                                    PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS.

   PaineWebber R&D Partners II, L.P. (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") is  a
Delaware limited  partnership  that commenced operations on September 30, 1987.
PWDC Holding Company (the "Manager")  is  the  general  partner  of PaineWebber
Technologies II, L.P. (the "General Partner"), which is the general  partner of
the  Partnership.   PWDC  Holding  Company  is  a  wholly  owned  subsidiary of
PaineWebber   Development   Corporation  ("PWDC"),  an  indirect  wholly  owned
subsidiary of Paine Webber Group  Inc.  ("PWG"). The principal objective of the
Partnership is to provide long-term capital  appreciation  to investors through
investing  in  the  development  and  commercialization  of  new products  (the
"Projects") with technology companies ("Sponsor Companies") which  are expected
to address significant market opportunities.  The Partnership will terminate on
December  31,  2012,  unless  its  term  is  extended or reduced by the General
Partner.


   The  Partnership  has completely funded its ten  Projects  at  an  aggregate
investment of $65.2 million.   As  of  December  31,  1995,  three  of  the ten
Projects  with  Centocor,  Inc.,  Genzyme  Corporation  and Amgen Boulder, Inc.
(formerly, Synergen, Inc.) are currently ongoing programs.  The remaining seven
have either terminated or are near termination. (See Exhibit B, the President's
Letter to the Limited Partners, for a detailed discussion of the current status
of the Partnership's Projects).  In addition to investments in  Projects, as of
December 31, 1995, the Partnership owned warrants and marketable  securities as
described in Notes 3 and 5 of the "Notes to the Financial Statements"  on pages
F-9 through F-16 included in this filing on Form 10-K.


Partnership Management

   The  Partnership  has  delegated to the Manager,  pursuant  to  a management
agreement  (the  "Management  Contract"),  responsibility  for  management  and
administrative  services  necessary  for the operation of the Partnership.  The
Manager meets regularly with an Advisory  Board that acts as special advisor to
the Manager in the management of the Partnership's  Projects (see Exhibit A for
a brief biography of the Advisory Board Members).  Fees  and  expenses  of  the
Advisory Board are paid by PWDC.


   Under  the Management Contract, the Manager is entitled to receive an annual
management  fee  for  management  and  administrative  services provided to the
Partnership.  The management fee is equal to 2% of the aggregate gross proceeds
received by the Partnership, reduced by the Partnership's  capital  commitments
in Projects that have been concluded, and the final proceeds of which,  if any,
have  been  distributed  to  the  General  Partner  and limited partners of the
Partnership (the "Limited Partners"; with the General Partner, the "Partners").
As of July 1, 1995, the Manager had eliminated the management  fee  charged for
nine of the Partnership's ten Projects.

(ITEM 1 CONTINUED)

DISTRIBUTIONS

   All  distributions  to the Partners from the Partnership have been made  pro
rata  in accordance with  their  respective  net  capital  contributions.   The
following  table  sets forth the proportion of each distribution to be received
by the  Limited Partners and the General Partner, respectively:



                                                           LIMITED    GENERAL
                                                           PARTNERS   PARTNER

I.   Until the value of the aggregate distributions for
     each limited  partnership unit ("Unit") equals
     $10,000 plus simple interest on such amount
     accrued at 7% per annum for each Unit sold at  the
     Initial Closing (6% per annum for each subsequent
     Unit sold  up to the 5,000th Unit and 5% per annum
     for each Unit sold thereafter) ("Contribution                        
     Payout")                                                99%          1%

II.  After Contribution Payout and until the value of
     the aggregate distributions for each Unit equals
     $50,000 ("Final Payout")                                80%         20%

III. After Final Payout                                      75%         25%



   At   December   31,  1995,  the  Partnership  has  made  cash  and  security
distributions, as valued on the date of distribution, since inception of $1,585
and $7,297 per Unit, respectively.




OTHER


   At  December 31, 1995, the  Partnership  and  the  General  Partner  had  no
employees, and PWDC Holding Company, the general partner of the General Partner,
had no employees other than its executive officers  (see  Item  10.   DIRECTORS
AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT).   The  Partnership is engaged in one
primary business segment, the management of investments in technology  products
and companies.




ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES.


   The Partnership does not own or lease any office, manufacturing or laboratory
facilities.




ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.


ACTION AGAINST CENTOCOR, INC.


   In July 1995, the Partnership commenced an action  in  the Chancery Court of
Delaware   against   Centocor,   Inc.  ("Centocor")  and  Centocor  Development
Corporation III ("CDC III"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Centocor, arising out
of Centocor's July 1992 transaction with Eli Lilly & Company ("Lilly").




   In 1987 and 1988, the Partnership  and  others purchased limited partnership
interests in Centocor Partners III, L.P. ("CP  III"),  a limited partnership of
which CDC III is the general partner, which was established to develop and sell
CentoRX, a Centocor drug now known as ReoPro.







<PAGE>






(ITEM 3 CONTINUED)


   In July 1992, Centocor entered into a set of agreements  with  Lilly for the
stated purpose of Lilly making an equity investment in Centocor and  furthering
the  testing  and  eventual  distribution  of  Centoxin, another Centocor drug.
Pursuant to those agreements, Lilly paid Centocor  a  total of $100 million and
Centocor conveyed to Lilly, among other things, two million  shares of Centocor
common stock, exclusive marketing rights to Centoxin and an option  to  acquire
exclusive marketing rights to ReoPro.


    The Partnership's complaint alleges, among other things that: at least  $25
million  of  the $100 million paid by Lilly represents profits from the sale of
ReoPro that Centocor is required to share with CP III; and because of the Lilly
transaction, Centocor  is  required  to  increase the percentage of its profits
from ReoPro that it pays to CP III.  Centocor,  however, has taken the position
that only $500,000 of the $100 million must be shared  with  CP  III  and  that
Centocor  has  no  obligation  to increase the percentage of its ReoPro profits
that it pays to CP III.  The Partnership  is seeking to proceed on behalf of CP
III.  The complaint seeks to require Centocor  and CDC III to pay damages to CP
III and to increase the percentage of future ReoPro  profits that Centocor must
pay to CP III.


    On  or  about  September  15,  1995,  Centocor  and  CDC III  answered  the
complaint,  denying  the  material  allegations  thereof,  asserting  purported
affirmative defenses, and alleging a purported cross-claim against  CP  III and
a purported third-party claim against PWG and PWDC.  Centocor and CDC III  also
assert  that  the  Partnership  cannot  properly  act as a derivative plaintiff
because of alleged conflicts of interests of PWG and  PWDC.   PWG and PWDC have
denied the material allegations of the third-party claim.  Centocor and CDC III
are seeking to amend their pleading to, among other things, add  a  third-party
claim against PaineWebber Incorporated ("PWI").


    In  September  1995,  another  limited  partner  of CP III, John Abdo,  has
commenced an action in the Chancery Court of Delaware against Centocor, CDC III
and certain Centocor officers.  Like the Partnership,  that  limited partner is
seeking to proceed on behalf of CP III.  The claims in this action  are similar
to  those  asserted in the Partnership's action, and is being coordinated  with
the Partnership's action for discovery purposes.


    PWDC has  been  advancing, and may continue to advance, the funds necessary
to pay the Partnership's  legal  fees and expenses relating to this litigation.
In the event of a recovery on behalf  of CP III, the court may award legal fees
and expenses to the Partnership's counsel,  and/or  Mr.  Abdo's  counsel, to be
paid  out  of  the recovery.  It is anticipated that: the net proceeds  of  any
recovery will be  distributed  to the limited partners of CP III, including the
Partnership, on a pro rata basis;  the  Partnership  and/or  its  counsel  will
reimburse  PWDC;  and any remaining Partnership proceeds will be distributed to
the Partners of the Partnership on a pro rata basis.


IN RE: PAINEWEBBER PARTNERSHIP LITIGATION


   As previously disclosed  on  the  Partnership's Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1994, PaineWebber Technologies  II,  L.P.,  the General Partner of
the Partnership, was named as a defendant in a class action lawsuit against PWI
and a number of its affiliates relating to PWI's sale of 70  direct  investment
offerings, including the offering of interests in the Partnership.  In  January
1996, PWI signed a memorandum of understanding with the plaintiffs in the class
action  outlining  the terms under which the parties have agreed to settle  the
case.  Pursuant to that  memorandum of understanding, PWI irrevocably deposited
$125 million into an escrow  fund  under  the  supervision of the United States
District Court for the Southern District of New  York  (the "Court") to be used
to resolve the litigation

(ITEM 3 CONTINUED)

in accordance with a definitive settlement agreement and  a plan of  allocation
which  the  parties  expect  to  submit to the Court for its consideration  and
approval within the next several months.   Until  a  definitive  settlement and
plan of allocation is approved by the Court, there can be no assurance what, if
any,   payment   or  non-monetary  benefits  will  be  made  available  to  the
Partnership.

     In  February  1996,  approximately  150  plaintiffs  filed  an  action  in
Sacramento, California  Superior  Court  against  PWI  and  various  affiliated
entities,  including  the  General  Partner of the Partnership, concerning  the
plaintiffs' purchases of various limited  partnership interests.  The complaint
alleges, among other things, that PWI and its  related entities committed fraud
and  misrepresentation and breached fiduciary duties  allegedly  owned  to  the
plaintiffs  by  selling  or promoting limited partnership investments that were
unsuitable for the plaintiffs and by overstating the benefits, understating the
risks and failing to state  material  facts  concerning  the  investments.  The
complaint seeks compensatory damages of $15 million plus punitive damages.


ITEM 4.   SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

       None.

                                    PART II

ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

   There is no existing  public  market  for  the Units, and no such market  is
expected to develop.  Units are transferable subject  to  certain  restrictions
set forth in the Partnership Agreement and applicable securities laws.   As  of
December 31, 1995, there were 6,388 Limited Partners.


   The  Partnership  distributes  to  its  Partners  when  available,  the  net
proceeds,  if  any,  from royalty distributions, interest payments on portfolio
securities and from disposition  of  portfolio securities and any other cash or
other unrestricted securities of the Partnership  in excess of amounts that are
necessary for the operation of the Partnership's business.   The  Partnership's
policy is to distribute common stock (or cash from the sale of common stock) to
the  Partners  once  the  restricted  period  on  transfers  has  lapsed.   The
Partnership's  cash  distributions to its Partners totaled $1,084,252 ($130 per
Unit; $10,842 to the general  partnership interest) and $417,020 ($50 per Unit;
$4,170 to the general partnership  interest)  for  the years ended December 31,
1995  and  1994,  respectively.   For  the year ended December  31,  1995,  the
Partnership distributed 1,518,074 shares  of  Cygnus,  Inc.  ("Cygnus")  common
stock  (182 shares per Unit; 15,300 shares to the general partnership interest)
valued at  $12,903,629  ($1,547  per  Unit; $130,050 to the general partnership
interest) on the date of distribution.  For  the  year ended December 31, 1994,
the  Partnership  distributed  367,043  shares of Alkermes,  Inc.  ("Alkermes")
common  stock  (44 shares per Unit; 3,670 shares  to  the  general  partnership
interest)  valued  at  $1,985,385  ($238  per  Unit;  $19,854  to  the  general
partnership interest) on the dates of distribution.


ITEM 6.  SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.

See the "Selected Financial Data (Unaudited)" on Page F-2 in this filing.


ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

   Partners' capital at December 31, 1995 was  $5.1  million  compared to $12.7
million  at  December  31, 1994, a decrease of $7.6 million.  The  decrease  in
partners' capital was a  result  of  net income from operations of $6.4 million
(as discussed in Results of Operations below) offset by the distribution to the
Partners  of  Cygnus common stock valued  at  $12.9  million  on  the  date  of
distribution and cash distributions of $1.1 million.


   The Partnership's  working  capital  is  invested  in marketable securities.
Liquid assets at December 31, 1995 were $1.3 million compared  to  $2.3 million
at  December  31,  1994,  a  decrease  of $1.0 million.  The decrease in liquid
assets is primarily due to cash distributions to Partners of $1.1 million.  The
balance  of  working  capital will be used  for  future  distributions  to  the
Partners and the payment of management fees and administrative costs related to
managing the Partnership's investments.



<PAGE>


(Item 7 Continued)

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994:


   Net income for the year ended December 31, 1995 was $6.4 million compared to
$9.4 million for the year  ended  December  31,  1994.   The  decrease  of $3.0
million  was  due  to  a  decrease  in revenues of $3.6 million, the cumulative
effect  of  a change in accounting method  of  $0.4  million  (see  Results  of
Operations for  the  year  ended  December  31, 1994 compared to the year ended
December 31, 1993), and a decline in expenses of $1.0 million.


   Revenues for the year ended December 31, 1995  were $7.1 million compared to
$10.7 million for the same period in 1994.  The decrease  of  $3.6  million was
primarily  due  to  the  recognition of gains on the sale of a Project of  $8.9
million and the sale of a  warrant  of  $0.7  million  in  1994 (see Results of
Operations  for  the year ended December 31, 1994 compared to  the  year  ended
December 31, 1993)  offset  by  increases in 1995 in unrealized appreciation of
investments and marketable securities  of $2.7 million and in realized gains on
distribution of investments and marketable  securities of $3.2 million.  In May
1995 the Partnership distributed 1,518,074 shares of Cygnus common stock to its
Partners.  The market value of the shares on the date of distribution was $12.9
million ($8.50 per share) as compared to the  carrying  value  at  December 31,
1994,  of  $10.3  million  ($6.75  per  share).   Accordingly,  the Partnership
recognized  a  gain  of  $2.6  million  upon  the  distribution.  In 1994,  the
Partnership distributed 367,043 shares of Alkermes common stock to its Partners
with an aggregate carrying value of $2.6 million ($7.00 per share).  The market
value  on  the  dates  of  distribution  was  a  combined  $2.0  million.   The
Partnership recognized a realized loss of $0.6 million in 1994  relating to the
distribution of Alkermes common stock to its Partners.


   Expenses for the year ended December 31, 1995 were $0.7 million  compared to
$1.7  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31, 1994.  The decrease of $1.0
million is attributable to a decrease in expenditures under product development
projects of $0.8 million and a decrease of $0.2 million  in management fees and
administrative  costs.   During  1994 the Partnership made product  development
expenditures to Cygnus in the amount  of  $1.3  million  and  Synergen Clinical
Partners,  L.P.  in  the amount of $0.7 million.  The Partnership  had  accrued
payments of $0.6 million  to  Cygnus  and  $0.7  million  to  Synergen Clinical
Partners,  L.P.  at  December  31,  1993.   As of January 1, 1995, all  of  the
Partnership's Projects were fully funded. Management fees decreased as a result
of the Manager's decision to discontinue the  management  fee  charged on three
additional Projects in 1995.


YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993:

   Net income for the year ended December 31, 1994 was $9.4 million compared to
$1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 1993, a favorable variance of $8.0 
million. The variance  of  $8.0 million  was due  to an increase in revenues of
$1.8 million, the  cumulative  effect of a change in accounting  method of $0.4
million and a decline in expenses of $5.8 million.

        The  Partnership  adopted  the  provisions  of  Statement  of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in  Debt  and
Equity Securities" ("Statement No. 115") for investments held as of or acquired
after  January 1, 1994.  The cumulative effect of adopting Statement No. 115 as
of January  1,  1994 was to increase net income for the year ended December 31,
1994 by $0.4 million  due  to  the  difference  between  the carrying value and
market value of a restricted security position as of December 31, 1993.



<PAGE>



(ITEM 7 CONTINUED)

        Revenues  for  the  year  ended  December 31, 1994 were  $10.7  million
compared to $8.9 million for the same period  in  1993, a favorable variance of
$1.8  million.  The increase was primarily due to a  gain  on  the  sale  of  a
Project  of $8.9 million, an increase in unrealized appreciation of investments
and marketable securities of $1.3 million and an increase in realized net gains
on sales of  warrants  and  marketable  securities  of $0.5 million offset by a
decrease   in  realized  gains  on  distribution  of  investments,   marketable
securities and warrants of $8.7 million.  In December 1994, the Partnership and
Cygnus entered  into  the  GMS  Technology  Purchase  Agreement  whereby Cygnus
purchased  from  the  Partnership  the  rights  to  glucose  monitoring  system
technology  ("GMS") developed under research and development agreements between
Cygnus and the  Partnership.   In  exchange  for  the  technology  rights,  the
Partnership  received  Cygnus  common  stock  with  a  carrying  value  to  the
Partnership  of  $8.9  million.  At December 31, 1994, the Partnership wrote-up
its investment in Cygnus  to  market value resulting in unrealized appreciation
of $1.3 million.  Also, in 1994,  the  Partnership sold its warrant to purchase
100,000  shares  of Rogers Corporation common  stock  for  $0.7  million.   The
warrant had a carrying  value at the date of sale of $0.  In January and August
1994,  the  Partnership  distributed   166,841   shares   and  200,202  shares,
respectively,  of  Alkermes  common  stock  to its Partners with  an  aggregate
carrying value of $2.6 million ($7.00 per share).  The market value on the date
of distribution was $1.3 million ($8.00 per share)  in  January  1994  and $0.7
million  ($3.25  per  share)  in  August  1994.   The  Partnership recognized a
realized loss of $0.6 million in 1994 relating to the distribution  of Alkermes
common  stock  to  its  Partners.  In 1993, the Partnership recognized realized
gains on the distribution of warrants and investments totaling $8.1 million.

      Expenses for the year  ended December 31, 1994 were $1.7 million compared
to $7.5 million for the year ended  December  31,  1993,  a  decrease  of  $5.8
million.   The variance is primarily attributable to a decrease in expenditures
under product development projects of $4.7 million and a decrease in management
fees of $1.0  million.   During  1994, the Partnership made product development
expenditures to Cygnus in the amount  of  $1.3  million  and  Synergen Clinical
Partners,  L.P.  in  the amount of $0.7 million.  The Partnership  had  accrued
payments of $0.6 million  to  Cygnus  and  $0.7  million  to  Synergen Clinical
Partners, L.P. at December 31, 1993. Product development expenditures  for  the
year ended December 31, 1993 consisted of aggregate payments of $5.5 million to
CLI,  Cadre  Technologies,  Inc.,  Synergen  Clinical  Partners,  L.P., Genzyme
Development  Partners, L.P. and Cygnus.  Management fees decreased in  1994  by
$1.0 million because  the  Manager  elected  to  discontinue the management fee
charged on four Projects commencing in January 1994.

managed  by  PWDC  Holding  Company  (the  "Manager"),  the  general partner of
PaineWebber Technologies II, L.P. (the "General Partner"), which is the general
partner of the Partnership.


   The  Partnership  has  delegated to the Manager, pursuant to the  Management
Contract, responsibility for  management  and administrative services necessary
for the operation of the Partnership.  Based  in  part  on discussions with the
Advisory  Board,  the Manager assesses and manages the Partnership's  Projects.
As part of its ongoing  role  in  all  Projects,  the Manager participates in a
steering  committee  or similar body with the Sponsor  Companies  with  overall
responsibility for each Project during the development phase. The Manager makes
regular visits to the  facilities  of  each Sponsor Company in order to monitor
the progress of its Projects, and its representatives  take  part  in important
decisions  with  respect to development and commercial strategies.  During  the
commercialization phase, the Manager continues to review each Sponsor Company's
performance.  In addition,  the  Manager  actively  monitors  the industries in
which it undertakes Projects by attending trade shows, screening trade journals
and reviewing changes in legislative and regulatory conditions.


   The  following  table  sets  forth certain information with respect  to  the
persons who are directors and executive  officers  of  the  Manager, as well as

Report of Independent Auditors


To the Partners of PaineWebber R&D Partners II, L.P.:

We   have  audited  the  accompanying  statements  of  financial  condition  of
PaineWebber  R&D  Partners  II,  L.P. as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
related statements of operations,  changes in partners' capital, and cash flows
for  each of the three years in the period  ended  December  31,  1995.   These
financial  statements  are  the responsibility of the Partnership's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require  that  we  plan  and  perform  the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are  free of
material  misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting  the  amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also  includes  assessing   the  accounting  principles  used  and  significant
estimates made by management,  as  well  as  evaluating  the  overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable  basis
for our opinion.

In  our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,  in

                     PAINEWEBBER R&D PARTNERS II, L.P.
                     (a Delaware Limited Partnership)

                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.  ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

    PaineWebber R&D Partners II, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a Delaware limited
partnership that commenced operations  on  September  30,  1987 with a total of
$72.0 million available for investment.  PWDC Holding Company  (the  "Manager")
is  the  general  partner  of  PaineWebber  Technologies II, L.P. (the "General
Partner"),  which  is  the general partner of the  Partnership.   PWDC  Holding
Company is a wholly owned  subsidiary  of  PaineWebber  Development Corporation
("PWDC"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Paine Webber  Group Inc.  The
Partnership will terminate on December 31, 2012, unless its term is extended or
reduced by the General Partner.


   The  principal objective of the Partnership is to provide long-term  capital
appreciation   to   investors   through   investing   in  the  development  and
commercialization   of   new  products  with  technology  companies   ("Sponsor
Companies"), which are expected  to  address  significant market opportunities.
Once the product development phase is completed, the Sponsor Companies have the
option to license and commercialize the products  resulting  from  the  product
development  project,  and  the  Partnership  has the right to receive payments
based upon the sale of such products.  In connection  with  product development
projects  (the  "Projects"),  the  Partnership  sought  to  obtain warrants  to
purchase  the  common  stock  of  Sponsor Companies.  These warrants  have  the
potential to provide additional capital  appreciation  to the Partnership which
is not directly dependent upon the outcome of the Projects  (see  Note  5).  In
addition,  the Partnership invested as a limited partner in product development
limited partnerships.   Such  partnerships were formed to develop specific, new
products  through contracts with  Sponsor  Companies.   The  Sponsor  Companies
conduct the  Projects  and affiliates of the Sponsor Companies serve as general
partners of the partnerships.   As  a  result  of  restructuring  some  of  the
original  Projects,  the  Partnership  also obtained restricted common stock in
some  of the Sponsor Companies (see Note  3).   As  such,  the  Partnership  is
engaged   in   diverse  Projects  through  contracts,  participation  in  other
partnerships and investments in securities of the Sponsor Companies.

    All distributions to the limited partners of the Partnership (the "Limited
Partners") and the General Partner (collectively, the "Partners") from the
Partnership have been made pro rata in accordance with their respective net
capital contributions.  The following table sets forth the proportion of each
distribution to be received by the Limited Partners and the General Partner,
respectively:


                                                            LIMITED   GENERAL

I.   Until the value of the aggregate distributions 
     for each limited partnership unit ("Unit") 
     equals $10,000 plus simple interest on such 
     amount accrued at 7% per annum for each Unit 
     sold at the Initial Closing (6% per annum for 
     each subsequent Unit sold up to the 5,000th 
     Unit and 5% per annum for each Unit sold 
     thereafter) ("Contribution Payout")                        99%       1%

II.  After Contribution Payout and until the value 
     of the aggregate distributions for each Unit 
     equals $50,000 ("Final Payout")                            80%      20%

                     PAINEWEBBER R&D PARTNERS II, L.P.
                     (a Delaware Limited Partnership)

                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(NOTE 1 CONTINUED)

  During 1995, the Partnership made a cash distribution of $1,084,252 ($130 per
Unit; $10,842 to the  General Partner) and a security distribution with a value
on the  date of  distribution  of $12,903,629 ($1,547 per Unit; $130,050 to the
General Partner).  At December 31, 1995,  the  Partnership  has  made  cash and
security distributions since inception of $1,585 and $7,297 per Unit, 
respectively.


2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   The financial statements are prepared in  conformity with generally accepted
accounting  principles  which  require  management   to   make   estimates  and
assumptions  that  affect the amounts reported in the financial statements  and
accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


   The Partnership adopted  the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 115, "Accounting  for  Certain  Investments  in  Debt  and Equity
Securities" ("Statement No. 115"), for investments held as of or acquired after
January  1, 1994.  In accordance with Statement No. 115, prior period financial
statements  have  not been restated to reflect the change in accounting method.
The cumulative effect  of adopting Statement No. 115 as of January 1, 1994, was
to increase net income for  the  year  ended  December 31, 1994, by $366,334 or
$43.92 per Unit.  Prior to the adoption of Statement  No.  115, the Partnership
accounted  for  its investments in restricted common stock (regardless  of  the
restriction period) at the lower of cost or fair value.


   Marketable securities  consist of a money market fund and common stock which
are recorded at market value.   Marketable  securities  are not considered cash
equivalents for the Statements of Cash Flows.


   Realized  and  unrealized  gains  or  losses are determined  on  a  specific
identification method and are reflected in  the Statements of Operations during
the period in which the change in value occurs.


   The Partnership invested in Projects, further  described  in Note 5, through
one of the following two vehicles:

       Product Development Contracts
       The Partnership paid amounts  to  Sponsor  Companies  under  product 
       development contracts.  Such amounts were expensed by the Partnership 
       when incurred by the Sponsor  Companies.  Income  from the Sponsor  
       Companies  is reflected in the Statements of Operations for the 
       period in which the income is earned.


       Product Development Limited Partnerships
       The Partnership participates  as  a  limited  partner in product 
       development limited partnerships formed to develop specific 
       products. Such participations are accounted for using the equity 
       method.  Such partnerships expensed product development costs when 
       incurred.



   The  Partnership carries warrants at a zero value in cases where the Sponsor
Company's  stock  is  not  publicly  traded or the exercise period has not been
attained.   To  the  extent  that  the  Partnership's  warrants  are  currently
exercisable and the Sponsor Company's stock  is  publicly  traded, the warrants
are carried at intrinsic value (the excess of market price per  share  over the
exercise price per share), which approximates fair value.

   Certain reclassifications have been made in prior year amounts to conform to
current year presentations.

INVESTMENTS:

The Partnership held the  following  investments  as  of  December 31, 1995 and

          Restricted Common Stock             ------          10,327,102
                                           -----------       -----------

                                           $3,791,626        $10,327,102
                                           ===========       ===========


   At  December  31,  1995, the Partnership recorded its warrants  to  purchase
300,000 and 2,800 common  shares  of  Cygnus  and  Centocor,  respectively,  as
investments  with  carrying  values  equal  to  their  intrinsic  values (which
approximate fair value)-(see Note 5).  Accordingly, the Partnership  recognized
unrealized  appreciation  of  $3,791,626 for the year ended December 31,  1995,
which has been included in the accompanying Statements of Operations.


    In  December  1994,  the  Partnership  and  Cygnus  entered  into  the  GMS
Technology Purchase Agreement whereby Cygnus purchased from the Partnership the
rights to glucose monitoring system  technology ("GMS") developed under product
development agreements between Cygnus and the Partnership.  In exchange for its
technology rights, the Partnership received  1,529,941  shares of Cygnus common
stock valued at $8,988,403 which was based on the market  price  per  share  of
$5.875  on  the date of receipt. At December 31, 1994, the Partnership recorded
its Cygnus common  stock  at  the  closing  market  price  of  $6.75  per share
(totaling $10,327,102) and, accordingly, recognized unrealized appreciation  of
$1,338,699  which  has  been reflected in the Statements of Operations.  In May
1995, the Partnership distributed  to  its  Partners 1,518,074 shares of Cygnus
common stock.  The market value of the Cygnus  common  stock  on  the  date  of
distribution  was  $12,903,629  ($8.50  per  share).  The carrying value of the
shares distributed was $10,246,999 ($6.75 per  share)  as of December 31, 1994.
Accordingly, the Partnership recognized a realized gain  upon  the distribution
of  $2,656,630  for  the  year  ended December 31, 1995.  The remaining  11,867
shares of Cygnus common stock were held as marketable securities.


    In  1994,  in  accordance with the  adoption  of  Statement  No.  115,  the
Partnership commenced  recording  investments in restricted common stock (where
the restriction period expires in one  year  or  less)  at  market  value  with
unrealized  gains  and  losses reflected in the Statements of Operations during
the period in which the change  in value occurs.  Restricted common stock, with
a restriction period greater than  one year, is carried at the lower of cost or
fair value.  The cumulative effect at  January  1,   1994 of adopting Statement
No.  115 was to increase the carrying value of the Alkermes  restricted  common
stock by $366,334.

                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(NOTE 3 CONTINUED)


    The  Partnership distributed 617,230 shares of Alkermes common stock to its
Partners in October 1993.  The market value of the Alkermes common stock on the
date of distribution was $6,326,608 ($10.25 per share) compared to the carrying
value at December  31,  1992, of $3,703,380 ($6.00 per share).  A realized gain
of $2,623,228 was recognized  on  the  distribution for the year ended December
31,  1993.   On  January  5 and August 8, 1994,  166,841  and  200,202  shares,
respectively, of Alkermes restricted  common  stock  were  distributed  by  the
Partnership to its Partners.   The market value of the Alkermes common stock on
January  5  and  August  8, 1994, was $1,334,728 ($8.00 per share) and $650,656
($3.25 per share), respectively,  compared  to  an  aggregate carrying value at
December 31, 1993, of $2,569,301 ($7.00 per share). For the year ended December
31, 1994, an aggregate realized loss of $583,917 was recognized with respect to
the distributions.


4.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

   The  Manager  receives  an   annual   management  fee  for   management  and
administrative  services  provided to  the Partnership.  The  management fee is
equal to 2% of the aggregate  gross   proceeds  received  by  the  Partnership,
reduced   by  the Partnership's  capital commitments in Projects that have been
concluded, and the  final  proceeds of  which (if any) have been distributed to
the Partners of the Partnership.   The  management  fee  is  payable  quarterly
in advance and is adjusted annually on the first day of each fiscal year in  an
amount proportionate to  the  increase  in the prior year in the Consumer Price
Index published by the United States Department of  Labor.  As of July 1, 1995,
the  Manager  had  eliminated  the  management  fee  charged  for  nine  of the
Partnership's ten Projects.  The management fees paid by the Partnership to the
Manager were $347,070, $618,795 and $1,589,224 for the years ended December 31,
1995,  1994 and 1993, respectively.


   The Partnership's portfolio which consists of a money market fund is managed
by  Mitchell  Hutchins  Institutional Investors ("MHII"), an affiliate of PWDC.
PWDC pays MHII a fee with respect to such money management services.


   PWDC and PaineWebber Incorporated,  and  its  affiliates,  have  acted in an
investment banking capacity for several of the Sponsor Companies.  In addition,
PWDC and its affiliates have direct limited partnership interests in  the  same
Projects as the Partnership.


5.  COMMITMENTS UNDER PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS

   The Partnership entered into ten Projects (Alkermes; Cadre Technologies Inc.;
Centocor Partners III,  L.P.;  Compression  Labs,  Incorporated;  Cygnus; FOCUS
Surgery,  Inc.;  Genentech  Clinical  Partners  IV,  L.P.;  Genzyme Development
Partners, L.P.; Rogers Corporation; and Synergen Clinical Partners,  L.P).   As
of December 31, 1995, all of the Projects were fully funded.

                     (a Delaware Limited Partnership)

                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(NOTE 5 CONTINUED)


   If  the  Projects  produce  any  product  for  commercial  sale, the Sponsor
Companies  have  the option to enter into joint ventures or royalty  agreements
with the Partnership  to  manufacture  and  market  the products developed.  In
addition, the Sponsor Companies have the option to purchase  the  Partnership's
interest  in  the technology.  In consideration for such purchase options,  the
Partnership has  received  warrants  to  purchase shares of common stock of the
Sponsor Companies. These warrants were carried at zero value as of December 31,
1994.  At December 31, 1995, the market prices per share of Cygnus and Centocor
common  stock exceeded the exercise prices  per  share  of  the  warrants  and,
accordingly,  the  Partnership  recorded  these  warrants  as  investments with
carrying  values equal to their intrinsic values which approximate  fair  value
(see Note 3).   At  December  31,  1995,  the  Partnership  owned the following
warrants:

*The  share  prices of these technology companies are generally highly volatile
and the shares  are  often  thinly  traded.   The market prices indicated as of
December 31, 1995, may not be indicative of the  ultimate  values, if any, that
may be realized by the Partnership.

   (A)  At  December  31,  1995,  the  common stock of Cadre  Technologies Inc.
        was  not  publicly traded. In December 1995, Cadre announced  a  merger
        agreement with  Bachman  Information Systems, Inc. ("Bachman") expected
        to close in April 1996.  At  that  time the Cadre warrants will convert
        into  Bachman  warrants at a conversion  ratio  that  is  still  to  be
        finalized.


   (B)  The  carrying  value  of  this  warrant at its intrinsic value has been
        included in Investments  in  the  accompanying  Statements of Financial
        Condition.


   (C)  In  conjunction  with  a  public  offering  by  Cygnus  of  its  common
        stock, the Partnership  has  agreed  not  to  sell, contract to sell or
        otherwise dispose of its warrant to purchase Cygnus common shares for a
        period which expired on January 5, 1996.


   (D)  In  October  1993,  Diasonics,  Inc.  completed   a   major   corporate
        restructuring  under which  Diasonics,  Inc.  was  divided  into  three
        separate publicly  traded  companies: Diasonics UltraSound, Inc., FOCUS
        Surgery, Inc. and OEC Medical  Systems, Inc.  The Partnership's warrant
        is to purchase the stock of OEC Medical Systems, Inc.

                     PAINEWEBBER R&D PARTNERS II, L.P.
                     (a Delaware Limited Partnership)

                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(NOTE 5 CONTINUED)

   In October 1994, the Partnership sold its warrant to purchase 100,000 shares
of common stock of Rogers Corporation for  $723,900 and realized a gain of this
amount on the sale.


    In 1993, the Partnership distributed to  its  Partners substantially all of
the  warrants  to  purchase  common  stock  received  from   investments   with
Compression  Labs,  Incorporated ("CLI") and Synergen, Inc.  The CLI warrant to
purchase 884,142 shares  of  CLI  common  stock was valued at $5,525,888 at the
date of distribution and, accordingly, the  Partnership  recognized  a  gain of
this  amount  in  1993.   The remaining warrant to purchase 5,858 shares of CLI
common  stock was exercised  by  the  Partnership  and  the  common  stock  was
subsequently  sold  in  November  1993.   A gain of $32,596 was realized by the
Partnership on the sale of the CLI common stock.   The  Synergen,  Inc. warrant
distribution was valued at $0 at the date of distribution.


    In  April  1993,  the Partnership exercised its warrant to purchase  18,433
shares of Genentech, Inc.  ("Genentech")  common  stock at an exercise price of
$23.26 per share.  Pursuant to Genentech's restructuring  of  the  terms of the
warrant,  the  Partnership  received  $36.00 in cash and one share of Genentech
common  stock  for  every  two  shares  it  originally   would  have  received.
Accordingly,  upon  exercise  of  the warrant, the Partnership  received  9,217
shares of Genentech common stock and  $331,830  in cash.  The 9,217 shares were
subsequently sold and the Partnership realized a  gain  in  1993 of $227,400 on
the sale of the Genentech common stock.


6.  INCOME TAXES

   The Partnership is not  subject  to  federal,  state or local income  taxes.
Accordingly, the individual Partners are required to  report their distributive
shares of realized income and loss on their individual federal and state income
tax returns.


7.  LEGAL PROCEEDING

   On July 12, 1995, the Partnership commenced an action against  Centocor  and
Centocor Development  Corporation  III  ("CDC  III")  in  the Chancery Court of
Delaware arising from certain agreements entered into by Centocor and Eli Lilly
& Company ("Lilly") in July 1992.  The Partnership's complaint  alleges,  among
other  things  that:  at  least  $25  million of the $100 million paid by Lilly
represents profits from the sale of ReoPro,  a  Centocor drug, that Centocor is
required to share with Centocor Partners III, L.P.  ("CP  III"); and because of
the Lilly transaction, Centocor is required to increase the  percentage  of its
profits  from ReoPro that it pays to CP III.  Centocor, however, has taken  the
position that  only $500,000 of the $100 million must be shared with CP III and
that Centocor has  no  obligation  to  increase  the  percentage  of its ReoPro
profits  that  it  pays  to  CP III.  The Partnership is seeking to proceed  on
behalf of itself and all other limited partners of CP III.  The complaint seeks
to require Centocor and CDC III  to  pay  damages to CP III and to increase the
percentage of future ReoPro profits that Centocor must pay to CP III. There can
be no assurance that the Partnership's claim will be successful.


   PWDC has been advancing, and may continue to advance, the funds necessary to
pay the Partnership's legal fees and expenses  relating to this litigation.  In
the event of a recovery on behalf of CP III, the court may award legal fees and
expenses to the Partnership's counsel, to be paid  out  of the recovery.  It is
anticipated that: the net proceeds of any recovery will be  distributed  to the
limited partners of CP III, including the Partnership, on a pro rata basis; the
Partnership   and/or  its  counsel  will  reimburse  PWDC;  and  any  remaining
Partnership proceeds  will be distributed to the Partners of the Partnership on
a pro rata basis.

8.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

   On January 31, 1996,  Genzyme  Corporation  ("Genzyme")  made  an offer (the
"Offer")  to the general partner of Genzyme Development Partners, L.P.  ("GDP")
(of which the  Partnership  owns a limited partnership interest) to acquire the
assets of GDP in exchange for  common  shares  of  Genzyme (the "Acquisition").
The  Offer  was  made  in lieu of Genzyme's existing option   to  purchase  the
outstanding partnership  interests  in  GDP  for  a  lump-sum  cash payment and
certain future royalty payments.  The Offer is conditioned upon the approval of
the general partner of  GDP, affirmation by a vote of a two-thirds  interest of
the  limited  partners  of  GDP and certain assurances regarding the accounting
treatment of the Acquisition  for Genzyme.  If the Acquisition is approved, the
common shares of Genzyme will be  distributed  to  the  limited partners of GDP
(including the Partnership).


    In March 1996, FOCUS Surgery, Inc. ("FOCUS") announced  the  signing  of  a
letter  of  intent  with  Takai  Hospital Supply Co. for the sale of all of the
assets of FOCUS.  Simultaneously,  FOCUS  filed for protection under Chapter 11
of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.  The Partnership  will  continue  to  maintain its
rights  to the technology under the project agreement with FOCUS but  does  not
anticipate realizing any further revenues therefrom.

PAINEWEBBER R&D PARTNERS II, L.P.      


LETTER TO LIMITED PARTNERS

To Our Limited Partners:

PaineWebber  R&D Partners II, L.P. ("R&D Partners II" or the "Partnership")
is nearing its final stage with the potential commercialization of three of
its products on  the  near  horizon.   R&D  Partners II was structured as a
diversified portfolio of product development  programs with the expectation
that a portion of the products under development  would become commercially
successful.    In  1995,  products  in  programs  with  two   biotechnology
companies, Centocor,  Inc. ("Centocor") and Genzyme Corporation ("Genzyme")
yielded exciting results in late-stage clinical trials.  Both companies are
now preparing to file data  with  the  U.S.  Food  and  Drug Administration
("FDA")  for review of their respective products.  If any  or  all  of  the
three products  receive  marketing  approval  from  the  FDA  and  begin to
generate  revenues,  the  sponsor  companies  are  obligated  to  make cash
payments to R&D Partners II.

Centocor  made  two  separate  announcements  regarding  the  status of the
clinical development of ReoPro<trademark> in December 1995.  ReoPro  is  an
anticlotting  drug  intended to reduce acute cardiac ischemic complications
in patients undergoing  angioplasty.   ReoPro  received  marketing approval
from   the  FDA  in  1994  for  use  in  the  reduction  of  acute  cardiac
complications,  but  only in patients undergoing angioplasty procedures who
are at high risk for abrupt  artery  closure.   In 1995, Centocor announced
results  of  two  separate  trials of ReoPro targeted  toward  the  larger,
general angioplasty market.

First, Centocor announced positive  findings  at its first interim analysis
of 1,500 patients in the 4,800-patient Epilog trial  for ReoPro.  According
to  Centocor, the data from the Epilog trial provides strong  evidence  for
protection  from  death and heart attack, even in routine elective coronary
angioplasty procedures.   Second,  Centocor  announced  that  it halted the
1,400-patient  Capture  trial  for  ReoPro due to positive findings  at  an
interim analysis of 1,050 patients. The  Capture  trial was being conducted
in   refractory   unstable  angina  patients  scheduled  for   percutaneous
transluminal coronary  angioplasty.   Both  of the interim analyses results
were  reviewed  by  independent Safety and Efficacy  Monitoring  Committees
which  analyzed  the  data   for  the  trials'  primary  endpoints:  death,
myocardial infarction and, in  the  Capture  trial,   the  need  for urgent
intervention  within  30  days.   The  committees concluded that the trials
should  be  stopped  since efficacy exceeded  the  current  stopping  rule.
Centocor plans to file  a  New Drug Application ("NDA") with the FDA by the
end of 1996.

Genzyme has submitted Pre-Market Approval ("PMA") applications with the FDA
for  review  of  two  of  the  products   in  R&D  Partners  II's  program,
Seprafilm<trademark> and Sepracoat<trademark>.   The  PMA  application  for
Seprafilm  will be for use in both abdominal and pelvic operations based on
data from a  pivotal  multi-center  study and a previous trial in abdominal
surgery.  Genzyme is developing Seprafilm  to inhibit adhesion formation in
a wide range of abdominal and pelvic

<PAGE>                            Page 2

PAINEWEBBER R&D PARTNERS II, L.P.      


operations.  Seprafilm is a hyaluronic acid ("HA")-based bioresorbable film
which  is  applied  after  surgery around traumatized  tissues  to  prevent
adhesions prior to closure of  the  surgical  site.   The  results  of  the
gynecologic   surgery   study,   announced   in  September,  revealed  that
gynecologic surgery patients treated with Seprafilm had significantly fewer
postoperative uterine adhesions than did an untreated  control  group.  The
study   also  revealed  that  adhesions  in  the  Seprafilm  group  covered
significantly less surface area of the uterus, and uterine adhesions in the
Seprafilm group were significantly less extensive and severe.

In January 1996, Genzyme filed a PMA with the  FDA to  market Sepracoat for
use  in  abdominal,  gynecologic  and  cardiovascular  surgical procedures.
Genzyme's Sepracoat is a second formulation of  Genzyme's HA-based surgical
products used to coat exposed organs during surgery.  According to Genzyme, 
the data of  this  separate  trial revealed that patients  using  Sepracoat
have a  significantly  lower incidence  of postoperative adhesions than did
patients  who received  placebo  in a  randomized  blinded  clinical trial.
Genzyme  was notified by the FDA that the regulatory agency  will  expedite
its review of the PMAs for both Sepracoat and Seprafilm.

R&D  Partners  II  was  formed in 1987 and invested in a portfolio  of  ten
product development programs.   Of  the  ongoing  programs,  we expect that
those with Centocor and Genzyme will be the most successful.  The remaining
ongoing  program  that  is  being  sponsored by Amgen Boulder Inc.  ("Amgen
Boulder" formerly "Synergen, Inc.") is conducting a Phase II clinical trial
of Antril<trademark>, a product sponsored by R&D Partners II, for potential
use  in  the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis  which  is  expected  to  be
completed  in  1996.   The  results  from this trial will indicate to Amgen
Boulder whether or not  it will proceed  into  a  Phase III trial of Antril
for this disease.

The following programs of R&D Partners II  which have  concluded  generated
significant   returns.   The  program  with  Cygnus,  Inc.  ("Cygnus")  was
purchased back  by  Cygnus in 1994.  R&D Partners II committed $5.5 million
to Cygnus and received  1,529,941  shares  of  common  stock  from  Cygnus,
representing   approximately   $13.0  million  in  value  on  the  date  of
distribution (May 16, 1995).  Since  the  distribution  of  182  shares  of
Cygnus common stock per $10,000 investment in R&D Partners II, the value of
the Cygnus common stock has  ranged from $1,025 to $4,301.  R&D Partners II
invested  $5.9  million  in  the common stock of Alkermes, Inc.("Alkermes")
which  was  distributed  to investors  as  it  became  unrestricted.    The
available gain from the 118 shares of distributed Alkermes common stock has
ranged from $997 to $1,218  per $10,000 investment in R&D Partners II.  The
product  development  program  with   Genentech,   Inc.  ("Genentech")  was
terminated in 1991 when the product under development  was  deemed unlikely
to  be  commercially  viable.  R&D Partners II invested approximately  $5.0
million in the Genentech  program.   The  Partnership  retained its warrant
connected with the program which had a value of $5.4 million  when  it  was
distributed   to  investors.   The  available  gain  from  the  distributed
Genentech warrant  has  ranged  from $378 to $819 per $10,000 investment in
R&D Partners II.

R&D  Partners  II's  less successful  programs  include  those  with  Cadre
Technologies,  Inc.  ("Cadre"),   Compression  Labs,  Inc.  ("CLI"),  Focus
Surgery, Inc. ("Focus") and Rogers

<PAGE>                            Page 3

PAINEWEBBER R&D PARTNERS II, L.P.                       


Corporation ("Rogers"), all of which  have  been  either  terminated or are
near   termination.    In   the  program  with  Cadre,  product  sales   of
Ensemble<trademark> peaked at  a  low  level  and  are expected by Cadre to
continue to decline.  R&D Partners II received $843,000  in  payments  from
Cadre  based  on sales of Ensemble but expects only minimal future revenues
from this program.   R&D  Partners  II  holds a warrant to purchase 625,000
shares  of  Cadre  common  stock.  In December  1995,  Bachman  Information
Systems, Inc. ("Bachman") announced  a  merger agreement with Cadre with an
expected  closing  in  April 1996.  The Cadre  warrant  will  convert  into
Bachman warrants at a conversion  ratio  that  is yet to be finalized.  The
program with CLI suffered a serious setback when  the AT&T Videophone which
applied the technology developed by R&D Partners II,  was  not commercially
viable  due  to  pricing  and functionality problems and further  marketing
efforts for the product were  abandoned by the company.  The available gain
from the distributed CLI warrants  ranged  from  $0  to  $1,153 per $10,000
investment  in R&D Partners II.  In the program with  Focus{1},  Focus  has
announced the  signing of a letter of intent with Takai Hospital Supply Co.
for the sale of  all  of  the assets of Focus.  Simultaneously, Focus filed
for protection under Chapter  11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.  R&D Partners
II will continue to maintain its  rights  to the technology developed under
the Focus program agreement.  R&D Partners  II  holds  warrants to purchase
the  common stock of OEC Medical Systems, Inc. ("OEC") in  connection  with
the Focus  program.   If  the stock price of OEC exceeds the warrant strike
price of $12.70 per share,  the  warrants will be distributed to investors.
On the date of this writing, OEC common  stock traded at a price of $10.625
per  share  under the symbol "OXE" on the New  York  Stock  Exchange.   R&D
Partners II program with Rogers to develop multichip modules was terminated
in 1990.  In 1994, R&D Partners II sold the Rogers warrant for $723,900 and
distributed proceeds to limited partners.

In  addition  to  potential  returns  from  product  development  programs,
investors have received stock and warrants from R&D Partners II .  With the
overall improvement  in  the  value  of  biotechnology stocks in general in
1995,   the  distributed common stock and warrants  offered  investors  the
opportunity to  realize substantial gains.  In 1995, the total value of the
distributed equity from the Partnership ranged{2} from $2,338 to $9,213 per
$10,000 investment.  The value of the distributed common stock and warrants
based on the respective dates of distribution is $7,297.

Cash distributions  from  inception of the Partnership to date total $1,585
per $10,000 investment.


**FOOTNOTES**

     {1}   R&D  Partners  II originally invested in Diasonics,  Inc.  which
completed a major restructuring  in  1993  resulting  in  three  separately
traded  companies:  Focus,  Inc.,  OEC  Medical Systems, Inc. and Diasonics
Ultrasound.  R&D Partners II's product development  program  is  with Focus
Surgery,  Inc.  and  its  warrant  is  to  purchase the common stock of OEC
Medical Systems, Inc.

     {2}  The value of distributed warrants  varies depending on the market
price of the underlying common stock when an individual  investor sells the
common stock.

PAINEWEBBER R&D PARTNERS II, L.P.          


For  1995,  R&D Partners II made  cash  distributions  totalling  $130  per
$10,000 investment.   We  expect cash distributions to continue if products
from the ongoing product development  programs  are  approved for marketing
and generate revenues.

Thank you for your continued interest in R&D Partners  II.  In an effort to
further reduce expenses, we have changed the format of reporting.

Sincerely,



Eugene M. Matalene, Jr.

AMGEN BOULDER INC.

COMPANY
Amgen Boulder Inc. ("Amgen Boulder," formerly Synergen, Inc. ("Synergen")) was
formed  as  a  result  of  Amgen Inc.'s ("Amgen") acquisition of  Synergen  in
December  1994.   The company's  research  is  targeted  toward  products  for
inflammatory disorders  and  neurological  diseases.   Amgen acquired Synergen
through  a cash tender offer of $9.25 per share of all outstanding  shares  of
Synergen common  stock.   Amgen Boulder has continued the clinical development
of  Antril<trademark>  which  was  being  conducted  by  Synergen  before  the
acquisition took place.   Currently,  a  Phase  II clinical trial of Antril in
rheumatoid arthritis patients is underway in Europe.

PROGRAM
R&D Partners II committed $4.5 million to Synergen  Clinical Partners, L.P., a
$52.5 million limited partnership, formed to fund the  development  and  human
clinical  trials  of  Antril,  the  recombinant  form  of  IL-1ra, a naturally
occurring anti-inflammatory human protein that may play a significant  role in
the  treatment  of  rheumatoid  arthritis.  Synergen Clinical Partners, L.P.'s
interests in Antril are now held by Amgen Boulder.

Preliminary findings from the first Phase II clinical trial of Antril indicate
it may  have  anti-inflammatory activity and may  have a  clinical  benefit in
patients  with  a  long  history  of the disease.  A second Phase II trial for
rheumatoid  arthritis  is  currently ongoing in Europe and is  expected to  be
completed in the early 1996.

WARRANT
R&D Partners II distributed the Synergen warrant to investors  in  March 1993.
As  a  consequence  of  the  acquisition  of  the  company, there is no longer
outstanding Synergen common stock.

CENTOCOR, INC.{3}

COMPANY
Centocor  is  a  biotechnology  company  committed  to  developing  innovative
therapeutic  and  diagnostic  products to advance medical practice.   Centocor
concentrates on research, development, and manufacturing, with a technological
emphasis on monoclonal antibodies  and  peptides.  It collaborates extensively
with academic institutions and other biotechnology  companies,  which  provide
product   development,   and   with   major   healthcare  corporations,  which
commercialize Centocor products.

In  1995,  Centocor made two important announcements  regarding  the  clinical
development  of  its  lead  product,  ReoPro<trademark>,  an anticlotting drug
intended to reduce acute cardiac ischemic complications in patients undergoing
angioplasty.  Two trials testing ReoPro were separately halted  after  interim
analyses  revealed  positive  findings.   The  Epilog  trial  provided  strong
evidence for patients' protection from death and heart attack, even in routine
elective  coronary  angioplasty  procedures.   The  Capture  trial  was  being
conducted  in  refractory  unstable angina patients scheduled for percutaneous
transluminal coronary angioplasty.   Both of the interim analyses results were
reviewed  by  independent  Safety  and Efficacy  Monitoring  Committees  which
analyzed  the  data  for  the  trials' primary  endpoints:  death,  myocardial
infarction and, in the Capture trial,  the need for urgent intervention within
30 days.  The committees concluded  that  the  trials  should be stopped since
efficacy exceeded the current stopping rule.  Centocor plans to file a Product
License Application with the FDA by the end of 1996.

PROGRAM
R&D  Partners  II committed $12.0 million to Centocor Partners  III,  L.P.,  a
$54.2 million limited  partnership formed to conduct the development and human
clinical  trials  of  two  monoclonal   antibody-based  products:  ReoPro  and
Capiscint<trademark>.  Development efforts  for  Capiscint  have  been ceased.
ReoPro  is  currently being sold in the U.S. by Centocor's marketing  partner,
Eli Lilly & Co. ("Lilly").

ReoPro received  marketing  approval  from  the  FDA  in  1994  for use in the
reduction  of  acute  cardiac complications in patients undergoing angioplasty
procedures who are at high  risk for abrupt artery closure.  In 1995, Centocor
announced results of two separate trials of ReoPro targeted toward the larger,
general angioplasty market.   Centocor  plans  to make the appropriate filings
with the FDA in 1996 requesting marketing approval  of  ReoPro  with  a broad-
based  label.   R&D  Partners  II  is  entitled  to  receive payments based on
Centocor's revenues from ReoPro.

**FOOTNOTES**

     {3}In  July  1995, R&D Partners II commenced an action  against  Centocor
arising out of Centocor's transaction with Lilly.  Centocor entered into a set
of agreements with  Lilly  on  July 15, 1992, for the stated purposes of Lilly
making  an  equity  investment in Centocor  and  furthering  the  testing  and
eventual distribution  of  Centoxin,  a  Centocor  drug.   Pursuant  to  those
agreements, Lilly paid Centocor a total of $100 million, and Centocor conveyed
to  Lilly,  among  other  things, two million shares of Centocor common stock,
exclusive marketing rights  to  Centoxin,  and  an option to acquire exclusive
marketing rights to ReoPro<trademark>.  R&D Partners  II believes, among other
things,  that part of the $100 million paid by Lilly constitutes  revenues  to
Centocor from  the  licensing,  sublicensing  and/or  sale of ReoPro, and that
Centocor is obligated to pay a percentage of that part to the limited partners
of Centocor Partners III, L.P.  It is impossible to project  when the Centocor
issue  will  be  resolved.  Our intention is to fairly represent  the  limited
partners' best interests in a timely manner.

WARRANT
R&D  Partners  II distributed the Centocor warrant in March  1992.   Investors
received a warrant to purchase 116 shares of Centocor common stock per $10,000
investment in R&D  Partners  II  with  an  exercise price of $14.115 per share
through February 1993 and $16.655 per share  from  March 1993 through February
1995.   Based  on  the  closing  price  of $32.50 per share  on  the  date  of
distribution and the initial exercise price of $14.115 per share, a warrant to
purchase 116 shares of Centocor common stock  had  a  value  of  approximately
$2,133 per $10,000 unit .  In June 1992, R&D Partners II distributed 22 shares
of  Centocor  common stock per $10,000 unit which had a value of approximately
$305 on the date  of  distribution.   The  available gain from the distributed
Centocor warrant and common stock has ranged  from  $116 to $3,781 per $10,000
investment in R&D Partners II.

GENZYME CORPORATION

COMPANY
Genzyme Corporation  ("Genzyme")  is an international, diversified health care
products company with a focus on developing  innovative  products and services
for  major  unmet  medical  needs.   The  company's  General Division  markets
Ceredase<reg-trade-mark> and Cerezyme<reg-trade-mark>  replacement enzymes for
the treatment of Gaucher disease.  It also develops and  markets  surgical and
diagnostic products, genetic diagnostic services, and pharmaceuticals.

In  1995,  Genzyme  announced  positive findings from its pivotal multi-center
clinical   studies   testing   two   of    its    HA-based    surgical   aids,
Seprafilm<trademark> and Sepracoat<trademark>. In the Seprafilm study, Genzyme
found  that gynecologic surgery patients treated with Seprafilm  bioresorbable
membrane  had  37%  fewer  adhesions  to the uterus than patients who were not
treated with the membrane and in the abdominal  study,  patients  treated with
Seprafilm had 63% fewer adhesions than the untreated group.  Additionally, 51%
of  patients  treated with Seprafilm developed no adhesions to the area  where
the product was  placed.   In the Sepracoat study, testing the product for use
in abdominal, gynecologic and  cardiovascular  surgical  procedures,  the data
revealed that patients using Sepracoat had a significantly lower incidence  of
postoperative  adhesions  than  did  patients  who  received placebo.  Genzyme
submitted PMA applications with the FDA for review of  Seprafilm and Sepracoat
in  October  1995  and January 1996, respectively.  Seprafilm  is  a  HA-based
bioresorbable film which  is  applied after surgery around traumatized tissues
to prevent adhesions prior to closure  of  the  surgical site.  Sepracoat is a
second  formulation  of  Genzyme's HA-based surgical  products  used  to  coat
exposed organs during surgery.   Genzyme  was  notified  by  the  FDA that the
regulatory agency will expedite its review of the PMAs for both products.

PROGRAM
R&D  Partners II committed $5.0 million to Genzyme Development Partners,  L.P.
("GDP"), a $36.8 million limited partnership formed to conduct the development
and human  clinical  trials  of surgical products based on HA.  These products
are designed to reduce the incidence  and  severity  of  adhesions,  a serious
post-operative complication.

Under  the  terms of the GDP agreement, upon the triggering of certain events,
Genzyme has the  option  to  purchase  the  GDP  interests  under which GDP is
entitled to receive 10% of revenues from sales of the products in the U.S. and
Canada  and, under certain conditions, 6% of sales in Europe,  for  ten  years
following  the exercise of the purchase option.  In February, Genzyme proposed
an alternative offer to GDP limited partners under which Genzyme would acquire
all the assets of GDP for approximately $93.0 million.  A Special Committee of
the Independent  Directors  of  the  General  Partner  of  GDP, which includes
officers of PaineWebber, Inc., is considering the offer but,  as  of  March 6,
1996, has not endorsed or rejected the offer.

WARRANT
R&D  Partners  II  distributed  the  Genzyme warrants in June 1992.  Investors
received a warrant to purchase 22 shares  at $16.01 per share and a warrant to
purchase 10 shares at $22.91 per share, per $10,000 investment in R&D Partners
II, all exercisable through October 1996.   Based  on  the  closing  price  of
$49.50  per  share  on  the  date of distribution, the distributed warrants to
purchase 32 shares of Genzyme  common  stock  had  a  value  of  approximately
$1,003.  The available gain from the distributed Genzyme warrants  has  ranged
from $187 to $1,851 per $10,000 investment in R&D Partners II.
