PART I
Item 1. BUSINESS
Community Investment Partners II, L.P. (the ``Partnership'')
was formed to seek long-term capital appreciation by making
investments in companies and other special investment situations.
The Partnership will not engage in any other business or activity.
The Partnership will dissolve on December 31, 2007, subject to the
right of the Individual General Partners to extend the term for up
to two additional two-year periods.
The Partnership has elected to be a business development
company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. As a
business development company, the Partnership is required to invest
at least 70% of its assets in qualifying investments as specified
in the Investment Company Act.
The Partnership was formed on May 8, 1992, under the Revised
Uniform Limited Partnership Act of Missouri. CIP Management, L.P.,
the Managing General Partner, is a Missouri limited partnership
formed on October 10, 1989. The general partner of CIP Management,
L.P., is CIP Management, Inc., an indirect subsidiary of Edward D.
Jones & Co., L.P.
The Partnership participated in a public offering of its
limited partnership interests in 1992. The Partnership sold
111,410 Units of limited partnership interest and 1,120 units of
general partnership interest for an aggregate price of $1,406,625.
After offering expenses, the Partnership received approximately
$1,224,000 in proceeds available for investment. The Partnership
executed a call to each partner requesting the deposit of an amount
equal to the initial capital contribution on August 25, 1994.
The Managing General Partner is required to have invested the
net proceeds of the Partnership's offering (excluding amounts held
in reserve) within two years of the date of the capital call.
The information set forth under the captions ``Investment
Objectives & Policies'' and ``Regulation'' in the Prospectus of the
Partnership dated November 4, 1992, filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 497(b) under the Securities
Act of 1933, is incorporated herein by reference.
Risks of Unit Ownership
The purchase and ownership of Units involve a number of
significant risks and other important factors. The portfolio
company investments of the Partnership involve a high degree of
business and financial risk that can result in substantial losses.
Among these are the risks associated with investment in companies
with little operating history, companies operating at a loss or
with substantial variations in operating results from period to
period, companies with the need for substantial additional capital
to support expansion or achieve or maintain a competitive position,
companies which may be highly leveraged, companies which may be
less diversified and companies in which the Partnership may be the
sole or primary lender. The Partnership intends to invest in only
a few companies. Therefore, a loss or other problem with a single
investment would have a material adverse effect on the Partnership.
<PAGE>
Other risks include the Partnership's ability to find suitable
investments for its funds because of competition from other
entities having similar investment objectives. Risks may arise due
to the significant period of time that may elapse before the
Partnership has completed the selection of its portfolio company
investments and the significant period of time (typically four to
seven years or longer) which will elapse before portfolio company
investments have reached a state of maturity such that disposition
can be considered. It is unlikely that any significant
distributions of the proceeds from the disposition of investments
will be made until the later years of the term of the Partnership.
Portfolio companies may require additional funds. There can
be no assurance that the Partnership will have sufficient funds
from reserves or borrowing to make such follow-up investments which
may have a substantial negative impact on a portfolio company in
need of additional funds.
All decisions with respect to the management of the
Partnership, including identifying and making portfolio
investments, are made exclusively by the General Partners. Limited
Partners must rely on the abilities of the General Partners. The
key personnel of the Managing General Partner have considerable
prior experience in investment banking and in structuring
investments. In addition, they have prior experience in the
operation of Community Investment Partners, L.P., a business
development company such as the Partnership.
Ownership of the Units also entails risk because Limited
Partners may not be able to liquidate their investment in the event
of an emergency or for any other reason due to the substantial
restrictions on transfers contained in the Partnership Agreement
and the lack of a market for the resale of Units.
The information set forth under the captions ``Risk and Other
Important Factors''(including the subsections ``Risks of
Investment,'' ``Size of Partnership,'' ``Ability to Invest Funds,''
`` Time Required to Maturity of Investments; Illiquidity of
Investments,'' ``Need for Follow-on Investments,'' ``Use of
Leverage,'' ``Unspecified Investments,'' ``Reliance on Management,''
`` New Business,'' ``No Market for Units'' and ``Federal Income Tax
Considerations'') on pages 9 through 14 of the Prospectus of
Partnership dated November 4, 1992, filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 497(b) under the Securities
Act of 1933 on November 4, 1992, is incorporated herein by this
reference. (This information has been restated herein pursuant to
section 64(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940).
Partners should refer to the Partnership Agreement for more
detailed information.

Partner performs management and administrative services for the
operation of the Partnership. The Managing General Partner is paid
an annual management fee of 1.5% of total assets. The Managing
General Partner is reimbursed by the Partnership for out of pocket
expenses in connection with finding, evaluating, structuring,
approving, monitoring and liquidating the Partnership's portfolio
investments.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(FISCAL YEAR 1996 VERSUS 1995)
Net loss for the year ended December 31, 1996, was $32,164,
compared to a net loss of $630,622 for 1995. Income was derived
from dividend income on portfolio investments and interest income
from certificates of deposit. The majority of the reduced net loss
incurred during 1996 is due primarily to a 1995 worthless
investment in West End Soda Brew of $600,000. In addition, the
Partnership had lower interest income of $15,212, due to cash being
used to purchase investments throughout 1996. Dividend income
increased $18,979 due to the increased level of investments.
During the year, the Partnership made several investments as
outlined in the Schedule of Portfolio Investments. One such
investment, FCOA Acquisition Corp., participated in an initial
public stock offering on December 13, 1996. The initial public
offering price was $9 per share, and the stock trades on the NASDAQ
under the ticker symbol FCPY. As of December 31, 1996, an
unrealized loss of $15,298 has been recorded for the FCOA
Acquisition Corporation investment. Expenses decreased by $9,989,
from $110,490 in 1995 to $100,501 in 1996. The decrease is
primarily related to lower professional fees. The future income or
loss of the Partnership is contingent upon the performance of
current and future investments.
<PAGE>
(FISCAL YEAR 1995 VERSUS 1994)
Net loss for the year ended December 31, 1995, was $630,622,
compared to a net loss of $86,345 for 1994. Income was derived
from dividend income on portfolio investments and interest income
from certificates of deposit. A loss was recorded to reflect a
worthless investment as West End Soda Brew closed operations in
November, 1995. The company was unable to compete with large
national competitors in the New Age segment of the beverage
industry and faced slowing demand for its products. This loss
accounts for the majority of the decrease in income. Expenses
decreased by $19,411, from $129,901 in 1994 to $110,490 in 1995.
As a result of lower total assets when compared to 1994, management
fees decreased by $9,000. Legal fees were down $10,000.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 2, 1997, the Partnership sold its investment in
Houghton Acquisition Corporation (HAC). In exchange for the 2,000
shares of Class A cumulative redeemable Preferred Stock, the
Partnership received $613,379 in cash and a Convertible Promissory
Note in the principal amount of $77,400 due January 2, 1999 with
interest payable at 8%. A Promissory Note in the principal amount
of $25,800 was also received but is contingent upon the future
income of HAC before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization
and corporate charges. As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership's
investment in HAC was recorded at original cost of $200,013.
Accordingly, the above transaction results in a gain of
approximately $490,000, which will be recorded in fiscal year 1997.
Due to the contingent nature of the Promissory Note in the
principal amount of $25,800, a gain has not been recorded for this
amount as of the transaction date. This Note has been recorded at
an original cost of $0, and additional gain will be recorded if, or
<PAGE>
when, payments become due under terms of the Note.
On January 6, 1997, the Partnership made a distribution of $5
per unit.
On January 24, 1997, the Partnership invested $100,000 in
Medical Device Alliance, Inc. and received 20,000 shares of common
stock. Medical Device Alliance, Inc. specializes in the
development, manufacture and marketing of devices for ultrasound-
assisted lipoplasty.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Partnership's total capital of $1,982,725 as of December
31, 1996, consisted of $1,962,730 in Limited Partner capital and
$19,995 in General Partner capital.
The 1996 total net loss of $32,164 was allocated to the
Limited Partners in the amount of $31,842 and to the General
Partners in the amount of $322.
The Partnership is actively reviewing potential portfolio
investments. Until the Partnership invests in portfolio
investments, it intends to invest its cash balances in a money
market account. At December 31, 1996, $527,000 was invested in the
money market account. Such investments provide the Partnership
with the liquidity necessary for investments as opportunities
arise.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Partners of
Community Investment Partners II, L.P.
In our opinion, the financial statements listed in the accompanying
index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Community Investment Partners II, L.P. (the
`` Partnership'') at December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of
its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Partnership's management; our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audits. We conducted our audits of these financial 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 management, and evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included
confirmation of portfolio investments owned as of December 31, 1996
and 1995. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for the opinion expressed above.
As explained in Note 3, the financial statements include
investments, valued at $1,397,330 (70 percent of net assets), whose
values have been determined by the Managing General Partner in the
absence of readily ascertainable market values. We have reviewed
the procedures used by the Managing General Partner in arriving at
an estimate of value and have inspected underlying documentation,
and, in the circumstances, we believe the procedures are reasonable
and the documentation appropriate. However, because of the
inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may
differ significantly from the values that would have been used had
a ready market for the investments existed, and the differences
could be material to the financial statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. GENERAL
Partnership Organization
Community Investment Partners II, L.P. (the ``Partnership'') was
formed on May 8, 1992, under the Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act of Missouri. CIP Management, L.P., the
Managing General Partner, is a Missouri limited partnership
formed on October 10, 1989. The general partner of CIP
Management, L.P. is CIP Management, Inc., an indirect
subsidiary of Edward D. Jones & Co., L.P.
Business
The Partnership elected to be a business development company
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. As a
business development company, the Partnership is required to
invest at least 70% of its assets in qualifying investments as
specified in the Investment Company Act.
The Partnership will seek long-term capital appreciation by
making investments in companies and other special investment
situations. The Partnership is not permitted to engage in any
other business or activity. The Partnership will dissolve on
December 31, 2007, subject to the right of the Individual
General Partners to extend the term for up to two additional
two-year periods.
The Managing General Partner was required to have invested the
net proceeds of the Partnership's offering (including amounts
held in reserve) within two years of the date of the capital
call.
Risk of Ownership
The purchase and ownership of Units involve a number of
significant risks and other important factors. The portfolio
company investments of the Partnership involve a high degree of
business and financial risk that can result in substantial
losses. Among these are the risks associated with investment
in companies with little operating history, companies operating
at a loss or with substantial variations in operating results
from period to period, companies with the need for substantial
additional capital to support expansion or achieve or maintain
a competitive position, companies which may be highly
leveraged, companies which may be less diversified and
companies in which the Partnership may be the sole or primary
lender. The Partnership intends to invest in only a few
companies; therefore, a loss or other problem with a single
investment would have a material adverse effect on the
Partnership.

2. ALLOCATION OF PARTNERSHIP PROFITS AND LOSSES
The Partnership Agreement generally provides for the pro rata
allocation of profits, losses and distributions between the
limited and general partners. Partners should refer to the
Partnership Agreement for more detailed information.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash and Cash Equivalents
All short-term investments with original maturities of three
months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.
Investment Transactions
All portfolio investments are carried at cost until significant
developments affecting an investment provide a basis for
revaluation. Thereafter, portfolio investments are carried at
fair value as obtained from outside sources or at a value
determined quarterly by the Managing General Partner under the
supervision of the Independent General Partners. Due to the
inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values for
portfolio investments carried at cost may differ significantly
from the values that would have been used had a ready market
for the investments existed, and the differences could be
material to the financial statements. Investment in securities
traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the
latest reported sales price on the last business day of the
period. If no sale has taken place, the securities are valued
at the last bid price. If no bid price has been reported, or
if no exchange quotation is available, the securities are
valued at the quotation obtained from an outside broker.
Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis.
Income is recorded on an accrual basis.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Organizational Costs
Organizational costs are being amortized over a sixty-month
period.
Income Taxes
Income taxes have not been provided for as the Partnership is a
limited partnership and each partner is liable for its own tax
payments. Allocation of Partnership profits and losses for tax
purposes is based upon taxable income which may differ from net
income for financial reporting primarily due to differences
between book and tax accounting for portfolio investments.
