NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals and other adjustments) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included.

     The Company changed its fiscal year end from June 30 to the 52 or 53-week
period that ends on the Saturday closest to June 30, effective for fiscal year
1999. After the transition year of fiscal year 1999, the Company's quarters will
each be comprised of 13 weeks and end on a Saturday, except in certain years
when the Company will have one quarter comprised of 14 weeks. During fiscal year
1999, the first quarter included the period from July 1 through October 3, 1998.
The second through fourth quarters were comprised of 13 weeks ending on January
2, April 3, and July 3, 1999, respectively.

     Operating results for the quarter and year-to-date ended April 1, 2000 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ending July 1, 2000. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the
year ended July 3, 1999. See Note D regarding the inclusion of personal care
operations for the periods presented.

     For the first half of fiscal year 1999 the Company treated the Mexican
economy as highly inflationary. Accordingly, the translation impacts were
reported as a component of income and losses during these periods. Subsequent to
January 2, 1999, the Mexican economy was not considered highly inflationary.
Accordingly, the translation impacts are included as a component of
comprehensive income.

NOTE C - LONG-TERM BORROWING AND CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS

     In connection with the sale of the personal care business, the Company paid
off its obligation of $1,440 to the Industrial Development Board of Rutherford
County, Tennessee in the first quarter of fiscal year 2000.

NOTE D - RESTRUCTURING COSTS

     The personal care business was sold in August 1999. Proceeds from the sale
were $32,200 including funds held in escrow, and are subject to post-closing
adjustment. No gain or loss was recorded for this sale in fiscal year 2000.
Fiscal year 2000 reflects one month of the personal care business. Net sales for
the personal care business were zero and $50,536 for the third quarter of fiscal
year 2000 and 1999, respectively. Net sales for the personal care business were
$17,778 and $143,620 for year-to-date fiscal year 2000 and 1999, respectively.
The Company does not maintain operating income information by its main product
lines; however, based on the incremental approach, the Company estimates that
the pre-tax operating income was zero and $5,000 for the third quarter of fiscal
year 2000 and 1999, respectively. Estimated pre-tax operating income was $1,000
and $2,000 for the year-to-date fiscal year 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Included in pre-tax operating income is the effect of suspending personal care
depreciation of zero and $1,500 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2000 and
1999, respectively. The effect of suspending personal care depreciation was $700
and $4,700 for year-to-date fiscal year 2000 and 1999, respectively.

     For year-to-date fiscal year 2000, $1,807 was paid primarily related to
professional fees and transitional costs associated with the sale of the
personal care business. These costs were charged against a reserve established
in fiscal year 1998. The 1998 restructuring reserve balance was $363 and $2,170
at April 1, 2000 and July 3, 1999, respectively.

     Assets held for sale decreased to $19,430 at April 1, 2000 primarily due to
the sale of the personal care business and the change in the underlying assets
during the first three quarters of fiscal year 2000. Assets held for sale at
April 1, 2000 is comprised of the LaVergne, Tennessee logistics facility. While
the Company continues to operate the LaVergne, Tennessee logistics facility, the
Company has the ability to remove the facility from its operations with no
effect on continuing operations. The buyer of the personal care business is
operating out of this facility under a two-year lease agreement. The Company
intends to sell this facility and has been



                                      -8-
<PAGE>   9


actively seeking a buyer since the close of fiscal year 1998. As a part of the
1998 restructuring, in fiscal year 1998 the Company wrote the assets down to
their estimated fair value less cost to sell and included the net assets in the
assets held for sale classification on the balance sheet. The effect of
suspending depreciation on this facility was $210 and $240 for the third quarter
of fiscal year 2000 and 1999, respectively. The effect of suspending
depreciation on this facility was $640 and $600 for year-to-date fiscal year
2000 and fiscal year 1999, respectively.

     For year-to-date fiscal year 2000, $2,045 was paid primarily for severance
and outplacement costs related to the 1999 restructuring. These costs were
charged against a reserve established in fiscal year 1999. The 1999
restructuring reserve balance was $410 and $2,455 at April 1, 2000 and July 3,
1999, respectively.

NOTE E - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     In July 1994 the Company was served a "summons with notice" alleging breach
of fiduciary duties by its officers in connection with their purchase of the
Company from the former owner in April 1988. In February 1995 a complaint was
filed seeking unspecified damages. In June 1998 the United States District Court
for the Western District of Michigan dismissed, at the close of the plaintiff's
case, the action filed by the former owner. In July 1998 the former owner filed
an appeal. In March 2000 the Company entered into a settlement agreement with
the former owner that resulted in the dismissal of the lawsuit and the
withdrawal of all pending appeals thus ending any further action against the
Company. No payment or financial compensation was required of either party. The
effect of the settlement was to leave in place the Court's original order
dismissing the plaintiff's case.

     In August 1999 the Company filed a civil antitrust lawsuit in the U.S.
District Court for the Western District of Michigan against a group of vitamin
raw material suppliers alleging the defendants conspired to fix the prices of
vitamin raw materials sold to the Company. The relief sought includes money
damages and a permanent injunction enjoining defendants from future violations
of antitrust laws. In March 2000 the Company entered into a settlement agreement
with one minor defendant providing for a payment to the Company of an immaterial
amount.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
          THIRD QUARTER AND YEAR-TO-DATE FOR FISCAL YEARS 2000 AND 1999

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THIRD QUARTER OF FISCAL YEARS 2000 AND 1999
- -------------------------------------------

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The Company's net sales decreased by $69,932 or 27.8% to $181,494 during
the third quarter of fiscal year 2000, from $251,426 during the third quarter of
fiscal year 1999. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of the personal
care business. Excluding the effect of the personal care business, net sales
decreased by $19,396 or 9.7% during the third quarter of fiscal year 2000 to
$181,494 from $200,890 during the third quarter of fiscal year 1999. Higher
sales in the third quarter of fiscal year 1999 resulted primarily from the
shipment of a backlog of orders due to the implementation of a new software
system in the first quarter of fiscal year 1999 as well as the timing of the
cough/cold/flu season. The decrease in the third quarter of fiscal year 2000 was
partially offset by sales to existing customers of new products such as the
nicotine transdermal system patch for smoking cessation, an OTC pharmaceutical
product.

     Gross profit decreased $21,067 during the third quarter of fiscal year 2000
compared to the same period of fiscal year 1999. The gross profit percent to net
sales was 20.3% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2000 compared to 23.0% for
the same period of fiscal year 1999. Excluding the personal care business, gross
profit decreased $9,452 during the third quarter of fiscal year 2000 compared to
the same period of fiscal year 1999 and gross profit percent to net sales
decreased to 20.3% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2000 compared to 23.0%
for the same period of fiscal year 1999. Gross margin for the third quarter of
fiscal year 2000 was negatively impacted by higher than anticipated inventory
obsolescence expense of approximately $7,000 related to inventory built in
anticipation of the Company's conversion to a new software system in fiscal year
1999. The Company believes the valuation of its inventory adequately covers
obsolescence related to inventory on hand at April 1, 2000. Gross margin was
also negatively impacted by lower than normal production levels as the Company
reduced inventory. Approximately $4,000 of production costs were under-absorbed
due to the low production levels and were expensed during the quarter. Gross
margin for the third quarter of fiscal year 1999 was negatively impacted by
outsourcing costs incurred to meet customer service requirements and high
obsolescence expense.

     Operating expenses decreased $13,703 or 33.8% during the third quarter of
fiscal year 2000 compared to the same period in fiscal year 1999. Operating
expenses as a percentage of net sales were 14.8% for the third quarter of fiscal
year 2000 compared to 16.1% for the same period of fiscal year 1999. Operating
expenses consist of distribution, research and development, selling and
administrative and unusual litigation expenses. Distribution expenses decreased
$5,571 or 57.7% from the third quarter of fiscal year 1999 primarily due to the
sale of the personal care business. Distribution expenses were also favorably
impacted in the third quarter of fiscal year 2000 by fewer expedited shipments
and lower warehousing costs as the Company benefited from its shift from leased
warehouses to its owned warehouse in Allegan, Michigan.



                                      -10-
<PAGE>   11


Research and development expenses were 1.5% of net sales for the third quarter
of fiscal year 2000 compared to 1.4% for the same period of fiscal year 1999.
Selling and administrative expenses decreased $5,452 or 21.5% from the third
quarter of fiscal year 1999 primarily due to the sale of the personal care
business. Selling and administrative expense as a percentage of net sales was
11.0% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2000 compared to 10.1% of net sales
for the same period in fiscal year 1999. Unusual litigation costs were zero and
$1,954 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2000 and 1999, respectively.

     Interest and other, net decreased $2,991 from the third quarter of fiscal
year 1999. Interest expense decreased $1,520 to $1,676 during the third quarter
of fiscal year 2000 compared to $3,196 for the same period in fiscal year 1999
due primarily to lower levels of borrowing. Other income was $1,666 for the
third quarter of fiscal year 2000 compared to other income of $195 for the same
period in fiscal year 1999. The increase in other income was primarily due to
the gain of $1,300 on the sale of an investment classified as
available-for-sale.

     The effective tax rate was 36.1% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2000
compared to 32.3% for the same period in fiscal year 1999.


YEAR-TO-DATE FOR FISCAL YEARS 2000 AND 1999
- -------------------------------------------

RESTRUCTURING UPDATE

     The personal care business was sold in August 1999. Proceeds from the sale
were $32,200 including funds held in escrow, and are subject to post-closing
adjustment. No gain or loss was recorded for this sale in fiscal year 2000.
Fiscal year 2000 reflects one month of the personal care business. Net sales for
the personal care business were zero and $50,536 for the third quarter of fiscal
year 2000 and 1999, respectively. Net sales for the personal care business were
$17,778 and $143,620 for year-to-date fiscal year 2000 and 1999, respectively.
The Company does not maintain operating income information by its main product
lines; however, based on the incremental approach, the Company estimates that
the pre-tax operating income was zero and $5,000 for the third quarter of fiscal
year 2000 and 1999, respectively. Estimated pre-tax operating income was $1,000
and $2,000 for the year-to-date fiscal year 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Included in pre-tax operating income is the effect of suspending personal care
depreciation of zero and $1,500 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2000 and
1999, respectively. The effect of suspending personal care depreciation was $700
and $4,700 for year-to-date fiscal year 2000 and 1999, respectively.

     For year-to-date fiscal year 2000, $1,807 was paid primarily related to
professional fees and transitional costs associated with the sale of the
personal care business. These costs were charged against a reserve established
in fiscal year 1998. The 1998 restructuring reserve balance was $363 and $2,170
at April 1, 2000 and July 3, 1999, respectively.

     Assets held for sale decreased to $19,430 at April 1, 2000 primarily due to
the sale of the personal care business and the change in the underlying assets
during the first three quarters of fiscal year 2000. Assets held for sale at
April 1, 2000 is comprised of the LaVergne, Tennessee logistics facility. While
the Company continues to operate the LaVergne, Tennessee logistics facility, the
Company has the ability to remove the facility from its operations with no
effect on continuing operations. The buyer of the personal care business is
operating out of this facility



                                      -11-
<PAGE>   12


under a two-year lease agreement. The Company intends to sell this facility and
has been actively seeking a buyer since the close of fiscal year 1998. As a part
of the 1998 restructuring, in fiscal year 1998 the Company wrote the assets down
to their estimated fair value less cost to sell and included the net assets in
the assets held for sale classification on the balance sheet. The effect of
suspending depreciation on this facility was $210 and $240 for the third quarter
of fiscal year 2000 and 1999, respectively. The effect of suspending
depreciation on this facility was $640 and $600 for year-to-date fiscal year
2000 and fiscal year 1999, respectively.

     For year-to-date fiscal year 2000, $2,045 was paid primarily for severance
and outplacement costs related to the 1999 restructuring. These costs were
charged against a reserve established in fiscal year 1999. The 1999
restructuring reserve balance was $410 and $2,455 at April 1, 2000 and July 3,
1999, respectively.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The Company's net sales decreased $101,740 or 14.7% to $588,105 for
year-to-date fiscal year 2000, from $689,845 for year-to-date fiscal year 1999.
The decrease was primarily due to the sale of the personal care business.
Excluding the effect of personal care, net sales increased $24,102 or 4.4% to
$570,327 for year-to-date fiscal year 2000 compared to $546,225 for the same
period of fiscal year 1999. The increase was primarily due to an increase in
sales to existing customers of new products such as the nicotine transdermal
system patch for smoking cessation, an OTC pharmaceutical product, an increase
in sales of existing vitamin products to existing customers as well as an
increase in international sales, partially offset by a decrease in sales of
analgesic products.

     During the first quarter of fiscal year 1999, the Company wrote off
inventory of $1,663, accounts and notes receivable of $10,874 and the balance of
its Russian investment of $1,640 for a total of $14,177 due to the collapse of
the Russian economy. The inventory amount is included in cost of sales; the
accounts and notes receivable amount is included in selling and administrative
expense; and the investment amount is included in other income and expense. The
discussion below related to gross profit, operating expenses and interest and
other, net excludes the effect of these charges.

     Gross profit decreased $10,364 or 7.1% for year-to-date fiscal year 2000
compared to the same period of fiscal year 1999. The gross profit percentage for
year-to-date fiscal year 2000 was 23.0% compared to 21.1% for the same period of
fiscal year 1999. Excluding the effect of the personal care business, the gross
profit percent to net sales was 23.3% and 23.0% for fiscal years 2000 and 1999,
respectively. Fiscal year 2000 was negatively impacted by higher than
anticipated inventory obsolescence expense related to inventory built in
anticipation of the Company's conversion to a new software system in fiscal year
1999. The Company believes the valuation of its inventory adequately covers
obsolescence related to inventory on hand at April 1, 2000. Gross margin was
negatively impacted by lower than normal production levels as we reduced
inventory resulting in under-absorbed production costs that were expensed during
the year. Increased costs to comply with FDA regulations also negatively
impacted gross margin. Fiscal year 1999 was negatively impacted by
inefficiencies resulting from the Company's conversion to a new software system
and outsourcing costs incurred to meet customer service demand.

     Operating expenses decreased $31,887 for year-to-date fiscal year 2000
compared to the same period of fiscal year 1999. Operating expenses, as a
percentage of net sales, were 15.1% for year-to-date fiscal year 2000 compared
to 17.5% for the same period of fiscal year 1999. Operating expenses consist of
distribution, research and development, selling and administrative and unusual
litigation expenses. Distribution expenses decreased $13,752 or 52.1% for the
year-to-date fiscal year 2000 due primarily to the sale of the personal care
business. Distribution expenses were also favorably impacted by fewer expedited
shipments and lower warehousing costs as the Company benefits from its shift
from a leased warehouse to its owned warehouse in Allegan, Michigan.
Distribution expense, as a percentage of net sales, was 2.1% for year-to-date
fiscal year 2000 compared to 3.8% for the same period of fiscal year 1999.
Research and development expense, as a percentage of net sales, was 1.7% for
year-to-date fiscal year 2000 compared to 1.6% for the same period of fiscal
year 1999. Selling and administrative expense decreased $13,717 or 17.3% for
year-to-date fiscal year 2000, primarily due to the sale of the personal care
business and lower salaries and wages resulting from the workforce reduction
plan announced in fiscal year 1999. Selling and administrative expense was 11.2%
of net sales for year-to-date fiscal year 2000 compared to 11.5% of net sales
for the same period fiscal year 1999. Unusual litigation costs were zero and
$3,628 for year-to-date fiscal year 2000 and 1999, respectively.

     Interest and other, net decreased $2,877 for year-to-date fiscal year 2000.
Interest expense decreased $1,678 to $6,491 for year-to-date fiscal year 2000
compared to $8,169 for the year-to-date fiscal year 1999 primarily due to lower
levels of borrowing. Other income was $1,970 for year-to-date fiscal year 2000
compared to other income of $771 for the same period of fiscal year 1999. The
increase in other income was primarily due to the gain of $1,300 on the sale of
an investment classified as available-for-sale.

     The effective tax rate was 35.3% for year-to-date fiscal year 2000 compared
to 36.8% for the same period of fiscal year 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     For year-to-date fiscal year 2000, working capital decreased $66,149 and
cash flow from operating activities was $86,074. Accounts receivable increased
$7,220. Inventories decreased $58,290 primarily due to inventory reduction
initiatives. Current and deferred income taxes decreased $14,359 primarily due
to the recognition of timing differences related to the sale of personal care
and the write-off of the Russian investment. Accounts payable decreased $21,400,
primarily due to lower production levels and inventory reduction initiatives.

     Capital expenditures were $10,634 for year-to-date fiscal year 2000.
Capital expenditures for fiscal year 2000 are anticipated to be approximately
$15,000 to $20,000 primarily for normal equipment replacement and productivity
enhancements to equipment.

     The personal care business was sold during the first quarter of fiscal year
2000. The proceeds received from the sale during the first quarter were $31,186
and were used to fund operations and reduce debt as noted below.



                                      -13-
<PAGE>   14



     Long-term debt decreased $108,126 for year-to-date fiscal year 2000 as the
Company paid down on its $200,000 unsecured revolving credit facility. At April
1, 2000 the Company had $173,100 available on this facility.

YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE

     As of the date of this filing, the Company has not incurred any significant
business interruptions as a result of Y2K issues. Costs to address Y2K issues
have approximated $1,000. No key suppliers or customers have reported any issues
related to year 2000 that might cause an adverse affect on business operations.

     Though the Company is unaware of any Y2K issues, the Company cannot make

                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into as of April 19, 2000, by and between
Perrigo Company (the "Company") and David T. Gibbons (the "Executive");

                                WITNESSETH THAT:

     WHEREAS, the Company and Executive desire to enter into this Agreement
pertaining to the employment of the Executive by the Company;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set
forth below and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is
hereby acknowledged, the Executive and the Company hereby agree as follows:

     1. Performance of Services. The Executive's employment with the Company
shall be subject to the following:

(a)  Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees to employ
     the Executive as its President and Chief Executive Officer during the
     Agreement Term (as defined below) and the Executive hereby agrees to remain
     in the employ of the Company during the Agreement Term. The Executive shall
     be appointed as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the
     "Board") at the first regularly-scheduled Board meeting coincident with or
     next following the Executive's commencement of employment with the Company,
     and during the Agreement Term, while the Executive is employed by the
     Company, the Board shall use its best efforts to cause the Executive to
     continue as a member of such Board.

(b)  During the Agreement Term, while the Executive is employed by the Company,
     the Executive shall devote his full time (reasonable sick leave and
     vacations excepted) and best efforts, energies and talents to serving as
     its President and Chief Executive Officer.

(c)  The Executive agrees that he shall perform his duties faithfully and
     efficiently subject to the direction of the Board. The Executive's duties
     shall include providing services for both the Company and its Affiliates
     (as defined below), as determined by the Board (as used herein, Company
     shall mean and include the Company and all of its Affiliates); provided,
     that the Executive shall not, without his consent, be assigned tasks that
     would be inconsistent with those of President and Chief Executive Officer.
     The Executive will have such authority, power, responsibilities and duties
     as are inherent to his position (and the undertakings applicable to his
     position) and necessary to carry out his responsibilities and the duties
     required of him hereunder.

(d)  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph 1, during the
     Agreement Term the Executive may devote reasonable time to activities other
     than those required under this Agreement, including activities involving
     professional, charitable, educational,


<PAGE>   2


     religious and similar types of organizations, speaking engagements,
     membership on the boards of directors of other profit or not-for-profit
     organizations, and similar activities, to the extent that such other
     activities do not, in the judgment of the Board, inhibit or prohibit the
     performance of the Executive's duties under this Agreement or conflict in
     any material way with the Company's business.

(e)  Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Executive shall not be required
     to perform services under this Agreement during any period that he is
     Disabled (as defined in paragraph 3(b)).

(f)  The "Agreement Term" shall be the period beginning on May 1, 2000 and
     ending on June 30, 2005. Thereafter, the Agreement shall automatically be
     extended for additional 12-month periods, unless either party to this
     Agreement provides notice of non-renewal to the other party at least 90
     days before the last day of the Agreement Term. The term "Agreement Term"
     shall also include any renewal period under the foregoing provisions of
     this paragraph 1(f).

(g)  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement
     and commencement of the Executive's employment hereunder shall be
     contingent on the background investigative report ordered by the Company
     being received and approved by the Chairman of the Compensation Committee
     of the Board (the "Compensation Committee"). The General Counsel of the
     Company shall notify the Executive in writing when the Chairman has
     approved such report.

(h)  For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Affiliate" shall mean any
     corporation, partnership, joint venture or other entity in which at least a
     fifty percent interest in such entity is owned, directly or indirectly, by
     the Company (or a successor to the Company).

     2. Compensation and Benefits. Subject to the terms of this Agreement,
during the Agreement Term while the Executive is employed by the Company, the
Company shall compensate him for his services as follows:

(a)  Base Salary. The Executive shall receive for the 14-month period beginning
     on May 1, 2000 base salary at an annual rate of $440,000, payable in
     substantially equal monthly or more frequent installments (the "Salary").
     For the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2001 and thereafter, the Executive's
     Salary shall be reviewed by the Board no less frequently than annually to
     determine whether an increase in the amount of Salary is appropriate.

(b)  Annual Bonus. The Executive shall be eligible to participate in the
     Management Incentive Bonus Plan (the "MIB") administered by the
     Compensation Committee, or any successor annual bonus plan or arrangement
     generally made available to the executive officers of the Company. The MIB
     shall provide the Executive with a target bonus opportunity of not less
     than 100% of annual Salary for each fiscal year of the Company (July 1 to
     June 30); provided, that the Executive shall be guaranteed a minimum bonus
     under the MIB for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2000 and June 30, 2001
     of $36,667



                                       2
<PAGE>   3


     and $220,000, respectively. Any bonus payable under this paragraph 2(b)
     shall be paid in accordance with the terms of the MIB.

     (c) Transition Bonus. The Executive shall receive a transition bonus
payable in accordance with the following:

     (i)   Restricted Stock Award. On a date to be determined by the
           Compensation Committee but in no event later than June 30, 2000, the
           Executive shall be awarded shares of common stock of the Company
           subject to the restrictions described below ("Restricted Stock"), the
           number of shares of which shall be determined by dividing $240,000 by
           the fair market value of a share of common stock on such date. "Fair
           market value" shall mean the average of the highest and lowest price
           at which the common stock is traded on such award date, as reported
           on the NASDAQ National Market. Such Restricted Stock award shall be
           subject to the terms and conditions of the restricted stock agreement
           set forth in Exhibit A. Except as otherwise specifically provided in
           this Agreement or the restricted stock agreement, such shares of
           Restricted Stock shall be forfeited if the Executive's Date of
           Termination occurs prior to the end of the Restricted Period. The
           "Restricted Period" shall end with respect to all of the shares
           awarded under this paragraph 2(c)(i) on June 30, 2003.

     (ii)  Cash Award. The Executive shall be entitled to a lump sum cash
           payment of $160,000, which shall be paid as soon as practicable
           following the Executive's commencement of employment.

(d)  Contingent Restricted Stock Award. On a date to be determined by the
     Compensation Committee but in no event later than June 30, 2000, the
     Executive shall also be awarded 50,000 shares of Restricted Stock (referred
     to as "Contingent Restricted Stock"). Such Contingent Restricted Stock
     award shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the restricted stock
     award agreement set forth in Exhibit B. Except as otherwise specifically
     provided in this Agreement or the restricted stock agreement, the shares of
     Contingent Restricted Stock shall be permanently forfeited if the
     Executive's Date of Termination occurs prior to June 30, 2001 (the
     "Contingent Vesting Date"). If the Executive is employed by the Company on
     the Contingent Vesting Date, the Company shall review the number of shares
     of Common Stock that the Executive has purchased in open market
     transactions and shall contingently vest the Executive in one share of the
     Contingent Restricted Stock for each two shares of Company common stock so
     purchased by the Executive and held by him on the Contingent Vesting Date.
     Any shares of Contingent Restricted Stock that are not contingently vested
     on the Contingent Vesting Date in accordance with foregoing provisions of
     this paragraph 2(c)(ii) shall be permanently forfeited on such date. Except
     as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or the restricted
     stock agreement, (A) the Contingent Restricted Stock still held after June
     30, 2001, if any, shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable on June 30,
     2003, and (B) the Contingent Restricted Stock shall be permanently
     forfeited if the Executive's Date of Termination occurs prior to such date.



                                       3

(e)  Stock Options. The Executive shall be granted an option to purchase 750,000
     shares of common stock of the Company ("Common Stock") under the Perrigo
     Company Employee Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "Option Plan") as of a
     date to be determined by the Compensation Committee but in no event later
     than June 30, 2000 (the "Grant Date"). The shares subject to such option
     shall have an exercise price equal to the fair market value (as defined in
     the Option Plan) of a share of Common Stock on the Grant Date and shall
     become exercisable with respect to 187,500 of the shares granted on each of
     the second, third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the Grant Date. Such
     option shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the option agreement
     set forth in Exhibit C. The Option Plan as in effect on the date of this
     Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit D.

     The Executive shall also be eligible for annual stock option grants under
     the Option Plan in amounts determined by the Compensation Committee;
     provided, however, for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2001 and June 30,
     2002, each such annual option grant shall not be less than 125,000 shares.
     Such annual option grants shall vest with respect to 25% of the shares
     awarded on each of the second through fifth anniversaries of the grant
     date; provided, however, if the Executive remains employed until the end of
     the Agreement Term, all unvested outstanding options shall become fully
     vested. Such options shall be nonqualified stock options and, except as
     specifically provided in this Agreement, such annual option awards shall be
     subject to the terms and conditions of the Option Plan and the applicable
     provisions of the option agreement attached to this Agreement as Exhibit C.

(f)  Temporary Housing and Moving Expenses. Through August 31, 2000 or, if
     earlier, the date the Executive relocates his primary residence to
     Michigan, the Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement for temporary
     housing expenses, air travel and other out-of-pocket travel expenses in
     connection with commuting from his residence in the Santa Barbara,
     California area to his temporary residence in western Michigan, including
     reimbursement of expenses relating to family travel for purposes of
     locating permanent housing in Michigan. Expenses related to the Executive's
     relocation of his primary residence to Michigan shall be fully reimbursed,
     subject to the terms of the Company's relocation policy for executives. The
     Company's relocation policy is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit E. All
     reimbursements under this paragraph 2(f) shall be subject to the
     Executive's presenting supporting documentation of such expenses as may be
     reasonably required by the Company.

(g)  Other Benefits. The Executive shall be eligible to participate in any and
     all plans maintained by the Company from time to time to provide benefits
     for its senior executives, and for its salaried employees generally,
     including, without limitation, any pension, profit sharing or other
     retirement plan, any life, accident, medical, hospital or similar group
     insurance program and any other fringe benefit plan, subject to the normal
     terms and conditions of such plans.

(h)  Perquisites. The Executive shall be entitled to the perquisites
     historically provided by the Company to its Chief Executive Officer,
     excluding country club dues and car allowance.



                                       4
<PAGE>   5


(i)  Deferred Compensation. The Company agrees that it will cooperate with the
     Executive in the establishment of a deferred compensation plan with terms
     that are mutually agreeable to both parties to defer until a future date
     payment of such portion of the Executive's annual compensation as he may
     elect to defer.

     3. Termination. The Executive's employment with the Company during the
Agreement Term may be terminated under the following circumstances.

(a)  Death. The Executive's employment hereunder shall terminate upon his death.

(b)  Disability. If the Executive becomes Disabled, the Company may terminate
     his employment with the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, the
     Executive shall be deemed to be "Disabled" if (i) he is eligible for
     disability benefits under the Company's long term disability plan, or (ii)
     he has a physical or mental disability which renders him incapable, after
     reasonable accommodation, of performing substantially all of his duties
     hereunder for a period of 180 days (which need not be consecutive) in any
     12-month period. In the event of a dispute as to whether the Executive is
     Disabled, the Company may, at its expense, refer him to a licensed
     practicing physician of the Company's choice and the Executive agrees to
     submit to such tests and examination as such physician shall deem
     appropriate. The determination of such physician shall be final and binding
     on the Company and Executive.

(c)  Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive's employment hereunder
     immediately and at any time for Cause by written notice to the Executive
     detailing the basis for the Cause termination. For purposes of this
     Agreement, "Cause" means in the reasonable judgment of the Board (i) gross
     negligence or willful and continued failure by the Executive to
     substantially perform his duties as an employee of the Company (other than
     any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental
     illness), (ii) willful misconduct by the Executive which is demonstrably
     and materially injurious to the Company, monetarily or otherwise, (iii) the
     engaging by the Executive in egregious misconduct involving serious moral
     turpitude to the extent that his creditability and reputation no longer
     conforms to the standard of senior executives of the Company, or (iv) the
     commission by the Executive of a material act of dishonesty or breach of
     trust resulting or intending to result in personal benefit or enrichment to
     the Executive at the expense of the Company. For purposes of this
     provision, no act or failure to act shall be deemed "willful" unless done
     or omitted to be done not in good faith and without reasonable belief that
     such action or omission was in the best interest of the Company.

(d)  Good Reason. The Executive may terminate his employment hereunder for Good
     Reason, provided that he gives the Company notice of such Good Reason
     within a reasonable period (but, except as provided below, in no event more
     than 30 days) after he has knowledge of the events giving rise to the Good
     Reason and the Company fails to correct such events within a reasonable
     period (but in no event more than 30 days) after receiving such notice from
     the Executive. "Good Reason" means, without the Executive's consent, (i)
     assigning duties to the Executive that are inconsistent in any substantial
     respect with the position, authority, or responsibilities associated with
     the



                                       5
<PAGE>   6


     office of President and Chief Executive Officer, (ii) the failure by the
     Company to pay the Executive any portion of his current compensation within
     ten (10) business days of the date such compensation is due, (iii) the
     failure by the Company to continue any incentive compensation plan in which
     the Executive participates which is material to his compensation, unless an
     equitable substitute plan or alternative plan is made available to the
     Executive; and (iv) the failure by the Company to obtain a satisfactory
     agreement from any successor to the business of the Company to assume and
     agree to perform this Agreement. In the case of clause (iv) next above,
     notice of termination for Good Reason shall be given, if at all, within 30
     days following the occurrence of the event giving rise to the right to
     terminate for Good Reason.

(e)  Termination by Executive. The Executive may terminate his employment
     hereunder at any time for any reason by giving the Company prior written
     notice not less than 30 days prior to such termination. Any termination
     pursuant to this paragraph 3(e) shall preclude a later claim that such
     termination was for Good Reason.

(f)  Mutual Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated at any time by mutual
     written agreement of the parties.

(g)  Termination by the Company without Cause. The Company may terminate the
     Executive's employment hereunder at any time for any reason by giving the
     Executive written notice of such termination; provided, however,
     termination by the Company shall be deemed to have occurred under this
     paragraph 3(g) only if such termination by the Company is not pursuant to
     paragraph 3(b), 3(c) or 3(f).

(h)  Date of Termination. "Date of Termination" means the last day that the
     Executive is employed by the Company under the terms of this Agreement,
     provided that his employment is terminated in accordance with one of the
     foregoing provisions of this paragraph 3.

     4. Rights Upon Termination. The Executive's right to payments and benefits
under this Agreement for periods after his Date of Termination shall be
determined in accordance with the following provisions of this paragraph 4:

(a)  If the Executive's Date of Termination occurs during the Agreement Term for
     any reason, the Company shall pay to the Executive:

     (i)   The Executive's Salary for the period ending on the Date of
           Termination.

     (ii)  Payment for unused vacation days, as determined in accordance with
           Company policy as in effect from time to time.

     (iii) Any other payments or benefits to be provided to the Executive by the
           Company pursuant to any employee benefit plans or arrangements
           adopted by the Company, to the extent such payments and benefits are
           earned and vested as of the Date of



                                       6
<PAGE>   7


           Termination, or are required by law to be offered for periods
           following the Executive's Date of Termination.

     The amounts payable under clauses (i) and (ii) above shall be paid in a
     lump sum as soon as practicable following such Date of Termination. Any
     amounts payable under clause (iii) above shall be paid in accordance with
     the terms of the applicable plan or arrangement.

(b)  Notwithstanding the terms of the MIB plan, if the Executive's Date of
     Termination occurs under paragraph 3(a) (relating to death) or paragraph
     3(b) (relating to being Disabled), then in addition to the amounts payable
     in accordance with paragraph 4(a), the Executive will be entitled to:

     (i)   a pro rata bonus payment for the year in which such Date of
           Termination occurs, which shall be an amount equal to the product of:

           (A)  the bonus the Executive would have received for the fiscal year
                which includes his Date of Termination if he had remained
                employed by the Company until the end of such year,

                Multiplied by

           (B)  a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the
                fiscal year preceding the Executive's Date of Termination and
                the denominator of which is 365.

           Such pro rata bonus shall be payable in a lump sum payment on the
           next installment date on which bonus payments are made to
           participants in the MIB plan following the end of the fiscal year to
           which such bonus relates.

     (ii)  Vesting in outstanding stock options and restricted stock in
           accordance with the applicable agreement.

(c)  If the Executive's Date of Termination occurs under paragraph 3(d)
     (relating to termination by the Executive for Good Reason) or paragraph
     3(g) (relating to non-Cause termination by the Company), then in addition
     to the amounts payable under paragraph 4(a), the Executive shall be
     entitled to:

     (i)   An amount equal to 12 months of Salary, at the rate in effect as of
           his Date of Termination.

     (ii)  A pro rata bonus payment for the year in which the Date of
           Termination occurs, determined using the method described in
           paragraph 4(b).

     (iii) Vesting in outstanding stock options and restricted stock in
           accordance with the applicable agreement.



                                       7
<PAGE>   8
     The amount payable under clause (i) above shall be paid in a lump sum cash
     payment as soon as practicable following the Executive's Date of
     Termination, but in no event later than 30 days thereafter.

(d)  In the event of a Change in Control of the Company (within the meaning of
     the Option Plan), all outstanding options held by the Executive shall
     become immediately vested and exercisable pursuant to the terms of the
     Option Plan and the restrictions on restricted stock awards shall lapse
     pursuant to the applicable restricted stock agreement.

(e)  Exercise of the Executive's options for periods following the Executive's
     Date of Termination shall be determined in accordance with the applicable
     option agreement.

(f)  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the
     event that the Executive's Date of Termination occurs for the reasons set
     forth in paragraph 3(c) (relating to termination for Cause), or the Board
     reasonably determines that the Executive has violated the terms of the
     Noncompetition and Nondisclosure Agreement described in paragraph 6, all
     outstanding options (vested and unvested), Restricted Stock and Contingent
     Restricted Stock held by the Executive shall be immediately forfeited and
     all payments and benefits under this Agreement, except those described in
     paragraph 4(a), shall cease and be permanently forfeited.

     Employment Agreement.

2.   Vesting. Except as provided in paragraph 3 below, the Restricted Stock
     awarded hereunder shall be permanently forfeited if the Executive's Date of

3.   Accelerated Vesting. Notwithstanding paragraph 2 above, if the Executive's

           the purpose or with the intention of distributing the shares, except
           for a sale to a purchaser who makes the same representation in
           writing, and that the holder of the shares of Restricted Stock,
           either before or after the end of the Restricted Period, will not

           Securities Act of 1933 or any other applicable law.

5.   Adjustment to Shares. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split,

                   NONCOMPETITION AND NONDISCLOSURE AGREEMENT


      THIS NONCOMPETITION AND NONDISCLOSURE AGREEMENT ("Agreement") entered into
on ________________, 2000 by and between PERRIGO COMPANY, a Michigan
corporation, for and in behalf of itself and each of its subsidiary and
affiliated companies (collectively referred to as "Perrigo" or the "company"),
and David T. Gibbons (referred to as "Employee").

      WITNESSETH:

      WHEREAS Perrigo's special competence in its various fields of endeavor is
the secret of its growth, and provides the source of both career opportunities
and security for employees throughout the company. Such growth depends to a
significant degree on Perrigo's confidential, proprietary information. This is
information that is not generally known to others and includes more and better
information than our competitors have about research, development, production,
marketing and management in the manufacture, preparation, handling, treatment,
storage, sale, distribution, shipment and use of products for the Store and
Value Brand Product (as herein defined) ("Company Business"). To obtain such
information and use it successfully, Perrigo spends considerable sums of money
in product development, the development of marketing methods, training its
employees, and service to its customers; and

      WHEREAS Employee is a key employee of Perrigo. In connection with
providing such employment services, Employee has obtained or will obtain access
to sensitive information regarding the Company's Business and its customers. The
parties agree that improper disclosure or use of that information will cause
serious and irreparable harm to the company; and

      WHEREAS Perrigo has established the Perrigo Company Employee Incentive
Stock Option Plan (the "Incentive Stock Option Plan") as an incentive to certain
key employees of Perrigo to remain in the employ of the company and to encourage
stock ownership in the company; and

      WHEREAS on the date hereof Perrigo has issued to Employee under the
Incentive Stock Option Plan an option to purchase a specified number of shares
of the Common Stock of Perrigo on the condition that Employee enter into this
Agreement.

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration for the issuance of stock pursuant to the
Incentive Stock Option Plan and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt of which is acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:


                                       2
<PAGE>   18

      1. Restriction on Competing Activities During Term of Employment. During
the term of Employee's employment with Perrigo, Employee will not, directly or
indirectly, alone or as a partner, officer, director, owner, employee, or
consultant of any business or other entity, be engaged in any business or other
enterprise that competes, directly or indirectly, with the Company Business
without the express written consent of the Board of Directors of Perrigo.

      2. Restriction on Post-Employment Activities. If Employee's employment
with Perrigo is terminated, either voluntarily by him or by Perrigo, within a
period of five (5) years from the date of this Agreement, then, for a period of
two (2) years thereafter, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, alone or
as a partner, director, officer, owner, employee or consultant of any business
or other entity, compete in any way with the Company Business. In addition to
its plain meaning and understanding, "compete in any way with the Company
Business" shall also specifically include engaging in any way in the production,
distribution or sale of any products to the Store and Value Brand Products that
are similar to or competitive with those now or hereafter produced, distributed
or sold by Perrigo. As used in this Agreement, "Store and Value Brand Products"
means those products that are supplied by a manufacturer or marketer through
channels of distribution (including but not limited to, wholesalers,
distributors and retailers) that bear either (i) a label or brand name that is
used exclusively by the wholesaler, distributor or retailer, or (ii) a label or
brand name that is not regularly advertised by national broadcast, print, direct
mail or other media for the purpose of establishing brand name recognition of
the manufacturer, marketer and/or distributor with the general public.

      Employee also agrees that during this two-year period, he will not,
directly or indirectly, either for himself or any other person, solicit or
induce, or attempt to solicit or induce, any individual who is an employee,
independent contractor, supplier, or customer of Perrigo to terminate his, her,
or its business relationship with the company or in any way interfere with or
disrupt the company's relationship with any of its employees, independent
contractors, suppliers, or customers.

      3. Nondisclosure. Employee will not during or at any time after the
termination of employment with Perrigo use, divulge, or convey to others any
secret or confidential information, knowledge or data of Perrigo or that of
third parties obtained by Employee during the period of employment with Perrigo.
Such secret or confidential information, knowledge or data includes, but is not
limited to, secret or confidential matters:

            (a) of a technical nature such as, but not limited to, methods,
      know-how, formulas, compositions, processes, discoveries, machines,
      inventions, computer programs and similar items or research projects,


                                       3
<PAGE>   19

            (b) of a business nature such as, but not limited to, information
      about costs, purchasing, profits, marketing, sales or lists of customers,
      and

            (c) pertaining to future developments such as, but not limited to,
      research and development or future marketing or merchandising.

      4. Return of Company Property. Upon termination of employment with
Perrigo, or at any other time at Perrigo's request, Employee agrees:

            (a) To deliver promptly to Perrigo all manuals, letters, notes,
      papers, books, reports, sketches, computer data or disks, files and
      programs, price lists, customer files, memoranda, contracts and
      agreements, business and marketing plans, product formulations,
      manufacturing processes, procedures and methods (including equipment
      specifications and drawings), vendor lists, vendor files, customer lists,
      stored or recorded documents, and all other materials and copies thereof
      relating in any way to the Company's Business and in any way obtained by
      Employee during the period of employment with Perrigo which are in
      Employee's possession or under his control. Employee further agrees that
      he will not make or retain any copies of any of the foregoing and will so
      represent to Perrigo upon termination of employment.

            (b) To confirm to Perrigo that all of Perrigo's computer records,
      files and programs have first been turned over to Perrigo and then deleted
      or erased from all computer equipment owned, leased or used by Employee.

            (c) To return to Perrigo all personal property provided for
      Employee's use during his employment with Perrigo including, but not
      limited to, automobiles, computers and related equipment, telephones,
      credit cards, security cards and identifications, keys and tools.

      5. Remedies. Employee acknowledges and agrees that monetary damages for
his breach of any provision of this Agreement would be an inadequate remedy and
that the company would not have an adequate remedy at law for such breach.
Accordingly, Employee agrees that, in addition to all other rights and remedies
available to the company to enforce its rights pursuant to this Agreement, the
company shall, without the necessity of proving irreparable harm or of posting a
bond, be entitled to such equitable relief from any court with proper
jurisdiction, including, but not limited to, an injunction, a temporary
restraining order, or an order for specific performance, as may be necessary to
enforce or prevent a violation (whether anticipatory, continuing, or future) of
any provision of this Agreement. If Employee breaches

any provision of this Agreement, he shall pay all expenses, including court
costs and actual attorney fees, incurred by the company in enforcing such
provision.

      6. Enforceability. The unenforceability of any provision or portion of any
provision of this Agreement shall not affect the enforceability of the remaining
provisions or the remainder of any provision of this Agreement. If at any time a
court determines that any restrictive covenant contained in this Agreement is
unreasonable, the parties agree that the maximum restriction permitted by law
shall be substituted for the stated restriction and that such substitution shall
govern this Agreement as if originally part of this Agreement.

      7. Binding Effect. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of
Perrigo hereunder shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon Perrigo and
its successors and assigns.

      8. Entire Agreement Modifications. This Agreement contains the entire
agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes
all other agreements, whether oral or written, between the parties regarding
such subject matter. This Agreement may be modified or terminated only through a
written instrument signed by each of the parties.

      9. Waiver. The waiver by either party of the enforcement or the breach of
any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a
subsequent or continuing waiver of the enforcement or the breach of any
provision. The failure by either party to insist upon strict compliance of any
provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision. No
waiver shall be valid unless in writing and signed by the party giving the
waiver.

      10. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be enforced, governed, and
construed by the laws of the state of Michigan, regardless of the fact that
either of the parties may be or becomes a resident of another state.

      The parties have executed this Agreement as of the date first appearing
above.
