ITEM 5.02   DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS

On June 12, 2018, the Compensation & Leadership Development Committee of the Board of Directors of The Procter & Gamble Company (the "Company") approved the amendment and restatement of the Summary of the Company's Short Term Achievement Reward Program ("STAR"), effective July 1, 2018. STAR is the Company's annual cash bonus program. Among other things, STAR was modified to expand the potential ranges for both the Company Factor and the Business Unit Factor to 0% - 200% from 70% - 130% and 50% - 150%, respectively; move from a multiplicative model for the Company Factor and the Business Unit Factor to an additive model for the two factors; and change from an equal weighting of the Company Factor and the Business Unit Factor in determining awards to a 30% / 70% weighting of the Company Factor and the Business Unit Factor, respectively. These modifications are designed to better align individual employee bonus awards with the results they deliver.

The foregoing description of the modifications to STAR does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the amended and restated Summary of the Company's Short Term Achievement Reward Program. A copy of the amended and restated Summary of the Company's Short Term Achievement Reward Program is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
