Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

In connection with the announcement of the termination of its formal strategic alternatives review process, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of CAI International, Inc. (the "Company") determined and committed to a plan to fully exit the Company's rail and logistics businesses by sale, transfer or shut-down, and the Company will focus solely on the container leasing business. The Company may incur sale, transfer, or shut-down charges related to the exit of the rail and logistics businesses, including potential non-cash impairment charges, employee-related costs, legal and deal structuring expenses, and other cash and non-cash charges. Although the Company cannot provide a reasonable estimate at this time of the amount of these charges or the required cash expenditures, or the net proceeds from any sale, these non-cash charges, cash expenditures, and net proceeds could be significant.
