                                  INTRODUCTION

         This Amendment No. 2 dated December 22, 1999 supplements and amends the
Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule 13E-4 (the "Original Statement") filed
with  the   Securities   and  Exchange   Commission  on  September  2,  1999  by
NTS-Properties VII (the  "Partnership"),  as amended November 2, 1999, regarding
the offer of the  Partnership  and  ORIG,  LLC,  a  Kentucky  limited  liability

"Offerors")  to  purchase  in the  aggregate  up to 20,000  limited  partnership
interests in the Partnership. A copy of the Offer to Purchase dated September 2,
1999 and the  related  Letter of  Transmittal  (which  together  constitute  the
"Offer") were incorporated by reference in the Original Statement.

terms of the  Offer to  purchase  more  than  20,000  Interests  and all  41,652

Offerors  announced:  (i) that the Offer had terminated as of December 15, 1999,
as originally scheduled; and (ii) the final results of the Offer.

         This  Amendment   constitutes  the  final  amendment  to  the  Original
Statement in accordance with Rule 13e-4(c)(3) under the Securities  Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and General  Instruction D to Schedule
13E-4.

or any other associate or subsidiary of any such person.
