                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT


                  THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made as of June
15, 1999, between WARNER CHILCOTT PUBLIC LIMITED COMPANY., a public limited
company organized under the laws of Ireland (the "Company"), and Diane Cady
("Executive").

                                    RECITALS

                  WHEREAS the Company and Executive desire and agree to enter
into an employment relationship by means of this employment agreement.

                  NOW THEREFORE in consideration of the promises and mutual
covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

                  1. EMPLOYMENT.

                  (a) The Company hereby agrees to hire Executive as its Senior
Vice President, Investor Relations and Corporate Communications to render
full-time services to the Company and to perform such other duties commensurate
with such office.

                  (b) Executive hereby accepts such employment and agrees to
render the services described above to the best of her abilities in a diligent,
trustworthy, businesslike and efficient manner.

                  (c) The duties to be performed by Executive hereunder shall be
performed primarily at the U.S. office of the Company at Rockaway Corporate
Center, 100 Enterprise Drive, Suite 280, Rockaway, New Jersey 07866, subject to
reasonable travel requirements on behalf of the Company.

                  2. TERM OF EMPLOYMENT. The employment period of Executive by
the Company shall commence on or before September 7, 1999 and end on December
31, 2002 (the "Initial Term") unless further extended or sooner terminated as
hereinafter provided. Executive may terminate her employment during the Initial
Term with sixty (60) days written notice to the Company. Commencing on December
31, 2002, and each December 31 thereafter, the term of Executive's employment
shall automatically be extended for one additional year to, respectively,
December 31, 2003, and each December 31 thereafter, unless, not later than sixty
(60) days prior to the end of any renewal term, either party hereunder shall
have given notice to the other party that it does not wish to extend this
Agreement. If the Company gives Executive notice that it does not wish to extend
this Agreement during the Initial Term or any renewal term, Executive shall be
entitled to the severance payments provided in Section 4(d) hereof. As used
herein the


                                        1
<PAGE>   2
"Employment Period" shall refer to the Initial Term and any renewal term of
Executive's employment with the Company.

                  3. BASE SALARY AND BENEFITS.

                  (a) During the Employment Period, Executive's base salary
shall be $175,000 per annum (the "Base Salary"). The Base Salary shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the compensation
policies and practices of the Company; however, in no case shall Executive's
salary be reduced below $175,000 per annum. The Base Salary shall be payable in
regular installments in accordance with the Company's general payroll practices
and shall be subject to customary withholding.

                  (b) The Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable
expenses incurred by her in the course of performing her duties under this
Agreement which are consistent with the Company's policies in effect from time
to time with respect to travel, entertainment and other business expenses. The
parties agree that such expenses shall include, by way of example and not
limitation, cellular telephone service and home fax machine and telephone line.

                  (c) Executive shall be entitled to participate, on a basis
comparable to other key executives of the Company, in any benefit plan,
incentive compensation plan, or program of the Company for which key executives
are or shall become eligible, including, without limitation, pension, 401(k),
life and disability insurance and stock benefits and/or plans.

                  (d) In addition to the Base Salary, Executive shall be
eligible to receive an annual cash bonus in a target amount equal to 50% of her
then current Base Salary. Such bonus shall be provided on such terms and in such
amounts, if any, as the Company may deem appropriate in its sole discretion. For
1999, such bonus, if any, shall be prorated to reflect the amount of time
actually worked in such calendar year.

                  (e) Executive will receive options to purchase 60,000 ordinary
shares represented by ADSs and evidenced by ADRs of Warner Chilcott Public
Limited Company. Twelve thousand of said options shall be immediately
exercisable after Executive's first day of employment, with the remaining 48,000
of such shares vesting quarterly over four years. Other terms of the stock
options shall be as set forth in the Warner Chilcott Incentive Share Option
Program (the "Plan"). Executive may also be awarded, from time to time,
additional compensation (such as warrants, stock options, stock appreciation
rights, performance shares, restricted stock or unrestricted stock) pursuant to
the Plan or any additional or replacement incentive compensation program
established for the key employees of the Company. Any awards under such programs
shall be at such levels or in such amounts as the Board of Directors deems, in
its sole discretion, appropriate for the position occupied by Executive and her
performance therein. Executive will be considered for an additional grant under
the Plan beginning in Spring 2000.

                  (f) Within thirty days after execution of this Agreement, the
Company shall pay Executive a signing bonus in the amount of $25,000.



                                       2
<PAGE>   3
                  (g) Executive shall be entitled to vacation time with
compensation of 20 days per annum. Executive shall also be entitled to all paid
holidays given by the Company to its key officers.

                  (h) There shall be no material reduction or diminution of the
benefits provided in this Section 3, (i) unless Executive shall have given her
prior written consent to such reduction or diminution and an equitable
arrangement (embodied in an ongoing substitute or alternative benefit or plan)
has been made with respect to such benefit or plan or (ii) except, in the case
of Section 3(c), for across the board benefit reductions similarly affecting all
senior management personnel of the Company.

                  4. TERMINATION AND CHANGE OF CONTROL

                  (a) If the Executive shall die during the Employment Period,
this Agreement shall terminate effective as of the date of Executive's death.

                  (b) At the sole discretion of the Board of Directors,
Executive may be terminated if the Executive is disabled (as defined below) and
shall have been absent from her duties with the Company on a full time basis for
one hundred and eighty (180) consecutive days, and, within thirty (30) days
after written notice by the Company to do so, the Executive shall not have
returned to the performance of her duties hereunder on a full time basis. As
used herein, the term "disabled" shall (i) mean that Executive is unable, as a
result of a medically determinable physical or mental impairment, to perform the
duties and services of her position, or (ii) have the meaning specified in any
disability insurance policy maintained by the Company, whichever is more
favorable to the Executive.

                  (c) The Company may, by notice to Executive, terminate
Executive's employment hereunder for cause. As used herein, "cause" shall mean
(i) the conviction of Executive of a felony or conviction of a misdemeanor if
such misdemeanor involves moral turpitude; or (ii) Executive's voluntary
engagement in conduct constituting larceny, embezzlement, conversion or any
other act involving the misappropriation of Company funds in the course of her
employment; or (iii) the willful refusal to carry out specific directions of her
supervisor and/or the Board of Directors, which directions shall be consistent
with the provisions hereof; or (iv) Executive's committing any act of gross
negligence or intentional misconduct in the performance or non-performance of
her duties as an employee of the Company; or (v) any material breach by the
Executive of any material provision of this Agreement (other than for reasons
related only to the business performance of the Company or business results
achieved by Executive). For purposes of this Section 4(c), no act or failure to
act on Executive's part shall be considered to be reason for termination for
cause if done, or omitted to be done, by Executive in good faith and with the
reasonable belief that the action or omission was in the best interests of the
Company. Upon the termination of Executive's employment for cause, the Company
shall pay to Executive (x) her Base Salary accrued through the effective date


                                        3
<PAGE>   4
of termination, payable at the time such payment is otherwise due and payable
hereunder, and (y) all other amounts and benefits to which Executive is
entitled, including, without limitation, vacation pay and expense reimbursement
amounts accrued to the effective date of termination and amounts and benefits
owing under the terms of any benefit plan of the Company in which Executive
participates.

                  (d) Executive's employment may be terminated at any time by
the Company without cause; provided, however, that in such event Executive shall
be entitled to receive (so long as she executes and delivers the Company's
standard form of release) an amount equal to Executive's then current Base
Salary for a period of eighteen months plus all other amounts and benefits to
which Executive is entitled, including without limitation, expense reimbursement
amounts accrued to the effective date of termination and amounts and benefits
owing under the terms of any benefit plan of the Company in which Executive
participates. The foregoing amounts shall be payable in one lump sum payment
within ten (10) days after Executive's last day of active employment. In
addition, Executive shall be entitled to continue participation in the Company's
health and other welfare benefit plans, at the Company's expense, for a period
of up to eighteen months or until Executive is covered by a successor employer's
benefit plans, whichever is sooner.


                  (e) If a "Change in Control" of the Company (as defined in
Section 4(f) below) occurs, all stock options, restricted stock, deferred
compensation and similar benefits which have not yet become vested on the date
of a Change in Control will become vested upon such event, and Executive shall
be permitted to exercise all such rights whether or not Executive remains
employed with the Company or terminates her employment in accordance with this
subsection (e). If a Change in Control event involves a tender offer for all or
part of the Company's shares, the vesting date for stock options and restricted
stock pursuant to this subsection (e) shall be a date which permits Executive to
participate in such tender offer with such stock options or restricted shares.
In addition, if a Change in Control occurs, Executive may, after such Change in
Control, terminate her employment with the Company for any reason after the
expiry of sixty (60) days immediately following the effective date of such
Change in Control, in which event Executive shall be entitled to the payments
specified in Section 4(d) above.

                  (f) For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change in Control" of
the Company shall be deemed to have occurred if: (i) any person (as such term is
used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934)
becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of Company securities
representing 30% or more of the capital stock of the Company; or (ii)
individuals who constitute the Company's Board of Directors as of the date of
this Agreement (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at
least a majority thereof, provided, however, that any person becoming a director
subsequent to the date of this Agreement whose election, or nomination for
election by the Company's stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least 51%
of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board (either by a specific vote or by
approval of the proxy statement of the Company in which such person is named as
a nominee for director, without objection to such nomination) shall be, for the
purpose of this clause (ii), considered as though such


                                       4
<PAGE>   5
person were a member of the Incumbent Board; or (iii) the Company's shareholders
approve a merger or consolidation (where in either case the Company is not the
survivor thereof) in which shareholders of the Company cease to own at least 51%
of the surviving entity's voting power, or a sale or disposition of all or
substantially all of the Company's assets or a plan of partial or complete
liquidation of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a "Change in Control"
shall not include events whereby any of Elan Corporation plc, Dominion Income
Management Corp., Halisol S.A., AIG Global Investment Corp., Goldman Sachs &
Co., Paribas Sante SA, Perrigo Company or Warner-Lambert Company becomes the
beneficial owner of Company securities representing 30% or more of the capital
stock of the Company.

                  (g) Executive's employment may be terminated by the Executive,

                  (A) For Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good
                      Reason" shall mean: (x) the assignment to Executive of any
                      duties inconsistent in any respect with Executive's
                      position (including status, offices, and titles),
                      authority, duties or responsibilities as contemplated by
                      Section 1(a) hereof, or any other action by the Company
                      which results in a diminution in such position, authority,
                      duties or responsibilities, excluding for this purpose an
                      isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken
                      in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly
                      after receipt of notice thereof given by Executive; (y)
                      any failure by the Company to comply with any of the
                      provisions of Section 3 hereof, other than an isolated,
                      insubstantial and inadvertent failure not occurring in bad
                      faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly after
                      receipt of notice thereof given by Executive; (z) the
                      Company's requiring Executive to be based at any office or
                      location other than as provided in Section 1(c) hereof;
                      (xx) any purported termination by the Company of
                      Executive's employment otherwise than as expressly
                      permitted by this Agreement; or (yy) any failure by the
                      Company to obtain an express assumption of this Agreement
                      by a successor as required pursuant to Section 15 hereof.
                      Upon any termination pursuant to this subsection (g)(A),
                      Executive shall be entitled to the payment specified in
                      Section 4(d).

                  (B) By resignation or retirement. If Executive resigns or
                      retires, this Agreement shall terminate as of the
                      effective date of Executive's retirement or resignation
                      and thereupon Executive shall be entitled solely to the
                      payments and benefits set forth in Sections 4(c) and (l)
                      hereof.

                  (h) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment or
distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive (whether paid or
payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement
or otherwise, but determined without regard to any additional payments required
under this subsection (h)) (a "Payment") would be subject to the excise tax
imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"), or any interest or penalties are


                                       5
<PAGE>   6
incurred by Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together
with any such interest and penalties are hereinafter collectively referred to as
the "Excise Tax"), the Company shall pay to Executive at the time specified in
subparagraph (k) below an additional amount (a "Gross-Up Payment") such that the
net amount of the Gross-Up Payment retained by Executive, after deduction of all
federal, state and local income tax (and any interest and penalties imposed with
respect thereto), employment tax and Excise Tax on the Gross-Up Payment, shall
be equal to the amount of the Excise Tax imposed on such Payment.

                  (i) For purposes of the foregoing subparagraph (h), the proper
amounts, if any, of the Excise Tax and the Gross-Up Payment shall be determined
in the first instance by the Company. Such determination by the Company shall be
communicated in writing by the Company to Executive at least fourteen (14) days
prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control. Within ten (10) days of being
provided with written notice of any such determination, Executive may provide
written notice to the Chairperson of the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors of the Company of any disagreement, in which event the amounts, if
any, of the Excise Tax and the Gross-Up Payment shall be determined by tax
counsel mutually selected by the Company and Executive. The determination of the
Company (or in the event of disagreement, the tax counsel selected) shall be
final and nonreviewable.

                  (j) For purposes of determining whether any of the Payments
will be subject to the Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax under
subparagraph (h), the following principles will be applicable:

                  (A) Any payments or benefits received or to be received by
                      Executive in connection with a termination of employment
                      shall be treated as "parachute payments" within the
                      meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, and all "excess
                      parachute payments" within the meaning of Section
                      280G(b)(1) of the Code shall be treated as subject to the
                      Excise Tax unless in the opinion of tax counsel mutually
                      selected by the parties pursuant to subsection (i) above,
                      such other payments or benefits (in whole or in part) do
                      not constitute parachute payments, or such excess
                      parachute payments (in whole or in part) represents
                      reasonable compensation for services actually rendered
                      within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4) of the Code in
                      excess of the base amount within the meaning of Section
                      280G(b)(3) of the Code; and

                  (B) The value of any non-cash benefits or any deferred payment
                      or benefit shall be determined in accordance with Section
                      280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code. For purposes of
                      determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, Executive
                      shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest
                      marginal rate of tax in the calendar year in which the
                      Gross-Up Payment is to be made and state and local income
                      taxes at the highest marginal rate of tax in the state and
                      locality of Executive's residence on the date of
                      termination, net of the maximum reduction


                                       6
<PAGE>   7
                      in federal income taxes which could be obtained from
                      deduction of such state and local taxes.

                  (k) The Payments provided for in subparagraph (h) shall be
made in a cash, lump-sum payment, net of any required tax withholdings, upon the
later of (i) the fifth business day following the effective date of termination,
or (ii) the calculation of the amount of the Gross-Up Payment under subparagraph
(i). Any Payment required hereunder that is not made in a timely manner shall
bear interest at a rate equal to the prime rate quoted on the date the payment
is first overdue by Citibank N.A., New York, New York plus two percent until
paid.

                  (l) Amounts which are vested benefits or which Executive is
otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, policy, practice or program of or
in any contract or agreement with the Company or any of its affiliated companies
at or subsequent to the date of termination of Executive's employment for any
reason shall be payable in accordance with such plan, policy, practice or
program or contract or agreement except as explicitly modified by this
Agreement.



                  5. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

                  (a) Executive acknowledges and agrees that the information,
observations and data obtained by her while employed by the Company and its
subsidiaries concerning the business or affairs of the Company or any other
subsidiary ("Confidential Information") are the property of the Company or such
subsidiary. Therefore, Executive agrees to keep secret and retain in the
strictest confidence all Confidential Information, including without limitation,
trade "know-how" secrets, customer lists, pricing policies, operational methods,
technical processes, formulae, inventions and research projects and other
business affairs of the Company, learned by her prior to or after the date of
this Agreement, and not to disclose them to anyone outside the Company, either
during or after her employment with the Company, except (i) in the course of
performing her duties hereunder; (ii) with the Company's express written
consent; (iii) to the extent that the Confidential Information becomes generally
known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of
Executive's acts or omissions; or (iv) where required to be disclosed by court
order, subpoena or other government process. If Executive shall be required to
make disclosure pursuant to the provisions of clause (iv) of the preceding
sentence, Executive promptly, but in no event more than 48 hours after learning
of such subpoena, court order or other governmental process, shall notify the
Company, by personal delivery or fax (pursuant to Section 10 hereof), and, at
the Company's expense, shall take all reasonably necessary steps requested by
the Company to defend against the enforcement of such subpoena, court order or
other governmental process and permit the Company to intervene and participate
with counsel of its own choice in any related proceeding.

                  (b) Executive shall deliver to the Company at the termination
of her employment, or at any other time the Company may request, all memoranda,
notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes, printouts and software and other
documents and data (and copies thereof) relating


                                       7
<PAGE>   8
to the Confidential Information, Work Product (as defined below) or the business
of the Company or any subsidiary which she may then possess or have under his
control.

                  6. INVENTIONS AND PATENTS. Executive acknowledges that all
inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses,
drawings, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not
patentable) which relate to the Company's or any of its subsidiaries' actual or
anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or
services and which are conceived, developed or made by Executive while employed
by the Company or its predecessor and its subsidiaries ("Work Product") belong
to the Company or such subsidiary. Executive shall promptly disclose such Work
Product to the Board and perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board
(whether during or after her employment) to establish and confirm such ownership
(including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney and
other instruments).

                  7. INDEMNIFICATION. The Company will indemnify Executive and
her legal representatives, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the
State of New Jersey and the existing by-laws of the Company or any other
applicable laws or the provisions of any other corporate document of the
Company, and Executive shall be entitled to the protection of any insurance
policies the Company may elect to obtain generally for the benefit of its
directors and officers, against all costs, charges and expenses whatsoever
incurred or sustained by her or her legal representatives in connection with any
action, suit or proceeding to which she or her legal representatives may be made
a party by reason of her being or having been a director or officer of the
Company or of any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or actions taken purportedly
on behalf of the Company or of any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. The
Company shall advance to Executive the amount of her expenses incurred in
connection with any proceeding relating to such service or function to the
fullest extent legally permissible under New Jersey law. The indemnification and
expense reimbursement obligations of the Company in this Section 7 will continue
as to Executive after she ceases to be an officer of the Company and shall inure
to the benefit of her heirs, executors and administrators. The Company shall
not, without Executive's written consent, cause or permit any amendment of the
Company's governing documents which would affect Executive's rights to
indemnification and expense reimbursement thereunder.

                  8. NON-COMPETE, NON-SOLICITATION. Subject to Section 1(b)
hereof, Executive covenants and agrees that, during the Employment Period and
for a period of six months thereafter;

                  (a) Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, as an
                  employee, director, officer, shareholder, partner, advisor,
                  consultant or otherwise, engage in any commercial activity or
                  participate in any venture of any kind that directly competes
                  with the Company with respect to the development, marketing,
                  testing, manufacture or delivery of substantially similar
                  pharmaceutical products within the United States. Nothing
                  herein shall prohibit Executive from holding less than 5% of

employer or otherwise. The Company's obligations to make the payments to
Executive required under this Agreement, and otherwise to perform its
obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim,
recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action that the Company may have
against Executive.


                  21. TAX WITHHOLDING. The parties agree to treat all amounts
