NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2000
(Unaudited)
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared
by the Fund in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commis-
sion. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.
1. EQUIPMENT LEASED
Equipment on lease consists in part of equipment under operating leases.
The lessees have agreements with the manufacturer to provide maintenance
for the leased equipment. The Fund's operating leases are for initial
lease terms of 34 to 60 months. Generally, operating leases will not re-
cover all of the undepreciated cost and related expenses of its rental
equipment during the initial lease terms and the Fund is prepared to re-
market the equipment. Fund policy is to review quarterly the expected
economic life of its rental equipment in order to determine the recover-
ability of its undepreciated cost. Recent and anticipated technological
developments affecting the equipment and competitive factors in the market-
place are considered among other things, as part of this review. In accor-
dance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, the Fund writes down
its rental equipment to its estimated net realizable value when the amounts
are reasonably estimated and only recognizes gains upon actual sale of its
rental equipment. As a result, $16,000 and $171,720 was charged to write-
down of equipment to net realizable value for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Any future losses are dependent
upon unanticipated technological developments affecting the types of equip-
ment in the portfolio in subsequent years.
The Fund also has equipment leased under the direct financing method in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13. This
method provides for recognition of income (the excess of the aggregate
future rentals and estimated additional amounts recoverable upon expira-
tion of the lease over the related equipment cost) over the life of the
lease using the interest method. The Fund's direct financing leases are
for initial lease terms ranging from 29 to 59 months.
Unguaranteed residuals for direct financing leases represent the estimated
amounts recoverable at lease termination from lease extensions or disposi-
tion of the equipment. The Fund reviews these residual values quarterly.
If the equipment's fair market value is below the estimated residual value,
an adjustment is made.

======== ==========
Subsequent to September 30, 2000, the Fund invested in approximately
$1,134,000 of direct financing leases with initial lease terms of 2 to 40
months. The future approximate minimum rentals to be received on these
noncancellable direct financing leases are $146,000 in 2000, $457,000 in
2001, $442,000 in 2002, $231,000 in 2003 and $17,500 in 2004.
2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The General Partner receives 5% or 2% of rental payments from equipment
under operating leases and full pay-out leases, respectively, for adminis-
trative and management services performed on behalf of the Fund. Full pay-
out leases are noncancellable leases for which rental payments during the
initial term are at least sufficient to recover the purchase price of the
equipment, including acquisition fees. This management fee is paid monthly
only if and when the Limited Partners have received distributions for the
period from January 1, 1990 through the end of the most recent quarter

equal to a return for such period at a rate of 12% per year on the
aggregate amount paid for their units.
The General Partner may also receive up to 3% of the proceeds from the
sale of the Fund's equipment for services and activities to be performed
in connection with the disposition of equipment. The payment of this sales
fee is deferred until the Limited Partners have received cash distributions
equal to the purchase price of their units plus a 12% cumulative compounded
priority return. Based on current estimates, it is not expected that the
Fund will be required to pay this sales fee to the General Partner.
Additionally, the General Partner and its parent company are reimbursed by
the Fund for certain costs of services and materials used by or for the
Fund except those items covered by the above-mentioned fees. Following is
a summary of fees and costs of services and materials charged by the
General Partner or its parent company during the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999:

The amount due from related parties at December 31, 1999 represents monies
due the Fund from the General Partner and/or other affiliated funds for
rentals and sales proceeds collected and not yet remitted to the Fund.
Amounts due to related parties at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999
represent monies due to the General Partner for the fees and costs men-
tioned above, as well as, rentals and sales proceeds collected by the Fund
on behalf of other affiliated funds.
3. CASH DISTRIBUTION
The General Partner declared and paid three cash distributions of $35,000
each subsequent to September 30, 2000 for each of the months ended July 31,
August 31 and September 30, 2000 for an aggregate of $105,000 to all
admitted partners as of July 31, August 31 and September 30, 2000.

Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Fidelity Leasing Income Fund VI, L.P. had revenues of $384,915 and $460,673
for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and
$1,067,599 and $1,362,710 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and
1999, respectively. Rental income from the leasing of equipment accounted
for 47% and 49% of total revenues for the third quarter of 2000 and 1999,
respectively and 53% and 56% of total revenues for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The decrease in total revenues
in 2000 was partially attributable to the decrease in rental income. During
the nine months ended September 30, 2000, rental income decreased by approxi-
mately $191,000 because of equipment that came off lease or equipment that
terminated and was sold. Additionally, the Fund recognized a net gain on sale
of equipment of $49,645 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared
to $218,955 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 which also accounted
for the overall decrease in revenues in 2000. Furthermore, the interest income
earned by the Fund on the short-term investment of cash decreased in 2000
which contributed to the decrease in total revenues during the nine months
ended September 30, 2000, as well. The Fund had larger cash balances avail-
able for investment during 1999 compared to 2000. The overall decrease in
revenues, however, was partially mitigated by the increase in earned income
on direct financing leases. The Fund invested in direct financing leases
during late 1999 and the second quarter of 2000 causing earned income on
direct financing leases to increase from $222,000 during the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 to $354,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2000.
Expenses were $236,339 and $335,099 for the three months ended Septem-
ber 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and $742,759 and $1,112,898 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Depreciation expense
comprised 55% of total expenses for the third quarter of both 2000 and 1999
and 63% and 53% of total expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
and 1999, respectively. The decrease in expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 was partially related to the decrease in depreciation
expense resulting from equipment that came off lease or terminated and was
sold since September 1999. Additionally, the decrease in write-down of
equipment to net realizable value contributed to the overall decrease in
expenses in 2000. Based upon the quarterly review of the recoverability of
the undepreciated cost of rental equipment, $16,000 was charged to write-down
of equipment to net realizable value during the nine months ended September 30,
2000 compared to $171,720 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. Any
future losses are dependent upon unanticipated technological developments
affecting the types of equipment in the portfolio in subsequent years.
Furthermore, general and administrative expense and general and administrative
expense to related party decreased in 2000 which also accounted for the
overall decrease in expenses in the current year. General and administrative
expense decreased during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to
the same period in 1999 because of a decrease in expenses incurred to re-

furbish equipment as it comes off lease. General and administrative expense
to related party decreased in 2000 compared to 1999 resulting from a decrease
in the amount of expenses charged by the General Partner or its parent company
for services and materials provided to the Fund.
The Fund's net income was $148,576 and $125,574 for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and $324,840 and $249,812 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The earnings per
equivalent limited partnership unit, after earnings allocated to the General
Partner, were $4.96 and $4.22 based on a weighted average number of equivalent
limited partnership units outstanding of 29,691 and 29,433 for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The earnings per equivalent
limited partnership unit, after earnings allocated to the General Partner, were
$10.85 and $8.39 based on a weighted average number of equivalent limited
partnership units outstanding of 29,649 and 29,475 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
The Fund generated cash from operations of $241,755 and $270,498, for the
purpose of determining cash available for distribution, during the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Fund paid three cash
distributions of $35,000 each subsequent to September 30, 2000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2000. The Fund paid three cash distributions of
$25,000 each subsequent to September 30, 1999 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
the Fund generated $756,544 and $797,252 of cash from operations, for the
purpose of determining cash available for distribution. The General Partner
declared cash distributions totaling $285,000 and $225,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Fund paid three cash
distributions of $25,000 each and three cash distributions of $35,000 each
during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and three cash distributions
of $35,000 each subsequent to September 30, 2000. The Fund paid six cash
distributions of $25,000 each during the nine months ended September 30, 1999
and three cash distributions of $25,000 each subsequent to September 30, 1999.
For financial statement purposes, the Fund records cash distributions to
partners on a cash basis in the period in which they are paid.
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Fund continues the process of dissolution during 2000. As provided in
the Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, the assets of the Fund shall be
liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining their fair value.
During this time, the Fund will continue to look for opportunities to purchase
equipment under operating leases or invest in direct financing leases with

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION (Continued)
cash available from operations which was not distributed to partners in
previous periods. The Fund invested $1,551,816 in direct financing leases
during the first nine months of 2000.
Subsequent to September 30, 2000, the Fund invested in approximately
$1,134,000 of direct financing leases with initial lease terms of 2 to 40
months.
The cash position of the Fund is reviewed daily and cash is invested on a
short-term basis.
The Fund's cash from operations is expected to continue to be adequate to
cover all operating expenses and contingencies during the next twelve month
period.
