                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE PARTNERSHIP AND ITS ORGANIZATION:

Century Pacific Tax Credit Housing Fund II, a California limited partnership
(the "Partnership" or "CPTCHF II") was formed on September 2, 1988 for the
purpose of raising capital and selling limited partnership interests and then
acquiring limited partnership interests in partnerships (the "Operating
Partnerships") owning and operating existing residential apartment properties
(the "Properties").

The general partners of the Partnership are Century Pacific Capital II
Corporation, a California corporation, ("CPII") and Irwin Jay Deutch, an
individual (collectively, the "General Partners"). The General Partners and
affiliates of the General Partners (the "General Partners and Affiliates") have
interest in the Partnership and receive compensation from the Partnership and
the Operating Partnerships (Note 3).

The Properties qualify for the "Low-Income Housing Tax Credit" established by
Section 42 of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 (the "Low-Income Housing Tax Credit").
These properties are leveraged low-income multifamily residential complexes and
some receive one or more forms of assistance from federal, state or local
governments, or agencies (the "Government Agencies") while others do not receive
any subsidy from Government Agencies although some may have mortgage loans
insured by a Government Agency.

In September 1988, the Partnership began raising capital from sales of limited
partnership interests, at $1,000 per unit. The limited partnership offering
closed as of December 31, 1989, with 5,754 units having been sold.

As of September 30, 2002, the Partnership has acquired limited partnership
interest of 90% in Washington Courts Limited Partnership and 60% in
Laurel-Clayton Limited Partnership, two existing Operating Partnerships which
own apartment rental properties.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Century Pacific Tax Credit
Housing Fund II (the Company) as of September 30, 2002 and March 31, 2002 (the
March 31, 2002 financial information included herein has been extracted from the
Companys audited financial statements on Form 10-K) and for the three and six
months ended September 30, 2002 have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they
do not include all of the information


                                       7
<PAGE>
and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the
Partnerships management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the financial statements
have been made.

The statement of operations for the three and six months ended September 30,2002
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
entire year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and related notes thereto included on Form 10-K for the year ended
March 31, 2002.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Method of Accounting for Investments in Operating Partnerships

The Partnership uses the equity method to account for its investment in the
Operating Partnerships in which it has invested (Note 4).

Under the equity method of accounting, the investment is carried at cost and
adjusted for the Partnership's share of the Operating Partnerships' results of
operations and by cash distributions received. Equity in the loss of each
Operating Partnership allocated to the Partnership is not recognized to the
extent that the investment balance would become negative.

Basis of Accounting

The Partnership maintains its financial records on the tax basis. Memorandum
entries, while not recorded in the records of the Partnership, have been made in
the financial statements to reflect accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America.

On August 7, 1991, management of the Partnership changed from a calendar year
end to a fiscal year end of March 31 for financial reporting purposes.
Accordingly, the Partnership's quarterly periods end June 30, September 30, and
December 31. The Operating Partnerships, for financial reporting purposes, have
a calendar year. The Partnership, as well as the Operating Partnerships, have a
calendar year for income tax purposes.

Syndication Costs

Public offering costs have been recorded as a direct reduction to the capital
accounts of the Limited Partners.

Organization, Acquisition and Other Costs

Costs incurred in organizing the Partnership and expenditures made by the
Partnership in connection with its acquiring limited partnership interest in
Operating Partnerships are deferred and amortized over a period of sixty months
on a straight-line basis


                                       8
<PAGE>
or capitalized as investments in Operating Partnerships. Other fees and expenses
of the Partnership are recognized as expenses in the period the related services
are received.

Income Taxes

No provision has been made for income taxes in the accompanying financial
statements since such taxes and/or the recapture of the Low-Income Housing Tax
Credits benefits received, if any, are the liability of the individual partners.
The Partnership uses the accrual method of accounting for tax purposes.

Statement of Cash Flows - Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, the Partnership considers all
highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity date of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.

NOTE 3 - TRANSACTIONS WITH THE GENERAL PARTNERS AND AFFILIATES OF THE GENERAL
         PARTNERS:

The General Partners of the Partnership are CPII and Irwin Jay Deutch. Century
Pacific Placement Corporation ("CPPC"), an affiliate of the General Partners,
served as the broker-dealer- manager for sales of the limited partnership
interests in the Partnership. Century Pacific Realty Corporation ("CPRC"), an
affiliate of CPII, is a general partner in each of the Operating Partnerships.
The General Partners have an aggregate one percent interest in the Partnership.
CPRC has a one-half percent interest in each of the Operating Partnerships.

The General Partners and their Affiliates receive compensation and reimbursement
of expenses from the Partnership, as set forth in the limited partnership
agreement, for their services in managing the Partnership and its business.
Pursuant to the partnership agreement, the Partnership is required to pay CPII
an annual Management Fee for its services in connection with the management
affairs of the Partnership. The annual Management Fee is equal to .5% of
Invested Assets (as defined by the partnership agreement). The General Partners
and Affiliates also receive compensation and reimbursement of expenses from the
Operating Partnerships. This compensation and reimbursement include services
provided to the Partnership during its offering stage, acquisition stage and
operational stage.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

PLUMLEY VILLAGE - Worcester, Massachusetts


                                       10
<PAGE>
Plumley Village consists of 430 units situated on approximately 16 acres of land
adjacent to Downtown Worcester. There is one 16 story high-rise and three
low-rise structures on the site. The property has good freeway access and is
convenient to stores, churches and hospitals.

The property is 98% occupied during the quarter. Cash flow was sufficient to
cover operating expenses. Property rents were last increased in May 1995,
bringing the annual gross potential rental revenue to approximately $4,292,000.

WASHINGTON COURTS - Chicago, Illinois

Washington Courts consists of 103 units on several sites in the Austin
neighborhood of Chicago. The property is convenient to banks, schools, churches
and commercial areas.

The property averaged a 94% occupancy rate during the quarter. Cash flow was
sufficient to cover operating expenses. Property rents were increased 1.0% in
May 1996, increasing the annual gross potential rental revenue to approximately
$1,059,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership is currently experiencing a liquidity problem. Under the
Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is entitled to receive distributions of
surplus cash from the Operating Partnerships, which is to provide the funds
necessary for the Partnership to meet its administrative expenses and pay the
Partnership management fee. At the present time, the Operating Partnerships have
not generated sufficient cash distributions to fund the Partnerships expenses.
As a result of the foregoing, the Partnership has been dependent upon its
affiliates and the General Partners for continued financial support to meet its
expenses. Though, there can be no assurance, management believes that affiliates
and/or the General Partners, though not required to do so, will continue to fund
operations of the Partnership and defer receipt of payment of allocated overhead
admin- istrative expenses and partnership management fees. Allocated
administrative expenses paid or accrued to affiliates and the General Partners
represent reimbursement of the actual cost of goods and materials used for or by
the Partnership, salaries, related payroll costs and other administrative items
incurred or allocated, and direct expenses incurred in rendering legal,
accounting/bookkeeping, computer, printing and public relations services. Items
excluded from the overhead allocation include overhead expenses of the General
Partners, including rent and salaries of employees not specifically performing
the services described above. Unpaid allocated administrative expenses and
partnership management fees, an annual amount up to .5% of invested assets, will
accrue for payment in future operating years.

The Partnership is not expected to have access to any significant sources of
financing. Accordingly, if unforeseen contingencies arise that cause an
Operating Partnership to


                                       11
<PAGE>
require additional capital to sustain operations, in addition to that previously
contributed by the Partnership, the source of the required capital needs may be
from (i) limited reserves from the Partnership (which may include distributions
received from Operating Partnerships that would otherwise be available for
distribution to partners), (ii) debt financing at the Operating Partnership
level (which may not be available), or (iii) additional equity contributions
from the general partner of the Operating Partnerships (which may not be
available). There can be no assurance that any of these sources would be readily
available to provide for possible additional capital requirements, which may be
necessary to sustain the operations of the Operating Partnerships.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

      Due to the nature of our foregoing operations, we have concluded that
there is no material market risk exposure and, therefore, no quantitative
tabular disclosures are required.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

      (a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

            The Partnerships Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
have reviewed and evaluated the effective- ness of the Partnerships disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 240.13a-14(c) and
15d-14(c) as of a date within ninety days before the filing date of this
quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, they have concluded that the
Partnerships current disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely
providing them with material information relating to the Partnership required to
be disclosed in the reports the Partnership files or submits under the Exchange
Act.

      (b) Changes in Internal Controls

            There have not been any significant changes in the Partnerships
internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these
controls subsequent to November, 2002, the date of evaluation. There were no
significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, and, therefore, no corrective
actions were taken.
