Introductory Note:  This Amendment No. 8 to the Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) filed by IBG Holdings LLC (“IBG Holdings”) and Thomas Peterffy (together with IBG Holdings, the “Reporting Persons”) relates to the acquisition and distribution of 3,271,390 shares of Class A Common Stock of Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. (the “Company”) by the Reporting Persons on August 1, 2022. This Amendment amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on May 17, 2007, which has been previously amended on November 18, 2013, October 24, 2014, July 24, 2015, July 28, 2016, July 28, 2017, July 27, 2018 and October 30, 2020 (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 316,609,102 IBG LLC membership interests, and, as a result, the Class B Common Stock held by IBG Holdings represents approximately 75.5% of the voting power of the Company. Mr. Thomas Peterffy, through his revocable trust’s indirect 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 75.5% of the voting power of the Company.

The following paragraph is hereby added to Item 1:

On August 1, 2022, 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, as amended by that certain amendment previously filed as exhibit 10.1 to the Form 8-K filed on June 12, 2012 and as further amended by that certain amendment filed as an exhibit 10.1 to the Form 10-Q on November 9, 2015, IBG Holdings acquired 3,271,390 shares of Class A Common Stock from the Company in exchange for 3,271,390 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 3,271,390 shares of Class A Common Stock represent approximately 3.2% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and approximately 0.8% of the voting power of the Company. IBG Holdings, immediately after receipt, distributed such shares in-kind to certain of its members in partial redemption of their IBG Holdings shares.

•	Thomas Peterffy, Chairman and Founder (1,000,000) – indirect through his revocable trust

See discussion below under Item 6 for additional information.

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 316,609,102 IBG LLC membership interests, and, as a result, the Class B Common Stock held by IBG Holdings represents approximately 75.5% 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 pursuant to the Exchange Agreement. Mr. Thomas Peterffy, through his revocable trust’s 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 75.5% of the voting power of the Company.

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

On August 1, 2022, IBG Holdings acquired 3,271,390 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 3,271,390 membership interests owned by IBG Holdings in IBG LLC and represent approximately 0.8% of the voting power of the Company. These shares of Class A Common Stock were immediately distributed in-kind to certain of IBG Holdings members that elected to redeem shares. The redeeming members included the following executive officers and directors (number of shares of Class A Common Stock in parentheses):

•	Thomas Peterffy, Chairman and Founder (1,000,000) – indirect through his revocable trust

IBG Holdings holds approximately 75.5% of the voting power of the Company. Mr. Thomas Peterffy, through his revocable trust’s ownership of the voting membership interests in IBG Holdings, his personal ownership, and shares held through a private foundation established by Mr. Peterffy, holds in the aggregate approximately 76.1% of the total voting power of the Company.

The following paragraph is hereby added to Item 6:

Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans

On July 29, 2022, Mr. Thomas Peterffy adopted a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan (the “TP Plan”) to sell the 1,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock received in partial redemption of his interest in IBG Holdings and personally owned shares, as described elsewhere in this form. Pursuant to the TP Plan, Mr. Peterffy will sell up to 20,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock per trading day at prevailing market prices, subject to the terms of the TP Plan and the limits contained in SEC Rule 144. The transactions will occur until the earlier of the date on which all shares are sold, January 28, 2023 or the TP Plan is terminated in accordance with its terms and applicable law. All transactions under the plans will be disclosed publicly in accordance with applicable securities laws, rules and regulations through appropriate filings with the SEC, as applicable.
