Textainer Group Holdings Limited Closes Acquisition of Leased Assets Pool Company Limited


HAMILTON, Bermuda – January 2, 2020 (PRNewswire) – Textainer Group Holdings Limited (NYSE:
TGH) (“Textainer”, “the Company”, “we” and “our”), one of the world’s largest lessors of intermodal
containers, today announced that on December 31, 2019 the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary,
Textainer Limited, completed the purchase of Leased Assets Pool Company Limited (“LAPCO”). Textainer
previously announced entering an agreement on December 2, 2019 for the purchase of LAPCO for an equity
value of approximately $66 million in cash (constituting assets of $192 million less outstanding debt of
$126 million). The Company repaid LAPCO’s existing debt at the closing by refinancing this debt in
Textainer Limited’s revolving credit facility.

LAPCO owns a fleet of approximately 163,000 TEU (twenty-foot equivalent units) of intermodal containers
managed by Textainer and approximately 3,000 TEU of containers managed by other container lessors.
LAPCO was an indirect subsidiary of Trencor Limited, which owns approximately 5% of Textainer’s
common shares. The percentage of Textainer’s owned fleet increased to 85.4% from 80.8% upon the
closing.
