Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On August 17, 2007, The Procter & Gamble Company (the “Company”) and Procter & Gamble International S.a.r.l., Procter & Gamble Holding (HK) Limited and Procter & Gamble International Operations, each Named Borrowers and wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, entered into an amendment and restatement of the existing $24 billion 3-year credit facility that was entered into on July 27, 2005, (as previously amended, the “Credit Facility”), with a syndicate of banks led by Citigroup and JP Morgan. The amendment resulted in two new credit facilities: (i) a $17 billion 364-day credit facility, the cost of which is a variable interest rate of 8.5 basis points over LIBOR for drawn balances; and (ii) a $6 billion 5-year credit facility, the cost of which is 8.5 basis points over LIBOR for drawn balances until August 2008, when it increases to 15 basis points over LIBOR. Proceeds from each of these facilities will be used for commercial paper backstop and general corporate purposes. The Company and the other Named Borrowers expects to pay down these two new facilities from a combination of operating cash flow, commercial paper and term debt beginning in fiscal year 2007/08.

From time to time, one or more of banks in the syndicate (including Citigroup and JP Morgan), and/or their affiliates have provided, and may in the future provide, banking services to the Company and its subsidiaries.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
