EXHIBIT 10.1
SEVERANCE AGREEMENT AND RELEASE

This Severance Agreement and Release (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between Greg Werner (“Executive”) and Werner Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”), on August 27, 2015.  Executive and the Company are sometimes collectively referred to as the “Parties” and singularly as “Party.”

1.Executive’s employment with the Company will end effective August 27, 2015 (the “Termination Date”).  This Agreement outlines the general terms of Executive’s separation from employment with the Company and the obligations and benefits to which Executive and the Company have agreed in exchange for the promises and covenants contained herein.  The Company expressly disclaims any wrongdoing or any liability to Executive.  

2.The Parties will announce Executive’s separation from the Company as a voluntary resignation in a form and manner that are mutually agreeable to the Parties.  

3.Executive retains his position as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company for the remainder of his current term, or until May 2017, subject to the Company’s rules, procedures and bylaws governing the Board.  The Company shall designate an office at the Company’s headquarters for Executive’s use until May 2017, or until Executive’s tenure as Board member ceases, whichever is sooner.

4.The Company acknowledges that it will pay Executive’s regular salary for hours worked through the Termination Date and reimburse Executive for properly documented and timely submitted business expenses pursuant to the Company’s expense reimbursement policies.  Executive acknowledges and agrees that any bonuses given by the Company as compensation to its executives are awarded at the Company’s sole discretion and are not payable on a pro rata basis and that Executive consequently has not earned any bonus, is not owed any bonus, and will not be paid any bonus.  Executive further acknowledges and agrees that he is not, and will not become, entitled to any other compensation or bonuses except as provided by this Agreement and that upon full payment of the compensation identified in this Paragraph 4, Executive will have received all compensation to which Executive became entitled during Executive’s employment through the Termination Date.

5.The Parties agree that Executive has the right to purchase the vehicle provided by the Company for his use during his employment, upon notice by Executive within seven (7) days of the date of this executed Agreement.  Executive agrees to pay the Company $55,460.00, which the Parties agree is the actual value of the vehicle.  

6.The Parties acknowledge that additional de minimis terms have been set forth in a Supplemental Severance Agreement, dated August 27, 2015.  Such terms are fully incorporated herein by reference.

7.All benefits that Executive currently receives from the Company shall terminate on the Termination Date; provided, however, that Executive’s health and dental benefits (if applicable) may continue, consistent with Company policy, through the last day of the month which includes the Termination Date.  Moreover, the termination of any health insurance benefits is subject to Executive’s rights under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”).  

8.In exchange for Executive’s execution of this Agreement, and Executive’s performance of his obligations hereunder, the Company agrees to provide Executive the following severance benefits:

The Company agrees to pay Executive ten (10) payments, each in a gross amount of $400,000.00.  Each payment will be paid as a separate lump sum, less withholdings for applicable taxes.  The first payment shall be made on January 1, 2016.  The remaining nine (9) payments shall be made every six (6) months, with the last payment to be made on July 1, 2020.
The Company further agrees to pay for Executive’s COBRA premiums for medical coverage for the eighteen (18) months following the Termination Date.
Executive specifically acknowledges and agrees that this consideration exceeds the amount Executive would otherwise be entitled to receive upon termination of Executive’s employment and that such payments are in exchange for entering into and performing this Agreement.  Executive agrees that Executive will not at any time seek consideration from the Company other than what is set forth in this Agreement.  Executive specifically acknowledges and agrees that the Company has made no representations to Executive regarding the tax consequences of any amounts received by Executive or for Executive’s benefit pursuant to this Agreement, and Executive has not relied on any representation or lack of representation by the Company.  

9.Executive states and affirms that Executive is solely responsible for the tax liability resulting from any compensation previously paid to Executive, for compensation paid through the Termination Date, and for any compensation, in any form, that is to be paid to Executive pursuant to this Agreement.

10.Executive represents that Executive has not filed any complaints, lawsuits, administrative complaints or charges arising from or relating to Executive’s employment with, or termination from, the Company, and Executive further represents Executive has not assigned to any third parties any claims or causes of action Executive may hold against the Company.  

11.Except to the extent prohibited by law, Executive and Executive’s heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns hereby fully release the Company and each of its direct and indirect subsidiaries (including, without limitation, each entity that is considered to be a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company for accounting purposes) (collectively, the “Werner Companies”) and each of their respective predecessors, successors and past and present direct and indirect stakeholders, directors, officers, employees, contractors, representatives, agents and assigns (together with the Werner Companies, the “Company Releasees”) from any and all claims, complaints, causes of action or demands, of whatever kind or nature, that Executive now has or has ever had against the Company or any of the Company Releasees, arising from or relating to Executive’s employment with or discharge from the Company, whether known or unknown to Executive at the time of Executive’s execution of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, wrongful or tortious termination, specifically including, but not limited to, actual or constructive termination in violation of public policy; military leave, reinstatement or related rights; claims under common law, statute or contract, specifically including, but not limited to, implied or express employment contracts and/or estoppel; discrimination, retaliation and/or any other claims under any federal, state or local statute or regulation, specifically including, but not limited, to any claims Executive may have under the WARN Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, 42 U.S.C. Section 1981, the Family and Medical Leave Act, and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, all as amended; any and all claims brought under any applicable state or local employment, discrimination or other statutes, including, but not limited to, the Nebraska Fair Employment Practices Act and Nebraska’s Unjust Discrimination Because of Employment Act; any claims brought under any federal, state or local law, ordinance, statute or regulation; any claims with respect to nonpayment of wages, severance pay, stock or stock options or other compensation (including, but not limited to, bonuses due after the Termination Date), including, but not limited to, the Nebraska Wage Payment and Collection Act; and libel, slander, fraud, misrepresentation or breach of contract other than the breach of this Agreement.  This Agreement contains a general release of all claims.  This release specifically excludes claims, charges, complaints, causes of action or demands of whatever kind or nature that arise after the Termination Date.

12.Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude or interfere with Executive’s rights under federal, state or local civil rights or employment discrimination laws to file a complaint with any federal, state or local agency or self-regulatory organization charged with enforcing such laws, including, but not limited, to the Nebraska Equal Opportunity Commission (“NEOC”) or the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”).  Nor shall this Agreement be construed to prevent Executive from assisting in, cooperating with or participating in any investigations or proceedings by such agency or self‐regulatory organization pursuant to a lawful subpoena or equivalent order.  None of the foregoing acts by Executive shall constitute a breach of any nondisparagement, confidentiality or cooperation clauses or any other clause of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive hereby waives any and all rights Executive may have to recovery of any damages (whether monetary or otherwise) in connection with any complaint or charge Executive may file pursuant to this Paragraph and that the amount specified in Paragraph 8 herein is sufficient consideration for any such claims. 

13.Executive will not take any actions that would reasonably be expected to be detrimental to the interests of the Company, nor make derogatory statements, either written or oral, to any third party, or otherwise publicly disparage the Company, its products, services or any of its Board of Directors, officers, employees, contractors, representatives, agents and assigns and will not authorize any family member, agent or third party to make derogatory or disparaging statements on Executive’s behalf.  The Company shall not authorize, and shall take reasonable measures to prevent its present or former owners, officers and directors from taking actions that would reasonably be expected to be detrimental to the interests of Executive or from making derogatory or disparaging statements regarding Executive to any third party.  This provision does not and is not intended to preclude Executive from providing truthful testimony in response to legal process or a governmental inquiry.  Nothing in this Paragraph is intended to restrict Executive from engaging in activity protected by the National Labor Relations Act.

14.Through September 30, 2015 (the “Transition Period”), Executive agrees to make himself reasonably available to the Company to provide services to assist with an orderly and efficient transition of his duties.  During the Transition Period, Executive’s access to Company information, equipment and systems, if any, will be determined by the Company and at the Company’s sole discretion.

15.Executive agrees to fully and completely cooperate with the Company to the extent such cooperation does not materially and unreasonably interfere with any subsequent employment, with respect to matters that relate to Executive’s period 

of employment, in all investigation, litigation, administrative hearing, compliance investigation or other internal or external investigation in which the Company is involved or may become involved other than any such investigations, potential litigation or litigation between the Company and Executive.  Executive will make himself reasonably available to provide assistance which may include, but is not limited to, testifying on behalf of the Company in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and assisting the Company in any such action, suit or proceeding, by providing information as requested by the Company and meeting and consulting with the Company and its representatives or counsel, as requested.  The Company agrees to reimburse Executive, on an after-tax basis, for all reasonable expenses actually incurred in connection with his provision of testimony or assistance.

16.Executive shall treat all Confidential Information (as herein defined) obtained during Executive’s employment by the Company as confidential, using the same degree of care to protect the Confidential Information as the Company uses to protect its Confidential Information and shall not, without written authorization from the Company, release or share such information with any third party, except as may be required by law.  “Confidential Information” means the Company’s proprietary information, including, but not limited to, customer or vendor lists, information obtained through customer or vendor contacts, trade secrets, marketing plans, business plans, financial reports and any other information relating to the business of the Company or any affiliate that would be detrimental to the Company if disclosed to competitors or to any other third party; provided, however, that “Confidential Information” shall not include information that is part of the public domain (other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement).

17.For a period of eighteen (18) consecutive months after Executive’s execution of this Agreement, Executive shall not directly or indirectly engage in the business of the Company and shall not directly or indirectly own, manage, operate, control, be employed by, be a consultant to, participate in, or have a financial interest in, or be connected in any manner (including as an employee, consultant, officer, director, owner or lender) with the ownership, management, operation or conduct of any entity engaged in the business of the Company and which is competitive with the Company.  “Business of the Company” is defined to include local, regional and medium-to-long-haul, expedited and dedicated transportation services, utilizing dry van, temperature-controlled and flatbed trailers, freight management, truck brokerage, intermodal transportation services, and international transportation services, including ocean, air and ground transportation, freight forwarding and customs brokerage. The restriction in this Paragraph 17 shall apply in any region in which the Company is conducting business, whether inside or outside the United States.

18.For a period of eighteen (18) consecutive months after Executive’s execution of this Agreement, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, whether as an individual for his own account or for or with any other person, firm, corporation, partnership, joint venture, association or other entity whatsoever, solicit, interfere with or endeavor to entice away from the Company any person, firm, corporation, partnership or entity of any kind whatsoever which was or is a client or customer of the Company, for which the Company performed services, with respect to any business, product or service that is competitive with the products or services offered by the Company, as of the date of the termination of Executive’s employment relationship with the Company. 

19.For a period of eighteen (18) consecutive months after Executive’s execution of this Agreement, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, whether as an individual for his own account or for or with any other person, firm, corporation, partnership, joint venture, association or other entity whatsoever, solicit, interfere with or endeavor to entice away any employee, consultant, independent contractor, vendor or business contact of the Company and/or any of its affiliates to discontinue his association or relationship with the Company and/or any of its affiliates.

20.Executive warrants that no promise or inducement has been offered for this Agreement other than as set forth herein and that this Agreement is executed without reliance upon any other promises or representations, oral or written.

21.This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the Parties on the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all negotiations, representations, prior discussions and preliminary agreements between the Parties with respect to the subject matter herein.  This Agreement does not supersede any agreements, including, but not limited to, any restrictive covenants that were in effect immediately prior to the date of this Agreement and which, by their terms, survive the termination of Executive’s employment.  Executive acknowledges that provisions contained within any agreement(s) that Executive signed with the Company and which expressly survive Executive’s employment shall remain in full force and effect and survive his employment with the Company as provided by the terms of the relevant agreement.  Such terms are expressly incorporated herein.  

22.If any provision of this Agreement or compliance by Executive or the Company with any provision of this Agreement constitutes a violation of any law, or is or becomes unenforceable or void, then such provision, to the extent only that it is in violation of law, unenforceable or void, shall be modified to the extent necessary so that it is no longer in violation of law, unenforceable or void, and such provision will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.  If such modification is not 

possible, such provision, to the extent it is in violation of law, unenforceable or void, will be deemed severable from the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which remaining provisions will remain binding on both Executive and the Company.

23.This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Nebraska (without regard to its choice-of-law provisions).  The state and federal courts located in Omaha, Nebraska shall have exclusive jurisdiction of any lawsuit arising from or relating to Executive’s employment with, or termination from, the Company, or arising from or relating to this Agreement, and Executive expressly consents to personal jurisdiction in Nebraska courts and waives any right to contest the same.  The prevailing Party in any such lawsuit will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and reasonable litigation costs.

24.Executive agrees that Executive will indemnify and hold the Company harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, costs, damages or expenses incurred by the Company or any Company Releasee (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or resulting from any breach of this Agreement by Executive.  Executive further agrees that if Executive challenges this Agreement, files any claims against the Company arising from or relating to Executive’s employment with, or termination from, the Company, excluding any claim challenging the validity of Executive’s waiver of rights under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, or otherwise fails to abide by the terms of this Agreement, (a) Executive will return all moneys and benefits received by Executive from the Company pursuant to this Agreement and (b) the Company may elect, at its option and without waiver of any other rights or remedies it may have, not to pay or provide any unpaid moneys or benefits.  In the event that Executive challenges the validity of his waiver of rights under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, he agrees that the Company may recover money and benefits paid under this Agreement if Executive’s challenge and subsequent Age Discrimination in Employment Act claim are successful and he obtains a monetary award.

25.EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT EXECUTIVE HAS CAREFULLY READ AND VOLUNTARILY SIGNED THIS AGREEMENT, THAT EXECUTIVE HAS HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY OF EXECUTIVE’S CHOICE, AND THAT EXECUTIVE SIGNS THIS AGREEMENT WITH THE INTENT OF RELEASING THE COMPANY AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, REPRESENTATIVES, AGENTS AND ASSIGNS FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS. 

26.This Severance Agreement and Release shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties, as well as their successors, heirs and assigns.

27.This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, including any signed electronic facsimile copies of this Agreement, and all such counterparts together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

28.Changes in this Agreement, whether by additions, waivers, deletions, amendments or modifications, may be accomplished only by a writing signed by both Executive and the Company.

of all telephone, electric, sewer, water and other utility bills, trash removal bills, janitorial and maintenance service bills and all other operating expenses relating to the Property and allocable to the period prior to the Closing Date shall be
determined and paid by Seller before Closing, if possible, or shall be paid thereafter by Seller or as to utilities and other customarily prorated expenses adjusted between Purchaser and Seller following Closing immediately after the same have been
determined. Seller shall attempt to have all utility meters read as of the Closing Date. Purchaser shall cause all utility services to be placed in Purchaser’s name as of the Closing Date. If permitted by the applicable utilities, all utility
deposits in Seller’s name shall be assigned to Purchaser as of the Closing Date and Seller shall receive a credit therefor at Closing. 

4.2.4. Rents. Rents (including, without limitation, estimated pass-through payments, payments for common area maintenance
reconciliations, all additional charges payable by tenants under the Leases or miscellaneous income generated from the Property (collectively, “Rents”)) collected by Seller prior to Closing shall be prorated as of the Closing Date.
At Closing, Purchaser shall pay Seller an amount equal to seventy percent (70%) of all Rents that are delinquent as of Closing by 30 days or less (the “Delinquent Rents”), and after Closing, Seller shall have no claim to
any Delinquent Rents or Rents that are paid by tenants of the Property after Closing. All Delinquent Rents that are received by Purchaser following Closing shall be retained by Purchaser, and Seller shall have no rights with respect thereto. If,
subsequent to the Closing, any rents or other income are actually received by Seller, Seller shall immediately remit the same to Purchaser and Seller shall have no rights with respect thereto. After Closing, Seller shall not proceed against tenants
for Rent allocable to the period of Seller’s ownership of the Property. The amount of any unapplied security deposits under the Leases held by Seller in cash at the time of Closing shall be credited against the Purchase Price; accordingly,
Seller shall retain the actual cash deposits and Purchaser shall be responsible for same to the applicable tenants. 
 4.2.5.
Calculations. For purposes of calculating prorations, Purchaser shall be deemed to be in title to the Property, and, therefore entitled to the income therefrom and responsible for the expenses thereof for the entire day upon which the
Closing occurs. All such prorations shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days of the month which shall have elapsed as of the day of the Closing and based upon the actual number of days in the month and a three hundred sixty five
(365) day year. The amount of such prorations shall be initially performed at Closing but shall be subject to adjustment in cash after the Closing as and when complete and accurate information becomes available, if such information is not
available at the Closing. Seller and Purchaser agree to cooperate and use their best efforts to make such adjustments no later than sixty (60) days after the Closing (or as soon thereafter as may be practicable, with respect to common area
maintenance and other additional rent charges (including pass-throughs for real estate and personal property taxes and special assessments) payable by tenants under leases). Except as set forth in this Section 4.2, all items of income
and expense which accrue for the period prior to the Closing will be for the account of Seller and all items of income and expense which accrue for the period on and after the Closing will be for the account of Purchaser. The provisions of
Section 4.2 shall survive the Closing. 

  
 - 5 - 

 4.2.6. Prepaid Items. Any prepaid items, including, without limitation, fees for
licenses which are transferred to the Purchaser at the Closing and annual permit and inspection fees shall be apportioned between the Seller and the Purchaser at the Closing. 

4.2.7. Declaration Assessments. Any assessments and other charges paid by Seller under any private declaration affecting the
Property shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at the Closing. 
 4.3. Closing Costs. Seller shall pay all applicable
transfer taxes, documentary stamp taxes and similar charges relating to the transfer of the Property and the basic title premium for the Owner’s Policy, provided, however, in the event Purchaser requests that the Title Company issue more than
one Owner’s Policy (hereinafter defined) relative to the Property, Seller shall in no event be obligated to pay any title insurance premium in excess of the amount that would be payable if Purchaser requested a single Owner’s Policy for
the Property in the amount of the Purchase Price (such incremental cost, the “Incremental Title Insurance Cost”). Purchaser shall pay the cost of any endorsements to the Owner’s Policy, the Incremental Title Insurance Cost, if
any, and the cost of the Survey and any update or other changes requested by Purchaser to the Survey, including the cost of any ALTA Table A items or other certifications. 

4.4. Use of Name. Purchaser shall discontinue the use of the name “Arrington’s Self Storage”, “Star
Storage” or similar names in any internet (including Google, Bing, or other internet-based forms of advertising) or physical directory advertising which comes up for renewal after the Closing Date, but shall continue to have the right to use
such names until the current directory advertising is discontinued or the applicable cycle of internet-based advertising expires. The provisions of this Section 4.4 shall survive Closing. 

4.5. Use of Current Signs and Signage. For a commercially reasonable time following Closing, Purchaser shall have the right to
continue to use the existing signs and signage bearing Seller’s names and branding which are located on the Property. Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly obtain the necessary permits and approvals and to replace the
signs and signage with Purchaser’s sign, names and branding. The provisions of this Section 4.5 shall survive Closing. 

ARTICLE V. 

Purchaser’s Right of Inspection; Feasibility Period 

5.1. Right to Evaluate. Commencing on the Effective Date and continuing until 5:00 p.m. Dallas time on Friday, December 4,
2015 (the “Feasibility Period”), Purchaser and its agents shall have the right during business hours (with reasonable advance notice to Seller and subject to the rights of the tenants in possession), at Purchaser’s sole cost
and 

  
 - 6 - 

 
expense and at Purchaser’s and its agents’ sole risk, to perform inspections and tests of the Property and to perform such other analyses, inquiries and investigations as Purchaser
shall deem necessary or appropriate; provided, however, that in no event shall (i) such inspections or tests unreasonably disrupt or disturb the on-going operation of the Property or the rights of the tenants at the Property, or
(ii) Purchaser or its agents or representatives conduct any physical testing, drilling, boring, sampling or removal of, on or through the surface of the Property (or any part or portion thereof) including, without limitation, any ground borings
or invasive testing of the Improvements (collectively, “Physical Testing”), without Seller’s prior written consent, which consent may be given or withheld in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion. In the event Purchaser
desires to conduct any such Physical Testing of the Property, then Purchaser shall submit to Seller, for Seller’s approval, a written detailed description of the scope and extent of the proposed Physical Testing, which approval may be given or
withheld in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion. If Seller does not approve the Physical Testing or approves only a portion thereof, Purchaser may, at its option, by sending written notice to Seller, elect to, either (i) terminate this
Agreement or (ii) conduct during the Feasibility Period that portion of the Physical Testing approved by Seller, if any, or if Seller disapproves the entire proposed Physical Testing, affirmatively agree to forego any Physical Testing of the
Property. In the event Purchaser terminates this Agreement as aforesaid, the Deposit shall be immediately refunded to Purchaser without the consent or joinder of Seller being required and notwithstanding any contrary instructions which might be
provided by Seller and this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect other than the Surviving Termination Obligations (as hereinafter defined). In no event shall Seller be obligated as a condition of this transaction to
perform or pay for any environmental remediation of the Property recommended by any such Physical Testing. After making such tests and inspections, Purchaser agrees to promptly restore the Improvements and surface of the Real Property to its
condition prior to such tests and inspections (which obligation shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement). Prior to Purchaser entering the Property to conduct the inspections and tests described above, Purchaser shall obtain
and maintain, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, and shall deliver to Seller evidence of, the following insurance coverage, or shall cause each of its agents and contractors to obtain and maintain, and, upon request of Seller, shall deliver
to Seller evidence of, the following insurance coverage: general liability insurance, from an insurer reasonably acceptable to Seller, in the amount of Three Million and No/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00) combined single limit for personal injury and
property damage per occurrence, such policy to name Seller as an additional insured party, which insurance shall provide coverage against any claim for personal liability or property damage caused by Purchaser or its agents, employees or contractors
in connection with such inspections and tests. Before the entry unto the Property by Purchaser or any of its agents, Purchaser must furnish Seller with a certificate of insurance, evidencing the above coverages, on ACORD Form 27 (and
not ACORD Form 25-S), which certificate must provide that such insurance shall not be cancelled or changed until at least ten (10) days’ written notice is given to Seller. Seller shall have the right, in its discretion, to
accompany Purchaser and/or its agents during any inspection (including, but not limited to, tenant interviews) provided Seller or its agents do not unreasonably interfere with Purchaser’s inspection. 

  
 - 7 - 

 5.2. Inspection Obligations and Indemnity. Purchaser and its agents and
representatives shall: (a) not unreasonably disturb the tenants of the Improvements or interfere with their use of the Real Property pursuant to their respective Leases; (b) not interfere with the operation and maintenance of the Real
Property; (c) not damage any part of the Property or any personal property owned or held by any tenant; (d) not injure or otherwise cause bodily harm to Seller, its agents, contractors and employees or any tenant; (e) promptly pay
when due the costs of all tests, investigations and examinations performed by Purchaser with regard to the Property; (f) not permit any liens to attach to the Property by reason of the exercise of its rights hereunder; (g) restore the
Improvements and the surface of the Real Property to the condition in which the same was found before any such inspection or tests were undertaken; (h) not reveal or disclose any information obtained during the Feasibility Period concerning the
Property to anyone outside Purchaser’s organization other than its agents, consultants, representatives, attorneys, lenders, financial partners and their agents, consultants and representatives; (i) not contact or otherwise interview any
tenant except in the presence of Seller or one of Seller’s representatives; and (j) not contact any Federal, State or local governmental authority concerning the Property, other than standard requests for zoning verification materials.
Purchaser shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws, statutes, rules, regulations, ordinances or policies in conducting its inspection of the Property and Physical Testing. Purchaser shall, and
does hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold the Seller, its partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and their respective successors and assigns, harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, obligations,
payments, damages, losses, penalties, liabilities, costs and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of Purchaser’s or Purchaser’s agents’ actions taken in, on or about the Property in the
exercise of the inspection right granted pursuant to Section 5.1, including, without limitation, (i) claims made by any tenant against Seller for Purchaser’s entry into such tenant’s premises or any interference with any
tenant’s use or damage to its premises or property in connection with Purchaser’s review of the Property, and (ii) Purchaser’s obligations pursuant to this Section 5.2, but exclusive of any damages to the
marketability of the Property resulting from any adverse tests or inspections obtained by Purchaser. This Section 5.2 shall survive the Closing and/or any termination of this Agreement. 

5.3. Seller Deliveries. Seller has made available to Purchaser, all of the items specified on Exhibit B attached hereto
(the “Documents”) but only to the extent such items are in Seller’s possession or control; provided, however, except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 7.1 hereof, Seller makes no
representations or warranties of any kind regarding the accuracy, thoroughness or completeness of or conclusions drawn in the information contained in such documents, if any, relating to the Property. Subject to Seller’s representations and
warranties set forth in Section 7.1 hereof and in the documents delivered by Seller at Closing, Purchaser hereby waives any and all claims against Seller arising out of the accuracy, completeness, conclusions or statements expressed in
materials so furnished and any and all claims arising out of any duty of Seller to acquire, seek or obtain such materials. Notwithstanding anything contained in the preceding sentence, Seller shall not deliver or make available to Purchaser
Seller’s internal memoranda, attorney-client 

  
 - 8 - 

 
privileged materials, roof or other physical inspection reports, internal appraisals and economic evaluations of the Property, and reports regarding the Property prepared by Seller or its
affiliates solely for internal use or for the information of the investors in Seller. Purchaser acknowledges that any and all of the Documents that are not otherwise known by or available to the public are proprietary and confidential in nature and
will be delivered to Purchaser solely to assist Purchaser in determining the feasibility of purchasing the Property. Prior to Closing, Purchaser agrees not to disclose such non-public Documents, or any of the provisions, terms or conditions thereof,
to any party outside of Purchaser’s organization other than its agents, consultants, attorneys, representatives, lenders and financial partners and their agents, consultants and representatives. Purchaser shall return all of the Documents
provided by Seller to Purchaser, on or before three (3) business days after the first to occur of (a) such time as Purchaser notifies Seller in writing that it shall not acquire the Property, or (b) such time as this Agreement is
terminated for any reason. This Section 5.3 shall survive any termination of this Agreement without limitation, except as provided in Section 12.1 below. 

5.4. Independent Examination. Purchaser hereby acknowledges that it has been, or will have been given, prior to the termination
of the Feasibility Period, a full, complete and adequate opportunity to make such legal, factual and other determinations, analyses, inquiries and investigations as Purchaser deems necessary or appropriate in connection with the acquisition of the
Property. Purchaser is relying upon its own independent examination of the Property and all matters relating thereto and not upon any statements of Seller (excluding the matters expressly represented by Seller in Article VII hereof) or of any
officer, director, employee, agent or attorney of Seller with respect to acquiring the Property. Subject to Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in Article VII hereof, Seller shall not be deemed to have represented or
warranted the completeness or accuracy of any studies, investigations and reports heretofore or hereafter furnished to Purchaser. The provisions of this Section 5.4 shall survive Closing and/or termination of this Agreement. 

5.5. Termination Right. In the event that Purchaser determines that it does not desire to acquire the Property for any reason or
for no reason and in Purchaser’s sole discretion, Purchaser shall provide written notice to Seller before the end of the Feasibility Period, and, subject to the Surviving Termination Obligations (as defined in Section 16.12 herein),
this Agreement shall terminate, the Deposit shall be delivered to Purchaser without the consent or joinder of Seller being required and notwithstanding any contrary instructions which might be provided by Seller and thereupon neither party shall
have any further rights or obligations to the other hereunder. If Purchaser shall fail to timely notify Seller in writing of its election to terminate this Agreement on or before the expiration of the Feasibility Period, time being of the essence,
the termination right described in this Section 5.5 shall be immediately null and void and of no further force or effect. Purchaser’s failure to provide such notice on or before the end of the Feasibility Period shall constitute
Purchaser’s waiver of the herein-described termination right. This is an “all or none” transaction and Purchaser has no right to terminate this Agreement as to any part of the Property. 

  
 - 9 - 

 5.6. Copies of Reports. As additional consideration for the transaction
contemplated herein, Purchaser agrees that it will provide to Seller, within five (5) days following a written request therefor, copies of any and all third (3rd) party reports, tests or
studies relating to the Property in Purchaser’s possession, including but not limited to those involving environmental matters. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, no termination of this Agreement shall terminate Purchaser’s
obligations pursuant to the foregoing sentence. 
 ARTICLE VI. 

Title and Survey Matters 

6.1. Title. Purchaser hereby acknowledges receipt of a title insurance commitment (the “Commitment”) for an
Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance, issued by Fidelity National Title Insurance Company (the “Title Company”), covering the Real Property, together with a copy of all exceptions set forth therein. Purchaser shall notify Seller
in writing (such written notice, (“Purchaser’s Title Objection Notice”) on or before November 30, 2015 (the “Title Deadline Date”) of any title exceptions identified in the Commitment which Purchaser
disapproves (such disapproved title and survey matters, collectively, the “Unpermitted Exceptions”). If Purchaser elects not to terminate this Agreement under Section 5.5, Purchaser will be deemed to have waived any
Unpermitted Exceptions which remain uncured as of the end of the Feasibility Period (other than those Unpermitted Exceptions, if any, which Seller, in Seller’s sole discretion, has agreed in Seller’s Response to cure prior to Closing) and
such uncured Unpermitted Exceptions shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions. Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that (i) all non-delinquent property taxes and assessments, (ii) the rights of the tenants under the Leases, and
(iii) all matters created by or on behalf of Purchaser, including, without limitation, any documents or instruments to be recorded as part of any financing for the acquisition of the Property by Purchaser, shall constitute “Permitted
Exceptions”. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any deed of trust liens created or assumed by Seller against the Property or any tax or mechanics’ liens filed against the Property as a result of Seller’s acts or failure to
act (and not the act or failure to act of any tenant), whether or not timely objected, shall not be Permitted Exceptions and shall be removed or terminated, as applicable, by Seller on or before Closing. Without Seller’s prior written consent,
Purchaser shall not make any application to any governmental agency for any permit, approval, license or other entitlement for the Property or the use or development thereof. 

6.2. Survey. Seller has provided Purchaser with a copy of Seller’s existing survey of the Property (the “Existing
Survey”). Purchaser shall have the right to request a new survey or an update to the Existing Survey (any such new or updated survey, the “Survey”) during the Feasibility Period. If the Survey discloses any Unpermitted
Exceptions, Purchaser shall include same in Purchaser’s Title Objection Notice to be delivered no later than the Title Deadline Date. Any survey matter shown on the Survey not disapproved in writing within said time period (or otherwise shown
on the Survey as of the last day of the Feasibility Period) shall be deemed approved by Purchaser and shall constitute a Permitted Exception hereunder. If Purchaser elects not to terminate this Agreement under Section 5.5,

  
 - 10 - 

 
Purchaser will be deemed to have waived any survey objections which remain uncured as of the end of the Feasibility Period and such uncured survey objections shall be considered Permitted
Exceptions. If Purchaser fails, for any or no reason, to obtain the Survey during the Feasibility Period, Purchaser will be deemed to have waived any requirement set forth in this Agreement regarding the Survey and all matters shown on the Existing
Survey or which would be shown on a current survey of the Property had one been obtained (except to the extent Purchaser objects to matters reflected in the Existing Survey in the same manner provided for matters that would have been disclosed by
the Survey, if obtained by Purchaser, in accordance with this Section 6.2), shall also be considered “Permitted Exceptions.” 

6.3. Title Objections. If Seller receives Purchaser’s Title Objection Notice on or prior to the Title Deadline Date, Seller
may elect (but shall not be obligated) to attempt to remove, or cause to be removed at its expense, any Unpermitted Exceptions. Seller shall give Purchaser notice on or before the two (2) days prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period
of its intention to cure any Unpermitted Exceptions and, if Seller fails to so provide any such notice, Seller will be deemed to have elected not to cure any Unpermitted Exceptions. If Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not
to attempt to cure any Unpermitted Exceptions, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Deposit or to waive such Unpermitted Exceptions and proceed to the Closing. Purchaser must make such election on or
before the last day of the Feasibility Period. If Purchaser elects to proceed to the Closing, any Unpermitted Exceptions shall be deemed waived by Purchaser and, as a result, shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions. If Purchaser elects to terminate
this Agreement, Purchaser shall promptly return or destroy (at Purchaser’s election, subject to Purchaser’s customary document retention policy) the Documents to Seller and, subject to the Surviving Termination Obligations, this Agreement
shall terminate, the Deposit shall be delivered to Purchaser without that consent or joinder of Seller being required and notwithstanding any contrary instructions which might be provided by Seller and thereupon neither party shall have any further
rights or obligations to the other hereunder. Purchaser’s failure to provide written notice of its election to waive such Unpermitted Exceptions or to terminate this Agreement on or before the last day of the Feasibility Period shall be deemed
an election by Purchaser to waive such Unpermitted Exceptions and to proceed to the Closing, in which case such Unpermitted Exceptions shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions. 

6.4. New Title Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Commitment is updated, and, if
Purchaser obtains the Survey during the Feasibility Period, such Survey if further updated, in each case after the Feasibility Period to reflect a new title or survey exception which would, in Purchaser’s reasonable opinion, materially
adversely affect title to the Property (a “New Title Exception”), Purchaser shall, as long as such New Title Exception was not caused, created or consented to by Purchaser, have the right to object to same by delivery of written
notice to Seller (the “New Title Objection Notice”) on or before the earlier of the Closing Date or three (3) business days following the date Purchaser receives the updated Commitment or Survey. If Purchaser fails to timely
deliver the New Title Objection Notice, Purchaser will be deemed to have 

  
 - 11 - 

 
waived such New Title Exception and same will be considered a Permitted Exception hereunder. Seller has no obligation to cure any New Title Exception, but if Seller timely receives a New Title
Objection Notice and fails to provide the Title Company with such affidavits, indemnities, bonds or other assurances necessary for the Title Company to issue the Title Policy without exception for such New Title Exception, then Purchaser shall have
the right to terminate this Agreement by delivery of written notice to Seller and the Title Company on or before the Closing Date. If Purchaser timely delivers such termination notice, the Deposit shall be delivered to Purchaser without the consent
or joinder of Seller being required and notwithstanding any contrary instructions which might be provided by Seller and thereupon neither party shall, subject to the Surviving Termination Obligations, have any further rights or obligations to the
other hereunder. If Purchaser shall fail to timely notify Seller in writing of its election to terminate this Agreement on or before the Closing Date, time being of the essence, the termination right described in this Section 6.4 shall
be immediately null and void and of no further force or effect, the Closing will occur as scheduled and the Permitted Exceptions will include all uncured New Title Exceptions.

written notice of its election either (i) terminate this Agreement or (ii) waive such breach and proceed to Closing with no adjustment in the Purchase Price and Seller shall have no further liability as to such matter thereafter. In the

source, including, without limitation the property manager, the tenant estoppel certificates, as a result of Purchaser’s due diligence tests, investigations and inspections of the Property, or disclosure by Seller or Seller’s agents and
employees) that contradicts any such representations and warranties, or renders any such representations and warranties untrue or incorrect, and Purchaser nevertheless consummates the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. 

7.4. Survival. All representations and warranties of Seller in this Agreement (a) shall expire and be of no further force

the extent, if any, that Purchaser shall have given Seller written notice during the Survival Period which describes in reasonable detail the breach or alleged breach of such representations and warranties and the curative actions requested by
Purchaser and provides Seller with a reasonable period of time in which to resolve such matters to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser; and (b) shall expire and be of no further force and effect on the first day following the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date (the period between the Closing and such day, the “Claim Commencement Period”) with respect to any matters disclosed in a notice delivered by

If such condemnation or casualty is “Material” (as hereinafter defined), Purchaser shall have the option to terminate this Agreement as to the self-storage facility comprising the Property on which said Material condemnation or

consent or joinder of Seller being required and notwithstanding any contrary instructions which might be provided by Seller, (ii) the parties shall proceed to Closing with respect to the remainder of the Property, with the Purchase Price being

interest therein) payable with respect to such fire or other casualty or condemnation including any rent abatement insurance for such casualty or condemnation, (y) Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price for any applicable
deductible under Seller’s insurance policy, and (z) the parties shall proceed to Closing pursuant to the terms hereof without abatement of the Purchase Price. 

  
 - 22 - 

 12.2. Condemnation Not Material. If the condemnation is not Material, then the
Closing shall occur without abatement of the Purchase Price and, after deducting Seller’s reasonable costs and expenses incurred in collecting any award, Seller shall assign, without recourse, all remaining awards or any rights to collect
awards to Purchaser on the Closing Date. 
 12.3. Casualty Not Material. If the Casualty is not Material, then the Closing
shall occur without abatement of the Purchase Price and Seller shall not be obligated to repair such damage or destruction and Seller shall assign, without recourse, and turn over to Purchaser all of the insurance proceeds net of any costs of
repairs and net of reasonable collection costs (or, if such have not been awarded, all of its right, title and interest therein) payable with respect to such fire or such casualty including any rent abatement insurance for such casualty and
Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price for any applicable deductible under Seller’s insurance policy. 
 12.4.

 ARTICLE
XIII. 
 Default 

13.1. Default by Seller. In the event the Closing and the transactions contemplated hereby do not occur as provided herein by
reason of the default of Seller, Purchaser may elect, as the sole and exclusive remedy of Purchaser, to (i) terminate this Agreement and receive the Deposit from the Escrow Agent, and, if Seller’s default is intentional or willful, Seller
shall reimburse Purchaser for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, all fees, costs or expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with the financing of its intended
acquisition of the Property, such as loan deposits, commitment fees, rate lock letters and similar lender expenses in an amount not to exceed in the aggregate Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000.00), and thereafter, Seller shall
not have any liability whatsoever to Purchaser hereunder other than with respect to the Surviving Termination Obligations, or (ii) enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligation to convey the Property, without adjustment to, or credit
against, the Purchase Price. Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate

or before ten (10) days after the originally scheduled Closing Date, or having given Seller notice within such 10 day period, fails to file a lawsuit asserting such cause of action within thirty (30) days after the originally scheduled
Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall limit Purchaser’s remedies at law or in equity, as to the Surviving Termination Obligations. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in
the event Purchaser terminates the Agreement pursuant to Section 7.3 hereof, Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 13.1 and visa versa. 

13.2. Default by Purchaser. IN THE EVENT THE CLOSING AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY DO NOT OCCUR AS PROVIDED HEREIN BY
REASON OF ANY DEFAULT OF PURCHASER, PURCHASER AND SELLER AGREE IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX THE DAMAGES WHICH SELLER MAY SUFFER. THEREFORE, PURCHASER AND SELLER HEREBY AGREE THAT THE DEPOSIT REPRESENTS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE
OF THE TOTAL NET DETRIMENT SELLER WOULD SUFFER IN THE EVENT PURCHASER DEFAULTS AND FAILS TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY AND THE DEPOSIT SHALL BE, SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY (WHETHER AT LAW OR IN EQUITY), IN SUCH EVENT. UPON
SUCH DEFAULT BY PURCHASER, SELLER SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE THE DEPOSIT FROM THE ESCROW AGENT AS ITS SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND THEREUPON THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE TERMINATED AND NEITHER SELLER NOR PURCHASER SHALL HAVE ANY FURTHER RIGHTS OR
OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO THE SURVIVING TERMINATION OBLIGATIONS. THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT SHALL BE THE FULL, AGREED AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR PURCHASER’S DEFAULT AND FAILURE TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY, ALL
OTHER CLAIMS TO DAMAGES OR OTHER REMEDIES BEING HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVED BY SELLER. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL LIMIT SELLER’S REMEDIES AT LAW OR IN EQUITY AS TO THE SURVIVING TERMINATION OBLIGATIONS. THE
PARTIES HAVE SET FORTH THEIR INITIALS BELOW TO INDICATE THEIR AGREEMENT WITH THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION.

any such assignment to Seller no later than seven (7) days prior to the Closing Date. Purchaser shall in no event be released from any of its obligations or liabilities hereunder as a result of any assignment. Whenever reference is made in this
Agreement to Seller or Purchaser, such reference shall include the successors and assigns of such party under this Agreement. 
 16.9.
Interpretation. This Agreement shall not be construed more strictly against one party than against the other merely by virtue of the fact that it may have been prepared by counsel for one of the parties, it being recognized that both
Seller and Purchaser have contributed substantially and materially to the preparation of this Agreement. 
 16.10. Entire
Agreement. This Agreement and the Exhibits attached hereto contain the final and entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the sale and purchase of the Property and are intended to be an integration of all prior
negotiations and understandings. Purchaser, Seller and their agents shall not be bound by any terms, conditions, statements, warranties or representations, oral or written, not contained herein. No change or modifications to this Agreement shall be
valid unless the same is in writing and signed by the parties hereto. Each party reserves the right to waive any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement which are for their respective benefit and to consummate the transaction contemplated by
this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement which have not been so waived. Any such waiver must be in writing signed by the party waiving such term or condition of this Agreement. 

16.11. Severability. If any one or more of the provisions hereof shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

  
 - 28 - 

 16.12. Survival. Except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Agreement
(collectively, the “Surviving Termination Obligations”), the provisions of this Agreement and the representations and warranties herein shall not survive after the conveyance of title and payment of the Purchase Price but be merged
therein. 
 16.13. Exhibits. Exhibits A through I attached hereto are incorporated herein by reference. 

16.14. Time. Time is of the essence in the performance of each of the parties’ respective obligations contained herein.

 16.15. Limitation of Liability. The obligations of Seller under this Agreement are binding only on Seller’s assets,
but only to the extent of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000.00), in the aggregate, and shall not be personally binding upon, nor shall any resort be had to the assets of any of the partners, officers, directors, shareholders or
beneficiaries of Seller, or of any partners, officers, directors, shareholders or beneficiaries of any partners of Seller, or of any of Seller’s employees or agents. All documents to be executed by Seller shall also contain the foregoing
exculpation. The provisions of this Section 16.15 shall survive Closing and/or any termination of this Agreement. 
 16.16.
Prevailing Party. Should either party employ an attorney to enforce any of the provisions hereof, (whether before or after Closing, and including any claims or actions involving amounts held in escrow), the non-prevailing party in any
final judgment agrees to pay the other party’s reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in or out of litigation and, if in litigation, trial, appellate, bankruptcy or other proceedings, expended or incurred in
connection therewith, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The provisions of this Section 16.16 shall survive Closing and/or any termination of this Agreement. 

16.17. Escrow Agreement. 

16.17.1. Instructions. Purchaser and Seller each shall promptly deposit a copy of this Agreement executed by such party (or
either of them shall deposit a copy executed by both Purchaser and Seller) with Escrow Agent, and, upon receipt of the Deposit from Purchaser, Escrow Agent shall immediately execute this Agreement where provided below. This Agreement, together with
such further instructions, if any, as the parties shall provide to Escrow Agent by written agreement, shall constitute the escrow instructions. If any requirements relating to the duties or obligations of Escrow Agent hereunder are not acceptable to
Escrow Agent, or if Escrow Agent requires additional instructions, the parties hereto agree to make such deletions, substitutions and additions hereto as counsel for Purchaser and Seller shall mutually approve, which additional instructions shall
not substantially alter the terms of this Agreement unless otherwise expressly agreed to by Seller and Purchaser. 

  
 - 29 - 

 16.17.2. Real Estate Reporting Person. Escrow Agent is hereby designated the
“real estate reporting person” for purposes of Section 6045 of Title 26 of the United States Code and Treasury Regulation 1.6045-4 and any instructions or settlement statement prepared by Escrow Agent shall so provide. Upon the
consummation of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall file Form 1099 information return and send the statement to Seller as required under the aforementioned statute and regulation. Seller and Purchaser shall promptly
furnish their federal tax identification numbers to Escrow Agent and shall otherwise reasonably cooperate with Escrow Agent in connection with Escrow Agent’s duties as real estate reporting person. 

16.18. No Recording. Neither this Agreement nor any memorandum or short form hereof shall be recorded or filed in any public
land or other public records of any jurisdiction, by either party and any attempt to do so may be treated by the other party as a breach of this Agreement. 

16.19. Waiver of Trial by Jury. The respective parties hereto shall and hereby do waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding
or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other on any matters whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this Agreement, or for the enforcement of any remedy under any statute, emergency or otherwise. 

16.20. Mineral Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller specifically retains and reserves for
Seller and Seller’s successors, transferees and/or assigns all mineral rights, ownership and interest in the Property including but not necessarily limited to oil, gas and all other minerals, as defined herein below, that are in and under the
Property together will all associated rights of mineral ownership, royalty ownership and interest. If the mineral estate is subject to existing production or an existing lease, the production, the lease, and the benefits from it are likewise
retained and reserved by Seller. However, Seller agrees that Seller, its successors, transferees, assigns, and/or lessees shall not have the right to enter upon the surface estate of the Property for exploration or retrieving oil, gas or any other
minerals from the Property; however, such restriction against use of the surface estate shall not restrict or prohibit the pooling or unitization of the mineral estate owned by Seller with land other than the Property; or the exploration or
production of the oil, gas and other minerals by means of wells that are drilled or mines that open on land other than the Property but enter or bottom under the Property, provided, however, that these operations in no manner interfere with the
surface or subsurface support of any improvements constructed or to be constructed on the Property. 
 As used herein, the term “oil,
gas and all other minerals” shall be construed in the broadest sense to include all oil, gas, and associated liquid or gaseous hydrocarbons, all sulfur, coal, uranium, lignite, and all other minerals, whether similar or dissimilar to those
named above, regardless of how such mineral may be produced, subject however to the 

  
 - 30 - 

 
restriction on use of the surface estate of the Property. The same term, “oil, gas and all other minerals” shall also include all royalty, overriding royalty, and leasehold interest,
leased or unleased mineral interests, and all other interests of any kind in minerals, all interests in pooled or communized units in which all or any part of the Property is included. 

16.21. Agreement Not to Compete. Each Seller, together with each Seller’s respective parent, subsidiary and affiliated
entities, and David H. Arrington, covenants that it will not compete, directly or indirectly, in any capacity, including without limitation, direct or indirect ownership of an entity, with Purchaser in the ownership, management, or development of a
self-storage business in an area within a three (3) mile radius of each Property, and not to solicit Purchaser’s customers or tenants for storage business or Purchaser’s employees for employment for a period of three (3) years
commencing with the Closing Date. Purchaser may require Seller and the above-referenced parties subject to this provision to execute an agreement not to compete with Purchaser (each an “Agreement not to Compete”) in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit J. 
 16.22. Cooperation with Purchaser’s Auditors and SEC Filing Requirements. 

A. From the date of this Agreement through and including seventy five (75) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall provide to Purchaser
(at Purchaser’s expense) copies of, or shall provide Purchaser access to, the books and records with respect to the ownership, management, maintenance and operation of the Property and shall furnish Purchaser with such additional information
concerning the same as Purchaser shall reasonably request and which is in the possession or control of Seller, or any of its affiliates, agents, or accountants, to enable Purchaser (or Strategic Storage Trust II, Inc., a Maryland
corporation and/or Strategic Storage Growth Trust, Inc, a Maryland corporation or their respective affiliates), to file its or their Form 8-K, if, as and when such filing may be required by the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”). At Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, Seller shall allow Purchaser’s auditor (CohnReznick LLP or any successor auditor selected by Purchaser) to conduct an audit of the income statements of the Property for the
calendar year prior to Closing (or to the date of Closing) and the two (2) prior years, and shall cooperate (at no cost to Seller) with Purchaser’s auditor in the conduct of such audit. In addition, Seller agrees to provide to
Purchaser’s auditor a letter of representation substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L (the “Representation Letter”), and, if requested by such auditor, historical financial statements for the
Property, including income and balance sheet data for the Property, whether required before or after Closing. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) Purchaser or its auditor may audit Seller’s operating statements of the Property, at
Purchaser’s expense, and Seller shall provide such documentation as Purchaser or its auditor may reasonably request in order to complete such audit, (ii) Seller shall furnish to Purchaser such financial and other information as may be
reasonably required by Purchaser to make any required filings with the SEC or other governmental authority; provided, however, that the foregoing obligations of Seller shall be limited to providing such information or documentation as may be in the
possession of, or reasonably obtainable by, Seller, or its agents and accountants, at no cost to Seller, and in the format that Seller (or its affiliates, agents or accountants) have maintained such information, and

  
 - 31 - 

 
(iii) Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the Representation Letter is not intended to expand, extend, supplement or increase the representations and warranties made by Seller to
Purchaser pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Agreement or to expose Seller to any risk of liability to third parties. The provisions of this Section 16.22 shall survive Closing. 

B. Although the Representation Letter is premised upon Seller utilizing generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), Seller
has informed Purchaser that Seller’s books and records are not kept in accordance with GAAP, but rather use the modified cash and accrual basis method of accounting. Inasmuch as the Representation Letter requires that Seller’s books
and records be kept in accordance with GAAP, Purchaser has agreed, at its expense, to have its auditors convert Seller’s books and records to GAAP, prior to Seller executing the Representation Letter, and Seller agrees to so execute the
Representation Letter following the conversion of its books and records to GAAP by Purchaser’s auditors. 
 C. Purchaser
(or Strategic Storage Trust II, Inc., a Maryland corporation and/or Strategic Storage Growth Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation or their respective affiliates), jointly and severally, hereby agree to indemnify, protect, defend and hold Seller,
its partners and their respective members, officers, directors, shareholders, participants, affiliates, employees, representatives, investors, invitees, agents, successors and assigns (each an “Indemnified Party” and collectively,
the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, liabilities, damages, claims, demands, allegations or actions (collectively, “Losses”) suffered by or otherwise asserted
against any Indemnified Party as a result of or otherwise arising in connection with the audit assistance set forth in Section 16.22.A. above, the SEC filings and/or the Representation Letter. 

16.23 Joint and Several Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, each party comprising
Seller shall be jointly and severally liable for all of the obligations, responsibilities and liabilities of the “Seller” under this Agreement, and all representations and warranties of the “Seller” set forth in this Agreement
shall be deemed to have been made jointly and severally by each party comprising Seller. The provisions of this Section 16.23 expressly shall survive the termination or closing of this Agreement.
