See notes to financial statements included in the Partnership's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information relating to the Partnership's financial statements. NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS - ---------------------------------- New England Life Pension Properties III; A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") is a Massachusetts limited partnership organized for the purpose of investing primarily in newly constructed and existing income producing real properties. It primarily serves as an investment for qualified pension and profit sharing plans and other entities intended to be exempt from federal income tax. The Partnership commenced operations in July, 1985 and acquired several investments through 1988. The Partnership intends to dispose of its investments within twelve years of their acquisition, and then liquidate; however, the managing general partner could extend the investment period if it is in the best interest of the limited partners.

The buildings are being depreciated over a 25 year period. NOTE 4 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT - ------------------------- Distributions of cash from operations relating to the quarter ended March 31, 1996 were made on April 25, 1996 in the aggregate amount of $468,532 ($6.78 per limited partnership unit). Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and - --------------------------------------------------------------- Results of Operations - --------------------- Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- The Partnership completed its offering of units of limited partnership interest in December, 1985. A total of 68,414 units were sold. The Partnership received proceeds of $61,950,285, net of selling commissions and other offering costs, which were invested in real estate, used to pay related acquisition costs, or retained as working capital reserves. The Partnership made nine real estate investments, six of which were sold prior to 1994. As a result of the sales, capital of $34,676,320 has been returned to the limited partners through March 31, 1996. At March 31, 1996, the Partnership had $3,452,051 in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, of which $468,532 was distributed to partners on April 25, 1996; the remainder is being retained as working capital reserves. The source of future liquidity and cash distributions to partners will be cash generated by the Partnership's investments and proceeds from the sale of investments. Distributions of cash from operations for the first quarter of 1996 and 1995 were made at the annualized rate of 5.5% and 5%, respectively, on the adjusted capital contribution. The increase in the distribution rate during 1996 results from the attainment of appropriate cash reserve levels and the stabilization of property operations. The carrying value of real estate investments in the financial statements is at depreciated cost, or if the investment's carrying value is determined not to be recoverable through expected undiscounted future cash flows, the carrying value is reduced to estimated fair market value. The fair market value of such investments is further reduced by the estimated cost of sale for properties held for sale. Carrying value may be greater or less than current appraised value. At March 31, 1996, the appraised value of each real estate investment exceeded its related carrying value; the aggregate excess was approximately $5,500,000. The current appraised value of real estate investments has been estimated by the managing general partner and is generally based on a combination of traditional appraisal approaches performed by the Partnership's advisor and independent appraisers. Because of the subjectivity inherent in the valuation process, the estimated current appraised value may differ significantly from that which could be realized if the real estate were actually offered for sale in the marketplace. Results of Operations - --------------------- Form of Real Estate Investments North Cabot Industrial Park is a wholly-owned property. Bayberry Apartments and 270 Technology Center are structured as joint ventures with real estate management/development firms. Operating Factors Occupancy at North Cabot Industrial Park decreased from 94% to 72% during the first quarter of 1996, as two tenants did not renew their leases upon expiration. (Occupancy was 58% at March 31, 1995.) Occupancy at Bayberry Apartments ended the first quarter of 1996 at 95%. (Occupancy was 92% and 91% at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1995, respectively.) Market conditions remain competitive; however, rental rates in the Gaithersburg market have increased over the past year, as supply and demand remain in equilibrium. Occupancy at 270 Technology Park remained at 98% during the first quarter of 1996. (Occupancy was 95% at March 31, 1995.) The property does not have significant lease expiration exposure over the next year. Investment Activity Interest on cash equivalents and short-term investments decreased between the comparative quarters due to lower short-term interest rates. Real estate operating results were $389,854 for the first quarter of 1996 as compared to $435,227 for the comparable quarter of 1995. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in net operating income at 270 Technology Park ($35,000) resulting from a decrease in rental income caused by lower lease rates. Net operating income at the remainder of the properties was relatively unchanged between the respective quarters. Operating cash flow decreased $84,583 or 18% between the first quarter of 1995 and 1996. The decrease in cash flow primarily resulted from changes in working capital. Portfolio Expenses The Partnership management fee is 9% of distributable cash flow from operations after any increase or decrease in working capital reserves as determined by the managing general partner. General and administrative expenses primarily consist of real estate appraisal, printing, legal, accounting and investor servicing fees. The Partnership management fee increased between the first quarter of 1995 and 1996 due to an increase in distributable cash flow. General and administrative expenses decreased by $15,737 or 23% between the respective periods. The 1995 amount includes the final settlement of professional fees associated with the ownership restructuring of the North Cabot Industrial Park investment.
