                 WELLESLEY LEASE INCOME LIMITED PARTNERSHIP II-B
                      (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership)

                          Notes to Financial Statements
       For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995
                                   (Unaudited)

(1)   Organization and Partnership Matters

The foregoing financial statements of Wellesley Lease Income Limited Partnership
II-B (the  "Partnership")  have been prepared in  accordance  with the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange  Commission for Form 10-Q and reflect
all  adjustments  which are, in the opinion of management,  necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.  Pursuant to such
rules and  regulations,  certain note  disclosures  which are normally  required
under  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  have  been  omitted.  It  is
recommended  that these  financial  statements be read in  conjunction  with the
Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

(2)   Significant Accounting Policies

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The financial  statements  include allowances for estimated losses on receivable
balances.  The  allowances  for  doubtful  accounts  are based on past write off
experience  and an evaluation  of potential  uncollectible  accounts  within the
current  receivable  balances.  Receivable  balances  which are determined to be
uncollectible  are charged against the allowance and subsequent  recoveries,  if
any, are credited to the allowance. At September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995,
the allowance for doubtful accounts included in rents receivable was $18,117 and
$15,952,  respectively.  The  allowance for doubtful  accounts - affiliates  was
$22,385 and $56,756 at September  30, 1996 and December 31, 1995,  respectively,
both of which pertained to the unsecured pre-petition claim balance.

Marketable Securities

The marketable securities are stated at fair value at the balance sheet date and
consist of common stock in Continental  Information Systems Corporation ("CISC")
received by the  Partnership in the  distributions  made December 27, 1994, July
20, 1995 and October  20, 1995 by the Trustee of the  Liquidating  Estate of CIS
Corporation,  et al ("the Trustee"),  with respect to the outstanding  unsecured
pre-petition  claim. During the second quarter of 1995, the stock began trading,
thereby  providing  an objective  valuation  measure for  establishing  the cost
basis.  Unrealized  gains and losses are recorded  directly in partners'  equity
except those gains and losses that are deemed to be other than temporary,  which
would be reflected in income or loss (see note 5).

(3)   Investment Property

At September 30, 1996,  the  Partnership  owned  computer  equipment with a cost
basis of $251,073, subject to existing leases and equipment with a cost basis of
$566,804 in  inventory,  awaiting  re-lease or sale.  All  purchases of computer
equipment are subject to a 3% acquisition fee paid to the General Partner.

(4)   Related Party Transactions

Fees,  commissions  and other expenses paid or accrued by the Partnership to the
General  Partner or affiliates of the General  Partner for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995 are as follows:



                                                      1996              1995

                                                  ------------       ------------

                                                  ============       ============


Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner is entitled to
an equipment acquisition fee of 3% of the purchase price paid by the Partnership
for the  equipment.  The General  Partner is also  entitled to a management  fee
equal to 7% of the monthly rental billings collected. The Partnership reimburses
the General Partner and its affiliates for certain expenses  incurred by them in
connection with the operation of the Partnership.

(5)   Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity  Securities," which requires  investments
in debt and equity  securities  other than those  accounted for under the equity
method  to be  carried  at fair  value or  amortized  cost  for debt  securities
expected to be held to maturity,  the Partnership has classified its investments
in equity  securities as available  for sale.  Accordingly,  the net  unrealized
gains and losses computed in marking these  securities to market are reported as
a component of partners' equity.

The fair value is based on currently  quoted market  prices.  The cost basis and
estimated fair value of the Partnership's marketable securities at September 30,
1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively, are as follows:



                                                                  September 30, 1996            December 31, 1995

As was discussed in note 2,  Marketable  Securities,  the  Partnership  received
stock in CISC as part of the December  27,  1994,  July 20, 1995 and October 20,
1995 distributions from the Trustee,  with respect to the outstanding  unsecured
pre-petition  claim,  which had been fully  reserved  during prior years;  thus,
during the second  quarter of 1995 when the stock began  actively  trading,  the
carrying  amount  for the stock  was  established  to be $2.50  per share  which
approximated fair value at June 30, 1995.

(6)   Bankruptcy of Continental Information Systems Corporation

On  January  19,  1996,  April 19,  1996 and July 19,  1996,  respectively,  the
Partnership  received the fourth, fifth and sixth distributions from the Trustee
of the Liquidating Estate, et al ("the Trustee"),  with respect to the unsecured
pre-petition claim. The fourth, fifth and sixth distributions  consisted of cash
proceeds of $8,795,  $16,602 and $8,544,  respectively.  The sixth  distribution
also included 172 shares of common stock in CISC.  Following the Trustee's sixth
distribution,  the  Partnership  has a remaining  unsecured  pre-petition  claim
balance of $22,385 as of September 30, 1996 (see note 7).

(7)   Subsequent Events

On October 21, 1996, the Partnership  received the seventh distribution from the
Trustee with  respect to the  unsecured  pre-petition  claim.  The  distribution
consisted  of  cash  proceeds  of  $11,971.   Following  the  Trustee's  seventh
distribution,  the  Partnership  has a remaining  unsecured  pre-petition  claim
balance of $10,414 as of October 21, 1996. The General Partner  anticipates that
the Trustee will make future  distributions on the remaining  outstanding  claim
balance,  although  it is not  possible  at this time to  determine  when  these
distributions will be made.

                      (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership)

                     Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                  Financial Condition and Results of Operations
                                   (Unaudited)

Results of Operations

The following discussion relates to the Partnership's operations for the quarter
and nine month periods ended  September 30, 1996 compared to the same periods in
1995.

The Partnership realized a net loss of $5,942 and net income of $191,522 for the
quarters  ended  September  30,  1996  and  1995,  respectively.  Rental  income
decreased  $75,493  or 84%  primarily  due to lower  rental  rates  obtained  on
equipment lease  extensions and  remarketings  resulting after the initial lease
term  expires  and  due to a  decrease  in the  overall  size  of the  equipment
portfolio.  Interest  income  decreased as a result of lower average  short-term
investment balances held during the current quarter. The increase in net gain on
sale of  equipment  between  1995 and 1996 can be  attributed  to an increase in
equipment sales. The recovery of the unsecured  pre-petition claim of $8,974 for
the  quarter  ended  September  30,  1996 was the  result of the  receipt of the
Trustee's  sixth  distribution  on the  fully  reserved  unsecured  pre-petition
receivable (for further discussion refer to note 6 to the financial statements).

Total costs and expenses  decreased  $18,227 or 33% during the current  quarter.
Depreciation  expense decreased due to a large portion of the equipment becoming
fully  depreciated.  Included in  depreciation  expense  for the  quarter  ended
September  30,  1996 is a reversal of a provision  for  estimated  losses on the
ultimate  disposition  of  equipment.  During  the third  quarter  of 1996,  the
Partnership   recognized  a  provision  for  doubtful  accounts  of  $1,786  for
delinquent  rents  receivable.  Management  fees  decreased  as a result  of the
decline in rental income.  However,  because management fees paid are a function
of rental receipts received,  the large reversal of rental income of $39,975, as
discussed  above,  had  no  impact  on  management  fee  expense.   General  and
administrative  expenses  increased  $7,327  or 46%  due to an  increase  in the
allocable salaries of the partnership  accounting and reporting personnel of the
General Partner during the current  quarter.  The net loss on sale of marketable
securities  reflects the current  quarter  sale of stock that had been  received
from the Trustee.

                      (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership)

                     Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                  Financial Condition and Results of Operations
                                   (Unaudited)

The Partnership realized net income of $117,699 and $464,970 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The Partnership realized rental
income of $113,247 and $286,750 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively.  As discussed above in the quarter analysis, the decrease in
rental  income can be attributed to the re-lease of equipment at lower rates and
the  overall  decrease  in the  equipment  portfolio.  Another  reason  for  the
significant  decrease in rental  income can be  attributed  to  equipment  being
returned to inventory that was previously on lease to Time Warner, Incorporated.
The equipment  was returned to inventory on January 31, 1996,  causing a $39,975
adjustment  to rental  income for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1996.
Interest  income  decreased  between  1995  and 1996  due to the  lower  average
short-term  investment  balances held during the first nine months of 1996.  The
increase  in net  gain  on  sale of  equipment  between  1995  and  1996  can be
attributed to an increase in equipment  sales, as stated above.  The recovery of
the  unsecured  pre-petition  claim of $34,371 and  $249,479 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995,  respectively,  was the result of the receipt
of the Trustee's  distributions  on the fully  reserved  unsecured  pre-petition
receivable (for further discussion refer to note 6 to the financial statements).

Total costs and expenses increased  slightly between the nine month periods.  As
discussed in the quarter analysis above,  depreciation expense decreased $81,541
or 75% between 1996 and 1995 due to a large portion of the  equipment  portfolio
becoming fully depreciated and due to the overall reduction of the Partnership's
equipment portfolio. Another reason for the decrease in depreciation expense can
be  attributed  to the  reversal  of a  provision  for  estimated  losses on the
ultimate disposition of equipment. The provision for doubtful accounts increased
in  the  current  year  due  to an  increase  in  delinquent  rents  receivable.
Management  fees  decreased  due to the  decline in rental  income.  General and
administrative  expenses  increased  $8,015  or 16%  due to an  increase  in the
allocable salaries of the partnership  accounting and reporting personnel of the
General  Partner during the current  period.  The net loss on sale of marketable
securities  reflects  the second and third  quarter  sale of stock that had been
received from the Trustee.

The  Partnership had a net loss and net income per Limited  Partnership  Unit of
$0.50  and  $7.22  for  the  quarters   ended   September  30,  1996  and  1995,
respectively,  and net  income of $3.72 and  $16.04  for the nine  months  ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The  allocation for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 includes a cost recovery  allocation of profit and loss
among the General and Limited  Partners  which  results in an  allocation of net
loss to the Limited  Partners in the first,  second and third  quarters of 1996.
This  cost  recovery   allocation  is  required  to  maintain  capital  accounts
consistent with the  distribution  provisions of the Partnership  Agreement.  In
certain  periods,  the  cost  recovery  of  profit  and loss  may  result  in an
allocation  of  net  loss  to  the  Limited   Partners  in  instances  when  the
Partnership's operations were profitable for the period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the nine months ended  September 30, 1996,  rental  revenue  generated  from
operating  leases and sales proceeds  generated  from  equipment  sales were the
primary sources of funds for the Partnership. As equipment leases terminate, the
General Partner determines if the equipment will be extended to the same lessee,
remarketed to another lessee, or if it is less marketable, sold.  This  decision
is made upon  analyzing which option would  generate the most favorable results.

                                   (Unaudited)

Rental income will continue to decrease due to two factors.  The first factor is
the lower rate obtained due to the  remarketing  of existing  equipment upon the
expiration of the original lease.  Typically the remarketed  rates are lower due
to the decrease in useful life of the equipment.  Second,  the increasing change
of technology in the computer  industry  usually  decreases the demand for older
equipment,  thus  increasing  the  possibility  of  obsolescence.  Both of these
factors together will cause remarketed rates to be lower than original rates and
will cause certain leases to terminate upon  expiration.  Future rental revenues
amount to $18,552 and are to be received during the current year.

During the fourth quarter of 1995, the General Partner  announced its intentions
of winding  down the  operations  of the  Partnership.  It is  anticipated  that
substantially all of the assets will be liquidated and the proceeds will be used
to settle all outstanding liabilities and make a final distribution during early
in 1997. The Partnership will not be terminated until the unsecured pre-petition
claim against CIS Corporation has been settled and any stock received, sold.

The Partnership's  investing  activities for the current nine months resulted in
sales of fully depreciated equipment, generating $112,822 in sales proceeds. The
Partnership  has no  material  capital  expenditure  commitments  and  will  not
purchase  equipment in the future as the  Partnership has reached the end of its
reinvestment  period  and has  announced  its  intentions  of  winding  down the
operations of the  Partnership.  The Partnership also sold 46,185 shares of CISC
stock  having a cost basis of  $115,462,  generating  net sale  proceeds  in the
amount of $80,666.

Cash  distributions  are  currently  at  an  annual  level  of  2%  per  Limited
Partnership  Unit, or $2.50 per Limited  Partnership  Unit on a quarterly basis.
For the quarter  ended  September  30,  1996,  the  Partnership  declared a cash
distribution of $66,745, of which $3,337 is allocated to the General Partner and
$63,408 is allocated to the Limited  Partners.  The distribution will be made on
November 27, 1996. The Partnership expects  distributions to be more volatile as
its  operations  are  winding  down.  The  effects  of  inflation  have not been
significant to the  Partnership and are not expected to have any material impact
in future periods.

On  January 9, 1996,  TLP  Holding  LLC  purchased  all the common  stock of TLP
Leasing  Programs,  Inc.  from CMI Holding Co.  Under the new  ownership,  it is
expected  that TLP Leasing  Programs,  Inc. will continue to operate in the same
manner of business as it has in the past.
