                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)



Note 1.  General.

         The accompanying  unaudited  condensed  financial  statements have been
prepared by the  Partnership in accordance  with generally  accepted  accounting
principles, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. In the opinion of Management,  all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring  accruals)  considered  necessary  for a fair  presentation  have been
included. Although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make
the information  presented not misleading,  it is suggested that these condensed
financial  statements be read in conjunction  with the financial  statements and
the notes included in the Partnership's  Financial Statement,  as filed with the
SEC in the latest annual report on Form 10-K.


Note 2.  Reclassification.

         Reclassification  - Certain  1995  amounts  have been  reclassified  to
conform to the 1996 presentation.


Note 3.  Income Taxes.

         Federal  and state  income tax  regulations  provide  that taxes on the
income  or loss of the  Partnership  are  reportable  by the  partners  in their
individual income tax returns. Accordingly, no provision for such taxes has been
made in the accompanying financial statements.


Note 4.  Net Income (Loss) and Distributions per Limited Partnership Unit.

         Net income and distributions per limited partnership unit were based on
the limited  partner's share of net income and  distributions,  and the weighted
average number of units  outstanding of 297,165 for the nine month periods ended
September  30, 1996 and 1995.  For  purposes  of  allocating  income  (loss) and
distributions to each individual limited partner, the Partnership  allocates net
income (loss) and  distributions  based upon each respective  limited  partner's
ending capital account balance.  The use of this method accurately reflects each
limited  partner's  participation  in  the  partnership  including  reinvestment
through the Capital Accumulation Plan. As a result the calculation of net income
(loss) and distributions  per limited  Partnership unit is not indicative of per
unit income (loss) and  distributions  due to reinvestments  through the Capital
Accumulation Plan.

                         PHOENIX LEASING INCOME FUND VI

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations.

Results of Operations

         The Partnership  reported net income of $24,000 and $137,000 during the
three and nine months ended  September 30, 1996,  respectively,  compared to net
income of $126,000 and $898,000 during the three and nine months ended September
30,  1995.  The  decrease  in  net  income  during  both  periods  is  primarily
attributable to a decrease in revenues.

         Total revenues decreased by $86,000 and $726,000 for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1996,  respectively,  as compared to the same periods
in 1995.  The decrease for both the three and nine months  ended  September  30,
1996,  compared to the prior year, is  attributable to declines in rental income
and earnings  from joint  ventures.  In  addition,  during the nine months ended
September  30,  1996,  the  absence of interest  income from a note  receivable,
compared  to  interest  income  from  notes   receivable  of  $308,000  in  1995
contributed  to the  decline  in  total  revenues.  The  Partnership  recognized
interest  income from a note receivable of $308,000 during the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 as a result of the  Partnership  receiving a settlement  from
its one remaining note receivable which was impaired. The amount received as the
settlement was first applied towards the outstanding note receivable balance and
the remainder was recognized as interest income.

         Due to the settlement  received on the one remaining  note  receivable,
the  balance of the  general  allowance  for losses on notes  receivable  was no
longer necessary.  As a result, the remaining balance of $147,000 was recognized
as  income  which  decreased  total  expenses  for both the  nine  months  ended
September 30, 1995. The settlement  also caused  management  fees to the General
Partner to be higher for the nine months ended September 30, 1995.

         The decline in rental  income of $26,000 and $329,000 for the three and
nine months ended  September 30, 1996,  respectively,  also  contributed  to the
decline  in  total  revenues  for  1996.  The  reduction  in  rental  income  is
attributable  to the  decrease in the  equipment  owned by the  Partnership.  At
September 30, 1996, the Partnership  owned equipment with an aggregate  original
cost  of  $836,000  as  compared  to  $2,774,000  at  September  30,  1995.  The
Partnership  is currently in a  liquidation  phase.  As a result,  the equipment
portfolio will continue to decline as the Partnership continues to liquidate its
remaining equipment as it comes off lease.

         The  Partnership  reported a gain on sale of  securities of $19,000 for
the nine months ended  September  30, 1996.  This gain on sale of  securities is
attributable to the  Partnership  selling a portion of its investment in Storage
Technology  Corporation  common  stock,  receiving  proceeds  from  the  sale of
$90,000.

Joint Ventures

         The Partnership has made investments in various equipment and financing
joint ventures along with other affiliated  partnerships  managed by the General
Partner for the purpose of spreading the risk of investing in certain  equipment
leasing and  financing  transactions.  These joint  ventures  are not  currently
making  any  significant  additional  investments  in new  equipment  leasing or
financing  transactions.  As a  result,  the  earnings  and cash  flow from such
investments  are  anticipated  to  continue  to  decline as the  portfolios  are
re-leased at lower rental rates and the equipment is  liquidated.  Earnings from
joint ventures decreased by $32,000 and $53,000 during the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1996, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1995.

                                                                    Page 9 of 11


Liquidity and Capital Resources

         During the nine months ended  September 30, 1996,  the net cash used by
leasing  and  financing  activities  was  $219,000,  as compared to the net cash
provided by leasing  and  financing  activities  of $415,000  during  1995.  The
decrease in cash  generated for the nine months ended  September 30, 1996 is due
to the absence of  principal  payments  from notes  receivable.  During the nine
months ended September 30, 1995, the Partnership  received a settlement from its
one remaining outstanding note receivable.

         The  distributions  from  joint  ventures  continues  to be  one of the
primary sources of cash generated by the Partnership.  Cash  distributions  from
joint  ventures were  $274,000 for the nine months ended  September 30, 1996 and
$394,000 for the nine months ended  September 30, 1995.  The slight  decrease in
distributions for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to 1995,
is attributable to the closure of one joint venture during 1995, as well as, the
decrease in rental receipts from several other joint  ventures.  The decrease in
rental  receipts is a result of equipment  being re-leased at lower rental rates
and equipment being sold.

          As of September 30, 1996,  the  Partnership  owned  equipment held for
lease  with a purchase  price of  $685,000  and a net book  value of $1,000,  as
compared to $2,096,000 and $0 at September 30, 1995,  respectively.  The General
Partner is actively  engaged,  on behalf of the Partnership,  in remarketing and
selling the Partnership's off-lease equipment portfolio.

         The limited partners  received their annual  distribution of $2,228,000
during both the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. As a result,  the
cumulative  cash  distributions  to the limited  partners  are  $75,915,000  and
$73,687,000 at September 30, 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The General  Partner
did not receive  distributions  during the nine months ended  September 30, 1996
and 1995.

         The Partnership will reach the end of its term on December 31, 1997, at
which time it will liquidate its remaining assets and make a final  distribution
to partners of the excess  cash,  if any.  The  Partnership  currently  does not
anticipate making any further  distribution to partners until the termination of
the Partnership.

         As the Partnership's  asset portfolio  continues to decline as a result
of the on-going  liquidation  of assets,  it is expected that the cash generated
from  operations  will also decline.  Cash  generated from leasing and financing
operations  has been and is anticipated to continue to be sufficient to meet the
Partnership's on-going operational expenses.
