Exhibit 10.25


GATX CORPORATION
2012 INCENTIVE AWARD PLAN
PERFORMANCE SHARE AGREEMENT
FOR EXECUTIVE OFFICERS


This PERFORMANCE SHARE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of January 24, 2013 (the “Grant Date”) by and between the Participant and GATX Corporation (the "Company") in respect of the performance period beginning on January 1, 2013 through and including December 31, 2015 (the “Performance Period”).


WHEREAS, the Company maintains the GATX Corporation 2012 Incentive Award Plan (the "Plan"), which is incorporated into and forms a part of this Agreement, and the Participant has been selected by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”), which has been charged with the responsibility of administering the Plan, to receive a grant of Performance Shares under the Plan;


NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED, by and between the Company and the Participant as follows:


		
	1.
	Defined Terms.  Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in paragraph 13 or elsewhere in this Agreement.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Plan.




		
	2.
	Award.  Subject to the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, the Participant is hereby granted the number of Performance Shares approved by the Committee, subject to Section 3.1 and Article 5 of the Plan and as set forth on the Benefits Access website (https://www.benefitaccess.com) of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney (“MSSB”) or any successor administrator the Committee may designate from time to time to administer the Plan and this Agreement.  Each Performance Share entitles the Participant to receive one share of Common Stock of the Company (each a “Share”) subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.




		
	3.
	Voting Rights and Dividends.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Participant shall not have any rights as a shareholder of the Company, including the right to vote, until the Participant actually receives Shares in accordance with paragraph 4 of this Agreement.   




An account shall be established for the Participant, to which shall be credited dividend equivalents equal to the product of (a) the number of the Participant’s Performance Shares and (b) the dividend declared on a single share of Common Stock.  To the extent the participant becomes vested in Performance Shares, the Participant shall be entitled to a distribution of the dividend equivalents credited to his or her account if and when Shares are issued with respect to Performance Shares to which the Participant becomes entitled pursuant to paragraph 4 of this Agreement.  All dividend equivalents paid will be considered ordinary income and will be subject to supplemental withholding rates for income tax purposes including payroll taxes, applicable to such supplemental income.


		
	4.
	Vesting, Transfer and Forfeiture.  




		
	(a)
	Subject to the terms hereof, if the Company’s Total Gross Income Less Total Ownership Costs for each of the three years during the Performance Period (as reported on the Company’s audited income statement for each such year) is greater than $500,000,000 (the “Threshold Goal”) and the Committee certifies that the Threshold Goal has been achieved, the Participant shall be entitled to the number of Shares set forth in the 2012 resolutions of the Committee providing for the grant of this Performance Share award (the "Unadjusted Award Amount").  However, if the Threshold Goal for the Performance Period is not achieved and certified by the Committee, the Unadjusted Award Amount shall be zero.





1














		
	(b) 
	After the end of the Performance Period, the Committee shall determine the number of the Participant's Performance Shares that have been earned for the Performance Period in accordance with the schedule set forth on Exhibit 1, weighted by the percentages set forth in the column captioned “Weight” on Exhibit 2 and calculated in the manner set forth on Exhibit 2 (provided that the determination under this subparagraph 4(b) shall be subject to modification as provided in paragraph 8 hereof).  The Unadjusted Award Amount shall be reduced to the number of Performance Shares determined to be earned in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this subparagraph 4(b), and any unearned portion of the Unadjusted Award Amount or Performance Shares shall be forfeited.  In no event shall the Performance Shares earned by the Participant exceed the Unadjusted Award Amount.




		
	(c)
	As soon as practicable after the Committee determines the number of the earned Performance Shares pursuant to subparagraphs 4(a) and 4(b) above, but not later than March 15 of the year following the end of the Performance Period, an equal number of Shares shall be transferred to the Participant.




		
	(d)
	Except as provided in subparagraph 4(e) below, if the Participant's Date of Termination occurs prior to the end of the Performance Period, the Participant shall forfeit all Performance Shares and rights under this Agreement. 




		
	(e)
	Notwithstanding subparagraph 4(d) above, the Participant shall become vested in a number of earned Performance Shares hereunder, and shall become owner of an equal number of Shares in respect thereof, free and clear of all restrictions otherwise imposed by this Agreement, as follows:




		
	(i)
	If the Participant’s employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company other than for Cause, not less than eighteen (18) months following the beginning of the Performance Period but on or prior to the end of the Performance Period, the Participant will be entitled to a pro rata portion of his or her earned Performance Shares based on the length of his or her employment during the Performance Period.  The pro rata portion of the Performance Shares shall equal the product of:  




		
	(A) 
	the number of Performance Shares to which the Participant would otherwise be entitled in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph 4 had his or her employment not been terminated; and 




		
	(B)
	a fraction (not greater than one), the numerator of which is the number of days the Participant was employed by the Company or its Subsidiaries during the period beginning on the date of commencement of the Performance Period and ending on the Date of Termination, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the Performance Period.




The Shares to which the Participant is entitled pursuant to this subparagraph 4(e)(i) shall be transferred to the Participant in the year following the end of the Performance Period as soon as practical following the determinations described in subparagraphs 4(a) and 4(b) above, but not later than March 15 of the year following the end of the Performance Period.


		
	(ii)
	If the Participant's Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant's death, Retirement or Disability prior to the end of the Performance Period, the Participant will be entitled to receive a pro rata portion of his or her earned Performance Shares based on the length of his or her employment during the Performance Period.  The pro rata portion of the Performance Shares shall equal the product of:  





2














		
	(A) 
	the number of Performance Shares to which the Participant would otherwise be entitled in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph 4 if no Date of Termination had occurred; and 




		
	(B)
	a fraction (not greater than one), the numerator of which is the number of days during the period beginning on the date of commencement of the Performance Period and ending on the date of the Participant’s death, Retirement or Disability, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the Performance Period. 




Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant’s death, Retirement or Disability, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, increase the number of Performance Shares to which the Participant is entitled, but in no event will the Participant be entitled to a distribution that is greater than what would have been distributable if no Date of Termination had occurred. The Shares to which the Participant is entitled pursuant to this subparagraph 4(e)(ii) shall be transferred to the Participant in the year following the end of the Performance Period as soon as practical following the determinations described in paragraphs 4(a) and 4(b) above, but not later than March 15 of the year following the end of the Performance Period.


		
	(iii)
	Subject to the provisions of Section 14.2 of the Plan (relating to the adjustment of Shares), if a Change in Control occurs prior to a Participant's Date of Termination and before the end of the Performance Period and, within two (2) years after the occurrence of the Change in Control, the Participant's Date of Termination occurs by reason of discharge by the Participant's employer without Cause or the Participant resigns from employment with the employer for Good Reason, the Participant shall become vested in all Performance Shares granted under this Agreement prior to the Change in Control that are held by the Participant as of the Date of Termination, in accordance with subparagraphs 4(e)(iv) or 4(e)(v), as applicable.  




		
	(iv)
	With respect to any Performance Shares that become vested in connection with a Change in Control described in Subsection 2.7(a), (b), (c) or (d) of the Plan, the number of Shares to which the Participant is entitled upon the vesting of his or her Performance Shares shall be calculated as if the Company had achieved 100% performance against its Performance Goals, and shall be transferred to the Participant as soon as practicable following the Date of Termination.  Following a distribution in accordance with this subparagraph 4(e)(iv), the Participant shall have no further rights under this Agreement.




		
	(v)
	With respect to any Performance Shares that become vested in connection with a Change in Control described in Subsection 2.7(e) of the Plan, with respect to a Participant as described therein (relating to certain transactions involving a Subsidiary or Business Segment), as soon as practicable following the Date of Termination, the Participant shall receive a distribution of the following number of Shares, determined on the assumption that the Company achieved 100% performance against its Performance Goals as follows:  




		
	(A)
	If the Date of Termination occurs during the first year of the Performance Period, the Participant shall be entitled to receive Shares equal in number to one-third (1/3) of his or her Performance Shares.




		
	(B)
	If the Date of Termination occurs during the second year of the Performance Period, the Participant shall be entitled to receive Shares equal in number to two-thirds (2/3) of his or her Performance Shares.   





3














		
	(C)
	If a Date of Termination occurs during the third year of the Performance Period, such Participant shall be entitled to receive Shares equal in number to the total of all of his or her Performance Shares.  




Following a distribution in accordance with this subparagraph 4(e)(v), the Participant shall have no further rights under this Agreement.


		
	(vi)
	For purposes of subparagraphs 4(e)(iii) and 4(e)(v) hereof, if, as a result of a Change in Control described in Subsection 2.7(e) of the Plan, the Participant’s employer ceases to be a Subsidiary (and the Participant’s employer is or becomes an entity that is separate from the Company), and the Participant is not, immediately following the Change in Control, employed by the Company or an entity that is then a Subsidiary, then the occurrence of the Change in Control shall be treated as the Participant’s Date of Termination caused by the Participant being discharged by the employer without Cause.  




		
	(f)
	Except pursuant to a domestic relations order, the Performance Shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered until Shares have been distributed to the Participant free and clear of all restrictions.




		
	5.
	Withholding.  The granting, vesting and settlement of Performance Shares under this Agreement are subject to withholding of all applicable taxes.  Subject to such rules and limitations as may be established by the Committee from time to time, the Participant may satisfy his or her withholding obligations through (i) payment of cash to the Company equal to the amount of taxes required to be withheld, (ii) contemporaneously withholding from other sources of income otherwise payable to the Participant by the Company or any Subsidiary, or (iii) the surrender of Shares which the Participant already owns, or to which the Participant is otherwise entitled under the Plan or this Agreement; provided, however, that, except as otherwise provided by the Committee, Shares otherwise payable under this Agreement may not be used to satisfy more than the Company's minimum statutory withholding obligation (based on minimum statutory withholding rates for income tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income) .  In the event that the withholding obligation arises during a period in which the Participant is prohibited from trading in Common Stock pursuant to the Company’s insider trading policy, or by applicable securities or other laws, then unless otherwise elected by the Participant during a period when he or she was not so restricted from trading, the Company shall automatically satisfy the Participant’s withholding obligation by withholding from Shares otherwise deliverable under this Agreement.




		
	6.
	Heirs and Successors.  This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Company and its successors and assigns, including any person acquiring, whether by merger, consolidation, purchase of assets or otherwise, all or substantially all of the Company's assets and business.  If any rights of the Participant or benefits distributable to the Participant under this Agreement have not been exercised or distributed, respectively, at the time of the Participant's death, such rights shall be exercisable by the Designated Beneficiary, and such benefits shall be distributed to the Designated Beneficiary, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan.  If a deceased Participant fails to designate a beneficiary, or if the Designated Beneficiary does not survive the Participant, any rights that would have been exercisable by the Participant and any benefits distributable to the Participant shall be exercised by or distributed to the legal representative of the estate of the Participant.  If the Designated Beneficiary survives the Participant but dies before the exercise of all rights or the complete distribution of benefits under this Agreement, then any remaining rights and any remaining benefit distribution shall be exercisable by or distributed to the legal representative of the estate of the Designated Beneficiary.




		
	7.
	Administration.  The authority to manage and control the operation and administration of this Agreement shall be vested in the Committee, and the Committee shall have all powers with respect to this Agreement as it has with respect to the Plan.  Any interpretation of this Agreement by the Committee and any decision made by it with respect to this Agreement shall be final and binding on all persons.





4














		
	8.
	Modification of Performance Goals.  Pursuant to Subsection 2.33(b) of the Plan, in determining the extent to which the Performance Goals (but not the Threshold Goal) have been achieved, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, include or exclude items or events that impact the final results, positively or negatively, as it deems appropriate.




		
	9.
	Plan Governs.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the terms of this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of the Plan, a copy of which may be obtained by the Participant from the Director, Compensation of the Company. This Agreement is subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations promulgated by the Committee from time to time pursuant to the Plan.




		
	10.
	Not An Employment Contract.  The grant of Performance Shares hereunder will not confer on the Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment or other service with the Company or any Subsidiary, nor will it interfere in any way with any right the Company or any Subsidiary would otherwise have to terminate or modify the terms of such Participant's employment or other service at any time.




		
	11.
	Notices.  Any written notices provided for in this Agreement or the Plan shall be provided in accordance with subparagraph 11(a) or 11(b), as applicable and, if provided to the Company, shall be addressed as follows:
