(1) 895,000 Shares are held by the CF Villture Fund (the "CF Villture Fund"), a
unit trust governed by English law, which is controlled by Barrie Stevens
Haigh and Stella Dorothy Haigh by virtue of their holding more than 75% of
the total issued units. If Barrie Stevens Haigh and Stella Dorothy Haigh
caused the dissolution of the CF Villture Fund, Barrie Stevens Haigh would
be deemed to beneficially own 750,570 Shares because upon dissolution he
would receive 569,666 Shares directly and 180,904 Shares as trustee (along
with Stella Dorothy Haigh and Alexandra R.A. Miller) of the Barrie Haigh
Children's Settlement No. 1 and Barrie Haigh Children's Settlement No. 2.,
respectively. In addition, in transactions expected to close on October 22,
1998 and October 23, 1998, the CF Villture Fund will dispose of 245,000
Shares, causing the number of Shares deemed to be beneficially owned by
Barrie Steven Haigh (as described in the previous sentence) to decline by
205,463 Shares. For the purposes of these calculations the Shares received
by Barrie Stevens Haigh as trustee are also deemed to be beneficially owned
by Stella Dorothy Haigh as a result of both persons serving as trustees of
the Barrie Haigh Children's Settlement No.1 and the Barrie Haigh Children's
Settlement No. 2., respectively.
(2) In addition, as stated in footnote 1 the CF Villture will dispose of
245,000 Shares in transactions expected to close on October 22, 1998 and
October 23, 1998, causing the number of Shares deemed to be beneficially
owned by Barrie Stevens Haigh to decline by 205,463 Shares and the
percentage of the total outstanding Shares beneficially owned by him to
decline to 6.2%.

Stella Dorothy Haigh (together the "Reporting Persons"), with respect to the
common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Shares"), of Quintiles Transnational
