--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     1.  ORGANIZATION

         Xanthus  Fund,  L.L.C.  (the  "Company")  was  organized  as a  limited
         liability  company  under the laws of  Delaware  in January  1999.  The
         Company is  registered  under the  Investment  Company act of 1940 (the
         "Act") as a closed-end,  non-diversified management investment company.
         The  Company's  term is  perpetual  unless  the  Company  is  otherwise
         terminated under the terms of the Limited Liability  Agreement dated as
         of February 10, 1999. The Company's  investment objective is to achieve
         maximum  capital  appreciation  . It pursues this objective by actively
         investing in a portfolio  consisting  primarily of equity securities of
         technology  companies and of companies  which derive a major portion of
         their revenue  directly or  indirectly  from  technological  events and
         advances.  The Company's portfolio of securities in the technology area
         is expected to include  long and short  positions  primarily  in equity
         securities of U.S. and non-U.S.  companies.  Equity securities  include
         common  and  preferred  stock  and  other   securities   having  equity
         characteristics,  including convertible debt securities, stock options,
         warrants and rights.

         Responsibility  for  the  overall  management  and  supervision  of the
         operations of the Company is vested in the individuals who serve as the
         Board of Managers of the Company (the "Board of  Managers").  There are
         four  members  of  the  "Board  of  Managers"  and an  "Adviser".  CIBC
         Oppenheimer  Advisors,  L.L.C.  (the  "Adviser"),  a  Delaware  limited
         liability Company,  serves as the investment adviser to the Company and
         is responsible for the Company's  investment  activities pursuant to an
         investment  advisory  agreement.  CIBC World Markets Corp.  ("CIBC WM")
         (formerly  CIBC   Oppenheimer   Corp.)  is  the  managing   member  and
         controlling person of the Adviser.

         The  acceptance of initial and additional  contributions  is subject to
         approval  by the Board of  Managers.  The Company may from time to time
         offer to repurchase  interests  pursuant to written tenders by Members.
         Such repurchases will be made at such times and on such terms as may be
         determined  by the Board of Managers,  in their  complete and exclusive
         discretion. The Adviser expects that generally it will recommend to the
         Board of Managers that the Company offer to repurchase  interests  from
         Members  twice each  year,  effective  at the end of the second  fiscal
         quarter and again at the end of the year.

     2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         The  preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally
         accepted  accounting  principles requires the Adviser to make estimates
         and  assumptions  that  affect the amounts  reported  in the  financial
         statements  and  accompanying  notes.  The  Adviser  believes  that the
         estimates utilized in preparing the Company's financial  statements are
         reasonable and prudent; however, actual results could differ from these
         estimates.

    2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

         a.   PORTFOLIO VALUATION (CONTINUED)

         Securities  transactions,  including related revenue and expenses,  are
         recorded  on a  trade-date  basis  and  dividends  are  recorded  on an
         ex-dividend  date  basis.  Interest  income is  recorded on the accrual
         basis.

         Domestic  exchange  traded or NASDAQ listed equity  securities  will be
         valued at their last composite sale prices as reported on the exchanges
         where such  securities are traded.  If no sales of such  securities are
         reported on a particular  day, the securities will be valued based upon
         their composite bid prices for securities held long, or their composite
         asked prices for securities  held short, as reported by such exchanges.
         Securities  traded on a foreign  securities  exchange will be valued at
         their  last sale  prices on the  exchange  where  such  securities  are
         primarily  traded, or in the absence of a reported sale on a particular
         day, at their bid prices (in the case of securities held long) or asked
         prices  (in the case of  securities  sold  short) as  reported  by such
         exchange.  Listed  options will be valued at their bid prices (or asked
         prices in the case of listed  options  held  short) as  reported by the
         exchange with the highest  volume on the last day a trade was reported.
         Other securities for which market quotations are readily available will
         be  valued  at  their  bid  prices  (or  asked  prices  in the  case of
         securities  sold short) as  obtained  from one or more  dealers  making
         markets  for those  securities.  If market  quotations  are not readily
         available,  securities and other assets will be valued at fair value as
         determined in good faith by, or under the  supervision of, the Board of
         Managers.

         Debt securities (other than convertible debt securities) will be valued
         in accordance with the procedures  described above,  which with respect
         to such  securities  may include the use of  valuations  furnished by a
         pricing  service  which  employs a matrix to  determine  valuation  for
         normal  institutional  size trading  units.  The Board of Managers will
         periodically  monitor the reasonableness of valuations  provided by any
         such pricing service.  Debt securities with remaining  maturities of 60
         days or less will, absent unusual circumstances, be valued at amortized
         cost, so long as such  valuation is determined by the Board of Managers
         to represent fair value.

         All assets and liabilities  initially  expressed in foreign  currencies
         will be  converted  into U.S.  dollars  using  foreign  exchange  rates
         provided by a pricing  service  compiled as of 4:00 p.m.  London  time.
         Trading in foreign securities generally is completed, and the values of
         such  securities  are  determined,  prior to the  close  of  securities
         markets in the U.S. Foreign exchange rates are also determined prior to
         such close.  On occasion,  the values of such  securities  and exchange
         rates may be affected by events occurring  between the time such values
         or exchange  rates are determined and the time that the net asset value
         of the Company is determined.  When such events  materially  affect the
         values of  securities  held by the  Company  or its  liabilities,  such
         securities and  liabilities  will be valued at fair value as determined
         in good faith by, or under the supervision of, the Board of Managers.

     2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

         b.   INCOME TAXES

         No provision for the payment of Federal, state or local income taxes on
         the  profits  of  the  Partnership   will  be  made.  The  Members  are
         individually  liable  for  the  income  taxes  on  their  share  of the
         Company's income.

     3.  ADMINISTRATION FEE, RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND OTHER

         CIBC  WM  provides  certain  administrative  services  to  the  Company
         including, among other things, providing office space and other support
         services to the  Company.  In exchange for such  services,  the Company
         pays  CIBC  WM a  monthly  administration  fee  of  .08333%  (1%  on an
         annualized  basis) of the  Company's  net assets  determined  as of the
         beginning of the month.

         The Adviser of the Company will serve as the Special Advisory Member of
         the Company. In such capacity,  the Adviser will be entitled to receive
         an incentive  allocation (the "Incentive  Allocation"),  charged to the
         capital  account of each  Member as of the last day of each  allocation
         period,  of 20% of the amount by which net profits,  if any, exceed the
         positive balance in the Member's "loss recovery account." The Incentive
         Allocation  will be  credited to the  Special  Advisory  Account of the
         Adviser.

         Each  Member  of  the  Board  of  Managers  ("Managers")  who is not an
         "interested  person" of the company, as defined by the act, receives an
         annual  retainer  of  $5,000  plus a fee  for  each  meeting  attended.
         Currently,  no Manager is an  "interested  person" of the Company.  All
         Managers are reimbursed by the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket
         expenses  incurred by them in performing  their duties.  For the period
         ended June 30, 2000, fees (including meeting fees and a pro-rata annual
         retainer) and expenses paid to the Managers totaled $24,900.

         The Chase  Manhattan  Bank served as Custodian of the Company's  assets
         for the six months ended June 30, 2000.

         PFPC Inc.  serves as  Investor  Services  and  Accounting  Agent to the
         Company,   and  in   that   capacity   provides   certain   accounting,
         recordkeeping, tax and investor related services.


     4.  SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS

         Aggregate  purchases  and  sales of  investment  securities,  excluding
         short-term securities,  for the period ended June 30, 2000, amounted to
         $681,600,140 and $567,816,409, respectively.

     4.  SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)

         At June 30,  2000,  the cost of  investments  for  Federal  income  tax
         purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting
         purposes. At June 30, 2000, accumulated net unrealized  appreciation on
         investments was $64,999,670  consisting of $93,820,555 gross unrealized
         appreciation and $28,820,885 gross unrealized depreciation.

         Due from broker  represents  receivables  and payables  from  unsettled
         security trades and proceeds from securities sold, not yet purchased.

     5.  SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS

         The Company has the ability to trade on margin and, in that connection,
         borrow funds from brokers and banks for investment purposes. Trading in
         equity  securities  on margin  involves  an  initial  cash  requirement
         representing  at least  50% of the  underlying  security's  value  with
         respect to transactions in U.S.  markets and varying  percentages  with
         respect  to  transactions  in foreign  markets.  The Act  requires  the
         Company  to  satisfy  an  asset  coverage  requirement  of  300% of its
         indebtedness,  including  amounts  borrowed,  measured  at the time the
         Company  incurs  the   indebtedness.   The  Company  pays  interest  on
         outstanding  margin  borrowings  at an  annualized  rate of LIBOR  plus
         .875%.  The Company  pledges  securities as  collateral  for the margin
         borrowings,  which are  maintained in a segregated  account held by the
         Custodian.  As of June 30, 2000, the Company had no outstanding  margin
         borrowings.  For the period  ended June 30,  2000,  the  average  daily
         amount of such borrowings was $37,906,502.

     6.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK OR
         CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

         In the  normal  course of  business,  the  Company  may  trade  various
         financial instruments and enter into various investment activities with
         off-balance  sheet risk.  These financial  instruments  include forward
         contracts,  options and securities sold, not yet purchased.  Generally,
         these financial instruments represent future commitments to purchase or
         sell other financial  instruments at specific terms at specified future
         dates. Each of these financial  instruments contains varying degrees of
         off-balance  sheet risk  whereby  changes  in the  market  value of the
         securities underlying the financial instruments may be in excess of the
         amounts recognized in the statement of assets, liabilities and members'
         capital.

         The Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times may
         exceed  federally  insured limits.  The Company has not experienced any
         losses in such  accounts  and does not  believe  it is  exposed  to any
         significant credit risk on cash.

     6.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK OR
         CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED)

         Securities sold, not yet purchased represent obligations of the Company
         to deliver  specified  securities  and thereby  creates a liability  to
         purchase  such   securities   in  the  market  at  prevailing   prices.
         Accordingly, these transactions result in off-balance sheet risk as the
         Company's  ultimate  obligation to satisfy the sale of securities sold,
         not yet purchased  may exceed the amount  indicated in the statement of
         assets, liabilities and members' capital.

         The risk  associated with purchasing an option is that the Company pays
         a premium  whether or not the option is  exercised.  Additionally,  the
         Company  bears the risk of loss of premium  and change in market  value
         should the  counterparty  not perform under the contract.  Put and call
         options  purchased  are  accounted for in the same manner as investment
         securities.

         Transactions in purchased options were as follows:
