<P ALIGN="LEFT" STYLE="text-indent: 15pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=2>I am General Counsel of The
Clorox Company, a Delaware corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;). This opinion is being
rendered in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement on Form S-8
(the &#147;Registration Statement&#148;) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
&#147;Commission&#148;) by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
&#147;Securities Act&#148;), for the registration of 10,000,000 shares of its common
stock, $1.00 par value per share (the &#147;Stock&#148;), to be issued pursuant to The
Clorox Company 2005 Stock Incentive Plan, Amended and Restated as of November
14, 2012 (the &#147;Plan&#148;). </FONT><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT></P>
<P ALIGN="LEFT" STYLE="text-indent: 15pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=2>In connection with this
opinion, I have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified
to my satisfaction, of (i) the Registration Statement, (ii) the Restated

(iv) resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company authorizing the
issuance of the Stock and (v) such other instruments, certificates, records and
documents, and such matters of law, as I have considered necessary or
appropriate for the purposes hereof. </FONT><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT></P>
<P ALIGN="LEFT" STYLE="text-indent: 15pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=2>Based upon the foregoing,
subject to the limitations and qualifications contained in this opinion, I am of
the opinion that:</FONT></P>
<P ALIGN="LEFT" STYLE="text-indent: 15pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=2>1. The issuance of the Stock
has been duly authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company. </FONT><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT></P>
<P ALIGN="LEFT" STYLE="text-indent: 15pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=2>2. Upon issuance and delivery
of the Stock, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Stock
will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. </FONT><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT></P>
<P ALIGN="LEFT" STYLE="text-indent: 15pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=2>The opinions expressed herein
are limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law, and I express no opinion as
to the laws of any other state or jurisdiction. </FONT><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT></P>

this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of my
name, as counsel, therein. In giving the foregoing consent, I do not thereby
admit that I am in the category of persons whose consent is required under
