NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Partnership's
financial position as of September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 and the
results of its operations, its cash flows and partners' capital for the interim
periods ended September 30, 1999 and 1998.  These adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature.

     See notes to financial statements included in the Partnership's 1998 Annual
Report on Form 10-K for additional information relating to the Partnership's
financial statements.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
- ----------------------------------

     New England Life Pension Properties II; A Real Estate Limited Partnership
(the "Partnership") is a Massachusetts limited partnership organized for the
purpose of investing primarily in newly constructed and existing income
producing real properties.  It primarily serves as an investment for qualified
pension and profit sharing plans and other entities intended to be exempt from
Federal income tax.  The Partnership commenced operations in June 1984 and
acquired six real estate investments through 1986. The Partnership sold its last
remaining real estate asset in October 1998 and therefore intends to liquidate
and dissolve in 1999.

NOTE 2 - CAPITAL ALLOCATION
- --------------------------

     In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, $846,680 was distributed to
the General Partner during the first quarter of 1999 based on the Partnership's
historical performance.  Upon liquidation of the Partnership, the General
Partner is not required to refund the Partnership for any negative capital
balance related to such distribution.  As the Partnership intends to liquidate
and dissolve in 1999, $846,680 was allocated from the Limited Partners' capital
balance to the General Partner's capital balance during the second quarter of
1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Partnership completed its offering of units of limited partnership
interest in November, 1984.  A total of 39,917 units were sold.  The Partnership
received proceeds of $36,296,995, net of selling commissions and other offering
costs, which have been used for investment in real estate and the payment of
related acquisition costs, or retained as working capital reserves. The
Partnership made six real estate investments; all investments have been sold,
one in 1993, two in 1996, two in 1997 and one in 1998.  Capital of $49,513,047
($1,240.40 per limited partnership unit) has been returned to the limited
partners through September 30, 1999 as a result of sales and similar
transactions.

     At September 30, 1999, the Partnership had $1,106,114 in cash and cash
equivalents, which is being retained primarily as a reserve in the event of any
claim for breach of a representation or warranty in connection with the sale of
the Case Communication property on October 13, 1998, and as an additional
reserve in connection with the liquidation of the Partnership.  Due to the sale
of the Partnership's last investment, the General Partner has elected not to
make any further distributions until all Partnership expenses have been paid or
reconciled.  The Partnership intends to liquidate and dissolve in late 1999. On
January 28, 1999, the Partnership made an initial liquidating distribution in
the aggregate amount of $1,693,360.  Of this distribution, $846,680 was
distributed to investors who are part of the Partnership's Early Investor
Incentive Program (the "Program") in the amount of $62.32 per limited
partnership unit.  The remaining $846,680 was paid to the General Partner, as
its share of the initial liquidating distribution in accordance with the terms
of the Program.

Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure
- ------------------------------

     The Year 2000 Issue is a result of computer programs being written using
two digits rather than four to define the applicable year.  Computer programs
that have date-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year
1900 rather than the year 2000.  This could result in a system failure or
miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among other
things, a temporary inability to process transactions or engage in normal
business operations.

     The Partnership relies on AEW Capital Management L.P. ("AEW Capital
Management"), the parent of AEW Real Estate Advisors, Inc., to generate
financial information and to provide other services, which are dependent on the
use of computers.  The Partnership has obtained assurances from AEW Capital
Management that:

     .  AEW Capital Management has developed a Year 2000 Plan (the "Plan")
        consisting of five phases: inventory, assessment, testing,
        remediation/repair and certification.

     .  As of September 30, 1998, AEW Capital Management had completed the
        inventory and assessment phases of this Plan and had commenced the
        testing and remediation/repair of internal systems.

     .  AEW Capital Management concluded the internal testing,
        remediation/repair and certifications of its Plan in June 1999.

     .  AEW Capital Management successfully participated in industry-wide
        testing in August 1999.

     .  AEW Capital Management believes it is ready for Year 2000. AEW Capital
        Management has advised the Partnership that being ready means that AEW
        Capital Management has tested its internal mission critical systems and
        software applications, and based upon testing conducted, AEW Capital
        Management believes that such systems and applications are prepared to
        process dates correctly through the Year 2000.

     Based upon these assurances, the Partnership has determined that it is
not necessary for it to develop a Year 2000 contingency plan.

     Because the Partnership has sold all of its real property investments, the
Partnership no longer relies on joint venture partners and/or property managers
to suppply financial and other data with respect to its real properties.
Consequently, the Partnership does not have any material provider of data other
than AEW Capital Management.

     The Partnership is subject to external forces that might generally affect
industry and commerce, such as utility or transportation company Year 2000
compliance failures and related service interruptions. Given the nature of its
operations, the Partnership will not incur any costs associated with Year 2000
compliance.  All such costs are borne by AEW Capital Management and the property
managers.

     Because the Partnership plans to liquidate and dissolve in 1999, the
Partnership does not believe its operations will be affected by the Year 2000
Issue.

Results of Operations

     As discussed above, the Partnership's last real estate investment was sold
in October 1998.  Therefore, no comparative real estate investment results for
the periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1999 are presented.

     Interest on cash equivalents and short-term investments for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1999, was $14,177 and $60,829, respectively,
compared to $37,179 and $138,546 for the same periods in 1998. The decreases of
approximately $23,000, or 62%, and $78,000, or 56%, for the comparable three and
nine month periods, respectively, are primarily due to lower investment balances
in 1999 as a result of the 1998 sale mentioned above.

Portfolio Expenses

     The Partnership management fee is 9% of distributable cash flow from
operations after any increase or decrease in working capital reserves as
determined by the general partner.  General and administrative expenses
primarily consist of real estate appraisal, printing, legal, accounting and
investor servicing fees.

     No management fees were incurred during the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1999 concurrent with the discontinuance of operating cash
distributions, as a result of the 1998 sale discussed above.

     General and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1999 were $19,542 and $88,969, respectively, compared to $32,402
and $102,020 for the same periods in 1998. The decrease of approximately $13,000
for the comparable three and nine month periods is primarily due to 1998 legal
expenses associated with Case Communications which were subsequently reclassed
to the gain on sale in the fourth quarter of 1998.
