             JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND-II LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
                      (A MASSACHUSETTS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)



                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

1.     ORGANIZATION OF PARTNERSHIP

         John Hancock Realty Income Fund-II Limited Partnership (the
         "Partnership") was formed under the Massachusetts Uniform Limited
         Partnership Act on June 30, 1987. As of June 30, 2001, the partners in
         the Partnership consisted of John Hancock Realty Equities, Inc. (the
         "General Partner"), a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of John Hancock
         Life Insurance Company; John Hancock Realty Funding, Inc. (the "John
         Hancock Limited Partner"); John Hancock Income Fund-II Assignor, Inc.
         (the "Assignor Limited Partner"); and 3,981 Unitholders (the
         "Investors"). The Assignor Limited Partner holds 2,601,552 Assignee
         Units (the "Units"), representing economic and certain other rights
         attributable to Investor Limited Partnership Interests in the
         Partnership, for the benefit of the Investors. The John Hancock Limited
         Partner, the Assignor Limited Partner and the Investors are
         collectively referred to as the Limited Partners. The General Partner
         and the Limited Partners are collectively referred to as the Partners.
         The initial capital of the Partnership was $2,000, representing capital
         contributions of $1,000 by the General Partner and $1,000 from the John
         Hancock Limited Partner. The Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership
         of the Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") authorized the
         issuance of up to 5,000,000 Assignee Units at $20 per Unit. During the
         offering period, which terminated on January 2, 1989, 2,601,552 Units
         were sold and the John Hancock Limited Partner made additional capital
         contributions of $4,161,483. There were no changes in the number of
         Units outstanding subsequent to the termination of the offering period.

         The Partnership was engaged solely in the business of (i) acquiring,
         improving, holding for investment and disposing of existing
         income-producing retail, industrial and office properties on an
         all-cash basis, free and clear of mortgage indebtedness, and (ii)
         making mortgage loans consisting of conventional first mortgage loans
         and participating mortgage loans secured by income-producing retail,
         industrial and office properties. Although the Partnership's properties
         were acquired and held free and clear of mortgage indebtedness, the
         Partnership was able to incur mortgage indebtedness on its properties
         under certain circumstances as specified in the Partnership Agreement.

         The latest date on which the Partnership is due to terminate is
         December 31, 2017, unless it is sooner terminated in accordance with
         the terms of the Partnership Agreement. It is expected that, in the
         ordinary course of the Partnership's business, as is described in the
         following paragraph, the investments of the Partnership will be
         disposed of, and the Partnership terminated, before December 31, 2017.

         As initially stated in its Prospectus, it was expected that the
         Partnership would be dissolved upon the sale of its last remaining
         property, which at that time was expected to be within seven to ten
         years following the date such property was acquired by the Partnership.
         During 2000, the Partnership sold the last two properties in its
         portfolio, one of which is held through a joint venture, resulting in
         the termination of the operations of the Partnership. The Partnership
         will be dissolved in accordance with the terms of the Partnership
         Agreement, as soon as reasonably practicable.

2.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
         accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
         States for interim financial information and with the instructions for
         Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not
         include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting
         principles generally accepted in the United States for complete
         financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
         (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
         fair representation have been included. Operating results for the
         six-month period ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of
         the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2001.
         For further information, refer to the financial statements and
         footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form
         10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000.

         The net income/(loss) per Unit for the periods hereof was calculated by
         dividing the Investors' share of net income/(loss) by the number of
         Units outstanding at the end of such period.

3.     THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

         Distributable Cash from Operations (defined in the Partnership
         Agreement) is distributed 1% to the General Partner and the remaining
         99% in the following order of priority: first, to the Investors until
         they receive a 7% non-cumulative, non-compounded annual cash return on
         their Invested Capital (defined in the Partnership Agreement); second,
         to the General Partner to pay the Subordinated Allocation (defined in
         the Partnership Agreement) equal to 3 1/2% of Distributable Cash from
         Operations for managing the Partnership's activities; third, to the
         John Hancock Limited Partner until it receives a 7% non-cumulative,
         non-compounded annual cash return on its Invested Capital; fourth, to
         the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner in proportion to
         their respective Capital Contributions (defined in the Partnership
         Agreement), until they have received a 10% non-cumulative,
         non-compounded annual cash return on their Invested Capital; fifth, to
         the General Partner to pay the Incentive Allocation (defined in the
         Partnership Agreement) equal to 2 1/2% of Distributable Cash from
         Operations; and sixth, to the Investors and the John Hancock Limited
         Partner in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions. Any
         Distributable Cash from Operations which is available as a result of a
         reduction of working capital reserves funded by Capital Contributions
         of the Investors, will be distributed 100% to the Investors.

         Cash from a Sale, Financing or Repayment (defined in the Partnership
         Agreement) of a Partnership Investment, is first used to pay all debts
         and liabilities of the Partnership then due and then to fund any
         reserves for contingent liabilities. Cash from Sales, Financings or
         Repayments is then distributed and paid in the following order of
         priority: first, to the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner,
         with the distribution made between the Investors and the John Hancock
         Limited Partner in proportion to their respective Capital
         Contributions, until the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner
         have received an amount equal to their Invested Capital; second, to the
         Investors until they have received, after giving effect to all previous
         distributions of Distributable Cash from Operations and any previous
         distributions of Cash from Sales, Financings or Repayments after the
         return of their Invested Capital, the Cumulative Return on Investment
         (defined in the Partnership Agreement); third, to the John Hancock
         Limited Partner until it has received, after giving effect to all
         previous distributions of Distributable Cash from Operations and any
         previous distributions of Cash from Sales, Financings or Repayments
         after the return of its Invested Capital, the Cumulative Return on
         Investment; fourth, to the General Partner to pay any Subordinated
         Disposition Fees then payable pursuant to Section 6.4(c) of the
         Partnership Agreement; and fifth, 99% to the Investors and the John
         Hancock Limited Partner and 1% to the General Partner, with the
         distribution made between the Investors and the John Hancock Limited
         Partner in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions.

         Cash from the sale or repayment of the last of the Partnership's
         properties or mortgage loans is distributed in the same manner as Cash
         from Sales, Financings or Repayments, except that before any other
         distribution is made to the Partners, each Partner shall first receive
         from such cash, an amount equal to the then positive balance, if any,
         in such Partner's Capital Account after crediting or charging to such
         account the profits or losses for tax purposes from such sale. To the
         extent, if any, that a Partner is entitled to receive a distribution of
         cash based upon a positive balance in its capital account prior to such
         distribution, such distribution will be credited against the amount of
         such cash the Partner would have been entitled to receive based upon
         the manner of distribution of Cash from Sales, Financings or
         Repayments, as specified in the previous paragraph.

         Profits for tax purposes from the normal operations of the Partnership
         for each fiscal year are allocated to the Partners in the same amounts
         as Distributable Cash from Operations for that year. If such profits
         are less than Distributable Cash from Operations for any year, then
         they are allocated in proportion to the amounts of Distributable Cash
         from Operations allocated for that year. If such profits are greater
         than Distributable Cash from Operations for any year, they are
         allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the John Hancock Limited
         Partner and the Investors, with the allocation made between the John
         Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors in proportion to their
         respective Capital Contributions. Losses for tax purposes from the
         normal operations of the Partnership are allocated 1% to the General
         Partner and 99% to the John Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors,
         with the allocation made between the John Hancock Limited Partner and
         the Investors in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions.

         or omissions constituting fraud, negligence, misconduct or breach of
         fiduciary duty. The General Partner and its Affiliates performing
         services on behalf of the Partnership shall be entitled to indemnity
         from the Partnership for any loss, damage, or claim by reason of any
         act performed or omitted to be performed by the General Partner or such
         Affiliates in good faith on behalf of the Partnership and in a manner

         except that they shall not be entitled to be indemnified in respect of
         any loss, damage, or claim incurred by reason of fraud, negligence,
         misconduct, or breach of fiduciary duty. Any indemnity shall be
         provided out of and to the extent of Partnership assets only. The
         Partnership shall not advance any funds to the General Partner or its
         Affiliates for legal expenses and other costs incurred as a result of
         any legal action initiated against the General Partner or its
         Affiliates by a Limited Partner in the Partnership, except under
         certain specified circumstances.

         The General Partner will fund any deficit balance in its capital
         account prior to the dissolution of the Partnership.

4.     TRANSACTIONS WITH THE GENERAL PARTNER AND AFFILIATES

         Fees and expenses incurred and/or paid by the General Partner or its
         Affiliates on behalf of the Partnership during the six months ended

         affiliates are entitled to reimbursement from the Partnership were

         fulfilled.

During the offering period, from October 2, 1987 to January 2, 1989, the

John Hancock Limited Partners' contribution, which was used to pay sales
commissions) of $52,031,040. The proceeds of the offering were used to acquire
investments, fund reserves, and pay acquisition fees and organizational and
offering expenses.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

In addition to historical information, certain statements contained herein
contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended. Those statements appear in a number of places in this
Report and include statements regarding the intent, belief or expectations of
the General Partner with respect to, among other things, the prospective sale of
Partnership properties, repayment of mortgage loans, actions that would be taken
in the event of lack of liquidity, unanticipated leasing costs, repair and
maintenance expenses, litigation expenses and indemnification claims,
distributions to the General Partner and to Investors, the possible effects of
tenants vacating space at Partnership properties, the absorption of existing
retail space in certain geographical areas, and the impact of inflation.

Forward-looking statements involve numerous known and unknown risks and
uncertainties, and they are not guarantees of future performance. The following
factors, among others, could cause actual results or performance of the
Partnership and future events to differ materially from those expressed or
implied in the forward-looking statements: general economic and business
conditions; any and all general risks of real estate ownership, including
without limitation adverse changes in general economic conditions and adverse
local conditions, the fluctuation of rental income from properties, changes in
property taxes, utility costs or maintenance costs and insurance, fluctuations
of real estate values, competition for tenants, uncertainties about whether real
estate sales under contract will close; the ability of the Partnership to sell
its properties; and other factors detailed from time to time in the filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements,
which reflect the General Partner's analysis only as of the date hereof. The
Partnership assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements. See also
the Partnership's reports to be filed from time to time with the Securities and
Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As initially stated in its Prospectus, it was expected that the Partnership
would be dissolved upon the sale of its last remaining property, which at that
time was expected to be within seven to ten years following the date such
property was acquired by the Partnership. The Partnership disposed of the last
investment in its portfolio when QOCC-1 Associates sold the Quince Orchard
Corporate Center on September 29, 2000. QOCC-1 Associates was subsequently
liquidated in December 2000. The sale of this last remaining investment resulted
in the termination of the operations of the Partnership, and the Partnership
will be dissolved, in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement as
soon as reasonably practicable. At such time as all liabilities with respect to
the Partnership are resolved, the General Partner will make a final distribution
of net assets to the Limited Partners, as soon as practicable. No assurances can
be given as to whether any distribution can be made after all liabilities of the
Partnership are resolved. Such final distribution, if any, will result in the
liquidation and termination of the Partnership. At such time of such final
distribution, the outstanding Units will be canceled and, in accordance with
federal securities laws, they will be de-registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, after which time the Partnership will no longer be required
to file periodic reports with the Commission.

ITEM 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)

At June 30, 2001 the Partnership had $3,535,363 in cash and cash equivalents.

The Partnership has a working capital reserve with a current balance of
approximately $3.4 million. The General Partner anticipates that such amount
should be sufficient to satisfy the Partnership's general liquidity requirements
as the Partnership's business is wound down. Liquidity would, however, be
materially adversely affected by significant operating and liquidation costs
(including but not limited to litigation expenses). If any or all of these
events were to occur, to the extent that the working capital reserve would be
insufficient to satisfy the cash requirements of the Partnership, it is
anticipated that additional funds would be obtained through a reduction of cash
distributions to Investors, bank loans, short-term loans from the General
Partner or its Affiliates.

There was no cash distribution to the Investors during the six months ended June
30, 2001. As a result of the disposition by the Partnership of all of its
remaining properties during 2000, the General Partner has determined that it is
in the best interests of the Partnership to retain rather than distribute to
Investors, net cash provided by the Partnership's normal operations in order to
fund cash reserves for contingencies, as is permitted by the Partnership
Agreement. Accordingly, no cash distributions will be made to the Investors
until the final distribution, if any, as discussed above.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Partnership generated a net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2001 of
$11,717, as compared to net loss of $1,265,911 for the same period in 2000. The
prior period results include a $2,017,976 write-down of the value of Park Square
Shopping Center. Excluding this amount, net income for the six months ended June
30, 2001 decreased by $763,782, or 102%. This decrease is primarily due to a
decrease in rental income resulting from the sale of Park Square Shopping Center
in August 2000 and a decrease in income from joint venture resulting from the
sale of the Partnership's joint venture investment in Quince Orchard Corporate
Center in September 2000.

Average occupancy for the Partnership's investments was as follows:

                                                     Six Months Ended June 30,
                                                    2001                 2000
                                                    ----                 ----
 Park Square Shopping Center                         N/A                  88%
 Quince Orchard Corporate Center
   (Affiliated Joint Venture)                        N/A                 100%

Rental income for the six months ended June 30, 2001 decreased by $487,088 or
92%, as compared to the same period during 2000 primarily due to the sale of the
Park Square Shopping Center on August 30, 2000. Included in the results for the
current period are real estate tax reimbursements of approximately $31,000 that
were received by the Partnership from a tenant that were calculated subsequent
to the sale of the property.

Income from joint venture for the period ended June 30, 2001 decreased by
$483,187, or 100%, as compared to the same period during 2000 due to the sale of
the Partnership's joint venture interest in Quince Orchard Corporate Center in
September 2000.

Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2001 decreased by
$87,302, or 100%, as compared to the same period in 2000 due to the sale of the
of the Park Square Shopping Center in August 2000.

Property operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2001 decreased by
$56,834, or 100%, as compared to the same period in 2000 due to the sale of the
Park Square Shopping Center in August 2000.

ITEM 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2001
increased by $16,107, or 13%, as compared to the same period in 2000 primarily
due to a payment during the current period of final legal expenses in connection
with the previously resolved class action.

Amortization of deferred expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2001
decreased by $68,475, or 100%, as compared to the same period during 2000
primarily due to the fact that acquisition fees paid to the General Partner were
fully amortized during 2000 when the last two properties were sold.

The General Partner believes that inflation has had no significant impact on the
Partnership's operations during the six months ended June 30, 2001, and the
General Partner anticipates that inflation will not have a significant impact
during the remainder of 2001.

              Operations should not be considered as an alternative to net
              income (i.e., not an indicator of performance) or to reflect
              cash flows or availability of discretionary funds.
