Explanatory Note

On June 15, 2012, LPL Financial Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) changed its corporate name from LPL Investment Holdings Inc. to LPL Financial Holdings Inc. and, among other things, amended and restated the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Bylaws to reflect the name change. As disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 19, 2012 (the “Initial Report”), except for the change in the Company’s name, there were no other changes to the Company’s bylaws.
