ARTICLE I

CERTAIN AMENDMENTS

1.01 Base Indenture. Pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Base Indenture, the Company and the Trustee (in the case of the Trustee, acting in reliance upon the evidence of the Requisite Consent the Company has received from the Holders of the outstanding Securities, as certified by Global Bondholder Services Corporation) hereby agree to amend or supplement certain provisions of the Base Indenture as follows:

(a) At such time the Other Remaining Notes are no longer outstanding and the Notes are the only outstanding series of Securities under the Base Indenture, the following amendments shall enter into effect:

(i) Section 4.07 of the Base Indenture is to be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“Section 4.07. Reports by Company.

The Company shall comply with the provisions of Section 314(a) of the Trust Indenture Act to the extent applicable.”

(ii) Section 4.09 is to be amended and restated in its entirety to delete Section 4.09 and all references and definitions to the extent solely relating thereto in their entirety and replacing such Section 4.09 with “[Reserved]”.

(iii) Section 5.01 is to be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“Section 5.01. Consolidation, Merger by the Company. The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into any other Person and the Company shall not permit any Person to consolidate with or merge into the Company, unless:

(a) either:

(i) the Company is the surviving corporation; or

(ii) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) is a corporation or limited liability company organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia; and

(b) the Company or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made, shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that such transaction and any supplemental indenture entered into in connection therewith comply with all of the terms of this covenant and that all conditions precedent

3

provided for in this covenant relating to such transaction or series of transactions have been complied with.

This Section 5.01 will not apply to:

(a) a merger of the Company with an Affiliate solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Company in another jurisdiction; or

(b) any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition of assets between or among the Company and its Subsidiaries.”

(iv) Section 5.02 is to be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

Section 5.02. Successor Corporation Substituted. Upon any consolidation or merger, in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 5.01 hereof, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation or merger, the provisions of this Indenture referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to the Company), and may exercise every right and power of the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company herein.

Such successor Person may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company prior to such succession, any or all of the Securities issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor Person instead of the Company and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver any Securities which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication pursuant to such provisions and any Securities which such successor Person thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee on its behalf for that purpose pursuant to such provisions. All of the Securities so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Securities had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

In case of any such consolidation, merger, such changes in phraseology and form may be made in the Securities thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

1.02 Supplemental Indentures.

(a) Limitation on Liens.

(i) The First Supplemental Indenture, the Third Supplemental Indenture and the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, are hereby amended by deleting Section 4.01 in each such supplemental indenture and all references and definitions to the extent solely relating thereto in their entirety and replacing such Section 4.01 in each such supplemental indenture with “[Intentionally Omitted]”

“4.01 Limitation on Liens.

(a) As long as any of the Floating Rate Notes are outstanding, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, create, assume, incur or guarantee any indebtedness for borrowed money secured by a pledge, lien or other encumbrance, except for

4

Permitted Liens, on the Voting Stock of TD Ameritrade Online Holdings Corp., TD Ameritrade Clearing, Inc. and TD Ameritrade, Inc. unless the Company shall cause the Floating Rate Notes to be secured equally and ratably with (or, at the Company’s option, prior to) any indebtedness secured thereby.

(b) When a Lien securing indebtedness for borrowed money that gave rise to the requirement under Section 4.01(a) that the Floating Rate Notes be secured equally and ratably thereby is released or terminated, as the case may be, by the holder or holders thereof, then the corresponding Lien that secures the Floating Rate Notes shall be deemed automatically released or terminated, as the case may be, without further act or deed on the part of any Person. At the request of the Company, the Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument evidencing such release or termination.”
