APPENDIX A
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PERFORMANCE SHARES

    1.    Grant of Performance Shares.  The Company hereby grants to the Employee as a separate incentive in connection with his or her employment with the Company or an Affiliate and is not in lieu of any salary or other compensation for his or her services to the Company or an Affiliate, an Award with respect to the number of Performance Shares set forth on page 1 of this Agreement, subject to all the terms and conditions in this Agreement and the Plan.  

    2.    Company’s Obligation to Pay.  Unless and until a Performance Share has vested in accordance with the terms hereof, the Employee will have no right to payment of a Share with respect to the Performance Share.  Prior to actual payment of any Shares pursuant to vested Performance Shares, each Performance Share represents an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company.  No Shares shall be issued until after the Performance Shares have vested in accordance with the terms hereof and shall be issued in accordance with the settlement terms hereof.  Notwithstanding Section 9.6 of the Plan, the Performance Shares will only be settled, if at all, in Shares, provided that to the extent a fractional share is earned, the number of Shares paid shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number and no fractional Share shall be issued.

    3.    Vesting of Performance Shares and Issuance of Shares.

(a)  Subject to paragraphs 4, 5 and 6, the Performance Shares subject to this Agreement will vest (as to the number of Performance Shares determined by the Committee based on the extent to which the Performance Goals have been achieved) on the dates described on the first page of this Agreement (each a “Vesting Date”), but in each case, only if the Employee has been continuously employed by, or providing consulting services to, the Company or one of its Affiliates from the date of this Award until the applicable Vesting Date of the Performance Shares.  If the Employee has had a Termination of Service (as described below) prior to such date(s), the Award shall terminate as set forth in paragraph 6.

(b)  Subject to earlier issuance pursuant to paragraph 4 or 5, upon each Vesting Date, one Share shall be issued for each Performance Share that vests on such Vesting Date, subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan and this Agreement.  

(c)  If the Committee, in its discretion, accelerates the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Performance Shares (or acceleration occurs pursuant to Section 12.2 of the Plan), the payment of such accelerated Performance Shares nevertheless shall be made at the same time or times as if such Performance Shares had vested in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth on the first page of this Agreement (whether or not the Employee remains employed by the Company or by one of its Affiliates as of such date(s)). 

(d)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Committee, in its discretion, accelerates the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Performance Shares in connection with the Employee’s “separation from service" within the meaning of Section 409A and if (i) the Employee is subject to U.S. income tax, and (ii) the Employee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such separation from service, then any such accelerated Performance Shares otherwise payable within the six (6) month period following the Employee’s separation from service instead will be paid on the date that is six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of the Employee’s separation from service, unless the Employee dies following his or her separation from service prior to such time, in which case, the Performance Shares will be paid to the Employee’s estate (or beneficiary) upon his or her death, subject to paragraph 7.  Thereafter, such Performance Shares shall continue to be paid in accordance with the requirements of paragraph 3(c).  For purposes of this Agreement, “Section 409A” means Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any final Treasury Regulations and other Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder, as each may be amended from time to time (“Section 409A”).  This paragraph 3(d) shall only apply to the extent necessary to avoid taxation under Section 409A.

(e)  It is the intent of this Agreement to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the Performance Shares granted under this Agreement or the Shares issued in payment thereof will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply.  

(f)  No fractional Shares shall be issued under this Agreement.  To the extent a fractional share is earned, the number of Shares paid shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number and no fractional Share shall be issued.

    4.    Death and Disability.  In the event of the Employee’s death or Termination of Service (or for U.S. taxpayers “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A) due to Disability (“Disability Termination”), in each case, after the end of the applicable performance period, the unvested Performance Shares granted pursuant to this Agreement shall automatically and with no exercise of discretion by the Committee become fully vested, and shall be settled, as soon as practicable in the calendar year of the 
2
			
	

Employee’s death or Disability Termination, in each case, to the extent that the Performance Goals have been achieved and certified by the Committee on the Certification Date.  If (i) the Employee is subject to U.S. income tax, and (ii) the Employee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such Disability Termination then, to the extent necessary to avoid taxation under Section 409A, the payment of such accelerated Performance Shares will not be made until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of such termination, unless the Employee dies following such termination prior to such time, in which case, the Performance Shares will be paid to the Employee’s estate (or beneficiary) upon his or her death, subject to paragraph 7.  

    5.    Retirement.  

(a)    Except as would result in taxation under Section 409A, a portion of the unvested Performance Shares granted pursuant to this Agreement automatically and with no exercise of discretion by the Committee shall become fully vested, and shall be settled, and applicable taxes shall be withheld by the Company or its designated Affiliate in accordance with paragraph 7 at the following time: (i) if the Performance Goals have been achieved before the Employee becomes eligible for Retirement (as defined below), on the later of the date the Employee becomes eligible for Retirement or November 15th of the year in which the Employee becomes eligible for Retirement; or (ii) if the Employee becomes eligible for Retirement before the Performance Goals are achieved, on the later of the date the Performance Goals are achieved or November 15th of the year in which the Performance Goals are achieved.  The portion of the unvested Performance Shares that vests and is settled in accordance with the preceding sentence shall have an aggregate market value sufficient to pay any taxes required to be withheld by the Company (or an Affiliate) solely as a result of (a) the Employee’s becoming eligible to receive Shares upon Retirement pursuant to paragraph 5(b), and (b) the vesting and settlement of such portion of the unvested Performance Shares.

(b)    In the event of the Employee’s Retirement (as defined below) after the end of the applicable performance period, the unvested Performance Shares granted pursuant to this Agreement automatically and with no exercise of discretion by the Committee shall become fully vested, and shall be settled, as soon as practicable in the calendar year of the Employee’s Retirement, to the extent that the Performance Goals have been achieved and certified by the Committee on the Certification Date.  If (i) the Employee is subject to U.S. income tax, and (ii) the Employee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of the Employee’s Retirement then, to the extent necessary to avoid taxation under Section 409A, the payment of such accelerated Performance Shares will not be made until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of the Employee’s Retirement, unless the Employee dies following such Retirement prior to such time, in which case, the Performance Shares will be paid to the Employee’s estate (or beneficiary) upon his or her death, subject to paragraph 7.  

For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean the Employee’s Termination of Service (or for U.S. taxpayers “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A) for any reason (other than due to the Employee’s misconduct as determined by the Company in its sole discretion) after the Employee has attained age 60 and completed at least five (5) years of continuous service as an Employee of the Company or an Affiliate.

    6.    Termination of Service.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement and except as set forth in paragraphs 3, 4 or 5, the balance of the Performance Shares that have not vested will be forfeited and cancelled automatically at the time of the Employee’s Termination of Service.  For purposes of this Agreement, Termination of Service shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan and be determined by reference to the Employee’s service without reference to any other agreement, written or oral, including the Employee’s contract of employment (if any).  Thus, in the event of the Employee’s Termination of Service (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), unless otherwise expressly provided for under this Agreement, the Employee’s right to vest in the Performance Shares under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective at the time of the Employee’s Termination of Service; the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Employee has incurred a Termination of Service.  

    7.    Withholding Taxes.  As a condition to the grant and vesting of this Award and as further set forth in Sections 10.7 and 10.8 of the Plan, the Employee hereby agrees to make adequate provision for the satisfaction of (and will indemnify the Company, the Employer and any other Affiliate) for the amount of any income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, or any other required deductions or payments related to the Employee’s participation in the Plan and legally payable by the Employee, if any, including any Tax Obligations (“Tax-Related Items”) which arise upon the grant or vesting of the Performance Shares under this Agreement, ownership or disposition of Shares, receipt of dividends, if any, or otherwise in connection with the Performance Shares or the Shares, whether by withholding, direct payment to the Company, or otherwise as determined by the Company in its sole discretion.  Regardless of any action the Company or the Employee’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all Tax-Related Items, the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Employee is and remains the Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer.  The Employee further acknowledges and agrees that the Employee is also solely responsible for filing all relevant documentation that may be required of the Employee in relation to his or her participation in the Plan or any 
3
			
	

Tax-Related Items (other than filings or documentation that is the specific obligation of the Company, the Employer or any Affiliate pursuant to Applicable Laws), such as but not limited to personal income tax returns or any reporting statements in relation to the grant, holding, vesting of the Performance Shares, the holding of Shares or any bank or brokerage account, the subsequent sale of Shares, and the receipt of dividends, if any.  The Employee further acknowledges that the Company and the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Performance Shares, including the grant, holding, or vesting of the Performance Shares, the holding or subsequent sale of Shares acquired under the Plan and the receipt of dividends, if any; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the Performance Shares or any aspect of these Performance Shares to reduce or eliminate the Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items, or achieve any particular tax result.  The Employee also understands that Applicable Laws may require varying Share or Performance Share valuation methods for purposes of calculating Tax-Related Items, and the Company assumes no responsibility or liability in relation to any such valuation or for any calculation or reporting of income or Tax-Related Items that may be required of the Employee under applicable laws.  Further, if the Employee has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) or other Affiliate may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

    No payment will be made to the Employee (or his or her estate) in relation to these Performance Shares unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Committee) have been made by the Employee with respect to the payment of any Tax-Related Items and any other obligations of the Company and/or the Employer with respect to the Performance Shares.  In this regard, the Employee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following, provided, however, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the case of individuals subject to Section 16 of the U.S. Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, all Tax-Related Items shall only be satisfied by such procedure specifically approved by the Committee in resolutions: 

(a)  withholding from the Employee’s wages or other cash compensation paid to the Employee by the Company or the Employer; or

(b)  withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting of the Performance Shares, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Employee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization); or

(c)  withholding in Shares to be issued upon settlement of the Performance Shares; or

(d)  surrendering already-owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the Tax-Related Items that have been held for such period of time to avoid adverse accounting consequences.

    If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding Shares, for tax purposes, the Employee is, subject to Applicable Laws, deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the Performance Shares, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the Employee’s participation in the Plan.  The Employee shall pay to the Company or Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Employee’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by one or more of the means previously described in this paragraph 7.  The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if the Employee fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.  In addition, the Employee further agrees that any cross-border cash remittance made to transfer proceeds received upon the sale of Shares must be made through a locally authorized financial institution or registered foreign exchange agency and may require the Employee to provide to such entity certain information regarding the transaction.  

    It is the Company’s current practice to withhold a portion of the Shares scheduled to be issued pursuant to vested Performance Shares that have an aggregate market value sufficient to pay the Tax-Related Items.  The Company will only withhold whole Shares and therefore the Employee also authorizes deduction without notice from salary or other amounts payable to the Employee of cash in an amount sufficient to satisfy the Employer’s remaining tax withholding obligation.  Notwithstanding the previous two sentences, the Employee, if the Company in its sole discretion so agrees, may elect to furnish to the Company written notice, no more than 30 days and no less than 5 days in advance of a scheduled Vesting Date (or other required withholding event), of his or her intent to satisfy the tax withholding requirement by remitting the full amount of the tax withholding to the Company on the scheduled Vesting Date (or other required withholding event).  In the event that the Employee provides such written notice and fails to satisfy the amounts required for the Tax-Related Items by the Vesting Date (or other required withholding event), the Company shall satisfy the tax withholding requirement pursuant to the first two sentences of this paragraph.  However, the Company reserves the right to withhold for Tax-Related Items pursuant to any means set forth in this paragraph.

    8.    Vesting/Foreign Taxes Due.  If the Employee is subject to tax in a country outside the U.S. (“Foreign Country”) and if pursuant to the tax rules in such Foreign Country, the Employee will be subject to tax prior to the date that the Employee is issued Shares pursuant to this Agreement, the Committee, in its discretion, may accelerate settlement of a portion of the Performance Shares (but only to the extent already earned and vested, including satisfaction of the Performance Goals) to the extent necessary to pay the foreign taxes due (and any applicable U.S. income taxes due as a result of the acceleration of settlement) but only if such acceleration does not result in adverse consequences under Section 409A (as permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(xi)).

    9.    Beneficiary Designation.  Any distribution or delivery to be made to the Employee under this Agreement will, if the Employee is then deceased, be made to the Employee's designated beneficiary to the extent such designation is valid under applicable law, or if no such beneficiary survives the Employee or no beneficiary is designated, the person or persons entitled to such distribution or delivery under the Employee's will or, to the executor of his or her estate.  In order to be effective, a beneficiary designation must be made by the Employee in a form and manner acceptable to the Company and permitted by the Company.  Any transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.

    10.    Conditions to Issuance of Shares.  The Shares deliverable to the Employee on the applicable settlement date may be either previously authorized but unissued Shares or issued Shares that have been reacquired by the Company.  The Company shall not be required to issue any Shares hereunder so long as the Company reasonably anticipates that such issuance will violate Federal securities law, foreign securities law or other Applicable Laws; provided however, that in such event the Company shall issue such Shares at the earliest possible date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that the issuance of the shares will not cause such violation. For purposes of the previous sentence, any issuance of Shares that would cause inclusion in gross income or the application of any penalty provision or other provision of the Internal Revenue Code or foreign tax law shall not be treated as a violation of Applicable Laws. Furthermore, the Company retains sole discretion to determine if and when it is appropriate to undertake any regulatory filing or other administrative steps in order to avoid such violation. The Company is under no obligation to undertake any such filing or other steps that would not otherwise be required except in relation to the Plan and grants thereunder and shall not assume any liability due to the failure to complete such filing or other steps.    

    11.    Rights as Stockholder.  Neither the Employee nor any person claiming under or through the Employee will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Performance Share unless and until Shares have been issued in accordance with paragraph 3, 4 or 5, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to the Employee.  Except as provided in paragraph 12, after such issuance, recordation, and delivery, the Employee will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.  

    12.    Adjustments.  The Award is subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 4.3 of the Plan.   

    13.    Nature of Grant.  In accepting the grant of Performance Shares, the Employee acknowledges that:

(a)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time;

(b)the grant of the Performance Shares is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Performance Shares, or benefits in lieu of Performance Shares, even if Performance Shares have been granted repeatedly in the past, and all decisions with respect to future grants of Stock Awards or other Awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

(c)all decisions with respect to future Performance Share grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

(d)the Employee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary participating in the Plan;

(e)the Performance Shares and the Shares subject to the Performance Shares are extraordinary items that do not constitute regular compensation for services rendered to the Company or the Employer, and that are outside the scope of the Employee’s employment contract, if any;

(f)the Performance Shares and the Shares subject to the Performance Shares are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

(g)the Performance Shares and the Shares subject to the Performance Shares are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any 
5
			
	

severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company or the Employer;

(h)(j)  the future value of the Shares underlying the Performance Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; 

(i)(k)  neither the Company, nor any Affiliate is responsible for any foreign exchange fluctuation between local currency and the United States Dollar (or the selection by the Company or an Affiliate in its sole discretion of an applicable foreign currency exchange rate) that may affect the value of the Performance Shares (or the calculation of income or Tax-Related Items thereunder);

(j)(l)  in consideration of the grant of the Performance Shares, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Performance Shares resulting from the Employee’s Termination of Service (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and the Employee irrevocably releases the Employer from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, the Employee shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived his or her entitlement to pursue such claim; and

(k)(m)  the Performance Shares and the benefits under the Plan, if any, will not automatically transfer to another company in the case of a merger, take-over or transfer of liability.

    14.    No Advice Regarding Grant.  The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Employee’s participation in the Plan, or his or her acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares.  The Employee is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding the Employee’s participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.

    15.    Data Privacy.  The Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Employee’s Personal Data (as described below) by and among, as applicable, the Company and any Subsidiary or Affiliate or third parties as may be selected by the Company, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan. The Employee understands that refusal or withdrawal of consent will affect the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan; without providing consent, the Employee will not be able to participate in the Plan or realize benefits (if any) from the Performance Shares.

    The Employee understands that the Company and any Subsidiary or Affiliate or designated third parties may hold certain personal information about the Employee, including, but not limited to, the Employee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, details of all Performance Shares or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Employee’s favor (“Personal Data”).  The Employee understands that Personal Data may be transferred to any Subsidiary or Affiliate or third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the United States, the Employee’s country, or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Employee’s country. In particular, the Company may transfer Personal Data to the broker or stock plan administrator assisting with the Plan, to its legal counsel and tax/accounting advisor, and to the Subsidiary or Affiliate that is the Employee’s employer and its payroll provider.

    The Employee should also refer to the Gap Inc. Employee Privacy Policy (which is available to the Employee separately and may be updated from time to time) for more information regarding the collection, use, storage, and transfer of the Employee’s Personal Data.

The Employee understands and agrees that unless contrary to applicable local law or there is an employment contract in place providing otherwise, his or her employment is "at-will" and that either the Employer or the Employee may terminate the Employee's employment at any time and for any reason subject to applicable local law.

    28.    Language.  If the Employee has received this Agreement, including Appendices, or any other document related to the Plan translated into a language other than English, and the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control.

As stated above, Appendix B constitutes part of this Agreement.  To the extent that an applicable term or condition set forth in Appendix B conflicts with a provision in this Appendix A, the provisions of Appendix B shall apply.

    30.    Imposition of Other Requirements.  The Company reserves the right, without the Employee’s consent, to cancel or forfeit any outstanding portion of the Performance Shares or to impose other requirements on the Employee’s participation in the Plan, on the Performance Shares and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with Applicable Laws or facilitate the administration of the Plan, and to require the Employee to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.  The Employee also understands that the laws of the country in which the Employee is residing or working at the time of grant or vesting of these Performance Shares (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax, labor or other matters) may restrict or prevent the issuance of Shares or may subject the Employee to additional procedural or regulatory requirements that the Employee is and will be solely responsible for and must fulfill, and neither the Company nor any Affiliate assumes any liability in relation to these Performance Shares in such case.  Such requirements may be outlined in but are not limited to those described in Appendix B.

APPENDIX B

ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE GAP, INC.
PERFORMANCE SHARE AGREEMENT
NON-U.S. EMPLOYEES

This Appendix B includes special terms and conditions applicable to the Employee if the Employee resides or works in or moves to or otherwise becomes subject to the laws or company policies of one of the countries listed below.  These terms and conditions are in addition to or, if so indicated, in place of, the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement.  Unless otherwise provided below, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings assigned to them in the Plan and the Agreement.

This Appendix B also includes country-specific information of which the Employee should be aware with respect to his or her participation in the Plan.  The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of February 2022.  However, such laws are often complex and change frequently.  As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Employee does not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of the Employee’s participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time that the Employee vests in Performance Shares or sells Shares acquired under the Plan.

In addition, the information is general in nature and may not apply to the Employee’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure the Employee of any particular result.  Accordingly, the Employee is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in his or her country may apply to his or her situation.  Finally, please note that the notices, disclaimers and/or terms and conditions contained in this Appendix B may also apply, as from the date of grant, if the Employee moves to or otherwise is or becomes subject to the Applicable Laws or company policies of the relevant country(ies) listed below.

Securities Law Notice

Such requirements are the Employee’s personal obligation, and the Employee is advised to seek professional advice.

HONG KONG

Securities Law Notice.  The Performance Shares and Shares issued upon vesting (if any) do not constitute a public offering of securities under Hong Kong law and are available only to Employees of the Company and its Affiliates.  The Agreement, including this Appendix B, the Plan and other incidental communication materials have not been prepared in accordance with and are not intended to constitute a “prospectus” for a public offering of securities under the applicable securities legislation in Hong Kong.  Nor have the documents been reviewed by, registered with or authorized by any regulatory authority in Hong Kong, including the Securities and Futures Commission.  The Award is intended only for the personal use of each eligible Employee of the Company or its Affiliates and may not be distributed to any other person.  If the Employee is in any doubt about any of the contents of the Agreement, including this Appendix B, or the Plan, the Employee should obtain independent professional advice.

INDIA

Tax Information.  The amount subject to tax at vesting may be dependent upon a valuation of Shares from a Merchant Banker in India.  The Company has no responsibility or obligation to obtain the most favorable valuation possible nor obtain valuations more frequently than required under Indian tax law.

Exchange Control Obligations.  The Employee understands that he or she must repatriate any proceeds from the sale of Shares acquired under the Plan to India within ninety (90) days of receipt.  Dividends (if any) must be repatriated within sixty (60) days of receipt.  The Employee will receive a foreign inward remittance

JAPAN

The Employee should discuss his/her tax treatment with his/her personal tax advisor. 

MEXICO

Labor Law Acknowledgment.  The invitation Gap, Inc. is making under the Plan is unilateral and discretionary and is not related to the salary and other contractual benefits granted to the Employee by his or her employer; therefore, benefits derived from the Plan will not under any circumstance be considered as an integral part of the Employee’s salary. . Gap, Inc. reserves the absolute right to amend the Plan and discontinue it at any time without incurring any liability whatsoever. This invitation and, in the Employee’s case, the acquisition of shares does not, in any way, establish a labor relationship between the Employee and Gap, Inc., as participation in the Plan is based on the commercial relationship between Gap, Inc. and the Employee’s employer, nor does it establish any rights between the Employee and his or her employer.

La invitación que Gap, Inc. hace en relación con el Plan es unilateral, discrecional y no se relaciona con el salario y otros beneficios que recibe actualmente de su actual empleador de el/la Empleado/a, por lo que cualquier beneficio derivado del Plan no será considerado bajo ninguna circunstancia como parte integral de su salario. Por lo anterior, Gap, Inc. se reserva el derecho absoluto para modificar o terminar el mismo, sin incurrir en responsabilidad alguna a Empleado/a. Esta invitación y, en caso de el/la Empleado/a, la adquisición de acciones, de ninguna manera establecen relación laboral alguna entre el/la Empleado/a y Gap, Inc., toda vez que la participación en el Plan es derivado de la relación comercial entre Gap, Inc. y el empleador de el/la Empleado/a, y tampoco genera derecho alguno entre el/la Empleado/a y su empleador.

SINGAPORE

Securities Law Notice.  The grant of the Performance Shares and any Shares thereunder is made in reliance on section 273(1)(f) of the Securities and Futures Act (Cap. 289) (“SFA”), which provides an exemption from the prospectus and registration requirements under the SFA, and not with a view to the Performance Shares or Shares being offered for sale or sold to any other party in Singapore.  The Employee understands that this Agreement and/or any other document or material in connection with this offer and the underlying Shares have not been and will not be lodged, registered or reviewed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore. Any and all Shares to be issued hereunder shall therefore be subject to the general resale restriction under Section 257 of the SFA.  By accepting the Performance Shares, the Employee agrees not to sell or offer any Shares (received under this Performance Shares grant) in Singapore within six months of the date of grant and unless such sale or offer in Singapore is made pursuant to the exemptions under Part XIII Division (1) Subdivision (4) other than Section 280 of the SFA.

Director Notification Obligation.  If the Employee is a director, associate director or shadow director (i.e., a non-director who has sufficient control so that the directors act in accordance with the directions and instructions of this individual) of the Company’s local entity in Singapore, he or she is subject to notification requirements under the Singapore Companies Act.  Some of these notification requirements will be triggered by the Employee’s participation in the Plan.  Specifically, the Employee is required to notify the local Singapore company when he or she acquires or disposes an interest in the Company, including when the Employee receives Shares upon vesting of this Award and when the Employee sells these Shares.  The notification must be in writing and must be made within two days of acquiring or disposing of any interest in the Company (or within two days of initially becoming a director, associate director or shadow director of the Company’s local entity in Singapore).  If the Employee is unclear as to whether he or she is a director, associate director or shadow director of the Company’s local entity in Singapore or the form of the notification, he or she should consult with his or her personal legal advisor.

Exit Tax / Deemed Exercise Rule.  The Employee understands and agrees that if the Employee has received Performances Share awards in relation to his or her employment in Singapore, then if, prior to the vesting of the awards, the Employee is 1) a permanent resident of Singapore and leaves Singapore permanently or is transferred out of Singapore; or 2) neither a Singapore citizen nor permanent resident and either ceases 
11
			
	

employment in Singapore or leaves Singapore for any period exceeding 3 months, the Employee will likely be taxed on the Performance Shares on a “deemed exercise” basis, even though they have not yet vested.  The Employee should refer to the separate Stock Award and Option Guide and discuss his or her tax treatment with his or her personal tax advisor.  

UNITED KINGDOM

Settlement of Performance Shares.   Notwithstanding any discretion or anything to the contrary in the Plan, the grant of the Performance Shares does not provide any right for the Employee to receive a cash payment and the Performance Shares will be settled in Shares only.

Tax Acknowledgment.  The following provision supplements paragraph 7 of Appendix A:

The Employee agrees that if the Employee does not pay or the Employer or the Company does not withhold from the Employee the full amount of Tax-Related Items that the Employee owes in connection with the vesting of the Award and/or the acquisition of Shares pursuant to the vesting of the Award, or the release or assignment of the Award for consideration, or the receipt of any other benefit in connection with the Award (the “Taxable Event”)  within ninety (90) days after the Taxable Event, or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (the “Due Date”), then the amount that should have been withheld shall constitute a loan owed by the Employee to the Employer, effective on the Due Date.  The Employee agrees that the loan will bear interest at the official rate of HM Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) and will be immediately due and repayable by the Employee, and the Company and/or the Employer may recover it at any time thereafter by withholding the funds from salary, bonus or any other funds due to the Employee by the Employer, by withholding in Shares issued upon vesting of the Award or from the cash proceeds from the sale of such Shares or by demanding cash or a cheque from the Employee. The Employee also authorizes the Company to withhold the transfer of any Shares unless and until the loan is repaid in full.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Employee is an officer or executive director (as within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply.  In the event that the Employee is an officer or executive director and Tax-Related Items are not collected from or paid by the Employee by the Due Date, the amount of any uncollected Tax-Related Items may constitute a benefit to the Employee on which additional income tax and National Insurance Contributions will  be payable.  The Employee will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime.
