Common Stock Repurchase Programs
 
We have an ongoing, annual stock repurchase program to minimize dilution resulting from restricted stock issued to, and options exercised by, employees. In 2009, the repurchase program authorizes the repurchase of up to 4.8 million shares or a cost of $360 million, whichever amount is reached first.
 
In anticipation of the completion of our West African divestitures, our Board of Directors approved a separate program to repurchase up to 50 million shares. This program expires on December 31, 2009.
 
In response to the current economic environment and recent downturn in commodity prices, we have indefinitely suspended activity under both these programs. As a result, we do not anticipate repurchasing shares under these programs in the foreseeable future. Should economic conditions or commodity prices strengthen, we will consider resumption of share repurchases under our authorized programs.
