[DATE] STAR Awards
 

This communicates the average [YEAR] STAR award at [NUMBER]% of target.

To briefly review, STAR awards are a combination of business unit awards, the Company factor and your individual STAR target based on your salary and level. (STAR Award = Unit Award x Company Factor x Your STAR Target). Unit awards are recommended by the STAR Committee based on a retrospective assessment of each business unit's performance. The Company factor is calculated based on P&G's organic sales growth and core earnings per share growth.

When the unit award and the Company factor are multiplied together, the overall STAR award can range between [NUMBER]% and [NUMBER]% of target, as shown below. Good performance is required to earn an award at 100% of target.

TO:     STAR RECIPIENTS OF P&G STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS*

The attached stock option grant letter refers to your STAR award. The grant was determined by dividing your gross award (in USD) to be paid in stock options, by the closing stock price on [DATE] of $[PRICE]. The result is then multiplied by 6.0 and then rounded up to the next full share. No further action is required to accept this grant.

Stock options are granted under the terms and conditions of the 2009 Procter & Gamble Stock & Incentive Compensation Plan which can be found via the my.pg.com site: from the Life & Career Center go to Manager Center > Compensation & Incentives > Stock Plans > 2009 Stock Plan.

You may retain these STAR stock options until their expiration date in ten years even if you leave the Company voluntarily (as long as you do not violate the non-compete and other conditions outlined in Article F of the 2009 Stock Plan).  This is only true for STAR stock options since they represent payment for the award that you have already earned. These options will vest in three years.

Please file the attached grant letter with your important materials. If you have any questions about the award granted, please direct them to us via e-mail at Execcomp-IM. Questions related to the exercise process should be directed to Stock Option Administration via e-mail at Stockopt-IM.
