PART I
Item 1. Business.
--------
Copley Pension Properties VII; A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") was organized under the Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts on October 3, 1988, to invest primarily in to-be-
developed, newly constructed and existing income-producing real properties.
The Partnership was initially capitalized with contributions of $2,000
in the aggregate from Seventh Copley Corp. (the "Managing General Partner") and
ICOP Associates Limited Partnership (the "Associate General Partner")
(collectively, the "General Partners") and $10,000 from Copley Real Estate
Advisors, Inc. (the "Initial Limited Partner"). The Partnership filed a
Registration Statement on Form S-11 (the "Registration Statement") with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on October 17, 1988, with respect to a public
offering of 80,000 units of limited partnership interest at a price of $1,000
per unit (the "Units") with an option to sell up to an additional 80,000 Units
(an aggregate of $160,000,000). The Registration Statement was declared
effective on January 9, 1989.
The first sale of Units occurred on April 27, 1989, at which time the
Initial Limited Partner withdrew its contribution from the Partnership.
Investors were admitted to the Partnership thereafter at monthly closings; the
offering terminated on September 30, 1990 and the last group of initial
investors was admitted to the Partnership on October 10, 1990. As of December
31, 1990, a total of 42,076 Units had been sold, a total of 5,965 investors had
been admitted as limited partners (the "Limited Partners") and a total of
$41,956,740 net of discounts had been contributed to the capital of the
Partnership. The remaining 117,924 units were deregistered on February 20, 1991.
As of December 31, 1998, the Partnership had four real property
investments, one of which was acquired in 1995. Three additional investments
have been sold: a research and development facility in 1991 and an apartment
complex; each of in 1994 and 1998. Sales proceeds have been distributed in the
amount of $237 per Unit as a result of these sales. In addition, capital of $21
per Unit has been distributed as a result of a discretionary reduction in cash
reserves. The Partnership has no current plan to renovate, improve, or further
develop any of its existing real property. In the opinion of the Managing
General Partner of the Partnership, the properties are adequately covered by
insurance.
The Partnership has no employees. Services are performed for the
Partnership by the Managing General Partner and affiliates of the Managing
General Partner.
A. Retail Center in San Jose, California ("Parkmoor Plaza").
--------------------------------------------------------
On September 20, 1989, the Partnership acquired a 75% interest in a joint
venture formed with SBC & D Co., Inc. As of December 31, 1998, the Partnership
had contributed $9,786,330 to the capital of the joint venture out of a maximum
commitment of $10,000,000. The joint venture agreement entitles the Partnership
to receive a preferred return on its invested capital at the rate of 10% per
annum. During the first 120 months following the date of the joint venture
agreement, to the extent sufficient cash flow is not available therefor, up to
1% of such preferred return may accrue and bear interest at the rate of 10% per
annum, compounded monthly. The balance of the preferred return will be payable
monthly on a current basis. Commencing with the 121st month following the date
of the joint venture agreement, the full amount of the preferred return will be
payable monthly on a current basis. The joint venture agreement also entitles
the Partnership to receive 75% of remaining cash flow and 75% of sale and
refinancing proceeds following the return of the Partnership's investment.
<PAGE>
The joint venture owns a leasehold interest pursuant to a ground lease
in 13.791 acres of land and a fee interest in three retail buildings totaling
approximately 149,825 square feet in San Jose, California. The ground lease
terminates on November 12, 2014 and provides for an annual rental of $73,230
payable in equal monthly installments. The joint venture has the option to
extend the lease for an additional 25 years. The rent for the extended term
will be determined in accordance with provisions set forth in the lease. The
joint venture also has the option to purchase the land upon notice from the
owner of its intention to sell to an unrelated third party and its acceptance of
a bona fide offer. The property has been fully converted from industrial to
retail use. As of December 31, 1998, this retail center was 96% leased.
B. Office/Warehouse Building in Houston, Texas ("Drilex").
------------------------------------------------------
On December 18, 1990, the Partnership acquired a 75% interest in a
joint venture formed with an affiliate of The Trammell Crow Company ("Trammel
Crow"). The Partnership had contributed $2,294,713 to the capital of the joint
venture. The joint venture agreement entitled the Partnership to receive a
preferred return on its invested capital at the rate of 11% per annum, which was
payable currently until the Partnership had received an aggregate of $56,115.
Upon completion of construction the preferred return would accrue, if sufficient
cash flow was not available therefor. In addition, upon rental of the building,
the joint venture was also obligated to pay to the Partnership the amount of
$2,755 on a monthly basis. This amount represented full amortization over a ten
year period of the cost of special tenant improvements and was applied against
both the contributed capital and the preferred return. The joint venture
agreement also entitled the Partnership to receive 50% of the net proceeds of
sales after return of its capital if the building was sold within one year of
the tenant's occupancy for a cash price of greater than $2,800,000. Under any
other circumstances, the Partnership's share of sale proceeds was 75%. As of
January 1, 1993, the Partnership acquired Trammell Crow's equity interest in the
joint venture for $70,000.
The Partnership owns approximately 3.4 acres of land in Houston, Texas,
improved with an approximately 53,750 square foot single story office/warehouse
building constructed in 1991. As of December 31, 1998, the building was 100%
occupied by a single tenant under a long-term lease that expires in August 2001.
C. Industrial Building in Itasca, Illinois ("Prentiss Copystar").
-------------------------------------------------------------
On May 23, 1991, the Partnership acquired a 23.25% interest in a joint
venture formed with Copley Pension Properties VI; A Real Estate Limited
Partnership, an affiliate of the Partnership (the "Affiliate") with a 51.75%
interest, and with an affiliate of Prentiss Properties, Ltd. As of December 31,
1998, the Partnership had contributed $1,027,386 to the capital of the joint
venture out of a maximum commitment of $1,029,084, of which $690,224 is
characterized as Senior Capital and $308,725 is characterized as Junior Capital.
The joint venture agreement entitles the Partnership to receive a preferred
return, compounded monthly, of 11% per annum of which the return on Senior
Capital will be payable currently and the return on Junior Capital may accrue
and compound monthly if sufficient cash flow is not available therefor. If the
Senior Capital is repaid prior to the termination of the joint venture, the
Partnership would be entitled to receive a return on the Senior Capital at the
lesser of 11% per annum or the interest rate for treasury bonds having a
maturity date coinciding with the termination of the joint venture, plus 75
basis points. The joint venture agreement also entitles the Partnership to
receive 23.25% of the net proceeds of sales and financings after return of its
capital and 23.25% of cash flow remaining after payment of the preferred
return.
<PAGE>
The joint venture owns approximately 3.75 acres of land in Itasca,
Illinois and during 1991 completed construction thereon of an approximately
70,535 square foot single-story industrial building. As of December 31, 1998,
the building was 100% leased to a single tenant for a term which expires in
1999. The tenant has an option that commenced in September, 1995 to purchase the
facility at fair market value. As of December 31, 1998, the tenant has not
expressed any interest in exercising the option.
D. Apartment Complex in Sherman Oaks, California ("Regency Court
-------------------------------------------------------------
Apartments")
- ------------
On April 14, 1995, Regency Court Associates, L.P., a California limited
partnership (the "Acquisition Partnership"), acquired a 174-unit apartment
complex located in Sherman Oaks, California for $9,605,021. The sole limited
partner of the Acquisition Partnership is the Partnership, and the sole general
partner of the Acquisition Partnership is Copp VII Holding Corp., a
Massachusetts corporation which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership
(the "Subsidiary"). As of December 31, 1998, the Partnership had contributed
$9,700,000 to the capital of the Acquisition Partnership. The partnership
agreement of the Acquisition Partnership entitles the Partnership to receive 99%
of cash flow and 99% of sale and financing proceeds. The Subsidiary has a 1%
interest in cash flow and sale and financing proceeds. The Subsidiary has been
capitalized with a $1,000,000 demand promissory note from the Partnership.
The Acquisition Partnership owns a 174-unit apartment complex known as
Regency Court located on approximately 1.64 acres of land. As of December 31,
1998, the apartment complex was approximately 96% leased.
The seller of Regency Court was obligated to supplement the monthly
rental income from the Apartment Complex to the extent such income was less than
$125,000 per month during the one-year period ended April 13, 1996 (the
"Supplement Period"), prorated for any partial month at the beginning or
expiration of such Supplement Period. To secure this obligation, the seller
deposited $300,000 in an interest-bearing account with First American Title
Insurance Company. The seller's total liability for its obligation to supplement
rental income was limited to the $300,000 deposit plus any interest earned
thereon. The total supplemental rental income required to be paid by the seller
was $115,323.

Following is information regarding the competitive market conditions for
each of the Partnership's properties. This information has been gathered from
sources deemed reliable. However, the Partnership has not independently
verified the information and, as such, cannot guarantee its accuracy or
completeness:
Industrial Building in Itasca, Illinois
---------------------------------------
This industrial building is located west of Chicago in northeast DuPage County.
Northeast DuPage has the highest concentration of industrial space of any
submarket in DuPage County. Most tenants in this submarket rely heavily on
close proximity to O'Hare International Airport and convenient access to
Interstates 355, 290, 90 and the Elgin-O'Hare Expressway. The O'Hare Area
market consists of approximately 109 million square feet of industrial space, of
which approximately 6.1% was vacant at year-end 1998, compared to 7.2% at year-
end 1997. Approximately 1 million square feet of space was added to the market
and rental rates were largely unchanged during the year.
Apartment Complex in Sherman Oaks, California
---------------------------------------------
This apartment complex is located in Sherman Oaks, California, which is within
the San Fernando Valley apartment market, approximately 14 miles north of
downtown Los Angeles. All of the damage from the 1994 Northridge Earthquake has
been repaired. Supply and demand are in equilibrium and occupancy in the market
has stabilized at around 95%. The property continues to benefit from its large
size -- it is one of a handful of apartment complexes in Sherman Oaks with more
than 100 units per acre. The Sherman Oaks property was sold for gross proceeds
of $13,050,000 on March 25, 1999.
Retail Center in San Jose, California
-------------------------------------
The center is located in the San Jose metropolitan market, which has been
negatively affected over the last year by the Asian crisis and the subsequent
decreased demand for high-tech commodities. Demand for retail space increased
approximately 0.8% in 1998, a slowdown from 1997 when demand increased 4.1%.
The year-end 1998 retail vacancy rate was approximately 6.1%, a slight
improvement from 6.6% at the close of 1997. While 1998 job growth in San Jose
will not match 1997's pace of nearly 6%, job growth remained healthy at
approximately 3%.
Office/Warehouse Building in Houston, Texas
-------------------------------------------
The property is located in the metropolitan Houston industrial market, which
contains more than 93 million square feet of high-quality, investment-grade
industrial space spread over eight submarkets. Demand for industrial space
increased approximately 2.3% during 1998, compared to a 5.6% increase in demand
for 1997. The overall Houston industrial vacancy rate was 6.3% at year-end
1998, down slightly from 6.6% the prior year. More specifically, the property
is located in the Northwest Houston industrial submarket, which contains almost
33.7 million square feet of primary bulk warehouse space. This submarket is the
largest in terms of square footage and is also the most active in terms of
development. During 1998, new product (delivered and under construction) was
estimated at 2 million square feet. Despite the sizeable addition of new
supply, the submarket experienced positive absorption for the year of slightly
more than 2 million square feet. As a result, the vacancy rate in the Northwest
Houston industrial submarket declined from 5.1% at the end of 1997 to 5.0% at
the end of 1998.

-----------------
A partner in a joint venture in which the Partnership holds an interest
has filed a declaratory judgment action with respect to certain provisions of
the joint venture agreement.

Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder
-------------------------------------------------------------
Matters.
- -------
There is no active market for the Units. Trading in the Units is
sporadic and occurs solely through private transactions.
As of December 31, 1998, there were 5,890 holders of Units.
The Partnership's Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership
dated April 27, 1989, as amended to date (the "Partnership Agreement"), requires
that any Distributable Cash (as defined therein) be distributed quarterly to the
Partners in specified proportions and priorities. There are no restrictions on
the Partnership's present or future ability to make distributions of
Distributable Cash. For the year ended December 31, 1998, cash distributions
paid in 1998 or distributed after year end with respect to 1998 to the Limited
Partners totaled $8,434,977 including $5,427,804 of returned capital from the
proceeds of sale of joint venture and $541,939 of returned capital from original
working capital reserves. For the year ended December 31, 1997, cash
distributions paid in 1997 or distributed after year end with respect to 1997 to
the Limited Partners totaled $2,603,664.
Cash distributions exceeded net income in 1998 and 1997. However,
distributions of operating cash flow were less than cash generated by operating
activities. Reference is made to the Partnership's Statement of Changes in
Partner's Capital (Deficit) and Statement of Cash Flows in Item 8 hereof.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPERATIONS
- ----------
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
The Partnership completed its offering of units of limited partnership
interest in September, 1990 and a total of 42,076 units were sold. The
Partnership received proceeds of $36,522,542, net of selling commissions and
other offering costs, which have been used for investment in real estate and the
payment of related acquisition costs, and for working capital reserves. The
Partnership made the four investments described in Item 1 hereof, and three
additional investments which were sold in 1991, 1994 and 1998, respectively.
Through December 31, 1998, capital of $10,850,559 ($257.88 per limited
partnership unit) has been returned to the limited partners; $9,972,012 as a
result of sales, $336,608 in 1996 as a result of a discretionary reduction of
cash reserves and $541,939 in 1998 as a result of a distribution of original
working capital. As a result of sales and similar transactions, the adjusted
capital contribution was reduced to $742.12.
On August 7, 1998, the Waterford Apartments, in Frederick, Maryland, which
was owned by the Partnership (25%) and an affiliate (75%), was sold to an
institutional buyer which is unaffiliated with the Partnership. The total gross
sale price was $21,800,000. The Partnership received its share of the net
proceeds totaling $5,446,250, after closing costs and recognized a gain of
$2,076,945 ($48.87 per limited partnership unit). A disposition fee was accrued
but not paid to the AEW Real Estate Advisors, Inc. ("AEW"). On August 26, 1998,
the Partnership made a capital distribution of $5,427,804 ($129 per limited
partnership unit) from the proceeds of the sale.
At December 31, 1998, the Partnership had $3,985,403 in cash and cash
equivalents of which $555,063 was used for operating distributions to partners
on January 28, 1998; the remainder will primarily be used as working capital
reserves. The source of future liquidity and cash distributions to partners will
primarily be cash flow generated by the Partnership's short-term and real estate
investments and proceeds from the sale of such investments. Distributions of
cash from operations relating to the first and second quarters of 1998 were made
at an annualized rate of 7% on the adjusted capital contribution. Distributions
of cash from operations relating to the third and fourth quarters of 1998 were
made at an annualized rate of 7% on the weighted average adjusted capital
contribution which was adjusted due to the mid-quarter sale of Waterford
Apartments as well as a distribution of original working capital. Quarterly
distributions of cash from operations relating to 1997 were made at an
annualized rate of 7% on the adjusted capital contribution.
The carrying value of real estate investments in the financial statements
at December 31, 1998 is at depreciated cost, or if the investment's carrying
value is determined not to be recoverable through expected undiscounted future
cash flows, the carrying value is reduced to estimated fair market value. The
fair market value of such investments is further reduced by the estimated cost
of sale for properties held for sale. Carrying value may be greater or less than
current appraised value. At December 31, 1998, the appraised value of each real
estate investment exceeded its carrying value; the aggregate excess was
approximately $9,000,000. The current appraised value of real estate investments
has been estimated by the Managing General Partner and is generally based on a
combination of traditional appraisal approaches performed by AEW and independent
appraisers. Because of the subjectivity inherent in the valuation process, the
estimated current appraised value may differ significantly from that which could
be realized if the real estate were actually offered for sale in the
marketplace.
<PAGE>
Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure
------------------------------
The Year 2000 Issue is a result of computer programs being written using
two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Computer programs
that have date-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year
1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system failure or
miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among other
things, a temporary inability to process transactions or engage in normal
business operations.
The Partnership relies on AEW Capital Management L.P. ("AEW Capital
Management"), the parent of AEW Real Estate Advisors, Inc., to generate
financial information and to provide other services which are dependent on the
use of computers. The Partnership has obtained assurances from AEW Capital
Management that:
. AEW Capital Management has developed a Year 2000 Plan (the "Plan")
consisting of five phases: inventory, assessment, testing,
remediation/repair and certification.
. As of September 30, 1998, AEW Capital Management had completed the
inventory and assessment phases of this Plan and had commenced the
testing and remediation/repair of internal systems.
. AEW Capital Management expects to conclude the internal testing,
remediation/repair and certifications of its Plan no later than June
30, 1999.
The Partnership also relies on joint venture partners and/or property
managers to supply financial and other data with respect to its real properties.
The Partnership is in the process of surveying these third party providers and
assessing their compliance with Year 2000 requirements. To date, the Partnership
is not aware of any problems that would materially impact its results of
operations, liquidity or capital resources. However, the Partnership has not yet
obtained written assurances that these providers would be Year 2000 compliant.
The Partnership currently does not have a contingency plan in the event of
a particular provider or system not being Year 2000 compliant. Such a plan will
be developed if it becomes clear that a provider (including AEW Capital
Management) is not going to achieve its scheduled compliance objectives by June
30, 1999. The inability of one of these providers to complete its Year 2000
resolution process could materially impact the Partnership. In addition, the
Partnership is also subject to external forces that might generally affect
industry and commerce, such as utility or transportation company Year 2000
compliance failures and related service interruptions. Given the nature of its
operations, the Partnership will not incur any costs associated with Year 2000
compliance. All such costs are borned by AEW Capital Management and the
property managers.
<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
FORM OF REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS
The Drilex and Regency Court Apartments investments are wholly-owned
properties. The remaining real estate investments in the portfolio are
structured as joint ventures.
OPERATING FACTORS
The Partnership's two industrial properties, Drilex and Prentiss Copystar,
were each 100% leased by a single tenant, at December 31, 1998, as they have
been for the last six years.
As previously discussed, the Waterford Apartments was sold on August 7,
1998, and the Partnership recognized a gain of $2,076,945. At the time of the
sale, the Waterford Apartments were 96% leased. At December 31, 1997 it was 93%
leased.
The Partnership's multi-family residential property, Regency Court
Apartments, ended the fourth quarter of 1998 with an occupancy level of 96%
compared to 95% for the period ended December 31, 1997.
Occupancy at Parkmoor Plaza was 100% at December 31, 1998, where it has
remained since the second quarter of 1995.
INVESTMENT RESULTS
Interest on short-term investments and cash equivalents increased
approximately $7,400 or 3% in 1998 as compared to 1997, due to an increase in
average investment balances as a result of the receipt of the Waterford
Apartments sales proceeds.
1998 Compared to 1997
Total real estate operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 1998
and 1997 was $2,063,956 and $2,137,069, respectively. The decrease of $73,113
is primarily due to lower joint venture earnings due to the sale of Waterford
Apartments. Partially offsetting this is improved operating results at Regency
Court Apartments of approximately $49,000 as a result of increased rental
revenues due to improved market conditions during 1998 as compared to 1997.
Operating results at the three remaining properties were relatively unchanged
between the respective periods.
Cash flow from operations increased approximately $12,000 between the
respective twelve month periods. This change is primarily due to the decrease
in investment income receivables.
1997 Compared to 1996
Total real estate operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 1997
and 1996 was $2,137,069 and $1,931,881, respectively. This increase is due to
improved operating income at Regency Court Apartments of approximately $142,000
as a result of increased rental revenues due to higher average occupancy during
1997 as compared to 1996, slightly offset by increased earthquake insurance
premiums. Operating results at Waterford Apartments increased approximately
$42,000 due to higher rental rates combined with a decrease in depreciation
expense related to personal property that became fully depreciated. In
addition, operating results at Prentiss Copystar improved by approximately
$18,000 due to a reduction in real estate taxes combined with a
<PAGE>
decrease in amortization expense related to leasing commissions that became
fully amortized. Operating results at the two remaining properties were
relatively unchanged between the respective periods.
Cash flow from operations increased approximately $163,000 between the
respective twelve month periods. This change is primarily due to the increases
in operating results discussed above, partially offset by an increase in
property working capital.
PORTFOLIO EXPENSES
The Partnership management fee is 9% of distributable cash flow from
operations after any increase or decrease in working capital reserves as
determined by the managing general partner. A portion of the cash distribution
for the third quarter of 1996 was attributable to a discretionary reduction of
cash reserves. To the extent the distributed reserves had not been generated
from operations, no management fee was payable. General and administrative
expenses primarily consist of real estate appraisal, printing, legal, accounting
and investor servicing fees.
1998 Compared to 1997
The Partnership management fee decrease between 1998 and 1997 due to a
decrease in distributable cash flow as a result of the sale of Waterford
Apartments on August 7, 1998. General and administrative expenses increased
approximately $6,500 primarily due to an increase in legal and investor
servicing fees.
1997 Compared to 1996
The Partnership management fee increased between 1997 and 1996 due to an
increase in distributable cash flow and a corresponding increase in operating
distributions to partners. General and administrative expenses decreased
approximately $9,000 primarily due to a decrease in professional fees for 1997
which was the result of a reduction in accounting fees. Printing expenses
decreased as well compared to 1996.
INFLATION
- ---------
By their nature, real estate investments tend not to be adversely affected
by inflation. Inflation may result in appreciation in the value of the
Partnership's real estate investments over time, if rental rates and replacement
costs increase. Declines in property values during the period of Partnership
operations, due to market and economic conditions, have overshadowed the
positive affect inflation may have on the value of the Partnership's
investments.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
----------------------------------------------------------
The Partnership was not party to derivative financial instruments or
derivative commodity instruments at or during the year ended December 31, 1998.

To the Partners
COPLEY PENSION PROPERTIES VII;
A REAL ESTATE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
In our opinion, based upon our audits and the reports of other auditors for the
years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, the financial statements listed in
the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Copley Pension Properties VII; A Real Estate Limited Partnership
(the "Partnership") at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
These financial statements are the responsibility of Seventh Copley Corp., the
Managing General Partner of the Partnership; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the
financial statements of the Partnership's South Bay Associates and Waterford
Apartments joint venture investees for the year ended December 31, 1996 which
results of operations are recorded using the equity method of accounting in the
Partnership's financial statements. Equity in joint venture income for South Bay
Associates and Waterford Apartments aggregated $1,177,947 for the year ended
December 31, 1996. We also did not audit the financial statements of Regency
Court Apartments, a wholly-owned property, for the year ended December 31, 1996
which statements reflect operating income of $475,408. Those statements were
audited by other auditors whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and
our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for
the equity in joint venture income for South Bay Associates and Waterford
Apartments for the year ended December 31, 1996, and for operating income for
Regency Court Apartments for the year ended December 31, 1996, is based solely
on the reports of the other auditors. We conducted our audits of these
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by the Managing General Partner, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits and the reports of other auditors for the years ended December 31, 1998,
1997, and 1996 provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

COPLEY PENSION PROPERTIES VII;
A REAL ESTATE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Organization and Business
- ----------------------------------
General
-------
Copley Pension Properties VII; A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") is a Massachusetts limited partnership organized for the purpose
of investing primarily in newly constructed and existing income-producing real
properties. It primarily serves as an investment for qualified pension and
profit sharing plans and other entities intended to be exempt from federal
income tax. The Partnership commenced operations in March 1989, acquired three
of the four real estate investments it currently owns prior to the end of 1991,
and acquired the fourth property in 1995. The Partnership intends to dispose of
its investments within eight to twelve years of their acquisition, and then
liquidate.
The Managing General Partner of the Partnership is Seventh Copley Corp., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of AEW Real Estate Advisors, Inc. ("AEW"), formerly
known as Copley Real Estate Advisors, Inc. ("Copley"). The associate general
partner is ICOP Associates Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited
partnership. Subject to the Managing General Partner's overall authority, the
business of the Partnership is managed by AEW pursuant to an advisory contract.
On December 10, 1996, Copley's parent, New England Investment Companies,
Limited Partnership ("NEIC"), a publicly traded master limited partnership,
acquired certain assets subject to then existing liabilities from Aldrich
Eastman & Waltch, Inc. and its affiliates and principals (collectively, "the AEW
operations"). Simultaneously, a new entity, AEW Capital Management, L.P., was
formed into which NEIC contributed its interest in Copley and its affiliates.
As a result, the AEW operations were combined with Copley to form the business
operations of AEW Capital Management, L.P. At the end of 1997, NEIC completed a
restructuring plan under which it contributed all of its operations to a newly
formed private partnership, NEIC Operating Partnership, L.P., in exchange for a
general partnership interest in the newly formed entity. Accordingly, at
December 31, 1997, AEW Capital Management, L.P. was wholly owned by NEIC
Operating Partnership, L.P.. AEW is a subsidiary of AEW Capital Management,
L.P.. Effective April 1, 1998, NEIC changed its name to Nvest, L.P. and NEIC
Operating Partnership, L.P. changed its name to Nvest Companies, L.P.
Prior to August 30, 1996, New England Mutual Life Insurance Company ("The
New England") was NEIC's principal unit holder and owner of all of the
outstanding stock of NEIC's general partner. On August 30, 1996, The New
England merged with and into Metropolitan Life Insurance Company ("Met Life").
Met Life is the surviving entity and, therefore, through a wholly-owned
subsidiary, became the owner of the units of partnership interest previously
owned by The New England and of the stock of NEIC's general partner.
Management
----------
AEW, as advisor, is entitled to receive stipulated fees from the
Partnership in consideration of services performed in connection with the
management of the Partnership and the acquisition and disposition of Partnership
investments in real property. Partnership management fees are 9% of
distributable cash from operations, as defined, before deducting such
<PAGE>
fees. Payment of a portion of the management fees incurred through 1991 had been
deferred in accordance with the advisory agreement; however, during 1995, these
deferred fees totaling $203,452 were paid to AEW in connection with the
distribution of sale proceeds (See Note 3). AEW is also reimbursed for expenses
incurred in connection with administering the Partnership ($12,000, $12,000 and
$12,000 in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively). Acquisition fees were paid at
the time commitments were initially funded in an amount equal to 2% of the gross
proceeds from the offering. Disposition fees are limited to the lesser of 3% of
the selling price of the property, or 50% of the standard real estate commission
customarily charged by an independent real estate broker. Payments of
disposition fees are subject to the prior receipt by the limited partners of
their capital contributions plus a stipulated return thereon.
New England Securities Corporation ("NESC"), an indirect subsidiary of Met
Life, is engaged by the Partnership to act as its unitholder servicing agent.
Fees and out-of-pocket expenses for such services totaled $8,911 in 1998, $8,371
in 1997, and $8,000 in 1996. Fees to Back Bay Advisors, L.P., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Nvest Companies, L.P., for short-term investment advisory services
totaled, $0, $4,412, and $4,424 for the same annual periods.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
- ---------------------------------------------------
Accounting Estimates
--------------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires the Managing General Partner to make
estimates affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and of
revenues and expenses. In the Partnership's business, certain estimates require
an assessment of factors not within management's control, such as the ability of
tenants to perform under long-term leases and the ability of the properties to
sustain their occupancies in changing markets. Actual results, therefore, could
differ from those estimates.
Real Estate Joint Ventures
--------------------------
Investments in joint ventures are stated at cost plus (minus) equity in
undistributed joint venture income (losses). Allocations of joint venture
income (losses) were made to the Partnership's venture partners as long as they
had substantial economic equity in the project. Currently, the Partnership
records an amount equal to 100% of the operating results of each joint venture,
after the elimination of all inter-entity transactions, except for the two
ventures which include an affiliate of the Partnership, which has substantial
economic equity in the respective projects. Joint ventures are consolidated
with the accounts of the Partnership if, and when, the venture partner no longer
shares in the control of the business.
Property
--------
Property includes land and buildings, which are stated at cost less
accumulated depreciation, plus other operating net assets (liabilities). The
Partnership's initial carrying value of a property previously owned by a joint
venture equals the Partnership's carrying value of the prior investment on the
conversion date.
Capitalized Costs, Depreciation and Amortization
------------------------------------------------
Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Significant
improvements and renewals are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the
straight-line method based on estimated useful lives of the buildings and
improvements. Leasing costs are also capitalized and amortized over the related
lease term.
<PAGE>
Acquisition fees have been capitalized as part of the cost of real estate
investments. Amounts not related to land are amortized using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the underlying property.
Certain tenant leases provide for rental increases over the respective
lease terms. Rental revenue is being recognized on a straight-line basis over
the lease terms.
Realizability of Real Estate Investments
----------------------------------------
The Partnership considers a real estate investment to be impaired when it
determines the carrying value of the investment is not recoverable through
undiscounted cash flows generated from the operations and disposition of the
property. The impairment loss is based on the excess of the investment's
carrying value over its estimated fair market value. For investments held for
disposition, the impairment loss also includes estimated costs of sale.
Property held for disposition is not depreciated during the holding period.
Carrying value may be greater or less than current appraised value. The
appraised values of all of the Partnership's investments exceeded their carrying
values by a total of approximately $9,000,000 and $8,100,000 at December 31,
1998 and 1997, respectively. The current appraised value of real estate
investments has been estimated by the Managing General Partner and is generally
based on a combination of traditional appraisal approaches performed by AEW and
independent appraisers. Because of the subjectivity inherent in the valuation
process, the estimated current appraised value may differ significantly from
that which could be realized if the real estate were actually offered for sale
in the marketplace.
Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments
-------------------------------------------
Cash equivalents are stated at cost, plus accrued interest. The
Partnership considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a
maturity of ninety days or less to be cash equivalents; otherwise, they are
classified as short-term investments.
The Partnership has the positive intent and ability to hold all short-term
investments to maturity; therefore, short-term investments are carried at cost,
plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. At December 31, 1997,
all investments were in commercial paper with less than three months remaining
to maturity.
Deferred Disposition Fees
-------------------------
Disposition fees due to AEW related to sales of investments are included in
the determination of gains or losses resulting from such transactions.
According to the terms of the advisory contract, payment of such fees has been
deferred until the limited partners first receive their capital contributions,
plus stipulated returns thereon.
Income Taxes
------------
A partnership is not liable for income taxes and, therefore, no provision
for income taxes is made in the financial statements of the Partnership. A
proportionate share of the Partnership's income is reportable on each partner's
tax return.
Per Unit Computations
---------------------
Per unit computations are based on the number of units of limited
partnership interest outstanding during the year. The actual per unit amount
will vary by partner depending on the date of admission to, or withdrawal from,
the Partnership.
<PAGE>
Segment Data
------------
Effective January 1, 1998, the Partnership adopted Financial Accounting
Standards Board Statement No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments on an Enterprise
and Related Information" (FAS 131). Based on the criteria established in FAS
131, the Managing General Partner has determined that the Partnership operates
in one operating segment which is investing in real estate properties which are
domiciled in the United States of America.
Note 3 - Real Estate Joint Ventures
- -----------------------------------
The Partnership invested in six real estate joint ventures, organized as
general partnerships with different real estate management/development firms,
and in two cases, with an affiliate of the Partnership. One investment was sold
in each of 1991, 1994 and 1998. The Drilex investment was converted to a
wholly-owned property in 1993. The Partnership has committed to make capital
contributions to the ventures, which are subject to preferential cash
distributions at a specified rate and to priority distributions with respect to
sale or refinancing proceeds. The joint venture agreements provide for the
funding of cash flow deficits by the venture partners in proportion to ownership
interests, and for the dilution of ownership share in the event a venture
partner does not contribute proportionately.
The respective real estate management/development firm is responsible for
day-to-day development and operating activities, although overall authority and
responsibility for the business is shared by the venturers. The real estate
management/development firm, or its affiliates, also provides various services
to the respective joint ventures for a fee.
The following is a summary of cash invested in joint ventures, net of
returns of capital and acquisition fees:

Waterford Apartments
--------------------
On March 20, 1989, the Partnership entered into a joint venture with an
affiliate of Bozzuto and Associates, and with an affiliate of the Partnership,
to develop and operate a garden-style apartment complex. The Partnership and
its affiliate collectively had a 65% ownership interest in the joint venture.
The Partnership committed to contribute up to $4,700,000 to the capital of the
joint venture. The preferential return related to $1,175,000 was payable
currently only to the extent of available cash flow. In the event of a sale or
refinancing prior to the tenth anniversary of the joint venture agreement, 25%
of the Partnership's contribution would first be repaid at par. The remaining
75% would be repaid subject to a premium designed to preserve the stipulated
rate of return through the ninth anniversary of the joint venture agreement.
<PAGE>
On August 7, 1998, the joint venture sold the Waterford Apartments was sold
to an institutional buyer which is unaffiliated with the Partnership. The total
sales price was $21,800,000. The Partnership received its share of the net
proceeds totaling $5,446,250.00, after closing costs and recognized a gain of
$2,076,945 ($48.87 per limited partnership unit). A disposition fee of $163,500
was accrued but not paid to AEW. On August 26, 1998, the Partnership made a
capital distribution of $5,427,804 ($129 per limited partnership unit) from the
proceeds of the sale.
Parkmoor Plaza
--------------
On September 20, 1989, the Partnership entered into a joint venture with
South Bay Construction and Development Company, Inc. to acquire a leasehold
interest in three industrial/service center buildings and to renovate and
operate these buildings. The Partnership committed to make a maximum capital
contribution of $10,000,000. The payment of up to 1% per annum of the
preferential return is deferrable during the first ten years if sufficient
operating cash flow is not available. The joint venture is required to return
all cash contributions made by the Partnership by the tenth anniversary of its
initial funding. The non-cancelable ground lease has an initial expiration date
of November 12, 2014 and requires annual ground rental payments by the venture
of $73,230. The joint venture also has an option to extend the term of the
ground lease for an additional 25 years. Future minimum rental payments due to
the venture under non-cancelable operating leases are: $1,362,780 in 1999;
$1,295,373 in 2000; $1,223,162 in 2001; $1,218,115 in 2002; $1,272,872 in 2003;
and $6,319,012 thereafter.
<PAGE>
Prentiss Copystar
-----------------
On May 23, 1991, the Partnership entered into a joint venture with an
affiliate of Prentiss Properties, Ltd., and an affiliate of the Partnership, to
develop and operate an industrial facility. The Partnership and its affiliate
collectively have a 75% interest in the joint venture. The Partnership
committed to make a maximum capital contribution of $1,029,084. The
preferential return related to $308,725 of the Partnership's capital
contribution is payable currently only to the extent of available cash flow. If
$720,359, or any portion thereof, is returned to the Partnership between the
second and tenth anniversary of the joint venture agreement, the return will be
increased by an amount sufficient to preserve the stipulated rate of return
through the tenth anniversary. The minimum future rental payments due to the
venture under a non-cancelable operating lease are $281,000 in 1999.

Note 4 - Property
- -----------------
Regency Court Apartments
------------------------
On April 14, 1995, the Partnership acquired, through a limited partnership
it controls, a 174-unit apartment complex in Sherman Oaks, California, known as
Regency Court Apartments, for a total price of $9,605,021. The purchase and
sale agreement required the seller to supplement the monthly rental income
generated from the property to the extent such income was less than $125,000 per
month during the one-year period ended April 13, 1996, with such supplement not
to exceed $300,000 in total. The supplemental rental was $115,323, which has
been applied to reduce the purchase price in 1995 and 1996.
The buildings and improvements are being depreciated over 30 years using
the straight-line method.
On March 25, 1999, the Partnership sold the Regency Court Apartments to an
unaffiliated buyer for a gross purchase price of $13,050,000. The Partnership
received net proceeds of $12,367,919.
Drilex
------
On December 18, 1990, the Partnership entered into a joint venture with an
affiliate of The Trammell Crow Company to develop and own a build-to-suit
industrial building for the Drilex Corporation, Inc. The Partnership
contributed $2,294,713 to the capital of the venture. The Partnership acquired
the venture partner's interest for a payment of $70,000, and the investment
became a wholly-owned property as of September 30, 1993.
The building and improvements are being depreciated over 25 years. The
building is leased to a single tenant under an agreement which continues through
July 2001. The lease provides for annual rents of $264,960 for the first five
years and $305,016 thereafter.

Note 6 - Partners' Capital
- --------------------------
Allocation of net income (losses) from operations and distributions of
distributable cash from operations, as defined, are in the ratio of 99% to the
limited partners and 1% to the general partners. Cash distributions are made
quarterly.
Net sale proceeds and refinancing proceeds are allocated first to limited
partners to the extent of their contributed capital plus a stipulated return
thereon, as defined, second to pay disposition fees, and then 85% to the limited
partners and 15% to the general partners. The adjusted capital contribution per
limited partnership unit was reduced from $1,000 to $996 during 1991, and from
$996 to $892 in 1995, as a result of capital returned from sale transactions.
The adjusted capital contribution was further reduced to $884 in 1996, as a
result of capital returned from a discretionary reduction of cash reserves. In
1998 the adjusted capital contribution was reduced from$884 to $755 as a result
of capital returned from the sale of Waterford Apartments and further reduced to
$742.12 as a result of capital returned from a discretionary reduction of
original working capital. No capital distributions have been made to the
general partners. Income from a sale is allocated in proportion to the
distribution of related proceeds, provided that the general partners are
allocated at least 1%. Income or losses from a sale, if there are no residual
proceeds after the repayment of the related debt, will be allocated 99% to the
limited partners and 1% to the general partners.
Note 7 - Subsequent Event
- -------------------------
Distributions of cash from operations relating to the quarter ended
December 31, 1998 were made on January 28, 1999 in the aggregate amount of
$555,063 ($13.06 per limited partnership unit). See Note 4 for discussion of
investment sale on March 25, 1999.

assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of South Bay/Copley VII

SOUTH BAY/COPLEY VII ASSOCIATES
(A CALIFORNIA GENERAL PARTNERSHIP)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Partnership was formed for the purpose of developing and leasing
approximately 13.8 acres in the City of San Jose, California. The project
includes the developing, leasing and management of the buildings. The
Partnership has concentrations of credit risk for rents receivable, as all of
the balances are due from businesses located within the same geographic region.
The partners are: Copley Pension Properties VII (a Massachusetts Limited
Partnership) and SBC&D Co., Inc. (a California corporation).
The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, as well as the disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Management also determines the accounting principles to be used in
the preparation of financial statements. A description of the significant
accounting policies employed in the preparation of these financial statements
follows:
RENTAL REVENUE
Revenue from leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term,
irrespective of when payments are due under the terms of the leases.
PROPERTIES
Properties consisting of buildings and site improvements are reported at cost
less accumulated depreciation and include improvements that significantly add to
utility or extend useful lives. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense
as incurred. When items of property are sold or retired, the related cost and
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is
included in the results of operations.
Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the buildings and improvements, 40 years and 20 years,
respectively. These useful lives do not exceed the term of the land lease,
including the option period. Certain building improvements related to specific
tenants are depreciated over the respective lease term, which is generally 15
years.
INCOME TAXES
Income or loss of the Partnership is allocated to the partners in accordance
with the Partnership Agreement. No income tax provision has been included in
the financial statements since all taxable items of the Partnership are required
to be reported by the respective partners on their income tax returns.

SOUTH BAY/COPLEY VII ASSOCIATES
(A CALIFORNIA GENERAL PARTNERSHIP)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Additionally, the tax returns and the amount of distributable Partnership income
or loss are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities. If
the Partnership's taxable income or loss is ultimately changed by the taxing
authorities, the tax liability of the partners could be changed accordingly.
The income or loss reported for tax purposes may differ from the amount of the
income or loss on these financial statements due to differences in rental income
recognition for federal income tax reporting purposes and financial accounting
purposes. In addition, in accordance with federal tax requirements and certain
provisions of the Partnership Agreement, the allocation of income or loss for
tax purposes may differ from these financial statements.
2. INCOME-PRODUCING PROPERTIES
Income-producing properties consisted of the following:

1997,and 1996 was $265,252, $265,252, and $263,085, respectively.
The Partnership evaluates its properties for impairment of value under standards
established under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed of." Under these standards, an impairment occurs if the estimated
undiscounted cash flows from the properties were less than the carrying amount
of the asset. At December 31, 1998, the Partnership does not hold any assets
that meet the impairment criteria of SFAS No. 121.
