(c)The following table provides information about our purchases of equity securities that are registered by us pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, during the three months ended September 30, 2022:

(1)On January 11, 2022, we entered into separate accelerated stock repurchase agreements, the January 2022 ASR Agreements, with Mizuho Markets Americas LLC, or Mizuho, and Wells Fargo Bank, or Wells Fargo, to repurchase $1 billion of our common stock as part of the $3 billion repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors on February 18, 2021. On January 12, 2022, in accordance with the January 2022 ASR Agreements, we made a payment of $1 billion ($500 million to Mizuho and $500 million to Wells Fargo) and received an initial delivery of 2.2 million shares of our common stock (1.08 million shares each from Mizuho and Wells Fargo). In January 2022, we recorded the payments to Mizuho and Wells Fargo as a reduction to stockholders’ equity, consisting of an $850 million increase in treasury stock, which reflects the value of the initial 2.2 million shares received upon initial settlement, and a $150 million decrease in capital in excess of par value, which reflects the value of stock held back by Mizuho and Wells Fargo pending final settlement of the January 2022 ASR Agreements. Upon final settlement of the January 2022 ASR Agreements with Mizuho and Wells Fargo on March 29, 2022 and March 30, 2022, respectively, we received an additional 0.1 million shares and 0.1 million shares, respectively, as determined by the average daily volume weighted-averages share price of our common stock during the term of the agreement, less a discount, of $410.96 and $411.66, respectively, bringing the total shares received under the January 2022 ASR Agreements to 2.4 million. In addition, upon settlement we reclassified the $150 million value of stock initially held back by Mizuho and Wells Fargo from capital in excess of par value to treasury stock. Our remaining repurchase authorization was $2 billion as of November 1, 2022.
