Notes To Financial Statements

For the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001
(Amounts in thousands except for unit and per unit amounts)
(unaudited)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note 1.   General

     TCC  Equipment  Income  Fund  (the   Partnership),   a  California  limited
     partnership  with a maximum  life of 20  years,  was  formed  in 1987.  The
     Partnership owns a fleet of intermodal marine cargo  containers,  which are
     leased to international shipping lines.

     In January  1998,  the  Partnership  ceased  purchasing  containers  and in
     October 1998, the Partnership  began its liquidation  phase. This phase may
     last up to six or more years  depending on whether the  containers are sold
     (i) in one or more large  transactions  or (ii)  gradually,  either as they
     reach the end of their marine  useful  lives or when an analysis  indicates
     that their sale is warranted  based on existing  market  conditions and the
     container's age, location and condition.  The Partnership  anticipates that
     all excess cash, after  redemptions and working capital  reserves,  will be
     distributed to the limited and general partners on a quarterly basis.

     The final termination and winding up of the Partnership, as well as payment
     of  liquidating  and/or final  distributions,  will occur at the end of the
     liquidation  phase  when  all or  substantially  all  of the  Partnership's
     containers have been sold and the Partnership begins its dissolution.

     The accompanying  interim  comparative  financial  statements have not been
     audited by an  independent  public  accountant.  However,  all  adjustments
     (which  were only  normal and  recurring  adjustments)  which  are,  in the
     opinion of management,  necessary to fairly present the financial  position
     of the  Partnership  as of March 31,  2002 and  December  31,  2001 and the
     results of its operations,  changes in partners' capital and cash flows for
     the three-month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, have been made.

     The financial  information  presented  herein should be read in conjunction
     with the audited financial statements and other accompanying notes included
     in the Partnership's  annual audited financial statements as of and for the
     year ended December 31, 2001, in the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K.

     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. The Partnership's  management  evaluates its estimates on
     an  on-going  basis,  including  those  related  to  the  container  rental
     equipment, accounts receivable and accruals.

     These  estimates  are based on historical  experience  and on various other
     assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
     results of which form the basis for making judgments regarding the carrying
     values of assets and  liabilities.  Actual  results could differ from those
     estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

     The Partnership's  management  believes the following  critical  accounting
     policies  affect its more  significant  judgments and estimates used in the
     preparation of its financial statements.

     The Partnership  maintains  allowances for doubtful  accounts for estimated
     losses  resulting  from  the  inability  of its  lessees  to make  required
     payments.  These allowances are based on management's current assessment of
     the financial  condition of the Partnership's  lessees and their ability to
     make  their  required   payments.   If  the  financial   condition  of  the
     Partnership's  lessees were to  deteriorate,  resulting in an impairment of
     their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

     The Partnership depreciates its container rental equipment based on certain
     estimates related to the container's  useful life and salvage value.  These
     estimates  are based  upon  assumptions  about  future  demand  for  leased
     containers  and the  estimated  sales  price at the end of the  container's
     useful  life.  If  these  estimates  were  subsequently  revised  based  on
     permanent  changes in the container  leasing market,  the Partnership would
     revise its depreciation policy.

     Additionally,  the  recoverability of the recorded amounts of containers is
     evaluated to ensure that the recorded  amount does not exceed the estimated
     fair value of the containers.  If it is determined that the recorded amount
     exceeds the estimated fair value, the Partnership  writes down the value of
     those containers.  In determining the estimated fair value, assumptions are
     made regarding future demand and market conditions for leased containers as
     well as for used  containers and the sales prices for used  containers.  If
     actual market  conditions  are less  favorable  than those  projected or if
     actual  sales  prices are lower than those  estimated  by the  Partnership,
     additional write-downs may be required.

     In August 2001, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board issued Statement
     of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS")  No.  144,  "Accounting  for
     Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived  Assets." SFAS No. 144 supercedes SFAS
     No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
     of," and elements of Accounting Principles Board Opinion 30, "Reporting the
     Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects on Disposal of a Segment of a
     Business and  Extraordinary,  Unusual or Infrequently  Occurring Events and
     Transactions."

     SFAS No. 144 establishes a single-accounting model for long-lived assets to
     be  disposed  of  while  maintaining  many of the  provisions  relating  to
     impairment testing and valuation. The Partnership adopted this Statement on
     January  1,  2002 and  there was no  material  impact on the  Partnership's
     financial condition, operating results or cash flow.

     Certain  reclassifications,  not affecting net earnings,  have been made to
     prior year  amounts in order to  conform  to the 2002  financial  statement
     presentation.

Note 2.   Transactions with Affiliates

     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.  The General Partners manage
     and control the affairs of the Partnership.

     In accordance with the Partnership  Agreement,  sections 3.08 through 3.11,
     net earnings or losses and distributions are generally  allocated 1% to the
     General Partners and 99% to the Limited  Partners.  Effective October 1998,
     the allocation of  distributions  to the General  Partners was increased to
     1.3% in  accordance  with section  2.05 of the  Partnership  Agreement.  In
     addition,  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 to be made to the General
     Partners.

     As part of the operation of the  Partnership,  the Partnership is to pay to
     the General Partners an equipment  management fee, an incentive  management
     fee and an equipment  liquidation  fee. These fees are for various services
     provided  in  connection  with the  administration  and  management  of the
     Partnership.  The Partnership  incurred $11 and $16 of incentive management
     fees  during  the  three  month  periods  ended  March  31,  2002 and 2001,
     respectively.  Additionally,  during the three-month period ended March 31,
     2001, the  Partnership  recorded an adjustment of $121 to reduce  incentive
     management fees for  overpayments  made during 1999 and 2000. There were no
     equipment  liquidation  fees incurred during the three-month  periods ended
     March 31, 2002 and 2001.

     The  Partnership's  containers  are managed by TEM. In its role as manager,
     TEM has authority to acquire,  hold, manage, lease, sell and dispose of the
     Partnership's  containers.  TEM holds,  for the payment of direct operating
     expenses,   a  reserve  of  cash  that  has  been  collected  from  leasing
     operations;  such cash is included in due from affiliates, net at March 31,
     2002 and December 31, 2001.

     Subject to certain reductions,  TEM receives a monthly equipment management
     fee equal to 7% of gross revenues  attributable to operating  leases and 2%
     of gross  revenues  attributable  to full  payout  net  leases.  These fees
     totaled $28 and $40 for the  three-month  periods  ended March 31, 2002 and
     2001, respectively.

     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.  Total  general  and
     administrative  costs allocated to the  Partnership  during the three-month
     periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 were as follows:

                                               2002       2001

     TEM allocates these general and administrative  costs based on the ratio of
     the Partnership's interest in the managed containers to the total container
     fleet managed by TEM during the period.  TFS allocates these costs based on
     the ratio of the  Partnership's  containers to the total container fleet of
     all limited partnerships managed by TFS. The General Partners allocated the
     following general and  administrative  costs to the Partnership  during the
     three-month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001:

                                               2002      2001

     These amounts  receivable  from and payable to affiliates  were incurred in
     the ordinary course of business  between the Partnership and its affiliates
     and represent timing differences in the accrual and remittance of expenses,
     fees and distributions described above and in the accrual and remittance of
     net rental revenues and container sales proceeds from TEM.

Note 3.  Lease Rental Income

     Leasing income arises principally from the renting of containers to various
     international  shipping lines. Revenue is recorded when earned according to
     the terms of the container rental contracts.  These contracts are typically
     for  terms of five  years or less.  The  following  is the lease mix of the
     on-lease containers (in units) at March 31, 2002 and 2001:

                                                           2002             2001
                                                           ----             ----

              On-lease under master leases                1,896            2,612
              On-lease under long-term leases               761            1,039
                                                          -----            -----

                 Total on-lease containers                2,657            3,651
                                                          =====            =====

     Under  master  lease  agreements,  the lessee is not  committed  to lease a
     minimum number of containers from the Partnership during the lease term and
     may generally  return any portion or all the containers to the  Partnership
     at any time, subject to certain restrictions in the lease agreement.  Under
     long-term  lease  agreements,   containers  are  usually  leased  from  the
     Partnership  for periods of between  three to five  years.  Such leases are
     generally cancelable with a penalty at the end of each twelve-month period.
     Under direct  finance  leases,  the  containers are usually leased from the
     Partnership  for  the  remainder  of the  container's  useful  life  with a
     purchase option at the end of the lease term.

     The remaining  containers are off-lease and are being stored primarily at a
     large  number of  storage  depots.  At March 31,  2002,  the  Partnership's
     off-lease containers were located in the following locations:

              America                                 458
              Europe                                  303
              Asia                                    794
                                                    -----

                 Total off-lease containers         1,555
                                                    =====

     At  March  31,  2002  approximately  13%  of  the  Partnership's  off-lease
     containers had been specifically identified as for sale.

Note 4.   Direct Finance Leases

     The  Partnership  has leased  containers  under direct  finance leases with
     terms ranging from two to five years.  The components of the net investment
     in direct  finance  leases at March 31, 2002 and  December  31, 2001 are as
     follows:

     The  following is a schedule by year of minimum lease  payments  receivable
     under the direct finance leases at March 31, 2002:

     Rental  income for the  three-month  periods  ended March 31, 2002 and 2001
     includes $2 and $1 respectively, of income from direct finance leases.

Note 5. Container Rental Equipment Write-Down

     New container  prices  steadily  declined from 1995 through 1999.  Although
     container prices increased in 2000, these prices declined again in 2001 and
     have remained low during the first  quarter of 2002. As a result,  the cost
     of new containers  purchased in recent years is significantly less than the
     average  cost of  containers  purchased  in prior  years.  The  Partnership
     evaluated the  recoverability  of the recorded  amount of container  rental
     equipment  at  March  31,  2002  and  2001  for  containers  to be held for
     continued  use and  determined  that a reduction to the  carrying  value of
     these  containers  was not required.  The  Partnership  also  evaluated the
     recoverability of the recorded amount of containers  identified for sale in
     the  ordinary  course of business  and  determined  that a reduction to the
     carrying value of these containers 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  three-month
     periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, the Partnership  recorded additional
     depreciation expense of $54 and $10, respectively, on 107 and 32 containers
     identified as for sale and requiring a reserve. At March 31, 2002 and 2001,
     the net book value of the 203 and 112  containers  identified  for sale was
     $230 and $132, respectively.

     The Partnership sold 73 previously written down containers for a loss of $5
     during the  three-month  period ended March 31, 2002 and sold 21 previously
     written  down  containers  for a loss of $1 during the same period in 2001.
     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.

     The  Partnership  also sold  containers  that had not been written down and
     recorded  losses of $22 and $0 during the  three-month  periods ended March
     31, 2002, and 2001, respectively.

     As 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.

ITEM 2 - 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 three-month  periods ended March
31, 2002, and 2001.  Please refer to the Financial  Statements and Notes thereto
in connection with the following discussion.

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 General
Partners manage and control the affairs of the Partnership.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

From  October  1987  until  October  1989,  the   Partnership   offered  limited
partnership  interests  to the  public.  The  Partnership  received  its minimum
subscription  amount of $1,000 on April 8, 1988,  and on October 26,  1989,  the
Partnership's offering of limited partnership interests was closed at $29,491.

In October 1998, the Partnership  entered its liquidation  phase, which may last
up to six or more years  depending on whether the containers are sold (i) in one
or more large  transactions or (ii)  gradually,  either as they reach the end of
their  useful  marine  lives or when an  analysis  indicates  that their sale is
warranted based on existing market  conditions and the container's age, location
and  condition.   The  Partnership  anticipates  that  all  excess  cash,  after
redemptions and working capital reserves, will be distributed to the general and
limited partners on a quarterly basis. These  distributions will consist of cash
from operations and/or cash from sales proceeds. As the Partnership's  container
fleet decreases,  cash from operations is expected to decrease,  while cash from
sales proceeds is expected to fluctuate  based on the number of containers  sold
and the actual sales price per container received. Consequently, the Partnership
anticipates that a large portion of all future distributions will be a return of
capital.

To date, the Partnership  has sold  containers  only  gradually,  rather than in
large transactions.

The final  termination and winding up of the Partnership,  as well as payment of
liquidating and/or final distributions, will occur at the end of the liquidation
phase when all or substantially  all of the  Partnership's  containers have been
sold and the Partnership begins its dissolution.

The  Partnership  invests  working  capital  and cash flow from  operations  and
investing  activities  prior to its  distribution to the partners in short-term,
liquid  investments.  Rental  income is the  Partnership's  principal  source of
liquidity and provides a major source of funds for distributions.  Rental income
has been adversely  affected by current market conditions for leased containers,
and these  market  conditions  may  continue or worsen.  Market  conditions  are
discussed  more fully in  "Results of  Operations".  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.

During the  three-month  period ended March 31, 2002, the  Partnership  declared
cash distributions to limited partners  pertaining to the fourth quarter of 2001
in the amount of $430, which represented $0.30 per unit. On a cash basis,  after
paying  redemptions,  $219 of total  distributions  was from  operations and the
balance was a return of capital.  On a financial  statement  basis, all of these
distributions were a return of capital.

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  three-month  period ended March 31,
2002, the Partnership redeemed 4,625 units for a total dollar amount of $21. The
Partnership used cash flow from operations to pay for the redeemed units.

Net cash  provided by operating  activities  for the  three-month  periods ended
March 31, 2002 and 2001, was $246 and $378, respectively.  The decrease of $132,
or 35% was primarily attributable to the decrease in net earnings,  adjusted for
non-cash transactions,  offset by fluctuations in due from affiliates,  net. Net
earnings,  adjusted for non-cash  transactions,  decreased  primarily due to the
decrease in rental  income and the increase in  management  fees to  affiliates.
These  items are  discussed  more  fully  under  "Results  of  Operations".  The
fluctuations in due from affiliates, net resulted from timing differences in the
payment of expenses,  fees, and  distributions  and the remittance of net rental
revenues and  container  sales  proceeds,  as well as in  fluctuations  in these
amounts.

For the three-month  periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, net cash provided by
investing  activities (the sale of containers) was $166 and $138,  respectively.
The increase of $28 was primarily due to the Partnership selling more containers
during the three-month  period ended March 31, 2002,  compared to the equivalent
period in 2001. Although the Partnership sold more containers in the three-month
period  ended March 31,  2002,  the sales  price  received  on  container  sales
decreased. Some of the containers sold were located in low demand locations, and
these sales were driven not only by the liquidation  plans discussed  above, but
also by adverse market conditions in these locations.  The sale of containers in
these  locations,  the decline in the value of used  containers  and the related
market conditions are discussed more fully under "Results of Operations".

Due, in part,  to these  market  conditions  and their effect on demand for used
containers,  the Partnership has been primarily  selling  containers only if the
containers  are at the end of their useful lives or if they are located in these
low  demand  locations.  Therefore,  and as noted  above,  the  Partnership  has
implemented its liquidation phase to date by selling containers  gradually.  The
Partnership will continue to evaluate its options for selling  containers in the
context of both these market conditions and the Partnership's liquidation plans.
The number of containers  sold both in low demand  locations and  elsewhere,  as
well as the amount of sales proceeds,  will affect how much the Partnership will
pay in future distributions to Partners.

Results of Operations

The  Partnership's  income from operations,  which consists  primarily of rental
income  less  costs  and  expenses  (including  container  depreciation,  direct
container  expenses,   management  fees,  and  reimbursement  of  administrative
expenses)  was directly  related to the size of the  container  fleet during the
three-month  periods  ended  March 31, 2002 and 2001,  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:


                                                            2002            2001
                                                            ----            ----

               Beginning container fleet...............    4,416           5,119
               Ending container fleet..................    4,212           4,986
               Average container fleet.................    4,314           5,053

The average  container  fleet  decreased 15% from the  three-month  period ended
March 31, 2001 to the comparable period in 2002, primarily due to the continuing
sale of  containers  (i) that had reached the end of their  useful lives or (ii)
that an analysis had indicated that their sale was otherwise warranted. Included
in this  second  group were  containers  located in low  demand  locations.  The
Partnership expects that the size of its container fleet will further decline as
additional  containers  are  sold  for  these  reasons  and as  the  Partnership
continues  its  liquidation  plans.  The  decline  in the  container  fleet  has
contributed to an overall decline in rental income from the three-month  periods
ended March 31, 2001 to the equivalent  period in 2002. This decline is expected
to continue in future years,  as the size of the  Partnership's  container fleet
continues to decrease.

Rental  income and direct  container  expenses are also  affected by the average
utilization of the container fleet,  which was 60% and 74% on average during the
three-month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001,  respectively.  The remaining
container fleet is off-lease and is being stored  primarily at a large number of
storage depots.  At March 31, 2002, the Partnership's  off-lease  containers (in
units) were located in the following locations:

        America                                458
        Europe                                 303
        Asia                                   794
                                             -----
        Total off-lease containers           1,555
                                             =====

At March 31, 2002  approximately 13% of the Partnership's  off-lease  containers
had been specifically identified as for sale.

In addition to utilization, rental income is affected by daily rental rates. The
average daily rental rate decreased 7% between the periods.

The  following is a comparative  analysis of the results of  operations  for the
three-month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001.

The  Partnership's  (loss) income from  operations for the  three-month  periods
ending  March 31,  2002 and 2001 was ($58)  and  $212,  respectively,  on rental
income of $404 and $608, respectively. The decrease in rental income of $204, or
34%, from the three-month  period ended March 31, 2001 to the comparable  period
in 2002 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  $190,  or 36%,  primarily due to
decreases in the average on-hire utilization of 19%, the average container fleet
of 15%,  and  rental  rates of 7%  between  the  periods.  The  majority  of the
Partnership's  rental income was generated from the leasing of the Partnership's
containers under master operating leases.

In the fourth  quarter of 2000,  utilization  began to decline and  continued to
decline  during 2001 and the  beginning  of 2002.  This decline was due to lower
overall  demand by shipping  lines for leased  containers,  which is primarily a
result of the  worldwide  economic  slowdown.  Two other  factors are  currently
reducing  the demand for leased  containers.  Shipping  lines have added  larger
vessels to their fleets, which combined with lower cargo volume growth, has made
it easier for them to use otherwise  empty vessel space to reposition  their own
containers back to high demand locations.  Additionally,  in anticipation of the
delivery of these new, larger  vessels,  many shipping lines placed large orders
for new  containers in 2000 and 2001,  thus  temporarily  reducing their need to
lease containers.  These orders for additional  containers are part of a general
increase in vessel  capacity for the  shipping  lines.  This  increase in vessel
capacity  amounted to 12% in 2001. An additional  increase in vessel capacity of
approximately 12% is expected in 2002,  because the shipping lines placed orders
for  additional  ships before  recognizing  the slowdown in world trade.  To the
extent that this increased vessel capacity remains underutilized, shipping lines
may seek to cut costs in order to sustain  profits or reduce  losses,  which may
put further downward pressure on demand for containers.

As a result of the lower  demand,  the trade  imbalance  between  Asia and North
America and Asia and Europe has eased slightly.  Combined with the excess vessel
capacity,  these  factors  have made it easier,  although not  necessarily  less
expensive,  to reposition  containers.  During the year ended December 31, 2001,
the  Partnership  was  able to  reposition  newer  containers  from  low  demand
locations in North America and Europe to historically higher demand locations in
Asia. As a consequence,  the build-up of containers in North America and Europe,
which persisted over the past several years, has eased slightly.  For the number
of off-lease  containers  located in the lower  demand  locations of America and
Europe, see chart above.

Nevertheless,  the Partnership  continues to sell (rather than  reposition) some
containers  located in low demand locations.  The decision to sell containers is
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 are older containers,  as
the  expected  economic  benefit  of  continuing  to  own  these  containers  is
significantly  less than that of newer containers.  This is due to their shorter
remaining  marine life,  the cost to  reposition  them and the  shipping  lines'
preference for leasing newer containers when they have a choice.

Once the  decision  had been  made to sell  containers,  whether  in low  demand
locations  or  elsewhere,   the  Partnership  wrote  down  the  value  of  these
specifically  identified containers when the carrying value was greater than the
container's  estimated  fair value,  which was based on recent sales prices less
cost of sales.  Due to declines in  container  sales  prices,  the actual  sales
prices  received on some  containers  were lower than the estimates used for the
write-down,  resulting in the Partnership incurring losses upon the sale of some
of these containers.  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 of some or all of its container rental equipment.

Primarily as a result of the decline in demand for leased  containers  discussed
above and the  decline  in new  container  purchase  prices,  rental  rates have
declined during these periods.

Beginning  in March  2002,  there  was some  improvement  in  utilization.  This
improvement  was primarily  due to (i) improving  economies in the United States
and Europe and (ii) container  shortages in Asia among shipping lines.  However,
the General  Partners do not know how long this  improvement  will  continue and
caution  that demand for leased  containers  could  decline  again and result in
further  declines  in  utilization,  lease  rates  and  container  sale  prices,
adversely affecting the Partnership's operating results.

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 three-month  period ended March 31, 2002,
other  rental  income was $60, a decrease of $14 from the  equivalent  period in
2001.  The decrease in other rental  income was primarily due to the decrease in
DPP income of $10, which declined primarily due to the decrease in the number of
containers covered under DPP.

Direct  container  expenses  decreased $49, or 28%, from the three-month  period
ended  March 31, 2001 to the  equivalent  period in 2002,  primarily  due to the
decline in the average fleet size, and further declines in repositioning and DPP
expenses of $44 and $7,  respectively.  The decrease was partially  offset by an
increase in storage expense of $15.  Repositioning  expense decreased  primarily
due to a lower average  repositioning  cost per container.  DPP expense declined
primarily  due to the decrease in the number of  containers  covered  under DPP.
Storage expense increased, despite the decrease in average fleet size, primarily
due to the decrease in average utilization noted above.

Bad debt expense  (benefit)  was $7 and ($2) for the  three-month  periods ended
March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  Fluctuations in bad debt expense/benefit
reflect  the  required  adjustment  to the bad  debt  reserve  and are  based on
management's then current  estimates of the portion of accounts  receivable that
may not be  collected,  and  which  will  not be  covered  by  insurance.  These
estimates  are  based  primarily  on  management's  current  assessment  of  the
financial condition of the Partnership's lessees and their ability to make their
required  payments.  The expense  recorded during the  three-month  period ended
March 31, 2002 reflects a higher reserve requirement from December 31, 2001. The
benefit  recorded during the comparable  period in 2001 reflects a lower reserve
requirement from December 31, 2000.

Depreciation  expense  decreased $24, or 10%, from the three-month  period ended
March 31, 2001 to the equivalent  period in 2002. The decrease was primarily due
to the decline in the average fleet size noted above,  offset by the fluctuation
in the container write-down, as discussed below.

New  container  prices  steadily  declined  from  1995  through  1999.  Although
container prices increased in 2000, these prices declined again in 2001 and have
remained  low during the first  quarter  of 2002.  As a result,  the cost of new
containers purchased in recent years is significantly less than the average cost
of  containers   purchased  in  prior  years.  The  Partnership   evaluated  the
recoverability of the recorded amount of container rental equipment at March 31,
2002 and 2001 for containers to be held for continued use and determined  that a
reduction  to the  carrying  value of these  containers  was not  required.  The
Partnership  also  evaluated  the  recoverability  of  the  recorded  amount  of
containers identified for sale in the ordinary course of business and determined
that a reduction to the carrying  value of these  containers  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
three-month  periods  ended March 31, 2002 and 2001,  the  Partnership  recorded
additional  depreciation  expense  of $54 and $10,  respectively,  on 107 and 32
containers identified as for sale and requiring a reserve. At March 31, 2002 and
2001,  the net book value of the 203 and 112  containers  identified as for sale
was $230 and $132, respectively.

The  Partnership  sold 73 previously  written down  containers  for a loss of $5
during  the  three-month  period  ended  March 31,  2002 and sold 21  previously
written  down  containers  for a loss of $1 during the same period in 2001.  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.

The Partnership also sold containers that had not been written down and recorded
losses of $22 and $0 during the  three-month  periods ended March 31, 2002,  and
2001, respectively.

As 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.

Management  fees to affiliates  increased  $104, or 160%,  from the  three-month
period  ended  March 31,  2001 to the same  period in 2002 due to an increase in
incentive  management  fees offset by a decrease in equipment  management  fees.
Incentive  management  fees,  which are based on the  Partnership's  limited and
general  partner  distributions  made from cash from  operations  and  partners'
capital,  increased $116. This fluctuation was primarily due to an adjustment of
$121 recorded in the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 to reduce incentive
management fees for overpayments made during 1999 and 2000. Equipment management
fees  decreased $12 due to the decrease in rental income,  upon which  equipment
management fees are primarily based.  These fees were approximately 7% of rental
income for both periods.

General and  administrative  costs to affiliates  decreased $7, or 23%, from the
three-month period ended March 31, 2001 to the same period in 2002. The decrease
was primarily due to the decrease in overhead  costs  allocated from TEM, as the
Partnership represented a smaller portion of the total fleet managed by TEM.

The  Partnership  Agreement  provides  for the  ongoing  payment to the  General
Partners of the management fees and the reimbursement of the expenses  discussed
above.  Since these fees and expenses are  established  by the  Agreement,  they
cannot be considered the result of arms' length negotiations with third parties.
The Partnership Agreement was formulated at the Partnership's  inception and was
part of the terms  upon which the  Partnership  solicited  investments  from its
limited partners. The business purpose of paying the General Partners these fees
is to  compensate  the  General  Partners  for the  services  they render to the
Partnership.  Reimbursement  for  expenses  is made to offset  some of the costs
incurred by the General  Partners in managing the  Partnership and its container
fleet.  More details about these fees and expenses are included in footnote 2 to
the Financial Statements.

Loss on sale of containers increased $26 from the three-month period ended March
31,  2001 to the  comparable  period in 2002.  The  increase  in loss on sale of
containers  was primarily due to the  Partnership  selling more  containers at a
lower  average  sales price during the  three-month  period ended March 31, 2002
than in the same period in 2001.

Net  (loss)/earnings  per limited  partnership  unit fluctuated from earnings of
$0.14  during the  three-month  period  ended  March 31, 2001 to a loss of $0.04
during  the  equivalent  period  in  2002,  reflecting  the  fluctuation  in net
(loss)/earnings allocated to limited partners from earnings of $210 to a loss of
$62. The  allocation of net  earnings(loss)  for the  three-month  periods ended
March 31, 2002 and 2001  included a special  allocation  of gross  income to the
General Partners of $7 and $6, respectively,  in accordance with the Partnership
Agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Partnership's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results
of operations are based upon the Partnership's financial statements,  which have
been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.  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. The Partnership's management evaluates its estimates on an
on-going  basis,  including  those  related to the container  rental  equipment,
accounts receivable, and accruals.

These  estimates  are  based  on  historical  experience  and on  various  other
assumptions  that are believed to be  reasonable  under the  circumstances,  the
results of which  form the basis for making  judgments  regarding  the  carrying
values of assets  and  liabilities.  Actual  results  could  differ  from  those
estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The Partnership's management believes the following critical accounting policies
affect its more  significant  judgments and estimates used in the preparation of
its financial statements.

The Partnership  maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses
resulting  from the  inability of its lessees to make required  payments.  These
allowances  are  based  on  management's  current  assessment  of the  financial
condition of the Partnership's  lessees and their ability to make their required
payments.  If the  financial  condition  of the  Partnership's  lessees  were to
deteriorate,  resulting  in an  impairment  of their  ability to make  payments,
additional  allowances  may  be  required,  which  would  adversely  affect  the
Partnership's operating results.

The  Partnership  depreciates  its container  rental  equipment based on certain
estimates  related to the  container's  useful  life and  salvage  value.  These
estimates are based upon assumptions  about future demand for leased  containers
and the  estimated  sales price at the end of the  container's  useful life.  If
these  estimates  were  subsequently  revised based on permanent  changes in the
container leasing market, the Partnership would revise its depreciation  policy,
which could adversely affect the Partnership's operating results.

Additionally,  the  recoverability  of the  recorded  amounts of  containers  is
evaluated to ensure that the recorded  amount does not exceed the estimated fair
value of the  containers.  If it is determined  that the recorded amount exceeds
the  estimated  fair  value,  the  Partnership  writes  down the  value of those
containers.  In  determining  the  estimated  fair value,  assumptions  are made
regarding future demand and market  conditions for leased  containers as well as
for used containers and the sales prices for used  containers.  If actual market
conditions are less favorable than those projected or if actual sales prices are
lower than those  estimated by the  Partnership,  additional  write-downs may be
required.  Any additional  write-downs  would adversely affect the Partnership's
operating results.

Accounting Pronouncement

In August 2001, the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board issued  Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for Impairment or
Disposal  of  Long-Lived   Assets."  SFAS  No.  144  supercedes  SFAS  No.  121,
"Accounting  for the  Impairment  of  Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed of," and
elements of Accounting  Principles  Board Opinion 30,  "Reporting the Results of
Operations  - Reporting  the Effects on Disposal of a Segment of a Business  and
Extraordinary, Unusual or Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions."

SFAS No. 144 establishes a  single-accounting  model for long-lived assets to be
disposed of while  maintaining  many of the  provisions  relating to  impairment
testing and valuation. The Partnership adopted this Statement on January 1, 2002
and  there was no  material  impact on the  Partnership's  financial  condition,
operating results or cash flow.

Risk Factors and Forward Looking Statements

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.

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, including bad debts,  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. See "Critical
Accounting  Policies and Estimates"  above for information on the  Partnership's
critical  accounting policies and how changes in those estimates could adversely
affect the Partnership's results of operations.

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.
