such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer
or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question
whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
ITEM 3.    INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE
The following documents are incorporated by reference in this
registration statement: (i) the latest annual report of The Gap, Inc. (the "Company" or the "Registrant") filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act");

deemed to be incorporated by reference in this registration statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents.
ITEM 4.    DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Inapplicable.
ITEM 5.    INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
Inapplicable.
ITEM 6.    INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
(the "GCL"), as such law currently exists or may be amended so long as any such amendment authorizes action further eliminating or limiting the personal liabilities of directors, a director of the Company shall not be personally liable to
the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.
Under the Bylaws of the Company, each director and officer of the Company is entitled to indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware against all expenses,
liabilities and losses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with any pending, threatened or completed action, suit or proceeding in which he or she may be involved by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a
director or officer of the Company or serving at the request of the Company as director or officer of an entity affiliated with the Company, provided that the standards of conduct specified in the GCL have been satisfied. Section 145 of the GCL
empowers a corporation to indemnify any director or officer, or former director or officer, against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding (other
than a derivative action) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as an agent of another entity, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
1
the Company, and, with respect
to any criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In regard to a derivative action, indemnification may not be made in respect of any matter as to which an officer or director is adjudged to be liable unless
the Delaware Court of Chancery, or the court in which such action was brought, shall determine that such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification.
The Company carries insurance policies indemnifying its directors and officers against liabilities arising from certain acts
performed by them in their respective capacities as such. The policies also provide for reimbursement of the Company for any sums it may be required or permitted to pay pursuant to applicable law to its directors and officers by way of
indemnification against liabilities incurred by them in their capacities as such.

ITEM 9.    UNDERTAKINGS
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
2
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration
statement;
Provided, however,
that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by
the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective
amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a
post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer
or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question
whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
