NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization and Limited Liability Company matters:

ATEL 14, LLC (the “Company” or the “Fund”) was formed under the laws of the state of California on April 1, 2009 (“Date of Inception”) for the purpose of equipment financing and acquiring equipment to engage in equipment leasing and sales activities. The Managing Member of the Company is ATEL Managing Member, LLC (the “Managing Member” or “Manager”), a Nevada limited liability company. Prior to May 9, 2011, the Manager was named ATEL Associates 14, LLC. The Managing Member is controlled by ATEL Financial Services, LLC (“AFS”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ATEL Capital Group. The Fund may continue until December 31, 2030. Contributions in the amount of $500 were received as of May 8, 2009, which represented the initial member’s capital investment. As a limited liability company, the liability of any individual member for the obligations of the Fund is limited to the extent of capital contributions to the Fund by the individual member.

The Company conducted a public offering of 15,000,000 Limited Liability Company Units (“Units”), at a price of $10 per Unit. As of December 2, 2009, subscriptions for the minimum number of Units (120,000, representing $1.2 million), excluding subscriptions from Pennsylvania investors, had been received and the Fund requested subscription proceeds to be released from escrow. On that date, the Company commenced initial operations and continued in its development stage activities until transitioning to an operating enterprise during the first quarter of 2010. Pennsylvania subscriptions are subject to a separate escrow and are released to the Fund only when aggregate subscriptions for all investors equal to at least $7.5 million. Total contributions to the Fund exceeded $7.5 million on February 12, 2010, at which time a request was processed to release the Pennsylvania escrowed amounts. The offering was terminated on October 6, 2011.

As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022, cumulative gross contributions, less rescissions and repurchases (net of distributions paid and allocated syndication costs, as applicable), totaling $83.5 million (inclusive of the $500 initial Member’s capital investment) have been received. As of the same date, 8,246,919 Units were issued and outstanding.

The Company’s principal objectives are to invest in a diversified portfolio of investments that will (i) preserve, protect and return the Company’s invested capital; (ii) generate regular cash distributions to Unitholders, with any balance remaining after required minimum distributions to be used to purchase additional investments during the Reinvestment Period (ending six calendar years after the completion of the Company’s public offering of Units) and (iii) provide additional cash distributions following the Reinvestment Period and until all investment portfolio assets has been sold or otherwise disposed. The Company is governed by the ATEL 14, LLC amended and restated Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement dated October 7, 2009 (the “Operating Agreement”). On January 1, 2018, the Company commenced liquidation phase activities pursuant to the guidelines of the Operating Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Operating Agreement, the Managing Member and/or its affiliates receives compensation for services rendered and reimbursements for costs incurred on behalf of the Company (Note 5). The Company is required to maintain reasonable cash reserves for working capital, the repurchase of Units and contingencies. The repurchase of Units is solely at the discretion of the Managing Member.

These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies:

Basis of presentation:

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (‘‘GAAP’’) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q as mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of the Managing Member, necessary for a fair statement of financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Footnote and tabular amounts are presented in thousands, except as to Units and per Unit data.

In preparing the accompanying financial statements, the Company has reviewed, as determined necessary by the Managing Member, events that have occurred after ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022, up until the issuance of the financial statements. No events were noted which would require disclosure in the footnotes to the financial statements.

Cash and cash equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and cash equivalent investments such as U.S. Treasury instruments with original and/or purchased maturities of ninety days or less.

Use of estimates:

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management 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 reporting period. Actual results could differ from the estimates. Such estimates primarily relate to the determination of residual values at the end of the lease term and expected future cash flows used for impairment analysis purposes and for determination of the allowances for doubtful accounts.

Segment reporting:

The Company is organized into one operating segment for the purpose of making operating decisions or assessing performance. Accordingly, the Company operates in one reportable operating segment in the United States.

The Company’s principal decision makers are the Managing Member’s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer. The Company believes that its equipment leasing business operates as one reportable segment because: a) the Company measures profit and loss at the equipment portfolio level as a whole; b) the principal decision makers do not review information based on any operating segment other than the equipment leasing transaction portfolio; c) the Company does not maintain discrete financial information on any specific segment other than its equipment financing operations; d) the Company has not chosen to organize its business around different products and services other than equipment lease financing; and e) the Company has not chosen to organize its business around geographic areas.

The primary geographic region in which the Company seeks leasing opportunities is North America. For the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020, and as of September 30,~~ 2021 ~~and December 31~~, ~~2020,~~ all of the Company’s current operating revenues and long-lived assets relate to customers domiciled in the United States.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Accounts receivable:

Accounts receivable represent the amounts billed under operating ~~and direct financing~~ lease contracts, ~~and notes receivable~~ which are currently due to the Company. Allowances for doubtful accounts are typically established based on historical charge off and collection experience and the collectability of specifically identified lessees and borrowers, and invoiced amounts. Accounts receivable deemed uncollectible are generally charged off against the allowance on a specific identification basis. Recoveries of amounts that were previously written-off are recorded as other income in the period received.

Investment in securities:

~~Purchased~~From time to time, the Company may receive the right to purchase securities of its borrowers or receive warrants in connection with its leading arrangement.

~~The~~Investment ~~Company’s purchased securities registered for public sale with readily determinable fair values are measured at fair value with any changes~~ in fair value recognized in the Company’s results of operations. The Company’s purchased securities that do not have readily determinable fair values are measured at cost minus impairment and adjusted for changes in observable prices. Factors considered by the Managing Member in determining fair value include, but are not limited to, available financial information, the issuer’s ability to meet its current obligations and indications of the issuer’s subsequent ability to raise capital. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, investments in equity securities totaled $134 thousand and $305 thousand, respectively. Such amounts included investment securities which do not have readily determinable market value totaling $125 thousand and $67 thousand at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

The Company’s ~~recorded~~equity ~~unrealized~~securities ~~losses~~registered ~~of $3 thousand and unrealized gains of $37 thousand~~ for ~~the~~public ~~three~~sale ~~months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, on securities~~ with readily determinable fair values. ~~For~~are ~~the~~measured nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company also recorded unrealized losses of $3 thousand and unrealized gains of $37 thousand, respectively, on such securities. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company had recorded unrealized gains totaling $57 thousand on its investment securities which do not have readily determinable fair values, all of which were recorded prior to the third quarter of 2021. There were no gains or losses recorded on such securities during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. Cumulative adjustments totaling $186 thousand have been recorded to reduce the value of such investment securities held at ~~September 30, 2021 based on changes in observable prices.~~

equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values are measured at cost minus impairment and

adjusted for changes in observable prices. Factors considered by the Managing Member in determining fair

value include, but are not limited to, available financial information, the issuer’s ability to meet its current

obligations and indications of the issuer’s subsequent ability to raise capital. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, equity securities totaled $130 thousand and $133 thousand, respectively. Such amounts included equity securities which do not have readily determinable market value totaling $125 thousand at both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded unrealized losses of $3 thousand and unrealized gains of $3 thousand, respectively, on equity securities with readily determinable fair values. There were no fair value adjustments on the Company’s remaining equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. Cumulative adjustments totaling $186 thousand have been recorded to reduce the value of such equity securities held at March 31, 2022 based on changes in observable prices.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Credit risk:

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk include cash and cash equivalents, operating and direct financing lease receivables, notes receivable and accounts receivable. The Company places the majority of its cash deposits in noninterest-bearing accounts with financial institutions that have no less than $10 billion in assets. Such deposits are insured up to $250 thousand. The remainder of the Funds’ cash is temporarily invested in U.S. Treasury denominated instruments. The concentration of such deposits and temporary cash investments is not deemed to create a significant risk to the Company. Accounts and notes receivable represent amounts due from lessees or borrowers in various industries, related to equipment on operating and direct financing leases or notes receivable.

Equipment on operating leases and related revenue recognition:

Equipment subject to operating leases is stated at cost. Depreciation is being recognized on a straight-line method over the terms of the related leases to the equipment’s estimated residual values. Off-lease equipment is generally not subject to depreciation. The Company depreciates all lease assets, in accordance with guidelines consistent with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-10-35-3, over the periods of the lease terms contained in each asset’s respective lease contract to the estimated residual value at the end of the lease contract. All lease assets are purchased only concurrent with the execution of a lease commitment by the lessee. Thus, the original depreciation period corresponds with the term of the original lease. Once the term of an original lease contract is completed, the subject property is typically sold to the existing user, re-leased to the existing user, or, when off-lease, is held for sale. Assets which are re-leased continue to be depreciated using the terms of the new lease agreements and the estimated residual values at the end of the new lease terms, adjusted downward as necessary. Assets classified as held-for-sale are carried at the lower of carrying amount, or the fair value less cost to sell (ASC 360-10-35-43).

The Company does not use the equipment held in its portfolio, but holds it solely for lease and ultimate sale. In the course of marketing equipment that has come off-lease, management may determine at some point that re-leasing the assets may provide a superior return for investors and would then execute another lease. Upon entering into a new lease contract, management will estimate the residual value once again and resume depreciation. If, and when, the Company, at any time, determines that depreciation in value may have occurred with respect to an asset held-for-sale, the Company would review the value to determine whether a material reduction in value had occurred and recognize any appropriate impairment. All lease assets, including off-lease assets, are subject to the Company’s quarterly impairment analysis, as described below. Maintenance costs associated with the Fund’s portfolio of leased assets are expensed as incurred. Major additions and betterments are capitalized.

Operating lease revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the underlying leases. The initial lease terms will vary as to the type of equipment subject to the leases, the needs of the lessees and the terms to be negotiated, but initial leases are generally on terms from 36 to 120 months. The difference between rent received and rental revenue recognized is recorded as unearned operating lease income on the balance sheet.

Operating leases are generally placed in a non-accrual status (i.e., no revenue is recognized) when payments are more than 90 days past due. Additionally, management considers the equipment underlying the lease contracts for impairment and periodically reviews the credit worthiness of all operating lessees with payments outstanding less than 90 days. Based upon management’s judgment, the related operating leases may be placed on non-accrual status. Leases placed on non-accrual status are only returned to an accrual status when the account has been brought current and management believes recovery of the remaining unpaid lease payments is probable. Until such time, revenues are recognized on a cash basis. Provisions for credit losses relating to operating leases are included in lease income in the Company’s financial statements.

Initial direct costs:

Incremental costs of a lease that would not have been incurred if the lease had not been obtained are capitalized and amortized over the lease term. All other costs associated with the execution of the Company’s leases are expensed as incurred.

Asset valuation:

Recorded values of the Company’s leased asset portfolio are reviewed each quarter to confirm the reasonableness of established residual values and to determine whether there is indication that an asset impairment might have taken place. The Company uses a variety of sources and considers many factors in evaluating whether the respective book values of its assets are appropriate. In addition, the company may direct a residual value review at any time if it becomes aware of issues regarding the ability of a lessee to continue to make payments on its lease contract. An impairment loss is measured and recognized only if the estimated undiscounted future cash flows of the asset are less than their net book value. The estimated undiscounted future cash flows are the sum of the residual value of the asset at the end of the asset’s lease contract and undiscounted future rents from the existing lease contract. The residual value assumes, among other things, that the asset is utilized normally in an open, unrestricted and stable market. Short-term fluctuations in the marketplace are disregarded and it is assumed that there is no necessity either to dispose of a significant number of the assets, if held in quantity, simultaneously or to dispose of the asset quickly. Impairment is measured as the difference between the fair value (as determined by a valuation method using discounted estimated future cash flows, third party appraisals or comparable sales of similar assets as applicable based on asset type) of the asset and its carrying value on the measurement date. Upward adjustments for impairments recognized in prior periods are not made in any circumstances.

Fair Value:

Fair value measurements and disclosures are based on a fair value hierarchy as determined by significant inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs within the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for the asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis, generally on a national exchange.

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in the market.

Level 3 – Valuation is modeled using significant inputs that are unobservable in the market. These unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company’s valuation policy is determined by members of the Asset Management, Credit and Accounting departments. Whenever possible, the policy is to obtain quoted market prices in active markets to estimate fair values for recognition and disclosure purposes. Where quoted market prices in active markets are not available, fair values are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, broker quotes, information from third party remarketing agents, third party appraisals of collateral and/or other valuation techniques. These techniques are significantly affected by certain of the Company’s assumptions, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows. Potential taxes and other transaction costs are not considered in estimating fair values. As the Company is responsible for determining fair value, an analysis is performed on prices obtained from third parties. Such analysis is performed by asset management and credit department personnel who are familiar with the Company’s investments in equipment, notes receivable and equity securities of venture companies. The analysis may include a periodic review of price fluctuations and validation of numbers obtained from a specific third party by reference to multiple representative sources.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2020-03, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments (“ASU 2020-03”). ASU 2020-03 improves and clarifies various financial instruments topics, including the current expected credit losses (CECL) standard issued in 2016. ASU 2020-03 includes seven different issues that describe the areas of improvement and the related amendments to GAAP that are intended to make the standards easier to understand and apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. The amendments have different effective dates. Management is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance but does not expect adoption will have a material impact on the Fund’s financial statements and disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”). The main objective of this Update is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. To achieve this objective, the amendments in this Update replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The amendments affect entities holding financial assets and equipment under operating leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. The amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, equipment under operating leases, off-balance-sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. Management is currently evaluating the standard and expects the update may potentially result in an increase in the allowance for credit losses given the change to estimated losses over the contractual life adjusted for expected prepayments.

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (“ASU 2018-19”). The new standard clarifies certain aspects of the new CECL impairment model in ASU 2016-13. The amendment clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are within the scope of ASC 842, rather than ASC 326. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on the financial statements and related disclosure requirements.

On August 15, 2019, the FASB issued a proposed ASU that would grant certain companies additional time to implement FASB standards on CECL, and hedging. The proposed ASU defers the effective date for CECL to fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years; and defers the effective dates for hedging to fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The ASU was approved on October 16, 2019. In February 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-02 and delayed the effective date of Topic 326 until fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2022.

5. Related party transactions:

The terms of the Operating Agreement provide that the Managing Member and/or affiliates are entitled to receive certain fees for equipment management and resale and for management of the Company.

The Operating Agreement allows for the reimbursement of costs incurred by the Managing Member and/or affiliates for providing administrative services to the Company. Administrative services provided include Company accounting, investor relations, legal counsel and lease and equipment documentation. The Managing Member is not reimbursed for services whereby it is entitled to receive a separate fee as compensation for such services, such as management of investments.

Each of AFS and ATEL Leasing Corporation (“ALC”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ATEL Capital Group, Inc. and performs services for the Company on behalf of the Managing Member. Acquisition services, equipment management, lease administration and asset disposition services are performed by ALC; investor relations, communications and general administrative services are performed by AFS.

Cost reimbursements to the Managing Member or its affiliates are based on its costs incurred in performing administrative services for the Company. These costs are allocated to each managed entity based on certain criteria such as total assets, number of investors or contributed capital based upon the type of cost incurred. The Managing Member believes that the costs reimbursed are the lower of (i) actual costs incurred on behalf of the Company or (ii) the amount the Company would be required to pay independent parties for comparable administrative services in the same geographic location.

~~The~~Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Managing Member and/or affiliates earned fees and billed for reimbursements~~, pursuant to the Operating Agreement,~~ during the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021 as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended				~~Nine Months Ended~~

	$	~~119~~120	$	~~129~~138	$	~~388~~	$	~~417~~

The Fund’s Operating Agreement places an annual and cumulative limit for cost reimbursements to AFS and/or its affiliates. Any reimbursable costs incurred by AFS and/or affiliates during the year exceeding the annual and/or cumulative limits cannot be reimbursed in the current year, though such costs may be reimbursable in future years to the extent such amounts may be payable if within the annual and cumulative limits in such future years. The Fund is a finite life and self-liquidating entity, and AFS and its affiliates have no recourse against the Fund for the amount of any unpaid excess reimbursable administrative expenses. The Fund will continue to require administrative services from AFS and its affiliates through the end of its term, and will therefore continue to incur reimbursable administrative expenses in each year. The Fund has determined that payment of any amounts in excess of the annual and cumulative limits is not probable, and the date any portion of such amount may be paid, if ever, is uncertain. When the Fund completes its liquidation stage and terminates, any unpaid amount will expire unpaid, with no claim by AFS or its affiliates against any liquidation proceeds or any party for the unpaid balance. As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020~~2021, the Company has not exceeded the annual and/or cumulative limitations discussed above.

6. Non-recourse debt:

At ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022, non-recourse debt consists of a note payable to financial institutions. Such note is due in monthly installments. Interest on the note is at 3.40% per annum. The note is secured by assignments of lease payments and pledges of assets. At ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022, gross operating lease rentals totaled approximately $2.50 million; and the carrying value of the pledged asset is $6.61 million. The note matures in 2024.

The non-recourse debt does not contain any material financial covenants. The debt is secured by a specific lien granted by the Company to the non-recourse lender on (and only on) the discounted lease transactions. The lender has recourse only to the following collateral: the leased equipment; the related lease chattel paper; the lease receivables; and proceeds of the foregoing items. The non-recourse obligation is payable solely out of the respective specific security and the Company does not guarantee (nor is the Company otherwise contractually responsible for) the payment of the non-recourse debt as a general obligation or liability of the Company. Although the Company does not have any direct or general liability in connection with the non-recourse debt apart from the security granted, the Company is directly and generally liable and responsible for certain representations, warranties, and covenants made to the lender, such as warranties as to genuineness of the transaction parties’ signatures, as to the genuineness of the respective lease chattel paper or the transaction as a whole, or as to the Company’s good title to or perfected interest in the secured collateral, as well as similar representations, warranties and covenants typically provided by non-recourse borrowers and customary in the equipment finance industry, and are viewed by such industry as being consistent with non-recourse discount financing obligations. Accordingly, as there are no financial covenants or ratios imposed on the Company in connection with the non-recourse debt, the Company has determined that there are no material covenants with respect to the non-recourse debt that warrant footnote disclosure.

Future minimum payments of non-recourse debt are as follows (in thousands):


	Principal		Interest		Total
Three months ending December 31, 2021	$	240	$	20	$	260
Nine months ending December 31, 2022	$	737	$	41	$	778

2024		172		1		173
	$	21,~~402~~921	$	~~104~~66	$	21,~~506~~987

The non-recourse debt balance represents the remaining portion of half of a $9.2 million non-recourse promissory note executed on May 20, 2019. The non-recourse promissory note was split evenly between the Fund and its affiliate, ATEL 15, LLC, and was used to pay off the senior long-term debt. The non-recourse promissory note is to be serviced by the cash flows generated under a renewed bareboat charter.

7. Commitments and contingencies:

At ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022, there were no commitments to purchase lease assets or fund investments in notes receivable.

8. Members’ capital:

A total of 8,246,919 Units were issued and outstanding at ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020~~2021, ~~including~~inclusive of the 50 Units issued to the initial Member (Managing Member). The Fund was authorized to issue up to 15,000,000 Units in addition to the Units issued to the initial Member.

The Company has the right, exercisable at the Managing Member’s discretion, but not the obligation, to repurchase Units of a Unitholder who ceases to be a U.S. Citizen, for a price equal to 100% of the holder’s capital account. The Company is otherwise permitted, but not required, to repurchase Units upon a holder’s request. The repurchase of Fund units is made in accordance with Section 13 of the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement. The repurchase would be at the discretion of the Managing Member on terms it determines to be appropriate under given circumstances, in the event that the Managing Member deems such repurchase to be in the best interest of the Company; provided, the Company is never required to repurchase any Units. Upon the repurchase of any Units by the Fund, the tendered Units are cancelled. Units repurchased in prior periods were repurchased at amounts representing the original investment less cumulative distributions made to the Unitholder with respect to the Units. All Units repurchased during a quarter are deemed to be repurchased effective the last day of the preceding quarter, and are not deemed to be outstanding during, or entitled to allocations of net income, net loss or distributions for the quarter in which such repurchase occurs.

The Fund’s net income or net losses are to be allocated 100% to the Members. From the commencement of the Fund until the initial closing date, net income and net loss were allocated 99% to the Managing Member and 1% to the initial Other Members. Commencing with the initial closing date, net income and net loss are to be allocated 92.5% to the Other Members and 7.5% to the Managing Member.

Fund distributions are to be allocated 7.5% to the Managing Member and 92.5% to the Other Members. The Company commenced periodic distributions in December 2009.

Distributions to the Other Members for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021 were as follows (in thousands except Units and per Unit data):

9. Fair value measurements:

Under applicable accounting standards, fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

At ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020~~2021, the Company’s warrants and investment in securities registered for public sale were measured on a recurring basis. In addition, certain equipment deemed impaired were measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Such fair value adjustments utilized the following methodology:

Warrants (recurring)

Warrants owned by the Company are not registered for public sale, but are considered derivatives and are carried on the balance sheet at an estimated fair value at the end of the period. The valuation of the warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes formulation of value based upon the stock price(s), the exercise price(s), the volatility of comparable venture companies, time to maturity, and a risk -free interest rate for the term(s) of the warrant exercise(s). AsAt ofboth ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020~~2021, the calculated fair value of the Fund’s warrant portfolio approximated $3 thousand ~~and $31 thousand, respectively~~. Such valuations are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

The fair value of warrants that were accounted for on a recurring basis for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021, and classified as level 3 are as follows (in thousands):

Under the Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the fair value of impaired lease assets were classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy as the data sources utilized for the valuation of such assets reflect significant inputs that are unobservable in the market. Such valuation utilizes a market approach technique and uses inputs that reflect the sales price of similar assets sold by affiliates and/or information from third party remarketing agents not readily available in the market.

The following tables summarize the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used for the Company’s recurring and non-recurring fair value calculation/adjustments categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy at ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020~~2021:

The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments is made in accordance with the guidance provided by the Financial Instruments Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Fair value estimates, methods and assumptions, set forth below for the Company’s financial instruments, are made solely to comply with the requirements of the Financial Instruments Topic and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and related notes.

The Company determines the estimated fair value amounts by using market information and valuation methodologies that it considers appropriate and consistent with the fair value accounting guidance. Considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Cash and cash equivalents

The recorded amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value because of the liquidity and short-term maturity of these instruments.

Non-recourse debt

The fair value of the Company’s non-recourse debt is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based upon current market borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Commitments and Contingencies

Management has determined that no recognition for the fair value of the Company’s loan commitments is necessary because their terms are made on a market rate basis and require borrowers to be in compliance with the Company’s credit requirements at the time of funding.

The fair value of contingent liabilities (or guarantees) is not considered material because management believes there has been no event that has occurred wherein a guarantee liability has been incurred or will likely be incurred.

Results of Operations

Three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 versus three months ended March ~~September 30~~31, ~~2020~~2021

The Company had net ~~losses~~income of $~~230~~177 thousand and net losses of $~~142~~412 thousand for the three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021, respectively.

~~Total~~Revenues operating revenues decreased by $151 thousand, or 22%, compared to the prior year period primarily due to a $148 thousand decline in operating lease revenues. Such decline was mainly due to run-off and disposition of lease assets.

During the current quarter, the Company recorded other loss of $3 thousand related to unrealized gains/losses on its portfolio of investments securities and warrants. This compares to other income of $34 thousand recorded during the prior year period. The $37 thousand unfavorable change in other (loss) income reflects prior year period unrealized gains attributable to the higher stock price of an investment security. All holdings in such investment security had been liquidated prior to the second quarter of 2021.Expenses

~~Nine~~Total operating expenses was $612 thousand and $1.0 million for the three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, 2022 and 2021, ~~versus~~respectively. ~~nine~~The ~~months~~$391 ~~ended~~thousand, ~~September~~or 3039%, ~~2020~~period over period decline in operating expenses was primarily due to decreases in depreciation expense, railcar maintenance fees, professional fees, freight and shipping, and storage fees.

During the respective three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded other losses of $3 thousand and $12 thousand related to the fair valuation of its warrants and investment securities. The $3 thousand total other loss for the current quarter reflects unrealized losses on the Company’s equity securities. By comparison, during the prior

The reduction in operating lease revenues totaled $230 thousand and was largely a result of lease run-off and sales of lease assets since September 30, 2020; while the increase in gains on sales of lease assets totaled $53 thousand and was mostly due to increased sales activity and a change in the mix of assets sold.

Total operating expenses increased by $818 thousand, or 35%, primarily due to impairment losses recorded on certain equipment, as well as higher depreciation expenses and railcar maintenance costs. During the current nine-month period, the Company recorded $619 thousand of impairment losses to reduce the carrying value of certain railcars and containers deemed impaired. No such impairments were deemed necessary during the first nine months of 2020. Depreciation expense increased by $160 thousand primarily due to an approximate $276 thousand of additional depreciation partially offset by the impact of run-off and lease asset sales. The addition depreciation recorded during the current nine-month period reflect year-to-date changes in estimated residual values of certain equipment generating revenue under month-to-month extensions. In addition, railcar maintenance costs increased by $70 thousand primarily due to an increase in lease-end repairs.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company also recorded other income totaling $40 thousand and $182 thousand, respectively, related to the fair valuation of its warrants and investment securities. The $142 thousand unfavorable change in other (loss) income primarily reflects prior year period unrealized gains attributable to a significant change in the stock price of holdings in a privately held company which completed an initial public offering during 2020. All holdings in such company had been liquidated prior to the second quarter of 2021. In addition, the Company realized $13 thousand of gains on the sale of an investment security. No such sales occurred during the prior year period.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

At ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020~~2021, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents totaled $~~1.1~~625 ~~million~~thousand and $~~909~~1.7 ~~thousand~~million, respectively. The liquidity of the Company varies, increasing to the extent cash flows from leases and proceeds of asset sales exceed expenses and decreasing as distributions are made to the Members and to the extent expenses exceed cash flows from leases and proceeds from asset sales.

The Company currently believes it has adequate reserves available to meet its immediate cash requirements and those of the next twelve months, but in the event those reserves were found to be inadequate, the Company would likely be in a position to borrow against its current portfolio to meet such requirements.

Cash Flows

23During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, cash was primarily used to pay distributions, and to repay borrowings under non-recourse debt. Distributions paid to the Other Members and the Managing Member totaled $1.5 million and $974 thousand for the respective three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021; while cash used to reduce non-recourse debt totaled $242 thousand and $233 thousand for the same respective periods. Cash was also used to pay invoices related to management fees and expenses, and other payables during both three-month periods.

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management 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 reporting period. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, which are based upon historical experiences, market trends and financial forecasts, and upon various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances and at that certain point in time. Actual results may differ, significantly at times, from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021. There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies since December 31, ~~2020~~2021.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

The Company’s Managing Member’s Chief Executive Officer, and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial and Operating Officer (“Management”), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, Management concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

The Company does not control the financial reporting process, and is solely dependent on the Management of the Managing Member, who is responsible for providing the Company with financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Managing Member’s disclosure controls and procedures, as they are applicable to the Company, means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control

There were no changes in the Managing Member’s internal control over financial reporting, as it is applicable to the Company, during the quarter ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2021~~2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Managing Member’s internal control over financial reporting, as it is applicable to the Company.
