                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 March 31, 2003
                                  (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 March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 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 March 31, 2004 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 audited 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, 2002.

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 MACTEC Engineering and
Consulting, Inc. ('MACTEC') identified detectable levels of tetrachloroethene
('PCE') in the soil and ground water samples collected at the site. MACTEC, 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. MACTEC, 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, MACTEC 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 ('Phase I
Activities') and would subsequently, upon review and agreement with MDE, move to
perform certain Phase II invasive sampling and analytical procedures ('Phase II
Activities') with the anticipation of entering the site into the VCP. During the
first quarter of 2002, MDE notified the Partnership that its responses to all
previous comments on Phase I Activities have been resolved. Additionally, MACTEC
completed the fieldwork for Phase II activities (under a work plan that MDE
reviewed) during 2002. The procedures and findings were documented in a Phase II
Site Characterization and Risk Assessment Report (the 'Report') that was sent to
MDE, for review, on February 13, 2003. During April 2003, MDE requested
supplemental soil-gas sampling procedures be performed. As a result of MDE's
request for supplemental procedures, the Partnership changed the estimated date
of liquidation to March 31, 2004. After the supplemental procedures are
completed and once the site is formally entered into the VCP, MDE provides
direction regarding future monitoring, assessment or remediation activities at
the site that may be required of the Partnership or a prospective buyer. As of
March 31, 2003, 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

                                       3

<Page>

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, as noted above, MDE will
provide direction regarding requirements 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, and others, albeit at a discount to take into account remediation
and monitoring costs. It is the intention of the Partnership to obtain from any
potential buyer as complete an indemnification as possible for any liability in
connection with remediation of the contamination of the property. Due to the
environmental problem and 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 $26,000 during the three months ended
March 31, 2003. The decrease was primarily the result of an additional expense
accrual of $97,000 recorded within estimated liquidation costs. This additional
accrual reflected a change in the date utilized for estimating liquidation costs
from December 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004 and accrued $7,500 for the costs of the
supplemental soil-gas sampling procedures requested by MDE (see discussion
above). The decrease was partially offset 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 $6,000 and $7,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

   In conjunction with the liquidation basis of accounting, the Partnership has
recorded an accrual as of March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 for the estimated
costs expected to be incurred to liquidate the Partnership. Included in these
estimated liquidation costs is $150,000 and $164,000 as of March 31, 2003 and
December 31, 2002, 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 March 31,
2003.

   PBP and the two 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 ('PSI'), an affiliate of PBP, owns 180
limited partnership units at March 31, 2003. PSI is an indirect wholly-owned
subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc.

subject to the Hampton Park property first being sold, and will distribute any
remaining funds at such time.

   In conjunction with the liquidation basis of accounting, the Partnership has
recorded an accrual as of March 31, 2003 for the estimated costs expected to be
incurred to liquidate the Partnership. Due to the nature of the Hampton Park
environmental issue, the date of liquidation is uncertain. However, the

MDE (see discussion above). 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 March 31, 2003.

   Net assets in liquidation decreased $26,000 during the three months ended
March 31, 2003. The decrease was primarily the result of an additional expense
accrual of $97,000 recorded within estimated liquidation costs in the Statement

Results of Operations

   As a result of the Partnership adopting the liquidation basis of accounting
as of October 1, 1996, in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States, the Partnership no longer reports results of
operations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

   Information regarding quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market
risk is not required pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

   Within the 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Managing General
Partner carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of the officers of the Managing General Partner, including the
Managing General Partner's chief executive officer and chief financial officer,
of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Partnership's disclosure
controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Managing General
Partner's chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the
Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There were no
significant changes in the Partnership's internal controls or in other factors
that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their
evaluation.

I, Chester A. Piskorowski, certify that:

   1.  I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of
       Prudential-Bache/Watson & Taylor, LTD.-2 (the 'Partnership');

   2.  Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any untrue
       statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary
       to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which
       such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period
       covered by this quarterly report;

   3.  Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
       information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all
       material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash
       flows of the Partnership as of, and for, the periods presented in this
       quarterly report;

   4.  The Partnership's other certifying officers and I are responsible for
       establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as
       defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the Partnership and
       we have:

        a)  designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure
            that material information relating to the Partnership,
            including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us
            by others within those entities, particularly during the
            period in which this quarterly report is being prepared;

        b)  evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership's disclosure
            controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to
            the filing date of this quarterly report (the 'Evaluation
            Date'); and

        c)  presented in this quarterly report our conclusions about the
            effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based
            on our evaluation as of the Evaluation Date;

   5.  The Partnership's other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based
       on our most recent evaluation, to the Partnership's auditors and the
       board of directors of the managing general partner of the Partnership:

        a)  all significant deficiencies in the design or operation of
            internal controls which could adversely affect the
            Partnership's ability to record, process, summarize and
            report financial data and have identified for the
            Partnership's auditors any material weaknesses in internal
            controls; and

        b)  any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management
            or other employees who have a significant role in the
            Partnership's internal controls; and

   6.  The Partnership's other certifying officers and I have indicated in this
       quarterly report whether or not there were significant changes in
       internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect
       internal controls subsequent to the date of our most recent evaluation,
       including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies
       and material weaknesses.
