ITEM 2.

UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

AND USE OF PROCEEDS

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 totaling $4.9

billion, authorized by our Board of Directors, to the repurchase program

provide for a total

of $5.5 billion (including $500 million authorized on July 31, 2024) of shares of

our common stock to be

repurchased under this program.

As of September 28, 2024, we had repurchased approximately $5.1 billion

of common stock (94,763,315 shares)

under these initiatives, with $455 million available for future common

stock share repurchases.

The following table summarizes repurchases of our common stock

under our stock repurchase program during the

fiscal quarter ended September 28, 2024:
