REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors of the Group Profit Sharing, Incentive and Employer Contribution Plan (France):
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Group Profit Sharing, Incentive and Employer Contribution Plan (France) (the Plan) as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plans internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of June 30, 2007 and 2006 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

| --- |
| The following brief description of Procter & Gamble Holding France S.A.S. Group Profit
Sharing, Incentive and Employer Contribution Plan (the Plan) is provided for general
information only. Participants should refer to their countrys Plan supplement for more
complete information. |
| General The Plan is an employee savings plan established on December 17, 1990 by agreement
between Procter & Gamble S.A. (Procter & Gamble S.A. changed its name to Procter & Gamble
Services France and then to Procter & Gamble Services Neuilly before its current name Procter
& Gamble Holding France) together with its directly or indirectly wholly-owned subsidiaries,
and those subsidiaries respective Comités dEntreprise (Employee Committees), in order to
provide a means for eligible employees to save and invest their income, group profit sharing,
and incentive remuneration. The most recent Plan agreement took effect on July 1, 2005 and is
signed by Procter & Gamble Services Neuilly S.A.S., Procter & Gamble France S.A.S., Procter &
Gamble Pharmaceuticals France S.A.S. and Procter & Gamble Pharmaceuticals Longjumeau S.A.S.,
Procter & Gamble Amiens S.A.S., Procter & Gamble Blois S.A.S., Procter & Gamble Orléans S.A.S.
(except group profit sharing), (together, P&G France), and their related Employee
Committees. Procter & Gamble Holding France S.A.S. is directly or indirectly a wholly-owned
subsidiary of The Procter & Gamble Company, Inc. (the Parent). The Plan is subject to the
laws and regulations of France. Plan assets are invested in four Fonds Commun de Placement
dEntreprise (FCPE ) which are registered investment funds reserved to employees of Procter &
Gamble in France subject to the laws and regulations of France. |
| Administration Administration of the Plan is jointly executed by Procter & Gamble Holding
France S.A.S. and Natixis Asset Management, the fund manager. The four FCPE are under the
supervision of the Conseils de Surveillance (Monitoring Committees) which are composed of
both employee and employer representatives of P&G France. |
| Participants Accounts and Investments Options An account is maintained for each employee, and
reflects employee and employer contributions as well as employee withdrawals. There is no
provision for the allocation of income since the FCPEs do not pay dividends. Participants are
permitted to invest certain contributions into any of the four FCPEs; however, certain other
contributions from employees and from P&G France are mandatorily invested in FCPE Groupe
Procter & Gamble (Option D). Amounts may be transferred from one FCPE to another FCPE except
that blocked amounts may not be transferred out of FCPE Groupe Procter & Gamble (Option D). |

Contribution and Vesting Employees are eligible for Plan participation three months after their start date with P&G France. Contributions are made by Plan participants as well as by P&G France as follows:
Employees Contributions:
-
Voluntary, periodic contributions These are usually contributed on a monthly basis. They are eligible for matching contributions from P&G France. These contributions are automatically invested in Option D.
-
Voluntary, complementary contributions Employees may make complementary contributions whenever they wish although these amounts receive no matching contributions. These contributions are invested at the discretion of the employee in one of the four FCPEs.
Employers Contributions:
-
Employer matching contributions P&G France makes matching contributions of between 50 and 100 percent, based on employees voluntary, periodic contributions. These matching contributions are automatically invested in Option D.
-
Profit Sharing P&G France calculates and distributes these contributions according to French law as well as a supplementary profit-sharing agreement. These amounts are invested at the discretion of the employee in one of the four FCPEs. If no investment direction has been given by an employee, amounts are automatically invested as per the last investment choice or, by default, in Option D.
-
Incentive compensation P&G France contributes incentive amounts to employees according to an incentive compensation agreement. Employees have the option to receive these amounts immediately, or to contribute these amounts to the Plan. Amounts contributed to the Plan are invested at the discretion of the employee in one of the four FCPEs, or automatically invested as per the last investment choice.
All contributions are immediately 100 percent vested.
Withdrawals All contributions are blocked for a period of five years beginning on October 1 st of the calendar year in which the contribution was made. After this period, amounts are available for withdrawal without restriction. Under certain circumstances, as defined by law, a participant may withdraw blocked contributions. All amounts become immediately available for withdrawal upon the termination of employment.

Plan Termination The Plan agreement must be renewed every three years by written agreement between P&G France and their related Employee Committees. Thus, the present Plan will terminate on June 30, 2008. Although the Plan is expected to be renewed by all parties, any party has the right to decline to the renewal.
In the event of Plan termination, the FCPEs will either remain active or will be merged with other FCPEs. Thus, Plan participants will have the option to withdraw unblocked amounts or to remain invested. Future employee and employer contributions to the Plan would then be suspended.
- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Plan Investments The Plans investments are presented at fair-value based upon the net asset value of the units of each FCPE held by the Plan at year end. The net asset values of the FCPEs are determinated by the fund manager, Natixis Asset Management, based upon the fair value of the FCPEs underlying investments, less any liabilities.
Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on a trade date basis. The cost of investments sold is determined using average cost.
Expenses of the Plan Investment management, record keeping expenses, and other administrative expenses are paid by P&G Holding France S.A.S. Brokerage commissions are paid by the participants, and other costs related to the purchase or sale of shares are reflected in the price of the shares and borne by the participants.
Commissions on Subscriptions Contributions made to the plan are subject to a commission of 0,50 percent. These commissions are included in the amount of the subscriptions to the FCPE and benefit to the FCPE.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Plan invests in P&G common stock and in mutual funds. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for plan benefits.
Contributions Receivable Contributions that are pending transfer to the Trustee as of June 30, 2007 and 2006 are recorded as contributions receivable to the Plan in the accompanying financial statements.
