CERTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT MANAGEMENT

Board of Directors

General

We operate under the direction of our board of directors, the members of which are accountable to us and our stockholders as fiduciaries. Our board of directors is responsible for the management and control of our affairs. Our board of directors consists of H. Michael Schwartz, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of our board of directors, and two independent directors, Dean I. Ader and Alexander S. Vellandi, each of whom have been nominated by our board of directors forre-election to serve until our 20192020 annual meeting of stockholders or until his successor is elected and qualified. For more detailed information on our directors, see the “Executive Officers and Directors” section below. Our board of directors has formed the following three committees: the Audit Committee; the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee; and the Compensation Committee.

Leadership Structure

H. Michael Schwartz serves as the Chairman of our board of directors, as well as our Chief Executive Officer. Our board of directors periodically monitors the potential benefits and consequences of splitting the roles of Chairman and principal executive officer, but has determined that, at this time, it is appropriate and in our best interest for such roles to remain vested in one person due to our current size, the size of our board of directors, and the participation of our two independent directors in the oversight of our operations and strategy. Our board of directors does not have a lead independent director, as we believe that the current size of our board of directors permits both of our independent directors to actively participate in this oversight role. As we grow in size, our board of directors will continue to evaluate the appropriateness of splitting the roles of Chairman and principal executive officer and creating a lead independent director position.

Meetings of our Board of Directors

During 2017,2018, our board of directors held fivenine meetings. Messrs. Schwartz and AderEach of the directors attended all five meetings. Mr. Vellandi was elected to our boardat least 75% of directors in June 2017 and attended the two boardmeetings of directors meetings since his election. Prior to June 2017, Stephen G. Muzzy was an independent member of ourthe board of directors and attended the three meetings held by our board of directors prior to his resignation and Mr. Vellandi’s election.committees on which he served.

Director Independence

While our shares are not listed for trading on any national securities exchange, as required by our charter, a majority of the members of our board of directors and each committee of our board of directors are “independent” as determined by our board of directors by applying the definition of “independent” adopted by the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), consistent with the North American Securities Administrators Association’s Statement of Policy Regarding Real Estate Investment Trusts and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. Our board of directors has determined that Messrs. Ader and Vellandi both meet the relevant definition of “independent.”

Stockholder Communications with Directors

We have established several means for stockholders to communicate concerns to our board of directors. If the concern relates to our financial statements, accounting practices or internal controls, the

5

concerns should be submitted in writing to the Chairman of the Audit Committee of our board of directors in care of our Secretary at our headquarters address. If the concern relates to our governance practices, business ethics or corporate conduct, the concern should be submitted in writing to the Chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our board of directors in care of our Secretary at our headquarters address. If a stockholder is uncertain as to which category his or her concern relates, he or she may communicate it to any one of the independent directors in care of our Secretary. All concerns submitted in care of our Secretary will be delivered to the appropriate independent director based upon our Secretary’s determination.

5

Though we have no formal policy on the matter, we encourage all of the members of our board of directors to attend our annual meeting of stockholders.

Risk Management Role

As part of its oversight role, our board of directors actively supervises the members of our management that are directly responsible for ourday-to-day risk management, including our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. The board’s risk management role has no impact on its leadership structure. The Audit Committee of our board of directors, which consists of our two independent directors, annually reviews with management our policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, particularly in the areas of insurance, regulatory compliance, financial risk management, investments and due diligence, and capital flow.

Code of Ethics

Our board of directors adopted aan amended Code of Ethics and Business Conduct on March 6, 2017June 12, 2018 (the “Code of Ethics”), which contains general guidelines applicable to our executive officers, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, our directors and employees and officers of our advisor,Advisor, Strategic Storage Advisor IV, LLC (“Advisor”), and its affiliates who perform material functions for us. We adopted our Code of Ethics with the purpose of promoting the following: (1) honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;(2) full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with or submit to the SEC and in other public communications made by us; (3) compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations; (4) the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code of Ethics to our Code of Ethics Compliance Officer; and (5) accountability for adherence to the Code of Ethics. A copy of the Code of Ethics is available in the “Governance Documents” section of our website located atwww.strategicreit.com/site/sst4/about-sst4/governance-documentspage/information#gov.

Audit Committee

General

Our board of directors adopted aan amended charter for the Audit Committee on January 9, 2017June 12, 2018 (the “Audit Committee Charter”). A copy of our Audit Committee Charter is available in the “Governance Documents” section of our website located atwww.strategicreit.com/site/sst4/about-sst4/governance-documentspage/information#gov. The Audit Committee assists our board of directors by: (1) selecting an independent registered public accounting firm to audit our annual financial statements; (2) reviewing with the independent registered public accounting firm the plans and results of the audit engagement; (3) approving the audit andnon-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm; (4) reviewing the independence of the independent registered public accounting firm; and (5) considering the range of audit andnon-audit fees and reviewing the adequacy of our internal accounting controls.

The members of the Audit Committee are our two independent directors, Dean I. Ader and Alexander S. Vellandi, with Mr. Vellandi currently serving as Chairman of the Audit Committee. We do not have an “audit committee financial expert,” as such term is defined by SEC rules; however, our board of directors believes that each member of the Audit Committee has sufficient knowledge in financial and auditing matters to serve on the Audit Committee and Mr. Vellandi has sufficient knowledge to serve as the Chairman of the Audit Committee due to his more than 1819 years of experience in commercial real estate and finance. The Audit Committee held five meetings during 2017. Mr. Ader attended all five meetings. Mr. Vellandi was appointed to the Audit Committee in June 2017 and attended the two Audit Committee meetings held after his appointment. Prior to June 2017, Stephen G.

Relationship with Principal Auditor

Overview

On the recommendation of the Audit Committee, our board of directors has appointed BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”) as our independent registered public accounting firm (“independent auditor”) for the year ending December 31, 2018.2019. Although stockholder ratification of the appointment of our independent auditor is not required by our bylaws or otherwise, we are submitting the selection of BDO to our stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate governance practice. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee reserves the right to select a new independent auditor at any time in the future in its discretion if it deems such decision to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Any such decision would be disclosed to our stockholders in accordance with applicable securities laws. If our stockholders do not ratify the Audit Committee’s selection, the Audit Committee will take that fact into consideration, together with such other factors it deems relevant, in determining its next selection of our independent registered public accounting firm.

Representatives of BDO are expected to be present at the annual meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire. The representatives will also be available to respond to appropriate questions from our stockholders.

Change in Principal Auditor

CohnReznick LLP (“CohnReznick”), an independent registered public accounting firm, audited our consolidated balance sheet as of June 17, 2016.

On January 9, 2017, with the approval of our Audit Committee, we dismissed CohnReznick as our independent registered public accounting firm. CohnReznick’s audit report on our consolidated balance sheet as of June 17, 2016 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During our existence, there were no (a) disagreements between us and CohnReznick on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of CohnReznick, would have caused CohnReznick to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in its report on our consolidated financial statements, or (b) “reportable events” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of RegulationS-K under the Exchange Act.

7

On January 26, 2017, with the approval of our Audit Committee, we engaged BDO as our new independent registered public accounting firm for the purpose of auditing our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for the period June 1, 2016 (inception) through December 31, 2016. Prior to the engagement of BDO, neither we nor anyone acting on our behalf consulted BDO regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2) ofRegulationS-K.

For the fiscal yearyears ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, BDO served as our independent registered public accounting firm and provided us certain other services.

Pre-Approval Policies

The Audit Committee Charter imposes a duty on the Audit Committee topre-approve all auditing services performed for the Company by our independent auditor, as well as all permittednon-audit services (including the fees and terms thereof) in order to ensure that the provision of such services does not impair the auditor’s independence. In determining whether or not topre-approve services, the Audit Committee considers whether the service is permissible under applicable SEC rules. The Audit Committee may, in its discretion, delegate one or more of its members the authority topre-approve any services to be performed by our independent auditor, provided suchpre-approval is presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

All services rendered by BDO for the yearyears ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 werepre-approved in accordance with the policies set forth above.

Fees to Principal Auditor

The Audit Committee reviewed the audit andnon-audit services performed by BDO, as well as the fees charged by BDO for such services. The aggregate fees for professional accounting services provided by BDO, including the audit of our annual financial statements, for the yearyears ended December 31, 2017 and the period from June 1, 2016 (date of inception) through December 31, 2016 are set forth in the table below. In addition, the fees incurred by CohnReznick for its services prior to its termination2018 are set forth in the table below.

For purposes of the preceding table, the professional fees are classified as follows:

Committee. Accordingly, the Audit Committee’s role does not provide any special assurances with regard to the financial statements of the Company, nor does it involve a professional evaluation of the quality of the audits performed by the independent auditors.

In this context, in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 20172018 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form10-K with management, including a discussion of the quality and acceptability of the financial reporting and controls of the Company, the reasonableness of significant judgments and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements.

The Audit Committee discussed with the Company’s independent auditors, who are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, their judgments as to the quality and acceptability of the financial reporting and such other matters as are required to be discussed with the Audit Committee under PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 1031,1301, “Communications with Audit Committees”.Committees.” The Audit Committee also received the written disclosures and the letter from the Company’s independent auditor required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent auditor’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with the independent auditor the independent auditor’s independence.

The Audit Committee discussed with the independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their audit. The Audit Committee meets periodically with the independent auditors, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations and the overall quality of the financial reporting of the Company.

In reliance on these reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to our board of directors that the audited financial statements of the Company be included in its Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended December 31, 20172018 for filing with the SEC. Our board of directors subsequently accepted the Audit Committee’s recommendation and approved the Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended December 31, 20172018 for filing with the SEC.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

General

Our board of directors ratified the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s adoption of its charter on March 6, 2017 (the “Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter”). A copy of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter is available in the “Governance Documents” section of our website located atwww.strategicreit.com/site/sst4/about-sst4/governance-documentspage/information#gov. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s primary focus is to assist our board of directors in fulfilling its responsibilities with respect to director nominations, corporate governance, board of directors and committee evaluations and conflict resolutions. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee assists our board of directors in this regard by: (1) identifying individuals qualified to serve on our board of directors, consistent with criteria approved by our board of directors, and recommending that our board of directors select a slate of director nominees for

9

election by our stockholders at the annual meeting of our stockholders; (2) developing and implementing the process necessary to identify prospective members of our board of directors; (3) determining the advisability of retaining any search firm or consultant to assist in the identification and evaluation of candidates for membership on our board of directors; (4) overseeing an annual evaluation of our board of directors, each of the committees of our board of directors and management; (5) developing and recommending to our board of directors a set of corporate governance principles and policies; (6) periodically reviewing our corporate governance principles and policies and suggesting improvements thereto to our board of directors; and (7) considering and acting on any conflicts-related matter required by our charter or otherwise permitted by Maryland law where the exercise of independent judgment by any of our directors, who is not an independent director, could reasonably be compromised, including approval of any transaction involving our Advisor or its affiliates. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee fulfills these responsibilities primarily by carrying out the activities enumerated in the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter and in accordance with current laws, rules and regulations.

The members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are our two independent directors, Dean I. Ader and Alexander S. Vellandi, with Mr. Ader serving as Chairman of the Nominating

10

and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee held twothree meetings during 2017. Mr. Ader attended both meetings. Mr. Vellandi was appointed to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in June 2017 and there were not any Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meetings held after his appointment. Prior to June 2017, Stephen G. Muzzy was an independent member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and attended both meetings prior to his resignation and Mr. Vellandi’s election.2018.

Board of Directors Membership Criteria and Director Selection

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually reviews with our board of directors the appropriate experience, skills and characteristics required of our directors in the context of the current membership of our board of directors. This assessment includes, in the context of the perceived needs of our board of directors at the time, issues of knowledge, experience, judgment and skills such as an understanding of the real estate industry or brokerage industry or accounting or financial management expertise. Other considerations include the candidate’s independence from conflict with the Company and the ability of the candidate to attend board of directors meetings regularly and to devote an appropriate amount of effort in preparation for those meetings. It also is expected that independent directors nominated by our board of directors are individuals who possess a reputation and hold or have held positions or affiliations befitting a director of a publicly held company and are or have been actively engaged in their occupations or professions or are otherwise regularly involved in the business, professional or academic community.

Though we do not have a formal policy regarding diversity with respect to identifying nominees and overall board composition, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers the impact of diverse backgrounds and experiences of potential nominees on the effectiveness and quality of our board of directors. As part of its annual review process discussed below, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews its own effectiveness in recommending director nominees with diverse backgrounds and experiences relative to any perceived needs in the composition of our board of directors.

While our full board of directors remains responsible for selecting its own nominees and recommending them for election by our stockholders, our board of directors has delegated the screening process necessary to identify qualified candidates to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Pursuant to our charter, however, the directors must nominate replacements for any vacancies among the director positions.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually reviews director suitability and the continuing composition of our board of directors; it then recommends director nominees who are voted on by our full board of directors. In recommending director nominees to our board of directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee solicits candidate recommendations from its own members, other directors and management of the Company. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will also consider suggestions made by stockholders and other interested persons for director nominees who meet the established director criteria. In order for a stockholder to make a nomination, the stockholder must satisfy the procedural

10

requirements for such nomination as provided in the Company’s bylaws, which include, among other things, providing the nominee’s name, age, address, and ownership of the Company’s stock. Such nominations must also be accompanied by the written consent of the proposed nominee to be named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected.

In evaluating the persons nominated as potential directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider each candidate without regard to the source of the recommendation and take into account those factors that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines are relevant.

11

With respect to the current nominees to our board of directors, whose backgrounds and experience are described in greater detail on pages16-20, 16-18, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considered all of the factors set forth above in its determination to recommend them for nomination. In particular, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considered H. Michael Schwartz’s active participation in the management of our operations and his experience in the self storage industry, Dean I. Ader’s extensive experience in the financial services industry, including his many years of experience in public accounting as a certified public accountant (now retired) and Alexander S. Vellandi’s more than 1819 years of experience in commercial real estate and finance in determining to recommend each of them for nomination to our board of directors. In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considered these particular aspects of the backgrounds of Messrs. Ader and Vellandi relative to the needs of the committees of our board of directors in determining to recommend them for nomination.

Corporate Governance

Pursuant to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee developed and recommended a set of formal, written guidelines for corporate governance, which were adopted by our full board of directors.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also, from time to time, reviews the governance structures and procedures of the Company and suggests improvements thereto to our full board of directors. Such improvements, if adopted by the full board of directors, will be incorporated into the written guidelines.

Periodic Evaluations

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee conducts an annual evaluation of its own performance and oversees the annual evaluations of our directors, each of the other committees of our board of directors and management.

Conflicts of Interest

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers and acts upon any conflicts of interest-related matter required by our charter or otherwise permitted by Maryland law where the exercise of independent judgment by any of our directors, who is not an independent director, could reasonably be compromised, including approval of any transaction involving our Advisor or its affiliates. Our independent directors must approve such transactions as fair and reasonable to us and on terms and conditions not less favorable than those available from unaffiliated third parties, based upon standards set forth in our charter and Code of Ethics, as well as applicable laws, rules and regulations.

Conflicts of interest-related matters that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has acted upon or expects to act upon include, but are not limited to, the following:

Compensation Committee

General

We established a Compensation Committee on March 7, 2018. The members of our Compensation Committee are Messrs. Ader and Vellandi, with Mr. Ader serving as Chairman of the Compensation Committee. The primary focus of the Compensation Committee is to assist our board of directors in fulfilling its responsibilities with respect to director compensation. Prior to the establishment of the Compensation Committee, our board of directors fulfilled all of the responsibilities with respect to director compensation. The Compensation Committee assists our board of directors in this regard when necessary by: (1) reviewing and approving our corporate goals with respect to compensation of directors; (2) recommending to our board of directors compensation for allnon-employee directors, including board of directors and committee retainers, meeting fees and equity-based compensation; (3) administering and granting equity-based compensation to our Advisor, employees of our Advisor and affiliates based upon recommendations from our Advisor; and (4) setting the terms and conditions of such equity-based compensation in accordance with our Employee and Director Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Compensation Committee fulfills these responsibilities in accordance with current laws, rules and regulations. The Compensation Committee has concluded that, because the Compensation Committee will only need to address issues related to director compensation while we are an externally advised REIT, a charter is not necessary at the present time. The Compensation Committee will periodically review the need for a charter and, if adopted, will disclose a copy of such charter to our stockholders pursuant to applicable SEC rules.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

For the year endingended December 31, 2017,2018, decisions regarding director compensation were made by our board of directors, including H. Michael Schwartz, our current Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

None of our executive officers has served on the board of directors or compensation committee of any other entity that has or has had one or more executive officers who served as a member of our board of directors or our Compensation Committee during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.

As a result, we do not have, and the Compensation Committee has not considered, a compensation policy or program for our executive officers. If we determine to compensate our executive officers directly in the future, the Compensation Committee will review all forms of compensation to our executive officers and approve all equity-based awards to our executive officers.

Our executive officers also are officers of our Advisor and its affiliates, and are compensated by such entities for their services to us. We pay these entities fees and reimburse expenses pursuant to our Advisory Agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2017,2018, these reimbursements to our Advisor include reimbursements of a portion of the salaries of our Named Executive Officers for time they spent on matters connected to our public offering (the “Offering”) totaling approximately $112,000.$141,000.

Director Compensation for the Year Ended December 31, 20172018

Summary

The following table provides a summary of the compensation earned by or paid to our directors for the year ended December 31, 2017:2018:

As noted above, the Compensation Committee assists our board of directors in fulfilling its responsibilities with respect to employee, officer and director compensation.

Employee and Director Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards

AsPursuant to the Plan, we issued 1,000 shares of restricted stock to each independent director, which vest ratably over a period of four years from the date such initial award was awarded to the independent directors (the “Initial Restricted Stock Awards”). We also issued additional awards of 500 shares of restricted stock to each independent director upon each of theirre-elections to our board of directors, which vest ratably over a period of

14

four years from the date ofre-election (the “Annual Restricted Stock Awards”). Messrs. Ader and Vellandi have each received a total of 1,500 shares of restricted stock, none of which have vested as of December 31, 2017, we had not issued any awards pursuant2018. Both the Initial Restricted Stock Awards and the Annual Restricted Stock Awards are subject to the Plan.a number of other conditions set forth in such awards.

The Plan was approved and adopted prior to the commencement of the Offering in order to (1) provide incentives to individuals who are granted awards because of their ability to improve our operations and increase profits; (2) encourage selected persons to accept or continue employment with us or with our Advisor or its affiliates that we deem important to our long-term success; and (3) increase the interest of our independent directors in our success through their participation in the growth in value of our stock. Pursuant to the Plan, we may issue options, stock appreciation rights, distribution equivalent rights and other equity-based awards, including, but not limited to, restricted stock.

The total number of shares of our Class A common stock reserved for issuance under the plan is equal to 10% of our outstanding shares of Class A, Class T and Class W common stock at any time, but not to exceed 10,000,000 shares in the aggregate. As of December 31, 2017,2018, there were approximately 179,045485,725 shares available for issuance under the Plan. The term of the Plan is 10 years. Upon our earlier dissolution or liquidation, reorganization, merger or consolidation with one or more corporations as a result of which we are not the surviving corporation, or sale of all or substantially all of our properties, the Plan will terminate, and provisions will be made for the assumption by the successor corporation of the awards granted under the Plan or the replacement of such awards with similar awards with respect to the stock of the successor corporation, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and exercise prices. Alternatively, rather than providing for the assumption of such awards, the board of directors may either (1) shorten the period during which awards are exercisable, or (2) cancel an award upon payment to the participant of an amount in cash that the Compensation Committee determines is equivalent to the fair market value of the consideration that the participant would have received if the participant exercised the award immediately prior to the effective time of the transaction.

In the event our board of directors or Compensation Committee determines that any distribution, recapitalization, stock split, reorganization, merger, liquidation, dissolution or sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets, or other similar corporate transaction or event, affects our stock such that an adjustment is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to an award, then the board of directors or Compensation Committee shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust the number and kind of shares or the exercise price with respect to any award.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, we reimbursed our Sponsor for the total premiums paid on such life insurance policies, which was $1,865.

Our Property Manager manages our self storage properties pursuant to separate property management agreements for each property. Our Property Manager, in turn, had entered into asub-property management agreement with Extra Space, which providedon-site management of

Pursuant to our first property.

Under the property management agreement in effect from April 11, 2017 through September 30, 2017, our Property Manager received a monthly management fee of $2,500 or 6% of the gross revenues, whichever was greater, plus reimbursement of our Property Manager’s costs of managing the property. Extra Space agreed to pay up to $25,000 for the property managed toward the signage andset-up costs associated with converting the property to the Extra Space brand (the“Set-Up Amount”). The property management agreement had a three year term and automatically renewed for successive one year periods thereafter, unless we or our Property Manager provided prior written notice at least 90 days prior to the expiration of the term. In general, if we terminated the property management agreement without cause at any time during its initial three year term, we would have been obligated to pay our Property Manager a termination fee equal to theSet-Up Amount, reduced by 1/36th of theSet-Up Amount for every full month of the term that had elapsed.

Under thesub-property management agreement, our Property Manager paid Extra Space a monthly management fee equal to the greater of $2,500 or 6% of the gross revenues, plus reimbursement of Extra Space’s costs of managing the property; provided, however that no management fee was due and payable to Extra Space for the months of January and July each year during the term. Extra Space had the exclusive right to offer tenant insurance to the tenants and was entitled to virtually all of the benefits of such tenant insurance. Thesub-property management agreement also had a three year term that automatically renewed for successive one year periods thereafter, unless our Property Manager or Extra Space provided prior written notice at least 90 days prior to the expiration of the term. In general, if our Property Manager terminated thesub-property management agreement without cause at any time during its initial three year term, it would have been required to pay Extra Space a termination fee equal to theSet-Up Amount, reduced by 1/36th of theSet-Up Amount for every full month of the term that had elapsed.

As of October 1, 2017, our Property Manager terminated thesub-property management agreement with Extra Space, and we amended our corresponding property management agreement as described below. Our property-owning subsidiary agreed to pay the termination fee owed by our Property Manager in accordance with its termination of thesub-property management agreement. The aggregate costs incurred in connection with the property management change was approximately $4,000.

In connection with the termination of thesub-property management agreement, the corresponding property management agreement was amended effective as of October 1, 2017. Pursuant to the amended property management agreement,agreements, our Property Manager receives: (i) a monthly management fee for the property equal to the greater of $3,000 or 6% of the gross revenues from the property plus reimbursement of the Property Manager’s costs of managing the property and (ii) a construction management fee equal to 5% of the cost of construction or capital improvement work in excess of $10,000. In addition, our Property Manager or its affiliate has the exclusive right to offer tenant insurance to the tenants and is entitled to substantially all of the benefits of such tenant insurance. See “—Tenant Insurance Joint Venture,” below. The property management agreement has a three year term and automatically renews for successive three year periods thereafter, unless we or our Property Manager provide prior written notice at least 90 days prior to the expiration of the term. After the end of the initial three year term, either party may terminate the property management agreement generally upon 60 days prior written notice. With respect to each new property we acquire for which we enter into a property management agreement with our Property Manager, such property management agreement will have substantially the same terms as described above. In addition, we will also pay our Property Manager aone-timestart-up fee in the amount of $3,750.

Dealer Manager Agreement

Our Sponsor indirectly owns a 15% beneficialnon-voting equity interest in Select Capital Corporation, our Dealer Manager.

Our Dealer Manager serves as our Dealer Manager pursuant to our Dealer Manager Agreement. The Dealer Manager Agreement terminates upon the termination of our Offering or upon 60 days’ written notice by either party. Our Dealer Manager provides wholesaling, sales promotional and marketing services to us in connection with our Offering. Specifically, our Dealer Manager ensures compliance with SEC rules and regulations and FINRA rules relating to the sale process and participatingbroker-dealer relationships, assists in the assembling of prospectus kits, assists in the due diligence process and ensures proper handling of investment proceeds.

Our Dealer Manager is entitled to a sales commission of 6.0% of gross proceeds from sales of Class A shares and 3.0% of gross proceeds from the sales of Class T shares in the Primary Offering and a dealer manager fee of 3.0% of gross proceeds from sales of Class A shares and Class T shares in the Primary Offering. In addition, our Dealer Manager receives an ongoing stockholder servicing fee that is payable monthly and accrues daily in an amount equal to 1/365th of 1% of the purchase price per share of Class T shares sold in the Primary Offering portion of the Offering and a monthly dealer manager servicing fee that accrues daily in an amount equal to 1/365^th of 0.50% of the purchase price of Class W shares sold in the Primary Offering. Our Dealer Manager entered into participating dealer agreements with certain other broker-dealers authorizing them to sell our shares. Upon sale of our shares by such broker-dealers, our Dealer Managerre-allows all of the sales commissions paid in connection with sales made by these broker-dealers. Our Dealer Manager may alsore-allow to these broker-dealers a portion of the 3% dealer manager fee as marketing fees, reimbursement of certain costs and expenses of attending training and education meetings sponsored by our Dealer Manager, payment of attendance fees required for employees of our Dealer Manager or other affiliates to attend retail seminars and public seminars sponsored by these broker-dealers, or to defray other distribution-related expenses. Our Dealer Manager generallyre-allows 100% of the stockholder servicing fee to participating broker-dealers, provided, however, that our Dealer Manager does notre-allow the stockholder servicing fee to any registered representative of a participating broker-dealer if such registered representative ceases to serve as the representative for an investor in our Offering.

In accordance with FINRA rules, in no event will our total underwriting compensation, including, but not limited to, sales commissions, stockholder servicing fees, the dealer manager fee and expense

reimbursements to our Dealer Manager and participating broker-dealers, exceed 10% of our gross offering proceeds, in the aggregate. We expect to pay an additional amount of gross offering proceeds for bona fide accountable due diligence expenses; however, to the extent these due diligence expenses cannot be justified, any excess over actual due diligence expenses will be considered underwriting compensation subject to the above 10% limitation and, when aggregated with all othernon-accountable expenses, may not exceed 3% of gross offering proceeds. We may also reimburse our Advisor for all expenses incurred by our Advisor and its affiliates in connection with the Offering and our organization, but in no event will such amounts exceed (i) 3.5% of the gross offering proceeds raised by us in the terminated or completed Offering (excluding sales commissions and dealer manager fees), or (ii) 15% of the gross offering proceeds raised by us in the terminated or completed Offering (including sales commissions and dealer manager fees). If the organization and offering expenses exceed such limits, within 60 days after the end of the month in which the offering terminates or is completed, our Advisor must reimburse us for any excess amounts. FINRA and many states also limit our total organization and offering expenses to 15% of gross offering proceeds.

Extra Space Self StorageTransfer Agent Agreement

In connection withOur Sponsor is the mergermanager and sole member of SmartStop Self Storage into Extra Space, certainStrategic Transfer Agent Services, LLC, our Transfer Agent. Pursuant to our Transfer Agent Agreement, which was approved by a majority of our executive officers, including H. Michael Schwartz, Paula Mathews, Michael McClureindependent directors, our Transfer Agent provides transfer agent and James Berg, received unitsregistrar services to us. These services are substantially similar to what a third party transfer agent would provide in the ordinary course of limited partnership interest in Extra Space Storage LP, the operating partnership for Extra Space, in exchange for units of limited partnership of SmartStop Self Storage Operating Partnership, L.P., the operating partnership for SmartStop Self Storage, owned by such executives. Accordingly, these executives could have faced conflicts of interest when making decisions relating to transactions involving Extra Space,performing its functions as a transfer agent, including, but not limited to: processing subscription agreements, providing customer service to our stockholders, processing payment of any sales commission and dealer manager fees associated with a particular purchase, processing the distributions and any servicing fees with respect to our shares and issuing regular reports to our stockholders. Our Transfer Agent may retain and supervise third party vendors in its efforts to administer certain services. Our Transfer Agent conducts transfer agent and registrar services for othernon-traded REITs sponsored by our Sponsor.

The initial term of the Transfer Agent Agreement is three years, which term will be automatically renewed for one year successive terms, but either party may terminate the Transfer Agent Agreement upon 90 days’ prior written notice. In the event that we terminate the Transfer Agent Agreement, other than for cause, we will pay our Transfer Agent all amounts that would have otherwise accrued during the remaining term of the Transfer Agent Agreement; provided, however, that when calculating the remaining months in the term for such purposes, such term is deemed to be a 12 month period starting from the date of the most recent annual anniversary date.

We paid our Transfer Agent aone-time setup fee and pay our Transfer Agent the following fees: (i) a fixed fee of $8,000 per quarter, (ii) aone-time account setup fee of $30 per account and (iii) a monthly fee of $3.10 per open account per month. In addition, we will reimburse our Transfer Agent for all reasonable expenses or other changes incurred by it in connection with the provision of its services to us, and we will pay our Transfer Agent fees for any additional services we may request from time to time, in accordance with its rates then in effect. Upon the request of our Transfer Agent, we may also advance payment for substantial reasonableout-of-pocket expenditures to be incurred by it.

Tenant Insurance Joint Venture

We offer tenant insurance whereby tenants of our self storage facilities can purchase insurance to cover damage or destruction to their property while stored at our facilities. An affiliate of our Property Manager is entitled to substantially all of the net revenue attributable to thesub-property sale of tenant insurance at our properties. Our Property Manager transferred its rights in such tenant insurance revenue to a joint venture, Strategic Storage TI Services IV JV, LLC (the “TI Joint Venture”), a Delaware limited liability company owned 0.1% by Strategic Storage TRS IV, Inc., our subsidiary (“TRS”), and 99.9% by SmartStop TI IV, LLC (“SS TI IV”), a subsidiary of our Sponsor.

of the net revenues generated from such tenant insurance and SS TI IV receives the other 99.9% of such net revenues. The TI Joint Venture further provides, among other things, that if a member or its affiliate terminates all or substantially all of the property management agreements entered into with Extra Space foror defaults in its material obligations under the managementTI Joint Venture agreement or undergoes a change of our properties locatedcontrol (the “Triggering Member”), the other member generally shall have the right (but not the obligation) to either (i) sell all of its interest in the United States.TI Joint Venture to the Triggering Member at fair market value (as agreed upon or as determined under an appraisal process) or (ii) purchase all of the Triggering Member’s interest in the TI Joint Venture at 95% of fair market value.
