Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Amendment to a Material Definitive Agreement.
 

On June 6, 2012, the Registrant, IBG Holdings LLC (“Holdings”) and IBG LLC amended (the “Amendment”) the Exchange Agreement among those parties dated May 3, 2007 (the “Exchange Agreement”).

Under the Exchange Agreement, on an annual basis, each holder of a membership interest in Holdings may request that a portion of its interest be redeemed by Holdings. The Exchange Agreement provides, as a primary method of redemption, that the Registrant use commercially reasonable efforts to sell common stock of the Registrant to the public and use the gross proceeds from such sales, less expenses, to acquire IBG LLC membership interests from Holdings. The Exchange Agreement also provided, prior to the Amendment, that with the Registrant’s agreement, cash redemptions of such membership interests could be effected in lieu of using the public offering method. The Amendment eliminated the provisions in the Exchange Agreement regarding the cash redemption method for funding redemptions. The foregoing summary of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
