(the “Company”) by the Reporting Persons on October 24, 2014.  This Amendment amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on May 17, 2007 and as previously amended on November 18, 2013 (the “Schedule 13D”) with respect to the Class A Common Stock of the Company.  Except as specified in this Amendment, all previous Items are unchanged.  Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the same meanings herein as are ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 1.  Security and Issuer

 

The third paragraph of Item 1 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

 

Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Restated Charter”), IBG Holdings, as the sole holder of the 100 outstanding shares of the Class B Common Stock, is entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of IBG LLC membership interests held by it at any given time. As of the date of this statement, IBG Holdings holds 346,062,283 IBG LLC membership interests, and, as a result, the Class B Common Stock held by IBG Holdings represents approximately 85.5% of the voting power of the Company.  Mr. Thomas Peterffy, through his ownership of the voting membership interests in IBG Holdings, beneficially owns all of the outstanding shares of the Class B Common Stock, which represent approximately 85.5% of the voting power of the Company.

 

The following paragraph is hereby added to Item 1:

 

On October 24, 2014, consistent with the terms of that certain Exchange Agreement entered into by and among the Company, IBG Holdings and IBG LLC and the former members of IBG LLC, previously filed as exhibit 99.3 to this Schedule 13D on May 17, 2007 and as amended by that certain amendment previously filed as exhibit 99.1 to this Schedule 13D on November 18, 2013, IBG Holdings acquired 1,358,478 shares of Class A Common Stock from the Company in exchange for 1,358,478 membership interests owned by IBG Holdings in IBG LLC and certain tax benefit payments as described in the tax receivable agreement between IBG Holdings and the Company and previously filed as exhibit 10.3 to Form 10-Q on June 15, 2007 (the “TRA”).  Such 1,358,478 shares of Class A Common Stock represent approximately 2.3% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and approximately 0.3% of the voting power of the Company.  Mr. Thomas Peterffy, through his ownership of the voting membership interests in IBG Holdings, beneficially owns such 1,358,478 shares of Class A Common Stock, which represent approximately 0.3% of the voting power of the Company.

 

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 4 is hereby supplemented by adding the following paragraph:

 

On October 24, 2014, IBG Holdings acquired 1,358,478 shares of Class A Common Stock in exchange for 1,358,478 membership interests owned by IBG Holdings in IBG LLC and certain tax benefit payments as described in the TRA.  It is intended that the shares of Class A Common Stock acquired by IBG Holdings will be sold in open market transactions and the proceeds used to purchase the IBG Holdings’ membership interests (or portions thereof) of certain of IBG Holdings’ members who have elected to redeem their IBG Holdings membership interests (or portion thereof).  The shares to be sold will be sold in open market transactions pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, more fully described in “Item 6—Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to the Securities of the Issuer” of this report.

 

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

Paragraph (b) of Item 5 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

 

(b) Rows (7) through (10) of the cover pages to the Schedule 13D/A set forth (i) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock as to which there is sole power to vote or direct the vote or to dispose or direct the disposition and (ii) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock as to which there is shared power to vote or direct the vote or to dispose or direct the disposition.

described in the TRA.  There were no other transactions in the Class A Common Stock by the Reporting Persons during the last sixty days.

 

Paragraph (d) of Item 5 is hereby supplemented by adding the following paragraph:

 

Messrs. Paul J. Brody, Chief Financial Officer and Director of the Company, and Earl H. Nemser, Vice Chairman of the Board of the Company, are among the members of IBG Holdings who have elected to redeem a portion of their IBG Holdings membership interests in connection with the October 24, 2014 transaction and therefore have an interest in the proceeds of sale of 125,095 and 100,000 shares, respectively, of the Class A Common Stock to be sold pursuant to the 2014 Plan (defined in Item 6). Certain current and former employees of the Company and its subsidiaries also elected the redemption of a portion of their membership interests in IBG Holdings and therefore have an interest in the balance of the shares to be sold under the Plan. Neither Mr. Thomas Peterffy nor his affiliates have elected to redeem any of their IBG Holdings membership interests and therefore have no interest in the proceeds of sale of the shares of Class A Common Stock acquired by IBG Holdings on October 24, 2014.

 

Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

 

The first paragraph under subheading “Voting” of Item 6 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

 

Pursuant to the Restated Charter, IBG Holdings, as the sole holder of the 100 outstanding shares of the Class B Common Stock, is entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of IBG LLC membership interests held by it at any given time. Except as otherwise provided by law and the Restated Charter, the Company’s shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock vote together as a single class.  As of the date of this statement, IBG Holdings holds 346,062,283 IBG LLC membership interests, and, as a result, the Class B Common Stock held by IBG Holdings represents approximately 85.5% of the voting power of the Company.  Such percentage voting power is anticipated to decrease over time as a result of the exchange and redemption transactions described in the Exchange Agreement, which given the number of membership interests that have not been redeemed thereunder, may be extended.  Mr. Thomas Peterffy, through his ownership of the voting membership interests in IBG Holdings, beneficially owns all of the outstanding shares of the Class B Common Stock which represent approximately 85.5% of the voting power of the Company.

 

The following paragraphs are hereby added to Item 6 after the third paragraph under the subheading “Voting”:

 

On October 24 2014, IBG Holdings acquired 1,358,478 shares of Class A Common Stock for sale for the benefit of certain of its members who elected to redeem a portion of their IBG Holdings membership interests. The shares of Class A Common Stock were acquired in exchange for 1,358,478 membership interests owned by IBG Holdings in IBG LLC and represent approximately 0.3% of the voting power of the Company.  We anticipate a proportional reduction in the voting power of IBG Holdings as a result of these intended sales in open market transactions of such shares pursuant to the 2014 Plan. Mr. Thomas Peterffy, through his ownership of the voting membership interests in IBG Holdings, beneficially owns 1,358,478 shares of Class A Common Stock, which represent approximately 0.3% of the voting power of the Company.

 

In the aggregate, IBG Holdings holds approximately 85.9% of the voting power of the Company.  Mr. Thomas Peterffy, through his ownership of the voting membership interests in IBG Holdings, holds in the aggregate approximately 85.9% of the total voting power of the Company.

 

The following paragraph is hereby added to Item 6:

 

Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan

 

On October 29, 2014, IBG Holdings entered into a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan (the “2014 Plan”) providing for the sale of 1,358,478 shares of Class A Common Stock acquired by IBG Holdings on October 24, 2014 in open market transactions. Under the terms of the 2014 Plan, Holdings intends to sell the 1,358,478 shares of Class A common stock over time at prevailing market prices.  The sales will occur until the earlier of the date on which all shares are sold, October 27, 2015 or the plan is terminated in accordance with its terms and Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act and will be disclosed publicly in accordance with applicable securities laws, rules and regulations through appropriate filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as applicable. IBG Holdings and its members will have no control over the stock sales under the 2014 Plan.
