| TradeStation
Group offers an excellent salary/benefits package
for full-time employees that recognizes talent,
rewards performance, and even makes your days
off a little more fun!
Employees
who regularly work a minimum of 30 hours per week
will be eligible to participate in TradeStation
Group's comprehensive Group Insurance Benefit
Programs effective the first day of the month
following thirty (30) days of employment.

The plan is designed primarily to provide
protection from the serious financial burden of
illness or injury. This benefit pays for a substantial
part of the health care services you and your
family may need. The plan provides two options;
an Open Access HMO plan and a Point of Service
("POS") plan. TradeStation Group pays 100% of
the premium cost for employee coverage under the
HMO Plan. You may add medical coverage for your
eligible spouse and child(ren) up to age 19, or
age 25 if a full-time college student. Dependent
and POS coverage are available for an additional
cost.

The
Dental Plan is a voluntary employee benefit that
pays for a substantial part of major dental treatment
and regular, preventive dental care services.
It provides you with two options: A Dental Managed
plan and a Preferred Provider plan.

The Vision Care plan offers you and your family
a benefit option that covers all routine eye care,
including in-depth eye exams, eyeglasses and contact
lenses.

This is a voluntary plan where you will increase
your take-home pay by lowering your taxes. The
plan allows you to pay your portion of the employee
group medical and dental costs with pre-tax dollars.
You will not pay Federal or Social Security taxes
(FICA) on your pre-tax contributions. This may
reduce your future Social Security benefits, although
any reduction should be minimal in comparison
to your tax savings. You will also be able to
pay for other expenses with dollars that will
never be taxed: unreimbursed medical expenses
up to a maximum of $2,400 per plan year; employment
related dependent daycare up to $5,000 per plan
year; and premiums for certain private health
insurance policies that you own. You will be eligible
to contribute to a flexible spending account for
these items after six months of employment.

This plan is designed to protect your survivors.
TradeStation Group provides the life insurance
and AD&D insurance benefits at no cost to you.
The life insurance benefit amount that the beneficiary
may receive is one times the insured's (employee's)
annual base salary up to a maximum of $200,000
and an equal amount of coverage for AD&D.

You will be able
to purchase optional life insurance coverage for
yourself and your eligible dependents at group
insurance rates. This coverage is in addition
to the basic life insurance that the company provides.
The optional life insurance coverage may be purchased
in units of $10,000 not to exceed the lower of
$500,000 and 5 times your annual base salary.
A spouse is eligible for 50% and dependent child(ren)
are eligible for 10% of your amount of coverage.
This voluntary plan allows
employees and employee family members to benefit
from Accident Expense Insurance managed by Allstate
Financial. This optional insurance pays cash benefits
to you and your family in case of an accident
(occurring on or off the job.)
This voluntary plan pays
up to $2,500 on diagnosis in addition to lifetime
financial protection for employees and employee
family members.
This plan allows employees
to benefit from low-cost legal services from a
leading provider of prepaid legal plans in North
America. The benefits provided are both voluntary
and completely confidential.

This voluntary plan will provide income to you
equal to 60% of your current weekly salary to
a maximum of $1,000 per week if you suffer from
a disabling accident or illness that is not work-related.
Benefit payments will begin after you have been
unable to work for 15 days and will continue for
up to 11 weeks while you are disabled.

This voluntary plan will provide income to you
equal to 60% of your current monthly salary to
a maximum of $6,000 per month if you suffer from
a disabling accident or illness on or off the
job. Benefit payments will begin after you have

to receive payments to age 65.

The EAP is a professional, confidential counseling
program for you and your family should you need
help in resolving personal problems, whether marital,
financial, legal or other. You and any family
member living in the same household are eligible
for three counseling sessions per year at no cost.

It's never too early to plan for retirement. The
TradeStation Group Employee Savings Retirement
Program, established under section 401(k) of the
Internal Revenue Code, was designed to make it
easier for you to take the first step towards
saving today for tomorrow's needs. You are eligible
to participate in the TradeStation Group 401(k)
Savings Plan following completion of three months
of employment if you regularly work a minimum
of 1,000 hours annually. The enrollment occurs
quarterly, every January 1, April 1, July 1 and
October 1. You may elect to defer between 1% and
60% of your pre-tax dollars. Participants older
than 50 may do a catch-up contribution. Contributions
are subject to annual dollar limits set by the
IRS. The company may add to your savings a discretionary
matching contribution. Any company matching contribution
will vest in 20% increments over a five-year period,
which means in 5 years you will be 100% vested
for any matching contribution made today. Employee
contributions are 100% vested at all times. You will automatically become 100% vested in your Account balance upon meeting the retirement requirements. You may take an early retirement distribution at or after age 55 and after you complete 4 years of service, but you must first terminate your employment with your Employer or Related Employer.

TradeStation Group is a publicly-traded company (Nasdaq: TRAD) and, every six months, you can purchase up to a maximum of 500 shares of the company's common stock. The purchase price will be 85% of the Fair Market Value on the Purchase Date, i.e., the last trading day of the Offering Period (rounded up to the nearest one ($0.01) cent).

Annual stock option grants will normally be given
near the end of each year or the beginning of
the following year. Currently, all full-time employees
(once they are with the company six months) are
eligible for annual stock option awards. Performance
results and base salary determine the number of
annual stock options employees are eligible to
receive. In the event an eligible employee has
not been employed the full year, but has a minimum
of 6 months of service, the annual stock option
award is prorated.

Full-time employees with six (6) months of continuous
service are eligible for vacation leave based
on the length of service. Vacation is earned on
a monthly basis commencing on the date of employment
and is credited on the last pay period of each
month. Part-time employees regularly scheduled
for a minimum of twenty (20) hours weekly will
receive vacation proportionate to their scheduled
hours of work.

Holiday Schedule includes nine (9) paid holidays
as follows: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King
Jr. Day, Washington's Birthday, Good Friday, Memorial
Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving
Day, and Christmas Day. All full-time employees
are eligible for holiday pay.

Full-time employees with three (3) months of continuous
service are eligible for five (5) sick days and
three (3) personal days per year. These days may
not be carried over to the following year, and any unused time will be forfeited.

To reward you for your hard work and to provide
a social gathering for all employees and their
families, it is TradeStation Group's practice
to sponsor an annual family picnic, holiday party,
and other events.
