Item 8.01.    Other Events
 
In anticipation of a potential future liquidity event, the board of directors of Strategic Storage Trust, Inc. (the "Registrant") approved the termination of the Company's share redemption program (the "SRP") on November 1, 2013, which termination will be effective December 1, 2013. The effect of this termination is that, subsequent to December 1, 2013, holders of shares of the Registrant's common stock will no longer be able to present their shares to the Registrant for redemption. All redemption requests received from stockholders and determined by the Registrant to be in good order on or before December 1, 2013 will be honored in accordance with the terms, conditions, and limitations of the SRP. Any requests for redemption that are not in good order on or before December 1, 2013 will not be processed. Due to the limitations contained in the SRP, the Registrant may not be able to redeem the full amount of these requests, in which event the Registrant would pay the pro rata portion of such requests pursuant to the SRP. The Registrant expects to pay the final redemptions under the SRP on or about December 31, 2013.
