                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Accounting Policy:

Mortgage servicing fees have been reclassified and are included in
administrative expenses during 1995. This reclassification has also been made
to the previously reported 1994 financial statements to conform with the
classification used in 1995. This reclassification has not changed the 1994
results. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation have been made to the accompanying statements for the quarter
ended March 31, 1995, and all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring
nature.

2. Transactions with Affiliates:

Fees and expenses paid and payable by the Partnership to affiliates during the

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Balcor Equity Pension Investors-II A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") is a limited partnership formed in 1984 to make first mortgage
loans and to invest in and operate income-producing real property. The
Partnership raised $234,896,750 through the sale of Limited Partnership
Interests and utilized these proceeds to fund seven loans and acquire five real
property investments and a minority joint venture interest in one additional
real property. From 1987 through 1993, the Partnership acquired three
properties through foreclosure on loans and accepted prepayments on three
additional loans. As of March 31, 1995, the Partnership has one loan
outstanding and operates eight properties and its minority joint venture
interest.

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 1994 for a more complete understanding of
the Partnership's financial position.

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

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

The Partnership's net income increased during the quarter ended March 31, 1995
as compared to the same period in 1994. Further discussion of the Partnership's
operations is summarized below.

1995 Compared to 1994
- - ---------------------

Higher interest rates resulted in an increase in interest income on short-term
investments during the quarter ended March 31, 1995 when compared to the same
period in 1994. 

Participation in income/loss of joint venture with an affiliate reflects the
Partnership's share of property operations at the Pacific Center Office
Buildings. Due to a decrease in expenses associated with lower leasing
activity, and lower utility costs, income was generated at this property during
the first quarter of 1995 resulting in participation in income of joint venture
with an affiliate during the quarter ended March 31, 1995 as compared to
participation in loss during the same period in 1994.

As a result of a decrease in expenses associated with lower leasing activity at
the 100 Ashford Center, Ammendale - Phase I and Westech 360 office buildings,
property operating expense decreased during the quarter ended March 31, 1995 as
compared to the same period in 1994. This decrease was partially offset by
higher expenses associated with leasing activity at the 1275 K Street Office
Building and the Ross Plaza Shopping Center.
<PAGE>

A refund of 1992 taxes was received in the first quarter of 1994 from the local
taxing authority for the 1275 K Street Office Building due to a decrease in the
assessed tax value of this property. This refund caused an increase in real
estate tax expense during the quarter ended March 31, 1995 as compared to the
same period in 1994.

The Westech 360 and 1275 K Street office buildings are owned through joint
ventures with affiliates. Primarily as a result of the refund of real estate
taxes at the 1275 K Street office building in the first quarter of 1994, the
affiliates' income participation decreased during the quarter ended March 31,
1995 as compared to the same period in 1994.

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

The cash position of the Partnership increased at March 31, 1995 as compared to
December 31, 1994.The cash flow provided by the Partnership's operating
activities includes cash flow from the operations of the properties, mortgage
payments received on the loan and interest income on short-term investments,
which are partially offset by the payment of administrative expenses. Financing
activities consisted of the quarterly distributions to the partners. The
Partnership is retaining cash reserves in anticipation of future leasing costs
at several of the Partnership's commercial properties.

During the quarters ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, all of the Partnership's
properties, except the Pacific Center Office Buildings (in which the
Partnership holds a minority joint venture interest), generated positive cash
flow. The Pacific Center Office Buildings, which generated positive cash flow
during the first quarter of 1995, generated a marginal cash flow deficit during
the first quarter of 1994. The improvement is due to expenses incurred during
the first quarter of 1994 related to leasing activity and lower utility costs.
The Partnership defines cash flow generated from its properties as an amount
equal to the property's revenue receipts less property related expenditures. As
of March 31, 1995, occupancy rates of the Partnership's commercial properties
ranged from 92% to 100%, except for the Bingham Farms - Phase V Office Building
which was 74% occupied. The low occupancy at Bingham Farms - Phase V Office
Building is a result of the relocation of a major tenant during the third
quarter of 1994. The Partnership is currently working to re-lease this space.
The occupancy rate of Spalding Bridge Apartments was 96%.  Many rental markets
continue to remain extremely competitive; therefore, the General Partner's
goals are to maintain high occupancy levels while increasing rents where
possible and to monitor and control operating expenses and capital improvement
requirements at the properties.
<PAGE>

In April 1995, the Partnership paid $1,577,085 ($1.30 per Taxable Interest and
$1.73 per Tax-exempt Interest) to Limited Partners representing the quarterly
distribution for the first quarter of 1995. The level of this distribution was
consistent with the amount distributed to Limited Partners for the previous
quarter. In addition, during April 1995, the Partnership paid $131,424 to the
General Partner, representing its quarterly distribution for the first quarter
of 1995 and made a contribution of $43,808 to the Repurchase Fund. To date,
including the April 1995 distribution, Limited Partners have received
distributions aggregating approximately $101 per $250 Taxable Interest, of
which $75 represents Net Cash Receipts and $26 represents Net Cash Proceeds,
and $126 per $250 Tax-exempt Interest, of which $100 represents Net Cash
Receipts and $26 represents Net Cash Proceeds. The General Partner expects that
the cash flow from property operations and debt service payments on the funded
mortgage loan should enable the Partnership to continue making quarterly
distributions to Limited Partners. However, the level of future distributions
will be dependent on the amount of cash flow generated from property operations
and the receipts from the mortgage loan, as to which there can be no
assurances.

Inflation has several types of potentially conflicting impacts on
real estate investments. Short-term inflation can increase real estate
operating costs which may or may not be recovered through increased rents
and/or sales prices, depending on general or local economic conditions. In the
long-term, inflation can be expected to increase operating costs and
replacement costs and may lead to increased rental revenues and real estate
values.
