Ladies & Gentlemen:

We are acting as special counsel to The Procter & Gamble Company, an Ohio corporation (the “Company”) and Procter & Gamble International Funding SCA, a Luxembourg société en commandite par actions (“PGIF”), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-3, as may be amended from time to time (the “Registration Statement”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to the contemplated issuance from time to time, as set forth in the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement (the “Prospectus”) and as may be set forth in one or more supplements to the Prospectus (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”) by (i) the Company of an unlimited amount of one or more series of debt securities of the Company (the “Procter & Gamble Debt Securities”) and (ii) PGIF of an unlimited amount of one or more series of debt securities of PGIF (the “PGIF Debt Securities”), to be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company (such guarantee, the “Guarantee”). In connection with any such contemplated issuance from time to time, we may pass upon the validity of the Procter & Gamble Debt Securities and the PGIF Debt Securities for any underwriters or agents. With your permission, all assumptions and statements of reliance herein have been made without any independent investigation or verification on our part except to the extent otherwise expressly stated, and we express no opinion with respect to the subject matter or accuracy of such assumptions or items relied upon.

The PGIF Debt Securities may be issued pursuant to an indenture, dated September 4, 2009, among PGIF, the Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the “PGIF Indenture”) attached as Exhibit (4)(c) to the Registration Statement. Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas serves as trustee for both the Procter & Gamble Indenture and the PGIF indenture and is referred to herein as the “Trustee.”

In connection with this opinion, we have (i) investigated such questions of law, (ii) examined originals or certified, conformed, facsimile, electronic or reproduction copies, of such agreements, instruments, documents and records of the Company and PGIF, such certificates of public officials and such other documents, and (iii) received such information from officers and representatives of the Company, PGIF and others as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion.
