NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2003
(Unaudited)
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared
by the Fund in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of Management, all ad-
justments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
a fair presentation have been included. These condensed financial statements
should be read with the audited financial statements and notes thereto as of
December 31, 2002 and for the year then ended. The results for the three
months ended March 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2003.
1. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Fund adopted FASB Interpretation 45 (FIN 45), "Guarantor's Accounting
and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" on January 1, 2003. FIN 45 requires
a guarantor entity, at the inception of a guarantee covered by the
measurement provisions of the interpretation, to record a liability for
the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee.
FIN 45 applies prospectively to guarantees the Fund issues or
modifies subsequent to December 31, 2002. The adoption of FIN 45 did not
have a material impact on the financial position or results of operations
of the Fund.
In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46 "Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities". FIN 46 clarifies the application of Accounting Research
Bulletin 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements", for certain entities
that do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its
activities without additional subordinated financial support from other
parties or in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a
controlling financial interest ("variable interest entities"). Variable
interest entities within the scope of FIN 46 will be required to be
consolidated by their primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a
variable interest entity is determined to be the party that absorbs a
majority of the entity's expected losses, receives a majority of its
expected returns, or both. FIN 46 applies immediately to variable interest
entities created after January 31, 2003, and to variable interest entities
in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. It applies in
the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, to
variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest
that it acquired before February 1, 2003. The Fund is in the process of
determining what impact, if any, the adoption of the provisions of FIN 46
will have upon its financial condition or results of operations. The Fund
does not anticipate FIN 46 to have a material impact on the financial
position or results of operations of the Fund.

2. EQUIPMENT LEASED
The Fund 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 ag-
gregate future rentals and unguaranteed residual upon expiration 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 24 to 72 months.
Unguaranteed residuals for direct financing leases represent the esti-
mated amounts recoverable at lease termination from lease extensions
or disposition of the equipment. The Fund reviews these residual
values quarterly. If the equipment's fair market value at lease expi-
ration is below the estimated residual value, an adjustment is made.
The approximate net investment in direct financing leases as of
March 31, 2003 is as follows (unaudited):
Minimum lease payments to be received $1,225,000
Unguaranteed residuals 281,000
Unearned rental income (133,000)
Unearned residual income (12,000)
__________
$1,361,000
==========
Equipment on lease consists of equipment under operating leases. The
Fund's operating leases are for initial lease terms ranging from 58
to 60 months. Generally, operating leases will not recover all of
the undepreciated cost and related expenses of its rental equipment
during the initial lease terms and so, the Fund is prepared to remarket
the equipment. Fund policy is to review quarterly the expected economic
life of its rental equipment in order to determine the recoverability of
its undepreciated cost. Recent and anticipated technological develop-
ments affecting the equipment and competitive factors in the marketplace
are considered among other things, as part of this review. In accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, the Fund writes down its rental equipment to its estimated net
realizable value when the amounts are reasonably estimated and only rec-
ognizes gains upon actual sale of its rental equipment. There were no

3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The General Partner receives 5% of rental payments on equipment under
operating leases and 2% of rental payments (as opposed to earned income)
on full pay-out leases for administrative and management services per-
formed 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.

FIDELITY LEASING INCOME FUND VI, L.P.
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 $ 97,453 and
$155,453 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Earned income on direct financing leases and rental income from the leasing
of equipment accounted for 81% and 83% of total revenues for the first
quarter of 2003 and 2002, respectively. The decrease in total revenues
during the first quarter of 2003 was primarily attributable to the decrease
in earned income on direct financing leases. The decrease in this account
resulted from certain direct financing leases that terminated during 2002 as
well as the normal monthly amortization of unearned income using the interest
method. The decrease in earned income from direct financing leases was
partially mitigated by the earned income recognized on investments made in
direct financing leases subsequent to March 2002. The decrease in interest
income also contributed to the overall decrease in revenues during the first
quarter of 2003. Interest income decreased by approximately $9,000 during the
three months ended March 31, 2003 because of lower cash balances available for
investment by the Fund resulting from significant cash distributions made to
partners during 2003 and 2002 in conformity with the dissolution of the Fund.
Expenses were $132,337 and $143,379 for the three months ended
March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Depreciation expense comprised 25%
and 27% of total expenses during the first quarter of 2003 and 2002, respec-
tively. The overall decrease in expenses was partially attributable to the
decrease in depreciation expense because of equipment that terminated and was
sold during the first quarter of 2002. The decrease in total expenses was
primarily related to the decrease in management fee to related party during
the first quarter of 2003. Management fee to related party decreased because
of the decrease in rentals received on direct financing leases during the
first quarter of 2003. The increase in general and administrative expense
reduced the overall decrease in expenses in the first quarter of 2003. This
account increased because of the increase in various expenses incurred to
administer the Fund on a daily basis.
For the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, the Fund had net
income (loss) of ($34,884) and $12,074, respectively. The net income (loss)
per equivalent limited partnership unit, after net income (loss) allocated
to the General Partner, was ($1.88) and $0.24 based on a weighted average
number of equivalent limited partnership units outstanding of 18,380 and
26,830 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
The Fund generated (used) cash from operations of ($2,148) and $51,499
for the purpose of determining cash available for distribution during the
quarter ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. There were no cash
distributions paid to partners during the first quarter of 2003 and 2002 for
the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. However, the General Partner
declared and paid cash distributions totaling of $1,070,000 during the first
quarter of 2003 for the months ended October 31, November 30, and December 31,
10
FIDELITY LEASING INCOME FUND VI, L.P.
Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(Continued)
2002. Subsequent to March 31, 2003, the General Partner declared and paid two
cash distributions of $35,000 each and one cash distribution of $1,000,000 to
partners totaling $1,070,000 for the first quarter of 2003 Subsequent to
March 31, 2002, the General Partner declared and paid two cash distributions
Of $35,000 each and one cash distribution of $500,000 to partners totaling
$570,000 for the first quarter of 2002. The Fund used the cash available
from previous periods that was not distributed to partners to pay cash
distributions for the first quarter of 2003 and 2002 that exceeded the amount
of cash available from operations for these periods. 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 2003. As pro-
vided 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 cash available from operations that was not
distributed to partners in prior periods. The Fund invested $497,370 in
direct financing leases during the first quarter of 2003.
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.
Item 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
Item 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of LEAF Financial
Corporation, the General Partner of the Fund, have concluded, based on an
evaluation conducted within 90 days prior to the filing date of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q, that the Fund's disclosure controls and procedures as
defined in Rules Section 240.13a-14(c) and 240.15d-14(c) are effective.
There have been no significant changes in the Fund's internal controls or
in other factors since the date of the Chief Executive Officer's and Chief
Financial Officer's evaluation that could significantly affect these internal
controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses.
