SCHEDULE I

March 16, 2009

Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc.

J.P. Morgan Securities Inc.
As Representatives of the
several Underwriters

Gentlemen:

I am Senior Vice President-Deputy General Counsel-Corporate of The Walt Disney Company, a Delaware corporation (“Disney”), and have acted as such in connection with the issuance and sale by Disney of Medium-Term Notes, Series D, entitled 5.50% Global Notes due 2019 (the “Notes”) pursuant to the Terms Agreement, dated March 11, 2009 (the “Terms Agreement”), between Disney and each of the underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), for whom Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. are acting as representatives (the “Representatives”).

This letter is being furnished to you pursuant to the Terms Agreement.

In connection with this letter, I have examined and am familiar with originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of such documents as I have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for this letter, including (a) the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-148043), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 13, 2007 (such Registration Statement (including the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act (the “Incorporated Documents”)) being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Registration Statement”), pertaining to Disney’s debt securities and other securities, (b) the Prospectus, dated December 13, 2007, and the accompanying Prospectus Supplement, dated December 13, 2007 and Pricing Supplement, dated March 11, 2009, relating to the Notes, each of which were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the 1933 Act (such Prospectus (including the Incorporated Documents), Prospectus Supplement and Pricing Supplement being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Prospectus”), (c) executed copy of the Terms Agreement and (d) the Pricing Term Sheet attached as Schedule II to the Terms Agreement (“Term Sheet”).

I have made such inquiry of such officers of Disney and its subsidiaries and counsel for Disney and examined such corporate records, certificates of officers of Disney, officers of Disney’s subsidiaries and of public officials and such other documents and such questions of law and fact as I have considered necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this letter.  In connection with my participation in the preparation of the Registration Statement, Prospectus and the Term Sheet, I have not verified, independently, nor do I pass upon or assume any responsibility for, explicitly or implicitly, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained therein.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, nothing has come to my attention that leads me to believe that (a) the Registration Statement at the time such Registration Statement became effective contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (b) the Pricing Disclosure Package, at the Applicable Time, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (c) the Prospectus, as of the date of the Terms Agreement or as of the date hereof, contained or contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that, in each case, I express no opinion with respect to the financial statements, schedules and other financial data included or incorporated by reference therein or excluded therefrom or the exhibits to the Registration Statement, including the Trustee’s Statement of Eligibility and Qualification on Form T-1 under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.  As used in this paragraph, “Pricing Disclosure Package” means the base Prospectus dated as of December 13, 2007, and the accompanying Prospectus Supplement dated as of December 13, 2007 together with the Term Sheet.

This letter is rendered to you, in your capacity as Underwriters, in connection with the offering and sale of the Notes, and this letter may not be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to or relied upon for any other purpose or by any other person without my prior express written permission.

Very truly yours,
