In July 2006, our Board authorized a stock repurchase program
for up to $2.0 billion of our common stock within two years
from the date of authorization. The stock repurchase program was
announced in July 2006. Under this program, in 2006, we
repurchased approximately 54.5 million shares at an average
price of $30.56 per share. As of December 31, 2006,
$333 million remained available for further purchases under
this program. In January 2007, our Board authorized the
expansion of the stock repurchase program to provide for the
repurchase of up to an additional $2.0 billion of our
common stock by January 2009.
