TO BE HELD ON APRIL 24, 2020

To the Shareholders of GATX Corporation:

Due to the public health impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and to support the health and well-being of its employees, shareholders and community, NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the location of the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of GATX Corporation, to be held on Friday, April 24, 2020 at 9:00 a.m. Central Time, has been changed from an in-person meeting in Chicago, Illinois to a virtual meeting format only.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE IN THE VIRTUAL ANNUAL MEETING

As described in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting previously distributed, you are entitled to participate in the Annual Meeting if you were a shareholder as of the close of business on February 28, 2020, the record date.

Shareholders of Record: If you were a shareholder of record as of the record date, you will need to visit www.meetingcenter.io/275628729 and enter your 15-digit Control Number and the password. Your Control Number was provided in the proxy card you received, and the password is GATX2020.

Beneficial Owners: Beneficial owners of shares held in street name will need to register in advance to receive a Control Number and participate in the meeting. To register you must obtain a legal proxy, executed in your favor, from the broker, bank or other nominee that holds your shares and submit proof of your legal proxy reflecting the number of shares of GATX stock you held as of the record date, along with your name and email address to Computershare. Please forward the email from your record holder, or attach an image of your legal proxy to an email, to legalproxy@computershare.com. Requests for registration must be labeled as “Legal Proxy” and be received no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on April 21, 2020.
