                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Accounting Policies: 

(a) In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation have been made to the accompanying financial statements for the
six months and quarter ended June 30, 1998, and all such adjustments are of a
normal and recurring nature.

(b) For financial statement purposes, the capital accounts of the General
Partner and Limited Partners have been adjusted to appropriately reflect their
remaining economic interests as provided for in the Partnership Agreement.

2. Partnership Termination:

The Partnership Agreement provides for the dissolution of the Partnership upon
the occurrence of certain events, including the disposition of all interests in
real estate. The Partnership sold its remaining five properties and loan
receivable during 1996. The Partnership has retained a portion of the cash from
the property sales to satisfy obligations of the Partnership as well as
establish a reserve for contingencies. The timing of the termination of the
Partnership and final distribution of cash will depend upon the nature and
extent of liabilities and contingencies which exist or may arise. Such
contingencies may include legal and other fees and costs stemming from
litigation involving the Partnership including, but not limited to, the lawsuit
discussed in Note 4 of Notes to Financial Statements. Due to this litigation,
the Partnership will not be dissolved and reserves will be held by the
Partnership until the conclusion of all contingencies. There can be no
assurances as to the time frame for conclusion of these contingencies.

3. Transactions with Affiliates:

Fees and expenses, paid and payable by the Partnership to affiliates during the
six months and quarter ended June 30, 1998 were:
                                               
                                           Paid
                                   -------------------------

                                    ------------   ---------  ---------

   Reimbursement of expenses to
     the General Partner, at cost   $ 14,505       $ 6,403    $ 39,930

The General Partner made a contribution of $38,963 during 1997 in connection
with the settlement of certain litigation.

4. Contingency:

The Partnership is currently involved in a lawsuit whereby the Partnership, the
<PAGE>
General Partner and certain third parties have been named as defendants seeking
damages relating to tender offers to purchase interests in the Partnership and
nine affiliated partnerships initiated by the third party defendants in 1996.
The defendants continue to vigorously contest this action. The action has been
dismissed with prejudice and plaintiffs have filed an appeal, which is pending.
It is not determinable at this time whether or not an unfavorable decision in
this action would have a material adverse impact on the financial position of
the Partnership. The Partnership believes it has meritorious defenses to
contest the claims.

                       (An Illinois Limited Partnership)

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Balcor Pension Investors-II (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership formed
in 1981 to invest in wrap-around mortgage loans and, to a lesser extent, in
other junior mortgage loans and first mortgage loans. The Partnership raised
$85,010,000 through the sale of Limited Partnership Interests and used these
proceeds to originally fund thirty-three loans. Proceeds from the loan
repayments were used to fund three additional mortgage loans.  As of June 30,
1998, the Partnership has no loans outstanding or properties remaining in its
portfolio.

Inasmuch as the management's discussion and analysis below relates primarily to
the time period since the end of the last fiscal year, investors are encouraged
to review the financial statements and the management's discussion and analysis
contained in the annual report for 1997 for a more complete understanding of
the Partnership's financial position.

Operations
- ----------

Summary of Operations
- ---------------------

The Partnership recognized net income during the six months and quarter ended
June 30, 1998 as compared to a net loss for the same periods in 1997 primarily
due to the payment in 1997 of additional expenditures related to certain of the
Partnership's properties sold in 1996. Further discussion of the Partnership's
operations is summarized below. 

1998 Compared to 1997
- ---------------------

Unless otherwise noted, discussions of fluctuations between 1998 and 1997 refer
to both the six months and quarters ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.

Due to higher average cash balances in 1997 as a result of the investment of
proceeds received in connection with the 1996 property and loan sales prior to
distribution to Limited Partners in 1997, interest income on short-term
investments was higher during 1997 as compared to 1998.

During 1997, the Partnership paid additional expenditures related to certain of
the properties sold during 1996, which resulted in a loss from operations of
real estate held for sale in 1997.

During February 1997, the General Partner made a payment relating to the
settlement of certain litigation to original investors who previously sold
their Interests in the Partnership, which was accounted for as an
administrative expense. In addition, the Partnership incurred lower accounting
<PAGE>
and professional fees during 1998 as compared to 1997. As a result
administrative expenses decreased during 1998 as compared to 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

The cash position of the Partnership decreased by approximately $727,000 as of
June 30, 1998 when compared to December 31, 1997 primarily due to the
distribution made to Limited Partners in January 1998 from remaining available
Cash Flow reserves. The Partnership generated cash flow totaling approximately
$45,000 from its operating activities primarily as a result of the interest
income earned on its short-term investments, net of the payment of
administrative expenses. The Partnership used cash of approximately $772,000 to
fund its financing activities which consisted of the payment of distributions
to the Partners and an increase in cash principally from interest income earned
in the Early Investment Incentive Fund. 

The Partnership Agreement provides for the dissolution of the Partnership upon
the occurrence of certain events, including the disposition of all interests in
real estate. The Partnership sold its remaining five properties and one loan
receivable during 1996. The Partnership has retained a portion of the cash from
these sales to satisfy obligations of the Partnership as well as establish a
reserve for contingencies. The timing of the termination of the Partnership and
final distribution of cash will depend upon the nature and extent of
liabilities and contingencies which exist or may arise. Such contingencies may
include legal and other fees and costs stemming from litigation involving the
Partnership including, but not limited to, the lawsuit discussed in Note 4 of
Notes to the Financial Statements. Due to this litigation, the Partnership will
not be dissolved and the reserves will be held by the Partnership until the
conclusion of all contingencies. There can be no assurances as to the time
frame for conclusion of these contingencies.

In February 1997, the Partnership discontinued the repurchase of Interests from
Limited Partners. As of June 30, 1998, there was 8,136 Interests and cash of
$3,833,584 held in the Early Investment Incentive Fund.

To date, Limited Partners have received distributions totaling $1,750.21 per
$1,000 Interest. Of this amount, $1,101.08 represents Cash Flow from operations
and $649.13 represents a return of Original Capital. No additional
distributions are anticipated to be made prior to the termination of the
Partnership. However, after paying final partnership expenses, any remaining
cash reserves will be distributed. Amounts allocated to the Early Investment
Incentive Fund will also be distributed at that time.
