ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED
SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
During January 2020 and 2019, our Board of Directors authorized share repurchase programs for up to $4 billion ($2 billion for each authorization) of our outstanding common stock. In response to the risks the COVID-19
pandemic presents to our business, during March 2020, we announced the suspension of our share repurchase programs and expect to evaluate the resumption of the programs at a future date. There were no share repurchases of our outstanding common stock during the third quarter of 2020. At September 30, 2020, we had $2.800 billion of repurchase authorization available under the January 2019 and 2020 authorizations.
In response to the COVID-19
pandemic concerns, the Company suspended its quarterly dividend program for the second and third quarters of 2020. The Company expects to evaluate resumption of the program at a future date. Any other future declarations of quarterly dividends and the establishment of future record and payment dates are subject to the final determination of our Board of Directors. Our ability to declare future dividends may also from time to time be limited by the terms of our debt agreements.
