Item 1 Comment:
This Amendment No. 3 ("Amendment No. 3") hereby amends and supplements the statement of beneficial ownership on Schedule 13D, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on October 6, 2020, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed with the SEC on August 3, 2022, as amended by Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on August 23, 2024 (as so amended, the "Statement"), relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of The Charles Schwab Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer").
The Amendment No. 3 is being filed by The Toronto-Dominion Bank, a Canadian chartered bank ("TD"), and TD Group US Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of TD ("TD GUS" and, together with TD, the "TD Entities" or the "Reporting Persons").
This Amendment No. 3 reflects, among other things: (i) on October 28, 2024, TD completed an internal restructuring transaction which involved the transfer of the Issuer securities held by TD Luxembourg International Holdings SARL ("TD LIH"), a wholly owned subsidiary of TD GUS, to TD US Newco 4 LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of TD GUS ("TD Newco"), and the liquidation and dissolution of TD LIH (the "2024 Internal Restructuring Transaction"), (ii) on February 7, 2025, TD completed an internal restructuring transaction which involved the transfer of the Issuer securities held by TD Newco to its parent, TD GUS, and (iii) the transactions described herein.
Each Item herein amends and supplements the information disclosed under the corresponding Item of the Statement. Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used and not defined in this Amendment No. 3 shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Statement. | ||
| Item 2. | Identity and Background | |
| (a) | Item 2 of the Statement is hereby amended by (i) incorporating herein by reference the information set forth on the updated Schedule I attached hereto and (ii) removing TD LIH as a Reporting Person as a result of the 2024 Internal Restructuring Transaction described above. | |
| Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction | |
Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended and supplemented by the following:
On February 10, 2025, in connection with a registered secondary public offering (the "Secondary Offering") of Common Stock, TD GUS, the Issuer and the underwriters party thereto (the "Underwriters"), entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") pursuant to which TD GUS agreed to sell to the Underwriters, and the Underwriters agreed to purchase from TD GUS, subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth therein, 133,785,043 shares of Common Stock and 31,658,487 shares of the Issuer's Nonvoting Common Stock, at a price to the public of $79.25 per share, less the underwriting discount of $1.268 per share. The Secondary Offering was completed on February 12, 2025.
In connection with and subject to the Secondary Offering, the Issuer agreed to repurchase and TD GUS agreed to sell to the Issuer, pursuant to a repurchase agreement dated as of February 9, 2025, 19,235,208 shares of the Issuer's Nonvoting Common Stock, at a price equal to $77.982, being the price per share TD GUS received from the Underwriters pursuant to the Secondary Offering (the "Share Repurchase"). The Share Repurchase was completed on February 12, 2025.

The 1,329,350 shares of Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by TD reflect shares of Common Stock that may, as of February 10, 2025, be deemed to be beneficially owned directly by TD or indirectly through subsidiaries in connection with TD's banking, securities, derivatives, asset management or similar businesses, including in client, brokerage and investment accounts.
