PART I ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS For more detailed information about the Registrant's business, see "Business of the Partnership" in the Registrant's Prospectus as supplemented. (a) General Development of Business The Registrant is a California Limited Partnership formed on July 11, 1989 to purchase, own, operate, lease, and sell equipment used in the containerized cargo shipping industry. The Registrant commenced offering units representing limited partnership interests (Units) to the public on November 8, 1989 in accordance with its Registration Statement and ceased to offer such Units as of January 15, 1991. The Registrant raised a total of $75,000,000 from the offering and invested a substantial portion of the money raised in equipment. The Registrant has since engaged in leasing this and other equipment in the international shipping industry. See Item 10 herein for a description of the Registrant's General Partners. See Item 7 herein for a description of current market conditions affecting the Registrant's business. (b) Financial Information About Industry Segments Inapplicable. (c) Narrative Description of Business (c)(1)(i) A container leasing company generally, and the Registrant specifically, is an operating business comparable to a rental car business. A customer can lease a car from a bank leasing department for a monthly charge which represents the cost of the car, plus interest,amortized over the term of the lease; or the customer can rent the same car from a rental car company at a much higher daily lease rate. The customer is willing to pay the higher daily rate for the convenience and value-added features provided by the rental car company, the most important of which is the ability to pick up the car where it is most convenient, use it for the desired period of time, and then drop it off at a location convenient to the customer. Rental car companies compete with one another on the basis of lease rates, availability of cars, and the provision of additional services. They generate revenues by maintaining the highest lease rates and the highest utilization factors that market conditions will allow, and by augmenting this income with proceeds from sales of insurance, drop-off fees, and other special charges. A large percentage of lease revenues earned by car rental companies are generated under corporate rate agreements wherein, for a stated period of time, employees of a participating corporation can rent car at specific terms, conditions and rental rates. Container leasing companies and the Registrant operate in a similar manner by owning a worldwide fleet of new and used transportation containers and leasing these containers to international shipping companies hauling various types of goods among numerous trade routes. All lessees pay a daily rental rate and in certain markets may pay special handling fees and/or drop-off charges. In addition to these fees and charges, a lessee must either provide physical damage and liability insurance or purchase a damage waiver from the Registrant, in which case the Registrant agrees to pay the cost of repairing any physical damage to containers caused by lessees. Container leasing companies compete with one another on the basis of lease rates, availability of equipment and services provided. To ensure the availability of equipment to its customers, container leasing companies and the Registrant may pay to reposition containers from low demand locations to higher demand locations. By maintaining the highest lease rates and the highest equipment utilization factors allowed by market conditions, the Registrant attempts to generate revenue and profit. The majority of the Registrant's equipment is leased under master leases, which are comparable to the corporate rate agreements used by rental car companies. The master leases provide that the lessee, for a specified period of time, may rent containers at specific terms, conditions and rental rates. Although the terms of the master lease governing each container under lease do not vary, the number of containers in use can vary from time to time within the term of the master lease. The terms and conditions of the master lease provide that the lessee pays a daily rental rate for the entire time the container is in his possession (whether or not he is actively using it), is responsible for any damage, and must insure the container against liabilities. For a more detailed discussion of the leases for the Registrant's equipment, see "Leasing Policy" under "Business of the Partnership" in the Registrant's Prospectus as supplemented. The Registrant also sells containers in the course of its business as opportunities arise, at the end of the container's useful life or if market and economic considerations indicate that a sale would be beneficial. See "Business of the Partnership" in Registrant's Prospectus, as supplemented. (c)(1)(ii) Inapplicable. (c)(1)(iii) Inapplicable. (c)(1)(iv) Inapplicable. (c)(1)(v) Inapplicable. (c)(1)(vi) Inapplicable. (c)(1)(vii) No single lessee generated lease revenue for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 which was 10% or more of the total revenue of the Registrant. (c)(1)(viii)Inapplicable. (c)(1)(ix) Inapplicable. (c)(1)(x) There are approximately 80 container leasing companies of which the top ten control approximately 91% of the total equipment held by all container leasing companies. The top two container leasing companies combined control approximately 36% of the total equipment held by all container leasing companies. Textainer Equipment Management Limited, an Associate General Partner of the Registrant and the manager of its marine container equipment, is the third largest container leasing company and manages approximately 13% of the equipment held by all container leasing companies. The customers for leased containers are primarily international shipping lines. The Registrant alone is not a material participant in the worldwide container leasing market. The principal methods of competition are price, availability and the provision of worldwide service to the international shipping community. Competition in the container leasing market has increased over the past few years. Since 1996, shipping alliances and other operational consolidations among shipping lines have allowed shipping lines to begin operating with fewer containers, thereby decreasing the demand for leased containers. Furthermore, primarily as a result of lower new container prices and low interest rates, shipping lines now own, rather than lease, a higher percentage of containers. The decrease in demand from shipping lines, along with the entry of new leasing company competitors offering low container rental rates, has increased competition among container lessors such as the Registrant. (c)(1)(xi) Inapplicable. (c)(1)(xii) Inapplicable. (c)(1)(xiii)The Registrant has no employees. Textainer Financial Services Corporation (TFS), the Managing General Partner of the Registrant, is responsible for the overall management of the business of the Registrant and at December 31, 1999 had 4 employees. Textainer Equipment Management Limited (TEM), an Associate General Partner, is responsible for the management of the leasing operations of the Registrant and at December 31, 1999 had a total of 164 employees. (d) Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales. The Registrant is involved in leasing containers to international shipping companies for use in world trade. Approximately 14%, 19% and 14%, of the Registrant's rental revenue during the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively, was derived from operations sourced or terminated domestically. These percentages do not reflect the proportion of the Partnership's income from operations generated domestically or in domestic waterways. Substantially all of the Partnership's income from operations is derived from assets employed in foreign operations. See "Business of the Partnership", and for a discussion of the risks of leasing containers for use in world trade, "Risk Factors" in the Registrant's Prospectus, as supplemented. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES As of December 31, 1999, the Registrant owned the following types and quantities of equipment: 20-foot standard dry freight containers 5,150 20-foot refrigerated containers 71 40-foot standard dry freight containers 5,176 40-foot high cube dry freight containers 3,872 ------ 14,269 ====== During December 1999, approximately 79% of these containers were on lease to international shipping companies, and the balance were being stored at container manufacturers' locations and at a large number of storage depots located worldwide. At December 31, 1999, approximately 2% of the Partnership's equipment had been identified as being for sale. For information about the Registrant's property, see "Business of the Partnership" in the Registrant's Prospectus, as supplemented. See also Item 7, "Results of Operations" regarding current, and possible future, write-downs of some of the Registrant's property. ITEM 3.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Amounts in thousands except for unit and per unit amounts) The Financial Statements contain information, which will assist in evaluating the financial condition of the Partnership for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. Please refer to the Financial Statements and Notes thereto in connection with the following discussion. Liquidity and Capital Resources From November 8, 1989 until January 15, 1991, the Partnership offered limited partnership interests to the public. The Partnership received its minimum subscription amount of $1,000 on December 19, 1989, and on January 15, 1991, the Partnership had received its maximum subscription amount of $75,000. From time to time, the Partnership redeems units from limited partners for a specified redemption value, which is set by formula. Up to 2% of the Partnership's outstanding units may be redeemed each year, although the 2% limit may be exceeded at the Managing General Partner's discretion. All redemptions are subject to the Managing General Partner's good faith determination that payment for the redeemed units will not (i) cause the Partnership to be taxed as a corporation, (ii) impair the capital or operations of the Partnership, or (iii) impair the ability of the Partnership to pay distributions in accordance with its distribution policy. During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Partnership redeemed 2,200 units for a total dollar amount of $18. The Partnership used cash flow from operations to pay for the redeemed units. The Partnership invests working capital, cash flow from operations prior to its distribution to the partners and sales proceeds from container sales that have not been used to purchase containers in short-term, liquid investments. The Partnership's cash is affected by cash provided by or used in operating, investing and financing activities. These activities are discussed in detail below. Limited partners are currently receiving monthly distributions in an annualized amount equal to 8% of their original investment. During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Partnership declared cash distributions to limited partners pertaining to the period from December 1998 through November 1999 in the amount of $5,940. On a GAAP basis, $5,046 of these distributions was a return of capital and the balance was from net income. On a cash basis, $4,866 of these distributions were from current year operating activities and the remainder was from cash provided by previous years' operations that had not been distributed or used to purchase containers or redeem units. Distributions in future years may continue to be greater than cash provided by operations and, in this event, would be made from the remaining undistributed cash from previous years' operations and then from proceeds from container sales. The portion of future distributions made from proceeds from container sales would be a return of capital. Making distributions from proceeds from container sales in future years was based on the Partnership's age and existing market conditions. At December 31, 1999, the Partnership had no commitments to purchase containers. Net cash provided by operating activities for years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, was $4,884 and $6,674, respectively. The decrease of $1,790, or 27%, was primarily attributed to the decrease in net earnings, adjusted for non-cash transactions and fluctuations in accounts receivable net of write-offs, offset by fluctuations in due from affiliates, net. Net earnings, adjusted for non-cash transactions decreased primarily due to the decline in rental income, which is discussed more fully in "Results of Operations". The decrease in accounts receivable of $70 for the year ended December 31, 1999 was primarily due to the decrease in rental income, offset by an increase in the average collection period of accounts receivable. The decrease in accounts receivable, net of write-offs, of $866 for the comparable period in 1998 was primarily due to the decrease in rental income, the resolution of payment issues with one lessee, and a decrease in the average collection period of accounts receivable. The increases in due from affiliates, net, resulted from timing differences in the payment of expenses and fees and the remittance of net rental revenues. For the year ended December 31, 1999, net cash provided by investing activities (the purchase and sale of containers) was $1,402 compared to $245 for the comparable period in 1998. The increase of $1,157 was due to the Partnership having purchased more containers during 1998 than in 1999, partially offset by a decrease in sales proceeds. The Partnership purchased fewer containers in 1999 than in 1998 due to the decline in sales proceeds and the decline in cash available from operations for container purchases as a result of current market conditions and the decision to maintain distributions at existing levels, as discussed above. Although the Partnership sold more containers during the year ended December 31, 1999 than in 1998, average sales prices received on the container sales decreased, resulting in the decline in proceeds from container sales. The sales prices received on these container sales decreased as a result of current market conditions, which have adversely affected the value of used containers. The increase in container sales during 1999 was primarily due to the Partnership continuing to sell containers located in low demand locations as discussed below in "Result of Operations". Until conditions improve in these low demand locations, the Partnership plans to continue to sell some of its containers there. The Partnership sells containers when (i) a container reaches the end of its useful life or (ii) an analysis indicates that the sale is warranted based on existing market conditions and the container's age, location and condition. Proceeds from container sales will fluctuate based on the number of containers sold and the actual price received on the sale. The Partnership intends to continue to reinvest a portion of cash from container sales proceeds in additional containers. The number of additional containers purchased is not likely to equal the number of containers sold for several reasons. First, new container prices are likely to be greater than the average sales price of containers sold. Additionally, cash available for reinvestment is likely to be lower than previously anticipated as a portion of future container sale proceeds is likely to be used to pay distributions. Furthermore, in the near term, the Partnership does not anticipate having excess cash from operations, after paying distributions and redeeming units, to reinvest in new containers, resulting in a slower than anticipated rate of reinvestment. The amount of distributions and redemptions is determined by the General Partners in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. Finally, market conditions have had an adverse effect on the average sales price recently realized from container sales. Market conditions are discussed more fully below under "Results of Operations". A slower rate of reinvestment will, over time, affect the size of the Partnership's container fleet. Results of Operations The Partnership's income from operations, which consists primarily of rental income, container depreciation, direct container expenses, management fees, and reimbursement of administrative expenses was directly related to the size of the container fleet during the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, as well as certain other factors as discussed below. The following is a summary of the container fleet (in units) available for lease during those periods: 1999 1998 1997 ---- ---- ---- Beginning container fleet............... 16,281 17,697 18,016 Ending container fleet.................. 14,269 16,281 17,697 Average container fleet................. 15,275 16,989 17,857 The decline in the average container fleet of 10% from the year ended December 31, 1998 to the year ended December 31, 1999 was due to the Partnership having sold more containers than it purchased since December 31, 1998. Although some of the sales proceeds were used to purchase additional containers, fewer containers were bought than sold, resulting in the net decrease in the size of the container fleet. As noted above, when containers are sold, sales proceeds are not likely to be sufficient to replace all of the containers sold and all sales proceeds may not be used for new container purchases. This trend, which is expected to continue, has contributed to a slower rate of reinvestment than had been expected by the General Partners. Other factors related to this trend are discussed above under "Liquidity and Capital Resources". Rental income and direct container expenses are also affected by the average utilization of the container fleet, which was 73%, 78% and 78% during the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. In addition, rental income is affected by daily rental rates. The following is a comparative analysis of the results of operations for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. The Partnership's income from operations for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 was $1,144 and $2,690, respectively, on rental income of $8,133 and $10,031, respectively. The decrease in rental income of $1,898, or 19%, from the year ended December 31, 1998 to the year ended December 31, 1999 was attributable to decreases in income from container rentals and other rental income, which is discussed below. Income from container rentals, the major component of total revenue, decreased $1,551, or 18%, primarily due to decreases in the average container fleet of 10%, average utilization of 6% and average rental rates of 5%. The Partnership's income from operations for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 was $2,690 and $2,471, respectively, on rental income of $10,031 and $10,433, respectively. The decrease in rental income of $402, or 4%, from the year ended December 31, 1997 to the year ended December 31, 1998 was attributable to a decrease in income from container rentals, partially offset by an increase in other rental income. Income from container rentals decreased $636, or 7% primarily due to the decrease in the average container fleet of 5% and the decrease in average rental rates of 2%. Since 1996, the container leasing industry has been adversely affected by lower demand for leased containers, increased competition and a trade imbalance, which have resulted in declining utilization and rental rates and increased costs. Demand for leased containers decreased due to changes in the business of shipping line customers as a result of (i) over-capacity resulting from the additions of new, larger ships to the existing container ship fleet at a rate in excess of the growth rate in containerized cargo trade; (ii) shipping line alliances and other operational consolidations that have allowed shipping lines to operate with fewer containers; and (iii) shipping lines purchasing containers to take advantage of low prices and favorable interest rates. The entry of new leasing company competitors offering low container rental rates to shipping lines resulted in downward pressure on rental rates, and caused leasing companies to offer higher leasing incentives and other discounts to shipping lines. The decline in the purchase price of new containers during this period and excess industry capacity have also caused additional downward pressure on rental rates. The weakening of many Asian currencies in 1998 resulted in a significant increase in exports from Asia to North America and Europe and a corresponding decrease in imports into Asia from North America and Europe. This trade imbalance created a weak demand for containers in North America and Europe and a strong demand for containers in Asia, which resulted in a decline in leasing incentives in Asia, but contributed to a further decline in average utilization and rental rates for the fleet managed by TEM. This imbalance has also resulted in an unusually high build-up of containers in lower demand locations. To alleviate the container build-up, the Partnership has repositioned newer containers to higher demand locations. However, as a result of this effort, the Partnership has incurred increased direct container expenses during 1998 and 1999. In addition to repositioning containers, the Partnership has sold certain containers located in lower demand locations. The decision to sell these containers was based on the current expectation that the economic benefit of selling these containers is greater than the estimated economic benefit of continuing to own these containers. The majority of the containers sold during 1998 and 1999 were older containers as the expected economic benefit of continuing to own these containers was significantly less than that of newer containers, primarily due to their shorter remaining marine life, the cost to reposition containers and shipping lines' preference for leasing newer containers. Once the decision had been made to sell certain containers during 1998 and 1999, the Partnership wrote down the value of these specifically identified containers to their estimated fair value, which was based on recent sales prices. Due to unanticipated declines in container sales prices, the actual sales prices received on some containers during 1999 were lower than the estimates used for the write-down, resulting in the Partnership incurring losses upon the sale of some of these containers. The Partnership recorded additional write-downs during 1999 on previously written down containers and on containers subsequently identified for sale. Until market conditions improve, the Partnership may incur further write-downs and/or losses on the sale of such containers. Should the decline in economic value of continuing to own such containers turn out to be permanent, the Partnership may be required to increase its depreciation rate or write-down the value for some or all of its container rental equipment. Although average utilization during the year ended December 31, 1999 was lower than the comparable period in 1998 for the reasons discussed above, utilization has been steadily improving during the second half of 1999 and has remained stable into the beginning of 2000. This improvement in utilization was due to slight improvements in demand for leased containers and the trade imbalance primarily as a result of the improvement in certain Asian economies and a related increase in exports out of Europe. Although the General Partners do not foresee material changes in existing market conditions for the near term, they are cautiously optimistic that the current level of utilization might be maintained during 2000. However, the General Partners caution that utilization, lease rates and container sale prices could also decline, adversely affecting the Partnership's operating results. Substantially all of the Partnership's rental income was generated from the leasing of the Partnership's containers under short-term operating leases. At December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, there were 246, 229 and 98 containers under direct finance leases, respectively. The balance of other rental income consists of other lease-related items, primarily income from charges to lessees for dropping off containers in surplus locations less credits granted to lessees for leasing containers from surplus locations (location income), income from charges to lessees for handling related to leasing and returning containers (handling income) and income from charges to lessees for a Damage Protection Plan (DPP). For the year ended December 31, 1999, the total of these other rental income items was $1,074, a decrease of $347 from the equivalent period in 1998. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in location and handling income of $216 and $86, respectively. Location income decreased primarily due to a decrease in charges to lessees for dropping off containers in certain locations. This decrease was in the lessees' favor and was driven by the market conditions discussed above. Handling income decreased due to a decrease in the average handling price charged per container and a decrease in container movement during the year ended December 31, 1999 compared to the equivalent period in 1998. The decline in the average container fleet also contributed to these declines. For the year ended December 31, 1998, the total of these other rental income items was $1,421, an increase of $234 from the year ended December 31, 1997. The increase was primarily due to an increase in location income of $294, offset by a decrease in handling income of $78. Location income increased primarily due to a decrease in credits given to lessees for picking up containers from certain locations. Handling income decreased primarily due to a decrease in container movement. Direct container expenses decreased $190, or 9%, from the year ended December 31, 1998 to the same period in 1999. The decrease was primarily due to the decline in the average container fleet which contributed to the decreases in repositioning and maintenance expense of $249 and $64, respectively, offset by an increase in storage expense of $131. Repositioning expense decreased due to a lower average repositioning cost per container and a decrease in the number of containers repositioned. Maintenance expense decreased due to a decrease in the number of units requiring repair and due to a decrease in the average repair cost per container. Storage expense increased due to the decrease in average utilization noted above and due to an increase in the average storage cost per container. Direct container expenses increased $212, or 11%, from the year ended December 31, 1997 to the year ended December 31, 1998. The increase was primarily due to an increase in repositioning expense of $300, offset by a decrease in storage expense of $60. Repositioning expense increased due to an increase in the number of containers repositioned and a higher average repositioning cost per container. Storage expense decreased due to a decrease in the average cost of storing the containers. Bad debt expense (benefit) was $124, ($111), and $92 for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The effect of insurance proceeds received during 1998 relating to certain receivables against which reserves had been recorded in 1994 and 1995, as well as the resolution of payment issues with one lessee during 1998, were primarily responsible for the benefit recorded in 1998 and, therefore, the fluctuation in bad debt expense (benefit) between the periods. Depreciation expense decreased $353, or 10%, and $320, or 9%, from the years ended December 31, 1998 to 1999 and December 31, 1997 to 1998, respectively. These decreases were primarily due to the smaller average fleet size and certain containers, acquired used, which have been fully depreciated. New container prices have been declining since 1995, and the cost of new containers at year-end 1998 and during 1999, was significantly less than the cost of containers purchased in prior years. The Partnership evaluated the recoverability of the recorded amount of container rental equipment at December 31, 1998 and 1999, and determined that a reduction to the carrying value of the containers held for continued use was not required, but that a write-down in value of certain containers identified for sale was required. The Partnership wrote down the value of these containers to their estimated fair value, which was based on recent sales prices less cost to sell. During the fourth quarter of 1998, the Partnership recorded a write-down of $232 on 954 containers identified for sale. During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Partnership recorded additional write-downs of $376 on previously written down containers and on 1,040 containers subsequently identified for sale. The Partnership sold 1,790 previously written down containers for a loss of $98. The Partnership incurred losses on the sale of some containers previously written down as the actual sales prices received on these containers were lower than the estimates used for the write-downs, primarily due to unexpected declines in container sale prices. Additionally, the Partnership incurred losses of $189 on the sale of containers that had not been written-down. If more containers aresubsequently identified as for sale or if container sales prices continue to decline, the Partnership may incur additional write-downs on containers and/or may incur losses on the sale of containers. During the year ended December 31, 1997, the Partnership recorded a write-down of $343 to further write down the value of refrigerated containers. During 1996, the carrying value of these containers was written down to an amount equal to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows from these containers as there had been no recent sales of this equipment type. The additional write-down recorded during 1997 was based on the sales proceeds received on 1997 sales of these containers. Management fees to affiliates decreased $94, or 10%, and $60, or 6%, from the years ended December 31, 1998 to 1999 and December 31, 1997 to 1998, respectively, primarily due to decreases in equipment management fees. Equipment management fees, which are based primarily on gross revenue, decreased as a result of the decrease in rental income and were approximately 7% of rental income for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. Incentive management fees, which are based on the Partnership's limited and general partner distribution percentage and partners' capital, remained comparable at $250, $251 and $251 for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. General and administrative costs to affiliates decreased $129, or 24%, and $110, or 17%, from the years ended December 31, 1998 to 1999 and December 31, 1997 to 1998, respectively. These decreases were primarily due to the decrease in overhead costs allocated by TEM, as the Partnership represented a smaller portion of the total fleet managed by TEM. Other expense decreased $11 from the year ended December 31, 1998 to the year ended December 31, 1999. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease of $10 in loss on sale of containers. The loss on sale of containers was primarily due to the Partnership selling 1,051 containers primarily in low demand locations at lower average sale proceeds and due to the loss recorded in 1999 on the sale of 1,790 containers previously written down as discussed above. Other income decreased $442 from income of $244 for the year ended December 31, 1997 to an expense of $198 for the comparable period in 1998. The decrease was primarily due to the fluctuation of gain/loss on sale of containers from a gain of $169 for the year ended December 31, 1997 to a loss of $297 for the year ended December 31, 1998. The loss on sale of containers was primarily due to the Partnership selling containers in low demand locations at a younger age than they would have been sold during previous years, as a result of market conditions. Net earnings per limited partnership unit decreased from $0.63 to $0.24, and from $0.71 to $0.63 from the years ended December 31, 1998 to 1999 and from December 31, 1997 to 1998, respectively. These decreases reflect the decreases in net earnings allocated to limited partners from $2,339 to $894 from the year ended December 31, 1998 to 1999 and from $2,652 to $2,339 from December 31, 1997 to 1998. The allocation of net earnings for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 included a special allocation of gross income of $53, $128 and $36, respectively, to the General Partners in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. Although substantially all of the Partnership's income from operations is derived from assets employed in foreign operations, virtually all of this income is denominated in United States dollars. The Partnership's customers are international shipping lines, which transport goods on international trade routes. The domicile of the lessee is not indicative of where the lessee is transporting the containers. The Partnership's business risk in its foreign operations lies with the creditworthiness of the lessees, and the Partnership's ability to keep its containers under lease, rather than the geographic location of the containers or the domicile of the lessees. The containers are generally operated on the international high seas rather than on domestic waterways. The containers are subject to the risk of war or other political, economic or social occurrence where the containers are used, which may result in the loss of containers, which, in turn, may have a material impact on the Partnership's results of operations and financial condition. The General Partners are not aware of any conditions as of December 31, 1999, which would result in such a risk materializing. Other risks of the Partnership's leasing operations include competition, the cost of repositioning containers after they come off-lease, the risk of an uninsured loss, increases in maintenance expenses or other costs of operating the containers, and the effect of world trade, industry trends and/or general business and economic cycles on the Partnership's operations. See "Risk Factors" in the Partnership's Prospectus, as supplemented, for additional information on risks of the Partnership's business. Effect of Date Crossing to Year 2000 There has been no material effect on the Partnership's financial condition and results of operations as a result of problems arising from computer systems' abilities to process dates beyond January 1, 2000. The General Partners do not currently expect any such problems to arise within their own computer systems. The likelihood that a failure in a third party's system would occur and have a significant adverse effect on the Partnership's operations seems increasingly remote, but no assurance can be given that, due to unforeseen circumstances, such an event could not occur. Therefore, the Partnership's contingency plan remains in place; that is, the General Partners continue to remain capable of switching temporarily to manual operations in the event of a computer system's failure. There can be no assurance, however, that switching to manual operations would prevent all adverse effects of any future year 2000 problem. Forward Looking Statements The foregoing includes forward-looking statements and predictions about possible or future events, results of operations and financial condition. These statements and predictions may prove to be inaccurate, because of the assumptions made by the Partnership or the General Partners or the actual development of future events. No assurance can be given that any of these forward-looking statements or predictions will ultimately prove to be correct or even substantially correct. The risks and uncertainties in these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, changes in demand for leased containers, changes in global business conditions and their effect on world trade, future modifications in the way in which the Partnership's lessees conduct their business or of the profitability of their business, increases or decreases in new container prices or the availability of financing therefor, alterations in the costs of maintaining and repairing used containers, increases in competition, changes in the Partnership's ability to maintain insurance for its containers and its operations, the effects of political conditions on worldwide shipping and demand for global trade or of other general business and economic cycles on the Partnership, as well as other risks detailed herein and from time to time in the Partnership's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Partnership does not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Inapplicable. ITEM 8.

TEXTAINER EQUIPMENT INCOME FUND II, L.P. (a California Limited Partnership) Notes to Financial Statements Years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 (Amounts in thousands except for unit and per unit amounts) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Nature of Operations Textainer Equipment Income Fund II, L.P. (TEIF II or the Partnership), a California limited partnership with a maximum life of 20 years, was formed on July 11, 1989. The Partnership was formed to engage in the business of owning, leasing and selling both new and used containers related to the international containerized cargo shipping industry, including, but not limited to, containers, trailers, and other container-related equipment. TEIF II offered units representing limited partnership interests (Units) to the public until January 15, 1991, the close of the offering period, when a total of 3,750,000 Units had been purchased for a total of $75,000. Textainer Financial Services Corporation (TFS) is the managing general partner of the Partnership and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Textainer Capital Corporation (TCC). Textainer Equipment Management Limited (TEM) and Textainer Limited (TL) are associate general partners of the Partnership. The managing general partner and the associate general partners are collectively referred to as the General Partners and are commonly owned by Textainer Group Holdings Limited (TGH). The General Partners also act in this capacity for other limited partnerships. Prior to its liquidation in October 1998, Textainer Acquisition Services Limited (TAS), a former affiliate of the General Partners, performed services related to the acquisition of containers outside the United States on behalf of the Partnership. Effective November 1998, these services are being performed by TEM. The General Partners manage and control the affairs of the Partnership. (b) Basis of Accounting The Partnership utilizes the accrual method of accounting. Revenue is recorded when earned according to the terms of the equipment rental contracts. These contracts are classified as operating leases or direct finance leases if they so qualify under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13: "Accounting for Leases". Substantially all of the Partnership's rental income was generated from the leasing of the Partnership's containers under short-term operating leases. (c) Use of Estimates Certain estimates and assumptions were made by the Partnership's management that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (d) Fair Value of Financial Instruments In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," the Partnership calculates the fair value of financial instruments and includes this additional information in the notes to the financial statements when the fair value is different than the book value of those financial instruments. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the fair value of the Partnership's financial instruments approximates the related book value of such instruments. (e) Container Rental Equipment Container rental equipment is recorded at the cost of the assets purchased, which includes acquisition fees, less depreciation charged. Depreciation of new containers is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 12 years to a 28% salvage value. Used containers are depreciated based upon their estimated remaining useful life at the date of acquisition (from 2 to 11 years). When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the equipment accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in income for the period. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" (SFAS 121), the Partnership periodically compares the carrying value of the containers to expected future cash flows for the purpose of assessing the recoverability of the recorded amounts. If the carrying value exceeds expected future cash flows, the assets are written down to estimated fair value. In addition, containers identified for disposal are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. New container prices have been declining since 1995, and the cost of new containers at year-end 1998 and during 1999, was significantly less than the cost of containers purchased in prior years. The Partnership evaluated the recoverability of the recorded amount of container rental equipment at December 31, 1997, and determined that a reduction to the carrying value of all but refrigerated containers was not required. During the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999, the Partnership determined that a reduction to the carrying value of the containers held for continued use was not required, but that a write-down in value of certain containers identified for sale was required. The Partnership wrote down the value of these containers to their estimated fair value, which was based on recent sales prices less cost to sell. During the year ended December 31, 1997, the Partnership recorded a write down of $343 to further write down the value of refrigerated containers. During 1996, the carrying value of these containers was written down to an amount equal to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows from these containers as there had been no recent sales of this equipment type. The additional write down recorded during 1997 was based on the sales proceeds received on 1997 sales of these containers. During the fourth quarter of 1998, the Partnership recorded a write-down of $232 on 954 containers identified for sale. During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Partnership recorded additional write-downs of $376 on previously written down containers and on 1,040 containers subsequently identified for sale. The Partnership sold 1,790 previously written down containers for a loss of $98. The Partnership incurred losses on the sale of some containers previously written down as the actual sales prices received on these containers were lower than the estimates used for the write-downs, primarily due to unexpected declines in container sales prices. Additionally, the Partnership incurred losses of $189 on the sale of containers that had not been written-down. If more containers are subsequently identified as for sale or if container sales prices continue to decline, the Partnership may incur additional write-downs on containers and/or may incur losses on the sale of containers. The Partnership will continue to evaluate the recoverability of the recorded amounts of container rental equipment and cautions that a write-down of container rental equipment and/or an increase in its depreciation rate may be required in future periods for some or all of its container rental equipment. (f) Nature of Income from Operations Although substantially all of the Partnership's income from operations is derived from assets employed in foreign operations, virtually all of this income is denominated in United States dollars. The Partnership's customers are international shipping lines that transport goods on international trade routes. The domicile of the lessee is not indicative of where the lessee is transporting the containers. The Partnership's business risk in its foreign operations lies with the creditworthiness of the lessees rather than the geographic location of the containers or the domicile of the lessees. For the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, no single lessee accounted for more than 10% of the Partnership's revenues. (g) Allocation of Net Earnings and Partnership Distributions In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, sections 3.08 through 3.12, net earnings or losses and distributions are generally allocated 1% to the General Partners and 99% to the Limited Partners. If the allocation of distributions exceeds the allocation of net earnings and creates a deficit in the General Partners' aggregate capital account, the Partnership Agreement provides for a special allocation of gross income equal to the amount of the deficit. Actual cash distributions to the Limited Partners differ from the allocated net earnings as presented in these financial statements because cash distributions are based on cash available for distribution. Cash distributions are paid to the general and limited partners on a monthly basis in accordance with the provisions of the Partnership Agreement. Some limited partners have elected to have their distributions paid quarterly. The Partnership has recorded deferred distributions of $69 and $68 at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. (h) Income Taxes The Partnership is not subject to income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made. The Partnership files federal and state information returns only. Taxable income or loss is reportable by the individual partners. (i) Acquisition Fees In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, acquisition fees equal to 5% of the container purchase price were paid to TEM beginning in November 1998 and TAS through October 1998. These fees were capitalized as part of the cost of the containers. (j) Damage Protection Plan The Partnership offers a Damage Protection Plan (DPP) to lessees of its containers. Under the terms of DPP, the Partnership earns additional revenues on a daily basis and, in return, has agreed to bear certain repair costs. It is the Partnership's policy to recognize revenue when earned and to provide a reserve sufficient to cover the Partnership's obligation for estimated future repair costs. DPP expenses are included in direct container expenses in the Statements of Earnings and the related reserve at December 31, 1999 and 1998, was $272 and $222, respectively. (k) Warranty Claims During 1992, 1993 and 1995, the Partnership settled warranty claims against a container manufacturer. The Partnership is amortizing the settlement amounts over the remaining estimated useful life of the applicable containers (between six and seven years), reducing maintenance and repair costs over that time. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the unamortized portion of the settlement amounts was equal to $172 and $385, respectively. (l) Recovery Costs The Partnership accrues an estimate for recovery costs as a result of defaults under its leases that it expects to incur, which are in excess of estimated insurance proceeds. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the amounts accrued were $74 and $48, respectively.

For the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, equipment management fees totaled $571, $664, and $724, respectively. The Partnership's containers are leased by TEM to third party lessees on operating master leases, spot leases, term leases and full payout net leases. The majority of the Partnership's leases are operating leases with limited terms and no purchase option. Certain indirect general and administrative costs such as salaries, employee benefits, taxes and insurance are incurred in performing administrative services necessary to the operation of the Partnership. These costs are incurred and paid by TEM and TFS.

PART III ITEM 10. DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT The Registrant has no officers or directors. As described in the Prospectus, the Registrant's three original general partners were TCC, TEM and Textainer Inc. (TI), which comprised the original Textainer Group. Effective October 1, 1993, the Textainer Group restructured its organization by forming a new holding company, Textainer Group Holdings Limited (TGH), and the shareholders of the underlying companies which include the General Partners accepted shares in TGH in exchange for their shares in the individual companies. Textainer Financial Services Corporation (TFS) is the Managing General Partner of the Partnership (prior to its name change on April 4, 1994, TFS was known as Textainer Capital Corporation). TFS is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Textainer Capital Corporation (TCC) (prior to its name change on April 4, 1994, TCC was known as Textainer (Delaware) Inc.). Textainer Equipment Management Limited (TEM) is an Associate General Partner of the Partnership. TI was an Associate General Partner of the Partnership through September 30, 1993 when it was replaced in that capacity by Textainer Limited (TL), pursuant to the corporate restructuring effective October 1, 1993, which caused TFS, TEM and TL to fall under the common ownership of TGH. Pursuant to this restructuring, TI transferred substantially all of its assets including all of its rights and duties as Associate General Partner to TL. This transfer was effective from October 1, 1993. The end result was that TFS now serves as Managing General Partner and TEM and TL now serve as Associate General Partners. The Managing General Partner and Associate General Partners are collectively referred to as the General Partners and are wholly-owned or substantially-owned subsidiaries of TGH. The General Partners also act in this capacity for other limited partnerships. Prior to its liquidation in October 1998, Textainer Acquisition Services Limited (TAS) was an affiliate of the General Partners and performed services related to the acquisition of equipment outside the United States on behalf of the Partnership. Effective November 1998, these services are performed by TEM. TFS, as the Managing General Partner, is responsible for managing the administration and operation of the Registrant, and for the formulation and administration of investment policies. TEM, an Associate General Partner, manages all aspects of the operation of the Registrant's equipment. TL, an Associate General Partner, owns a fleet of container rental equipment which is managed by TEM. TL provides advice to the Partnership regarding negotiations with financial institutions, manufacturers and equipment owners, and regarding the terms upon which particular items of equipment are acquired. Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance. Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Partnership's General Partners, policy-making officials and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of the Units to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Copies of these reports must also be furnished to the Partnership. Based solely on a review of the copies of such forms furnished to the Partnership or on written representations that no forms were required to be filed, the Partnership believes that with respect to its most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, all Section 16(a) filing requirements were complied with. No member of management, or beneficial owner owned more than 10 percent of any interest in the Partnership. None of the individuals subject to section 16(a) failed to file or filed late any reports of transactions in the Units. The directors and executive officers of the General Partners are as follows:
