NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
(Unaudited)

|1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION
|-- | ---------------------

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Sovran Acquisition Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Reclassifications:  Certain amounts from the 2003 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation relating to the discontinued operations (see Note 5).

|2. | ORGANIZATION
|-- | ------------

Sovran Acquisition Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership") is the entity through which Sovran Self Storage, Inc. (the "Company"), a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT"), conducts substantially all of its business and owns substantially all of its assets.  In 1995, the Company was formed under Maryland law and the Operating Partnership was organized as a Delaware limited partnership to continue and to expand the self-storage operations of the Company's privately owned predecessor organizations.  On June 26, 1995, the Company commenced operations, through the Operating Partnership, effective with the completion of its initial public offering of 5,890,000 shares. At June 30, 2004, the Operating Partnership owned and/or managed 270 self-storage properties under the "Uncle Bob's Self Storage" Registered trade name in 21 states.

As of June 30, 2004, the Company was a 96.77% economic owner of the Operating Partnership and controls it through Sovran Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company incorporated in Delaware and the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership (this structure is commonly referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT or "UPREIT").  The board of directors of Holdings, the members of which are also members of the Board of Directors of the Company, manages the affairs of the Operating Partnership by directing the affairs of Holdings.  The Company's limited partner and indirect general partner interests in the Operating Partnership entitle it to share in cash distributions from, and in the profits and losses of, the Operating Partnership in proportion to its ownership interest therein and entitle the Company to vote on all matters requiring a vote of the limited partners.

<PAGE>



The other limited partners of the Operating Partnership are persons who contributed their direct or indirect interests in certain self-storage properties to the Operating Partnership.  The Operating Partnership is obligated to redeem each unit of limited partnership ("Unit") at the request of the holder thereof for cash equal to the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock ("Common Shares") at the time of such redemption, provided that the Company at its option may elect to acquire any Unit presented for redemption for one Common Share or cash.  The Company presently anticipates that it will elect to issue Common Shares to acquire Units presented for redemption, rather than paying cash.  With each such redemption the Company's percentage ownership interest in the Operating Partnership will increase.  In addition, whenever the Company issues Common Shares, the Company is obligated to contribute any net proceeds therefrom to the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership is obligated to issue an equivalent number of Units to the Company.  Such limited partners' redemption rights are reflected in "limited partners' capital interest" in the accompanying balance sheets at the cash redemption amount at the balance sheet date.  Capital activity with regard to such limited partners' redemption rights is reflected in the accompanying statements of partners' capital.

|3. | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
|-- | ------------------------

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the Operating Partnership has elected to continue applying the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock-based compensation plans. Accordingly, the Operating Partnership does not recognize compensation expense for stock options when the stock option price at the grant date is equal to or greater than the fair market value of the stock on that date. The following illustrates the pro forma effect on net income and earnings per unit if the Operating Partnership had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 (in thousands, except for earnings per unit information):

|4. | INVESTMENT IN STORAGE FACILITIES
|-- | --------------------------------

The following summarizes activity in storage facilities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2004. This summary excludes the effect of storage facilities presented as discontinued operations (see Note 5).

(dollars in thousands)

|Cost:                                |           
|------------------------------------ | ----------
|Beginning balance                    | $  728,981
|Property acquisitions                | 51,362    
|Improvements and equipment additions | 7,692     
|Dispositions                         | (105)     
|Ending balance                       | $ 787,930 

|Accumulated Depreciation:   |            
|--------------------------- | -----------
|Beginning balance           | $    91,015
|Additions during the period | 9,223      
|Dispositions                | (65)       
|Ending balance              | $  100,173 

In the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Operating Partnership acquired eight storage facilities for $51.4 million.  Substantially all of the purchase price of these facilities was allocated to land and building and the operating results of the acquired facilities have been included in the Operating Partnership's operations since the acquisition dates.

|5. | DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
|-- | -----------------------

SFAS No.144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" addresses accounting for discontinued operations.  The Statement requires the segregation of all disposed components of an entity with operations that (i) can be distinguished from the rest of the entity and (ii) will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal transaction.

Based on the criteria of SFAS No. 144, four properties that have been sold by the Operating Partnership require presentation as discontinued operations as of June 30, 2004.  The amounts in the 2003 financial statements related to the operations and the net assets of these properties, have been reclassified and are presented as discontinued operations and net assets from discontinued operations, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Operating Partnership sold four non-strategic storage facilities located in Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and Ohio for net cash proceeds of $9.8 million resulting in a gain of $0.6 million.  The operations of these four facilities and the gain on sale are reported as discontinued operations.  The following is a summary of the amounts reported as discontinued operations:

|Total income from discontinued operations   | $     731                                  | $    332                                   



|6. | UNSECURED LINE OF CREDIT AND TERM NOTES
|-- | ---------------------------------------

The Operating Partnership has a $75 million (expandable to $100 million) revolving line of credit maturing September 2006 bearing interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.375%, a $100 million term note maturing September 2008 bearing interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.50%, a $80 million term note maturing September 2013 bearing interest at a fixed rate of 6.26%, and a $20 million term note maturing September 2013 bearing interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.50%.  The weighted average interest rate at June 30, 2004 on the Operating Partnership's line of credit before the effect of interest rate swaps was approximately 2.7%.  At June 30, 2004, there was $58 million available on the revolving line of credit excluding the amount available on the expansion feature.

The Operating Partnership has entered into three interest rate swap agreements, one in March 2001 for $50 million and two in September 2001 for $50 million and $30 million, to effectively convert a total of $130 million of variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt.  One of the $50 million interest rate swap agreements matures in November 2005, the other matures in October 2006, and the $30 million swap agreement matures in September 2008.

Based on current interest rates, the Operating Partnership estimates that payments under the interest rate swaps will be approximately $4.7 million in 2004.  Payments made under the interest rate swap agreements will be reclassified to interest expense as settlements occur.  The fair value of the swap agreements including accrued interest was a liability of $4.7 million at June 30, 2004.

The net carrying amount of the Operating Partnership's debt instruments approximates fair value.



|7. | MORTGAGES PAYABLE AND CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATIONS
|-- | -----------------------------------------------

In February 2002, the consolidated joint venture (Locke Sovran II, LLC) entered into a mortgage note of $48 million.  The note is secured by the 27 properties owned by the joint venture with a cost of $79 million.  The 10-year note bears interest at 7.19%.

<PAGE>

|8. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
|-- | -----------------------------

The Operating Partnership has entered into agreements to acquire two storage facilities for $15 million in the third quarter of 2004.  These acquisitions will be funded with borrowings under the revolving line of credit.

The Operating Partnership's current practice is to conduct environmental investigations in connection with property acquisitions. At this time, the Operating Partnership is not aware of any environmental contamination of any of its facilities that individually or in the aggregate would be material to the Operating Partnership's overall business, financial condition, or results of operations.

On August 2, 2004, the Operating Partnership redeemed the 9.85% Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock for $30 million.

|9. | COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
|-- | --------------------

Total comprehensive income consisting of net income and the change in the fair value of interest rate swap agreements was $19.3 million and $13.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

|10. | INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES
|--- | ----------------------------

Investment in joint ventures includes an ownership interest in Locke Sovran I, LLC, which operates 11 self storage facilities throughout the United States, and an ownership interest in Iskalo Office Holdings, LLC, which owns the building that houses the Operating Partnership's headquarters and other tenants.

In December 2000, the Operating Partnership contributed seven self-storage properties to Locke Sovran I, LLC with a fair market value of $19.8 million, in exchange for a $15 million one year note receivable bearing interest at LIBOR plus 1.75% that was repaid in 2001, and a 45% interest in Locke Sovran I, LLC.

The Operating Partnership also has a 49% ownership interest in Iskalo Office Holdings, LLC at June 30, 2004.  The majority of the $1.0 million investment relates to interest bearing loans made by the Operating Partnership to the joint venture less the Operating Partnership's share of losses to date.

A summary of the unconsolidated joint ventures' operating statements as for the six-months ended June 30, 2004 is as follows:

|11. | EARNINGS PER UNIT
|--- | -----------------

The Operating Partnership reports earnings per unit in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share."  In computing earnings per unit, the Operating Partnership deducts preferred stock distributions from net income to arrive at net income available to common unitholders.  The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common unit:

Potential common shares from the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their inclusion would have had an antidilutive effect on earnings per share.

|ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
|------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

When used in this discussion and elsewhere in this document, the words "intends," "believes," "expects," "anticipates," and similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933 and in Section 21F of the Securities Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Operating Partnership to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the effect of competition from new self-storage facilities, which would cause rents and occupancy rates to decline; the Operating Partnership's ability to evaluate, finance and integrate acquired businesses into the Operating Partnership's existing business and operations; the Operating Partnership's ability to form joint ventures and sell existing properties to those joint ventures and others; the Operating Partnership's ability to effectively compete in the industry in which it does business; the Operating Partnership's existing indebtedness may mature in an unfavorable credit environment, preventing refinancing or forcing refinancing of the indebtedness on terms that are not as favorable as the existing terms; interest rates may fluctuate, impacting costs associated with the Operating Partnership's outstanding floating rate debt; the Operating Partnership's ability to successfully extend its truck leasing program and Dri-Guard product roll-out; the Operating Partnership's reliance on its call center; the Operating Partnership's cash flow may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest; and tax law changes that may change the taxability of future income.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FOR THE PERIOD JANUARY 1, 2004 THROUGH JUNE 30, 2004, COMPARED TO THE PERIOD JANUARY 1, 2003 THROUGH JUNE 30, 2003

We recorded rental revenues of $57.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, an increase of $4.2 million or 7.9% when compared to rental revenues of $53.0 million during the same period in 2003.  Of this increase, $2.5 million resulted from a 4.9% increase in rental revenues at the 245 core properties considered in same store sales (those properties included in the consolidated results of operations since January 1, 2003).  The increase in same store rental revenues was achieved primarily through rate increases on select units and an increase in occupancy.  The remaining $1.7 million increase in rental revenues resulted from the acquisition of eight stores in 2004 and from having the 2003 acquisitions included for the entire period of operations in 2004.  Other income increased $0.4 million due to the additional revenue generated by truck rentals and increased insurance sales.

<PAGE>

Property operating and real estate tax expense increased $1.8 million or 9.6% in the first six months of 2004 compared to the same period in 2003.  Of this increase, $0.5 million was incurred by the facilities acquired in 2004 and from having the 2003 acquisitions included for the entire period of operations in 2004.  The remaining $1.3 million increase was due to increased personnel, truck expense, utilities, insurance and increased property taxes in 2004 at the 245 core properties considered same stores.

General and administrative expenses increased $0.4 million or 9.1% from the first six months of 2003 to the same period in 2004.  The increase primarily resulted from increased cost in our call center and the increased costs associated with operating the properties acquired in 2004 and 2003.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $9.6 million in the first six months of 2004 from $9.2 million in the same period in 2003, primarily as a result of additional depreciation taken on real estate assets acquired in 2004 and a full period of depreciation on 2003 acquisitions.

Income from operations increased from $21.7 million in the first six months of 2003 to $23.8 million for the same period in 2004 as a result of the aforementioned items.

Interest expense increased from $7.1 million in the first six months of 2003 to $8.4 million for the same period in 2004 as a result of higher interest rates associated with the fixed rate debt entered into in September 2003 and increased borrowings.

As described in Note 5 to the financial statements, during the six months ended June 30, 2004 we sold four non-strategic storage facilities for $9.8 million.  The historical operations of the facilities sold and the related gain on sale are included as discontinued operations.

FOR THE THREE MONTHS APRIL 1, 2004 THROUGH JUNE 30, 2004, COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS APRIL 1, 2003 THROUGH JUNE 30, 2003

We recorded rental revenues of $29.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, an increase of $2.5 million or 9.3% when compared to rental revenues of $26.9 million during the same period in 2003.  Of this increase, $1.3 million resulted from a 4.9% increase in rental revenues at the 249 core properties considered in same store sales (those properties included in the consolidated results of operations since April 1, 2003).  The increase in same store rental revenues was achieved primarily through rate increases on select units and an increase in occupancy.  The remaining $1.2 million increase in rental revenues resulted from the acquisition of seven stores in the quarter ended June 30, 2004 and from having the 2003 acquisitions included for the entire period of operations in 2004.  Other income increased $0.2 million due to the additional revenue generated by truck rentals and increased insurance sales.

Property operating and real estate tax expense increased $0.9 million or 10.2% in the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003.  Of this $0.2 million was incurred by the facilities acquired in 2004 and from having the 2003 acquisitions included for a full period of operations in 2004.  The remaining $0.7 million increase was due to increased personnel, truck expense, utilities, insurance and increased property taxes in 2004 at the 249 core properties considered same stores.

General and administrative expenses increased $0.3 million or 11.5% from the three months ended June 30, 2003 to the same period in 2004.  The increase primarily resulted from increased cost in our call center, increased board of director's expenses, and the increased costs associated with operating the properties acquired in 2004 and 2003.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $4.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $4.6 million in the same period in 2003, primarily as a result of additional depreciation taken on real estate assets acquired in 2004 and a full period of depreciation on 2003 acquisitions.

Income from operations increased from $11.3 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2003 to $12.5 million for the same period in 2004 as a result of the aforementioned items.

Interest expense increased from $3.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003 to $4.3 million for the same period in 2004 as a result of higher interest rates associated with the fixed rate debt entered into in September 2003 and increased borrowings.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

We believe that Funds from Operations ("FFO") provides relevant and meaningful information about our operating performance that is necessary, along with net earnings and cash flows, for an understanding of our operating results.  Funds from operations is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT") as net income computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), excluding gains or losses on sales of properties, plus depreciation and amortization and after adjustments to record unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures on the same basis.  We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be considered along with our reported net income and cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements.















- 14 -

<PAGE>

Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently.  FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, or as an indicator of our ability to make cash distributions.  The following table sets forth the calculation of FFO:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our ability to retain cash flow is limited because we operate as a REIT.  In order to maintain our REIT status, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow must be used to pay dividends to our unitholders.  We believe that our internally generated net cash provided by operating activities and our revolving line of credit will continue to be sufficient to fund ongoing operations, capital improvements, dividends and debt service requirements through September 2006, at which time our revolving line of credit matures.

Cash flows from operating activities were $29.3 million and $26.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.  The increase is primarily attributable to increased net income from continuing operations and an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

On September 4, 2003, we entered into agreements for new unsecured credit arrangements, and received funds under those arrangements.  Our new unsecured line of credit provides availability up to $75 million (expandable to $100 million), of which $49 million was drawn as of August 2, 2004.  We anticipate entering into agreements with our lenders to increase the maximum borrowings under the unsecured line of credit to $100 million during 2004 for the purpose of funding future acquisitions.  The revolving line of credit facility matures in September 2006 and bears interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.375%.  We also entered into a $100 million term note through September 2008 at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.50%.

In addition to the line of credit and term note mentioned above, in 2003 we also issued a $80 million unsecured term note bearing interest at a fixed rate of 6.26% and a $20 million unsecured term note bearing interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.50%.  The term notes mature September 2013.

The line of credit facility and term notes currently have investment grade ratings from Standard and Poor's (BBB-), Moody's (Baa3), and Fitch (BBB-).

In February 2002, the consolidated joint venture (Locke Sovran II, LLC) entered into a mortgage note of $48 million.  The note is secured by the 27 properties owned by the joint venture with a cost of $79 million.  The 10-year note bears interest at a fixed rate of 7.19%.

In July 1999, we issued 1,200,000 shares of 9.85% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock is currently rated by Standard and Poor's (BB+), Moody's (Ba2) and Fitch (BB+).  We redeemed all outstanding shares of our Series B Preferred Stock on August 2, 2004 at a total cost of $30 million.  In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Topic D-42, "The Effect on the Calculation of Earnings per Share for the Redemption or Induced Conversion of Preferred Stock", in the quarter ended September 30, 2004, we will record a reduction of approximately $1.4 million from net income to arrive at net income available to common unitholders relating to the difference between the Series B Preferred Stock carrying value and the redemption amount.

On July 3, 2002, we entered into an agreement providing for the issuance of 2,800,000 shares of 8.375% Series C Convertible Cumulative Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 379,166 shares of common stock at $32.60 per share in a privately negotiated transaction.  We immediately issued 1,600,000 shares of the Series C Preferred and issued the remaining 1,200,000 shares on November 27, 2002.  The offering price was $25.00 per share and the net proceeds of $67.9 million were used to reduce indebtedness that was incurred in the June 2002 acquisition of seven self-storage properties and to repay a portion of the line of credit.  On August 4, 2004, 400,000 shares of the Series C Preferred Stock were converted into 306,748 shares of our common stock at the request of the holder.

During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we issued 777,000 shares through our Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan and Stock Option Plan resulting in net proceeds of $25.3 million.

From the inception of our Share Repurchase Program through June 30, 2004, we have reacquired a total of 1,171,886 shares of common stock pursuant to this program.  No shares of common stock were repurchased by us under the Share Repurchase Program during the six-months ended June 30, 2004.  From time to time, subject to market price and certain loan covenants, we may reacquire additional shares.

Future acquisitions, share repurchases and repayment of the credit line are expected to be funded with the revolving line of credit, issuance of secured or unsecured term notes, issuance of common or preferred stock, sale of properties, private placement solicitation of joint venture equity and other sources of capital.

ACQUISITION OF PROPERTIES

During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we used operating cash flows, borrowings on the line of credit, and proceeds from the sale of storage facilities to acquire eight properties in Connecticut, Florida, and Texas comprising 650,000 square feet from unaffiliated storage operators for $51.4 million.

The Operating Partnership has entered into agreements to acquire two storage facilities for $15 million in the third quarter of 2004.  These acquisitions will be funded with borrowings under the revolving line of credit.

DISPOSITION OF PROPERTIES

During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we sold four storage facilities to unaffiliated parties for $9.8 million.  The operations of these four facilities and the gain on sale are reported as discontinued operations on the financial statements.  We may seek to sell additional non-strategic properties to third parties in 2004.

DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS OF THE COMPANY AND IMPACT ON THE OPERATING PARTNERSHIP

As a REIT, the Company is not required to pay federal income tax on income that it distributes to its shareholders, provided that the amount distributed is equal to at least 90% of its taxable income.  These distributions must be made in the year to which they relate, or in the following year if declared before the Company files its federal income tax return, and if it is paid before the first regular dividend of the following year.  The first distribution of 2004 may be applied toward the Company's 2003 distribution requirement.  The Company's source of funds for such distributions is solely and directly from the Operating Partnership.

- 17 -

<PAGE>

As a REIT, the Company must derive at least 95% of its total gross income from income related to real property, interest and dividends. In the first six months of 2004, the Company's percentage of revenue from such sources exceeded 97%, thereby passing the 95% test, and no special measures are expected to be required to enable the Company to maintain its REIT designation.

INTEREST RATE RISK

At June 30, 2004, we have three outstanding interest rate swap agreements.  The first, entered into in March 2001, effectively fixes the LIBOR base rate at 5.36% through November 2005 on $50 million notional amount.  The second, entered in September 2001, effectively fixes the LIBOR base rate at 4.485% through October 2006 on another $50 million notional amount.  The third, also entered in September 2001, effectively fixes the LIBOR base rate at 4.805% through September 2008 on $30 million notional amount.  We have an unsecured credit facility in place through September 2006 enabling us to borrow funds at rates of LIBOR plus 1.375%, an unsecured term note at rates of LIBOR plus 1.5% through September 2008, and an unsecured term note at rates of LIBOR plus 1.5% through September 2013.  As a result of the above described interest rate swap agreements, we have fixed our interest rate through November 2005 on $9 million at 6.735%, and $41 million at 6.86%, through October 2006 on $50 million at 5.985%, and through September 2008 on $30 million at 6.305%.  Upon renewal or replacement of the credit facility, our total interest may change dependent on the terms we negotiate with the lenders; however, the LIBOR base rates have been contractually fixed on $130 million of our debt through the interest rate swap termination dates.

Through November 2005, $210 million of our $217 million of unsecured debt is on a fixed rate basis after taking into account the interest rate swaps noted above.  Based on our outstanding debt of $217 million at June 30, 2004, a 1% increase in interest rates would have less than a $0.1 million effect on our interest expense.

INFLATION

We do not believe that inflation has had or will have a direct effect on our operations. Substantially all of the leases at the facilities are on a month-to-month basis which provides us with the opportunity to increase rental rates as each lease matures.















- 18 -

<PAGE>

SEASONALITY

Our revenues typically have been higher in the third and fourth quarters of a fiscal year, primarily because we increase rental rates on most of our storage units at the beginning of May and because self-storage facilities tend to experience greater occupancy during the late spring, summer and early fall months due to the greater incidence of residential moves during these periods. However, we believe that our tenant mix, diverse geographic locations, rental structure and expense structure provide adequate protection against undue fluctuations in cash flows and net revenues during off-peak seasons. Thus, we do not expect seasonality to affect materially distributions to shareholders.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB 51."  The primary objectives of this interpretation are to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights ("variable interest entities") and how to determine when and which business enterprise (the "primary beneficiary") should consolidate the variable interest entity.  This new model for consolidation applies to an entity in which either (i) the equity investors (if any) do not have a controlling financial interest, or (ii) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity's activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties.  In addition, FIN 46 requires that the primary beneficiary, as well as all other enterprises with a significant variable interest in a variable interest entity, make additional disclosures.  Certain disclosure requirements of FIN 46 were effective for financial statements issued after January 31, 2003.  In December 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46 (revised December 2003), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46-R") to address certain FIN 46 implementation issues.  There was no impact to the Operating Partnership of adopting FIN 46-R.
