Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On September 15, 2014, TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation (“TD Ameritrade”) entered into a Loan Agreement with First National Bank of Omaha (“First National”) under which First National provided a loan in the aggregate principal amount of $68.5 million, the proceeds of which were used to purchase real estate for use in TD Ameritrade's operations.  The loan is secured by a lien against the purchased real estate and is guaranteed by ThinkTech, Inc. and TD Ameritrade Online Holdings Corp., each a wholly owned subsidiary of TD Ameritrade.

The principal amount of the loan plus accrued interest is due and payable in 20 consecutive quarterly installments, beginning January 1, 2015, with the last installment due on October 1, 2019.  The interest rate under the Loan Agreement is based on the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), adjusted and determined monthly, plus 1.375 percentage points over the LIBOR index. TD Ameritrade may prepay any principal or interest under the loan without penalty or other cost. The representations and warranties, covenants and defaults applicable under the loan agreement are substantially consistent with the terms of TD Ameritrade's syndicated credit agreement dated June 11, 2014, and other terms and conditions of the loan agreement are customary for a transaction of this type. 

The foregoing description of the Loan Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
