                                     PART I

Item 1.   Business

a.   General Development of Business
     -------------------------------
Equipment Asset Recovery Fund, L.P. (the "Partnership") (formerly Hutton
Asset Recovery Fund), a Texas limited partnership, was formed to engage in
the business of acquiring various types of distressed assets in the energy
and construction industries, either directly or through partnerships, joint
ventures or other forms of indirect ownership, operating such assets under
management agreements with experienced operators (who may be affiliated with
the General Partners) or leasing such assets to users, and ultimately selling
such assets.  The general partners of the Partnership are Equipment
Management, Inc. ("EMI") (formerly Hutton Equipment Management, Inc.), a
Delaware corporation and an affiliate of Lehman Brothers Inc. ("Lehman")
(formerly Shearson Lehman Brothers Inc.) and Mr. Steven A. Webster (together,
the "General Partners") (see Item 10).

On February 2, 1984, the Partnership began the offering of limited partnership
interests in the Partnership (the "Units"). As of July 31, 1984, the termination
date of the offering, the Partnership had accepted subscriptions for 32,722
Units for an aggregate of $16,361,000 (the holders of such Units are referred to
herein as "Limited Partners"). The net proceeds of the offering after payment of
organizational and offering costs aggregated $14,114,418. The General Partners
made an aggregate cash contribution of $1,000. San Felipe Investors, a Texas
general partnership, (the "Special Limited Partner") made a cash contribution to
the Partnership of $1,000.

b.   Financial Information About Industry Segments
     ---------------------------------------------
The Partnership's sole business was the acquisition, ownership and operation of
such assets described above. All of the Partnership's revenues, operating profit
or loss related solely to such industry segment.

c.   Narrative Description of Business
     ---------------------------------
The business of the Partnership was the acquisition of distressed assets,
directly or indirectly, for the purpose of operating them, either directly or
through partnerships or joint ventures in which the Partnership participated,
under management agreements with experienced operators and ultimately selling
such assets. Reference is made to the section captioned "Investment and
Operating Objectives and Policies" contained on pages 18 through 24 of the
Prospectus for a description of the Partnership's objectives and policies
regarding the selection, operation, liquidation and financing of such assets,
which pages are incorporated herein by reference thereto.

Investments
-----------
The Partnership used the net proceeds of the public offering to acquire three
types of assets. The Partnership purchased (i) four land drilling rigs, (ii) an
interest in a Texas partnership, GCH Venture ("GCH"), that purchased five barge
drilling rigs, nine crew boats and related property, and (iii) ten construction
cranes and an interest in a joint venture, DSC Venture ("DSC"), which owned 49
cranes and related equipment and rented those cranes, the cranes owned by the
Partnership, and cranes owned by third parties. Due primarily to the severe
decline in the oil and gas drilling industry that occurred in 1986, after the
purchase of assets in that industry, all of the Partnership's assets in the oil
and gas industry were either foreclosed on or sold at a loss. During 1991, the
Partnership received the final payments it was owed by Falcon Drilling Inc.
("Falcon") from the disposition of its interest in GCH.

Investment in Construction Cranes
---------------------------------
As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership owned nine cranes outright, a
ninety-nine percent interest in DSC, which owned forty-four cranes and related
equipment, and a controlling interest in SFN Corporation ("SFN"), which owned
four cranes and two pieces of related equipment. During the first nine months of
1996, DSC and SFN sold a total of 12 cranes and two pieces of related equipment
for a total consideration of approximately $6,650,000.

                                                                              2
<PAGE>


Liquidating Sale
----------------
On November 27, 1996, the Partnership, DSC and SFN executed a sale (the
"Liquidating Sale") of their crane fleets, related equipment and existing
customer crane rental agreements to Western Crane Supply, Inc. ("Western"), a
Kennewick, Washington-based operator of construction cranes and an affiliate of
Neil F. Lampson, Inc., for a total consideration of $15.9 million cash. A
detailed discussion of the Liquidating Sale is contained in Item 2,
"Properties," and Note 1 and Note 6 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements contained in the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the
year ended December 31, 1999, filed as an exhibit under Item 14. As a result of
the Liquidating Sale, the General Partners are in the process of terminating the
Partnership. However, the Partnership will not be terminated prior to the
resolution of the pending purported class action suit. A detailed discussion of
this litigation is provided in Note 8 "Litigation" of the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Partnership's Annual Report
to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1999, filed as an exhibit under
Item 14. herein. SFN was liquidated in January 1997.

Employees
---------
The Partnership has no employees. Certain administrative and managerial services
are provided by the General Partners and certain affiliates.


Item 2.   Properties

On November 27, 1996, the Partnership, DSC and SFN executed the Liquidating Sale
(see Item 1). The purchase price was determined by arms-length negotiations.
There is no material relationship between Western and the Partnership or any of
its affiliates, any director or officer of the Partnership, or any associate of
any such director or officer. The Partnership received net proceeds of
$2,772,051 for its crane fleet and received $7,366,940 in distributions from DSC
attributable to its interest in the proceeds from the sale of the DSC crane
fleet.

As a result of the Liquidating Sale, as of December 31, 1999, the Partnership,
DSC and SFN owned no assets other than cash and the General Partners are in the
process of terminating the Partnership. However, the Partnership will not be
terminated prior to the resolution of the pending purported class action suit. A
detailed discussion of this litigation is provided in Note 8 "Litigation" of the
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Partnership's
Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1999, filed as an
exhibit under Item 14. herein.


Item 3.   Legal Proceedings

Incorporated by reference to Note 8 "Litigation" of the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Partnership's Annual Report
to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1999, filed as an exhibit under
Item 14.


Item 4.   Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders of the Partnership during
the quarter ended December 31, 1999, through the solicitation of proxies or
otherwise.


                                     PART II

Item 5.   Market for the Partnership's Limited Partnership
          Interests and Related Security Holder Matters.

The Units are not traded on any exchange, and it is not contemplated that any
public trading for the Units will develop. As of December 31, 1999, the number
of Limited Partners was 1,843.

                                                                              3
<PAGE>


On March 6, 1997, the Partnership paid a special cash distribution, in the
amount of $300 per Unit, to Unitholders of record as of November 27, 1996. Such
distribution represented a substantial portion of the net sales proceeds and
distributions from DSC received by the Partnership from the Liquidating Sale.
There were no distributions in 1998 or 1999. The Partnership's remaining cash
reserves will first be used to provide for the Partnership's remaining
liabilities and obligations, including any associated with the litigation,
following which any remaining cash will be distributed to the partners upon
liquidation.


Item 6.   Selected Financial Data.

The information set forth below should be read in conjunction with Item 7.
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" contained herein, and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements contained in the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the

Item 7.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
          Condition and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On November 27, 1996, the Partnership, DSC Venture ("DSC") and SFN Corporation
("SFN") executed a sale (the "Liquidating Sale") of their crane fleets, related
equipment and existing customer crane rental agreements to Western Crane Supply,
Inc. ("Western"), a Kennewick, Washington-based operator of construction cranes
and an affiliate of Neil F. Lampson, Inc., for a total consideration of $15.9
million in cash. Reference is made to the Partnership's 1996 annual report on
Form 10-K for a discussion of the terms and conditions of the Liquidating Sale.
As a result of the Liquidating Sale, the General Partners are in the process of
terminating the Partnership. However, the Partnership will not be terminated
prior to the resolution of the pending class action suit. A detailed discussion
of this litigation is incorporated by reference to Note 8 "Litigation" of the
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Partnership's
Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1999, filed as an
exhibit under Item 14.

At December 31, 1999, the Partnership's cash and cash equivalents balance
totaled $1,453,153 compared to $1,585,699 at December 31, 1998. The decrease
primarily is due to the payment of legal expenses associated with the
Partnership's pending class action suit, continuing general and administrative
expenses for 1999 and the absence of cash flow from operations due to the
Liquidating Sale. The Partnership's remaining cash reserves will first be used
to provide for the Partnership's remaining liabilities and obligations,
including any associated with the litigation, following which any remaining cash
will be distributed to the partners upon liquidation.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased from $1,566,319 at December 31,
1998 to $1,640,467 at December 31, 1999. The change is due to differences in the
timing of payments, primarily for administrative and legal expenses.

                                                                              4

Results of Operations

1999 vs. 1998
-------------

For the year ended December 31, 1999, the Partnership generated net loss of
$206,694, compared to a net loss of $285,273 in fiscal 1998. The decrease in
1999 is primarily due to lower general, selling and administrative expenses.

Interest income for the year ended December 31, 1999 was $74,907, compared to
$149,352 in fiscal 1998. The decrease for the 1999 period is primarily due to
the Partnership maintaining lower cash balances.

General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 1999 were
$281,601, compared to $434,625 in fiscal 1998. The decrease is primarily due to
lower legal expenses, partially offset by liquidating expenses incurred in 1999.

1998 vs. 1997
-------------

For the year ended December 31, 1998, the Partnership generated a net loss of
$285,273, compared to a net loss of $546,682 in fiscal 1997. The lower net loss
in fiscal 1998 is primarily due to the minority interest expense of $492,868 for
the 1997 period. Excluding the benefit for income taxes and minority interest,
the Partnership generated losses from operations of $285,273 for the year ended
December 31, 1998, and $433,295 in fiscal 1997. The decreased loss from
operations in fiscal 1998 is attributable to a decrease in general, selling and
administrative expenses in 1998, as a result of the Liquidating Sale.

Interest income for the year ended December 31, 1998 was $149,352, compared to
$213,557 in fiscal 1997. The decrease is primarily due to the Partnership
maintaining a lower average cash balance in 1998, due to the payment of a
special cash distribution to partners in March 1997 representing the majority of
the proceeds from the Liquidating Sale, and the pending termination of the
Partnership. Other income was $-0- for the year ended December 31, 1998 compared
to $5,662 in fiscal 1997, down due to management fees no longer being earned
during 1998.

General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 1998 totaled
$434,625, compared to $652,514 in fiscal 1997. The decrease is primarily due to
the absence of operating expenses during 1998 as a result of the Liquidating
Sale, partially offset by an increase in legal expenses relating to the
litigation, and other professional fees.

Item 13.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

The General Partners and their affiliates are entitled to receive annual
Management Fees equal to the greater of $120,000 or 5% of the gross revenues
from the operation of the assets owned directly or indirectly by the
Partnership. The General Partners are also entitled to a disposition fee equal
to 2% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Partnership's assets. During
1999 and 1998, the General Partners earned no Management Fees or disposition
fees. During the second quarter of 1985, the General Partners elected to defer
the payment of all Management Fees, other than the $10,000 per month payable to
San Felipe Resources Company, a partnership owned primarily for the benefit of
Mr. Webster, until the cash flow of the Partnership improved. In June 1986, the
amount of fees paid currently to San Felipe Resources Company was further
reduced to $5,000 per month.

On November 20, 1996, the Partnership paid EMI deferred management fees of
$1,331,742. Subsequent to December 31, 1996, the Partnership paid San Felipe
Resources (for the benefit of Mr. Webster) $948,197 and EMI $275,974 for
deferred management fees and the accrued disposition fee.

The Partnership also received $459,000 in management fees from SFN during 1997.
In addition, the Partnership received liquidating distributions of approximately
$742,138 from SFN in 1997. (See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements
contained herein at Item 14 for additional details.)
