                        PAINEWEBBER R&D PARTNERS II, L.P.

Item 5.


         On February, 17, 2000, PaineWebber R&D Partners II, L.P., a Delaware
limited partnership (the "Registrant"), entered into an Amended and Restated
Contractual Payment Interest Purchase Agreement (the "DRI Purchase Agreement")
with Drug Royalty USA, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Purchaser"), whom the
Registrant has been advised is an affiliate of Drug Royalty Corporation, Inc.
Subject to the terms and conditions contained in the DRI Purchase Agreement, the
Registrant agreed to sell to the Purchaser seven Class A and 37 Class C Centocor
Partners III L.P. Contractual Payment Interests (the "CPIs") paid by Centocor
Inc. ("Centocor") relating primarily to the sale of Reopro(TM) (a dual receptor
glycoprotein IIB/IIIA therapeutic manufactured by Centocor) for an aggregate
purchase price of $14,722,400, subject to adjustment (which adjustments to date
will result in an aggregate purchase price of approximately $14,035,000, and
further adjustments, based on the amount of subsequent payments by Centocor, may
be made). The sale is subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions,
including the Delaware Chancery Court (the "Court") rendering an unappealable
final order resolving all settlement matters in the action entitled PaineWebber
R&D Partners, II, L.P. v. Centocor, Inc., et al. (the "Action"), the consent of
Centocor, the approval of the limited partners of the Registrant in accordance
with the terms of the Registrant's Partnership Agreement, and the consummation
of Pharma Purchase Agreement (as defined below). The DRI Purchase Agreement may
be terminated by the Registrant or the Purchaser if the closing of the sale
under the DRI Purchase Agreement does not occur prior to July 15, 2000. As
previously disclosed by the Registrant, on December 17, 1999, the Registrant had
entered into an agreement with the Purchaser for the sale of ten Class A and 50
Class C CPIs for an aggregate purchase price $18,624,765, subject to adjustment,
which agreement has been superceded by the DRI Purchase Agreement.

         On February 17, 2000, the Registrant also entered into a Contractual
Payment Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Pharma Purchase Agreement") with
Pharmaceutical Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and certain
of its affiliates (the "Pharma Purchaser"). Subject to the terms and conditions
contained in the Pharma Purchase Agreement, the Registrant agreed to sell to the
Pharma Purchaser four Class A CPIs and 19 Class C CPIs for an aggregate purchase
price of $7,638,800, subject to adjustment (which adjustments, to date, will
result in an aggregate purchase price of approximately $7,282,000, and further
adjustments, based on the amount of subsequent payments by Centocor, may be
made), which is the same per CPI purchase price as set out in the DRI Purchase
Agreement, and to distribute to the Purchaser, as the owner of approximately 28%
of the Registrant's units of limited partnership interest, an additional four
Class A CPIs and 22 Class C CPIs, representing the Pharma

Purchaser's pro rata limited partnership interest in the CPIs the Registrant has
made available to sell. The sale and distribution are subject to the fulfillment
of certain conditions, including the Court rendering an unappealable final order
resolving all settlement matters in the Action, the consent of Centocor, the
approval of the limited partners of the Registrant in accordance with the terms
of the Registrant's Partnership Agreement, the sale by certain affiliates of the
general partner of the Registrant to the Pharma Purchaser of certain royalty
streams payable by Centocor with respect to the sale of Reopro(TM) on
substantially the same terms as the sales to the Pharma Purchaser and the
Purchaser and the consummation of the DRI Purchase Agreement. The Pharma
Purchase Agreement may be terminated by the Registrant or the Pharma Purchaser
if the closing of the transactions thereunder do not occur prior to July 15,
2000.

         The Registrant currently owns 22 Class A CPIs and 111 Class C CPIs and,
assuming the sales contemplated by the DRI Purchase Agreement and the Pharma
Purchase Agreement are consummated, the Registrant will continue to own seven
Class A CPIs and 33 Class C CPIs.
