ITEM 6.  CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT
         TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

     BALCAP entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 5, 1996
(the "Purchase Agreement"), with USL Capital Corporation ("USL Capital") and
Ford Motor Credit Company, pursuant to which BALCAP agreed to purchase from USL
Capital certain assets of USL Capital and its subsidiaries, including the Units
and all of the capital stock of USAH and Airlease Management Services, Inc.
("AMSI;" collectively, the "Airlease Purchased Assets"). The complete terms of
the transaction are set forth in the Purchase Agreement attached to this
Schedule 13D as Exhibit 6 and incorporated herein by reference.

     The Purchase Agreement provides that consummation of the purchase and sale
of the Airlease Purchased Assets and the assumption of the related liabilities
which are to be assumed by BALCAP pursuant to the Purchase Agreement shall take
place at two closings. The first closing occurred on September 20, 1996 and the
second closing is scheduled to occur on October 31, 1996 (the "Second Closing").
On September 20, 1996, the Units were purchased by BALCAP and, at the second
closing, the capital stock of USAH and AMSI will be purchased by BALCAP.

     At the Second Closing, USL Capital will deliver or cause to be delivered
resignations of all directors and officers of USAH and AMSI who are employees of
USL Capital, USAH or AMSI.

     Pursuant to Section 8.4 of the Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement
of Airlease, dated October 10, 1986 (the "Partnership Agreement"), BALCAP has
agreed to hold 5% of the total number of Units outstanding immediately after the
initial public offering of the Units for so long as AMSI or any related entity
remains the general partner of the partnership.

     Pursuant to Section 4.13 of the Partnership Agreement, AMSI agreed to use
its best efforts to maintain a net worth sufficient such that Airlease would be
taxed as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. Pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement, BALCAP has agreed to arrange for satisfaction by AMSI of the net
worth requirements of the Partnership Agreement. The complete terms governing
Airlease and its partners are set forth in the Partnership Agreement attached to
this Schedule 13D as Exhibit 5 and incorporated herein by reference.

     The summaries of the terms and provisions of certain documents set forth in
Item 6 and elsewhere in this Schedule 13D are not intended to be complete and
are qualified in their entirety by reference to the terms and provisions of such
agreements, which are incorporated herein by reference.

     Except as set forth in Item 6, to the knowledge of BALCAP, Security Pacific
Leasing, Bank of America NT&SA and BAC, no contracts, arrangements,
understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) exist among the persons
named in Item 2 or between such persons and any other person with respect to any
