Independent Auditor's Report
To the Managing General Partners of
Technology Funding Partners III, L.P.
Technology Funding Venture Partners IV, An Aggressive Growth
Fund, L.P.,
Technology Funding Venture Partners V, An Aggressive Growth
Fund, L.P., and
Technology Funding Medical Partners I, L.P.:
We have examined management's assertion about Technology Funding
Partners III, L.P., Technology Funding Venture Partners IV, An
Aggressive Growth Fund, L.P., Technology Funding Venture Partners
V, An Aggressive Growth Fund, L.P., and Technology Funding Medical
Partners I, L.P. (the "Funds'") compliance with the requirements
of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule 17f-2 under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 ("the Act") as of December 31, 1998, included
in the accompanying Management Statement Regarding Compliance with
Certain Provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Management is responsible for the Funds' compliance with those
requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
management's assertion about the Funds' compliance based on our
examination.
Our examination was made in accordance with standards established
by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and,
accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about
the Funds' compliance with those requirements and performing such
other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
Included among our procedures were the following tests performed
as of December 31, 1998, and with respect to agreement of security
purchases and sales, for the period from September 30, 1998 (the
date of our last examination) through December 31, 1998:
* Count and inspection of all securities located in the vault of
Silicon Valley Bank in San Mateo, California;
* Confirmation or examination of underlying documentation of all
securities purchased but not received;
* Reconciliation of all securities to the books and records of the
Funds and the Custodian; and
* Testing of a selected sample of security transactions to
determine that they were properly recorded.
We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for
our opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal
determination on the Funds' compliance with specified
requirements.
In our opinion, management's assertion that the Funds were in
compliance with the above mentioned provisions of Rule 17f-2 of
the Investment Company Act of 1940 as of December 31, 1998 with
respect to securities reflected in the investment accounts of the
Funds is fairly stated, in all material respects.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the
Managing General Partners of the Funds and the Securities and
Exchange Commission and should not be used by anyone other than
those specified parties.
