Item 8.01 Other Events

On January 23, 2013, ICON Income Fund Nine, LLC (the "LLC") completed its liquidation and dissolution pursuant to a Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution (the “Plan”), which provided for the liquidation of the assets of, and the dissolution of, the LLC.

In furtherance of the Plan, the LLC entered into a Liquidating Trust Agreement (the “Liquidating Trust Agreement”) with ICON Capital, LLC, the Manager of the LLC, as managing trustee (the “Trustee”) of the ICON Income Fund Nine Liquidating Trust (the “Liquidating Trust”). As of January 23, 2013, each of the holders of shares of limited liability company interests in the LLC received a pro rata beneficial interest in the Liquidating Trust in exchange for such holder’s interest in the LLC.

In accordance with the Plan and the Liquidating Trust Agreement, the LLC has transferred all of its remaining cash and other assets and all of its remaining liabilities to the Liquidating Trust. Accordingly, a certificate of cancellation terminating the LLC’s legal existence was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on January 28, 2013.  In addition, the LLC’s public reporting obligations with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K) ceased effective January 29, 2013.

The Liquidating Trust succeeded to the reporting obligations of the LLC, and will continue to prepare and file with the SEC annual reports showing the assets and liabilities of the Liquidating Trust at the end of each calendar year and the receipts and disbursements of the Trustee with respect to the Liquidating Trust for the period and will describe the changes in the assets of the Liquidating Trust and the actions taken by the Trustee during the period.  The financial statements contained in the annual report will be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; however, the financial statements will not be audited by a registered public accounting firm.  The Liquidating Trust will also file current reports under cover of Form 8-K to disclose any material events required by such form.
