Finder's acting in connection with this tranche of the Offering received aggregate fees of $17,750.

A portion of the proceeds of this tranche of the Offering will be used to fund, in part, the previously announced acquisition of 2 self storage stores in Winnipeg Manitoba (see StorageVault's October 16, 2015 and November 20, 2015 news releases), the acquisition of a Brampton Ontario self storage store (see StorageVault's December 9, 2015 news release; collectively, the Winnipeg and Brampton acquisitions are the "Future Acquisitions"), other potential future acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.
