On September 13, 2001, we announced that our Board of Directors had authorized a stock repurchase program.
As of July 28, 2012, our Board of Directors had authorized the repurchase of up to $82 billion of common stock
under this program. During fiscal 2012, we repurchased and retired 262 million shares of our common stock at an
average price of $16.64 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $4.4 billion. As of July 28, 2012, we had
repurchased and retired 3.7 billion shares of our common stock at an average price of $20.36 per share for an
aggregate purchase price of $76.1 billion since inception of the stock repurchase program, and the remaining
authorized amount for stock repurchases under this program was $5.9 billion with no termination date.
For the majority of restricted stock units granted, the number of shares issued on the date the restricted stock
units vest is net of the effect of the minimum statutory tax withholding requirements with the appropriate taxing
authorities. Although these withheld shares are not issued or considered common stock repurchases under our
stock repurchase program and therefore are not included in the preceding table, they are treated as common stock
repurchases in our financial statements as they reduce the number of shares that would have been issued upon
vesting (see Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
