ICON Equipment and Corporate Infrastructure Fund Fourteen, L.P.
(A Delaware Limited Partnership)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2017
(unaudited)


(1)
Organization
ICON Equipment and Corporate Infrastructure Fund Fourteen, L.P. (the “Partnership”) was formed on August 20, 2008 as a Delaware limited partnership. When used in these notes to consolidated financial statements, the terms “we,” “us,” “our” or similar terms refer to the Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries.
 
We engaged in one business segment, the business of investing in business-essential equipment and corporate infrastructure (collectively, “Capital Assets”), including, but not limited to, Capital Assets that were already subject to lease, Capital Assets that we purchased and leased to domestic and international businesses, loans secured by Capital Assets and ownership rights to leased Capital Assets at lease expiration. 
 
Our general partner is ICON GP 14, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “General Partner”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ICON Capital, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ICON Capital”). Our General Partner manages and controls our business affairs, including, but not limited to, our investments in Capital Assets. Our General Partner has engaged ICON Capital as our investment manager (the “Investment Manager”) to, among other things, facilitate the acquisition and servicing of our investments. 
 
Our operating period commenced on May 19, 2011 and ended on May 18, 2016. On May 19, 2016, we commenced our liquidation period, during which we have sold and will continue to sell our assets and/or let our investments mature in the ordinary course of business.

On May 30, 2017, our Investment Manager retained ABN AMRO Securities (USA) LLC (“ABN AMRO”) as its financial advisor to assist our Investment Manager and us in identifying, evaluating and executing a potential sale of certain shipping and offshore energy assets currently included within our investment portfolio. We, however, cannot assure that the identification or evaluation to be performed will result in any specific sale transaction or series of transactions.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
Our accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. In the opinion of our General Partner, all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  These consolidated financial statements should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
 
Restricted Cash
Cash that is restricted from use in operations is generally classified as restricted cash. Classification of changes in restricted cash within the consolidated statements of cash flows depends on the predominant source of the related cash flows. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the predominant cash generated from restricted cash was related to the release of restricted cash sourced from rental receipts associated with our leasing operations that was previously restricted pursuant to certain provisions in the applicable non-recourse long-term debt agreements. As a result, this change in restricted cash was classified within cash flows from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Credit Quality of Notes Receivable and Finance Leases and Credit Loss Reserve
Our Investment Manager monitors the ongoing credit quality of our financing receivables by (i) reviewing and analyzing a borrower’s financial performance on a regular basis, including review of financial statements received on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis as prescribed in the loan or lease agreement, (ii) tracking the relevant credit metrics of each financing receivable and a borrower’s compliance with financial and non-financial covenants, (iii) monitoring a borrower’s payment history and public credit rating, if available, and (iv) assessing our exposure based on the current investment mix. As part of the monitoring process, our Investment Manager may physically inspect the collateral or a borrower’s facility and meet with a borrower’s management to better understand such borrower’s financial performance and its future plans on an as-needed basis.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2017

As our financing receivables, generally notes receivable and finance leases, are limited in number, our Investment Manager is able to estimate the credit loss reserve based on a detailed analysis of each financing receivable as opposed to using portfolio-based metrics. Our Investment Manager does not use a system of assigning internal risk ratings to each of our financing receivables. Rather, each financing receivable is analyzed quarterly and categorized as either performing or non-performing based on certain factors including, but not limited to, financial results, satisfying scheduled payments and compliance with financial covenants. A financing receivable is usually categorized as non-performing only when a borrower experiences financial difficulties and has failed to make scheduled payments. Our Investment Manager then analyzes whether the financing receivable should be placed on a non-accrual status, a credit loss reserve should be established or the financing receivable should be restructured. As part of the assessment, updated collateral value is usually considered and such collateral value can be based on a third party industry expert appraisal or, depending on the type of collateral and accessibility to relevant published guides or market sales data, internally derived fair value. Material events would be specifically disclosed in the discussion of each financing receivable held. 
 
Financing receivables are generally placed on a non-accrual status when payments are more than 90 days past due. Additionally, our Investment Manager periodically reviews the creditworthiness of companies with payments outstanding less than 90 days and based upon our Investment Manager’s judgment, these accounts may be placed on a non-accrual status.
 
In accordance with the cost recovery method, payments received on non-accrual financing receivables are applied to principal if there is doubt regarding the ultimate collectability of principal. If collection of the principal of non-accrual financing receivables is not in doubt, interest income is recognized on a cash basis. Financing receivables on non-accrual status may not be restored to accrual status until all delinquent payments have been received, and we believe recovery of the remaining unpaid receivable is probable.
 
When our Investment Manager deems it is probable that we will not be able to collect all contractual principal and interest on a non-performing financing receivable, we perform an analysis to determine if a credit loss reserve is necessary. This analysis considers the estimated cash flows from the financing receivable, and/or the collateral value of the asset underlying the financing receivable when financing receivable repayment is collateral dependent. If it is determined that the impaired value of the non-performing financing receivable is less than the net carrying value, we will recognize a credit loss reserve or adjust the existing credit loss reserve with a corresponding charge to earnings. We then charge off a financing receivable in the period that it is deemed uncollectible by reducing the credit loss reserve and the balance of the financing receivable.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-05, Derivatives and Hedging: Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships (“ASU 2016-05”), which clarifies that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as a hedging instrument does not, in and of itself, require de-designation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. We adopted ASU 2016-05 on January 1, 2017, which did not have an effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In March 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-07, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures: Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting (“ASU 2016-07”), which eliminates the retroactive adjustments to an investment upon it qualifying for the equity method of accounting as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence by the investor. ASU 2016-07 requires that the equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment qualifies for equity method accounting. We adopted ASU 2016-07 on January 1, 2017, which did not have an effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-17, Consolidation (“ASU 2016-17”), which amends the consolidation guidance on how a reporting entity that is the single decision maker of a variable interest entity should treat indirect interests in such entity held by related parties that are under common control with the reporting entity when determining whether it is the primary beneficiary of that variable interest entity. Under ASU 2016-17, a single decision maker is not required to consider indirect interests held by related parties that are under common control with the single decision maker to be the equivalent of direct interests in their entirety. We adopted ASU 2016-17 on January 1, 2017, which did not have an effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Other Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), requiring revenue to be recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for goods and services. This new revenue standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented, or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. In August 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers  Deferral of the Effective Date (“ASU 2015-14”), which defers implementation of ASU 2014-09 by one year. Under such deferral, the adoption of ASU 2014-09 becomes effective for us on January 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted, but not before our original effective date of January 1, 2017. Our evaluation of the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements is ongoing and our implementation efforts have included the identification of revenue within the scope of the guidance and the evaluation of applicable revenue contracts. We continue to evaluate the timing of recognition of various revenue; however, since a substantial portion of our revenue is recognized from our leasing contracts, which is subject to ASU 2016-02 (as defined below), such revenue is excluded from our evaluation of ASU 2014-09.
 
In January 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU 2016-01”), which provides guidance related to accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, FASB clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 becomes effective for us on January 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-01 on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms greater than twelve months on the balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 implements changes to lessor accounting focused on conforming with certain changes made to lessee accounting and the recently released revenue recognition guidance. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 becomes effective for us on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. Based on our preliminary assessment, most, if not all, of our leases are subject to lessor accounting and the accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under current U.S. GAAP. We continue to evaluate the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”), which modifies the measurement of credit losses by eliminating the probable initial recognition threshold set forth in current guidance, and instead reflects an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. An entity will apply the amendments within ASU 2016-13 through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 becomes effective for us on January 1, 2020, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”), which provides guidance on how certain cash receipts and cash payments are to be presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 becomes effective for us on January 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. An entity will apply the amendments within ASU 2016-15 using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-15 on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (“ASU 2016-18”), which provides guidance on the presentation of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. The adoption of ASU 2016-18 becomes effective for us on January 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. An entity will apply the amendments within ASU 2016-18 using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-18 on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (“ASU 2017-01”), which clarifies the definition of a business. ASU 2017-01 sets forth requirements to be met for a set to be deemed a business and establishes a practical way to determine when a set is not a business. To be considered a business, a set must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create an output, and removes the evaluation of whether a market participant could replace missing elements. In addition, ASU 2017-01 narrows the definition of outputs and aligns such definition with how outputs are described within the revenue guidance. The adoption of ASU 2017-01 becomes effective for us on January 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted for transactions that occur before the issuance date or effective date of ASU 2017-01 to the extent that such transactions have not been reported in financial statements that have been issued or made available for issuance. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2017-01 on our consolidated financial statements.

Net Investment in Notes Receivable
As of June 30, 2017, we had investment in notes receivable on non-accrual status of $36,894,036, of which $33,393,546 had been reserved. As of December 31, 2016, we had investment in notes receivable on non-accrual status of $33,393,546, which had been fully reserved.
 
As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our note receivable related to Jurong Aromatics Corporation Pte. Ltd. (“JAC”) totaled $33,393,546, which had been fully reserved. On December 22, 2011, a joint venture owned 75% by us and 25% by ICON Leasing Fund Twelve Liquidating Trust (formerly, ICON Leasing Fund Twelve, LLC) (“Fund Twelve”), an entity also managed by our Investment Manager, made a $20,124,000 subordinated term loan to JAC as part of a $171,050,000 term loan facility. The loan initially bore interest at rates ranging between 12.5% and 15% per year and matures in January 2021. As a result of JAC’s failure to make an expected payment that was due to the joint venture during the three months ended March 31, 2015, the interest rate payable by JAC under the loan increased from 12.5% to 15.5%. The loan is secured by a second priority security interest in all of JAC’s assets, which include, among other things, all equipment, plant and machinery associated with a condensate splitter and aromatics complex.

During 2015, JAC experienced liquidity constraints as a result of a general economic slow-down in China and India, which led to lower demand from such countries, as well as the price decline of energy and other commodities. As a result, JAC’s manufacturing facility ceased operations and JAC was not able to service interest payments under the loan. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, an expected tolling arrangement with JAC’s suppliers that would have allowed JAC’s manufacturing facility to resume operations did not commence as originally anticipated. Accordingly, our Investment Manager determined that there was doubt regarding our ultimate collectability of the loan. Commencing with the three months ended June 30, 2015, our Investment Manager placed the loan on non-accrual status, ceased recognizing finance income and began recording credit losses. Subsequently, discussions among the senior lenders and certain other stakeholders of JAC regarding a restructuring plan ended as the senior lenders did not agree to amendments to their credit facilities as part of the broader restructuring that was being contemplated. As a result, JAC entered receivership on September 28, 2015. In July 2016, the tolling arrangement was implemented and the manufacturing facility resumed operations. Although JAC's manufacturing facility has resumed operations, no debt payments have been made or are expected to be made by JAC to us while operating under the tolling arrangement. As part of the tolling arrangement and the receivership process, JAC incurred additional senior debt, which could be up to $55,000,000, to fund its operations as well as any receivership-related costs. As a result, as of June 30, 2016, our Investment Manager determined that we should fully reserve the outstanding balance of the loan due from JAC. During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Receiver formally commenced the process of marketing JAC's manufacturing facility for sale. Our Investment Manager continues to closely monitor the operations of JAC, the receivership process and the sale process of the manufacturing facility through regular communications with the Receiver and certain other stakeholders. We did not recognize any finance income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our net investment in note receivable related to JAC was $0.

As of June 30, 2017, our net investment in note receivable and accrued interest related to four affiliates of Técnicas Maritimas Avanzadas, S.A. de C.V. (collectively, “TMA”) totaled $3,500,490 and $1,064,668, respectively, of which an aggregate of $1,807,471 was over 90 days past due. As of December 31, 2016, our net investment in note receivable and accrued interest related to TMA totaled $3,500,490 and $953,389, respectively, of which an aggregate of $1,380,312 was over 90 days past due. TMA has been in technical default due to its failure to cause all four platform supply vessels to be under contract by March 31, 2015 and in payment default while available cash has been swept by the senior lender and applied to the senior tranche of the facility (the "Senior Loan") in accordance with the secured term loan credit facility agreement. As a

result, the principal balance of the Senior Loan was paid down at a faster rate. In January 2016, the remaining two previously unchartered vessels had commenced employment. Based on, among other things, TMA’s payment history and estimated collateral value as of June 30, 2017, our Investment Manager believes it is likely that all outstanding principal and accrued interest under our tranche of the facility (the "ICON Loan") as of June 30, 2017 are collectible. However, our Investment Manager believes it is prudent to place the note receivable on non-accrual status during the three months ended June 30, 2017. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our share of the collateral value, net of the balance of the Senior Loan, was estimated to be approximately $1,900,000 and $800,000, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we recognized finance income of $0 and $111,279, respectively, of which no amount was recognized on a cash basis. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, we recognized finance income of $124,296 and $252,673, respectively, of which no amount was recognized on a cash basis.

Vessel
On July 14, 2016, we entered the Shamrock (f/k/a the Center) into a pooling arrangement, Stena Sonangol Suezmax Pool LLC (the "Stena Pooling Arrangement"), with other crude oil tankers owned by unaffiliated third parties. The term of the pooling arrangement is for at least 12 months, after which the time charter and participation of the vessel in the pool may be terminated by either party at any time. As part of the Stena Pooling Arrangement, we are entitled to receive a monthly distribution, calculated on a time charter equivalent basis, whereby net pool earnings are allocated to each pool participant according to an agreed upon formula based on, among other things, the number of days a vessel operates in the pool and other technical characteristics, such as speed and fuel consumption. The Stena Pooling Arrangement also includes a shortfall provision that will require us to pay back a portion of the monthly distribution received upon certain criteria being met if we remove the vessel from the pool. The shortfall provision expires on July 14, 2018. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the total amount subject to the shortfall provision of $2,509,333 and $1,467,325, respectively, was recognized as deferred revenue on our consolidated balance sheets. Monthly distributions, net of the amount subject to the shortfall provision, are recognized as pool revenue on our consolidated statements of operations.

Depreciation expense was $526,035 and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Depreciation expense was $1,052,070 and $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Investment in Joint Ventures
 
On December 19, 2011, a joint venture owned 40% by us and 60% by ICON ECI Fund Fifteen, L.P. ("Fund Fifteen"), an entity also managed by our Investment Manager, agreed to purchase an offshore support vessel, the AMC Ambassador (f/k/a the Lewek Ambassador), from Ezram LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ezra Holdings Limited ("Ezra"). The joint venture entered into a bareboat charter with Gallatin Marine Management, LLC ("Gallatin") for a period of nine years to commence on the delivery date of the vessel. Gallatin's obligations under the bareboat charter are guaranteed by Ezra. The vessel was delivered on June 4, 2012 and the purchase price was set at $24,869,000. The joint venture financed the purchase price through

10

a combination of related party notes payable, non-recourse long-term debt and equity. In May 2016, Gallatin began paying its monthly charter payments late and all charter payments ceased since the payment due in December 2016. In December 2016, Ezra hired a restructuring advisor. In January 2017, our Investment Manager was informed that, following a deterioration of Ezra’s and its affiliated companies’ financial condition during the fourth quarter of 2016, payments under the bareboat charter could no longer be reasonably expected to be made. On February 6, 2017, EMAS Chiyoda Subsea Limited (“EMAS”), the time charterer of the vessel, filed a petition in Singapore to wind up and liquidate the company. In addition, Ezra may become subject to a winding up order in Singapore. On February 27, 2017, both Gallatin and EMAS commenced voluntary Chapter 11 proceedings in the Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of Texas. On March 7, 2017, Gallatin and EMAS filed a motion with the bankruptcy court to reject the bareboat and time charters. On March 18, 2017, Ezra commenced a voluntary Chapter 11 proceeding in the Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of New York. Consequently, as of December 31, 2016, our Investment Manager assessed the joint venture’s collectability of the finance lease based on the estimated fair market value of the vessel provided by an independent third party appraiser. As a result, the joint venture recorded a credit loss of $7,271,958 to write down its net investment in finance lease related to the vessel to $8,000,000. We were only allocated $1,306,625 of such credit loss as our investment in the joint venture was written down to zero. During the three months ended December 31, 2016, the joint venture placed the lease on non-accrual status and ceased to recognize finance income.

In April 2017, the bankruptcy court approved the motion filed by Gallatin and EMAS to reject the bareboat and time charters with an effective date of March 12, 2017. As a result, the bareboat and time charters were deemed terminated as of such date. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the joint venture repossessed the AMC Ambassador. Our Investment Manager is currently seeking new charter proposals to re-employ the vessel as well as exploring a potential sale of the vessel. As part of this process, the joint venture obtained an updated third-party appraisal for the vessel, which provided an estimated fair value for the vessel that was below its net book value. As a result, the joint venture recorded an additional impairment loss of $2,000,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2017, of which no impairment loss was allocated to us as our investment in the joint venture was previously written down to zero.

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our total net investment in joint venture related to the AMC Ambassador was $0. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the joint venture recognized finance income of $156,975, which was recognized on a cash basis. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the joint venture recognized finance income of $481,964 and $981,370, respectively, of which no amount was recognized on a cash basis.

On June 12, 2014, a joint venture owned 12.5% by us, 75% by Fund Twelve and 12.5% by Fund Fifteen purchased an offshore supply vessel from Pacific Crest Pte. Ltd. (“Pacific Crest”) for $40,000,000. Simultaneously, the vessel was bareboat chartered to Pacific Crest for ten years. The vessel was acquired for approximately $12,000,000 in cash, $26,000,000 of financing through a senior secured loan from DVB Group Merchant Bank (Asia) Ltd. (“DVB”) and $2,000,000 of financing through a subordinated, non-interest-bearing seller’s credit.

In July 2017, Pacific Crest failed to make its monthly charter payment and our Investment Manager was advised that Pacific Crest is engaged in discussions with its lenders regarding a potential restructuring of its outstanding debt obligations. As a result, the joint venture performed an impairment test on the vessel. Based on such test, the joint venture recorded an impairment loss of $14,661,525, of which we were only allocated $1,758,641 of such impairment loss during the three months ended June 30, 2017 as our investment in the joint venture was written down to zero.

All of our non-recourse long-term debt obligations consist of notes payable in which the lender has a security interest in the underlying assets. If the borrower was to default on the underlying lease or loan, resulting in our default on the non-recourse long-term debt, the assets could be foreclosed upon and the proceeds would be remitted to the lender in extinguishment of that debt. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the total carrying value of assets subject to non-recourse long-term debt was $66,129,875 and $67,607,658, respectively.
 
As of June 30, 2017, we were in compliance with the covenants related to our non-recourse long-term debt.

At June 30, 2017, we had a net receivable of $30,332 due from our General Partner and affiliates, which primarily consisted of administrative expense reimbursements due from our Investment Manager. At December 31, 2016, we had a net payable of $204,430 due to our General Partner and affiliates, which primarily consisted of administrative expense reimbursements due to our Investment Manager.
 
We have a note receivable from a joint venture related to the AMC Ambassador. As of June 30, 2017, the outstanding balance of the note receivable was $494,930, net of an aggregate credit loss reserve of $2,349,051. As of December 31, 2016, the outstanding balance of the note receivable was $1,329,483, net of an aggregate credit loss reserve of $1,514,498. During the three months ended December 31, 2016, the joint venture wrote down its net investment in finance lease (see Note 6). As a result, our Investment Manager assessed the collectability of the note receivable due from the joint venture by considering the fair market value of the vessel and the balance of the joint venture’s non-recourse long-term debt associated with the vessel, which has priority over our related party note receivable. A credit loss reserve of $1,514,498 was recorded based on such assessment and the related party note receivable was placed on non-accrual status during the three months ended December 31, 2016. Our Investment Manager reassessed the collectability of the note receivable at each reporting date using the same approach and due to a decrease in the fair market value of the vessel, we recorded an additional credit loss

No interest income was recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 as the note receivable was placed on non-accrual status during the three months ended December 31, 2016. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, we recognized interest income of $102,221 and $204,590, respectively, of which no amount was recognized on a cash basis. The interest income is included in finance income on our consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value Measurements
Assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
 
·   Level 1: Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
·   Level 2: Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
·   Level 3: Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable and are supported by little or no market data.
 
Assets for which Fair Value is Disclosed
 
Our fixed-rate notes receivable, for which fair value is required to be disclosed, were valued using inputs that are generally unobservable and are supported by little or no market data and are therefore classified within Level 3. Under U.S. GAAP, we use projected cash flows for fair value measurements of these financial assets. Fair value information with respect to certain of our other assets and liabilities is not separately provided since (i) U.S. GAAP does not require fair value disclosures of lease arrangements and (ii) the carrying value of financial assets and liabilities, other than lease-related investments, approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities and/or variable interest rates.
 
The estimated fair value of our fixed-rate notes receivable was based on the discounted value of future cash flows related to the loans at inception, adjusted for changes in certain variables, including, but not limited to, credit quality, industry, financial markets and other recent comparables. The fair value of the principal outstanding on fixed-rate notes receivable was derived using discount rates ranging between 8.0% and 25.9% as of June 30, 2017.

(10) Commitments and Contingencies
At the time we acquire or divest our interest in Capital Assets, we may, under very limited circumstances, agree to indemnify the seller or buyer for specific contingent liabilities. Our General Partner believes that any liability of ours that may arise as a result of any such indemnification obligations may or may not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole. In addition, at times we may seek to enforce our rights under a personal guaranty in order to collect amounts from the guarantor that are owed to us by a defaulting borrower or lessee. Gain contingencies may arise from enforcement of such guaranty, but are not recognized until realizable. We are currently seeking to recover a judgment issued in our favor against a guarantor covering amounts owed to us related to a secured term loan to Kanza Construction, Inc. (“Kanza”).
 
On September 27, 2016, we commenced a legal proceeding against Center Navigation Ltd. (“Center Navigation”) and Geden Holdings Ltd. (“Geden”) seeking monetary damages incurred as a result of their failure to meet their payment and performance obligations under the charter and guaranty, respectively, related to the Center. 
 
In connection with certain debt obligations, we are required to maintain restricted cash balances with certain banks. At June 30, 2017, we had restricted cash of $1,334,657.

Overview
 
We operated as an equipment leasing and finance fund in which the capital our partners invested was pooled together to make investments in Capital Assets, pay fees and establish a small reserve. During our offering period from May 18, 2009 to May 18, 2011, we raised total equity of $257,646,987. Our operating period commenced on May 19, 2011. We invested a substantial portion of the proceeds from the sale of our limited partnership interests ("Interests") in Capital Assets. After these proceeds were invested, additional investments were made with the cash generated from our initial investments to the extent that cash was not used for our expenses, reserves and distributions to limited partners. The investment in additional Capital Assets in this manner is called “reinvestment.” We invested and reinvested in Capital Assets from time to time during our five-year operating period. Our operating period ended on May 18, 2016 and our liquidation period commenced on May 19, 2016. During our liquidation period, we have sold and will continue to sell our assets and/or let our investments mature in the ordinary course of business.

On May 30, 2017, our Investment Manager retained ABN AMRO as its financial advisor to assist our Investment Manager and us in identifying, evaluating and executing a potential sale of certain shipping and offshore energy assets currently included within our investment portfolio. We, however, cannot assure that the identification or evaluation to be performed will result in any specific sale transaction or series of transactions.
    
Our General Partner manages and controls our business affairs, including, but not limited to, our investments in Capital Assets, under the terms of our limited partnership agreement. Our Investment Manager, an affiliate of our General Partner, originated and services our investments. 

Recent Significant Transactions
 
We engaged in the following significant transactions since December 31, 2016:

Subsequent Event
On July 21, 2017, Blackhawk satisfied its remaining lease obligations by making a prepayment of $7,753,666. As a result, the joint venture recognized finance income of approximately $353,000, of which our share was approximately $53,000.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-05, Derivatives and Hedging: Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships, which we adopted on January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2016-05 did not have an effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-07, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures: Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting, which we adopted on January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2016-07 did not have an effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-17, Consolidation, which we adopted on January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2016-17 did not have an effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Other Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In August 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers  Deferral of the Effective Date, which defers implementation of ASU 2014-09 by one year. ASU 2014-09 will become effective for us on January 1, 2018. Our evaluation of the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements is ongoing and our implementation efforts have included the identification of revenue within the scope of the guidance and the evaluation of applicable revenue contracts. We continue to evaluate the timing of recognition of various revenue; however, since a substantial portion of our revenue is recognized from our leasing contracts, which is subject to ASU 2016-02, such revenue is excluded from our evaluation of ASU 2014-09.

In January 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which will become effective for us on January 1, 2018. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-01 on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which will become effective for us on January 1, 2019. Based on our preliminary assessment, most, if not all, of our leases are subject to lessor accounting and the accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under current U.S. GAAP. We continue to evaluate the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which will become effective for us on January 1, 2020. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which will become effective for us on January 1, 2018. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-15 on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows, which will become effective for us on January 1, 2018. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-18 on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations, which will become effective for us on January 1, 2018. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2017-01 on our consolidated financial statements.

We do not believe any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Non-performing Assets within Financing Transactions

As of June 30, 2016, the net carrying value of our finance leases related to Geden was $21,000,000. We had three leases with Geden and they were placed on non-accrual status during the three months ended June 30, 2013. As a result, finance income was recognized on a cash basis. As our Investment Manager believed that Geden may have been unable to fully satisfy its remaining lease payment obligations and fulfill its purchase obligations at lease expiration, we recorded credit losses related to two of the vessels, the Amazing and the Fantastic, commencing with the three months ended December 31, 2014 based on our quarterly assessments. With respect to the Center, our Investment Manager determined that no credit loss reserve was required through December 31, 2015.

In April 2016, our Investment Manager was informed by Geden that it intended to return the three vessels to us prior to lease expiration and that it would not be fulfilling its purchase obligations with respect to the three vessels. As a result, our Investment Manager determined to record credit losses of $4,804,077, $4,641,478 and $396,762 related to the Amazing, the Fantastic and the Center, respectively, during the three months ended March 31, 2016 based primarily on the then current fair market value of the vessels.

On June 17, 2016, the Center was redelivered to us by Geden and the charter was terminated. Upon redelivery, the vessel was dry-docked until early July 2016, after which we renamed the vessel "Shamrock" and placed it into service for at least

17


12 months by participating in the Stena Pooling Arrangement. Upon redelivery of the vessel to us, we reclassified the Center from net investment in finance leases to vessel on our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016 at the then fair market value of $48,000,000.  Upon reclassification, U.S. GAAP requires that we record the vessel at the lower of the present carrying value or the present fair market value. Due to the decrease in the fair market value of the Center, we recognized an additional credit loss of $6,546,754 during the 2016 Quarter, net of the forfeiture of the $9,000,000 seller’s credit that was no longer payable to Geden as a result of Geden’s default on the charter.

On July 5, 2016, the Amazing and the Fantastic were also redelivered to us by Geden and the charters were terminated. Upon redelivery, the vessels were renamed "Bulk Progress" and "Bulk Power", respectively, and were bareboat chartered to Americas Bulk Transport (BVI) Limited (“Americas Bulk”) for five years. During the 2016 Quarter, we recognized a reversal of an aggregate credit loss of $6,800,000 related to the Amazing and the Fantastic based on their then fair market values as of June 30, 2016.

During the 2016 Quarter, we did not recognize any finance income related to the three vessels as the leases were already considered impaired.

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our note receivable related to JAC totaled $33,393,546, which had been fully reserved. On December 22, 2011, a joint venture owned 75% by us and 25% by Fund Twelve made a $20,124,000 subordinated term loan to JAC as part of a $171,050,000 term loan facility. The loan initially bore interest at rates ranging between 12.5% and 15% per year and matures in January 2021. As a result of JAC’s failure to make an expected payment that was due to the joint venture during the three months ended March 31, 2015, the interest rate payable by JAC under the loan increased from 12.5% to 15.5%. The loan is secured by a second priority security interest in all of JAC’s assets, which include, among other things, all equipment, plant and machinery associated with a condensate splitter and aromatics complex.

During 2015, JAC experienced liquidity constraints as a result of a general economic slow-down in China and India, which led to lower demand from such countries, as well as the price decline of energy and other commodities. As a result, JAC’s manufacturing facility ceased operations and JAC was not able to service interest payments under the loan. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, an expected tolling arrangement with JAC’s suppliers that would have allowed JAC’s manufacturing facility to resume operations did not commence as originally anticipated. Accordingly, our Investment Manager determined that there was doubt regarding our ultimate collectability of the loan. Commencing with the three months ended June 30, 2015, our Investment Manager placed the loan on non-accrual status, ceased recognizing finance income and began recording credit losses. Subsequently, discussions among the senior lenders and certain other stakeholders of JAC regarding a restructuring plan ended as the senior lenders did not agree to amendments to their credit facilities as part of the broader restructuring that was being contemplated. As a result, JAC entered receivership on September 28, 2015. In July 2016, the tolling arrangement was implemented and the manufacturing facility resumed operations. Although JAC's manufacturing facility has resumed operations, no debt payments have been made or are expected to be made by JAC to us while operating under the tolling arrangement. As part of the tolling arrangement and the receivership process, JAC incurred additional senior debt, which could be up to $55,000,000, to fund its operations as well as any receivership-related costs. As a result, as of June 30, 2016, our Investment Manager determined that we should fully reserve the outstanding balance of the loan due from JAC. During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Receiver formally commenced the process of marketing JAC's manufacturing facility for sale. Our Investment Manager continues to closely monitor the operations of JAC, the receivership process and the sale process of the manufacturing facility through regular communications with the Receiver and certain other stakeholders. We did not recognize any finance income for the 2017 Quarter and the 2016 Quarter. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our net investment in note receivable related to JAC was $0.

Total revenue and other income for the 2017 Quarter decreased $13,218,622, or 98.7%, as compared to the 2016 Quarter. The decrease was primarily due to (i) a gain on sale of subsidiaries recorded during the 2016 Quarter from the sale of our interests in ICON AET Holdings, LLC ("ICON AET") and ICON Exopack, LLC ("ICON Exopack") with no comparable gain recorded during the 2017 Quarter, (ii) a decrease in rental income as a result of the sale of our interests in ICON AET and ICON Exopack, partially offset by rental income recognized on new operating leases that we entered into with Americas Bulk in July 2016, (iii) loss from investment in joint ventures in the 2017 Quarter due primarily to the impairment loss recorded by our joint venture related to Pacific Crest during the 2017 Quarter as opposed to income from investment in joint ventures during the 2016 Quarter and (iv) a gain on sale of investment in joint ventures recorded during the 2016 Quarter due to the sale of our interests in ICON Hoegh, LLC and ICON Challenge, LLC with no comparable gain recorded during the 2017 Quarter. The decrease was partially offset by pool revenue recognized in connection with net earnings derived from placing the Shamrock in the Stena Pooling Arrangement since July 2016.

Total expenses for the 2017 Quarter decreased $6,400,316, or 61.3%, as compared to the 2016 Quarter. The decrease in total expenses was primarily due to decreases in (i) credit loss due to the credit loss recorded related to the Center and JAC, partially offset by a reversal of the credit loss related to the Amazing and the Fantastic, all in the 2016 Quarter, as opposed to the credit loss recorded related to the note receivable from our joint venture during the 2017 Quarter, (ii) interest expense primarily due to the assumption and repayment of our debt obligations upon the sale of interests of ICON AET and partial repayments of our debt obligations related to the three vessels previously on lease to Geden, (iii) depreciation due to the sale of interests of ICON AET and ICON Exopack in June 2016, partially offset by depreciation recorded on the three vessels redelivered to us by Geden, which we redeployed in July 2016 and (iv) general and administrative expenses primarily due to lower legal, audit and bank fees recorded in the 2017 Quarter as compared to the 2016 Quarter, as well as a non-recurring property tax payment recorded in the 2016 Quarter. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in vessel operating expenses related to the Shamrock, which was redelivered to us and then placed in the Stena Pooling Arrangement commencing in July 2016.

Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests 
 
Net (loss) income attributable to noncontrolling interests changed by $1,077,258, from a net income of $1,074,552 in the 2016 Quarter to a net loss of $2,706 in the 2017 Quarter. The change was primarily due to no income recognized related to ICON AET following the sale of our interests in such joint venture in June 2016, partially offset by no credit loss recorded on our consolidated joint venture related to JAC in the 2017 Quarter.
 
Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Fund Fourteen 
 
As a result of the foregoing factors, net (loss) income attributable to us for the 2017 Quarter and the 2016 Quarter was $(3,858,090) and $1,882,958, respectively. Net (loss) income attributable to us per weighted average Interest outstanding for the 2017 Quarter and the 2016 Quarter was $(14.76) and $7.20, respectively.

Non-performing Assets within Financing Transactions
 
As of June 30, 2016, the net carrying value of our finance leases related to Geden was $21,000,000. We had three leases with Geden and they were placed on non-accrual status during the three months ended June 30, 2013. As a result, finance income was recognized on a cash basis. As our Investment Manager believed that Geden may have been unable to fully satisfy its remaining lease payment obligations and fulfill its purchase obligations at lease expiration, we recorded credit losses related to two of the vessels, the Amazing and the Fantastic, commencing with the three months ended December 31, 2014

20


based on our quarterly assessments. With respect to the Center, our Investment Manager determined that no credit loss reserve was required through December 31, 2015.

In April 2016, our Investment Manager was informed by Geden that it intended to return the three vessels to us prior to lease expiration and that it would not be fulfilling its purchase obligations with respect to the three vessels. As a result, our Investment Manager determined to record credit losses of $4,804,077, $4,641,478 and $396,762 related to the Amazing, the Fantastic and the Center, respectively, during the three months ended March 31, 2016 based primarily on the then current fair market value of the vessels.

On June 17, 2016, the Center was redelivered to us by Geden and the charter was terminated. Upon redelivery, the vessel was dry-docked until early July 2016, after which we renamed the vessel "Shamrock" and placed it into service for at least 12 months by participating in the Stena Pooling Arrangement. Upon redelivery of the vessel to us, we reclassified the Center from net investment in finance leases to vessel on our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016 at the then fair market value of $48,000,000. Upon reclassification, U.S. GAAP requires that we record the vessel at the lower of the present carrying value or the present fair market value. Due to the decrease in the fair market value of the Center, we recognized an additional credit loss of $6,943,516 during the 2016 Quarter, net of the forfeiture of the $9,000,000 seller’s credit that was no longer payable to Geden as a result of Geden’s default on the charter.

On July 5, 2016, the Amazing and the Fantastic were also redelivered to us by Geden and the charters were terminated. Upon redelivery, the vessels were renamed "Bulk Progress" and "Bulk Power", respectively, and were bareboat chartered to Americas Bulk for five years. During the 2016 Quarter, we recognized a reversal of an aggregate credit loss of $6,800,000 related to the Amazing and the Fantastic based on their then fair market values as of June 30, 2016.

During the 2016 Period, we did not recognize any finance income related to the three vessels as the leases were already considered impaired.

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our note receivable related to JAC totaled $33,393,546, which had been fully reserved. On December 22, 2011, a joint venture owned 75% by us and 25% by Fund Twelve made a $20,124,000 subordinated term loan to JAC as part of a $171,050,000 term loan facility. The loan initially bore interest at rates ranging between 12.5% and 15% per year and matures in January 2021. As a result of JAC’s failure to make an expected payment that was due to the joint venture during the three months ended March 31, 2015, the interest rate payable by JAC under the loan increased from 12.5% to 15.5%. The loan is secured by a second priority security interest in all of JAC’s assets, which include, among other things, all equipment, plant and machinery associated with a condensate splitter and aromatics complex.

During 2015, JAC experienced liquidity constraints as a result of a general economic slow-down in China and India, which led to lower demand from such countries, as well as the price decline of energy and other commodities. As a result, JAC’s manufacturing facility ceased operations and JAC was not able to service interest payments under the loan. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, an expected tolling arrangement with JAC’s suppliers that would have allowed JAC’s manufacturing facility to resume operations did not commence as originally anticipated. Accordingly, our Investment Manager determined that there was doubt regarding our ultimate collectability of the loan. Commencing with the three months ended June 30, 2015, our Investment Manager placed the loan on non-accrual status, ceased recognizing finance income and began recording credit losses. Subsequently, discussions among the senior lenders and certain other stakeholders of JAC regarding a restructuring plan ended as the senior lenders did not agree to amendments to their credit facilities as part of the broader restructuring that was being contemplated. As a result, JAC entered receivership on September 28, 2015. In July 2016, the tolling arrangement was implemented and the manufacturing facility resumed operations. Although JAC's manufacturing facility has resumed operations, no debt payments have been made or are expected to be made by JAC to us while operating under the tolling arrangement. As part of the tolling arrangement and the receivership process, JAC incurred additional senior debt, which could be up to $55,000,000, to fund its operations as well as any receivership-related costs. As a result, as of June 30, 2016, our Investment Manager determined that we should fully reserve the outstanding balance of the loan due from JAC. During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Receiver formally commenced the process of marketing JAC's manufacturing facility for sale. Our Investment Manager continues to closely monitor the operations of JAC, the receivership process and the sale process of the manufacturing facility through regular communications with the Receiver and certain other stakeholders. We did not recognize any finance income for the 2017 Period and the 2016 Period. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our net investment in note receivable related to JAC was $0.

Total revenue and other income for the 2017 Period decreased $16,963,884, or 88.0%, as compared to the 2016 Period. The decrease was primarily due to (i) a gain on sale of subsidiaries recorded during the 2016 Period from the sale of our interests in ICON AET and ICON Exopack with no comparable gain recorded during the 2017 Period, (ii) a decrease in rental income as a result of the sale of our interests in ICON AET and ICON Exopack, partially offset by rental income recognized on new operating leases that we entered into with Americas Bulk in July 2016 and (iii) loss from investment in joint ventures in the 2017 Period due primarily to the impairment loss recorded by our joint venture related to Pacific Crest during the 2017 Period as opposed to income from investment in joint ventures in the 2016 Period. The decrease was partially offset by pool revenue recognized in connection with net earnings derived from placing the Shamrock in the Stena Pooling Arrangement since July 2016.

Total expenses for the 2017 Period decreased $19,055,111, or 72.5%, as compared to the 2016 Period. The decrease in total expenses was primarily due to (i) the credit loss recorded during the 2016 Period related to the three vessels previously leased to Geden and related to JAC as opposed to the credit loss recorded related to the note receivable from our joint venture during the 2017 Period, (ii) a decrease in depreciation due to the sale of interests of ICON AET and ICON Exopack in June 2016, partially offset by depreciation recorded on the three vessels redelivered to us by Geden, which we redeployed in July 2016, (iii) a decrease in interest expense primarily due to the assumption and repayment of our debt obligations upon the sale

22


of interests of ICON AET and partial repayments of our debt obligations related to the three vessels previously on lease to Geden, (iv) the loss on derivative financial instruments recorded in the 2016 Period as our interest rate swaps were assumed by a third party purchaser as part of the sale of our interests in ICON AET in June 2016 and (v) a decrease in general and administrative expenses primarily due to lower legal, audit and bank fees recorded in the 2017 Period as compared to the 2016 Period, as well as a non-recurring property tax payment recorded in the 2016 Period. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in vessel operating expenses related to the Shamrock during the 2017 Period. 
 
Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
 
Net (loss) income attributable to noncontrolling interests changed by $1,236,024, from net income of $1,232,698 in the 2016 Period to a net loss of $3,326 in the 2017 Period. The change was primarily due to no income recognized related to ICON AET following the sale of our interests in such joint venture in June 2016, partially offset by no credit loss recorded on our consolidated joint venture related to JAC in the 2017 Period.
 
Net Loss Attributable to Fund Fourteen
 
As a result of the foregoing factors, net loss attributable to us for the 2017 Period and the 2016 Period was $4,893,520 and $8,220,771, respectively. The net loss attributable to us per weighted average Interest outstanding for the 2017 Period and the 2016 Period was $18.72 and $31.45, respectively.
 
Financial Condition
 
This section discusses the major balance sheet variances at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016.

Total Assets 
 
Total assets decreased $6,039,068, from $114,131,272 at December 31, 2016 to $108,092,204 at June 30, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to repayments on certain non-recourse long-term debt and depreciation of our leased equipment at cost and vessel.
 
Total Liabilities 
 
Total liabilities decreased $1,144,919, from $38,073,974 at December 31, 2016 to $36,929,055 at June 30, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to repayments on certain non-recourse long-term debt and certain of our previously accrued liabilities, partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue related to the Shamrock during the 2017 Period.
  
Equity 
 
Equity decreased $4,894,149, from $76,057,298 at December 31, 2016 to $71,163,149 at June 30, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to our net loss during the 2017 Period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Summary
 
At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $19,594,632 and $19,452,937, respectively. Pursuant to the terms of our offering, we have established a cash reserve in the amount of 0.50% of the gross offering proceeds from the sale of our Interests. As of June 30, 2017, the cash reserve was $1,288,235. During our operating period, our main source of cash was typically from operating activities and our main use of cash was in investing and financing activities. Our operating period ended on May 18, 2016 and our liquidation period commenced on May 19, 2016. Our liquidity will vary in the future, increasing to the extent cash flows from investments and proceeds from the sale of our investments exceed expenses and decreasing as we pay distributions to our partners and noncontrolling interests and to the extent that expenses exceed cash flows from operations and proceeds from the sale of our investments.

We believe that cash on hand and cash generated from the expected results of our operations will be sufficient to finance our liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future. However, our equipment financing business has encountered significant challenges over the past several years. Specifically, we continue to suffer from an unprecedented and prolonged weakness in global shipping and offshore markets.
 

23


Our ability to generate cash in the future is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other factors that affect us and our lessees’ and borrowers’ businesses that are beyond our control.

We have used the net proceeds of the offering and cash from operations to invest in Capital Assets located in North America, Europe and other developed markets, including those in Asia and elsewhere. We have sought to acquire a portfolio of Capital Assets that is comprised of transactions that (a) provide current cash flow in the form of payments of principal and/or interest (in the case of secured loans) and rental payments (in the case of leases), (b) generate deferred cash flow from realizing the value of Capital Assets or interests therein at the maturity of the investment or exercise of an option to purchase Capital Assets, or (c) provide a combination of both.

Cash Flows

Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities changed by $3,708,120, from a source of cash of $3,074,882 in the 2016 Period to a use of cash of $633,238 in the 2017 Period. The change was primarily related to (i) less cash generated from our investments in the 2017 Period due to certain prepayments by our borrowers and lessees and the sale of certain investments during or subsequent to the 2016 Period, (ii) less distributions received from our joint ventures and (iii) the timing of cash payments and cash receipts from period-to-period.    
Investing Activities 
Cash provided by investing activities decreased $64,428,214, from $66,875,450 in the 2016 Period to $2,447,236 in the 2017 Period.  The decrease was primarily due to (i) the proceeds received from the sale of certain subsidiaries and joint ventures in the 2016 Period with no comparable sales in the 2017 Period, (ii) less distributions received from joint ventures in excess of profits and (iii) the principal received on the finance lease related to the Center while it was on lease to Geden during the 2016 Period with no comparable principal received during the 2017 Period. The decrease was partially offset by higher principal received on notes receivable as a result of the prepayment by Asphalt during the 2017 Period.
Financing Activities 
Cash used in financing activities decreased $30,501,912, from $32,174,215 in the 2016 Period to $1,672,303 in the 2017 Period.  The decrease was primarily due to (i) no distributions paid to our noncontrolling interests and partners in the 2017 Period as opposed to $22,785,848 of distributions paid in the 2016 Period and (ii) a decrease in repayments on our non-recourse long-term debt, partially offset by proceeds from our revolving line of credit in the 2016 Period with no comparable borrowings in the 2017 Period.
Non-Recourse Long-Term Debt 
 As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our non-recourse long-term debt obligations were $33,608,322 and $35,185,385, respectively. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the total carrying value of assets subject to non-recourse long-term debt was $66,129,875 and $67,607,658, respectively.
 
As of June 30, 2017, we were in compliance with the covenants related to our non-recourse long-term debt.
Distributions 
We, at our General Partner’s discretion, paid monthly distributions to our limited partners beginning with the first month after each such limited partner’s admission and continued to pay such distributions until the termination of our operating period, which was May 18, 2016. We did not pay distributions to our General Partner, limited partners or noncontrolling interests during the 2017 Period. We expect that distributions paid during our liquidation period will vary, depending on the timing of the sale of our assets and/or the maturity of our investments, and our receipt of rental, finance and other income from our investments. 

Commitments and Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Transactions 
 
Commitments and Contingencies 
At the time we acquire or divest of an interest in Capital Assets, we may, under very limited circumstances, agree to indemnify the seller or buyer for specific contingent liabilities. Our General Partner believes that any liability of ours that may arise as a result of any such indemnification obligations may or may not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole. In addition, at times we may seek to enforce our rights under a

24


personal guaranty in order to collect amounts from the guarantor that are owed to us by a defaulting borrower or lessee. Gain contingencies may arise from enforcement of such guaranty, but are not recognized until realizable. We are currently seeking to recover a judgment issued in our favor against a guarantor covering amounts owed to us related to a secured term loan to Kanza.

On September 27, 2016, we commenced a legal proceeding against Center Navigation and Geden seeking monetary damages incurred as a result of their failure to meet their payment and performance obligations under the charter and guaranty, respectively, related to the Center.   

In connection with certain debt obligations, we are required to maintain restricted cash balances with certain banks. At June 30, 2017, we had restricted cash of $1,334,657.   

Off-Balance Sheet Transactions 
None.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2017, our General Partner carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the management of our General Partner, including its Co-Chief Executive Officers and the Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our General Partner’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on the foregoing evaluation, the Co-Chief Executive Officers and the Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that our General Partner’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
 
In designing and evaluating our General Partner’s disclosure controls and procedures, our General Partner recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.  Our General Partner’s disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet reasonable assurance standards. Disclosure controls and procedures cannot detect or prevent all error and fraud. Some inherent limitations in disclosure controls and procedures include costs of implementation, faulty decision-making, simple error and mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based, in part, upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all anticipated and unanticipated future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with established policies or procedures.  
 
Evaluation of internal control over financial reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
