                    PS GROUP HOLDINGS COMPLETES DISPOSITION
                         OF ITS OIL AND GAS SUBSIDIARY

     SAN DIEGO, CA -- March 21, 2000 -- PS Group Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:PSG)
announced today that it has completed its pending disposition of Statex
Petroleum, Inc., its Texas-based oil and gas exploration and distribution
subsidiary.

     Statex was acquired by Statex Petroleum I, L.P., a newly-organized entity
formed by the two senior officers of the former Statex subsidiary and third
party investors.  The initial purchase price consisted of $4.15 million in cash
(less $50,000 of transactional expenses).  An additional $400,000 in cash is
payable over the next four quarters.  Contingent payments of up to a maximum of
$1,300,000 are also potentially payable, as described in the company's
supplement dated March 13, 2000 to its proxy materials relating to its pending
merger with an affiliate of Integrated Capital Associates, Inc.  In connection
with the closing of the Statex disposition, existing bank debt of $6.65 million
was retired with the proceeds of a new secured loan made to the buying entity by
International Bank of Commerce.

     With the disposition of Statex, the company's oil and gas production and
development segment will be treated as a discontinued operation.  The company
estimates that the combined effects of this disposition and the results of
operation of the segment from January 1, 2000 through March 21, 2000 will
result in a net loss from discontinued operations in 2000 of approximately
$900,000 or $(.15) per share.

     As previously announced, stockholders of the company are scheduled to vote
on the pending merger with an affiliate of Integrated Capital Associates at the
reconvened special meeting to be held on March 23, 2000.  If that transaction is
completed, stockholders will receive $12.00 per share in cash.  The closing of
the Statex disposition has not affected the price or other terms of the merger
agreement.
