PART I

ITEM 1 – BUSINESS

General

We are a Delaware limited partnership formed on January 25, 2008 by our general partner, LEAF Asset Management, LLC (the “General Partner”), which manages us. Our General Partner is a Delaware limited liability company and a subsidiary of Resource America, Inc. (“RAI”). RAI is a publicly-traded company (NASDAQ: REXI) that uses industry specific expertise to evaluate, originate, service, and manage investment opportunities through its commercial finance, real estate and financial fund management segments. Our offering period began on August 12, 2008. Through our offering termination date of October 30, 2009, we raised $125.7 million by selling 1.23 million of our limited partner units. We commenced operations in September 2008.

WeAt ~~are~~inception, we were expected to have a nine-year life, consisting of an offering period of up to two years, a five year reinvestment period, and a subsequent liquidation period of two years, during which time our leases and secured loans will either mature or be sold. In the event that we are unable to sell our leases and loans during the liquidation period, we ~~expect~~will ~~to continue to~~ return capital to our partners as those leases and loans mature. All of our leases and loans mature by ~~the~~December ~~end of~~ 2032. We entered our liquidation period in October 2014, and accordingly, are prohibited from acquiring additional leases and loans under the Limited Partnership Agreement (“the Partnership Agreement”). Contractually, we will terminate on December 31, 2032, unless sooner dissolved or terminated as provided in the Partnership Agreement. The General Partner has been active in taking steps to wind up the Fund. It is anticipated that the full liquidation of the Fund will occur in 2016 as there are only approximately $1.5 million of assets and 35 active contracts remaining in the portfolio as of December 31, 2015. That date may vary based on lease maturities and the sale of the remaining portfolio.

WePrior to entering our liquidation period, we generally ~~acquire~~acquired a diversified portfolio of new, used, or reconditioned equipment that ~~have~~had been financed for third parties. We also ~~acquire~~acquired portfolios of existing leases and secured loans from other finance companies. Our financings ~~are~~were typically acquired from LEAF Financial Corporation (“LEAF Financial”), an affiliate of our General Partner and a subsidiary of RAI. In addition, we ~~may~~made ~~make~~ secured loans to end users to finance their purchase of equipment. We ~~attempt~~attempted to structure our secured loans so that, in an economic sense, there iswas no difference to us between a secured loan and a full payout equipment lease. We also ~~invest~~invested in equipment, leases, and secured loans through joint venture arrangements with our General Partner’s affiliated investment programs. We typically ~~finance~~financed business-essential equipment, including, but not limited to, computers, copiers, office furniture, water filtration systems, machinery used in manufacturing and construction, medical equipment and telecommunications equipment. We ~~focus~~focused on the small to mid-size business market, which generally ~~includes~~included businesses with:

Index

•

500 or fewer employees;

•

$1.0 billion or less in total assets; or

•

$100.0 million or less in total annual sales.

Our principal objective is to generate regular cash distributions to our limited partners.

Our leases consist of direct financing and operating leases as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Under the direct financing method of accounting, interest income (the excess of the aggregate future rentals and estimated unguaranteed residuals upon expiration of the lease over the related equipment cost) is recognized over the life of the lease using the interest method. Under the operating method, the cost of the leased equipment, including acquisition fees associated with lease placements, is recorded as an asset and depreciated on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life. Rental income on operating leases consists primarily of monthly periodic rentals due under the terms of the leases. Generally, during the lease terms of existing operating leases, we will not recover all of the cost and related expenses of rental equipment and, therefore, we are prepared to remarket the equipment in future years. We discontinue the recognition of revenue for leases and loans for which payments are more than 90 days past due, or in case of future payment card receivables, when no payments have been received in 60 days. These assets are classified as non-accrual.

As discussed further in ITEM 7, the lingering effects of the Great Recession in the United States has adversely affected our operations as a result of higher delinquencies and may continue to do so as the economy recovers.

Available Information

We file annual, quarterly and current reports and other information with the SEC. The public may read and copy information we file with the SEC, at the SEC’s public reference room at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, D.C. 20549, on official business days during the hours of 10:00 am and 3:00 pm. The public may obtain information on the operations of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an internet website that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. The internet address of the SEC site is http://www.sec.gov. Our General Partner’s internet address is http://www.LEAFFinancial.com. We make our SEC filings available free of charge on or through our General Partner’s internet website as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the SEC. We are not incorporating by reference in this report any material from our General Partner’s website.

Agreements with our General Partner

We do not directly employ any persons to manage or operate our business. These functions are provided by our General Partner and employees of our General Partner and/or its affiliates. We reimburse our General Partner and/or its affiliates for all direct and indirect costs of services provided, including the cost of employees and benefits properly allocable to us and all other expenses necessary or appropriate to the conduct of our business. Our General Partner and its affiliates receive fees and other compensation from us.

Competition

The equipment leasing business is highly fragmented and competitive. We acquire equipment from our General Partner and its affiliates. Our General Partner and its affiliates compete with:

• a large number of national, regional, and local banks, savings banks, leasing companies, and other financial institutions;

•

captive finance and leasing companies affiliated with major equipment manufacturers; and

• other sources of equipment lease financing, including other publicly- offered partnerships.

Many of our competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical, and marketing resources than we have. Competition with these entities may reduce the creditworthiness of potential lessees or borrowers to whom we have access or decrease our yields. For example, some competitors may have a lower cost of funds and access to funding sources that are not available to us. A lower cost of funds could enable a competitor to offer leases or loans at rates which are less than ours, potentially forcing us to lower our rates or lose origination volume.

Index

Employees

As is commonly the case with limited partnerships, we do not directly employ any of the persons responsible for our management or operations. Rather, the personnel of our General Partner and/or its affiliates manage and operate our business. Officers of our General Partner may spend a substantial amount of time managing the business and affairs of our General Partner and its affiliates and may face a conflict regarding the allocation of their time between our business and affairs and their other business interests. The officers of our General Partner who provide services to us are not required to work full time on our affairs. These officers may devote significant time to the affairs of our General Partner’s affiliates and be compensated by these affiliates for the services rendered to them. There may be significant conflicts between us and affiliates of our General Partner regarding the availability of these officers to manage us.

ITEM 7 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion provides an analysis of our operating results, an overview of our liquidity and capital resources and other items related to us. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with Item 1 and the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015.

As used herein, the terms “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to LEAF Equipment Finance Fund 4, L.P. and its subsidiaries (the “Fund” or “LEAF 4”).

Fund Summary

As discussed in more detail in Item 1, we generally acquire a diversified portfolio of new, used or reconditioned equipment that have been financed for third parties. We also acquire portfolios of existing leases and secured loans from other finance companies. Our financings are typically acquired from our General Partner. In addition, we may make secured loans to end users to finance their purchase of equipment.

Since our commencement in September 2008, the United States suffered through the worst economic recession in over 75 years, known as the Great Recession. The economic slowdown impacted, and will continue to impact, our performance. While the recession began before we were launched, its magnitude and duration have been severe and the consequences broadly felt. In particular, the recession led to a “credit crisis” that impacted us directly (through the amount and terms of credit available to us) and indirectly (through the impact on the small and mid-sized businesses that make up our lease and loan borrowers).

Banks became reluctant to lend, and when they did it became more expensive to borrow. This happened very quickly and severely. In fact, shortly after our launch, we were able to obtain a new credit facility and we were hopeful that we would be able to continue to do so. However, availability and terms got much worse, – not better. Interest rates increased, fees were imposed and/or increased, the lengths of extensions were shortened, and the amount that lenders would advance as a percentage of the leases being financed was significantly decreased.

As we sought new debt facilities and our existing facilities matured or needed modifications, we had to accept these new terms and our costs increased. Most significantly, we have not been able to maintain debt at the same levels. The additional investment requirement reduced the amount of assets that we could purchase, and accordingly reduced our cash flow. The lenders’ higher fees and costs also had to be paid from funds that were then unavailable to re-invest in new leases. Because we have less debt, over time, we will pay our lenders less interest expense but current cash flow is negatively impacted. As we saw these conditions fail to improve, we recognized that we would not be able to obtain enough financing on favorable terms to operate at our proposed size, and we closed to new investments approximately ten months ahead of schedule.

The combination of higher interest rates, lower levels of available credit, increased fees, losses that are slightly higher than originally projected, and the inability to use excess cash flow to pay for some of these costs created a “perfect storm” that is making it difficult to execute the business plan. We have worked to minimize the effects of these conditions. We sought new forms of capital, and were able to arrange debt for us at a time when lenders were not generally providing new facilities. We ~~Additionally~~were weable ~~have~~to ~~refinanced~~refinance all of our existing debt facilities by completing three term securitizations (two in 2010 and the third in January 2011) totaling approximately $360 million. All of these term securitization have been repaid as of December 31, 2015.

We continued to acquire leases until we entered our maturity phase in October 2014, at which time we were prohibited, under the partnership agreement, from acquiring new leases.

To date, limited partners have received total distributions ranging from approximately 2122% to 31% of their original amount invested, depending upon when the investment was made. ~~Management~~Future iscash ~~working~~distributions toare ~~maximize~~not ~~the amount that can be distributed to limited partners in the future~~expected. ~~During~~The ~~2013,~~Fund ~~distributions~~entered ~~were~~its ~~made~~liquidation atperiod ain ~~rate~~October of2014 ~~4%.

~~General~~Finance ~~Economic~~Receivables ~~Overview~~and Asset Quality

~~For~~Information ~~the~~about ~~quarter~~our ~~ended~~portfolio ~~December 31, 2014, U.S. economic activity demonstrated the sustained and steady growth seen over the last several quarters, including the very robust 5% increase in GDP reported for the 3rd quarter~~ of ~~2014. Most~~leases ~~sectors of the economy, including the small business sector, showed improvement. Continued job growth~~ and ~~drops~~loans inis ~~the~~as ~~unemployment~~follows ~~rate,~~(dollars ~~along with declining oil prices, helped boost consumer sentiment. The general election~~ in November that resulted in a change of control of Congress seemed to have no impact on the direction of the economy. Some key economic indicators and reports that were released in the 4th quarter of 2014 that have specific relevance for small to medium size business performance are summarized below. The indicators show overall positive trends. These indicators have especially important relevance to us as loans and leases to small to medium size businesses comprise the majority of our portfolio.thousands):

· The Monthly Confidence Index reported by The Equipment Leasing & Finance Foundation reported in December 2014 was 63.4, an increase from 60.2 for the September 2014 Index. Any Index over 50 indicates a positive outlook for future business conditions. The Monthly Confidence Index measures lease and finance company executive sentiment with respect to availability of capital, plans on hiring, and overall U.S. economic trends. The December 2014 Index reflected the sentiment of the majority of the executives surveyed that business conditions will remain the same or improve over the next four months.

· The 4th quarter 2014 Thomson Reuters/PayNet Small Business Lending Indices, which measure the volume of lending to small businesses, showed an increase over the prior year period. Over the same period, the small business loan delinquency rates remained stable. Commentary in the report stated “private businesses (small businesses) are leading the way towards slower but more sustained expansion.”

· The National Federation of Independent Business reported that its Small Business Optimism Index as reported in December 2014 increased to 100.4, which was the first time in eight years that the Index exceeded 100. An Index over 100 indicates that the small business survey participants generally expect businesses to expand. The report stated that the Index was “bolstered by a surge in sales expectation as well as hiring, capital outlays and business expansion plans.”

· The National Association of Credit Management Index (“CMI”) for December 2014 was 54.9, the same as at the end of the last quarter. Any Index over 50 shows an economy in expansion. The factors comprising the CMI include activities like credit extended, credit approval rates, delinquencies, and bankruptcies. The recent CMI numbers suggest a still sluggish but slowly growing economy. The CMI has remained over 50 for more than a year.

· The December 2014 Institute of Supply Management reported its PMI Index on the manufacturing sector showed continued expansion. The PMI Index of 55.5 indicated the 19th consecutive month of manufacturing expansion. The PMI Index covers 18 manufacturing industries, and 11 of those industries reported growth in December 2014, down from 15 industries reporting growth in the prior quarter. A common comment from those industries not reporting growth was the negative impact of the West Coast ports slowdown.

Taken altogether, these indicators point to an economy that is continuing to grow steadily but slowly, which is positive for the small to medium size businesses that comprise the majority of our portfolio.

We have identified the following policies as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations:

WeInvestments manage our credit risk by adhering to strict credit policies and procedures, and closely monitoring our receivables. Our General Partner, the servicer of our leases and loans, responded to the Great Recession in ~~part,~~Leases ~~by implementing early intervention techniques in collection procedures. Our General Partner has also increased its credit standards~~ and limited the amount of business we do with respect to certain industries, geographic locations, and equipment types. Because of the scarcity of credit available to small and mid-size businesses, we have been able to increase our credit standards without reducing the interest rate we charge on our leases and loans.Loans

Our ~~allowance~~investments ~~for credit losses is our estimate of losses inherent~~ in our commercial finance receivables. The allowance is based on factors which include our historical loss experience on equipment finance portfolios we manage, an analysis of contractual delinquencies, current economic conditions and trends, and equipment finance portfolio characteristics, adjusted for recoveries. In evaluating historic performance of our leases and loans, weconsist perform a migration analysis, which estimates the likelihood that an account progresses through delinquency stages to ultimate charge-off unless individually reviewed for impairment. In an individual review for impairment we consider the loans performance, probability of ~~repayment,~~direct ~~and~~financing ~~general and local economic conditions when assessing whether impairment is necessary. Substantially all of our~~ leases ~~and loans evaluated for impairment on an individual basis include an analysis of the market values of underlying collateral values~~, asoperating adjusted for estimated selling and other closing costs. Our policy is to charge off to the allowance those financings for which it is probable management will be unable to collect all amounts contractually owed. Substantially all of our assets are collateral for our debt andleases, ~~therefore, significantly greater delinquencies than anticipated will have an adverse impact on our cash flow~~ and ~~distributions to our partners~~loans.

We focus on financing equipment used by small to mid-sized businesses. Due to the shrinking size of the portfolio, the investment in leases and loans, allowance for credit losses, and non-performing assets all decreased from the prior year. The lingering effects of the economic recession have made it difficult for some of our customers to make payments on their financings with us on a timely basis, and as expected in a liquidating portfolio, the performing leases payoff as scheduled while the delinquent leases remain delinquent, resulting in an increase in charge-offs net of recoveries.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and cost and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis we evaluate our estimates, including the allowance for credit losses and the estimated unguaranteed residual values of leased equipment. We base our estimates on historical experience, current economic conditions and on various other assumptions that we believe reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We have identified the following policies as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations.

Investments in Commercial Finance Assets

Our investments in commercial finance assets consist of direct financing leases, operating leases, and loans.

Direct Financing Leases. Certain of our lease transactions are accounted for as direct financing leases (as distinguished from operating leases). Such leases transfer substantially all benefits and risks of equipment ownership to the customer. Our investment in direct financing leases consists of the sum of the total future minimum lease payments receivable and the estimated unguaranteed residual value of leased equipment, less unearned finance income. Unearned finance income, which is recognized as revenue over the term of the financing by the effective interest method, represents the excess of the total future minimum contracted payments plus the estimated unguaranteed residual value expected to be realized at the end of the lease term over the cost of the related equipment.

Unguaranteed residual value represents the estimated amount to be received at lease termination from lease extensions or ultimate disposition of the leased equipment. The estimates of residual values are based upon ~~the~~ our history with regard to the realization of residuals, available industry data, and the General Partner’s ~~senior management’s~~ experience with respect to comparable equipment. The estimated residual values are recorded as a component of investments in leases. Residual values are reviewed periodically to determine if the current estimate of the equipment’s fair market value appears to be below its recorded estimate. If required, residual values are adjusted downward to reflect adjusted estimates of fair market values. Upward adjustments to residual values are not permitted.

Operating Leases. Leases not meeting any of the criteria to be classified as direct financing leases are deemed to be operating leases. Under the accounting for operating leases, the cost of the leased equipment, including acquisition fees associated with lease placements, is recorded as an asset and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the equipment’s estimated useful life, generally up to seven years. Rental income consists primarily of monthly periodic rental payments due under the terms of the leases. We recognize rental income on a straight line basis.

A review for impairment of operating leases is performed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the operating leases may not be recoverable. We write down our rental equipment to its estimated net realizable value when it is probable that its carrying amount exceeds its fair value and the excess can be reasonably estimated; gains are only recognized upon actual sale of the rental equipment.

Loans. For term loans, the investment in loans consists of the sum of the total future minimum loan payments receivable less unearned finance income. Unearned finance income, which is recognized as revenue over the term of the financing by the effective interest method, represents the excess of the total future minimum contracted loan payments over the cost of the loan. For all other loans, interest income is recorded at the stated rate on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected.

Allowance for Credit Losses. The Fund evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses (including investments in leases and loans) based upon, among other factors, management’s historical experience on the portfolios it manages, an analysis of contractual delinquencies, economic conditions and trends, and equipment finance portfolio characteristics, adjusted for expected recoveries. In evaluating historic performance, the Fund performs a migration analysis, which estimates the likelihood that an account will progress through delinquency stages to ultimate charge-off. The Fund’s policy is to charge off to the allowance those financings which are in default and for which management has determined the probability of collection to be remote. After an account becomes 180 or more days past due, any remaining balance is charged off. Generally, past due accounts are referred to our internal recovery group consisting of a team of credit specialists and collectors. The group utilizes several resources in an attempt to maximize recoveries on past due accounts including: 1) initiating litigation against the end user customer and any personal guarantor, 2) referring the account to an outside law firm or collection agency and/or 3) repossessing and remarketing the equipment through third parties.

The Fund discontinues the recognition of revenue for leases and loans for which payments are more than 90 days past due. Generally, income recognition resumes when a lease or loan becomes less than 90 days delinquent. Fees from delinquent payments are recognized when received and are included in other income.

The change in total revenues was attributable to the following:

~~The~~· A decrease in ~~total~~interest ~~revenues~~on ~~was~~equipment ~~primarily~~financings ~~attributable~~and rental income. Our weighted average net investment in financing assets decreased to $4.6 million for the ~~following:~~year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to $21.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, a decrease of $17.0 million or 79%, due to the continued runoff of our portfolio of leases and loans.

11· A decrease in other income primarily due to a reduction in late fee income. Late fee income decreased due to the reduction in the size of our portfolio of leases and loans.

Index

The decrease in total expenses was primarily a result of the following:

· A decrease in interest expense due to a ~~decrease~~decline in our average secured debt outstanding. Average secured borrowings for the years ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015 and ~~2013~~2014 were $122.75 million and $4712.47, respectively, at an effective interest rate of 1815.63% and 1218.16%, respectively. The interest expense reduction was driven by accelerated debt payments required by our lenders and the purchase of the remaining 2011-1 term securitization notes outstanding.

· A decrease in depreciation of operating leases ~~related~~due to the ~~decrease~~maturity inof our ~~investment in~~ operating ~~leases~~lease portfolio.

· A decrease in ~~our~~the provision for credit losses ~~principally~~due ~~reflects~~to the ~~decrease~~maturity of our equipment financing portfolio ~~and the diminishing impact of the recession~~.

· A decrease in general and administrative expenses and administrative expenses reimbursed to ~~affiliates~~affiliate ~~occurred~~ due to the reduction in the size of our portfolio.

The net income (loss) per limited ~~partner~~partnership unit, after the net income (loss) allocated to our General Partner, for the years ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015 and ~~2013~~2014 was $46.2790 and ($64.3327), respectively, based on the weighted average number of limited ~~partner~~partnership units outstanding of 1,~~259~~239,~~493~~313 and 1,259,~~537~~493, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our major source of liquidity is from the collection of lease and loan payments. Our primary cash requirements, in addition to normal operating expenses, ~~are~~have been for debt service, ~~investments~~and indistributions ~~leases~~to our partners. We entered our liquidation period on October 2014, and ~~loans~~accordingly, are prohibited from acquiring additional leases and ~~distributions~~loans tounder ~~our~~the ~~partners~~Partnership Agreement.

The following table sets forth our sources and uses of cash for the periods indicated (in thousands):

Through December 31, 2015, the General Partner has waived management fees of approximately $7.9 million, of which approximately $78,000 related to the year ended December 31, 2015. Accordingly, we did not record any management fee expense for the years ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015 or ~~2013~~2014. The cash savings on management fees and distributions is expected to be used to pay down our liabilities. ~~Approximately $438,000 of management fees were waived for the year ended December 31, 2014 and $7.8 million have been waived on a cumulative basis.~~

AsOur ~~discussed above, our~~ liquidity has been and may continue to be adversely affected by higher than expected equipment lease defaults, which ~~result~~have resulted in a loss of anticipated revenues. These losses ~~affect~~have affected our ability to make distributions to our partners~~, and if the level of defaults is sufficiently large, result in our inability to fully recover our investment in the underlying equipment~~. In evaluating our allowance for losses on uncollectible leases, we ~~consider~~have considered our contractual delinquencies, economic conditions and trends, lease portfolio characteristics, and our General Partner’s ~~management’s prior~~ experience with similar ~~lease~~leased assets. ~~As our lease portfolio ages, and if the economic recovery in the United States stalls or reverses, we anticipate the need to increase our allowance for credit losses.~~

Promissory Notes Payable: In addition to the above borrowings, LEAF Commercial Finance Fund, LLC (“LCFF”), a subsidiary of LEAF Funds JV2, offered 8.25% secured recourse promissory notes (the “Notes”) to private investors. The offering closed in February 2009 and raised approximately $9.4 million, of which about $9.3 million was outstanding as of December 31, 2014. The Notes have a six-year term, require interest only payments until their maturity in February 2015, and are subordinated to LCFF’s secured debt. LCFF may call or redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time during the interest only period. The Notes are recourse to LCFF only and are collateralized by LCFF’s net assets. LCFF failed to make the January 2015 periodic interest payment and did not pay the principal balance when due in March 2015. LCFF was notified of its continuing default as a result of noncompliance with the terms of the notes. No rights or remedies, as listed below, have been executed at this time.

As such, LCFF was notified of its default under the terms of the Notes and began accruing interest in January 2015 at a 10% default rate. However, no ~~longer~~remedies ~~servicing~~or ~~these~~legal ~~leases~~action against LCFF has been executed through the date of this filing.

13Gain on Dissolution of Subsidiary

~~Index~~As of December 31, 2015, after LCFF had transferred its membership interests in LRF6 to LEAF 4, LCFF had no assets remaining to repay the investors in its promissory notes or to satisfy its other obligations. This resulted in the dissolution of LCFF, the write-off of its outstanding obligations, and a gain on dissolution of subsidiary of approximately $10.4 million recognized by LEAF 4.

ITEM 8 – FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Partners

LEAF Equipment Finance Fund 4, L.P.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of LEAF Equipment Finance Fund 4, L.P. (a Delaware ~~Limited~~limited ~~Partnership~~partnership) and subsidiaries (the “Fund”) as of December 31, ~~2014~~2015 and ~~2013~~2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in partners’ (deficit~~) capital~~, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of LEAF Equipment Finance Fund 4, L.P. and subsidiaries as of December 31, ~~2014~~2015 and ~~2013~~2014, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, ~~2014,~~2015 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, it is anticipated that the full liquidation of the Fund will occur in 2016. That date may vary based on lease maturities and the sale of the remaining portfolio.

LEAF EQUIPMENT FINANCE FUND 4, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, ~~2014~~2015

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

LEAF Equipment Finance Fund 4, L.P. (“LEAF 4” or the “Fund”), is a Delaware limited partnership, ~~was~~ formed on January 25, 2008 by its general partner, LEAF Asset Management, LLC (the “General Partner”), which manages the Fund. The General Partner is a Delaware limited liability company and a subsidiary of Resource America, Inc. (“RAI”). RAI is a publicly -traded company (NASDAQ: REXI) that uses industry specific expertise to evaluate, originate, service, and manage investment opportunities through its commercial finance, real estate, and financial fund management segments. Through its offering termination date of October 30, 2009, the Fund raised $125.7 million by selling 1.23 million of its limited ~~partner~~partnership units. It commenced operations in September 2008.

~~The~~At inception, the Fund iswas expected to have a nine-year life, consisting of an offering period of up to two years, a five-year reinvestment period, and a subsequent liquidation period of two years, during which time the Fund’s leases and secured loans will either mature or be sold. In the event the Fund is unable to sell its leases and loans during the liquidation period, the Fund ~~expects~~will ~~to continue to~~ return capital to its partners as those leases and loans mature. All of the Fund’s leases and loans mature by ~~the~~December ~~end of~~ 2032. The Fund entered its liquidation period in October 2014, and accordingly, is prohibited from acquiring additional leases and loans under the Limited Partnership Agreement (“the Partnership Agreement”). Contractually, the Fund ~~will~~terminates ~~terminate~~ on December 31, 2032, unless sooner dissolved or terminated as provided in the Partnership Agreement. The General Partner has been active in taking steps to wind up the Fund. It is anticipated that the full liquidation of the Fund will occur in 2016 as there are only approximately $1.5 million of assets and 35 active contracts remaining in the portfolio as of December 31, 2015. That date may vary based on lease maturities and the sale of the remaining portfolio.

The Fund acquired a diversified ~~portfolio~~portfolios of equipment leases and ~~secured~~ loans to finance to end users throughout the United States as well as ~~the District of Columbia and~~ Puerto Rico. The Fund also acquired existing portfolios from other equipment finance companies, primarily from LEAF Financial Corporation (“LEAF Financial”), an affiliate of its General Partner and a subsidiary of RAI. The primary objective of the Fund is to generate regular cash distributions to its partners from its equipment finance portfolio over the life of the Fund.

In addition to its 1% general partnership interest, the General Partner has also invested $1.0 million for a 0.8887% limited partnership interest in the Fund.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Fund ~~and its wholly-owned subsidiary LEAF Receivables Funding 4~~, ~~LLC. The consolidated financial statements also include~~ LEAF Funding, LLC (“LEAF Funds JV1”) ~~and its wholly-owned subsidiaries LEAF Capital Funding III~~, ~~LLC~~ and LEAF ~~Receivables Funding 2, LLC. In addition, the consolidated financial statements include LEAF~~ Funds Joint Venture 2, LLC (“LEAF Funds JV2”) and its subsidiaries LEAF Commercial Finance Fund, LLC (“LCFF”) and LEAF Receivables Funding 6, LLC (“LRF6”). The Fund maintains a 96% and 98% ownership interest in LEAF Funds JV1 and LEAF Funds JV2, respectively. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Fund reflects the participation of ~~LEAF~~an ~~Equipment~~affiliate ~~Leasing~~of ~~Income~~the ~~Fund~~General ~~III,~~Partner ~~L.P. (“LEAF III”)~~ in the net assets and in the income or losses of LEAF Funds JV1 and LEAF Funds JV2 as noncontrolling ~~interests~~interest in the consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations. Noncontrolling interest adjusts the Fund’s consolidated operating results to reflect only the Fund’s share of the earnings or losses of LEAF Funds JV1 and LEAF Funds JV2.

Dissolution of Subsidiary

As of December 31, 2015, LCFF sold, assigned, and transferred its membership interests in LRF6 (including assets of approximately $40,000) to LEAF 4. After the transfer occurred, LCFF had no assets remaining to repay the investors in its promissory notes or to satisfy its other obligations. This resulted in the dissolution of LCFF, the write-off of its outstanding obligations, and a gain on dissolution of subsidiary of approximately $10.4 million recognized by LEAF 4.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with ~~accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“~~U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the allowance for credit losses and the ~~estimated~~ unguaranteed residual values of leased equipment, among others. The Fund bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

~~Restricted Cash~~18

The Fund had restricted cash of approximately $589,000 and $8.1 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Restricted cash as of December 31, 2014 included cash being held in reserve by the Fund’s lenders of approximately $413,000 and $176,000 of customer payments deposited into a lockbox shared with the General Partner and other entities serviced by the Fund’s General Partner. The lockbox is in the name of U.S. Bank NA as trustee under an inter-creditor agreement amongst LEAF Financial, the other entities and their respective lenders. These amounts represent customer payments received by the lockbox, applied to the respective customer’s accounts, but not yet transferred to the Fund’s bank account.

In~~types ~~addition~~of businesses, noor individual end ~~user~~users accounted for more than 10% of the Fund’s ~~leases~~portfolio ~~and loans as~~ of ~~December~~leases ~~31,~~and ~~2014~~loans.

Investments in ~~Commercial~~Leases ~~Finance~~and ~~Assets~~Loans

The Fund’s investments in ~~commercial~~leases ~~finance~~and ~~assets~~loans consist of direct financing leases, operating leases, ~~loans~~ and ~~future payment card receivables~~loans.

Direct Financing Leases. Certain of the Fund’s lease transactions are accounted for as direct financing leases (as distinguished from operating leases). Such leases transfer substantially all benefits and risks of equipment ownership to the customer. The Fund’s investment in direct financing leases consists of the sum of the total future minimum lease payments receivable and the estimated unguaranteed residual value of leased equipment, less unearned finance income. Unearned finance income, which is recognized as revenue over the term of the financing by the effective interest method, represents the excess of the total future minimum contracted payments plus the estimated unguaranteed residual value expected to be realized at the end of the lease term over the cost of the related equipment.

Unguaranteed residual value represents the estimated amount to be received at lease termination from lease extensions or ultimate disposition of the leased equipment. The estimates of residual values are based upon the ~~General Partner~~Fund’s history with regard to the realization of residuals, available industry data and the ~~General Partner~~Fund’s ~~senior management’s~~ experience with respect to comparable equipment. The estimated residual values are recorded as a component of ~~investments~~the investment in leases. Residual values are reviewed periodically to determine if the current estimate of the equipment’s fair market value appears to be below its recorded estimate. If required, residual values are adjusted downward to reflect adjusted estimates of fair market values. Upward adjustments to residual values are not permitted.

Operating Leases. Leases not meeting the criteria to be classified as direct financing leases are deemed to be operating leases. Under the accounting for operating leases, the cost of the leased equipment, including acquisition fees associated with lease placements, is recorded as an asset and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the equipment’s estimated useful life, generally up to seven years. Rental income consists primarily of monthly periodic rental payments due under the terms of the leases. The Fund recognizes rental income on a straight line basis.

~~Generally,~~A ~~during~~review ~~the~~for ~~lease~~impairment ~~terms~~ of ~~existing~~ operating leases, ~~the Fund will not recover all of the cost and related expenses of its rental equipment and, therefore, it~~ is ~~prepared~~performed towhenever ~~remarket~~events ~~the~~or ~~equipment~~changes in ~~future~~circumstances ~~years.~~indicate ~~The~~that ~~Fund’s policy is to review, on a quarterly basis,~~ the ~~expected~~carrying ~~economic~~amount ~~life~~ of ~~its rental equipment in order to determine~~ the ~~recoverability~~operating ofleases ~~its~~may ~~undepreciated~~not ~~cost.~~be recoverable. The Fund writes down its rental equipment to its estimated net realizable value when it is probable that its carrying amount exceeds ~~such~~its fair value and the excess can be reasonably estimated; gains are only recognized upon actual sale of the rental equipment.

Loans. ~~For~~The ~~term loans, the~~ investment in term loans consists of the sum of the total future minimum loan payments receivable less unearned finance income. Unearned finance income, which is recognized as revenue over the term of the financing by the effective interest method, represents the excess of the total future minimum contracted loan payments over the cost of the ~~loan~~related equipment. For all other loans, interest income is recorded at the stated rate on the accrual basis toas ~~the~~much ~~extent~~as ~~that~~ such amounts are expected to be collected.

Allowance for Credit Losses. The Fund evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses (including investments in leases and loans) based upon, ~~among other factors,~~ management’s historical experience on the portfolios it manages, an analysis of contractual delinquencies, economic conditions and trends, and equipment finance portfolio characteristics, adjusted for expected recoveries, among others. In evaluating historic performance, the Fund performs a migration analysis, which estimates the likelihood that an account will progress through delinquency stages to ultimate charge-off. The Fund’s policy is to charge off to the allowance those financings which are in default ~~and~~where ~~for which~~ management has determined the probability of collection to be remote. After an account becomes 180 or more days past due, any remaining balance is charged off. Generally, past due accounts are referred to our internal recovery group consisting of ~~a team of~~ credit specialists and collectors. The group ~~utilizes~~uses several resources in an attempt to maximize recoveries on past due accounts including: 1) initiating litigation against the end user customer and any personal guarantor, 2) referring the account to an outside law firm or collection agency and/or 3) repossessing and remarketing the equipment through third parties.

21The Fund discontinues the recognition of revenue for leases and loans for which payments are more than 90 days past due. Generally, income recognition resumes when a lease or loan becomes less than 90 days delinquent. Fees from delinquent payments are recognized when received and are included in other income.

Generally, income recognition resumes when a lease or loan becomes less than 90 days delinquent. Fees from delinquent payments are recognized when received and are included in other income.Income

Other income includes miscellaneous fees charged by the Fund such as late fee income, among others. The Fund recognizes fee income as fees are collected.

Income Taxes

Federal and state income tax laws provide that the income or losses of the Fund are reportable by the partners on their individual income tax returns. Accordingly, no provision for such taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements.

Recent Accounting Standards

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective

Lease Accounting. In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” This ASU attempts to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by disclosing key information about leasing arrangements and by requiring lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases. In order to meet that objective, this ASU amends the Financial Accounting Standards Codification and creates Topic 842 to supersede Topic 840, Leases. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the methods and timing of adoption and the impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

Transfers of Financial Assets

In connection with establishing its debt facilities with its banks, the Fund has formed bankruptcy remote special -purpose entities (“SPEs”) through which the financings are arranged. The Fund’s asset transfers ~~of assets~~ to these special purpose entities do not qualify for sales accounting treatment due to certain call provisions that the Fund maintains. Accordingly, assets and related debt of the ~~special~~SPEs ~~purpose entities~~ are included in the Fund’s consolidated balance sheets. The Fund’s leases and restricted cash are assigned as collateral for these borrowings and there is no further recourse to the general credit of the Fund. Collateral in excess of these borrowings represents the Fund’s maximum loss exposure.

InDuring ~~April~~the ~~2014~~year ended December 31, 2015, the ~~Company~~Fund sold apools ~~pool~~totaling of52 ~~approximately~~leases, ~~200~~in ~~leases~~two separate sales, with a net investment of approximately $54.714 million to a third party for proceeds totaling approximately $54.809 million and recognized a ~~gain~~loss on the sale of approximately $7050,000.

NOTE 5 – ~~DEFERRED~~SECURED ~~FINANCING COSTS~~DEBT

As2011-1 ofTerm December 31, 2014 and 2013, deferred financing costs include $143,000 and $625,000, respectively, of unamortized deferred financing costs which are being amortized over the terms of the estimated useful life of the related debt. Accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $2.5 million and $5.2 million, respectively.Securitization

~~NOTE~~In January 2011, LEAF Receivables Funding 6, –LLC ~~SECURED~~(“LRF6”), ~~DEBT~~a subsidiary of LEAF Commercial Finance Fund, LLC (“LCFF”), issued six classes of asset-backed notes (the “2011-1 Term Securitization”), one with a stated maturity date of December 2018 and five with a stated maturity date of December 2023.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Fund sold pools totaling 52 leases, in two separate sales, with a net investment of approximately $4.14 million to a third party for proceeds totaling approximately $4.09 million and recognized a loss on the sale of approximately $50,000.

In August 2015, LEAF 4 purchased, from a third party noteholder, the remaining outstanding 2011-1 term securitization notes that were issued by LRF6. The outstanding notes at that time of $1.366 million were purchased for $705,000, a discount of $661,000. This resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $258,000 after taking into account the write-off of the remaining unamortized deferred financing costs and original issue discount on debt totaling approximately $403,000. As a result of this transaction, LEAF 4 was the only noteholder of the then outstanding 2011-1 term securitization notes. As of December 31, 2015, LCFF sold, assigned, and transferred its membership interests in LRF6 (including assets of approximately $40,000) to LEAF 4.

As of December 31, 2015, after LCFF had transferred its membership interests in LRF6 to LEAF 4, LCFF had no assets remaining to repay the investors in its promissory notes or to satisfy its other obligations. This resulted in the dissolution of LCFF, the write-off of its outstanding obligations, and a gain on dissolution of subsidiary of approximately $10.4 million recognized by LEAF 4.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability at the measurement date (exit price). U.S. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3). The level within the fair value hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement in its entirety.

NOTE 7 – PROMISSORY NOTES PAYABLE

LEAF Commercial Finance Fund, LLC (“LCFF”), a subsidiary of LEAF Funds JV2, offered 8.25% secured recourse promissory notes (the “Notes”) to private investors. The offering closed in February 2009 and raised approximately $9.4 million, of which about $9.3 million was outstanding as of December 31, 2014. The Notes have a six-year term, require interest only payments until their maturity in February 2015, and are subordinated to LCFF’s secured debt. LCFF may call or redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time during the interest only period. The Notes are recourse to LCFF only and are collateralized by LCFF’s net assets. LCFF failed to make the January 2015 periodic interest payment and did not pay the principal balance when due in March 2015. LCFF was notified of its continuing default as a result of noncompliance with the terms of the notes. No rights or remedies, as listed below, have been executed at this time.

The Notes are subject to various covenants as set forth in their indenture, including an interest coverage ratio test which LCFF was not in compliance with as of December 31, 2014. LCFF notified the Trustee and noteholders of this breach. As a result, the noteholders have the right to declare an event of default, which to date has not occurred. If the noteholders would declare an event of default, they have various rights and remedies available to them, including (1) the right to declare all amounts currently outstanding under the Notes as immediately due and payable; (2) the right to take immediate possession of the assets of LCFF; and (3) the right to sell or otherwise dispose of the assets of LCFF in their current condition. The Notes are subordinated to LCFF’s secured debt. Therefore, the noteholders are only entitled to the collateral remaining after the secured debt is satisfied, if any.

NOTE 8 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability at the measurement date (exit price). U.S. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement in its entirety.

•

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

•

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

•

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques.

There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value at December 31, ~~2014~~2015 or ~~2013~~2014. The fair value of financial instruments not measured at fair value for which it is practicable to estimate that value is as follows: for cash, restricted cash, receivables, and payables, the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short term maturity of these instruments.

The methods used to estimate the fair value on secured debt that is not measured at fair value, the level within the fair value hierarchy that those fair value measurements are categorized, and the carrying value of the Fund’s secured debt at December 31, 2014 is as follows (in thousands):

	Carrying Value		Fair Value Measurements Using						Liabilities At Fair Value
			Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Secured Debt	$	6,725	$	−	$	5,330	$	−	$	5,330
Promissory Notes Payable	$	9,295	$	−	$	−	$	−	$	−

The fair value of the secured debt at December 31, 2014 was determined using quoted prices from a broker-dealer as of the measurement date. The fair value of the promissory notes payable at December 31, 2014 was determined to be $0 as the notes are in default and as LCFF did not pay the principal balance when due in March 2015 and does not expect to repay the balance in the future.

ITEM 9 – CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

None.

ITEM 9A – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Under the supervision of our General Partner’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our General Partner’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level discussed above.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our General Partner’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our General Partner’s management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, ~~2014~~2015. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the 2013 version of the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based upon this assessment, our General Partner’s management concluded that, as of December 31, ~~2014~~2015, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

PART III

ITEM 10 – DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT

Our General Partner manages our activities. Although our limited partners have limited voting rights under our partnership agreement, they do not directly or indirectly participate in our management or operations or have actual or apparent authority to enter into contracts on our behalf or to otherwise bind us. Our General Partner will be liable, as General Partner, for all of our debts to the extent not paid, except to the extent that indebtedness or other obligations incurred by it are specifically with recourse only to our assets. Whenever possible, our General Partner intends to make any of our indebtedness or other obligations with recourse only to our assets.

As is commonly the case with limited partnerships, we do not directly employ any of the persons responsible for our management or operation. Rather, our General Partner’s personnel manage and operate our business. Officers of our General Partner may spend a substantial amount of time managing the business and affairs of our General Partner and its affiliates and may face a conflict regarding the allocation of their time between our business and affairs and their other business interests.

The board of directors of our General Partner has not adopted specific minimum qualifications for service on the board, but rather seeks a mixture of skills that are relevant to our business. The following presents a brief summary of the attributes of each director that led to the conclusion that such person should serve as a director:

Mr. Cohen has extensive financial and operational experience, including as the chief executive officer of our general partner’s publicly traded parent company.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Because we do not directly employ any persons, we rely on a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics adopted by Resource America, Inc. that applies to the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer of our General Partner, as well as to persons performing services for us ~~generally~~. You may obtain a copy of this code of ethics by a request to our General Partner at LEAF Asset Management, LLC, One Commerce Square, 2005 Market Street, 14th Floor, Philadelphia Pennsylvania 19103.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which we refer to as the Exchange Act, requires the directors and executive officers of our General Partner, our General ~~Partners~~Partner, and holders greater than 10% of our limited partnership interests to file reports with the SEC. SEC regulations require us to identify anyone who filed a required report late during the most recent fiscal year. Based on our review of these reports, we believe that the filing requirements for all of these reporting persons were complied with during ~~2014~~2015.

ITEM 11 – EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

We do not have, nor do we expect to have, any employees as discussed in Item 10 — “Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant.” Instead, our management and day-to-day activities are provided by the employees of our General Partner and its affiliates.
