TD Ameritrade Holding Corp. (AMTD) shareholders, on an advisory basis, approved compensation for executives of the online brokerage including Chief Executive Fred Tomczyk.

At the company's annual stockholders meeting in Omaha, Neb., a majority of its shareholders voted in favor of the proposal, commonly referred to as a say-on-pay measure.

Additionally, shareholders ratified the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as TD Ameritrade's independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2012.
