NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1 INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The summarized financial information contained herein is unaudited;
however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only
of recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of such
financial information have been included. The accompanying financial
statements, footnotes and discussions should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements, related footnotes and discussions
contained in the National Lease Income Fund 6 L.P. (the "Partnership")
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996. The
results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Leases
The Partnership accounts for all of its leases in accordance with the
operating and financing methods. For operating leases, rental revenue
is recognized on a straight-line basis and expenses (including
depreciation) are charged to operations as incurred.
For financing leases, unearned income is recognized as revenue over the
respective lease term so as to produce a constant rate of return on the
net investment.
For the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, rental revenue earned
on a month-to-month basis comprised approximately 1% and 3%,
respectively, of total rental revenue recognized.
Leased equipment and equipment held for lease or sale
The cost of leased equipment and equipment held for lease or sale
represents the initial cost of the equipment to the Partnership plus
miscellaneous acquisition and closing costs, and is carried at the
lower of depreciated cost or net realizable value.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of such assets (five years for equipment for
management information systems and 13 to 18 years for aircraft and
aircraft-related equipment). The Partnership capitalizes major
additions to its aircraft and depreciates such capital improvements
over the remaining estimated useful life of such aircraft.
When equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and
accumulated depreciation (and any related allowance for equipment
impairment) are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss on such
sale or disposal is reflected in operations. Normal maintenance and
repairs are charged to operations as incurred. The Partnership provides
allowances for equipment impairment based upon a quarterly review of
all equipment in its portfolio, when management believes that, based
upon market analysis, appraisal reports and leases currently in place
with respect to specific equipment, the investment in such equipment
may not be recoverable.
<PAGE>
NATIONAL LEASE INCOME FUND 6 L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
The allowance is inherently subjective and is based upon management's
best estimate of current conditions and assumptions about expected
future conditions. The Partnership may provide for additional losses in
subsequent periods and such losses could be material.
Deferred costs
Deferred costs represent the payments made by the Partnership, based
upon the terms of a certain lease, for maintenance which enhanced the
marketability with respect to the return of certain aircraft leased to
Alaska Airlines, Inc. ("Alaska"). Deferred costs are amortized over the
terms of the remarketed lease.
Note receivable
Note receivable represents financing provided by the Partnership to a
lessee of certain aircraft for modifications made to such aircraft.
Such note is being repaid at a rate of 9.31% per annum.
Recently issued accounting pronouncement
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" in February, 1997.
This pronouncement establishes standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share, and is effective for the Partnership's 1997
year-end financial statements. The Partnership's management has
determined that this standard will have no impact on the Partnership's
computation or presentation of net income per unit of limited
partnership interest.
3 CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
The corporate general partner of the Partnership, ALI Capital Corp.
(the "Corporate General Partner"), the managing general partner of the
Partnership, ALI Equipment Management Corp. ("Equipment Management")
and Integrated Resources Equipment Group, Inc. ("IREG") are wholly
owned subsidiaries of Presidio Capital Corp. ("Presidio"). Z Square G
Partners II was the associate general partner of the Partnership
through February 27, 1995. On February 28, 1995, Presidio Boram Corp.,
a subsidiary of Presidio, became the associate general partner. Other
limited partnerships and similar investment programs have been formed
by Equipment Management or its affiliates to acquire equipment and,
accordingly, conflicts of interest may arise between the Partnership
and such other limited partnerships. Affiliates of Equipment Management
have also engaged in business related to the management of equipment
and the sale of various types of equipment and may transact business
with the Partnership.
<PAGE>
NATIONAL LEASE INCOME FUND 6 L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
3 CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (continued)
Subject to the rights of the Limited Partners under the Limited
Partnership Agreement, Presidio will control the Partnership through
its direct or indirect ownership of all of the shares of Equipment
Management, the Corporate General Partner and, as of February 28, 1995,
the associate general partner. Presidio is managed by Presidio
Management Company, LLC ("Presidio Management"), a company controlled
by a director of Presidio. Presidio is also party to an administrative
services agreement with Wexford Management LLC ("Wexford") pursuant to
which Wexford is responsible for the day-to-day management of Presidio
and, among other things, has authority to designate directors of
Equipment Management, the Corporate General Partner and the associate
general partner. During the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
reimbursable expenses due to Wexford from the Partnership amounted to
$13,113 and $17,891, respectively.
Presidio is a liquidating company. Although Presidio has no immediate
plans to do so, it will ultimately seek to dispose of the interests it
acquired from Integrated Resources, Inc. through liquidation; however,
there can be no assurance of the timing of such transaction or the
effect it may have on the Partnership.
The Partnership has a management agreement with IREG, pursuant to which
IREG receives 5% of annual gross rental revenues on operating leases;
2% of annual gross rental revenues on full payout leases which contain
net lease provisions; and 1% of annual gross rental revenues if
services are performed by third parties under the active supervision of
Equipment Management, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement.
The Partnership incurred equipment management fees of $72,130 and
$75,553 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
During the operating and liquidating stage of the Partnership, IREG is
entitled to a partnership management fee equal to 4% of distributable
cash from operations as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement,
subject to increase after the limited partners have received certain
specified minimum returns on their investment. The Partnership incurred
partnership management fees of $29,000 and $53,941 for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
The general partners are entitled to 1% of distributable cash from
operations, cash from sales or financing and cash from the equipment
reserve account and, in general, an allocation of 1% of taxable net
income or loss of the Partnership.
During the operating and liquidating stage of the Partnership, IREG may
be entitled to receive certain other fees which are subordinated to the
receipt by the limited partners of their original invested capital and
certain specified minimum returns on their investment.
<PAGE>
NATIONAL LEASE INCOME FUND 6 L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
3 CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (continued)
Upon the ultimate liquidation of the Partnership, the general partners
may be required to remit to the Partnership certain payments
representing capital account deficit restoration based upon a formula
provided within the Limited Partnership Agreement. Such restoration
amount may be less than the recorded general partners' deficit, which
could result in distributions to the limited partners of less than
recorded equity.
In April 1995, Equipment Management and certain affiliates entered into
an agreement with Fieldstone Private Capital Group, L.P. ("Fieldstone")
pursuant to which Fieldstone performs certain management and
administrative services relating to the Partnership as well as certain
other partnerships in which Equipment Management serves as general
partner. Substantially all costs associated with the retention of
Fieldstone, other than legal fees, are paid by Equipment Management.
4 PARTNER'S EQUITY
The General Partners hold a 1% equity interest in the Partnership. At
the inception of the Partnership, the General Partners' equity account
was credited with only the actual capital contributed in cash, $9,950.
The Partnership's management determined that this accounting does not
appropriately reflect the limited partners' and the General Partners'
relative participations in the Partnership's net assets, since it does
not reflect the General Partners' 1% equity interest in the
Partnership. Thus, the Partnership has restated its financial
statements to reallocate $1,500,025 (1% of the gross proceeds raised at
the Partnership's formation) of the partners' equity to the General
Partners' equity account. This reallocation was made as of the
inception of the Partnership and all periods presented in the financial
statements have been restated to reflect the reallocation. The
reallocation has no impact on the Partnership's financial position,
results of operations, cash flows, distributions to partners, or the
partners' tax basis capital accounts.
5 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Continental Micronesia, Inc.
On March 31, 1993, the Partnership leased two Boeing 727-227 Advanced
aircraft to Continental Airlines, Inc. ("Continental") for a term of
approximately 69 months to be used by Continental's Air Micronesia
operation (the "Air Mike Leases"). Each Air Mike Lease provides for a
monthly base rent of $69,250, subject to adjustments for rent credits
relating to initial modifications (the "Initial Modifications") which
include Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems, windshear detection and
upgraded avionics, aggregating approximately $1,308,000 for both
aircraft. Such modifications were funded by Continental and are being
repaid by the Partnership through the application of rent credits such
<PAGE>

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
5 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (continued)
Continental Micronesia, Inc. (continued)
that Continental will recoup the aggregate cost of the Initial
Modifications over a 36-month period with interest at 9.31% per annum.
The remaining balance of rent credits to be applied by Continental
towards such modifications was $100,000 as of June 30, 1997 and
December 31, 1996.
In addition, Continental has made certain other modifications to such
aircraft. The Partnership has agreed to provide financing for the rent
credits ("Lessor Financing Credits") against the base rental payments
due under the Air Mike Leases. The lessee is currently repaying Lessor
Financing Credits through monthly installments which are being
amortized at the rate of 9.31% per annum over 36 months. Through June
30, 1997, the Partnership had provided all the required financing
aggregating approximately $1,443,000. Such amount, net of amounts
repaid, is reflected on the accompanying balance sheets as Note
Receivable at June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996. The net carrying
value of both aircraft aggregated approximately $7,590,000 and
$7,963,000 (net of allowances for equipment impairment aggregating
approximately $10,000,000 provided in prior periods) at June 30, 1997
and December 31, 1996 , respectively.
In April 1993, Continental transferred all of its rights and
obligations under the Air Mike Leases to Air Micronesia, a stand-alone
air carrier affiliated with Continental.
<PAGE>
ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The General Partners hold a 1% equity interest in the Partnership. At the
inception of the Partnership, the General Partners' equity account was credited
with only the actual capital contributed in cash, $9,950. The Partnership's
management determined that this accounting does not appropriately reflect the
limited partners' and the General Partners' relative participations in the
Partnership's net assets, since it does not reflect the General Partners' 1%
equity interest in the Partnership. Thus, the Partnership has restated its
financial statements to reallocate $1,500,025 (1% of the gross proceeds raised
at the Partnership's formation) of the partners' equity to the General Partners'
equity account. This reallocation was made as of the inception of the
Partnership and all periods presented in the financial statements have been
restated to reflect the reallocation. The reallocation has no impact on the
Partnership's financial position, results of operations, cash flows,
distributions to partners, or the partners' tax basis capital accounts.
The Partnership did not declare a cash distribution for the quarter ended June
30, 1997. As of June 30, 1997, the Partnership had operating reserves of
approximately $2,307,000 which was comprised of undistributed cash from
operations and sales, aggregating approximately $807,000, as well as the general
working capital reserve of $1,500,000.
Quarterly cash from operations has reached minimal levels and the costs
associated with making quarterly cash distributions remains fixed. The managing
general partner of the Partnership has decided to discontinue quarterly cash
distributions and instead make periodic cash distributions based upon the
accumulation of cash in the Partnership.
It is the Partnership's intention to maintain reserves sufficient to support the
Partnership's future obligations. The Partnership may, in the future, use
certain of its reserves to upgrade its leased equipment in order to enhance its
value.
The leasing arrangements entered into by the Partnership with respect to its
equipment generally provided for fixed or minimum rentals, and as such, provide
reasonable assurance that all of the Partnership's operating needs, such as
administrative costs and management fees, will be met in the foreseeable future.
Although expense levels have been reduced, most of the Partnership's future
administrative expenses (i.e., accounting and investor services including
printing) are fixed and will not decrease significantly during the Partnership's
future operating period. Other expenses such as insurance and fees to affiliate
will decline during such period.
Set forth below is a description of various transactions which have impacted the
liquidity of the Partnership during 1997 and 1996:
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
(i) On March 31, 1993, the Partnership leased two Boeing 727-227 Advanced
aircraft to Continental Airlines, Inc. ("Continental") for a term of
approximately 69 months to be used by Continental's Air Micronesia
operation (the "Air Mike Leases").
Such aircraft had been originally leased to Alaska Airlines, Inc.
("Alaska") through August 14, 1992. In conjunction with the return of
such aircraft, it was determined that certain physical attributes of
the aircraft exceeded the related minimum return conditions provided
for in the leases. As a result, the Partnership paid Alaska
approximately $647,000 to reflect the value associated with such
attributes. Such amount has been reflected on the balance sheets on a
gross basis, net of amortization, at June 30, 1997 and December 31,
1996, as Deferred Costs and will be amortized over the term of the
lease renewal with Continental.
Each Air Mike Lease provides for a monthly base rent of $69,250,
subject to adjustments for rental credits relating to initial
modifications (the "Initial Modifications") which include Traffic
Collision Avoidance Systems, windshear detection and upgraded avionics,
aggregating approximately $1,308,000 for both aircraft. Such
modifications were funded by Continental and are being repaid by the
Partnership through the application of rental credits such that
Continental will recoup the aggregate cost of the Initial Modifications
over a 36-month period with interest at 9.31% per annum. As of June 30,
1997, the remaining balance of credit to be applied by Continental
towards such modifications costs was $100,000 and was included on the
balance sheets as Deferred Aircraft Upgrade Payable.
Further, Continental has made certain other modifications to the
aircraft for which the Partnership has agreed to provide financing
through credits ("Lessor Financing Credits") against base rental
payments due under the Air Mike Leases. The lessee will then repay any
Lessor Financing Credits through monthly payments which will be
amortized at the rate of 9.31% per annum over 36 months. Through June
30, 1997, the Partnership had provided financing aggregating
approximately $1,443,000. Such amount, net of amounts repaid, was
reflected on the balance sheet at June 30, 1997 as Note Receivable. At
June 30, 1997, the net carrying value of both aircraft aggregated
approximately $7,590,000 (net of allowances for equipment impairment
aggregating approximately $10,000,000 provided in prior periods).
(ii) On November 30, 1994, the leases with Southwest Airlines, Co.
("Southwest") of two Boeing 737-200 aircraft (the "Southwest Aircraft")
were scheduled to expire in accordance with their original terms. The
associated nonrecourse debt was repaid upon the receipt of the final
rental installment for the initial lease term. Southwest and the
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
(ii) (continued)
Partnership agreed to extend Southwest's leases for one additional year
for a monthly rent of approximately 28% of the original lease rate. On
November 30, 1995, the extensions with Southwest were scheduled to
expire in accordance with their terms, and Southwest and the
Partnership agreed to extend the leases for two additional years at
125% of the then current lease rate. At June 30, 1997, the net carrying
value of the Southwest Aircraft aggregated approximately $2,814,000
(net of allowances for equipment impairment aggregating $10,400,000
previously provided).
As of June 30, 1997, the Partnership remained the owner of four aircraft and
related engines as well as two additional aircraft engines, which in the
aggregate represented substantially all of its remaining equipment, on an
original cost basis. Such foregoing aircraft and engines had an original cost of
approximately $56,820,000 (net carrying value of approximately $10,403,000). All
associated nonrecourse debt related to the aircraft has been repaid. At June 30,
1997, the Partnership remained the owner of equipment with an original cost of
approximately $57,013,000 of which approximately $4,376,000 is off-lease and
approximately $194,000 is leased on a month-to-month basis (both on an original
cost basis).
On December 5, 1997, the leases of the Southwest Aircraft are scheduled to
expire in accordance with their terms at which time Southwest will return the
Southwest Aircraft to the Partnership. The Partnership is currently
investigating remarketing opportunities for the Southwest Aircraft. There can be
no assurance that the Partnership will be successful with respect to its
remarketing activities. The Partnership will continue with its efforts to
maximize the value of its remaining equipment portfolio. The Partnership's
anticipated cash from operations after deducting operating expenses for the
remainder of 1997, based on firm term leases in place, is not sufficient to
maintain previous distribution levels. Distribution levels will fluctuate based
upon remarketing success of the Partnership's equipment including any proceeds
generated by the sale of significant assets (such as aircraft) and requirements
for operating reserves, if any.
The substantial costs required to maintain and bring used aircraft into
compliance with FAA noise and maintenance requirements are the primary factors
which have adversely affected the narrow body aircraft market. Additionally,
there is competition from newer and more fuel efficient aircraft which comply
with the FAA noise requirements. The Partnership also believes that as a result
of the factors listed above there has been a significant decline in the re-sale
value of narrow-body aircraft.
As the Partnership's aircraft come off-lease, the Partnership may need to use a
portion of its operating reserves and/or its cash flow, which would otherwise be
available for distribution, to upgrade or enhance these aircraft if the
Partnership determines that such expenditures are in its best interest in order
to maximize the remarketing value. The Partnership is currently evaluating
strategies, including potential engine upgrades to conform to regulations
covering maintenance and upgrading of aging aircraft. The Partnership's ability
to make distributions may be impacted by its obligation to pay such costs.
At the present time, the level of fees payable to IREG for services rendered to
the Partnership and other affiliated equipment leasing partnerships is
declining. The effect of this situation cannot be determined at this point. The
management agreements between the Partnership and IREG may be terminated by
either party to such agreements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
In April 1995, the Managing General Partner and certain affiliates entered into
an agreement with Fieldstone pursuant to which Fieldstone performs certain
management and administrative services relating to the Partnership as well as
certain other partnerships in which the Managing General Partner serves as
general partner. Substantially all costs associated with the retention of
Fieldstone, other than legal fees, are paid by the Managing General Partner.
On February 28, 1995, Presidio Boram Corp., a subsidiary of Presidio, became the
Associate General Partner, upon the withdrawal of Z Square G Partners II, the
former Associate General Partner.
Inflation and changing prices have not had any material effect on the
Partnership's revenues since its inception nor does the Partnership anticipate
any material effect on its business from these factors.
Results of Operations
Net income increased for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997 as
compared to the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996, as the reduction in
revenue was more than offset by the overall reduction in expenses. Additionally,
there were no dispositions of equipment during the six months ended June 30,
1997, as compared to dispositions that generated losses in the corresponding
period of the prior year.
Revenues decreased overall for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997
compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year. Rental income decreased
due to the expiration of certain leases in accordance with the original terms of
such leases subsequent to the prior year's periods.
Interest income on finance leases was eliminated due to expiration of all leases
in accordance with the original lease terms and sale of equipment subsequent to
the prior year's periods.
Expenses decreased overall for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997 as
compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year as follows:
Depreciation expense decreased due to the elimination of depreciation expense
resulting from the disposition or sale of certain equipment during or subsequent
to the prior year's period, as well as to the fact that certain equipment was
fully depreciated during or prior to the current year's period. There was no
provision for equipment impairment recorded in the current six month period as
compared to an impairment of $50,000 in the prior year's six month period. There
were no dispositions of equipment in the current six-month period as compared to
a net loss of approximately $55,000 on the disposition of equipment in the prior
year's six-month period;
Fees to affiliates decreased due to the decrease in partnership management fees
which are based on distributions to partners.
Interest expense was eliminated due to the repayment of the principal balance on
Air Mike rent credits subsequent to the prior year's period;.
<PAGE>
Results of Operations (continued)
General and administrative expenses increased for the quarter but decreased for
the current six-month period due to the increase in legal fees for the quarter
ended June 30, 1997.
This general decrease in expenses was offset slightly by an increase in
operating expenses due to an increase in administrative fees relating to the Air
Mike Leases.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 5 - OTHER INFORMATION
On July 25, 1997, Wexford, the administrator for Presidio, the parent company of
ALI Equipment Management Corp., ALI Capital Corp. and Presidio Boram Corp., the
Managing, Corporate and Associate General Partners, respectively, of the
Partnership and Integrated Resources Equipment Group, Inc., received notice from
Presidio Holding Company, LLC, which stated that it was the holder of 63% of the
outstanding Class A common shares of Presidio, that it was seeking to remove the
three current Class A directors and replacing them with Edward Scheetz, David
Hamamoto and David King effective as of 12:00 p.m. on September 2, 1997. There
exists substantial doubt as to the effectiveness of such notice. On August 15,
1997, Presidio applied to the Judge of the High Court in the British Virgin
Islands for a declaration that the written resolution of Presidio Holding LLC,
dated July 25, 1997 was invalid and of no effect insofar as it purports to be a
written resolution of the Class A Members of Presidio.
As of August 18, 1997, there have be no changes in the composition of the
officers and directors of the general partners. In addition, the administrative
services agreement with Wexford remains in effect and is scheduled to terminate
in November 1997.
