                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                   Unaudited)

Note 1.  General

  The accompanying unaudited interim comparative financial statements have not
  been audited by an independent public accountant.  However, all adjustments
  (including normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of
  management, necessary to fairly present the financial position of the
  Partnership as of March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 and the results of its
  operations, changes in partners' capital and cash flows for the three-month
  periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, 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 December 31, 1994.

  For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Partnership considers all
  highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three
  months or less to be cash equivalents.

  Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made in order to
  conform with the 1995 financial statement presentation.

Note 2.  Acquisition of Equipment

  During the three-month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, the Partnership
  purchased container rental equipment (the "Equipment") with a cost of
  $882,275 and $531,794, respectively.

Note 3.  Transactions with Affiliates

  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).  Textainer Equipment Management
  Limited (TEM) (prior to being redomiciled on December 20, 1994, TEM was known
  as Textainer Equipment Management N.V. ) 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 three other
  limited partnerships as of March 31, 1995.  Textainer Acquisition Services
  Limited (TAS) is an affiliate of the General Partners which performs services
  relative to the acquisition of Equipment outside the United States on behalf
  of the Partnership.  TCC Securities Corporation (TSC), a licensed broker and
  dealer in securities and an affiliate of the General Partners, was the
  managing sales agent for the offering of Units for sale.

  In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, net earnings (losses),
  syndication and offering costs and partnership distributions are allocated 1%
  to the general partners and 99% to the limited partners, with the exception
  of gains on sales of containers.  Such gains are allocated to the General
  Partners to the extent that their partners' capital accounts' deficits exceed
  the portion of syndication and offering costs allocated to them.  On
  termination of the Partnership, the General Partners shall be allocated gross
  income equal to their allocations of syndication and offering costs.

  As part of the operation of the Partnership, the Partnership is to pay to the
  General Partners an incentive management fee, an acquisition fee, an
  equipment 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 capitalized $14,023 and
  $25,324 of equipment acquisition fees as part of container costs during the
  three-month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.  The
  Partnership



                                       9
<PAGE>   10
  incurred $30,988 and $25,600 of incentive management fees during the three-
  month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994.  No equipment liquidation fees
  were incurred during the first three-month periods of 1995 or 1994.

  The Partnership's Equipment is managed by TEM.  In its role as manager, TEM
  has authority to acquire, hold, manage, lease, sell and dispose of the
  Partnership's Equipment.  In addition, TEM has entered into an agreement with
  its 100%-owned subsidiary Textainer Storage Services (TSS) to manage storage
  containers. As of March 31, 1995, the Partnership owned storage containers
  with an original cost of $30,418.  Subject to certain reductions, TEM
  receives a monthly equipment management fee equal to 7% of gross lease
  revenues attributable to operating leases and 2% of gross lease revenues
  attributable to full payout net leases.  Such fee is either retained by TEM
  or the fee allocable to TSS, if any, is passed through by TEM for services
  rendered. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, these
  fees totaled $119,324 and $109,787, respectively.  The Partnership's
  Equipment is leased by TEM and TSS to third party lessees on operating master
  leases, spot leases and term leases.  The majority of the Equipment is leased
  under operating leases with limited terms and no purchase option.  There are
  eight direct financing leases at March 31, 1995 (note 5).

  Certain indirect general and administrative costs incurred in performing
  administrative services necessary to the operation of the Partnership are
  borne by TEM and TSS and are allocated to the Partnership based on the ratio
  of the Partnership's interest in managed Equipment to the total equipment
  managed by TEM and TSS for the period.  Indirect general and administrative
  costs allocated to the Partnership were $83,677 and $84,583 for the three-
  month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

  TFS also incurred general and administrative costs of $15,755 and $14,631
  during the three-month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively,
  which were reimbursed by the Partnership.

  The General Partners may acquire Equipment in their own name and hold title
  on a temporary basis for the purpose of facilitating the acquisition of such
  Equipment for the Partnership.  The Equipment may then be resold to the
  Partnership on an all-cash basis at a price equal to the actual cost, as
  defined in the Partnership Agreement.  In addition, the General Partners are
  entitled to an acquisition fee for any Equipment resold to the Partnership.

  At March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, due from and to affiliates are

  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 payment of expenses and fees
  described above or in the accrual and collection of net rental revenues from
  TEM and TSS. It is the policy of the Partnership and the General Partners to
  charge interest on intercompany balances which are outstanding for more than
  one month.  Interest was charged at the Prime Rate plus .25%.  As of July
  1994, this policy was changed so that the Partnership is not charged interest
  on intercompany balances except for loans on equipment purchases.  The
  Partnership incurred interest expense of $0 and $3,285, respectively, on
  intercompany balances payable to TFS and TAS during the three months ended
  March 31, 1995 and 1994.

  Rental income for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994
  includes $37,009 and $45,458, respectively, of income from direct financing
  leases.

Note 6.  Commitments

  At March 31, 1995, the Partnership has committed to purchase eight containers
  at an approximate total purchase price of $33,264 which includes acquisition
  fees of $1,584.  These commitments were made to TAS which, as the contracting
  party, has in turn committed to purchase this equipment on behalf of the
  Partnership. The Partnership has sufficient capital at March 31, 1995 to
  satisfy these commitments.

Note 7.  Redemptions

  An initial redemption offering was consummated on June 24, 1994, wherein the
  Partnership paid $13,511 for the redemption of 1,525 units. The redemption
  price is fixed by formula and varies depending on the length of time the
  units are outstanding.  The approximate redemption prices ranged between
  $6.35 and $9.50 per unit.  A second redemption offering was consummated on
  October 31,1994 with no units redeemed.  A third redemption offering was
  consummated on February 3, 1995 wherein the Partnership paid $3,982 for the
  redemption of 500 units at an average cost of $8 per unit.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On October 26, 1989, the Partnership's offering of limited partnership interests
was closed at $29,491,080.

The Partnership has set up a program whereby limited partners may redeem units
for a specified redemption value. The redemption price is set by formula and
varies depending on the length of time units have been outstanding.  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.  On February 3, 1995,
the Partnership paid $3,982 for the redemption of 500 units.

The Partnership invests working capital and cash flow from operations prior to
its distribution or reinvestment in additional equipment in short-term, highly
liquid investments.  At March 31, 1995, the Partnership's cash of $490,302 was
primarily invested in a market-rate account.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 1995, the Partnership declared
cash distributions to limited partners pertaining to the fourth quarter of 1994
in the amount of $662,863.  These distributions represent a 9% annualized return
of each unit.  These distributions were made solely from net earnings and do not
represent a return of capital.

It is the policy of the Partnership to maintain a minimum working capital
reserve in an amount which is the lesser of (i) 1% of capital contributions or
(ii) $100,000.

On December 9, 1992, the Partnership was granted a short-term revolving credit
line of $2,000,000 which was available for equipment purchases.  This credit
line was terminated by the Partnership on July 26, 1994.

At March 31, 1995, the Partnership had committed to purchase eight containers at
an approximate total price of $33,264 which includes acquisition fees of $1,584.
At March 31, 1995, the Partnership had cash on hand of $490,302 to meet these
commitments.  In the event the Partnership decides not to purchase the
equipment, one of the General Partners will retain the equipment for its own
account.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Partnership's operations, which consist of rental revenue, container
depreciation, direct container expenses, management fees, and reimbursement of
administrative expenses were directly related to the size of the container fleet
during the three-month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994.  The following is
a summary of the size of the container fleet (in units) available for lease
during those periods:

<TABLE>

Opening inventory......................      8,245              8,140
Closing inventory......................      8,400              8,107
Average................................      8,323              8,124
</TABLE>

Rental revenue and direct container expenses are also affected by lease
utilization percentages for the Equipment which were 91% and 85% on average
during the three-month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. In
addition, rental revenue is affected by daily rental rates.  The following is a
comparative analysis of the results of operations for the three-month periods
ended March 31, 1995 and 1994.

The Partnership's income from operations for the three-month periods ended March
31, 1995 and 1994 was $668,163 and $363,899, respectively, on gross rental
revenues of $1,689,122 and $1,498,563, respectively.  The increase in total
revenue of $190,560 or 12.7% from the three-month period ended March 31, 1994 to
the equivalent period in 1995 was primarily attributable to rental income, the
major component of total rental revenue, which increased by $103,816 or 8%, from
1994 to 1995.  Rental income is largely dependent upon three factors: equipment
available for lease (average inventory), average on-hire (utilization)
percentage and average daily rental



                                       12

<PAGE>   13

rates.  Average inventory increased 2.4%, average utilization increased by six
percentage points, and average daily rental rates increased 5% from the
three-month period ended March 31, 1994 to the three-month period ended March
31, 1995.  Substantially all of the Partnership's rental revenue was generated
from the leasing of the Partnership's Equipment under short-term operating
leases.  There were eight direct financing leases at March 31, 1995 (note 5).

The balance of total rental revenues consisted of other lease-related items,
primarily income from charges to the lessees for handling and returning
containers less credits granted to the lessees when a container is leased out.
For the three-month period ended March 31, 1995, the total of these other
revenue items increased by $86,743 or 4.8% over the equivalent period in 1994.

Direct container expenses, excluding a provision for bad debt expense, decreased
by $118,974, or 35%, from the three-month period ended March 31, 1995 to the
equivalent period in 1994.  The primary components of this net decrease were
costs incurred for storage costs (which decreased by $40,980 between periods),
handling costs (which decreased by $9,806 between periods), maintenance and
repair costs (which decreased by $59,849 between periods) and costs incurred for
the repositioning of containers (which decreased by $22,312 between periods).
Storage expenses declined due to higher utilization rates in the first three
months of 1995 compared to the same period of 1994.  The decrease in maintenance
and repair costs resulted from a lower number of units returned requiring
repairs during the three-month period ending March 31, 1995 than for the
equivalent period in 1994 and a lower average cost to repair units in the first
three months of 1995 compared to the same period in 1994.

Provision for bad debt expense increased by $19,155 in the three-month period
ending March 31, 1994 compared to the same period in 1995 due to higher specific
reserve requirements for certain lessees.

Depreciation expense decreased by $37,300, or 7%, from the three months ended
March 31, 1994 to the same period in 1995.  This decrease is primarily
attributable to a previous purchase of used equipment which has now been fully
depreciated.

Management fees to affiliates were $14,925 higher in the first three-month
period of 1995 than in the first three-month period of 1994 due to an increase
in incentive management fee resulting from a higher distribution rate.  The
distribution rate has increased from 8.25% in the first quarter of 1994, to
10.00% for the three months ended March 31, 1995.  Management fees as a percent
of gross revenue were 8.9% for the three-month period ended March 31, 1995
compared to 9% for the same period in 1994.  Equipment management fees were 7%
of revenue for both three-month periods and incentive management fees were 1.8%
of revenue for the three-month period ended March 31, 1995 and 1.7% of revenue
for the three-month period ended March 31, 1994.

General and administrative costs reimbursed to affiliates decreased as a
percentage of total rental revenue from 6.6% for the first three months of 1994
to 5.9% (an 11% decrease) in the same period in 1995.  This decrease was
primarily due to a decline in the amount of overhead costs allocated by TEM
during these periods.

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.
Once the Equipment is on-hire with a lessee, the Partnership has no way of
knowing its location.  The domicile of the lessee is not indicative of where the
lessee is transporting the Equipment.  The Partnership's business risk in its
foreign operations lies with the creditworthiness of the lessees rather than the
geographic location of the Equipment or the domicile of the lessees. The
Partnership's containers are generally operated on the international high seas
rather than on the domestic waterways.  The Partnership's Equipment is subject
to the risk of war or other political, economic or social occurrence where the
Equipment is used, which may result in the loss of Equipment, 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
March 31, 1995 which would result in the materialization of such risk.
