PART I

Item 1. Business

     (a) General Development of Business

     Cronos Global Income Fund XVI, L.P. (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership that was organized under the laws of the State of California on September 1, 1995, for the purpose of owning and leasing marine cargo containers, special purpose containers and container-related equipment. The Partnership was initially capitalized with $100 and commenced offering its limited partnership interests to the public subsequent to December 28, 1995, pursuant to its Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 33-98290). On February 3, 1997, Cronos Capital Corp. (“CCC” or the “General Partner”), suspended the offer and sale of units in the Partnership. Information concerning the suspended offer and sale of units in the Partnership is incorporated by reference to the discussion in the Supplement dated February 6, 1997 to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (No. 33-98290), dated December 28, 1995, as supplemented December 27, 1996. The offering was not resumed and terminated on December 27, 1997.

     The Partnership raised $31,993,340 in subscription proceeds. The following table sets forth the use of said subscription proceeds.

						Percentage of
		Amount				Gross Proceeds
Gross subscription proceeds		$	31,993,340				100.0	%
Public offering expenses:
Underwriting commissions		$	3,199,334				10.0	%
Offering and organization expenses		$	1,482,466				4.6	%
Total public offering expenses		$	4,681,800				14.6	%
Net proceeds		$	27,311,540				85.4	%
Acquisition fees		$	1,276,220				4.0	%
Working capital reserve		$	319,933				1.0	%
Unexpended proceeds		$	190,993				0.6	%
Gross proceeds invested in equipment		$	25,524,394				79.8	%

     The Partnership established an initial working capital reserve of approximately 1% of subscription proceeds raised. The Partnership may reserve additional amounts from anticipated cash distributions to the partners to meet working capital requirements.

     CCC and other affiliated companies are wholly-owned by Cronos Ltd., a Bermuda exempted company (the “Parent Company”). On July 28, 2010, the Parent Company consummated several transactions with investment funds affiliated with Kelso & Company, L.P. (collectively “Kelso”), a private equity firm based in New York. Pursuant to these transactions, Kelso acquired a majority interest in the Parent Company through a newly-organized holding company, Cronos Holding Company Ltd. (“Cronos” or the “Ultimate Holding Company”), also a Bermuda exempted company. Cronos, the Parent Company and other affiliated companies are collectively referred to as the “Group”.

     In connection with the transactions with Kelso, Dennis J. Tietz retired as a director of CCC. Messrs. Younger, Vaughan, and Kallas remain as directors of CCC. See Item 10 of Part III, “Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance” herein.

     The leasing activities of the Group are managed through the Parent Company’s subsidiary in the United Kingdom, Cronos Containers Limited (the “Leasing Agent”). The Leasing Agent manages the leasing operations of all equipment owned by the Group on its own behalf or on behalf of other container owners, including all programs organized by CCC.

     On October 9, 1995, the Leasing Agent entered into an agreement (the “Leasing Agent Agreement”) with the Partnership whereby the parties contracted for the Leasing Agent to manage the leasing operations for all equipment owned by the Partnership.

     See Item 7 — “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” herein for discussion of recent developments of the Partnership’s business.

     For information concerning the Partnership’s owned containers, see Item 2, “Properties”.

     (b) Narrative Description of Business

     A marine cargo container is a reusable metal container designed for the efficient carriage of cargo with a minimum risk of loss from damage or theft. Containers are manufactured to conform to worldwide standards of container dimensions and containership fittings adopted by the International Standards Organization (“ISO”) in 1968. The standard dry marine cargo container is either 20’ long x 8’ wide x 8’6” high (one twenty-foot equivalent unit (“TEU”), the standard unit of physical measurement in the container industry) or 40’ long x 8’ wide x 8’6” high (two TEU). Standardization of the construction, maintenance and handling of containers allows containers to be picked up, dropped off, stored and repaired efficiently throughout the world. This standardization is the foundation on which the container industry has developed.

     One of the primary benefits of containerization has been the ability of the shipping industry to effectively lower freight rates due to the efficiencies created by standardized intermodal containers. Containers can be handled much more efficiently than loose cargo and are typically shipped via several modes of transportation, including ship, truck and rail. Containers allow for efficient loading and unloading and remain sealed until arrival at the final destination, significantly reducing transport time, labor and handling costs and losses due to damage and theft. Efficient movement of containerized cargo between ship and shore reduces the amount of time that a ship must spend in port.

     The logistical advantages and reduced freight rates brought about by containerization have been major catalysts for world trade growth since the late 1960’s, resulting in an increased demand for containers. The world’s container fleet has grown from an estimated 270,000 TEU in 1969 to approximately 27.5 million TEU by the end of 2010. The container leasing business is cyclical, and depends largely upon the rate of growth in the volume of world trade.

Benefits of Leasing

     The container fleets of leasing companies represent approximately 41% of the world’s container fleet with the balance owned predominantly by shipping lines. Shipping lines, which traditionally operate on tight profit margins, often supplement their owned fleet of containers by leasing a portion of their equipment from container leasing companies and, in doing so, achieve the following financial and operational benefits:

	•		Leasing provides shipping lines with the flexibility to respond to rapidly changing market opportunities as they arise without relying exclusively on their own containers;
	•		Leasing allows shipping lines to respond to changing seasonal and trade route demands, thereby optimizing their capital investment and minimizing storage costs;
	•		Leasing enables shipping lines to expand their trade routes and market shares at a relatively low cost without making a permanent commitment to support their new structure;

	•		Leasing allows the shipping lines to utilize the equipment they need without having to make large capital expenditures;
	•		Leasing offers a shipping line an alternative source of financing in a traditionally capital-intensive industry; and
	•		Leasing allows shipping lines to benefit from the relationships between container manufacturers and leasing companies.

Fleet Profile

     The Partnership owns marine cargo containers manufactured to specifications that exceed ISO standards and are designed to minimize repair and operating costs.

     Dry cargo containers are the most commonly used type of container in the shipping industry, used to carry a wide variety of cargoes ranging from heavy industrial raw materials to light-weight finished goods. The Partnership’s dry cargo container fleet is constructed of all CortenÒ steel (i.e., CortenÒ roofs, walls, doors and undercarriage), which is a high-tensile steel yielding greater damage and corrosion resistance than mild steel.

     Refrigerated containers are used to transport temperature-sensitive products, such as meat, fruit and vegetables. The majority of the Partnership’s 20-foot refrigerated containers have high-grade stainless steel outer walls, while most of the Partnership’s 40-foot refrigerated containers are steel framed with aluminum outer walls to reduce weight. All refrigerated containers are designed to minimize repair and maintenance and maximize damage resistance. All of the Partnership’s refrigerated containers utilize sophisticated refrigeration machinery. Refrigerated containers are technologically more complex than other types of marine cargo containers.

     The Partnership’s tank container fleet is constructed and maintained in accordance with international codes for the worldwide transport and storage of bulk liquids on both land and sea. These codes include the ISO, the International Maritime Organization standards and recommendations and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers VIII Pressure Vessel Design Code. The Partnership’s tank fleet may carry highly flammable materials, corrosives, toxics and oxidizing substances, but are also capable of carrying non-hazardous materials and food products. They have a capacity of between 17,500 and 26,000 liters and are generally insulated and equipped with steam or electrical heating.

     The following table sets forth the number of containers in the Partnership’s operating lease fleet based on container type, and is measured in TEUs at December 31, 2010:

		Dry Cargo				Refrigerated
		Containers				Containers				Tank Containers				Total
Container on lease:
Master lease			4,065				35				14				4,114
Term lease
Short term1			154				1				17				172
Long term2			1,240				14				8				1,262
			1,394				15				25				1,434
Subtotal			5,459				50				39				5,548
Containers off-hire			155				6				4				165
Total container fleet			5,614				56				43				5,713

     The Leasing Agent makes payments to the Partnership based upon rentals collected from customers.

Types of Leases

     The Leasing Agent leases the Partnership’s containers primarily to shipping lines operating in major trade routes (see Item 1(d)). The Partnership’s marine containers may be leased pursuant to master leases, term leases, and direct financing leases.

	•		Master leases. Master leases provide customers with flexibility by allowing them to pick up containers where and when required on pre-agreed terms, subject to restrictions and availability. Master leases also define the number of containers that may be returned within each calendar month, the permitted return locations and applicable drop-off charges. Due to the increased flexibility they offer, master leases usually command higher per-diem rates and generate more ancillary revenue (including pick-up, drop-off, handling and off-hire revenue) than term leases. The commercial terms of master leases are usually negotiated or renewed annually.
	•		Term leases. Term leases are for a fixed quantity of containers for a fixed period of time, typically ranging from three to seven years. In most cases, containers cannot be returned prior to the expiration of the lease. Some term lease agreements contain early termination penalties that apply in the event of early redelivery. Term leases provide greater revenue stability to the lessor, but usually at lower lease rates than master leases. Ocean carriers use term leases to lower their operating costs when they have a need for an identified number of containers for a specified term.
	•		Direct financing leases. Direct financing leases are long-term in nature, usually ranging from three to seven years, and require relatively low levels of customer service. They ordinarily require fixed payments over a defined period and provide customers with an option to purchase the subject containers at the end of the lease term. Per-diem rates include an element of repayment of capital and therefore are usually higher than rates charged under either term or master leases.

     The percentage of containers on term, master and other lease types varies widely among leasing companies, depending upon each company’s leasing strategy.

     Lease rates depend on several factors including a customer’s credit worthiness, type of lease, length of term, type and age of the containers, container replacement costs, interest rates, maintenance provided, and market conditions.

     The Partnership’s containers are leased globally; therefore, seasonal fluctuations are minimal. The transportation industry in general and the container leasing industry in particular are subject to fluctuations in supply and demand for equipment resulting from changes in general business conditions, obsolescence, changes in the methods or economics of a particular mode of transportation or changes in governmental regulations or safety standards.

     The terms and conditions of the Leasing Agent’s leases provide that customers are responsible for paying all taxes and service charges arising from container use, maintaining the containers in good and safe operating condition while on lease and paying for repairs, excluding ordinary wear and tear, upon redelivery. Some leases provide for a “damage protection plan” whereby customers, for an additional payment (which may be in the form of a higher per-diem rate), are relieved of the responsibility of paying designated repair costs upon redelivery of the containers. The Leasing Agent provides this service to selected customers. Repairs provided under such plans are carried out by the same depots, under the same procedures, as are repairs to containers not covered by such plans.

     Amounts due under master leases are calculated at the end of each month and billed approximately three to five days thereafter. Amounts due under term, sales-type and direct financing leases are set forth in the respective lease agreements and are also billed three to five days following month end. Payment is normally received within 60-90 days of billing.

Customers

     The Partnership does not believe that its ongoing business is dependent upon a single lessee of the Leasing Agent, although the loss of one or more of the Leasing Agent’s lessees could have an adverse effect upon its business. The following lessees of the Leasing Agent each generated 10% or more of the gross lease revenue earned on the Partnership’s equipment in 2010: Mediterranean Shipping Company S.A. generated approximately 20%, or $243,771 of gross lease revenue, and Hapag-Lloyd AG generated approximately 13%, or $157,417 of gross lease revenue. The majority of the Leasing Agent’s lessees are billed and pay in United States (“US”) dollars.

Credit Controls

     The Leasing Agent sets maximum credit limits for all of the Partnership’s customers, limiting the number of containers leased to each according to established credit criteria. The Leasing Agent continually tracks its credit exposure to each customer. The Leasing Agent’s credit committee oversees the performance of the Partnership’s customers and recommends actions to be taken in order to minimize credit risks. The Leasing Agent also uses specialist third-party credit information services and reports prepared by local staff to assess credit quality.

     The Partnership may be subject to unexpected loss in rental revenue from lessees of its containers that default under their container lease agreements with the Leasing Agent. The Leasing Agent maintains insurance against costs of container recovery and repair in the event that a customer declares bankruptcy and against the loss of certain lease revenues.

Repair and Maintenance

     All containers are inspected and repaired as needed when redelivered by customers, who are obligated to pay for all damage repair with the exception of ordinary wear and tear, according to standardized industry guidelines. Some customers are relieved of the responsibility of paying some repair costs upon redelivery of containers, as described under “Description of Business — Type of Leases.” Depots in major port areas perform repair and maintenance that is verified by either independent surveyors or the Leasing Agent’s technical and operations staff.

     Before any repair or refurbishment is authorized on older containers in the Partnership’s fleet, the Leasing Agent’s technical and operations staff reviews the location, age, condition and type of container, and its suitability for continued leasing. The Leasing Agent compares the cost of such repair or refurbishment with the prevailing market resale price that might be obtained for that container and makes the decision whether to repair or sell the container accordingly. The Leasing Agent is authorized to make this decision on behalf of the Partnership and makes this decision by applying the same standards to the Partnership’s containers as to its other managed containers.

Disposition of Used Containers

     The Partnership estimates the useful operational life for its containers is 15 years. On behalf of the Partnership, the Leasing Agent disposes of used containers in a worldwide secondary market in which buyers include wholesalers, mini-storage operators, construction companies and others. The market for used containers generally depends on the location of the container at the time of disposition, foreign currency exchange rates, the lease market for marine cargo containers, the cost of new containers, the quantity of used containers being supplied to the secondary market, technological advances in container construction and in techniques of ocean transportation, and developments in world trade. As the Partnership’s fleet ages, a larger proportion of its revenue and cash flow will be derived from selling its containers.

Operations

     The Partnership’s sales and marketing operations are conducted through the Leasing Agent in the United Kingdom, with support provided by area offices and dedicated agents located in San Francisco, New Jersey, Antwerp, Genoa, Gothenburg, Hamburg, Singapore, Hong Kong, Sydney, Tokyo, Taipei, Seoul, Rio de Janeiro, Shanghai, Lisbon and Chennai.

     The Leasing Agent also maintains agency relationships with 14 independent agents around the world who are located in jurisdictions where the volume of the Leasing Agent’s business necessitates a presence in the area but is not sufficient to justify a fully-functioning Leasing Agent office or dedicated agent. Agents provide marketing support to the area offices covering the region, together with limited operational support.

     In addition, the Leasing Agent relies on the services of 217 independently owned and operated depots around the world to inspect, repair, maintain and store containers while off-hire. The Leasing Agent’s area offices authorize all container movements into and out of the depot and supervise all repairs and maintenance performed by the depot. The Leasing Agent’s technical staff sets the standards for repair of its managed fleet throughout the world and monitors the quality of depot repair work. The depots provide a link to the Leasing Agent’s operations, as the redelivery of a container into a depot is the point at which the container is off-hired from one customer and prepared for re-leasing to the next customer.

     The Leasing Agent’s global network is integrated with its computer system and provides 24-hour communication between offices, agents and depots. The system allows the Leasing Agent to manage and control the Partnership’s fleet on a global basis, providing it with the responsiveness and flexibility necessary to service the leasing market effectively. This system is an integral part of the Leasing Agent’s service, as it processes information received from the various offices, generates billings to customers and produces a wide range of reports on all aspects of the Leasing Agent’s leasing activities. The system records the life history of each container, including the length of time on and off-hire, repair costs, as well as port activity trends, leasing activity and equipment data per customer. The operations and marketing data is fully interfaced with the finance and accounting system to provide revenue, cost and asset information to management and staff around the world.

     In recent years, the Leasing Agent and other lessors have developed certain Internet-based applications to enhance their customer support network, allowing customers access to make on-line product inquiries. The Leasing Agent will introduce other Internet-based applications to support its global operations when suitable applications are identified.

Insurance

     The Leasing Agent’s lease agreements typically require customers to obtain insurance to cover all risks of physical damage and loss of the equipment under lease, as well as public liability and property damage insurance. The precise nature and amount of the insurance carried by each customer may vary. The Leasing Agent has purchased insurance policies that provide secondary coverage effective in the event that a customer fails to have adequate primary coverage and coverage that insures against customer default events. These policies cover liability arising out of bodily injury and / or property damage as a result of the ownership and operation of the containers, as well as insurance against loss or damage to the containers, loss of lease revenue in certain cases and the cost of container recovery and repair. The Leasing Agent believes that the nature and the amounts of its insurance are customary in the container leasing industry and subject to standard industry deductions and exclusions.

Competition

     Container leasing companies compete not only with one another but also with their customers, primarily the shipping lines. Approximately 41% of the world’s container fleet is owned by container leasing companies, with the balance owned by shipping lines and other non-leasing owners.

     Competition among container leasing companies is based upon several factors, including the location and availability of inventory, lease rates, the type, quality and condition of the lessor’s containers, the quality and flexibility of the service offered, the availability of suitable financing, and the professional relationship between the customer and the lessor. Other factors include the speed with which a Leasing Agent can prepare its containers for lease and the ease with which a customer can do business with a lessor or its local area office.

     The Leasing Agent, on behalf of the Partnership, competes with various container leasing companies in the markets in which it conducts business. Mergers and acquisitions have been a feature of the container leasing industry for over a decade, and currently, the container leasing market essentially comprises three distinct groups. The first group includes six of the largest leasing companies that control almost 72% of the total leased fleet. The second group, consisting of five companies, which includes the Leasing Agent, controls approximately 22% of the total leased fleet. The third group controls the remaining 6%, and is comprised of smaller, more specialized fleet operators and new entrants to the container leasing industry who have been attracted by high levels of containerized trade and low entry barriers to the container leasing industry.

     Some leasing companies have greater financial resources than the Leasing Agent and may be capable of offering lower per-diem rates on a larger fleet. However, ocean carriers will generally lease containers from more than one leasing company in order to minimize dependence on a single supplier. In addition, not all container leasing companies compete in the same market, as some supply only dry cargo containers while others offer only long-term leases.

Environmental Matters

     Historically, refrigerated containers have utilized a refrigerant gas which is a chlorofluorocarbon (“CFC”) compound. It is generally assumed that CFCs are harmful to the Earth’s ozone layer when released into the atmosphere. Many nations, including the US, have taken action, both collectively and individually, to regulate CFCs. These nations have set various targets for reductions in production and use of CFCs, and their eventual elimination. There has been substantial progress in securing a viable substitute for the refrigerant used in containers. Production of new container refrigeration units operating with the replacement refrigerant became generally available in 1993. All of the Partnership’s refrigerated containers use non-CFC refrigerant gas in the operation and insulation of the containers. The refrigerant used in the Partnership’s refrigerated containers could also become subject to similar governmental regulations.

Employees

     The Partnership is a limited partnership and is managed by CCC. Accordingly the Partnership does not have any employees. At February 28, 2011, CCC had 20 employees and the Leasing Agent had 23 employees.

     (c) Financial Information About Segments

     An operating segment is a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the enterprise’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and about which separate financial information is available. The Leasing Agent’s management operates the Partnership’s container fleet as a homogeneous unit and has determined that as such it has a single reportable operating segment.

     The Partnership derives revenues from dry cargo and specialized containers. Specialized containers comprise refrigerated and tank containers. A summary of gross lease revenue earned by each Partnership container product for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 follows:

		2010				2009				2008
Dry cargo containers		$	1,000,105			$	1,150,647			$	1,663,728
Refrigerated containers			92,012				190,501				356,450
Tank containers			142,901				149,150				165,428
Total		$	1,235,018			$	1,490,298			$	2,185,606

     Due to the Partnership’s lack of information regarding the physical location of its container fleet while on lease in the global shipping trade, it is impracticable to provide geographic area information. Any attempt to separate “foreign” operations from “domestic” operations would be dependent on definitions and assumptions that are so subjective as to render the information meaningless and potentially misleading. Accordingly, the Partnership believes that it does not possess discernible geographic reporting segments as defined in the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification” or “ASC”) 280-10-05 — “Segment Reporting”.

     (d) Financial Information About Geographic Areas

     The Partnership’s business is not divided between foreign or domestic operations. The Partnership’s business is the leasing of containers worldwide to ocean carriers. To this extent, the Partnership’s operations are subject to the fluctuations of world economic and political conditions. The Partnership believes that the profitability of, and risks associated with, leases to foreign customers is generally the same as those of leases to domestic customers.

     Lease revenue is deemed to be earned based on the physical location of the containers while on lease. Almost all of the Partnership’s lease revenue is earned from containers leased worldwide to ocean carriers. Due to the lack of information regarding the physical location of the Partnership’s fleet when on lease in the global shipping trade, the Partnership believes that it does not possess discernible geographic reporting segments.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

     An investment in the Partnership involves risk.

Risks Related to the Container Leasing Industry and to the Partnership

     Demand for leased containers depends on economic and political factors beyond the control of the Leasing Agent, CCC and the Partnership.

     Demand for containers depends largely on levels of world trade and the rate of economic growth. Demand for leased containers is largely dependent on the decision of shipping lines to lease, rather than purchase, containers to supplement their own operating fleets. Any significant changes in the composition of the shipping lines’ leased and owned container fleets could adversely affect the demand for leased containers. Other factors that may affect demand for leased containers, container utilization and per-diem rental rates include, but are not limited to:

	•		prices of new and used containers;
	•		economic conditions, competitive pressures and consolidation in the container shipping industry;
	•		shifting trends and patterns of cargo traffic;
	•		the availability and terms of container financing;
	•		fluctuations in inflation rates, interest rates and foreign currency values;
	•		overcapacity, undercapacity and consolidation of container manufacturers;
	•		the lead times required to purchase containers;
	•		the number of containers purchased by competitors and container lessees;
	•		container ship fleet overcapacity or undercapacity;
	•		increased repositioning by container shipping lines of their own empty containers to higher demand locations instead of leasing containers;
	•		consolidation or withdrawal of individual container lessees in the container leasing industry;
	•		import / export tariffs and restrictions;
	•		customs procedures, foreign exchange controls and other governmental regulations;
	•		natural disasters that are severe enough to affect local and global economies or interfere with trade; and
	•		other political and economic factors.

     Lease rates may decrease, which could harm the results of operations and financial condition of the Partnership.

          Lease rates for containers depend on a large number of factors, including the following:

	•		the supply of containers available;
	•		the price of new containers (which is positively correlated with the price of steel);
	•		the type and length of the lease;
	•		interest rates;
	•		embedded residual assumptions;
	•		the type and age of the container;
	•		the location of the container being leased;
	•		the number of containers available for lease by competitors; and
	•		the lease rates offered by competitors.

     Customer defaults could have an adverse effect on the profitability and financial condition of the Leasing Agent and the Partnership.

          The Partnership’s container equipment is leased to numerous customers by the Leasing Agent. The leases provide for the payment of lease rentals and the indemnification for damages and for the loss of the equipment while on lease. Delays in the receipt of amounts due under the lease agreements could adversely affect the business of the Leasing Agent and the Partnership.

          A default by a customer may result in lost revenue for past leasing services and other items. The recovery of containers from customers that have defaulted can prove difficult and expensive. When containers are recovered, the Leasing Agent may not be able to re-lease the equipment at comparable rates or on favorable lease terms.

     Fluctuations in the residual value of containers may impact profitability and the long-term returns generated by leased equipment.

          The majority of containers that are at the end of their useful economic life are sold in the non-maritime secondary market for use as temporary or permanent storage facilities. The proceeds realized on the disposition of such containers depend on a variety of factors, including the location of the container at the time of disposition, foreign currency exchange rates, the lease market for marine cargo containers, the price of new containers, the quantity of used containers supplied to the secondary market, and technological advances in container manufacturing. A reduction in container residual values could adversely affect the long-term returns generated by containers, resulting in reduced profitability and capital availability.

     The Leasing Agent operates in a highly competitive industry.

          The Leasing Agent competes with leasing companies, banks and other financial institutions. Some of the Leasing Agent’s competitors have greater financial resources and may be capable of offering lower per-diem rates. In addition, the barriers to entry for the container leasing industry are relatively low at times when capital is readily available. If the supply of available equipment increased significantly as a result of container purchases by competitors and/or new companies entering the industry, demand for the Partnership’s equipment could be adversely affected.

     Increases in the cost of insurance or the lack of availability of insurance could increase the risk exposure of the Partnership and reduce its profitability. Potential losses could exceed maximum insurance coverage limits

          The Leasing Agent’s lease agreements typically require customers to obtain insurance to cover all risks of physical damage and loss of the equipment under lease, as well as public liability and property damage insurance. However, the precise nature and amount of the insurance carried by each customer may vary. In addition, the Leasing Agent has purchased insurance policies that provide secondary coverage effective in the event a customer fails to have adequate primary coverage and insures against customer default events. These policies cover liability arising out of bodily injury and / or property damage as a result of the ownership and operation of the containers, as well as insurance against loss or damage to the containers, loss of lease revenue in certain cases and the cost of container recovery and repair. Nevertheless, the insurance coverage and indemnities provided may not provide full protection. In addition, there is a risk that the cost of such insurance may increase or become prohibitively expensive and such insurance coverage may not continue to be available.

     The Leasing Agent relies on its information technology systems to conduct its business. Any failure or interruption in these systems could have an adverse effect on the profitability and financial condition of the Leasing Agent and the Partnership.

          The efficient operation of the Leasing Agent’s business is highly dependent on information technology systems that allow the Leasing Agent to track the container equipment and all transactions involving the equipment, including container pick-ups and drop-offs, and to bill its customers. In addition, the information provided by information technology systems is used by the Leasing Agent to manage its business.

          The information technology systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption from circumstances including fire, natural disasters, power loss and computer system failures and viruses. Any such interruption could have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s business.

     The Leasing Agent and Partnership are reliant on electronic banking systems to receive and make payments. Any failure or interruption in banking systems could have an adverse effect on the profitability and financial condition of the Leasing Agent and the Partnership.

          The majority of payments from customers to the Leasing Agent are made via electronic funds transfer (“EFT”). Similarly, the Leasing Agent transfers funds to the Partnership by EFT. Any failure or interruption in banking systems could have an adverse effect on the operations of the Leasing Agent and the Partnership.

     Specialized containers could experience potential mechanical, obsolescence and other risks.

          Specialized containers include refrigerated containers and tanks. Refrigerated containers are subject to inherent risks of mechanical breakdown, technological obsolescence and potential environmental issues relating to refrigerant gases. Tanks, which can be used to transport hazardous materials, include additional risks of environmental and tort liability.

     Environmental liability may adversely affect the Partnership’s business and financial situation.

          Under the laws of certain nations, the owner of a container may be liable for environmental damage and / or cleanup costs and / or other sums in the event of actual or threatened discharge or other contamination by material in a container. This liability could potentially be imposed on a container owner, such as the Partnership, even if the owner is not at fault. It is not possible to predict the amount of any such liability.

     Affiliates of the Leasing Company may not have adequate resources to pay container manufacturers for equipment purchased for resale.

          Affiliates of the Leasing Agent periodically acquire equipment from container manufacturers for resale to Managed Equipment Programs and other parties (the “Purchasers”). The affiliates agree to the terms of the sale with the Purchasers prior to placing an order with the container manufacturers. If the Purchasers do not complete the purchase of the equipment, then the affiliates of the Leasing Agent may not have the resources to pay the container manufacturer. In such an event they would need to seek a new Purchaser and / or extend the payment terms with the manufacturers. There is a risk that a default by a Purchaser could impair the financial condition of the Leasing Agent.

     There are political, economic and business risks inherent in the global business environment.

          The container leasing business may be adversely affected by additional business, economic and political risks that generally are beyond the control of the Leasing Agent, CCC and the Partnership:

	•		Political and economic instability;
	•		Increases in maintenance expenses, taxes, third party fees and other expenses attributable to the operation and the maintenance of the containers that cannot be offset by increased lease revenues from the containers;
	•		Fluctuations in supply and demand for containers resulting from, among other things, obsolescence, changes in the methods or economics of a particular mode of transportation or changes in governmental regulations or safety standards;
	•		Restrictions on the movement of capital;
	•		The imposition of new direct and indirect taxes in jurisdictions in which the Leasing Agent trades;
	•		The effects of strikes and labor disputes; and
	•		Terrorist acts, conflicts and wars.

Risk Associated with the Operations of an Equipment Leasing Business in Partnership Form

     There is no assurance of successful operations.

          No assurance can be given that the Partnership’s operations will be successful or that it will meet its originally stated investment objectives. Specifically, there is no assurance that cash will be available for distribution to the Partnership’s investors.

     The Partnership has a high degree of reliance on CCC and the Leasing Agent.

          The Partnership’s operations are dependent upon the ability of CCC, and its affiliate, the Leasing Agent, to arrange for the leasing, maintenance and eventual sale of containers on behalf of the Partnership. The Partnership’s limited partners have no right to take part in the day-to-day management of the Partnership; all decisions with respect to such management are made exclusively by CCC.

     The Partnership is dependent on key personnel in CCC and the Leasing Agent.

          Most of CCC’s and the Leasing Agent’s senior executives and other management-level employees have been with CCC or the Leasing Agent for over ten years and have significant industry experience. The loss of the services of one or more of them could have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s business. CCC believes that its future success and that of the leasing partnerships it manages depend upon its and its affiliates’ ability to retain key members of their management teams and to attract capable management in the future. There can be no assurance that CCC and its affiliates will be able to do so. CCC does not maintain “key man” life insurance on any of its officers.

     There is a lack of liquidity for Partnership units.

          There is no market for the Partnership’s units and there are significant restrictions on the transferability thereof. Limited partners may not be able to liquidate their investment, even in the event of an emergency. While the limited partners may present their units for repurchase by the Partnership, in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, there can be no assurance that the Partnership will exercise its option to repurchase any of the units presented.

     The Limited Partners have limited voting rights.

          Limited partners have only limited voting rights on matters affecting the Partnership’s business, and are not permitted to take part in the management of the Partnership. Generally, for any matter submitted for a vote of the limited partners, including the removal of the General Partner, a vote of a simple majority in interest of the limited partners is required for approval.

     Limited liability is not clearly established.

          In certain jurisdictions in which the Partnership may do business, the limited liability of limited partnerships formed under the laws of other jurisdictions has not been clearly established. There can be no assurance that CCC will be able, even through its best efforts, to ensure that the limited liability of the Partnership’s limited partners will be preserved in all jurisdictions. Were limited liability not available to the limited partners, the limited partners might be liable for the Partnership’s debt in an amount exceeding their capital contributions to the Partnership plus their share of the profits thereof.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

     The following discussion of the Partnership’s historical financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and the notes thereto and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report.

     Forward-Looking Statements

     The information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Report”) contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the securities laws. These forward-looking statements reflect the current view of the Partnership and CCC with respect to future events and financial performance, and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Partnership and CCC. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Report, including statements under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” regarding the Partnership’s strategy, future operations, estimated revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of the Partnership are forward-looking statements.

     All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Report. The Partnership does not undertake any obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Although the Partnership and CCC believe that their plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by the forward-looking statements made in this report are reasonable, the Partnership and CCC can give no assurance that these plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. Future economic, political and industry trends that could potentially impact revenues and profitability are difficult to predict, as well as the risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, changes in demand for leased containers, changes in global business conditions and their effect on world trade, changes within the global shipping industry, the financial strength of the shipping lines and other lessees of the Partnership’s containers, fluctuations in new container prices, changes in the costs of maintaining and repairing used containers, changes in competition, changes in the ability of the Leasing Agent to maintain insurance on behalf of the Partnership’s container fleet, as well as other risks detailed herein and from time to time in the Partnership’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC).

     Because the Partnership is a limited partnership, the Partnership is not entitled to rely upon the safe harbor provision for forward-looking statements relating to the operations of the Partnership under Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

     Primary Revenue Items

     All of the revenue generated by the Partnership comes from the leasing and sale of containers. One of the primary components of the Partnership’s results of operations is net lease revenue. Net lease revenue is determined by deducting direct operating expenses, management fees and reimbursable administrative expenses from the gross lease revenues that are generated from the leasing of the Partnership’s containers. Gross lease revenue is directly related to the size, utilization and per-diem rental rates of the Partnership’s fleet. Direct operating expenses are those associated with the Partnership’s containers and may be categorized as follows:

	•		Activity-related expenses, include agents costs and depot costs such as repairs, maintenance and handling;
	•		Inventory-related expenses for off-hire containers, comprise of storage and repositioning costs. These costs are sensitive to the quantity of off-hire containers as well as the frequency at which containers are re-delivered and the frequency and size of repositioning moves undertaken; and
	•		Legal and other expenses, include legal costs related to the recovery of containers and doubtful accounts, insurance and provisions for doubtful accounts.

     Partnership Overview

     Pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership, all authority to administer the business of the Partnership is vested with CCC. A Leasing Agent Agreement exists between the Partnership and the Leasing Agent, whereby they have contracted for the Leasing Agent to manage the leasing operations for all container equipment owned by the Partnership. In addition to responsibility for leasing and re-leasing the container equipment to ocean carriers, the Leasing Agent disposes of the containers at the end of their useful economic life. The Leasing

Agent Agreement has full discretion over which ocean carriers and suppliers of goods and services it may deal with. The Leasing Agent Agreement permits the Leasing Agent to use the containers owned by the Partnership, together with other containers owned or managed by the Leasing Agent and its affiliates, as part of a single fleet operated without regard to ownership.

     During the Partnership’s first 10 years of operations, its primary objective was to generate cash flow from operations for distribution to its limited partners. Aside from the initial working capital reserve retained from gross subscription proceeds (equal to approximately 1% of such proceeds), the Partnership relied primarily on container rental receipts to meet this objective, as well as to finance operating expenses. No credit lines are maintained to finance working capital. Commencing in April 2007, the Partnership’s 11th year of operations, the Partnership began to focus its attention on the disposition of its fleet in accordance with another of its original investment objectives, realizing the residual value of its containers commencing after the tenth full year of operations. Cash generated from container sales proceeds are distributed to its limited partners.

     The Partnership has entered its 16^th year of operations. Accordingly, it will continue its liquidation phase. At December 31, 2010, approximately 48% of the original equipment remained in the Partnership’s fleet, compared to 57% at December 31, 2009. CCC will take several factors into consideration when examining options for the timing of the disposal of the containers. These factors include the level of gross lease revenue generated by the diminishing fleet, the level of costs relative to this revenue, projected disposal proceeds on the disposition of the Partnership’s containers, overall market conditions and any foreseeable changes in other general and administrative expenses.

     During the first half of 2011, CCC may distribute a request for proposal (“RFP”) to prospective third-party container buyers. A RFP would seek to determine any interest such parties may have in purchasing the remaining containers owned by the Partnership. CCC will not make a decision relating to the final liquidation of the Partnership until any such proposals have been received and fully evaluated. If a decision is made to liquidate the Partnership, the distribution of cash from operations or sales proceeds may be suspended while the liquidation of the remaining containers in the fleet is evaluated. This is to ensure that sufficient cash reserves will be available for expenses relating to the final liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Partnership. CCC would make one or more liquidating distributions to the Limited Partners on or before the termination of the Partnership, or reinstate the monthly cash distributions should no decision be made to liquidate the fleet in 2011.

     The following table details the proportion of the operating lease fleet remaining by product type, and is measured in TEUs at December 31, 2010:

		Dry Cargo								Refrigerated
		Containers								Containers								Tank Containers								Total
		TEU					%			TEU					%			TEU					%			TEU					%
Total purchases			11,053				100	%			690				100	%			52				100	%			11,795				100	%
Less disposals			5,439				49	%			634				92	%			9				17	%			6,082				52	%
Remaining fleet at December 31, 2010			5,614				51	%			56				8	%			43				83	%			5,713				48	%

     Upon the liquidation of CCC’s interest in the Partnership, CCC shall contribute to the Partnership, if necessary, an amount equal to the lesser of the deficit balance in its capital account at the time of such liquidation, or 1.01% of the excess of the Limited Partners’ capital contributions to the Partnership over the capital contributions previously made to the Partnership by CCC, after giving effect to the allocation of income or loss arising from the liquidation of the Partnership’s assets.

     Market & Industry Overview

     Demand for container equipment depends largely on world trade levels and the rate of economic growth, both of which are driven primarily by consumer demand.

     The world economy entered a period of recovery in 2010, as the rate of growth in world output returned largely to pre-recessionary levels. The revival in world trade has been well received by the shipping sector with all major container lines expected to report profits in 2010.

     The combined effects of increased trade volumes on major trade routes, the practice of slow steaming employed by many of the shipping lines (to conserve fuel), the reduction in the size of the global container fleet in 2009, and the capital constraints experienced by many shipping lines have placed greater reliance on leasing companies. Demand for leased containers strengthened throughout 2010, as trade volumes increased and shipping lines responded to the improved market by leasing increased quantities of containers. Lease rates have remained relatively stable as equipment has been leased out under existing contractual terms. Leasing companies have also reported a corresponding

decline in direct operating expenses, particularly inventory-related expenses, as off-hire container volumes have declined in line with the improved market.

     During 2010, the secondary market demand for used containers remained favorable. Higher utilization levels not only contributed to a reduction in container inventories, but also a corresponding decrease in the volume of containers available for sale and an increase in container sale prices. Future proceeds and the volume of containers disposed will be highly dependent on factors such as the performance of the container leasing market, regional economics, currency fluctuations, new equipment prices and the volume of new equipment entering the market place.

     The Partnership’s average fleet size and utilization rates for each of the last three years were as follows:

		2010				2009				2008
Fleet size (measured in TEUs)
Dry cargo containers			5,982				7,191				8,181
Refrigerated containers			74				161				310
Tank containers			48				51				51
Utilization rates for combined fleet
Average for the period			92	%			81	%			94	%
At end of period			97	%			81	%			91	%

Year Ended December 31, 2010 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2009

Overview

     Net income for 2010 was $449,805, or 532%, higher than in 2009. The primary reasons for the change in profitability were:

	•		The Partnership experienced stronger market conditions for leased containers;
	•		Depreciation expense declined in line with the reduction in fleet size as the Partnership continued to sell equipment that had reached the end of its useful economic life for maritime leasing; and
	•		The gain recorded upon the sale of container equipment increased 104% when compared to the prior year due to lower net book values at the time of disposal and higher proceeds per container as a result of the more favorable secondary market conditions in 2010.

Analysis & Discussion

     Net lease revenue declined by $3,284 compared to the prior year. The decline was primarily due to:

•

a $225,280, or 17%, reduction in gross lease revenue as a direct result of the reduction in fleet size. This is particularly attributable to the Partnership’s dry cargo container fleet which declined by 16% year on year;

This was partially offset by:

•

a $206,051, or 49%, decrease in direct operating expenses as a result of the increase in utilization and corresponding decline in inventories of off-hire equipment, which resulted in a reduction in both activity-related and inventory-related expenses.

     Depreciation expense amounted to $727,497 in 2010, a decrease of $216,878, or 23%, when compared to 2009, as a direct result of the Partnership’s declining fleet size.

     Other general and administrative expenses amounted to $124,910 in 2010, an increase of $13,458 or 12% when compared to 2009. This increase was primarily attributable to higher fees for third-party investor administrative services and audit services.

     Net gain on disposal of equipment for 2010 was $498,431, compared to $239,762 during 2009. During 2010, the Partnership disposed of 771 containers, compared to 891 containers during 2009. The increase in the net gain was due in part to the combined effect of lower net book values for containers sold in 2010 compared to those sold in 2009, and an increase in the proceeds realized per container.

Year Ended December 31, 2009 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2008

Overview

     Net income for 2009 was $219,066, or 72%, lower than in 2008. Net income for 2009 included the impact of:

	•		a 16% reduction in the size of the container fleet (measured in TEUs) as equipment that was off-hired was sold;
	•		a decline in the levels of net lease revenues, resulting from the combined effect of the reduction in the size of the fleet, lower utilization and lease per-diem levels, and increased direct operating expenses; and
	•		a decrease in depreciation expense as a result of the declining fleet size.

Analysis & Discussion

     Net lease revenue declined $702,797, or 44%, compared to the prior year. The decline was primarily due to:

	•		a $695,308 reduction in gross lease revenue, of which approximately 47% was attributable to a reduction in the size of the Partnership’s fleet and 53% was attributable to the combined effect of both lower utilization rates and dry cargo container per-diem rental rates; and
	•		a $92,368 increase in direct operating expenses as both activity-related and inventory-related expenses increased in line with the level of containers off-hired by the shipping lines.

     Depreciation expense amounted to $944,375 in 2009, a decrease of $329,319, or 26%, when compared to 2008, a direct result of the Partnership’s declining fleet size.

     Other general and administrative expenses amounted to $111,452 in 2009, a decrease of $30,916 or 22% when compared to 2008. This was primarily attributable to lower professional fees for audit services and third-party investor administrative services.

     Net gain on disposal of equipment for 2009 was $239,762, compared to $111,011 during 2008. During 2009, the Partnership disposed of 891 containers, compared to 740 containers during 2008. The increase in the net gain was due in part to the combined effect of lower net book values for containers sold in 2009 compared to those sold in 2008, and an increase in the volumes of containers sold as a direct result of shipping lines redelivering containers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Distributions are paid monthly. Distributions may be affected by periodic increases or decreases to working capital reserves, as deemed appropriate by CCC. Cash distributions from operations are allocated 5% to CCC and 95% to the limited partners. Distributions of sales proceeds are allocated 1% to CCC and 99% to the limited partners. This sharing arrangement will remain in place until the limited partners have received aggregate distributions in an amount equal to their capital contributions plus an 8% cumulative, compounded (daily) annual return on their adjusted capital contributions. Thereafter, all distributions will be allocated 15% to CCC and 85% to the limited partners, pursuant to Section 6.1(b) of the Partnership Agreement.

     From inception through February 28, 2011, the Partnership distributed, $27,379,523 in cash from operations and $6,511,686 in cash from container sales proceeds to its limited partners. This represents total distributions of $33,891,209 or 106% of the limited partners’ original invested capital. The liquidation of the Partnership’s remaining containers will be the primary factor influencing the future level of cash generated from operating, investing and financing activities and the level of distributions from operations and sales proceeds to its partners in subsequent periods.

     At December 31, 2010, the Partnership had $849,761 in cash, an increase of $199,095 from cash balances at December 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2010, the Partnership held its cash on deposit in an operating bank account. The General Partner has reviewed the investment strategy for the Partnership’s cash balances and will invest cash in short-term, interest bearing accounts as opportunities arise. At December 31,

2010, the Partnership had an additional $30,000 working capital reserve for estimated expenses relating to the ultimate sale of its remaining containers, final liquidation of its remaining assets and subsequent dissolution.

     Cash from Operating Activities: Net cash provided by operating activities, primarily generated by net lease revenue receipts, was $783,457 during 2010, compared to $923,893 and $1,570,540 in 2009 and 2008, respectively.

     Cash from Investing Activities: Net cash provided by investing activities was $985,678 during 2010, compared to $1,175,881 and $1,181,848 during 2009 and 2008, respectively. These amounts represent sales proceeds generated from the sale of container rental equipment.

     Cash from Financing Activities: Net cash used in financing activities was $1,570,040 during 2010, compared to $2,335,289 and $2,697,367 during 2009 and 2008, respectively. These amounts represent distributions to the Partnership’s general and limited partners.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

     At December 31, 2010, the Partnership did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements and did not have any such arrangements during the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Contractual Obligations

     As of December 31, 2010, the Partnership did not have any contractual obligations within the meaning of Item 303 of the SEC’s Regulation S-K, such as long-term debt obligations, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, purchase obligations, or other long-term liabilities under generally accepted accounting principles.

Critical Accounting Policies

     Container equipment – depreciable lives: The Partnership’s container rental equipment is depreciated over a 15-year life using the straight-line basis to a residual value of 10% of the original equipment cost. The Partnership and CCC evaluate the period of depreciation and residual values to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives.

     Container equipment – valuation: The Partnership and CCC review container rental equipment when changes in circumstances require consideration as to whether the carrying value of the equipment has become impaired, pursuant to guidance established in ASC 360-10-35 — “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. The Partnership and CCC consider assets to be impaired if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the future projected cash flows from related operations (undiscounted and without interest charges). If impairment is deemed to exist, the assets are written down to fair value. An analysis projecting future cash flows from container rental equipment operations is prepared when indicators, such as material changes in market conditions, are present. Indicators of a potential impairment include a sustained decrease in utilization or operating profitability, or indications of technological obsolescence. The primary variables utilized in the analysis are current and projected utilization rates, per-diem rental rates, direct operating expenses, fleet size, container disposal proceeds and the timing of container disposals. Additionally, the Partnership evaluates future cash flows and potential impairment for its entire fleet rather than for container type or each individual container. As a result, future losses could result for individual container dispositions due to various factors, including age, condition, suitability for continued leasing, as well as the geographical location of containers when disposed.

     Allowance for doubtful accounts: The Leasing Agent continually tracks the Partnership’s credit exposure to each of the lessees of the Partnership’s containers using specialist third-party credit information services and reports prepared by its local staff to assess credit quality. The Leasing Agent’s credit committee, which oversees the performance of existing customers, meets quarterly to analyze the performance and to recommend actions taken in order to minimize credit risk. The Leasing Agent derives an allowance for doubtful accounts reflecting specific amounts provided against known probable losses plus an additional amount based on historical loss experience. However, the Partnership may be subject to an unexpected loss in net lease revenue resulting from lessees of its containers that default under their container lease agreements with the Leasing Agent.

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted During the Period

     On July 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-20, disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. This ASU amends Accounting Standards Codification Topic 310, Receivables, and requires expanded disclosures about the credit quality of an entity’s loan, lease and other financing receivables and its related allowance for credit losses. The purpose of the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses is to provide financial statement users more information to understand an entity’s exposure to credit losses and how the allowance relates to that exposure. The disclosures will help investors assess credit risk in a company’s receivables portfolios and the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. The disclosures are effective as of the end of a reporting period for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The Partnership adopted FASB ASU No. 2010-20 on December 1, 2010, and the adoption did not have impact the Partnership’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Inflation

     The Partnership believes inflation has not had a material adverse effect on the results of its operations.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     Exchange rate risk: In 2010, approximately 92% of the gross lease revenues billed by the Leasing Agent on behalf of the Group, or on behalf of other third-party container owners, including the Partnership, were billed and paid in US dollars, and approximately 46% of direct operating expenses were incurred and paid in US dollars. Of the 54% non-US dollar direct operating expenses, the Leasing Agent estimates these are individually small, unpredictable and were incurred in varying denominations. Thus, the Leasing Agent determined such amounts are not suitable for cost-effective hedging.

     In 2010, 12% of container disposals were billed and paid in non-US dollar currencies. The Leasing Agent considers that such sales are individually small, unpredictable, are transacted in a variety of currencies and as such are unsuitable for cost-effective hedging.

     As exchange rates are outside the control of the Partnership and Leasing Agent, there can be no assurance that such fluctuations will not adversely affect the Partnership’s results of operations and financial condition.

     Credit risk: The Leasing Agent sets maximum credit limits for all of the Partnership’s customers, limiting the number of containers leased to each according to established credit criteria. The Leasing Agent continually tracks its credit exposure to each customer. The Leasing Agent’s credit committee meets quarterly to analyze the performance of the Partnership’s customers and to recommend actions to be taken in order to minimize credit risks. The Leasing Agent uses specialist third-party credit information services and reports prepared by local staff to assess credit quality.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Partners
Cronos Global Income Fund XVI, L.P.
San Francisco, California

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Cronos Global Income Fund XVI, L.P. (the “Partnership”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, partners’ capital, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

	(a)		Nature of Operations
			Cronos Global Income Fund XVI, L.P. (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership that was organized under the laws of the State of California on September 1, 1995, for the purpose of owning and leasing dry and specialized marine cargo containers to ocean carriers. The Partnership commenced operations on March 29, 1996, when the minimum subscription proceeds of $2,000,000 were received from over 100 subscribers (excluding from such count, Pennsylvania residents, Cronos Capital Corp. (“CCC” or the “General Partner”), and all affiliates of CCC). On February 3, 1997, CCC suspended the offer and sale of units in the Partnership. The offering terminated on December 27, 1997, at which time 1,599,667 limited partnership units had been sold. The Partnership shall continue until December 31, 2015, unless terminated sooner upon the occurrence of certain events.
			CCC and its affiliate, Cronos Containers Limited (the “Leasing Agent”), manage the business of the Partnership. CCC and the Leasing Agent also manage the container leasing business for other partnerships affiliated with CCC.
			The Partnership has entered into its 16th year of operations and in is the liquidation phase, wherein CCC focuses its attention on the retirement of the remaining equipment in the Partnership’s container fleet. At December 31, 2010, approximately 48% of the original equipment remained in the Partnership’s fleet. CCC will take several factors into consideration when examining options for the timing of the disposal of the containers. These factors include the level of gross lease revenue generated by the diminishing fleet, the level of costs relative to this revenue, projected disposal proceeds on the disposition of the Partnership’s containers, overall market conditions and any foreseeable changes in other general and administrative expenses. During the first half of 2011, CCC may distribute a request for proposal (“RFP”) to prospective third-party container buyers. A RFP would seek to determine any interest such parties may have in purchasing the remaining containers owned by the Partnership. CCC will not make a decision relating to the final liquidation of the Partnership until any such proposals have been received and fully evaluated. If a decision is made to liquidate the Partnership, the distribution of cash from operations or sales proceeds may be suspended while the liquidation of the remaining containers in the fleet is evaluated. This is to ensure that sufficient cash reserves will be available for expenses relating to the final liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Partnership. CCC would make one or more liquidating distributions to the Limited Partners on or before the termination of the Partnership, or reinstate the monthly cash distributions should no decision be made to liquidate the fleet in 2011.
			The Partnership’s operations depend on global economic and political conditions. The Partnership believes that the profitability and risk profile of leases with foreign customers are generally the same as those with domestic customers. The majority of the Partnership’s leases generally require all payments to be made in US dollars.
	(b)		Cronos Ltd.
			Cronos Ltd. (the “Parent Company”), a Bermuda exempted company, is the parent of CCC, the General Partner of the Partnership. On July 28, 2010, Cronos consummated several transactions with investment funds affiliated with Kelso & Company, L.P. (collectively “Kelso”), a private equity firm based in New York. Pursuant to these transactions, Kelso acquired a majority interest in Cronos through a newly-organized holding company, Cronos Holding Company Ltd. (“Cronos” or the “Ultimate Holding Company”), also a Bermuda exempted company.
			In connection with the transactions with Kelso, Dennis J. Tietz retired as a director of CCC. Messrs. Younger, Vaughan, and Kallas remain as directors of CCC.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

	(c)		Leasing Agent
			The Partnership and the Leasing Agent have entered into an agreement (the “Leasing Agent Agreement”) whereby the Leasing Agent manages the leasing operations for all equipment owned by the Partnership. In addition to responsibility for leasing and re-leasing the equipment to ocean carriers, the Leasing Agent disposes of the containers at the end of their useful economic life and has full discretion over which ocean carriers and suppliers of goods and services it may deal with. The Leasing Agent Agreement permits the Leasing Agent to use the containers owned by the Partnership, together with other containers owned or managed by the Leasing Agent and its affiliates, as part of a single fleet operated without regard to ownership. The Leasing Agent Agreement generally provides that the Leasing Agent will make payments to the Partnership based upon rentals collected from ocean carriers after deducting direct operating expenses and management fees due both to CCC and the Leasing Agent.
			The Leasing Agent leases containers to ocean carriers, generally under operating leases which are either master leases or term leases. Master leases do not specify the exact number of containers to be leased or the term that each container will remain on hire but allow the ocean carrier to pick up and drop off containers at various locations, and rentals are charged and recognized based upon the number of containers used and the applicable per-diem rate. Accordingly, rentals under master leases are all variable and contingent upon the number of containers used.
			Term leases are for a fixed quantity of containers for a fixed period of time, typically varying from three to seven years. In most cases, containers cannot be returned prior to the expiration of the lease. Term lease agreements may contain early termination penalties that apply in the event of early redelivery. Term leases provide greater revenue stability to the lessor, usually at lower lease rates than master leases. Ocean carriers use term leases to lower their operating costs when they have a need for an identified number of containers for a specified term. Rentals under term leases are charged and recognized based upon the number of containers leased, the applicable per-diem rate and the length of the lease, irrespective of the number of days which the customer actually uses the containers.
			Direct financing leases are long-term in nature, usually ranging from three to seven years, and require relatively low levels of customer service. They ordinarily require fixed payments over a defined period and provide customers with an option to purchase the subject containers at the end of the lease term. Per-diem rates include an element of repayment of capital and therefore are usually higher than rates charged under either term or master leases.
	(d)		Concentrations of Credit Risk
			The Partnership’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and net lease receivables due from the Leasing Agent.
			Net lease receivables due from the Leasing Agent (see notes 1(c) and 4 for discussion regarding net lease receivables) subject the Partnership to a significant concentration of credit risk. The net lease receipts, represent rentals collected from ocean carriers after deducting payments for direct operating expenses and management fees, are remitted by the Leasing Agent to the Partnership on a weekly basis.
	(e)		Basis of Accounting
			The Partnership’s accounting records are maintained in US dollars and the financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

Notes to Financial Statements

(1)

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

	(f)		Use of Estimates
			The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. The most significant estimates relate to the carrying value of equipment including estimates relating to depreciable lives, residual values and asset impairments. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
	(g)		Allocation of Net Income or Loss, Partnership Distributions and Partners’ Capital
			Net income or loss has been allocated between general and limited partners in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership Agreement generally provides that CCC shall at all times maintain at least a 1% interest in each item of income or loss, including the net gain arising from the sale of containers. The Partnership Agreement further provides that the gain arising from the sale of containers be allocated first to the partners with capital account deficit balances in an amount sufficient to eliminate any deficit capital account balance. Thereafter, the Partnership’s gains arising from the sale of containers are allocated to the partners in accordance with their share of sale proceeds distributed. The Partnership Agreement also provides for income (excluding the gain arising from the sale of containers) for any period, be allocated to CCC in an amount equal to that portion of CCC’s distributions in excess of 1% of the total distributions made to both CCC and the limited partners of the Partnership for such period, as well as other allocation adjustments.
			Actual cash distributions differ from the allocations of net income or loss between the general and limited partners as presented in these financial statements. Partnership distributions are paid to its partners from distributable cash from operations, allocated 95% to the limited partners and 5% to CCC. Distributions of sales proceeds are allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to CCC. The allocations remain in effect until such time as the limited partners have received from the Partnership aggregate distributions in an amount equal to their capital contributions plus an 8% cumulative, compounded (daily), annual return on their adjusted capital contributions. Thereafter, all Partnership distributions will be allocated 85% to the limited partners and 15% to CCC. Cash distributions from operations to CCC in excess of 5% of distributable cash will be considered an incentive fee and will be recorded as compensation to CCC, with the remaining distributions from operations charged to partners’ capital.
			Upon dissolution, the assets of the Partnership will be sold and the proceeds thereof distributed as follows: (i) all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to persons other than CCC or the limited partners shall be paid and discharged; (ii) all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to CCC and the limited partners shall be paid and discharged; and (iii) the balance of such proceeds shall be distributed to CCC and the limited partners in accordance with the positive balances of CCC and the limited partners’ capital accounts. CCC shall contribute to the Partnership, if necessary, an amount equal to the lesser of the deficit balance in its capital account at the time of such liquidation, or 1.01% of the excess of the limited partners’ capital contributions to the Partnership over the capital contributions previously made to the Partnership by CCC, after giving effect to the allocation of income or loss arising from the liquidation of the Partnership’s assets.
	(h)		Acquisition Fees
			Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, acquisition fees paid to CCC were based on 5% of the equipment purchase price. These fees were capitalized and included in the cost of the container rental equipment.

Notes to Financial Statements

(1)

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

	(i)		Container Rental Equipment
			Container rental equipment is depreciated over a 15-year life using the straight-line basis to a residual value of 10% of the original equipment cost. The Partnership and CCC evaluate the period of depreciation and residual values to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives.
			In accordance with ASC 360-10-35 — “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, container rental equipment is considered to be impaired if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the expected future cash flows from related operations (undiscounted and without interest charges). If impairment is deemed to exist, the assets are written down to fair value. An analysis of projected future cash flows from container operations is prepared annually or upon material changes in market conditions. The primary variables utilized by the analysis are current and projected utilization rates, per-diem rental rates, direct operating expenses, fleet size, container disposal proceeds and the timing of container disposals.
			Additionally, the Partnership evaluates future cash flows and potential impairment for its entire fleet rather than for each container type or individual container. As a result, future losses could result for individual container dispositions due to various factors, including age, condition, suitability for continued leasing, as well as the geographical location of containers when disposed.
	(j)		Income Taxes
			The Partnership is not subject to income taxes, consequently no provision for income taxes has been made. The Partnership files federal and state annual information tax returns, prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. Taxable income or loss is reportable by the partners individually.
	(k)		New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted During the Period
			On July 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-20, disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. This ASU amends Accounting Standards Codification Topic 310, Receivables, and requires expanded disclosures about the credit quality of an entity’s loan, lease and other financing receivables and its related allowance for credit losses. The purpose of the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses is to provide financial statement users more information to understand an entity’s exposure to credit losses and how the allowance relates to that exposure. The disclosures will help investors assess credit risk in a company’s receivables portfolios and the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. The disclosures are effective as of the end of a reporting period for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The Partnership adopted FASB ASU No. 2010-20 on December 1, 2010, and the adoption did not have impact the Partnership’s financial position, result of operations or cash flows.

Notes to Financial Statements

(2)		Operating Segment
		An operating segment is a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the enterprise’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and about which separate financial information is available. CCC and the Leasing Agent operate the Partnership’s container fleet as a homogeneous unit and have determined that as such, it has a single reportable operating segment.
		The Partnership derives revenues from dry cargo containers, refrigerated containers and tank containers that are used by its customers in global trade routes. As of December 31, 2010, the Partnership owned dry cargo and specialized container equipment, comprising:

Containers		Quantity (Units)
Dry Cargo — 20-Foot			1,510
Dry Cargo — 40-Foot			723
Dry Cargo — 40-Foot High-Cube			1,329
Refrigerated — 20-Foot			6
Refrigerated — 40-Foot High-Cube			25
Tanks			43

A summary of gross lease revenue earned by each Partnership container type for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 follows:

		2010				2009				2008
Dry cargo containers		$	1,000,105			$	1,150,647			$	1,663,728
Refrigerated containers			92,012				190,501				356,450
Tank containers			142,901				149,150				165,428
Total		$	1,235,018			$	1,490,298			$	2,185,606

		Due to the Partnership’s lack of information regarding the physical location of its container fleet while on lease in the global shipping trade, the Partnership believes that it does not possess discernible geographic reporting segments.
		The Partnership does not believe that its ongoing business is dependent upon a single customer of the Leasing Agent, although the loss of one or more of the Leasing Agent’s customers could have an adverse effect upon its business.

The following lessees of the Leasing Agent each generated 10% or more of the gross lease revenue earned on the Partnership’s equipment during 2010. Mediterranean Shipping Company S.A. (“MSC”) generated approximately 20%, or $243,771 of gross lease revenue, and Hapag-Lloyd AG generated approximately 13%, or $157,417 of gross lease revenue. During 2009, MSC generated approximately 16%, or $236,007 of gross lease revenue, and Hapag-Lloyd AG generated approximately 14%, or $201,975 of gross lease revenue. During 2008, MSC generated approximately 12%, or $252,228 of gross lease revenue, and Hapag-Lloyd AG generated approximately 11%, or $235,336 of gross lease revenue.

Notes to Financial Statements

(3)		Cash
		At December 31, 2010, the Partnership held its cash on deposit in an operating bank account. The Partnership will review its investment strategy for cash balances on a periodic basis. Cash at December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $849,761 and $650,666, respectively.
(4)		Net Lease Receivables Due from Leasing Agent
		Net lease receivables at December 31, 2010 and 2009 comprised:

		December 31,				December 31,
		2010				2009
Gross lease receivables		$	367,051			$	391,120
Less:
Direct operating payables and accrued expenses			77,823				155,879
Base management fees payable			18,309				18,860
Reimbursable administrative expenses			5,072				6,873
Allowance for doubtful accounts			22,884				27,184
Net lease receivables due from Leasing Agent		$	242,963			$	182,324

		Included within the amount of gross lease receivables are $44,997 and $115,220 in respect of amounts owed by the Leasing Agent in relation to the disposal of containers for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
		For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, $2,001 and $1,761 were recorded as doubtful debt expense in relation to trade receivables. In addition, $6,301 and $17,402 were written-off for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
(5)		Direct Financing Lease Receivables Due from Leasing Agent
		The Leasing Agent, on behalf of the Partnership, entered into direct financing lease agreements that included bargain purchase options. The Partnership classified the agreements as direct financing leases and has recorded direct financing lease receivables. The underlying equipment had previously been classified as container rental equipment. At December 31, 2010, the minimum future lease rentals under these direct financing leases, net of unearned income were:

		Gross Direct				Unearned Direct				Net Minimum Future
		Financing Lease				Financing				Direct Financing
		Receivable				Lease Income				Lease Rentals
2011		$	46,668			$	23,191			$	23,477
2012			35,540				12,939				21,601
2013			24,203				4,510				19,693
2014			5,163				357				4,806
Total		$	111,574			$	40,997			$	69,577
