### WHAT WE DO
NSA is a self-administered, self-managed real estate investment trust focused on the ownership, operation, and acquisition of self storage properties predominantly located within the top 100 metropolitan statistical areas throughout the United States. We support our customers' needs by providing access to an efficient storage experience combined with the strengths of multi-market scale and professional management. We are fortunate to operate in one of the highest performing REIT property types that has a track record of resilience and the protections provided by diversity of geography.

We know we are not the only providers of self storage and its related services. We therefore think carefully about how we do what we do so we can provide our services profitably and consistent with our core values: compassion, humility, accountability and integrity. Here are a few highlights.

• We have good governance practices.

– We have opted out of the Maryland unsolicited takeover and control share acquisition statutes.

– We have annual trustee elections, majority voting, equal voting rights for all common shareholders, and separate Board chairperson and CEO positions.

– Our Board is notable for the breadth and depth of its industry experience.

• We value and expect legal, ethical
