(1)   Organization

The foregoing financial  statements of Columbia Lease Income Fund II-B L.P. (the
"Partnership")  have been prepared in accordance  with the rules and regulations
of the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  for  Form  10-Q and  reflect  all
adjustments  which are,  in the  opinion  of  management,  necessary  for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.  Pursuant to such
rules and  regulations,  certain note  disclosures  which are normally  required
under  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  have  been  omitted.  It  is
recommended  that these  financial  statements be read in  conjunction  with the
Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The financial statements include an allowance for estimated losses on receivable
balances.  The  allowance  for  doubtful  accounts  is based on past  write  off
experience  and an evaluation  of potential  uncollectible  accounts  within the
current  receivable  balances.  Receivable  balances  which are determined to be
uncollectible  are charged against the allowance and subsequent  recoveries,  if
any, are credited to the allowance. At September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995,
the allowance for doubtful  accounts included in rents receivable was $6,873 and
$3,682, respectively.

(3)   Investment Property

At September 30, 1996,  the  Partnership  owned  computer  equipment with a cost
basis of $1,222,789,  subject to existing leases and equipment with a cost basis
of $163,896 in inventory  awaiting  re-lease or sale.  All purchases of computer

Results of Operations

The following discussion relates to Partnership's operations for the quarter and
nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 in comparison to the same periods in
1995.

The  Partnership  realized net income of $18,504 and $37,646 for the three month
periods  ended  September  30,  1996 and 1995,  respectively.  Rental  income on
operating leases decreased  $34,265 or 23% between the three month periods.  The
decrease is primarily  due to lower rental  rates  generated on equipment  lease
extensions  and  remarketings  resulting  after the initial  lease term expires.
Interest  income has  decreased  $196 as a result of lower average cash balances
held during the current quarter.

Total  costs and  expenses  decreased  $15,632 or 14%  between  the three  month
periods. The decrease in costs and expenses is due to a portion of the equipment
portfolio becoming fully  depreciated.  Interest expense increased $3,006 as the
Partnership  continued to paydown its long-term debt during the current quarter.
The long-term  debt balance at September 30, 1996 was $334,052  versus a balance
of $356,907 at September 30, 1995.  Management fees decreased due to the decline
in rental income.  General and  administrative  expenses  increased  between the
three  month  periods  due to an  increase  in  the  allocable  salaries  of the
partnership  accounting  and  reporting  personnel of the General  Partner.  The
Partnership  increased  its  provision  for doubtful  accounts by $4,522 for the
three  month  period  ended   September   30,  1996  to  reserve  for  potential
uncollectible accounts.

The  Partnership  realized  net income of $38,829 and $86,541 for the nine month
periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Rental income decreased
$18,670 or 5% between the nine month  periods.  The decrease in rental income is
primarily  due  to  lower  rental  rates  on  equipment  lease   extensions  and
remarketing  resulting  after initial  lease term  expires.  No earned income on
direct financing leases has been recognized during the current nine month period
due to the complete allocation of the lease payments to the fair market value of
the equipment over the lease terms in 1995.  Interest income  decreased $727 due
to the Partnership carrying lower average short-term  investment balances during
the first  nine  months  of 1996.  The net gain on sale of  equipment  decreased
during the current year due to fewer sales of equipment.

Total costs and expenses increased $14,043 or 4% between the nine month periods.
The increase in costs and expenses is primarily the result of increased interest
expense and general and  administrative  expenses.  Interest  expense  increased
$17,715,  as the Partnership  continued to paydown its long-term debt during the
nine month period ended September 30, 1996. General and administrative  expenses
increased due to an increase in allocable salaries of the partnership accounting
and reporting  personnel of the General  Partner.  The decrease in  depreciation
expense  between  the nine month  periods  is due to a portion of the  equipment
portfolio becoming fully depreciated. Management fees decreased slightly between
the nine month periods due to the decline in rental income.  As discussed in the
quarter  analysis above,  the  Partnership  increased its provision for doubtful
accounts to reserve for potential uncollectible accounts.

                  Financial Condition and Results of Operation
                                   (Unaudited)

The Partnership  recorded net income per Limited  Partnership  Unit of $0.87 and
$1.77 for the quarters  ended  September  30, 1996 and 1995,  respectively,  and
$1.82 and $4.07 for the nine month  periods  ended  September 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the nine months ended  September 30, 1996,  rental  revenue  generated  from
operating  leases  was the  primary  source  of funds  for the  Partnership.  As
equipment leases terminate, the General Partner determines if the equipment will
be extended to the same lessee,  remarketed to another lessee,  or if it is less
marketable,  sold.  This  decision is made upon  analyzing  which  option  would
generate the most favorable results.

Rental income on operating  leases will continue to decrease due to two factors.
First,  lower rental rates are obtained on the remarketing of existing equipment
after the expiration of the original lease. Typically,  the remarketed rates are
lower  due to  the  decrease  in  useful  life  of the  equipment.  Second,  the
increasing  change of technology in the computer  industry usually decreases the
demand for older  equipment,  thus increasing the  possibility of  obsolescence.
Both of these  factors  together  will cause  remarketed  rates to be lower than
original  rates.  This  decrease  however,  should not affect the  Partnership's
ability to meet its future  cash  requirements.  To the extent  that future cash
flows should be insufficient to meet the  Partnership's  operating  expenses and
liabilities,  additional  funds could be obtained through the sale of equipment,
or a reduction in the rate of cash  distributions.  Future rental  revenues from
operating  leases  amount to $548,829 and are to be received  over the next five
years.

For the nine months  ended  September  30,  1996,  the  Partnership's  investing
activities  generated  $2,888 in sales  proceeds on the sale of equipment with a
depreciated  cost  basis  of  $490.  The  Partnership  has no  material  capital
expenditure  commitments  and will not  purchase  equipment in the future as the
Partnership has reached the end of its reinvestment period.

The Partnership's  financing  activities resulted in a paydown on long-term debt
of $163,447 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The  Partnership  will
payoff its remaining long-term debt of $334,052 by 1998.

Cash  distributions  are  currently  at  an  annual  level  of  1%  per  Limited
Partnership  Unit, or $1.25 per Limited  Partnership  Unit on a quarterly basis.
For the quarter  ended  September  30,  1996,  the  Partnership  declared a cash
distribution  of $26,601,  of which $1,330 was allocated to the General  Partner
and $25,271 was allocated to the Limited  Partners.  The distribution is payable
on November 15, 1996. The Partnership  expects to continue paying  distributions
near this  level.  The effects of  inflation  have not been  significant  to the
Partnership and are not expected to have a material impact in future periods.

On  January 9, 1996,  TLP  Holding  LLC  purchased  all the common  stock of TLP
Leasing  Programs,  Inc.  from CMI Holding Co.  Under the new  ownership,  it is
expected  that TLP Leasing  Programs,  Inc. will continue to operate in the same
manner of business as it has in the past.
