Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On March 14, 2011, LPL Investment Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) committed to a corporate restructuring plan to enhance its service offering while generating efficiencies for the Company.  The restructuring plan consolidates the operations of UVEST Financial Services Group, Inc. (“UVEST”) with those of LPL Financial LLC (“LPL Financial”). In connection with the consolidation, certain registered representatives currently associated with UVEST will move to LPL Financial through a transfer of their licenses.  The transfers are expected be completed in stages, with the first stage commencing in June 2011, and the final stage to be completed by December 2011.  Following the transfer of registered representatives and client accounts to LPL Financial, all registered representatives and client accounts that transferred shall then be associated with LPL Financial, a clearing broker/dealer. In addition, UVEST will terminate its clearing relationship with Pershing LLC.

The Company anticipates recording pre-tax charges of $52.6 million over the course of this restructuring plan, including a non-cash impairment charge of $5.6 million. These charges are comprised of $7 million of advisor retention and related benefits, $11.4 million of contract termination fees, $9.8 million in technology costs, and $18.8 million in other expenditures principally relating to the conversion and transfer of registered representatives and client accounts from UVEST to LPL Financial.

These restructuring activities are expected to be completed by the end of 2011.  The Company expects this restructuring will improve pre-tax profitability by approximately $10 million to $12 million per year beginning in 2012 by creating operational efficiencies and revenue opportunities.

A copy of the Company’s press release announcing the restructuring activities described above is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
