NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. Description of Business
     GATX Corporation (“GATX” or the “Company”) leases, manages, operates, and invests in long-lived, widely used assets in the rail, marine and industrial equipment markets. Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, GATX has three financial reporting segments: Rail, Specialty and American Steamship Company (“ASC”).
NOTE 2. Basis of Presentation
     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of GATX Corporation and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by these accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the entire year ending December 31, 2007. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes set forth in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2006 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2007 presentation.
     During the second quarter of 2007, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, GATX Financial Corporation (“GFC”), merged into its parent company, GATX Corporation. This action simplified GATX’s corporate structure and eliminated certain redundancies and costs. All outstanding debt and other direct financial obligations of GFC became the direct obligations of GATX. The merger did not result in any impact to the consolidated financial statements.
     On January 1, 2007, GATX adopted the provisions of the following new accounting standards:
     Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS 13-2, Accounting for a Change or Projected Change in the Timing of Cash Flows Relating to Income Taxes Generated by a Leveraged Lease Transaction. This guidance applies to all transactions classified as leveraged leases in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 13 and provides that if the expected timing of income tax cash flows generated by a leveraged lease transaction changes, then the rate of return and the allocation of income should be recalculated which may result in a one-time, non-cash charge to earnings in the period of changed expectations. As a result of the implementation of this FSP, GATX reduced the carrying value of two structured leverage leases and recorded a corresponding reduction of $15.0 million, net of taxes, to the 2007 opening balance of retained earnings. This amount will be recognized as income over the remaining terms of the affected leases, 2007 to 2021, and is not expected to be material in any year.
     FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), which is an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS No. 109 does not prescribe a recognition threshold or measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken in a tax return. FIN 48 clarifies the application of SFAS No. 109 by defining criteria that an individual tax position must meet for any tax benefit to be recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, GATX recorded a decrease in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits and a corresponding increase of $11.0 million to the 2007 opening balance of retained earnings. See Note 10 for additional information.
     FSP AUG AIR-1, Accounting for Planned Major Maintenance Activities. FSP AUG AIR-1 amends prior guidance on the accounting for planned major maintenance activities; specifically it precludes the use of the previously acceptable “accrue in advance” method. In accordance with this FSP, GATX has retrospectively restated its financial statements, establishing a prepaid asset for five-year survey costs on ASC vessels and increasing its 2006 opening balance of retained earnings by $3.8 million, net of taxes. The impact on financial results for 2006 and 2007 was not material.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
     New Accounting Pronouncements
     In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and expands disclosure requirements related to the use of fair value measurements. The statement is effective for financial statements issued in 2008; however, earlier application is encouraged. The application of SFAS 157 is not expected to be material to the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
     In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS 159”) which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The statement is effective as of the beginning of the fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 159 but does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 159 will have a material impact on its financial position, cash flows, or results of operations.
NOTE 3. Investments in Affiliated Companies
     Investments in affiliated companies represent investments in, and loans to and from, domestic and foreign companies and joint ventures that are in businesses similar to those of GATX. Such businesses include lease financing and related services for customers operating rail, marine and industrial equipment assets, as well as other business activities, such as ventures that provide asset residual value guarantees in both domestic and foreign markets.

NOTE 5. Commercial Commitments
     In connection with certain investments or transactions, GATX has entered into various commercial commitments, such as guarantees and standby letters of credit, which may require performance in the event of demands by third parties. Similar to GATX’s balance sheet investments, these commitments expose GATX to credit, market and equipment risk; accordingly, GATX evaluates its commitments and other contingent obligations using techniques similar to those used to evaluate funded transactions.
     The following table sets forth GATX’s commercial commitments of continuing operations as of (in millions):
                 
    June 30     December 31  
    2007     2006  
Affiliate guarantees
  $ 24.2     $ 24.2  
Asset residual value guarantees
    135.3       144.5  
Lease payment guarantees
    70.3       20.8

Total guarantees
    307.6       267.3  
Standby letters of credit and bonds
    14.5       15.8  
 
           
 
  $ 322.1     $ 283.1  
 
           
     At June 30, 2007, the maximum potential amount of guarantees under which GATX could be required to perform was $307.6 million. The related carrying value of the guarantees on the balance sheet, was a liability of $13.5 million. The expirations of these guarantees range from 2007 to 2019.
     Affiliate guarantees generally involve guaranteeing repayment of the financing utilized by an affiliate to acquire or lease in assets, which are subsequently leased to third parties, and are in lieu of making direct equity investments in the affiliate. GATX is not aware of any event of default which would require it to satisfy these guarantees and expects the affiliates to generate sufficient cash flow to satisfy their lease and loan obligations.
     Asset residual value guarantees represent GATX’s commitment to third parties that an asset or group of assets will be worth a specified amount at the end of a lease term. Revenue, in the form of an initial fee (which is amortized into income over the guarantee period), is earned for providing these asset value guarantees and by sharing in any proceeds received upon disposition of the assets, to the extent such proceeds are in excess of the amount guaranteed. Any liability resulting from GATX’s performance pursuant to these guarantees will be reduced by the value realized from the underlying asset or group of assets.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)
Historically, gains associated with these guarantees have exceeded any losses. Based on known facts and current market conditions, management does not believe that these guarantees will result in any significant adverse financial impact to the Company. GATX believes that these guarantees will likely generate future income in the form of fees and residual sharing proceeds.
     Lease payment guarantees represent GATX’s guarantees to financial institutions of finance and operating lease payments of unrelated parties.
     Other consists of GATX’s indemnification of Airbus Industrie (“Airbus”) related to the dissolution of Flightlease Holdings Limited (“FHG”) and the allocation by Airbus of $77.8 million of pre-delivery payments to GATX towards the purchase of aircraft in 2001. These pre-delivery payments are the subject of active litigation. No liability has been recorded with respect to this indemnification as GATX believes that the likelihood of having to perform under the indemnity is remote.
     GATX and its subsidiaries are also parties to standing letters of credit and bonds primarily related to workers’ compensation and general liability insurance coverage. No material claims have been made against these obligations. At June 30, 2007, GATX does not expect any material losses to result from these off balance sheet instruments because performance is not anticipated to be required.
NOTE 6. Variable Interest Entities
     GATX has ownership interests in certain investments that are considered Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”) in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN 46(R)”). GATX does not believe it is the primary beneficiary with respect to any of the VIEs. As a result, GATX does not consolidate these entities. These entities are generally involved in railcar and equipment leasing activities. The nature of GATX’s involvement with these entities primarily consists of equity investments and leveraged leases which were acquired or entered into between 1994 and 2006. GATX continues to evaluate new investments for the application of FIN 46(R) and regularly reviews all existing VIEs in connection with any reconsideration events as defined in FIN 46(R) that may result in GATX becoming the primary beneficiary. GATX’s maximum exposure to loss with respect to these VIEs is approximately $152.6 million, of which $128.4 million was the aggregate carrying value of these investments recorded on the balance sheet at June 30, 2007.
NOTE 7. Comprehensive Income

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, total share-based compensation expense was $3.2 million ($2.0 million after tax) and $5.2 million ($3.2 million after tax), respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, total share-based compensation expense was $2.3 million ($1.4 million after tax) and $4.2 million ($2.6 million after tax), respectively.

NOTE 9. Capital Structure and Earnings Per Share
     During the six months ended June 30, 2007, $124.3 million of 7.5% convertible notes matured resulting in a cash payment equal to the principal balance and the issuance of 1.0 million shares of GATX common stock representing the difference between GATX’s stock price at the time of conversion and the conversion price (the “conversion premium”). Additionally, $18.2 million of 5% convertible notes were converted, resulting in a cash payment for the principal balance and 0.4 million shares issued for the conversion premium. At June 30, 2007, $106.8 million of 5% convertible notes were outstanding, which were convertible into 4,304,004 common shares at a price of $24.81 per share.
     On January 5, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a $300 million common stock repurchase program. As of June 30, 2007, 4.0 million shares have been repurchased for $192.0 million. The repurchased shares were recorded as treasury stock under the cost method.
     Basic earnings per share were computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Shares issued during the period and shares reacquired during the period, if applicable, were weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings per share were computed using the treasury stock method and include the impact of potentially dilutive securities, including stock options, SARs and restricted stock.

NOTE 10. Income Taxes
     GATX adopted the provisions of FIN 48 as of January 1, 2007, resulting in an $11.0 million decrease in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits and a corresponding increase to the 2007 opening balance of retained earnings. As of June 30, 2007, GATX’s gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits totaled $42.8 million, which, if fully recognized, would decrease income tax expense by $30.6 million ($24.8 million net of federal tax benefits).
     GATX files numerous consolidated and separate income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, as well as various state and foreign jurisdictions. During 2006, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) commenced an examination of the Company’s U.S. consolidated income tax returns for years 2003 through 2005, which is expected to be completed by the end of 2008. Additionally, the IRS substantially completed its audit of the Company’s income tax returns for the years 1998 through 2002. As part of this audit, the Company entered the IRS appeals process to address one disputed issue. GATX believes that its tax position related to this issue was proper based upon applicable statutes, regulations and case law, but anticipates that it is reasonably possible that the IRS may propose an adjustment with respect to this matter. The Company does not anticipate that the resolution of this matter, including potential litigation, will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. All examinations with respect to U.S. tax returns for years prior to 1998 have been closed.
     Subject to the completion of certain audits or the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, the Company believes it is reasonably possible that, within the next 12 months, unrecognized federal tax benefits of $3.1 million, state tax benefits of $6.5 million and foreign tax benefits of $2.3 million may be recognized. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of June 30, 2007, the gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits included $7.7 million related to interest. No amounts have been accrued for penalties. To the extent interest is not assessed with respect to uncertain tax positions, amounts accrued will be reduced and recorded as a reduction of income tax expense.
NOTE 11. Financial Data of Business Segments
     The financial data presented below conforms to SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, and depicts the profitability, financial position and capital expenditures of each of GATX’s continuing business segments.
     GATX leases, manages, operates, and invests in long-lived, widely used assets in the rail, marine and industrial equipment markets. Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, GATX has three financial reporting segments: Rail, Specialty and ASC.
     Rail is principally engaged in leasing tank and freight railcars and locomotives. Rail primarily provides railcars pursuant to full-service leases, under which it maintains the railcars, pays ad valorem taxes and insurance, and provides other ancillary services. Rail also offers net leases for railcars and most of its locomotives, in which case the lessee is responsible for maintenance, insurance and taxes.
     The Specialty portfolio consists primarily of leases, affiliate investments, loans and interests in residual values involving a variety of underlying asset types, including marine vessels, aircraft, rail, industrial and other equipment. The portfolio provides recurring lease and interest income and periodic income primarily related to the remarketing of assets.
     ASC operates a fleet of self-unloading marine vessels on the Great Lakes and is exclusively engaged in the waterborne transportation of dry bulk commodities.
     Segment profit is an internal performance measure used by the Chief Executive Officer to assess the performance of each segment in a given period. Segment profit includes all revenues, including affiliate earnings, attributable to the segments, as well as ownership and operating costs that management believes are directly associated with the maintenance or operation of the revenue earning assets. Operating costs include maintenance costs, marine operating costs, asset impairment charges and other operating costs such as litigation, provisions for losses, environmental costs, and asset storage costs. Segment profit excludes selling, general and administrative expenses, income taxes and certain other amounts not allocated to the segments.
     GATX allocates debt balances and related interest expense to each operating segment based upon a fixed recourse leverage level expressed as a ratio of recourse debt (including off balance sheet debt) to equity. The leverage levels for Rail, Specialty and ASC are 4:1, 3:1 and 1.5:1, respectively. Management believes that by utilizing this leverage and interest expense allocation methodology, each operating segment’s financial performance reflects an appropriate risk-adjusted cost of capital and is presented on a comparable basis.

Business Overview
     GATX Corporation (“GATX” or the “Company”) leases, manages, operates, and invests in long-lived, widely used assets in the rail, marine and industrial equipment markets. Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, GATX has three financial reporting segments: Rail, Specialty and American Steamship Company (“ASC”). The Company’s former Air and Technology segments have been segregated and presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See “Discontinued Operations” for additional information.
     During the second quarter of 2007, GATX Financial Corporation (“GFC”) merged into its parent company, GATX Corporation. This action simplified GATX’s corporate structure and eliminated certain redundancies and costs. All outstanding debt and other direct financial obligations of GFC became the direct obligations of GATX.
     Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2007, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the entire year ending December 31, 2007. For further information, refer to GATX’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Segment Operations
     Segment profit is an internal performance measure used by the Chief Executive Officer to assess the performance of each segment in a given period. Segment profit includes all revenues, including affiliate earnings, attributable to the segments, as well as ownership and operating costs that management believes are directly associated with the maintenance or operation of the revenue earning assets. Operating costs include maintenance costs, marine operating costs, asset impairment charges and other operating costs such as litigation, provisions for losses, environmental costs, and asset storage costs. Segment profit excludes selling, general and administrative expenses, income taxes and certain other amounts not allocated to the segments; these items are discussed below under Other.
     GATX allocates debt balances and related interest expense to each segment based upon a fixed recourse leverage level expressed as a ratio of recourse debt (including off balance sheet debt) to equity. The leverage levels for Rail, Specialty and ASC are 4:1, 3:1 and 1.5:1, respectively. Management believes that by utilizing this leverage and interest expense allocation methodology, each operating segment’s financial performance reflects an appropriate risk-adjusted cost of capital and is presented on a consistent basis from period to period.
Rail
Segment Summary
     In the second quarter of 2007, Rail continued to benefit from favorable overall market conditions.
     In North America, favorable market conditions enabled Rail to continue to achieve renewal success and lease rate increases over prior expiring rates. Average renewal lease rates on a basket of common car types increased 14.3% over the average expiring lease rates, compared to 18.6% for the first quarter of 2007 and 14.3% for the entire year of 2006. Additionally, Rail continued its emphasis on lengthening lease terms on renewals, the objective of which is to reduce future earnings volatility. Rail’s average term on renewals for the basket was 70 months, compared to 65 months for the second quarter of 2006 and 72 months for the first quarter of 2007. North American fleet utilization decreased slightly from 98.1% at the end of the first quarter to 98.0%, reflecting softness in selected market segments. In particular, freight cars serving the construction industry experienced weakness, and coal cars were modestly over-supplied due to aggressive speculative investment by certain operating lessors. Also, delays in completing ethanol plants were creating a surplus of ethanol tank cars and certain large covered hoppers used to carry ethanol by-products. While the weakness is not expected to have a material impact on 2007 results, GATX is monitoring these developments and the potential impact on longer-term results. At the end of the quarter, GATX had an immaterial number of idle tank cars serving the ethanol market. Additionally, Rail is capitalizing on high asset valuations by selectively selling certain assets, resulting in higher asset remarketing income in 2007 as well as a stronger railcar portfolio.
     The European rail market demonstrated increasing strength during the second quarter. Lease rate increases were achieved by both GATX Rail Europe and its joint venture affiliate, AAE Cargo (“AAE”), and fleet utilization for GATX Rail Europe increased from 95.6% at the end of the first quarter to 96.3%, as demand remained strong across all railcar types and backlogs at railcar manufacturers lengthened. The strength in the European rail market is being driven by strong overall European economic conditions, increasing pressure on highway transport due to congestion and environmental concerns and aggressive efforts by rail freight operators, utilizing Europe’s open access market model, to migrate shipping patterns from historical highway transportation to railway transportation.
     During the first six months of 2007, Rail invested $191.2 million compared to $161.6 million for the first six months of 2006.

Comparison of the First Six Months of 2007 to the First Six Months of 2006
Segment Profit
     Rail’s segment profit rose 12% or $14.3 million over 2006. The increase resulted primarily from the effects of lease rate increases and active fleet growth achieved in 2006 and 2007. Rail also took advantage of current market conditions and sold certain locomotives and less desirable railcar types resulting in an increase in asset remarketing income. These amounts were partially offset by higher costs associated with owning and operating a larger fleet.
Gross Income
     Rail’s gross income of $469.8 million for the first six months of 2007 was $36.0 million higher than the prior year.
     In North America, lease income increased $20.0 million, reflecting the effects of lease rate increases experienced over the past 12 months and an average of approximately 1,900 more railcars on lease. In Europe, lease income increased $9.1 million, of which $5.3 million was the result of stronger foreign exchange rates and $3.8 million was due to an average of over 1,000 additional railcars on lease. Asset remarketing income was $7.8 million higher primarily due to the sale of select, less desirable assets in 2007.
     The comparison of affiliate earnings between the two periods was significantly impacted by market value adjustments on a hedging derivative at AAE. In the prior period, gains of $3.7 million were recognized, whereas in the current period losses of $1.5 million were recognized. Excluding the effect of these adjustments from both periods, affiliate earnings increased $4.8 million from the prior year. The increase was primarily due to higher operating income at AAE, the recovery of a portion of a previously written off investment in an affiliate and the absence of depreciation on certain railcars at a North American affiliate that became fully depreciated during the prior year.
Ownership Costs
     Ownership costs for the first six months of 2007 increased $11.0 million, primarily due to higher depreciation and interest associated with investment volume of approximately $560 million over the last 12 months. The comparative mix of ownership costs was affected by the purchase at the end of the first and second quarters of 2006 of approximately 4,700 railcars that previously had been leased in under operating leases for an aggregate cost of $260.9 million.
Operating Costs
     Maintenance expense for the first six months of 2007 increased $6.5 million, largely the result of higher repair volume, primarily due to a larger active fleet, higher costs for repairs performed by railroads and increased component prices for regular maintenance and conversion work. In North America, average maintenance cost per car was higher due to increased costs from vendors, including railroads, as well as the type of repair work being performed. In Europe, maintenance expense increased due to higher repair volume, including required regulatory maintenance. The impact of stronger foreign exchange rates also contributed to the increase. Other operating expenses for the first six months of 2007 increased $4.5 million primarily due to the remeasurement of nonfunctional currency assets and liabilities in each period. Higher switching costs on the larger fleet also contributed to the increase.

Comparison of the Second Quarter 2007 to the Second Quarter 2006
Segment Profit
     Rail’s segment profit for the second quarter rose 6% or $4.1 million over the prior year. The increase primarily resulted from the effects of lease rate increases and active fleet growth achieved in 2006 and 2007. These amounts were partially offset by the costs associated with owning and operating a larger fleet.
Gross Income
     Rail’s gross income of $236.0 million for the second quarter 2007 was $16.9 million higher than the prior year.
     In North America, lease income increased $9.5 million, reflecting the effects of lease rate increases experienced over the past 12 months and an average of approximately 1,800 more railcars on lease. In Europe, lease income increased $5.2 million, of which $2.8 million was the result of stronger foreign exchange rates and $2.4 million was due to an average of over 1,300 additional railcars on lease. Asset remarketing income was $4.1 million higher due to the sale in 2007 of certain less desirable railcar types.
     The comparison of affiliate earnings between the two quarters was particularly impacted by market value adjustments on a hedging derivative at AAE. In the prior period, gains of $3.7 million were recognized, whereas in the current period losses of $1.5 million were recognized. Excluding the effect of these adjustments from both periods, affiliate earnings increased $3.0 million from the prior year. The increase was primarily due to higher operating income at AAE, the recovery of a portion of a previously written off investment in an affiliate and the absence of depreciation on certain railcars at a North American affiliate that became fully depreciated during the prior year.
Ownership Costs
     Ownership costs for the second quarter of 2007 increased $4.9 million, primarily due to depreciation and interest associated with investment volume of approximately $560 million over the last 12 months. The comparative mix of ownership costs was affected by the purchase at the end of the second quarter of 2006 of approximately 2,000 railcars that previously had been leased in under operating leases.
Operating Costs
     Maintenance expense for the second quarter of 2007 increased $5.3 million, largely the result of higher repair volume, primarily due to a larger active fleet, higher costs for repairs performed by railroads and increased component prices for regular maintenance and conversion work. In North America, maintenance cost per car was, on average, higher due to increased costs from vendors, including railroads, as well as the type of repair work being performed In Europe, maintenance expense increased due to higher repair volume including required regulatory maintenance. The impact of stronger foreign exchange rates also contributed to the increase. Other operating expenses increased $2.7 million primarily due to the remeasurement losses of nonfunctional currency assets and liabilities in each period. Higher switching costs on the larger fleet also contributed to the increase.
Specialty
Segment Summary
     Specialty’s total asset base, including off balance sheet assets, was $489.3 million at June 30, 2007, compared to $492.2 million at June 30, 2006. Specialty continued to experience strong performance in its marine joint ventures and investment opportunities increased, resulting in portfolio additions of $45.8 million in 2007, including $24.0 million of industrial equipment and $18.8 million of marine assets. Specialty’s asset base in 2007 was impacted by the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Staff Position FAS 13-2, Accounting for a Change or Projected Change in the Timing of Cash Flows Relating to Income Taxes Generated by a Leveraged Lease Transaction, which resulted in a reduction of leveraged lease assets of $15.1 million. See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information on the effects of this pronouncement. The estimated net book value equivalent of managed assets was $448.6 million at June 30, 2007.

Comparison of the First Six Months of 2007 to the First Six Months of 2006
Segment Profit
     Specialty’s segment profit for the first six months of 2007 was $6.8 million lower than the prior year, primarily due to the absence of a $14.0 million residual sharing fee from the managed portfolio received in the prior year, partially offset by current year growth in affiliate earnings.
Gross Income
     Gross income for 2007 was $5.9 million lower than the prior year. Lease income of $24.2 million was $5.3 million higher than the prior year, primarily due to income from investments in operating lease assets made in 2006 and 2007. Asset remarketing income was $14.2 million lower than the prior year, primarily due to the $14.0 million residual sharing fee received in the prior year. Fee income decreased $1.5 million, primarily due to lower managed assets resulting from prior year sales in the portfolio. Share of affiliate earnings increased $6.3 million from the prior year, primarily due to higher marine joint venture operating income.

Table of Contents

Ownership Costs
     Ownership costs were $1.1 million higher than the prior year, primarily as a result of an increase in depreciation due to new investments in operating lease assets made in 2006 and 2007, partially offset by lower interest expense primarily related to lower debt levels.
Operating Costs
     Asset impairment charges were related to residual value guarantees in the current year and certain cost method investments in the prior year. Other operating expenses in the prior year included the reversal of a $2.2 million loss provision and $0.9 million of previously accrued barge property taxes. Excluding these reversals, other operating costs were $1.9 million lower than the prior year primarily due to favorable fair value adjustments for warrants, partially offset by higher marine operating costs.
Comparison of Second Quarter 2007 to Second Quarter 2006
Segment Profit
     Specialty’s segment profit for the second quarter of 2007 was $5.1 million higher than the prior year, primarily due to remarketing gains associated with the early buyout of leveraged lease assets.
Gross Income
     Gross income for the second quarter of 2007 was $8.3 million higher than the prior year. Lease income was $2.5 million higher, primarily due to income from operating lease investments made in 2006 and 2007. Asset remarketing income was $5.3 million higher, primarily due to current year remarketing gains from the early buyout of leveraged lease assets. Share of affiliate earnings increased $2.3 million, primarily due to higher marine joint venture operating income.
Ownership Costs
     Ownership costs for the second quarter of 2007 were $0.8 million higher than the prior year, primarily as a result of an increase in depreciation due to new investments in operating lease assets made in 2006 and 2007.
Operating Costs
     Other operating expenses of $3.1 million for the second quarter of 2007 were $2.4 million higher than the prior year, primarily as a result of prior year reversals of a $2.2 million loss provision and $0.9 million of previously accrued barge property taxes.
ASC
Segment Summary
     In June 2006, ASC acquired six vessels from Oglebay Norton Marine Services. These vessels operated throughout the current year sailing season compared to only 25 days in the prior year. Difficult weather conditions contributed to a delayed start to the current year sailing season, however, all vessels are fully utilized and demand on the Great Lakes, with the exception of some softness in the limestone sector, remains high.

Comparison of the First Six Months of 2007 to the First Six Months of 2006.
Segment Profit
     ASC’s segment profit for the first six months of 2007 decreased $2.6 million from the prior year. The variance was primarily attributable to current year winter maintenance costs for the six vessels acquired in 2006. These costs were excluded from ASC’s operations in 2006 due to the timing of the acquisition.
Gross Income
     Gross income for the first six months of 2007 increased $17.2 million from the prior year. The increase was primarily due to a full period of operation for the acquired vessels. Average freight rate increases, reflecting both real rate growth and the recovery of increases in fuel costs, also contributed to the increase. Offsetting this increase somewhat, was the negative impact of weather delays at the outset of the 2007 sailing season.
Ownership Costs
     ASC’s ownership costs for the first six months of 2007 increased $3.7 million from the prior year. Depreciation and interest expense related to the acquired vessels increased $1.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively, reflecting a full period of expense recognition.

Table of Contents

Operating Costs
     Operating costs for the first six months of 2007 increased $16.1 million from the prior year. The variance was primarily due to a full period of operation for the six acquired vessels, which resulted in additional marine operating expense of approximately $13.0 million. ASC also experienced higher fuel costs, which are largely offset by fuel cost escalators attached to freight rates, and increased vessel labor costs. Maintenance expense increased primarily as a result of winter maintenance costs of $1.2 million for the acquired vessels that were recorded in the current year. These costs were excluded from ASC’s operations in 2006 due to the timing of the acquisition.
Comparison of Second Quarter 2007 to Second Quarter 2006
Segment Profit
     ASC’s segment profit for the second quarter of 2007 decreased $1.6 million from the prior year. The decrease was primarily attributable to current year winter maintenance costs for the six vessels acquired in 2006. These costs were excluded from ASC’s operations in 2006 due to the timing of the acquisition. Current period results include a full quarter of operations for the acquired vessels compared to 25 days of operations in June of the prior year.
Gross Income
     Gross income for the second quarter of 2007 increased $18.0 million from the prior year. The increase was primarily due to a full quarter of operation for the acquired vessels. Average freight rate increases across all commodities, reflecting both real rate growth and recovery of increases in fuel costs, also contributed to the increase. Offsetting this increase somewhat, was the negative impact of weather delays at the outset of the 2007 sailing season.
Ownership Costs
     Ownership costs for the second quarter of 2007 increased $2.5 million from the prior year. Depreciation and interest expense related to the acquired vessels increased $1.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively, reflecting a full quarter of expense recognition.
Operating Costs
     Operating costs for the second quarter of 2007 increased $17.1 million from the prior year. The increase was primarily due to a full quarter of operation for the six acquired vessels, which resulted in additional marine operating expense of approximately $12.5 million. ASC also experienced higher fuel costs, which were largely offset by fuel cost escalation provisions included in ASC’s customer contracts, and increased vessel labor costs. Maintenance expense increased primarily as a result of winter maintenance costs of $1.2 million for the acquired vessels that were recorded in the current year. These costs were excluded from ASC’s operations in 2006 due to the timing of their acquisition.
Other
     Other is comprised of unallocated interest expense, selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”), miscellaneous income and expense not directly associated with the reporting segments and eliminations.

SG&A, Unallocated Interest and Other
     For the first six months of 2007, SG&A increased $5.1 million, primarily due to the recognition in 2007 of $1.6 million of severance costs related to corporate staff reductions following the sale of Air, and, in the prior year, the combination of favorable adjustments of certain accruals and refunds received on prior year benefit claims. In the second quarter of 2007, SG&A increased $0.9 million, primarily due to higher compensation and severance expenses.
     Unallocated interest expense is the balance of external interest expense remaining after allocation to the segments based on assigned leverage targets. The unallocated amount is a function of GATX’s consolidated leverage compared to the combined leverage of the reporting segments. Consolidated leverage was greater than the segments in 2006, but materially less than the segments in 2007, primarily resulting from the repayment of debt following the sale of Air. Thus, unallocated interest expense was a credit in 2007 compared to an expense in 2006.
Income Taxes
     GATX’s effective tax rate for continuing operations was 36% for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to 31% for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The variance in the rate was primarily due to a $5.9 million deferred tax benefit recognized in 2006, attributable to a reduction in the Canadian statutory rate.
     On January 1, 2007, GATX adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), which is an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS No. 109 does not prescribe a recognition threshold or measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken in a tax return. FIN 48 clarifies the application of SFAS No. 109 by defining criteria that an individual tax position must meet for any tax benefit to be recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, GATX recorded a decrease in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits and a corresponding increase of $11.0 million to the 2007 opening balance of retained earnings. See Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Discontinued Operations
     Discontinued operations consist of the Company’s former Air and Technology segments. On January 17, 2007, GATX completed the sale of its Air joint ventures for gross proceeds of $227.1 million.

Cash Flow and Liquidity
     Over the course of a full year, GATX expects to generate significant cash flow from a combination of operating activities and investment portfolio proceeds. This cash flow is used to service debt, pay dividends, and fund portfolio investments and capital additions. Cash flow from operations and portfolio proceeds are impacted by changes in working capital and the timing of asset dispositions. As a result, cash flow components will vary quarter to quarter. The following discussion of cash flow activity is presented excluding the impact of discontinued operations.
     Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations for the first six months of 2007 was $158.5 million, an increase of $49.3 million from the prior year period primarily due to higher lease income and allocated tax benefits. During 2007, GATX expects to fully utilize its NOL and AMT credit carryforwards. As a result, GATX made estimated federal income tax payments of $7.4 million in the second quarter, which reflected payments of $25.3 million allocated to discontinued operations and benefits of $17.9 million allocated to continuing operations. No federal income tax payments or benefits were reflected in 2006 cash flows.

Table of Contents

     Portfolio investments and capital additions for the first six months of 2007 totaled $239.7 million, a decrease of $107.6 million from the comparable 2006 period. Rail investments of $191.2 million were $29.6 million higher than the prior year, while Specialty investments of $45.8 million were $8.6 million lower. Additionally, in 2006, ASC invested $127.6 million primarily related to the acquisition of six marine vessels from Oglebay Norton Marine Services.
     Portfolio proceeds of $136.5 million for the first six months of 2007 increased $77.4 million from the prior year period primarily due to proceeds received from the maturity of investment securities and asset remarketing, partially offset by lower loan payments.
     Repayments of debt were $175.2 million in 2007 and were primarily attributable to the principal repaid for convertible notes. In the first six months of 2007, GATX also repurchased 4.0 million shares of its common stock for $192.0 million.
     Net cash provided by discontinued operations of $191.0 million in 2007 consisted primarily of proceeds received upon completion of the Air sale, partially offset by allocated income taxes.
     GATX also expects to meet debt, lease and dividend obligations through commercial paper issuances, committed revolving credit facilities and the issuance of secured and unsecured debt. GATX utilizes both domestic and international banks and capital markets.
     In the second quarter of 2007, the existing senior unsecured revolving bank facility was amended and restated to extend the maturity from June of 2010 to May of 2012, increase the facility amount to $550 million and eliminate the net worth covenant. At June 30, 2007, availability under the credit facility was $535.5 million, with $14.5 million of letters of credit issued, backed by the facility and no commercial paper outstanding. The revolving credit facility contains various restrictive covenants, which apply to GATX, including an asset coverage test and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The indentures for GATX’s public debt, as well as agreements covering bank and other financings also contain various restrictive covenants and certain negative pledge provisions. GATX does not anticipate any covenant violation in the credit facility, indentures, bank or other financings, nor does it anticipate that any of these covenants will restrict its operations or its ability to procure additional financing. At June 30, 2007, GATX was in compliance with all covenants and conditions of the credit facility and of the indentures and had $85.8 million of unrestricted cash.
     The availability of GATX’s funding options may be affected by certain factors, including the global capital market environment and outlook as well as GATX’s financial performance. GATX’s access to capital markets at competitive rates is dependent on its credit rating and rating outlook, as determined by rating agencies such as Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) and Moody’s Investor Service (“Moody’s”). As of June 30, 2007, GATX’s long-term unsecured debt was rated BBB+ by S&P and Baa1 by Moody’s. GATX’s short-term unsecured debt was rated A-2 by S&P and P-2 by Moody’s. GATX’s rating outlook from both agencies was stable.
     At June 30, 2007, GATX’s unconditional purchase obligations of $572.7 million were primarily for railcars to be acquired and were comprised as follows (in millions):

Critical Accounting Policies
     Since December 31, 2006, there have been no changes to GATX’s critical accounting policies. Refer to GATX’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, for a summary of GATX’s policies.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
     This report includes references to off balance sheet assets or off balance sheet debt, which are computed using non-GAAP components as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Off balance sheet assets refer to assets leased in under operating leases, which are not recorded on the balance sheet. Off balance sheet debt refers to the estimated underlying obligation associated with the leased-in assets. GATX estimates the asset and obligation amount by calculating the present value of committed future operating lease payments using the interest rate implicit in each lease. Off balance sheet assets and the related debt are used in the calculation of leverage for each segment, which affects the amount of interest expense that is allocated to the segments. This calculation is not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP and may be different from, or inconsistent with, calculations used by other companies.

AMENDMENTS The Sale and Purchase Agreement is amended as follows: 2.1 The introductory clause of Clause 2.2 is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows: "Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, on the Closing Date (or, (i) with respect to any Material Contract related to any Deferred Partnership Asset Owning Entity, the relevant Deferred Date or (ii) with respect to any other Additional Assets, such other date as Buyer and Seller may agree), Seller shall, or shall cause an Other Selling Party to, sell, assign, convey, transfer and deliver to Buyer or, if so requested by Buyer, to an Affiliate of Buyer reasonably acceptable to Seller, and Buyer shall, or shall cause the relevant Affiliate of Buyer as aforesaid to, purchase, acquire, accept and assume, all of the right, title and interest of the applicable Selling Party in and to the following (collectively, the "ADDITIONAL ASSETS"), as such Additional Assets exist on the Closing Date (or the relevant Deferred Date or other date as Buyer or Seller may agree, as the case may be):". 2.2 The introductory clause of Clause 2.5 is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows: "Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Buyer agrees that it shall, or it shall cause its Affiliate to whom any Additional Assets related to any of the Liabilities described below are transferred pursuant to Clause 2.2 of this Agreement to, effective at the Closing (or such other dated as Buyer and Seller may agree) to assume from the Selling Parties and to satisfy and discharge when due the following specific Liabilities, other than the Retained Liabilities (the "ASSUMED LIABILITIES"):" 2.3 The following provision is hereby inserted as Clause 2.11: "2.11 Transfers to Affiliates Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, it is understood and agreed that if and to the extent any Additional Assets are transferred to an Affiliate of Buyer (rather than to Buyer itself) pursuant to the terms of Clause 2.2 and/or an -2- Affiliate of Buyer (rather than Buyer itself) assumes any Assumed Liabilities pursuant to the terms of Clause 2.5, Buyer shall nonetheless remain directly obligated for all of its obligations hereunder, including with respect to such Additional Assets.". 2.4 Clause 6.5.1 is hereby amended as follows: Subject to Seller's receipt of the payment contemplated by the following sentence, Buyer and Seller agree that, in respect of that certain Focused Air Aircraft Airbus A320-200 aircraft bearing manufacturer's serial number 331 (the "Affected Aircraft"), the provisions of Clause 6.5.1 of the Sale and Purchase Agreement related to proceeds from the sale of the Affected Aircraft are no longer effective and Seller shall have no right to a payment in respect of the sale of the Affected Aircraft under said Clause 6.5.1. As consideration for Seller waiving its right to any such payment, Buyer agrees that, concurrently with its purchase of the third-party interests in GATX/CL Air (the "Third-Party Interests"), Buyer shall pay Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to (a) $2,828,228.40 minus (b) the aggregate amount of all rental proceeds paid by Buyer to Seller pursuant to Clause 6.5.1 of the Sale and Purchase Agreement in respect of the Affected Aircraft between (and including) March 26, 2007 through (and including) the May 29, 2007) plus (c) the aggregate amount of all maintenance reserves and other payments made by Seller in respect of the Affected Aircraft between (and including) March 26, 2007 through (and including) the May 29, 2007) plus (d) interest accrued at 7% per annum from time to time on the amount equal to (a) minus (b) plus (c) from March 26, 2007 until the date Buyer pays such amount. Although Buyer is purchasing the Third-Party Interests on an aggregate basis and, therefore, the Affected Aircraft has not been individually valued in connection therewith, Buyer hereby represents and warrants to Seller that the amount that Seller is receiving for its share of the Affected Aircraft is, in Buyer's reasonable opinion, reasonably equivalent to the amount that the other partners of GATX / CL Air could reasonably be expected to allocate to the Affected Aircraft in connection with their sale of the Third-Party Interests to Buyer. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall continue to be obligated to pay Seller its portion of any incentive fees received by GATX/CL Air pursuant to the terms of Clause 6.5 of the Sale and Purchase Agreement. 2.5 The following provision is hereby added at the end of Clause 7.11: "It is the intention of Buyer and Seller that Seller's remarketing obligations under the A321 GTL Documents (the "Remarketing Obligations") be transferred to, and assumed by, Buyer. If a direct transfer of the Remarketing Obligations is not possible, then Buyer and Seller will in good faith determine an alternative structure (such as a subcontracting or similar arrangement) whereby Buyer performs the Remarketing Obligations on Seller's behalf. Regardless of the structure that is used, it is the intention of the parties that any benefits and liabilities associated with the Remarketing Obligations (including any payments received by Seller in connection with the Remarketing Obligations) be for the account of Buyer." -3- 3. ADDITIONAL DESIGNATED CONTRACTS 3.1 Each of Buyer and Seller agree that (i) the "Assigned Agreements" as defined in that certain Assignment and Assumption Agreement being entered into by Buyer and Seller on the date hereof and (ii) the following agreements (the agreements referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being the "Additional Designated Contracts") shall each be a "Designated Contract" for purposes of the Agreement: - Aircraft Maintenance and Modification Services Agreement dated January 26, 2006 between Seller and Southern California Aviation, LLC. - Licence entered into in September 17, 2003 between AMT-SYBEX (Software) Limited, as Licensor, and Seller, as Licensee. - Commercial SFE/BFE Proposal, dated May 24, 2006, between Seller and Honeywell International Inc. - Customer Services General Terms Agreement related to Boeing Aircraft dated 23 December 2002 between The Boeing Company and Seller (and related agreements) Each of Buyer and Seller agree that the amount owing by Seller to Buyer in connection with the working capital adjustment contemplated by Clause 6.1 hereof shall be reduced by $5,000 in order to reimburse Seller for certain out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees of outside counsel) incurred by Seller in connection with the transfer of the Additional Designated Contracts. 4. CLAIMS AGAINST VARIG 4.1 Each of Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that upon the execution of this Sixth Supplemental Agreement and without any further action on the part of any party, any claims in bankruptcy that Seller or any of its Affiliates (including G3AC) have against Viacao Aerea Rio Grandense, S.A. (VARIG) with respect to an unpaid loan (balance $735,687), unpaid reserves (balance $966,327.69), return condition claims ($7,800,000) and/or unpaid rent (balance $810,000) (collectively, "Varig Claims") shall transfer to Buyer. Buyer shall promptly disburse to Seller 50% of any amounts (a) recovered by Buyer with respect to any Varig Claims or (b) received by Buyer from any sale of any Varig Claims, in each case net of expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with obtaining such recoveries or making such sales. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that Buyer shall have no obligation to take any actions with respect to or otherwise pursue any Varig Claims. If Buyer does pursue any Varig Claims, Seller shall provide Buyer with access to any documents in Seller's possession that Buyer may reasonably request in connection therewith. 5. TAX LEASES For the avoidance of doubt and without limiting the provisions of Clauses 7.11 and 7.12, Buyer shall continue to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the release of Seller from the guarantees referenced in Clauses 7.11 and 7.12. 6. WORKING CAPITAL ADJUSTMENT 6.1 Buyer and Seller hereby agree that attached as Exhibit A to this Seventh Supplement Agreement is a document setting forth the Closing Working Capital as agreed upon -4- by Buyer and Seller (the "Final Closing Working Capital"). Notwithstanding the previous sentence, each of Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that they have not yet reached agreement on the treatment of the following two items for purposes of the calculation of the Final Closing Working Capital: (x) a payment in the amount of $343,535.67 received by Seller on November 28, 2006 and (y) a transposition error in the amount of $4,000 on a Vueling Payment (collectively, the "Disputed Items"). Each of Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that they shall work in good faith to reach agreement with respect to the Disputed Items as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof. In accordance with the terms the Sale and Purchase Agreement and based on the calculation of the Final Closing Working Capital (as modified by the resolution of the Disputed Items if applicable), Buyer and Seller further hereby agree that Seller shall, promptly after the resolution of the Disputed Items, pay to Buyer an amount ranging from $1,169,416.82 or $881,821.15 (depending on the resolution of the Disputed Items) plus interest thereon as determined in accordance with Clause 2.8 of the Sale and Purchase Agreement (the "Working Capital Settlement Amount"). Each of Buyer and Seller hereby acknowledge and agree that the payment of the Working Capital Settlement Amount by Seller to Buyer represents the final settlement of any claims among the parties with respect to the Working Capital of the Business (whether pursuant to the Sale and Purchase Agreement or otherwise) and, effective upon payment by Seller to Buyer of the agreed Working Capital Settlement Amount, each of Buyer and Seller (on behalf of themselves and their respective Affiliates) hereby fully and unconditionally releases the other party (and such other party's respective Affiliates) from any such claims. 7. SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENTS 7.1 In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of either of the Omnibus Agreements or any of the Assignment and Assumption Agreements or other conveyance documents delivered at the Closing, the Deferred Closing or at any other time in connection with the Sale and Purchase Agreement, on the one hand, and the Sale and Purchase Agreement, on the other hand, with respect to the respective rights and obligations of Seller and Buyer as against the other, the terms of the Sale and Purchase Agreement shall prevail. 8. MISCELLANEOUS 8.1 The provisions of Clauses 13.1, 13.2, 13.3, 13.4, 13.5, 13.6, 13.8 and 13.10 are hereby deemed to be incorporated herein as if all references therein to "this Agreement" were references to this Seventh Supplemental Agreement. 8.2 References to "this Agreement" in the Sale and Purchase Agreement are deemed to be references to the Sale and Purchase Agreement as amended by this Seventh Supplemental Agreement. -5- IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties to this Seventh Supplemental Agreement have caused this Seventh Supplemental Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
