During the first two quarters of 2008, significant uses of cash included share repurchases of $477 million, capital expenditures of $277 million and long-term debt repayments of $179 million. These amounts were partially offset by an $812 million increase in short-term borrowings, primarily through borrowing on our $4 billion credit facility as further detailed in the Financing Activities section below.

These amounts were partially offset by a $646 million increase in short-term borrowings, as further detailed in the Financing Activities section below.

SEARS HOLDINGS CORPORATION 13 and 39 Weeks Ended November 3, 2007 and October 28, 2006
We had cash and cash equivalents of $1.5 billion at November 3, 2007 as compared to $2.1 billion at October 28, 2006 and $4.0 billion at February 3, 2007. The decline in domestic cash and cash equivalents from February 3, 2007 primarily reflects share repurchases made pursuant to our share repurchase program, as further discussed in the Financing Activities below. During the first nine months of fiscal 2007, we repurchased 16.4 million common shares at a cost of $2.4 billion. Other significant uses of cash and cash equivalents for the nine months ended November 3, 2007 included the use of cash and cash equivalents in the seasonal build up of merchandise inventories in advance of the holiday selling season (approximately $0.9 billion, net of increased merchandise payables) and to fund capital expenditures (approximately $0.4 billion). These usages of cash and cash equivalents were primarily funded by operating cash inflows and an approximate $0.4 billion increase in borrowings, net of repayments, as further detailed in the financing activities section. At various times, we have posted cash collateral for certain outstanding letters of credit and self-insurance programs. Such cash collateral is classified within cash and cash equivalents given its ready availability to us as we have the ability to substitute letters of credit at any time for this cash collateral.

The decline in domestic cash and cash equivalents from February 3, 2007 primarily reflects share repurchases made pursuant to our share repurchase program as further discussed in the Financing Activities below. During the second quarter, we repurchased approximately 9.6 million common shares at a cost of $1.5 billion, of which 8.2 million shares were settled for $1.3 billion. A $0.2 billion payment in settlement of the 1.4 million remaining repurchased shares was made in the third quarter of fiscal 2007. Additionally, we spent $274 million on capital expenditures and made debt repayments of $304 million, net of new borrowings, during the first half of fiscal 2007. We have posted cash collateral for certain outstanding letters of credit and self-insurance programs.
