                            (a limited partnership)
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 June 30, 2001
                                  (Unaudited)

A. General

   These financial statements have been prepared without audit. In the opinion
of Prudential-Bache Properties, Inc. ('Managing General Partner') ('PBP'), the
statements of net assets as of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 contain all
adjustments necessary to state fairly such information in accordance with the
liquidation basis of accounting. Prudential-Bache/Watson & Taylor, Ltd.-2 (the
'Partnership') first adopted the liquidation basis of accounting as of October
1, 1996. Accordingly, the net assets of the Partnership are stated at
liquidation value, i.e., the assets have been valued at their estimated fair
values, net of selling expenses, and the liabilities include estimated amounts
to be incurred through the date of liquidation of the Partnership, which is in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Due to the nature of the Hampton Park environmental issue (see further
discussion below), the date of liquidation is uncertain; however, the
Partnership has utilized a December 31, 2002 date for purposes of estimating
costs through the conclusion of liquidation reflecting the Managing General
Partner's best estimate. The actual remaining net proceeds from liquidation will
depend upon a variety of factors and are likely to differ from the estimated
amounts reflected in the accompanying financial statements.

   Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States have been omitted. It is suggested that these
financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31,
2000.

B. Partnership Liquidation

   In accordance with a consent statement dated September 17, 1996, the limited
partners approved, during October 1996, the proposed sale of all eight
miniwarehouse facilities owned by the Partnership to Public Storage, Inc.
('Public') and the liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership.

   Seven of the eight properties were sold to Public during December 1996. The
Partnership continues to own the Hampton Park property located in Capitol
Heights, Maryland as it was not sold to Public after Phase I and Phase II
Environmental Site Assessments performed during 1996 by Law Engineering and
Environmental Services, Inc. ('LAW') identified detectable levels of
tetrachloroethene ('PCE') in the soil and ground water samples collected at the
site. LAW, at the Partnership's request, reported the PCE release to the
Maryland Department of the Environment ('MDE').

   On November 21, 2000, MDE reached a determination that it was appropriate to
undertake an active remedial measure at the site. LAW, at the request of the
Partnership, submitted an application to enter the site into MDE's Voluntary
Cleanup Program ('VCP') during March 2001. During a meeting on May 16, 2001
between the Partnership, LAW and MDE, to discuss MDE's comments on the
Partnership's application, it was determined that the Partnership would perform
a non-invasive Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Update and would
subsequently, upon review and agreement with MDE, move to perform certain Phase
II invasive sampling and analytical procedures. As a result of the Partnership's
agreement to perform the Phase I and Phase II procedures, with the anticipation
of entering the site into the VCP, the Partnership changed the estimated date of
liquidation to December 31, 2002. As of June 30, 2001, the Statement of Net
Assets reflects an accrued liability of $500,000 which represents the
Partnership's best estimate of the obligation regarding the environmental issues
mentioned above. The amount includes costs associated with an active remediation
program over a five-year period. It is reasonably possible that the loss
exposure will be in excess of the amount accrued and will be material to the
Partnership and may possibly change in the near future. However, it is uncertain
at this time what will ultimately be required to resolve the environmental issue
at the property.

   The General Partners intend to offer the Hampton Park property to a select
group of potential buyers which specialize in the purchase of contaminated
properties, albeit at a discount. It is the intention of the Partnership to
obtain from any potential buyer as complete an indemnification for any liability
in connection with remediation of the contamination of the property as possible.
Due to the environmental problem and

                                       3

MDE oversight, it is uncertain when any such sale could be consummated. The
Partnership's liquidation and dissolution will proceed upon the sale of the
Hampton Park property.

   Net assets in liquidation decreased $1,000 and $111,000 during the six and
three months ended June 30, 2001, respectively. These decreases resulted from an
additional accrual of $216,000 made during the quarter ended June 30, 2001 which
is reflected within estimated liquidation costs in the Statement of Net Assets
as of June 30, 2001. This additional accrual reflected a change in the date
utilized for estimating liquidation costs from September 30, 2001 to December
31, 2002 and accrued $46,000 for the costs of Phase I and Phase II procedures to
be performed (see discussion above), and was offset, in part, by income from
operations of the Hampton Park property, and to a lesser extent, interest
income.

C. Related Parties

   PBP and its affiliates perform services for the Partnership which include,
but are not limited to: accounting and financial management, transfer and
assignment functions, asset management, investor communications, printing and
other administrative services. PBP and its affiliates receive reimbursements for
costs incurred in connection with these services, the amount of which is limited
by the provisions of the Partnership Agreement.

   Affiliates of Messrs. Watson and Taylor, the individual General Partners,
also perform certain administrative and monitoring functions on behalf of the
Partnership for which they receive cost reimbursement.

   Additionally, Watson & Taylor Management, Inc., an affiliate of the
individual General Partners and the Partnership's property manager, receives
4.5% of the property's gross revenues (as defined in the management agreement)
as a management fee. Such management fees totalled $13,000 for both the six
months ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000 and totalled $7,000 and $6,000 for
the three months then ended, respectively.

   In conjunction with the liquidation basis of accounting, the Partnership has
recorded an accrual as of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 for the estimated
costs expected to be incurred to liquidate the Partnership. Included in these
estimated liquidation costs is $208,000 and $161,000 as of June 30, 2001 and
December 31, 2000, respectively, expected to be payable to the General Partners
and their affiliates during the anticipated remaining liquidation periods. See
Notes A and B for a further discussion regarding the Partnership's estimated
liquidation costs. The actual charges to be incurred by the Partnership will
depend primarily upon the length of time required to liquidate the Partnership's
remaining net assets, and may differ from the amounts accrued as of June 30,
2001.

   PBP and the individual General Partners of the Partnership own 258, 130 and
130 equivalent limited partnership units, respectively. PBP receives funds from
the Partnership, such as General Partner distributions and reimbursement of
expenses, but has waived all of its rights resulting from its ownership of
equivalent limited partnership units. Accordingly, the 258 units owned by PBP
are not part of the 51,560 limited and equivalent units which receive
distributions and allocations of the Partnership's profits and losses.

   Prudential Securities Incorporated, an affiliate of PBP, owns 180 limited
partnership units at June 30, 2001.
