    VOLUNTARY ANNOUNCEMENT – NUVEEN JOINT VENTURE AND EASISTORE ACQUISITION (UK)



1. INTRODUCTION

   The board of directors of Stor-Age is pleased to announce that it has entered into a joint venture (“JV”) with
   Nuveen Real Estate (“Nuveen”) and that the JV has acquired the four property Easistore portfolio (“Easistore”
   or “the portfolio”) in the UK (the “Acquisition”).

   Nuveen will acquire 90% and Stor-Age a 10% equity interest in the JV respectively, with the properties to be
   branded and managed by Storage King under its third-party management platform – Management 1st.

   Stor-Age’s equity contribution in the Acquisition is £4.4 million (including transaction and rebrand costs), with
   an estimated forecast pre-tax yield on investment of 15%.

2. RATIONALE FOR THE ACQUISITION AND ENTERING INTO THE JV

   The JV provides an opportunity for Stor-Age to partner with one of the largest, most established global
   investment managers. Nuveen has USD154 billion of assets under management, with an 85-year investment
   track record, for which the Acquisition forms part of their European Value Add strategy.

   The JV allows Stor-Age to grow and achieve further scale in the UK whilst providing an attractive return on
   invested capital. It also continues to leverage the third-party management platform, through generating both
   acquisition and ongoing property management fees.

   The initial objective of the JV is to implement the portfolio rebrand and management platform overlay, with a
   view to expanding Nuveen’s exposure to self storage assets across the UK over the medium-term.

   The acquisition of four prominent freehold UK properties and entering into the JV with Nuveen, is in line with
   the stated ‘capital light’ growth and investment strategy of the Storage King business of pursuing value-added
   acquisitions in the UK.

   The Acquisition represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a high-quality self storage property portfolio in
   locations which complement the existing Storage King portfolio, providing additional scale to the platform from
   both a financial and trading perspective.

   With a gross lettable area (“GLA”) of 242 195 sqf (22 500m²), the portfolio consists of predominantly modern,
   bespoke, purpose-built properties located in Crawley, Edenbridge, Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells.

   Well-located and with excellent visibility and prominence, the four mature properties trade into dense
   residential and commercial areas.

   Stor-Age holds a right of first refusal should Nuveen wish to exit any of the properties or the portfolio at a point
   in time in the future.

   Stor-Age CEO Gavin Lucas commented:
   “We’ve built a strong foundation in the UK under the banner of our Storage King brand, which is enabling us
   to pursue significant growth on all fronts in a nimble manner. Our JV with Nuveen and the acquisition of
   Easistore demonstrates the strength, competitiveness and sophistication of our platform.

   The Easistore acquisition represents the third, four-store portfolio that Stor-Age has either acquired or part-
   acquired in the UK in the last 15 months. The current 35 properties either owned or managed and trading
   under the Storage King brand are scheduled to increase to 39 properties by the end of the year, as current
   development projects come on stream. Across both markets, new developments and major expansions are
   currently underway across 11 properties (SA 5: UK 6), which are scheduled to bring on line an additional
   estimated 55 000m² of space in FY24.

   Storage King remains well-positioned to continue taking advantage of the fantastic growth opportunity in the
   UK self storage market.”

3. PORTFOLIO OVERVIEW

   Tunbridge Wells and Maidstone properties providing Storage King with a greater presence in Kent, while the
