NOTE 1.  GENERAL

       Textainer Equipment Income Fund VI (the Partnership) is a California
       Limited Partnership founded in 1995. The Partnership owns and leases a
       fleet of intermodal marine cargo container equipment (the Equipment) to
       international shipping lines.

        The accompanying interim comparative financial statements have not been
        audited by an independent public accountant. However, all adjustments
        (which were only normal and recurring adjustments), which are, in the
        opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the financial
        position of the Partnership as of June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995,
        and the results of its operations, changes in partners' capital, and
        cash flows for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996 and eleven-month
        period ended December 31, 1995, have been made.

        The financial information presented herein should be read in conjunction
        with the audited financial statements and the accompanying Notes
        included in the Partnership's audited financial statements as of
        December 31, 1995.

        For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Partnership considers
        all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity
        of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

        Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made in order
        to conform with the 1996 financial statement presentation.

NOTE 2.  ACQUISITION OF EQUIPMENT

        During the six-month period ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership
        purchased Equipment with a cost of $3,243.

NOTE 3.  TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

        Textainer Capital Corporation (TCC) is the Managing General Partner, and
        Textainer Equipment Management Limited (TEM) and Textainer Limited (TL)
        are the Associate General Partners of the Partnership. The Managing
        General Partner and Associate General Partners are collectively referred
        to as the General Partners. The General Partners manage and control the
        affairs of the Partnership. The General Partners also act in this
        capacity for other limited partnerships. Textainer Acquisition Services
        Limited (TAS) is an affiliate of the General Partners which performs
        services relative to the acquisition of Equipment outside the United
        States on behalf of the Partnership. TCC, TEM, TL and TAS are
        subsidiaries of Textainer Group Holdings Limited (TGH). TCC Securities
        Corporation (TSC), a licensed broker and dealer in securities and an
        affiliate of the General Partners, is the Managing Sales agent for the
        offering of units for sale. The General Partners manage and control the
        affairs of the Partnership.

                       (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--CONTINUED

        In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, the net earnings or losses
        and partnership distributions are generally allocated 90.5% to the
        limited partners and 9.5% to the General Partners. Notwithstanding the
        above, in accordance with the Partnership Agreement, substantially all
        of the net losses for the period from February 1, 1995 (inception)
        through December 31, 1995 have been specially allocated to the General
        Partners.

        As part of the operation of the Partnership, the Partnership is to pay
        to the General Partners an incentive management fee, an equipment
        management fee and an equipment liquidation fee, as well as reimbursing
        the General Partners for certain administrative costs. These fees are
        for various services provided in connection with the administration and
        management of the Partnership. No incentive management or equipment
        liquidation fees were incurred during the first six-month period of
        1996, or the period from February 1, 1995 (inception) through December
        31, 1995.

        The Equipment of the Partnership is managed by TEM. TEM has authority to
        acquire, hold, manage, lease, sell and dispose of the Equipment.
        Additionally, TEM holds, for the payment of direct operating expenses, a
        reserve of cash that has been collected from Equipment leasing
        operations; such cash is netted in the amount due to affiliates at June
        30, 1996 and December 31, 1995

 .       Subject to certain reductions, TEM receives a monthly Equipment
        management fee equal to 7% of gross revenues attributable to operating
        leases and 2% of gross revenues attributable to full payout net leases.
        These fees totaled $115 and $51 for the six-month period ended June 30,
        1996 and the period from February 1, 1995 (inception) through December
        31, 1995, respectively. The Equipment is leased by TEM to third-party
        lessees on operating master leases, spot leases and term leases. The
        majority are operating leases with limited terms and no purchase
        options.

        Certain indirect general and administrative costs incurred in performing
        administrative services necessary to the operation of the Partnership
        are borne by TEM and allocated to the Partnership based on the ratio of
        the Partnership's interest in managed Equipment to the total equipment
        managed by TEM. Indirect general and administrative costs allocated to
        the Partnership were $130 and $77 for the six-month period ended June
        30, 1996 and the period from February 1, 1995 (inception) through
        December 31, 1995, respectively.

        TCC, in its capacity as managing general partner, also incurred general
        and administrative costs of $21 and $17 for the six-month period ended
        June 30, 1996 and the period from February 1, 1995 (inception) through
        December 31, 1995, respectively.

        The General Partners or TAS may acquire Equipment in their own name and
        hold title on a temporary basis for the purpose of facilitating the
        acquisition of such Equipment for the Partnership. The Equipment may
        then be resold to the Partnership on an all-cash basis at a price equal
        to the actual cost, as defined in the Partnership Agreement.

       The Partnership pays a managing sales agent fee to TSC of up to 9% of the
       gross proceeds from the sale of limited partnership units, from which TSC
       pays commissions to independent participating broker/dealers who
       participate in the offering. The amount of the managing sales agent fee
       and the broker/dealers' commissions are determined by the volume of units
       sold to each investor by the broker/dealers. The General Partners or TSC
       will pay, out of their own corporate funds, all other organization,

        These amounts payable to TEM, TCC and TSC were incurred in the ordinary
        course of business between the Partnership and its affiliates and
        represent timing differences in the accrual and payment of expenses and
        fees described above or the accrual and collection of net rental
        revenues by TEM. The amounts payable to TL include $2,829 which was used
        to facilitate Equipment purchases and make cash collateral deposits
        required under the revolving credit facility (note 5).

        It is the policy of the Partnership and the General Partners to charge
        interest on intercompany balances which were outstanding for more than
        one month to the extent such balances relate to loans for Equipment
        purchases. Interest is charged to the Partnership based on the Prime
        Rate or London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus certain margins based
        on TGH's leverage ratio. During the six-month period ended June 30, 1996
        and the period from February 1, 1995 (inception) through December 31,
        1995, the Partnership incurred $128 and $31, respectively, in interest
        charged by the General Partners and their affiliates.

NOTE 5.  REVOLVING CREDIT LINE

        The Partnership has a short-term revolving credit facility (the
        Facility) with an available limit of $25,000 expiring June 30, 1997,
        which is available for Equipment purchases. Until such time as the
        Partnership has raised a minimum of $25,000 from the sale of Limited
        Partnership interests (the Guarantee Period), TGH and TL (the
        Guarantors) have guaranteed the outstanding principal and interest under
        the Facility. Balances borrowed under the Facility bear interest at
        either the Prime Rate (8.25% at June 30, 1996) plus .25%, or LIBOR plus
        1.75%, and are secured by all assets of the Partnership. The Partnership
        pays a commitment fee of 1/2% per annum on the unused portion of the
        Facility. This fee, as well as the interest on any amounts borrowed, is
        payable quarterly in arrears. Should the Facility not be renewed upon
        its expiration, it may, at the Partnership's option, be converted to a
        four-year term loan, with interest at either the Prime Rate plus 2.25%,
        or LIBOR plus 3.25%. The Partnership can borrow an amount up to the sum
        of 90% of the net book value of

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--CONTINUED

        Equipment purchased plus the amount of the cash collateral deposit
        maintained during the Guarantee Period. After the guarantee has been
        terminated, the Partnership can borrow an amount up to the sum of 60% of
        the net book value of Equipment plus the amount of the cash collateral
        deposit maintained.

        At June 30, 1996, the Partnership had borrowed $24,780 under this
        Facility to finance Equipment purchases and maintained restricted cash
        collateral deposits of $2,753. The cash collateral is held in a
        market-rate (4.40% at June 30, 1996), interest-bearing checking account.
        The account is restricted in use and pledged as collateral for the
        Facility. Subsequent to June 30, 1996, $1,500 was repaid under this
        Facility.

        Substantially all of the Partnership's borrowings are currently bearing
        interest based on the thirty-day LIBOR rate plus 1.75%. The applicable
        thirty-day LIBOR rate as of July 29, 1996 was 5.438%.

NOTE 6.  COMMITMENTS

        At June 30, 1996, the Partnership has committed to purchase 2 containers
        at an approximate total purchase price of $7. These commitments were
        made to TAS, which, as the contracting party, has in turn committed to
        purchase this Equipment on behalf of the Partnership.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

            (Dollar amounts in thousands except for per unit amounts)

The Financial Statements contain information which will assist in evaluating the
financial condition of the Partnership for the six-month period ended June 30,
1996. Please refer to the Financial Statements and Notes thereto in connection
with the following discussion.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Partnership began its offering of limited partnership interests to the
public on May 10, 1996. The Partnership received its minimum subscription amount
of $1,100 on June 17, 1996 and had received offering proceeds totaling $2,371 as
of June 30, 1996.

The Partnership has a short-term revolving credit facility (the Facility) with
an available limit of $25,000 expiring June 30, 1997, which is available for
Equipment purchases. Until such time as the Partnership has raised a minimum of
$25,000 from the sale of Limited Partnership interests (the Guarantee Period),
TGH and TL (the Guarantors) have guaranteed the outstanding principal and
interest under the Facility. Balances borrowed under the Facility bear interest
at either the Prime Rate plus .25%, or LIBOR plus 1.75%, and are secured by all
assets of the Partnership. The Partnership pays a commitment fee of 1/2% per
annum on the unused portion of the Facility. This fee, as well as the interest
on any amounts borrowed, is payable quarterly in arrears. Should the Facility
not be renewed upon its expiration, it may, at the Partnership's option, be
converted to a four-year term loan, with interest at either the Prime Rate plus
2.25%, or LIBOR plus 3.25%. The Partnership can borrow an amount up to the sum
of 90% of the net book value of Equipment purchased plus the amount of the cash
collateral deposit maintained during the Guarantee Period. After the guarantee
has been terminated, the Partnership can borrow an amount up to the sum of 60%
of the net book value of Equipment plus the amount of the cash collateral
deposit maintained.

On or before termination of its offering of limited partnership interests to the
public, the Partnership intends to use available offering proceeds to repay the
outstanding balance under the Facility. In the event that the Partnership cannot
repay the Facility upon the offering termination, TL or an affiliate will, at
the Partnership's request, repay part of the outstanding balance and, in
exchange, the Partnership will sell a portion of its Equipment to TL or its
affiliate (or to a third party located by TL). The original purchase price of
the Equipment sold will be equal to the amount of the Facility repaid by TL or
its affiliate. The net sales price for this Equipment will be the Partnership's
purchase price for such Equipment reduced by any net revenues (that is,
Equipment's pro-rata share of revenues and expenses, including management fees
and interest) realized by the Partnership with respect to such Equipment. (See
"Risk Factors: Operating Risks" in the Prospectus.)

At June 30, 1996, the Partnership had borrowed $24,780 under this Facility to
finance Equipment purchases and maintained restricted cash collateral deposits
of $2,753. The cash collateral is held in a market-rate (4.40% at June 30,
1996), interest-bearing checking account. The account is restricted in use and
pledged as collateral for the Facility. Subsequent to June 30, 1996, $1,500 was
repaid under this Facility.

Substantially all of the Partnership's borrowings are currently bearing interest
based on the thirty-day LIBOR rate. The applicable thirty-day LIBOR rate as of
July 29, 1996 was 5.438%.

The Partnership's policy is to maintain minimum working capital reserves in an
amount equal to 1% of aggregate offering proceeds during the offering period and
until proceeds received in the offering (less reserves) are invested in
Equipment. Thereafter, working capital reserves may be established at such
levels as the Managing General Partner deems necessary to serve the best
interest of the Partnership, but in no

                                       12
<PAGE>   13
event less than the lesser of (i) 1% of aggregate offering proceeds, or (ii)
$100. (See "Business of the Partnership: Reserves" in the Prospectus.) The
Partnership invests working capital and cash flow from operations prior to its
distribution to the Partners in short-term, liquid investments. At June 30,
1996, the Partnership's cash of $2,249 was primarily invested in money market
accounts.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership had net cash
activities of $1,483. For the period from February 1, 1995 (inception) through
December 31, 1995, net cash used in operating activities totaled $1,610. These
amounts reflect the Partnership's commencement of operations, including the
receipt of rental revenues and payment of expenses as the Equipment fleet grows.
Net cash used in investing activities for the same periods were $5,379 and
$21,989, respectively which reflects the amounts the Partnership has invested in
Equipment during these periods.

While it is expected that net cash from operating activities will continue to
improve during the initial purchase and lease-up phase of the Partnership, such
improvement may be tempered by the fact that the Partnership's principal
lessees, shipping lines, are currently experiencing over-capacity, in part due
to the delivery of new ships. This over-capacity has, in some instances, caused
shipping lines to reduce freight rates, which could affect the profitability of
their business, resulting in the possibility of delays in the remittance of
rental payments, pressure on Equipment rental rates, and, in extreme cases,
bankruptcy of some shipping lines. As discussed more fully below under "Results
of Operations", utilization rates have reflected a lower demand for Equipment,
and this over-capacity could further affect these rates.

At June 30, 1996, the Partnership had committed to purchase 2 containers at an
approximate total price of $7. In the event the Partnership decides not to
purchase the Equipment, one of the General Partners or its affiliates will
retain the Equipment for its own account.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Because the Partnership has only recently been formed, the results of its
operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996 and for the period from
February 1, 1995 (inception) through December 31, 1995 are not representative of
the results expected after the discontinuation of the Offering and the
completion of the purchase of the initial portfolio of Equipment. The
Partnership sustained net losses of $552 and $400 during the six-month period
ended June 30, 1996 and the period from February 1, 1995 (inception) through
December 31, 1995, respectively. These financial results include non-cash
depreciation expenses of $738 and $429 for the respective periods.

The Partnership's operations, which consist of rental revenue, Equipment
depreciation, direct operating expenses, management fees, interest, and
reimbursement of administrative expenses were directly related to the size of
the Equipment fleet during the six-month period ended June 30, 1996 and the
period from February 1, 1995 (inception) to December 31, 1995. The following is
a summary of the size of the Equipment fleet (in units) at the end of each
quarter during the period from February 1, 1995 (inception) through June 30,
1996.

              June 30, 1995.................         198
              September 30, 1995............       3,995
              December 31, 1995.............       6,614
              March 31, 1996................       7,239
              June 30, 1996.................       7,596

Rental income and direct operating expenses are also affected by the lease
utilization percentages for the Equipment which were 73% and 57% on average
during the six-month period ended June 30, 1996 and the period from June 1995 to
December 1995; utilization as of June 30, 1996 was 77%. Lease utilization
percentages tend to increase gradually during the initial purchase and lease-up
phase of the Partnership.

                                       13
<PAGE>   14
Carefully managed additions of Equipment, and the time required to lease the
Equipment contribute to the lease utilization percentage growth.

The Partnership's results of operations may be affected by other economic
factors. For Textainer's Equipment fleet, utilization rates rose during the
first three quarters of 1995, but began to decrease during the fourth quarter
and continued to decline in the first and second quarters of 1996. The General
Partners believe that this softening in demand has been due, in part, to a
slow-down in activity in the Asia-North America trade route as well as to
seasonal factors. The General Partners have seen recent evidence of some
stabilization in utilization rates for certain Equipment types; however, there
can be no assurance regarding the trend for utilization in the future. Rental
rates have also been restrained by quantity rate discounts granted to the
Partnership's larger Equipment lessees. Additionally, as previously discussed,
shipping lines, which will be the principal lessees of the Equipment, are
currently experiencing over-capacity, which may adversely affect rental payments
and/or rates and utilization.

Although substantially all of the Partnership's income from operations is
derived from assets employed in foreign operations, virtually all of this income
is denominated in United States dollars. The Partnership's customers are
international shipping lines which transport goods on international trade
routes. The domicile of the lessee is not indicative of where the lessee is
transporting the Equipment. The Partnership's business risk in its foreign
operations lies with the creditworthiness of the lessees, and the Partnership's
ability to keep the Equipment under lease, rather than the geographic location
of the Equipment or the domicile of the lessees. The Equipment is generally
operated on the international high seas rather than on the domestic waterways.
The Equipment is subject to the risk of war or other political, economic or
social occurrence where the Equipment is used, which may result in the loss of
Equipment, which, in turn, may have a material impact on the Partnership's
results of operations and financial condition. The General Partners are not
aware of any conditions as of June 30, 1996 which would result in such risk
materializing. Other risks of the Partnership's leasing operations include
competition, the cost of repositioning Equipment after it comes off-lease, the
risk of an uninsured loss, increases in maintenance expenses or other costs of
operating the Equipment, and the effect of world trade and/or general business
and economic cycles on the Partnership's operations. (See "Risk Factors:
Business Risks" in the Prospectus.)
