ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS

As disclosed in its most recent Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2008, The Procter & Gamble Company (the "Company") completed the divestiture of its coffee business in November 2008 through the merger of its Folgers coffee subsidiary into The J.M. Smucker Company ("Smucker") in an all-stock reverse Morris Trust transaction. In connection with the merger, 38.7 million shares of P&G common stock were tendered by the Company's shareholders and exchanged for all shares of Folgers common stock. Pursuant to the merger, a Smucker subsidiary merged with and into Folgers, and Folgers became a wholly owned subsidiary of Smucker.

Historically, the Company's coffee business was part of its Snacks, Coffee and Pet Care reportable segment, as well as the coffee portion of the P&G Professional (PGP) business which is included in the Fabric Care and Home Care reportable segment. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the Company is now required to present the results of Folgers as discontinued operations. As such, the Company has amended its previously filed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying footnotes to exclude the results of Folgers from both continuing operations and segment results for the years ended June 30, 2008, 2007 and 2006.

This Form 8-K provides revised (1) Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) and (2) Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying footnotes.

Exhibit 99.1 provides a revised Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A); Exhibit 99.2 provides revised Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying footnotes; Exhibit 99.3 provides an updated report of the independent registered public accountant; and Exhibit 23 provides the Consent of Deloitte & Touche LLP.
