Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
2006 Fiscal Year Bonus
On October 25, 2006, the HR & Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation awarded bonuses to its executive officers under the Ameritrade Holding Corporation 2002 Management Incentive Plan for fiscal year 2006. The bonuses consisted of cash and performance restricted stock units, which were granted using the form of performance restricted stock unit agreement previously described on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 9, 2006.
The performance restricted stock units vest equally over three years based on TD AMERITRADE’s earnings per share (“EPS”) in each of fiscal year 2007, 2008 and 2009. The HR & Compensation Committee established target EPS for fiscal year 2007 and formulas with respect to target EPS for fiscal years 2008 and 2009, with a payout percentage from 0% to 120% of target EPS based on the excess or deficit of actual EPS compared to target EPS, in each case subject to the Compensation Committee’s authority to award a lesser amount. In addition, no performance restricted stock units will vest unless the grantee is employed by TD AMERITRADE on October 26, 2009.
The description of the form of performance restricted stock unit agreement included in the March 9, 2006 Current Report on Form 8-K referred to above is incorporated by reference into this Current Report on Form 8-K (which is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the performance restricted stock unit agreement attached as Exhibit 10.1 to the March 9, 2006 Current Report on Form 8-K).
