REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Partners
Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P.
     We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P. - Series 15 through Series 19, in total and for each series, as of March 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of operations, changes in partners’ capital and cash flows for the total partnership and for each of the series for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of certain operating limited partnerships which investments represent $728,741 and $1,411,770 of the total partnership assets as of March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $(593,912), $(1,029,722) and $(1,183,870) of the total partnership loss for the years ended March 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively; of the assets for Series 15 as of March 31, 2007 and 2006, $289,968 and $470,219, respectively, and of the loss for Series 15 for the years ended March 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, $(117,013), $(371,366) and $(342,864) respectively; of the assets for Series 16 as of March 31, 2007 and 2006, $0 and $0, respectively, and of the loss for Series 16 for the years ended March 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, $0, $0, and $(255,186), respectively; of the assets for Series 17 as of March 31, 2007 and 2006, $240,014 and $468,682, respectively, and of the loss for Series 17 for the years ended March 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, $(202,389), $(350,453) and $(271,167) respectively; of the assets for Series 18 as of March 31, 2007 and 2006, $22,873 and $143,473, respectively, and of the loss for Series 18 for the years ended March 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, $(120,600), $(120,686) and $(187,413), respectively; and of the assets for Series 19 as of March 31, 2007 and 2006, $175,886 and $329,396, respectively, and of the loss for Series 19 for the years ended March 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, $(153,510), $(187,217) and $(127,240), respectively. Those statements were audited by other auditors, whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to those operating limited partnerships, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.
      We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Partnership has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal controls over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence

supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
     In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P. - Series 15 through Series 19, in total and for each series, as of March 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the total partnership and for each of the series for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
     Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules listed under Item 15(a) in the index are presented for the purpose of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and are not part of the basic financial statements. These schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, based on our audit and the reports of other auditors, fairly state in all material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005
NOTE A — ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund III L.P. (the “partnership” or “fund”) was formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on September 19, 1991, for the purpose of acquiring, holding, and disposing of limited partnership interests in operating limited partnerships which were organized to acquire, develop, rehabilitate, operate and own newly constructed, existing or rehabilitated apartment complexes which qualified for the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit established by the Tax Reform Act of 1986. Accordingly, the apartment complexes are restricted as to rent charges and operating methods. Certain of the apartment complexes also qualified for the Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit for their rehabilitation of a certified historic structure and are subject to the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code relating to the Rehabilitation Investment Credit. The general partner of the fund is Boston Capital Associates III L.P. and the limited partner is BCTC III Assignor Corp. (the “assignor limited partner”).
Pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, the fund filed a Form S-11 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, effective January 24, 1992, which covered the offering (the “Public Offering”) of the fund’s beneficial assignee certificates (“BACs”) representing assignments of units of the beneficial interest of the limited partnership interest of the assignor limited partner. The fund originally registered 20,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC for sale to the public in one or more series. An additional 2,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC were registered for sale to the public in one or more series on September 4, 1994. BACs sold in bulk were offered to investors at a reduced cost per BAC.
The BACs issued and outstanding in each series at March 31, 2007 and 2006 are as follows:
         
Series 15
    3,870,500  
Series 16
    5,429,402  
Series 17
    5,000,000  
Series 18
    3,616,200  
Series 19
    4,080,000  
 
       
Total
    21,996,102  
 
       
In accordance with the limited partnership agreements, profits, losses, and cash flow (subject to certain priority allocations and distributions) and tax credits are allocated 99% to the assignees and 1% to the general partner.

Investments in Operating Limited Partnerships
The fund accounts for its investments in operating limited partnerships using the equity method, whereby the fund adjusts its investment cost for its share of each operating limited partnership’s results of operations and for any distributions received or accrued. However, the fund recognizes the individual operating limited partnership’s losses only to the extent that the fund’s share of losses of the operating limited partnerships does not exceed the carrying amount of its investment and its advances to operating limited partnerships. Unrecognized losses are suspended and offset against future individual operating limited partnership income.
Under Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 98-13, after the investment account is reduced to zero, receivables due from the operating limited partnerships are decreased by the fund’s share of losses and, accordingly, a valuation allowance is recorded against the receivables. Accordingly, the partnership recorded a valuation allowance as follows:

A loss in value of an investment in an operating limited partnership other than a temporary decline is recorded as an impairment loss. Impairment is measured by comparing the investment carrying amount to the sum of the total amount of the remaining tax credits allocated to the fund and the estimated residual value of the investment. In addition, deferred acquisition costs related to each investment are evaluated for impairment when an impairment loss has reduced an investment balance to zero. Accordingly, the partnership recorded an impairment loss of $1,365,076, $11,603,236 and $18,797,540 during the years ended March 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

NOTE A — ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Investments in Operating Limited Partnerships (Continued)
Capital contributions to operating limited partnerships are adjusted by tax credit adjusters. Tax credit adjusters are defined as adjustments to operating limited partnership capital contributions due to reductions in actual tax credits from those originally projected. The fund records tax credit adjusters as a reduction in investment in operating limited partnerships and capital contributions payable.
The operating limited partnerships maintain their financial statements based on a calendar year and the fund utilizes a March 31 year-end. The fund records income and losses from the operating limited partnerships on a calendar year basis which is not materially different from income and losses generated if the operating limited partnerships utilized a March 31 year-end.
The fund records capital contributions payable to the operating limited partnerships once there is a binding obligation to fund a specified amount. The operating limited partnerships record capital contributions from the fund when received.
The fund records certain acquisition costs as an increase in its investment in operating limited partnerships. Certain operating limited partnerships have not recorded the acquisition costs as a capital contribution from the fund. These differences are shown as reconciling items in note C.
As of March 31, 2004, the partnership adopted FASB Interpretation No. 46 — Revised (“FIN 46R”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” FIN 46R provides guidance on when a company should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in its financial statements and when it should disclose information about its relationship with a VIE. A VIE is a legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets, which must be consolidated by a company if it is the primary beneficiary because it absorbs the majority of the entity’s expected losses, the majority of the expected residual returns, or both.

NOTE A — ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Investments in Operating Limited Partnerships (Continued)
Based on the guidance of FIN 46R, the operating limited partnerships in which the partnership invests in meet the definition of a VIE. However, management does not consolidate the partnership’s interests in these VIEs under FIN 46R, as it is not considered to be the primary beneficiary. The partnership currently records the amount of its investment in these partnerships as an asset in the balance sheets, recognizes its share of partnership income or losses in the statements of operations, and discloses how it accounts for material types of these investments in the financial statements.
The partnership’s balance in investment in operating limited partnerships, plus the risk of recapture of tax credits previously recognized on these investments, represents its maximum exposure to loss. The partnership’s exposure to loss on these partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying properties as well as the strength of the local general partners and their guarantee against credit recapture.
Deferred Acquisition Costs
Acquisition costs were deferred until March 31, 1995. As of April 1, 1995, the fund reallocated certain acquisition costs, common to all Series, based on a percentage of equity raised to each Series. Acquisition costs are being amortized on the straight-line method starting April 1, 1995, over 27.5 years (330 months).
Accumulated amortization as of March 31, 2007 and 2006 is as follows:
                 
    2007     2006  
Series 15
  $ 170,559     $ 162,907

Deferred Acquisition Costs (Continued)
The amortization of the deferred acquisition costs for each of the ensuing 5 years through March 31, 2012 is estimated to be $52,384 per year.
Selling Commissions and Registration Costs
Selling commissions paid in connection with the public offering are charged against the assignees’ capital upon admission of investors as assignees. Registration costs associated with the public offering are charged against assignees’ capital as incurred.
Income Taxes
No provision or benefit for income taxes has been included in these financial statements since taxable income or loss passes through to, and is reportable by, the partners and assignees individually.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents include repurchase agreements and money market accounts having original maturities at date of acquisition of three months or less. The carrying value approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
During the ordinary course of business, amounts on deposit may exceed the FDIC-insured limit.

Fiscal Year
For financial reporting purposes, the fund uses a March 31 year-end, whereas for income tax reporting purposes, the fund uses a calendar year. The operating limited partnerships use a calendar year for both financial and income tax reporting.
Net Income (Loss) per Beneficial Assignee Certificate
Net income (loss) per beneficial assignee partnership unit is calculated based upon the number of units outstanding during the year. The number of units in each series at March 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 are as follows:
         
Series 15
    3,870,500  
Series 16

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE H — CONTINGENCY
Mt. Vernon Associates, L.P., an operating limited partnership, has been notified by the IRS of certain instances of noncompliance relating to IRC Section 42 requirements. The Operating General Partner has corrected the files to the best of their ability; however, the Investment General Partner is in the process of assessing the situation. On January 9, 2003, the state agency conducted an audit and found one compliance issue, which has been corrected. The Investment General Partner continues to monitor this situation closely; however, it is not possible to determine the final result at this time. Accordingly, no adjustment has been made in the accompanying financial statements.
