NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
1. Summary of significant accounting policies:
Interim financial statements:
The unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in
the opinion of the general partners, necessary to a fair statement of financial
position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. All such
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These unaudited interim financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent report on Form
10K.
2. Organization and partnership matters:
ATEL Cash Distribution Fund VI, L.P. (the Fund), was formed under the laws of
the State of California on June 29 , 1994, for the purpose of acquiring
equipment to engage in equipment leasing and sales activities. Contributions in
the amount of $600 were received as of July 21, 1994, $100 of which represented
the General Partner's (ATEL Financial Corporation's) continuing interest, and
$500 of which represented the Initial Limited Partners' capital investment.
As of December 31, 1994, the Fund had not commenced operations other than those
relating to organizational matters. The Fund, or the General Partner on behalf
of the Fund, will incur costs in connection with the organization, registration
and issuance of the Limited Partnership Units (Units). The amount of such costs
to be borne by the Fund is limited by certain provisions of the Partnership
Agreement. Operations commenced January 3, 1995.
The Partnership does not make a provision for income taxes since all income and
losses will be allocated to the Partners for inclusion in their individual tax
returns.

7. Line of credit:
The Partnership participates with the General Partner and certain of its
Affiliates in a $90,000,000 revolving credit agreement with a group of financial
institutions which expires on October 28, 1997. The agreement includes an
acquisition facility and a warehouse facility which are used to provide bridge
financing for assets on leases. Draws on the acquisition facility by any
individual borrower are secured only by that borrower's assets, including
equipment and related leases. Borrowings on the warehouse facility are recourse
jointly to certain of the Affiliates, the Partnership and the General Partner.
At June 30, 1997, the Partnership had $6,000,000 of borrowings under the line of
credit.
The credit agreement includes certain financial covenants applicable to each
borrower. The Partnership was in compliance with its covenants as of June 30,
1997.
8. Commitments:
As of June 30, 1997, the Partnership had outstanding commitments to purchase
lease equipment totaling approximately $3,784,000.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Capital Resources and Liquidity
During the first and second quarters of 1996, the Partnership's primary
activities were raising funds through its offering of Limited Partnership Units
(Units) and engaging in equipment leasing activities. As of November 23, 1996,
the Partnership had received and accepted subscriptions for 12,500,000 Units
($125,000,000) and the Partnership's offering was closed. During the first half
of 1997, the Partnership's primary activity was engaging in equipment leasing
activities.
The liquidity of the Partnership will vary in the future, increasing to the
extent cash flows from leases exceed expenses, and decreasing as lease assets
are acquired, as distributions are made to the limited partners and to the
extent expenses exceed cash flows from leases.
As another source of liquidity, the Partnership has contractual obligations with
a diversified group of lessees for fixed lease terms at fixed rental amounts. As
the initial lease terms expire, the Partnership will re-lease or sell the
equipment. The future liquidity beyond the contractual minimum rentals will
depend on the General Partner's success in re-leasing or selling the equipment
as it comes off lease.
The Partnership participates with the General Partner and certain of its
affiliates in a $90,000,000 revolving line of credit with a financial
institution. The line of credit expires on October 28, 1997.
The Partnership anticipates reinvesting a portion of lease payments from assets
owned in new leasing transactions. Such reinvestment will occur only after the
payment of all obligations, including debt service (both principal and
interest), the payment of management and acquisition fees to the General Partner
and providing for cash distributions to the Limited Partners.
The Partnership currently has available adequate reserves to meet contingencies,
but in the event those reserves were found to be inadequate, the Partnership
would likely be in a position to borrow against its current portfolio to meet
such requirements. The General Partner envisions no such requirements for
operating purposes.
As of June 30, 1997, the Partnership had borrowed $96,305,533 with a remaining
unpaid balance of $86,172,114. The General Partner expects that aggregate
borrowings in the future will not exceed 50% of aggregate equipment cost. In any
event, the Agreement of Limited Partnership limits such borrowings to 50% of the
total cost of equipment, in aggregate.
No commitments of capital have been or are expected to be made other than for
the acquisition of additional equipment. Such commitments totaled approximately
$3,784,000 as of June 30, 1997.
If inflation in the general economy becomes significant, it may affect the
Partnership inasmuch as the residual (resale) values and rates on re-leases of
the Partnership's leased assets may increase as the costs of similar assets
increase. However, the Partnership's revenues from existing leases would not
increase, as such rates are generally fixed for the terms of the leases without
adjustment for inflation.
If interest rates increase significantly, the lease rates that the Partnership
can obtain on future leases will be expected to increase as the cost of capital
is a significant factor in the pricing of lease financing. Leases already in
place, for the most part, would not be affected by changes in interest rates.

Cash Flows, 1997 vs. 1996:
Six months:
In 1997, the Partnership's primary source of cash was rents from operating
leases. Cash provided by operations increased by $4,853,692 (from $6,098,712 in
1996 to $10,952,404 in 1997). This increase was due to an increase of $8,157,857
in operating lease rents.
The only sources of cash from investing activities were direct financing lease
rents and proceeds from sales of lease assets. Neither of these was significant
compared to operating sources of cash.
The Partnership's most significant source of cash from financing activities in
1997 was proceeds of non-recourse debt. The proceeds of this debt were used to
make payments on the Partnership's line of credit. In 1996, the proceeds of the
Partnership's offering was also a significant source of cash. The offering was
concluded in the fourth quarter of 1996.
Three months:
Operating lease rents were the primary source of cash from operating activities
in 1997. These rents increased by $3,349,056 compared to 1996.
As noted above for the six month period, proceeds from asset sales and direct
financing lease rents were the only sources of cash from investing activities in
1997 and were not significant.
The primary source of cash from financing activities in 1997 was proceeds from
non-recourse debt. The proceeds of this debt were used to pay down the line of
credit.
Results of operations
In 1997, operations resulted in a net loss of $1,754,432 (six months) and
$786,027 (three months). Operations resulted in a net loss in 1996 of $761,190
(six months) and $267,823 (three months). The Partnership's primary source of
revenues is from operating leases. This is expected to remain true in future
periods. Depreciation expense is the single largest expense of the Partnership
and is expected to remain so in future periods. Operating lease rents and
depreciation of operating lease assets have increased compared to 1996 due to
purchases of lease assets over the last year. Equipment management fees are
based on the Partnership's rental revenues and have increased as revenues have
increased. Incentive management fees are based on the levels of distributions to
limited partners. As the number of units outstanding increased, the incentive
management fee has increased. Interest expense is related to the borrowings
under the line of credit and non-recourse debt and has increased because of
increased debt balances compared to 1996.
As of June 30, 1996, the Partnership's offering of Units of Limited Partnership
interest was continuing. Significant amounts of asset acquisitions and debt
financing were also taking place. Because of these factors, the results of
operations in 1996 are not comparable to 1997.
