                           DATEK ONLINE HOLDINGS CORP.
                            2001 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

                      NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

                                 FOR EXECUTIVES

         THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into as of March 1, 2003 (the "Grant
Date") by and between Ameritrade Holding Corporation (the "Company") and Joseph
H. Moglia (the "Executive");

                                WITNESSETH THAT:

         WHEREAS, the Company maintains the Datek Online Holdings Corp. 2001
Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"); and

         WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive are parties to an Amended and
Restated Employment Agreement dated as of March 1, 2001, as amended from time to
time (the "Employment Agreement"), which provides for a grant of an option to
the Executive as of March 1, 2003; and

         WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive have agreed that the grant of
the option required under the terms of the Employment Agreement will be made
under the Plan and the Committee (as defined in the Plan) has approved such
grant;

         NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and the Executive hereby agree as follows;

1.       Grant: Option Price. This Agreement evidences the grant to the
         Executive, pursuant to the terms of the Plan, of an option (the
         "Option") to purchase a total of 8,199,813 Shares. The Exercise Price
         of each Share subject to the Option shall be $5.05. The Option is not
         intended to be, and will not be treated as an "incentive stock option"
         as that term is used in section 422 of the Code.

2.       Vesting. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the
         Option shall become vested and exercisable with respect to 1/731 of the
         Shares awarded under this Agreement each day beginning with the Grant
         Date until such time as the Option is fully exercisable; provided,
         however, that no portion of the Option shall vest or become exercisable
         after the date on which the Executive's employment with the Company
         terminates for any reason except to the extent provided in Section 4 of
         the Employment Agreement. In the event that Section 4 of the Employment
         Agreement provides for accelerated vesting of the Option in the event
         of certain events, the provisions of Section 4 of the Employment
         Agreement shall control and shall be given full force and effect. The
         provisions of the Employment Agreement relating to the vesting of the
         Option are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement and
         form a part of this Agreement.

<PAGE>

3.       Exercise. After the Option becomes vested or exercisable pursuant to
         paragraph 2 and prior to the Expiration Date (defined below), the
         Option, to the extent then vested or exercisable, may be exercised in
         whole or in part by filing a written notice with the Secretary of the
         Company at its corporate headquarters. The exercise notice must be
         filed prior to the Expiration Date, must specify the number of Shares
         which the Executive elects to purchase and must be accompanied by
         payment of the Option Price (including any applicable withholding
         taxes) for such Shares indicated by the Executive's election. Payment
         of the Option Price (and any applicable withholding taxes) shall be by
         cash or check payable to the Company, by delivery of Shares having an
         aggregate Fair Market Value (valued as of the date of exercise) that is
         equal to the Option Price for the Shares, or any combination thereof.
         The Executive may pay the Option Price by authorizing Ameritrade
         Clearing, Inc. (or such other suitable party designated by the Company)
         to sell Shares (or a sufficient portion of the Shares) acquired upon
         exercise of the Option and remit to the Company a sufficient portion of
         the sale proceeds to pay the entire Option Price and any tax
         withholding resulting from such exercise.

4.       Expiration of Option. The "Expiration Date" for this Option shall be
         the ten-year anniversary of the date on which the Option is granted.
         For purposes of the Plan, there shall be no definition of "Cause" which
         shall be applied so as to cause the provisions of Section 6(b) of the
         Plan to apply to the Option. The provisions of the Employment Agreement
         shall apply for purposes of determining the expiration of the Option in
         the event the Executive's employment with the Company terminates for
         Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement).

5.       Restriction on Sale of Shares. The Executive's right to sell any Shares
         acquired by exercise of this Option shall be subject to the terms,
         conditions and restrictions of the Company's equity ownership and
         disposition guidelines.

6.       Change in Control Provisions. The provisions of the Plan regarding the
         effect of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) shall not apply
         to the Option. To the extent applicable, the provisions of the
         Employment Agreement relating to the effect of a Change in Control (as
         defined in the Employment Agreement) shall apply to the Option.

7.       Nontransferability. The Option shall not be transferable except by will
         or the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during
         the Executive's lifetime only by the Executive.

8.       Administration. The authority to manage and control the operation and
         administration of this Agreement shall be vested in the Committee and
         the Committee shall have all of the powers with respect to this
         Agreement that it has with respect to the Plan. Any interpretation of
         the Agreement by the Committee and any decision made by it with respect
         to the Agreement is final and binding on all persons. In the event of
         any conflicting terms between this Agreement and the Employment
         Agreement, the Employment Agreement shall govern.
<PAGE>

9.       Plan Governs. The terms of this Agreement shall be subject to the terms
         of the Employment Agreement and the terms of the Plan, a copy of which
         may be obtained by the Executive from the office of the Secretary of
         the Company.

10.      Successors. The Agreement hereto shall be binding upon and shall inure
         to the benefit of any assignee or successor in the interest of the
         Company, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefits of any
         estate, legal representative, beneficiary or heir of the Executive.

11.      Employee and Shareholder Status. This Agreement does not constitute a
         contract of employment or continued service and does not give the
         Executive the right to be retained as an employee of the Company. This
         Agreement does not confer upon the Executive or any holder thereof any
         right as a shareholder of the Company prior to the issuance of Shares
         pursuant to the exercise of the Option.

12.      Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by written agreement of the
         Executive and the Company, subject to the consent of the Committee,
         without the consent of any other person. No amendment to the Employment
         Agreement after the Grant Date shall be given effect with respect to
         the Option unless the amendment specifically provides otherwise.

13.      Defined Terms. Unless the context clearly implies or indicates the
         contrary, a word, term or phrase used or defined in the Employment
         Agreement, or the Plan, as applicable, is similarly used or defined for
         purposes of this Agreement.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Executive has hereunto set his or her hand and
the Company has caused these presents to be executed in its name and on its
behalf, all as of the date first above written and the Executive hereby
acknowledges that the terms and conditions of the Agreement thereto have been
read and understood.

EXHIBIT 10.11

                                  AMENDMENT TO
                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         WHEREAS, Ameritrade Holding Corporation (the "Company") and J. Joe
Ricketts (the "Employee") have heretofore entered into an Employment Agreement
(the "Agreement"), initially effective as of October 1, 2001;

         WHEREAS, the Company and the Employee desire to further amend the
Agreement in certain respects;

         NOW, THEREFORE, the Agreement is amended as follows, all effective as
of the date of execution of this Amendment:

         1. By substituting the following for paragraph 2(B)(iii)(a) of the
Agreement:

         "(a) to timely make the payments (annual base salary, annual cash bonus
(in the annual amount of the higher of the fiscal year 2002 or fiscal year 2003
annual cash bonus payable to the Employee), annual stock option award (in the
amount of options to purchase 390,000 shares of the Company's common stock),
insurance benefits, employee assistance program payments and tax payments)
called for by Section 5 of this Agreement through the end of the stated Term
(without giving effect to any early termination of this Agreement), without
set-off, off-set or deduction (other than customary federal, state and city
withholding taxes, as applicable), and"

         2. By substituting the following for Section 2(B)(iv) of the Agreement:

                  "(iv) In calculating the accrued cash bonus or accrued stock
         option award payable to the Employee under this Agreement for any
         partial fiscal year, (a) the calculation of the accrued cash bonus
         shall be based upon the annual cash bonus payable to the Employee for
         the higher of fiscal year 2002 or fiscal year 2003, and (b) the accrued
         annual stock option award shall be based upon options to purchase
         390,000 shares of the Company's common stock."

         3. By deleting the last paragraph of Section 5(B) of the Agreement and
adding the following:

         "The Employee and the Company agree that (a) the Employee shall be
entitled to receive the grant of a stock option award for fiscal year 2003 with
respect to 750,000 shares of common stock of the Company and (b) such amount
satisfies the number of options required to be granted to the Employee under
this Section 5(B) for fiscal year 2003. The Company agrees to grant such options
on the date hereof at an exercise price equal to 100% of the fair market value
of a share of the Company's common stock on the date hereof (as determined in
accordance with the Ameritrade Holding Corporation 1996 Long-Term Incentive
Plan), which grant will be evidenced by the annexed Stock Option Agreement.

         Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5(B) to the contrary, the
Employee shall not be entitled to an annual stock option award for fiscal years
of the Term subsequent to fiscal year

<PAGE>

2003 until the Company reinstates the Company's annual stock option award
program which existed on October 1, 2001 (the "Old Program") or implements a
"New Program" (except that for purposes of Section 2(B)(iii)(a) only, it shall
be deemed that this Section 5(B) calls for the Employee to receive annual stock
options to purchase 390,000 shares of the Company's common stock). For purposes
of this Agreement, a "New Program" shall collectively mean one or more plans,
programs or arrangements (formal or informal), including individual grants,
which provides after September 26, 2003 equity-based incentive compensation to
least one of the other executive officers of the Company (the "Executive
Management Team"). A one-time special grant upon and as a result of a person
first becoming a member of the Executive Management Team shall be disregarded
for purposes of the preceding sentence. The Employee shall be entitled to
participate in the Old Program and/or the New Program, as applicable, subject to
the reasonable terms of the applicable program (which terms may not
discriminate, directly or indirectly, against Employee) and the terms of this
Agreement.

         For fiscal years of the Term subsequent to fiscal year 2003, the
Company shall have the sole and exclusive discretion to determine the annual
cash bonus and annual stock option award (or any New Program award) targets and
target levels for the Employee; provided, however, that in determining the
Employee's annual cash bonus and annual stock option award (or any New Program
award), the Employee shall in all respects be treated reasonably, and equitably
and comparably to the other members of the Executive Management Team."

         4. Each of the Company and Employee acknowledges and agrees (and agrees
not to claim to the contrary) that (a) neither this Amendment nor the signing of
the stock option agreements by each party in connection with the stock option
awards granted or to be granted to the Employee for fiscal years 2001, 2002 and
2003 shall be deemed a waiver by either party of any of its or his rights under
the Agreement with respect to the stock option awards granted or to be granted
to the Employee for fiscal years 2001, 2002 and 2003, and (b) except as
specifically provided in this Amendment, the terms and conditions of the
Agreement, including the Employee's rights thereunder, shall continue in full
force and effect.

         5. For the avoidance of doubt, if, with respect to any termination of
the Agreement pursuant to Section 2(B)(iii) or 2(C) thereof, the Committee (as
defined in the Ameritrade Holding Corporation 1996 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the
"LTIP")) and/or the Company determines not to permit any stock options granted
now or hereafter to Employee to (a) continue vesting after the date of such
termination, or (b) remain exercisable after the date of such termination, in
either case to the extent such options would have continued to vest or remain
exercisable, as applicable, in accordance with their terms (without regard to
any provision under any applicable agreement entitling the Company and/or the
Committee to determine whether any such continued vesting or exercisability
after the two-year anniversary of such termination date is required by Section
2(B)(iii) or 2(C) of the Agreement, as applicable) but for termination of the
Agreement pursuant to Section 2(B)(iii) or 2(C) thereof, as applicable, then in
each such case the Employee shall be entitled to losses and damages, if any, in
accordance with Section 2(B)(iii) or Section 2(C) of the Agreement, as
applicable.

<PAGE>

         6. For the avoidance of doubt, without the prior written consent of
Employee, the Company may not amend any existing option agreement entered into
by and between the Company and Employee prior to or on the date of this
Amendment, including without limitation the annexed Stock Option Agreement.
Further, any option agreement (or New Program award agreement) entered into by
and between the Company and Employee after the date of this Amendment shall
effectively provide that any amendment thereto shall not be effective without
Employee's prior written consent. Any amendment to any option agreement shall
also be subject to the consent of the Committee (as defined in the LTIP or any
New Program, as applicable).

<PAGE>

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Amendment on
this 5th day of August, 2004.
