Beneficial ownership information for TD Luxembourg International Holdings SARL is as of August 1, 2022.

Based on 1,817,057,306 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of April 29, 2022, as disclosed in the Issuers Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on May 9, 2022, plus the automatic conversion of 13,369,187 shares of Nonvoting Common Stock into Common Stock upon consummation of the 144 Sale (as defined herein).


CUSIP No. 808513105    SCHEDULE 13D    Page 5 of 11

 

This Amendment No. 1 hereby amends and supplements the statement of beneficial ownership on Schedule 13D, initially filed on October 6, 2020 (the Original Statement, and as amended hereby, the Statement), relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Common Stock), of The Charles Schwab Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the Issuer).

The Statement is being filed by The Toronto-Dominion Bank, a Canadian chartered bank (TD), TD Group US Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of TD (TD GUS), and TD Luxembourg International Holdings SARL, a private limited liability company existing under the laws of Luxembourg and a wholly-owned subsidiary of TD GUS (TD LIH and, together with TD and TD GUS, the TD Entities or the Reporting Persons).

Each Item below amends and supplements the information disclosed under the corresponding Item of the Original Statement. Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used and not defined in this Amendment No. 1 shall have the respective meanings herein as are ascribed to such terms in the Original Statement.

 

Item 1.

Security and Issuer.

Item 1 of the Original Statement is hereby amended and supplemented by the following:

The address of the principal executive offices of the Issuer is The Charles Schwab Corporation, 3000 Schwab Way, Westlake, TX 76262.

 

Item 2.

Identity and Background.

The information set forth in the amended and restated Schedule I hereto is incorporated by reference in this amended Item 2.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of the Original Statement is hereby amended and supplemented by the following:

In connection with the review by the TD Entities of their investment in the Issuer, the TD Entities determined to sell shares of Issuer Common Stock to provide capital for the proposed acquisition of Cowen Inc. by TD pursuant to a merger agreement announced on August 2, 2022. Accordingly, on July 31, 2022, TD LIH entered into a repurchase agreement with the Issuer (the Repurchase Agreement), pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to repurchase the maximum number of shares of Nonvoting Common Stock that would result in an aggregate purchase price not in excess of $1,000,000,000 (the Repurchase). The Repurchase was conditioned upon TD LIH executing a sale of at least 10,000,000 shares of Nonvoting Common Stock to one or more brokers pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (such sale, the 144 Sale), by 10 p.m. New York City time on August 1, 2022, with the Repurchase Agreement providing that the per share purchase price to be paid by the Issuer would be equal to the lowest price per share at which any broker purchases from TD LIH in the 144 Sale.

On August 1, 2022, TD LIH executed the 144 Sale, selling 13,369,187 shares of Nonvoting Common Stock to a broker dealer pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and also sold 15,030,813 shares of Nonvoting Common Stock directly to the Issuer pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement. The price per share in each of the foregoing transactions was $66.53 per share. Each share of Nonvoting Common Stock sold via the Repurchase or the 144 Sale is automatically converted simultaneously with the consummation of such transactions into one share of Common Stock in accordance with the Issuers certificate of incorporation. All shares of Common Stock received by the Issuer via the Repurchase will no longer be outstanding.


Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 of the Original Statement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a) and (b). As of August 1, 2022, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have beneficially owned an aggregate of 175,778,751 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 9.6% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (based on the 1,817,057,306 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of April 29, 2022, as disclosed in the Issuers Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on May 9, 2022, plus the automatic conversion of 13,369,187 shares of Nonvoting Common Stock into Common Stock in connection with the 144 Sale).

TD LIH is the record and beneficial owner of 174,285,043 shares of Common Stock. TD GUS, as the sole owner of TD LIH, and TD, as the sole owner of TD GUS, may be deemed to be the beneficial owners of the shares of Common Stock held by TD LIH.

The 175,778,751 shares of Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by TD include 1,493,708 shares of Common Stock that may, as of August 1, 2022, be deemed to be beneficially owned directly by TD or indirectly through subsidiaries in connection with TDs banking, securities, derivatives, asset management or similar businesses, including in client, brokerage and investment accounts.

Except for Mr. Levitt, Ms. Maidment, Mr. Masrani, and Ms. Goggins, none of the individuals listed on Schedule I beneficially own any shares of Common Stock. Mr. Levitt beneficially owns 25,740 shares of Common Stock, Ms. Maidment beneficially owns 37,658 shares of Common Stock, Mr. Masrani beneficially owns 3,894 shares of Common Stock, and Ms. Goggins beneficially owns 1,029 shares of Common Stock. In addition, Mr. Levitt and Mr. Masrani have each received the following awards in connection with their respective roles as directors of the Issuer: (i) 3,894 restricted stock units, each of which represents a contingent right to receive one share of Common Stock, and (ii) options to purchase, in the aggregate, 10,336 shares of Common Stock (which options have vested and are exercisable with respect to 1,407 shares of Common Stock but not yet with respect to the remaining 8,929).

The shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned herein exclude the 50,893,695 shares of the Issuers Nonvoting Common Stock held by TD LIH following the consummation of the Repurchase and the 144 Sale.

(c). Except as otherwise described in Item 4 of this Statement and the other transactions described in Schedule II attached hereto, which presents information as of August 1, 2022, none of the TD Entities nor, to the best of the TD Entities knowledge, any of the individuals named in Schedule I attached hereto, has engaged in any transaction in shares of Common Stock in the past 60 days.

(d) and (e). Not applicable.

 

Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 of the Original Statement is hereby amended and supplemented by the following:

Repurchase Agreement

The description of the Repurchase Agreement in the amended Item 4 hereof is incorporated herein by reference. Such description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Repurchase Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4 to this Statement and is incorporated herein by reference.

As of August 1, 2022, TD and such subsidiaries were short 1,655 shares of Common Stock in the aggregate.
