AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SCHEDULE 13D

Reference is hereby made to the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 9, 2010 (the "Schedule 13D"). Terms defined in the Schedule 13D are used herein as so defined.

The following items of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended as follows:

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 is hereby amended to add the following thereto:

On July 30, 2010 Siguler Guff invested an additional $24,425,000 of funds under management in the Company. As a result, Siguler Guff may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 23.614% of the outstanding membership interests of Venture Lending & Leasing VI, LLC (the “Company”). The Company owns all 100,000 outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer. As a result, Siguler Guff may be deemed to beneficially own 23,614 shares (or 23.614%) of the Common Stock of the Issuer (an additional 2,642 shares). The ultimate source of funds for the July 30, 2010 acquisition was capital contributions from the partners and members of the funds and accounts manag ed by Siguler Guff.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5(a)-(b) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(a)-(b) The Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 24.974% of the outstanding membership interests of Venture Lending & Leasing VI, LLC (the “Company”), which owns all of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer (100,000 shares of Common Stock outstanding). The members of the Company have pass-through voting rights with respect to any action proposed at a meeting of the shareholders of the Issuer or submitted for consent of the shareholders of the Issuer. As a result, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 24,974 shares (or 24.974%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. The Reporting Persons disclaim b eneficial ownership of such shares except to the extent of their pecuniary interest therein.

Item 5(c) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(c) Other than as described in this Amendment, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in the Common Stock since the last filing of Schedule 13D. By virtue of the increase in the total outstanding membership interests in the Company, Siguler's ownership percentage in the Company decreased to 1.360%, resulting in a decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock he may be deemed to beneficially own from 1,864 shares as reported in the last filing of Schedule 13D to 1,360 shares as of July 30, 2010.
