PART 1.

Item 1.  Business

Organization

WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund, VI, L.P., Series 9 (the  "Partnership")  was formed
under  the  California  Revised  Limited  Partnership  Act on July 17,  2001 and
commenced  operations  on August  3,  2001,  the  effective  date of its  public
offering  pursuant to the Securities and Exchange  Commission's  approval of the
Partnership's  Pre-Effective  Amendment  No. 1 to Form S-11  initially  filed on
August 16, 2001. The Partnership was formed to invest primarily in other limited
partnerships  or  limited  liability   companies  which  will  own  and  operate
multifamily  housing complexes that are eligible for low-income  housing federal
and, in certain  cases,  California  income tax  credits  ("Low  Income  Housing
Credit").

The general partner of the Partnership is WNC & Associates,  Inc.  ("Associates"
or the "General  Partner".) The chairman and president own  substantially all of
the  outstanding  stock  of  Associates.  The  business  of the  Partnership  is
conducted primarily through WNC, as the Partnership has no employees of its own.

Pursuant to a  registration  statement  filed with the  Securities  and Exchange
Commission on August 16, 2001, the  Partnership  commenced a public  offering of
25,000 units of Limited Partnership Interest ("Units"), at a price of $1,000 per
Unit.  Such  offering  is closed.  As of March 31,  2003,  the  Partnership  had
received  and  accepted   subscriptions  for  15,325  Units  in  the  amount  of
$15,316,125,  net of dealer  discounts of $7,350 and volume discounts of $1,525,
of  which  $486,293  was  represented  by  outstanding  promissory  notes of the
subscribers. Holders of Units are referred to herein as "Limited Partners."

Description of Business

The  Partnership's  principal  business  objective  is to  provide  its  Limited
Partners with Low Income Housing Credits.  The Partnership's  principal business
therefore  consists of investing as a limited partner or non-managing  member in
Local  Limited  Partnerships  each of which will own and operate a  multi-family
housing complex (the "Housing  Complexes") which will qualify for the Low Income
Housing Credit.  In general,  under Section 42 of the Internal  Revenue Code, an
owner of low-income housing can receive the Low Income Housing Credit to be used
to reduce  Federal  taxes  otherwise due in each year of a ten-year  period.  In
general,  under Section 17058 of the  California  Revenue and Taxation  Code, an
owner of low-income housing can receive the Low Income Housing Credit to be used
against California taxes otherwise due in each year of a four-year period.  Each
Housing Complex is subject to a fifteen-year  compliance period (the "Compliance
Period"),  and under state law may have to be maintained  as low income  housing
for 30 or more years.

In general,  in order to avoid  recapture  of Low Income  Housing  Credits,  the
Partnership  does not  expect  that it will  dispose of its  interests  in Local
Limited Partnerships ("Local Limited Partnership Interests") or approve the sale
by any Local Limited  Partnership of its Housing Complex prior to the end of the
applicable  Compliance  Period.  Because  of  (i)  the  nature  of  the  Housing
Complexes,  (ii) the  difficulty of predicting  the resale market for low-income
housing  15 or more years in the  future,  and (iii) the  ability of  government
lenders to  disapprove  of transfer,  it is not possible at this time to predict
whether the liquidation of the  Partnership's  assets and the disposition of the
proceeds,  if any, in  accordance  with the  Partnership's  Agreement of Limited
Partnership,  dated July 17, 2001 (the "Partnership Agreement"), will be able to
be accomplished  promptly at the end of the 15-year  period.  If a Local Limited
Partnership is unable to sell its Housing  Complex,  it is anticipated  that the
local general partner ("Local General  Partner") will either continue to operate
such Housing  Complex or take such other  actions as the Local  General  Partner
believes  to  be  in  the  best  interest  of  the  Local  Limited  Partnership.
Notwithstanding the preceding,  circumstances  beyond the control of the General
Partner or the Local General  Partners may occur during the  Compliance  Period,
which would  require the  Partnership  to approve the  disposition  of a Housing
Complex prior to the end thereof,  possibly resulting in recapture of Low Income
Housing Credits.


                                       3
<PAGE>


As of March  31,  2003,  the  Partnership  had  invested  in ten  Local  Limited
Partnerships.  Each of these Local Limited  Partnerships  owns a Housing Complex
that is eligible  for the  federal  Los Income  Housing  Credit.  Certain  Local
Limited Partnerships may also benefit from government programs promoting low- or
moderate-income housing.

Certain Risks and Uncertainties

An investment in the  Partnership  and the  Partnership's  investments  in Local
Limited  Partnerships  and their Housing  Complexes are subject to risks.  These
risks may impact the tax benefits of an investment in the  Partnership,  and the
amount of proceeds  available for distribution to the Limited Partners,  if any,
on liquidation of the Partnership's investments. Some of those risks include the
following:

The Low Income  Housing  Credit rules are extremely  complicated.  Noncompliance
with these rules results in the loss of future Low Income  Housing  Credit s and
the fractional  recapture of Low Income Housing  Credits  already taken. In most
cases the annual amount of Low Income Housing Credits that an individual can use
is limited to the tax  liability  due on the  person's  last  $25,000 of taxable
income.  The  Local  Limited  Partnerships  may be  unable  to sell the  Housing
Complexes at a profit. Accordingly,  the Partnership may be unable to distribute
any cash to its investors.  Low Income  Housing  Credits may be the only benefit
from an investment in the Partnership.

The Partnership has invested in a limited number of Local Limited  Partnerships.
Such  limited  diversity  means that the  results of  operation  of each  single
Housing  Complex  will have a greater  impact on the  Partnership.  With limited
diversity,   poor   performance   of  one  Housing   Complex  could  impair  the
Partnership's ability to satisfy its investment objectives. Each Housing Complex
is subject to mortgage  indebtedness.  If a Local Limited  Partnership failed to
pay its  mortgage,  it  could  lose  its  Housing  Complex  in  foreclosure.  If
foreclosure  were to occur during the first 15 years,  the loss of any remaining
Low Income Housing Credits,  a fractional  recapture of prior Low Income Housing
Credits, and a loss of the Partnership's investment in the Housing Complex would
occur. The Partnership is a limited partner or non-managing member of each Local
Limited Partnership.  Accordingly, the Partnership will have very limited rights
with respect to management of the Local Limited  Partnerships.  The  Partnership
will rely  totally on the Local  General  Partners.  Neither  the  Partnership's
investments in Local Limited  Partnerships,  nor the Local Limited Partnerships'
investments  in Housing  Complexes,  are readily  marketable.  To the extent the
Housing Complexes receive government financing or operating subsidies,  they may
be subject to one or more of the  following  risks:  difficulties  in  obtaining
tenants for the Housing  Complexes;  difficulties  in obtaining rent  increases;
limitations  on cash  distributions;  limitations  on  sales or  refinancing  of
Housing  Complexes;  limitations  on transfers  of  interests  in Local  Limited
Partnerships;  limitations on removal of Local General Partners;  limitations on
subsidy  programs;  and possible  changes in applicable  regulations.  Uninsured
casualties  could result in loss of property and Low Income Housing  Credits and
recapture of Low Income  Housing  Credits  previously  taken.  The value of real
estate is subject  to risks  from  fluctuating  economic  conditions,  including
employment rates, inflation,  tax, environmental,  land use and zoning policies,
supply and demand of similar  properties,  and  neighborhood  conditions,  among
others.

The  ability of Limited  Partners to claim tax losses  from the  Partnership  is
limited.  The IRS may audit the  Partnership or a Local Limited  Partnership and
challenge  the tax  treatment  of tax items.  The  amount of Low Income  Housing
Credits and tax losses  allocable to the  investors  could be reduced if the IRS
were successful in such a challenge.  The  alternative  minimum tax could reduce
tax benefits from an investment  in the  Partnership.  Changes in tax laws could
also impact the tax benefits from an investment  in the  Partnership  and/or the
value of the Housing Complexes.

No trading market for the Units exists or is expected to develop.  Investors may
be unable to sell their Units  except at a discount  and should  consider  their
Units to be a long-term  investment.  Individual investors will have no recourse
if they  disagree  with actions  authorized by a vote of the majority of Limited
Partners.

Exit Strategy

The IRS  compliance  period for  low-income  housing  tax credit  properties  is
generally  15 years from  occupancy  following  construction  or  rehabilitation
completion.  WNC was one of the first in the industry to offer investments using
the tax credit.  Now these very first programs are completing  their  compliance
period.


                                       4
<PAGE>

With that in mind, we are continuing our review of the  Partnership's  holdings,
with  special  emphasis  on the more  mature  properties  such as any that  have
satisfied the IRS compliance requirements. Our review will consider many factors
including  extended  use  requirements  on the  property  (such as those  due to
mortgage  restrictions  or state  compliance  agreements),  the condition of the
property,  and  the tax  consequences  to the  investors  from  the  sale of the
property.

Upon identifying  those  properties with the highest  potential for a successful
sale, refinancing or syndication, we expect to proceed with efforts to liquidate
those  properties.  Our objective is to maximize the investors'  return wherever
possible and,  ultimately,  to wind down those funds that no longer  provide tax
benefits to investors. No properties in the Partnership have been selected.

of Operations

Forward Looking Statements

With  the  exception  of  the  discussion  regarding   historical   information,
"Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of Financial  Condition  and Results of
Operations"  and other  discussions  elsewhere in this Form 10-K contain forward
looking statements. Such statements are based on current expectations subject to
uncertainties  and other  factors which may involve known and unknown risks that
could  cause  actual  results  of  operations  to differ  materially  from those
projected or implied. Further, certain forward-looking statements are based upon
assumptions about future events which may not prove to be accurate.

Risks and uncertainties  inherent in forward looking statements include, but are
not  limited  to,  our  future  cash  flows and  ability  to  obtain  sufficient
financing, level of operating expenses, conditions in the low income housing tax
credit property market and the economy in general, as well as legal proceedings.
Historical  results are not necessarily  indicative of the operating results for
any future period.

Subsequent  written and oral forward  looking  statements  attributable to us or
persons  acting on our behalf  are  expressly  qualified  in their  entirety  by
cautionary  statements  in this Form 10-K and in other reports we filed with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission.  The following discussion should be read in
conjunction  with  the  Financial  Statements  and the  Notes  thereto  included
elsewhere in this filing.

Critical Accounting Policies and Certain Risks and Uncertainties

The  Partnership  believes  that the  following  discussion  addresses  its most
significant  accounting  policies,  which are the most  critical to aid in fully
understanding and evaluating the Partnership's  reported financial results,  and
certain of the Partnership's risks and uncertainties.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally  accepted in the United States of America requires  management to make
estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets and
liabilities  and disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities at the date of
the  financial  statements,  and the  reported  amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting  period.  Actual results could materially differ from those
estimates.

Method of Accounting For Investments in Limited Partnerships

The Partnership  accounts for its investments in limited  partnerships using the
equity method of  accounting,  whereby the  Partnership  adjusts its  investment
balance for its share of the Local Limited  Partnerships'  results of operations
and for  any  contributions  made or  distributions  received.  The  Partnership
reviews the  carrying  amount of an  individual  investment  in a Local  Limited
Partnership for possible  impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying  amount of such  investment  may not be  recoverable.
Recoverability  of such  investment  is measured by a comparison of the carrying
amount to future  undiscounted  net cash flows  expected to be generated.  If an
investment  is  considered  to be impaired,  the  impairment to be recognized is
measured by the amount by which the carrying  amount of the  investment  exceeds
fair value.  The  accounting  policies  of the Local  Limited  Partnerships  are
generally  consistent  with  those of the  Partnership.  Costs  incurred  by the
Partnership  in  acquiring  the  investments  are  capitalized  as  part  of the
investment account and are being amortized over 30 years.

Equity in losses of the Local Limited  Partnerships for each year ended March 31
have been recorded by the Partnership  based on nine months of reported  results
provided by the Local Limited  Partnerships  for each year ended December 31 and
on three months of results  estimated by management of the  Partnership for each
three-month  period ended March 31.  Management's  estimate for the  three-month
period is based on either actual unaudited results reported by the Local Limited
Partnerships  or  historical  trends  in the  operations  of the  Local  Limited
Partnerships.  Equity in losses of the Local Limited Partnerships are recognized
in the financial statements until the related investment account is reduced to a
zero balance.  Losses  incurred after the investment  account is reduced to zero
are not  recognized.  If the Local  Limited  Partnerships  report  net income in
future years,  the Partnership will resume applying the equity method only after
its share of such net  income  equals  the share of net  losses  not  recognized
during the period(s) the equity method was suspended.

Distributions  received from the Local Limited Partnerships are accounted for as
a  reduction  of  the  investment  balance.  Distributions  received  after  the
investment has reached zero are recognized as income.

Income Taxes

No provision for income taxes has been  recorded in the financial  statements as
any  liability  for  income  taxes  is the  obligation  of the  partners  of the
Partnership.

Certain Risks and Uncertainties

An investment in the  Partnership  and the  Partnership's  investments  in Local
Limited  Partnerships  and their Housing  Complexes are subject to risks.  These
risks may impact the tax benefits of an investment in the  Partnership,  and the
amount of proceeds  available for distribution to the Limited Partners,  if any,
on liquidation of the Partnership's investments. Some of those risks include the
following:

The Low Income  Housing  Credit rules are extremely  complicated.  Noncompliance
with these rules results in the loss of future Low Income  Housing  Credit s and
the fractional  recapture of Low Income Housing  Credits  already taken. In most
cases the annual amount of Low Income Housing Credits that an individual can use
is limited to the


                                       11
<PAGE>

tax  liability  due on the person's  last $25,000 of taxable  income.  The Local
Limited  Partnerships  may be unable to sell the Housing  Complexes at a profit.
Accordingly,  the  Partnership  may be  unable  to  distribute  any  cash to its
investors. Low Income Housing Credits may be the only benefit from an investment
in the Partnership.

The Partnership has invested in a limited number of Local Limited  Partnerships.
Such  limited  diversity  means that the  results of  operation  of each  single
Housing  Complex  will have a greater  impact on the  Partnership.  With limited
diversity,   poor   performance   of  one  Housing   Complex  could  impair  the
Partnership's ability to satisfy its investment objectives. Each Housing Complex
is subject to mortgage  indebtedness.  If a Local Limited  Partnership failed to
pay its  mortgage,  it  could  lose  its  Housing  Complex  in  foreclosure.  If
foreclosure  were to occur during the first 15 years,  the loss of any remaining
Low Income Housing Credits,  a fractional  recapture of prior Low Income Housing
Credits, and a loss of the Partnership's investment in the Housing Complex would
occur. The Partnership is a limited partner or non-managing member of each Local
Limited Partnership.  Accordingly, the Partnership will have very limited rights
with respect to management of the Local Limited  Partnerships.  The  Partnership
will rely  totally on the Local  General  Partners.  Neither  the  Partnership's
investments in Local Limited  Partnerships,  nor the Local Limited Partnerships'
investments  in Housing  Complexes,  are readily  marketable.  To the extent the
Housing Complexes receive government financing or operating subsidies,  they may
be subject to one or more of the  following  risks:  difficulties  in  obtaining
tenants for the Housing  Complexes;  difficulties  in obtaining rent  increases;
limitations  on cash  distributions;  limitations  on  sales or  refinancing  of
Housing  Complexes;  limitations  on transfers  of  interests  in Local  Limited
Partnerships;  limitations on removal of Local General Partners;  limitations on
subsidy  programs;  and possible  changes in applicable  regulations.  Uninsured
casualties  could result in loss of property and Low Income Housing  Credits and
recapture of Low Income  Housing  Credits  previously  taken.  The value of real
estate is subject  to risks  from  fluctuating  economic  conditions,  including
employment rates, inflation,  tax, environmental,  land use and zoning policies,
supply and demand of similar  properties,  and  neighborhood  conditions,  among
others.

The  ability of Limited  Partners to claim tax losses  from the  Partnership  is
limited.  The IRS may audit the  Partnership or a Local Limited  Partnership and
challenge  the tax  treatment  of tax items.  The  amount of Low Income  Housing
Credits and tax losses  allocable to the  investors  could be reduced if the IRS
were successful in such a challenge.  The  alternative  minimum tax could reduce
tax benefits from an investment  in the  Partnership.  Changes in tax laws could
also impact the tax benefits from an investment  in the  Partnership  and/or the
value of the Housing Complexes.

No trading market for the Units exists or is expected to develop.  Investors may
be unable to sell their Units  except at a discount  and should  consider  their
Units to be a long-term  investment.  Individual investors will have no recourse
if they  disagree  with actions  authorized by a vote of the majority of Limited
Partners.

To date, certain Local Limited Partnerships have incurred significant operating
losses and have working capital deficiencies. In the event these Local Limited
Partnerships continue to incur significant operating losses, additional capital
contributions by the Partnership and/or the Local General Partner may be
required to sustain the operations of such Local Limited Partnerships. If
additional capital contributions are not made when they are required, the
Partnership's investment in certain of such Local Limited Partnerships could be
impaired, and the loss and recapture of the related tax credits could occur.

Financial Condition

The Partnership's  assets at March 31, 2003 consisted primarily of $4,521,000 in
cash,  $3,000 in interest  receivable,  aggregate  investments  in the ten Local
Limited  Partnerships of $8,871,000.  Liabilities at March 31, 2003 consisted of
$116,000 in advances and other payables due to the General Partner or affiliates
and $849,000 in contributions payable to limited partnerships.

The Partnership offered Units for sale to the public until February 28, 2003, at
which time total limited partner capital of $15,316,125 net of dealer and volume
discounts of $8,875 was raised.

Results of Operations

Year  Ended  March 31,  2003  Compared  to Period  Ended  March  31,  2002.  The
Partnership's  net  loss for the  year  ended  March  31,  2003 was  $(410,000),
reflecting an increase of $(402,000)  from the net loss of $(8,000)  experienced
for the period ended March 31, 2002.  The increase in net loss is primarily  due
to equity in losses from limited  partnerships which increased to $(309,000) for
the year ended  March 31,  2003 from $(0) for the period  ended  March 31,  2002
along with an increase in loss from  operations of $93,000.  Equity in losses of
limited  partnerships  increased  from prior year due to the  investment  in ten
Local Limited  Partnerships which own twelve apartment  complexes,  ten of which
have  completed  construction  and  started  operations.  Loss  from  operations
increased  due  to  increase  of  asset  management  fees  as  the  fund  became
operational.

Period Ended March 31, 2002. The Partnership  commenced  operations on August 3,
2001. As a result,  there are no comparative  results of operations or financial
condition  from prior  periods to report.  Net income for the period ended March
31, 2002 was principally composed of interest income, offset by amortization and
other operating expenses.  Accordingly, there were no Low Income Housing Credits
available for allocation to the partners.

The two periods are not  comparable as minimal  operations  occurred  during the
period ended March 31, 2002.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Year Ended March 31,  2003  Compared to Period  Ended March 31,  2002.  Net cash
provided  during the year ended  March 31, 2003 was  $3,299,000  compared to net
cash provided for the period ended March 31, 2002 of $1,222,000.  The change was
primarily due to a $10,244,000 increase in cash provided by financing activities
net of expenses due to the sale of units,  offset by an increase of $(8,082,000)
of cash used in investing  activities,  for capital  contributions paid to Local
Limited Partnerships and payments for capitalized acquisition costs and fees.

Period Ended March 31, 2002. Cash flows provided by operating activities for the
period ended March 31, 2002 included  interest income from cash investments less
miscellaneous costs of operations.  Cash flows provided by financing  activities
for the period ended March 31, 2002,  primarily  consisted of proceeds  from the
sale of Units of $1,419,000, net of promissory notes of $151,000,  subscriptions
receivable of $364,000, and offering expenses paid of $61,000.

Cash flows used in  investing  activities  for the period  ended  March 31, 2002
consisted of capitalized acquisition fees and costs totaling $137,000.

The Partnership  expects its future cash flows,  together with its net available
assets at March 31, 2003, to be  sufficient  to meet all  currently  foreseeable
future cash  requirements.  This  excludes  amounts  owed to  Associates  by the
Partnership disclosed below.

Exit Strategy

The IRS  compliance  period for  low-income  housing  tax credit  properties  is
generally  15 years from  occupancy  following  construction  or  rehabilitation
completion.  WNC was one of the first in the industry to offer investments using
the tax credit.  Now these very first programs are completing  their  compliance
period.

With that in mind, we are continuing our review of the  Partnership's  holdings,
with special  emphasis on the more mature  properties  including those that have
satisfied the IRS compliance requirements. Our review will consider many factors
including  extended  use  requirements  on the  property  (such as those  due to
mortgage  restrictions  or state  compliance  agreements),  the condition of the
property,  and  the tax  consequences  to the  investors  from  the  sale of the
property.

Upon identifying  those  properties with the highest  potential for a successful
sale, refinancing or syndication, we expect to proceed with efforts to liquidate
those  properties.  Our objective is to maximize the investors'  return wherever
possible and,  ultimately,  to wind down those funds that no longer  provide tax
benefits  to  investors.  To date no  properties  in the  Partnership  have been
selected.

Impact of New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS")  No. 143,  "Accounting  for Asset
Retirement  Obligations",  which requires that the fair value of a liability for
an asset  retirement  obligation  be  recognized  in the  period  in which it is
incurred with the associated asset retirement costs being  capitalized as a part
of the  carrying  amount of the  long-lived  asset.  SFAS No. 143 also  includes
disclosure   requirements   that  provide  a  description  of  asset  retirement
obligations   and   reconciliation   of  changes  in  the  components  of  those
obligations.  The statement is effective for fiscal years  beginning  after June
15,  2002.  The  adoption of SFAS No. 143 did not have a material  impact on the
Partnership's financial position or results of operations.

In August  2001,  the FASB  issued  SFAS No.  144,  "Impairment  or  Disposal of
Long-Lived  Assets," which addresses  accounting and financial reporting for the
impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This standard was effective for the
Partnership's financial statements beginning January 1, 2002. The implementation
of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material  impact on the  Partnership's  financial
position or results of operations.

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145,  "Rescission of FASB Statements No.
4, 44, and 64,  Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical  Corrections."
SFAS No. 145 rescinded three previously  issued  statements and amended SFAS No.
13, "Accounting for Leases." The statement provides reporting standards for debt
extinguishments   and   provides   accounting   standards   for  certain   lease
modifications that have economic effects similar to sale-leaseback transactions.
The statement is effective for certain lease  transactions  occurring  after May
15,  2002 and all other  provisions  of the  statement  shall be  effective  for
financial statements issued on or after May 15, 2002. The implementation of SFAS
No. 145 did not have a material impact on the Partnership's  financial  position
or results of operations.

In June 2002,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 146,  "Accounting  for Costs  Associated
with Exit or  Disposal  Activities,"  which  updates  accounting  and  reporting
standards for personnel and operational restructurings.  The Partnership adopted
SFAS No. 146 for exit,  disposal  or other  restructuring  activities  initiated
after  December 31,  2002.  The adoption of SFAS No. 146 did not have a material
effect on the Partnership's financial position or results of operations.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's
Accounting  and  Disclosure  Requirements  for  Guarantees,  Including  Indirect
Guarantees  of  Indebtedness  of Others."  The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a
material impact on the Partnership's finacial position or results of operations.


                                       14
<PAGE>






In December  2002,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 148,  "Accounting  for  Stock-Based
Compensation  - Transition  and Disclosure - an Amendment to SFAS No. 123." SFAS
No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the
fair value based method on accounting for stock-based employee compensation. The
adoption  of SFAS No.  148 did not have a material  impact on the  Partnership's
financial position or results of operations.

In  January   2003,   the  FASB  issued   Interpretation   No.  46  ("FIN  46"),
"Consolidation  of Variable  Interest  Entities." The adoption of FIN 46 did not
have a material  impact on the  Partnership's  financial  position or results of
operations.

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


To the Partners
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 9


We have audited the  accompanying  balance sheets of WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund
VI, L.P., Series 9 (a California Limited  Partnership) (the "Partnership") as of
March 31, 2003 and 2002,  and the related  statements of  operations,  partners'
equity  (deficit)  and cash flows for the year ended  March 31, 2003 and for the
period August 3, 2001 (date operations  commenced) through March 31, 2002. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits. All of the financial statements of the limited partnerships in which
the  Partnership  is a limited  partner  were  audited by other  auditors  whose
reports  have been  furnished  to us. As  discussed  in Note 2 to the  financial
statements, the Partnership accounts for its investments in limited partnerships
using the equity method. The portion of the Partnership's  investment in limited
partnerships  audited  by other  auditors  represented  50% and 0% of the  total
assets of the Partnership at March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and 100% and
0% of the  Partnership's  equity in losses of limited  partnerships for the year
ended  March  31,  2003 and for the  period  August  3,  2001  (date  operations
commenced)  through  March 31, 2002,  respectively.  Our opinion,  insofar as it
relates to the amounts  included  in the  financial  statements  for the limited
partnerships which were audited by others, is based solely on the reports of the
other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the  United  States of  America.  Those  standards  require  that we plan and
perform the audits to obtain  reasonable  assurance  about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis,  evidence  supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant  estimates  made by  management,  as well as evaluating  the overall
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits and the reports of
the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors,  the
financial  statements referred to above present fairly in all material respects,
the  financial  position of WNC Housing  Tax Credit Fund VI,  L.P.,  Series 9 (a
California  Limited  Partnership) as of March 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results
of its  operations  and its cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2003 and for
the period August 3, 2001 (date operations  commenced) through March 31, 2002 in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                      For The Year Ended March 31, 2003 and
            For The Period August 3, 2001 (Date Operations Commenced)

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
---------------------------------------------------

Organization
------------

WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 9, a California Limited Partnership
(the "Partnership"),  was formed on July 17, 2001 under the laws of the state of
California,  and commenced  operations on August 3, 2001,  the effective date of
its  public  offering  pursuant  to the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission's
approval  of the  Partnership's  Pre-Effective  Amendment  No.  1 to  Form  S-11
initially filed on August 16, 2001. Prior to August 3, 2001, the Partnership was
considered a development-stage  enterprise. The Partnership was formed to invest
primarily in other limited  partnerships  and limited  liability  companies (the
"Local  Limited  Partnerships")  which  own  and  operate  multi-family  housing
complexes  (the "Housing  Complex") that are eligible for low income housing tax
credits. The local general partners (the "Local General Partners") of each Local
Limited  Partnership  retain  responsibility  for  maintaining,   operating  and
managing the Housing Complex.

The general partner is WNC & Associates, Inc. ("WNC") (the "General Partner"), a
California limited partnership. The chairman and president own substantially all
of the  outstanding  stock of WNC. The business of the  Partnership is conducted
primarily through WNC, as the Partnership has no employees of its own.

The Partnership shall continue in full force and effect until December 31, 2062,
unless terminated prior to that date,  pursuant to the partnership  agreement or
law.

The financial  statements  include only activity relating to the business of the
Partnership,  and do not give  effect to any assets that the  partners  may have
outside of their interests in the Partnership, or to any obligations,  including
income taxes, of the partners.

The  Partnership  agreement  authorized the sale of up to 25,000 units at $1,000
per  Unit  ("Units").   As  of  March  31,  2003,  15,325  Units,   representing
subscriptions  in the amount of $15,316,125,  net of dealer  discounts of $7,350
and volume  discounts of $1,525,  had been accepted.  The General  Partner has a
0.1% interest in operating  profits and losses,  taxable  income and losses,  in
cash  available  for  distribution  from the  Partnership  and tax credits.  The
limited partners will be allocated the remaining 99.9% interest in proportion to
their respective investments.

After the limited  partners  have received  proceeds from a sale or  refinancing
equal to their capital  contributions and their return on investment (as defined
in the  Partnership  Agreement)  and the General  Partner has received  proceeds
equal  to its  capital  contribution  and a  subordinated  disposition  fee  (as
described in Note 3) from the  remainder,  any  additional  sale or  refinancing
proceeds will be distributed 90% to the limited partners (in proportion to their
respective investments) and 10% to the General Partner.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
--------------------------------------------------------------

Risks and Uncertainties
-----------------------

An investment in the  Partnership  and the  Partnership's  investments  in Local
Limited  Partnerships  and their Housing  Complexes are subject to risks.  These
risks may impact the tax benefits of an investment in the  Partnership,  and the
amount of proceeds  available for distribution to the Limited Partners,  if any,
on liquidation of the Partnership's investments. Some of those risks include the
following:

The Low Income  Housing  Credit rules are extremely  complicated.  Noncompliance
with these rules results in the loss of future Low Income  Housing  Credit s and
the fractional  recapture of Low Income Housing  Credits  already taken. In most
cases the annual amount of Low Income Housing Credits that an individual can use
is limited to the tax  liability  due on the  person's  last  $25,000 of taxable
income.  The  Local  Limited  Partnerships  may be  unable  to sell the  Housing
Complexes at a profit. Accordingly,  the Partnership may be unable to distribute
any cash to its investors.  Low Income  Housing  Credits may be the only benefit
from an investment in the Partnership.

The Partnership has invested in a limited number of Local Limited  Partnerships.
Such  limited  diversity  means that the  results of  operation  of each  single
Housing  Complex  will have a greater  impact on the  Partnership.  With limited
diversity,   poor   performance   of  one  Housing   Complex  could  impair  the
Partnership's ability to satisfy its investment objectives. Each Housing Complex
is subject to mortgage  indebtedness.  If a Local Limited  Partnership failed to
pay its  mortgage,  it  could  lose  its  Housing  Complex  in  foreclosure.  If
foreclosure  were to occur during the first 15 years,  the loss of any remaining
Low Income Housing Credits,  a fractional  recapture of prior Low Income Housing
Credits, and a loss of the Partnership's investment in the Housing Complex would
occur. The Partnership is a limited partner or non-managing member of each Local
Limited Partnership.  Accordingly, the Partnership will have very limited rights
with respect to management of the Local Limited  Partnerships.  The  Partnership
will rely  totally on the Local  General  Partners.  Neither  the  Partnership's
investments in Local Limited  Partnerships,  nor the Local Limited Partnerships'
investments  in Housing  Complexes,  are readily  marketable.  To the extent the
Housing Complexes receive government financing or operating subsidies,  they may
be subject to one or more of the  following  risks:  difficulties  in  obtaining
tenants for the Housing  Complexes;  difficulties  in obtaining rent  increases;
limitations  on cash  distributions;  limitations  on  sales or  refinancing  of
Housing  Complexes;  limitations  on transfers  of  interests  in Local  Limited
Partnerships;  limitations on removal of Local General Partners;  limitations on
subsidy  programs;  and possible  changes in applicable  regulations.  Uninsured
casualties  could result in loss of property and Low Income Housing  Credits and
recapture of Low Income  Housing  Credits  previously  taken.  The value of real
estate is subject  to risks  from  fluctuating  economic  conditions,  including
employment rates, inflation,  tax, environmental,  land use and zoning policies,
supply and demand of similar  properties,  and  neighborhood  conditions,  among
others.

The  ability of Limited  Partners to claim tax losses  from the  Partnership  is
limited.  The IRS may audit the  Partnership or a Local Limited  Partnership and
challenge  the tax  treatment  of tax items.  The  amount of Low Income  Housing
Credits and tax losses  allocable to the  investors  could be reduced if the IRS
were successful in such a challenge.  The  alternative  minimum tax could reduce
tax benefits from an investment  in the  Partnership.  Changes in tax laws could
also impact the tax benefits from an investment  in the  Partnership  and/or the
value of the Housing Complexes.

No trading market for the Units exists or is expected to develop.  Investors may
be unable to sell their Units  except at a discount  and should  consider  their
Units to be a long-term  investment.  Individual investors will have no recourse
if they  disagree  with actions  authorized by a vote of the majority of Limited
Partners.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                      For The Year Ended March 31, 2003 and
            For The Period August 3, 2001 (Date Operations Commenced)
                             through March 31, 2002

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
--------------------------------------------------------------

Exit Strategy
-------------

The IRS  compliance  period for  low-income  housing  tax credit  properties  is
generally  15 years from  occupancy  following  construction  or  rehabilitation
completion.  WNC was one of the first in the industry to offer investments using
the tax credit.  Now these very first programs are completing  their  compliance
period.

With that in mind,  the  Partnership  is continuing to review the  Partnership's
holdings,  with special emphasis on the more mature  properties  including those
that have satisfied the IRS compliance  requirements.  The Partnership's  review
will consider many factors  including  extended use requirements on the property
(such as those due to mortgage restrictions or state compliance agreements), the
condition of the property,  and the tax  consequences  to the investors from the
sale of the property.

Upon identifying  those  properties with the highest  potential for a successful
sale,  refinancing  or  syndication,  the  Partnership  expects to proceed  with
efforts  to  liquidate  those  properties.  The  Partnership's  objective  is to
maximize the investors' return wherever possible and,  ultimately,  to wind down
those  funds  that no longer  provide  tax  benefits  to  investors.  To date no
properties in the Partnership have been selected.

Method of Accounting for Investments in Limited Partnerships
------------------------------------------------------------

The Partnership  accounts for its investments in limited  partnerships using the
equity method of  accounting,  whereby the  Partnership  adjusts its  investment
balance for its share of the Local Limited  Partnerships'  results of operations
and for any  contributions  made and  distributions  received.  The  Partnership
reviews the  carrying  amount of an  individual  investment  in a Local  Limited
Partnership for possible  impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying  amount of such  investment  may not be  recoverable.
Recoverability  of such  investment  is measured by a comparison of the carrying
amount to future  undiscounted  net cash flows  expected to be generated.  If an
investment  is  considered  to be impaired,  the  impairment to be recognized is
measured by the amount by which the carrying  amount of the  investment  exceeds
fair value.  The  accounting  policies of the Local  Limited  Partnership's  are
generally  consistent  with  those of the  Partnership.  Costs  incurred  by the
Partnership  in  acquiring  the  investments  are  capitalized  as  part  of the
investment account and are being amortized over 30 years (Notes 2 and 3).

Equity in income and equity in losses of limited  partnerships  for the year and
period ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 have been recorded by the Partnership based
on nine months of reported  results  provided by the Local Limited  Partnerships
and on three  months of results  estimated  by  management  of the  Partnership.
Management's  estimate  for the  three-month  period is based on  either  actual
unaudited  results  reported by the Local  Limited  Partnerships  or  historical
trends in the  operations  of the Local Limited  Partnerships.  Equity in losses
from the Local Limited  Partnerships  allocated to the  Partnership  will not be
recognized to the extent that the  investment  balance  would be adjusted  below
zero.  As soon as the  investment  balance  reaches  zero,  amortization  of the
related  costs of acquiring  the  investment  are  accelerated  to the extent of
losses available.

Offering Expenses
-----------------

Offering  expenses consist of underwriting  commissions,  legal fees,  printing,
filing and recordation fees, and other costs incurred in connection with selling
limited  partnership  interests  in the  Partnership.  The  General  Partner  is
obligated to pay all offering and organization costs in excess of 13% (excluding
sales  commissions  and the dealer manager fee) of the total offering  proceeds.
Offering expenses are reflected as a reduction of partners' capital and amounted
to $1,983,375 and $251,290 as of March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

                 WNC HOUSING TAX CREDIT FUND VI, L.P., SERIES 9
                       (A California Limited Partnership)

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                      For The Year Ended March 31, 2003 and
            For The Period August 3, 2001 (Date Operations Commenced)
                             through March 31, 2002

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
--------------------------------------------------------------

Use of Estimates
----------------

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally  accepted in the United States of America requires  management to make
estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets and
liabilities  and disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities at the date of
the  financial  statements,  and the  reported  amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting  period.  Actual results could materially differ from those
estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------

The  Partnership   considers  all  highly  liquid   investments  with  remaining
maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.  As of
March 31, 2003 and 2002, the Partnership had no cash equivalents.

Concentration of Credit Risk
----------------------------

At March 31, 2003, the Partnership maintained cash balances at certain financial
institutions in excess of the federally insured maximum.

Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit
-----------------------------------

Net income per limited  partner  unit is  calculated  pursuant to  Statement  of
Financial  Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Net income per unit
includes no dilution  and is computed by dividing  income  available  to limited
partners by the weighted average number of units outstanding  during the period.
Calculation of diluted net income per unit is not required.

Reporting Comprehensive Income
------------------------------

The  Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS") No. 130,  Reporting
Comprehensive  Income  established  standards  for the  reporting and display of
comprehensive  income (loss) and its components in a full set of general-purpose
financial statements. The Partnership had no items of other comprehensive income
during the year and period ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, as defined by SFAS No.
130.

New Accounting Pronouncements
-----------------------------

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS")  No. 143,  "Accounting  for Asset
Retirement  Obligations",  which requires that the fair value of a liability for
an asset  retirement  obligation  be  recognized  in the  period  in which it is
incurred with the associated asset retirement costs being  capitalized as a part
of the  carrying  amount of the  long-lived  asset.  SFAS No. 143 also  includes
disclosure   requirements   that  provide  a  description  of  asset  retirement
obligations   and   reconciliation   of  changes  in  the  components  of  those
obligations.  The statement is effective for fiscal years  beginning  after June
15,  2002.  The  adoption of SFAS No. 143 did not have a material  impact on the
Partnership's financial position or results of operations.

In August  2001,  the FASB  issued  SFAS No.  144,  "Impairment  or  Disposal of
Long-Lived  Assets," which addresses  accounting and financial reporting for the
impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This standard was effective for the
Partnership's financial statements beginning January 1, 2002. The implementation
of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material  impact on the  Partnership's  financial
position or results of operations.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                      For The Year Ended March 31, 2003 and
            For The Period August 3, 2001 (Date Operations Commenced)
                             through March 31, 2002

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
--------------------------------------------------------------

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145,  "Rescission of FASB Statements No.
4, 44, and 64,  Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical  Corrections."
SFAS No. 145 rescinded three previously  issued  statements and amended SFAS No.
13, "Accounting for Leases." The statement provides reporting standards for debt
extinguishments   and   provides   accounting   standards   for  certain   lease
modifications that have economic effects similar to sale-leaseback transactions.
The statement is effective for certain lease  transactions  occurring  after May
15,  2002 and all other  provisions  of the  statement  shall be  effective  for
financial statements issued on or after May 15, 2002. The implementation of SFAS
No. 145 did not have a material impact on the Partnership's  financial  position
or results of operations.

In June 2002,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 146,  "Accounting  for Costs  Associated
with Exit or  Disposal  Activities,"  which  updates  accounting  and  reporting
standards for personnel and operational restructurings.  The Partnership adopted
SFAS No. 146 for exit,  disposal  or other  restructuring  activities  initiated
after  December 31,  2002.  The adoption of SFAS No. 146 did not have a material
effect on the Partnership's financial position or results of operations.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's
Accounting  and  Disclosure  Requirements  for  Guarantees,  Including  Indirect
Guarantees  of  Indebtedness  of Others."  The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a
material impact on the Partnership's finacial position or results of operations.

In December  2002,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 148,  "Accounting  for  Stock-Based
Compensation  - Transition  and Disclosure - an Amendment to SFAS No. 123." SFAS
No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the
fair value based method on accounting for stock-based employee compensation. The
adoption  of SFAS No.  148 did not have a material  impact on the  Partnership's
financial position or results of operations.

In  January   2003,   the  FASB  issued   Interpretation   No.  46  ("FIN  46"),
"Consolidation  of Variable  Interest  Entities." The adoption of FIN 46 did not
have a material  impact on the  Partnership's  financial  position or results of
operations.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
--------------------------------------------

As of the periods  presented,  the Partnership has acquired limited  partnership
interests  in ten Local  Limited  Partnerships,  each of which owns one  Housing
Complex  except  for one that owns  three  Housing  Complexes  consisting  of an
aggregate of 394  apartment  units.  As of March 31,  2003,  four of the Housing
Complexes  were under  construction  or  rehabilitation.  The  respective  Local
General  Partners  of the  Local  Limited  Partnerships  manage  the  day-to-day
operations  of the entities.  Significant  Local  Limited  Partnership  business
decisions require approval from the Partnership.  The Partnership,  as a limited
partner,  is generally  entitled to approximately 99%, as specified in the Local
Limited  Partnership  agreements,  of the operating profits and losses,  taxable
income and losses and tax credits of the Local Limited Partnerships.

The  Partnership's  investments  in limited  partnerships  as  reflected  in the
balance  sheets  at March 31,  2003 and 2002 are  approximately  $2,398,000  and
$174,000,  respectively,  greater than the Partnership's equity at the preceding
December  31 as shown in the  Local  Limited  Partnerships'  combined  financial
statements  presented  below.  This  difference is primarily due to acquisition,
selection,  and other costs related to the acquisition of the investments  which
have been  capitalized in the  Partnership's  investment  account and to capital
contributions  payable to the limited  partnerships  which were  netted  against
partner  capital in the Local Limited  Partnerships'  financial  statements (see
Note 6). The  Partnership's  investment  is also  lower  than the  Partnership's
equity as shown in the Local Limited Partnership's combined financial statements
due to the  estimated  losses  recorded by the  Partnership  for the three month
period ended March 31.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS, continued
-------------------------------------------------------

Equity  in  losses  of the  Local  Limited  Partnerships  is  recognized  in the
financial  statements until the related  investment account is reduced to a zero
balance. Losses incurred after the investment account is reduced to zero are not
recognized. If the Local Limited Partnerships report net income in future years,
the  Partnership  will resume applying the equity method only after its share of
such net  income  equals  the share of net  losses  not  recognized  during  the
period(s) the equity method was suspended.

Distributions  received from Local Limited  Partnerships  are accounted for as a
reduction of the investment balance. Distributions received after the investment
has reached zero are  recognized as income.  As of March 31, 2003, no investment
accounts in Local Limited Partnerships had reached a zero balance.

The following is a summary of the equity method  activity of the  investments in
limited partnerships for the periods presented:

Certain Local Limited  Partnerships have incurred  significant  operating losses
and/or have  working  capital  deficiencies.  In the event  these Local  Limited
Partnerships continue to incur significant operating losses,  additional capital
contributions  by the  Partnership  and/or  the  Local  General  Partner  may be
required  to sustain  the  operations  of such Local  Limited  Partnerships.  If
additional  capital  contributions  are not made  when  they are  required,  the
Partnership's  investment in certain of such Local Limited Partnerships could be
impaired, and the loss and recapture of the related tax credits could occur.

(d)  Changes in Control

     The management and control of the General  Partner and of Associates may be

     without the consent or approval of the Limited Partners.  In addition,  the
     Partnership  Agreement provides for the admission of one or more additional
     and successor General Partners in certain circumstances.

     First,   with  the   consent   of  any  other   General   Partners   and  a
     majority-in-interest  of the  Limited  Partners,  any  General  Partner may
     designate  one or  more  persons  to be  successor  or  additional  General
     Partners. In addition,  any General Partner may, without the consent of any
     other General Partner or the Limited Partners,  (i) substitute in its stead
     as General  Partner  any  entity  which has,  by merger,  consolidation  or
     otherwise,  acquired  substantially  all  of its  assets,  stock  or  other
     evidence of equity interest and continued its business, or (ii) cause to be
     admitted to the Partnership an additional General Partner or Partners if it
     deems such  admission to be necessary or desirable so that the  Partnership
     will be classified a partnership for Federal income tax purposes.  Finally,
     a  majority-in-interest  of the Limited Partners may at any time remove the
     General Partner of the Partnership and elect a successor General Partner.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

The General Partner manages all of the Partnership's  affairs.  The transactions
with  the  General  Partner  are  primarily  in the  form  of  fees  paid by the
Partnership for services rendered to the Partnership, reimbursement of expenses,
and the General Partner's  interest in the Partnership,  as discussed in Item 11
and in the notes to the Partnership's financial statements.

Item 14. Controls and Procedures

Associates,  on behalf of the  Partnership,  maintains  disclosure  controls and
procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed
in our  periodic  reports  filed with the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission
("SEC") is recorded, processed,  summarized and reported within the time periods
specified  in the  rules  and  forms of the SEC and  that  such  information  is
accumulated  and  communicated  to our management as appropriate to allow timely
decisions  regarding  required  disclosure.  In  designing  and  evaluating  the
disclosure controls and procedures,  our management recognized that any controls
and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can


                                       34
<PAGE>

provide only reasonable  assurance of achieving the desired  control  objectives
and management  necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the
cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Based on their most recent evaluation, which was completed within 90 days of the
filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Principal  Executive  Officer and
Principal  Financial Officer believe that our disclosure controls and procedures
(as defined in Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14 of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,
as  amended)  are  effective.  There were no  significant  changes  in  internal
controls or in other  factors that could  significantly  affect  these  internal
controls subsequent to the date of their most recent evaluation.

               untrue  statement of a material  fact or omit to state a material
               fact  necessary  to make  the  statements  made,  in light of the
               circumstances   under  which  such   statements  were  made,  not
               misleading  with  respect to the  periods  covered by this annual
               report;

          3.   Based  on my  knowledge,  the  financial  statements,  and  other
               financial  information  included  in this annual  report,  fairly
               present in all material respects the financial condition, results
               of  operations  and cash flows of the  registrant as of, and for,
               the periods presented in this annual report;

          4.   The registrant's  other certifying  officer and I are responsible
               for   establishing  and  maintaining   disclosure   controls  and
               procedures  (as defined in Exchange  Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14)
               for the registrant and we have:

               (a)  designed such  disclosure  controls and procedures to ensure
                    that  material   information  relating  to  the  registrant,
                    including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us
                    by others  within those  entities,  particularly  during the
                    period in which this annual report is being prepared;

               (b)  evaluated the  effectiveness of the registrant's  disclosure
                    controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to
                    the  filing  date of this  annual  report  (the  "Evaluation
                    Date"); and

               (c)  presented in this annual  report our  conclusions  about the
                    effectiveness  of the  disclosure  controls  and  procedures
                    based on our evaluation as of the Evaluation Date;

          5.   The registrant's  other certifying  officer and I have disclosed,
               based on our most recent evaluation, to the registrant's auditors
               and the audit  committee of  registrant's  board of directors (or
               persons performing the equivalent function):

               (a)  all  significant  deficiencies in the design or operation of
                    internal   controls   which  could   adversely   affect  the
                    registrant's  ability  to  record,  process,  summarize  and
                    report   financial   data  and  have   identified   for  the
                    registrant's  auditors any material  weaknesses  in internal
                    controls; and

               (b)  any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management
                    or  other  employees  who  have a  significant  role  in the
                    registrant's internal controls; and

          6.   The registrant's other certifying officer and I have indicated in
               this annual report whether or not there were significant  changes
               in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly
               affect  internal  controls  subsequent  to the  date of our  most
               recent  evaluation,  including any corrective actions with regard
               to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
