Commonwealth Income & Growth Fund IV Limited Partnership, or CIGF 4, is a
Pennsylvania limited partnership. Our general partner is a Pennsylvania
corporation that will manage the affairs of CIGF 4 pursuant to our partnership
agreement. Our offering of limited partnership interests, registered pursuant to
a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-62526), was declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 19, 2001 (the
"effective date"). The offering size is $15 million with a minimum requirement
of $1,150,000. All proceeds are held in escrow pending the receipt of this
minimum amount. As of the effective date, we had received an initial capital
contribution of $1,000 from our general partner. CIGF4 was formed to acquire,
lease and sell computer peripheral equipment, primarily through triple net
leases with creditworthy corporations across the country.

As of December 31, 2001, our fiscal year-end, CIGF 4 had not yet received the
minimum required proceeds through the offering described above, and therefore no
such proceeds were released from escrow by our escrow agent, Chase Bank. Thus,
we have not yet commenced business operations and no equipment had been acquired
for CIGF 4, nor had CIGF 4 entered into any equipment leases as of December 31,
2001. When the minimum offering amount is received and released from escrow, we
will file a post-effective amendment to our registration statement with the SEC,
which will provide updated operational and financial information, and will
detail any initial equipment acquisitions by CIGF 4 and any additional material
changes as of the date of such amendment. We anticipate filing such
post-effective amendment in May, 2002.

As of December 31, 2001, with the exception of approximately $66,000 in offering
proceeds currently held in escrow, there have been no material changes to CIGF
4's business, the market for our securities, our financial data, our market risk
exposure, our management, executive compensation, securities ownership by
beneficial owners and management or the status of any related-party
transactions, all as described in our current prospectus.
