives and services client calls at its London, Ontario site for clients of TDA Inc. After May 1, 2013, either party may terminate this agreement without cause and without penalty by providing 24 months’ prior written notice. In consideration of the performance by TD of the call center services, the Company pays TD, on a monthly basis, an amount approximately equal to TD’s monthly cost. The Company incurred expenses associated with the Canadian call center services agreement of $4.3 million and $3.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, which is included in professional services expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Certificates of Deposit Brokerage Agreement

TDA, Inc. is party to a certificates of deposit brokerage agreement with TD Bank USA, under which TDA Inc. acts as agent for its clients in purchasing certificates of deposit from TD Bank USA. Under the agreement, TD Bank USA pays TDA Inc. a placement fee for each certificate of deposit issued in an amount agreed to by both parties. During the first quarter of fiscal 2010, TDA Inc. promoted a limited time offer to purchase a three-month TD Bank USA certificate of deposit with a premium yield to clients that made a deposit or transferred $25,000 into their TDA Inc. brokerage account during a specified time period. Under this promotion, TDA Inc. reimburses TD Bank USA for the subsidized portion of the premium yield paid to its clients. The Company incurred net costs to TD Bank USA associated with this promotional offer of $1.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009, which is included in advertising expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Sale of thinkorswim Canada, Inc. and Trading Platform Hosting and Services Agreement

On June 11, 2009, immediately following the closing of the thinkorswim acquisition, the Company completed the sale of thinkorswim Canada, Inc. (“thinkorswim Canada”) to TD Waterhouse Canada Inc. (“TDW Canada”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of TD, for cash equal to the total tangible equity of thinkorswim Canada immediately prior to the closing of the transaction. The Company received gross proceeds from the sale of approximately $1.7 million. The Company did not recognize a gain or loss on the sale of thinkorswim Canada.

In connection with the sale of thinkorswim Canada, the Company and TDW Canada entered into a trading platform hosting and services agreement. The agreement has an initial term of five years beginning June 11, 2009, and will automatically renew for additional periods of two years, unless either party provides notice of non-renewal to the other party at least 90 days prior to the end of the then-current term. Because this agreement represents contingent consideration to be paid for the sale of thinkorswim Canada, the Company recorded a $10.7 million receivable for the fair value of this agreement. Under this agreement, TDW Canada will use the thinkorswim, Inc. trading platform and thinkorswim, Inc. will provide the services to support the platform. In consideration for the performance by thinkorswim, Inc. of all its obligations under this agreement, TDW Canada will pay thinkorswim, Inc., on a monthly basis, a fee based on average client trades per day and transactional revenues. Fees earned under the agreement will be recorded as a reduction of the contingent consideration receivable until the receivable is reduced to zero, and thereafter will be recorded as fee revenue. As of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009, $10.2 million and $10.4 million, respectively, of contingent consideration is included in receivable from affiliates on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Other Related Party Transactions

TD Options LLC, a subsidiary of TD, pays the Company the amount of exchange-sponsored payment for order flow that it receives for routing TDA Inc. client orders to the exchanges. The Company earned $0.5 million and $0.7 million of payment for order flow revenues from TD Options LLC for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, which is included in commissions and transaction fees on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

TD Securities (USA) LLC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of TD, was the joint lead manager and participated as an underwriter in the Company’s offering of $1.25 billion of Senior Notes in November 2009. In this capacity, TD Securities (USA) LLC earned a discount and commission of $0.5 million. This amount is being accounted for as part of the debt issuance costs included in other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and is being amortized to interest expense over the terms of the respective Senior Notes.

Except as otherwise indicated, receivables from and payables to TD and affiliates of TD resulting from the related party transactions described above are included in receivable from affiliates and payable to affiliates, respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Receivables from and payables to TD affiliates resulting from client cash sweep activity are

generally settled in cash the next business day. Other receivables from and payables to affiliates of TD are generally settled in cash on a monthly basis.

11. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION
