By Andrea Heisinger

New York, Feb. 2 - GATX Corp. sold $250 million of 4.75% five-year senior unsecured notes on Tuesday to yield 255 basis points over Treasuries, a market source away from the deal said.

The notes (Baa1/BBB+/) priced at 99.208 to yield 4.917%.

The notes have a make-whole call at Treasuries plus 40 bps and feature a change-of-control put of 101%.

Bank of America Merrill Lynch and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. ran the books.

Co-managers were Bank of New York Mellon Capital Markets, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Mizuho Securities USA Inc., Williams Capital Group LP and U.S. Bancorp Investments.

Proceeds will be used to repay commercial paper, to repay $230 million of 5.125% senior notes due on April 15, to redeem or settle on the conversion of some or all of $42 million in 5% senior convertibles due in 2023 that were called for redemption on Jan. 29, and for general corporate purposes.

The rail and transportation company is based in Chicago.
