The shares are purchased at the same weighted-average market price that we pay for share repurchases in the open market. The purchase agreements may be

Share Repurchase Program

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2007 there were no share repurchases. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2007, we repurchased 11 million shares for approximately $200 million. In August 2007, we announced that our board of directors had authorized an additional $1.5 billion for our ongoing share repurchase program. In connection with this authorization, we entered into purchase agreements with individual members of the Fisher family whose ownership represented approximately 17 percent of the Company’s outstanding shares at the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2007. Multiple Fisher family members and controlled entities owned approximately 34 percent of our outstanding shares at the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2007. We expect that approximately $250 million (approximately 17 percent) of the $1.5 billion share repurchase program will be purchased from Fisher family members under the agreements. The shares will be purchased each month at the same weighted average market price that we are paying for share repurchases in the open market. The purchase agreements may be terminated upon 15 business days notice by the Company or individual Fisher family members. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2007, we repurchased 48 million shares for approximately $887 million, of which eight million shares were repurchased for $147 million from the Fisher family.
