ITEM 4.   CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTS

      The  ILM  II  Lease  Corporation's  (the  "Company")  Board  of  Directors
determined  that Ernst & Young  LLP should not stand for  reappointment  as the
Company's independent auditors, and accordingly, the Company has decided that it
will not renew Ernst & Young's  engagement for the ensuing year. The Company has
engaged  PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's new independent  auditors.

      Ernst & Young's report on the financial  statements of the Company for the
fiscal  years  ended  August 31,  2000 and August  31,  1999 did not  contain an
adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

      During the Company's fiscal years ended August 31, 2000 and August 31,
1999, and the subsequent period preceding June 8, 2001, there were no
"disagreements," as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation
S-K, between the Company and Ernst & Young on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst &
Young, would have caused Ernst & Young to refer to the subject matter of the
disagreement(s) in connection with its report on the Company's financial
statements.

      During each of the Company's fiscal years ended August 31, 2000 and August
31, 1999, and the subsequent period preceding June 8, 2001, there was no
reportable event, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation
S-K, with respect to Ernst & Young.

      Effective June 12, 2001, the Company engaged PricewaterhouseCoopers as its
independent auditors. During the Company's two most recently completed fiscal
years, and through June 12, 2001, the Company has not consulted with
PricewaterhouseCoopers as to any matters.

      The Company has requested a letter from Ernst & Young as to whether Ernst
& Young agrees or disagrees with the above statements. A copy of this letter is
filed as Exhibit 16 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

ITEM 7.   FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS.

     (a)  Not Applicable.

     (b)  Not Applicable.

     (c)  The following Exhibits are filed as part of this Current
          Report on Form 8-K:
