                        ALKERMES CLINICAL PARTNERS, L.P.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                          -----------------------------

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION
    ---------------------
     
The financial statements for Alkermes Clinical Partners, L.P. (the
"Partnership") for the three month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, are
unaudited and include all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are
necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the periods then
ended. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Partnership's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996, which includes financial
statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and
1994.

The results of the Partnership's operations for any interim period are not
necessarily indicative of the results of the Partnership's operations for any
other interim period or for a full year.

2.  NET LOSS PER CLASS A AND B LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTEREST
    -------------------------------------------------------

Net loss per Class A and B limited partnership interest is calculated with the
net loss attributable only to the limited partners of the partnership (each, a
"Limited Partner" and collectively, the "Limited Partners") and excludes the
loss attributable to the General Partner. There was no loss attributable to the
Limited Partners for the three months ended March 31, 1997.

In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS No.128"), "Earnings per Share,"
which the Partnership will adopt in the fourth quarter of 1997. The adoption of
SFAS No. 128 is not expected to have any impact on the Partnership's financial
statements because the Partnership does not have, nor is expected to have, any
common stock equivalents.

3.  ACCRUED EXPENSES
    ----------------

Included in accrued expenses at March 31, 1997 are amounts totaling
approximately $2,600 which are due to Alkermes, Inc.

4.  COMPLETION OF SCHEDULED FUNDING
    -------------------------------

During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership completed its
development funding to Alkermes and incurred expenses totaling $4,850,000 for
reimbursable costs incurred by Alkermes. Since the completion of funding to
Alkermes and because none of the Partners of the Partnership are obligated to
make any further capital contributions to the Partnership, Alkermes has used its
own resources, and intends to continue to use its own resources, to develop
RMP-7.

Alkermes is also obligated, through the General Partner, to perform
administrative services for the Partnership, such as preparing financial
statements, tax returns and reports to Partners. Alkermes intends to continue to
cause the General Partners to perform such services at its expense after the
Partnership's current assets are depleted, unless it exercises its Purchase
Option and thereby acquires all the interests in the Partnership. The services
performed by Alkermes and the General Partner constitutes all of the activities
undertaken by or on behalf of the Partnership.

After March 31, 1997, the Partnership is expected to have no significant assets,
liabilities or partners' capital and will have no future liquidity or capital
resources requirements other than those funded by Alkermes.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

              Revenues

The Partnership's sole source of revenue for the three months ended March 31,
1997 and 1996 was the interest earned on the investments made with the capital
contributions made by the General Partner and the limited partners of the
Partnership (the "Limited Partners") prior to their disbursement to Alkermes for
research and development and/or other Partnership expenses. Interest income for
the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $155 compared to $9,884 for the
corresponding period of the prior year. Interest income for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 as compared to 1996 decreased as a result of the decrease
in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The decrease in the
cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of the Partnership are a
result of the substantial completion of the payment of the development funding
to Alkermes which was completed during the quarter ended June 30, 1996.

              Expenses

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were
zero as compared to $3,400,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996. The
decrease in research and development expenses was a result of the completion of
the development funding to Alkermes pursuant to the product development
agreement between Alkermes and the Partnership (the "Product Development
Agreement").

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1997
were $2,056 as compared to $24,825 for the three months ended March 31, 1996.
The decrease was mainly a result of a decrease in amortization of organization
costs, accountant fees and the cost of reports to the Limited Partners.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 1997, the Partnership had current assets totaling $19,625,
consisting solely of cash; and current liabilities of $16,994.

The Partnership's primary source of funding and capital resources has been the
annual capital contributions by the Limited Partners and the General Partner.
The Limited Partners' capital contributions have been remitted to the
Partnership in four annual installment payments, the fourth and final payment of
which was due on April 15, 1995. During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the
Partnership received approximately $2,052,000 in cash as a result of the
purchase by Alkermes of previously defaulted Class A limited partnership units.
There have been and will be no additional capital contributions received by the
Partnership after the quarter ended June 30, 1996.

The Partnership has used its capital resources primarily to fund the further
development and clinical testing of RMPs. Such development is being conducted
for the Partnership by Alkermes pursuant to the Product Development Agreement.
The research and development funding to Alkermes ended during the quarter ended
June 30, 1996. Such funding was not sufficient for Alkermes to complete clinical
trials and seek regulatory approval of RMP-7. Because none of the Partners of
the Partnership is obligated to make any further capital contributions to the
Partnership, Alkermes has used its own resources, and intends to continue to use
its own resources to develop RMP-7. Alkermes is required to fund the development
of RMP-7 to maintain its Purchase Option with the Partnership.

The Partnership's remaining cash and cash equivalents will be used to pay for
administrative services for the Partnership. Alkermes is obligated, through the
General Partner, to perform administrative services for the Partnership, such as
preparing financial statements, tax returns and reports to the Limited Partners.
Alkermes intends to continue to cause the General Partner to perform such
services at its expense after the Partnership's current assets are depleted,
unless it exercises its Purchase Option and thereby acquires all limited
partnership interests in the Partnership. The activities performed by Alkermes
and the General Partner constitute all of the activities undertaken by or on
behalf of the Partnership.

After March 31, 1997, the Partnership is expected to have no significant assets,
liabilities or partners' capital and will have no future liquidity or capital
resources requirements other than those funded by Alkermes.
