                                   (Unaudited)

Note 1. General.

        The  accompanying  unaudited  condensed  financial  statements have been
prepared by the  Partnership in accordance  with generally  accepted  accounting
principles, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. In the opinion of Management,  all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring  accruals)  considered  necessary  for a fair  presentation  have been
included. Although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make
the information  presented not misleading,  it is suggested that these condensed
financial  statements be read in conjunction  with the financial  statements and
the notes included in the Partnership's  Financial Statement,  as filed with the
SEC in the latest annual report on Form 10-K.

Note 2. Reclassification.

        Reclassification  -  Certain  1995  amounts  have been  reclassified  to
conform to the 1996 presentation.

Note 3. Notes Receivable.

        Impaired Notes Receivable.  At June 30, 1996, the recorded investment in
notes that are considered to be impaired under  Statement No. 114 was $1,746,000
for which the related  allowance  for losses is $358,000.  The average  recorded
investment  in  impaired  loans  during the six months  ended June 30,  1996 was
approximately $890,000.

        The activity in the allowance for losses on notes receivable  during the
six months ended June 30, is as follows:

                                               1996            1995

Note 4. Income Taxes.

        Federal  and state  income  tax  regulations  provide  that taxes on the
income  or loss of the  Partnership  are  reportable  by the  partners  in their
individual income tax returns. Accordingly, no provision for such taxes has been
made in the accompanying financial statements.

        Phoenix  Concept  Cablevision,  Inc. (The  Subsidiary)  is a corporation
subject to state and  federal tax  regulations.  The  Subsidiary  reports to the
taxing  authority on the accrual basis.  When income and expenses are recognized
in different  periods for  financial  reporting  purposes than for tax purposes,
deferred taxes are provided for such differences using the liability method.

Note 5. Net Income (Loss) and Distributions per Limited Partnership Unit.

        Net income and distributions per limited  partnership unit were based on
the limited  partners' share of net income and  distributions,  and the weighted
average  number of units  outstanding of 379,583 for the six month periods ended
June  30,  1996  and  1995.  For  purposes  of  allocating   income  (loss)  and
distributions to each individual limited partner, the Partnership  allocates net
income (loss) and  distributions  based upon each respective  limited  partner's
ending capital account balance.

            PHOENIX LEASING CASH DISTRIBUTION FUND II AND SUBSIDIARY


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

Results of Operations

      Phoenix Leasing Cash Distribution Fund II and Subsidiary (the Partnership)
reported  net income of $177,000 and $332,000 for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1996, respectively, compared to net income of $150,000 and $473,000 for
the three and six months ended June 30, 1995, respectively.

      Total  revenues  decreased  by $81,000 and  $367,000 for the three and six
months  ended June 30,  1996,  respectively,  as compared to the same periods in
1995.  The  decrease in total  revenues  during both periods was  primarily  the
result of decreases in rental income and interest income from notes  receivable.
The decrease in rental income is  attributable to a reduction in the size of the
equipment portfolio due to the ongoing sale of equipment.  At June 30, 1996, the
Partnership  owned equipment with an aggregate  original cost of $6 million,  as
compared to $9.8 million at June 30, 1995. As the Partnership  continues to sell
equipment  upon  expiration  of the  lease  terms,  it is  anticipated  that the
equipment portfolio and rental income will continue to decrease.

      Other  factors  contributing  to the  reduction  in  total  revenues  is a
decrease in interest  income from notes  receivable for the three and six months
ended June 30,  1996,  and a decrease in gain on sale of  equipment  for the six
months  ended June 30,  1996,  as  compared  to the same  periods  in 1995.  The
decreased gain on sale of equipment during the six months ended June 30, 1996 is
due to a decrease in the sales proceeds received combined with a decrease in the
amount of equipment sold.

      Total expenses decreased by $110,000 and $209,000 during the three and six
months  ended June 30,  1996,  respectively,  as compared to the same periods in
1995. The largest decrease came from  depreciation  and lease related  operating
expenses.  Lease  related  operating  expenses  decreased  due to  decreases  in
maintenance,  administrative  and residual sharing expenses on the Partnership's
equipment  leased pursuant to a purchase  agreement with the manufacturer of the
equipment.  These expenses decreased as a result of the decrease in the revenues
received  from  this  equipment.  Depreciation  decreased  as the  result  of an
increasing  portion of the Partnership's  equipment lease portfolio reaching the
end of its depreciable life.

Joint Ventures:

      The Partnership  reported a small decrease in earnings from joint ventures
of $13,000  and  $28,000  during the three and six months  ended June 30,  1996,
respectively,  as compared to the same periods in 1995. The decrease in earnings
is reflective of a decrease in rental income from one joint venture, a result of
the ongoing liquidation of the joint venture's equipment portfolio.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      The  Partnership's  primary  source of  liquidity  comes from  leasing and
financing operations.  The Partnership has contractual  obligations with lessees
and  borrowers for fixed terms at fixed  payment  amounts.  The liquidity of the
Partnership  is  dependent  upon its  success in  collecting  these  contractual
payments  owed  the  Partnership.   As  the  initial  lease  terms  expire,  the
Partnership will continue to renew,  remarket or sell the equipment.  The future
liquidity in excess of the remaining  contractual  obligations  will depend upon
the General  Partner's  success in  re-leasing  and  selling  the  Partnership's
equipment as it comes off lease.

      As another source of liquidity,  the Partnership owns a majority  interest
in a cable television company that it acquired ownership through  foreclosure on
a  defaulted  note  receivable.  This cable  television  company is  expected to
generate a positive cash flow, which will first be used for capital improvements
and  upgrades to the system in order to maximize  the value to be received  upon
the eventual sale of the system.  Any excess cash from operations or the sale of
the system will then be  distributed to the  Partnership in accordance  with its
ownership interest.

      The  Partnership  reported  net cash  generated  by leasing and  financing
activities of $347,000 during the six months ended June 30, 1996, as compared to
$472,000  during the six months ended June 30, 1995. This decrease is due to the
decline in rental income which is attributable to the reduction in the amount of
equipment  owned  by the  Partnership.  Proceeds  from  the  sale  of  equipment
decreased by $213,000  during the six months ended June 30, 1996, as compared to
the same period in 1995, due to a decrease in the amount of equipment sold.

      The  Partnership  owned  equipment held for lease with an original cost of
$1,469,000  and a net  book  value  of $0 at  June  30,  1996,  as  compared  to
$2,458,000 and $1,000,  respectively  at June 30, 1995.  The General  Partner is
actively engaged,  on behalf of the Partnership,  in remarketing and selling the
Partnership's off-lease equipment portfolio.

      The limited partners  received  distributions of $239,000 and $473,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The cumulative cash
distributions  to limited  partners are  $80,203,000 and $79,488,000 at June 30,
1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The General Partner did not receive distributions
for the six months  ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.  While the General  Partner is
entitled to receive 5% of the cash distributions, it has voluntarily elected not
to receive payment for its share of the cash distributions.

      The Partnership's  asset portfolio continues to decline as a result of the
ongoing  liquidation  of assets,  and  therefore  it is  expected  that the cash
generated from operations  will also continue to decline.  If the cash generated
by Partnership  operations  continue to decline,  the rate of cash distributions
made to limited  partners will also decline.  Distributions  declined during the
six months  ended June 30,  1996,  as compared  to the same period in 1995.  The
Partnership  made its last quarterly  distribution  on January 15, 1996.  Future
distributions  to  partners  will be made  on an  annual  basis  with  the  next
distribution scheduled to be made on January 15, 1997.

      Cash  generated  from  leasing and  financing  operations  has been and is
anticipated  to  continue to be  sufficient  to meet the  Partnership's  ongoing
operations expenses.
