(1) Average Price Paid Per Share excludes cash paid for commissions.

(2) On July 26, 2018, we announced a stock repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to $30.0 billion of our common stock. On October 12, 2021, we announced a new $10.0 billion stock repurchase program. This was in addition to the then remaining repurchase authority of $0.9 billion under the previous program. The stock repurchase programs have no expiration date. During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we utilized the remaining repurchase authority under the previous program and began repurchases under the new program. Shares withheld to satisfy statutory tax withholding requirements related to the vesting of share-based awards are not issued or considered stock repurchases under our stock repurchase program and, therefore, are excluded from the table above.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

In January 2021, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement) for the acquisition of NuVia, Inc. (NUVIA), which transaction closed in March 2021. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, we are obligated to issue shares of our common stock to three specific founders of NUVIA and certain affiliated entities of such founders from time to time upon the satisfaction of certain conditions specified in the Merger Agreement. During the quarter ended March 27, 2022, we issued an aggregate of 105,240 additional shares of our common stock to the three founders of NUVIA and their affiliates, each of whom had advised us that he or such entity was an accredited investor. These shares were issued in transactions not involving a public offering pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
