For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, we repurchased a total of 38.7, 12.4 and
10.9 million shares of class A and class B common stock for $2.669 billion, $809 million and $569 million,
respectively. In January 2008, our Board of Directors authorized an increase in our share repurchase authority to
$10.0 billion. Unless terminated earlier by the resolution of our Board, the program will expire when we have
purchased all shares authorized for repurchase under the program. As of December 31, 2011, we had $2.525
billion of our share repurchase authorization remaining.
In order to lower the average cost of acquiring shares in our ongoing share repurchase program, we
periodically enter into structured repurchase agreements involving the use of capped call options for the purchase
of UPS class B shares. We pay a fixed sum of cash upon execution of each agreement in exchange for the right to
receive either a pre-determined amount of cash or stock. Upon expiration of each agreement, if the closing
market price of our common stock is above the pre-determined price, we will have our initial investment returned
with a premium in either cash or shares (at our election). If the closing market price of our common stock is at or
below the pre-determined price, we will receive the number of shares specified in the agreement. As of
