AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO TENDER OFFER
This Amendment No. 1 to Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO relates to the offer (the “Offer”) by: MacKenzie Realty Capital, Inc. (collectively the “Purchasers”) to purchase up to 333,400 shares of common stock (the “Shares”) in SmartStop Self Storage, Inc. (the “Corporation”), the subject company, at a purchase price equal to $9.00 per Share, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”) dated April 14, 2015 (the “Offer Date”) and the related Assignment Form.
This Offer is hereby amended to reduce the number of Shares the Purchasers are offering to purchase from 1,000,000 to 333,400. The 333,400 Shares subject to the Offer constitute 0.58% of the outstanding Shares. Consummation of the Offer, if all Shares sought are tendered, would require payment by the Purchasers of up to $3,000,600 in aggregate purchase price, which the Purchasers intend to fund out of their current working capital. The Purchasers are reducing the number of Shares they are offering to purchase because, based upon the response by Shareholders in other recent Landmark tender offers made by affiliates of the Purchasers and in this Offer thus far, the Purchasers believe that it is highly unlikely that more than 333,400 Shares will be tendered. As of the date hereof, no Shares have been tendered. The Purchasers have reduced the number offered to 333,400 based upon their experience that it is highly improbable that more than 333,400 Shares would be tendered, so pro rating should not be an issue, based upon our experience, and the Purchasers do not wish to continue to commit more funds that necessary for the purchase of Shares.
