                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

1.   ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

     The financial information as of and for the periods ended June 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
June 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 report
on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 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") 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).

(NOTE 1 CONTINUED)

     All distributions from the Partnership to the General Partner and the
limited partners of the Partnership (the "Limited Partners"; collectively, the
"Partners") have been made pro rata in accordance with their respective capital
contributions. The table below 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 $1,000 plus simple interest on such
          amount accrued at 5% per annum ("Contribution Payout"); At June 30,
          2000, Contribution Payout was $1,450 per Unit ........................     99%           1%

      II.  After Contribution Payout and until the value of the aggregate
          distributions for each Unit equals $5,000 ("Final Payout") ...........     80%          20%

     III. After Final Payout ...................................................     75%          25%
</TABLE>

     During the quarter ended June 30, 2000, the Partnership made a cash
distribution which resulted in aggregate distributions per Unit to 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 June 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 June 30,
2000, the cumulative profits of the Partnership were $922 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:

5.   PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS


     Of the Partnership's seven original Projects, the following two Projects
are currently active: a $6.0 million investment in Alkermes Clinical Partners,
L.P., a $46.0 million limited partnership formed to fund the development,
clinical testing, manufacturing and marketing of Receptor-Mediated
Permeabilizers for use in the treatment of diseases of the brain and central
nervous system by enabling the delivery of drugs across the blood brain barrier;
and a $6.0 million investment in Cephalon Clinical Partners, L.P., a $45.0
million limited partnership formed to fund the development, clinical testing,
manufacturing and marketing of Myotrophin(TM) for use in the treatment of
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and certain other peripheral neuropathies.

     If the Projects produce any product for commercial sale, the Sponsor
Companies have the option to license the Partnership's technology 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 granting such purchase options, the Partnership has received
warrants to purchase shares of common stock of certain of the Sponsor Companies.
As of June 30, 2000, the Partnership holds no warrants.

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 $8.7
million at June 30, 2000. The change of $1.9 million was due to the recognition
of net income of $13.6 million for the six months ended June 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 $8.8
million at June 30, 2000. The change of $2.0 million resulted primarily from (i)
increases in the market values of marketable securities held as of these dates
of $4.0 million, (ii) the sale of marketable securities during the six months
ended June 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 JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THE
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999:

     Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was $1.4 million
and $0.1 million, respectively. The increase in net loss resulted primarily from
an unfavorable change in revenues of $1.3 million.

     Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 were $(1.4)
million and $(0.1) million, respectively. The variance was due to an unfavorable
change in unrealized depreciation of $1.5 million offset by an increase in
interest income of $0.2 million. Unrealized depreciation of marketable
securities for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $1.5 million. At June
30, 2000 the market value of GMO was $13.875 per share as compared to a carrying
value of $15.125 per share at March 31, 2000. The Partnership recognized
unrealized depreciation of $0.6 million on its investment of 0.461 million
shares for the quarter ended June 30, 2000. Also, as of this date, the market
value of Repligen was $6.28125 per share as compared to March 31, 2000 carrying
value of $9.625 per share, thus the Partnership recognized unrealized
depreciation of $0.9 million on its investment of 0.285 million shares. Interest
income increased resulting from increased cash balances maintained by the
Partnership. Net revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 consisted of
unrealized depreciation of marketable securities and realized loss on the sale
of marketable securities aggregating $0.1 million.

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

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THE
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999:

     Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $13.6 million
resulting from the recognition of revenues of $13.7 million offset by the
recognition of expenses of $0.1 million. Net income (loss) for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 was minimal.

     During the six months ended June 30, 2000 the Partnership recognized
unrealized appreciation of marketable securities of $4.0 million, realized gain
on sale of marketable securities of $9.5 million and interest income $0.2
million. At June 30, 2000, the market value of GMO was $13.875 per share as
compared to a carrying value of $7.00 per share at December 31, 1999. The
Partnership recognized unrealized appreciation of $3.2 million on its investment
of 0.461 million shares for the six months ended

                                       11

(ITEM 2 CONTINUED)

June 30, 2000. Also, as of this date, the market value of Repligen was $6.28125
per share as compared to a weighted average carrying value of $3.37069 per share
at December 31, 1999. Thus, the Partnership recognized unrealized appreciation
of $0.8 million on its investment of 0.285 million shares. During the six months
ended June 30, 2000, the Partnership sold 0.252 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 at $5.00 per share bringing the carrying value to $49.124 per share
and sold the shares for $188.20 per share recognizing a gain of $1.0 million.
For the six months ended June 30, 1999 the Partnership recognized net unrealized
appreciation of $0.4 million offset by a net realized loss on sale of marketable
securities of this amount. The market value of GMO decreased from $3.25 per
share at December 31, 1998 to $2.75 per share at June 30, 1999, resulting in
unrealized depreciation on its investment of 0.713 million shares for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 of $0.4 million. This was offset by the increase in
market value of Medarex from $3.03125 per share at December 31, 1998 to $4.125
at June 30, 1999, resulting in unrealized appreciation on its investment of
0.723 shares for the six months ended June 30, 1999 of $0.8 million. During the
six months ended June 30, 1999, the Partnership sold its investment in
Biocompatibles with a carrying value as of December 31, 1998 of $1.2 million for
proceeds of $1.3 million and realized a gain of $0.1 million. 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 the six months ended June 30,
1999.

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