(the "Partnership"), a limited partnership in which the Company is the sole general partner and owns approximately a 91% interest as of the date of this report. The Acquired Facilities contain approximately 544,253 square feet, are located in 6 states and were purchased for approximately $37,625,500 in aggregate consideration. The acquisition of the Acquired Facilities was funded by cash generated from operations, the issuance of units of limited partnership interest in the Partnership, the assumption of certain mortgages payable and borrowings under the Company's lines of credit with The First National Bank of Chicago and First Tennessee Bank. Each of the Acquired Facilities was used by the seller as a self-storage facility prior to its acquisition by the Company, and the Company intends to continue such use of all the Acquired Facilities. The Company's management determined the contract price of each facility through arms-length negotiations, after taking into consideration such factors as: the age and condition of the facility; the projected amount of maintenance costs; anticipated capital improvements; the facility's current revenues; comparable facilities competing in the applicable market; market rental rates for comparable facilities; the occupancy rate of the facility; and the estimated amount of taxes, utility costs, personnel costs, and other anticipated expenses associated with the facility. Other than changes in those factors, the Company, after reasonable inquiry, is not aware of any material factors relating to the properties that would cause the historical financial information provided in item 7 not to be necessarily indicative of future operating results for the applicable facilities.

We have audited the accompanying Historical Summaries of Combined Gross Revenue and Direct Operating Expenses (the "Historical Summaries") for certain self-storage facilities (the "Acquired Facilities") described in Note 1 to the Historical Summaries for the year ended December 31, 1996. These Historical Summaries are the responsibility of the management of the Acquired Facilities. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these Historical Summaries based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Historical Summaries are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the Historical Summaries. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and the significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Historical Summaries. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. The accompanying Historical Summaries were prepared for the purposes of complying with the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (for inclusion in the Form 8-K/A of Storage USA, Inc.) as described in Note 1 to the Historical Summaries, and are not intended to be a complete presentation of the Acquired Facilities' revenues and expenses. In our opinion, based on our audits, the Historical Summaries referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the combined gross revenue and direct operating expenses described in Note 1 of the Acquired Facilities for the year ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
