Exhibit 10.13

AMENDED AND RESTATED 2004 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

1.Purpose

The
purpose of this Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") of Staples, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), is to advance the interests of the
Company's stockholders by enhancing the Company's ability to attract, retain and motivate persons who make (or are expected to make) important contributions to the Company by providing such persons
with equity ownership opportunities and performance-based incentives and thereby better aligning the interests of such persons with those of the Company's stockholders. Except where the context
otherwise requires, the term "Company" shall include any of the Company's present or future parent or subsidiary corporations as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, and any regulations promulgated thereunder (the "Code"), and any other business venture (including, without limitation, joint venture or limited liability company) in which
the Company has a controlling interest, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board").

2.Eligibility

All
of the Company's employees, officers, directors, consultants, advisors, and other service providers (including persons who have entered into an agreement with the Company under which
they will be employed by the Company in the future) are eligible to be granted options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights or other stock-based awards (each, an
"Award") under the Plan. Each person who has been granted an Award under the Plan shall be deemed a "Participant".

3.Administration and Delegation

(a)Administration by Board of Directors.The Plan will be administered by the Board. The Board shall have
authority to grant Awards and to adopt, amend and repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices relating to the Plan as it shall deem advisable. The Board may correct any defect, supply
any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award in the manner and to the extent it shall deem expedient to carry the Plan into effect and it shall be the sole and final judge of
such expediency. All decisions by the Board shall be made in the Board's sole discretion and shall be final and binding on all persons having or claiming any interest in the Plan or in any Award. No
director or person acting pursuant to the authority delegated by the Board shall be liable for any action or determination relating to or under the Plan made in good faith.

(b)Appointment of Committees.To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board may delegate any or all of
its powers under the Plan to one or more committees or subcommittees of the Board (a "Committee"). Unless otherwise determined by the Board, if a Committee is authorized to grant Awards to a Covered
Employee (as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code), such Committee shall be comprised solely of two or more "outside directors" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code. All
references in the Plan to the "Board" shall mean the Board or a Committee of the Board or the officers referred to in Section 3(c) to the extent that the Board's powers or authority under the
Plan have been delegated to such Committee or officers.

(c)Delegation to Officers.To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board may delegate to one or more
officers of the Company the power to grant Awards to employees or officers of the Company or any of its present or future subsidiary corporations and to exercise such other powers under the Plan as
the Board may determine, provided that the Board shall fix the terms of the Awards to be granted by such officers (including the exercise price of such Awards, which may include a formula by which the
exercise price will be determined) and the maximum number of shares subject to Awards that the officers may grant; provided further, however, that no officer shall be authorized to

grant
Awards to himself or herself or to any "executive officer" of the Company (as defined by Rule 3b-7 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"))
or to any "officer" of the Company (as defined by Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act).

4.Available for Awards

(a)Number of Shares.

Subject
to adjustment under Section 9, Awards may be made under the Plan for up to 62,330,000 shares of common stock, $.0006 par value per share, of the Company (the "Common
Stock"). For purposes of counting the number of shares available for the grant of Awards under the Plan, (i) shares of Common Stock covered by independent SARs shall be counted against the
number of shares available for the grant of Awards under the Plan; (ii) if any Award (A) expires or is terminated, surrendered or canceled without having been fully exercised or is
forfeited in whole or in part (including as the result of shares of Common Stock subject to such Award being repurchased by the Company at the original issuance price pursuant to a contractual
repurchase right) or (B) results in any Common Stock not being issued because the Award (other than a SAR) is settled for cash, the unused Common Stock covered by such Award (other than a SAR)
shall again be available for the grant of Awards under the Plan; provided, however, in the case of Incentive Stock Options (as hereinafter defined), the foregoing shall be subject to any limitations
under the Code; and (iii) shares of Common Stock tendered to the Company by a Participant to (A) purchase shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of an Award or (B) satisfy tax
withholding obligations (including shares retained from the Award creating the tax obligation) shall not be added back to the number of shares available for the future grant of Awards under the Plan.

In
addition, if any option or restricted stock award granted under the 1992 Plan expires, is terminated, surrendered or canceled without having been fully exercised, is forfeited in
whole or in part (including as the result of shares of Common Stock subject to such restricted stock award being repurchased by the Company at the original issuance price pursuant to a contractual
repurchase right), then in each such case the unused Common Stock covered by such option or restricted stock award shall be available for the grant of Awards under the Plan, subject, however, in the
case of Incentive Stock Options, to any limitations under the Code; and further provided that shares of Common Stock tendered to the Company to (A) purchase shares of Common Stock upon the
exercise of any such option or (B) satisfy tax withholding obligations (including shares retained from the option or restricted stock award creating the tax obligation) shall not be added back
to the number of shares available for the future grant of Awards under the Plan and that the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for grant of Awards pursuant to this sentence shall
not exceed 51,000,000. Shares issued under the Plan may consist in whole or in part of authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares.

(b)Sub-limits.Subject to adjustment under Section 9, the following sub-limits
on the number of shares of Common Stock subject to Awards shall apply:

5.Stock Options

(a)General.The Board may grant options to purchase Common Stock (each, an "Option") and determine the number
of shares of Common Stock to be covered by each Option, the exercise price of each Option and the conditions and limitations applicable to the exercise of each Option, including conditions relating to
applicable federal or state securities laws, as it considers necessary or advisable. An Option which is not intended to be an Incentive Stock Option (as hereinafter defined) shall be designated a
"Nonstatutory Stock Option".

(b)Incentive Stock Options.An Option that the Board intends to be an "incentive stock option" as defined in
Section 422 of the Code (an "Incentive Stock Option") shall only be granted to employees of Staples, Inc., any of Staples, Inc.'s present or future parent or subsidiary
corporations as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Code, and any other entities the employees of which are eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options under the Code, and shall be
subject to and shall be construed consistently with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. The Company shall have no liability to a Participant, or any other party, if an Option (or any
part thereof) that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option is not an Incentive Stock Option.

(c)Exercise Price.The Board shall establish the exercise price at the time each Option is granted and specify
it in the applicable option agreement; provided, however, that the exercise price shall be not less than 100% of the fair market value (the "Fair Market Value") of the Common Stock, as determined by
the Board, at the time the Option is granted.

(d)No Reload Rights.Options granted under this Plan shall not contain any provision entitling the optionee to
the automatic grant of additional Options in connection with any exercise of the original Option.

(e)No Repricing.Unless such action is approved by the Company's stockholders: (i) no outstanding Option
granted under the Plan may be amended to provide an exercise price per share that is lower than the then-current exercise price per share of such outstanding Option (other than adjustments
pursuant to Section 9), and (ii) the Board may not cancel any outstanding Option and grant in substitution therefor new Options under the Plan covering the same or a different number of
shares
of Common Stock and having an exercise price per share lower than the then-current exercise price per share of the cancelled Option.

(f)Duration of Options.Each Option shall be exercisable at such times and subject to such terms and conditions
as the Board may specify in the applicable option agreement provided, however, that no Option will be granted for a term in excess of 10 years.

(g)Exercise of Option.Options may be exercised by delivery to the Company of a written notice of exercise
signed by the proper person or by any other form of notice (including electronic notice) approved by the Company, together with payment in full as specified in Section 5(h) for the number of
shares for which the Option is exercised. Shares of Common Stock subject to the Option will be delivered by the Company following exercise either as soon as practicable or, to the extent permitted by
the Company in its sole discretion, on a deferred basis in compliance with Section 409A of the Code (with the Company's obligation to be evidenced by an instrument providing for future delivery
of the deferred shares at the time or times specified by the Board).

(h)Payment Upon Exercise.Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of an Option granted under the Plan shall be
paid for as follows:



3

---





(i)Substitute Options.In connection with a merger or consolidation of an entity with the Company or the
acquisition by the Company of property or stock of an entity, the Board may grant Options in substitution for any options or other stock or stock-based awards granted by such entity or an affiliate
thereof. Substitute Options may be granted pursuant to this Section 5(i) on such terms as the Board deems appropriate in the circumstances, notwithstanding any limitations on Options contained
in the other sections of this Section 5 or in Section 2, so long as (a) the excess of the aggregate fair market value of the shares subject to each substituted option immediately
after the issuance of such substituted option over the aggregate exercise price of such option does not exceed the excess of the aggregate fair market value of all shares subject to the original
option immediately before the issuance of such substituted option over the aggregate exercise price of the original option and (b) the ratio of the option exercise price to the fair market
value of the stock for the substitute option is not greater than the ratio of the option exercise price to the fair market value of the original option immediately before such substitution.

(j)Amendment of Options.Subject to the provisions of Section 10(f), the Board may amend an Option to
convert it into a Stock Appreciation Right.

6.Stock Appreciation Rights

(a)Nature of Stock Appreciation Rights.A Stock Appreciation Right, or SAR, is an Award entitling the holder on
exercise to receive an amount in cash or Common Stock or a combination thereof (such form to be determined by the Board) determined solely by reference to appreciation, from and after the date of
grant, in the fair market value of a share of Common Stock. The date as of which such appreciation or other measure is determined shall be the exercise date unless another date is specified by the
Board.

(b)Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights.Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted in tandem with, or
independently of, Options granted under the Plan.



4

(c)Exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights.Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised by delivery to the Company
of a written notice of exercise signed by the proper person or by any other form of notice (including electronic notice) approved by the Company.

7.Restricted Stock; Restricted Stock Units

(a)Grants.The Board may grant Awards entitling recipients to acquire shares of Common Stock ("Restricted
Stock"), subject to the right of the Company to repurchase all or part of such shares at their issue price or other stated or formula price (or to require forfeiture of such shares if issued at no
cost) from the recipient in the event that conditions specified by the Board in the applicable Award are not satisfied prior to the end of the applicable restriction period or periods established by
the Board for such Award. Instead of granting Awards for Restricted Stock, the Board may grant Awards entitling the recipient to receive shares of Common Stock to be delivered in the future
("Restricted Stock Units") subject to such terms and conditions on the delivery of the shares of Common Stock as the Board shall determine (each Award for Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units, a
"Restricted Stock Award").

(b)Terms and Conditions.The Board shall determine the terms and conditions of any such Restricted Stock Award,
including the conditions for repurchase (or forfeiture) and the issue price, if any.

(c)Limitations on Vesting.

Restricted
Stock Awards that vest based on the passage of time alone shall be zero percent vested prior to the first anniversary of the date of grant, no more than 331/3%
vested after the said first anniversary of the date of grant and before the second anniversary of the date of grant, and no more than 662/3% vested after the second anniversary of the
date of grant and before the third anniversary of the date of grant. Restricted Stock Awards that vest based on performance alone shall not vest earlier than the first anniversary of the date of
grant. Restricted Stock Awards that vest upon the passage of time and provide for accelerated vesting based on performance shall not vest earlier than the first anniversary of the date of grant.
Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 7(c)(1), the Board may grant Restricted Stock Awards that are not subject to any limitations on vesting with respect to up to 5% of the
total number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Plan (excluding any shares that may become available under this Plan pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) hereof).

Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Plan, the Board may, in its discretion, either at the time a Restricted Stock Award is made or at any time thereafter, waive its right to
repurchase shares of Common Stock (or waive the forfeiture thereof) or remove or modify any part or all of the restrictions applicable to the Restricted Stock Award, provided that the Board may only
exercise such rights in

5

extraordinary
circumstances which shall include, without limitation, death or disability of the Participant; estate planning needs of the Participant; a merger, consolidation, sale, reorganization,
recapitalization, or change in control of the Company; or any other nonrecurring significant event affecting the Company, a Participant or the Plan.

8.Other Stock-Based Awards

Other
Awards of shares of Common Stock and other Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based on, shares of Common Stock or other property,
including without limitation rights to purchase shares of Common Stock ("Other Stock Unit Awards"), may be granted hereunder to Participants. Such Other Stock Unit Awards shall also be available as a
form of payment in the settlement of other Awards granted under the Plan or as payment in lieu of compensation to which a Participant is otherwise entitled. Other Stock Unit Awards may be paid in
shares of Common Stock or cash, as the Board shall determine. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Board shall determine the conditions of each Other Stock Unit Awards, including any purchase
price applicable thereto; provided, however, that the limitations on vesting and exceptions thereto contained in Section 7(c)(1) of the Plan shall also apply to all Other Stock Unit Awards.

9.Adjustments for Changes in Common Stock and Certain Other Events

(a)Changes in Capitalization.In the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization, combination of shares, reclassification of shares, spin-off or other similar change in capitalization or event, or any distribution to holders of Common Stock other than
an ordinary cash dividend, (i) the number and class of securities available under this Plan, (ii) the sub-limits set forth in Section 4(b), (iii) the number and
class of securities and exercise price per share subject to each outstanding Option, (iv) the repurchase price per share subject to each outstanding Restricted Stock Award and (v) the
terms of each other outstanding stock-based Award shall be adjusted by the Company in the same proportion (or substituted Awards may be made, if applicable). If this Section 9(a) applies and
Section 9(c) also applies to any event, Section 9(c) shall be applicable to such event, and this Section 9(a) shall not be applicable.

(b)Liquidation or Dissolution.In the event of a proposed liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the Board
shall upon written notice to the Participants provide that all then unexercised Options will (i) become exercisable in full as of a specified time at least 10 business days prior to the
effective date of such liquidation or dissolution and (ii) terminate effective upon such liquidation or dissolution, except to the extent exercised before such effective date. The Board may
specify the effect of a liquidation or dissolution on any Restricted Stock Award granted under the Plan at the time of the grant.

(c)Reorganization Events.

10.General Provisions Applicable to Awards

(a)Transferability of Awards.Awards shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered
by the person to whom they are granted, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, other than in the case of an Incentive Stock Option,
pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, and, during the life of the Participant, shall be exercisable only by the Participant; provided, however, that the Board may permit or provide in an
Award for the gratuitous transfer of the Award by the Participant to or for the benefit of any immediate family member, family trust or family partnership established solely for the benefit of the
Participant and/or an immediate family member thereof if, with respect to such proposed transferee, the Company would be eligible to use a Form S-8 for the registration of the sale
of the Common Stock subject to such Award under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; provided, further, that the Company shall not be required to recognize any such transfer until such time as the
Participant and such permitted transferee shall, as a condition to such transfer, deliver to the Company a written instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Company confirming that such
transferee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the Award. References to a Participant, to the extent relevant in the context, shall include references to authorized transferees.

(b)Documentation.Each Award shall be evidenced in such form (written, electronic or otherwise) as the Board
shall determine. Each Award may contain terms and conditions in addition to those set forth in the Plan.

(c)Board Discretion.Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, each Award may be made alone or in addition or
in relation to any other Award. The terms of each Award need not be identical, and the Board need not treat Participants uniformly.

(d)Termination of Status.The Board shall determine the effect on an Award of the disability, death,
retirement, authorized leave of absence or other change in the employment or other status of a Participant and the extent to which, and the period during which, the Participant, the Participant's
legal representative, conservator or guardian may exercise rights under the Award.

(e)Withholding.The Company may require each Participant to pay to the Company, or make provision satisfactory
to the Company for payment of, an amount sufficient to pay any taxes, social security contributions, or other similar amounts required by law to be withheld in connection with an Award to such
Participant. If provided for in an Award or approved by the Company, in its sole

7

---



discretion,
a Participant may satisfy such tax obligations in whole or in part by delivery of shares of Common Stock, including shares retained from the Award creating the tax obligation, valued at
their Fair Market Value; provided, however, that except as otherwise provided by the Board, the total tax withholding where stock is being used to satisfy such tax obligations cannot exceed the
Company's minimum statutory withholding obligations (based on minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to such supplemental
taxable income). Shares surrendered to satisfy tax withholding requirements cannot be subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting or other similar requirements. The Company may, to the
extent permitted by law, deduct any such tax obligations from any payment of any kind otherwise due to a Participant.

(f)Amendment of Award.Except as prohibited by Section 5(e), the Board may amend, modify or terminate
any outstanding Award, including but not limited to, substituting therefor another Award of the same or a different type, changing the date of exercise or realization, converting an Incentive Stock
Option to a Nonstatutory Stock Option and converting an Option into a SAR, provided that, in each such case, the Participant's consent to such action shall be required unless the Board determines that
the action, taking into account any related action, would not materially and adversely affect the Participant.

(g)Conditions on Delivery of Stock.The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock
pursuant to the Plan or to remove restrictions from shares previously delivered under the Plan until (i) all conditions of the Award have been met or removed to the satisfaction of the Company,
(ii) in the opinion of the Company's counsel, all other legal matters in connection with the issuance and
delivery of such shares have been satisfied, including any applicable securities laws and any applicable stock exchange or stock market rules and regulations, and (iii) the Participant has
executed and delivered to the Company such representations or agreements as the Company may consider appropriate to satisfy the requirements of any applicable laws, rules or regulations.

(h)Acceleration.The Board may at any time provide that any Award shall become immediately exercisable in full
or in part, free of some or all restrictions or conditions, or otherwise realizable in full or in part, as the case may be; provided, however, that this sentence shall apply to a Restricted Stock
Award only to the extent consistent with Sections 7(c)(2) and 10(j).

(i)Deferral.The Board may provide in an Award or in an amendment to an Award that the Participant may elect to
defer the delivery of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be delivered pursuant to such Award. The Board may establish such conditions on the Participant's election as it deems appropriate,
including provisions to obtain compliance with Section 409A of the Code.

(j)Performance Conditions.

Notwithstanding
any other provision of the Plan, if the Committee determines at the time a Restricted Stock Award or an Other Stock Unit Award is granted to a Participant who is then an
officer, that such Participant is, or is likely to be as of the end of the tax year in which the Company would claim a tax deduction in connection with such Award, a Covered Employee (as defined in
Section 162(m) of the Code), then the Committee may provide that this Section 10(j) is applicable to such Award.

If
a Restricted Stock Award or an Other Stock Unit Award is subject to this Section 10(j), then the lapsing of restrictions thereon and the distribution of Shares pursuant
thereto, as applicable, shall be subject to the achievement of one or more objective performance goals established by the Committee, which shall be based on one or more of the following measures:
sales, earnings per share, return on net assets, return on equity, and customer service levels. The Committee may determine that special one-time or extraordinary gains and/or losses
and/or other one-time or extraordinary events

8

---



should
or should not be included or considered in the calculation of such measures. In addition, customer service target levels will be based on predetermined tests of customer service levels such as
scores on blind test ("mystery") shopping, customer comment card statistics, customer relations statistics (e.g., number of customer complaints), and delivery response levels. The Committee
believes that disclosure of further detail concerning the performance criteria may be confidential commercial or business information, the disclosure of which would adversely affect the Company. Such
performance goals may vary by Participant and may be different for different Awards. Such performance goals shall be set by the Committee within the time period prescribed by, and shall otherwise
comply with the requirements of, Section 162(m) of the Code, or any successor provision thereto, and the regulations thereunder.

The
Committee shall have the power to impose such other restrictions on Awards subject to this Section 10(j) as it may deem necessary or appropriate to ensure that such Awards
satisfy all requirements for "performance-based compensation" within the meaning of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, or any successor provision thereto.

11.Miscellaneous

(a)No Right To Employment or Other Status.No person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award, and
the grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to continued employment or any other relationship with the Company. The Company expressly reserves the right at any time
to dismiss or otherwise terminate its relationship with a Participant free from any liability or claim under the Plan, except as expressly provided in the applicable Award.

(b)No Rights As Stockholder.Subject to the provisions of the applicable Award, no Participant shall have any
rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock to be distributed with respect to an Award until becoming the record holder of such shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
event the Company effects a split of the Common Stock by means of a stock dividend and the exercise price of and the number of shares subject to such Option are adjusted as of the date of the
distribution of the dividend (rather than as of the record date for such dividend), then an optionee who exercises an Option between the record date and the distribution date for such stock dividend
shall be entitled to receive, on the distribution date, the stock dividend with respect to the shares of Common Stock acquired upon such Option exercise, notwithstanding the fact that such shares were
not outstanding as of the close of business on the record date for such stock dividend.

(c)Effective Date and Term of Plan.The Plan shall become effective on the date on which it is approved by
stockholders of the Company and shall remain in full force and effect until terminated by the Board. No Awards shall be granted under the Plan after the completion of ten years from the date on which
the Plan is adopted or was approved by the Company's stockholders, whichever is earlier, but Awards previously granted may extend beyond that date.

(d)Amendment of Plan.The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time,
provided that no amendment requiring the approval of the Company's stockholders under any applicable tax requirement, including without limitation Sections 162(m) and 422 of the Code, shall
become effective until such approval of the Company's stockholders is obtained and provided further that without approval of the Company's stockholders, no amendment may (i) increase the number
of shares authorized under the Plan (other than pursuant to Section 9), (ii) materially increase the benefits provided under the Plan, (iii) materially expand the class of
participants eligible to participate in the Plan, (iv) expand the types of Awards provided under the Plan or (v) make any other changes which require stockholder approval under the rules
of the Nasdaq National Market, Inc. No Award shall be made that is conditioned on the approval of the Company's stockholders of any amendment to the Plan.

(e)Provisions for Foreign Participants.The Board may modify the terms and conditions of Awards granted to
Participants who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States, establish subplans under the Plan, or adopt such modifications or procedures as the Board may determine to be necessary or
advisable to recognize differences in laws, rules, regulations or customs of such foreign jurisdictions with respect to tax, securities, currency, employee benefit, accounting or other matters.

(f)Compliance With Code Section 409A.No Award shall provide for deferral of compensation that does not
comply with Section 409A of the Code, unless the Board, at the time of grant, specifically provides that the Award is not intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

(g)Governing Law.The provisions of the Plan and all Awards made hereunder shall be governed by and interpreted
in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any applicable conflicts of law.
