(1)  This includes 81,000,000 shares held by Fisher Core Holdings L.P. over which Robert J. Fisher, William S. Fisher and John J. Fisher, as general partners thereof, share dispositive and voting power.  Robert J. Fisher, William S. Fisher and John J. Fisher each disclaim individual beneficial ownership of the shares held by Fisher Core Holdings L.P., except to the extent of each person’s actual ownership interest in Fisher Core Holdings L.P. although all shares held by Fisher Core Holdings L.P. are included in the amounts specified by each Reporting Person above.  The numbers and shares shown on the preceding pages and in Item 5 below also reflect multiple counting of certain shares since beneficial ownership of those shares is attributable to more than one Reporting Person by Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”), as further described in Item 5 below.
 
Item 1.            Security and Issuer
 
This statement on Schedule 13D (this “Statement”) relates to Common Stock, par value $0.05 per share (the “Common Stock”), of The Gap, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”).  The address of the principal executive office of the Issuer is: Two Folsom Street, San Francisco, CA 94105.
 
This Statement amends the prior statement on Schedule 13D filed by Fisher Core Holdings L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Robert J. Fisher, William S. Fisher and John J. Fisher (each, with the trusts for which such individual is the trustee, a “Reporting Person” and, collectively, the “Reporting Persons”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 6, 2004 and amended on March 16, 2006, January 29, 2007, August 22, 2007, March 4, 2008, October 1, 2008, March 20, 2009 and November 27, 2009 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”).  The disclosure made herein supersedes and replaces the prior statements on Schedule 13D.
 
Item 2.            Identity and Background
 
a)  This Statement is filed on behalf of the Reporting Persons to update the Issuer share ownership information with respect to each Reporting Person from that previously reported in the Schedule 13D, to disclose the transfer by gift of the limited partnership units by Doris F. Fisher, through trusts for which Doris F. Fisher serves as trustee, to trusts for which the Reporting Persons are trustee, as more fully described in Items 4 and 6 below, and to disclose the amendments to, and the subsequent termination by their terms of, the Purchase Agreements (as defined in Item 6 below) by and between the Issuer and each of Robert J.

Fisher, William S. Fisher and John J. Fisher, either through trusts or individually, are the general partners of Fisher Core Holdings L.P.  The LP Agreement provides that any decisions on voting and/or disposition of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer held by Fisher Core Holdings L.P. will require a majority vote of the general partners.  Limited partners have no voting or dispositive control over any shares held by Fisher Core Holdings L.P.  All references to the LP Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the LP Agreement and amendment included as Exhibits 1 and 12 to this Statement, each of which is incorporated by reference herein.
 
As general partners of Fisher Core Holdings L.P., the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by Fisher Core Holdings L.P.  Accordingly, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a “group” under Section 13(d) of the Act, with respect to their beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.  However, the Reporting Persons expressly declare that the filing of this Statement is not intended as, and should not be deemed to be, an admission that any Reporting Person, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act or otherwise, is the individual beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer held by other members of the group, except to the extent of each general partner’s ownership interest in Fisher Core Holdings L.P.

d) & e)  During the last five years, the Reporting Persons (i) have not been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) have not been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
 
f)  The following Reporting Persons are citizens of the United States:  Robert J. Fisher, William S. Fisher and John J. Fisher.  Fisher Core Holdings L.P. is a Delaware limited partnership.
 
Item 3.            Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
 
The Reporting Persons are deemed to beneficially own certain shares of Common Stock of the Issuer as reflected in this Statement, including shares beneficially owned by the other Reporting Persons, as general partners of Fisher Core Holdings L.P.  No consideration was used to acquire beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer which the Reporting Persons are deemed to have acquired beneficial ownership of as a result of having entered into the LP Agreement or otherwise since the filing of the Schedule 13D.
 
In addition to the shares that the Reporting Persons are deemed to have acquired beneficial ownership of through the LP Agreement, Robert J. Fisher, William S. Fisher and John J. Fisher also acquired shares of Common Stock of the Issuer prior to the registration of such shares under the Act or by gift.  Robert J. Fisher and William S. Fisher have also previously acquired shares of Common Stock of the Issuer upon the exercise of options.  All such shares were acquired with personal funds.
 
From time to time, the Reporting Persons have transferred shares to various entities controlled by them, disposed of certain shares to third parties by gift and sold shares of Issuer Common Stock in the open market and in privately negotiated transactions.
 
Item 4.            Purpose of Transaction
 
This Statement is being filed to update the share ownership information with respect to each Reporting Person, to disclose the transfer by gift of the limited partnership units in Fisher Core Holdings L.P. to trusts for which the Reporting Persons are trustee, as more fully described in this Item 4 and Item 6 below, and to disclose the amendments to, and the subsequent termination by their terms of, the Purchase Agreements by and between the Issuer and each of Robert J. Fisher and John J. Fisher, as more fully described in Item 6 below.  Pursuant to the LP Agreement, Robert J. Fisher, William S. Fisher and John J. Fisher, either through trusts or individually, are the general partners of Fisher Core Holdings L.P.  On March 29, 2010, Doris F. Fisher, as trustee of trusts that were limited partners, transferred by gift the 66,000 limited partnership units in Fisher Core Holdings L.P. to trusts, for each of which, a Reporting Person serves as trustee.  As a result, trusts for which the Reporting Persons are the trustees are the limited partners of the partnership.  All references to the LP Agreement and the LP Amendment are qualified in their entirety by reference to the LP Agreement and LP Amendment included as Exhibit 1 and Exhibit 12, respectively, to this Statement, which are incorporated by reference herein.
 
The Reporting Persons intend to review their respective investments in the Issuer on a continuing basis and may, at any time, consistent with the obligations of the Reporting Persons under the federal securities laws, determine to increase or decrease their respective ownership of shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock through purchases or sales of such Common Stock of the Issuer in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or by gift.  The review of their respective investments in the Issuer by the Reporting Persons will depend on various factors, including the Issuer’s business prospects, other developments concerning the Issuer, alternative investment opportunities, general economic conditions, money and stock market conditions, and any other facts and circumstances which may become known to the Reporting Persons regarding their respective investments in the Issuer.  At the time of filing this Statement, the Reporting Persons have no plans to purchase additional shares of Common Stock of the Issuer in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions but may engage in such transactions in the future.
 
At the time of the filing of this Schedule 13D, other than as disclosed in this Statement, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in (i) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) any change in the board of directors or management of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (iv) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer, (v) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure; (vi) changes in the Issuer’s charter or bylaws or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person, (vii) causing a series of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or cease to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association, (viii) a series of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act or (ix) any action similar to any of those described above.  However, Robert J. Fisher and William S. Fisher, as members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, may, in such capacity, from time to time, be involved in discussions which relate to the transactions described in this Item 4 and thus retain their right to modify their plans with respect to the transactions described in this Item 4, to acquire or dispose of securities of the Issuer and to formulate plans and proposals which could result in the occurrence of any such events, subject to applicable laws and regulations.  The Reporting Persons disclaim any obligation to report on any plans with respect to the transactions described in this Item 4 that develop as a result of any Reporting Person’s involvement in the ongoing management as an officer or director of the Issuer and participation in decisions regarding the Issuer’s transactions.
