ITEM 1.01 Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement
GATX Corporation (“GATX”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting
Agreement”), with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, as representatives of
the several underwriters listed therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), dated September 15,
2011, pursuant to which GATX agreed to sell and the Underwriters agreed to purchase, subject to and
upon terms and conditions set forth therein, $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.500%
Senior Notes due 2016 (the “New 2016 Notes”) and $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.850%
Senior Notes due 2021 (the “New 2021 Notes” and together with the New 2016 Notes, the “Notes”), as
described in the prospectus supplement dated September 15, 2011 filed pursuant to GATX’s shelf
registration statement on Form S-3, Registration No. 333-168879 (the “Registration Statement”).
The New 2016 Notes constitute a further issuance of the 3.500% Senior Notes due 2016, of which
$250,000,000 principal amount was issued on November 19, 2010 (the “Existing 2016 Notes”). The New
2016 Notes will form a single series with the Existing 2016 Notes and will have the same terms

the same CUSIP number and will trade interchangeably with the Existing 2016 Notes.

$250,000,000 principal amount was issued on May 27, 2011 (the “Existing 2021 Notes”). The New 2021
Notes will form a single series with the Existing 2021 Notes and will have the same terms other
than the initial offering price. Immediately upon settlement, the New 2021 Notes will have the same
CUSIP number and will trade interchangeably with the Existing 2021 Notes.
The Notes will be issued under the Indenture dated as of February 6, 2008 between GATX and
U.S. Bank National Association as trustee, and officers’ certificates providing for the issuance of
the Notes. The Underwriters are expected to deliver the Notes against payment on September 20,
