In connection with The Procter & Gamble Company’s (“the Company”) 2014 annual meeting of shareholders, which will take place on October 14, 2014, the Board of Directors has provided these materials to you, either over the Internet or via mail. The Notice was mailed to Company shareholders beginning August 29, 2014, and our proxy materials were posted on the website referenced in the Notice on that same date. The Company, on behalf of its Board, is soliciting your proxy to vote your shares at the 2014 annual meeting of shareholders. We solicit proxies to give shareholders of record an opportunity to vote on matters that will be presented at the annual meeting. In this proxy statement, you will find information on these matters, which is provided to assist you in voting your shares.

Who can vote?

You can vote if, as of the close of business on Friday, August 15, 2014, you were a shareholder of record of the Company’s:

•

Common Stock (“Common Stock”);

•

Series A ESOP Convertible Class A Preferred Stock; or

•

Series B ESOP Convertible Class A Preferred Stock.

Each share of Company stock gets one vote. On August 15, 2014, there were issued and outstanding:

•

2,706,984,263 shares of Common Stock;

•

52,508,017 shares of Series A ESOP Convertible Class A Preferred Stock; and

•

57,838,477 shares of Series B ESOP Convertible Class A Preferred Stock.

For participants in The Procter & Gamble Profit Sharing Trust and Employee Stock Ownership Plan and/or The Procter & Gamble Savings Plan:

If you are a participant in The Procter & Gamble Profit Sharing Trust and Employee Stock Ownership Plan and/or The Procter & Gamble Savings Plan, you can instruct the Trustees how to vote the shares of stock that are allocated to your account. If you do not vote your shares, the Trustees will vote them in proportion to those shares for which they have received voting instructions. Likewise, the Trustees will vote shares held by the trust that have not been allocated to any account in the same manner.

For participants in The Procter & Gamble Shareholder Investment Program and/or The Procter & Gamble International Stock Ownership Program:

If you are a participant in The Procter & Gamble Shareholder Investment Program and/or The Procter & Gamble International Stock Ownership Program, you can vote the shares of common stock held for your account through one of the proxy voting options set forth under “How do I vote by proxy?” below.

How do I vote by proxy?

Most shareholders can vote by proxy in three ways:

•

By Internet—You can vote via the Internet by following the instructions in the Notice or by accessing the Internet at www.proxyvote.com and following the instructions contained on that website;

•

By Telephone—In the United States and Canada, you can vote by telephone by following the instructions in the Notice or by calling 1-800-690-6903 (toll-free) and following the instructions; or

•

By Mail—You can vote by mail by requesting a full packet of proxy materials be sent to your home address. Upon receipt of the materials, you may fill out the enclosed proxy card and return it per the instructions on the card.

Please see the Notice or the information your bank, broker, or other holder of record provided you for more information on these options.

If you authorize a proxy to vote your shares over the Internet or by telephone, you should not return a proxy card by mail (unless you are revoking your proxy).

LOGO

If you vote by proxy, your shares will be voted at the annual meeting in the manner you indicate on your proxy card. If you sign your proxy card but do not specify how you want your shares to be voted, they will be voted as the Board recommends.

Can I change or revoke my vote after I return my proxy card?

Yes. You can change or revoke your proxy by Internet, telephone, or mail prior to 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on Monday, October 13, 2014, or by attending the annual meeting and voting in person.

Can I vote in person at the annual meeting instead of voting by proxy?

Yes. However, we encourage you to vote your proxy by Internet, telephone, or mail prior to the meeting.

Voting Procedures

Election of Directors—As provided in the Company’sAmended Articles of Incorporation, each of the 11 nominees for Director who receives a majority of votes cast will be elected as a member of the Board. A “majority of votes cast” means that the number of shares cast “for” a nominee must exceed the number of votes cast “against” that nominee. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect. Pursuant to the By Laws of the Board of Directors, if a non-incumbent nominee for Director receives a greater number of votes cast “against” than votes cast “for,” such nominee shall not be elected as a member of the Board. Any incumbent nominee for Director who receives a greater number of votes cast “against” than votes cast “for” shall continue to serve on the Board pursuant to Ohio law, but shall immediately tender his or her resignation as a Director to the Board. Within 90 days, the Board will decide, after taking into account the recommendation of the Governance & Public Responsibility Committee (in each case excluding the nominee in question), whether to accept the resignation. Absent a compelling reason for the Director to remain on the Board, the Board shall accept the resignation. The Board’s explanation of its decision shall be promptly disclosed on a Form 8-K submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The proposal to adopt The Procter & Gamble 2014 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan and all other proposals require the affirmative vote of a majority of shares participating in the voting on each proposal for approval. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as participating in the voting and will therefore have no effect.

Who pays for this proxy solicitation?

The Company does. We have hired Phoenix Advisory Partners, a proxy solicitation firm, to assist us in soliciting proxies for a fee of $17,500 plus reasonable expenses. In addition, Phoenix Advisory Partners and the Company’s Directors, officers, and employees may also solicit proxies by mail, telephone, personal contact, email, or other online methods. We will reimburse their expenses for doing this.

We will also reimburse brokers, fiduciaries, and custodians for their costs in forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners of Company stock. Other proxy solicitation expenses that we will pay include those for preparing, mailing, returning, and tabulating the proxies.

LOGO

Director Experiences, Skills, and Qualifications

The composition of the Board is intended to reflect an appropriate mix of skill sets, experience, and qualifications that are relevant to the business and governance of the Company over time. Each individual Director should epitomize the Company’s Purpose, Values and Principles, possess the highest ethics and integrity, and demonstrate commitment to representing the long-term interests of the Company’s shareholders. Each Director should also have an inquisitive and objective mind and individual experiences that provide practical wisdom and foster mature judgment. These experiences, at policy-making levels, may include business, government, technology, international, marketing, and other areas that are relevant to the Company’s global operations. In addition, the evaluation of Director nominees by the Governance & Public Responsibility Committee takes into account diversity, including with respect to age, gender, international background, and race.

Below we identify and describe specific experiences, skills, and qualifications our Directors bring to the Board. Each of our current Directors is a highly qualified, recognized leader in his or her respective industry or field. Each of the Director’s specific experiences, skills, and qualifications considered by the Board in their re-nomination are included in their individual biographies and the accompanying table on page 9 of this proxy statement. The fact that we do not list a particular experience, skill, or qualification for a Director does not mean that Director does not possess that particular experience, skill, or qualification.

Leadership, strategy, and risk management experience. Directors with significant leadership experience over an extended period, including current and former chief executive officers, provide the Company with special insights. These individuals demonstrate a practical understanding of how large organizations operate, including the importance of talent management and how employee and executive compensation are set. They understand strategy and risk management, and how these factors impact the Company’s operations and controls. They possess extraordinary leadership qualities and are able to identify and develop leadership qualities in others. And, through their various leadership positions, they have access to important information and relationships that benefit the Company.

Consumer industry experience. Directors with experience in dealing with consumers, particularly in the areas of marketing and selling products or services to consumers, provide valuable insights to the Company. They understand consumer needs, recognize products and marketing campaigns that might resonate with consumers, and identify potential changes in consumer trends and buying habits.

International experience. Directors with experience in markets outside of the United States bring valuable knowledge to the Company, including exposure to different cultural perspectives and practices. Because we do business in over 180 countries, and business in international markets accounts for approximately 65% of the Company’s revenue, having Directors on our Board with this experience is critical.

Marketing experience. Directors with experience identifying, developing, and marketing new products, as well as identifying new areas for existing products, can add significant positive impact to the Company’s operational results. As one of the world’s largest advertisers, this is a particularly important attribute.

Finance experience. Directors with an understanding of accounting and financial reporting processes, particularly as they relate to a large, complex, global business, provide an important oversight role. The Company employs a number of financial targets to measure its performance, and accurate financial reporting is critical to the Company’s success. Directors with financial experience are essential for ensuring effective oversight of the Company’s financial measures and processes.

Government experience. Directors with government experience, whether as members of the government or through extensive interactions with government and government agencies, are able to recognize, identify, and understand the key issues that the Company faces in an economy increasingly affected by the role of governments around the world.

Technology and innovation experience. Directors with an understanding of technology and innovation help the Company focus its efforts in these important areas, as well as track progress against strategic goals and benchmarks. As one of the few companies with an Innovation & Technology Committee of the Board, this is particularly important to the Company’s overall success.

LOGO

Director Diversity

The Board considers diversity to be an important criterion in the selection and nomination of candidates for Director. As a global company, the Board seeks Directors with international backgrounds and global experience, among other factors. This is reflected in the Corporate Governance Guidelines, which set forth the minimum qualifications for Board members and note that the Board “seeks to achieve a mix of Board members that represents a diversity of background and experience, including with respect to age, gender, international background, race, and specialized experience.”

Although the Board does not establish specific goals with respect to diversity, the Board’s overall diversity is a significant consideration in the Director nomination process. For this year’s election, the Board has nominated 11 individuals; all are incumbent nominees who currently bring tremendous diversity to the Board. Each nominee is a strategic thinker and has varying, specialized experience in areas that are relevant to the Company and its businesses. Moreover, their collective experience covers a wide range of countries, geographies, and industries, including consumer products, technology, financial services, national retail, agriculture, aerospace, and health care, as well as roles in consulting and government. These 11 Director nominees range in age from 53 to 67, and five of these 11 Directors, or 45% of our current Board, are women; one is African-American; and one is Mexican. The Board views this diversity as a clear strength.

The Board assesses the effectiveness of its diversity policy every year as part of the nomination process for the annual election of Directors by the Company’s shareholders. The Board’s Governance & Public Responsibility Committee, responsible for making recommendations for Director nominations to the full Board, reviews the Director nominees (including shareholder nominees) and ascertains whether, as a whole, the group meets the Board’s policy in this regard. Having reviewed the collective background and experience of the 11 nominees, the Board has concluded that they provide significant diversity and clearly meet the Board’s policy.

LOGO

All of the Board’s nominees for Director are incumbent nominees who will be elected for a one-year term. Angela F. Braly, Kenneth I. Chenault, Scott D. Cook, Susan Desmond-Hellmann, A.G. Lafley, Terry J. Lundgren, W. James McNerney, Jr., Margaret C. Whitman, Mary Agnes Wilderotter, Patricia A. Woertz, and Ernesto Zedillo were elected for one-year terms at the 2013 annual meeting. The current terms of all nominees for Director will expire at the 2014 annual meeting. The Board has nominated each of these individuals for a new term that will expire at the 2015 annual meeting.

Each of the nominees for Director has accepted the nomination and agreed to serve as a Director if elected by the Company’s shareholders. If any nominee becomes unable or unwilling to serve between the date of the proxy statement and the annual meeting, the Board may designate a new nominee, and the persons named as proxies will vote on that substitute nominee.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR Angela F. Braly, Kenneth I. Chenault, Scott D. Cook, Susan Desmond-Hellmann, A.G. Lafley, Terry J. Lundgren, W. James McNerney, Jr., Margaret C. Whitman, Mary Agnes Wilderotter, Patricia A. Woertz, and Ernesto Zedillo as Directors to hold office until the 2015 annual meeting of shareholders and until their successors are elected.

The Board’s Purpose

The Board has general oversight responsibility for the Company’s affairs pursuant to Ohio’s General Corporation Law, the Company’s Amended Articles of Incorporation, the Code of Regulations, and the By Laws of the Board of Directors. In exercising its fiduciary duties, the Board represents and acts on behalf of the Company’s shareholders and is committed to strong corporate governance, as revealed through its policies and practices. Although the Board does not have responsibility for the day-to-day management of the Company, it stays informed about the Company’s business and provides guidance to Company management through periodic meetings, site visits, and other interactions. The Board is deeply involved in the Company’s strategic planning process, leadership development, succession planning, and oversight of risk management. The Board has established committees to assist in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities. Additional details concerning the Board’s commitments and principles guiding its overall governance practices are contained in the Corporate Governance Guidelines, which can be found in the corporate governance section of the Company’s website at www.pginvestor.com.

The Board’s Leadership Structure

The Board regularly considers the appropriate leadership structure for the Company and has concluded that the Company and its shareholders are best served by the Board retaining discretion to determine whether the same individual should serve as both Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chairman of the Board, or whether the roles should be separated. The Board believes that it is important to retain the flexibility to make this determination at any given point in time based on what it believes will provide the best leadership structure for the Company. This approach allows the Board to utilize its considerable experience and knowledge to elect the most qualified Director as Chairman of the Board, while maintaining the ability to separate the Chairman of the Board and CEO roles when necessary. Accordingly, at some points in the Company’s history, the CEO and Chairman of the Board roles were held by the same person. At other times, the roles were held by different individuals. In each instance, the decision on whether to combine or separate the roles was made in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders, based on the circumstances at the time.

Further, in the event that the Board determines that the same individual should hold the positions of CEO and Chairman of the Board, the independent Directors of the Board annually elect a Presiding Director from among the independent Directors. The Presiding Director role is a significant one, with responsibilities consistent with accepted best practices, including:

•

preside at all meetings of the Board in the absence of, or upon the request of, the Chairman of the Board, including executive sessions of the independent members of the Board;

•

approve meeting agendas for the Board and information sent to the Board;

•

approve meeting schedules to assure that there is sufficient time for discussion of all agenda items;

•

advise the Chairman of the Board and/or the Secretary regarding the agendas for the Board meetings;

•

call meetings of the non-employee and/or independent members of the Board, with appropriate notice;

•

advise the Governance & Public Responsibility Committee and the Chairman of the Board on the membership of the various Board committees and the selection of committee chairpersons;

•

advise the Chairman of the Board on the retention of advisors and consultants who report directly to the Board;

•

advise the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, as appropriate, on issues discussed at executive sessions of non-employee and/or independent members;

•

with the Chair of the Compensation & Leadership Development Committee, review with the Chief Executive Officer the non-employee members’ annual evaluation of his performance;

•

serve as principal liaison between the non-employee and/or independent members, as a group, and the Chairman of the Board, as necessary;

•

serve when necessary and appropriate, after consultation with the Chief Executive Officer, as the liaison between the Board and the Company’s shareholders; and

•

select an interim Presiding Director to preside over meetings at which he or she cannot be present.

Mr. McNerney serves as the Board’s current Presiding Director and has been annually re-elected to that role since August 14, 2007. Mr. McNerney is a strong, independent Presiding Director, who fulfilled each of these duties during the past year. As the current Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of The Boeing Company, and former CEO of 3M Company, he brings a wealth of diverse experiences and outside perspective to his role as Presiding Director. In FY 2013-14, the independent Directors met 6 times in regularly scheduled executive sessions, without Mr. Lafley present. Mr.

LOGO

McNerney led those sessions and following each, he advised Mr. Lafley on the Board’s discussions, including performance feedback.

During the Board’s annual evaluation of its leadership structure, and upon recommendation of the Governance & Public Responsibility Committee, the non-employee Directors of the Board concluded that the current leadership structure continues to be the right leadership structure for the Company at this time, and it is not in the best interests of the shareholders to separate the role of Chairman of the Board and CEO and require an independent Chairman. The non-employee Directors then reappointed Mr. McNerney to serve as Presiding Director for FY 2014-15.

The Board reached this decision because the current leadership structure, with Mr. Lafley serving as both Chairman of the Board and CEO, provides unified leadership and direction for the Company and gives clear focus for management to execute the Company’s strategy, business plans and productivity efforts. Mr. Lafley’s proven leadership and extensive knowledge of the Company, its people and its business are key attributes for the Chairman of the Board. Mr. Lafley as Chairman and CEO, and Mr. McNerney work well together, and the Board is confident that the appropriate balance of power will be maintained. The Board will continue to periodically evaluate the Company’s leadership structure to ensure that the Board’s structure is right and appropriate at all times.

The Board’s Oversight of Risk

It is the responsibility of the Company’s senior management to develop and implement the Company’s strategic plans, and to identify, evaluate, manage, and mitigate the risks inherent in those plans. It is the responsibility of the Board to understand and oversee the Company’s strategic plans, the associated risks, and the steps that senior management is taking to manage and mitigate those risks. The Board takes an active approach to its role in overseeing the development and execution of the Company’s business strategies as well as its risk oversight role. This approach is bolstered by the Board’s leadership and committee structure, which ensures proper consideration and evaluation of potential enterprise risks by the full Board under the auspices of the Chairman of the Board and Presiding Director, and further consideration and evaluation of discrete risks at the committee level.

To ensure proper oversight of the Company’s management and the potential risks that the Company faces, at any time when the Chairman of the Board and CEO roles are held by the same individual, the non-employee members of the Board annually elect a Presiding Director from the Board’s independent Directors. The Presiding Director’s duties include helping to ensure that the Board’s agenda and executive sessions are appropriately focused on risk. In addition, the Board is comprised of all independent Directors, except for Mr. Lafley, the Chairman and CEO; all members of the key committees of the Board (Audit, Compensation & Leadership Development, and Governance & Public Responsibility) are independent. This system ensures that key decisions made by the Company’s most senior management, up to and including the CEO, are reviewed and overseen by the non-employee Directors of the Board, each of whom is independent.

Risk management oversight by the full Board includes a comprehensive annual review of the Company’s overall strategic plan, typically conducted in June. The Board also devotes significant time to reviewing the strategic plans for each of the Company’s business sectors, including the risks associated with these strategic plans, at Board meetings during the year. The Board also conducts reviews of other strategic focus areas for the Company. The Board annually reviews the conclusions and recommendations generated by management’s enterprise risk management process. This process involves a cross-functional group of the Company’s senior management which, on a continual basis, identifies current and future potential risks facing the Company and ensures that actions are taken to manage and mitigate those potential risks. The Board also has overall responsibility for leadership succession for the Company’s most senior officers, including the CEO, and reviews succession plans on an ongoing basis.

In addition, the Board has delegated certain risk management oversight responsibilities to specific Board committees, each of which reports regularly to the full Board. In performing these oversight responsibilities, each committee has full access to management, as well as the ability to engage independent advisors. The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and its overall risk management process. It also regularly receives reports regarding the Company’s most significant internal controls, compliance risks, and potential legal and regulatory risks, along with management’s plans for managing and mitigating those risks, and processes for maintaining compliance within a strong internal controls environment. Representatives from the Company’s independent auditor attend Audit Committee meetings, regularly make presentations to the Audit Committee, and comment on management presentations. In addition, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), Chief Legal Officer, chief audit executive, and representatives of the Company’s

LOGO

independent auditor individually meet in private session with the Audit Committee to raise any concerns they might have with the Company’s risk management practices.

The Board’s C&LD Committee employs an independent compensation consultant, Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc., who does not work for management and, among other tasks, reviews, and reports on all of the Company’s executive compensation programs, including the potential risks and other impacts of incentives created by the programs. For more details on the arrangement with Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc., please see the section entitled “Engagement of Independent Adviser” found on page 33 of this proxy statement.

The independent compensation consultant’s review included an analysis of the Company’s short-, medium-, and long-term compensation programs covering key program details, performance factors for each program, target award ranges, maximum funding levels, and plan administrative oversight and control requirements. Key program elements assessed relating to potential compensation risks were pay mix, performance metrics, performance goals and payout curves, payment timing and adjustments, severance packages, equity incentives, stock ownership requirements, and trading policies. Simultaneously, members of management performed a similar review of the Company’s other compensation programs. The results of the consultant’s analysis of the Company’s executive compensation programs, as well as management’s review of the Company’s other compensation programs, were shared with the C&LD Committee, which concluded that the Company’s compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company as a whole.

In reaching its conclusion, the C&LD Committee noted that the Company’s compensation programs include a mix of cash and equity, as well as annual, medium-term, and long-term incentives. This mix of compensation, the design features of these programs, and the Company’s respective oversight and control requirements mitigate the potential of any individual inclination toward taking unnecessary risks. The C&LD Committee also acknowledged various other features of the Company’s compensation programs, policies, and practices designed to mitigate unwarranted risk. For example, the Company’s annual cash bonus program, the Short-Term Achievement Reward (“STAR”), provides the C&LD Committee with discretion to reduce or eliminate any award that would otherwise be payable. In addition, the performance metrics under STAR include both quantitative measures (e.g., top-line growth, bottom-line profits, free cash flow, etc.) and qualitative measures (e.g., relative performance, internal collaboration, strategic strength, innovation, etc.). These non-metric features mitigate the risk of an executive focusing too much on the specific financial metrics under STAR. Moreover, the performance metrics associated with the STAR Company Factor (core earnings per share growth and organic sales growth) are aligned with the Company’s business plans and strategic objectives.

Further, the C&LD Committee recognized that the Company’s longer-term incentives include a balanced portfolio of options, restricted stock units, and performance-vested stock (under the Performance Stock Plan). These longer-term incentives incorporate a variety of payout horizons that focus executives on long-term performance: 10-year terms with three-year cliff vesting for stock options, restricted stock units with five-year cliff vesting, and a three-year performance period for performance-vested stock. The C&LD Committee also noted that the design of the Performance Stock Plan reduces the likelihood that an executive will focus too much on a single performance measure by including four different performance categories, each of which is equally weighted: organic sales growth, before-tax operating profit growth, core earnings per share growth, and free cash flow productivity. In addition, each of these factors range from a minimum of 0% to a maximum of 200%. Using this sliding scale approach, versus an all-or-nothing approach, discourages participants from taking unnecessary risks. Each of the financial measures are defined and further explained on page 31 of this proxy statement.

Finally, the C&LD Committee acknowledged that the Company has adopted several policies intended to mitigate inappropriate risk taking, including stock ownership guidelines for senior executives, a recoupment policy that can be applied in the event of any significant financial restatement, and an insider trading policy that prohibits margin and hedging transactions by senior executives.

All Directors served on the respective committees listed above, including committee chairs for the Company’s entire fiscal year.

The Audit Committee met 8 times during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, to carry out its responsibilities under its charter. At each meeting, representatives of Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, and financial management were present to review accounting, control, auditing, and financial reporting matters. During certain of these meetings, the Audit Committee also held private sessions with the Company’s CFO, Chief Legal Officer, chief audit executive, and representatives of Deloitte & Touche LLP. All members of this Committee are independent under the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) listing standards and the Board of Directors’ Guidelines for Determining the Independence of its Members (the “Independence Guidelines”), which can be found in the corporate governance section of the Company’s website at www.pginvestor.com.

The Compensation & Leadership Development Committee met 5 times during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, during which it held 5 executive sessions with no member of management present. All members of this Committee are independent under the NYSE listing standards and the Independence Guidelines. The C&LD Committee has a charter, under which it has full authority and responsibility for the Company’ soverall compensation policies, including base pay, short- and long-term pay, retirement benefits, perquisites, severance arrangements, recoupment, stock ownership requirements, and stock option holding requirements, if any, and their specific application to principal officers elected by the Board and to members of the Board. This Committee assists the Board in the leadership development and evaluation of principal officers and also has the responsibility to periodically review organizational diversity. As a practical matter, the CEO makes recommendations to the C&LD Committee regarding the compensation elements of the principal officers (other than his own compensation) based on Company performance, individual performance, and input from Company management and the C&LD Committee’s independent compensation consultant. All final decisions regarding compensation for principal officers are made by this Committee, and this Committee makes a recommendation to the Board regarding the shareholder votes related to executive compensation. For more details regarding principal officer compensation or this Committee’s process for making decisions regarding the compensation of principal officers, please see the Compensation Discussion & Analysis section found on pages 21-35 of this proxy statement. This Committee also approves all stock-based equity grants made under The Procter & Gamble 2009 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan, but the Committee has delegated to the CEO the authority to make certain equity grants to non-principal officers, subject to the specific terms and conditions determined by the C&LD Committee. This Committee retains an independent compensation consultant, hired directly by

the C&LD Committee, to advise it regarding executive compensation matters. The C&LD Committee’s charter can be found in the corporate governance section of the Company’s website at www.pginvestor.com.

The Governance & Public Responsibility Committee met 5 times during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. All members of the Governance & Public Responsibility Committee are independent under the NYSE listing standards and the Independence Guidelines. The Governance & Public Responsibility Committee has governance responsibilities set forth in its charter with respect to identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board; recommending when new members should be added to the Board and individuals to fill vacant Board positions; recommending to the Board the Director nominees for the next annual meeting of shareholders and whether to accept the resignation of any incumbent Director nominee who received a greater number of “against” votes than “for” votes in a non-contested election; recommending Board committees and committee assignments; periodically reviewing and recommending updates to the Corporate Governance Guidelines; educating the Board and the Company in applicable governance laws and regulations; assisting the Board and the Company in interpreting and applying the Corporate Governance Guidelines and other issues related to Board governance; and evaluating the Board and its members.

The Governance & Public Responsibility Committee’s charter can be found in the corporate governance section of the Company’s website at www.pginvestor.com.

The Innovation & Technology Committee met 2 times during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. All members of the Innovation & Technology Committee are independent under the NYSE listing standards and the Independence Guidelines. The Innovation & Technology Committee has the responsibilities set forth in its charter with respect to overseeing and providing counsel on matters of innovation and technology. Topics considered by this Committee include the Company’s approach to technical and commercial innovation; the innovation and technology acquisition process; and tracking systems important to successful innovation. The Innovation & Technology Committee’s charter can be found in the corporate governance section of the Company’s website at www.pginvestor.com.

Our Directors are active and engaged. Board agendas are set in advance by the Chairman of the Board and Presiding Director, to ensure that appropriate subjects are covered and that there is sufficient time for discussion. Directors are provided with comprehensive materials in advance of Board and Committee meetings and are expected to review and reflect on these materials before each meeting, to ensure that time in Board and Committee meetings is focused on robust and active discussions versus lengthy presentations. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, the Board held 10 meetings, and the Committees of the Board held 20 meetings, for a total of 30 meetings. Average attendance at these meetings by members of the Board during the past year exceeded 96%, and all Directors attended greater than 76% of the meetings of the Board and the Committees on which they serve. The Board expects all of its members to attend the annual meeting of shareholders; all Directors attended the October 8, 2013 annual meeting.

The non-employee members of the Board met 6 times during FY 2013-14 in executive session (without the presence of Mr. Lafley or other employees of the Company) to discuss various matters related to the oversight of the Company, the management of Board affairs, succession planning for the Company’s top management (including the CEO position), and the CEO’s performance.

The Board believes that service on the boards of other public companies provides valuable governance and leadership experience that ultimately benefits the Company. The Board also recognizes that outside public board service requires a significant commitment of time and attention, and therefore, in accordance with best governance practices, limits Director participation on other public boards. Under the Corporate Governance Guidelines, Directors who are active CEOs of other public companies may sit on no more than two additional outside public boards, and other non-employee Directors may sit on no more than three additional outside public boards. All Directors are in compliance with this policy. This practice helps ensure that our Directors can give appropriate levels of time and attention to the affairs of the Company. In addition, when nominating a Director for service on the Board, the Governance & Public Responsibility Committee considers whether the

nominee will have adequate time to serve as a Director of the Company. Each Director demonstrates their strong engagement and high attendance, and has adequate time to devote to the affairs of the Company.

The Board has determined that the following Directors are independent under the NYSE listing standards and the Independence Guidelines because they have only immaterial relationships with the Company: Angela F. Braly, Kenneth I. Chenault, Scott D. Cook, Susan Desmond-Hellmann, Terry J. Lundgren, W. James McNerney, Jr., Margaret C. Whitman, Mary Agnes Wilderotter, Patricia A. Woertz, and Ernesto Zedillo. All members of the Board’s Audit, Compensation & Leadership Development, Governance & Public Responsibility, and Innovation & Technology Committees are independent.

In making these independence determinations, the Board applied the NYSE listing standards and the categorical independence standards contained in the Independence Guidelines. Under the Independence Guidelines, certain relationships were considered immaterial and, therefore, were not considered by the Board in determining independence, but were reported to the Chair of the Governance & Public Responsibility Committee. Applying the NYSE listing standards and the Independence Guidelines, the Board determined that there are no transactions, relationships, or arrangements that would impair the independence or judgment of any of the Directors deemed independent by the Board.

Mr. Lafley is Chairman of the Board, President and CEO of the Company. As such, he cannot be deemed independent under the NYSE listing standards or the Independence Guidelines.

The Company has a code of ethics for its Directors, officers, and employees. The most recent version of this code of ethics, which is consistent with Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations and NYSE listing standards, is contained in the Worldwide Business Conduct Manual. The Worldwide Business Conduct Manual is reviewed each year for appropriate updates, and employees are asked to annually certify their understanding of, and compliance with, its requirements. The Worldwide Business Conduct Manual is firmly rooted in the Company’s long-standing Purpose, Values and Principles, which is made available to employees in 28 different languages and can be found on the Company’s website at www.pg.com.

The Worldwide Business Conduct Manual requires that all employees and Directors disclose all potential conflicts of interest and promptly take actions to eliminate any such conflict when the Company requests. In addition, the Company has adopted a written Related Person Transaction Policy that prohibits any of the Company’s executive officers, Directors, or any of their immediate family members from entering into a transaction with the Company, except in accordance with the policy.

Under our Related Person Transaction Policy, the Chief Legal Officer is charged with primary responsibility for determining whether, based on the facts and circumstances, a related person has a direct or indirect material interest in a proposed or existing transaction. To assist the Chief Legal Officer in making this determination, the policy sets forth certain categories of transactions that are deemed not to involve a direct or indirect material interest on behalf of the related person. If, after applying these categorical standards and weighing all of the facts and circumstances, the Chief Legal Officer determines that the related person would have a direct or indirect material interest in the transaction, the Chief Legal Officer must present the transaction to the Audit Committee for review or, if impracticable under the circumstances, to the Chair of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee must then either approve or reject the transaction in accordance with the terms of the policy. In the course of making this determination, the Audit Committee shall consider all relevant information available to it and, as appropriate, must take into consideration the following:

The Audit Committee may only approve the transaction if it determines that the transaction is not inconsistent with the best interests of the Company as a whole. Further, in approving any such transaction, the Audit Committee has the authority to impose any terms or conditions it deems appropriate on the Company or the related person. Absent this approval, no such transaction may be entered into by the Company with any related person.

Jon R. Moeller, the Company’s CFO, is married to Lisa Sauer, a long-tenured employee of the Company who currently holds the position of Vice President–Product Supply, Global Home Care. Her total compensation in the last year was approximately $855,000, consisting of salary, bonus, equity grants, and retirement benefits. Her compensation is consistent with the Company’s overall compensation principles based on her years of experience, performance, and position within the Company. Prior to Mr. Moeller becoming CFO, the Audit Committee approved the continued employment of Ms. Sauer with the Company under the Company’s Related Person Transaction Policy, concluding that her continued employment was not inconsistent with the best interests of the Company as a whole.

Deborah P. Majoras, the Company’s Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, is married to John M. Majoras, one of over 800 partners in the law firm of Jones Day. The Company has hired Jones Day, in the ordinary course of business, to perform legal services. The Company’s relationship with Jones Day dates back more than 25 years and significantly precedes Ms. Majoras joining the Company as Vice President and General Counsel in 2008 from the Federal Trade Commission, where she served as Chairman. Mr. Majoras does not receive any direct compensation from the fees paid to Jones Day by the Company, his ownership in the Jones Day law firm is significantly less than 1%, and the fees paid by the Company to Jones Day in the last fiscal year were significantly less than 1% of their annual revenues. Under the Company’s Related Person Transaction Policy, the Audit Committee reviewed and approved the continued use of Jones Day as a provider of legal services to the Company, but required the Company’s CEO to approve any recommendations by Ms. Majoras to hire Jones Day for a specific legal matter. In doing so, the Committee concluded that the Majorases did not have a direct or indirect material interest in the Company’s hiring of Jones Day and that the relationship is not inconsistent with the best interests of the Company as a whole.

Mark Biegger, the Company’s Chief Human Resources Officer (“CHRO”), has a brother, Brian Biegger, who is employed by the Company. Brian Biegger has been employed by the Company since 1983, well before Mark Biegger’s appointment as CHRO in 2012, and is currently an Associate Director–Global eBusiness in the SMO organization. Brian Biegger’s total annual compensation in the last year, consisting of salary, bonus, equity grants, and retirement benefits was approximately $365,000. His compensation is consistent with the Company’s overall compensation principles based on his years of experience, performance, and positions within the Company. The Committee determined that Brian has a direct material interest in his annual compensation but approved this transaction because it is not inconsistent with the best interests of the Company as a whole, and appropriate controls are in place to avoid any potential conflicts of interest.

Other than as noted above, there were no transactions, in which the Company or any of its subsidiaries was a participant, the amount involved exceeded $120,000, and any Director, Director nominee, executive officer, or any of their immediate family members had a direct or indirect material interest reportable under applicable SEC rules or that required approval of the Audit Committee under the Company’s Related Person Transaction Policy, nor are there any currently proposed.

Shareholders and others who wish to communicate with the Board or any particular Director, including the Presiding Director, or with any executive officer of the Company, may do so by email at boardofdirectors.im@pg.com or by writing to the following address:

All such correspondence is reviewed by the Corporate Secretary’s office, which logs the material for tracking purposes. The Board has asked the Corporate Secretary’s office to forward to the appropriate Director(s) all correspondence, except

Shareholder Recommendations of Board Nominees and Committee Process for Recommending Board Nominees

The Governance & Public Responsibility Committee will consider shareholder recommendations for candidates for the Board, which should be submitted to:

The minimum qualifications and preferred specific qualities and skills required for Directors are set forth in Article II, Sections B through E of the Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Committee considers all candidates using these criteria, regardless of the source of the recommendation. The Committee’s process for evaluating candidates also includes the considerations set forth in Article II, Section B of the Committee’s Charter. After initial screening for minimum qualifications, the Committee determines appropriate next steps, including requests for additional information, reference checks, and interviews with potential candidates. In addition to shareholder recommendations, the Committee also relies on recommendations from current Directors, Company personnel, and others. From time to time, the Committee may engage the services of outside search firms to help identify candidates. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, no such engagement existed (and none currently exists), and no funds were paid to outside parties in connection with the identification of nominees. All nominees for election as Directors who currently serve on the Board are known to the Committee and were recommended by the Committee to the Board as Director nominees.

Pursuant to the Company’s Code of Regulations, a shareholder wishing to nominate a candidate for election to the Board at an annual meeting of shareholders is required to give written notice to the Secretary of the Company of his or her intention to make such nomination. The notice of nomination must be received at the Company’s principal executive offices not less than 140 days nor more than 240 days prior to the one-year anniversary of the preceding year’s annual shareholder meeting. Certain other notice periods apply if the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date. Based on the one-year anniversary of the 2014 annual meeting, a shareholder wishing to nominate a candidate for election to the Board at the 2015 annual meeting must provide such notice no earlier than February 16, 2015, and no later than May 27, 2015.

As set forth in the Company’s Code of Regulations, the notice of nomination is required to contain information about both the nominee and the shareholder making the nomination, including information sufficient to allow the Governance & Public Responsibility Committee to determine if the candidate meets certain criteria. A nomination that does not comply with the requirements set forth in the Company’s Code of Regulations will not be considered for presentation at the annual meeting.

In addition to their availability on the Company’s website at www.pg.com, copies of the Company’s Amended Articles of Incorporation, the Company’s Code of Regulations, all Committee Charters, the Corporate Governance Guidelines (including Independence Guidelines, Confidentiality Policy and Financial Literacy and Expertise Guidelines), the Worldwide Business Conduct Manual, the Company’s Purpose, Values, and Principles and the Related Person Transaction Policy are available in print upon request by writing to the Corporate Secretary at One Procter & Gamble Plaza, Cincinnati, OH 45202-3315.

The objective of the C&LD Committee is to provide non-employee members of the Board a compensation package consistent with the size-adjusted median of the Peer Group. Directors can elect to receive any part of their fees or retainer (other than the grant of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”)) as cash, retirement restricted stock or unrestricted stock. Consistent with the practice of the past several years, the Company did not grant any stock options to Directors in FY 2013-14. Effective October 8, 2013, non-employee members of the Board receive the following compensation:

At its June 10, 2014 meeting, the Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the C&LD Committee, agreed to maintain the current Director compensation package.

Non-employee members of the Board must own Company stock and/or RSUs worth six times their annual cash retainer. A number of the non-employee Directors were appointed or elected to the Board within the last few years. However, all non-employee Directors either meet or are on track to meet the ownership requirements within the five-year period established by the C&LD Committee.

The following table and footnotes provide information regarding the compensation paid to the Company’s non-employee Directors in FY 2013-14. Directors who are employees of the Company receive no compensation for their service as Directors.

¹ Director fees are paid quarterly. Each director may elect to take these fees in cash, unrestricted stock, retirement restricted stock or a combination of the three. Restricted stock earns cash dividends that are paid quarterly with the option of reinvesting in Company stock. Ms. Braly elected to take $5,000 in cash, and the remaining $105,000 in unrestricted stock, which had a grant date fair value of $105,110. Mr. Chenault took $57,500 of his fees in cash, and the remainder in retirement restricted stock, which had a grant date fair value of $52,531. Mr. Cook took $5,000 of his fees in cash. He took $62,500 of his fees in retirement restricted stock, which had a grant date fair value of $62,543, and he took the remainder of his fees in unrestricted stock, which had a grant date fair value of $57,549. Mr. Lundgren took $5,000 of his fees in cash. He also elected to take $55,000 of his fees in unrestricted stock, which had a grant date fair value of $55,037, and he took the remainder of his fees in retirement restricted stock, which had a grant date fair value of $50,072. Mr. McNerney took his fees in unrestricted stock, which had a grant date fair value of $160,237. The remaining Directors took their fees in cash. Mr. Rodgers retired from the Board on October 8, 2013, and his retainer was prorated accordingly.

² Each year, upon election at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders, every Director is awarded a grant of RSUs with a grant date fair value of $175,000. These RSUs vest after one year as long as the Director remains on the Board, and earn dividend equivalents that are subject to the same vesting provision as the underlying RSUs and are accrued in the form of additional RSUs each quarter and credited to each Director’s holdings. The RSUs are ultimately deliverable in shares. Due to Mr. Rodgers’ impending retirement, he did not stand for election at the 2013 meeting, and was therefore not entitled to the 2013-14 award. In addition to 2,346 RSUs (representing the grant on October 8, 2013 and subsequent dividend equivalents), the following Directors have shares of retirement restricted stock outstanding as of June 30, 2014: Ms. Braly (4,992 shares); Mr. Chenault (5,093 shares); Mr. Cook (9,948 shares); Mr. Lundgren (629 shares); Mr. McNerney (3,972 shares); and Mr. Zedillo (3,883 shares). Also, Messrs. Cook, Rodgers and Zedillo have 7,790, 3,760, and 3,760 option awards outstanding, respectively.

³ For one of the Board meetings during the year, the Company incurred cost associated with providing a minor commemorative item valued at $222. For all Board meetings throughout the fiscal year, Directors were entitled to bring a guest so long as the Director used the Company aircraft to attend the meeting and the guest’s attendance did not result in any incremental aircraft costs. Directors and their guests are also covered under the same insurance policy as all Company employees for accidental death while traveling on Company business (coverage is $750,000 for each Director and $300,000 for a guest). The incremental cost to the Company for this benefit is $2,469. In addition, the Company maintains a Charitable Awards Program for current and retired Directors who were participants prior to July 1, 2003. Under this program, at their death, the Company donates $1,000,000 per Director to up to five qualifying charitable organizations selected by each Director. Directors derive no financial benefit from the program because the charitable deductions accrue solely to the Company. The Company funds this contribution from general corporate assets and made no payments during FY 2013-14. This program was discontinued for any new Director effective July 1, 2003. In FY 2013-14, the Company made a $500 donation on behalf of each Director to the Children’s Safe Drinking Water Program or to a different charity of their choice. These donations were also funded from general corporate assets, and the Directors derive no financial benefit from these donations because the charitable deductions accrue solely to the Company. As an employee Director, Mr. Lafley did not receive a retainer, fees, or a stock award. Mr. Lafley attended Board meetings and activities as described above, and, in conjunction with those meetings, received the minor commemorative item.

The Compensation & Leadership Development Committee of the Board of Directors has reviewed and discussed the following section of this proxy statement entitled “Compensation Discussion & Analysis” with management. Based on this review and discussion, the Committee has recommended to the Board that the section entitled “Compensation Discussion & Analysis,” as it appears on the following pages, be included in this proxy statement and incorporated by reference into the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.

This compensation discussion and analysis explains the Company’s compensation philosophies and programs. The focus of the analysis is on the Company’s named executive officers (“NEOs”) for FY 2013-14: A.G. Lafley, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer; Jon R. Moeller, Chief Financial Officer; Werner Geissler, Vice Chairman–Global Operations; Martin Riant, Group President–Global Baby, Feminine and Family Care; and Giovanni Ciserani, Group President –Global Fabric and Home Care.

Effective July 1, 2014, Mr. Geissler, formerly Vice Chairman—Global Operations, was named Vice Chairman–Advisor to the Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer. In this capacity, he will continue to report to Mr. Lafley until his future retirement date, which is expected to occur no later than June 30, 2015 and will be based on business need and mutual agreement.

Our fundamental business objective is to create value for shareholders at leadership levels, on a consistent long-term basis. Our primary compensation principle, Pay for Performance, supports this objective. We align the compensation for our senior executives with the delivery of balanced, consistent, and sustainable growth and value creation.

We use a combination of three programs that incent executives to achieve results in a balanced way over the short-, medium-, and long-term.

The portion of compensation tied to each of these programs is balanced proportionately with the business goals we are trying to achieve, so that our executives remain focused on the right priorities. In total, about 75% of NEO compensation is tied to Company performance via these programs. The remainder, about 25%, is in base salary, retirement, expatriate allowances, and other benefits. This allocation ensures that executives make decisions that are appropriately focused on the long-term health and success of the Company.

1 The STAR Bonus is considered a cash program. However, participants may elect to receive their bonus in equity instead of cash.

We are disciplined in implementing this compensation strategy as evidenced by our track record over many years. While we strive to deliver or over-deliver our targets each year, if results fall short of our goals, this is reflected in the compensation paid. For example, in the last 15 years, the average STAR payout has been below target 40% of the time,

which reflected the business results versus our goals in those years. The strength of our pay-for-performance alignment is also evidenced by the payouts under our PSP program. In FY 2012-13, PSP delivered shares at only 20% of target. This year, PSP paid out at 26% of target. This is consistent with our three-year results, which are below target.

In addition to the discipline we exercise in the design and execution of compensation programs that are tightly aligned to business results, our executives exhibit strong ownership behavior, which is indicative of the culture of ownership at Procter & Gamble. Our executives are required to own shares valued at a minimum of four to eight times their salary. Each of our NEOs exceeds these requirements. We are proud of this ownership behavior and believe it further aligns the interest of our executives with the long-term interests of our shareholders. These investors typically do not invest in our stock looking for only a short-term gain, but are looking for longer-term returns. The majority of our investors hold our stock for longer periods versus our peer group, and investors in consumer goods have a tendency to hold longer than in other industries. Again, our fundamental business objective is to create value for shareholders, at leadership levels, on a consistent long-term basis.

The Company’s focus for FY 2013-14 was on the execution of four key strategic priorities to drive value creation: strengthen core developed market business, maintain developing-market momentum, build a strong innovation program, and drive cost savings and productivity improvements. We delivered at target on all key financial metrics.

1 Please see Exhibit A for a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures, including Core EPS Growth, Organic Sales Growth, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Productivity.

Organic Sales Growth was 3%. This was at the low end of the target range, as market growth softened. Market share was about flat versus prior year. Core EPS Growth was 5%. This was at the low end of the target range due to the negative impact of foreign exchange (-9% or -$1.0 billion), the second largest foreign exchange impact in Company history.

The Company took two broad steps to address the challenges faced from foreign exchange and slower market growth. First, where feasible, the Company increased prices. Second, the Company accelerated work on cost savings across all elements of cost – cost of goods sold, non-manufacturing overhead, and marketing. The Company delivered $1.6 billion in cost of goods savings, spanning materials, logistics, and manufacturing. This exceeded the going-in plan by $200 million, and the committed target by $400 million.

The Company continued to accelerate overhead reduction. In February 2012, we announced a targeted 10% reduction of non-manufacturing enrollment by June 2016. As of July 1, 2014, we have reduced roles by 16%, more than 50% ahead of the original objective, two years sooner.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow Productivity was 86%, consistent with target. These cash results enabled a 7% increase in quarterly dividend and $6 billion in share repurchase. For the fiscal year, the Company effectively returned nearly $13 billion to shareholders.

The Chief Executive Officer’s compensation is determined by the C&LD Committee with objective input from the C&LD Committee’s independent compensation consultant, Frederic W. Cook & Co. The C&LD Committee reviews and considers the following when making compensation decisions for the Chief Executive Officer:

The C&LD Committee set Mr. Lafley’s compensation for FY 2013-14 when he was re-hired in May 2013 and has periodically reviewed those compensation decisions during the fiscal year. When setting Mr. Lafley’s compensation, the C&LD Committee reviewed the total compensation opportunity for chief executive officers in the Peer Group (as defined on page 26). They determined that Mr. Lafley’s total compensation opportunity for FY 2012-13 would have been $19,000,000, reflecting his considerable experience and demonstrated results as the Company’s previous Chief Executive Officer, as well as the relative size and value of the Company within the Peer Group. Of that $19,000,000, $2,000,000 was allocated to annual salary, $5,000,000 to annual cash bonus opportunity, and $12,000,000 to long-term incentive opportunity.

Our executive compensation practices support good governance and mitigate excessive risk-taking.

In October 2013, shareholders approved the Company’s Say on Pay proposal, with 96.39% of votes cast in favor of the compensation paid to the NEOs. The Company considers this vote a positive endorsement of its executive compensation practices and decisions. The shareholders’ overwhelming support of the Company’s executive compensation program is one factor that contributed to the C&LD Committee’s decision not to make significant changes to the Company’s current executive compensation programs, principles, and policies. In addition, the Company routinely engages with investors to understand their issues and perspectives on the Company, including executive compensation practices. The C&LD Committee will continue to consider results from the annual shareholder advisory votes, including the next vote on October 14, 2014, as well as other shareholder input, when reviewing executive compensation programs, principles, and policies.

We design compensation programs to motivate executives to achieve the Company’s fundamental and overriding objective – to create value for our shareholders at leadership levels on a consistent long-term basis. As such, we encourage shareholders to support the Company’s advisory Say on Pay resolution, which can be found on page 63 of this proxy statement.

Our fundamental and overriding objective is to create value for our shareholders at leadership levels on a consistent long-term basis. To accomplish this goal, the C&LD Committee designs executive compensation programs that:

Our executive compensation program consists of four key components: salary, STAR, and two long-term incentive equity programs – PSP and the Key Manager Stock Grant. These four components constitute approximately 87% on average of each NEO’s total compensation. The remaining 13% consists of retirement and other benefits.

We design our programs so that NEO compensation varies by type (fixed versus performance-based), length of performance period (short-term versus long-term), and form (cash versus equity). We believe that such variation is necessary to: (1) strike the appropriate balance between short- and long-term business goals; (2) encourage appropriate behaviors and discourage excessive risk-taking; and (3) align the interests of the Company’s executives with our shareholders.

While salary is considered fixed, salary progression over time is based on individual performance. The remaining compensation components vary based on the performance of the individual, the performance of the individual’s business unit, and the performance of the Company as a whole. This mix of components is designed to incent both individual accountability and collaboration to build long-term shareholder value. The charts below show the average mix of the key components of FY 2013-14 NEO compensation by type, length, and form.

Consistent with our design principles, performance-based programs pay out at 100% when goals are achieved. Payouts below 100% occur when goals are not achieved, and payouts above 100% are possible when goals are exceeded. For example, over the previous 10 years, the average STAR payout for NEOs ranged from a low of 84% of target to a high of 147% of target, and the Company’s long-term performance program payout ranged from a low of 20% of target to a high of 200% of target. These payouts were based on the results achieved as compared to the pre-established performance targets, highlighting the clear link between pay and performance that underlies our compensation programs.

The C&LD Committee structures executive compensation so that total targeted annual cash and long-term compensation opportunities are competitive with the targets for comparable positions at 25 companies considered to be our peers, based on criteria described below (“Peer Group”). The C&LD Committee sets targets for each element of compensation considering the same elements of compensation paid to those holding similar jobs at companies in our Peer Group, focusing on positions with similar management and revenue responsibility. The C&LD Committee makes appropriate adjustments for differences in revenue size within the Peer Group. For the CEO’s compensation analysis, the C&LD Committee considers the Company’s revenue and market capitalization compared to our Peer Group.

The Peer Group is objectively determined and consists of global companies that generally meet the following criteria:

Each year, the C&LD Committee evaluates and, if appropriate, updates the composition of the Peer Group. Changes to the Peer Group are carefully considered and made infrequently to assure continuity from year to year. For FY 2013-14, there were no changes. The Peer Group currently consists of the following companies:

While the target total compensation for our NEOs is set considering the size-adjusted median target total compensation within our Peer Group, actual compensation varies depending on the NEO’s experience in the particular role, as well as total Company, business unit, and individual performance. Consistent with our principles to pay for performance and pay competitively, substantial differences may exist among NEOs’ pay.

To reinforce the importance of stock ownership and long-term focus for our most senior executives, including the NEOs, the C&LD Committee established the Executive Share Ownership Program and Stock Option Exercise Holding Requirement.

The Executive Share Ownership Program requires the CEO to own shares of Company stock and/or RSUs (including granted Performance Stock Units (“PSUs”)) valued at a minimum of eight times salary. Mr. Lafley currently holds 20 times salary. All other NEOs must own stock and/or RSUs (including granted PSUs) valued at a minimum of four or five times salary, depending on the NEO’s role. The C&LD Committee annually reviews these holdings, and in 2014 each NEO exceeded these requirements.

The Stock Option Exercise Holding Requirement ensures executives remain focused on sustained shareholder value even after exercising their stock options. The holding requirement applies when an executive, including an NEO, has not met the ownership requirements of the Executive Share Ownership Program. When the holding requirement applies, the CEO is required to hold the net shares received from stock option exercises for at least two years, and the other NEOs are required to hold net shares received from option exercises for at least one year. The holding requirement does not apply to incentive plan awards that executives elect to take as stock options instead of cash or unrestricted stock.

The Company’s annual cash compensation consists of salary and STAR. We collect and analyze data from the Peer Group on the total annual cash compensation opportunity (salary plus annual bonus target) for positions comparable to those at the Company. We consider the target median annual cash compensation opportunity for each position within our peer group, adjusted for size using a regression analysis of Peer Group revenues, to set a salary range mid-point and a target for STAR, as a percentage of salary (“STAR Target”).

Mr. Lafley’s annualized salary remained at $2,000,000 for FY 2013-14. The salaries for Messrs. Moeller and Geissler remained unchanged at $850,000 and $1,045,000, respectively. The C&LD Committee approved a 5.7% increase to bring Mr. Riant’s salary up to $920,000, and a 7.0% increase to bring Mr. Ciserani’s salary up to $760,000, each in recognition of their continued strong performance and their increased sector responsibilities as Group President–Global Baby, Feminine and Family Care and Group President–Global Fabric and Home Care, respectively.

The STAR program links a substantial portion of each NEO’s annual cash compensation to the Company’s performance for the fiscal year. The program focuses on the achievement of business unit results, but also includes a component that measures the performance of the Company as a whole. STAR awards are generally paid in cash, but executives can elect to receive their awards in RSUs, stock options, or deferred compensation.

The Business Unit Performance Factor for NEOs who lead sectors is based on the combined results of each of the smaller business units for which the NEO is ultimately responsible. For example, the Business Unit Performance Factor for the Group President–Global Fabric and Home Care, consists of the weighted combination of the Business Unit Performance Factors of the individual Business Units within Global Fabric

combination of the Business Unit Performance Factors of the individual Business Units within Global Fabric and Home Care. There are no separate performance goals for Global Fabric and Home Care for purposes of compensation.

While the formula described above is used to calculate potential STAR awards, the C&LD Committee retains the authority to make no STAR award in a given year and the discretion to accept, modify, or reject management’s recommendations for any or all employees, including the NEOs.

Upon Mr. Lafley’s return to the CEO position in May 2013, the C&LD Committee set Mr. Lafley’s STAR Target at 250% of salary for FY 2013-14. The C&LD Committee increased the STAR Targets for the other NEOs to 120% of salary to provide total targeted annual cash compensation opportunity and mix of incentive pay in line with other officers with similar roles in the Peer Group, as well as to better incent short-term performance.

At the beginning of FY 2013-14, the C&LD Committee established Organic Sales Growth and Core EPS Growth targets of 3.5% and 6%, respectively, to be used to compute the FY 2013-14 Company Performance Factor, and established a payout matrix that would generate a Company Performance Factor between 70% and 130% depending on the actual Organic Sales and Core EPS Growth achieved. Both Organic Sales Growth and Core EPS Growth were slightly below target at 3.1% and 5%, respectively, resulting in a Total Company Performance Factor of 88%.

The C&LD Committee then reviewed the recommendations provided for the 21 different Business Unit Performance Factors and, after considering the performance of the total Company and the appropriate combination of Business Unit Performance Factors for each NEO, approved the following STAR awards:

The C&LD Committee determined that a STAR award of $4,400,000 for Mr. Lafley, which was equal to 88% of his STAR Target and in line with the Company’s average award, was appropriate. With input from Mr. Lafley, the C&LD Committee also determined an appropriate award for Mr. Moeller would be $897,600, which is in line with the 88% Company average.

The STAR awards recommended to the C&LD Committee for Messrs. Geissler, Riant, and Ciserani were computed using the formula described on page 27 of this proxy statement. For Mr. Geissler, the C&LD Committee determined that an award in line with the Company’s average award of 88% was appropriate based on his role in managing the Company’s overall results. For Messrs. Riant and Ciserani, the C&LD approved awards that were computed using Business Unit Performance Factors based on the businesses included in the sectors that they manage.

based on a weighted average of the Family and Feminine Care results. Mr. Riant’s Business Unit Performance Factor was 87% as a result of the combination of the slightly below-target Baby Care results combined with the weighted average of the Family and Feminine Care results, which was also slightly below target.

As the leader of the Fabric and Home Care sector, half of Mr. Ciserani’s Business Unit Performance Factor is based on the Fabric Care business that he directly manages, while the remainder of the factor is based on the average of the other businesses in the Fabric and Home Care sector: Home Care, Power, and Professional. Based on the combination of the slightly below-target Fabric Care results and the well above-target results of the other businesses in the sector, Mr. Ciserani’s Business Unit Performance Factor is 117%.

The majority of the NEOs’ compensation is delivered through two long-term incentive programs tied to Company performance: the PSP and the Key Manager Stock Grant.

The C&LD Committee uses competitive market data to set total long-term compensation targets considering the median total long-term compensation of comparable positions in the Peer Group, regressed for revenue size.

The CEO recommends NEO grants to the C&LD Committee based on benchmarked long-term compensation targets, adjusted for business results and individual contributions attributable to each NEO and including that individual’s leadership skills. These recommendations can be up to 50% above or 50% below the benchmarked target.

The C&LD Committee retains full authority to accept, modify, or reject these recommendations. In exceptional cases, no grant will be awarded. Approximately half of each NEO’s long-term compensation is allocated to PSP via an Initial PSU Grant (as defined below). The remaining portion is a Key Manager Stock Grant. The final grant date fair value of the awards may not reflect an approximately 50/50 split between PSP and Key Manager Stock Grant due to the final accounting valuations for stock awards (PSUs and RSUs) versus stock options.

The PSP aligns the interests of the NEOs with shareholders by encouraging NEOs to focus on the aspects of the long-term performance of the Company that create shareholder value. In the first year of each three-year performance period, the C&LD Committee grants PSUs to participants (“Initial PSU Grant”). The number of PSUs that vest at the end of the performance period will depend on Company results over the three-year period.

The C&LD Committee sets targets at the beginning of each performance period for the following categories (“Performance Categories”): Organic Sales Growth, Before-Tax Operating Profit Growth, Core EPS Growth, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Productivity. The C&LD Committee then assigns a minimum and maximum for each Performance Category. At the end of the three-year performance period, each Performance Category will have a Performance Factor between 0% and 200%, depending on results achieved in each category. The Performance Factor will be 100% if the business results for the category are at target. Business results falling between the minimum and maximum levels are determined via linear interpolation. Using a sliding scale to reward performance, as opposed to “all or nothing” goals, discourages participants from taking unnecessary risks to ensure a final payment under the program. At the end of each three-year performance period, the C&LD Committee multiplies the average of the four Performance Factors by the Initial PSU Grant to determine the vested PSUs. The formula is as follows:

The vested PSUs are delivered in shares of Common Stock to the applicable participant following the end of the Performance Period, provided the NEO was an employee on June 30th following the grant date of the PSUs. Participants may elect to defer receipt of the shares of Common Stock by choosing to instead receive RSUs.

The Key Manager Stock Grant is the second component of the Company’s long-term incentive compensation for its senior executives. These awards are generally granted in stock options, but executives can elect to receive all or a portion of their grant in RSUs, with the exception of the CEO, whose grant form and amount is solely determined by the C&LD Committee. Stock options are not exercisable (do not vest) until three years from the date of grant and expire ten years from the date of grant, or earlier as related to certain termination events. Vested RSUs are delivered in shares of Common Stock five years from the date of grant. In addition, NEOs must be employed on the June 30th following the grant date to retain the awards. These awards focus executives on the long-term success of the Company, and the vesting restrictions enhance retention because employees who voluntarily resign from the Company during the specified vesting periods forfeit their grants.

The following long-term incentive grants were made in FY 2013-14. These grants are reported using grant date fair value, but the actual compensation realized by each NEO will be determined by future Company performance.

The C&LD Committee approved total long-term incentives for Mr. Lafley in line with the $19,000,000 total compensation opportunity determined in May 2013 when Mr. Lafley re-assumed the role of CEO. When setting Mr. Lafley’s total compensation opportunity, the C&LD Committee considered his considerable experience and demonstrated results as the Company’s previous Chief Executive Officer, as well as the relative size and value of the Company within the Peer Group.

The C&LD Committee approved an increase of approximately 10% in total long-term incentives for Mr. Moeller, which is slightly above the median long-term compensation opportunity of other CFOs in the Peer Group for companies of similar size. This increase reflects Mr. Moeller’s performance as CFO and his contributions to Company results.

The C&LD Committee approved an increase of approximately 5% in total long-term incentives for Mr. Geissler to maintain his position at the size-adjusted median long-term compensation opportunity of similar positions in our Peer Group. In addition, the total long-term incentives for Messrs. Riant and Ciserani were increased by approximately 19% to recognize strong performance and their increased sector responsibilities in their roles as Group Presidents.

In conjunction with deciding the amount and allocation of the NEOs’ long-term incentive opportunities for FY 2013-14, the C&LD Committee set the PSP Performance Factors listed below. The delivery of results against these factors will determine the ultimate payout for this portion of compensation.

¹ Organic Sales Growth will be based on the percentile rank within the corporate competitive peer group of the 3-year compound annual growth rate.

² Before Tax Operating Profit will be based on the 3-year compound annual growth rate.

⁴ Adjusted Free Cash Flow Productivity achieved will be based on the 3-year sum of Operating Cash Flow less the sum of Capital Expenditures divided by the sum of the Net Earnings.

In addition to setting the Performance Goals for the next three years, the C&LD Committee reviewed the results for the Performance Period (July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2014). The C&LD Committee reviewed these results against the goals established at the beginning of the Performance Period to determine the realized pay.

¹ Organic Sales Growth is based on the percentile rank within the corporate competitive peer group of the 3-year compound annual growth rate.

² Before Tax Operating Profit Growth is based on the 3-year compound annual growth rate.

⁴ Adjusted Free Cash Flow Productivity achieved is based on the 3-year sum of Operating Cash Flow less the sum of Capital Expenditures divided by the sum of the Net Earnings.

Based on the results delivered, the NEOs, except for Mr. Lafley — who did not receive a FY 2011-12 PSP grant — received PSP payouts at 26% of target, which resulted in the following PSU awards for each NEO. This PSP payout reinforces the pay-for-performance design of the PSP.

¹ Mr. Lafley did not receive a PSU grant in FY 2011-12. He began participating in the PSP program in FY 2013-14.

² The value of PSUs granted and awarded was calculated by multiplying the number of PSUs by the Company stock price as of June 30, 2014. These PSUs will deliver in shares of Common Stock or RSUs (as elected by the participants) in August 2014.

On rare occasions, the C&LD Committee makes special equity grants in the form of restricted stock or RSUs to senior executives to encourage retention of the talent necessary to manage the Company successfully or to recognize superior performance. At the beginning of the fiscal year, on August 13, 2013, the C&LD Committee granted Mr. Moeller a $1,000,000 retention award to be paid in RSUs. Half of this award is forfeitable until August 13, 2016, and the remainder of the award is forfeitable until August 13, 2018.

The Procter & Gamble Profit Sharing Trust and Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“PST”) is the Company’s primary retirement program for U.S.-based employees. The PST is a qualified defined contribution plan providing retirement benefits for full-time U.S. employees, including the NEOs. Under the PST, the Company makes an annual contribution of cash, which is used to purchase Company stock that is credited to each participant’s PST account, upon which dividends are earned. The amount of the stock grant varies based upon individual salaries and years of service.

Some participants in PST (including the NEOs) do not receive their full contribution due to federal tax limitations. As a result, they participate in the nonqualified PST Restoration Program. These individuals receive RSUs valued at an amount equal to the difference between the contribution made under PST and what would have otherwise been contributed under PST but for the tax limitations. Participants are vested in their PST accounts after five years, and similarly their PST Restoration RSUs become non-forfeitable after five years.

In addition, some individuals who should participate in the PST are ineligible due to their work location (including Messrs. Geissler and Ciserani). As a result, they participate in the nonqualified International Retirement Plan (“IRP”). These individuals receive RSUs valued at an amount equal to the contribution that would have otherwise been contributed under PST had they been eligible to participate in the PST. Participants are vested in their PST accounts after five years, and similarly their IRP RSUs become non-forfeitable after five years.

The PST, the PST Restoration Program, and the IRP have created ownership at all levels of the Company. These programs continue to serve the Company and its shareholders well by focusing employees on the long-term success of the business.

For non-U.S.-based employees, individual country plans provide retirement benefits. In addition, employees who work in multiple countries during their careers may also be eligible for supplemental benefits under the Global International Retirement Arrangement (“IRA”). Messrs. Geissler, Riant, and Ciserani participate in this program.

The Company provides certain other limited benefits to senior executives to fulfill particular business purposes, which are primarily for convenience and personal security. No changes were made to executive benefits over the past year, and the Company continues to manage executive benefits as a very small percentage (2%) of total compensation for the NEOs during FY 2013-14.

Benefits that safeguard senior executives, such as home security systems, secured workplace parking, and an annual physical health examination, are available to NEOs, as needed. While Company aircraft are generally used for Company business only, for security reasons the Chief Executive Officer is required by the Board to use Company aircraft for all air travel, including personal travel. To increase executive efficiency, in limited circumstances, NEOs may travel to outside board meetings on Company aircraft as part of a longer business trip. In addition, if a Company aircraft flight is already scheduled for business purposes and can accommodate additional passengers, NEOs and their spouse/guests may join flights for personal travel. To the extent any travel on Company aircraft (e.g. personal/spouse/guest travel) results in imputed income to the NEO, the NEO is responsible for paying the taxes on that income and the Company does not provide separate gross-up payments based on the NEO’s personal income tax due. We also reimburse NEOs for the cost of some tax preparation and financial counseling to minimize distractions, keep NEOs’ attention focused on Company business, and assure accurate personal tax reporting. To remain competitive and retain our top executives, we offer executive group whole life insurance coverage (equal to annual salary rate plus STAR Target up to $5,000,000). Also, to further increase executive efficiency, we provide limited local transportation within Cincinnati. Finally, Mr. Lafley receives an allowance intended to cover costs associated with a temporary residence and other living expenses due to having his permanent residence in Florida, but needing to work in Cincinnati. The C&LD Committee reviews these arrangements regularly to assure they continue to fulfill business needs and remain reasonable versus market practice.

This additional information may assist the reader in better understanding the Company’s compensation practices and principles.

The C&LD Committee renewed its agreement with Frederic W. Cook & Co., to advise it on various compensation matters, including Peer Group identification, competitive practices and trends, specific program design, and actions with respect to NEO and principal officer compensation. Prior to the renewal, the C&LD Committee evaluated the independence of Frederic W. Cook & Co., taking into account any relationships with the Company’s directors, officers, and employees in accordance with NYSE listing standards. Based on this evaluation, the C&LD Committee concluded Frederic W. Cook & Co. is an independent advisor. Under the terms of its agreement with the C&LD Committee, Frederic W. Cook & Co. is prohibited from doing any other business for the Company or its management, and the C&LD Committee has direct responsibility for oversight and compensation of the work performed by Frederic W. Cook & Co. The C&LD Committee generally meets with its independent compensation consultant in an Executive Session at regularly scheduled C&LD Committee meetings.

Company management uses a separate compensation consultant, Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC, to provide compensation advice, competitive survey analysis, and other benchmark information related to trends and competitive practices in executive compensation.

The C&LD Committee believes employment contracts for executives are not necessary, because most executives have spent the majority of their professional careers with the Company and have developed a focus on the Company’s long-term success. Moreover, the C&LD Committee does not provide special executive severance payments, such as golden parachutes, to its executives. In the event the Company encourages an NEO, or any other U.S. employee, to terminate employment with the Company (but not for cause), that individual may receive a separation allowance of up to one year’s annual salary, calculated based on years of service.

Generally, the Company does not increase payments to any employees, including NEOs, to cover non-business-related personal income taxes. However, certain expatriate allowances, relocation reimbursements, and tax equalization

payments are made to employees assigned to work outside their home countries, and the Company will cover the personal income taxes due on these items in accordance with expatriate policy because there is a business purpose. In addition, from time to time, the Company may be required to pay personal income taxes for certain separating executives hired through acquisitions in conjunction with pre-existing contractual obligations.

All grants of stock options, PSUs, restricted stock and/or RSUs made to employees after October 13, 2009, are made under The Procter & Gamble 2009 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (as amended) (“2009 Plan”). The 2009 Plan was approved by Company shareholders at the October 13, 2009, annual shareholder meeting. Previous grants were made under The Procter & Gamble 2001 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (as amended) (“2001 Plan”) and The Gillette Company 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2004 Gillette Plan”). The 2001 Plan was approved by Company shareholders. The 2004 Gillette Plan was approved by Gillette shareholders and adopted by the Company in 2005 as part of our merger with The Gillette Company.

The 2009 Plan contains a vesting provision commonly known as a “second trigger,” which limits accelerated vesting in the event of a change in control. Time-based awards assumed as part of a change in control would only vest for involuntary terminations of employment for reasons other than cause and for terminations of employment for good reason.

With the exception of any special equity awards discussed on page 32 of this proxy statement, the Company grants stock, PSUs, RSUs, and stock options on dates that are consistent from year to year. If the C&LD Committee changes a grant date, it is done in advance and only after careful review and discussion. The pre-established grant dates for the programs are as follows: PST Restoration and IRP, first Thursday in August; STAR, last business day on or before September 15; and PSP and Key Manager Stock Grants, last business day of February (and, if necessary for corrections, on the last business day on or before May 9).

The Company has never re-priced stock options and is not permitted to do so without prior shareholder approval. The Company does not backdate stock options. We use the closing price of the Common Stock on the date of grant to determine the grant price for executive compensation awards. However, because the PST uses the value of shares based on the average price of Common Stock for the last five days in June, the grants of RSUs made under the PST Restoration Program and IRP follow this same grant price practice.

The C&LD Committee’s Senior Executive Officer Recoupment Policy permits the C&LD Committee to recoup or “clawback” STAR or long-term incentive program payments made to executives in the event of a significant restatement of financial results for any reason. This authority is in addition to the C&LD Committee’s authority under the 2001 Plan and the 2009 Plan to suspend or terminate any outstanding stock options if the C&LD Committee determines that the participant violated certain plan provisions. Moreover, the 2009 Plan has a clawback provision that allows the Company or the C&LD Committee to recover certain proceeds from option exercises or delivery of shares if the participant violates certain plan provisions.

The STAR program and PSP use balanced weighting of multiple performance metrics to determine the payout. This discourages excessive risk-taking by removing any incentive to focus on one goal to the detriment of others. STAR and PSP are described on pages 27-32 of this proxy statement.

The Company’s Insider Trading Policy prohibits NEOs from engaging in derivative transactions involving Company stock, including pledging, collars, short sales, hedging investments, and other derivative transactions. Purchases and sales of Company stock by NEOs can only be made during the one-month period following public earnings announcements or, if outside these window periods, with express permission from the Company’s Legal Division or in accordance with a previously established trading plan that meets SEC requirements.

The Procter & Gamble Company Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (“EDCP”) allows executives to defer receipt of up to 100% of their STAR awards and/or up to 75% of their annual salary (an increase from 50%). Executives may also elect to convert a portion of their PST Restoration RSUs into notional cash with investment choices that mirror those available to all U.S. employees who participate in the Company’s 401(k) plan. No above-market or preferential interest is credited on deferred compensation, as those terms are defined by the SEC.

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limits the Company deductibility of executive compensation paid to certain NEOs to $1,000,000 per year, but contains an exception for certain performance-based compensation. Stock options awarded under the Key Manager Stock Grant, as well as awards granted under STAR and PSP programs, satisfy the performance-based requirements for deductible compensation.

While the C&LD Committee’s general policy is to preserve the deductibility of compensation paid to the NEOs, the C&LD Committee nevertheless authorizes payments that might not be deductible if it believes they are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. In addition, in certain years, individuals may receive non-deductible payments resulting from awards made prior to becoming an NEO.

The C&LD Committee reviewed the competitiveness of total annual cash compensation for the CEO, CFO, and Vice Chairman at its June 10, 2014, meeting. As a result, the C&LD Committee made no changes to the salary or STAR Target for Messrs. Lafley, Moeller and Geissler. In addition, the C&LD Committee did not make any decisions in the June 30, 2014 meeting that impacted Messrs. Riant’s or Ciserani’s compensation.

The following tables, footnotes, and narratives provide information regarding the compensation, benefits, and equity holdings in the Company for the NEOs.

The following table and footnotes provide information regarding the compensation of the NEOs, for the fiscal years shown.

¹ For FY 2013-14, Bonus reflects 2013-14 STAR awards that will be paid on September 15, 2014. Each NEO that participated in STAR can elect to take his STAR award in cash, deferred compensation, RSUs, or stock options. For FY 2013-14, Mr. Lafley chose to take his STAR award as deferred compensation. Messrs. Geissler and Riant elected Stock Options. The other NEOs took their awards in cash.

² For FY 2013-14, Stock Awards include the grant date fair value of any PST Restoration Program and International Retirement Plan awards and the PSUs granted in February 2014 under the PSP. For Messrs. Lafley, Moeller, and Riant, FY 2013-14 Stock Awards also include the grant date fair value of RSUs granted in February 2014 under the Key Manger Stock Grant. Mr. Moeller’s FY 2013-14 Stock Awards also includes the Special Equity Award described on page 32. The fair value of these awards is determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Pursuant to SEC rules, the amounts shown exclude the impact of forfeitures related to service-based vesting conditions. Please see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information. For more information regarding these awards, including retention and vesting requirements and applicable performance measures, see pages 29-32 of the Compensation Discussion & Analysis.

³ Option Awards for FY 2013-14 include the grant date fair value of each Key Manager Stock Grant, determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Pursuant to SEC rules, the amounts shown exclude the impact of estimated forfeitures related to service-based vesting conditions. For additional information on the assumptions made in the valuation for the current year awards reflected in this column, please see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For information on the valuation assumptions with respect to grants made in prior fiscal years, please see the corresponding note to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report for the respective fiscal year. For more information regarding these awards, including retention and vesting requirements and applicable performance measures, see page 30 of the Compensation Discussion & Analysis.

⁴ This column reflects aggregate changes in the actuarial present value of Messrs. Geissler’s, Riant’s, and Ciserani’s pension benefits under all defined benefit and actuarial pension plans. None of the other NEOs has a pension plan. None of the NEOs had above-market earnings on deferred compensation.

⁵ Please see the table below for information on the numbers that comprise the All Other Compensation column.

⁶ Mr. Lafley’s total compensation for FY 2012-13 reflects the time worked between May 23, 2013, when he was re-hired as CEO, and June 30, 2013.

ⁱ Amounts contributed by the Company pursuant to the PST, a qualified defined contribution plan providing retirement benefits for U.S.-based employees. NEOs also receive contributions in the form of RSU grants pursuant to the PST Restoration Program, a nonqualified defined contribution plan. Mr. Ciserani receives IRP RSUs in lieu of a PST contribution. These RSU awards are included in the Stock Awards column of the Summary Compensation Table.

ⁱⁱ Under the Executive Group Life Insurance Program (“EGLIP”), the Company offers key executives who have substantially contributed to the success and development of the business, and upon whom the future of the Company chiefly depends, life insurance coverage equal to salary plus their STAR target up to a maximum of $5,000,000. These policies are owned by the Company. Because premium payments are returned to the Company when the benefit is paid out, we believe the annual premiums paid by the Company overstate the Company’s true cost of providing this life insurance benefit. Accordingly, the amounts shown in the table are an average based on Internal Revenue Service tables used to value the term cost of such coverage for calendar year 2013 and calendar year 2014, which reflect what it would cost the executive to obtain the same coverage in a term life insurance policy. The average of the two calendar years was used because fiscal year data is not available. The average of the dollar value of the premiums actually paid by the Company in calendar years 2013 and 2014 under these policies were as follows: Mr. Lafley, $0, Mr. Moeller, $44,671, Mr. Geissler, $80,558, Mr. Riant, $41,598, and Mr. Ciserani, $33,557. This program is in addition to any other Company-provided group life insurance in which an NEO may enroll that is also available to all employees on the same basis.

ⁱⁱⁱ Flexible Compensation Program Contributions are given to U.S.-based employees in the form of credits to pay for coverage in a number of benefit plans including, but not limited to, medical insurance and additional life insurance. Employees may also receive unused credits as cash. Credits are earned based on PST years of service.

^iv The amounts shown are for fees paid by the Company for services provided to assist these executives with issues related to tax equalization payments and storage and delivery associated with past expatriate assignments, and for tax equalization payments made by the Company to cover incremental taxes required in connection with the NEO’s prior expatriate assignments. Mr. Lafley’s tax equalization payments resulted from his previous assignment in Japan. Mr. Geissler’s tax equalization payments resulted from his previous assignments in Japan and Switzerland. Mr. Riant’s payments for tax equalization and expatriate assignment expenses resulted from his current assignment in Singapore. Mr. Ciserani’s payments for expatriate assignment expenses resulted from his current assignment in Switzerland.

^v In addition, all NEOs are entitled to the following personal benefits: financial counseling (including tax preparation), an annual physical examination, occasional use of a Company car, secure workplace parking, and home security and monitoring. While Company aircraft is generally used for Company business only, the CEO is required to use Company aircraft for all air travel, including travel to outside board meetings and personal travel, pursuant to the Company’s executive security program established by the Board of Directors. While traveling on Company aircraft, the CEO may bring a limited number of guests (spouse, family member, or similar guest) to accompany him. The aggregate incremental aircraft usage costs associated with Mr. Lafley’s personal use of the Company aircraft during FY 2013-14, including the costs associated with travel to outside board meetings not fully reimbursed by the other company, and the costs associated with his travel between Florida and Cincinnati, due to his need to work in Cincinnati while retaining his primary residence in Florida, was $606,080. Messrs. Moeller, Geissler, Riant, and Ciserani are permitted to use the Company aircraft for travel to outside board meetings and, if the Company aircraft is already scheduled for business purposes and can accommodate additional passengers, may use it for personal travel and guest accompaniment. Mr. Geissler utilized the Company aircraft for personal travel and/or guest accompaniment when the aircraft was scheduled for business purposes, but there was no incremental cost to the Company associated with these trips. The incremental costs to the Company for these benefits, other than use of Company aircraft, are the actual costs or charges incurred by the Company for the benefits. The incremental cost to the Company for use of the Company aircraft is calculated by using an hourly rate for each flight hour. The hourly rate is based on the variable operational costs of each flight, including fuel, maintenance, flight crew travel expense, catering, communications and fees, including flight planning, ground handling and landing permits. For any flights that involved mixed personal and business usage, any personal usage hours that exceed the business usage are utilized to determine the incremental cost to the Company. Mr. Lafley also received a $200,000 payment to cover costs associated with a temporary Cincinnati residence and other living expenses due to having his primary residence in Florida.

^vi This total does not reflect a charitable donation of $10,000 made by the Company to the Children’s Safe Drinking Water Program on behalf of the Company’s Global Leadership Council, of which each NEO is a member. This donation was funded from general corporate assets, and the NEOs derived no financial benefits from this donation because this charitable deduction accrues solely to the Company.

The following table and footnotes provide information regarding grants of equity under Company plans made to the NEOs during FY 2013-14.

¹ Grant dates for equity awards are consistent from year to year, as described on page 34 of this proxy statement.

² The options granted were awarded using the closing price of the Company stock on the date of the grant.

³ This column reflects the grant date fair value of each award computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. For Stock Awards, the actual amount paid will be based on the stock price on the delivery date. For Options, the actual amount paid will be determined by multiplying the number of shares acquired by the difference between the market price of the Company’s common stock upon exercise and the grant price of the options.

⁴ These units will deliver in ten annual installments commencing February 28, 2019.

⁵ For awards granted under the Performance Stock Plan, see page 31 of the Compensation Discussion & Analysis for applicable performance measures. These units are forfeitable until the later of retirement eligibility or June 30^th after the grant date, and will deliver in shares in August 2016 unless elected otherwise by the NEO, subject to applicable tax rules and regulations.

⁶ These options are forfeitable until the later of retirement eligibility or June 30^th after the grant date, and will become exercisable on February 28, 2017, and expire on February 28, 2024.

⁷ These units are forfeitable until the later of retirement eligibility or June 30^th after the grant date, and will deliver in shares on February 28, 2019.

⁸ For awards granted under the PST Restoration Program, dividend equivalents are earned at the same rate as dividends paid on Common Stock. These units will deliver in shares one year following retirement unless elected otherwise by the NEO, subject to applicable tax rules and regulations.

⁹ Half of this award is forfeitable until August 13, 2016, and the remainder of the award is forfeitable until August 13, 2018.

¹⁰ These options are nonforfeitable, and will become exercisable on September 13, 2016, and expire on September 13, 2023.

¹¹ For awards granted under the IRP, dividend equivalents are earned at the same rate as dividends paid on Common Stock. These units will deliver in shares one year following retirement unless elected otherwise by the NEO, subject to applicable tax rules and regulations.

The following table and footnotes provide information regarding unexercised stock options and stock awards that have not yet vested as of the end of FY 2013-14.

¹ The following provides details regarding the vesting date for each of the option grants included in the table. The Vest Date indicates the date the options become exercisable.

² The following provides detail regarding the vesting date for RSU and PSU holdings included in the table. The Vest Date for RSUs indicates the date such units become nonforfeitable. The Vest Date for PSUs indicates the date the award is earned. The PSU awards are delivered in shares in August following the date the award is earned.

³ The Market Value of PSUs or RSUs that have not vested was determined by multiplying the closing market price of Company stock on June 30, 2014 ($78.59), by the number of PSUs or RSUs, respectively.

The following table and footnotes provide information regarding stock option exercises and stock vesting during FY 2013-14 for the NEOs.

¹ The Number of Shares Acquired on Exercise is the gross number of shares acquired.

² The Value Realized on Exercise was determined by multiplying the number of shares acquired by the difference between the market price of the Company’s common stock upon exercise and the grant price of the options.

³ Numbers of Shares Acquired on Vesting is the gross number of shares acquired. Please see footnote 2 in the Outstanding Equity at Fiscal Year-End Table for the definition of vesting for Stock Awards.

⁴ Value Realized on Vesting was determined by multiplying the number of shares acquired by the actual market price obtained or, in the absence of a broker transaction, value is determined by the average of the high and low price on the vesting date.

⁵ Mr. Lafley’s February 2014 Key Manager Stock Grant vested June 30, 2014 because he is retirement eligible.

⁶ Mr. Moeller’s retirement restricted RSUs vested on August 13, 2013 when the C&LD Committee changed the vesting of these awards to the individual NEO’s 5-year anniversary date to mirror the vesting term of the PST. These RSUs were granted under the PST Restoration Program, described on page 32.

⁷ In addition to the PST Restoration RSUs that vested in August 2013 due to the C&LD Committee action to change the vesting to the 5-year anniversary date of the NEO, Mr. Riant’s outstanding Key Manager Stock Grants vested this year when he became retirement eligible.

⁸ Mr. Ciserani’s IRP RSUs vested on August 13, 2013 when the C&LD Committee changed the vesting of these awards to the individual NEO’s 5-year anniversary date to mirror the vesting term of the PST. These RSUs were granted under the IRP, described on page 32.

The following table and footnotes provide information regarding the Company’s pension plans for Messrs. Geissler, Riant, and Ciserani as of the end of FY 2013-14. None of the other NEOs had any such arrangements with the Company.

¹ Numbers in this column are computed as of the same pension plan measurement date used for financial statement reporting purposes for the Company’s audited financial statements as found in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

² The following provides the assumptions used in each plan to calculate present value:

The following exchange rates as of June 30, 2014, were used to calculate present value:

³ Because Messrs. Geissler and Riant have reached age 55, they are eligible for early retirement under this plan. However, their benefits would be reduced by 5% for each year retirement precedes age 60. The earliest age at which they may retire with full benefits is age 60.

The Procter & Gamble Global International Retirement Arrangement (“Global IRA”)

The Global IRA is designed to provide retirement benefits to certain employees whose benefits are frozen under their home country pension plan(s) as a result of having been transferred away from their home country on a permanent basis. The Global IRA benefit is calculated in accordance with the following formula:

The Global IRA accounts for the differences in retirement benefits attributable to a higher salary at the time of retirement than at the time of transfer out of the home country. As such, the Global IRA is reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by any retirement pension benefit paid by either the Company or the government, and which was earned through the employee’s home country.

The German Pension Plan is a defined benefit plan for Germany-based employees hired before December 31, 1999. The German Pension Plan provides for post-retirement payments based on the employee’s pensionable income, which for certain employees, including Mr. Geissler, includes a portion of their STAR award, and years of service at the time of retirement. The German Pension Plan benefit is calculated in accordance with the following formula:

The benefit is paid at retirement and reduced by the German social security benefit based on years of service. The normal retirement age is 65, and there is a surviving spouse benefit equal to 60% of the employee’s pension benefit.

The UK Pension Plan is a defined benefit plan for employees whose home country was within the United Kingdom for all or a portion of their career. The UK Pension Plan provides for post-retirement payments based on the employee’s salary and years of service at the time of retirement. The UK Pension Plan benefit is calculated in accordance with the following formula:

The following table and footnotes provide information regarding the Company’s non-tax-qualified defined contribution and deferred compensation plans for each of the NEOs for FY 2013-14. For a complete understanding of the table and the footnotes, please read the narrative that follows the table.

¹ Because none of the amounts included in this column are above-market earnings under SEC reporting rules, they are not reflected in the Summary Compensation Table.

² Total includes $5,500,000 previously reported in Summary Compensation Tables for prior years.

³ Amounts shown include awards granted under the terms of either The Procter & Gamble 1992 Stock Plan, The Procter & Gamble 2001 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan, or The Procter & Gamble 2009 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan, depending on which plan was in effect at the time the NEO elected to defer the award.

⁴ Total reflects the 2014 Key Manager Stock Grant which became nonforfeitable on June 30, 2014 because Mr. Lafley is retirement eligible. This award is also reported in the Summary Compensation Table found on page 36 of this proxy statement.

The NEOs are eligible to participate in The Procter & Gamble Company Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (“EDCP”). Under EDCP, a participant may defer up to 75% of base salary (an increase from 50% in prior years) and up to 100% of the STAR award. Amounts may be deferred for a minimum of one year or until termination of employment. Payments that commence upon retirement, death, or disability may be taken in a lump sum or installments (over a maximum period of ten years). All other payments under the plan are paid as a lump sum.

Amounts deferred under EDCP are credited with market earnings based on the same fund choices available to all employees under the Company’s tax-qualified plan, with the exception of P&G stock, which is not offered as an investment option in the EDCP. Participants may change fund choices on a daily basis.

Key Manager Stock Grants made in the form of RSUs that vest prior to delivery due to the NEO being retirement eligible are included in the aggregate balance as deferred compensation awards under an employee stock and incentive compensation plan. Participants may also defer delivery of incentive awards earned under the current STAR and PSP programs and their predecessors, including the Business Growth Program, which terminated on June 30, 2010, by electing to receive RSUs with deferred delivery. The RSUs are governed by the employee stock and incentive compensation plan that was in effect at the time the award was granted. Similarly, other special equity awards that were deferred by an NEO are included in the aggregate balance for amounts deferred under an employee stock and incentive compensation plan.

As described on page 32 of this proxy statement, federal tax rules limit the size of contributions that can be made to individuals pursuant to tax-qualified defined contribution plans like the PST. To account for these limitations, the Company utilizes the PST Restoration Program to make an additional annual contribution in the form of RSUs.

Similar to the PST, these RSUs become non-forfeitable once an executive has at least five years of service. The default form of payment is a lump sum distribution one year after retirement, or the executive can elect to defer the lump sum to six or eleven years after retirement or to commence ten annual installments at six or eleven years after retirement. Generally, executives have until retirement to change a previous deferral election, with any such deferral elections or changes to deferral elections made in compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. These RSUs earn dividend equivalents at the same rate as dividends on Common Stock and are accrued in the form of additional RSUs each quarter and credited to the executive’s holdings. The value of each RSU may increase or decrease over time as the value is tied to the price of the Common Stock. Finally, NEOs may convert certain of their PST Restoration Program RSUs into notional cash with the same investment choices as those available under the EDCP.

The Company’s IRP is designed to provide retirement benefits for employees whose participation in retirement plans in their home countries has been suspended because they are on assignments outside of that country. Under the IRP, the

Company makes an annual contribution for each participant equal to the contribution that would have been made under the participant’s home country retirement plan had the participant remained in that country and eligible to participate in that plan.

Historically, Company contributions to IRP were placed into one of several investment vehicles available within the IRP, at each participant’s election. Participants in the U.S. receive their contributions in RSUs. These contributions vest according to the terms and conditions of the participant’s home country retirement plan. Upon retirement from the Company, participants must elect to receive distributions from their IRP accounts in one of four ways: (1) fixed-income annuity, (2) variable annuity, (3) lump sum, or (4) annual installments (over a maximum of 15 years).

Amounts the NEOs defer under any of the above-mentioned plans that are scheduled to be paid after termination of employment must be held by the Company for a minimum of six months in order to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

The Company does not have any employment contracts with its NEOs that require severance payments upon termination of their employment. The only situation in which a separation allowance may be paid is if an employee is encouraged to separate from the Company. Certain elements of compensation are, however, treated differently depending upon the specific circumstances of an NEO’s separation.

The following table describes the general treatment of compensation under the Company’s key programs under various separation scenarios for all Company employees, including the NEOs.

All equity awards listed above are governed by the employee stock plan under which the award was granted. The scenarios described above assume that former employees comply with the terms and conditions of the applicable employee stock plan, including compliance with the Company’s Purpose, Values and Principles and restrictions on competing with the Company following termination of employment. Failure to comply with either of these provisions can result in forfeiture and/or cancellation of outstanding equity awards.

The retirement plans in which the NEOs participate do not discriminate in scope, terms, or operation for NEOs versus all other participants. All NEOs are fully vested in PST and will retain all shares upon termination of employment regardless of reason. PST Restoration RSUs vest at the NEO’s fifth anniversary date. All NEOs are beyond their fifth anniversary date. Because Messrs. Geissler and Riant are retirement eligible, they are both entitled to a Global IRA benefit value upon separation from the Company. Additionally, Mr. Geissler is fully vested in his IRP and country pension plan account balances and therefore, would retain those balances upon termination for any reason. Mr. Riant is also vested in his U.K. pension.

Salary and STAR bonuses deferred under EDCP, have been earned and therefore are retained upon termination for any reason. Similarly, amounts deferred under the Business Growth Program and PSP have been earned and are retained

upon termination for any reason. Vested amounts related to deferred compensation plans are not included in the following table because they are reported in the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table on page 45 of this proxy statement.

If an employee’s expatriate assignment terminates for any reason, the Company would pay for relocation to the home country and would cover future taxes due related to the expatriate assignment.

The following table and footnotes quantify the treatment of compensation or value of benefits that each NEO would receive under the Company’s compensation programs upon various scenarios for termination of employment or a change in control of the Company. The amounts shown assume the event that triggered the treatment occurred on June 30, 2014.

¹ STAR awards previously elected in stock options that would vest and become exercisable immediately upon death. No other amounts are included for STAR because the NEO would be entitled to the same payment whether or not separation occurred on June 30, 2014.

² Upon voluntary separation or termination, all outstanding awards would be forfeited. While all unvested awards are retained (except for the current year grant if separation occurs before June 30) in the event of Company encouraged separation, retirement, or disability, these events do not trigger any change in the original payment terms of the awards. The amounts shown for the Key Manager Stock Grant in the event of Company-encouraged separation, retirement or disability represents the value of the unexercisable stock options and undelivered RSUs as of June 30, 2014 that would be retained at separation and payout according to the original terms and timing of the grants. Awards vest and become immediately exercisable in the event of death or change in control.

³ Upon voluntary separation or termination, all outstanding awards would be forfeited. While all unvested awards are retained (except for the current year grant if separation occurs before June 30) in the event of Company-encouraged separation, retirement or disability, or death, these events do not trigger any change in the original payment terms of the awards. In the event of change in control, PSP will pay out at target on the date of the change in control. The amounts shown for the PSP Grants represent the value of the unvested PSUs as of June 30, 2014 that would be retained on the triggering event and pay out according to the original terms and timing of the grants.

⁴ As part of the Company’s overall restructuring and productivity effort, Mr. Geissler, formerly Vice Chairman—Global Operations, was named Vice Chairman—Advisor to the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer effective July 1, 2014. In this capacity, he will report to Mr. Lafley until his future retirement date, which is expected to occur no later than June 30, 2015 and will be determined based on business need and mutual agreement. Because Mr. Geissler’s role was eliminated as part of the Company’s restructuring, he will receive a lump sum payment equal to one year’s salary upon his retirement. In exchange for this compensation, Mr. Geissler will be subject to certain non-compete, non-solicitation, and non-disparagement obligations.

The following table shows all entities that are the beneficial owners of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s voting securities:

¹ Based on information as of December 31, 2013 contained in a Schedule 13G/A filed with the SEC on February 12, 2014 by BlackRock, Inc. The Schedule 13G/A indicates that BlackRock, Inc. has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to these shares.

² Based on information as of December 31, 2013 contained in a Schedule 13G filed with the SEC on February 6, 2014 by The Vanguard Group. The Schedule 13G indicates that The Vanguard Group has (i) sole power to vote or direct to vote with respect to 4,447,593 shares, (ii) sole dispositive power with respect to 140,354,004 shares, and (iii) shared dispositive power with respect to 4,145,850 shares.

The following tables and footnotes provide information regarding the ownership of the Company’s Common Stock and Series A and B ESOP Convertible Class A Preferred Stock by all Directors and nominees, each NEO, and all Directors and executive officers as a group on August 15, 2014:

¹ Includes unrestricted Common Stock over which each Director or executive officer has sole voting and investment power and restricted Common Stock over which they have voting power but no investment power (until restrictions lapse).

² Common Stock allocated to personal accounts of executive officers under the Retirement Trust pursuant to PST. Plan participants have sole discretion as to voting and, within limitations provided by PST, investment of shares. Shares are voted by the Trustees in accordance with instructions from participants. If instructions are not received by the Trustees as to the voting of particular shares, shares are to be voted in proportion to instructions actually received from other participants in the Retirement Trust.

³ Total includes stock options that have vested or will vest within 60 days, any PSP awards (as described on pages 31-32) that will deliver as Common Stock in August 2014, any Restricted Stock that will vest within 60 days, and any RSUs that will deliver as Common Stock within 60 days.

⁴ The individuals involved share voting and/or investment powers with other persons with respect to the shares shown in this column.

⁵ RSUs represent the right to receive unrestricted shares of Common Stock upon the lapse of restrictions, at which point the holders will have a non-forfeitable right to delivery of Common Stock on a specific date in the future. Total includes any PSP awards that will deliver as RSUs in August 2014. RSUs that will not deliver within 60 days of the record date are not considered “beneficially owned” because holders are not entitled to voting rights or investment control until the shares are delivered.

² Less than .025% for any NEO; by the terms of the stock, only persons who are or have been employees can have beneficial ownership of these shares. Less than .207% for the Directors and executive officers, as a group.

³ Total includes shares indirectly held by Mr. Lafley through his spouse, who was previously employed by the Company.

⁴ Total includes shares indirectly held by Mr. Moeller through his spouse, who is also employed by the Company.

⁵ Unallocated shares. The voting of these shares is governed by the terms of PST, which provides that the Trustees shall vote unallocated shares held by them in proportion to instructions received from Trust participants as to voting of allocated shares. The disposition of these shares in connection with a tender offer would be governed by the terms of PST, which provides that the Trustees shall dispose of unallocated shares held by them in proportion to instructions received from Trust participants as to the disposition of allocated shares.

² Less than .003% for any NEO; by the terms of the stock, only persons who are or have been employees can have beneficial ownership of these shares. Less than .006% for the Directors and executive officers, as a group.

³ Unallocated shares. The voting of these shares is governed by the terms of PST, which provides that the Trustees shall vote unallocated shares held by them in proportion to instructions received from Trust participants as to voting of allocated shares. The disposition of these shares in connection with a tender offer would be governed by the terms of PST, which provides that the Trustees shall dispose of unallocated shares held by them in proportion to instructions received from Trust participants as to the disposition of allocated shares.

Ownership of, and transactions in, Company stock by executive officers and Directors of the Company are required to be reported to the SEC pursuant to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a practical matter, the Company assists its Directors and officers by monitoring transactions and completing and filing Section 16 reports on their behalf. All Directors and officers complied with these requirements during the past fiscal year.

Each member of the Audit Committee is an independent Director as determined by the Board of Directors, based on the NYSE listing standards and the Board’s own Independence Guidelines. Each member of the Committee also satisfies the SEC’s additional independence requirement for members of audit committees. The Board of Directors has determined that Ms. Woertz and Mr. Chenault meet the criteria for “Audit Committee Financial Expert” as defined by SEC rules. The Board of Directors has also determined that all Audit Committee members are financially literate. See page 13 for further detail on Audit Committee composition.

As noted previously in the proxy statement, the Committee’s work is guided by a charter, which can be found in the corporate governance section of the Company’s website at www.pginvestor.com. The Audit Committee has the responsibilities set forth in its charter with respect to:

Management has the Company’s primary responsibility for establishing and maintaining adequate internal financial controllership, for preparing the financial statements and for the public reporting process. Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Audit Committee-appointed independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, is responsible for expressing opinions on the conformity of the Company’s audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles and on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

In its role of financial reporting oversight, the Committee reviewed and discussed with management and Deloitte & Touche LLP the audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2014, and management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. In this context, the Committee met 8 times (including telephone meetings to discuss quarterly results) during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. The Committee has reviewed with Deloitte & Touche LLP matters required to be discussed pursuant to auditing standards adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”). In addition, the Committee has discussed various matters with Deloitte & Touche LLP related to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including critical accounting policies and practices used, alternative treatments for material items that have been discussed with management, and other material written communications between Deloitte & Touche LLP and management. The Committee has also received written disclosures and the letter from Deloitte & Touche LLP required by PCAOB Rule 3526, “Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence,” and has discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP its independence from the Company and its management. In addition, the Committee has received written material addressing Deloitte & Touche LLP’s internal quality control procedures and other matters, as required by the NYSE listing standards. The Committee understands the need for Deloitte & Touche LLP to maintain objectivity and independence in its audit of the Company’s financial statements and internal controls over financial reporting. The Committee has implemented a formal pre-approval process for non-audit fee spending, and it seeks to limit this spending to a level that keeps the core relationship with Deloitte & Touche LLP focused on financial statement review and evaluation. A copy of this pre-approval process is attached to this proxy statement as Exhibit B.

Based on the considerations referred to above, the Committee recommended to our Board of Directors that the audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2014 be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2014 and selected Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015. This report is provided by the following independent Directors, who constitute the Committee:

The Audit Committee, with the ratification of the shareholders, engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP to perform an annual audit of the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. The Audit Committee was responsible for determination and approval of audit fees primarily based on audit scope, with consideration of audit team skills and experiences.

Pursuant to rules of the SEC, the fees billed by Deloitte & Touche LLP, the member firms of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, and their respective affiliates (collectively “Deloitte”), are disclosed in the table below:

All services provided by Deloitte are permissible under applicable laws and regulations. The Company has adopted policies and procedures for pre-approval of services by Deloitte as described in Exhibit B to this proxy statement. The fees paid to Deloitte shown in the table above were all pre-approved in accordance with these procedures and include:

These services are actively monitored (both spending level and work content) by the Audit Committee to maintain the appropriate objectivity and independence in Deloitte’s core work, which is the audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Committee also concluded that Deloitte’s provision of audit and non-audit services to the Company and its affiliates is compatible with Deloitte’s independence.

The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the independent external audit firm retained to audit the Company’s financial statement. In order to assure continuing audit independence and objectivity, the Audit Committee will periodically consider whether there should be a rotation of the independent external audit firm. In accordance with the SEC-mandated rotation of the audit firm’s lead engagement partner, the Audit Committee is also involved in the selection of the external audit firm’s lead engagement partner.

The Audit Committee selected Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm to perform the audit of our financial statements and our internal controls over financial reporting for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015. Deloitte & Touche LLP was our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. The members of the Audit Committee and Board believe that the retention of Deloitte & Touche LLP to serve as the Company’s independent external auditor is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. In the course of these reviews, the Audit Committee considers, among other things: external auditor capability, effectiveness and efficiency of audit services, results from periodic management and Audit Committee performance assessments, and appropriateness of fees in the context of audit scope. The Committee also reviews and approves non-audit fees.

Deloitte & Touche LLP representatives are expected to attend the 2014 annual meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be available to respond to appropriate shareholder questions.

We are asking our shareholders to ratify the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm. Although ratification is not required by the Company’s Code of Regulations, the By Laws of the Board of Directors, or otherwise, the Board is submitting the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP to our shareholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. The Board will take into consideration the shareholder vote, but the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may still retain Deloitte & Touche LLP or select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interest of the Company and our shareholders.

RESOLVED, That action by the Audit Committee appointing Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm to conduct the annual audit of the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015 is hereby ratified, confirmed, and approved.

On June 10, 2014, the Board of Directors approved for submission to the shareholders The Procter & Gamble 2014 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2014 Plan” or “Plan”), as set forth in Exhibit C to this proxy statement.

This year, the Board of Directors is recommending consolidating the Company’s equity programs under an omnibus plan that incorporates best practices. As a result, the 2014 Plan replaces both The Procter & Gamble 2009 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2009 Plan”), which was adopted by the Board of Directors on August 11, 2009 and approved by shareholders at the annual meeting held on October 13, 2009, and The Procter & Gamble 2013 Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Plan, which was adopted by the Board of Directors on June 4, 2013, and approved at the annual meeting of the shareholders held on October 8, 2013.

The Board recommends that shareholders support the 2014 Plan for the following reasons:

For the reasons set forth above, the Board recommends that you vote FOR the following resolution:

RESOLVED, That The Procter & Gamble 2014 Stock And Incentive Compensation Plan, as set forth in Exhibit C to this proxy statement, is hereby approved and authorized.

The following is a summary of the basic features of the 2014 Plan. For additional information, please refer to the specific provision of the full text of the 2014 Plan set forth in Exhibit C to this proxy statement.

The Compensation & Leadership Development Committee (the “Committee”) will administer the Plan. The Committee has the authority to:

The participants in the Plan shall be non-employee Directors and those employees who, in the opinion of the Committee, have demonstrated a capacity for contributing in a substantial manner to the success of the Company. This currently includes 10 non-employee Directors and approximately 6,000 of the Company’s key managers who receive awards on an annual basis. It also includes an additional 8,000 employees currently eligible for cash bonuses who can elect to take all or part of their bonuses in stock options issued pursuant to the Plan.

The Plan permits the award of up to 160 million new shares. In addition, to the extent shares remain available, the following may be awarded under the Plan:

All stock options and SARs granted under the Plan shall be counted against the aggregate number of shares on a one-for-one basis while all other full-value awards to be settled in shares shall be counted as 5 shares for each share awarded. The 5:1 ratio means that only 32 million new shares could be awarded as full value shares or up to 160 million shares if all awards were granted as stock options. The maximum number of shares with respect to which options or other awards may be granted to any non-employee Director in any calendar year shall not exceed 10,000. The maximum number of shares with respect to which stock options or SARs may be granted to any employee who is a participant in any calendar year shall not exceed two million.

Each employee participant is required to accept each grant under the Plan subject to the terms and conditions of the grant materials and the Plan. At the time of exercise of a stock option or SAR, an employee participant must certify either

that he or she intends to remain employed by the Company or one of its subsidiaries for at least one year or intends to leave the Company or one of its subsidiaries within one year but has no intention to: 1) engage in competitive employment with the Company or its subsidiaries for a period of three years following termination of employment, unless the Participant first obtains written permission from the Company; 2) solicit Company employees to work elsewhere or solicit business from the Company’s customers, suppliers, or partners, unless the Participant first obtains written permission of the Company; 3) take any action significantly contrary to the best interests of the Company; or 4) disclose any of the Company’s trade secrets or confidential information. The Committee may waive certain of these conditions or impose different conditions that do not increase or extend the rights of the participants. The Plan also contains a clawback provision which allows the Company to recover the net proceeds resulting from the exercise of stock options or SARs and the value of any common stock or other awards delivered pursuant to the Plan should a participant violate these covenants.

The following is a general discussion of the federal income tax consequences of awards made under the 2014 Plan. The information is provided for shareholders considering how to vote on this proposal and is not tax guidance to Participants.

The following table shows the amounts that were awarded to employees as a group for FY 2013-14 under the 2009 Plan and The Procter & Gamble 2013 Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Plan, which are the amounts that would have been awarded under the 2014 Plan had it been in effect. Amounts to be awarded under the 2014 Plan are not determinable, but the Company intends to make future awards consistent with current employee compensation practices.

² Of the 185,365 units issued, 130,626 are Stock Options or SARs, 22,575 are RSUs, and 32,164 are PSUs.

³ Of the 238,862 units issued, 199,594 are Stock Options or SARs, 2,146 are RSUs, and 37,122 are PSUs.

The following table gives information about the Company’s common stock that may be issued upon the exercise of options, warrants and rights under all of the Company’s equity compensation plans as of June 30, 2014. The table includes the following plans: The Procter & Gamble 1992 Stock Plan; The Procter & Gamble 1992 Stock Plan (Belgian Version); The Procter & Gamble 1993 Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Plan; The Procter & Gamble Future Shares Plan; The Procter & Gamble 2001 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan; The Procter & Gamble 2003 Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Plan; The Gillette Company 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan; The Procter & Gamble 2009 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan; and The Procter & Gamble 2013 Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Plan.

² Of the plans listed in footnote 1, only The 2013 Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Plan and The Procter & Gamble 2009 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan allow for future grants of securities. The maximum number of shares that may be granted under these plans is 180 million shares. Under The Procter & Gamble 2009 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan, stock options and stock appreciation rights are counted on a one-for-one basis, while full value awards (such as RSUs and PSUs) are counted as 2.88 shares for each share recorded. Total shares available for future issuance under these plans is approximately 27 million shares.

³ Includes The Procter & Gamble 1992 Stock Plan (Belgian version); The Procter & Gamble Future Shares Plan; and The Gillette Company 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan.

⁴ None of the plans listed in footnote 3 allow for future grants of securities.

The following narrative provides a description of the Company’s non-shareholder-approved plans.

No further grants can be made under the plan, although unexercised stock options previously granted under this plan remain outstanding. This plan was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on February 14, 1997. Although the plan has not been submitted to shareholders for approval, it is nearly identical to The Procter & Gamble 1992 Stock Plan, approved by the Company’s shareholders on October 13, 1992, except for a few minor changes designed to comply with Belgian tax laws.

The plan was designed to attract, retain and motivate key Belgian employees. Under the plan, eligible participants were: (i) granted or offered the right to purchase stock options, (ii) granted stock appreciation rights and/or (iii) granted shares of the Company’s common stock. Except in the case of death of the recipient, all stock options and stock appreciation rights must vest in no less than one year from the date of grant and must expire no later than fifteen years from the date of grant. The exercise price for all stock options granted under the plan is the average price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. If a recipient of a grant leaves the Company while holding an unexercised option or right, any unexercisable portions immediately become void, except in the case of death, and any exercisable portions become void within one month of departure, except in the case of death or retirement. Any common stock awarded under the plan may be subject to restrictions on sale or transfer while the recipient is employed, as the committee administering the plan may determine.

No further grants can be made under the plan which terminated on October 13, 2007, although unexercised stock options previously granted under this plan remain outstanding. On October 14, 1997, the Company’s Board of Directors approved The Procter & Gamble Future Shares Plan pursuant to which options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock were granted to employees worldwide. The purpose of this plan was to advance the interests of the Company by giving substantially all employees a stake in the Company’s future growth and success and to strengthen the alignment of interests between employees and the Company’s shareholders through increased ownership of shares of the Company’s stock. The plan was not submitted to shareholders for approval.

Subject to adjustment for changes in the Company’s capitalization, the number of shares to be granted under the plan was capped at 17 million shares. Under the plan’s regulations, recipients were granted options to acquire 100 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price equal to the average price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. These options vest five years after the date of grant and expire ten years following the date of grant. If a recipient leaves the employ of the Company prior to the vesting date for a reason other than disability, retirement, or special separation (as defined in the plan), then the award is forfeited.

At the time of the first grant following Board approval of the plan, each employee of the Company not eligible for an award under the 1992 Stock Plan was granted options for 100 shares. From the date of this first grant through June 30, 2003, each new employee of the Company received options for 100 shares.

No further grants can be made under this plan after October 13, 2009. Shareholders of The Gillette Company approved this plan on May 20, 2004, and the plan was assumed by the Company upon the merger between The Procter & Gamble Company and The Gillette Company. All options became immediately vested and exercisable on October 1, 2005 as a result of the merger. After the merger, all outstanding options became options to purchase shares of The Procter & Gamble Company subject to an exchange ratio of 0.975 shares of P&G stock per share of Gillette stock. Only employees previously employed by The Gillette Company prior to October 1, 2005 were eligible to receive grants under this plan.

The plan was designed to attract, retain, and motivate employees of The Gillette Company, and until the effective date of the merger between The Gillette Company and The Procter & Gamble Company, non-employee members of the Gillette Board of Directors. Under the plan, eligible participants were: (i) granted or offered the right to purchase stock options, (ii) granted stock appreciation rights, and/or (iii) granted shares of the Company’s common stock or restricted stock units (and dividend equivalents). Subject to adjustment for changes in the Company’s capitalization and the addition of any shares authorized but not issued or redeemed under The Gillette Company 1971 Stock Option Plan, the number of shares to be granted under the plan was not to exceed 19 million shares.

If a recipient of a grant leaves the Company while holding an unexercised option or right: (1) any unexercisable portions immediately become void, except in the case of death, retirement, special separation (as those terms are defined in the plan), or any grants as to which the Committee has waived the termination provisions; and (2) any exercisable portions immediately become void, except in the case of death, retirement, special separation, voluntary resignation that is not for Good Reason (as those terms are defined in the plan), or any grants as to which the Committee has waived the termination provisions.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, enacted in July 2010, requires the Board to provide our shareholders with the opportunity to vote on a non-binding, advisory basis, on the compensation of our NEOs as set forth in this proxy statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC. This proposal is also referred to as the “Say on Pay” vote.

Our executive compensation program rewards performance, supports our business strategies, discourages excessive risk-taking, makes us competitive with other multinational corporations for top talent, and aligns our executives’ interests with the long-term interests of our shareholders. In 2013, shareholders approved the compensation paid to the NEOs with a FOR vote of 96.39%.

Our Compensation Discussion & Analysis, which begins on page 21 of this proxy statement, describes in detail the components of our executive compensation program and the process by which our Board makes executive compensation decisions. Highlights of our program include the following:

We design our compensation programs to motivate our executives to win during tough economic times and to achieve our fundamental and overriding objective—to create value for our shareholders at leadership levels on a consistent basis.

This vote is non-binding; however, we highly value the opinions of our shareholders. Accordingly, the Board and the C&LD Committee will consider the outcome of this advisory vote in connection with future executive compensation decisions.

For the reasons set forth above, the Board recommends that you vote FOR the following resolution:

RESOLVED, That the compensation paid to the NEOs, as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, including the Compensation Discussion & Analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion, is hereby approved.

As you Sow, 1611 Telegraph Avenue, Suite 1450, Oakland, California 94612, representing the Roddenberry Foundation, owner of at least $2,000 in value of Common Stock of the Company, together with multiple co-filers whose names and addresses and beneficial holdings are available upon request, have given notice that they intend to present for action at the annual meeting the following resolution:

WHEREAS Procter & Gamble is known for its leadership on environmental sustainability yet a portion of its product packaging is unrecyclable including some plastics, a growing component of marine litter, which authorities say kills and injures marine life, spreads toxics and poses a potential threat to human health.

Plastic is the fastest growing form of packaging; U.S. flexible plastic sales are estimated at $26 billion. Tide detergent pods packaged in laminate pouches are an example of unrecyclable packaging. Using unrecyclable packaging when recyclable alternatives are available wastes valuable resources. William McDonough, a leading green design advisor calls pouch packaging a “monstrous hybrid” designed to end up either in a landfill or incinerator. The company’s iconic Crest toothpaste is packaged in a laminate tube that cannot be conventionally recycled.

Recyclability of household packaging is a growing area of focus as consumers become more environmentally conscious yet recycling rates stagnate. Only 14% of plastic packaging is recycled, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Billions of pouches and similar plastic laminates, representing significant amounts of embedded value, lie buried in landfills. Unrecyclable packaging is more likely to be littered and swept into waterways. A recent assessment of marine debris by a panel of the Global Environment Facility concluded that one cause of debris entering oceans is “design and marketing of products internationally without appropriate regard to their environmental fate or ability to be recycled…”

In the marine environment, plastics break down into indigestible particles that marine life mistake for food. Studies by USEPA suggest a synergistic effect between plastic debris and persistent, bioaccumulative, toxic chemicals. Plastics absorb toxics such as polychlorinated biphenyls and dioxins from water or sediment and transfer them to the marine food web and potentially to human diets. One study of fish from the North Pacific found one or more plastic chemicals in all fish tested, independent of location and species.

California spends nearly $500 million annually preventing trash, much of it packaging, from polluting beaches, rivers and oceanfront. Making all packaging recyclable, if possible, is the first step needed to reduce the threat posed by ocean debris.

Companies who aspire to corporate sustainability yet use these risky materials need to explain why they use unrecyclable packaging. Other companies are moving towards recyclability. Colgate-Palmolive recently set a goal to make most of its packaging recyclable by 2020, including toothpaste tubes. Keurig Green Mountain agreed to make K-cup coffee pods recyclable; McDonald’s and Dunkin Donuts are shifting away from foam plastic beverage cups which cannot be readily recycled.

BE IT RESOLVED THAT Shareowners of P&G request that the board of directors issue a report at reasonable cost, omitting confidential information, assessing the environmental impacts of continuing to use unrecyclable brand packaging.

Supporting Statement: Proponents believe that the report should include an assessment of the reputational, financial and operational risks associated with continuing to use unrecyclable brand packaging and, if possible, goals and a timeline to phase out unrecyclable packaging.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote AGAINST this proposal for the following reasons:

We agree with the proponent’s position that recyclability is an important consideration when designing packaging. As noted by the proponent, P&G is a leader in environmental sustainability. The Company has focused significant effort on minimizing the environmental impacts from our packaging through materials reduction and recycling. Given our clearly demonstrated commitment to this issue, we do not believe that the report requested by the proponent would add meaningful value to our ongoing efforts, or to shareholders.

Today, a significant majority of P&G’s packaging is made from materials that are recyclable, but reducing the environmental impact of packaging is not as simple as just using recyclable materials. We are also focused on using less materials - i.e., source reduction. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s “Waste Management Hierarchy” (http:// www.epa.gov/waste/nonhaz/municipal/hierarchy.htm) recognizes source reduction as the most preferred way to reduce waste and save natural resources. Therefore, P&G has made conservation of resources a key pillar in our sustainability strategy, establishing a goal of reducing packaging by 20% per unit of production (versus our 2010 baseline) by 2020.

When evaluating packaging, it is critical to take a holistic lifecycle perspective. We must ensure that packaging performs its critical functions, such as product protection, product performance, consumer safety, and regulatory compliance, while striving to use the minimum amount of material and minimizing end-of-life impacts. In some instances, we use materials, such as flexible films, that may not be readily recyclable, but which offer a significant source reduction. This source reduction can deliver benefits such as less raw material usage, less energy consumption, fewer greenhouse gas emissions, or greater transportation efficiency. For example, in some applications, we have found that flexible pouch packages can contribute approximately 50% less plastic material to landfill per consumer use than plastic bottles. The use of materials like this can often result in lifecycle benefits.

Finally, we continue to evaluate opportunities for how we can maximize recovery of value from all of these materials at end of life, which is consistent with our long-term vision of zero consumer waste to landfill. These include evaluating technologies that can recycle currently unrecyclable materials and engaging in cooperative efforts to drive increased recovery of materials from municipal solid waste. For example:

In light of our extensive efforts to ensure responsible and sustainable packaging, including the discussion of relevant efforts in our annual Sustainability Report (www.pg.com/sr), the Board recommends a vote against the resolution. The requested study would be duplicative of efforts already underway to minimize the environmental impacts of our packaging and would not create additional value for our shareholders.

NorthStar Asset Management, P.O. Box 301840, Boston, Massachusetts, 02130, owner of at least $2,000 in value of Common Stock of the Company, has given notice that it intends to present for action at the annual meeting the following resolution:

The Supreme Court ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission interpreted the First Amendment right of freedom of speech to include certain corporate political expenditures involving “electioneering communications,” which resulted in greater public and shareholder scrutiny;

Proponents believe Procter & Gamble (P&G) should, establish policies that minimize risk to the firm’s reputation, and brand;

P&G’s company Political Involvement policy states that, “[s]upport, of candidates is guided by our Purpose, Values and Principles,” however research by the Proponent uncovered political contributions that may undermine P&G’s Purpose, Values, and Principles;

In the recent 2013-2014 election cycle, a surprising 50% of P&G Good Government Fund (GGF) political contributions went to politicians working against P&G’s interests;

P&G publicizes its company goals of “long-term environmental sustainability vision primarily focused on renewable materials, waste reduction, renewable energy, and packaging reduction,” yet in 2013-2014, the Proponent found that out of contributions to candidates, the P&G GGF designated 39% of its contributions to those voting to deregulate greenhouse gasses and/or against the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009;

P&G has a firm nondiscrimination policy stating that “we do not discriminate against individuals on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity and expression,” yet in 2013-2014, the Proponent found that P&G GGF designated almost 40% of its contributions to candidates voting against the repeal of Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell, against hate crimes legislation, and/or for the Marriage Protection Amendment which would eliminate equal marriage rights nationally;

Lack of accountability and governance puts the corporation and shareholder value at risk for litigation and boycott should it become publically known that the corporation violated its own values.

Resolved: Shareholders request that the Board of Directors report to shareholders annually at reasonable expense, excluding confidential information, a congruency analysis between corporate values as defined by P&G’s stated policies (including our Purpose, Values and Principles, nondiscrimination policy, and Long-Term Environmental Sustainability Vision) arid Company and P&G GGF political and electioneering contributions, including a list of any such contributions occurring during the prior year which raise an issue of misalignment with corporate values, and stating the justification for such exceptions.

Supporting Statement: Proponents recommend that the management develop coherent criteria for determining congruency, such as identifying some legislative initiatives that are considered most germane to core company values, and that the report include management’s analysis of risks to our company’s brand, reputation, or shareholder value, as well as acts of stewardship by the Company to inform funds recipients’ of company values, and the recipients’ divergence from those values, at the time contributions are made. “Expenditures for electioneering communications” means spending directly, or through a third party, at any time during the year, on printed, internet or broadcast communications, which are reasonably susceptible to interpretation as in support of or opposition to a specific candidate.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote AGAINST this proposal for the following reasons:

P&G participates in the political process to help shape public policy and legislation that helps us fulfill our corporate purpose: delivering products to improve the lives of the world’s consumers. We believe this political engagement is necessary to ensure the interests of our employees, consumers and shareholders are fairly represented at all levels of government around the world, and P&G is committed to being transparent about our political involvement. Our public policy and legislative priorities are reviewed regularly with senior business leaders and annually with the Governance and Public Responsibility Committee. P&G’s participation in the political process is outlined in our Statement of Political Involvement found at www.pg.com.

P&G’s policy is not to use corporate funds to support “Super PACs,” “527” organizations or candidates in states, even where it is legally permissible to do so. Further, P&G has no plans to use corporate funds to support other independent political expenditures to influence federal elections, nor do we plan to make contributions to trade associations for that purpose. We notify our key trade associations on an annual basis that our annual dues cannot be used for electioneering or independent political expenditures.

P&G does have a political action committee, the Good Government Fund (“GGF”), so that eligible employees who want to support candidates advocating for issues important to the business and quality of the life in the communities in which they live and work may voluntarily contribute funds to do so. The GGF supports candidates at the federal, state and local levels.

Support of candidates by the GGF is guided by the Company’s Purpose, Values and Principles and is generally based on any or all of the following criteria: support of P&G business issues (key votes can be found at http://www.pg.com/en_US/downloads/company/political_involvement/2013_Issue_and_Ballot_Spending.pdf); sustained constituent relationships with P&G facilities or employees; and positions in leadership or on Committees of particular importance to the Company. Consistent with our Company’s Values and Principles, the P&G GGF shows respect for all individuals. We also value differences of opinion. We realize that there will be diverse, divergent, and often strongly held views on candidates the P&G GGF should support, and what issues should determine that support. Further, we realize that individual candidates and elected officials may be supportive of P&G positions on some issues, and opposed on others. That is why a holistic and data-driven approach is necessary to examine the implications a contribution may have on the business.

In addition to strong governance and safeguards, the Company publicly discloses its policies and activities regarding political contributions and complies with relevant reporting requirements. Our Statement of Political Involvement is posted on the Company’s website, all P&G GGF activity is available on the Federal Elections Commission and state elections commissions websites, and a full listing of 2013 P&G GGF contributions can be found at http://www.pg.com/en_US/downloads/company/political_involvement/2013_PG_GGF_Contributions.pdf.

The Company’s current level of disclosure regarding its political contribution policies, initiatives, and robust oversight mechanisms is more than sufficient for shareholders to evaluate and appropriately assess the risks and benefits associated with specific contributions. Accordingly, we do not believe that a report to shareholders regarding congruency between corporate values and political electioneering contributions would meaningfully advance shareholder interests.

It is anticipated that the 2015 annual meeting of shareholders will be held on Tuesday, October 13, 2015. Pursuant to regulations issued by the SEC, to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement for presentation at that meeting, all shareholder proposals must be received by the Company on or before the close of business on May 1, 2015. Any such proposals should be sent to The Procter & Gamble Company, c/o Secretary, One Procter & Gamble Plaza, Cincinnati, OH 45202-3315.

Our Code of Regulations requires advance notice for any business to be brought before an annual meeting of shareholders. In general, for business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder (other than in connection with the election of Directors, see section entitled “Shareholder Recommendations of Board Nominees and Committee Process for Recommending Board Nominees” on page 17 of this proxy statement; or any matter brought pursuant to SEC Rule 14a-8), the shareholder must meet certain ownership requirements and written notice of such business must be received by the Secretary of the Company not less than 90 days nor more than 240 days prior to the one year anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. Certain other notice periods apply if the date of the annual meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 60 days from the anniversary date. Based upon the one-year anniversary of the 2014 annual meeting, a shareholder wishing to bring such business before the 2015 annual meeting must provide such notice no earlier than February 16, 2015 and no later than July 16, 2015.

As set forth in the Code of Regulations, the shareholder’s notice to the Secretary must contain certain information. A copy of our Code of Regulations can be found on the Company’s website at www.pg.com or may be obtained from the Secretary of the Company at the address provided above.

If a shareholder notifies the Company of an intent to present business at the 2015 annual meeting of shareholders, and such business may be properly presented at that meeting consistent with the Company’s Code of Regulations and Amended Articles of Incorporation, the Company will have the right to exercise its discretionary voting authority with respect to such business without including information regarding such proposal in its proxy materials.

Unless corrections are identified, the minutes of the annual meeting of shareholders held October 8, 2013 will be approved as recorded. Any such action approving the minutes does not constitute approval or disapproval of any of the matters referenced therein.

The Board knows of no other matters that will come before the meeting. However, if any matters other than those set forth in the notice should be properly presented for action, the persons named in the proxy intend to take such action as will be in harmony with the policies of the Company and will use their discretion accordingly.

In accordance with the SEC’s Regulation G, the following provides definitions of the non-GAAP financial measures referenced in this proxy statement with the reconciliation to the most closely related GAAP measure.

Organic sales growth is a non-GAAP measure of sales growth excluding the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign exchange from year-over-year comparisons. We believe this provides investors with a more complete understanding of underlying sales trends by providing sales growth on a consistent basis. Organic sales is also one of the measures used to evaluate senior management and is a factor in determining their at-risk compensation. The reconciliation of reported sales growth to organic sales is as follows:

*Acquisition/Divestiture Impact includes rounding impacts necessary to reconcile net sales to organic sales.

Core EPS is a measure of the Company’s diluted net earnings per share from continuing operations, adjusted for charges in FYs 2014, 2013, and 2012 for incremental restructuring due to increased focus on productivity and cost savings, charges in FYs 2014 and 2013 for the balance sheet impacts from foreign exchange policy changes and the devaluation of the foreign currency exchange rate in Venezuela, charges in FYs 2014, 2013, and 2012 related to European legal matters, a holding gain in FY 2013 on the buyout of our Iberian joint venture (JV), and impairment charges in FY 2013 and 2012 for goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets. We do not view these items to be part of our sustainable results. We believe the Core EPS measure provides an important perspective of underlying business trends and results and provides a more comparable measure of year-on-year earnings per share growth. Core EPS is also one of the measures used to evaluate senior management and is a factor in determining their at-risk compensation.

The table below provides a reconciliation of diluted net earnings per share to Core EPS:

Note - All reconciling items are presented net of tax. Tax effects are calculated consistent with the nature of the underlying transaction.

Free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow less capital spending. We view free cash flow as an important measure because it is one factor in determining the amount of cash available for dividends and discretionary investment. Free cash flow is also one of the measures used to evaluate senior management and is a factor in determining their at-risk compensation. The reconciliation of free cash flow is provided below (amounts in millions):

Adjusted free cash flow productivity is defined as the ratio of free cash flow to net earnings excluding the gains from major divestitures and impairment charges in fiscal 2013. Given the size of these gains and the impairment charges, as well as our view that they are not part of our sustainable results, we have excluded these from our calculation. We believe this provides a better perspective of our underlying liquidity trends. There are no adjustments to net earnings in determining free cash flow productivity for fiscal 2014. The Company’s long-term target is to generate free cash flow at or above 90 percent of net earnings. We view adjusted free cash flow productivity as an important measure because it is a factor in determining the amount of cash available for dividends and discretionary investment. Adjusted free cash flow productivity is also a measure used to evaluate senior management and is a factor in determining their at-risk compensation. The reconciliation of adjusted free cash flow productivity is provided below (amounts in millions):

Article 15. Performance-Based Compensation and Compliance with Code Section 162(m)

15.1 Compliance with Section 162(m). All Options and SARs granted hereunder to any Participant who is or may be a Covered Employee at the time of exercise of such Option or SAR are intended to qualify for exemption from the limitation on deductibility imposed by Code Section 162(m) and this Plan shall be interpreted and operated consistent with that intention. The Committee may designate any Award (other than an Option or SAR) as Performance-Based Compensation upon grant, in each case based upon a determination that (i) the Participant is or may be a Covered Employee with respect to such Award, and (ii) the Committee wishes such Award to qualify for exemption from the limitation on deductibility imposed by Code Section 162(m). The Committee shall have the sole authority to specify which Awards are to be granted in compliance with Code Section 162(m) and treated as Performance-Based Compensation.

15.2 Performance Measures. Payment or vesting of an Award to a Covered Employee that is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation shall be based upon one or more of the following Performance Measures, as measured during the Performance Period:

Any Performance Measure(s) may, as the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate, (i) relate to the performance of the Company, a Subsidiary, divisions, department, region, function or business unit of the Company in which the Participant is employed or any combination thereof, (ii) be measured relative to the performance of other companies, a published index, an absolute amount, a pre-established target, or any other point of comparison, or (iii) be based on any combination of the foregoing. Any Performance Measure(s) may be made subject to pre-specified adjustments to remove the effects of restructurings, dispositions, changes in tax or accounting rules, or similar non-recurring or extraordinary events to the extent consistent with the requirements of Code Section 162(m) for Performance-Based Compensation.

15.4 Adjustment of Performance-Based Compensation. Awards that are intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation may not be adjusted upward. The Committee shall retain the discretion to adjust such Awards downward, either on a formula or discretionary basis or any combination, as the Committee determines, in its sole discretion.

15.5 Interpretation of Performance-Based Compensation. In the event an Award is intended to be Performance-Based Compensation, all terms of the Award and any accompanying Committee action shall be interpreted in a manner that results in the Award complying with Code Section 162(m), and, to the extent a Plan term or Committee action is inconsistent with Code Section 162(m), the Plan term or Committee action shall be deemed modified (or, if necessary, treated as void) in a manner that results in compliance with Code Section 162(m).

15.6 Committee Discretion. In the event that applicable tax or securities laws change to permit Committee discretion to alter the governing Performance Measures or permit flexibility with respect to the terms of any Award or Awards to be treated as Performance-Based Compensation without obtaining shareholder approval of such changes, the Committee shall have sole discretion to make such changes without obtaining shareholder approval. In addition, in the event that the Committee determines that it is advisable to grant Awards that shall not qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, the Committee may make such grants without satisfying the requirements of Code Section 162(m) and base vesting on Performance Measures other than those set forth in Section 15.2.

16.1 Effect of Termination of Employment or Directorship Generally. Each Award Agreement evidencing the grant of an Award shall provide for the following:

The foregoing provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, shall be included in each Award Agreement entered into with each Participant, need not be uniform among all Award Agreements and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination.

17.1 Awards Assumed by Successor. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, any Award granted under the Plan that is Assumed (as defined in Section 17.2 below) by the entity effecting the Change in Control shall vest and be exercisable, if applicable, in accordance with the terms of the original grant unless, during the two (2) year period commencing on the date of the Change in Control:

If clause (a) or (b) applies, the Award shall become fully vested and exercisable, if applicable, and any restrictions that apply to the Award shall lapse, and any performance-based Award shall be deemed to be satisfied at the target level, except that, with respect to any Award subject to Code Section 409A, payment shall be made on the date payment would have been made had the Termination of Employment not occurred. For purposes of this Section 17.1, a Termination of Employment for Good Reason shall not be considered to be for Good Reason unless:

17.2 Assumed Awards Defined. For purposes of this Article 17, an Award shall be considered assumed (“Assumed”) if each of the following conditions are met:

(i) For each Option and Stock Appreciation Right, the Participant shall receive a payment equal to the difference between the consideration (consisting of cash or other property (including securities of a successor or parent corporation)) received by holders of Shares in the Change in Control transaction and the exercise price of the applicable Option or Stock Appreciation Right, if such difference is positive. Such payment shall be made in the same form as the consideration received by holders of Shares. Any Options or Stock Appreciation Rights with an exercise price that is higher than the per share consideration received by holders of Shares in connection with the Change in Control shall be cancelled for no additional consideration.

(ii) For each Share of Restricted Stock, RSU, or Performance Stock Unit, the Participant shall receive the consideration (consisting of cash or other property (including securities of a successor or parent corporation)) which such Participant would have received in the Change in Control transaction had he or she been, immediately prior to such transaction, a holder of the number of Shares equal to the number of Shares covered by the Restricted Stock, RSUs, or Performance Stock Units (based on target level performance).

Neither an Award nor any benefits arising under this Plan shall constitute an employment contract with the Company or any Subsidiary and, accordingly, subject to Articles 3 and 19, this Plan and the benefits hereunder may be amended or terminated at any time in the sole and exclusive discretion of the Board without giving rise to any liability on the part of the Company, any Subsidiary, the Committee or the Board.

The determination of the Committee as to the foregoing adjustments, if any, shall be conclusive and binding on Participants under this Plan. By accepting an Award under this Plan, a Participant agrees to any adjustment to the Award made pursuant to this Section 19.2 without further consideration or action.

19.3 Awards Previously Granted. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, other than Sections 19.2, 19.4 and 21.15, no termination or amendment of this Plan or an Award Agreement shall adversely affect in any material way any Award previously granted under this Plan, without the written consent of the Participant holding such Award.

19.4 Amendment to Conform to Law.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws in other countries in which the Company or any Subsidiaries operate or have Employees or Directors, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to:

Notwithstanding the above, the Committee may not take any actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate applicable law.

21.9 Uncertificated Shares. To the extent that this Plan provides for issuance of certificates to reflect the transfer of Shares, the transfer of such Shares may be effected on a non-certificated basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange.

21.10 Unfunded Plan. Participants shall have no right, title or interest whatsoever in or to any investments that the Company or any Subsidiaries may make to aid it in meeting its obligations under this Plan. Nothing contained in this Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant, beneficiary, legal representative or any other individual. To the extent that any individual acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Subsidiary under this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company or the Subsidiary, as the case may be. All payments to be made hereunder shall be paid from the general funds of the Company, or the Subsidiary, as the case may be, and no special or separate fund shall be established, and no segregation of assets shall be made to assure payment of such amounts except as expressly set forth in this Plan.

21.11 No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to this Plan or any Award. The Committee shall determine whether cash, Awards or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

21.12 Retirement and Welfare Plans. Neither Awards made under this Plan nor Shares or cash paid pursuant to such Awards may be included as “compensation” for purposes of computing the benefits payable to any Participant under the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s retirement plans (both qualified and nonqualified) or welfare benefit plans unless such other plan expressly provides that such compensation shall be taken into account in computing a Participant’s benefit.

21.13 Deferred Compensation. It is intended that any Award under this Plan shall either be exempt from Code Section 409A or shall comply, in form and operation, with Code Section 409A. If a Participant is a “specified employee” as defined under Code Section 409A and the Participant’s Award is to be settled on account of the Participant’s separation from service (for reasons other than death) and such Award constitutes “deferred compensation” as defined under Code Section 409A, then any portion of the Participant’s Award that would otherwise be settled during the six-month period commencing on the Participant’s separation from service shall be settled as soon as practicable following the conclusion of the six-month period (or following the Participant’s death if it occurs during such six-month period). Any Awards that are subject to Code Section 409A shall be interpreted in a manner that complies with Code Section 409A.

21.14 Nonexclusivity of this Plan. The adoption of this Plan shall not be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board or Committee to adopt such other compensation arrangements as it may deem desirable for any Participant.

21.15 No Constraint on Corporate Action. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed to: (i) limit, impair, or otherwise affect the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s right or power to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure, or to merge or consolidate, or dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets; or, (ii) limit the right or power of the Company or a Subsidiary to take any action that such entity deems to be necessary or appropriate.

21.16 Governing Law. The Plan and each Award Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the state of Ohio excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Plan to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.

21.17 Delivery and Execution of Electronic Documents. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company may (i) deliver by email or other electronic means (including posting on a website maintained by the Company or by a third party under contract with the Company) all documents relating to the Plan or any Award thereunder (including without limitation, prospectuses required by the Commission) and all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including without limitation, annual reports and proxy statements) and (ii) permit Participant’s to electronically execute applicable Plan documents (including, but not limited to, Award Agreements) in a manner prescribed to the Committee.

21.18 No Representations or Warranties Regarding Tax Effect. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary or any action taken by the Company, Subsidiaries, or the Board with respect to any income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, or other tax, the acceptance of an Award under the Plan represents the Participant’s acknowledgement that the ultimate liability for any such tax owed by the Participant is and remains the Participant’s responsibility, and that the Company makes no representations or warranties about the tax treatment of any Award, and does not commit to structure any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate a Participant’s tax liability, including without limitation, Code Sections 409A and 457A.

21.19 Successors. All obligations of the Company under this Plan with respect to Awards granted hereunder shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company.

What We Do:

		Significant share ownership and share holding requirements are in place for senior executives.

		Multiple performance metrics under STAR and PSP discourage excessive risk-taking by removing any incentive to focus on a single performance goal to the detriment of the Company.

		Appropriate balance between short-term and long-term compensation discourages short-term risk taking at the expense of long-term results.

		Double Trigger. Time-based equity awards do not vest solely on account of a change-in-control (requires a qualifying termination following a change-in-control).

		Engagement of an Independent Advisor. Our C&LD Committee engages an independent compensation consultant, who performs no other work for the Company, to advise on executive compensation matters.

		Clawback policy permits the C&LD Committee to recoup certain compensation payments in the event of a significant restatement of financial results for any reason. Additionally, the stock plan allows recovery of proceeds from stock transactions if a participant violates certain plan provisions.


What We Do Not Do:

		No employment contracts with executives containing special severance payments such as golden parachutes.

		No special executive retirement programs and no severance programs that are specific to executive officers.

		No gross-up payments to cover personal income taxes or excise taxes that pertain to executive or severance benefits.

		No excessive perquisites for executives.

		No hedging or engaging in the following transactions that include shares of Common Stock: pledging, collars, short sales, and other derivative transactions.

		No re-pricing or backdating stock options.
