<p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 32px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2">Under our current three-year, $<font class="_mt">5.00</font> billion stock repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors (Board) in May 2010, we repurchased $<font class="_mt">3.57</font> billion of our common stock through March 31, 2011. As of March 31, 2011, the remaining authorized amount of stock repurchases that may be made under our current repurchase program was $<font class="_mt">1.43</font> billion. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, our total repurchase activity was $<font class="_mt">548.5</font> million which resulted in the repurchase and retirement of <font class="_mt">14.0</font> million shares of our common stock at an average purchase price of $<font class="_mt">39.12</font> per share. </font></p>
<p style="margin-top: 12px; text-indent: 32px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2">In January 2011, our Board authorized an additional three-year, $<font class="_mt">5.00</font> billion stock repurchase program which will commence upon the completion of our existing program authorized in May 2010. </font></p>
<p style="margin-top: 12px; text-indent: 32px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2">We use the par value method of accounting for our stock repurchases. Under the par value method, common stock is first charged with the par value of the shares involved. The excess of the cost of shares acquired over the par value is allocated to additional paid-in capital (APIC) based on an estimated average sales price per issued share with the excess amounts charged to retained earnings. As a result of our stock repurchases during the three months ended March 31, 2011, we reduced common stock and APIC by an aggregate of $<font class="_mt">42.4</font> million and charged $<font class="_mt">514.9</font> million to retained earnings. </font></p>
