FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
- --------------------------

         When  used  within  this  document,  the words  "expects,"  "believes,"
"anticipates,"  "should,"  "estimates," and similar  expressions are intended to
identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of that term in Section
27A of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1933, as amended,  and in Section 21F of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements
involve known and unknown risks,  uncertainties,  and other  factors,  which may
cause the actual  results and  performance  of the  Partnership to be materially
different  from those  expressed or implied in the forward  looking  statements.
Such factors include the impact of competition from new and existing real estate
facilities  which could  impact  rents and  occupancy  levels at the real estate
facilities that the Partnership has an interest in; the Partnership's ability to
effectively  compete in the markets that it does  business in; the impact of the
regulatory  environment  as  well  as  national,   state,  and  local  laws  and
regulations including, without limitation, those governing Partnerships; and the
impact of general economic  conditions upon rental rates and occupancy levels at
the real estate facilities that the Partnership has an interest in.

GENERAL
- -------

         PS Partners VI, Ltd.  (the  "Partnership")  is a publicly  held limited
partnership  formed  under  the  California  Revised  Limited  Partnership  Act.
Commencing in October 1985, 150,000 units of limited  partnership  interest (the
"Units") were offered to the public in an interstate offering.  The offering was
completed in June 1986.

         The  Partnership   was  formed  to  invest  in  and  operate   existing
self-service  facilities  offering  storage  space for personal and business use
(the  "mini-warehouses")  and to  invest  up to 40% of the net  proceeds  of the
offering  in  and  operate  existing  office  and  industrial  properties.   The
Partnership's real estate investments consist of wholly-owned  facilities and an
investment  in a general  partnership  (SEI/PSP  VI Joint  Ventures,  the "Joint
Venture") with Public Storage,  Inc.  ("PSI"),  a real estate  investment  trust
("REIT") organized as a corporation under the laws of California

         The Partnership's general partners (the "General Partners") are PSI and
B.  Wayne  Hughes  ("Hughes").  Hughes  is the  chairman  of the board and chief
executive  officer of PSI,  and Hughes and  members of his family  (the  "Hughes
Family") are the major shareholders of PSI. The Partnership is managed,  and its
investment decisions are made by Hughes and the executive officers and directors
of PSI. The limited  partners of the Partnership have no right to participate in
the management or conduct of its business  affairs.  PSI believes that it is the
largest operator of mini-warehouse facilities in the United States.

         Through 1996,  the business  parks of the Joint Venture were managed by
Public  Storage  Commercial  Properties  Group,  Inc.  ("PSCPG")  pursuant  to a
Management Agreement.  In January 1997, the Joint Venture, PSI and other related
partnerships transferred a total of 35 business parks to PS Business Parks, L.P.
("PSBPLP"),  formerly  known  as  American  Office  Park  Properties,  L.P.,  an
operating  partnership formed to own and operate business parks in which PSI has
a significant  interest.  Included  among the  properties  transferred  were the
business  parks of the Joint Venture in exchange for a  partnership  interest in
PSBPLP.  Until March 17, 1998, the general partner of PSBPLP was American Office
Park Properties,  Inc., an affiliate of PSI. On March 17, 1998,  American Office
Park Properties,  Inc. was merged into Public Storage Properties XI, Inc., which
changed its name to PS Business Parks, Inc. ("PSBP").  PSBP is a REIT affiliated
with PSI, and is publicly traded on the American Stock Exchange.  As a result of
the merger,  PSBP became the general  partner of PSBPLP (which  changed its name
from American Office Park Properties, L.P. to PS Business Parks, L.P.). See Item
13.

         PSI's current  relationship with the Partnership includes (i) the joint
ownership  of  30  of  the  Partnership's  32  properties  (which  excludes  the
properties  transferred  to PSBPLP in January  1997),  (ii) PSI is a  co-general
partner  along with  Hughes,  who is chairman  of the board and chief  executive
officer of PSI, (iii) as of January 1, 2000, PSI owned  approximately  61.48% of

                                       2

<PAGE>

the Partnership's  limited partnership units and (iv) PSI is the operator of the
32 properties in which the  Partnership has an interest (these 32 properties are
referred to collectively hereinafter as the "Mini-Warehouse Properties").

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
- ----------------------------------

         The  Partnership's  objectives are to (i) preserve and protect invested
capital,   (ii)  maximize  the  potential  for  appreciation  in  value  of  its
investments,  (iii)  provide  Federal  income tax  deductions so that during the
early  years of  property  operations  a portion  of cash  distributions  may be
treated  as a  return  of  capital  for tax  purposes,  and  therefore,  may not
represent  taxable  income to the limited  partners,  and (iv)  provide for cash
distributions from operations.

         The Partnership  will terminate on December 31, 2038,  unless dissolved
earlier.  Under the terms of the general partnership agreement with PSI, PSI has
the right to require the Partnership to sell all of the properties  owned by the
Joint Venture (see Item 12(c)).

         The Partnership  engaged  Lawrence R. Nicholson,  MAI, a principal with
the firm of  Nicholson-Douglas  Realty  Consultants,  Inc. ("NDRC") to perform a
limited  investigation  and appraisal of the properties owned by the Partnership
and Joint Venture.  In a letter  appraisal  report dated December 31, 1996, NDRC
indicated that, based on the assumptions  contained in the report, the aggregate
market  value  of the  Mini-Warehouse  Properties  (consisting  not  only of the
Partnership's  interest but also including PSI's  interest),  as of December 31,
1996, was $75,000,000. NDRC's report is limited in that NDRC did not inspect the
properties  and relied  primarily  upon the income  capitalization  approach  in
arriving at its opinion.  NDRC's aggregate value conclusion  represents the 100%
property  interests,  and  although  not valued  separately,  includes  both the
interest of the Partnership in the  properties,  as well as the interest of PSI,
which owns a joint venture interest (ranging from about 50% to 77%) in 30 of the
Mini-Warehouse  Properties.  The  analytical  process that was undertaken in the
appraisal  included  a review  of the  properties'  unit mix,  rental  rates and
historical financial statements.  Following these reviews, a stabilized level of
net  operating  income  was  projected  for the  Mini-Warehouse  Properties  (an
aggregate  of  $7,282,000).  Value  estimates were then made using both a direct
capitalization  analysis  ($76,400,000)  and a  discounted  cash  flow  analysis
($74,700,000).   In  applying  the   discounted   cash  flow   analysis  to  the
mini-warehouses,  projections of cash flow from each property were developed for
an 11-year period ending in the year 2007.  Growth rates for income and expenses
were assumed to be 3.5% per year. NDRC then used a terminal  capitalization rate
of 10.0% to capitalize  each  property's  11th year net operating  income into a
residual value at the end of the holding period.  The ten yearly cash flows plus
the residual or reversionary proceeds net of sales costs were then discounted to
present  worth  using a discount  rate of 12.5%.  In the  direct  capitalization
analysis,  NDRC  applied  a 9.5%  capitalization  rate  to the  mini-warehouses'
stabilized net operating income.  These value estimates were then compared to an
estimated  value   ($74,000,000)   using  a  regression   analysis   applied  to
approximately 300 sales of mini-warehouses to evaluate the reasonableness of the
estimates using the direct capitalization and discounted cash flow analysis.

         NDRC has prepared other  appraisals for the General  Partners and their
affiliates  and is expected to  continue to prepare  appraisals  for the General
Partners and their affiliates.  No environmental  investigations  were conducted
with  respect to the  limited  investigation  of the  Partnership's  properties.
Accordingly,  NDRC's  appraisal  did not take  into  account  any  environmental
cleanup or other costs that might be incurred in  connection  with a disposition
of the  properties.  Although  there  can be no  assurance,  based  on  recently
completed  environmental  investigations  (see Item 2), the  Partnership  is not
aware of any  environmental  contamination  of its  facilities  material  to its
overall business or financial condition. In addition to assuming compliance with
applicable  environmental laws, the appraisal also assumed,  among other things,
compliance  with  applicable  zoning and use  regulations  and the  existence of
required licenses.

                                       3

         Limited  Partners  should  recognize that appraisals are opinions as of
the date specified,  are subject to certain  assumptions and the appraised value
of the Partnership's properties may not represent their true worth or realizable
value. There can be no assurance that, if these properties were sold, they would
be sold at the appraised  values;  the sales price might be higher or lower than
the appraised values.

COMPETITION
- -----------

         Competition  in the market areas in which the  Partnership  operates is
significant  and  affects  the  occupancy  levels,  rental  rates and  operating
expenses  of  certain  of  the  Partnerships  facilities.  Recent  increases  in
development of mini-warehouse  facilities have intensified the competition among
mini-warehouse operators in many market areas in which the Partnership operates.
In recent  years  consolidation  has occurred in the  fragmented  mini-warehouse
industry.

         The Partnership  believes that the significant  operating and financial
experience of PSI's  officers and  directors,  combined  with the  Partnership's
geographic  diversity,  economies of scale and the "Public Storage" name, should
enable the Partnership to continue to compete effectively with other entities.

BUSINESS ATTRIBUTES
- -------------------

         Under  PSI  operation,  the  Partnership's  facilities  are  part  of a
comprehensive   distribution   system  encompassing   standardized   procedures,
integrated  reporting and information networks and centralized  marketing.  This
distribution  system  is  designed  to  maximize  revenue  through  pricing  and
occupancy.  The distribution system was significantly  enhanced during 1996 with
the introduction and implementation of the national telephone reservation center
and new facility management software.

         NATIONAL TELEPHONE  RESERVATION  SYSTEM:  Commencing in early 1996, PSI
began to implement a national  telephone  reservation system designed to provide
added  customer  service and maximize  utilization  of available  mini-warehouse
space.  Customers calling either the PSI's toll-free  telephone referral system,
(800)  44-STORE,  or a  mini-warehouse  facility  are  directed to the  national
reservation  system where a  representative  discusses  with the customer  space
requirements, price and location.

         PSI  believes  that  the  national  telephone  reservation  system  has
enhanced the Partnership's  ability to effectively market  mini-warehouse and is
primarily  responsible for the  Partnership's  increasing  occupancy  levels and
realized rental rates  experienced at the  mini-warehouse  facilities during the
past three years.

         ECONOMIES OF SCALE: PSI is the largest provider of mini-warehouse space
in the  industry.  As of December 31, 1999,  PSI operated  1,358  mini-warehouse
facilities  (including  35 managed for third  parties) in 37 states and had over
663,000 spaces rented.  The size and scope of the PSI's  operations have enabled
it to  achieve a  consistently  high  level of profit  margins  and low level of
administrative costs relative to revenues.

         BRAND NAME  RECOGNITION:  The  Partnership's  operations  are conducted
under the "Public  Storage" brand name,  which the  Partnership  believes is the
most recognized and established name in the mini-warehouse industry. PSI manages
mini-warehouse operations conducted in 37 states, giving it national recognition
and  prominence.  PSI focuses its  operations  within  those states in the major
metropolitan markets. This concentration  establishes PSI as one of the dominant
providers of storage  space in each market that it operates in and enables it to
use  a  variety  of  promotional  activities,   such  as  television  and  radio
advertising as well as targeted  discounting and referrals,  which are generally
not economically viable to its competitors.

INVESTMENTS IN FACILITIES
- -------------------------

         The  Partnership  owns  interests  in  32  properties   (excluding  the
properties  transferred  to PSBPLP in January 1997);  30 of such  properties are
owned  by the  Joint  Venture.  Reference  is made to the  table in Item 2 for a
summary of information about the Partnership's properties.

MINI-WAREHOUSES
- ---------------

         Mini-warehouses,  which  comprise  the  majority  of the  Partnership's
investments,  are designed to offer  accessible  storage  space for personal and
business use at a relatively low cost. A user rents a fully enclosed space which
is for the  user's  exclusive  use and to which  only the user has  access on an
unrestricted   basis   during   business   hours.   On-site   operation  is  the
responsibility  of resident  managers who are supervised by area managers.  Some
mini-warehouses  also  include  rentable  uncovered  parking  areas for  vehicle
storage.  Leases for  mini-warehouse  space may be on a long-term or  short-term
basis,  although typically spaces are rented on a month-to-month  basis.  Rental
rates vary according to the location of the property and the size of the storage
space.

         Users of space in  mini-warehouses  include both  individuals and large
and small  businesses.  Individuals  usually  employ  this space for storage of,
among other things, furniture, household appliances,  personal belongings, motor
vehicles,  boats,  campers,  motorcycles and other household  goods.  Businesses
normally employ this space for storage of excess  inventory,  business  records,
seasonal goods, equipment and fixtures.

         The  Mini-Warehouse  Properties  generally  consist  of  three to seven
buildings  containing an aggregate of between 192 to 1,194 storage spaces,  most
of  which  have  between  25 and 400  square  feet  and an  interior  height  of
approximately 8 to 12 feet.

         The Mini-Warehouse Properties experience minor seasonal fluctuations in
the occupancy levels of  mini-warehouses  with occupancies  higher in the summer
months  than  in  the  winter  months.  The  Partnership   believes  that  these
fluctuations result in part from increased moving activity during the summer.

         The Mini-Warehouse  Properties are  geographically  diversified and are
generally  located in heavily  populated  areas and close to  concentrations  of
apartment  complexes,  single family  residences  and  commercial  developments.
However,  there may be  circumstances  in which it may be  appropriate  to own a
property  in a less  populated  area,  for  example,  in an area  that is highly
visible  from a major  thoroughfare  and  close to,  although  not in, a heavily
populated area. Moreover,  in certain population centers,  land costs and zoning
restrictions may create a demand for space in nearby less populated areas.

         As  with  most  other  types  of  real  estate,   the   conversion   of
mini-warehouses to alternative uses in connection with a sale or otherwise would
generally require substantial capital expenditures. However, the Partnership and
the Joint  Venture do not intend to convert  the  Mini-Warehouse  Properties  to
other uses.

MINI-WAREHOUSE PROPERTY OPERATOR
- --------------------------------

         The  Mini-Warehouse  Properties  are  managed  by  PSI  pursuant  to  a
Management Agreement.

         Under the  supervision of the  Partnership  and the Joint Venture,  PSI
coordinates  the operation of the  facilities,  establishes  rental policies and
rates,  directs  marketing  activity and directs the  purchase of equipment  and
supplies, maintenance activity, and the selection and engagement of all vendors,
supplies and independent contractors.

         PSI engages,  at the expense of the property owners,  employees for the
operation of the owners'  facilities,  including  resident  managers,  assistant
managers, relief managers, and billing and maintenance personnel. Some or all of
these employees may be employed on a part-time basis and may also be employed by
other persons, partnerships,  REITs or other entities owning facilities operated
by PSI.

                                       5

<PAGE>

         In the purchasing of services such as advertising  (including broadcast
media advertising) and insurance, PSI attempts to achieve economies by combining
the resources of the various facilities that it operates. Facilities operated by
PSI  have  historically  carried   comprehensive   insurance,   including  fire,
earthquake, liability and extended coverage.

         PSI has developed systems for space inventory,  accounting and handling
delinquent  accounts,  including a  computerized  network  linking PSI  operated
facilities. Each project manager is furnished with detailed operating procedures
and typically  receives  facilities  management  training from PSI. Form letters
covering a variety of circumstances are also supplied to the project managers. A
record of actions  taken by the project  managers  when  delinquencies  occur is
maintained.

         The  Mini-Warehouse  Properties  are typically  advertised via signage,
yellow pages,  flyers and broadcast media advertising  (television and radio) in
geographic  areas in which many of the facilities are located.  Broadcast  media
and other advertising costs are charged to the facilities  located in geographic
areas affected by the  advertising.  From time to time,  PSI adopts  promotional
programs, such as temporary rent reductions, in selected areas or for individual
facilities.

         For as long as the Management  Agreement is in effect,  PSI has granted
the  Partnership  and the Joint  Venture  non-exclusive  license  to use two PSI
service  marks and related  designs,  including  the "Public  Storage"  name, in
conjunction  with rental and  operation of  facilities  managed  pursuant to the
Management  Agreement.   Upon  termination  of  the  Management  Agreement,  the
Partnership  and the Joint  Venture  would no  longer  have the right to use the
service marks and related designs. The General Partners believe that the loss of
the right to use the  service  marks and related  designs  could have a material
adverse effect on the Partnership's business.

         The  Management   Agreement  with  PSI  provides  that  the  Management
Agreement may be terminated  without cause upon 60 days written notice by either
party.

OTHER BUSINESS ACTIVITIES
- -------------------------

         A corporation  owned by the Hughes Family  reinsures  policies  against
losses  to  goods  stored  by  tenants  in the  Mini-Warehouse  Properties.  The
Partnership  believes that the  availability of insurance  reduces the potential
liability  of the  Partnership  and the Joint  Venture to tenants  for losses to
their goods from theft or destruction.  This  corporation  receives the premiums
and bears the risks associated with the insurance.

         A corporation,  in which PSI had a 95% economic interest and the Hughes
Family has a 5% economic interest, sells locks, boxes, and tape to tenants to be
used in securing  their  spaces and moving their  goods.  PSI believes  that the
availability of locks, boxes, and tape for sale promotes the rental of spaces.

EMPLOYEES
- ---------

         There are 111 persons who render  services on behalf of the Partnership
and the Joint  Venture.  These  persons  include  resident  managers,  assistant
managers, relief managers, district managers, and administrative personnel. Some
of these employees may be employed on a part time basis and may also be employed
by other  persons,  partnerships,  REITs,  or other entities  owning  facilities
operated by PSI or PSBPLP.

         The weighted average occupancy level for the Mini-Warehouse  Properties
remained  stable at 92% in 1998 and 1999. The annual  average  realized rent per
square  foot for the  Mini-Warehouse  Properties  was $8.16 in 1999  compared to
$7.96 in 1998.

         Substantially  all of the  facilities  were acquired  prior to the time
that it was customary to conduct environmental investigations in connection with
property  acquisitions.  During  the  fourth  quarter  of 1995,  an  independent
environmental  consulting  firm  completed  environmental   assessments  on  the
Mini-Warehouse  Properties  to  evaluate  the  environmental  condition  of, and
potential environmental  liabilities of, such properties.  Although there can be
no assurance, the Partnership is not aware of any environmental contamination of
any of its  property  sites  which  individually  or in the  aggregate  would be

ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR THE PARTNERSHIP'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
         ------------------------------------------------------------------
         MATTERS.
         --------

         The Partnership has no common stock.

         The Units are not listed on any national  securities exchange or quoted
on the NASDAQ System,  and there is no established public trading market for the
Units. Secondary sales activity for the Units has been limited and sporadic. The
General Partners monitor transfers of the Units (a) because the admission of the
transferee as a substitute  limited partner  requires the consent of the General
Partners  under the  Partnership's  Amended and  Restated  Agreement  of Limited
Partnership,  (b) in order to ensure  compliance with safe harbor  provisions to
avoid  treatment  as a "publicly  traded  partnership"  for tax purposes and (c)
because PSI has  purchased  Units.  However,  the  General  Partners do not have
information regarding the prices at which all secondary sale transactions in the
Units have been effectuated.  Various  organizations  offer to purchase and sell
limited  partnership  interests  (including  securities  of the type such as the
Units) in secondary sales transactions. Various publications such as The Stanger
Report  summarize  and  report  information  (on a  monthly,  bimonthly  or less
frequent basis) regarding  secondary sales  transactions in limited  partnership
interests  (including  the Units),  including the prices at which such secondary
sales transactions are effectuated.

         Exclusive of the General Partners'  interest in the Partnership,  as of
December 31, 1999, there were approximately 2,415 record holders of Units.

         The Partnership  makes quarterly  distributions  of all "Cash Available
for  Distribution"  and will  make  distributions  of all  "Cash  from  Sales or
Refinancing." Cash Available for Distribution is cash flow from all sources less
cash necessary for any obligations or capital improvements or reserves.

         Reference is made to Items 6 and 7 hereof for information on the amount
of such distributions.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
- --------------------------

         When  used  within  this  document,  the words  "expects,"  "believes,"
"anticipates,"  "should,"  "estimates," and similar  expressions are intended to
identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of that term in Section
27A of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1933, as amended,  and in Section 21F of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements
involve known and unknown risks,  uncertainties,  and other  factors,  which may
cause the actual  results and  performance  of the  Partnership to be materially
different  from those  expressed or implied in the forward  looking  statements.
Such factors include the impact of competition from new and existing real estate
facilities  which could  impact  rents and  occupancy  levels at the real estate
facilities that the Partnership has an interest in; the Partnership's ability to
effectively  compete in the markets that it does  business in; the impact of the
regulatory  environment  as  well  as  national,   state,  and  local  laws  and
regulations including, without limitation, those governing Partnerships; and the
impact of general economic  conditions upon rental rates and occupancy levels at
the real estate facilities that the Partnership has an interest in.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998:

         The  Partnership's  net  income  was  $3,030,000  in 1999  compared  to
$2,985,000 in 1998,  representing an increase of $45,000,  or 1.5%. The increase
is due primarily to the  Partnership's  share of an improvement in operations of
the   mini-warehouses   in  which  the   Partnership   has  an   interest   (the
"Mini-Warehouse Properties").

         PROPERTY OPERATIONS:  Rental income for the Partnership's  wholly-owned
mini-warehouse properties was $585,000 in 1999 compared to $573,000 during 1998,
representing  an increase of $12,000,  or 2.1%.  Cost of  operations  (including
management  fees) increased  $4,000,  or 1.5%, to $272,000 in 1999 from $268,000
during  1998.  Accordingly,  for the  Partnership's  mini-warehouse  operations,
property net operating  income  increased by $8,000,  or 2.6%,  from $305,000 in
1998 to $313,000 in 1999.

         EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF REAL ESTATE ENTITIES:  Equity in earnings of real
estate  entities was  $2,887,000 in 1999 as compared to $2,847,000  during 1998,
representing an increase of $40,000, or 1.4%. This increase was due primarily to
the  Partnership's  share of improved  operating  results at the Joint Venture's
mini-warehouse properties.

         DEPRECIATION   AND   AMORTIZATION:    Depreciation   and   amortization
attributable to the Mini-Warehouse  Properties  increased $12,000,  or 9.0% from
$134,000  in  1998  to  $146,000   during  1999.  This  increase  was  primarily
attributable to the depreciation of capital expenditures made during 1999.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997:

         The  Partnership's  net  income  was  $2,985,000  in 1998  compared  to
$2,680,000 in 1997, representing an increase of $305,000, or 11.4%. The increase
is due primarily to the  Partnership's  share of an improvement in operations of
the   mini-warehouses   in  which  the   Partnership   has  an   interest   (the
"Mini-Warehouse Properties").

         PROPERTY OPERATIONS:  Rental income for the Partnership's  wholly-owned
mini-warehouse properties was $573,000 in 1998 compared to $579,000 during 1997,
representing  a  decrease  of $6,000,  or 1.0%.  Cost of  operations  (including
management fees) increased $30,000,  or 12.6%, to $268,000 in 1998 from $238,000
during  1997.  Accordingly,  for the  Partnership's  mini-warehouse  operations,
property net operating income decreased by $36,000,  or 10.6%,  from $341,000 in
1997 to $305,000 in 1998.

         EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF REAL ESTATE ENTITIES:  Equity in earnings of real
estate  entities was  $2,847,000 in 1998 as compared to $2,500,000  during 1997,
representing an increase of $347,000,  or 13.9%. This increase was due primarily
to the Partnership's  share of improved operating results at the Joint Venture's
mini-warehouse properties.

                                       12

<PAGE>

         DEPRECIATION   AND   AMORTIZATION:    Depreciation   and   amortization
attributable to the  Mini-Warehouse  Properties  increased  $4,000, or 3.1% from
$130,000  in  1997  to  $134,000   during  1998.  This  increase  was  primarily
attributable to the depreciation of capital expenditures made during 1998.

SUPPLEMENTAL PROPERTY DATA

         During 1999 and 1998,  a majority of the  Partnership's  net income was
from the  Partnership's  share of the  operating  results of the  Mini-Warehouse
Properties. Therefore, in order to evaluate the Partnership's operating results,
the General  Partners  analyze the operating  performance of the  Mini-Warehouse
Properties.

         YEAR ENDED  DECEMBER 31, 1999  COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED  DECEMBER 31,
1998:  Rental income for the  Mini-Warehouse  Properties was $12,608,000 in 1999
compared to $12,333,000  during 1998,  representing an increase of $275,000,  or
2.2%.  The increase in rental  income was  primarily  attributable  to increased
rental rates. The annual average realized rent per square foot was $8.16 in 1999
compared to $7.96 in 1998. The weighted average occupancy levels remained stable
at 92% in  1998  and  1999.  Cost  of  operations  (including  management  fees)
increased $254,000,  or 5.4%, to $4,941,000 during 1999 from $4,687,000 in 1998.
This increase was primarily  attributable to increases in advertising,  property
tax  and  payroll  expenses.  Accordingly,  for the  Mini-Warehouse  Properties,
property net operating income increased by $21,000,  or 0.3%, from $7,646,000 in
1998 to $7,667,000 during 1999.

         YEAR ENDED  DECEMBER 31, 1998  COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED  DECEMBER 31,
1997:  Rental income for the  Mini-Warehouse  Properties was $12,333,000 in 1998
compared to $11,746,000  during 1997,  representing an increase of $587,000,  or
5.0%.  The increase in rental  income was  primarily  attributable  to increased
rental rates,  combined with  increased  average  occupancy  levels.  The annual
average  realized  rent per square  foot was $7.96 in 1998  compared to $7.63 in
1997. The weighted average occupancy levels increased from 91% in 1997 to 92% in
1998. Cost of operations  (including  management  fees) increased  $366,000,  or
8.5%,  to  $4,687,000  during 1998 from  $4,321,000  in 1997.  This increase was
primarily  attributable to increases in advertising,  property tax, payroll, and
repairs  and  maintenance   expenses.   Accordingly,   for  the   Mini-Warehouse
Properties,  property net operating income increased by $221,000,  or 3.0%, from
$7,425,000 in 1997 to $7,646,000 during 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

         The Partnership has adequate sources of cash to finance its operations,
both on a short-term and long-term basis, primarily by internally generated cash
from property  operations and  distributions  from Real Estate Entities combined
with cash on hand at December 31, 1999 of $2,092,000.

         Cash flows from operating activities and distributions from Real Estate
($5,379,000  for the year ended December 31, 1999) have been  sufficient to meet
all current obligations of the Partnership.  Total capital  improvements for the
Partnership's  wholly-owned  properties  were $69,000,  $37,000,  and $38,000 in
1999,  1998, and 1997,  respectively.  During 2000, the Partnership  anticipates
approximately $38,000 of capital improvements to the Partnership's  wholly-owned
properties.

         Total  distributions  paid to the  General  Partners  and  the  limited
partners (including per Unit amounts) for 1999 and prior years were as follows:

         The  Partnership,   in  prior  years,  made   distributions   based  on
anticipated operating cash flows. The General Partners distributed, concurrently
with the  distributions  for the  fourth  quarter  of  1991,  a  portion  of the
operating  reserve of the  Partnership  and adjusted  the on-going  distribution
level.  The operating  reserve that was  distributed  was estimated at $4.00 per
Unit. The 1997 distribution  includes a special distribution of cash reserves of
approximately  $5.94  per  Unit.  The  1999  distribution   includes  a  special
distribution  of  cash  reserves  of  approximately   $9.50  per  Unit.   Future
distribution levels will be based on cash available for distributions (cash flow
from all  sources,  less cash  necessary  for capital  improvement  needs and to
establish reserves).

IMPACT OF YEAR 2000
- -------------------

         The Year 2000 Issue arises  because many  computerized  systems use two
digits rather than four to identify a year. Date sensitive systems may recognize
the Year 2000 as 1900 or some other date,  resulting in errors when  information
using Year 2000 dates is processed.  In addition,  similar problems may arise in
some systems which use certain dates in 1999 to represent something other than a
date. Although the change in date to the Year 2000 has occurred and no Year 2000
Issues have been identified,  it is not possible to conclude that all aspects of
the Year 2000  Issue  that may affect the  entity,  including  those  related to
customers, suppliers, or other third parties, have been fully resolved.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

         The Partnership has no subsidiaries, directors or officers. See Item 13
for a  description  of certain  transactions  between  the  Partnership  and the
General Partners and their affiliates.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT.
         ---------------------------------------------------------------

         (a) At  January  1, 2000,  PSI  beneficially  owned more than 5% of the
Units of the Partnership:

     Title                                          Amount of          Percent
      of                  Name and Address of       Beneficial           of
     Class                 Beneficial Owner         Ownership           Class
- ----------------     -------------------------    ----------------    ----------
Units of Limited     Public Storage, Inc.
Partnership          701 Western Avenue
Interest             Glendale, CA 91201-2394      92,223 Units (1)    61.48% (1)

- ----------

(1)  These Units are held of record by SEI Arlington Acquisition Corporation,  a
     wholly-owned subsidiary of PSI.

         In  September  1997,  PSI  completed  a cash  tender  offer,  which had
commenced  in July  1997,  pursuant  to which  PSI  acquired  a total of  13,075
additional limited partnership units at $351 per Unit.

         The  Partnership  is not aware of any other  beneficial  owners of more
than 5% of the Units.

         (b) The Partnership has no officers and directors.

         The   General   Partners   (or  their   predecessor-in-interest)   have
contributed  $747,000 to the capital of the  Partnership  representing 1% of the
aggregate capital contributions and as a result participate in the distributions
to the limited partners and in the Partnership's  profits and losses in the same
proportion that the general  partners' capital  contribution  bears to the total
capital  contribution.  Information  regarding  ownership of the Units by PSI, a
General Partner, is set forth under section (a) above.

         (c) The Partnership knows of no contractual arrangements, the operation
of the terms of which may at a subsequent  date result in a change in control of
the  Partnership,  except  for  articles  16,  17 and 21.1 of the  Partnership's
Amended  Certificate  and Agreement of Limited  Partnership,  a copy of which is
included  in  the  Partnership's   prospectus   included  in  the  Partnership's
Registration  Statement File No. 2-98968.  Those articles provide, in substance,
that the limited  partners  shall have the right,  by majority vote, to remove a
general  partner and that a general  partner may designate a successor  with the
consent of the other general partner and a majority of the limited partners.

         The  Partnership  owns  interests in 32 properties  (which  exclude the
properties  transferred  to PSBPLP in January 1997);  30 of such  properties are
held in a general  partnership  comprised of the  Partnership and PSI. Under the
terms of the partnership  agreement relating to the ownership of the properties,

                                       18

<PAGE>

PSI has the  right to compel a sale of each  property  at any time  after  seven
years from the date of acquisition at not less than its independently determined
fair market value provided the  Partnership  receives its share of the net sales
proceeds  solely in cash. As of December 31, 1999,  PSI has the right to require
the Partnership to sell all of the Joint Venture's properties on these terms.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
         -----------------------------------------------

         The Partnership  Agreement provides that the General Partners and their
affiliates are entitled to the following compensation:

     1.  Incentive distributions equal to 10% of Cash Flow from Operations.

     2.  Provided the limited partners have received distributions equal to 100%
         of their  investment plus a cumulative 8% per year (not  compounded) on
         their investment  (reduced by  distributions  other than from Cash Flow
         from Operations),  subordinated incentive distributions equal to 15% of
         remaining Cash from Sales or Refinancings.

     3.  Provided the limited partners have received distributions equal to 100%
         of their  capital  contributions  plus a  cumulative  6% per year  (not
         compounded) on their investment  (reduced by  distributions  other than
         distributions from Cash Flow from Operations), brokerage commissions at
         the  lesser  of 3% of  the  sales  price  of a  property  or  50%  of a
         competitive commission.

         During  1999,  approximately  $561,000  was paid to PSI with respect to
items 1, 2, and 3 above. The Partnership owns interests in 32 properties  (which
exclude  the  properties  transferred  to PSBPLP in  January  1997);  30 of such
properties are held in a general  partnership  comprised of the  Partnership and
PSI.

         The Partnership and the Joint Venture have a Management  Agreement with
PSI pursuant to which the  Partnership and the Joint Venture pay PSI a fee of 6%
of the gross revenues of the mini-warehouse  spaces operated for the Partnership
and the Joint Venture.  During 1999, the  Partnership and the Joint Venture paid
fees of $756,000 to PSI pursuant to the Management Agreement.

         Through  1996,  the Joint  Venture's  business  parks were managed by a
predecessor of PSBPLP pursuant to a Management  Agreement which provides for the
payment  of a fee  by  the  Partnership  of 5% of  the  gross  revenues  of  the
commercial  space  operated for the Joint  Venture.  In January 1997,  the Joint
Venture  and  PSI and  other  related  partnerships  transferred  a total  of 35
business  parks to PSBPLP,  an operating  partnership  formed to own and operate
business  parks in which  PSI has a  significant  interest.  Included  among the
properties transferred were the Joint Venture's business parks in exchange for a
partnership  interest in PSBPLP.  The  general  partner of PSBPLP is PS Business
Parks, Inc., a REIT traded on the American Stock Exchange.

                         Report of Independent Auditors



The Partners
PS Partners VI, Ltd., a California Limited Partnership


We have audited the balance sheets of PS Partners VI, Ltd., a California Limited
Partnership,  as of December  31, 1999 and 1998 and the  related  statements  of
income,  partners'  equity,  and cash  flows for each of the three  years in the
period ended December 31, 1999. Our audits also included the financial statement
schedule  listed in the Index at Item  14(a).  These  financial  statements  and
schedule  are  the   responsibility   of  the  Partnership's   management.   Our
responsibility  is to  express  an opinion  on these  financial  statements  and
schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable  assurance about whether the financial  statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial  statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by  management,  as well as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement
presentation.  We believe  that our audits  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 PS Partners  VI,  Ltd.,  a
California  Limited  Partnership,  at  December  31,  1999  and  1998,  and  the
consolidated  results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended  December  31, 1999,  in  conformity  with  accounting
principles  generally accepted in the United States.  Also, in our opinion,  the
related financial statement  schedule,  when considered in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole,  presents fairly in all material respects
the information set forth therein.

                        a California Limited Partnership
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                December 31, 1999

1.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Partnership Matters
         ------------------------------------------------------------------

         Description of Partnership
         --------------------------

                  PS Partners VI, Ltd., a California  Limited  Partnership  (the
         "Partnership")  was formed with the  proceeds of an  interstate  public
         offering.  PSI  Associates  II, Inc.  ("PSA"),  an  affiliate of Public
         Storage Management, Inc., organized the Partnership along with B. Wayne
         Hughes ("Hughes"). In September 1993, Storage Equities, Inc., now known
         as Public Storage, Inc. ("PSI"), a California corporation, acquired the
         interest of PSA relating to its general partner capital contribution in
         the Partnership and was substituted as a co-general partner in place of
         PSA.

                  In 1995,  there was a series of mergers  among Public  Storage
         Management, Inc. (which was the Partnership's mini-warehouse operator),
         Public  Storage,  Inc.  and their  affiliates  (collectively,  "PSMI"),
         culminating in the November 16, 1995 merger (the "PSMI Merger") of PSMI
         into Storage Equities,  Inc. In the PSMI Merger, Storage Equities, Inc.
         was renamed Public Storage,  Inc. and it acquired  substantially all of
         PSMI's United States real estate  operations and became the operator of
         the mini-warehouse properties in which the Partnership has an interest.

                  The  Partnership  has  invested  in  existing   mini-warehouse
         storage facilities which offer  self-service  storage spaces for lease,
         usually on a  month-to-month  basis,  to the  general  public and, to a
         lesser  extent,  in  existing  business  park  facilities  which  offer
         industrial and office space for lease.

                  The Partnership has ownership  interests in 32 properties in 9
         states (collectively  referred to as the "Mini-Warehouse  Properties"),
         which exclude two  properties  transferred to PS Business  Parks,  L.P.
         ("PSBPLP") in January 1997. 30 of the  properties  are owned by SEI/PSP
         VI Joint Ventures (the "Joint Venture"),  a general partnership between
         the  Partnership  and PSI.  The  Partnership  is the  managing  general
         partner  of  the  Joint  Venture,   with  ownership  interests  in  the
         individual properties of the Joint Venture ranging from 50% to 76.2%.

                  As used hereinafter, the Joint Venture and PSBPLP are referred
         to as the "Real Estate Entities."

         Basis of Presentation
         ---------------------

                  The   financial   statements   include  the  accounts  of  the
         Partnership.  The accounts of the Joint Venture,  which the Partnership
         does not control,  are not  consolidated  with the  Partnership and the
         Partnership's  interest in the Joint  Venture is  accounted  for on the
         equity method.

                  The Partnership does not control the Joint Venture because PSI
         has  significant  control  rights with respect to the management of the
         properties,  including the right to compel the sale of each property in
         the Joint  Venture and the right to require the  Partnership  to submit
         operating budgets.

                  Under the terms of the general  partnership  agreement  of the
         Joint Venture all depreciation  and  amortization  with respect to each
         property  is  allocated  solely to the  Partnership  until the  limited
         partners recover their initial capital  contribution.  Thereafter,  all
         depreciation  and  amortization  is  allocated  solely  to PSI until it
         recovers its initial capital contribution.  All remaining  depreciation
         and  amortization is allocated to the Partnership and PSI in proportion
         to their ownership percentages.

         ------------------------------------------------------------------
         (Continued)
         -----------

                  Under the  terms of the  partnership  agreements,  PSI has the
         right to compel the sale of each  property in the general  partnerships
         at any time after seven years from the date of  acquisition at not less
         than its  independently  determined  fair  market  value  provided  the
         Partnership  receives  its  share of the net  proceeds  solely in cash.
         PSI's right to require the  Partnership  to sell all of the  properties
         owned jointly with the Partnership has been  exercisable in all periods
         presented.

                  Under the terms of the general  partnership  agreement  of the
         Joint  Venture,   for  property   acquisitions   in  which  PSI  issued
         convertible securities to the sellers for its interest,  PSI's right to
         receive  cash flow  distributions  for any year after the first year of
         operation are  subordinated to cash  distributions to PSP VI equal to a
         cumulative  annual  7% of its  cash  investment  (not  compounded).  In
         addition,  upon sale or  refinancing  of a  property  for more than its
         original   purchase   price,   distribution   of  proceeds  to  PSI  is
         subordinated  to  the  return  to  PSP VI of  the  amount  of its  cash
         investment and the 7% distribution described above.

         Depreciation and amortization
         -----------------------------

                  The Partnership and the Joint Venture depreciate the buildings
         and equipment on a straight-line  method over estimated useful lives of
         25 and 5 years, respectively.  Leasing commissions relating to business
         park properties are expensed when incurred.

         Revenue Recognition
         -------------------

                  Property rents are recognized as earned.

         Allocation of Net Income
         ------------------------

                  The  General  Partners'  share of net  income  consists  of an
         amount attributable to their 1% capital  contribution and an additional
         percentage  of cash flow (as defined,  see Note 4) which relates to the
         General  Partners'  share  of cash  distributions  as set  forth in the
         Partnership  Agreement.  All  remaining  net income is allocated to the
         limited partners.

         Per Unit Data
         -------------

                  Per unit data is based on the number of limited  partner units
         (150,000) outstanding during the periods presented.

         Cash Distributions
         ------------------

                  The Partnership Agreement provides for quarterly distributions
         of cash flow from  operations  (as  defined).  Cash  distributions  per
         limited partner unit were $33.30,  $23.80,  and $29.74 for 1999,  1998,
         and 1997, respectively.

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

                  For financial  statement purposes,  the Partnership  considers
         all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months
         or less to be cash equivalents.

1.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Partnership Matters
         ------------------------------------------------------------------
         (Continued)
         -----------

         Environmental Cost
         ------------------

                  Substantially  all of the real estate  facilities in which the
         Partnership has an interest were acquired prior to the time that it was
         customary  to  conduct   extensive   environmental   investigations  in
         connection with the property acquisitions. During the fourth quarter of
         1995,  an   independent   environmental   consulting   firm   completed
         environmental  assessments on the properties of the Partnership and the
         Joint Venture to evaluate the environmental condition of, and potential
         environmental liabilities of such properties.  Although there can be no
         assurance,   the   Partnership  is  not  aware  of  any   environmental
         contamination of the Mini-Warehouse Properties which individually or in
         the aggregate would be material to the Partnership's  overall business,
         financial condition, or results of operations.

         Segment Reporting
         -----------------

                  Effective  January 1, 1998, the  Partnership  adopted SFAS No.
         131,   "Disclosure   about   Segments  of  an  Enterprise  and  Related
         Information."  SFAS No. 131  established  standards  for the way public
         business  enterprises  report  information about operating  segments in
         annual financial  statements and requires that those enterprises report
         selected  information  about  operating  segments in interim  financial
         reports.   SFAS  No.  131  also   establishes   standards  for  related
         disclosures  about  products and services,  geographic  areas and major
         customers.  The Partnership only has one reportable  segment as defined
         within  SFAS No.  131,  therefore  the  adoption of SFAS No. 131 had no
         effect on the Partnership's disclosures.

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

                  The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
         accounting  principles generally accepted in the United States requires
         management to make  estimates and  assumptions  that affect the amounts
         reported in the financial  statements and  accompanying  notes.  Actual
         results could differ from those estimates.

         Derivatives
         -----------

                  In June 1998, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board issued
         Statement No. 133,  Accounting for Derivative  Instruments  and Hedging
         Activities,  which is required to be adopted in years  beginning  after
         June 15, 2000.  Management does not anticipate that the adoption of the
         new Statement will have significant effect on earnings or the financial
         position of the Partnership.

2.       Real Estate Facilities
         ----------------------

                  In 1995,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  issued
         Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards No. 121 ("Statement 121"),
         "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and for Long-Lived
         Assets to be Disposed of." Statement 121 requires  impairment losses to
         be recorded on long-lived  assets used in operations when indicators of
         impairment are present and the undiscounted  cash flows estimated to be
         generated  by those assets are less than the assets'  carrying  amount.
         Statement 121 also  addresses the method of accounting  for  long-lived
         assets  that are  expected  to be  disposed.  The  Partnership  adopted
         Statement 121 in 1996 and the adoption had no effect.

                                      F-8

2.       Real Estate Facilities (Continued)
         ----------------------------------

                  In January  1997,  the  Partnership  and PSI and other related
         partnerships  transferred  a total of 35 business  parks to PSBPLP,  an
         operating partnership formed to own and operate business parks in which
         PSI  has  a  significant   interest.   Included  among  the  properties
         transferred  were the Joint Venture's  business parks in exchange for a
         partnership  interest in PSBPLP.  The  general  partner of PSBPLP is PS
         Business Parks, Inc. ("PSBP").

3.       Investment in Real Estate Entities
         ----------------------------------

                 During  1999,  1998,  and  1997,  the  Partnership   recognized
         earnings from the Real Estate  Entities of  $2,887,000,  $2,847,000 and
         $2,500,000,  respectively,  and received  cash  distributions  totaling
         $5,040,000,  $5,006,000,  and  $3,957,000,  respectively  from the Real
         Estate Entities.

                 The accounting policies of the Real Estate Entities are similar
         to that of the  Partnership.  Summarized  combined  financial data with
         respect to the Real Estate Entities are as follows:

                                                        1999           1998
                                                    ------------    ------------
For the year ended December 31,
    Total revenues                                  $141,819,000    $103,067,000
    Minority interest in income                       16,110,000      11,208,000
    Net income                                        46,716,000      34,872,000

At December 31,
    Total assets, net of accumulated depreciation   $961,490,000    $769,096,000
    Total liabilities                                 59,579,000      67,738,000
    Total minority interest                          289,949,000     153,015,000
    Total equity                                     611,962,000     548,343,000

                  The  increase in the size of the combined  financial  position
         and operating  results,  respectively,  of the Real Estate Entities for
         the  year  ended   December   31,  1999  and  at  December   31,  1999,
         respectively,  as  compared  to prior  periods,  is the  result  of the
         additional properties acquired by PSBPLP during 1998 and 1999.

                 Financial  statements  of the Joint  Venture are filed with the
         Partnership's  Form 10-K for 1999, in Item 14. PS Business Parks,  Inc.
         is a registrant  with the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  and its
         filings can be accessed through the Securities and Exchange Commission.

4.       General Partners' Equity
         ------------------------

                  The General Partners have a 1% interest in the Partnership. In
         addition,   the  General   Partners   have  a  10%   interest  in  cash
         distributions  attributable to operations,  exclusive of  distributions
         attributable to sales and refinancing proceeds.

                  Proceeds  from  sales  and  refinancings  will be  distributed
         entirely to the limited  partners  until the limited  partners  recover
         their  investment plus a cumulative 8% annual return (not  compounded);
         thereafter,  the General  Partners  have a 15%  interest  in  remaining
         proceeds.

                                      F-9

5.       Related Party Transactions
         --------------------------

                  The  Partnership  has a management  agreement with PSI whereby
         PSI operates the Mini-Warehouse Properties for a fee equal to 6% of the
         facilities' monthly gross revenue (as defined).

                  In January 1997,  the Joint Venture  transferred  its business
         park  facilities  to PSBPLP in exchange for a  partnership  interest in
         PSBPLP. PSI has a significant economic interest in PSBPLP and PSBP.

6.       Leases
         ------

                  The   Partnership   has   invested   primarily   in   existing
         mini-warehouse  storage  facilities  which offer  self-service  storage
         spaces  for lease to the  general  public.  Leases  for such  space are
         usually on a month-to-month basis.

7.       Taxes Based on Income
         ---------------------

                  Taxes based on income are the responsibility of the individual
         partners and,  accordingly,  the Partnership's  financial statements do
         not reflect a provision for such taxes.

                  Unaudited  taxable net income was  $2,982,000,  $2,705,000 and
         $5,448,000  for the  years  ended  December  31,  1999,  1998 and 1997,
         respectively.  The difference between taxable income and book income is
         primarily related to timing differences in depreciation expense.

                         Report of Independent Auditors


The Partners
SEI/PSP VI Joint Ventures


We have  audited  the  balance  sheets of the  SEI/PSP VI Joint  Ventures  as of
December  31,  1999 and 1998 and the  related  statements  of income,  partners'
equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period  ended  December
31, 1999. Our audits also included the financial  statement  schedule  listed in
the  Index at Item 14 (a).  These  financial  statements  and  schedule  are the
responsibility  of the Joint  Ventures'  management.  Our  responsibility  is to
express an opinion  on these  financial  statements  and  schedule  based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable  assurance about whether the financial  statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial  statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by  management,  as well as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement
presentation.  We believe  that our audits  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 the SEI/PSP VI Joint Ventures
at December 31, 1999 and 1998,  and the results of its operations and cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our
opinion,  the related financial statement schedule,  when considered in relation
to the  basic  financial  statements  taken as a whole,  presents  fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                December 31, 1999


1.       Description of Partnership
         --------------------------

                  SEI/PSP VI Joint Ventures (the "Joint  Venture") was formed on
         December 31, 1990 in connection with the  consolidation  of 14 separate
         general  partnerships  between  Public  Storage  Inc.  ("PSI")  and  PS
         Partners  VI,  Ltd.  ("PSP  VI").   The  Joint  Venture,   through  its
         predecessor general partnerships,  invested in existing  mini-warehouse
         facilities which offer self-service  storage spaces for lease,  usually
         on a  month-to-month  basis,  to the  general  public  and, to a lesser
         extent, in existing business park facilities which offer industrial and
         office space for lease.

                  The Joint Venture owns 30 properties  (referred to hereinafter
         as the  "Mini-Warehouses"),  which excludes two  properties  which were
         transferred to PS Business Parks, L.P.  ("PSBPLP") in January 1997. PSP
         VI is the  managing  general  partner  of the Joint  Venture,  with its
         ownership interests in the properties of the Joint Venture ranging from
         50% to 76.2%.

2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Partnership Matters
         ------------------------------------------------------------------

         Basis of Presentation
         ---------------------

                  The  financial  statements  include the  accounts of the Joint
         Venture.

                  Under the terms of the general  partnership  agreement  of the
         Joint  Venture,   for  property   acquisitions   in  which  PSI  issued
         convertible securities to the sellers for its interest,  PSI's right to
         receive  cash flow  distributions  for any year after the first year of
         operation are  subordinated to cash  distributions to PSP VI equal to a
         cumulative  annual  7% of its  cash  investment  (not  compounded).  In
         addition,  upon sale or  refinancing  of a  property  for more than its
         original   purchase   price,   distribution   of  proceeds  to  PSI  is
         subordinated  to  the  return  to  PSP VI of  the  amount  of its  cash
         investment and the 7% distribution described above.

         Depreciation and Amortization
         -----------------------------

                  The Joint Venture depreciates the buildings and equipment on a
         straight-line  method over  estimated  useful  lives of 25 and 5 years,
         respectively.  Leasing commissions relating to business park properties
         are expensed when incurred.

         Revenue Recognition
         -------------------

                  Property rents are recognized as earned.

         Allocation of Net Income to PSP VI and PSI
         ------------------------------------------

                  Net income  prior to  depreciation  is allocated to PSP VI and
         PSI based upon their relative  ownership  interest in each property and
         the results of each property.

                  Under the terms of the general  partnership  agreement  of the
         Joint Venture all depreciation  and  amortization  with respect to each
         Joint  Venture  is  allocated  solely to PSP VI until it  recovers  its
         initial  capital   contribution.   Thereafter,   all  depreciation  and
         amortization  is allocated  solely to PSI until it recovers its initial
         capital  contribution.  All remaining  depreciation and amortization is
         allocated  to  PSP  VI  and  PSI  in  proportion  to  their   ownership
         percentages.

2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Partnership Matters
         ------------------------------------------------------------------
         (Continued)
         -----------

         Cash Distributions
         ------------------

                  The  general  partnership   agreement  of  the  Joint  Venture
         provides for regular  distributions  of cash flow from  operations  (as
         defined).

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

                  For financial statement purposes,  the Joint Venture considers
         all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months
         or less to be cash equivalents.

         Environmental Cost
         ------------------

                  Substantially  all of the real estate  facilities in which the
         Joint Venture has an interest  were acquired  prior to the time that it
         was  customary to conduct  extensive  environmental  investigations  in
         connection with the property acquisitions. During the fourth quarter of
         1995,  an   independent   environmental   consulting   firm   completed
         environmental assessments on the Joint Venture's properties to evaluate
         the environmental condition of, and potential environmental liabilities
         of such  properties.  Although  there  can be no  assurance,  the Joint
         Venture  is  not  aware  of  any  environmental  contamination  of  the
         Mini-Warehouses  which  individually  or  in  the  aggregate  would  be
         material to the Joint Venture's overall business,  financial condition,
         or results of operations.

         Segment Reporting
         -----------------

                  Effective  January 1, 1998, the Joint Venture adopted SFAS No.
         131,   "Disclosure   about   Segments  of  an  Enterprise  and  Related
         Information."  SFAS No. 131  established  standards  for the way public
         business  enterprises  report  information about operating  segments in
         annual financial  statements and requires that those enterprises report
         selected  information  about  operating  segments in interim  financial
         reports.   SFAS  No.  131  also   establishes   standards  for  related
         disclosures  about  products and services,  geographic  areas and major
         customers. The Joint Venture only has one reportable segment as defined
         within  SFAS No.  131,  therefore  the  adoption of SFAS No. 131 had no
         effect on the Joint Venture's disclosures.

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

                  The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
         accounting  principles generally accepted in the United States requires
         management to make  estimates and  assumptions  that affect the amounts
         reported in the financial  statements and  accompanying  notes.  Actual
         results could differ from those estimates.

         Derivatives
         -----------

                  In June 1998, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board issued
         Statement No. 133,  Accounting for Derivative  Instruments  and Hedging
         Activities,  which is required to be adopted in years  beginning  after
         June 15, 2000.  Management does not anticipate that the adoption of the
         new Statement will have significant effect on earnings or the financial
         position of the Partnership.

3.       Real Estate Facilities
         ----------------------

                  In 1995,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  issued
         Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards No. 121 ("Statement 121"),
         "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and for Long-Lived
         Assets to be Disposed of." Statement 121 requires  impairment losses to
         be recorded on long-lived  assets used in operations when indicators of
         impairment are present and the undiscounted  cash flows estimated to be
         generated  by those assets are less than the assets'  carrying  amount.
         Statement 121 also  addresses the method of accounting  for  long-lived
         assets that are  expected to be  disposed.  The Joint  Venture  adopted
         Statement 121 in 1996 and the adoption had no effect.

                  In January 1997, the Joint Venture,  PSI and other  affiliated
         partnerships of PSI transferred a total of 35 business parks to PSBPLP,
         an operating  partnership  formed to own and operate  business parks in
         which PSI has a significant  interest.  Included  among the  properties
         transferred  were the Joint Venture's  business parks in exchange for a
         partnership  interest in PSBPLP.  The  general  partner of PSBPLP is PS
         Business Parks, Inc. ("PSBP").

4.       Investment in real estate entity
         --------------------------------

                  In  1999,  1998,  and  1997,  the  Joint  Venture   recognized
         $1,183,000,  $1,047,000,  and  $734,000,  respectively,  in  equity  in
         earnings of real estate  entities  with  respect to the  investment  in
         PSBPLP, described in Note 3 above.

                  The  accounting  policies of PSBPLP are similar to that of the
         Joint  Venture.  Summarized  combined  financial  data with  respect to

5.       Related Party Transactions
         -------------------------

                  The Joint Venture has a management  agreement with PSI whereby
         PSI  operates  the  Mini-Warehouses  for a  fee  equal  to  6%  of  the
         facilities' monthly gross revenue (as defined).

                  In January 1997,  the Joint Venture  transferred  its business
         park  facilities  to PSBPLP in exchange for a  partnership  interest in
         PSBPLP. PSI has a significant economic interest in PSBPLP and PSBP.

6.       Leases
         ------

                  The  Joint   Venture  has   invested   primarily  in  existing
         mini-warehouse  storage  facilities  which offer  self-service  storage
         spaces  for lease to the  general  public.  Leases  for such  space are
         usually on a month-to-month basis.

7.       Taxes Based on Income
         ---------------------

                  Taxes based on income are the responsibility of PSP VI and PSI
         and,  accordingly,  the Joint  Venture's  financial  statements  do not
         reflect a provision for such taxes.

         Unaudited taxable net income was $4,411,000,  $4,620,000 and $5,283,000
         for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The
         difference  between taxable income and book income is primarily related
         to timing differences in depreciation expense.
