                          Notes to Financial Statements

                               September 30, 1997
                                (in Liquidation)

Note 1.           THE PARTNERSHIP

In the opinion of Glenborough  Corporation,  the managing general  partner,  the
accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments  (consisting
of only normal accruals)  necessary to present fairly the financial  position of
Outlook   Income/Growth  Fund  VIII,  A  California  Limited   Partnership  (the
"Partnership"),  as of September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, and the related
statements of operations for the three and nine months ended  September 30, 1997
and 1996, and the changes in partners'  equity  (deficit) and cash flows for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.

As of September 30, 1997, the Partnership  owned a 50% general partner  interest
in  Huntington  Breakers  Apartments,  Limited.  On October 1, 1997,  Huntington
Breakers  Apartments,  Limited ("the Breakers  Partnership") sold the Huntington
Breakers Apartment complex.  On October 31, 1997, the Breakers  Partnership paid
the  Partnership  approximately  $11,700,000 as repayment of advances,  guaranty
payments and preference amounts due to the Partnership.

With the receipt of the funds from the  Breakers  Partnership,  the  Partnership
intends  to pay off all  liabilities,  set aside a small  amount  for  potential
future  obligations  and  distribute  the  remaining  cash  to its  partners  in
accordance with the limited  partnership  agreement.  The  Partnership  plans to
distribute approximately $11,273,000,  on November 14, 1997 to its partners. The
planned  distributions  are  as  follows:  Current  Unit  holders  will  receive
approximately  $5,961,000 (based on 12,297 units at $484.71 per unit),  Deferred
Unit  holders  will receive  approximately  $4,083,000  (based on 8,424 units at
$484.71 per unit), the Growth Unit holders will receive approximately $1,116,000
(based on 14,271 units at $78.20 per unit) and the General  Partner will receive

On May 28, 1997,  the  Partnership  sold Silver Creek Plaza,  a retail  shopping
center located at 1759 East Capitol Expressway in San Jose, California to Summit
Commercial  Properties,  Incorporated,  an unrelated party, for $9,625,000.  The
sale  proceeds  were used to pay off the loan  secured  by the  property  in the
amount  of  $8,500,000  and  settlement  and  other  closing  costs,   including
transaction fees payable to the general partner.

On May 15, 1997, the note payable  secured by San Mar Plaza,  a shopping  center
located at 900 Highway 80 in San Marcos,  Texas,  matured.  Due to  unsuccessful
negotiations  with  the  lender  to  restructure  the  terms  of  the  debt  and
insufficient  equity in the Property,  the Partnership did not pay off the loan.
On July 1, 1997,  title to the San Mar Plaza  property  was  transferred  to the
lender pursuant to an agreement  between the  Partnership and the lender.  As of
July  1,  1997,  the  outstanding  loan  balance  secured  by the  Property  was
$6,436,000 and the net assets approximated $6,171,000.

Note 7.           SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

As  stated  in Note 4, on  October  1,  1997,  Huntington  Breakers  Apartments,
Limited,  a joint venture in which the  Partnership  owned a 50% general partner
interest,  sold its sole real estate asset, a 342-unit apartment complex located
in Huntington Beach,  California.  The 342-unit apartment complex was sold to an
unrelated party for $30,400,000. The sale proceeds were used to payoff the first
and second deeds of trusts,  secured by the property  totaling  $18,500,000  and
settlement  and  other  closing  costs.  Approximately,  $11,700,000  of the net
proceeds were used to pay advances, guaranty payments and preference amounts due
to the  Partnership.  With the settlement of all liabilities and distribution of
its assets, Huntington Breakers Apartments, Limited will be dissolved.

On October 31, 1997, the Breakers Partnership paid the Partnership approximately
$11,700,000.  The Partnership  intends to pay off all  liabilities,  set aside a
small amount for potential future  obligations and distribute the remaining cash
to its  partners in  accordance  with the  limited  partnership  agreement.  The
Partnership plans to distribute approximately $11,273,000,  on November 14, 1997
to its partners. The planned distributions are as follows:  Current Unit holders
will  receive  approximately  $5,961,000  (based on 12,297  units at $484.71 per
unit),  Deferred Unit holders will receive  approximately  $4,083,000  (based on
8,424  units at  $484.71  per  unit),  the  Growth  Unit  holders  will  receive
approximately  $1,116,000  (based  on 14,271  units at $78.20  per unit) and the

business affairs of the Partnership, the Partnership will be dissolved.

Item 2.           Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition 
                  and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On May 28, 1997, the  Partnership  sold Silver Creek Plaza to an unrelated party
for $9,625,000.  The sale proceeds were used to pay off the loan, secured by the
property in the amount of $8,500,000  and  settlement  and other closing  costs,
including transaction fees payable to the general partner.

The loan secured by the San Mar Plaza  property  matured on May 15, 1997. Due to
unsuccessful  negotiations  with the lender to restructure the terms of the debt
and insufficient  equity in the Property,  title to the property was transferred
to the lender pursuant to an agreement between the Partnership and the lender on
July 1, 1997.

As of September 30, 1997, the Partnership  owned a 50% joint venture interest in
a 342-unit apartment complex  (Huntington  Breakers  Apartments).  On October 1,
1997  the  Huntington  Breakers  Apartment  complex  sold for  $30,400,000.  The
Breakers Partnership used the sale proceeds to payoff the first and second deeds
of trusts secured by the property totaling  $18,500,000 and other settlement and
closing costs.  Approximately,  $11,700,000 of the net proceeds were used to pay
advances, guaranty payments and preference amounts due to the Partnership.  With
the settlement of all liabilities and  distribution of its assets,  the Breakers
Partnership will be dissolved.

With the receipt of the funds from the  Breakers  Partnership,  the  Partnership
intends  to pay off all  liabilities,  set aside a small  amount  for  potential
future  obligations  and  distribute  the  remaining  cash  to its  partners  in
accordance with the limited  partnership  agreement.  The  Partnership  plans to
distribute approximately $11,273,000,  on November 14, 1997 to its partners. The
planned  distributions  are  as  follows:  Current  Unit  holders  will  receive
approximately  $5,961,000  (based on 12,297 units at$484.71 per unit),  Deferred
Unit  holders  will receive  approximately  $4,083,000  (based on 8,424 units at
$484.71 per unit), the Growth Unit holders will receive approximately $1,116,000
(based on 14,271 units at $78.20 per unit) and the General  Partner will receive
approximately  $113,000.  Upon  winding  up  all  the  business  affairs  of the
Partnership, the Partnership will be dissolved.


Results of Operations

The $542,000 and $630,000  decreases in rental  income during the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1997 compared to the same periods in 1996 were due to
the sale of Silver  Creek Plaza on May 28, 1997 and the transfer of title of San
Mar Plaza to the lender on July 1, 1997.

The  $218,000  gain on  foreclosure  of property  included in the  Partnership's
September 30, 1997  statement of operations  resulted from the transfer of title
of San Mar Plaza to the lender on July 1, 1997.


                                 Page 12 of 15
<PAGE>

Interest and other income decreased by $6,000 and $33,000, respectively,  during
the three and nine months ended  September 30, 1997 compared to the same periods
in 1996,  as a result of a lower  average  invested cash balance of $635,000 and
$582,000  for the three and nine months  ended  September  30, 1997  compared to
$867,000 and $1,333,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996.

During the three and nine months ended  September 30, 1997 compared to the three
and nine months  ended  September  30,  1996,  operating  expenses  decreased by
$180,000  and  $142,000,  respectively,  as a result of the May 28, 1997 sale of
Silver Creek Plaza and the title transfer of San Mar Plaza to the lender on July
1, 1997.

The $599,000 loss on sale of property  included in the  Partnership's  September
30, 1997 statement of operations resulted from the sale of Silver Creek Plaza.

The decrease in interest  expense of $364,000 and $376,000  during the three and
nine months ended  September  30, 1997  compared to the same periods in 1996, is
primarily  due to the pay off of the secured  debt upon the sale of Silver Creek
Plaza and the July 1, 1997 San Mar Plaza title transfer.

Due to the cessation of depreciation  and amortization on Silver Creek Plaza and
San Mar Plaza, depreciation and amortization decreased by $127,000 and $237,000,
respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared
to the same periods in 1996.

During the three and nine months ended  September  30, 1997 compared to the same
periods in 1996, general and  administrative  expenses increased by $196,000 and
$138,000,  respectively,  as a result of increased legal fees in connection with
the  liquidation  of  the  Partnership,   offset  by  lower   professional  fees
attributable to non-recurring property appraisal fees incurred in 1996.

The income (loss) in unconsolidated  joint venture  represents the Partnership's
share of income (loss) in the  Huntington  Breakers  Apartments  joint  venture.
Huntington  Breakers  Apartments net operating  income increased during the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 compared to the same period in 1996, as a result
of the  cessation of  depreciation  on June 1, 1997 when the  apartment  complex
became  classified  as a property  held for sale,  combined  with a reduction in
interest  expense  and the  write  off of loan  fees  in  1996  attributable  to
financing arrangements obtained in July 1996.
