PART I



|Item 1. | BUSINESS
|------- | --------

General Development of Business

ATEL Cash Distribution Fund VI, L.P., (the Partnership) was formed under the laws of the State of California in June 1994. The Partnership was formed for
the purpose of engaging in the sale of limited partnership investment units and acquiring equipment to engage in equipment leasing and sales activities primarily in the United States. The Partnership may continue until December 31, 2015. The
General Partner of the Partnership is ATEL Financial Services, LLC (AFS), a California limited liability company. Prior to converting to a limited liability company structure, the General Partner, AFS was formerly known as ATEL Financial
Corporation.

The Partnership conducted a public offering of 12,500,000 Limited Partnership units (Units), at a price of $10 per Unit. On
January 3, 1995, having received the required minimum capital investment, the Partnership commenced operations in its primary business (acquiring equipment to engage in equipment leasing and sales activities). On November 23, 1996,
subscriptions for 12,500,000, ($125 million) Limited Partnership Units, had been received, in addition to the Initial Limited Partners Units, and the offering terminated. As of December 31, 2007, 12,478,676 Units remained issued and
outstanding.

The Partnerships principal objectives have been to invest in a diversified portfolio of equipment that (i) preserves, protects and
returns the Partnerships invested capital; (ii) generates regular distributions to the partners of cash from operations and cash from sales or refinancing, with any balance remaining after certain minimum distributions to be used to
purchase additional equipment during the reinvestment period (Reinvestment Period) (defined as six full years following the year the offering was terminated), which ended December 31, 2002, and (iii) provides additional
distributions following the Reinvestment Period and until all equipment has been sold. The Partnership is governed by its Limited Partnership Agreement (Partnership Agreement).

The Partnership is now in its liquidation phase and is making distributions on an annual basis.

Narrative Description of Business

The Partnership has acquired various types of equipment, and leased such
equipment pursuant to operating leases and full payout leases, whereby operating leases are defined as being leases in which the minimum lease payments during the initial lease term do not recover the full cost of the equipment and full
payout leases recover such cost. Guidelines provided by the offering indicated that no more than 50% of the aggregate purchase price of equipment would represent equipment leased as operating leases upon final investment of the net proceeds of the
offering and that no more than 20% of the aggregate purchase price of equipment would be invested in equipment acquired from a single manufacturer.

The
Partnership only purchased equipment under pre-existing leases or for which a lease would be concurrently entered into at the time of the purchase. During early 1997, the Partnership completed its initial acquisition stage with the investment of the
net proceeds from the public offering of Units. As noted above, however, it intended to continue to invest any cash flow in excess of certain amounts required to be distributed to the Limited Partners in additional items of leased equipment through
December 31, 2002.

From inception through December 31, 2007, the Partnership had purchased equipment with a total acquisition price of $208.3
million.

The Partnerships objective was to lease a minimum of 75% of the equipment acquired with the net proceeds of the offering to lessees that
(i) had an average credit rating by Moodys Investor Service, Inc. of Baa or better, or the credit equivalent as determined by AFS, with the average rating weighted to account for the original equipment cost for each item leased or
(ii) were established hospitals with histories of profitability or municipalities. The balance of the original equipment portfolio could include equipment leased to lessees which, although deemed creditworthy by AFS, would not satisfy the
general credit rating criteria for the portfolio. In excess of 75% of the equipment acquired with the net proceeds of the offering (based on original purchase cost) was leased to lessees with an average credit rating of Baa or better or to such
hospitals or municipalities as described in (ii) above.

During 2007 and 2006, certain lessees generated significant portions of the Partnerships total lease revenues as
follows (in thousands):



|                             |  |                   |  |      |   |  |      |

|Central States Enterprises   |  | Railcars          |  | 30   | % |  | 19   | %
|Interstate Commodities       |  | Railcars          |  | 19   | % |  | 18   | %
|Transamerica Leasing         |  | Containers        |  | 18   | % |  | 20   | %
|Daimler Chrysler Corporation |  | Material Handling |  | *    |   |  | 11   | %



|* | Lease revenue was less than 10% of the total.
|- | ---------------------------------------------

These percentages are not
expected to be comparable between periods.

The equipment leasing industry is highly competitive. Equipment manufacturers, corporations, partnerships and
others offer users an alternative to the purchase of most types of equipment with payment terms that vary widely depending on the lease term, type of equipment and creditworthiness of the lessee. The ability of the Partnership to keep the equipment
leased and/or operating and the terms of the acquisitions, leases and dispositions of equipment depends on various factors (many of which are not in the control of AFS or the Partnership), such as raw material costs to manufacture equipment as well
as general economic conditions, including the effects of inflation or recession, and fluctuations in supply and demand for various types of equipment resulting from, among other things, technological and economic obsolescence.

AFS sought to limit the amount invested in equipment to any single lessee to not more than 20% of the aggregate purchase price of equipment owned at any time during the
Reinvestment Period. The business of the Partnership is not seasonal.

The Partnership has no full time employees. AFS employees and affiliates
provide the services the Partnership requires to effectively operate. The cost of these services is reimbursed by the Partnership to AFS and affiliates per the Partnership Agreement.

Equipment Leasing Activities

The Partnership has acquired a diversified portfolio of equipment. The equipment
has been leased to lessees in various industries. The following tables set forth the types of equipment acquired by the Partnership through December 31, 2007 and the industries to which the assets have been leased (in thousands).

For further information regarding the Partnerships equipment lease portfolio as of December 31, 2007, see Note 5 to the financial statements, Investments in equipment and leases, net, as set forth in Part
II, Item 7, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

The Partnership adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 131 Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. SFAS No. 131 establishes annual and interim standards for operating segments of a company. It also requires entity-wide disclosures
about the products and services an entity provides, the material countries in which it holds assets and reports revenue, and its major customers. Certain of the Partnerships lessee customers have international operations. In these instances,
the Partnership is aware that certain equipment, primarily rail and transportation, may periodically exit the country. However, these lessee customers are US-based, and it is impractical for the Partnership to track, on an asset-by-asset day-by-day
basis, where these assets are deployed. For further information regarding the Partnership geographic revenues and assets and major customers, see Notes 2 and 3 to the financial statements as set forth in Part II, Item 7, Financial Statements
and Supplementary Data.

PART II



|Item 5. | MARKET FOR REGISTRANTS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNITS AND RELATED MATTERS
|------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Market Information

There are certain material conditions and restrictions on the transfer of Units imposed by the terms of the
Partnership Agreement. Consequently, there is no public market for Units and it is not anticipated that a public market for Units will develop. In the absence of a public market for the Units, there is no currently ascertainable fair market value
for the Units.

Holders

As of December 31,
2007, a total of 6,094 investors were Unitholders of record in the Partnership.

ERISA Valuation

In order to permit ERISA fiduciaries who hold Units to satisfy their annual reporting requirements, AFS estimated the value per Unit of the Partnerships assets as
of December 31, 2007. AFS calculated the estimated liquidation proceeds that would be realized by the Partnership, assuming an orderly disposition of all of the Partnerships assets as of December 31, 2007. The estimates were based on
the amount of remaining lease payments on existing Partnership leases, and the estimated residual values of the equipment held by the Partnership upon the termination of those leases. This valuation was based solely on AFSs perception of
market conditions and the types and amounts of the Partnerships assets. No independent valuation was sought.

After calculating the aggregate
estimated disposition proceeds, AFS then calculated the portion of the aggregate estimated value of the Partnership assets that would be distributed to Unitholders on liquidation of the Partnership, and divided the total so distributable by the
number of outstanding Units. As of December 31, 2007, the value of the Partnerships assets, calculated on this basis, was approximately $1.00 per Unit. The foregoing valuation was performed solely for the ERISA purposes described above.
There is no market for the Units, and, accordingly, this value does not represent an estimate of the amount a Unitholder would receive if he were to seek to sell his Units. Furthermore, there can be no assurance as to the amount the Partnership may
actually receive if and when it seeks to liquidate its assets or the amount of lease payments and equipment disposition proceeds it will actually receive over the remaining term of the Partnership.

Distributions

The Partnership does not make dividend
distributions. However, the Limited Partners of the Partnership are entitled to certain distributions as provided under the Partnership Agreement.

AFS has
sole discretion in determining the amount of distributions; provided, however, that AFS will not reinvest in equipment, but will distribute, subject to payment of any obligations of the Partnership, such available cash from operations and cash from
sales or refinancing as may be necessary to cause total distributions to the Limited Partners for each year during the Reinvestment Period to equal the following amounts per unit: $1.00 in 1997 and 1998; and $1.05 in 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002. The
Reinvestment Period ended December 31, 2002.

A distribution was paid in January 2007 from cash generated from 2006 operations. The rate of the
distribution was $0.13 per Unit. In January 2008, distributions in the amount of $0.15 per Unit were paid from cash generated from 2007 operations.

Distributions were paid in January and July 2006 from cash generated from 2006 and 2005 operations, respectively. The rates were $0.10 per Unit for each of the aforementioned period.

|Item 6. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Statements contained in this Item 6, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, (MD&A) and elsewhere in this Form 10-KSB, which are not
historical facts, may be forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. In particular, economic recession and changes in general economic
conditions, including fluctuations in demand for equipment, lease rates, and interest rates, may result in delays in investment and reinvestment, delays in leasing, re-leasing, and disposition of equipment, and reduced returns on invested capital.
The Partnerships performance is subject to risks relating to lessee defaults and the creditworthiness of its lessees. The Partnerships performance is also subject to risks relating to the value of its equipment at the end of its leases,
which may be affected by the condition of the equipment, technological obsolescence and the markets for new and used equipment at the end of lease terms. Investors are cautioned not to attribute undue certainty to these forward-looking statements,
which speak only as of the date of this Form 10-KSB. We undertake no obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-KSB or to reflect the occurrence
of unanticipated events, other than as required by law.

Overview

ATEL Cash Distribution Fund VI, L.P. (the Partnership) is a California partnership that was formed in June 1994 for the purpose of engaging in the sale of limited liability investment units and acquiring
equipment to generate revenues from equipment leasing and sales activities, primarily in the United States. The General Partner of the Partnership is ATEL Financial Services, LLC (AFS), a California limited liability company.

The Partnership conducted a public offering of 12,500,000 Limited Partnership units (Units), at a price of $10 per Unit. The offering was terminated in
November 1996. During early 1997, the Partnership completed its initial acquisition stage with the investment of the net proceeds from the public offering of Units. Subsequently, throughout the reinvestment period (Reinvestment Period)
(defined as six full years following the year the offering was terminated), the Partnership reinvested cash flow in excess of certain amounts required to be distributed to the Limited Partners and/or utilized its credit facilities to acquire
additional equipment.

Pursuant to the guidelines of the Limited Partnership Agreement, the Partnership began to liquidate its assets and distribute the
proceeds thereof after the end of the Reinvestment Period which ended in December 2002.

As of December 31, 2007, the Partnership remains in its
liquidation phase. Accordingly, assets that mature will be returned to inventory and most likely will be subsequently sold, which will result in decreasing revenue as earning assets decrease. The Partnership continues to make distributions on an
annual basis.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

The liquidity of the Partnership varies, increasing to the extent cash flows from leases and proceeds of asset sales exceed expenses and decreasing as lease assets are acquired, as distributions are made to the limited partners and to the
extent expenses exceed cash flows from leases and proceeds from asset sales.

The primary source of liquidity for the Partnership is its cash flow from a
diversified group of lessees for fixed term leases with fixed rental amounts. As the initial lease terms expire, the Partnership will re-lease or sell the equipment. The future liquidity beyond the contractual minimum rentals will depend on the
Partnerships success in re-leasing or selling the equipment as it comes off lease.

Throughout the reinvestment period which ended December 31,
2002, the Partnership reinvested a portion of lease payments from assets owned in new leasing transactions. Such reinvestment occurred only after the payment of all obligations, including debt service (both principal and interest), the payment of
management and acquisition fees to AFS and providing for cash distributions to the partners.

The Partnership currently has available adequate reserves to
meet its immediate cash requirements and those of the next twelve months, but in the event those reserves were found to be inadequate, the Partnership would likely be in a position to borrow against its current portfolio to meet such requirements.
AFS envisions no such requirements for operating purposes.

---

If inflation in the general economy becomes significant, it may affect the Partnership in as much as the residual
(resale) values and rates on re-leases of the Partnerships leased assets may increase as the costs of similar assets increase. However, the Partnerships revenues from existing leases would not increase as such rates are generally fixed
for the terms of the leases without adjustment for inflation.

If interest rates increase significantly, the lease rates that the Partnership can obtain on
future leases will be expected to increase as the cost of capital is a significant factor in the pricing of lease financing. Leases already in place, for the most part, would not be affected by changes in interest rates.

The Partnerships long-term borrowings are generally non-recourse to the Partnership, that is, the only recourse of the lender is to the equipment or corresponding
lease acquired with the loan proceeds. As of December 31, 2007, the Partnership had repaid all of its outstanding non-recourse debt. The Partnership may borrow up to 50% of aggregate equipment cost. AFS expects that for a liquidation-phase
Partnership, such borrowings will be minimal. In any event, the Partnership Agreement limits such borrowings to 50% of the total cost of equipment, in aggregate. The Partnership may only incur additional debt to the extent that the then outstanding
balance of all such debt, including the additional debt, does not exceed 50% of the original cost of the lease assets then owned by the Partnership, including any such assets purchased with the proceeds of such additional debt.

The Partnership commenced periodic distributions, based on cash flows from operations, beginning with the month of January 1995. See Item 5, Market for
Registrants Limited partnership Units and Related Matters, for additional information regarding the distributions.

At December 31, 2007, the
Partnership had no commitments to purchase leased assets and pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership will no longer purchase any new leased assets.

Cash Flows

2007 versus 2006

Operating Activities

The Partnerships primary source of cash from operations has been rents from operating leases. Additionally, its
cash flows are impacted by changes in certain operating assets and liabilities.

Cash provided by operating activities decreased by $234 thousand, or 13%,
for the year ended December 31, 2007 as compared to 2006. The net decrease in cash flow was primarily attributable to increased payments made against accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and increased levels of accounts receivable offset,
in part, by improved net operating results as well as a decline in prepaid expenses.

The year over year net decline in accounts payable and accrued
liabilities reduced cash flow by $604 thousand and was primarily attributable to 2006 accruals related to maintenance costs and management fees that were paid in early 2007. Similarly, the net increase in accounts receivable reduced cash flow by
$121 thousand and was primarily attributable to a $150 thousand receivable related to a tax refund from the state of Pennsylvania.

The aforementioned
decreases in cash flow was partially offset by increases of $300 thousand resulting from the year over year improvement in net operating results and $167 thousand resulting from a decline in prepaid expenses. Operating results improved as a result
of a 2% growth in revenues, combined with a 3% decline in expense; while the decline in prepaid expenses was attributable to a reduction in prepaid taxes and insurance invoices.

Investing Activities

Cash provided by investing activities decreased by $77 thousand, or 12%, for the year ended
December 31, 2007 as compared to 2006. The net decrease in cash flow was primarily a result of an $83 thousand decrease in proceeds from sales of lease assets. Proceeds from sales of lease assets decreased primarily due to the year over year
decline in lease terminations as more assets under leases scheduled for termination were released rather than sold.



8



---

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities declined by $953 thousand, or 36%, for the year ended December 31, 2007 as compared to 2006. The net decrease in cash used was primarily due to a $938 thousand year over year decline in
distributions paid to Limited Partners. The distributions were based on available cash net of any short-term payables and reserves as determined by the General Partner.

Results of Operations

On January 3, 1995, the Partnership commenced operations in its primary business
(acquiring equipment to engage in equipment leasing and lending activities).

As of December 31, 2007, there were concentrations (defined as greater
than 10%) of equipment leased to lessees in certain industries (as a percentage of total equipment cost) as follows:



|                           |  |    |  
|-------------------------- |  | -- | -
|Transportation, rail       |  | 68 | %
|Transportation, containers |  | 22 | %

Cost reimbursements to the General Partner are based on its costs incurred in performing administrative services
for the Partnership. These costs are allocated to each managed entity based on certain criteria such as total assets, capital contributed or number of investors depending upon the nature of the cost incurred.

2007 versus 2006

The Partnership had net income of $876 thousand and
$715 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, a 23% increase. The results for 2007 reflect an increase in total revenues combined with a decrease in operating expenses when compared to prior year.

Revenues

Total revenues for 2007 increased by $62 thousand, or 2%,
as compared to 2006. The growth in total revenues was primarily due to a $149 thousand increase in operating lease revenue offset, in part, by a $61 thousand decline in gains on sales of assets.

The increase in operating lease revenue was attributable to stronger market demand during 2007, as compared to 2006, which resulted in higher lease rates on renewing
leases; while the decline in gains on sales of assets was mainly due to the year over year decline in the number of assets sold as more assets under leases scheduled for termination were re-leased rather than sold.

Expenses

Total expenses for 2007 decreased by $99 thousand, or 3%,
as compared to 2006. The decrease in expenses was primarily due to declines in cost reimbursements to the General Partner, provision for doubtful accounts and tax expense offset, in part, by increases in depreciation and maintenance expenses.

Costs reimbursed to the General Partner, the provision for doubtful accounts and tax expense decreased by $287 thousand, $87 thousand and $72 thousand,
respectively, during 2007 when compared to 2006. The decrease in costs reimbursed to AFS was primarily a result of reduced administrative expenses associated with the continued decline in assets under management; while the decrease to the provision
for doubtful accounts reflects an adjustment made to reduce the reserve as payments were received on delinquent invoices that had been previously reserved for. The Partnerships tax expense declined primarily due to a reduction in the tax base
as the Partnership ceased operations in certain locations.

The aforementioned decreases in expenses were partially offset by increases in railcar
maintenance and depreciation expenses totaling $230 thousand and $165 thousand, respectively. The increase in railcar maintenance expense was mostly due to the timing of required repairs in 2007 versus 2006, the aging of the Funds lease asset
portfolio, and the impact of inflation on maintenance costs. Depreciation expense was primarily a result of adjustments made to the estimated residual values and depreciable amount of certain railcars under fixed-term lease renewals during the year.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141R, Business Combinations (SFAS 141R). SFAS 141R replaces
SFAS 141 and establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non controlling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill
acquired. SFAS 141R also establishes disclosure requirements which will enable users to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.
The Partnership does not presently anticipate the adoption of SFAS 141R to significantly impact its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilitiesincluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159). This Statement
permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by
measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. This Statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the Boards long-term measurement
objectives for accounting for financial instruments. SFAS 159 is effective for the Partnership as of January 1, 2008. The Partnership does not presently anticipate the adoption of SFAS 159 to significantly impact its financial position, results
of operations or cash flows.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). This
standard clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157 were to be
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. However, in February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. 157-2, which defers the effective date of SFAS No. 157 as it pertains to fair value
measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Partnership will adopt SFAS 157 except as it applies to its investment in equipment and leases, and other
nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities as noted in FSP FAS 157-2. The Fund is in the process of determining the financial impact the partial adoption of SFAS 157 will have on its results of operations and financial position.

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of SFAS 109, Accounting for
Income Taxes (FIN 48), to create a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to
meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on deregulation, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Partnership adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a significant effect on the Partnerships financial position, results of operations or
cash flows.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The policies discussed below are considered by management of the Partnership to be critical to an understanding of the Partnerships financial statements because their application requires significant complex or subjective judgments,
decisions, or assessments, with financial reporting results relying on estimation about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Specific risks for these critical accounting policies are described in the following paragraphs. The
Partnership also states these accounting policies in the notes to the financial statements and in relevant sections in this discussion and analysis. For all of these policies, management cautions that future events may not develop exactly as
forecast, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment.

Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 differ from those estimates. Such
estimates primarily relate to the determination of residual values at the end of the lease term and expected future cash flows used for impairment analysis purposes and determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts.

---

Equipment on operating leases and related revenue recognition:

Equipment subject to operating leases is stated at cost. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line method over the terms of the related leases to the equipments
estimated residual values at the end of the leases. Maintenance costs associated with the Funds portfolio of leased assets are expensed as incurred.

Operating lease revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the underlying leases. The initial lease terms will vary as to the type of equipment subject to the leases, the needs of the lessees and the terms negotiated,
but initial leases are generally from 36 to 120 months. Income from step rent provisions, escalation clauses, capital improvement funding provisions or other lease concessions in lease contracts and lease rates subject to variation based on changes
in market indexes or interest rates are recognized on a straight line basis. The difference between rent received and rental revenue recognized is recorded as unearned operating lease income on the balance sheet.

Direct financing leases and related revenue recognition:

Income from
direct financing lease transactions is reported using the financing method of accounting, in which the Partnerships investment in the leased property is reported as a receivable from the lessee to be recovered through future rentals. The
income portion of each rental payment is calculated so as to generate a constant rate of return on the net receivable outstanding.

Allowances for losses
on direct financing leases are typically established based on historical charge-off and collection experience and the collectability of specifically identified lessees and billed and unbilled receivables. Direct financing leases are written-off as
they are deemed uncollectible.

Direct financing leases are generally placed in a non-accrual status (i.e., no revenue is recognized) when payments are
more than 90 days past due. Additionally, management periodically reviews the credit worthiness of all direct finance lessees with payments outstanding less than 90 days. Based upon managements judgment, direct finance lessees with balances
less than 90 days delinquent may be placed in a non-accrual status. Leases placed on non-accrual status are only returned to an accrual status when the account has been brought current and management believes recovery of the remaining unpaid lease
payments is probable.

Asset valuation:

Recorded
values of the Partnerships asset portfolio are periodically reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. An impairment loss is measured and recognized
only if the estimated undiscounted future cash flows of the asset are less than their net book value. The estimated undiscounted future cash flows are the sum of the estimated residual value of the asset at the end of the assets expected
holding period and estimates of undiscounted future rents. The residual value assumes, among other things, that the asset is utilized normally in an open, unrestricted and stable market. Short-term fluctuations in the market place are disregarded
and it is assumed that there is no necessity either to dispose of a significant number of the assets, if held in quantity, simultaneously or to dispose of the asset quickly. Impairment is measured as the difference between the fair value (as
determined by a valuation method using discounted estimated future cash flows) of the assets and its carrying value on the measurement date.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Partners

ATEL Cash Distribution Fund VI, L.P.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of ATEL Cash Distribution Fund VI, L.P. (Partnership) as of December 31, 2007, and the related statements
of income, changes in partners capital, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2007. 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.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit
of the Partnerships internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnerships internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of ATEL Cash Distribution Fund VI, L.P. as of December 31, 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.

ATEL CASH DISTRIBUTION FUND VI, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization and Limited Partnership matters:

ATEL Cash Distribution Fund VI, L.P. (the Partnership) was formed under the laws of the State of California on June 29, 1994 for the
purpose of engaging in the sale of limited liability investment units and acquiring equipment to engage in equipment leasing and sales activities, primarily in the United States. The Partnership may continue until December 31, 2015.

The Partnership conducted a public offering of 12,500,000 Limited Partnership units, at a price of $10 per Unit. Upon the sale of the minimum amount of Units of
Limited Partnership interest Units of $1.2 million and the receipt of the proceeds thereof on January 3, 1995, the Partnership commenced operations in its primary business (acquiring equipment to engage in equipment leasing and sales
activities). On November 23, 1996, subscriptions for 12,500,000 ($125 million) Limited Partnership Units had been received, in addition to the Initial Limited Partners Units, and the offering terminated. As of December 31, 2007,
12,478,676 Units were issued and outstanding.

The General Partner of the Partnership is ATEL Financial Services, LLC (AFS). Prior to
converting to a limited liability company structure, AFS was formerly known as ATEL Financial Corporation. AFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of ATEL Capital Group.

The Partnerships business consists of leasing various types of equipment. As of December 31, 2007, the original terms of the leases ranged from one to ten years.

Pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement (Partnership Agreement), AFS receives compensation and reimbursements for services rendered on behalf of the Partnership (Note 6). AFS is required to maintain
in the Partnership reasonable cash reserves for working capital, the repurchase of Units and contingencies.

The Partnerships principal objectives
have been to invest in a diversified portfolio of equipment that (i) preserves, protects and returns the Partnerships invested capital; (ii) generates regular distributions to the partners of cash from operations and cash from sales
or refinancing, with any balance remaining after certain minimum distributions to be used to purchase additional equipment during the reinvestment period (Reinvestment Period) (defined as six full years following the year the offering
was terminated), which ended December 31, 2002 and (iii) provides additional distributions following the Reinvestment Period and until all equipment has been sold. The Partnership is governed by its Partnership Agreement.

The Partnership is in the liquidation phase of its life cycle as defined in the Partnership Agreement and is making distributions on an annual basis.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies:

Basis of
presentation:

The accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 2007, and the related statements of income and changes in partners capital
and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2007 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Certain prior year amounts have been
reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on equity or net income.

Footnote and tabular amounts are
presented in thousands, except as to Units and per Unit data.

Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 differ from those estimates. Such
estimates primarily relate to the determination of residual values at the end of the lease term, expected future cash flows used for impairment analysis purposes, and determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued):



Cash and cash equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and cash equivalent investments with original maturities of ninety days or less.

Credit risk:

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Partnership to concentrations of credit risk include cash and cash
equivalents, direct finance lease receivables and accounts receivable. The Partnership places its cash deposits and temporary cash investments with creditworthy, high quality financial institutions and therefore, believes that such a concentration
of these deposits and temporary cash investments is not deemed to create a significant risk to the Partnership. Accounts receivable represent amounts due from lessees in various industries, related to equipment on operating and direct financing
leases. See Note 3 for a description of lessees by industry as of December 31, 2007 and 2006.

Accounts receivable:

Accounts receivable represent the amounts billed under operating and direct finance lease contracts which are currently due to the Partnership. Allowances for doubtful
accounts are typically established based on historical charge-off and collection experience and the collectability of specifically identified lessees and invoiced amounts. Accounts receivable are charged-off on a specific identification basis by
AFS. Amounts recovered that were previously written-off are recorded as other income in the period received.

Direct financing leases and related
revenue recognition:

Income from direct financing lease transactions is reported using the financing method of accounting, in which the
Partnerships investment in the leased property is reported as a receivable from the lessee to be recovered through future rentals. The income portion of each rental payment is calculated so as to generate a constant rate of return on the net
receivable outstanding.

Allowances for losses on direct financing leases are typically established based on historical charge-off and collection
experience and the collectability of specifically identified lessees and billed and unbilled receivables. Direct financing leases are written-off as they are deemed uncollectible.

Direct financing leases are generally placed in a non-accrual status (i.e., no revenue is recognized) when payments are more than 90 days past due. Additionally, management periodically reviews the credit worthiness
of all direct finance lessees with payments outstanding less than 90 days. Based upon managements judgment, direct finance lessees with balances less than 90 days delinquent may be placed in a non-accrual status. Leases placed on non-accrual
status are only returned to an accrual status when the account has been brought current and management believes recovery of the remaining unpaid lease payments is probable.

Equipment on operating leases and related revenue recognition:

Equipment subject to operating leases is stated at
cost. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line method over the terms of the related leases to the equipments estimated residual values at the end of the leases. Maintenance costs associated with the Funds portfolio of leased assets
are expensed as incurred.

Operating lease revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the underlying leases. The initial lease terms
will vary as to the type of equipment subject to the leases, the needs of the lessees, and the terms negotiated, but initial leases are generally from 36 to 120 months. Income from step rent provisions, escalation clauses, capital improvement
funding provisions or other lease concessions in lease contracts, and lease rates subject to variation based on changes in market indexes or interest rates are recognized on a straight-line basis. The difference between rent received and rental
revenue recognized is recorded as unearned operating lease income on the balance sheet.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued):



Asset valuation:

Recorded values of the Partnerships asset portfolio are periodically reviewed for impairment in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. An impairment loss is measured and recognized only if the estimated undiscounted future cash flows of the asset are less than their net book value. The estimated undiscounted future cash flows are the sum of the
estimated residual value of the asset at the end of the assets expected holding period and estimates of undiscounted future rents. The residual value assumes, among other things, that the asset is utilized normally in an open, unrestricted and
stable market. Short-term fluctuations in the market place are disregarded and it is assumed that there is no necessity either to dispose of a significant number of the assets, if held in quantity, simultaneously or to dispose of the asset quickly.
Impairment is measured as the difference between the fair value (as determined by a valuation method using discounted estimated future cash flows) of the assets and its carrying value on the measurement date.

Segment reporting:

The Partnership adopted the provisions of SFAS
No. 131 Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. SFAS No. 131 establishes annual and interim standards for operating segments of a Partnership. It also requires entity-wide disclosures about the
products and services an entity provides, the material countries in which it holds assets and reports revenue, and its major customers. The Partnership is not organized by multiple operating segments for the purpose of making operating decisions or
assessing performance. Accordingly, the Partnership operates in one reportable operating segment in the United States.

The Partnerships chief
operating decision makers are the General Partners Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Operating Officer. The Partnership believes that its equipment leasing business operates as one reportable segment because: a) the Partnership measures
profit and loss at the equipment portfolio level as a whole; b) the chief operating decision makers do not review information based on any operating segment other than the equipment leasing transaction portfolio; c) the Partnership does not maintain
discrete financial information on any specific segment other than its equipment financing operations; d) the Partnership has not chosen to organize its business around different products and services other than equipment lease financing; and e) the
Partnership has not chosen to organize its business around geographic areas.

The primary geographic regions in which the Partnership seeks leasing
opportunities are North America and Europe. Currently, 100% of the Partnerships operating revenues are from customers domiciled in North America.

Unearned operating lease income:

The Partnership records prepayments on operating leases as a liability, unearned operating lease income.
The liability is recorded when the prepayments are received and recognized as operating lease revenue ratably over the period to which the prepayments relate.

Income taxes:

Pursuant to the provisions of Section 701 of the Internal Revenue Code, a partnership is not subject to federal income
taxes. All income and losses of the Partnership are the liability of the individual partners and are allocated to the partners for inclusion in their individual tax returns. Accordingly, the Partnership has provided current income and franchise
taxes for only those states which levy taxes on partnerships. Interest and penalties on such taxes are considered to be insignificant. For the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, income taxes and franchise taxes totaled $36 thousand and $108
thousand, respectively.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued):



The tax bases of the Partnerships net assets and liabilities vary from the amounts presented in these financial
statements as of December 31, 2007 (in thousands):

|                                        |  |      |        |  

The primary differences between the tax basis of net assets and the amounts recorded in the financial statements
are the result of differences in accounting for impairment losses, syndication costs and differences between the depreciation methods used in the financial statements and the Partnerships tax returns.

The following reconciles the net income reported in these financial statements to the income reported on the Partnerships federal tax return (unaudited) for each
of the years ended December 31 (in thousands):

Per unit data:

Net income and distributions per unit are based upon the weighted average number of units outstanding during the year.

Recent accounting
pronouncements:

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 141R, Business Combinations (SFAS 141R). SFAS 141R replaces SFAS 141 and establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets
acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non controlling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill acquired. SFAS 141R also establishes disclosure requirements which will enable users to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business
combination. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Partnership does not presently anticipate the adoption of SFAS 141R to significantly impact its financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilitiesincluding
an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159). This Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by
providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. This Statement is expected to expand the
use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the Boards long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. SFAS 159 is effective for the Partnership as of January 1, 2008. The Partnership does not
presently anticipate the adoption of SFAS 159 to significantly impact its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued):



In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS
157). This standard clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157
were to be effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. However, in February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. 157-2, which defers the effective date of SFAS No. 157 as it pertains to
fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Partnership will adopt SFAS 157 except as it applies to its investment in equipment and leases, and other
nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities as noted in FSP FAS 157-2. The Fund is in the process of determining the financial impact the partial adoption of SFAS 157 will have on its results of operations and financial position.

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of SFAS 109, Accounting for
Income Taxes (FIN 48), to create a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to
meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on deregulation, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Partnership adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a significant effect on the Partnerships financial position, results of operations or
cash flows.

3. Concentration of credit risk and major customers:

The Partnership leases equipment to lessees in diversified industries. Leases are subject to AFSs credit committee review. The leases provide for the return of the equipment upon default.

The Partnership is no longer acquiring equipment. As assets have been sold upon maturity of the related leases, concentrations have arisen in certain industries due to
the decreasing number of remaining leases and assets.

As of December 31, 2007, there were concentrations (defined as greater than 10%) of equipment
leased to lessees in certain industries (as a percentage of total equipment cost) as follows:



|                           |  |    |  
|-------------------------- |  | -- | -
|Transportation, rail       |  | 68 | %
|Transportation, containers |  | 22 | %

During 2007, three customers comprised 67% of the Partnerships revenues from leases. During 2006, four
customers comprised 68% of the Partnerships revenues from leases.

Management periodically reviews the carrying values of its assets on leases and assets held for lease or sale. As
a result of these reviews, management determined that no impairment losses existed in either 2007 or 2006. Depreciation expense on property subject to operating leases and property held for lease or sale was $1.3 million and $1.1 million for 2007
and 2006, respectively.

All of the property on leases was acquired from 1995 through 1997.

6. Related party transactions:

The terms of the Partnership Agreement provide that AFS and/or affiliates are entitled to receive certain fees for equipment acquisition, management and resale and for management of the Partnership.

The Partnership Agreement allows for the reimbursement of costs incurred by AFS in providing administrative services to the Partnership. Administrative services provided
include Partnership accounting, investor relations, legal counsel and lease and equipment documentation. AFS is not reimbursed for services whereby it is entitled to receive a separate fee as compensation for such services, such as acquisition and
disposition of equipment. Reimbursable costs incurred by AFS are allocated to the Partnership based upon actual time incurred by employees working on Partnership business and an allocation of rent and other costs based on utilization studies.

6. Related party transactions (continued):



Each of ATEL Leasing Corporation (ALC); ATEL Equipment Corporation (AEC); ATEL Investor
Services (AIS); and ATEL Financial Services, LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ATEL Capital Group and performs services for the Partnership. Acquisition services are performed for the Partnership by ALC; equipment management, lease
administration and asset disposition services are performed by AEC; investor relations and communications services are performed by AIS; and general administrative services for the Partnership are performed by AFS.

Cost reimbursements to the General Partner are based on its costs incurred in performing administrative services for the Partnership. These costs are allocated to each
managed entity based on certain criteria such as total assets, number of investors or contributed capital based upon the type of cost incurred.

Incentive
management fees are computed as 3.25% of distributions of cash from operations, as defined in the Partnership Agreement. Equipment management fees are computed as 5% of gross revenues from operating leases, as defined in the Partnership Agreement
plus 2% of gross revenues from full payout leases, as defined in the Partnership Agreement.

AFS and/or affiliates earned fees, commissions and

7. Commitments:

At December 31, 2007, the Partnership had no commitments to purchase lease assets.

8. Guarantees:

The Partnership enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Partnerships maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However,
the Partnership has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

In the normal course of
business, the Partnership enters into contracts of various types, including lease contracts, contracts for the sale or purchase of lease assets, management contracts, loan agreements, credit lines and other debt facilities. It is prevalent industry
practice for most contracts of any significant value to include provisions that each of the contracting parties - in addition to assuming liability for breaches of the representations, warranties, and covenants that are part of the underlying
contractual obligations - also assume an obligation to indemnify and hold the other contracting party harmless for such breaches, for harm caused by such partys gross negligence and willful misconduct, including, in certain instances, certain
costs and expenses arising from the contract. The General Partner has substantial experience in managing similar leasing programs subject to similar contractual commitments in similar transactions, and the losses and claims arising from these
commitments have been insignificant, if any. Generally, to the extent these contracts are performed in the ordinary course of business under the reasonable business judgment of the General Partner, no liability will arise as a result of these
provisions. The General Partner has no reason to believe that the facts and circumstances relating to the Partnerships contractual commitments differ from those it has entered into on behalf of the prior programs it has managed. The General
Partner knows of no facts or circumstances that would make the Partnerships contractual commitments outside standard mutual covenants applicable to commercial transactions between businesses. Accordingly, the Partnership believes that these
indemnification obligations are made in the ordinary course of business as part of standard commercial and industry practice, and that any potential liability under the Partnerships similar commitments is remote. Should any such
indemnification obligation become payable, the Partnership would separately record and/or disclose such liability in accordance with GAAP.

9. Partners capital:

As of December 31, 2007, 12,478,676 Units were issued and outstanding, including the 50 Units issued to the Initial Limited Partners. The Partnerships registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission became effective November 23, 1994. The Partnership was authorized to issue up to 12,500,000 Units, in addition to the 50 Units issued to the Initial Limited Partners.

As defined in the Partnership Agreement, the Partnerships Net Profits, Net Losses, and Tax Credits are to be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to AFS. The Partnership Agreement allows the Partnership
to make an allocation of income to AFS in order to maintain the capital account of AFS at zero. In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, additional allocations of income were made to AFS in 2007 and 2006. The amounts allocated were
determined so as to bring AFSs ending capital account balance to zero at the end of each year.

As defined in the Partnership Agreement, available
Cash from Operations and Cash from Sales and Refinancing are to be distributed as follows:

Cash from Operations

Cash from Operations is distributed 95.75% to the Limited Partners, 1% to AFS and 3.25% to an affiliate of AFS as an Incentive Management Fee.

Cash from Sales and Refinancing

First, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to AFS until each Limited Partner has received Aggregate Distributions in an amount equal to their Original Invested Capital, as defined, plus a 10% per annum cumulative
(compounded daily) return on their Adjusted Invested Capital; and

10. Fair value of financial instruments:

The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments is made in accordance with the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Fair value estimates, methods and assumptions, set forth below for the Partnerships financial instruments, are made solely to comply with the requirements of Statement
No. 107 and should be read in conjunction with the Partnerships financial statements and related notes.

The Partnership has determined the estimated
fair value amounts by using market information and valuation methodologies that it considers appropriate. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates
presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Partnership could realize or has realized in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the
estimated fair value amounts. For all of these reasons, the aggregation of the fair values presented herein does not represent, and should not be construed to represent, their underlying value.

The recorded amounts of the Partnerships cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accruals at December 31, 2007 approximate fair value
because of the liquidity and short-term maturity of these instruments.

|Item 8A. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|-------- | -----------------------

Evaluation of disclosure controls
and procedures

The Partnerships General Partners Chief Executive Officer, and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and
Chief Operating Officer (Management), evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnerships disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the
evaluation of the Partnerships disclosure controls and procedures, the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this
report, the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

The Partnership does not control the financial reporting
process, and is solely dependent on the Management of the General Partner, who is responsible for providing the Partnership with financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The General
Partners disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States.

Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Management of the General Partner is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as that term is defined in
Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) for the Partnership, and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. The internal control process of the General Partner, as is applicable
to the Partnership, was designed to provide reasonable assurance to Management regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements, and includes those policies and procedures that:



| | (1) | Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in
the United States, and that the Partnerships receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of the Management of the General Partner; and
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (2) | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Partnerships assets that could have a material
effect on the financial statements.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All internal control processes, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even
those processes determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the reliability of financial statement preparation and presentation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control
may vary over time.

Management of the General Partner assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting, as is applicable to the
Partnership, as of December 31, 2007. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based
on its assessment, Management of the General Partner concluded that the General Partners internal control over financial reporting, as is applicable to the Partnership, was effective as of December 31, 2007.

The Partnership is a non-accelerated filer for the 2007 fiscal year. Accordingly, the Partnerships independent registered public accounting firm is not
currently required to issue an audit report on the Partnerships internal control over financial reporting.

Changes in internal control

There were no changes in the General Partners internal control over financial reporting, as is applicable to the Partnership, during the
quarter ended December 31, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the General Partners internal control over financial reporting, as is applicable to the Partnership.
