NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 30, 2011

(UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of American Tax Credit Properties II L.P. (the “Partnership”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information.  They do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  The results of operations are impacted, in part, by the combined results of operations of the Local Partnerships, which are provided by the Local Partnerships on an unaudited basis during interim periods.  Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited financial statements are dependent on such unaudited information.  In the opinion of the General Partner, the accompanying unaudited financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of December 30, 2011 and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.  All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  The results of operations for the nine months ended December 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.

2. Investment in Local Partnerships

The Partnership originally acquired limited partner interests (the “Local Partnership Interests”) in fifty Local Partnerships representing capital contributions in the aggregate amount of $48,460,126, which includes voluntary advances made to certain Local Partnerships and all of which has been paid.  As of December 30, 2011, the Partnership holds a Local Partnership Interest in thirty-five Local Partnerships. The Partnership has no legal obligation to fund any operating deficits of the Local Partnerships.

For the nine months ended December 30, 2011, the investment in local partnerships activity consists of the following:

Investment in local partnerships as of March 30, 2011	$	761,205
Equity in income of investment in local partnerships		276,603	*
Distributions received from Local Partnerships		(194,038	)
Distributions classified as other income		194,038
Investment in local partnerships as of December 30, 2011	$	1,037,808

*In the event the operations of a Local Partnership result in a loss, equity in loss of each investment in Local Partnership allocated to the Partnership is recognized to the extent of the Partnership’s investment balance in each Local Partnership.  Equity in loss in excess of the Partnership’s investment balance in a Local Partnership is allocated to other partners’ capital in any such Local Partnership.

In July 2011, the Partnership withdrew from Littleton Avenue Community Village, L.P. (“Littleton”); there were no proceeds received by the Partnership in connection with the withdrawal.  The Partnership’s investment balance in Littleton, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 1999.

In November 2010, Auburn Hills Townhouses Limited Partnership (“Auburn Hills”) sold its underlying Property to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of Auburn Hills, in connection with which the Partnership received $1,035,516.  Of such amount, $48,894 was received in May 2011 and is reflected as due from local partnerships in the accompanying unaudited balance sheet as of March 30, 2011.  The Partnership’s investment balance in Auburn Hills, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 2005.

2. Investment in Local Partnerships (Continued)

In November 2009, Harborside Housing Limited Partnership (“Harborside”) sold its underlying Property to an unaffiliated third party, in connection with which the Partnership has received a total of approximately $3,917,000 as of December 30, 2011.  Harborside continues in existence and there may be additional proceeds after further resolution of Harborside’s accounts.  The Partnership’s investment balance in Harborside, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 2004.

The Local General Partner of Queen Lane Investors (“Queen Lane”) represents that, as a result of a dispute between the local housing agency (the “Agency”) and the Local General Partner of Queen Lane regarding the adequacy of certain unit repairs mandated by the Agency, the Local General Partner of Queen Lane requested that the Agency cancel the Section 8 voucher contract in connection with the Property.  As a result, the Property has been vacant since October 2007.  Two of Queen Lane’s mortgages matured in 2007 but have not been repaid or formally extended, representing principal and accrued interest of approximately $2,216,000 as of January 2012.  The Local General Partner of Queen Lane further represents that the lender has not issued a notice of default and that real estate taxes are in arrears approximately $57,000 as of December 2011.  The Local General Partner of Queen Lane is attempting to refinance the mortgages and make the necessary repairs to the Property.  The Partnership’s investment balance in Queen Lane, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 2001.

The Partnership’s investment balance in North Hills Farms Limited Partnership (“North Hills Farms”) of $1,037,808 as of December 30, 2011 represents more then 20% of the Partnership’s total assets and its equity in income of its investment in North Hills Farms of $276,603 represents more than 20% of the Partnership’s net income for the nine months ended December 30, 2011.  The following financial information represents certain unaudited balance sheet and operating statement data of North Hills Farms as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011:

Revenue	$	2,268,778
Net income	$	279,397

3. Investment in Pemberwick Fund

4. Investment in Bond

The Partnership carried its investment in bond as available-for-sale because such investment was used to facilitate and provide flexibility for its obligations.  Investment in bond was reflected in the accompanying unaudited balance sheet as of March 30, 2011 at estimated fair value and was classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy of the guidance on Fair Value Measurements (see Note 3).  The bond was called during the nine months ended December 30, 2011; accordingly, there is no accumulated other comprehensive income or loss associated with the Partnership’s investment in bond in the accompanying unaudited balance sheet as of December 30, 2011.  The Partnership’s cumulative annualized return on the bond for the sixteen month holding period totaled approximately 2.94%.

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

Material Changes in Financial Condition

As of December 30, 2011, American Tax Credit Properties II L.P. (the “Registrant”) has not experienced a significant change in financial condition as compared to March 30, 2011.  Principal changes in assets are comprised of periodic transactions and adjustments and equity in income (loss) from operations of the local partnerships (the “Local Partnerships”), which own low-income multifamily residential complexes (the “Properties”) that qualified for the low-income tax credit in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Low-income Tax Credit”).  During the nine months ended December 30, 2011, Registrant received cash from interest revenue, the redemption of its investment in bond, redemptions from Pemberwick Fund (“Pemberwick”), distributions from Local Partnerships and proceeds in connection with the sale of the Property owned by Auburn Hills Townhouses Limited Partnership (“Auburn Hills”) (see discussion below under Local Partnership Matters), and utilized cash for operating expenses and investments in Pemberwick. Cash and cash equivalents, investment in Pemberwick and investment in bond decreased, in the aggregate, by approximately $445,000 during the nine months ended December 30, 2011 (which includes an unrealized loss on investment in Pemberwick and the reclassification of unrealized gain on investment in bond in the aggregate of approximately $84,000 and amortization of premium on investment in bond and the write-off of the remaining unamortized premium on the date the bond was redeemed totaling approximately $6,000).  The bond owned by Registrant was called on October 3, 2011 at par; Registrant’s cumulative annualized return on the bond for the sixteen month holding period totaled approximately 2.94%.  Accordingly, Registrant did not experience any adverse impact in connection with such investment.  During the nine months ended December 30, 2011, the investment in local partnerships increased as a result of Registrant's equity in the Local Partnerships' net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 of $276,603.  Payable to general partner and affiliates represents accrued administration and management fees in the accompanying unaudited balance sheet as of December 30, 2011.

Results of Operations

Registrant’s operating results are dependent, in part, upon the operating results of the Local Partnerships and are impacted by the Local Partnerships’ policies.  In addition, the operating results herein are not necessarily the same for tax reporting.  Registrant accounts for its investment in local partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting.  Accordingly, the investment is carried at cost and is adjusted for Registrant’s share of each Local Partnership’s results of operations and by cash distributions received.  In the event the operations of a Local Partnership result in a loss, equity in loss of each investment in Local Partnership allocated to Registrant is recognized to the extent of Registrant’s investment balance in each Local Partnership.  Equity in loss in excess of Registrant’s investment balance in a Local Partnership is allocated to other partners’ capital in any such Local Partnership.

Cumulative losses and cash distributions in excess of investment in local partnerships may result from a variety of circumstances, including a Local Partnership's accounting policies, subsidy structure, debt structure and operating deficits, among other things.  In addition, the book value of Registrant’s investment in each Local Partnership (the “Local Partnership Carrying Value”) may be reduced if the Local Partnership Carrying Value is considered to exceed the estimated value derived by management.  Accordingly, cumulative losses and cash distributions in excess of the investment or an adjustment to a Local Partnership’s Carrying Value are not necessarily indicative of adverse operating results of a Local Partnership.

Registrant’s operations for the three months ended December 30, 2011 and 2010 resulted in net income of $13,486 and $1,110,431, respectively.  The decrease in net income from fiscal 2010 to fiscal 2011 is primarily attributable to a gain on sale of limited partner interests/local partnership properties of approximately $1,292,000 recognized in fiscal 2010, partially offset by (i) an increase in equity in income of investment in local partnerships of approximately $119,000, which increase is attributable to an increase in the net income of the Local Partnership in which Registrant continues to have an investment balance and (ii) a decrease in administration fees and management fees in the cumulative amount of approximately $94,000 resulting, in part, from an under accrual as of March 30, 2010.  Other comprehensive loss for the three months ended December 30, 2011 resulted from an unrealized loss on investment in Pemberwick of $2,673.

AMERICAN TAX CREDIT PROPERTIES II L.P.

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

Registrant’s operations for the nine months ended December 30, 2011 and 2010 resulted in net income of $126,158 and $689,570, respectively.  The decrease in net income from fiscal 2010 to fiscal 2011 is primarily attributable to a gain on sale of limited partner interests/local partnership properties of approximately $1,292,000 recognized in fiscal 2010, partially offset by (i) an increase in equity in income of investment in local partnerships of approximately $513,000, which increase is attributable to an increase in the net income of the Local Partnership in which Registrant continues to have an investment balance, (ii) an increase in other income from local partnerships of approximately $110,000 and (iii) a decrease in administration fees and management fees in the cumulative amount of approximately $123,000 resulting, in part, from an under accrual as of March 30, 2010.  Other comprehensive loss for the nine months ended December 30, 2011 resulted from an unrealized loss on investment in Pemberwick and the reclassification of unrealized gain on investment in bond of $81,401 and $2,730, respectively.

Local Partnership Matters

Registrant's primary objective, to provide Low-income Tax Credits to the limited partners (the “Limited Partners”), has been completed.  The relevant state tax credit agency allocated each of the Local Partnerships an amount of Low-income Tax Credits, which are generally available for a ten year period from the year the Property is placed in service (the “Ten Year Credit Period”).  The Ten Year Credit Period was fully exhausted with respect to all of the Properties as of December 31, 2005.  The required holding period of each Property, in order to avoid Low-income Tax Credit recapture, is fifteen years from the year in which the Low-income Tax Credits commence on the last building of the Property (the "Compliance Period").  The Compliance Period of all of the Local Partnerships had expired as of December 31, 2006.  In addition, certain of the Local Partnerships entered into agreements with the relevant state tax credit agencies whereby the Local Partnerships must maintain the low-income nature of the Properties for a period which exceeds the Compliance Period (in certain circumstances, up to 50 years from when the Property is placed in service, but commonly 30 years from the date any such Property is placed in service), regardless of a sale of the Properties by the Local Partnerships after the Compliance Period (the “Extended Use Provisions”).  Although the Extended Use Provisions do not extend the Compliance Period of the respective Local Partnerships, such provisions may limit the number and availability of potential purchasers of the Properties.  Accordingly, a sale of a Property may happen well after the expiration of the Compliance Period and/or may be significantly discounted.  Registrant is in the process of disposing of its limited partner interests in the Local Partnerships (the “Local Partnership Interests”).  As of January 2012, Registrant owns thirty-five of the fifty Local Partnership Interests originally acquired.  Registrant has served a demand on the local general partners (the “Local General Partners”) of all remaining Local Partnerships to commence a sale process to dispose of the Properties.  In the event a sale cannot be consummated, it is the General Partner’s intention to sell or assign Registrant’s Local Partnership Interests.  Following the final disposition of its Local Partnership Interests, Registrant intends to dissolve.  It is uncertain as to the amount, if any, that Registrant will receive with respect to each specific Property from such sales or assignments.  There can be no assurance as to when Registrant will dispose of its remaining Local Partnership Interests.

The Properties are principally comprised of subsidized and leveraged low-income multifamily residential complexes located throughout the United States and in Puerto Rico.  Many of the Local Partnerships receive rental subsidy payments, including payments under Section 8 of Title II of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 ("Section 8”); the subsidy agreements expire at various times.  Since October 1997, the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) has issued a series of directives related to project based Section 8 contracts that define owners’ notification responsibilities, advise owners of project based Section 8 properties of what their options are regarding the renewal of Section 8 contracts, provide guidance and procedures to owners, management agents, contract administrators and HUD staff concerning renewal of Section 8 contracts, provide policies and procedures on setting renewal rents and handling renewal rent adjustments and provide the requirements and procedures for opting-out of a Section 8 project based contract.  Registrant cannot reasonably predict legislative initiatives and governmental budget negotiations, the outcome of which could result in a reduction in funds available for the various federal and state administered housing programs including the Section 8 program.  Such changes could adversely affect the future net operating income before debt service (“NOI”) and debt structure of any or all Local Partnerships currently receiving such subsidy or similar subsidies.  Eight Local Partnerships’ Section 8 contracts, certain of which cover only certain rental units, are currently subject to renewal under applicable HUD guidelines.  Of the eight Local Partnerships noted above, three have entered into restructuring agreements, resulting in changes to both rent subsidy and mandatory debt service.

11

AMERICAN TAX CREDIT PROPERTIES II L.P.

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

The Local Partnerships have various financing structures which include (i) required debt service payments ("Mandatory Debt Service") and (ii) debt service payments that are payable only from available cash flow subject to the terms and conditions of the notes, which may be subject to specific laws, regulations and agreements with appropriate federal and state agencies ("Non-Mandatory Debt Service or Interest").  Registrant has no legal obligation to fund any operating deficits of the Local Partnerships.

In July 2011, Registrant withdrew from Littleton Avenue Community Village, L.P. (“Littleton”); there were no proceeds received by Registrant in connection with the withdrawal.  Registrant’s investment balance in Littleton, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 1999.

In November 2010, Auburn Hills sold its underlying Property to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of Auburn Hills, in connection with which Registrant received $1,035,516.  Of such amount, $48,894 was received in May 2011 and is reflected as due from local partnerships in the accompanying unaudited balance sheet as of March 30, 2011.  Registrant’s investment balance in Auburn Hills, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 2005.

In November 2009, Harborside Housing Limited Partnership (“Harborside”) sold its underlying Property to an unaffiliated third party, in connection with which Registrant has received a total of approximately $3,917,000 as of December 30, 2011.  Harborside continues in existence and there may be additional proceeds after further resolution of Harborside’s accounts.  Registrant’s investment balance in Harborside, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 2004.

The Local General Partner of Queen Lane Investors (“Queen Lane”) represents that, as a result of a dispute between the local housing agency (the “Agency”) and the Local General Partner of Queen Lane regarding the adequacy of certain unit repairs mandated by the Agency, the Local General Partner of Queen Lane requested that the Agency cancel the Section 8 voucher contract in connection with the Property.  As a result, the Property has been vacant since October 2007.  Two of Queen Lane’s mortgages matured in 2007 but have not been repaid or formally extended, representing principal and accrued interest of approximately $2,216,000 as of January 2012.  The Local General Partner of Queen Lane further represents that the lender has not issued a notice of default and that real estate taxes are in arrears approximately $57,000 as of December 2011.  The Local General Partner of Queen Lane is attempting to refinance the mortgages and make the necessary repairs to the Property.  Registrant’s investment balance in Queen Lane, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 2001.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The accompanying unaudited financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which requires Registrant to make certain estimates and assumptions.  The following section is a summary of certain aspects of those accounting policies that may require subjective or complex judgments and are most important to the portrayal of Registrant’s financial condition and results of operations.  Registrant believes that there is a low probability that the use of different estimates or assumptions in making these judgments would result in materially different amounts being reported in the accompanying unaudited financial statements.

· Registrant accounts for its investment in local partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting.

· If the book value of Registrant’s investment in a Local Partnership exceeds the estimated value derived by management, Registrant reduces its investment in any such Local Partnership and includes such reduction in equity in loss of investment in local partnerships.  Registrant makes such assessment at least annually in the fourth quarter of its fiscal year or whenever there are indications that a permanent impairment may have occurred.  A loss in value of an investment in a Local Partnership other than a temporary decline would be recorded as an impairment loss.  Impairment is measured by comparing the investment carrying amount to the estimated residual value of the investment.

12

AMERICAN TAX CREDIT PROPERTIES II L.P.

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

· Registrant does not consolidate the accounts and activities of the Local Partnerships, which are considered Variable Interest Entities as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810; Subtopic 10, because Registrant is not considered the primary beneficiary.  Registrant’s balance in investment in local partnerships represents the maximum exposure to loss in connection with such investments.  Registrant’s exposure to loss on the Local Partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying Properties as well as the financial strength of the Local General Partners.  In addition, the Local Partnerships’ partnership agreements grant the Local General Partners the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the Local Partnerships’ economic success.

Forward-Looking Information

As a cautionary note, with the exception of historical facts, the matters discussed in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Reform Act”).  Forward-looking statements may relate to, among other things, current expectations, forecasts of future events, future actions, future performance generally, business development activities, capital expenditures, strategies, the outcome of contingencies, future financial results, financing sources and availability and the effects of regulation and competition.  Words such as “anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “seek,” “estimate” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with discussions of future operating or financial performance signify forward-looking statements.  Registrant may also provide written forward-looking statements in other materials released to the public.  Such statements are made in good faith by Registrant pursuant to the “Safe Harbor” provisions of the Reform Act.  Registrant undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.  Such forward-looking statements involve known risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause Registrant’s actual results of operations or actions to be materially different from future results of operations or actions expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk.

Registrant’s investment in Pemberwick is subject to certain risk.  The fixed income securities in which Pemberwick invests are subject to interest rate risk, credit risk, prepayment risk, counterparty risk, municipal securities risk, liquidity risk, management risk, government security risk and valuation risk.  Typically, when interest rates rise, the market prices of fixed income securities go down.  Pemberwick is classified as “non-diversified,” and thus may invest most of its assets in securities issued by or representing a small number of issuers.  As a result, Pemberwick may be more susceptible to the risks associated with these particular issuers, or to a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence affecting these issuers.  These risks could adversely affect Pemberwick’s net asset value (“NAV”), yield and total return. An unrealized loss of $39,801 is reflected as accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying unaudited balance sheet as of December 30, 2011.  As of December 30, 2011, Registrant has earned $74,071 of interest revenue from its investment in Pemberwick.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Registrant in reports that Registrant files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and timely reported as provided in SEC rules and forms.  Registrant periodically reviews the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, including compliance with various laws and regulations that apply to its operations.  Registrant makes modifications to improve the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, and may take other corrective action, if its reviews identify a need for such modifications or actions.  In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, Registrant recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

13

AMERICAN TAX CREDIT PROPERTIES II L.P.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures (Continued).

Registrant has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the general partner of the General Partner, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the three months ended December 30, 2011.  Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the general partner of the General Partner concluded that Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 30, 2011.

There were no changes in Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended December 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.

2.     Investment in Local Partnerships

The Partnership originally acquired limited partner interests (the “Local Partnership Interests”) in fifty Local Partnerships representing capital contributions in the aggregate amount of $48,460,126, which includes voluntary advances made to certain Local Partnerships and all of which has been paid.  As of December 30, 2011, the Partnership holds a Local Partnership Interest in thirty-five Local Partnerships. The Partnership has no legal obligation to fund any operating deficits of the Local Partnerships.

For the nine months ended December 30, 2011, the investment in local partnerships activity consists of the following:

Investment in local partnerships as of March 30, 2011	$	761,205
Equity in income of investment in local partnerships		276,603	*
Distributions received from Local Partnerships		(194,038	)
Distributions classified as other income		194,038
Investment in local partnerships as of December 30, 2011	$	1,037,808

*In the event the operations of a Local Partnership result in a loss, equity in loss of each investment in Local Partnership allocated to the Partnership is recognized to the extent of the Partnership’s investment balance in each Local Partnership.  Equity in loss in excess of the Partnership’s investment balance in a Local Partnership is allocated to other partners’ capital in any such Local Partnership.

In July 2011, the Partnership withdrew from Littleton Avenue Community Village, L.P. (“Littleton”); there were no proceeds received by the Partnership in connection with the withdrawal.  The Partnership’s investment balance in Littleton, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 1999.

In November 2010, Auburn Hills Townhouses Limited Partnership (“Auburn Hills”) sold its underlying Property to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of Auburn Hills, in connection with which the Partnership received $1,035,516.  Of such amount, $48,894 was received in May 2011 and is reflected as due from local partnerships in the accompanying unaudited balance sheet as of March 30, 2011.  The Partnership’s investment balance in Auburn Hills, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 2005.

The Local General Partner of Queen Lane Investors (“Queen Lane”) represents that, as a result of a dispute between the local housing agency (the “Agency”) and the Local General Partner of Queen Lane regarding the adequacy of certain unit repairs mandated by the Agency, the Local General Partner of Queen Lane requested that the Agency cancel the Section 8 voucher contract in connection with the Property.  As a result, the Property has been vacant since October 2007.  Two of Queen Lane’s mortgages matured in 2007 but have not been repaid or formally extended, representing principal and accrued interest of approximately $2,216,000 as of January 2012.  The Local General Partner of Queen Lane further represents that the lender has not issued a notice of default and that real estate taxes are in arrears approximately $57,000 as of December 2011.  The Local General Partner of Queen Lane is attempting to refinance the mortgages and make the necessary repairs to the Property.  The Partnership’s investment balance in Queen Lane, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 2001.
