                          Notes to Financial Statements
                                   (Unaudited)

                                  June 30, 1997

NOTE 1.
- -------

McNeil Real Estate  Fund XXII,  L.P.,  (the  "Partnership"),  formerly  known as
Southmark  Realty  Partners  II, Ltd.,  was  organized on November 30, 1984 as a
limited  partnership  under the  provisions of the  California  Revised  Limited
Partnership Act to acquire and operate  commercial and  residential  properties.
The general  partner of the Partnership is McNeil  Partners,  L.P. (the "General
Partner"),  a Delaware  limited  partnership,  an  affiliate of Robert A. McNeil
("McNeil").  The principal place of business for the Partnership and the General
Partner is 13760 Noel Road, Suite 600, LB70, Dallas, Texas, 75240.

In the opinion of management,  the financial  statements reflect all adjustments
necessary for a fair  presentation of the Partnership's  financial  position and
results  of  operations.  All  adjustments  were of a normal  recurring  nature.
However,  the results of  operations  for the six months ended June 30, 1997 are
not  necessarily  indicative  of the results to be expected  for the year ending
December 31, 1997.

NOTE 2.
- -------

The  financial  statements  should  be read in  conjunction  with the  financial
statements  contained in the  Partnership's  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the
year  ended  December  31,  1996,  and the  notes  thereto,  as  filed  with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission,  which is available upon request by writing
to McNeil Real Estate Fund XXII,  L.P.,  c/o The Herman Group,  2121 San Jacinto
St., 26th Floor, Dallas, Texas 75201.

NOTE 3.
- -------

The  accompanying  financial  statements  have been  prepared  assuming that the
Partnership  will  continue as a going  concern.  The  Partnership  has suffered
recurring losses from operations and the Partnership's  only property is in need
of major capital improvements in order to maintain occupancy and rental rates at
a level to continue to support operations and debt service.

While the Partnership has begun a program to complete such capital  improvements
to be funded from existing cash reserves,  there can be no assurances  that such
reserves will be sufficient to complete all needed improvements.

These  conditions raise  substantial  doubt about the  Partnership's  ability to
continue  as a going  concern.  The  financial  statements  do not  include  any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 4.
- -------





The  Partnership  pays property  management fees equal to 5% of the gross rental
receipts for its  residential  property to McNeil Real Estate  Management,  Inc.
("McREMI"),  an affiliate  of McNeil,  for  providing  property  management  and
leasing services.

The  Partnership  reimburses  McREMI  for  its  costs,  including  overhead,  of
administering the Partnership's affairs.

The  Partnership  is incurring an asset  management  fee which is payable to the
General  Partner.  Through 1999, the asset management fee is calculated as 1% of
the  Partnership's  tangible asset value.  Tangible asset value is determined by
using the greater of (i) an amount calculated by applying a capitalization  rate
of 9% to the annualized net operating income of each property or (ii) a value of
$10,000 per apartment  unit for  residential  property to arrive at the property
tangible  asset value.  The property  tangible  asset value is then added to the
book value of all other assets  excluding  intangible  items. The fee percentage
decreases  subsequent to 1999. Total accrued but unpaid asset management fees of
$1,206,054 were outstanding at June 30, 1997.

Compensation  and  reimbursements  paid to or  accrued  for the  benefit  of the
General Partner and its affiliates are as follows:

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
- -------   ----------------------------------------------------------------
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
          ---------------------

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

The Partnership was provided $386,630 of cash by operating activities during the
first six months of 1997 as compared  to  $263,288  for the same period in 1996.
Cash paid to suppliers  decreased by $111,470 mainly due to a receipt of $83,000
for  property  replacements  from  escrow  previously  held by HUD,  the  former
mortgage  holder  of  Harbour  Club  III  Apartments.  Cash  paid to  affiliates
increased by $30,866 due to the resumption of overhead  payments to an affiliate
of the General Partner for administering the Partnership's affairs in 1997.

Cash used for  additions to real estate was $57,420  during the first six months
of 1997 as compared to $147,806 during the same period of 1996. A greater amount
was spent in 1996 at  Harbour  Club III for  paving  and  hallway  upgrades.  In
addition,  the replacement of appliances,  which met the Partnership's  criteria
for capitalization of replacements in 1996, were expensed in 1997.

Cash used for principal payments on mortgage note payable was $44,372 during the
first six months of 1997 as compared to $41,382 for the same period of 1996.

Short-term liquidity:

At June 30, 1997, the  Partnership  held $887,300 of cash and cash  equivalents.
The General Partner considers this level of cash reserves to be adequate to meet
the Partnership's operating needs. The General Partner believes that anticipated
operating results for 1997 will be sufficient to fund the Partnership's budgeted
capital  improvements  for  1997  and  to  repay  the  current  portion  of  the
Partnership's  mortgage  note.  Effective  January 23, 1997,  the mortgage  note
payable was sold by HUD to an unaffiliated buyer.

Long-term liquidity:

The Partnership  determined to evaluate market and other economic  conditions to
establish the optimum time to commence liquidation of the Partnership's asset in
accordance with the terms of the Amended Partnership  Agreement.  Although there
can be no  assurance  as to the  timing of the  liquidation  due to real  estate
market conditions, the general difficulty of disposing of real estate, and other
general economic  factors,  it is anticipated that such liquidation would result
in the dissolution of the Partnership followed by a liquidating  distribution to
Unit holders by December 2001.

Distributions:

To maintain adequate cash balances of the Partnership,  distributions to Current
Income Unit holders were suspended in 1988.  There have been no distributions to
Growth/Shelter  Units  holders.   Distributions  to  Unit  holders  will  remain
suspended  for the  foreseeable  future.  The General  Partner will  continue to
monitor  the cash  reserves  and working  capital  needs of the  Partnership  to
determine when cash flows will support distributions to the Unit holders.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------

The occupancy  rate at Harbour Club III Apartments was 96% at June 30, 1997. The
occupancy  rate at December 31, 1996,  was 94%.  Harbour Club III Apartments was
able to provide  enough cash flow from  operations  to meet  ordinary  operating
expenses as well as the debt service for its related mortgage note for the first
six months of 1997.  The property is in need of major  capital  improvements  in
order to compete in its local market, and the Partnership has begun a program to
complete such capital  improvements  to be funded from  existing cash  reserves.
However,  there can be no  assurances  that such  reserves will be sufficient to
complete all needed improvements.

Harbour  Club  III  is  part  of  a  four-phase  apartment  complex  located  in
Belleville,  Michigan.  Phases I and II of the complex are owned by partnerships
in which McNeil Partners,  L.P. is the general partner;  while Phase IV is owned
by an unaffiliated Partnership.  McREMI had been managing all four phases of the
complex until  December 1992,  when the property  management  agreement  between
McREMI and the unaffiliated Partnership was canceled.  Additionally,  in January
1993, Phase I defaulted on the mortgage loan to HUD, the former mortgage holder.
In the beginning of July 1997,  the mortgage note was  reinstated  after Phase I
has made all the delinquent payments and late charges.  Regular monthly mortgage
payment was resumed in July 1997.




RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

Revenue:

Total  Partnership  revenues  increased by $26,955 and $30,233 for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, as compared to the same periods of
1996.  Rental  revenue was $586,276 and  $1,144,699 for the three and six months
ended June 30,  1997,  respectively,  and  remained  comparable  to $560,146 and
$1,116,301  for the same  periods  in 1996.  Interest  income  for the first six
months of 1997 increased slightly by $1,835 as compared to prior period.

Expenses:

Total expenses decreased by $10,841 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and
increased by $4,692 for the six months  ended June 30, 1997,  as compared to the
same periods in 1996.

Utilities  increased  $4,978 and $10,672 for the three and six months ended June
30, 1997, respectively, as compared to the same periods of 1996 due to increased
electricity usage at Harbour Club III Apartments.

Repairs and  maintenance  expense  increased by $7,343 and $20,056 for the three
and six months  ended  June 30,  1997,  respectively,  as  compared  to the same
periods of last year.  The  increase  can be  attributed  to an  increase in the
replacement   of   appliances,   which  met  the   Partnership's   criteria  for
capitalization of replacements in 1996, but were expensed in 1997.

General and administrative expenses decreased by $8,662 and $2,636 for the three
and six months  ended  June 30,  1997,  respectively,  as  compared  to the same
periods of 1996. The decrease was primarily due to decreased legal fees relating
to the  rescission  of  Partnership  Units in 1996.  The decrease was  partially
offset  by the  costs  incurred  for  investor  services  which  were paid to an
unrelated  third party in 1997.  During the first six months of 1996, such costs
were paid to an  affiliate of the General  Partner and were  included in general
and administrative - affiliates on the Statement of Operations.

General and  administrative  - affiliates  decreased  $4,615 and $13,197 for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively,  as compared to the same
periods of 1996. This was attributable to costs of investor  services  discussed
above.

ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
- -------   -----------------

James F.  Schofield,  Gerald C. Gillett,  Donna S. Gillett,  Jeffrey  Homburger,
Elizabeth Jung,  Robert Lewis, and Warren Heller et al. v. McNeil Partners L.P.,
McNeil Investors,  Inc., McNeil Real Estate Management,  Inc., Robert A. McNeil,

Fund IX,  Ltd.,  McNeil Real  Estate  Fund X, Ltd.,  McNeil Real Estate Fund XI,

McNeil Real Estate Fund XV, Ltd.,  McNeil Real Estate Fund XX, L.P., McNeil Real

Fund XXIV,  L.P.,  McNeil Real Estate  Fund XXV,  L.P.,  McNeil Real Estate Fund
XXVI, L.P., and McNeil Real Estate Fund XXVII,  L.P., et al. - Superior Court of
the State of California for the County of Los Angeles,  Case No. BC133799 (Class
and Derivative Action Complaint).

The action involves  purported  class and derivative  actions brought by limited
partners of each of the fourteen limited partnerships that were named as nominal
defendants as listed above (the  "Partnerships").  Plaintiffs allege that McNeil
Investors, Inc., its affiliate McNeil Real Estate Management,  Inc. and three of
their senior officers and/or directors (collectively, the "Defendants") breached
their  fiduciary  duties and certain  obligations  under the respective  Amended
Partnership  Agreement.  Plaintiffs  allege that  Defendants  have rendered such
Units highly illiquid and  artificially  depressed the prices that are available
for Units on the resale market.  Plaintiffs also allege that Defendants  engaged
in a course of conduct to prevent the  acquisition  of Units by an  affiliate of
Carl  Icahn  by  disseminating  purportedly  false,  misleading  and  inadequate
information.  Plaintiffs  further allege that Defendants  acted to advance their
own personal  interests at the expense of the Partnerships'  public unit holders
by failing to sell Partnership  properties and failing to make  distributions to
unitholders.

On December 16, 1996, the Plaintiffs filed a consolidated and amended complaint.
Plaintiffs  are suing for breach of  fiduciary  duty,  breach of contract and an
accounting,  alleging,  among other things, that the management fees paid to the
McNeil affiliates over the last six years are excessive,  that these fees should
be reduced retroactively and that the respective Amended Partnership  Agreements
governing the Partnerships are invalid.

Defendants  filed a demurrer to the  consolidated  and amended  complaint  and a
motion to strike on February 14, 1997,  seeking to dismiss the  consolidated and
amended complaint in all respects.  A hearing on Defendant's demurrer and motion
to strike  was held on May 5,  1997.  The Court  granted  Defendants'  demurrer,
dismissing the consolidated and amended complaint with leave to amend.
