THIS SECURITY IS A REGISTERED GLOBAL SECURITY WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF. THIS SECURITY IS EXCHANGEABLE FOR SECURITIES REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A PERSON OTHER THAN THE DEPOSITARY OR ITS NOMINEE ONLY IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE AND, UNLESS AND UNTIL IT IS EXCHANGED IN WHOLE OR IN PART FOR SECURITIES IN DEFINITIVE REGISTERED FORM, THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO THE NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY.

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Security” as used herein shall refer only to the Securities of this series and not any other series, unless the context requires otherwise.

(1) INTEREST. TD AMERITRADE HOLDING CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at 3.300% per annum from April 27, 2017 until the 2027 Maturity Date. The Company will pay interest semiannually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the Original Issue Date; provided that the first Interest Payment Date shall be October 1, 2017. Interest accrued on the Securities from the last Interest Payment Date before the 2027 Maturity Date shall be payable on the 2027 Maturity Date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

(2) METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company will pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Securities at the close of business on the March 15 or September 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Securities are cancelled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.13 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest; provided that interest payable on the 2027 Maturity Date or upon redemption will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable. The Securities will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest and premium, if any, on all Securities, the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent; provided, further, that while the Securities are represented by one or more Registered Global Securities registered in the name of the Depositary, or its nominee, the Company will cause payments of principal and interest on such Registered Global Securities to be made to the Depositary or its

 

A-1-3


nominee, as the case may be, by wire transfer to the extent, in the funds and in the manner required by agreements with, or regulations or procedures prescribed from time to time by the Depositary or its nominee, and otherwise in accordance with such agreements, regulations or procedures. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

(3) PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, U.S. Bank National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

(4) INDENTURE. The Company issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as of October 22, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of April 27, 2017 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) among the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act (the “TIA”). The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Security conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Securities are unsecured obligations of the Company. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of Securities that may be issued thereunder.

(5) OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.

(a) Prior to January 1, 2027 (three months prior to the 2027 Maturity Date) (the “Par Call Date”), the Company shall have the right to redeem the Securities, at its option, at any time in whole, or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Securities to be redeemed (excluding any portion of such payments of interest accrued and unpaid as of the redemption date) assuming that such Securities matured on the Par Call Date, discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year, consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points, plus, in each case of (i) and (ii), accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date.

(b) On or after the Par Call Date, the Company shall have the right to redeem the Securities, at its option, at any time in whole, or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date.

(c) Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or portions thereof called for redemption.

Securities in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Securities held by a Holder are to be redeemed.

(6) SPECIAL MANDATORY REDEMPTION. If (x) the consummation of the Scottrade Acquisition does not occur on or before April 24, 2018 (the “Extended Termination Date”) or (y) the Company notifies the Trustee in writing that it will not pursue the consummation of the Scottrade Acquisition (the earlier of the date of delivery of such notice described in clause (y) and the Extended Termination Date, the “Special Mandatory Redemption Trigger Date”), the Company will be required to redeem the Securities then outstanding (such redemption, the “Special Mandatory Redemption”) at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Special Mandatory Redemption Date (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”).

In the event that the Company becomes obligated to redeem the Securities pursuant to the Special Mandatory Redemption, the Company will promptly, and in any event not more than ten Business Days after the Special Mandatory Redemption Trigger Date, deliver notice to the Trustee of the Special Mandatory Redemption and the date upon which such Securities will be redeemed (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Date”) which date shall be no later than the third Business Day following the date of such notice, together with a notice of Special Mandatory Redemption, for the Trustee to deliver to each registered Holder of Securities to be redeemed. The Trustee will then promptly mail, or deliver electronically if such Securities are held by any depositary (including, without limitation, DTC) in accordance with such depositary’s customary procedures, such notice of Special Mandatory Redemption to each registered Holder of Securities to be redeemed at its registered address. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Special Mandatory Redemption Price, on and after such Special Mandatory Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on the Securities that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to the Special Mandatory Redemption Date will be payable on such Interest Payment Dates to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant record dates in accordance with this Security and the Indenture.

(7) DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. The transfer of Securities may be registered and Securities may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Security or portion of a Security selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Securities for a period of 15 days before a selection of Securities to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

(9) AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities affected by such modification, to add, change or eliminate any provision thereof, or to modify the rights of such Holders thereunder. Without the consent of any Holder of a Security, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented to (i) effect the assumption of the Company’s obligations under the Indenture by a successor Person; (ii) to impose additional covenants and Events of Default or to add guarantees of other Persons for the benefit of the Holders; (iii) to add or change any of the provisions of the Indenture relating to the issuance or exchange of the Securities in registered form, but only if such action does not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Securities or related coupons in any material respect; (iv) to change or eliminate any of the provisions of the Indenture, but only if the change or elimination becomes effective when there are no outstanding Securities of any series, or related coupon, which are entitled to the benefit of such provision and as to which such modification would apply; (v) to secure the Securities; (vi) to supplement any of the provisions of the Indenture to permit or facilitate the defeasance and discharge of the Securities, but only if such action does not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of outstanding Securities of any series or related coupons in any material respect; (vii) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee and to add to or change any of the provisions of the Indenture to facilitate the administration of the trusts by more than one Trustee; (viii) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision in the Indenture or the Securities which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision herein, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Indenture or the Securities, provided that such action pursuant to this clause (viii) shall not adversely affect the interests of the holders of outstanding Securities of any series in any material respect; (ix) to conform the text of the Indenture or the Securities to any provision of a description of such Securities appearing in a prospectus or prospectus supplement or an offering memorandum or offering circular pursuant to which such Securities were offered to the extent that such provision was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of the Indenture or the Securities; and (x) to comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time outstanding, on behalf of all the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.

(10) DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

(11) TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee.

(12) NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company, as such, will not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Securities.

(13) AUTHENTICATION. This Security will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

(14) ABBREVIATIONS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

(15) CUSIP NUMBERS. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Securities, and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption, and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

(16) GOVERNING LAW. THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN THE INDENTURE AND THIS SECURITY WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

The Company will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. Requests may be made to:
