CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this Form 10-Q of Wells Real Estate Fund VI, L.P. (the Partnership) other than historical facts may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such statements include, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies, and prospects and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, as well as known and unknown risks, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated. Therefore, such statements are not intended to be a guarantee of our performance in future periods. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as may, will, expect, intend, anticipate, estimate, believe, continue, or other similar words. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date this report is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Neither the Partnership nor the general partners make any representations or warranties (expressed or implied) about the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from any forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q, and we do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Any such forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors and are based on a number of assumptions involving judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive, and market conditions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately. To the extent that our assumptions differ from actual results, our ability to meet such forward-looking statements, including our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations; provide distributions to limited partners; and maintain the value of our real estate properties, may be significantly hindered. Following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those presented in certain forward-looking statements:
General economic risks
| | Adverse changes in general economic conditions or local conditions; |
| | Adverse economic conditions affecting the particular industry of one or more of our tenants; |
Real estate risks
| | Our ability to achieve appropriate occupancy levels resulting in sufficient rental amounts; |
| | Supply of or demand for similar or competing rentable space, which may adversely impact our ability to retain or obtain new tenants at lease expiration at acceptable rental amounts; |
| | Tenant ability or willingness to satisfy obligations relating to our existing lease agreements; |
| | Our potential need to fund tenant improvements, lease-up costs, or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flow; |
| | Increases in property operating expenses, including property taxes, insurance, and other costs at our properties; |
| | Our ability to secure adequate insurance at reasonable and appropriate rates to avoid uninsured losses or losses in excess of insured amounts; |
Page 2
| | Discovery of previously undetected environmentally hazardous or other undetected adverse conditions at our properties; |
| | Unexpected costs of capital expenditures related to tenant build-out projects or other unforeseen capital expenditures; |
| | Our ability to sell a property when desirable at an acceptable return, including the ability of the purchaser to satisfy any continuing obligations to us; |
Other operational risks
| | Our dependency on Wells Capital, Inc., the corporate general partner of one of our General Partners, its key personnel, and its affiliates for various administrative services; |
| | Wells Capital, Inc.s ability to attract and retain high-quality personnel who can provide acceptable service levels to us and generate economies of scale for us over time; |
| | Increases in our administrative operating expenses, including increased expenses associated with operating as a public company; |
| | Changes in governmental, tax, real estate, environmental, and zoning laws and regulations and the related costs of compliance; |
| | Our ability to prove compliance with any governmental, tax, real estate, environmental, and zoning in the event that any such position is questioned by the respective authority; and |
| | Actions of our joint venture partners including potential bankruptcy, business interests differing from ours, or other actions that may adversely impact the operations of joint ventures. |

| 1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| (a) | Organization and Business |
Wells Real Estate Fund VI, L.P. (the Partnership) is a Georgia public limited partnership having Leo F. Wells, III and Wells Partners, L.P. (Wells Partners), a Georgia nonpublic limited partnership, as its general partners (collectively, the General Partners). The Partnership was formed on December 1, 1992, for the purpose of acquiring, developing, constructing, owning, operating, improving, leasing, and managing income-producing commercial or industrial properties for investment purposes. The Partnership has two classes of limited partnership interests, Class A and Class B Units. The limited partners have the right to change their prior elections to have some or all of their units treated as Class A Units or Class B Units one time every five years and may vote to, among other things, (a) amend the partnership agreement, subject to certain limitations; (b) change the business purpose or investment objectives of the Partnership; and (c) add or remove a general partner. A majority vote on any of the above-described matters will bind the Partnership without the concurrence of the General Partners. Each limited partnership unit generally has equal voting rights regardless of class.
On April 5, 1993, the Partnership commenced a public offering of up to its limited partnership units pursuant to a Registration Statement filed on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933. The offering was terminated on April 4, 1994, at which time the Partnership had sold approximately 1,933,218 Class A Units and 566,782 Class B Units representing capital contributions of $25,000,000 from investors who were admitted to the Partnership as limited partners.
The Partnership owns interests in all of its real estate assets through joint ventures with other Wells Real Estate Funds. During the periods presented, the Partnership owned interests in the following eight properties through the affiliated joint ventures listed below (the Joint Ventures):
