                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)


1.       ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

         The financial information as of and for the periods ended September 30,
2000 and 1999 is unaudited. However, in the opinion of management of PaineWebber
R&D Partners III, L.P. (the "Partnership"), such information includes all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair
presentation. The results of operations reported for the interim periods ended
September 30, 2000, are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for
the year ended December 31, 2000. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the most recent annual report of the Partnership on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1999 and the previously issued quarterly reports
on Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2000 and June 30, 2000.

         The Partnership is a Delaware limited partnership that commenced
operations on June 3, 1991. Paine Webber Development Corporation ("PWDC" or the
"General Partner"), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Paine Webber Group
Inc., ("PWG" - see Note 7) is the general partner and manager of the
Partnership. The Partnership will terminate on December 15, 2015, unless its
term is extended or reduced by the General Partner.

         The principal objective of the Partnership has been to provide
long-term capital appreciation to investors through investing in the development
and commercialization of new products with technology and biotechnology
companies ("Sponsor Companies"), which have been expected to address significant
market opportunities. The Partnership has been engaged in diverse product
development projects (the "Projects") including product development contracts,
participation in other partnerships and investments in securities of Sponsor
Companies. Once the product development phase has been completed, the Sponsor
Companies have had the option to license and commercialize the products
resulting from the product development project, and the Partnership has had the
right to receive payments based upon the sale of such products. The Partnership
obtained warrants to purchase the common stock of Sponsor Companies to provide
additional capital appreciation to the Partnership which was not directly
dependent upon the outcome of the Projects (see Note 5).

         During the quarter ended September 30, 2000, the Partnership made no
cash distributions. During the three months ended June 30, 2000, the Partnership

reach Contribution Payout as of this date. As a result the General Partner was
allocated 20% of the total cash distribution over Contribution Payout. The total
distribution amounted to $11,672,828 ($200 per Unit; $1,672,828 to the General
Partner). At September 30, 2000, the Partnership has made cash and security
distributions, as valued on the dates of distribution, since inception of $1,483
and $98 per Unit, respectively.

         Profits and losses of the Partnership are allocated as follows: (i)
until cumulative profits and losses for each Unit equals Contribution Payout,
99% to Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner, (ii) after Contribution
Payout and until cumulative profits and losses for each unit equals Final
Payout, 80% to Limited Partners and 20% to the General Partner, and (iii) after
Final Payout, 75% to Limited Partners and 25% to the General Partner. As of
September 30, 2000, the cumulative profits of the Partnership were $926 per
Unit.

2.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

         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 generally determined on a
specific identification method and are reflected in the Statements of Operations
during the period in which the change in value occurs.

(NOTE 2 CONTINUED)

         The Partnership invests in product development contracts with Sponsor
Companies either directly or through product development limited partnerships.
The Partnership expenses product development costs when incurred by the Sponsor
Companies and such costs are reflected as expenditures under product development
projects in the accompanying Statements of Operations. Income received and/or
accrued from investments in Projects is reflected in the Statements of
Operations for the period in which the income is earned.

         Since the Partnership's warrants were currently exercisable and the
Sponsor Company's stock was publicly traded, the warrants were carried at
intrinsic value (the excess of market price per share over the exercise price
per share), which approximated fair value.

3.       MARKETABLE SECURITIES

         The Partnership held the following marketable securities at:

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
-------  -----------------------------------------------------------------------
         OF OPERATIONS.
         --------------

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Partners' capital increased from $6.8 million at December 31, 1999 to
$8.9 million at September 30, 2000. The change of $2.1 million was due to the
recognition of net income of $13.8 million for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 (as discussed in the Results of Operations below) offset by a cash
distribution to the Partners of $11.7 million.

         The Partnership's funds are invested in a money market fund and
marketable securities until cash is needed for the payment of ongoing management
and administrative expenses incurred or remittance of cash distributions to
Partners. Liquid assets increased from $6.8 million at December 31, 1999 to $8.9
million at September 30, 2000. The change of $2.1 million resulted primarily
from (i) increases in the market values of marketable securities held as of
these dates of $4.2 million, (ii) the sale of marketable securities during the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 for cash proceeds in excess of their
carrying values at December 31, 1999 of $9.5 million offset by (iii) cash
distributions to the Partners of $11.7 million.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED TO
-------------------------------------------------
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999:
------------------------------------------

         Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 was
$0.2 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The decrease in net income resulted
primarily from an unfavorable change in revenues of $3.3 million.

         Net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999
were $0.3 million and $3.6 million, respectively. The variance was due to an
unfavorable change in unrealized appreciation of marketable securities of $2.0
million and a decrease in realized gain on sale of marketable securities of $1.3
million. Unrealized appreciation of marketable securities for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 was $0.2 million and $2.2 million,
respectively. At September 30, 2000, the market value of Repligen was $7.125 per
share as compared to $6.28125 per share at June 30, 2000. The Partnership
recognized unrealized appreciation of $0.2 million on its investment of 0.285
million shares. At September 30, 1999, the market value of GMO increased from
$2.75 per share at June 30, 1999 to $5.75 per share. Accordingly, the
Partnership recognized unrealized appreciation on its investment of 0.713 shares
of $2.2 million. The market value of GMO as of June 30, 2000 and September 30,
2000 was constant at $13.875 per share. During the quarter ended September 30,
1999, the Partnership sold its investment in Medarex for aggregate proceeds of
$4.3 million. The carrying value of the investment as of June 30, 1999 was $3.0
million, and, accordingly the Partnership recognized a gain of $1.3 million.

         There were no material variances in expenses for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999.

------------------------------------------------
THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999:
-----------------------------------------

         Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 was
$13.8 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The increase of $10.3 million
resulted from a change in revenues of this amount.

         Net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 were
$13.9 million and $3.6 million, respectively. Revenues increased as a result of
a favorable change in unrealized appreciation of marketable securities of $2.4
million and increases in realized gain on sale of marketable securities of $7.8
million and interest income of $0.1 million. Unrealized appreciation of
marketable securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $4.2
million resulting from the Partnership's investments of 0.461 shares of GMO and
0.286 shares of Repligen. The market value of GMO increased from $7.00 per share
as of December 31, 1999 to $13.875 per share as of September 30, 2000.
Repligen's market value increased from $3.125 per share at December 31, 1999 to
$7.125 per share as of September 30, 2000. For the nine months ended September
30, 1999, unrealized appreciation was $1.8 million resulting from the
Partnership's investment of 0.713 shares of GMO. The market value per share as
of September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 was $5.75 and $3.25, respectively.
Realized gain on sale of marketable securities for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999 was $9.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively.

million shares of GMO for proceeds of $9.0 million (average price per share of
$35.59) with a carrying value of $1.8 million ($7.00 per share) at December 31,
1999 and recognized a gain of $7.2 million. Also, the Partnership sold 0.1
million shares of Repligen for proceeds of $1.6 million (average price per share
of $15.84) and recognized a gain of $1.3 million. The Partnership exercised its
warrant for 7,293 shares of Alkermes (recorded at its intrinsic value as of
December 31, 1999 of $44.125 per share) at $5.00 per share and sold the shares
for $188.20 per share recognizing a gain of $1.0 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000. During the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the
Partnership recognized a net gain from the sale of marketable securities
resulting primarily from its investments in Pharming and Medarex. The sale of
Pharming shares (with a carrying value of $1.3 million) for proceeds of $0.8
million resulted in a loss of $0.5 million for this period. In addition, the
Partnership recognized a gain of $2.1 million from its sale of Medarex for
proceeds of $4.3 million as compared to a carrying value at December 31, 1998 of
$2.2 million.

         There were no material variances in expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999.
