BUSINESS Krupp Realty Fund, Ltd.-III (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership formed on April 23, 1982 with The Krupp Company and The Krupp Corporation as the General Partners. The Partnership issued all of the Original Limited Partner Interests to The Krupp Company (See Note A to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 (Appendix A) of this report for additional information). The primary business of the Partnership is to invest in, operate, refinance and ultimately dispose of properties and related assets of the Partnership. The Partnership considers itself to be engaged only in the industry segment of investment in real estate. The Partnership's real estate investments are subject to some seasonal fluctuations due to changes in utility consumption and seasonal maintenance expenditures. However, the future performance of the Partnership will depend upon factors which cannot be predicted. Such factors include general economic and real estate market conditions, both on a national basis and in those areas where the Partnership's investments are located, real estate tax rates, operating expenses, energy costs, government regulations, and federal and state income tax laws. The requirements for compliance with federal, state and local regulations to date have not had an adverse effect on the Partnership's operations, and no adverse effect is anticipated in the future. The Partnership's investments in real estate are also subject to such risks as (i) competition from existing and future projects held by other owners in the areas of the Partnership's properties, (ii) possible reduction in rental income due to an inability to maintain high occupancy levels, (iii) possible adverse changes in mortgage interest rates, (iv) possible adverse changes in general economic and local conditions, such as competitive over-building, increased unemployment or adverse changes in real estate zoning laws, and the possible future adoption of rent control legislation which would not permit the full amount of increased costs to be passed on to tenants in the form of rent increases, and (v) other circumstances over which the Partnership may have little or no control. As of December 31, 1995, there were 26 full and part-time on-site personnel employed by the Partnership. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership had leveraged investments in three apartment complexes having an aggregate of 990 units. A summary of the Partnership's real estate investments is presented below. Average Occupancy Year December 31, Description Acquired Total Units 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 Brookeville Apartments Columbus, Ohio 1983 424 Units 94% 94% 93% 95% 94% Hannibal Grove Apartments Columbia, Maryland 1983 316 Units 93% 94% 88% 86% 89% Dorsey's Forge Apartments and Oakland Meadows Columbia, Maryland 1983 250 Units 94% 95% 92% 93% 89% In July 1993, in conjunction with the refinancing of Brookeville Apartments with the Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD"), the General Partners of the Partnership created Brookeville Apartments Limited Partnership ("Brookeville L.P."). The property was subsequently transferred to Brookeville L.P., with the Partnership retaining a 100% interest in Brookeville L.P.. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Partnership is a party or of which any of its property is the subject. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS None. PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS The transfer of units of Limited Partner Interest (the "Units") is subject to certain limitations contained in the Partnership Agreement. There is no public market for the Units and it is not anticipated that any such public market will develop. The number of Investor Limited Partners as of December 31, 1995 was approximately 1,700. One of the objectives of the Partnership is to generate cash available for distribution, however, there is no assurance that future operations will generate cash available for distribution. The Partnership discontinued distributions during 1990 because of insufficient operating cash flow. Subsequently, property operations improved and distributions were reinstituted and paid in August, 1994. The Partnership anticipates that distributions will continue and be paid semi-annually. The Partnership made the following distributions to its Partners during the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994: Year Ended December 31, 1995 1994 Amount Per Unit Amount Per Unit Limited Partners: Investor Limited Partner Interest (25,000 Units outstanding) $297,495 $11.90 $ 99,132 $3.97 Original Limited Partner 12,526 4,174 General Partners 3,132 1,043 $313,153 $104,349 ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA The following table sets forth selected financial information regarding the Partnership's financial position and operating results. This information should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Consolidated Financial Statements which are included in Items 7 and 8 of this report, respectively.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Liquidity and Capital Resources The Partnership's ability to generate cash adequate to meet its needs is dependent primarily upon the operations of its real estate investments. Such ability is also dependent upon the future availability of bank borrowings and the potential refinancing and sale of the Partnership's remaining real estate investments. These sources of liquidity will be used by the Partnership for payment of expenses related to real estate operations, capital expenditures, debt service and expenses. Cash Flow, if any, as calculated under Section 8.2(a) of the Partnership Agreement, will then be available for distribution to the Partners. Due to improvements in the operations of the properties and reduced debt service, the Partnership had sufficient cash flow in 1994 to reinstate distributions at a rate of $3.97 per Unit. In 1995, the distribution rate increased to $11.90 per Unit. In 1996, the distribution rate is scheduled to increase to a rate of $15.86 per Unit. Renovations at the Partnership's properties have resulted in higher occupancies and increased rental revenue through 1994 and into 1995. The Partnership is planning on spending approximately $467,000 on improvements at Brookeville in 1996 including the replacement of cabinets, countertops, carpeting and appliances, of which approximately $125,000 will be funded from the replacement reserve escrow. Dorsey's Forge and Oakland Meadows ("Dorsey's") and Hannibal Grove ("Hannibal") are budgeting $260,000 and $435,000, respectively, in improvements in 1996. Cash Flow Shown below, as required by the Partnership Agreement, is the calculation of Cash Flow of the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 1995. The General Partners provide certain of the information below to meet requirements of the Partnership Agreement and because they believe that it is an appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance. However, Cash Flow should not be considered by the reader as a substitute to net income(loss), as an indicator of the Partnership's operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Rounded to $1,000 Net loss for tax purposes $ (200,000) Items not requiring or (requiring) the use of operating funds: Tax basis depreciation and amortization 1,391,000 Principal payments on mortgage notes payable (306,000) Expenditures for capital improvements (1,064,000) Amounts released from working capital reserves 544,000 Cash Flow $ 365,000 Operations 1995 Compared to 1994 In comparing 1995 to 1994, cash flow improved primarily as a result of a reduction in capital expenditures. The increase in rental revenue during 1995 as compared to 1994 is due to increases in rental rates at all the Partnership's properties. The increase in rental rates is related to the capital improvement programs undertaken at the properties. Average occupancy at Hannibal and Dorsey's remained relatively stable during 1995 at 93% and 94%, respectively. Occupancy remained stable at Brookeville despite a fire during 1995. Total expenses of the Partnership, net of depreciation, have decreased slightly in 1995, as compared to 1994. Savings in operating expenses were due to management's efforts in reducing reimbursable costs. These savings were offset by an increase in maintenance expenses due to minor fire damage at Brookeville. Depreciation increased in 1995, as compared to 1994, as a result of capital improvement programs at the properties. The Partnership expects occupancy to remain stable in 1996, with the opportunity for a slight increase. Renovations at Brookeville will take place throughout the year, and the improved physical condition should increase the occupancy level and rental revenue at Brookeville. 1994 Compared to 1993 In comparing 1994 to 1993, the increase in cash flow was primarily due to increased rental revenue and a reduction in interest expense. The increase in rental revenue in 1994, as compared to 1993 is due primarily to an increase in rents across the Partnership's properties. Following the completion of renovations at Hannibal, the property was able to lower concessions and increase occupancy and thereby increase revenues. Average occupancy rates at Hannibal and Dorsey's during 1994 were 94% and 95%, respectively, a significant increase compared to 1993 occupancy of 88% and 92%, respectively. Vacancies have decreased during 1994 compared to 1993 due to improved market conditions and absorption of excess market supply where properties are located. The refinancings of the Partnership's properties in 1993 decreased the effective interest rates the properties were previously paying, thereby decreasing interest expense for 1994 as compared to 1993. General In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of", which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995, the Partnership has implemented policies and practices for assessing impairment of its real estate assets. The investments in properties are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation unless the General Partners believe there is a significant impairment in value, in which case a provision to write down investments in properties to fair value will be charged against income. At this time, the General Partners do not believe that any assets of the Partnership are significantly impaired. ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA See Appendix A to this report.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS To the Partners of Krupp Realty Fund, Ltd.-III: We have audited the consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule of Krupp Realty Fund, Ltd.-III and Subsidiary (the "Partnership") listed in the index on page F-2 of this Form 10-K . These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. 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. 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 provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Krupp Realty Fund, Ltd.-III and Subsidiary at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

KRUPP REALTY FUND, LTD.-III AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS A. Organization Krupp Realty Fund, Ltd.-III (the "Partnership") was formed on April 23, 1982 by filing a Certificate of Limited Partnership in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Partnership terminates on December 31, 2020, unless earlier terminated upon the sale of the last of the Partnership's properties or the occurrence of certain other events as set forth in the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership issued all of the General Partner Interests to The Krupp Company and The Krupp Corporation in exchange for capital contributions aggregating $1,000. Except under certain limited circumstances upon termination of the Partnership, the General Partners are not required to make any additional capital contributions. The Partnership has also issued all of the Original Limited Partner Interests to The Krupp Company in exchange for a capital contribution of $4,000. The Original Limited Partner is not required to make any additional capital contributions to the Partnership. The purchasers of the 25,000 units of Investor Limited Partner Interests ("Units"), at a price of $1,000 per Unit are the Investor Limited Partners. B. Significant Accounting Policies The Partnership uses the following accounting policies for financial reporting purposes, which may differ in certain respects from those used for federal income tax purposes (see Note F). Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements present the consolidated assets, liabilities and operations of the Partnership. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Risks and Uncertainties The Partnership invests its cash primarily in deposits and money market funds with commercial banks. The Partnership has not experienced any losses to date on its invested cash. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash Equivalents The Partnership includes all short-term investments with maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition in cash and cash equivalents. The cash investments are recorded at cost, which approximates current market values. Rental Revenues Leases require the payment of rent monthly in advance. Rental revenues are recorded on the accrual basis. Depreciation Depreciation is provided for by the use of the straight-line method over estimated useful lives as follows: Buildings and improvements 5 - 25 years Appliances, carpeting and equipment 3-15 years Impairment of Long-Lived Assets In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long- Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of", which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995, the Partnership has implemented policies and practices for assessing impairment of its real estate assets. The investments in properties are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation unless the General Partners believe there is a significant impairment in value, in which case a provision to write down investments in properties to fair value will be charged against income. At this time, the General Partners do not believe that any assets of the Partnership are significantly impaired. Deferred Expenses The Partnership amortizes costs incurred in connection with obtaining mortgages over the life of the related mortgage using the straight-line method. Income Taxes The Partnership is not liable for federal or state income taxes as Partnership income or loss is allocated to the Partners for income tax purposes. In the event the Partnership's tax returns are examined by the Internal Revenue Service or state taxing authority and the examination results in a change in Partnership taxable income or loss, such change will be reported to the Partners. Reclassifications Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform with current year financial statement presentation. C. Mortgage Notes Payable Mortgage notes payable collateralized by the properties of the Partnership consist of the following at December 31: 1995 1994 Brookeville Apartments $ 8,626,055 $ 8,682,345 Dorsey's Forge Apartments and Oakland Meadows 4,745,765 4,851,414 Hannibal Grove Apartments 6,454,241 6,597,923 $19,826,061 $20,131,682 Brookeville Non-recourse first mortgage note payable in the original amount of $8,755,000 to the Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD"). The mortgage note requires monthly payments of $60,600 consisting of principal and interest at the rate of 7.75% per annum. In addition, the Partnership is required to pay a monthly deposit of $5,158 to an escrow account to be used for future property replacements and improvements and a mortgage insurance premium equal to .5% per annum of the outstanding principal balance. The note matures on August 1, 2028. In accordance with HUD regulations, distributions are limited to the extent of Surplus Cash, as defined. The mortgage note payable is collateralized by the property and may not be prepaid for a period of five years and, thereafter, during the next five years beginning August 1, 1998, may be prepaid subject to a declining prepayment penalty of 5% to 1%, respectively. After August 1, 2003, there is no prepayment penalty. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Partnership for bank loans with similar terms and average maturities, the fair value of long-term debt is approximately $8,400,000. Hannibal and Dorsey's Non-recourse mortgage notes payable for Hannibal and Dorsey's of $6,800,000 and $5,000,000, respectively, at the rate of 9.25% per annum. Monthly principal and interest payments are $62,333 for Hannibal and $45,833 for Dorsey's. The notes mature on May 3, 2000 at which time all unpaid principal, $5,653,175 (Hannibal) and $4,156,746 (Dorsey's), and any accrued interest are due. The mortgage notes payable are collateralized by the respective properties. The notes may not be prepaid prior to June 1, 1998 and thereafter, may be prepaid subject to a prepayment penalty. The prepayment penalty will be the greater of 1) the principal balance multiplied by the difference between 9.4301% and the yield rate on publicly traded U.S. Treasury Securities having the closest matching maturity date as reported in the Wall Street Journal, or 2) ten percent of the then outstanding principal. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Partnership for bank loans with similar terms and average maturities, the fair value of long-term debt for Hannibal and Dorsey's is approximately $6,700,000 and $4,900,000, respectively. The annual required principal payments on the mortgage notes payable due in the five years 1996 through 2000 are $334,208, $365,482, $399,694, $437,124 and $10,020,473, respectively. During 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Partnership paid $1,719,579, $1,745,712 and $1,819,273 of interest, respectively, on its mortgage notes. D. Partners' Deficit Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, profits and losses from operations are allocated 95% to the Investor Limited Partners, 4% to the Original Limited Partner and 1% to the General Partners until such time that the Investor Limited Partners have received a return of their total invested capital plus a 9% per annum Cumulative Return on Investment thereon and thereafter, 65% to the Investor Limited Partners, 28% to the Original Limited Partner and 7% to the General Partners. Also, under the Partnership Agreement, cash distributions from operations are generally made on the same basis as the allocations of profits and losses described above. Net cash proceeds, as determined by the General Partners, resulting from transactions such as refinancing or sale of a property, are to be distributed as follows: 1) to the Investor Limited Partners until they have received a return of their total Invested Capital; 2) to the Investor Limited Partners until they have received an amount equal to their Cumulative Return on Investment in respect of all fiscal years of the Partnership; 3) to the Original Limited Partner and General Partners until they have received a return of their total Invested Capital; 4) to an unaffiliated brokerage firm (the "sales agent") to the extent of any subordinated Financial Consulting Fee then due, and; 5) any remaining Cash Proceeds shall be distributed 65% to the Investor Limited Partners, 28% to the Original Limited Partner and 7% to the General Partners. Notwithstanding anything above, the General Partners shall, under all circumstances, receive at least 1% of all distributions of net cash proceeds from a capital transaction. In general, the allocation of profits and losses are calculated based on the terms of the Partnership Agreement, as described above. However, the Internal Revenue Code contains rules which govern the allocation of tax losses among partners. For 1995, the allocation of tax losses was calculated based on these rules. Under this code, tax losses are not allocated to a limited partner if a general partner bears the economic risk for that loss. Due to operating losses incurred during 1995, the General Partners undertook additional liabilities on behalf of the Partnership. As a result, the Partnership allocated additional tax losses to the General Partners. In conjunction with the tax election referred to above, the consolidated financial statements presented herein reflect the allocation of net loss in accordance with the rules of the Internal Revenue Code. As of December 31, 1995 the following cumulative partner contributions and allocations have been made since the inception of the Partnership: Investor Original Limited Limited General Partners Partner Partners Total Capital contributions $ 25,000,000 $ 4,000 $ 1,000 $ 25,005,000 Syndication costs (3,486,600) - - (3,486,600) Cash distributions from operations (9,319,121) (392,374) (98,092) (9,809,587) Cash distributions from refinancing proceeds (5,173,000) - (52,252) (5,225,252) Net loss from operations (21,405,208) (879,355) (247,232) (22,531,795) Net income from capital transaction 9,402,667 395,901 98,976 9,897,544 Total $ (4,981,262)$(871,828) $(297,600) $ (6,150,690) E. Related Party Transactions Commencing with the date of acquisition of the Partnership's properties, the Partnership entered into agreements under which property management fees are paid to an affiliate of the General Partners for services as management agent. Such agreements provide for management fees payable monthly at a rate of 5% of the gross receipts from the properties under management. The Partnership also reimburses affiliates of the General Partners for certain expenses incurred in connection with the operation of the Partnership and its properties including accounting, computer, insurance, travel, legal and payroll; and with the preparation and mailing of reports and other communications to the Limited Partners. Amounts accrued or paid to the General Partners or their affiliates during the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 were as follows: 1995 1994 1993 Management fees $315,695 $305,599 $285,015 Expense reimbursements 156,319 280,198 285,943 Charged to operations $472,014 $585,797 $570,958 Amounts accrued or paid to affiliates of the General Partners relating to refinancing and disposition activities during the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, were $0, $0 and $42,615, respectively.
