NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
- ----------------------------------------
1. General
-------
In the opinion of the Managing General Partners, the accompanying interim
financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash
flows for the interim periods presented. These statements should be read
in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1997. Allocation of income and loss to Limited and General
Partners is based on cumulative income and loss. Adjustments, if any,
are reflected in the current quarter balances.
2. Financing of Partnership Operations
-----------------------------------
The Managing General Partners expect cash received from the future
liquidation of Partnership investments and short-term borrowings will
provide the necessary liquidity to fund Partnership operations. The
Partnership may be dependent upon the financial support of the Managing
General Partners to fund operations if future proceeds are not received
timely. The Managing General Partners have committed to support the
Partnership's working capital requirements through short-term advances as
necessary.
3. Related Party Transactions
--------------------------
Related party costs are included in costs and expenses shown on the
Statements of Operations. Related party costs for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997, were as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
1998 1997
-------- --------
<S> <C> <C>
Management fees $292,496 292,496
Individual General Partners' compensation 31,420 26,800
Reimbursable operating expenses 1,046,129 521,726
Expenses absorbed by General Partners (545,365) (103,318)
</TABLE>
Certain reimbursable expenses have been accrued based upon interim
estimates prepared by the Managing General Partners and are adjusted to
actual cost periodically. There were $143 due to and $151,077 due from
related parties at September 30, 1998, and December 31, 1997,
respectively, for such reimbursable expenses.
Amounts payable for management fees were $32,500 and $64,999 at September
30, 1998, and December 31, 1997.
Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership shall reimburse
the Managing General Partners for operational costs incurred by the
Managing General Partners in conjunction with the business of the
Partnership. The Partnership may not pay nor reimburse the Managing
General Partners for operational costs that aggregate more than 1% of
total Limited Partner capital contributions. For the nine months ended
September 30, 1998, operating expenses incurred by the Managing General
Partners exceeded the limitation by $545,365, resulting in this amount
being absorbed by the Managing General Partners.
The Managing General Partners allocate operating expenses incurred in
connection with the business of the Partnership based on employee hours
incurred. In the third quarter of 1998, the Managing General Partners
reevaluated allocations to the Partnership and determined that they had
not fully recovered allocable operating expenses, primarily salary and
benefits, as permitted by the Partnership Agreement. As a result, the
Partnership was charged additional operating expenses in the third
quarter of 1998 of $174,114 consisting of $21,178 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and $152,936 for prior years. Had the
additional expenses been recorded in prior years and had the limitation
not been in effect, total operating expenses for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997 would have been $326,204 and $321,572,
respectively, and total operating expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997 would have been $1,018,519 and $777,830,
respectively.
Officers of the Managing General Partners occasionally receive stock
options as compensation for serving on the Boards of Directors of
portfolio companies. At September 30, 1998, the Partnership had an
indirect interest in Conversion Technologies, Inc., Endocare, Inc., and
Physiometrix, Inc., non-transferable options at an exercise price higher
than the current market value.

During the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Partnership funded
equity investments of $1,406,319 primarily to portfolio companies in the
medical, biotechnology and industrial/business automation industries.
Proceeds from sales of equity investments were $103,634 and repayments of
convertible and other notes receivable were $92,047. Cash distributions
from venture capital limited partnerships provided $285,504. As of
September 30, 1998, the Partnership was committed to fund additional

The Partnership has a borrowing account with a financial institution. The
borrowing capacity of this account, which fluctuates based on collateral
value, was $772,015 at September 30, 1998. The outstanding balance was
$407,805 at September 30, 1998. The Partnership's investments in Megabios

pledged as collateral. The borrowing capacity of the account was
$1,140,904 at November 9, 1998.
Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 1998, were $472,917. Future
interest income on short-term investments, proceeds from investment sales,
and Managing General Partners' support are expected to be adequate to fund
Partnership operations through the next twelve months.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Current quarter compared to corresponding quarter in the preceding year
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Net loss was $1,414,891 for the three months ended September 30, 1998, as
compared to net income of $3,956,570 for the three months ended September
30, 1997. The change was primarily due to a $5,462,346 decrease in the
change in net unrealized fair value of equity investments and a $204,104
decrease in net realized gain from equity investment sales, partially
offset by a $117,799 decrease in operating expenses.
During the three months ended September 30, 1998, the decrease in fair
value of equity investments of $1,227,706 was primarily due to decreases in
portfolio companies in the medical industry. During the same period in
1997, the increase in fair value of equity investments of $4,234,640 was
primarily due to increases in portfolio companies in the medical, computer
systems and software and biotechnology industries.
For the quarter ended September 30, 1997, realized gains from equity
investment sales of $204,104 related primarily to the common stock sale of
Bolder Technologies Corporation. There were no sales of investments in the
quarter ended September 30, 1998.
Total operating expenses were $79,277 and $197,076 for the quarters ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. As explained in Note 3 to the
financial statements, the Managing General Partners absorbed $421,041 and
$103,318 during the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Additionally, operating expenses for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 include additional expenses of $174,114 related to prior
years which were not previously charged to the Partnership. Had the
additional expenses been recorded in prior years and had the operating
expense limitation not been in effect, operating expenses for the quarters
ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 would have been $326,204 and $321,572,
respectively
Given the inherent risk associated with the business of the Partnership,
the future performance of the portfolio company investments may
significantly impact future operations.
Current nine months compared to corresponding nine months in the preceding
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
year
- ----
Net loss was $4,483,102 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998,
compared to net income of $8,361,237 during the same period in 1997. The
change was primarily due to a $11,910,925 decrease in the change in net
unrealized fair value of equity investments, a $664,299 increase in
realized losses from investment write-downs, a $624,854 decrease in net
realized gain from sales of equity investments, and a $329,021 decrease in
total income.
During the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the decrease in fair value
of equity investments of $3,371,524 was primarily due to decreases in
portfolio companies in the medical and industrial/business automation
industries, partially offset by increases in the biotechnology industry.
During the same period in 1997, the increase of $8,539,401 was primarily
due to increases in portfolio companies in the medical, microelectronics
and communications industries, partially offset by decreases in the
biomedical and industrial/business automation industries.
The Partnership recorded realized losses of $664,299 from investment write-
downs for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 related to a portfolio
company in the environmental industry. During the same period in 1997,
there were no realized losses from investment write-downs recorded.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, realized gains from sales of
equity investments were $5,305. During the same period in 1997, realized
gains of $630,159 mainly related to the common stock sale of Bolder
Technologies Corporation.
Total income was $15,526 and $344,547 for the nine months ended September
30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The decrease was due to lower notes
receivable balances and a $280,010 dividend received in 1997. No such
dividend was received in 1998.
Total operating expenses were $647,268 and $653,334 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. As explained in Note 3 to
the financial statements, the Managing General Partners absorbed $545,365
and $103,318 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Additionally, operating expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 include additional expenses of $174,114 related to prior
years which were not previously charged to the Partnership. Had the
additional expenses been recorded in prior years and had the operating
expense limitation not been in effect, operating expenses for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 would have been $1,018,519 and
$777,830, respectively. The increase is attributable to increased
administrative and investor services and investment operations expenses due
to an increased level of investment monitoring activity.
The Year 2000
- -------------
The widespread use of computer programs that rely on two-digit date
programs to perform computations and decision-making functions may cause
computer systems to malfunction in the year 2000 and lead to significant
business delays and disruptions.
The Managing General Partners have completed a preliminary assessment of
the internal financial, information and operating systems which it provides
to the Partnership. Implementation and testing of necessary system
modifications is in progress and will be completed well before December 31,
1999. The Managing General Partners are also monitoring the progress of
software vendors and third-party processors on which they rely, as well as
the progress of portfolio companies in which the Partnership has made
significant investments.
The Managing General Partners do not expect the cost of the internal system
modifications to be material to the Partnership's financial statements.
