TEXTAINER EQUIPMENT INCOME FUND V, L.P.
(a California Limited Partnership)

Notes To Financial Statements

For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 
(Amounts in thousands except for per unit amounts) 
(unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Note 1.   General

      Textainer  Equipment Income Fund V, L.P. (the  Partnership),  a California
      limited  partnership  with a maximum life of 20 years, was formed in 1993.
      The  Partnership  owns  and  leases  a fleet of  intermodal  marine  cargo
      containers which are leased to international shipping lines.

      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 June 30, 1998 and December  31,  1997,  and the
      results of its operations,  changes in partners'  capital,  and cash flows
      for the three- and six-month  periods  ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,  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  audited financial statements as of December
      31, 1997, in the Annual Report filed on Form 10K.

      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.

Note 2.   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 June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the
      amounts accrued were $102 and $89, respectively.

Note 3.   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,  as a result,  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 June 30,  1998  and  December  31,  1997,  was $362 and  $340,
      respectively.

Note 4.   Acquisition of Containers

      The Partnership did not purchase  containers  during the six-month  period
      ended June 30, 1998.  During the six-month period ended June 30, 1997, the
      Partnership purchased containers with a cost of $239.


Note 5.   Transactions with Affiliates

      Textainer Capital  Corporation (TCC) is the managing general partner,  and
      Textainer  Equipment  Management  Limited (TEM) and Textainer Limited (TL)
      are the  associate  general  partners  of the  Partnership.  The  managing
      general partner and associate  general partners are collectively  referred
      to as the General Partners. The General Partners also act in this capacity
      for other limited  partnerships.  Textainer  Acquisition  Services Limited
      (TAS) is an  affiliate of the General  Partners  which  performs  services
      relative to the  acquisition  of  containers  outside the United States on
      behalf  of the  Partnership.  TCC,  TEM,  TL and TAS are  subsidiaries  of
      Textainer Group Holdings  Limited (TGH).  The General  Partners manage and
      control the affairs of the Partnership.

      In accordance with the Partnership Agreement,  net earnings  or losses and
      distributions  are  allocated  1% to the General  Partners  and 99% to the
      limited  partners.  Gross  income is  specially allocated  to the  General
      Partners to the extent that their  capital accounts'  deficits  exceed the
      portion   of   syndication   and   offering  costs   allocated   to  them.
      Notwithstanding  the above,  the  special allocation  of gross  income and
      restoration of deficit  general  partner  capital accounts was deferred by
      Partnership   Agreement   amendment   until  the  Partnership's   complete
      syndication  which  occurred  during the year ended December 31, 1996.  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,  or TAS, an incentive management fee, an acquisition
      fee, an equipment management fee and an equipment liquidation fee, as well
      as reimburse the General Partners for certain  administrative costs. These
      fees  are  for  various   services   provided  in   connection   with  the
      administration and management of the Partnership. The Partnership incurred
      $85 and $169 of incentive  management fees during the three- and six-month
      periods ended June 30, 1998 and $85 and $178 of incentive  management fees
      for the  comparable  periods  in  1997.  The  Partnership  did  not  incur
      container  acquisition  fees during the  six-month  period  ended June 30,
      1998. The  Partnership  capitalized $13 of container  acquisition  fees as
      part of container  costs during the six-month  period ended June 30, 1997.
      No equipment liquidation fees were incurred during either period.

      The  container  fleet  of the  Partnership  is  managed  by  TEM.  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 container leasing
      operations;  such cash is included in the amount due from affiliates,  net
      at June 30, 1998 and due to affiliates, net at December 31, 1997.

      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. For
      the three- and six-month  periods ended June 30, 1998, these fees  totaled
      $248 and $507, respectively, and for the comparable periods ended June 30,
      1997 these fees totaled $231 and $467,  respectively.   The  Partnership's
      container  fleet is  leased by TEM to  third-party  lessees  on  operating
      master  leases,  spot leases and term leases.  The majority 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 TCC and TEM.  For the  three-  and
      six-month  periods ended June 30, 1998,  total general and  administrative
      costs  allocated  to the  Partnership  were $204 and $435 of which $87 and
      $182,  respectively,  were for salaries.  Total general and administrative
      costs allocated to the  Partnership  were $226 and $460 for the three- and
      six-month   periods   ended  June  30,  1997,  of  which  $128  and  $251,
      respectively, were for salaries.

      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.  TCC  allocates  these
      costs  based on the  ratio of the  Partnership's  containers  to the total
      container fleet of all limited  partnerships  managed by TCC.  General and
      administrative  costs  allocated to the  Partnership  by TEM were $184 and
      $394 for the three- and  six-month  periods  ended June 30,  1998 and were
      $193 and $399 for the  comparable  periods in 1997.  TCC allocated $20 and
      $41 of general and administrative  costs to the Partnership for the three-
      and  six-month  periods  ended June 30, 1998 and allocated $33 and $61 for
      the comparable periods in 1997.

      The General  Partners or TAS may acquire  containers in their own name and
      hold  title on a  temporary  basis for the  purpose  of  facilitating  the
      acquisition  of such  containers for the  Partnership.  The containers 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  or TAS  are  entitled  to an  acquisition  fee  for any
      containers resold to the Partnership.

      At June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, due from (to)  affiliates,  net is
      comprised of:

      Included in the  amounts  due to TL at December  31, 1997 is $318 in loans
      used to facilitate  container  purchases.  This loan was repaid in full on
      March 31, 1998.  There were no borrowings from  affiliates  outstanding at
      June 30, 1998. All other 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 the accrual and remittance
      of net rental revenues by TEM.

      It is the policy of the  Partnership  and the  General  Partners to charge
      interest on amounts due to the General  Partners which are outstanding for
      more than one  month,  to the  extent  such  balances  relate to loans for
      container  purchases.  Interest is charged at a rate not greater  than the
      General  Partners'  or  affiliates'  own cost of  funds.  The  Partnership
      incurred $7 of interest expense on amounts due to the General Partners for
      the  three-  and  six-month  periods  ended  June 30,  1998.  There was no
      interest  expense  incurred on amounts due to the General Partners for the
      three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997.

Note 6.   Rentals Under Operating Leases

      The following are the future  minimum rent  receivables  under  cancelable
      long-term  operating  leases at June 30,  1998.  Although  the  leases are
      generally  cancelable  at  the  end of  each  twelve-month  period  with a
      penalty,  the  following  schedule  assumes  that the  leases  will not be
      terminated.

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- and  six-month  periods
ended June 30, 1998 and 1997. Please refer to the Financial Statements and Notes
thereto in connection with the following discussion.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

From  May 1,  1994  until  April  29,  1996,  the  Partnership  offered  limited
partnership  interests  to the  public.  The  Partnership  received  its minimum
subscription  amount of $5,000 on August 23, 1994,  and on April 29,  1996,  the
Partnership's offering of limited partnership interests was closed at $89,305.

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 six-month period ended June 30, 1998,
the Partnership did not redeem any units.

The Partnership  invests working capital and cash flow from operations  prior to
its  distribution  to  the  partners  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.

During the six-month  period ended June 30, 1998, the Partnership  declared cash
distributions  to limited  partners  pertaining to the period from December 1997
through  May 1998,  in the amount of $4,009.  These  distributions  represent  a
return of 9% on original capital (measured on an annualized basis) on each unit.
On a cash basis,  all of these  distributions  were from  operations.  On a GAAP
basis, $1,822 of these distributions was a return of capital and the balance was
from net earnings. Beginning with cash distributions to limited partners for the
month of July 1998, payable August 1998, the Partnership will make distributions
at an  annualized  rate of 8% on each unit.  This  reduction in the  Partnership
distribution  rate is a result  of the  current  market  conditions,  which  are
discussed in detail below.

At June 30, 1998, the Partnership had no commitments to purchase containers.

Net cash provided by operating  activities for the six-month periods ending June
30, 1998 and 1997, was $4,638 and $4,020, respectively. This increase of $618 is
primarily  attributable  to an  increase  in net  earnings  of  $664,  resulting
primarily from an increase in other rental revenue which is discussed more fully
in "Results of Operations."

For the six-month  period  ending June 30, 1998,  net cash provided by investing
activities (the purchase and sale of containers) was $95 compared to $53 for the
equivalent  period in 1997.  The  fluctuation  of $42 is due to the  Partnership
having purchased more containers during the six-month period ended June 30, 1997
than in the comparable period in 1998 and having sold more containers during the
six-month period ended June 30, 1997 than in the comparable  period in 1998. The
General Partners believe that these differences  reflect normal  fluctuations in
container   sales   and   purchases.   However,   recent   container   purchases
(reinvestment) are currently lower than anticipated due to the adverse effect of
market  conditions on cash  available for  reinvestment.  Market  conditions are
discussed more fully in "Results of Operations".  Consistent with its investment
objectives,  the Partnership  intends to reinvest all or a significant amount of
proceeds from future container sales in additional  containers.  However, due to
the difference  between sales proceeds and new container  prices,  the number of
additional containers purchased may not equal the number of containers sold.

During 1997 the  Partnership  borrowed  $318 from a General  Partner to purchase
containers.  It is the policy of the  Partnership  and the  General  Partners to
charge  interest on borrowings from  affiliates  arising from the  Partnership's
acquisition  of  containers  which  are  outstanding  for more  than one  month.
Interest is charged to the  Partnership  at a rate not greater  than the General
Partners' own cost of funds.  The  Partnership  paid $10 of interest  during the
six-month  period ended June 30, 1998.  The interest rate in effect at March 31,
1998 was 8.5%.  The  Partnership  repaid  the loan on March  31,  1998 with cash
provided by operations and proceeds from the sale of containers.

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  six-month  periods ended June 30, 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:

                                                               1998        1997

                   Opening container fleet.................   24,288      23,952
                   Closing container fleet.................   24,226      23,863
                   Average container fleet.................   24,257      23,908

Rental income and direct container expenses are also affected by the utilization
of the container  fleet,  which was 85% and 82% on average  during the six-month
periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  In addition,  rental income
is affected by daily rental rates and leasing incentives.

The  following is a comparative  analysis of the results of  operations  for the
six-month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.

The  Partnership's  income from operations for the six-month periods ending June
30,  1998 and 1997 was  $2,198 and  $1,495,  respectively,  on rental  income of
$7,265 and $6,702,  respectively.  The increase in rental income of $563, or 8%,
from the six-month  period ended June 30, 1997 to the comparable  period in 1998
was  primarily  attributable  to an increase  in other  rental  income  which is
discussed  below.  Income from container  rentals,  the major component of total
revenue,  increased  $175, or 3%. This increase was primarily due to an increase
in average  on-hire  (utilization)  percentage  of 4%, an increase in containers
available for lease (average  fleet) of 1% and a decrease in leasing  incentives
of 50%, and was offset by a decrease in average rental rates of 5%.

Container  utilization  and rental rates declined during 1996 and 1997 primarily
due to decreased  demand for leased  containers and increased  competition.  The
decrease in demand for leased  containers  resulted from changes in the business
of shipping line customers consisting  primarily of (i) over-capacity  resulting
from the 1995 and 1996 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  reducing  their ratio of leased  versus owned  containers  by  purchasing
containers.  This decreased demand,  along with 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. Rental rates were also
adversely  affected  by a drop in the  purchase  price of new  containers  which
resulted in additional downward pressure on rental rates.

Average utilization for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998 was
greater than the average utilization for the comparable periods in 1997. Despite
the improvement in average utilization from the prior year, utilization has been
slowly declining over the last six months. Rental rates have also been declining
and average rental rates for the six-month  period ended June 30, 1998 are lower
than average  rental  rates for the same period in 1997.  These  decreases  were
offset by decreased  leasing  incentives  during the six-month period ended June
30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997.  The  improvement  in  utilization
over the prior year and overall  improvement in leasing  incentives is primarily
due to increased demand in Asia. The weakening of many Asian currencies resulted
in a significant increase in exports from Asia which has created a strong demand
for containers in certain locations.  However, the weakening of these currencies
has also  lowered  demand in Asia for  imports  from  North  America  and Europe
resulting in a lower demand for  containers  in these areas.  For the near term,
the  General  Partners  do not  foresee  material  changes  in  existing  market
conditions  and caution that both  utilization  and rental rates could  continue
declining, 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.

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 and
returning  containers and income from charges to lessees for a Damage Protection
Plan (DPP).  For the  six-month  period ended June 30, 1998,  the total of these
other  rental  income  items was $880,  an increase of $388 from the  equivalent
period in 1997.  The  primary  component  of this  increase  was an  increase in
location  income of $466 offset by  decreases  in handling and DPP income of $53
and $25,  respectively.  Location income  increased due to a decrease in credits
given to lessees for picking up containers from certain locations and due to the
inclusion  of  certain  credits  received  during  1997 and 1998  which had been
previously applied against repositioning expense.  Handling income decreased due
to a decrease in container  movement and a lower average  handling price charged
per  container.  The decrease in DPP income  resulted  from a lower  average DPP
price charged per container offset by a larger number of containers leased under
DPP.

Direct  container  expenses were comparable from the six-month period ended June
30,  1997 to the  equivalent  period in 1998  primarily  due to an  increase  in
repositioning  expense of $171 offset by a decrease in storage  expense of $157.
Repositioning  expense  increased  due to the  removal of certain  credits  from
repositioning  costs to other rental income as discussed above.  Storage expense
decreased  primarily due to the increase in average  utilization from 82% during
the  six-month  period ended June 30, 1997 to 85% for the  comparable  period in
1998.

Bad debt  expense  decreased  from an expense of $118 for the  six-month  period
ended June 30, 1997 to a benefit of $28 for the  comparable  period  ending June
30, 1998.  The benefit  recorded in 1998 was primarily due to the  resolution of
payment issues with one lessee.

Depreciation  expense increased $17, or 1%, from the six-month period ended June
30, 1997 to the same period in 1998  primarily due to the 1% increase in average
fleet size.

Management  fees to affiliates  increased $31, or 5%, from the six-month  period
ended June 30,  1997 to the  equivalent  period in 1998,  due to an  increase in
equipment  management fees,  offset by a decrease in incentive  management fees.
Subject  to certain  reductions,  equipment  management  fees are based on gross
revenue and were  approximately 7% of gross revenue for both periods.  Incentive
management  fees,  which  are based on the  Partnership's  limited  and  general
partner  distributions,  decreased  due to the  decrease in the limited  partner
distribution percentage from 10% to 9% in April 1997.

General and  administrative  costs to affiliates  decreased $25, or 5%, from the
six-month period ended June 30, 1997 to the comparable period ending in 1998 due
to a decrease in overhead costs allocated by TCC and TEM.

Other income provided $31 of additional  income for the six-month  period ending
June 30, 1998, a decrease of $39 compared to the equivalent  period in 1997. The
decrease was due to decreases in gain on sale of containers and interest  income
of $32 and $7, respectively.

Net earnings per limited partnership unit increased from $0.34 to $0.49 from the
six-month  period  ending  June  30,  1997 to the  equivalent  period  in  1998,
reflecting  the increase in net  earnings  allocated  to limited  partners  from
$1,519 to $2,187, for the same periods.


The  following is a comparative  analysis of the results of  operations  for the
three-month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.

The Partnership's income from operations for the three-month periods ending June
30, 1998 and 1997 was $1,269 and $633, respectively,  on rental income of $3,546
and $3,310, respectively. The increase in rental income of $236, or 7%, from the
three-month  period  ended June 30,  1997 to the  comparable  period in 1998 was
attributable  to increases in income from container  rentals and in other rental
income. Income from container rentals increased $130, or 4%, primarily due to an
increase  in  average  fleet  size of 1%, an  increase  in  average  utilization
percentage  of 2% and a  decrease  in  leasing  incentives  of 60%,  offset by a
decrease in average rental rates of 4%.

The balance of other  rental  income for the  three-month  period ended June 30,
1998 was $330,  an  increase  of $106 from the  comparable  period in 1997.  The
primary  component of this increase was an increase in location  income of $169,
offset by a decrease in handling income of $51. Location income increased due to
a decrease in credits  given to lessees for picking up  containers  from certain
locations.  Handling  income  decreased  to due  to a  decrease  in the  average
handling price charged per container and a decrease in container movement during
the three-month  period ending June 30, 1998 when compared to the same period in
1997.

Direct container  expenses  decreased $148, or 19%, from the three-month  period
ending  June 30,  1997 to the  equivalent  period  in  1998.  The  decrease  was
primarily  due to  decreases  in storage and  handling  expenses of $66 and $47,
respectively. Storage expense decreased primarily due to the increase in average
utilization.  Handling  expense  decreased  primarily  due  to the  decrease  in
container movement.

Bad debt expense  decreased from an expense of $103 for the  three-month  period
ended June 30, 1997 to a benefit of $138 for the comparable  period in 1998. The
benefit  recorded in 1998 was primarily due to the  resolution of payment issues
with one lessee.

Depreciation  expense  increased $13, or 1%, from the  three-month  period ended
June 30, 1997 to the same period in 1998 due to the 1% increase in average fleet
size.

Management fees to affiliates  increased $17, or 5%, from the three-month period
ended June 30,  1997 to the  comparable  period in 1998,  due to an  increase in
equipment management fees resulting from the increase in gross revenue.

General and administrative  costs to affiliates  decreased $22, or 10%, from the
three-month period ended June 30, 1997 to the comparable period in 1998 due to a
decrease in overhead costs allocated by TCC and TEM.

Other  income  increased  $7  primarily  due to an  increase  in gain on sale of
containers  of $6 from  the  three-month  period  ending  June  30,  1997 to the
equivalent period in 1998.

Net earnings per limited partnership unit increased from $0.14 to $0.28 from the
three-month  period ending June 30, 1997 to the same period in 1998,  reflecting
the increase in net earnings  allocated to limited partners from $618 to $1,262,
respectively.

Many computer systems may experience difficulty processing dates beyond the year
1999 and, as such, some computer  hardware and software will need to be modified
prior to the year 2000 to remain functional. Certain of the General Partners and
Partnership's  core internal systems where Year 2000 issues have been identified
are currently being revised.  Based on its initial  evaluation,  the Partnership
and the  General  Partners  do not  believe  that the cost of  remedial  actions
relating  to  these  systems  will  have  a  material   adverse  effect  on  the
Partnership's results of operations and financial condition.  Additionally,  the
Partnership  and the General  Partners are continuing  their  assessment of Year
2000  issues not related to their core  systems,  including  issues  surrounding
systems that  interface  with external  third  parties.  If external third party
systems  are not Year 2000  compliant,  those  external  third  parties may have
difficulty  conducting  ordinary  operations,  which could adversely  affect the
General Partners and the Partnership.

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 June 30, 1998 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.
