NATIONAL TAX CREDIT INVESTORS II (a California limited partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2002 NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES General The information contained in the following notes to the financial statements is condensed from that which would appear in the annual audited financial statements; accordingly, the financial statements included herein should be reviewed in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto contained in the annual report for the year ended December 31, 2001 prepared by National Tax Credit Investors II (the "Partnership"). Accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year end. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. In the opinion of the Partnership, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2002 and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the three and six months then ended. Organization The Partnership was formed under the California Revised Limited Partnership Act on January 12, 1990. The Partnership was formed to invest primarily in other limited partnerships ("Local Partnerships") which own and operate multifamily housing complexes that are eligible for low income housing tax credits. ("Tax Credits"). The Partnership offered up to 100,000 units of limited partnership interests ("Units") at $1,000 per Unit. The offering terminated on April 22, 1992, at which date a total of 72,404 Units had been sold amounting to $72,404,000 in capital contributions. Offering expenses of $9,412,521 were incurred in connection with the sale of such limited partner interests. The general partner of the Partnership is National Partnership Investments Corp. (the "General Partner" or "NAPICO"), a California corporation. Prior to March 11, 2002, Casden Properties Inc. owned a 95.25% economic interest in NAPICO, with the balance owned by Casden Investment Corporation ("CIC"). CIC, which is wholly owned by Alan I. Casden, owned 95% of the voting common stock of NAPICO prior to March 11, 2002. The special limited partner of the Partnership (the "Special Limited Partner") is PaineWebber TC Partners, L.P., a Virginia limited partnership. On December 3, 2001, Casden Properties Inc., entered into a merger agreement and certain other transaction documents with Apartment Investment and Management Company, a Maryland corporation ("AIMCO") and certain of its subsidiaries, pursuant to which, on March 11, 2002, AIMCO acquired Casden Properties Inc. and its subsidiaries, including 100% of the stock of NAPICO. The General Partner has a one percent interest in operating profits and losses of the Partnership. The limited partners will be allocated the remaining 99 percent interest in proportion to their respective investments. The Partnership shall continue in full force and in effect until December 31, 2030 unless terminated earlier pursuant to the terms of its Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (a "Partnership Agreement") or operation of law. Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and money market mutual funds. The Partnership has its cash and cash equivalents on deposit primarily with one money market mutual fund. Such cash and cash equivalents are uninsured. Method of Accounting for Investment in Limited Partnerships The Partnership's investment in Local Partnerships are accounted for on the equity method. Acquisition, selection and other costs related to the Partnership's investments are capitalized and are being amortized on a straight line basis over the estimated lives of the underlying assets, which is generally 30 years. Net Income (Loss) Per Limited Partnership Interest Net income (loss) per limited partnership interest was computed by dividing the limited partners' share of net income (loss) by the weighted average number of limited partnership interests outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of limited partner interests was 72,404 for the periods presented. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Partnership reviews long-lived assets to determine if there has been any permanent impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Partnership recognizes an impairment loss. NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS The Partnership holds limited partnership interests in 33 local partnerships (the "Local Partnerships"), located in 22 different states. As a limited partner of the Local Partnerships, the Partnership does not have authority over day-to-day management of the Local Partnerships or their properties (the "Apartment Complexes"). The general partners responsible for management of the Local Partnerships (the "Local Operating General Partners") are not affiliated with the General Partner of the Partnership, except as discussed below. At June 30, 2002, the Local Partnerships own residential projects consisting of 3,325 apartment units. The Partnership, as a limited partner, is generally entitled to 99 percent of the operating profits and losses of the Local Partnerships. National Tax Credit, Inc. II ("NTC-II") an affiliate of the General Partner, serves either as a special limited partner or non-managing administrative general partner in which case it receives .01 percent of operating profits and losses of the Local Partnership, or as the Local Operating General Partner of the Local Partnership in which case it is entitled to .09 percent of the operating profits and losses of the Local Partnership. The Partnership is generally entitled to receive 50 percent of the net cash flow generated by the Apartment Complexes, subject to repayment of any loans made to the Local Partnerships (including loans made by NTC-II or an affiliate), repayment for funding of development deficit and operating deficit guarantees by the Local Operating General Partners or their affiliates (excluding NTC-II and its affiliates), and certain priority payments to the Local Operating General Partners other than NTC-II or its affiliates. The Partnership's allocable share of losses from Local Partnerships are recognized in the financial statements until the related investment account is reduced to a zero balance. Losses incurred after the investment account is reduced to zero will not be recognized. Distributions received by the Partnership from the Local Partnerships are accounted for as a return of capital until the investment balance is reduced to zero or to a negative amount equal to further capital contributions required. Subsequent distributions received will be recognized as income. The following is a summary of the investments in Local Partnerships for the six months ended June 30, 2002: Balance, beginning of period $11,184,234 Capital contributions 72,313 Equity in losses of limited partnerships (511,973) Distributions recognized as a return of capital (88,203) Amortization of capitalized acquisition costs and fees (47,203) Balance, end of period $10,609,168 The following are unaudited combined estimated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 for the limited partnerships in which the Partnership has investments:

Cottages of North St. Paul During the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Partnership sold its investment in the Cottages of North St. Paul. As the Partnership had no investment balance related to this Local Partnership, the proceeds of $1,615,612 that were received are being reported as gain on sale of investment in limited partnership on the accompanying statement of operations. Cottonwood During 2001, the Partnership sold its investment in the Cottonwood Local Partnership. Of the total proceeds, $221,280 was due to the Partnership as of December 31, 2001. This amount was received during the six months ended June 30, 2002. Wade Walton Due to operating deficits, the Wade Walton Local Partnership which owns a property in Clarksdale, Mississippi has been unable to service its mortgage and the lender commenced foreclosure proceedings. The Local Partnership then commenced bankruptcy proceedings on July 20, 1999 in order to stay the foreclosure sale and reorganize under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. The bankruptcy court subsequently terminated the automatic stay and a foreclosure sale occurred on May 31, 2002. The Partnership had no investment balance related to this Local Partnership. NOTE 3 - RESTRICTED CASH Restricted cash represents funds in escrow to be used to fund operating deficits, if any, of one of the Local Partnerships, as defined in the Local Partnership Agreement. NOTE 4 - CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS PAYABLE Capital contributions payable represent amounts which are due at various times based on conditions specified in the respective Local Partnership agreements. The capital contributions payable are unsecured and non-interest bearing. These amounts are generally due upon the Local Partnership achieving certain operating or financing benchmarks. NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Under the terms of its Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is obligated to the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner for the following fees: (a) An annual Partnership management fee in an amount equal to 0.5 percent of invested assets (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) is payable to the General Partner and Special Limited Partner. For the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, $334,062 and $366,626, respectively, has been expensed. The unpaid balance at June 30, 2002 is $1,394,710. As of June 30, 2002, the fees and expenses due the General Partner and Special Limited Partner exceeded the Partnership's cash. The partners, during the forthcoming year, are not expected to demand payment of amounts due in excess of such cash or such that the Partnership would not have sufficient operating cash; however, the Partnership will remain liable for all such amounts. (b) A property disposition fee is payable to the General Partner in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) one-half of the competitive real estate commission that would have been charged by unaffiliated third parties providing comparable services in the area where the apartment complex is located, or (ii) 3 percent of the sale price received in connection with the sale or disposition of the apartment complex or local partnership interest, but in no event will the property disposition fee and all amounts payable to affiliated real estate brokers in connection with any such sale exceed in the aggregate, the lesser of the competitive rate (as described above) or 6 percent of such sale price. Receipt of the property disposition fee will be subordinated to the distribution of sale or refinancing proceeds by the Partnership until the limited partners have proceeds in an aggregate amount equal to (i) their 6 percent priority return for any year not theretofore satisfied (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) and (ii) an amount equal to the aggregate adjusted investment (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of the limited partners. No disposition fees have been paid. (c) The Partnership reimburses NAPICO for certain expenses. The reimbursement to NAPICO was $32,628 and $32,627 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and is included in administrative expenses. NTC II is the Local Operating General Partner in eight of the Partnership's 33 Local Partnerships. In addition, NTC II is either a special limited partner or an administrative general partner in each Local Partnership. An affiliate of the General Partner is currently managing four properties owned by Local Partnerships. The Local Partnerships pay the affiliate property management fees in the amount of 5 percent of their gross rental revenues and data processing fees. The amounts paid were $73,833 and $78,135 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, an affiliate of the General Partner advanced $200,310 to the Partnership for operating expenses. This advance was non-interest bearing and was repaid subsequent to June 30, 2002. NOTE 6 - CONTINGENCIES On March 28, 2002, the local operating general partner of Sheboygan Apartments Limited Partnership brought action against the Partnership and the General Partner alleging that the parties breached the purchase agreement by refusing to close a transaction regarding the sale of the property. The parties are now engaged in settlement discussions regarding the dilution of a portion of the Partnership's interest to the local operating general partner. The General Partner of the Partnership is involved in various other lawsuits arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management and the General Partner, the claims will not result in any material liability to the Partnership. NOTE 7 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments. The carrying amount of other assets and liabilities reported on the balance sheet that require such disclosure approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity. NOTE 8 - GAIN ON LEGAL SETTLEMENT AND SUBSEQUENT EVENT During 2001, the Partnership and an affiliated partnership filed a suit against several parties for breach of fiduciary duties and breach of the partnership agreements of Quivera Limited Partnership, in which the Partnership has invested, and another Local Limited Partnership in which the affiliated partnership is invested. The property in each respective Local Limited Partnership had been refinanced during 2001; however, the proceeds from the refinancing were being held at the Local Limited Partnership instead of being distributed. On June 28, 2002, the Partnership received $107,900 from one of the parties involved in this legal action as part of a settlement agreement. This amount is shown as gain on legal settlement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 on the accompanying statement of operations. On August 6, 2002, the Partnership received $1,499,957 as its share of the refinancing proceeds of Quivera Limited Partnership. This amount will be reported as distribution from limited partnerships recognized as income during the three months ended September 30, 2002 as the Partnership's investment in this Local Limited Partnership is zero. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Capital Resources and Liquidity The Partnership raised $72,404,000 from investors by a public offering. The Partnership's public offering ended April 22, 1992. The proceeds have been used to invest in Local Partnerships which own and operate Apartment Complexes that are eligible for Tax Credits. It is not expected that any of the Local Partnerships in which the Partnership invests will generate cash from operations sufficient to provide distributions to the Limited Partners in any material amount. Such cash from operations, if any, would first be used to meet operating expenses of the Partnership. The Partnership's investments will not be readily marketable and may be affected by adverse general economic conditions which, in turn, could substantially increase the risk of operating losses for the Apartment Complexes, the Local Partnerships and the Partnership. These problems may result from a number of factors, many of which cannot be controlled by the General Partner. The Partnership does not have the ability to assess Limited Partners for additional capital contributions to provide capital if needed by the Partnership or Local Partnerships. Accordingly, if circumstances arise that cause the Local Partnerships to require capital in addition to that contributed by the Partnership and any equity of the local general partners, the only sources from which such capital needs will be able to be satisfied (other than the limited reserves available at the Partnership level) will be (i) third-party debt financing (which may not be available if, as expected, the Apartment Complexes owned by the Local Partnerships are already substantially leveraged), (ii) other equity sources (which could reduce the amount of Tax Credits being allocated to the Partnership, adversely affect the Partnership's interest in operating cash flow and/or proceeds of sale or refinancing of the Apartment Complexes and possibly even result in adverse tax consequences to the Limited Partners), or (iii) the sale or disposition of Apartment Complexes. There can be no assurance that any of such sources would be readily available in sufficient proportions to fund the capital requirements of the Local Partnerships. If such sources are not available, the Local Partnerships would risk foreclosure on their Apartment Complexes if they were unable to renegotiate the terms of their first mortgages and any other debt secured by the Apartment Complexes, which would have significant adverse tax consequences to the Limited Partners. Reserves of the Partnership and reserves of the Local Partnerships may be increased or decreased from time to time by the General Partner or the local general partner, as the case may be, in order to meet anticipated costs and expenses. The amount of cash flow available for distributions and/or sale and refinancing proceeds, if any, which is available for distribution to the Limited Partners may be affected accordingly. Results of Operations The Partnership was formed to provide various benefits to its Limited Partners. It is not expected that any of the Local Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested will generate cash flow sufficient to provide for distributions to Limited Partners in any material amount. The Partnership accounts for its investments in the Local Partnerships on the equity method, thereby adjusting its investment balance by its proportionate share of the income or loss of the Local Partnerships. In general, in order to avoid recapture of Housing Tax Credits, the Partnership does not expect that it will dispose of its Local Partnership Interests or approve the sale by a Local Partnership of any Apartment Complex prior to the end of the applicable 15-year Compliance Period. Because of (i) the nature of the Apartment Complexes, (ii) the difficulty of predicting the resale market for low-income housing 15 or more years in the future, and (iii) the inability of the Partnership to directly cause the sale of Apartment Complexes by local general partners, but generally only to require such local general partners to use their respective best efforts to find a purchaser for the Apartment Complexes, it is not possible at this time to predict whether the liquidation of substantially all of the Partnership's assets and the disposition of the proceeds, if any, in accordance with the partnership agreement will be able to be accomplished promptly at the end of the 15-year period. If a Local Partnership is unable to sell an Apartment Complex, it is anticipated that the local general partner will either continue to operate such Apartment Complex or take such other actions as the local general partner believes to be in the best interest of the Local Partnership. In addition, circumstances beyond the control of the General Partner may occur during the Compliance Period which would require the Partnership to approve the disposition of an Apartment Complex prior to the end of the Compliance Period. Except for interim investments in highly liquid debt investments, the Partnership's investments are entirely interests in other Local Partnerships owning Apartment Complexes. Funds temporarily not required for such investments in projects are invested in these highly liquid debt investments earning interest income as reflected in the statements of operations. These interim investments can be easily converted to cash to meet obligations as they arise. The Partnership, as a Limited Partner in the Local Partnerships in which it has invested, is subject to the risks incident to the construction, management, and ownership of improved real estate. The Partnership investments are also subject to adverse general economic conditions, and accordingly, the status of the national economy, including substantial unemployment and concurrent inflation, could increase vacancy levels, rental payment defaults, and operating expenses, which in turn, could substantially increase the risk of operating losses for the Apartment Complexes. The Partnership accounts for its investments in the local limited partnerships on the equity method, thereby adjusting its investment balance by its proportionate share of the income or loss of the Local Partnerships. Distributions received from limited partnerships are recognized as return of capital until the investment balance has been reduced to zero or to a negative amount equal to future capital contributions required. Subsequent distributions received are recognized as income. Operating expenses consist primarily of recurring general and administrative expenses and professional fees for services rendered to the Partnership. In addition, an annual partnership management fee in an amount equal to 0.5 percent of invested assets is payable to the General Partner and Special Limited Partner. The management fee represents the annual recurring fee which will be paid to the General Partner for its continuing management of Partnership affairs. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Partnership sold its investment in the Cottages of North St. Paul. As the Partnership had no investment balance related to this Local Partnership, the proceeds of $1,615,612 that were received are being reported as gain on sale of investment in limited partnership on the accompanying statement of operations. During 2001, the Partnership sold its investment in the Cottonwood Local Partnership. Of the total proceeds, $221,280 was due to the Partnership as of December 31, 2001. This amount was received during the six months ended June 30, 2002. Due to operating deficits, the Wade Walton Local Partnership which owns a property in Clarksdale, Mississippi has been unable to service its mortgage and the lender commenced foreclosure proceedings. The Local Partnership then commenced bankruptcy proceedings on July 20, 1999 in order to stay the foreclosure sale and reorganize under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. The bankruptcy court subsequently terminated the automatic stay and a foreclosure sale occurred on May 31, 2002. The Partnership had no investment balance related to this Local Partnership. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On March 28, 2002, the local operating general partner of Sheboygan Apartments Limited Partnership brought action against the Partnership and the General Partner alleging that the parties breached the purchase agreement by refusing to close a transaction regarding the sale of the property. The parties are now engaged in settlement discussions regarding the dilution of a portion of the Partnership's interest to the local operating general partner. The General Partner of the Partnership is involved in various other lawsuits arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management and the General Partner, the claims will not result in any material liability to the Partnership. ITEM 6.
