Letter from the CEOs                                                                                                            As of August 29, 2011


Dear investor in ICON Leasing Fund Twelve, LLC:

We write to briefly summarize our activity for the second quarter of 2011.  A more detailed analysis, which we encourage you to read, is contained in our Form 10-Q.  Our Form 10-Q and our other quarterly, annual, and current reports are available in the Investor Relations section of our website, www.iconinvestments.com.

As of June 30, 2011, Fund Twelve was in its operating period.  As of June 30th, Fund Twelve had invested $331,178,918 of equity in $698,837,1801 worth of business-essential equipment and corporate infrastructure.  We invested $8,287,552 in total equity in 20112.  Further, our distribution coverage ratio3 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was approximately 151.85%.  As of June 30th, Fund Twelve held $23,002,113 of capital available from its investments for future reinvestment and maintained a leverage ratio of .99:14.  During the second quarter of 2011, Fund Twelve collected 99.75%5 of all scheduled receivables, with the uncollected receivables relating to the machining and metal working equipment on lease to AMI Manchester, LLC.

In the second quarter of 2011, a lease for various innovative telecommunications voice transport systems and high capacity conferencing servers expired. The equipment was subject to lease with Global Crossing Telecommunications, Inc. (“Global Crossing”), an affiliate of Global Crossing Limited, a publicly traded company on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange and a leading global IP solutions provider.  On April 18, 2011, the equipment was sold to Global Crossing for the aggregate amount of approximately $1,188,000.  We received a gross cash-on-cash return of approximately 130% in rental and sale proceeds related to this investment.  Fund Twelve also entered into an agreement to sell certain automotive manufacturing equipment subject to lease with Sealynx Automotive Transieres SAS for the purchase price of €3,000,000.  The purchase price will be paid in three installments and will accrue interest at a rate of 5.5%. Fund Twelve will retain title to the equipment until the final payment is received on or before June 1, 2013.
 
We believe our portfolio is performing well and that there will continue to be many opportunities to deploy equity in well structured deals collateralized by business-essential equipment and corporate infrastructure.

We invite you to read through our portfolio overview on the pages that follow for a more detailed explanation of the above described investments.  As always, thank you for entrusting ICON with your investment assets.

Sincerely,

The Fund
 
We raised $347,686,947 commencing with our initial offering on May 7, 2007 through the closing of our offering on April 30, 2009.
 
Our operating period commenced on May 1, 2009, during which time we will continue to seek to finance equipment subject to lease or to structure financings secured primarily by equipment.  Cash generated from these investments is used to make distributions to our members.  Availability of cash to be used for reinvestment depends on the requirements for expenses, reserves and distributions to members.
 
Our operating period is anticipated to continue for a period of five years from the closing of the offering, unless extended at our Manager’s sole discretion.  Following our operating period, we will enter our liquidation period, during which time the leases and loans we own will mature or be sold in the ordinary course of business.

Our Manager performs certain services relating to the management of our equipment leasing and other financing activities.  Such services include, but are not limited to, the collection of lease payments from the lessees of the equipment or loan payments from borrowers, re-leasing services in connection with equipment which is off-lease, inspections of the equipment, liaising with and general supervision of lessees and borrowers to ensure that the equipment is being properly operated and maintained, monitoring performance by the lessees and borrowers of their obligations under the leases and loans, and the payment of operating expenses.
 
Administrative expense reimbursements are costs incurred by our Manager or its affiliates that are necessary to our operations.  These costs include our Manager’s and its affiliates’ legal, accounting, investor relations and operations personnel, as well as professional fees and other costs, that are charged to us based upon the percentage of time such personnel dedicate to us.  Excluded are salaries and related costs, office rent, travel expenses, and other administrative costs incurred by individuals with a controlling interest in our Manager.
 
Our Manager also has a 1% interest in our profits, losses, cash distributions and liquidation proceeds.  We paid distributions to our Manager in the amount of $84,867 and $169,828 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 respectively.  Additionally, our Manager’s interest in our net loss was $19,442 and $32,263 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 respectively.
