NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)



1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

The financial information as of June 30, 2002, and for the periods ended
June 30, 2002 and 2001 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 period ended June 30, 2002, are not necessarily indicative of results to
be expected for the year ended December 31, 2002. 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, 2001 and the previously
issued quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2002.

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 UBS Americas Inc.
(formerly 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.

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 sale or change in value occurs.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The money market fund invested in by the Partnership is managed by an
affiliate of UBS PaineWebber Inc. ("PWI").

PWDC and PWI, and its affiliates, have acted in an investment banking
capacity for several of the Sponsor Companies. In addition, PWDC and its
affiliates have direct limited partnership interests in some of the same product
development limited partnerships as the Partnership.

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. As of
June 30, 2002 the Partnership is carrying these investments at zero.

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.

6. INCOME TAXES

The Partnership is not subject to federal, state or local income taxes.
Accordingly, individual Partners are required to report their distributive share
of realized income or loss on their respective federal and state income tax
returns.

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

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Partners' capital decreased from $4.7 million at December 31, 2001 to
$2.0 million at June 30, 2002 resulting from the recognition of a net loss of
$2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 (as discussed in the Results
of Operations below).

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 decreased from $4.8 million at December 31, 2001 to $2.1
million at June 30, 2002 resulting primarily from a decrease in the market
values of marketable securities held as of these dates.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, 2001:

Net income (loss) for the quarters ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 was
$(2.0) million and $2.3 million, respectively, resulting primarily from the
recognition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of marketable securities.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the Partnership recognized
unrealized depreciation of $1.9 million on its investments of 0.461 shares of
GMO and 0.285 shares of Repligen. The market value of GMO decreased from $5.80
per share as of March 31, 2002 to $2.52 per share as of June 30, 2002 resulting
in the recognition of unrealized depreciation for this period of $1.5 million.
Repligen's market value at June 30, 2002 was $2.26 per share as compared to
$3.75 per share as of March 31, 2002. The Partnership recognized unrealized
depreciation of $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002. For the
quarter ended June 30, 2001, the Partnership recognized unrealized appreciation
of $2.3 million on these same investments. GMO had a market value as of this
date of $13.55 per share as compared to $8.25 per share as of March 31, 2001.
Accordingly, the Partnership recognized unrealized appreciation of $2.4 million
for this period. The Partnership recognized unrealized depreciation of $0.1
million upon the decrease of Repligen's market value from $2.875 per share as of
March 31, 2001 to $2.40 per share at June 30, 2001.

There were no material variances in expenses for the three months
ended June 30, 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001:

For the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Partnership recognized a
net loss of $2.7 million as compared to net income of $1.7 million for this same
period in 2001. The variance results primarily from an unfavorable change in
unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of marketable securities.

The Partnership recognized unrealized depreciation of $2.6 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2002 resulting primarily from its investment
of 0.461 shares of GMO. GMO's market value decreased from $8.00 per share at
December 31, 2001 to $2.52 per share as of June 30, 2002. For this same period
ended June 30, 2001, the Partnership recognized unrealized appreciation of $1.7
million. The market value of GMO as of this date was $13.55 per share as
compared to a carrying value of $9.1875

[CONTINUED]

per share as of December 31, 2001. The Partnership recognized unrealized
appreciation of $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The market
value of Repligen decreased from $3.375 per share at December 31, 2000 to $2.40
per share at June 30, 2001 resulting in unrealized depreciation of $0.3 million
on an investment of 0.285 million shares.

There were no material variances in expenses for the six months ended
June 30, 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001.
