Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 7, 2020, GATX Corporation ("GATX", "we", "us" or "our") entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Rand Logistics, Inc. (the "Buyer").  Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, we will sell to the Buyer the subsidiaries comprising our American Steamship Company ("ASC") business segment.  The consideration to be paid by the Buyer for ASC is $260 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments provided for in the Purchase Agreement, including a working capital adjustment.  The parties' obligations to consummate the transaction are subject to customary conditions, including expiration or termination of the waiting period under U.S. antitrust law.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference.  Investors should not rely on the representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement, as those representations and warranties were made solely for purposes of the Purchase Agreement, are solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement and may not have been intended to be statements of fact but rather a way of allocating risk between the parties.
