The vote of the Limited Partners holding a majority of the Units in the Fund is sought for the approval of ALL of the following items of this proposal:

(1) Approval of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of July 7, 2014, as amended (the “Agreement”), by and among the Fund and Strategic Storage Opportunities, LLC; and the approval of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, including the sale of up to all of the Properties of the Fund, on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Agreement;

(2) If all of the Properties are sold, approval of a distribution to Limited Partners of an amount currently estimated to be approximately $575 per Unit following the sale of all of the Properties from the $16,840,000 aggregate gross purchase price for the Properties after payment of Fund’s expenses and fees, any adjustments as set forth in the Agreement, the amount that is distributable to the General Partners of the Fund for their interest in the Fund, and General Partners fees payable under the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Fund;

(3) If less than all of the Properties are sold, or higher than currently anticipated outside fees and expenses are incurred in connection with the Agreement, approval of a proportionate reduction of the per Unit distributable amount equal to the allocable amount of the purchase price of any unsold Properties and the amount of such excess fees and expenses;

All other amounts payable to the General Partners in Section 8(a)

hereof and Section 15 shall be treated as the General Partners' distributive share of partnership income pursuant to Section
