Concurrent with this authorization, on November 17, 2009, the Company entered into purchase agreements (the "Agreements") with certain individual members of the Fisher family: John J. Fisher and Robert J. Fisher (each, a "Seller"). Pursuant to the Agreements, the Company has agreed to buy and each Seller has agreed to sell a number of shares of the Company's common stock which in the aggregate among both of the Sellers would equal approximately 4% of the total number of shares purchased by the Company pursuant to this new $500 million repurchase program. The purchase price for the shares of the Company's common stock to be purchased from each Seller will be determined on a monthly basis and will be the weighted average price that the company pays for share repurchases pursuant to this new repurchase program in the open market. Either the Company or the individual Seller may terminate the agreement upon 15 business days notice. The foregoing description of the Agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Agreements, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Transactions with Related Persons
Under a lease agreement approved by the Audit and Finance Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, the Company leases a total of approximately 27,000 square feet of space in its One Harrison and Two Folsom San Francisco headquarter locations to Doris F. Fisher, William S. Fisher's mother, that is used primarily to display portions of her personal art collection. The agreements provide for base rent ranging from $30.00 to $42.35 per square foot per year over a 15-year term. Rental income from this leased space for fiscal 2008 was approximately $1 million.
