NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
----------------------------------------

1.     General
       -------

Interim Financial Statements
----------------------------

In the opinion of the Managing General Partners, the accompanying interim
financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for the 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, 1999.  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.

Valuation of Investments
------------------------

Investments are valued at fair value as required by the Investment Company
Act of 1940.

Under the direction and control of the Independent General Partners, the
Managing General Partners are delegated the authority to establish
valuation procedures and periodically apply such procedures to the
Partnership's venture capital investment portfolio.  In fulfilling this
responsibility, the Managing General Partners periodically update and
revise the valuation procedures used to determine fair value in order to
reflect new events, changing market conditions, more experience with
investee companies, or additional information, any of which may require the
revision of previous estimating procedures.  The valuation procedures were
revised and updated by the Managing General Partners in the quarter ended
June 30, 2000.  A change in fair value of $24,340,376 was recognized during
the quarter ended June 30, 2000 to reflect the revisions to the valuation
methodology and is included in the "Change in net unrealized fair value" on
the Statement of Operations.

The fair value of investments in publicly traded securities is considered
to be the amount which the Partnership may reasonably expect to receive if
the investments were sold on the valuation date. Unrestricted securities
are valued at the five-day average closing sales price or bid/ask price
that is available on a national securities exchange or over-the-counter
market.  Valuation discounts of 5% to 50% are applied to securities subject
to resale restrictions resulting from Rule 144, contractual lock-ups such
as those commonly associated with underwriting agreements, or knowledge of
material non-public information and also to unrestricted securities when
the number of shares held by the Partnership and its affiliates is
substantial in relation to the average trading volume.

The fair value of all other investments is determined in good faith by the
Managing General Partners under the delegated authority of the Independent
General Partners after consideration of available, relevant information.
There is no ready market for the Partnership's investments in private
companies or unregistered securities of public companies.  Fair value is
generally defined as the amount the Partnership could reasonably expect to
receive for an investment in an orderly disposition on a current sale.
Other significant factors considered in the estimation of fair value
include the inherent illiquidity of and lack of marketability associated
with venture capital investments in private companies or unregistered
securities, the investee company's enterprise value established in the last
round of venture financing, changes in market conditions since the last
round of venture financing or since the last reporting period, the value of
a minority interest in the investee company, contractual restrictions on
resale typical of venture financing instruments, the investee company's
financial position and ability to obtain any necessary additional
financing, the investee company's performance as compared to its business
plan, and the investee company's progress towards initial public offering.
The values determined for the Partnership's investments in these securities
are based upon available information at the time the good faith valuations
are made and do not necessarily represent the amount which might ultimately
be realized which could be higher or lower than the reported fair value.

At September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the investment portfolio
included investments totaling $12,763,409 and $26,910,090, respectively,
whose fair values were established in good faith by the Managing General
Partners in the absence of readily ascertainable market values.  In
addition, investments in publicly traded securities which have been
subjected to a discount for legal, contractual or practical restrictions as
determined by the Managing General Partners amounted to $3,676,879 and
$3,649,757 at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively.
Because of the inherent uncertainty in the valuation, the values may differ
significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market
for the securities existed, and the differences could be material.

2.     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, 2000 and 1999, were as follows:

Expenses absorbed by General Partners      (552,809)       (88,226)

</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 was $67,331 due to related parties for
such reimbursable expenses at September 30, 2000, compared to $71,170 due
from related parties at December 31, 1999.

Amounts payable for management fees were $20,657 and $26,283 at September
30, 2000, and December 31, 1999, respectively.  Management fees are 1% per
annum of adjusted capital contributions.

At December 31, 1999, the Partnership had a payable of $72,496 for
investment sales proceeds due to an affiliated partnership.  These monies
were paid in the first quarter of 2000.  There were no amounts due to
affiliated partnerships at September 30, 2000.

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 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, 2000, operating expenses absorbed
by the Managing General Partners totaled $552,809.  In the corresponding
period in 1999, operating expenses absorbed totaled $88,226.

Officers of the Managing General Partners occasionally receive stock
options as compensation for serving on the Boards of Directors of portfolio
companies.  It is the Managing General Partners' policy that all such
compensation be transferred to the investing partnerships.  If the options
are non-transferable, they are not recorded as an asset of the Partnership.
Any profit from the exercise of such options will be transferred if and
when the options are exercised and the underlying stock is sold by the
officers.  Any such profit is allocated amongst the Partnership and
affiliated partnerships based upon their proportionate investments in the
portfolio company.  At September 30, 2000, the Partnership and affiliated
partnerships had an indirect interest in non-transferable Endocare, Inc.
and Physiometrix, Inc. options with a fair value of $252,149.

                                           =========              =======

The interest rate on notes receivable at September 30, 2000 ranged from 16%
to 50%.  All notes are due on demand.

During 2000, the Partnership issued notes receivable totaling $3,000,000 to
a portfolio company in the computer equipment industry in addition to the
notes receivable totaling $2,000,000 issued to the same company in the
fourth quarter of 1999.  In the second quarter of 2000, the company repaid
$1,000,000 of this amount.  Interest income on these notes for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 totals $1,354,861 and interest receivable,
which is due on demand, totals $1,446,529 at September 30, 2000.  In
determining fair value as of September 30, 2000, the Managing General
Partners gave consideration to deterioration in the company's performance
during the quarter ended September 30, 2000 as a result of business,
technical, financing and legal challenges, the company's financial position
at September 30, 2000 and its ability to obtain critical additional
financing, and, as a result, recorded a $5,446,529 decrease in the fair
value of notes and interest receivable.  The company is actively exploring
opportunities for additional financing and should they ultimately be
successful, the impact on the Partnership's fair value would likely be
positive.  Because of the inherent uncertainties involved in predicting the
outcome of the company's ability to obtain additional financing, the
estimated fair value at September 30, 2000 may differ significantly from a
value that would have been used had the outcome of the company's efforts
been known, and the difference could be material.


5.     Cash and Cash Equivalents
       -------------------------

7.     Commitments and Contingencies
       -----------------------------

The Partnership is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet
risk in the normal course of its business.  Generally, these instruments
are commitments for future equity fundings, venture capital limited
partnership investments, equipment financing commitments, or accounts
receivable lines of credit that are outstanding but not currently fully
utilized.  As they do not represent current outstanding balances, these
unfunded commitments are properly not recognized in the financial
statements.  At September 30, 2000 the Partnership had the following
unfunded commitments:

     the Limited Partners' right to vote under the Investment Company Act
     of 1940, as amended (the "Act");

(8)  Such other matters as may properly come before the Meeting or any
     adjournment thereof.

If approved, the changes proposed in Items 4 and 5 would become effective
as of January 1, 2000 and would result in additional expense to the
Partnership of approximately $144,764 and $620,000, respectively, for the
year ending December 31, 2000.


Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
         Condition and Results of Operations

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
----------------------------------------------------

The Partnership operates as a business development company under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 and makes venture capital investments in new
and developing companies.  The Partnership's financial condition is
dependent upon on the success of the portfolio companies.  There is no
ready market for many of the Partnership's investments.  It is possible
that some of its venture capital investments may be a complete loss or may
be unprofitable and that others will appear likely to become successful,
but may never realize their potential.  The valuation of the Partnership's
investments in securities for which there are no available market quotes is
subject to the estimate of the Managing General Partners in accordance with
the valuation guidance described in Note 1 to the financial statements.  In
the absence of readily obtainable market values, the estimated fair value
of the Partnership's investments may differ significantly from the values
that would have been used had a ready market existed.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, net cash used by operating
activities totaled $564,010.  The Partnership paid management fees of
$191,542 to the Managing General Partners and reimbursed related parties
for operating expenses of $257,226.  The Partnership also paid investment
sales proceeds of $72,496 to an affiliated partnership.  In addition,
$27,910 was paid to the Individual General Partners as compensation for
their services and other operating expenses of $370,857 were paid. Interest
income of $356,021 was received.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Partnership funded
equity investments of $4,609,956 primarily to portfolio companies in the
computer systems and software, communications and medical industries.
Proceeds from sales of equity investments provided cash of $20,458,593.
The Partnership funded $3,250,000 in notes receivable to portfolio
companies in the computer systems and software and industrial/business
automation industries.  Repayments of notes receivable were $1,110,465.
The Partnership received cash distributions from venture capital limited
partnerships totaling $517,544.  As of September 30, 2000, the
Partnership's unfunded commitments totaled $827,679 as discussed in Note 7
to the financial statements.  Tax distributions totaling $7,348,554 were
paid to General and Limited Partners.

Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2000, were $12,544,157.  Cash
reserves, future interest income on short-term investments and proceeds
from investment sales 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 losses were $7,397,160 and $666,535 for the quarters ended September
30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  The decrease was primarily due to a
$9,508,680 decrease in the change in net unrealized fair value of equity
investments and a $3,775,477 decrease in the change in net unrealized fair
value of notes receivable, partially offset by a $5,512,293 increase in net
realized gain from sales of equity investments, a $613,604 increase in
interest income and a $365,844 increase in net realized gain from venture
capital limited partnerships.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2000, the decrease in fair value of
equity investments of $8,425,592 was primarily due to decreases in
portfolio companies in the communications and medical industries along with
decreases in the venture capital limited partnership investments and a
decrease due to the sale of Physiometrix, Inc. common shares.  During the
same period in 1999, the increase in fair value of equity investments of
$1,083,088 was primarily due to increases in portfolio companies in the
biotechnology and medical industries.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2000, the Partnership recorded a
decrease in the fair value of notes receivable of $3,775,477 which
primarily related to a decrease in a portfolio company in the computer
equipment, systems and software industry.  There was no change in fair
value for the corresponding period in 1999.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2000, net realized gain from equity
investment sales of $3,847,202 primarily related to the sale of
Physiometrix, Inc. (See Note 3.).  During the same period in 1999, net
realized loss from equity investment sales of $1,665,091 primarily related
to the sales of the Partnership's investments in Avalon Imaging, Inc., CV
Therapeutics, Inc. and Naiad Technology, Inc.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2000, interest income of $680,655 was
primarily the result of interest earned on secured notes receivable and
higher cash balances.  During the same period in 1999, interest income was
$67,051.

Net realized gain from venture capital limited partnerships totaled
$501,583 and $135,739 in the quarters ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.  The gain represented distributions from profits of venture
capital limited partnerships.

Total operating expenses were $157,457 and $210,815 for the quarters ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  As explained in Note 2 to the
financial statements, the Managing General Partners absorbed $246,410 and
$88,226 for the quarters ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Had the limitation not been in effect, operating expenses would have been
$403,867 and $299,041 during the quarters ended September 30, 2000 and
1999, respectively.  In the second quarter of 2000, the Managing General
Partners billed the Partnership an additional $196,035 for investment
management expenses incurred by the General Partners in 1998 and 1999, but
not previously billed to the Partnership.  If these expenses had been
billed in prior years and had the expense limitation not been in effect,
operating expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 would
have been $403,867 and $317,130, respectively.  The increase is primarily
attributable to increased investment monitoring activity.

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 $6,957,935 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, as
compared to net income of $6,531,566 for the nine months ended September
30, 1999.  The decrease was primarily due to a $22,197,731 decrease in the
change in net unrealized fair value of equity investments and a $5,446,529
decrease in the change in net unrealized fair value of notes receivable,
partially offset by a $11,769,018 increase in net realized gain from sales
of equity investments, a $1,619,461 increase in interest income and a
$749,355 increase in net realized gain from venture capital limited
partnerships.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the decrease in fair value
of equity investments of $21,145,706 was primarily due to decrease in fair
value of equity investments of $22,669,324 as discussed in Note 1 to the
financial statements.  In addition, there were decreases in portfolio
companies in the communications industry and a decrease due to the sale of
Pilot Network Services, Inc. (Pilot) and Physiometrix, Inc. common shares,
partially offset by increases in the biotechnology and medical industries
along with increases in the venture capital limited partnership
investments.  During the same period in 1999, the increase in fair value of
equity investments of $1,052,025 was primarily due to increases in
portfolio companies in the biotechnology, communications and medical
industries, partially offset by a decrease due to the sale of Pilot shares.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Partnership recorded a
decrease in the fair value of notes receivable of $5,446,529, of which
$1,671,052 related to the change in valuation methodology discussed in Note
1 to the financial statements and the remainder primarily related to a
decrease in a portfolio company in the computer equipment, systems and
software industry.  There was no change in fair value for the same period
in 1999.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, realized gains from sales of
equity investments of $17,945,882 primarily related to sales of shares in
Pilot, Oxford GlycoSciences Plc, Physiometrix, Inc. and Valentis, Inc.
(See Note 3.)  During the same period in 1999, realized gains from sales of
equity investments of $6,176,864 were primarily due to the gain on the sale
of 510,000 common shares of Pilot.  This gain was partially offset by
losses on the sale of the Partnership's investments in Avalon Imaging,
Inc., CV Therapeutics, Inc., CareCentric Solutions, Inc. and Naiad
Technologies, Inc.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, interest income of $1,743,758
was primarily the result of interest earned on secured notes receivable and
higher cash balances.  During the same period in 1999, interest income was
$124,297.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Partnership recorded
net realized gains from venture capital limited partnership investments of
$1,037,585.  During the same period in 1999, there were gains of $288,230.
The gains represented distributions from profits of venture capital limited
partnerships.

Total operating expenses were $752,318 and $874,891 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  As explained in Note 2 to
the financial statements, the Managing General Partners absorbed $552,809
and $88,226 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.  Had the limitation not been in effect, operating expenses
would have been $1,305,127 and $963,117 during the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  In the second quarter of 2000,
the Managing General Partners billed the Partnership an additional $196,035
for investment management expenses incurred by the General Partners in 1998
and 1999, but not previously billed to the Partnership.  If these expenses
had been billed in prior years and had the expense limitation not been in
effect, operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and
1999 would have been $1,109,092 and $1,034,653, respectively.  The increase
is primarily attributable to increased investment monitoring activity and
the related administrative costs.
