AMTD TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation

As previously disclosed, on November 24, 2019, TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“TD Ameritrade”), and The Charles Schwab Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Schwab”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, as amended on May 14, 2020 (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, a wholly owned subsidiary of Schwab will be merged with and into TD Ameritrade (the “Merger”), with TD Ameritrade continuing as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Schwab.

The Merger is conditioned on, among other things, the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”). As previously disclosed, on January 29, 2020, TD Ameritrade and Schwab each received a request for additional information and documentary material, often referred to as a “second request,” from the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) pursuant to the HSR Act.

On June 3, 2020, Schwab and TD Ameritrade substantially complied with the second request and were later informed that the DOJ has decided to close its investigation of the proposed transaction. The parties expect to receive termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act promptly.

Completion of the Merger remains subject to the satisfaction (or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waiver) of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.
