The UPS Store Centers Included in the Sample

This historical financial performance representation contains:

1.  the actual, average, annual, adjusted gross sales during each of the 2012, 2011, and 2010 full calendar years of all The UPS Store Centers in the United States and Puerto Rico that:

• (i) were in operation during the entire 2012, 2011, or 2010 calendar years, and reported their gross sales during the entire year;

• (ii) were in operation as of January 1 of the 2012, 2011, or 2010 calendar years, and then operated until at least sometime in December of that calendar year, and reported their gross sales for the entire timeframe during which they operated; and

• (iii) opened sometime during January of the 2012, 2011, or 2010 calendar years, and then operated until at least sometime in December of that calendar year, and reported their gross sales for the entire timeframe during which they operated.

2. as a component of that system-wide adjusted gross sales information, the actual, average, annual, adjusted gross sales during each of the 2012, 2011, and 2010 full calendar years of the top-performing (in terms of adjusted gross sales) 5%, 10%, and 20% of the franchised The UPS Store Centers in the United States and Puerto Rico that:

• i) were in operation during the entire 2012, 2011, or 2010 calendar years, and reported their gross sales during the entire year;

• (ii) were in operation as of January 1 of the 2012, 2011, or 2010 calendar years, and then operated until at least sometime in December of that calendar year, and reported their gross sales for the entire timeframe during which they operated; and

• (iii) opened sometime during January of the 2012, 2011, or 2010 calendar years, and then operated until at least sometime in December of that calendar year, and reported their gross sales for the entire timeframe during which they operated.

3.  A The UPS Store Center’s adjusted gross sales in a particular year are included in the calculation of the system-wide average adjusted gross sales during the 2012, 2011, or 2010 calendar years (subject to the qualifiers above) even if:

• (i) that Center’s ownership changed during the calendar year; or

• (ii) the Center did not operate during one or both of the other calendar years represented in this historical financial performance representation.

4.  All current The UPS Store Centers that first opened for business before approximately March 2003 originally operated under the Mail Boxes Etc. brand and then were re-branded to The UPS Store trademark beginning after approximately March 2003. All The UPS Store Center franchises granted since approximately March 2003 have operated under the The UPS Store trademark since inception.

5.  The UPS Store Centers whose annual average adjusted gross sales are included in the calculation reported below are located at both “Traditional” and “Non-Traditional” sites.

Traditional sites are highly visible locations in strip shopping centers or high foot-traffic downtown areas in urban, suburban, and rural markets. Non-Traditional sites are colleges, universities, hotels, convention centers, airports, resorts, military bases, self-storage facilities, inside other retailers (“store-within-store”), office buildings, regional or outlet malls, bus or train stations, and other similar facilities in urban, suburban, and rural markets.

Of the 4,256 total The UPS Store Centers counted for the 2012 calendar Year, 4,123 were at “Traditional” sites and 133 were at “Non-Traditional” sites.

6. The UPS Store has not independently audited the financial information reported by franchisees.

Definition of Terms

1.  “Adjusted Gross Sales” are defined as a franchisee’s total gross sales (not including sales taxes collected from customers), plus “gross commissions earned” less certain permitted “exclusions”.

2.  “Gross Commissions” is the total amount of all commissions actually earned by a franchisee during the franchise term on account of those transactions occurring at the Center in which the franchisee acts as agent for certain vendors or service providers specified in the Manuals, for example, UPS Drop-Off Program compensation.

3.  Examples of permitted “exclusions” are Counter Manifest System Processing Fees and deposits toward products to be sold or services to be rendered.
