Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer

Our share repurchase program, announced on March 3, 2003, originally

allowed us to repurchase up to two million

shares pre-stock splits (eight million shares post-stock splits) of our common

stock, which represented

approximately 2.3% of the shares outstanding at the commencement

of the program.

Subsequent additional

increases since 2003 that have aggregated to an additional $6.7 billion,

authorized by our Board, to the repurchase

program provide for a total of $6.8 billion (including $500 million authorized

on January 27, 2025 and an

additional $750 million authorized on September 8, 2025) of shares of our common

stock to be repurchased under

this program, with $780 million currently available for future share repurchases.

On May 19, 2025, we executed an accelerated share repurchase program

to repurchase a total of $250 million of

our outstanding common stock based on volume-weighted average

prices.

In May 2025 we received 3,122,832

shares at an estimated fair value of $224 million.

In July 2025, we received an additional 368,651 shares at an

estimated fair value of $26 million, representing the final amount of shares

to be received under this accelerated

share repurchase program.

As of December 27, 2025, we had repurchased approximately $6.0

billion of common stock (107,876,628) shares

under these initiatives,

with $780 million available for future common stock share repurchases.

The following table summarizes repurchases of our common stock
