                partnership organized under the laws of the State of California
                on July 30, 1990 for the purpose of owning and leasing marine
                cargo containers worldwide to ocean carriers. To this extent,
                the Partnership's operations are subject to the fluctuations of
                world economic and political conditions. Such factors may affect
                the pattern and levels of world trade. The Partnership believes
                that the profitability of, and risks associated with, leases to
                foreign customers is generally the same as those of leases to
                domestic customers. The Partnership's leases generally require
                all payments to be made in United States currency.

                Cronos Capital Corp. ("CCC") is the general partner and, with
                its affiliate Cronos Containers Limited (the "Leasing Company"),
                manages the business of the Partnership. CCC and the Leasing
                Company also manage the container leasing business for other
                partnerships affiliated with the general partner. The
                Partnership shall continue until December 31, 2010, unless
                sooner terminated upon the occurrence of certain events.

                The Partnership commenced operations on January 31, 1991, when
                the minimum subscription proceeds of $1,000,000 were obtained.
                The Partnership offered 2,000,000 units of limited partnership
                interest at $20 per unit, or $40,000,000. The offering
                terminated on November 30, 1991, at which time 1,999,812 limited
                partnership units had been sold.

        (b)     Leasing Company and Leasing Agent Agreement

                The Partnership has entered into a Leasing Agent Agreement
                whereby the Leasing Company has the responsibility to manage the
                leasing operations of all equipment owned by the Partnership.
                Pursuant to the Agreement, the Leasing Company is responsible
                for leasing, managing and re-leasing the Partnership's
                containers to ocean carriers, and has full discretion over which
                ocean carriers and suppliers of goods and services it may deal
                with. The Leasing Agent Agreement permits the Leasing Company to
                use the containers owned by the Partnership, together with other
                containers owned or managed by the Leasing Company and its
                affiliates, as part of a single fleet operated without regard to
                ownership. Since the Leasing Agent Agreement meets the
                definition of an operating lease in Statement of Financial
                Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 13, it is accounted for as a
                lease under which the Partnership is lessor and the Leasing
                Company is lessee.

                The Leasing Agent Agreement generally provides that the Leasing
                Company will make payments to the Partnership based upon rentals
                collected from ocean carriers after deducting direct operating
                expenses and management fees to CCC and the Leasing Company. The
                Leasing Company leases containers to ocean carriers, generally
                under operating leases which are either master leases or term
                leases (mostly one to five years). Master leases do not specify
                the exact number of containers to be leased or the term that
                each container will remain on hire but allow the ocean carrier
                to pick up and drop off containers at various locations, and
                rentals are based upon the number of containers used and the
                applicable per-diem rate. Accordingly, rentals under master
                leases are all variable and contingent upon the number of
                containers used. Most containers are leased to ocean carriers
                under master leases; leasing agreements with fixed payment terms
                are not material to the financial statements. Since there are no
                material minimum lease rentals, no disclosure of minimum lease
                rentals is provided in these financial statements.


                                                                     (Continued)

                     NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


        (c)     Basis of Accounting

                The Partnership utilizes the accrual method of accounting. Net
                lease revenue is recorded by the Partnership in each period
                based upon its leasing agent agreement with the Leasing Company.
                Net lease revenue is generally dependent upon operating lease
                rentals from operating lease agreements between the Leasing
                Company and its various lessees, less direct operating expenses
                and management fees due in respect of the containers specified
                in each operating lease agreement.

        (d)     Financial Statement Presentation

                These financial statements have been prepared without audit.
                Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
                in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
                accepted accounting procedures have been omitted. It is
                suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction
                with the financial statements and accompanying notes in the
                Partnership's latest annual report on Form 10-K.

                The financial statements are prepared in conformity with
                accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
                (GAAP), which requires the Partnership 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 reported period. Actual
                results could differ from those estimates.

                The interim financial statements presented herewith reflect all
                adjustments of a normal recurring nature which are, in the
                opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the
                financial condition and results of operations for the interim
                periods presented. The results of operations for such interim
                periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
                expected for the full year.


(2)     Net Lease Receivables Due from Leasing Company

        Net lease receivables due from the Leasing Company are determined by
        deducting direct operating payables and accrued expenses, base
        management fees payable, and reimbursed administrative expenses payable
        to CCC and its affiliates from the rental billings earned by the Leasing
        Company under operating leases to ocean carriers for the containers
        owned by the Partnership. Net lease receivables at March 31, 2001 and
        December 31, 2000 were as follows:



                                                                   March 31,          December 31,

(3)     Net Lease Revenue

        Net lease revenue is determined by deducting direct operating expenses,
        base management fees and reimbursed administrative expenses to CCC and
        its affiliates from the rental revenue earned by the Leasing Company
        under operating leases to ocean carriers for the containers owned by the
        Partnership. Net lease revenue for each of the three-month periods ended
        March 31, 2001 and 2000 was as follows:

(4)     Operating Segment

        The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued SFAS No. 131,
        "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,"
        which changes the way public business enterprises report financial and
        descriptive information about reportable operating segments. An
        operating segment is a component of an enterprise that engages in
        business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses,
        whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the enterprise's chief
        operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be
        allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and about which
        separate financial information is available. Management operates the
        Partnership's container fleet as a homogenous unit and has determined,
        after considering the requirements of SFAS No. 131, that as such it has
        a single reportable operating segment.

        The Partnership derives its revenues from leasing marine cargo
        containers. As of March 31, 2001, the Partnership operated 4,359
        twenty-foot, 2,434 forty-foot and 155 forty-foot high-cube marine dry
        cargo containers, as well as 102 twenty-foot and 47 forty-foot marine
        refrigerated cargo containers. A summary of gross lease revenue, by
        product, for each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2001 and
        2000 follows:



                                                 Three Months Ended

        Due to the Partnership's lack of information regarding the physical
        location of its fleet of containers when on lease in the global shipping
        trade, it is impracticable to provide the geographic area information
        required by SFAS No. 131.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

It is suggested that the following discussion be read in conjunction with the
Registrant's most recent annual report on Form 10-K.


1)      Material changes in financial condition between March 31, 2001 and
        December 31, 2000.

        At March 31, 2001, the Registrant had $1,397,225 in cash and cash
        equivalents, a decrease of $233,566 from the cash balances at December
        31, 2000. Contributing to this decline was the Registrants' results from
        operations, impacted by a declining fleet size and conditions created by
        the slowdown in the global economy.

        During the first three months of 2001, the Registrant disposed of 467
        containers as part of its ongoing container operations. At March 31,
        2001, 70% of the original equipment remained in the Registrant's fleet,
        as compared to 75% at December 31, 2000, and was comprised of the
        following:

        The Registrant's operating performance contributed to a 11% decrease in
        net lease receivables at March 31, 2001 when compared to December 31,
        2000. The decrease is primarily due to an 11% decrease in gross lease
        receivables.

        During the first quarter of 2001, distributions from operations and
        sales proceeds amounted to $1,116,561. This represents an increase from
        the $1,033,236 distributed during the fourth quarter of 2000. The
        increase in distributions was a result of favorable cash collections of
        outstanding receivables and an increase in container sales proceeds
        generated during the fourth quarter of 2000. The Registrant's continuing
        disposal of containers should produce lower operating results and,
        consequently, lower distributions to its partners in subsequent periods.
        Sales proceeds distributed to its partners may fluctuate in subsequent
        periods, reflecting the level of container disposals.


                                                                     (Continued)

2)      Material changes in the results of operations between the three-month
        period ended March 31, 2001 and the three-month period ended March 31,
        2000.

        In the first quarter of 2001, the worldwide demand for containers was
        significantly impacted by the slowdown in the global economy. These
        conditions are reflected in the decline of the Registrant's utilization
        and per-diem rates from December 31, 2000 levels. The Leasing Company
        has implemented a number of marketing initiatives which are designed to
        target identified leasing opportunities and enhance inventory
        management.

        Net lease revenue for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 was
        $467,669, a decrease of approximately 16% from the same period in the
        prior year. Gross rental revenue (a component of net lease revenue) for
        the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 was $727,031, reflecting a
        decline of 25% from the same period in the prior year. Gross rental
        revenue was impacted by the Registrant's smaller fleet size and lower
        per-diem rental rates. Average dry cargo container per-diem rental rates
        for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 declined 5% when
        compared to the same period in the prior year. Average refrigerated
        container per-diem rental rates for the three-month period ended March
        31, 2001 declined 3% when compared to the same period in the prior year.

        The Registrant's average fleet size and utilization rates for the
        three-month periods ended March 31, 2001 and March 31, 2000 were as
        follows:



                                                                    Three Months Ended
                                                               ---------------------------
                                                               March 31,         March 31,
                                                                 2001              2000
                                                               ---------         ---------
                                                                           
         Average fleet size (measured in twenty-foot
            equivalent units (TEU))
               Dry cargo containers                             9,841             11,932
               Refrigerated containers                            197                197
         Average utilization
               Dry cargo containers                                78%                77%
               Refrigerated containers                             55%                58%


        Depreciation expense declined 17% when compared to the same three-month
        period in the prior year. Rental equipment operating expenses were 24%
        of the Registrant's gross lease revenue during the three-month period
        ended March 31, 2001 compared to 30% during the three-month period ended
        March 31, 2000. The decrease is primarily due to the $60,963 reduction
        in the provision for doubtful accounts, as well as a $18,539 reduction
        in storage costs. The Registrant's operating results contributed to a
        decline in base management fees when compared to the same period in the
        prior year.

        The Registrant disposed of 356 twenty-foot, 105 forty-foot and five
        forty-foot high-cube marine dry cargo containers, as well as one
        twenty-foot refrigerated cargo container during the first quarter of
        2001, as compared to 130 twenty-foot, 64 forty-foot and two forty-foot
        high-cube marine dry cargo containers during the same period in the
        prior year. These disposals resulted in a loss of $260,635 for the first
        quarter of 2001, as compared to a loss of $60,057 for the same period in
        the prior year. The Registrant believes that the net losses on container
        disposals in the first quarters of 2001 and 2000 were a result of
        various factors including the age, condition, suitability for continued
        leasing, as well as the geographical location of the containers when
        disposed. These factors will continue to influence the decision to
        repair or dispose of a container when it is returned by a lessee, as
        well as the amount of sales proceeds received and the related gain or
        loss on container disposals. The level of the Registrant's container
        disposals in subsequent periods will also contribute to fluctuations in
        the net gain or loss on disposals. As a result of current market
        conditions, the Registrant will monitor the carrying value of its
        containers to determine if they have been permanently impaired.
