          (a) Death or Disability.  Subject to any broader rights granted the
              -------------------

Employee or to her heirs or personal representatives the amount of compensation
and benefits accrued under Sections 3 and 4 hereof through the date of death or
(in case of disability) through the end of the one-month period commencing with
the onset of disability.  The Corporation shall thereafter have no further
liability under this Agreement to the Employee or her heirs or personal
representatives.  "Disability" for purposes hereof shall be deemed to have
occurred if the Employee because of injury or sickness is unable to perform each
of the material duties of her occupation.

          (b) Termination with Cause by the Corporation.  At any time during the
              -----------------------------------------
term hereof, the Corporation shall have the right to terminate for cause the
Employee's employment under this Agreement upon the occurrence of any of the
following events by the Employee:

               (i) willful or repeated violation of any of the provisions of
     this Agreement, which continues after written notice and ten (10) days in
     which to cure;

               (ii) dishonesty, fraud, embezzlement, defalcation, conviction of
     any felonious offense or persistent neglect of her material duties
     hereunder; or

               (iii)  intentionally imparting Confidential Information, as
     defined in Section 7, to competitors or

                                       7
<PAGE>

     to other third parties other than in the course of carrying out her
     corporate duties.

Such termination shall be effective immediately upon the delivery to the
Employee by the Corporation of written notice of such termination.  In the event
of a termination of the Employee's employment for cause in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 9(b), the Corporation shall pay to the Employee on
the date of termination all compensation and benefits accrued under Sections 3
and 4 of this Agreement to the date of such termination.  Thereafter, the
Corporation shall have no further obligation to the Employee.

          (c) Termination with Cause by the Employee.  At any time during the
              --------------------------------------
term hereof, the Employee shall have the right to terminate her employment
hereunder for cause upon the failure of the Corporation to comply with any of
the material terms of this Agreement.  Such termination shall be effective
immediately upon the delivery to the Corporation by the Employee of written
notice of such termination.  In the event of a termination of the Employee's
employment for cause in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9(c), the
Corporation shall pay to the Employee on the date of termination all
compensation and benefits accrued under Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement to
the date of such termination.  Thereafter, neither the Corporation nor the
Employee shall have any obligation to the other hereunder, except as accrued

                                       8
<PAGE>

     10.  No Termination Without Cause by the Corporation.  The Corporation
          -----------------------------------------------
shall not be entitled to terminate the Employee's employment during either the
initial or any renewal term hereof without cause.  The Corporation may, however,
with or without cause, suspend the performance of the Employee's duties
hereunder, such suspension to be effective immediately upon written notification
by the Corporation to the Employee.    In such event, the Employee shall
continue to be an employee of the Corporation through the conclusion of the
initial or renewal term during which suspension of duties occurs, and the
Employee shall be entitled during such initial or renewal term to receive all
compensation and benefits provided for herein, including any benefits related to
the vesting of options pursuant to any Stock Option Agreement to which the
Employee is a party.

     11.  Invocation of Non-Compete by Previous Employer.
          ----------------------------------------------
          (a)  The Employee and the Corporation acknowledge that, as of the date
hereof, both have reason to believe that the Employee's former employer,
Quintiles, Inc. (the "Former Employer"), will not elect to invoke the
non-compete provisions of Section 7(a) of one certain letter agreement dated
April 10, 1996 between the Former Employer and the Employee (the "Letter
Agreement").

          (b)  If, notwithstanding the parties' mutual understanding, the Former
Employer does elect to invoke such provision by making one (1) or more payments
to the Employee in the

                                       9
<PAGE>

amounts set forth in Section 7 of the Letter Agreement, then, at the option of
either party hereto, this Agreement shall immediately terminate and be of no
further force or effect whatsoever, except that the provisions of Sections 7(a),
8 and 11(c) hereof shall survive termination.  Moreover, if the Former Employer
and the Employee enter into any agreement pursuant to which the Employee
voluntarily agrees to be bound by contractual confidentiality, non-competition
or non-solicitation provisions that are different in any material respect from
those set forth in the draft agreement transmitted to the Former Employer by the
Employee on March 9, 1998 (a copy of which has been delivered to counsel for the
Corporation) and to which the Corporation has not expressly consented, then, at
the option of the Corporation, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no
further force or effect whatsoever, except that the provisions of Sections 7(a)
and 8 hereof shall survive such termination.

          (c)  In the event the Former Employer asserts any claim or brings any
proceedings (including but not limited to arbitration or court action) against
the Employee pursuant to the non-compete, non-solicitation and non-disclosure
provisions contained in the Letter Agreement, the Corporation agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the Employee from any such claims or proceedings,
including but not limited to any liability for such claims and any expenses,
including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with the defense of such
claims or proceedings.  Notwithstanding the

                                       10
<PAGE>

foregoing, the claims and proceedings indemnified against hereunder (i) include
only those claims or proceedings that are directly related to and arise out of
the employment of the Employee by the Corporation and (ii) exclude claims or
proceedings that arise out of the Employee's knowing or grossly negligent
violation of this Agreement or the Letter Agreement, as modified by any
subsequent agreement between the Employee and the Former Employer.  Moreover,
nothing in this Section 11(c) in any way limits the ability of the Corporation
to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11(b) above.

          (d)  Each of the Corporation and the Employee acknowledges that the
Employee is bound by the non-compete, non-solicitation and non-disclosure
provisions of the Letter Agreement.  The Employee agrees not to take any action
that would be prohibited under the Letter Agreement, as modified by any
subsequent agreement between the Employee and the Former Employer, and the
Corporation agrees not to cause or request the Employee to take any such action.

     12.  Notices.  Any notice required or permitted to be given under this
          -------
Agreement shall be sufficient if in writing and if delivered (including delivery
by private courier or facsimile transmittal) or sent by registered or certified
mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested to the Employee at 6809 Marbry's
Ridge Cove, Austin, Texas  78731, or to the Corporation at 1717 West Sixth

                                       11
<PAGE>

address as either party shall designate by written notice to the other.  Such
notice shall be effective as of the earlier of the date received or, if mailed
as described above, three days after the date of mailing.

     13.  Assignment.  This Agreement may not be assigned by either party hereto
          ----------
without the consent of the other party.  Subject to the foregoing, the rights
and obligations of the Corporation under this Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the
Corporation, and the rights of the Employee under this Agreement shall inure to
the benefit of the heirs and personal representatives of the Employee.

     14.  Miscellaneous.

no further force and effect.

          (d)  Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be
interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any party
hereto or under any circumstances, shall be invalid or unenforceable to any
extent under applicable law, such provision shall be deemed severed from this
Agreement with respect to such party or such circumstance, without invalidating
the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such provision to other
persons or circumstances, and a new provision shall be deemed to be substituted
in lieu of the provision so severed which new provision shall, to the extent
possible, accomplish the intent of the parties hereto as evidenced by the
provision so severed.

          (e)  In the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Employee of
any provision of this Agreement, then in addition to any other available remedy
to which the Corporation may be entitled, including the recovery of damages, the
Corporation shall be entitled to an injunction restraining the Employee from
breaching or attempting to breach, in whole or in part, any of the provisions of
this Agreement.  In addition, in the event of a breach by either party of any
provision of this Agreement, the non-breaching or (in the event of litigation)
the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party all
reasonable

                                       13
<PAGE>

costs and attorneys' fees incurred by the non-breaching or prevailing party in
seeking any of such remedies.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement to be
effective as of the date set forth above.
