During 1998, we announced a program permitting us to repurchase a portion of our outstanding shares not to exceed a dollar maximum established by our Board of Directors. This program was most recently amended by the Board on October 5, 2021 to increase the repurchase authorization by $1.5 billion and again on December 14, 2021 to increase the repurchase authorization by an additional $1.5 billion. This brings the cumulative share repurchase authorization to $29.2 billion. All of the above repurchases were part of this program.
Subsequent to November 20, 2021 and through December 10, 2021, we have repurchased 63,909 shares of our common stock at an aggregate cost of $120.0 million.
