Diluted net income per common share attributable to Walmart is based on the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares adjusted for the dilutive effect of share-based awards.

The Company had approximately <font class="_mt">4</font> million, <font class="_mt">5</font> million and <font class="_mt">6</font> million stock options outstanding at January 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, which were not included in the diluted net income per common share calculation because their effect would be antidilutive. </font></p>
