A. Commencing *, Gap may initiate a benchmark analysis of (1) *, (2) *, (3) *, and/or (4) * (individually each, and collectively all, referred to as “Aggregated Service(s)”). For purposes of this Section 8 (Benchmarking), *. Supplier will provide, as reasonably requested by Gap in order to facilitate a meaningful and effective benchmark analysis, a detailed charge(s) breakdown of the Aggregated Services subject to the benchmark analysis into the elements of *. Additionally, as may be required to normalize the benchmark analysis, the fixed price component of the Annual Services Charge set forth in Table C-1 (Annual Services Charge) shall be allocated on a prorated basis to each of the Aggregated Service(s). Such allocation will be accomplished by dividing the then current Contract Year Charges for the applicable Aggregated Service(s) subject to the benchmark analysis by the total Annual Services Charge for the then current Contract Year to obtain the percentage of the fixed price Annual Services Charge to add to the Aggregated Service(s) in order to establish the then current total price for the Aggregated Service(s) subject to the benchmark analysis. Gap agrees not to duplicate a benchmarking for Aggregated Services within any * period. Gap will select and contract with an independent third party that routinely provides benchmarking as identified on Exhibit D.21 (Approved Benchmarkers) or as otherwise mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties (the “Benchmarker”) to objectively perform such benchmarking.

B. Each Party shall have the right to review the benchmarking procedures to be utilized by the Benchmarker. If and to the extent Gap and Supplier agree on specific directions, processes or methodologies to be provided to or applied by the Benchmarker, the Benchmarker shall be provided such directions and instructed to apply such processes or methodologies.

D. The Benchmarker shall have no financial incentive in the outcome of its analysis. The Benchmarker shall compare (using data from a representative sampling of contracts) the quality, resource utilization, and charges of the Aggregated Service(s) against the quality, resource utilization and charges of information technology service providers performing similar services to ensure that Gap is obtaining pricing and levels of service that are competitive with market prices and service levels, given the nature, volume, performance standards and type of Aggregated Service(s) provided by Supplier hereunder (“Benchmarking”). The prices established as a result of the Benchmarking shall be the “Benchmark”. In making this comparison, the Benchmarker shall insure its comparison accounts for vendor financing and other factors including: (i) whether vendor transition-in charges are paid by the customer as incurred or amortized over the term of the agreement; (ii) the extent to which vendor pricing includes the purchase of customer’s existing assets and on what basis; and (iii) the extent to which vendor pricing includes the cost of acquiring future assets. The Benchmarker shall identify such factors considered and the methodology used to account for such factors in its comparison.

8.2 Benchmark Adjustments

A. The Benchmarker shall issue a preliminary written report reflecting its findings. The Parties will review the preliminary benchmark analysis report and provide any comments in writing to the Benchmarker and the other Party within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the analysis. The Benchmarker will be instructed to consider any such comments received within such fifteen (15) day period and, after such consideration and making any appropriate adjustments, to issue a final written report. The Benchmarker may accept or reject the comments of either Party in its sole discretion.

B. In the event that the Parties agree to the Benchmark result and Supplier’s prices for the Aggregated Service(s) is priced higher than the Benchmark, then Supplier shall either:

(1) in the event Supplier’s prices for the Aggregated Service(s) exceed the Benchmark by * or less, then Supplier shall reduce its prices for the Aggregated Service(s) down to the * in the next billing cycle. “*” shall mean the amount equal to * over Supplier’s prices for the Aggregated Service(s). For example, if the Benchmark for the Aggregated Services exceeds the then current Supplier Charges for the Aggregated Services by *, then Supplier shall reduce its prices for the Aggregated Services down by *; or

(2) in the event Supplier’s prices for the Aggregated Service(s) exceed the Benchmark by more than *, Supplier shall reduce its prices for the Aggregated Service(s) (i) down by * in the next billing cycle (ii) *. Within * of receiving the

Supplier’s proposal must be accompanied with sufficient detail to demonstrate to Gap what specific pricing metrics will be affected and how and may include discussion of technology architecture issues. The Parties shall structure and support the pricing discussions to proceed rapidly with the objective of completing such discussions within * of the date of receiving the Benchmarking. Failure of the Parties to agree on all pricing adjustments to be implemented within * of the date of receiving the Benchmarking, shall be deemed a rejection of Supplier’s proposal to reduce prices by Gap, unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing.

C. Should the Parties agree to adjust pricing as provided herein, such adjustments shall be *.

To the extent Supplier identifies methods of optimizing use of Gap facilities with regard to Supplier’s use of such facilities for delivering the Services (e.g., more efficient use of floor space, more efficient usage of power and air conditioning) it will advise Gap of such recommendations.

10.9 Physical Security

Gap is responsible for the physical security of the Gap Sites; provided, that Supplier will be responsible for access and control of the areas that Supplier is using in performance of this Agreement and as more specifically required pursuant to the Gap Policies and Procedures.

Subject to applicable security requirements that are provided in writing to Supplier or posted at a Gap Site, Gap will permit Supplier Personnel to use all employee facilities (e.g., parking, cafeteria, and common facilities) at the Gap Sites that are generally made available to the employees of Gap or Gap Authorized Users. Supplier Personnel will not be permitted to use such employee facilities designated by Gap for the exclusive use of certain Gap or Gap Authorized User employees.

10.11 Use of Gap Sites

Unless Supplier obtains Gap’s prior written agreement, which may be withheld by Gap in its sole discretion, Supplier shall use the Gap Sites, and the Gap Equipment and Software located therein, only to provide the Services to Gap and the Authorized Users. Gap reserves the right in its sole discretion to relocate a Gap Site (or the space within a Gap Site) from which the Services are then being provided by Supplier to another location; provided that, in such event, Gap will provide Supplier with ninety (90) days advance written notice and with comparable space in the new location. In advance of a Material Move, Supplier and Gap shall identify one-time or recurring additional or reduced costs or expense associated with such relocation, and agree upon methods of mitigating and equitable allocation of such cost and/or expenses.

When the Gap Sites are no longer required for the performance of the Services, Supplier shall return such Gap Sites to Gap in substantially the same conditions as when Supplier began use of the Gap Sites, subject to reasonable wear and tear. Nothing in this Section 10.11 (Use of Gap Sites) is intended to pre-determine whether Supplier services relating to a Material Move constitute a Non-Service Catalog Item or are included within the Services.

Gap also reserves the right to direct Supplier to cease using all or part of the space in a Gap Site from which the Services are then being provided by Supplier and to thereafter use such space for its own purposes. In such event, Gap shall reimburse Supplier for any reasonable incremental costs incurred by Supplier as a result of such direction; provided that such direction is not expressly contemplated in this Agreement and that Supplier notifies Gap of such additional incremental costs and uses commercially reasonable efforts to minimize such costs.

10.12 Damage to Gap Facilities, Buildings, or Grounds

Supplier shall repair, or cause to be repaired, at its own cost, any and all damage to Gap Sites caused by Supplier or Supplier Personnel. Such repairs shall be made immediately after Supplier has become aware of such damage, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the occurrence. If Supplier fails to make timely repairs, Gap may make any necessary repairs. All costs incurred by Gap, as determined by Gap, for such repairs shall be repaid by Supplier by cash payment upon demand, or without limitation of all Gap’s other rights and remedies provided by law or under this Agreement, Gap may deduct such costs from any amounts due to Supplier from Gap under this Agreement.

10.13 Use of Supplier Service Locations

During the Term, Supplier will provide to Gap at no charge (i) temporary access to and reasonable use of Supplier Service Locations, and (ii) temporary access to reasonable work/conference space at Supplier Service Locations for Gap to exercise its rights under this Agreement, subject to Gap’s compliance with Supplier’s posted security policies and procedures while at such facilities.

12. Communications Systems and Access to Information

Supplier understands that Supplier may receive access to Gap’s computers and electronic communications systems, including voicemail, email, customer databases, and internet and intranet systems (for purposes of this paragraph, “systems”). Such systems are intended for legitimate business use related to Gap’s business. Supplier acknowledges that Supplier does not have any expectation of privacy as between Supplier and Gap in the use of or access to Gap’s systems and that all communications made with such systems by or on behalf of Supplier are subject to Gap’s scrutiny, use and disclosure (subject to the protections of Proprietary or Confidential Information herein), in Gap’s sole discretion.

13. Non-Exclusive Relationship

13.1 Non-Exclusivity

Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary, this Agreement shall be non-exclusive in nature, and Gap shall at all times have the right to perform any of the Services itself or to contract with a third party to perform any service included in the Services or other obligations of Supplier in this Agreement (“Migrated Service(s)”). In the event Gap contracts with a third party to perform any Migrated Service or performs such Migrated Service itself, Supplier shall reasonably cooperate with Gap and any such third party, including providing: (1) the necessary information related to the Migrated Services that Gap reasonably requests to enable Gap to draft a request for proposal(s) relating to the Migrated Services and to provide existing information to support due diligence for recipients of such request for proposal; (2) access to Supplier Service Locations being used by Supplier to provide the Services as necessary for Gap or a third party to survey the current environment being used to deliver the Migrated Service(s); (3) existing written requirements, standards, and policies for systems operations so that any developments of such third party may be operated by Supplier; (4) assistance and support services to

Gap Confidential and Proprietary Information

Gap or such third party to the extent related to the Services; (5) to the extent permitted by the applicable third party agreements, access to the Gap IT Environment in connection with such Migrated Service; and (6) such information regarding the operating environment, system constraints and other operating parameters related to the Services as a person with reasonable commercial skills and expertise would find reasonably necessary for Gap or a third party to perform the Migrated Service. Gap shall require any such third party to comply with Supplier’s reasonable requirements regarding operations, confidentiality, and security and Supplier shall not be required to disclose any confidential information other than as necessary to comply with the obligations of this Section, but in no event shall Supplier be required to disclose information of a Supplier customer (other than Gap) or any Supplier cost data.

13.2 Multi-Vendor Environment

Supplier acknowledges that it will be delivering the Services in a multi-vendor environment, with Gap and the Gap Third Party Vendor(s) providing services relating to the Gap IT Environment. Effective operation of such an environment requires not only the cooperation among all service providers, including Supplier, but also collaboration in addressing service-related issues that may cross over from one service area or provider to another and related to the Services (“Cross-Over Issues”). As part of the Services, Supplier will actively provide and support tasks associated with operating and maintaining a collaborative approach to Cross-Over Issues in the same manner as if the Supplier Service relevant to the Cross-Over Issue was being provided in-house by Gap rather than by Supplier.

Supplier shall use commercially reasonable efforts to identify all work efforts and deliverables of which Supplier has knowledge, whether performed by Supplier, Subcontractors, Supplier Third Party Vendors, Gap, or the Gap Third Party Vendor(s) that may impact the delivery of the Services (the “Service Interdependency”).

This Gap Authorized User Satisfaction Survey shall be mutually agreed upon by the Parties, and shall be administered as determined by the selected organization and shall be the initial baseline for measurement of user satisfaction improvement described in Section 16.2 (Gap Authorized User Satisfaction Survey).

Gap Confidential and Proprietary Information

16.2 Gap Authorized User Satisfaction Survey

Every six (6) months during the first four (4) years of the Term and annually thereafter (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties), an independent third party selected by Gap shall conduct a Gap Authorized User Satisfaction Survey for each Gap Service Location and/or Gap Site. The survey shall, at a minimum, cover at least the following classes of users: (1) sample of end users of the Services and (2) all senior management of Gap. The content, scope, and method of the survey shall be consistent with the baseline Gap Authorized User Satisfaction Survey conducted pursuant to Section 16.1 (Baseline Gap Authorized User Satisfaction Survey) and the timing of the above surveys are subject to Gap’s Approval. It is the goal of Supplier to increase Gap Authorized User satisfaction for each class of Gap Authorized Users. The baseline for determining the initial gap shall be the results of the surveys conducted pursuant to Section 16.1 (Baseline Gap Authorized User Satisfaction Survey). The baseline for determining subsequent gaps will be the results of the Gap Authorized User Satisfaction Survey compared to the immediately prior Gap Authorized User Satisfaction Survey. Supplier agrees that increasing measured Gap Authorized User satisfaction shall be a key performance incentive for compensation for key executives assigned to Gap’s account. The costs for all Gap Authorized User Satisfaction Surveys shall be borne solely by Gap. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Gap Authorized User Satisfaction Survey fails to meet the applicable Service Level, the cost of all surveys following such failure shall be borne solely by Supplier until the Service Level failure has been remedied by Supplier (after a survey Service Level failure is remedied Gap again shall bear the costs of the subsequent survey); provided, however, that the first Gap Authorized User Satisfaction Survey immediately following any Service Level failure shall be conducted no earlier than six (6) months, and no later than seven (7) months, after such failure.

Supplier agrees that all Supplier Personnel assigned to performing this Agreement must have experience or suitable training and skills in the areas in which they are responsible for performing the tasks to which they will be assigned under this Agreement. In the event that the actions or inactions of Supplier Personnel create additional work in connection with the performance of the Services that would have otherwise been unnecessary in the absence of such action or inaction, Supplier shall perform all such additional work at no additional charge to Gap, unless such action or inaction is demonstrated by Supplier to be at the direction of Gap. In addition, Supplier agrees that it will take all commercially reasonable steps to assure continuity over time of the membership of the group constituting Supplier Personnel.

(a) Except as set forth in Sections 26.5B(2)(b) and 26.5B(2)(d) below, Gap shall be responsible for the payment of all Service Taxes and new Service Taxes. In the event there is a new Service Tax that is not clearly allocated to Gap or Supplier under this Section 26.5B(2), Gap and Supplier shall work together, in good faith, to reach agreement regarding the responsibility for such new Service Tax. If Gap and Supplier are unable to reach agreement with respect to such new Service Tax, Supplier shall be responsible for and pay the amount of such tax. Supplier shall correctly invoice all applicable taxes at the time of purchase and if necessary, shall reissue any invoice, along with the appropriate tax, if it is determined, subsequent to the actual purchase date, that tax should have applied. Except as provided in Section 26.5B(2)(c)(vi), Supplier shall not provide tax-only invoices.

(b) Supplier shall be responsible for any Service Taxes and new Service Taxes on (i) Equipment or Software, or (ii) real property and/or other tangible or intangible property, in each case as to (i) and (ii), (a) it owns (or leases or rents from a third party) or (b) for which it is financially responsible under the Financial Responsibility Matrix attached as Exhibit C.7 (Financial Responsibility Matrix).

C. Cooperation; Invoices

The Parties agree to reasonably cooperate with each other to enable each to more accurately determine its own tax liability and to minimize such liability to the extent legally permissible. Supplier invoices shall separately state the amounts of any taxes (by taxing jurisdiction) Supplier is properly collecting from Gap pursuant to the terms hereof. Each Party will make available to the other Party any resale certificates, information regarding out-of-state or out-of-country sales or use of equipment, materials, or services, and other exemption certificates or information reasonably requested by the other Party. Specifically, Gap requires the following:

The total amount invoiced for Services will include any and all freight, duty, and taxes, with the exception of the following items, which, if applicable, must be identified and listed separately on Supplier invoice (i) any U.S. state or local sales or use tax imposed on the transaction; and (ii) any value-added taxes, whether based on gross receipts, income, or consumption and regardless of what such value-added taxes might be called, imposed by taxing authorities outside the United States of America (“VAT Taxes”).

In addition to, and cumulative of all other remedies in law, at equity and provided under this Agreement or this Section 26.7 (Withhold Remedy), in the event Supplier is in default of a material duty or obligation under this Agreement and it fails to cure the default within fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notice of default from Gap setting forth with specificity the nature of the default of a material duty or obligation and the requested remedy or cure, Gap may, without waiving any other rights under this Agreement, elect to withhold from the payments due to Supplier under this Agreement during the period beginning with the 16th day after Supplier’s receipt of notice of default, and ending on the date that the default has been cured to the reasonable satisfaction of Gap, but in no event shall the amount of such withhold be greater than the Charges associated with the specific Services which Gap alleged are in default or the Services that Supplier is not providing. Upon curing of the default by Supplier, Gap will cause the withheld payments to be paid to Supplier, without interest. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the amount Gap may withhold at any one time shall not in the aggregate for all disputes exceed an amount equal to Supplier’s fees and charges for the * immediately preceding such withhold (the “Aggregate Withhold Amount”). Gap shall pay to Supplier any disputed fees and charges in excess of the Aggregate Withhold Amount, provided that Gap shall retain any and all rights to contest its obligation to pay to Supplier such fee or charge.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge that nothing in the foregoing sentence is intended to waive or restrict Supplier’s express representations, warranties or obligations set forth in this Agreement.

30. Remedy Waiver

This Agreement utilizes a number of “interim remedies” (including service level remedies, dispute resolution processes, payment withholds, and credit assessment mechanisms) to assist the Parties in effectively addressing performance issues that may arise during the Term. Gap deems the various remedies as essential tools to its management of this Agreement. Nevertheless, Supplier’s effective ongoing performance is the critical behavior such remedies are designed to achieve.

Consequently, recognizing that circumstances may arise in which the imposition of the interim remedies as structured may not fairly reflect corrective and other efforts made by Supplier, subject to Section 43 (Waiver), Gap’s Chief Information Officer, may, in such individual’s sole discretion waive, in an individual occurrence, Gap’s right to use, or collect a credit resulting from, such interim remedies. Factors that will be considered by Gap’s Chief Information Officer in assessing whether to waive an interim remedy include: (1) Supplier’s proactive involvement in identifying a problem before operational impacts are manifested; (2) the timing, quality, and accuracy of communications from Supplier relating to a problem; (3) the speed with which corrective actions are taken and the problem is fixed; (4) the quality of Supplier’s root cause analysis and the likelihood that appropriate steps have been taken to prevent a reoccurrence of the problem; (5) the quality of Supplier’s overall performance at the time the remedy right accrues and during the Term; and (6) the impact of other causal factors, including Gap’s actions or inaction relating to the problem.

Any waiver under this Section must be in writing, expressly state that it is a waiver under this Section, and be signed by Gap’s Chief Information Officer and the Gap Infrastructure Partnership Executive.

42. Amendment of Agreement

No alteration, amendment, or modification of the terms of this Agreement shall be valid or effective unless in writing and signed by Supplier and Gap.

43. Waiver

All waivers under this Agreement shall be in writing in order to be effective. No waiver by a Party of any breach of this Agreement or waiver of any warranty, representation, or other provision hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other breach, warranty, representation, or provision (whether preceding or succeeding, and whether or not of the same or similar nature), and no acceptance of performance by a Party after any breach by the other Party shall be deemed to be a waiver of any breach of this Agreement or of any representation, warranty, or other provision, whether or not the Party accepting performance knows of such breach at the time of acceptance. No failure or delay by a Party to exercise any right it may have by reason of the default of the other Party shall operate as a waiver of default or modification of this Agreement or shall prevent the exercise of any right of the non-defaulting Party under this Agreement.

44. Independent Contractor

Supplier acknowledges that it is at all times acting as an independent contractor under this Agreement and except as specifically provided herein, not as an agent, employee, or partner of Gap. Each Party agrees to be solely responsible for all matters relating to compensation of its employees, including, compliance with local, state, federal, and foreign laws governing its personnel, including, workers’ compensation, Social Security, withholding and payment of any and all federal, state and local personal income taxes, disability insurance, unemployment, and any other taxes for such persons, including any related employer assessment or contributions required by law, and all other regulations governing such matters, and the payment of all salary, vacation and other employee benefits. At each Party’s expense as described herein, such Party agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the other Party, its officers, agents, employees, and successors in interest from and against any claim, action, proceeding, liability, loss, damage, cost, or expense, including, attorneys’ fees as provided herein paid to a third party arising out of such Party’s alleged failure to pay, when due, all such taxes and obligations (collectively referred to for purposes of this Section 44 as “Employment Claim(s)”). The indemnifying Party shall pay to the other Party any and all amounts that a court finally awards to a third party or that Supplier agrees to in settlement with a third party of any such Employment Claim as provided in Section 35.7 (General Indemnity).

45. Subcontractors

45.1 Approval Required

Gap has relied, in entering into this Agreement, on the reputation of, and on obtaining the personal performance of, Supplier itself and Supplier Approved Subcontractors listed in Exhibit D.23 (Subcontractors). Consequently, no performance of this Agreement, or any additional portion thereof, shall be subcontracted by Supplier without the prior written consent of Gap. Any attempt by Supplier to subcontract any performance, obligation, or responsibility under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of Gap, shall be null and void and shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the above, Supplier may, in the ordinary course of business, subcontract (i) for third party services or products that are not a material portion of the Services, that are

Gap Confidential and Proprietary Information

101

not exclusively dedicated to Gap and that do not include regular direct contact with Gap or Gap Affiliate personnel or the performance of Services at Gap sites, or (ii) with temporary personnel firms for the provision of temporary contract labor (collectively, “Shared Subcontractors”); provided, that such Shared Subcontractors possess the training and experience, competence and skill to perform the work in a skilled and professional manner. Gap shall have no approval right with respect to such Shared Subcontractors. If, however, Gap expresses dissatisfaction with the services of a Shared Subcontractor, Supplier shall work in good faith to resolve Gap’s concerns on a mutually acceptable basis and, at Gap request, replace such Shared Subcontractor at no additional cost to Gap.

45.2 Request for Approval

If Supplier desires to subcontract any portion of its performance, obligations, or responsibilities under this Agreement, Supplier shall make a written request to Gap for written Approval to enter into the particular subcontract. Supplier’s request to Gap shall include:

(a) The reason(s) for the particular subcontract;

(b) A detailed description of the work to be performed by the proposed Subcontractor;

(c) Identification of the proposed Subcontractor and an explanation of why and how the proposed Subcontractor was selected; and

(d) Any other information reasonably requested by Gap.

45.3 Review of Request

Gap will review Supplier’s request to subcontract and determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, whether or not to consent to such request on a case-by-case basis.

45.4 Supplier Obligations Remain Unchanged

Supplier shall remain responsible to Gap for any and all performance required under this Agreement by Supplier or its approved Subcontractors, including, the obligation to properly supervise, coordinate, and perform all work required under the Services, and no subcontract shall bind or purport to bind Gap or excuse Supplier of performance. Supplier shall be solely liable and responsible for any and all payments and other compensation to, and the performance of, all Subcontractors and their officers, employees, agents, and independent contractors. All agreements between Supplier and any Subcontractors shall include provisions at least as favorable to Gap as those contained in this Agreement.

45.5 Approval of Subcontractor Personnel/Termination

In the event Gap consents to any subcontracting, such consent shall be subject to Gap’s right to give prior and continuing approval of any and all Subcontractor personnel providing services under such subcontract. Supplier shall assure that any Subcontractor personnel, excluding Shared Subcontractors, not reasonably approved in writing by Gap shall be immediately removed from the provision of any services under the particular subcontract or that other action is taken as requested by Gap.

102

Further, in the event that Gap consents to any subcontracting, such consent shall be subject to Gap’s right to require the removal of a Subcontractor, in whole or in part, at any time upon written notice to Supplier upon the occurrence of a material breach of this Agreement, provided such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days of such notice. Gap shall not be liable or responsible in any way to Supplier, to any Subcontractor, or to any officers, employees, or agents of Supplier or any Subcontractor, for any claims, demands, damages, liabilities, losses, costs, or expenses, including, defense costs and legal, accounting and other expert, consulting or professional fees, in any way arising from or related to Gap’s exercise of such rights.

50. Electronic Transfer of Intellectual Property

Whenever practical, Supplier agrees to deliver Software deliverable under this Agreement including any updates or patches, via download, File Transfer Protocol (FTP), or through the use of Supplier’s copy of the tangible software media. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3.3 (Documentation), upon completion of such delivery, Supplier shall remove the tangible software media and not provide any of the tangible software media to Gap.

1.1

Service Request Call Handling and Technical Call Screening

Gap Store Support will provide a help desk to receive the initial call from users reporting problems with Covered Machines or seeking technical support with respect to Covered Machines. In the case of calls reporting Problems with Covered Machines, Gap Store Support will perform the initial Problem determination, including those tasks in Section 7, Gap Retained Responsibilities, and any responsibilities specifically identified as a Gap responsibility as part of the Technical Call Screening Process technical call screening process mutually developed and agreed to pursuant to Section 1.2 (Customer Replaceable Units (CRU)) of this Attachment A. If Gap Store Support requires technical support from Supplier to assist in resolving a reported Problem or determines that On-site Break/Fix Services will be necessary to resolve the Problem, Gap Store Support will place a Service Request to Supplier indicating the Priority Response Level requested. Supplier will provide the Maintenance Services as described in this Attachment A and the Agreement to resolve such Problem.

Supplier’s call placement system shall be available to receive Gap Service Request calls (and conduct technical call screening and remote Problem resolution) *. In addition, electronic access to Supplier’s call placement system and the * to Gap’s current electronic trouble ticket system shall be available (i.e., on-line and available to accept data input or entry) *, subject to the Supplier Call Center Availability Service Level in Exhibit B (Service Level Agreement). If Supplier’s call placement system, electronic access to Supplier’s call placement system or the * to Gap’s current electronic trouble ticket system are unavailable to a degree that causes disruptions to Gap that Gap reasonably believes to be significant to Gap’s business, Gap may so notify Supplier, in which event Supplier shall promptly take appropriate remedial actions to correct the issue or provide a workaround that is reasonably acceptable to Gap.

Supplier shall provide Gap at least twenty-four (24) hours advance notice of scheduled maintenance downtime. In addition, Supplier shall provide Gap prompt notice of any emergency maintenance downtime and any other outages.

Gap and Supplier shall work jointly to implement changes to the Technical Call Screening Process (for Covered Machines other than *) to enhance the effectiveness of the Problem determination process, with the objective of reducing the number of instances in which a Supplier CSR is dispatched unnecessarily to perform On-site Break/Fix Services (the “Technical Call Screening Process”). Any change to the Technical Call Screening Process from such joint efforts shall be approved by Gap prior to implementation by Supplier.

Gap will participate in the technical call screening for at least * percent (*%) of Service Requests, provided, however, Gap shall retain the right, in its reasonable discretion, to terminate any such call(s) and request a dispatch.

Supplier and Gap shall review and evaluate the effectiveness and cost-efficiency of the Technical Call Screening Process at * intervals during the first Year and * thereafter and shall work together in good faith to determine whether it should be continued and, if it should, what changes, if any, should be made to the process going forward to enhance its effectiveness and cost-efficiency for both Parties.

1.2

Customer Replaceable Units (CRU)

On a case by case basis Gap shall decide whether a problem is reasonably resolvable through use of CRU. For reported Problems determined by Gap to be reasonably resolvable through use of a CRU, Supplier will ship the applicable CRU to the designated Covered Location in accordance with the applicable Service Levels set forth in Exhibit B (Service Level Agreement), at which point Gap store personnel will be responsible for removing the defective CRU from the malfunctioning Covered Machine, replacing the defective CRU with the replacement CRU provided by Supplier and, unless otherwise instructed by Supplier, using commercially reasonable efforts to return the defective CRU to Supplier within * after Gap’s receipt of the replacement CRU. Gap shall not be entitled to identify a Problem as resolvable through use of a CRU unless the underlying part is listed on Table C-12.1 to Exhibit C. Supplier may update Table C-12.1 to Exhibit C from time to time with Gap’s approval which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Replaced CRU parts shall be returned as specified above employing the process set forth in Section 7 (Gap Retained Responsibilities) of this Attachment A below. If Gap has not returned a replaced CRU part to Supplier within * of shipment by Supplier of the replacement CRU, Supplier may invoice Gap Store Support for the replaced CRU at the amount set forth on Table C-12.1 to Exhibit C; however, if Gap returns the replaced CRU within * after receipt of the replacement CRU from Supplier, Supplier shall credit Gap for any amounts already invoiced. Supplier will notify both the store and Gap Store Support within * of the replacement CRU shipping if the replaced part has not been received by Supplier. Supplier shall continue to provide to Gap “Non-returnable Parts as needed throughout the Term of the Agreement. Gap shall not incur any charge for Non-returnable Parts and the Non-returnable Parts will not be required to be returned to Supplier.

1.3

On-site Break/Fix Services

The type of Maintenance Services for which Gap has subscribed hereunder entitles Gap to specify the Priority Response Level it requires for On-site Break/Fix Services on a Service Request by Service Request basis, based on the nature and severity of the reported Problem. Descriptions of the different Priority Response Levels and their respective timeframes for On-site Arrival and Problem Resolution Periods are contained in Exhibit B (Service Level Agreement). Gap will specify the Priority Response Level it requires during the Service Request call. If Gap does not specify a Priority Response Level during the Service Request call, Supplier will consider the request to be Urgent.

Supplier will dispatch its CSR(s) for arrival on-site at the affected Covered Location in accordance with the applicable timeframe for On-site Arrival as set forth in Exhibit B (Service Level Agreement).

Upon arriving at a Gap location, the CSR will inform the Gap store manager on duty of his or her presence and obtain his or her consent to perform the On-site Break/Fix Service. If the manager on duty consents the CSR will carry out the On-site Break/Fix Service in accordance with the applicable timeframe for Problem Resolution Service Level set forth in Exhibit B (Service Level Agreement). If the Gap manager on duty does not consent, the CSR will contact Gap Store Support for a final decision about whether to proceed with the On-site Break/Fix Service or to defer it to a Scheduled Call and Gap Store Support shall communicate this decision to the CSR and the Gap manager on duty. If Gap Store Support defers the On-site Break/Fix Service, that Service Call shall be excluded from the measurement of Supplier’s compliance with the Service Levels for the affected month.

The Supplier CSR(s) will reload or reconfigure, as necessary, any Software from the appropriate backup media, if available and provided by Gap, to restore the Covered Machine(s) so that it functions in accordance with its Specifications provided that this work is required due to a Covered Machine malfunction.

If requested by Gap Store Support personnel the Supplier CSR(s) will stand by on site for up to one hour upon completion of the On-site Break/Fix Service for the CSR to call Gap Store Support and for Gap to verify the successful completion of the On-site Break/Fix Service provided Gap promptly after receipt of the call from the CSR (i) verifies successful completion of the On-site Break/Fix Service, or (ii) informs the CSR that the On-site Break/Fix Service has not been successful. If (a) the CSR leaves the Gap site prior to Gap’s verification of successful completion, (b) the original Problem reported remained unresolved, and (c) Gap places another Service Request with respect to that Problem, then Supplier will use the same trouble ticket for second and any subsequent Service Requests with respect to the same original Problem on the same Covered Machine and the initial Service Request shall be considered unresolved until the Problem is in fact Resolved.


Exhibit A.3.1		Gap Confidential and Proprietary Information		Page 13 of 59

The Supplier CSR(s) will report to Supplier and to * the device type, model, serial number and Covered Location of any de-installed * and replacement * installed as part of the On-site Break/Fix Service. An IBM Branded Covered Machine that replaces another of the same model shall retain the same serial number as appropriate. Supplier will record the actual On-site Arrival Period and Problem Resolution Period in Supplier’s call tracking system, which will electronically communicate that information to Gap’s problem management system.

1.4

^*	Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with the Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.


Exhibit B		Gap/IBM Proprietary and Confidential Information		Page 3 of 12

charges for the month following the month in which the Service Level Default(s) giving rise to such credit(s) occurred. For example, the amount of Service Level Credits payable (*) with respect to Service Level Defaults occurring in August shall be set forth in the invoice for the Monthly Charges (as set forth in Exhibit C (Fees and Resource Baseline) to the Agreement) issued in September. Although Service Level Credits shall be shown on each monthly invoice, the credits will be payable to Gap on a * as described in *.

4.7

For Service Level Credits that are incurred for performance during *, such amounts as calculated above will be increased by applying *.

4.8

Notwithstanding that Service Level Credits for Peak Period will be credited on a * basis, during Peak Period all corrective action steps, including those in Section 12 (Improvement Plan for Service Levels) of this Service Level Exhibit, and Section 7.3 of the Agreement (Root-Cause Analysis and Resolution) shall be initiated upon identification of the Service Level Default. During peak periods, Supplier shall initiate root cause analysis within *, providing preliminary problem assessments, emergency workarounds, and proposed alternatives for permanent fixes where they are available and reporting an updated status with each * report.

Except as to Service Level Credits for performance during the peak period, which Supplier shall not have * opportunities and will be deemed Unrelieved Service Level Credits, Supplier shall have * opportunities with respect to Service Level Credits as follows:

5.1

Within * after each Contract Year, Supplier shall * to Gap that will include Supplier’s * in that *.

5.2

If, during the preceding Contract Year, Supplier * in effect for such Critical Service Level for that Contract Year, Supplier shall be * any Service Level Credits assessed during the preceding Contract Year for such Critical Service Level.

5.3

^*	Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with the Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.


Exhibit B		Gap/IBM Proprietary and Confidential Information		Page 4 of 12

will be considered * for each Contract Year *. The monetary amounts associated with Unrelieved Service Level Credits shall be credited to Gap on the monthly invoice reflecting charges for the first month of the Contract Year immediately following the Contract Year in which such Unrelieved Service Level Credits occurred.

5.4

If the Agreement is terminated prior to the end of the Term, the foregoing process shall be undertaken with respect to the portion of the Contract Year during which the Agreement was in effect.

5.5

The amount of any credits that have accrued, but have not been issued, as of the expiration or termination of this Agreement shall be paid to Gap within thirty (30) days of the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

5.6

For the avoidance of doubt, the ^* methodology for sections B.1.6 (1)-(4) and B.1.8 (1) and (2), is based upon attainment of a numeric threshold, pursuant to the formulas set forth in Exhibit B.3 (Service Level Methodology), and not attainment of a percentage threshold.

6.	PRESUMPTIVE SERVICE LEVELS

6.1

Presumptive Service Levels are specified in Exhibit B.1 (Service Level Matrix) for various Services. In cases where insufficient data currently exist, to determine the appropriate standard for service, a Measurement Study Period will be used to establish an appropriate standard. Supplier will begin measuring its performance against all Presumptive Service Levels on the agreed upon date following the Initiation Date for a * Measurement Study Period, unless a shorter or longer Measurement Study Period is otherwise agreed upon by the Parties in writing. Should it be determined that a * Measurement Study Period is not indicative of Gap’s normal business cycle, Gap and Supplier will mutually define another period as the Measurement Study Period.

6.2

The Parties shall monitor and analyze Supplier’s performance as against the Presumptive Service Levels prior to the date such Service Levels become Set Service Levels, and such Service Levels shall not apply during such period.

6.3

During the agreed upon Measurement Study Period, Supplier will use the tools set forth on Exhibit B.3 (Measuring Tools and Methodologies). Supplier shall bear all costs and expenses associated with such tools (including the maintenance and modification of such tools), as listed in Exhibit D.8 (Existing Agreements) to the Agreement, unless otherwise set forth in the Agreement as a Gap responsibility.

6.4

During such period, the Parties shall meet and in good faith discuss the propriety of the Presumptive Service Levels given all relevant factors

^*	Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with the Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.


Exhibit B		Gap/IBM Proprietary and Confidential Information		Page 5 of 12

including Gap’s reasonable business needs; performance during such period; applicable industry standards; performance prior to the Initiation Date; non-recurring (or remedied) events responsible for performance degradation prior to and after the Initiation Date; and steps either Party has taken, or could take, to improve Service Level performance.

6.5

At the end of the Measurement Study Period, and with the written agreement of the Parties, Presumptive Service Levels will be changed to Set Service Levels. If the * of performance achieved by Supplier during the applicable Measurement Study Period is *, the Set Service Level will be established at the *. For example, if the Presumptive Service Level is *, and Supplier averages * performance during the Measurement Study Period, the Set Service Level shall be established at *.

6.6

To the extent that ^*, such Presumptive Service Levels shall be adjusted as mutually agreed in writing by the Parties and as adjusted shall become a Set Service Level.

6.7

If, with respect to any Presumptive Service Level, the Parties do not agree (a) to change a Presumptive Service Level to a Set Service Level pursuant to Section 6.5 above, or (b) on an adjustment thereto during the Measurement Study Period, such Service Level shall become a Set Service Level as provided in Section 9 (Process For Additions and Deletions of Service Levels) below.

7.	SET SERVICE LEVELS

7.1

Set Service Levels shall be identified as a Set Service Level in Exhibit B.1 (Service Level Matrix).

7.2

Supplier and Gap shall observe and enforce each Service Level identified as a Set Service Level in Exhibit B.1 (Service Level Matrix) as of the first day of the second full calendar month of the Term. In addition, for each Service Level identified as a Presumptive Service Level, from and after the first day of the first calendar month following the end of the Measurement Study Period identified in Exhibit B.1 (Service level Matrix), the Presumptive Service Level as it may have been modified prior to such date by mutual written agreement of the Parties, shall become a Set Service Level.

New Performance Categories, Critical Service Levels and Service Level Objectives and assigned Service Level Credits may be added, deleted, substituted, or modified by Gap as specified in this Service Level Exhibit during the Term, provided, Supplier’s total Service Level Credit At Risk Amount is not increased.

Unless otherwise mutually agreed, Gap will send written notice to Supplier at least ^* prior to the date that additions or deletions to Performance Categories, or additions or deletions to Service Levels are to be effective. Unless otherwise mutually agreed, Gap will send written notice to Supplier at least * prior to the date that the elevation of a Service Level Objective to a Critical Service Level, or modifications to the Service Level Credit allocations for any Critical Service Level(s) are to be effective. In the case of written notice of either additions or deletions to Performance Categories; additions or deletions to Service Levels; the elevation of a Service Level Objective to a Critical Service Level; or modifications to the Service Level Credit allocations for any Critical Service Level(s), *. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the duration of the Transition Period (as detailed in Exhibit D.15 (Transition-In Plan) to the Agreement), Service Level Objectives may be elevated to Critical Service Levels without regard to the * referenced above.

9.	PROCESS FOR ADDITIONS AND DELETIONS OF SERVICE LEVELS

Gap may add Critical Service Levels, Performance categories, and Service Levels by sending written notice in accordance with Section 8 (Additions, Deletions, Modifications and Notice Requirements).

9.1

Additions. Gap may add Service Levels in accordance with this Section 9 (Process for Additions and Deletions of Service Levels) by providing written notice in accordance with Section 8 (Additions, Deletions, Modifications and Notice Requirements). Expected Service Levels and Floor Service Level commitments associated with added Service Levels will be computed as follows:

(a)

Where Gap is elevating a Service Level Objective to Critical Service Level status, the Expected Service Level and Floor Service Level shall be as set forth in Exhibit B.1 (Service Level Matrix).

(b)

In all other situations, where at least * of Supplier-provided service measurements exist for a particular Service that is being provided by Supplier, the Parties agree that the Expected Service Level shall be defined as the average of such service measurements for the * Measurement Study Period and that the Floor Service Level shall be defined as the least-favorable service measurement achieved during the * Measurement Study Period. If the * average equals *%, the Expected Service Level and the Floor Service Level shall be mutually agreed by the Parties.

^*	Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with the Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.


Exhibit B		Gap/IBM Proprietary and Confidential Information		Page 7 of 12

(c)

Where no measurements exist or less than * exist for a particular Service that is being provided by Supplier, the Parties shall use best efforts to agree on an Expected Service Level and a Floor Service Level commitment using industry standard measures or Third Party advisory services (for example, Gartner Group, Yankee Group, etc.), or such other process upon which the Parties agree.

(d)

If measurements must be obtained for a Service Level addition, and the required measurement tool is not listed in Exhibit B.3 (Measuring Tools and Methodologies) such tool will be implemented and the Measurement Study Period will commence when the tool has been obtained, installed and is operational.

9.2

Deletions. Gap may delete Critical Service Levels or Service Level Objectives by sending written notice in accordance with Section 8 (Additions, Deletions, Modifications and Notice Requirements).

9.3

Impact of Additions and Deletions of Critical Service Levels on Service Level Credit Allocation Percentages. When adding or deleting a Critical Service Level, Gap shall adjust the Service Level Credits so that Supplier’s total Service Level Credit At Risk Amount is not increased.

Certain of Supplier’s obligations under the Agreement are one-time or periodic obligations to deliver Critical Deliverables. Exhibit B.2 (Critical Deliverables) sets forth the Deliverable Credits that shall be payable by Supplier to Gap in the event Supplier fails to deliver any of the Critical Deliverables (“Deliverable Credits”), within the time period relative to the Initiation Date, specified in Exhibit B.1 (Service Level Matrix). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the total pool for Deliverable Credits shall not exceed * as set forth in Table C-1 (Annual Services Charge) to Exhibit C (Fees and Resource Baselines). The total amount of Deliverable Credits that Supplier will be obligated to pay to Gap shall be reflected on the invoice that contains charges for each month during which the Deliverable Credits occurred (for example, the amount of Deliverable Credits payable for failure to deliver any Critical Deliverable(s) in August shall be set forth in the invoice for August charges issued in September). Unlike Service Level Credits, Deliverable Credits shall be shown in each monthly invoice as an actual credit to the charges and will not be subject to *.

10.

COMMENCEMENT OF OBLIGATIONS

The obligations set forth herein shall commence on the Initiation Date or as otherwise specified in Exhibit B.1 (Service Level Matrix), referencing “Eff+mos (X).” The numbers used in “Eff+mos (X) are in the format X where “X” represents the number of months after the Initiation Date when Supplier will be responsible to provide measurement data in support of the Critical Service Level and Supplier will be responsible for Service Level Credits for any failures to attain the Critical Service Level.

Exhibit B		Gap/IBM Proprietary and Confidential Information		Page 8 of 12

11.

COOPERATION

The achievement of the Service Levels by Supplier may require the coordinated, collaborative effort of Supplier with other suppliers and other third parties (“Other Suppliers”) contracted with by Gap. Supplier will provide a single point of contact for the prompt resolution of all Service Level Defaults and all failures to provide high quality Services to Gap, regardless of whether the reason for such Service Level Defaults, or failure to provide high quality outsourcing Services to Gap, was caused by Supplier or Other Suppliers.

12.

IMPROVEMENT PLAN FOR SERVICE LEVELS

If Supplier fails to satisfy any Service Level, Supplier shall provide Gap with a written plan for improving Supplier’s performance to satisfy the Service Level within *, or *, of the failure to meet the Expected Service Level or the Floor Service Level for the Service Level, which plan shall be subject to Gap’s approval, not to be unreasonably withheld. Supplier shall promptly implement such plan once it has been approved by Gap.

13.

MEASURING TOOLS

As of the Initiation Date, the measuring tools and methodologies set forth in Exhibit B.3 (Measuring Tools and Methodology) represent acceptable measuring tools and methodologies for the Critical Service Levels and Service Level Objectives designated.

If there are any Critical Service Levels for which the measuring tools and methodologies have not been agreed upon by Gap and Supplier, are included in Exhibit B.3 (Measuring Tools and Methodology), and Supplier fails to propose a measuring tool for such Critical Service Level that is acceptable to Gap prior to the date upon which Supplier shall be responsible for Service Level performance and Service Level Credits due for Service Level Default, such failure shall be deemed a Floor Service Level Default for the Critical Service Level until Supplier proposes and implements an acceptable measuring tool.

Tools for new Critical Service Levels will be implemented according to the Change Control Procedures.

If, after the Initiation Date or the implementation of tools for new Critical Service Levels, Supplier desires to use a different measuring tool for a Critical Service Level, Supplier shall provide written notice to Gap, in which event the Parties will reasonably adjust the measurements as necessary to account for any increased or decreased sensitivity in the new measuring tools; provided that, if the Parties cannot agree on the required adjustment, Supplier will continue to use the measuring tool that had been initially agreed to by the Parties.

It is not anticipated that changes in the monitoring tools will drive changes in Service Levels; rather, the need to collect and accurately reflect the performance data should drive the development or change in performance monitoring tools.

SINGLE INCIDENT/MULTIPLE DEFAULTS

If a single incident results in the failure of Supplier to meet more than one Floor Service Level, *.

15.

CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT - SERVICE LEVELS

The Parties agree to the concept of continuous improvement and that the Critical Service Levels and Service Level Objectives should be modified during the Term to reflect this concept. To accomplish this, Critical Service Levels and Service Level Objectives will be modified each * period following the commencement of obligations date specific to each Critical Service Level and Service Level Objective as described in Section 9 (Process for Additions and Deletions of Service Levels) and below:

Each Expected Service Level will be reset to the * (for example, 99.6% is higher than 99.4%) at or above the Expected Service Levels achieved during the previous year; provided that, if fewer than * exceeded the Expected Service Level, the Expected Service Level will be reset by taking the *, and dividing the sum of the resulting numbers by *; provided, however, that if such average results in a number lower than the then-current Expected Service Level, the then-current Expected Service Level shall remain unchanged.

In no event shall any single increase in an Expected Service Level as provided above exceed * (*%) of the difference between one hundred percent (100%) and the then-current Expected Service Level. For example, if the Expected Service Level being adjusted were *%, the maximum increase for that reset would be *% (i.e. from *% to *%).

Each Floor Service Level will be reset by adding to the Floor Service Level being adjusted a sum equal to * (*%) of the difference between one-hundred percent (100%) and the then-current Floor Service Level.

For example, if the Floor Service Level being adjusted were *%, the increase would be *% (i.e., from *% to *%).

For ease of administration, beginning with the * and continuing with *, the process described in this Section 15 (Continuous Improvement – Service Levels) will be performed as of the *, utilizing the previous * data, replacing the Critical Service Level or Service Level Objective unique dates that were based upon the commencement of obligations dates specific to each Critical Service Level. For purposes of the *, the process described in this Section 15 (Continuous Improvement – Service Levels) will utilize the available information in the *.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Help Desk—Average Speed to Answer Service Level (or such other Service Levels as the Parties may agree in writing), in the event the Parties agree that the cost-benefit of applying these automatic improvement rules are not present, the Parties may, by mutual written agreement, agree not to apply these automatic improvement rules to such Service Level(s) for the *.

16.

EXCLUSIONS

16.1

For purposes of calculating Availability, Scheduled Uptime and Downtime shall not include any period of Downtime that is the result of scheduled time required to perform system maintenance (for example, Preventive Maintenance, system upgrades, etc.), provided that such time has been mutually agreed upon between the Parties and is scheduled so as to minimize the impact to Gap’s business. Supplier shall maintain Availability during such periods to the extent reasonably practicable.

16.2

Supplier shall not be responsible for Service Level Credits for a failure to meet any Service Level(s) solely to the extent that such failure is reasonably demonstrated by Supplier to be primarily attributable to any of the following:

(a)

(b)

* by Gap and agreed to by the Parties through the Change Control Procedures; provided that Supplier has previously notified Gap in writing as part of such Change Control Procedures that the implementation of such request would result in such failure to meet the Service Level.

TERMINATION FOR CHRONIC SERVICE LEVEL DEFAULT

Upon completion of Transition, in the event that a Chronic Service Level Default is realized, Gap, at its sole discretion, may, by written notice, terminate at its option the affected Functional Service Area, or Functional Service Area Segment and without application of any additional cure period. In the event that Gap elects to pursue this termination right, Gap agrees *, the * procured by Supplier and associated with the terminated Functional Service Area, or segment thereof. For purposes of this Section 17 (Termination for Chronic Service Level Default), * are those * that are * to the support and delivery of Services to Gap. Shared assets on Supplier premises are not included in *.

In order to exercise its termination right under this Section 17 (Termination for Chronic Service Level Default), Gap must notify Supplier in writing of its intention to exercise such right within ninety (90) days following its receipt of the Service Level reporting documentation confirming the Chronic Service Level Default. In the event Gap elects this termination right, such Chronic Service Level Default shall not be used by Gap as a basis for a claim of termination for cause under Section 33.2 (Termination for Cause by Gap) of the Agreement.

Except as expressly provided in this Section 17 (Termination for Chronic Service Level Default), nothing in this Section 17 (Termination for Chronic Service Level Default) precludes Gap from pursuing alternative remedies otherwise available in the Agreement.
