MORRIS PLAINS, N.J. -- Nov. 19, 1999 -- Warner-Lambert Company said today
it was pleased with the decision of the Delaware Court of Chancery to
schedule a January 24, 2000 hearing of Pfizer Inc's lawsuit challenging
certain provisions of the Company's merger agreement with American Home
Products.

The Courts' decision to expedite the legal process follows Warner-Lambert's

as promptly as possible in order to resolve the uncertainty that Pfizer's
