delivered significant value to our shareholders,” said Art Peck, chief executive officer of Gap Inc.
“Since I assumed the CEO role two years ago, Sabrina has been an instrumental partner in helping the company transition to a new
leadership team. With that period of transition behind us, Sabrina and I agreed that this was an appropriate time for a change in
the organization and for her to pursue the next chapter in her career. Sabrina and I will work together to ensure an orderly
