Repurchases
Devons Board of Directors has approved an ongoing, annual
stock repurchase program to minimize dilution resulting from
restricted stock issued to, and options exercised by, employees.
Also, Devons Board of Directors approved a program in 2007
to repurchase up to 50 million shares. This program expires
on December 31, 2009 and was created as a potential use of
the proceeds received from Devons West African property
divestitures. Devons Board of Directors also approved a
separate 50 million share repurchase program in August
2005, which expired on December 31, 2007.
In response to the current economic environment and recent
downturn in commodity prices, Devon has indefinitely suspended
activity under its authorized programs. As a result, Devon does
not anticipate repurchasing shares under these programs in the
foreseeable future. Should economic conditions or commodity
prices strengthen, Devon will consider resumption of share
repurchases under its authorized programs.
During the three-year period ended December 31, 2008, Devon
repurchased 14.8 million shares at a total cost of
$1.2 billion, or $83.98 per share, under these repurchase
programs. The following table summarizes Devons
repurchases under these plans during 2008, 2007 and 2006
(amounts and shares in millions).

Repurchases
On September 27, 2004, Devon announced a stock repurchase
program to repurchase up to 50 million shares of its common
stock. During 2004, Devon repurchased five million shares at a
total cost of $189 million, or $37.78 per share. This
program was completed in 2005, during which Devon repurchased
44.6 million shares at a total cost of $2.1 billion,
or $47.69 per share. The total cost of this program was
$2.3 billion, or $46.69 per share.
On August 3, 2005, Devon announced another program to
repurchase up to 50 million shares of its common. During
2005, Devon repurchased 2.2 million shares at a cost of
$134 million, or $60.16 per share, under this program.
During 2006, Devon repurchased 4.3 million shares at a cost
of $253 million, or $59.61 per share, under this program.
As of February 1, 2007, Devon has repurchased
6.5 million shares under this program for
$387 million, or $59.80 per share. This program was
suspended in 2006 as a result of the Chief acquisition (see
Note 3). In conjunction with the sales of Egypt and West
Africa (see Note 13), Devon expects to resume this
repurchase program in late 2007 by using a portion of the sale
proceeds to repurchase common stock. Although this program
expires at the end of 2007, it could be extended if necessary.
