The Charles Schwab Corporation (“CSC”) today announced that, as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 7, 2021 (the “Early Participation Date”), the aggregate principal amount of the four series of notes described in the table below (collectively, the “Old Notes”) issued by TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation (“TDA Holding”) had been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in connection with CSC’s previously announced offers to exchange (the “exchange offers”) all validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) and accepted Old Notes of each such series for new notes to be issued by CSC (collectively, the “CSC Notes”), and the related solicitations of consents (the “consent solicitations”) from holders of the Old Notes (on behalf of TDA Holding) to certain proposed amendments to the corresponding indenture and to supplemental indentures pursuant to which such Old Notes were issued (the “TDA Indentures”). A registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-259030) (the “Registration Statement”) relating to the exchange offers and consent solicitations was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 24, 2021, but has not yet been declared effective.

The deadline to receive the Early Participation Premium (as defined below) has been extended beyond the Early Participation Date to 8:00 a.m., New York City time, on September 22, 2021, unless extended or earlier terminated (the “Expiration Date”), such that in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Old Notes that is validly tendered after the Early Participation Date but prior to the Expiration Date and not validly withdrawn, holders of such Old Notes will be eligible to receive the Total Consideration (as defined below).

The Consent Revocation Deadline for all series of Old Notes has not been extended and occurred on 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 7, 2021. As a result, consents to amend the TDA Indentures that have been validly delivered in connection with any Old Notes may no longer be revoked.

The exchange offers and consent solicitations are being made pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the prospectus dated August 24, 2021 (the “Prospectus”), which forms part of the Registration Statement, and the related Letter of Transmittal and Consent (the “Letter of Transmittal”). The exchange offers and consent solicitations commenced on August 24, 2021 and expire on the Expiration Date. In exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Old Notes that were validly tendered prior to the Early Participation Date, and not validly withdrawn, holders of such Old Notes will be eligible to receive the total consideration (the “Total Consideration”), which consists of $1,000 principal amount of the corresponding CSC Notes and $1.00 cash. The Total Consideration includes an early participation premium (the “Early Participation Premium”), which consists of $30 principal amount of the corresponding series of CSC Notes per $1,000 principal amount of Old Notes. The consummation of each exchange offer is subject to, and conditional upon, the satisfaction or, where permitted, waiver of the conditions in the Registration Statement. CSC may, at its option, waive any such conditions except for the condition that the Registration Statement of which the Prospectus forms a part has been declared effective by the SEC. All conditions to the exchange offers must be satisfied or, where permitted, waived, at or by the Expiration Date.

Tenders of Old Notes in connection with any of the exchange offers may be withdrawn at any time prior to the Expiration Date of the applicable exchange offer. Following the Expiration Date, tenders of Old Notes may not be validly withdrawn unless CSC is otherwise required by law to permit withdrawal.

The CSC Notes will be unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of CSC and will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of CSC issued from time to time.

Each CSC Note issued in exchange for an Old Note will have an interest rate, interest payment dates and maturity that are the same as the interest rate, the interest payment dates and maturity of the tendered Old Note, as well as substantively the same optional redemption provisions. No accrued but unpaid interest will be paid on the Old Notes in connection with the exchange offers. However, interest on the applicable CSC Note will accrue from and including the most recent interest payment date of the tendered Old Note. Subject to the minimum denominations as described in the Registration Statement, the principal amount of each CSC Note will be rounded down, if necessary, to the nearest whole multiple of $1,000, and CSC will pay a cash rounding amount equal to the remaining portion, if any, of the exchange price of such Old Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such portion of the Old Notes not exchanged.

Questions concerning the terms of the exchange offers or the consent solicitations for the Old Notes should be directed to the joint lead dealer managers and joint lead solicitation agents:

This press release, the Prospectus and any other document or materials relating to the issue of the CSC Notes offered hereby is not a Prospectus for the purposes of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (the “Prospectus Regulation”). The communication of this press release, the Prospectus and any other document or materials relating to the issue of the CSC Notes offered hereby is not being made, and such documents and/or materials have not been approved, by an authorized person for the purposes of Section 21 of the United Kingdom’s Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (as amended, the “FSMA”). Accordingly, such documents and materials are not being distributed to, and must not be directed at, the general public in the United Kingdom. The communication of such documents and/or materials is only being made to those persons in the United Kingdom who have professional experience in matters relating to investments and who fall within the definition of investment professionals (as defined in Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 (as amended, the “Order”)), or who fall within Article 49(2)(a) to (d) of the Order (all such persons together being referred to as “Relevant Persons”). In the United Kingdom, the Prospectus and the CSC Notes offered thereby are only available to, and any investment or investment activity to which the Prospectus and any other document or materials relating to the issue of the CSC Notes offered thereby relates, will be engaged in only with, Relevant Persons. Any person in the United Kingdom that is not a Relevant Person should not act or rely on the Prospectus or any of its contents.

PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EEA RETAIL INVESTORS— The CSC Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or in the United Kingdom (“UK”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of the following: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive (EU) 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”), (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended, the “Insurance Distribution Directive”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II or (iii) a person that is not a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Regulation. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No. 1286/2014 (as amended, the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the CSC Notes and otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA or in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the securities or otherwise making them available to a retail investor in the EEA or in the UK may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

MiFID II PRODUCT GOVERNANCE/TARGET MARKET— Solely for the purposes of each manufacturer’s product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the CSC Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the CSC Notes is eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined in MiFID II and (ii) all channels for distribution of the CSC Notes to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the CSC Notes (a “distributor”) should take into consideration the manufacturers’ target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the CSC Notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers’ target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.
