NATURE OF PARTNERSHIP
TPI Land Development III Limited Partnership is a limited
partnership formed during 1986 under the laws of the State of
Arizona. The Partnership reached impound on May 27, 1986.
DURATION OF PARTNERSHIP
It has been the intention of the Partnership to acquire
property for investment appreciation purposes. The partnership
intends to sell a portion or all of the properties in the
future with a view towards liquidation of the Partnership. If
not terminated prior to December 31, 2001, the Partnership
shall cease to exist at that date.
OTHER ASSETS
Organizational costs represent costs incurred during the
formation period of the Partnership. Organizational costs
total $55,663.00. Organizational costs were amortized over 60
months, and are fully amortized. Syndication costs represent
commissions incurred on the sale of limited partnership
interests and the costs of preparing the prospectuses.
Syndication costs total $31,415.83. Syndication costs are not
amortized. Land purchase costs not previously allocated
represent commissions, legal expenses, and other expenses
incurred during the acquisition of the land. Current
unallocated land purchase costs total $1,187,852.72. The
allocation of land purchase costs to total costs of sale when
a parcel is sold is based on the parcel's original contract
price as a percentage of total contract prices of all

of the individual partners.
