                          Notes to Financial Statements

                                   (unaudited)

1.   Basis of Presentation

     The financial  statements of ICON Cash Flow Partners,  L.P.,  Series C (the
"Partnership")  have been prepared  pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities  and  Exchange   Commission  (the  "SEC")  and,  in  the  opinion  of
management,  include  all  adjustments  (consisting  only  of  normal  recurring
accruals)  necessary  for a fair  statement  of income  for each  period  shown.
Certain  information  and footnote  disclosures  normally  included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles
have been  condensed  or  omitted  pursuant  to such SEC rules and  regulations.
Management  believes  that  the  disclosures  made  are  adequate  to  make  the
information  represented not misleading.  The results for the interim period are
not  necessarily  indicative of the results for the full year.  These  financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
included in the Partnership's 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

2.   Amendments to Partnership Agreement

     The Partnership's  original  reinvestment  period was to expire on June 19,
1996, five years after the final closing date. The General Partner distributed a
definitive  consent statement to the limited partners to solicit approval of two
amendments to the Partnership  agreement.  A majority of the limited partnership
units  outstanding  responded  affirmatively  and the  amendments  were  adopted
accordingly.  These amendments include: (1) extending the reinvestment period to
January  19, 2002 and  likewise  delaying  the start and end of the  liquidation
period,  and (2)  eliminating  the  Partnership's  obligation to pay the General
Partner  $529,125  of the  $634,125  accrued  and unpaid  management  fees as of
December  31, 1997 and all  additional  management  fees which  would  otherwise
accrue. The remaining $105,000 of unpaid management fees was paid to the General
Partner and then remitted back to the  Partnership  in the form of an additional
capital contribution by the General Partner in 1999.

3.   Related Party Transactions

     As a result of the  approval  of the  amendments  discussed  in Note 2, the
General  Partner did not accrue any  management  fees for the nine months  ended
September  30, 2000 and 1999.  The  Partnership  paid or accrued  administrative
expense  reimbursements  of $6,056  and  $13,362  during the nine  months  ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, which were charged to operations.

     In  December  1998 the  Partnership  and three  affiliates,  ICON Cash Flow
Partners  L.P.  Six ("L.P.  Six"),  ICON Cash Flow  Partners  L.P.  Seven ("L.P.
Seven")  and ICON Income  Fund Eight A L.P.  ("Eight  A") formed  ICON  Boardman
Funding  LLC ("ICON  BF"),  for the purpose of  acquiring a lease with  Portland
General Electric.  (See Note 4 for additional  information relating to the joint
venture.)

4.   Investments in Joint Venture

     The  Partnership  Agreement  allows  the  Partnership  to  invest  in joint
ventures  with other  limited  partnerships  sponsored  by the  General  Partner
provided that the  investment  objectives of the joint  ventures are  consistent
with that of the Partnership.

     In December 1998 the Partnership and three affiliates, L.P. Six, L.P. Seven
and Eight A formed ICON BF, for the purpose of  acquiring a lease with  Portland
General Electric.  The purchase price totaled  $27,421,810,  and was funded with
cash and non-recourse debt assumed in the purchase price. The Partnership,  L.P.
Six,  L.P.  Seven and  Eight A  received  a .5%,  .5%,  .5% and 98.5%  interest,
respectively,  in ICON BF. The Partnership's original investment was recorded at
cost  of  $56,960  and  is  adjusted  by  its  share  of  earnings,  losses  and
distributions,  thereafter.  Simultaneously with the acquisition of the Portland
General Electric lease by ICON BF, a portion of the rent receivable in excess of
the senior debt payments was acquired by L.P. Six from ICON BF for $3,801,108.

     Information  as to the  financial  position of ICON BF as of September  30,
2000 is summarized below:

                               September 30, 2000

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

     The  Partnership's  portfolio  consisted of net  investments in financings,
finance leases and investment in joint venture  representing 65%, 8%, and 27% of
total  investments at September 30, 2000  respectively,  and 58%, 35%, and 7% of
total investments at September 30, 1999, respectively.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 and 1999

       Revenues  for the three months ended  September  30, 2000 were $6,313,  a
decrease of $35,503 from 1999.  The decrease was due  primarily to a decrease in
finance income of $13,406, and a loss on sale of equipment of $5,769 compared to
a gain of $6,771 in the 1999  quarter.  The loss on sales of  equipment  in 2000
resulted from equipment being sold where the remaining book value exceeded sales
proceeds.  The  decrease in finance  income was due to a decrease in the average
size of the finance lease portfolio from 1999 to 2000.

       Expenses for the three months ended  September 30, 2000 were ($3,268),  a
decrease of $29,528 from 1999. The decrease  resulted  primarily from a reversal
in 2000 of bad debt expense of ($10,370) with no such reversal recorded in 1999,
and a decrease in general and  administrative  expense of $17,023 which resulted
from a decrease in the average size of the lease portfolio from 1999 to 2000.

       Net income for the three  months  ended  September  30, 2000 and 1999 was
$9,581 and $15,556  respectively.  The net income per weighted  average  limited
partnership unit was $.05 and $.08, respectively.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2000 and 1999

     Revenues  for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2000  were  $38,561,
representing  a decrease  of  $127,433  from 1999.  The  decrease in revenue was
primarily due to the loss on sales of equipment in 2000 of $7,444  compared to a
gain of $46,358 in 1999, a decrease in finance  income of $47,463 and a decrease
in interest income and other of $25,321.  The loss on sales of equipment in 2000
resulted from equipment being sold where the remaining book value exceeded sales
proceeds.  The  decrease in finance  income was due to a decrease in the average
size of the lease  portfolio from 1999 to 2000. The decrease in interest  income
and other was due  primarily  to a decline in the average cash balance from 1999
to 2000.

      Expenses  for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2000 were  $71,377,
representing  an increase of $9,876 from 1999.  The  increase  resulted  from an
increase in general and  administrative  expense of $35,552  which was partially
offset by the  reversal in 2000 of bad debt expense of  ($18,370),  with no such
reversal  recorded in 1999,  and a $7,306  reduction in  administrative  expense
reimbursements.  General and administrative  expenses increased primarily due to
higher professional  service fee levels in the first half of 2000 as compared to
the first half of 1999. The reduction in administrative  expense  reimbursements
resulted from a decrease in the average size of the finance lease portfolio from
1999 to 2000.

     Net (loss) income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 was
($32,816) and $104,493, respectively. The net (loss) income per weighted average
limited partnership unit was ($.16) and $.52 for 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The  Partnership's  primary  sources  of funds  for the nine  months  ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999 were net cash  provided from  operations of $199,004
and $296,863  respectively  and proceeds  from sales of equipment of $61,953 and
$172,191 respectively. These sources were used to fund cash distributions.  Cash
distributions  to limited  partners for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
and 1999 totaled $668,209 and $1,336,477, respectively.

     As  of  September   30,  2000  there  were  no  known  trends  or  demands,
commitments,  events  or  uncertainties  which are  likely to have any  material
effect on liquidity. As cash is realized from operations, sales of equipment and
borrowings,  the Partnership will continue to pay distributions  while retaining
sufficient cash to meet its reserve  requirements  and recurring  obligations as
they become due.
