PFIZER SAVINGS AND INVESTMENT PLAN FOR EMPLOYEES RESIDENT IN PUERTO RICO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2001 and 2000

Note 1 - Description of the Plan

General - The Pfizer Savings and Investment Plan for Employees Resident in Puerto Rico (the "Plan") is a defined contribution savings plan which was adopted on February 1, 1990. Participation in the Plan is open to all eligible employees of the Puerto Rico branches of Pfizer Pharmaceuticals, LLC, a subsidiary of Pfizer Inc. (the "Company") and Pfizer Corporation, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (individually and collectively, the "Companies"). The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

Under Puerto Rico law, any qualified plan involving pretax contributions or involving a cash or deferred arrangement must comply with one of two nondiscrimination tests. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Plan complied with both discrimination tests.

The following is a general description of certain provisions of the Plan. Refer to the Plan document for a complete description of the Plan.

Contributions - Each participant may make contributions on an after-tax basis and/or a before-tax basis (that is, choose to reduce his or her compensation and have the Companies contribute on his or her behalf). Before and after tax contributions are subject to certain restrictions under the Puerto Rico Income Tax Act of 1954, as amended. Contributions of up to 2% of compensation are matched 100% by the Companies and the next 4% is matched 50%. Employee contributions in excess of 6% are not matched.

Investment Options - Each participant in the Plan elects to have his or her contributions invested in any one or any combination of six investment funds. These funds are described below:

Fund A - Intermediate U.S. Treasury notes and bonds managed to mirror the Lehman Intermediate Treasury Index
Fund B - A collective index fund of corporate common stocks that seeks to mirror the performance of the S&P 500 index
Fund C - Common stock of the Company
Fund E - An index mutual fund of common stocks of companies with market capitalization averaging approximately $500 million
Fund F - A collective index fund of common stocks of large, well-established companies whose price-to-book ratios are, as a whole, typically below the average for the S&P 500 index and whose dividends are typically higher than the average for the S&P 500 index
Fund G - A collective index fund of common stocks of large, well-established companies whose price-to-book ratios are, as a whole, typically above the average for the S&P 500 index and whose dividends are typically lower than the average for the S&P 500 index

The trustee of the Plan, Banco Popular de Puerto Rico, manages investments in certain investment funds and therefore, is deemed a related party. The Plan's trust agreement provides that any portion of any of the funds may, pending its permanent investment or distribution, be invested in short-term investments.

Eligibility and Vesting - Substantially all employees of the Companies who are resident in Puerto Rico are eligible to participate in the Plan beginning on the first payroll run of the following month, after date of hire, or the beginning of any month or payroll period thereafter. A participant is immediately vested in the full value of his or her accounts (i.e., participant and employer contributions).

Payment of Benefits - Upon separation from service, retirement, or disability, a participant may elect to receive a lump sum distribution currently or at any time up to the later of 13 months from separation or age 65, subject to the provisions of the plan. In the event of a participant's death, a spouse beneficiary may elect payment currently or defer payments until the later of when the participant would have reached age 65 or 13 months from date of death. A nonspouse beneficiary may defer payment up until 13 months from the date of death.

Withdrawals - A participant in the Plan may withdraw all or part of his or her account balance subject to the provisions of the Plan.

Termination - The Companies expect to continue the Plan indefinitely, but necessarily reserve the right to amend, suspend or discontinue it in whole or in part, at any time, by action of the Companies' Boards of Directors. In the event of termination of the Plan, each participant shall receive the full value of their account balance as though they had retired as of the date of such termination. No part of the invested assets established pursuant to the Plan will at any time revert to the Companies.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting - The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and changes therein and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment Valuation - Pfizer Inc. common stock is valued at the closing market price on the last business day of the year. Collective index funds and the mutual funds are recorded at fair value based on the closing market prices of the underlying investments held by the fund on the last business day of the year. Interest-bearing deposits are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value.

Security Transactions - Purchases and sales of securities are reflected on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments represent the difference between the net proceeds received and the cost of the investments (average cost if less than the entire investment is sold).

Unrealized Appreciation/(Depreciation) of Investments - Unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) of investments for the year represents the difference between the cost of the investments and their fair value at the end of the year. Additionally, it reflects the reversal of the unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) as of the end of the prior year.

Net Investment Income - Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded as earned.

Note 3 - Income Taxes

No provision has been made for Puerto Rico income tax in reliance upon a determination letter issued by the Puerto Rico Department of Treasury, which states that the Plan meets the requirements of Section 165(a) of the Puerto Rico Income Tax Act of 1954 and that the trust established thereunder is entitled to exemption.

Effective January 1, 1997 and October 1, 1998, the Plan was amended and the Companies obtained another determination letter from the Puerto Rico Department of Treasury which states that the Plan still meets the above requirements. The Plan administrator and the Plan's legal and tax counsel believe that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with all the applicable requirements. Therefore, no provision has been made for Puerto Rico income taxes.

Contributions made to the Plan by the Companies, including before-tax contributions made on the employees' behalf by the Companies and the appreciation on all funds in the employees' account, are not taxable to the employees under Puerto Rico income tax law while these amounts remain in the Plan.

Note 4 - Administrative Costs

Except for certain investment management fees, all costs and expenses of administering the Plan are assumed by the Companies. No management fees were charged to the Plan for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001.

Note 5 - Realized Gains/(Losses) on Investments

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Administrative Committee Pfizer Savings and Investment Plan for Employees Resident in Puerto Rico:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan benefits of the Pfizer Savings and Investment Plan for Employees Resident in Puerto Rico (the "Plan") as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets (held at year end) and reportable transactions, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2001, are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.
