3 PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS Community Investment Partners III L.P., LLLP (the "Partnership") was formed to seek long-term capital appreciation by making investments in companies and other special investment situations. The Partnership will not engage in any other business or activity. The Partnership will dissolve on December 31, 2012, subject to the right of the Individual General Partners to extend the term for up to two additional two-year periods. The Partnership has elected to be a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. As a business development company, the Partnership is required to invest at least 70% of its assets in qualifying investments as specified in the Investment Company Act. The Partnership was formed on July 23, 1997, under the Missouri Uniform Partnership Law and the Missouri Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Law. CIP Management, L.P., LLLP, the Managing General Partner, is a Missouri limited liability limited partnership originally formed on October 10, 1989 as a Missouri limited partnership and registered as a limited liability limited partnership on July 23, 1997. The general partner of CIP Management, L.P., LLLP is CIP Management, Inc., an indirect subsidiary of Edward D. Jones & Co., L.P. The Partnership participated in a public offering of its limited partnership interests in the first quarter of 1998. The Partnership sold 54,340 Units of limited partnership interest and 549 Units of general partnership interest for an aggregate price of $686,111. In the fourth quarter, the Partnership executed a call to each partner for an additional aggregate amount of $686,111. After offering expenses, the Partnership received approximately $1,290,000 in proceeds available for investment. The information set forth under the captions "Investment Objectives and Policies" and "Regulation" in the Prospectus of the Partnership dated January 9, 1998, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 497(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, is incorporated herein by reference. RISKS OF UNIT OWNERSHIP The purchase and ownership of Units involve a number of significant risks and other important factors. The portfolio company investments of the Partnership involve a high degree of business and financial risk that can result in substantial losses. Among these are the risks associated with investment in companies with little operating history, companies operating at a loss or with substantial variations in operating results from period to period, companies with the need for substantial additional capital to support expansion or achieve or maintain a competitive position, companies which may be highly leveraged, companies which may not be diversified and companies in which the Partnership may be the sole or primary lender. The Partnership intends to invest in only a few companies; therefore, a loss or other problem with a single investment would have a material adverse effect on the Partnership. 4 Other risks include the Partnership's ability to find suitable investments for its funds because of competition from other entities having similar investment objectives. Risks may arise due to the significant period of time that may elapse before the Partnership has completed the selection of its portfolio company investments and the significant period of time (typically four to seven years or longer) which will elapse before portfolio company investments have reached a state of maturity such that disposition can be considered. It is unlikely that any significant distributions of the proceeds from the disposition of investments will be made until the later years of the term of the Partnership. Portfolio companies may require additional funds. There can be no assurance that the Partnership will have sufficient funds from reserves or borrowing to make such follow-up investments which may have a substantial negative impact on a portfolio company in need of additional funds or may result in a missed opportunity to increase participation in a successful operation. All decisions with respect to the management of the Partnership, including identifying and making portfolio investments, are made exclusively by the General Partners. Limited Partners must rely on the abilities of the General Partners. The key personnel of the Managing General Partner have considerable prior experience in investment banking and in structuring investments similar to those which the Partnership intends to pursue. In addition, they have prior experience in the operation of Community Investment Partners, L.P. and Community Investment Partners II, L.P., both business development companies with similar investment strategies. Ownership of the Units also entails risk because Limited Partners may not be able to liquidate their investment in the event of an emergency or for any other reason due to the substantial restrictions on transfers contained in the Partnership Agreement and the lack of a market for the resale of Units. The information set forth under the captions "Risk and Other Important Factors" (including the subsections "Risks of Investment," "Size of Partnership," "Ability to Invest Funds," "Time Required to Maturity of Investments; Illiquidity of Investments," "Need for Follow-on Investments," "Use of Leverage," "Unspecified Investments," "Reliance on Management," "New Business," "No Market for Units," "Distributions in Kind" and "Federal Income Tax Considerations") on pages 13 through 17 of the Prospectus of Partnership dated January 9, 1998, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 497(b) under the Securities Act of 1933 on January 9, 1998, is incorporated herein by this reference. (This information has been restated herein pursuant to section 64(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940). Partners should refer to the Partnership Agreement for more detailed information. EMPLOYEES The Partnership has no employees. The Managing General Partner performs management and administrative services for the operation of the Partnership. The Managing General Partner is paid an annual management fee of 1.5% of total assets, computed quarterly. The Managing General Partner is reimbursed by the Partnership for out of pocket expenses in connection with finding, evaluating, structuring, approving, monitoring and liquidating the Partnership's portfolio investments. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The Partnership does not own or lease any physical properties. 5 ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Partnership is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the period covered by this report. 6 PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS There is no established public trading market for the Limited Partnership interests. As of March 15, 2001, the total number of holders of units is 111. The number of limited partnership units outstanding is 54,340. The number of general partnership units outstanding is 549 as of March 15, 2001. Cash distributions of $35 per limited partnership unit and $124 per general partnership unit were made to the Partners during the year ended December 31, 2000. The information set forth under the captions "Partnership Distributions and Allocations" and "Transferability of Units" in the Prospectus of the Partnership dated January 9, 1998, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 497(b) under the Securities Act of 1933 is incorporated herein by reference. 7 ITEM 6.

8 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FISCAL YEAR 2000 VERSUS 1999 Net income for the year ended December 31, 2000 was $684,168, compared to net income of $1,210,918 for the year ended December 31, 1999. Net realized gains on investments for the year ended December 31, 2000 were $1,733,362, compared to $156,832 for the year ended December 31, 1999. During 2000, 23,500 shares of United Therapeutics Corporation (UTHR) common stock were sold, resulting in the $1,733,362 total gain recorded for the year. The gains resulted from a sharp increase in the market price per share during late 1999 and early 2000. The December 31, 1999 net realized loss of $156,832 consisted of a $265,615 gain on 8,000 shares UTHR common stock and a $108,783 loss caused by writing off the investment in Implemed, Inc. No investments were written off during the year ended December 31, 2000. A net unrealized loss on investments of $1,001,115 was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2000, compared to a net unrealized gain of $1,089,318 for the year ended December 31, 1999. The 1999 unrealized gain consisted of gains on 25,333 shares of UTHR due to the excess of the $46.00 December 31, 1999 share price over the basis of $3.00 per share. The 2000 unrealized loss is primarily the result of the conversion of the 1999 unrealized gains on UTHR to realized gains as the 23,500 shares were sold throughout the year ended December 31, 2000. Total expenses for the year ended December 31, 2000 were $64,547, a 14% increase over 1999 total expenses of $56,812. Within total expenses, management fees increased $5,859 (26%) as a direct result of increases in total assets between 1999 and 2000. There were two partnership distributions made during the year. The first distribution was $25 per share for limited and general partners. The second distribution was $10 per share for limited partners and $99 per share for the general partner. FISCAL YEAR 1999 VERSUS 1998 Net income for the year ended December 31, 1999 was $1,210,918, compared to a $131,780 net loss for the year ended December 31, 1998. The net increase is due to significant increases in investment gains and interest income, as well as a 57% decrease in expenses, as discussed below. The $1,089,318 unrealized gain on investments is composed entirely of an unrealized gain from holding United Therapeutics Corporation. United Therapeutics completed a public offering in May of 1999 and was trading at $46.00 per share on December 31, 1999. The Partnership's cost basis per share is $3.00. Interest income of $21,580 represents interest received on funds held in a money market account. This account was opened in early 1999 to hold proceeds received from capital contributions until they are used to purchase initial investments. The $156,832 net realized gain on sales of investments is composed of a $265,615 gain from the sale of 8,000 shares of United Therapeutics Corporation common stock, offset by a $108,783 loss 9 recorded as a result of writing off the investment in Implemed, Inc. There were no investment gains or losses recorded for the year ended December 31, 1998. Expenses decreased $75,087, or 57% from the year ended December 31, 1999. Within total expenses, management fees increased $14,502, organization costs decreased $82,363, and professional fees decreased $9,033. Independent general partners' fees and other expenses remained constant. Management fees are calculated based on asset value at the end of each quarter and the increased fees properly follow the increase in asset value over 1998. Organization costs are lower because 100% of the costs were written off in 1998 in accordance with AICPA Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-up Activities". Professional fees were lower because 1998 included some initial filing fees and legal fees related to the formation of the Partnership. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Total capital for the Partnership as of December 31, 2000, was $1,165,563. This consisted of $1,167,075 in Limited Partner capital and $(1,512) in General Partner capital. Net income of $ 684,168 for 2000 was allocated in the amount of $642,128 to the Limited Partners and in the amount of $42,040 to the General Partner. At December 31, 2000, the Partnership had $60,465 in cash and cash equivalents. During the first quarter of 2000, the Partners' Capital Accounts became equal to their Adjusted Capital Contributions. According to 4.2.2(c) of the Partnership agreement, any future profits of the Partnership will be allocated 90% to the limited partners and 10% to the general partner. Profits previously earned were allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the general partner. 10 Item 8. INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY FINANCIAL DATA

Financial Statement Schedules: All financial statement schedules are omitted because they are not applicable or the required information is shown in the financial statements or notes thereto. 11 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To the Partners of Community Investment Partners III, L.P., LLLP We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Community Investment Partners III, L.P., LLLP (a Missouri limited partnership), including the schedule of portfolio investments, as of December 31, 2000, and the related statements of operations, cash flows and changes in partnership capital for the year then ended. 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 audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2000, by correspondence with the custodian. 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. As discussed in Note 3, the financial statements include investment securities valued at $918,547 (79 percent of net assets) whose values have been estimated by the Managing General Partner in the absence of readily ascertainable market values. However, because of the inherent incertainty of valuation, the General Partner's estimated values may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for the securities and the differences could be material. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Community Investment Partners III, L.P., LLLP, as of December 31, 2000, and the results of its operations, cash flows, and the changes in its partnership capital for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP St. Louis, Missouri February 16, 2001 12 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS To the Partners of Community Investment Partners III, L.P., LLLP In our opinion, the statements of financial condition, including the schedule of portfolio investments, as of December 31, 1999 and the related statements of operations, of cash flows and of changes in partnership capital for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1999 present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Community Investment Partners III, L.P., LLLP (the "Partnership") at December 31, 1999 and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. We have not audited the financial statements of Community Investment Partners III, L.P. for any period subsequent to December 31, 1999.

22 COMMUNITY INVESTMENT PARTNERS III L.P., LLLP NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. GENERAL Partnership Organization ------------------------ Community Investment Partners III L.P., LLLP (the "Partnership") was formed on July 23, 1997, under the Missouri Uniform Partnership Law and the Missouri Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Law. CIP Management, L.P., LLLP, the Managing General Partner, is a Missouri limited liability limited partnership originally formed on October 10, 1989 as a Missouri limited partnership and elected to register as a limited liability limited partnership on July 23, 1997. The general partner of CIP Management, L.P., LLLP is CIP Management, Inc., an indirect subsidiary of Edward D. Jones & Co., L.P. Business -------- The Partnership elected to be a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. As a business development company, the Partnership is required to invest at least 70% of its assets in qualifying investments as specified in the Investment Company Act. The Managing General Partner is responsible for making the Partnership's investment decisions. The Partnership will seek long-term capital appreciation by making investments in companies and other special investment situations. The Partnership is not permitted to engage in any other business or activity. The Partnership will dissolve on December 31, 2012, subject to the right of the Individual General Partners to extend the term for up to two additional two-year periods. Risk of Ownership ----------------- The purchase and ownership of Partnership Units involve a number of significant risks and other important factors. The portfolio company investments of the Partnership involve a high degree of business and financial risk that can result in substantial losses. Among these are the risks associated with investing in companies with little operating history, companies operating at a loss or with substantial variations in operating results from period to period, companies with the need for substantial additional capital to support expansion or achieve or maintain a competitive position, companies which may be highly leveraged, companies which may not be diversified and companies in which the Partnership may be the sole or primary lender. The Partnership intends to invest in only a few companies; therefore, a loss or other problem with a single investment could have a material adverse effect on the Partnership. 23 2. ALLOCATION OF PARTNERSHIP PROFITS AND LOSSES Generally, profits will be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners until the Partners' Capital Accounts equal their undistributed Capital Contributions. Thereafter, profits will be allocated 90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partners in an amount sufficient to cause their Capital Accounts to equal an amount equal to (i) two times their Capital Contributions less (ii) cumulative distributions pursuant to paragraph 4.1 and paragraph 9.2.2 of the Partnership Agreement, at which time profits will be allocated 80% to the Limited Partners and 20% to the General Partners. Generally, losses will be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners; provided, however, that losses will be allocated 80% to the Limited Partners and 20% to the General Partners to the extent of any prior allocation of profits which were made to the Partners on an 80%/20% basis. Next, losses will be allocated 90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partners to the extent any prior allocations of profits were made to the Partners on an 90%/10% basis. Thereafter, losses, if any, will be allocated to those Partners who bear the economic risk of loss. Partners should refer to the information set forth under the caption "Partnership Distribution and Allocations" in the Prospectus of the Partnership dated January 9, 1998, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 497(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, for more specific information. 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Cash and Cash Equivalents ------------------------- All short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. Investment Transactions ----------------------- Portfolio investments are carried at a fair value as obtained from outside sources or at a value determined quarterly by the Managing General Partner under the supervision of the Independent General Partners. Until significant developments affecting an investment provide a basis for revaluation, cost approximates fair market value. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuation for those portfolio investments with a fair value that is not readily ascertainable, the estimated values used may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for the securities. Investments in securities traded on a national securities exchange will be valued at the latest reported sales price on the last business day of the period. If no sale has taken place, the securities will be valued at the last bid price. If no bid price has been reported, or if no exchange quotation is available, the securities will be valued at the quotation obtained from an outside broker. Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Income is recorded on an accrual basis. Use of Estimates ---------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 24 Organizational Costs -------------------- Total organizational and offering expenses for the Partnership totaled $213,052, of which, $130,689 were paid by an affiliate. The remaining $82,363 of organization costs were expensed in 1998 in accordance with AICPA Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-up Activities." Income Taxes ------------ Income taxes have not been provided for as the Partnership is a limited partnership and each partner is liable for its own tax payments. Allocation of Partnership profits and losses for tax purposes is based upon taxable income which may differ from net income for financial reporting primarily due to differences between book and tax accounting for portfolio investments. Distributions ------------- When excess cash, if any, becomes available, it is the Partnership's intent to make distributions on an annual basis. All distributions are subject to the sole discretion of the Managing General Partner and the Independent General Partners. 25 4. PER UNIT INFORMATION There is no market for the Limited Partnership interests. Per Unit Information is as follows:
