Vote by Telephone You can vote by calling the toll-free telephone number noted on your proxy card. Telephone voting is available 24 hours a day and will be accessible until 11:59 p.m. on April 25, 2001 . Easy-to-follow voice prompts allow you to vote your shares and confirm that your instructions have been properly recorded.

All shares that have been properly voted and not revoked will be voted at the Annual Meeting. If you sign and return your proxy card but do not give voting instructions, the shares represented by that proxy will be voted as recommended by the Board of Directors.

At the date this Proxy Statement went to press, we did not know of any other matters to be raised at the Annual Meeting. 2

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 8; page: 8" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

Consolidation of Your Vote You will receive only one proxy card for all the shares you hold:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• In your own name;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• In the Pfizer Inc. Shareholder Investment Program;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• In the Pfizer Inc. Savings and Investment Plan (the “Pfizer Plan”); or

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• In the Warner-Lambert Savings and Stock Plans for the U.S. or Puerto Rico (the “Warner-Lambert Plans”).

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

If you are a U.S. Pfizer employee who has received stock options under the Pfizer Stock and Incentive Plan, you are entitled to give voting instructions to the trustee of the Pfizer Inc. Employee Benefit Trust (“the Trust”).Your proxy card will serve as a voting instruction card for the trustee. If you do not vote your shares or specify your voting instructions on your proxy card, the administrators of the Pfizer Plans and the Warner-Lambert Plans or the trustee of the Trust will vote your shares in the same proportion as the shares for which voting instructions have been received. To allow sufficient time for voting by the trustee of the Trust and the administrators of the Plans, your voting instructions must be received by April 23, 2001. If you hold Pfizer shares through any other Company plan, you will receive voting instructions from that plan’s administrator. List of Shareholders The names of shareholders of record entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available at the Annual Meeting and for ten days prior to the Meeting, between the hours of 8:45 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., at our offices at 235 East 42nd Street, New York, New York, by contacting the Secretary of the Company. Required Vote The presence of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, is necessary to constitute a quorum. Abstentions are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. A plurality of the votes cast is required for the election of Directors. This means that the Director nominee with the most votes for a particular slot is elected for that slot. Only votes “for” or “against” affect the outcome. Abstentions are not counted for purposes of the election of Directors. The affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting and entitled to vote is required to approve the appointment of KPMG LLP, the Pfizer Inc. 2001 Stock and Incentive Plan and the Pfizer Inc. 2001 Performance Contingent Share Award Plan. Abstentions are not counted as votes “for” or “against” these proposals, but are counted in determining the number of shares present or represented on each of the proposals. Under New York Stock Exchange Rules, if your broker holds your shares in its name, the broker is permitted to vote your shares on the election of Directors, the approval of KPMG LLP as our independent auditors and the approval of the Pfizer Inc. 2001 Stock and Incentive Plan and the Pfizer Inc. 2001 Performance-Contingent Share Award Plan even if it does not receive voting instructions from you. Electronic Delivery of Proxy Materials and Annual Report The notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement and the 2000 Annual Report are available on our Internet site at www.pfizer.com. Instead of receiving paper copies of the Annual Report and Proxy Statement in the mail, shareholders can elect to receive an e-mail which will provide a link to these documents on the Internet. Opting to receive your proxy materials online saves us the cost of producing and mailing bulky documents to your home or business, and gives you an automatic link to the proxy voting site. Shareholders of Record: To enroll in the electronic proxy delivery service, you can go directly to www.econsent.com/pfe and follow the prompts. If you vote by Internet, simply follow the prompts that will link you to www.econsent.com. If you vote by telephone you will be prompted to indicate your interest in the electronic proxy delivery service, but you can enroll in this service only though www.econsent.com. If you vote by mail, check the appropriate box on your proxy card and provide your e-mail address to indicate your interest in electronic delivery. 3

Beneficial Shareholders: Check the information provided to you in the proxy materials mailed to you by your bank or broker. Cost of Proxy Solicitation We will pay the expenses of soliciting proxies. Proxies may be solicited on our behalf by Directors, officers or employees in person or by telephone, electronic transmission and facsimile transmission.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our Directors and executive officers to file reports of holdings and transactions in Pfizer shares with the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange.

GOVERNANCE OF THE COMPANY Our Corporate Governance Principles Role and Composition of the Board of Directors 1. The Board of Directors, which is elected by the shareholders, is the ultimate decision-making body of the Company except with respect to those matters reserved to the shareholders. It selects the senior management team, which is charged with the conduct of the Company’s business. Having selected the senior management team, the Board acts as an advisor and counselor to senior management and ultimately monitors its performance. 2. The Board also plans for succession to the position of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer as well as certain other senior management positions. To assist the Board, the Chairman and CEO annually provides the Board with an assessment of senior managers and their potential to succeed him or her. He or she also provides the Board with an assessment of persons considered potential successors to certain senior management positions. 3. It is the policy of the Company that the positions of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer be held by the same person, except in unusual circumstances. This combination has served the Company well over a great many years. The function of the Board in monitoring the performance of the senior management of the Company is fulfilled by the presence of outside Directors of stature who have a substantive knowledge of the business. 4. It is the policy of the Company that the Board consist of a majority of outside Directors and that the number of Directors not exceed a number that can function efficiently as a body. The Corporate Governance Committee, in consultation with the Chairman and CEO, considers and makes recommendations to the Board concerning the appropriate size and needs of the Board. The Corporate Governance Committee considers candidates to fill new positions created by expansion and vacancies that occur by resignation, by retirement or for any other reason. When a Director’s principal occupation or business association changes substantially during his or her tenure as a Director, that Director shall tender his or her resignation for consideration by the Corporate Governance Committee. The Corporate Governance Committee will recommend to the Board the action, if any, to be taken with respect to the resignation. Candidates are selected for their character, judgment, business experience and acumen. Scientific expertise, prior government service and familiarity with national and international issues affecting business are among the relevant criteria. Final approval of a candidate is determined by the full Board. The Corporate Governance Committee annually reviews the compensation of Directors. All Directors are expected to own stock in the Company in an amount that is appropriate for them. 5. It is the general policy of the Company that all major decisions be considered by the Board as a whole. As a consequence, the committee structure of the Board is limited to those committees considered to be basic to or required for the operation of a publicly owned company. Currently these committees are the Executive Committee, Audit Committee, Executive Compensation Committee and Corporate Governance Committee. The members and chairs of these committees are recommended to the Board by the Corporate Governance Committee in consultation with the Chairman and CEO. The Audit Committee, Executive Compensation Committee and Corporate Governance Committee are made up of only outside Directors. The membership of these three committees is rotated from time to time. 5

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 11; page: 11" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

1. In furtherance of its policy of having major decisions made by the Board as a whole, the Company has a full indoctrination process for new Board members that includes extensive materials, meetings with key management and visits to Company facilities. 7. It is the policy of the Company that the chairs of the Audit, Executive Compensation and Corporate Governance committees of the Board each act as the chair at meetings or executive sessions of the outside Directors at which the principal items to be considered are within the scope of the authority of his or her committee. Experience has indicated that this practice, which has been in place on an informal basis, provides for leadership at all of the meetings or executive sessions of outside Directors without the need to designate a lead Director. 8. The Executive Compensation Committee is responsible for setting annual and long-term performance goals for the Chairman and CEO and for evaluating his or her performance against such goals. The Committee meets annually with the Chairman and CEO to receive his or her recommendations concerning such goals. Both the goals and the evaluation are then submitted for consideration by the outside Directors of the Board at a meeting or executive session of that group. The Committee then meets with the Chairman and CEO to evaluate his or her performance against such goals. The Executive Compensation Committee also is responsible for setting annual and long-term performance goals and compensation for the direct reports to the Chairman and CEO. These decisions are approved or ratified by action of the outside Directors of the Board at a meeting or executive session of that group. 9. The Chairman and CEO is responsible for establishing effective communications with the Company’s stakeholder groups, i.e., shareholders, customers, company associates, communities, suppliers, creditors, governments and corporate partners. It is the policy of the Company that management speaks for the Company. This policy does not preclude outside Directors from meeting with shareholders, but it is suggested that any such meetings be with management present. Functioning of the Board 1. The Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer sets the agenda for Board meetings with the understanding that certain items pertinent to the advisory and monitoring functions of the Board be brought to it periodically by the Chairman and CEO for review and/or decision. For example, the annual corporate budget is reviewed by the Board. Agenda items that fall within the scope of responsibilities of a Board committee are reviewed with the chair of that committee. Any member of the Board may request that an item be included on the agenda. 2. Board materials related to agenda items are provided to Board members sufficiently in advance of Board meetings where necessary to allow the Directors to prepare for discussion of the items at the meeting. 3. At the invitation of the Board, members of senior management recommended by the Chairman and CEO attend Board meetings or portions thereof for the purpose of participating in discussions. Generally, presentations of matters to be considered by the Board are made by the manager responsible for that area of the Company’s operations. In addition, Board members have free access to all other members of management and employees of the Company. 4. Executive sessions or meetings of outside Directors without management present are held at least once each year to review the report of the outside auditors, the criteria upon which the performance of the Chairman and CEO and other senior managers is based, the performance of the Chairman and CEO against such criteria, and the compensation of the Chairman and CEO and other senior managers. Additional executive sessions or meetings of outside Directors may be held from time to time as required. Executive sessions or meetings are held from time to time with the Chairman and CEO for a general discussion of relevant subjects. 6

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 12; page: 12" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

Functioning of Committees 1. The Audit, Executive Compensation and Corporate Governance committees consist of only outside Directors. 2. The frequency, length and agenda of meetings of each of the committees are determined by the chair of the committee. Sufficient time to consider the agenda items is provided. Materials related to agenda items are provided to the committee members sufficiently in advance of the meeting where necessary to allow the members to prepare for discussion of the items at the meeting. 3. The responsibilities of each of the committees are determined by the Board from time to time. Periodic Review These principles are reviewed by the Board from time to time. 7

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 13; page: 13" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

Board and Committee Membership Our business, property and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board of Directors. Members of our Board are kept informed of our business through discussions with our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and other officers, by reviewing materials provided to them, by visiting our offices and plants and by participating in meetings of the Board and its committees. During 2000, the Board of Directors met 12 times and had four committees. Those committees consisted of an Audit Committee, a Corporate Governance Committee, an Executive Compensation Committee, and an Executive Committee. All of our Directors attended 75 percent or more of the regularly scheduled and special meetings of the Board and Board committees on which they served in 2000. The table below provides membership and meeting information for each of the Board committees.

Fees and Benefit Plans for Non-Employee Directors Annual Cash Retainer Fees. Non-employee Directors receive an annual cash retainer fee of $26,000 per year. Non-employee Directors who serve on one or more Board committees (other than the Executive Committee) receive an additional annual fee of $4,000. In addition, the Chair of a Board committee receives an additional $2,000 per year, per committee. Meeting Fees. Non-employee Directors also receive a fee of $1,500 for attending each Board meeting, committee meeting, the Annual Meeting of Shareholders, each day of a visit to a plant or office of ours or our subsidiaries, and for attending any other business meeting to which the Director is invited as a representative of the Company. Unit Awards and Deferred Compensation. Under the Pfizer Inc. Nonfunded Deferred Compensation and Unit Award Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “Unit Award Plan”), a non-employee Director is granted an initial award of 3,600 units when he or she becomes a Director. Afterwards, each non-employee Director is granted an annual award of 3,600 units (“Annual Unit Award”) on the day of our Annual Meeting, provided the Director continues to serve as a Director following the Meeting. The awards under the Unit Award Plan are made in addition to the Directors’ annual cash retainers and meeting attendance fees. Such units are not payable until the recipient ceases to be a Director. Under the Unit Award Plan, non-employee Directors may defer all or a part of their annual cash retainers and meeting fees until they cease to be Directors. At a Director’s election, the fees held in the Director’s account may be credited either with interest at the rate of return of the Intermediate Bond Fund of the Pfizer Inc. Savings and Investment Plan, or with units. The units are calculated by dividing the amount of the fee by the closing price of our common stock on the last business day before the date that the fee would be paid. The number of units in a Director’s account is increased by the value of any distributions on the common stock. When an individual ceases to be a Director, the amount held in the Director’s account is paid in cash. The amount paid is determined by multiplying the number of units in the account by the closing price of the common stock on the last business day before the payment date. 11

On the day of the 2000 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, all of our non-employee Directors (excluding Messrs. Burt, Gray, Howell, Lorch, Mandl and Sovern, who became Directors of the Company after completion of our acquisition of Warner-Lambert) who continued as Directors were awarded 3,600 units under the Unit Award Plan. Retainer Unit Awards. Under the Pfizer Inc. Annual Retainer Unit Award Plan, Directors receive the equivalent of their annual retainer fee in similarly restricted units. These awards are in addition to the Annual Unit Awards, the Directors’ annual cash retainers and meeting attendance fees, and are made annually on the day of our Annual Meeting. The number of units awarded to the non-employee Directors is based upon the five-day average of the closing trading price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the first five trading days after April 1 of each year (rounded up to the nearest unit). On the day of the 2000 Annual Meeting, all non-employee Directors who continued as Directors were awarded 672 units under this Plan. Trusts. In certain circumstances, we must fund trusts established to secure our obligations to make payments to our Directors under the above benefit plans, programs or agreements in advance of the date that payment is due. Related Transactions From time to time in 2000, we have asked Dr. Brown to provide consulting services in connection with our business. He received a total of $18,000 for those services. We anticipate that Dr. Brown will continue to provide similar services to us in the future as he and we may agree upon from time to time. We have business arrangements with organizations with which certain of our Directors are affiliated. However, none of these arrangements is material to either us or any of those organizations. We incurred expenses for the personal use of Company transportation of $1,601 by Dr. Brown. We incurred expenses for the payment of premiums for continued coverage under Warner-Lambert’s life, medical, dental and AD&D insurance policies for certain of the former Warner-Lambert Directors who joined our Board after our acquisition of Warner-Lambert. We paid total premiums of $840 for Mr. Howell, $564 each for Messrs. Lorch and Mandl and $1,572 for Mr. Sovern. Indemnification We indemnify our Directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law so that they will be free from undue concern about personal liability in connection with their service to the Company. This is required under our By-laws, and we have also signed agreements with each of those individuals contractually obligating us to provide this indemnification to them. 12

ITEM 1—ELECTION OF DIRECTORS The Board of Directors is divided into three classes. With Mr. Harvey’s retirement after the 2001 Annual Meeting, two classes will consist of six Directors and one class will consist of seven Directors whose terms expire at successive annual meetings. Six Directors will be elected at the Annual Meeting to serve for a three-year term expiring at our Annual Meeting in 2004. The persons named in the enclosed proxy intend to vote the proxy for the election of each of the six nominees, unless you indicate on the proxy card that your vote should be withheld from any or all of the nominees. If you are voting by telephone or on the Internet, you will be told how to withhold your vote from some or all of the nominees. Each nominee elected as a Director will continue in office until his or her successor has been elected, or until his or her death, resignation or retirement. The Board of Directors has proposed the following nominees for election as Directors with terms expiring in 2004 at the Annual Meeting: Robert N. Burt, W. Don Cornwell, Henry A. McKinnell, Dana G.

ITEM 2—APPROVAL OF AUDITORS The Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of its Audit Committee, has appointed KPMG LLP to serve as our independent auditors for 2001, subject to the approval of our shareholders. Representatives of KPMG LLP will be present at the Annual Meeting to answer questions. They will also have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so. Audit Fees The aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered for the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, and for the reviews of the financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for that fiscal year, were $8,300,000, of which $8,200,000 were attributable to KPMG LLP. Financial Information Systems Design and Implementation Fees KPMG LLP did not render professional services relating to financial information systems design and implementation for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000. All Other Fees The aggregate fees billed by KPMG LLP for services rendered to the Company, other than the services described above under “Audit Fees” for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, were $9,200,000. The vast majority of these fees relate to audit and tax activities in support of the Company, including services rendered in connection with the Warner-Lambert transaction. The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the approval of KPMG LLP as our independent auditors for 2001. Audit Committee Report The Audit Committee reviews the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the system of internal controls. In this context, the Committee has met and held discussions with management and the independent auditors. Management represented to the Committee that the Company’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and the Committee has reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements with management and the independent auditors. The Committee discussed with the independent auditors matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communication With Audit Committees). In addition, the Committee has discussed with the independent auditors the auditors’ independence from the Company and its management, including the matters in the written disclosures required by the Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions With Audit Committees). The Committee has also considered whether the independent auditors’ provision of information technology and other non-audit services to the Company is compatible with the auditors’ independence. The Committee discussed with the Company’s internal and independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their respective audits. The Committee meets with the internal and independent auditors, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations, the evaluations of the Company’s internal controls , and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting. In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board has approved, that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Committee and the Board also have recommended, subject to shareholder approval, the selection of the Company’s independent auditors. The Audit Committee:

ITEM 3—APPROVAL OF THE PFIZER INC. 2001 STOCK AND INCENTIVE PLAN On February 2, 2001, the Executive Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) adopted the Pfizer Inc. 2001 Stock and Incentive Plan (the “2001 Plan”). The Board of Directors approved the 2001 Plan on February 22, 2001, subject to shareholder approval at the Annual Meeting. The Committee reviewed the Company’s current Stock and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and the Warner-Lambert Company 1996 Stock Plan (the “Warner-Lambert 1996 Plan”), the only Warner-Lambert stock plan that we assumed in connection with our acquisition of Warner-Lambert from which future options or awards may be granted. Based on this review, the Committee determined that an insufficient number of shares are available under these plans to enable Pfizer to provide future grants of stock options and other stock awards to our employees. From the inception of Pfizer’s current Stock and Incentive Plan in 1965, through December 31, 2000, options covering 1,244,202,680 shares (including options that subsequently terminated or lapsed and were regranted under the terms of the Plan) have been granted to employees under this Plan. From 1965 through December 31, 2000, options for 826,960,762 shares have been exercised. A total of 262,004,065 shares were subject to outstanding options as of such date, leaving 81,626,060 shares available for future options or awards. As of December 31, 2000, a total of 39,344,722 shares were subject to outstanding options under all of the stock-based compensation plans assumed by the Company from Warner-Lambert, other than the Warner-Lambert 1996 Plan. From the inception of the Warner-Lambert 1996 Plan through December 31, 2000, options covering 121,805,891 shares (including options that subsequently terminated or lapsed and were regranted under the terms of the Warner-Lambert 1996 Plan) have been granted to employees. From 1996 through December 31, 2000, options for 22,312,842 shares have been exercised. A total of 94,264,787 shares were subject to outstanding options as of such date, leaving 55,622,091 shares available for future options or awards. If the 2001 Plan is approved by our shareholders, no further options or awards will be granted under these existing plans. The Board believes that by allowing us to continue to offer our employees long-term, performance-based compensation through the 2001 Plan, we will continue to be able to attract, motivate and retain experienced and highly qualified employees who will contribute to our financial success. It is the judgment of the Board of Directors that approval of the 2001 Plan is in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders. The 2001 Plan provides for the granting of stock options and stock awards to our employees. The 2001 Plan does not permit the repricing of options or the grant of discounted options. Provisions have been included to meet the requirements for deductibility of executive compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the “Code”) with respect to options and other awards by qualifying payments under the Plan as performance-based compensation. To minimize the dilutive effect of our stock-based awards and for other reasons, the Company will continue its practice of acquiring shares in the open market. In September 1998, the Board authorized a $5 billion share-purchase program. Approximately 111.6 million shares have been repurchased under the program so far. The following is a brief description of the 2001 Plan. The full text of this Plan is attached as Annex 2 and the following description is qualified in its entirety by reference to this Annex. Administration and Duration The selection of participants in the 2001 Plan and the level of participation of each participant will be determined by the Executive Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Each member of the Committee must be a “Non-Employee Director” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and an “outside director” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code. Currently the Committee is comprised of five independent directors who are not employees of the Company. The Committee will have the authority to interpret the 2001 Plan, to establish and revise rules and regulations relating to the 2001 Plan, and to make any other determinations that it believes necessary or advisable for the administration of the 2001 Plan. The Committee may delegate any or all of its authority to administer the 2001 Plan as it deems appropriate, except that no delegation may be made in the case of awards intended to be qualified under Section 162(m) of the Code. 22

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 28; page: 28" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

The 2001 Plan will terminate on December 31, 2010, unless terminated earlier by the Executive Compensation Committee. Limit On Award Under the 2001 Plan The maximum number of shares as to which stock options and stock awards may be granted under the 2001 Plan is 250,000,000 shares. During the ten-year term of the 2001 Plan, no person may be granted stock options or stock awards of more than 2,000,000 shares in any calendar year. The shares to be delivered under the 2001 Plan will be made available from the authorized but unissued shares of Pfizer common stock or from treasury shares. Shares initially issued under the 2001 Plan that become subject to lapsed or cancelled awards or options, and shares tendered in a stock-for-stock exercise of options, will be available for further awards and options. Eligibility All employees of the Company and its subsidiaries will be eligible to participate in the Plan. From time to time, the Committee will determine the employees who will be granted awards, and the number of shares subject to such grants. It is expected that these determinations will be based on each individual’s current and potential contribution to the success of Pfizer and its subsidiaries. At the discretion of the Committee, a participant may receive any combination of options and stock awards. Directors who are not employees of the Company or its subsidiaries are not eligible to participate. The present Directors and nominees for election as Directors who will be eligible to receive options and awards under the 2001 Plan are Dr. Henry A. McKinnell and Dr. John F. Niblack. Stock Options Options granted under the 2001 Plan may be either non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options qualifying under Section 422 of the Code. The price of any stock option granted may not be less than the fair market value of the stock on the date the option is granted. The option price is payable in cash or, if the grant provides, in common stock. Generally, no option may be exercised during the first year of its term or such longer period as may be specified in the option. The 2001 Plan allows the Committee to make unvested stock options immediately exercisable upon a change of control of the Company. A “change in control” includes:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• certain changes in the composition of more than 50% of the Board;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• the acquisition by a third party of 20% or more of our common stock;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• a merger

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• a sale of all or substantially all of our assets; or

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• shareholder approval of a plan of liquidation.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

The 2001 Plan also allows the Committee, in its discretion, to make unvested options immediately exercisable:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• where an optionee’s employment is to be terminated due to a divestiture or a downsizing by us;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• for a retiring optionee who holds options with extended vesting provisions; or

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• to prevent inequities.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

Generally, all options terminate after a ten-year period from the date of the grant; however, an option may be exercisable for a period of up to ten years and six months, if necessary, to conform with or take advantage of certain governmental requirements, statutes or regulations. 23

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 29; page: 29" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

The Committee determines the terms of each stock option grant at the time of the grant. Shares from the 2001 Plan underlying options that have terminated or lapsed, including options that have been surrendered unexercised, may be made subject to further options or awards at an exercise price of no less than the fair market value of the underlying stock at the time of the further grant, a term of no longer than 10 years (except as described above), and a vesting period of one or more years from the grant date (except as described above). Stock Awards The 2001 Plan provides for the granting of stock awards that generally vest after one or more years from the date of the grant, and which consist of shares of common stock issued to participating employees as additional compensation for their services to us. Prior to vesting, shares will be subject to forfeiture if a grantee terminates his or her employment during the restricted period, unless the grantee’s employment ends as a result of disability, death, retirement or a change in control of the Company. No more than 2.5 million shares will be granted as restricted stock or equivalent awards under the 2001 Plan. Transferability Generally, options or awards granted to an employee under the 2001 Plan may not be transferred except by will or the laws of descent and distribution and, during his or her lifetime, any options or awards may be exercised only by the employee. The Committee has the authority, however, to permit non-qualified options to be transferred to members of the employee’s immediate family and certain family trusts or partnerships. Certain Adjustments In the event of any change in the number or kind of outstanding shares of common stock of the Company by reason of a recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization, separation, liquidation, stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares or any other change in the corporate structure or shares of stock of the Company, an appropriate adjustment will be made consistent with applicable provisions of the Code and applicable Treasury Department rulings and regulations:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• in the number and kind of shares for which any options or awards may thereafter be granted, both in the aggregate and as to each optionee;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• in the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding options and awards;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• in the option price; and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• other adjustments as the Committee deems appropriate.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

Amendment and Revocation The Committee may amend or revoke the Plan, but may not, without prior approval of our shareholders:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• increase the maximum number of shares of common stock which may be issued under the 2001 Plan or the number of shares of common stock which may be issued to any one participant;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• extend the term of the 2001 Plan or of options granted under that Plan; or

Tax Treatment of Options and Awards Incentive Stock Options An incentive stock option results in no taxable income to the optionee or a deduction to us at the time it is granted or exercised. However, the excess of the fair market value of the shares acquired over the option price is an item of adjustment in computing the alternative minimum taxable income of the optionee. If the optionee holds the stock received as a result of an exercise of an incentive stock option for at least two years from the date of the grant and one year from the date of exercise, then the gain realized on disposition of the stock is treated as long-term capital gain. If the shares are disposed of during this period, however, (i.e., a “disqualifying disposition”), then the optionee will include in income, as compensation for the year of the disposition, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares, upon exercise of the option over the option price (or, if less, the excess of the amount realized upon disposition over the option price). In such case, we will be entitled to a deduction, in the year of such a disposition, for the amount includible in the optionee’s income. The optionee’s basis in the shares acquired upon exercise of an incentive stock option is equal to the option price paid, plus any amount includible in his income as a result of a disqualifying disposition. Non-Qualified Stock Options A non-qualified stock option results in no taxable income to the optionee or deduction to us at the time it is granted. An optionee exercising such an option will, at that time, realize taxable compensation in the amount of the difference between the option price and the then market value of the shares. Subject to the applicable provisions of the Code, a deduction for federal income tax purposes will be allowable to us in the year of exercise in an amount equal to the taxable compensation realized by the optionee. The optionee’s basis in such shares is equal to the sum of the option price plus the amount includible in his income as compensation upon exercise. Any gain (or loss) upon subsequent disposition of the shares will be long-term or short-term gain (or loss), depending upon the holding period of the shares. If a non-qualified option is exercised by tendering previously-owned shares of the Company’s common stock in payment of the option price, then, instead of the treatment described above, the following will apply. A number of new shares equal to the number of previously-owned shares tendered will be considered to have been received in a tax-free exchange; the optionee’s basis and holding period for such number of new shares will be equal to the basis and holding period of the previously-owned shares exchanged. The optionee will have compensation income equal to the fair market value on the date of exercise of the number of new shares received in excess of such number of exchanged shares; the optionee’s basis in such excess shares will be equal to the amount of such compensation income, and his holding period in such shares will begin on the date of exercise. Stock Awards No income will be recognized at the time of grant by the recipient of a stock award if such award is subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. Generally, at the time the substantial risk of forfeiture terminates with respect to a stock award, the then fair market value of the stock will constitute ordinary income to the employee. Subject to the applicable provisions of the Code, a deduction for federal income tax purposes will be allowable to us in an amount equal to the compensation realized by the employee. Outside The United States The grant and exercise of options and awards under the 2001 Plan to employees outside the United States may be taxed on a different basis. On February 28, 2001, the closing price of our common stock traded on the New York Stock Exchange, as published in the Wall Street Journal, was $45.00 per share The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is required for approval of the 2001 Plan. The Board unanimously recommends a vote FOR the proposal to approve the Pfizer Inc. 2001 Stock and Incentive Plan. 26

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 32; page: 32" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

ITEM 4—APPROVAL OF THE PFIZER INC. 2001 PERFORMANCE-CONTINGENT SHARE AWARD PLAN The Company currently maintains a Performance-Contingent Share Award Program under which certain executives of the Company and its subsidiaries are eligible to receive annual awards. Under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, publicly held companies such as Pfizer may not deduct compensation paid to certain executive officers to the extent that the compensation exceeds $1 million in any one year for each of these executives. The regulations provide for an exception for “performance-based compensation,” including stock options granted under a stock option plan that has been previously approved by the public company’s shareholders, provided that the options are not issued below the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. The Company’s proposed 2001 Stock and Incentive Plan, if approved by our shareholders, will meet these requirements. Compensation other than stock options, however, must meet additional requirements in order to qualify as tax deductible “performance-based compensation.” Therefore, upon the recommendation of the Executive Compensation Committee, the Board has decided to take all actions that will be required for the Pfizer Inc. 2001 Performance-Contingent Share Award Plan, (the “2001 PCSA Plan”) which will provide long-term compensation in conjunction with the 2001 Stock and Incentive Plan, to qualify as deductible, “performance-based” compensation under the Code. If approved by our shareholders, this Plan will replace the current, similar program which was approved in 1994 and no further awards will be initiated under that program. The following is a brief summary of the proposed 2001 PCSA Plan. The complete text of this Plan is attached as Annex 3, and the following discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to this Annex. Plan Description The 2001 PCSA Plan is designed to promote the retention of key employees, to compensate these employees based on the Company’s achievement of corporate performance goals and to optimize employee motivation. The 2001 PCSA Plan emphasizes long-term compensation values over short-term pay opportunities and encourages stock retention by the Company’s key employees in the face of stock market fluctuations. Our 100 highest ranking employees are eligible to participate in this Plan. Under the 2001 PCSA Plan, our Executive Compensation Committee may grant participating employees an opportunity to earn shares of common stock, provided certain performance criteria are met. The performance formula is non-discretionary, and is comprised of two performance criteria:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• total shareholder return (including reinvestment of dividends); and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• growth in diluted earnings per share.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

These criteria are measured point-to-point over the applicable performance period (not greater than five years) relative to the performance of our Peer Group, which is comprised of the companies listed in the footnote to the Performance Graph appearing later in this Proxy Statement. To the extent that the Company’s performance exceeds the low end of the range of performance, a varying number of shares up to the maximum will be earned. The maximum number of shares that may be awarded under the proposed Plan is 12.5 million. In addition, no eligible employee will be granted Performance-Contingent Share Awards for more than 500,000 shares of our common stock for any one full, five-year performance period. Actual awards generally will be a fraction of this annual limit and will be correlated with awards under the 2001 Stock and Incentive Plan. Receipt of shares awarded under the 2001 PCSA Plan may be deferred by an employee participant. In the event of any change in the number or kind of outstanding shares of common stock of the Company by reason of a recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization, separation, liquidation, stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares or any other change in the corporate structure or shares of stock of the Company, an appropriate adjustment will be made consistent with the applicable provisions of the Code and applicable Treasury Department rulings and regulations, in the number and kind of shares available and awarded under this Plan. 27

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 33; page: 33" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

As discussed above, awards under the 2001 PCSA Plan are based on the long-term performance of the Company. The operation of the 2001 PCSA Plan will be generally the same as the current program. Therefore, in the table below, we are showing the awards that would have been earned by the individuals and groups indicated using the performance criteria established for the current program and based upon the performance of the Company for the periods ending in 2000. These awards are the same as the awards earned by the Named Executive Officers under the current Performance-Contingent Share Award Program for the period ended December 31, 2000, which are shown in the “LTIP Payouts” column of the Summary Compensation Table.

The current program is discussed in further detail in the Executive Compensation Committee Report. The cumulative number of shares awarded and pending under the current Performance-Contingent Share Award Program since its approval in 1994 is approximately 20.1 million shares. Requirements for Tax Deductibility Under the Code, Performance-Contingent Share Awards granted in 2001 and thereafter will be deductible if: (1) such shares are paid solely on account of the attainment of one or more pre-established objective performance goals; (2) the performance goals under which the shares are to be paid are established by a committee comprised solely of two or more outside directors; (3) the committee certifies in writing prior to payment of the shares that the performance goals and any other material terms of payment were satisfied; and (4) the material terms of the performance goals under which the shares are to be paid are disclosed to shareholders and subsequently approved by a majority of the votes cast on this proposal at the Annual Meeting. In connection with the Performance-Contingent Share Awards that may be granted to Company employees in 2001 and thereafter, the Executive Compensation Committee will ensure that the first three requirements listed above will be met. Shareholder approval of the material terms of the proposed 2001 PCSA Plan must be obtained in order for the Company to be able to take tax deductions for the value of these Performance-Contingent Shares in the future. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is required for approval of the 2001 PCSA Plan. The Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the proposal to approve the Pfizer Inc. 2001 Performance-Contingent Share Award Plan. 28

Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards in 2000 This table gives information concerning the participation of the Named Executive Officers in a long-term compensation plan called the Performance-Contingent Share Award Program. Under this plan, they were awarded the right to earn shares of our common stock (“Performance-Contingent Shares”). Actual payouts of these Performance-Contingent Shares, if any, will be determined by a non-discretionary formula which measures our performance over a five-year period using certain performance goals that were determined by our Executive Compensation Committee and approved by the Board. The formula is comprised of two performance criteria, total shareholder return (including reinvestment of dividends) and growth in diluted earnings per share, over the performance period relative to the industry Peer Group. If our minimum performance in both measures is below the threshold level relative to the Peer Group, then no Performance Contingent Shares will be earned. To the extent the Company’s performance on either or both measures exceeds the threshold performance level relative to the Peer Group, a varying amount of shares of common stock up to the maximum will be earned. These awards are also discussed in the Executive Compensation Committee Report.

Executive Compensation Committee Report Overview of Compensation Philosophy and Program The Executive Compensation Committee establishes the salaries and other compensation of the executive officers of the Company, including its Chairman and CEO and other executive officers named in the Compensation Table (the “Named Executive Officers”). The Committee consists entirely of independent Directors who are not officers or employees of the Company. The Company’s executive compensation program is designed to:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• retain executive officers by paying them competitively, motivate them to contribute to the Company’s success, and reward them for their performance;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• link a substantial part of each executive officer’s compensation to the performance of both the Company and the individual executive officer; and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• encourage significant ownership of Company common stock by executive officers.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

As discussed below, the program consists of, and is intended to balance, three elements:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• Salaries. Salaries are based on the Committee’s evaluation of individual job performance and an assessment of the salaries and total compensation mix paid by the Company’s Peer Group to executive officers holding equivalent positions. This Peer Group consists of the ten health care companies referred to in the Performance Graph that follows this report.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• Executive Annual Incentive Awards. Executive Annual Incentive Awards are based on an evaluation of both individual and Company performance against quantitative and qualitative measures.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• Long-Term Incentive Compensation. Long-term incentive awards, which consist of stock options and Performance-Contingent Share Awards, are designed to ensure that incentive compensation is linked to the long-term performance of the Company and its common stock.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

In addition, the Named Executive Officers and other members of senior management are expected to own a minimum amount of common stock under the Company’s stock ownership program. The program is intended to further tie the interests of management to the interests of shareholders. Evaluation of Executive Performance The Committee does not rely solely on predetermined formulae or a limited set of criteria when it evaluates the performance of the Chairman and CEO and the Company’s other executive officers. Instead, the Committee considers:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• management’s overall accomplishments;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• the accomplishments of the individual executives;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• the Company’s financial performance; and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• other criteria discussed below.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

In 2000, management continued to effectively implement its long-term strategies which included:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• leveraging our strategic focus as a health care company by completing the acquisition of Warner-Lambert;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• improving operating margins;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• continuing the implementation of projects to optimize organizational effectiveness and productivity;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• maintaining the flow of new product candidates in the Company’s research pipeline; and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• augmenting the Company’s research and marketing abilities with external collaborations and partnerships.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

33

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 39; page: 39" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

The Committee believes that the success of these strategies is evidenced by:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• the successful conclusion of the Warner-Lambert acquisition;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• exceeding the merger related synergy/cost savings targets;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• the smooth integration of the Pfizer and Warner-Lambert organizations, processes and cultures;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• the Company’s operating margins;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• the breadth of the current product portfolio which drove considerable sales growth, resulting in the Company’s position as the number one pharmaceutical company;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• the acceptance of the Company’s products in the current marketplace; and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• the number of promising product candidates under development by the Company.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

The Committee also considers management’s responses to the changes occurring within the global marketplace for health care products and services. The unprecedented discovery by the pharmaceutical industry of innovative medicines that effectively treat chronic as well as acute health problems has focused attention on the issues of access and adequate third-party coverage for prescription drugs, particularly for low-income individuals and the elderly. It is the Committee’s opinion that management continues to effectively develop and implement strategies within the marketplace and at the local and federal levels of government to address these issues, enabling the Company to remain a leader in the healthcare industry. In addition, Mr. Steere, Dr. McKinnell and the senior management team are undertaking significant actions to communicate the Company’s position on health care issues to its shareholders, the public and the government. The success of these efforts and their benefits to the Company cannot, of course, be quantifiably measured, but the Committee believes they are vital to the Company’s continuing success. Total Compensation To establish target total compensation levels of Company executives, the Committee considers competitive market total compensation. The total compensation package for each executive is then broken down into the three basic components indicated above, as discussed in more detail below. The Committee intends to continue its strategy to compensate its executives by maintaining its emphasis on performance-based incentive compensation. Based on available public data and the analysis of its outside compensation advisors, the total compensation of Mr. Steere and the other Named Executive Officers generally fell in the upper quartile of total compensation paid by the Peer Group to their executives holding equivalent positions, and the Committee believes that position was consistent with the outstanding performance of the Company compared to the Peer Group. Salaries In setting the 2000 salaries of the Chairman and CEO and the other executive officers, the Committee:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• evaluated each officer’s individual job performance;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• assessed the Company’s performance; and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• considered salaries paid by the Peer Group to executive officers holding equivalent positions.

Chairman and CEO. Mr. Steere’s salary in 2000 totaled $1,616,000. As a result of his planned retirement in mid-2001, Mr. Steere did not receive an increase in salary for 2001. Dr. McKinnell, who assumed the CEO responsibilities as of January 1, 2001, received a salary of $984,100 in 2000. For 2001, it has been set at $1,350,000 which reflects his promotion to CEO.

Executive Annual Incentive Awards In 1997, the Board of Directors adopted and the shareholders approved the Pfizer Inc. Executive Annual Incentive Plan. Under the terms of this plan a maximum award of 0.3% of Adjusted Net Income as defined in the plan was established for each employee participating in the plan. This maximum exceeds the current level of Annual Incentive Awards made by the Committee and the Committee will continue to base the awards on Company and individual performance criteria within the established maximum. For 2000, an Annual Incentive Award of $3,232,000 for Mr. Steere and $1,426,900 for Dr. McKinnell were approved by the Committee and confirmed by the Board. The Annual Incentive Awards for 2000 paid to each of the Named Executive Officers are shown in the “Bonus”column of the Summary Compensation Table. Long-Term Incentive Compensation In 2000, Mr. Steere, Dr. McKinnell and the other executive officers participated in the Company’s long-term incentive compensation program. As discussed below, the program consisted of:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• stock option grants made under the Company’s Stock and Incentive Plan; and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• awards made under the Company’s Performance-Contingent Share Award Program.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

As a result of the acquisition of Warner-Lambert, the Committee has recommended to the Board of Directors that a new Stock and Incentive Plan and a new Performance-Contingent Share Award Plan be submitted for shareholder approval. These plans, included in Annex 2 and Annex 3 and described in Items 3 and 4 , will provide a basis for future stock options and awards which are designed to attract, retain and motivate our employees. If the new Plans are approved by shareholders, no future awards will be granted from the current plans; however, stock options and awards granted prior to the adoption of the new Plans will continue to be governed by the current Plans. (a) Stock Options The Committee granted Key-Employee Stock Options to each executive officer in 2000 under the Company’s Stock and Incentive Plan. In selecting the size of the Key-Employee Stock Option grants, the Committee reviewed:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• competitive data relating to similar grants made by the Peer Group to executive officers holding comparable positions;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• each officer’s individual job performance;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• the individual stock ownership of the Company’s executive officers; and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• the interrelationship with the Performance-Contingent Share Awards established for the 2000-2004 performance period for such officers.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

Chairman and CEO. Based upon this data, Mr. Steere was awarded Key-Employee Stock Options for 800,000 shares of common stock and Dr.McKinnell was awarded Key-Employee Stock Options for 330,000 shares of common stock. Other Named Executive Officers. The other Named Executive Officers were awarded the number of Key-Employee Stock Options shown in the table headed “Option Grants in 2000.” The Key-Employee Stock Options of the Named Executive Officers and all other executive officers will vest over a five-year period, with 20 percent of the options vesting each year. Key-Employee Stock Options granted to Mr. Steere and the other Named Executive Officers, when combined with the value of the Performance-Contingent Shares that these officers may potentially earn, are targeted to fall at the median range of the value of long-term incentives granted by the Peer Group to executive officers holding comparable positions, subject to the following:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10 In 1"

• The target assumes that the Company’s performance also falls at the median of the Peer Group’s performance.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• If the Company’s actual performance exceeds the median performance of the Peer Group, however, the total value of long-term incentive awards (which would include Performance-Contingent Share Awards discussed below) will be higher than the median awards made by the Peer Group.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

35

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 41; page: 41" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• Similarly, if the Company’s performance falls below the median performance of the Peer Group, the total value of the long-term incentive awards would fall below the median awards of the Peer Group.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

(b) Performance-Contingent Share Awards No new awards were established for Mr. Steere under the Performance-Contingent Share Awards Program (the “Program”) due to his planned retirement in mid-2001. The Committee established awards for Dr. McKinnell and other executive officers, including the other Named Executive Officers, for the 2001-2005 performance period under the Program. The potential size of each award, including the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be earned by each executive officer, was established by the Committee after examining long-term compensation awarded by the Peer Group to executive officers holding comparable positions. Payments pursuant to the awards are determined by using a non-discretionary formula comprised of the following two performance criteria measured over the applicable performance period relative to the performance of the Peer Group:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10 In 1"

• total shareholder return; and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10 In 1"

• earnings per share growth.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

The performance formula weighs each criterion equally. If our performance in both measures is below the threshold level relative to the Peer Group, then no Performance-Contingent Shares will be earned. To the extent that the Company’s performance on either or both measures exceeds the threshold performance level relative to the Peer Group, a varying amount of shares of common stock up to the maximum will be earned. Based on the Company’s performance during the 1996-2000 performance period, Mr. Steere and the other Named Executive Officers earned 519,120 Performance-Contingent Shares under the Program award formula described above. Chairman and CEO. The total number of such shares earned by Mr. Steere for the 1996-2000 performance period was 210,000. The total number of such shares earned by Dr. McKinnell for the 1996-2000 performance period was 110,040, and the number of Performance-Contingent Shares that Dr. McKinnell may earn at the end of the five-year performance period (1/1/2001-12/31/2005) will range from 0 to 300,000. In reviewing the Company’s performance relative to the Peer Group and the resulting awards under the Program, the Committee determined that the reduction in the Program awards due to the Warner-Lambert merger-related costs was inappropriate, given the substantial favorable impact of the acquisition on Pfizer Inc. and its shareholders. Therefore, the Committee granted 502,380 shares of restricted stock under the Pfizer Stock and Incentive Plan to the Program participants, based on the difference in the actual Program awards and the awards that would have been earned if the merger-related costs were excluded. This resulted in a restricted stock grant of 60,000 shares for Mr. Steere, 31,440 shares for Dr. McKinnell, and 56,880 shares for the other Named Executive Officers. All other executive officers received 113,760 shares of restricted stock. Other Named Executive Officers. The total number of shares earned by each of the Named Executive Officers for the 1996-2000 Program is shown in footnote 5 to the “LTIP Payouts” column of the Summary Compensation Table. The number of Performance-Contingent Shares that the other Named Executive Officers may earn at the end of the five-year performance period 1/1/2001-12/31/2005 is shown in the table headed “Long–Term Incentive Plan-Awards in 2000.” Tax Policy on Deductibility of Compensation Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limits the tax deduction available to the Company to $1 million for compensation paid (not including amounts which by agreement are required to be deferred) to the Company’s five most highly compensated officers, unless certain requirements are met. One requirement is that the Committee consist entirely of outside Directors. The Committee meets this requirement. Another requirement is that compensation over $1 million must be based upon Company attainment of performance goals approved by the shareholders. The Executive Annual Incentive Plan meets this requirement. In addition, stock options awarded under the Company’s Stock and Incentive Plan are “performance-based” and are eligible for an exception to the deduction limitation. The Committee expects that all incentive compensation of the Company’s five most highly compensated officers will qualify as a tax deductible expense when paid. 36

Stock Ownership Program Upon this Committee’s recommendation, the Board adopted a stock ownership program in August 1993. The program defines “stock ownership” as stock owned by the executive officer directly or through the Company’s Savings and Investment Plan or awarded pursuant to the Performance-Contingent Share Award Program and subsequently deferred. Under the current guidelines of the program established by the Committee, employee Directors (currently Mr. Steere, Dr. McKinnell and Dr. Niblack) are required to own Company common stock equal in value to at least five times their annual salaries. The program also extends to the other Named Executive Officers and other members of the Corporate Management Committee, who are required to own Company common stock equal in value to at least four times their annual salaries. All other executive officers are required to own Company stock with a value equivalent to three times their annual salaries, and all other participants in the Performance-Contingent Share Award Program are required to own an amount equal in value to their annual salary. The Committee has determined that, as of the end of 2000, all executive officers, except one recently appointed officer, met the guidelines established by the Committee.

Employee Benefit and Long-Term Compensation Plans Retirement Annuity Plan The Retirement Annuity Plan (the “Retirement Plan”) is a funded, tax-qualified, noncontributory defined-benefit pension plan that covers certain employees, including the Named Executive Officers. Benefits under the Retirement Plan are based upon the employee’s years of service and the final average earnings for the five highest calendar years with us and/or our “Associate Companies” and are payable after retirement in the form of an annuity or a lump sum. Earnings covered by the Retirement Plan are base pay, bonus, and long-term incentive compensation, excluding gains on stock option exercises. The amount of annual earnings that may be considered in calculating benefits under the Retirement Plan is limited by law. For 2001, the annual limitation is $170,000. Benefits under our Retirement Plan are calculated as an annuity equal to the greater of:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• 1.4 percent of the participant’s final average earnings for the five highest calendar years multiplied by years of service; or

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• 1.75 percent of such earnings less 1.5 percent of Primary Social Security benefits multiplied by years of service.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

Years of service under these formulas cannot exceed 35. Contributions to the Retirement Plan are made entirely by us and are paid into a trust fund from which the benefits of participants will be paid. The Retirement Plan currently limits pensions paid under the Plan to an annual maximum of $140,000, payable at age 65. We also have an unfunded supplemental plan that provides out of our general assets an amount substantially equal to the difference between the amount that would have been payable under the Retirement Plan, in the absence of legislation limiting pension benefits and earnings that may be considered in calculating pension benefits, and the amount actually payable under the Retirement Plan. In certain circumstances, we must fund trusts established to secure obligations to make payments under the supplemental plan. Pension Plan Table The following table shows, for the final compensation and years of service indicated, the annual pension benefit payable commencing upon retirement at age 65 under the present benefit formula of the Retirement Plan and its related supplemental plan. The estimated retirement benefits have been computed on the assumptions that:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• payments will be made in the form of a 50 percent joint and survivor annuity (and both the Plan member and spouse are age 65);

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• during the period of employment the employee received annual compensation increases of six percent; and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• the employee retired as of December 31, 2000.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

As of December 31, 2000, Mr. Steere had 35 years; Dr. McKinnell had 30 years; Dr. Niblack had 33 years; Ms. Katen had 26 years; and Mr. Shedlarz had 24 years under the Retirement Plan and the related supplemental plan.

Compensation covered by the Retirement Plan and its related supplemental plan for the Named Executive Officers equals the amounts set forth in the 2000 “Salary,” “Bonus” and “LTIP Payouts” columns of the Summary Compensation Table. Performance-Contingent Share Award Program Under the current Performance-Contingent Share Award Program, participating employees may be granted an opportunity by our Executive Compensation Committee to earn shares of common stock, provided certain performance criteria are met. The performance formula is nondiscretionary and is comprised of two performance criteria:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10 In 1"

• total shareholder return (including reinvestment of dividends); and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10 In 1"

• growth in diluted earnings per share (as reported);

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

measured point-to-point over the applicable performance period relative to the performance of the Peer Group. Our 200 most highly compensated employees are eligible to participate. Except for awards made in 1993, all awards granted under the Program are based upon a five-year performance period. Awards earned by the Named Executive Officers under this Program for the performance period ended December 31, 2000, are shown in the “LTIP Payouts” column of the Summary Compensation Table. Receipt of shares awarded under this Program may be deferred. This Program will be replaced by the 2001 PCSA Plan, as described in Item 4 in this Proxy Statement, if that Plan is approved by our shareholders, and no further awards will be granted under this Program. However awards granted under the Program will continue to vest after that time. Executive Annual Incentive Plan The Named Executive Officers and other senior employees participate in the Executive Annual Incentive Plan. The purpose of the Annual Incentive Plan is to ensure the tax deductibility of the bonus for the Company. The maximum individual annual bonus under this plan is 0.3% (three tenths of one percent) of Adjusted Net Income. The Annual Incentive Plan defines “Adjusted Net Income” to mean income before cumulative effect of accounting changes as shown on the audited Consolidated Statement of Income of the Company. If income before cumulative effect of accounting changes is not shown on the Statement, then Adjusted Net Income will mean net income as shown on the Statement. Receipt of bonuses paid from this Plan can be deferred until a later date or retirement. Deferred bonuses may be invested in either a Pfizer unit fund or an interest-bearing fund. Savings and Investment Plan Under the Savings and Investment Plan (the “Savings Plan”), a tax-qualified retirement savings plan, participating employees may contribute up to 15 percent of regular earnings into their Savings Plan accounts. A participating employee may elect to make after-tax contributions, before-tax contributions, or both after-tax and before-tax contributions. In addition, under the Savings Plan, we contribute an amount equal to one dollar for each dollar contributed by participating employees up to the first two percent of their regular earnings and fifty cents for each additional dollar contributed by employees on the next four percent of their regular earnings. Our matching contributions are invested solely in our common stock. Effective for 2001, the Savings Plan limits the additions that can be made to a participating employee’s account to $35,000 per year. The term “additions” includes our matching contributions, before-tax contributions made by us at the request of the participating employee under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, and employee after-tax contributions. Of those additions, the current maximum before-tax contribution is limited to $10,500 per year. In addition, no more than $170,000 of annual compensation may be taken into account in computing benefits under the Savings Plan. We have a Supplemental Plan to pay out of general assets an amount substantially equal to the difference between the amount that, in the absence of legislation limiting such additions and the $170,000 limitation on earnings, would have been allocated to a participating employee’s account as employee before-tax contributions, our matching contributions and the amount actually allocated under the Savings Plan. 40

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 46; page: 46" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

Employees affected by these limitations who make deferrals of income under this Supplemental Plan receive credit for such deferrals towards their retirement benefit under our retirement plans. In certain circumstances, we must fund trusts established to secure obligations to make payments under the Supplemental Plan. Amounts deferred, if any, under the Savings Plan and the related Supplemental Plan by the Named Executive Officers are included in the “Salary” and “Bonus” columns of the Summary Compensation Table. Our matching contributions allocated to the Named Executive Officers under the Savings Plan and the related Supplemental Plan are shown in the “All Other Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table. Stock and Incentive Plan Under the Stock and Incentive Plan, our employees may be granted stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards (including restricted stock awards and performance-based stock awards), or performance unit awards, either as a result of a general grant or as a result of an award based on having met certain performance criteria. Where an employee is also an executive officer, the performance criteria are determined by the Executive Compensation Committee. Our non-employee Directors are not eligible to participate in this Plan. This Plan will be replaced by the 2001 Plan, as described in Item 3 of this Proxy Statement, if the 2001 Plan is approved by our shareholders, and no further options or awards will be granted under this Plan. However, outstanding awards and options granted under this Plan will continue to vest and such options may be exercised after the 2001 Plan is in effect. Warner-Lambert Company 1996 Stock Plan Under the Warner-Lambert 1996 Stock Plan, our employees may be granted stock options or stock awards (including restricted stock awards and performance-based stock awards), either as a result of a general grant or as a result of an award based on having met certain performance criteria. As a result of the change in control of Warner-Lambert, all stock options and restricted stock awards outstanding as of June 19, 2000, became immediately exercisable or vested. Under the Warner-Lambert 1996 Stock Plan, the Directors of Warner-Lambert could elect to defer any or all of the compensation they received for their services. Under the Plan, these deferred amounts could have been credited to a Warner-Lambert Common Stock Equivalent Account (the “Equivalent Account”). That Equivalent Account was credited, as of the day the fees would have been payable, with stock credits equal to the number of shares of Warner-Lambert common stock that could have been purchased with the dollar amount of such deferred fees. The former Warner-Lambert Directors, Messrs. Burt, Gray, Howell, Lorch, Mandl and Sovern, who joined our Board after the acquisition, had deferred compensation and were entitled to Warner-Lambert stock credits in the Equivalent Account under this Plan. Upon the closing of the merger, these Warner-Lambert stock credits were converted into Pfizer stock units. These units will be payable in Pfizer common stock at various times in accordance with the individual’s election. These units are described in footnote 6 to the table entitled “Securities Ownership of Officers and Directors.” No future grants will be made under the Plan if the 2001 Plan described in Item 3 of this Proxy Statement is approved by our shareholders. However, outstanding awards and options granted under this Plan will continue to vest and such options may be exercised after the 2001 Plan is in effect. Employment Agreement In 2001, we entered into an employment agreement with Dr. McKinnell that provides for his employment as Chief Executive Officer of the Company through February 29, 2008. Dr. McKinnell’s agreement provides that he will receive an annual base salary of at least $1,350,000, and will be eligible to receive an incentive bonus in accordance with the guidelines established by the Executive Compensation Committee, as well as to participate in our executive benefit and incentive plans (including stock-based plans). 41

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 47; page: 47" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

Under the terms of the agreement, if Dr. McKinnell’s employment is terminated by reason of death, disability or retirement, he is entitled to receive (a) a payment equal to his base salary through the date of termination to the extent not already paid, (b) a prorated portion of his incentive bonus based on his prior year’s incentive bonus, (c) his actual earned incentive bonus for any period not already paid, (d) amounts to which he is entitled under our benefit plans, (e) vesting of outstanding unvested stock options and other equity-based awards, and (f) continued coverage in our health benefit plans. If Dr. McKinnell’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by Dr. McKinnell for good reason (as defined in the agreement), he is entitled to receive (a) a payment equal to his base salary earned but unpaid through the date of termination, a prorated portion of his incentive bonus based on the prior year’s incentive bonus, and any incentive bonus amount earned but not yet paid, (b) a payment equal to his annual base salary plus the most recent year’s incentive bonus multiplied by the greater of (i) two or (ii) the number of years remaining on the contract, (c) vesting of outstanding stock options and equity-based awards, (d) benefits under all plans for a period of two years following termination, as well as vesting of all awards under the plans, and (e) continued coverage in the Company’s health benefit plans. If any payment or distribution by the Company to Dr. McKinnell is determined to be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, he is entitled to receive from the Company a payment on an after-tax basis equal to the federal, state and local income and excise taxes imposed, and any penalties and interest. The agreement also contains provisions that restrict Dr. McKinnell’s ability to engage in any business which is competitive with the Company’s business for a period of one year following his retirement or termination for cause or without good reason or to solicit Company employees for a period of two years following such a termination. Consulting Agreement We entered into a consulting agreement with Mr. Steere in 2000 which provides that, following his retirement, he will serve as Chairman Emeritus of the Company and, when and as requested by the Chief Executive Officer, provide consulting and advice to the Company and participate in various external activities and events for the benefit of the Company. The initial term of the agreement is for 5 years, and will automatically extend for successive 5-year terms unless Mr. Steere or the Company terminates the agreement at the end of its then current term. Mr. Steere will provide up to 30 days per year to the Company, subject to his reasonable availability, for his consulting services or his participation as a Company representative in external activities and events. He will obtain the approval of the Board of Directors before providing any consulting, advice or service of any kind to any other company or organization that competes with us. For his services and commitments, the Company will pay Mr. Steere (i) an annual retainer of $50,000 (subject to his ability to continue to provide the contemplated services), and (ii) a fee of $5,000 for each day he renders services. We will also reimburse him for reasonable travel and living expenses that he incurs in providing these services for us. In addition, we will provide him continued lifetime access to Company facilities and services comparable to those that are currently made available to him by the Company. Severance Agreements We have entered into severance agreements with our executive officers, including each of the Named Executive Officers. The agreements continue through September 30 of each year, and provide that they are to be automatically extended in one-year increments unless we give prior notice of termination. These agreements are intended to provide for continuity of management in the event of a change in control. The agreements provide that covered executive officers could be entitled to certain severance benefits following a change in control of the Company. If, following such a change in control, the executive officer is terminated for any reason, other than for disability or for cause, or if such executive officer terminates his or her employment for good reason (as defined in the agreements), then the executive officer is entitled to a severance payment that will be 2.99 times the greater of (i) the executive officer’s base amount, as defined in the agreements or (ii) the sum of the executive officer’s (a) base salary in effect at the time of termination and (b) the higher of the (x) last full-year annual incentive payment or (y) target annual incentive payment for the year in which termination occurs. The severance payment generally would be made in the form of a lump sum. 42

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 48; page: 48" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

In addition, in the event of such a termination following a change in control, under the agreements each executive officer would receive a payout of all outstanding Performance-Contingent Share Awards that had been granted prior to the date of termination at the maximum amounts that could have been earned pursuant to the awards, along with all shares earned but deferred in accordance with the deferral feature of the Performance-Contingent Share Award Program. The executive officer would also receive a benefit payable from our general funds calculated using the benefit calculation provisions of our Retirement Annuity Plan and our unfunded Supplemental Retirement Plan with the following additional features:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10 In 1"

• the executive officer would receive credit for an additional three years of service and compensation for purposes of calculating such benefit;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10 In 1"

• the benefit would commence at age 55 (or upon the date of termination, if the executive officer is then over age 55) and for this purpose, three years would be added to the executive officer’s age;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10 In 1"

• such benefit would be further determined without any reduction on account of its receipt prior to age 65; and

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10 In 1"

• such benefit would be offset by any amounts otherwise payable under our Retirement Annuity Plan and unfunded Supplemental Retirement Plan.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

The executive officer would also become vested in all other benefits available to our retirees. All restrictions on restricted stock awarded to such executive officer would lapse and all unvested options granted to such executive officer would vest and become exercisable for the remainder of the term of the option. If a change in control occurs, the agreements are effective for a period of four years from the end of the then existing term. Under the severance agreements, a change in control would include any of the following events:

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• any “person”, as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, acquires 20 percent or more of our voting securities;

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• a majority of our Directors are replaced during a two-year period; or

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Bullet 10 In 1"

• shareholders approve certain mergers, or a liquidation or sale of our assets.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

In the event that any payments made in connection with a change in control would be subjected to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, we will “gross up” the executive officer’s compensation for all federal, state and local income and excise taxes and any penalties and interest. In certain circumstances, we must fund trusts established to secure our obligations to make payments under the severance agreements in advance of the time payment is due. 43

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10"

1. Purpose

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

The purpose of the Pfizer Inc. 2001 Stock and Incentive Plan (“the Plan”) is to furnish a material incentive to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries by making available to them the benefits of a larger Common Stock ownership in the Company through stock options, awards and otherwise. It is believed that these increased incentives stimulate the efforts of employees towards the continued success of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as assist in the recruitment of new employees.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10"

1. Administration

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

The Plan shall be administered and interpreted by the Executive Compensation Committee, consisting of not less than three persons appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company from among its members. A person may serve on the Executive Compensation Committee only if he or she (i) is a “Non-employee Director” for purposes of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), and (ii) satisfies the requirements of an “outside director” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Executive Compensation Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, and subject to the provisions of the Plan, from time to time establish such rules and regulations and delegate any or all of its authority to administer the Plan to any other persons or committee as it deems necessary or appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan, except that no such delegation shall be made in the case of stock options or awards intended to be qualified under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. The decisions of the Executive Compensation Committee or its authorized designee (“the Committee”) shall be final, conclusive, and binding with respect to the interpretation and administration of the Plan and any grant made under it. The Committee shall make, in its sole discretion, all determinations arising in the administration, construction or interpretation of the Plan and stock options and awards under the Plan, including the right to construe disputed or doubtful Plan, stock option or award terms and provisions, and any such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all persons, except as otherwise provided by law.

1. Total Number of Shares

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

Subject to the provisions of Section 8(a), the maximum amount of stock which may be issued under the Plan is 250,000,000 shares of the Common Stock of the Company. No participant under this Plan shall be granted (i) options or awards which could result in such participant receiving in any calendar year more than 2,000,000 shares of the total number of shares of Common Stock, or (ii) any option or award if such participant owns more than ten percent of the stock of the Company within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, or (iii) any incentive stock option, as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, which would result in such participant receiving a grant of incentive stock options for stock that would have an aggregate fair market value in excess of $100,000, determined as of the time that the option is granted, that would be exercisable for the first time by such participant during any calendar year. Any shares which are not purchased or awarded under an option or other award which has terminated or lapsed, either by its terms or pursuant to the exercise, in whole or in part, of an award or right granted under the Plan may be used for the further grant of options or awards.

1. Participation in Plan

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

(a) Employees: All employees of the Company or its subsidiaries shall be eligible to participate in this Plan.

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 54; page: 54" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

(b) Ineligible Persons: For any and all purposes under this Plan, the term “employee” shall not include a person hired as an independent contractor, leased employee, consultant or a person otherwise designated by the Company at the time of hire as not eligible to participate in or receive benefits under the Plan, even if such ineligible person is subsequently determined to be an “employee” by any governmental or judicial authority. (c) Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate any participant’s employment at any time, nor confer upon any participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary. No employee shall have the right to be selected to receive an option or other award under this Plan or having been so selected, to be selected to receive a future award grant or option. Neither the award nor any benefits arising out of this Plan shall constitute part of a participant’s employment contract with the Company or any Subsidiary and, accordingly, this Plan and the benefits hereunder may be terminated at any time in the sole and exclusive discretion of the Company without giving rise to liability on the part of the Company or any Subsidiary for severance payments. The awards under this Plan are not intended to be treated as compensation for any purpose under any other Company plan.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10"

1. Terms and Conditions of Options

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

All options under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: (a) Option Price.

(b) Number of Shares. The option shall state the number of shares of Common Stock covered thereby. (c) Exercise of Option. An option will be deemed exercised by the optionee, or in the event of death, an option shall be deemed exercised by the estate of the optionee, or by a person who acquired the right to exercise such option by bequest or inheritance or by reason of the death of the optionee, upon delivery of (i) a notice of exercise to the Company or its representative, or by using other methods of notice as the Committee shall adopt, and (ii) accompanying payment of the option price in accordance with any restrictions as the Committee shall adopt. The notice of exercise, once delivered, shall be irrevocable. (d) Term of Option. The Committee shall determine the option exercise period of each stock option.

(e) First Exercisable Date. No option may be exercised during the first year of its term or such longer period as may be specified in the option; provided, however, in the event that the Board of Directors of the Company determines that a “Change of Control” of the Company has occurred or will occur, as that term is defined in Section 8 (d), any options or awards that are not yet exercisable or vested become exercisable or vested as of the Change of Control, and further provided that the Committee may in its discretion make any options that are not yet exercisable immediately exercisable in cases where (i) an optionee’s employment is to be terminated due to a divestiture or downsizing of a business, (ii) in the case of a retiring optionee who holds options with extended vesting provisions, or (iii) otherwise, where the Committee determines that such action is appropriate to prevent inequities with respect to an optionee. ii

1. Stock Awards

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

Stock awards will consist of shares of Common Stock of the Company issued to participants. Each stock award to a participant shall provide that the shares subject to such award may not be transferred or otherwise disposed of by the participant prior to the expiration of a period or periods specified therein, which shall not occur earlier than one year following the date of the award (except that the award or the Committee may permit the earlier lapse of such restriction in the event of the participant’s death, disability or retirement pursuant to any pension or retirement plan maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), and that the Company shall have the right to reacquire such shares upon termination of the participant’s employment with the Company while such restriction is in effect, such reacquisition to be upon the terms and conditions provided in the award. Stock awards shall also be subject to such other terms and conditions as the Committee shall deem advisable or appropriate consistent with the provisions of the Plan as herein set forth. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, the maximum amount of stock awards which may be issued under this Section 7 shall not exceed 2,500,000 shares of the Common Stock of the Company.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Hang Arabic 10"

1. Conditions Applicable to All Options and Awards

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

(a) Recapitalization. In the event of any change in the number or kind of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company by reason of a recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization, separation, liquidation, stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares or any other change in the corporate structure or shares of stock of the Company, an appropriate adjustment will be made, in accordance with applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and Treasury Department rulings and regulations thereunder, in the number and kind of shares for which any options or awards may thereafter be granted both in the aggregate and as to each optionee, as well as in the number and kind of shares theretofore granted and the price payable. In no event may any change be made to an incentive stock option which would constitute a “modification” under Section 424(h)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Committee may adjust awards to preserve the benefits or potential benefits of the awards or otherwise in a manner not inconsistent with applicable provisions of the Code and regulations. Action by the Committee may include, without limitation: (i) adjustment of the number and kind of shares which may be delivered under the Plan; (ii) adjustment of the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding awards; (iii) adjustment of the exercise price of outstanding options; and (iv) any other adjustments the Committee determines to be equitable. Any such determination shall be final and binding on all parties. (b) Transferability. Options and awards shall not be transferable other than by Will or the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable, during the optionee’s or grantee’s lifetime, only by the optionee or grantee; provided, however, that the Committee in its discretion may grant (or sanction by way of an amendment to an existing grant) non-qualified stock options which may be transferred by the optionee, solely as gifts during the optionee’s lifetime, to any member of the optionee’s immediate family or to a trust established for the exclusive benefit of one or more members of the optionee’s immediate family, in which case the terms of such option shall so state. As used in this subsection, immediate family shall mean any spouse, child, stepchild or grandchild of an optionee, and shall include any of the foregoing relationships arising from legal adoption. iii

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 56; page: 56" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

(c) Leave of Absence. If approved by the Committee, an employee’s absence or leave because of military or governmental service, disability or other reason shall not be considered an interruption of employment for any purpose of the Plan. (d) Change of Control. Change of Control shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) at any time during the two-year period following the Effective Date, or the beginning of a renewal term as the case may be, at least a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors shall cease to consist of “Continuing Directors” (meaning directors of the Company who either were directors at the beginning of such two-year period or who subsequently became directors and whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders, was approved by a majority of the then Continuing Directors); or (ii) any “person” or “group” (as determined for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), except any majority-owned Subsidiary of the Company or any employee benefit plan of the Company or any trust thereunder, shall have acquired “beneficial ownership” (as determined for purposes of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation 13d-3) of shares of Common Stock of the Company having 20% or more of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company, unless such acquisition is approved by a majority of the directors of the Company in office immediately preceding such acquisition; or (iii) a merger or consolidation occurs to which the Company is a party, whether or not the Company is the surviving corporation, in which outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company are converted into shares of another company (other than a conversion into shares of voting Common Stock of the successor corporation or a holding company thereof representing 80% of the voting power of all capital stock thereof outstanding immediately after the merger or consolidation) or other securities (of either the Company or another company) or cash or other property; or (iv) the sale of all, or substantially all, of the Company’s assets occurs; or (v) the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company. (e) Applicable Law. Any option or other award shall contain a provision that it may not be exercised at a time when the exercise thereof or the issuance of shares thereunder would constitute a violation of any federal or state law or listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange for such shares or a violation of the applicable laws of any foreign jurisdiction where options or other awards are or will be granted under the Plan. The provisions of the Plan shall be construed, regulated and administered according to the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws, except to the extent superseded by any controlling Federal statute. (f) Performance Based Awards. The Committee may designate whether any award under Section 7 being granted to any employee is intended to be “performance-based compensation” as that term is used in Section 162(m) of the Code. Any such awards designated to be “performance-based compensation” shall be conditioned on the achievement of one or more Performance Measures, to the extent required by Code Section 162(m). The Performance Measures that may be used by the Committee for such awards shall be based on any one or more of the following as selected by the Committee: Total shareholder return, earnings per share growth, increase in revenue, share price appreciation, return on assets, return on equity, inventory utilization, total asset utilization and operating income growth. For such awards intended to be “performance-based compensation,” the grant of the awards and the establishment of the Performance Measures shall be made during the period required under Code Section 162(m). (g) Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right to deduct applicable taxes from any option or award payment and withhold, at the time of delivery or vesting of cash or shares of Common Stock under this Plan, an appropriate amount of cash or number of shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof for payment of taxes required by law or to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for withholding of such taxes. The Committee may also permit withholding to be satisfied by the transfer to the Company of shares of Common Stock theretofore owned by the holder of the option or award with respect to which withholding is required. If shares of Common Stock are used to satisfy tax withholding, such shares shall be valued based on the Common Stock’s fair market value when the tax withholding is required to be made. iv

ANNEX 3 Pfizer Inc. 2001 Performance-Contingent Share Award Plan 1. Purpose: The 2001 Performance-Contingent Share Award Plan is designed to promote the retention of key employees, to compensate such employees based on the Company’s achievement of corporate performance criteria and to optimize employee motivation. The Plan emphasizes long-term compensation values over short-term pay opportunities and encourages stock retention by the Company’s key employees in the face of stock market fluctuations. 2. Definitions: a) Committee — the Executive Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Pfizer Inc. b) Company — Pfizer Inc. and its subsidiary companies. c) Peer Group — an industry peer index compiled or revised by the Committee, as appropriate, that currently consists of the following companies: Abbott Laboratories, American Home Products Corp., Baxter International Inc., Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Colgate-Palmolive Co., Johnson & Johnson, Eli Lilly and Company, Merck and Co., Inc., Schering-Plough Corp. and Pharmacia Corp. d) Performance-Contingent Shares — shares of Pfizer Inc. common stock that may be awarded under this Plan to eligible employees of the Company. For shares to be issued to any such employee, however, certain preestablished Company performance criteria must be met. e) Performance Period — The period for determining the Company’s performance, which shall not be longer than five calendar years, nor shorter than two calendar years, as determined by the Committee. Interim phase-in periods apply to new participants and are designed to account for shorter Performance Periods within the initial five-year period. The interim phase-in awards shall provide for an award equal to the full five-year award multiplied by a fraction equal to the number of years of the phase-in divided by five (5) as follows: initial two-year period — 40% of awards; initial three-year period — 60% of awards; initial four-year period — 80% of awards; and a full five-year period — 100% of awards. However, the period for determining the Company’s performance for the phase-in awards will commence at the beginning of the phase-in period. f) Plan — the 2001 Performance-Contingent Share Award Plan. 3. Eligibility: The 100 highest ranking employees of the Company, as determined by grade or similar leveling structure, are eligible to be granted the opportunity by the Committee to earn Performance-Contingent Shares based upon the Company’s achievement of predetermined corporate performance criteria. For any and all purposes under this Plan, the term “employee” shall not include a person hired as an independent contractor, leased employee, consultant or a person otherwise designated by the Company at the time of hire as not eligible to participate in or receive benefits under the Plan, even if such ineligible person is subsequently determined to be an “employee” by any governmental or judicial authority. 4. Participation: The Committee shall select an eligible employee for participation under the Plan by delivering to such employee, prior to the start of the applicable Performance Period, an award letter that specifies the objective performance criteria and the number of Performance-Contingent Shares payable upon the attainment of such criteria. The award shall also be subject to such other terms and conditions as the Committee shall deem advisable or appropriate consistent with the provisions of the Plan as herein set forth. Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any subsidiary to terminate any participant’s employment at any time, nor confer upon any participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any subsidiary. No employee shall have the right to be selected to receive an award under this Plan or having been so selected, to be selected to receive a future award. Neither the award nor any benefits arising out of this Plan shall constitute part of a participant’s employment contract with the Company or any subsidiary and, accordingly, this Plan and the benefits hereunder may be terminated at any time in the sole and exclusive discretion of the Company without giving rise to liability on the part of the Company or any subsidiary for severance payments. The awards under this Plan are not intended to be treated as compensation for any purpose under any other Company plan. i

*********** MARKER PAGE="sheet: 60; page: 60" MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Page Width Begin"

1. Award of Performance-Contingent Shares: The total number of shares to be awarded under the Plan is limited to 12.5 million shares of Pfizer Inc. common stock. No eligible employee will be granted Performance-Contingent Shares for more than 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for any Performance Period consisting of five years, or as adjusted ratably for interim phase-in awards in accordance with Section 2(e) of the Plan. Actual awards will generally be a fraction of the maximum and will be correlated with awards under the Company’s stock option plan. The maximum number of Performance-Contingent Shares to be awarded will be determined by the Committee each year prior to the start of the Performance Period and shall be set forth in the award letter provided to each eligible employee. The Committee has no discretion to increase the maximum award to any participant who remains at the same grade or similar leveling structure throughout the Performance Period. However, notwithstanding the preceding sentence, should a participant’s responsibilities within the Company change prior to the completion of a Performance Period, the corresponding award may be adjusted to reflect the new level of responsibilities in the Committee’s sole and absolute discretion. 6. Determination of Corporate Performance Formula: Awards of Performance-Contingent Shares are determined by a preestablished, non-discretionary formula comprised of two performance criteria — total shareholder return (including reinvestment of dividends) and diluted earnings per share — measured over the applicable Performance Period relative to the Peer Group. The targets under the performance formula shall be established by the Committee before the start of the Performance Period. The performance formula weighs each criterion equally. To the extent that the Company’s performance exceeds the low end of the range of performance of the Peer Group in either or both of the performance criteria, a varying amount of shares up to the maximum will be earned, all as set forth in the award letter. Receipt of awards may be deferred by an employee participant in accordance with rules established by the Committee. 7. Administration of the Plan: The Plan is administered by the Committee (consisting solely of three or more outside directors, within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, who are also non-employee directors within the meaning of Rule 16b-3(b)(3)(i) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). In addition to preestablishing the targets under the performance formula and the number of shares awardable to each participant, the Committee must certify in writing prior to final payment of the shares that the performance criteria and other material terms of payment were, in fact, satisfied. The Committee shall make, in its sole discretion, all determinations arising in the administration, construction or interpretation of the Plan including the right to construe disputed or doubtful Plan terms and provisions, and any such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all persons, except as otherwise provided by law. 8. Termination of Employment: If a Plan participant is not employed at the end of the Performance Period due to death, disability or termination of employment following a Change in Control, as defined under Pfizer’s stock option plan, a determination of shares payable, if any, to the Plan participant or his or her estate will be made, as soon as practicable, on the basis of the Company’s performance during the full calendar years of the Performance Period that elapsed before the employee’s termination of employment. The number of Performance-Contingent Shares to be awarded shall be determined by multiplying the Performance-Contingent Shares otherwise awardable by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of years completed during the Performance Period before termination of employment (whole or partial), and the denominator of which is the original length of the Performance Period. If a Plan participant is not employed at the end of the Performance Period due to retirement under one of the Company’s retirement plans, an award pro-rated for the number of years and months he was employed during the Performance Period may be provided, in the Committee’s sole and absolute discretion, shortly after the completion of the Performance Period. ii

1. Recapitalization: In the event of any change in the number or kind of outstanding shares of common stock of the Company by reason of a recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization, separation, liquidation, stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares or any other change in the corporate structure or shares of stock of the Company, an appropriate adjustment will be made, in accordance with applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and Treasury Department rulings and regulations thereunder, in the number and kind of shares for which any awards may thereafter be granted both in the aggregate and as to each grantee, as well as in the number and kind of shares theretofore granted and the price or unit value payable. The Committee may adjust awards to preserve the benefits or potential benefits of the awards or otherwise in a manner not inconsistent with applicable provisions of the Code and regulations. Action by the Committee may include, without limitation: (i) adjustment of the number and kind of shares which may be delivered under the Plan; (ii) adjustment of the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding awards; and (iii) any other adjustments the Committee determines to be equitable. Any such determination shall be final and binding on all parties. 10. Amendment of Plan: The Committee shall have the right to alter, amend or revoke the Plan or any part thereof at any time and from time to time, provided, however, the Committee may not, without the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock, make any alteration or amendment to the Plan which increases the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may be issued under the Plan or the number of shares of such stock which may be issued to any one participant. iii
