New York City renters have distinctive demand drivers that manifest themselves in unique interactions with the product ▪ NYC customers rent for much longer, with median lengths of stay approximately three months greater than the rest of the portfolio The unit mix for stores in NYC is drastically different, with average unit sizes of 34 square feet, 66% smaller than the same-store portfolio Customer behaviors for NYC renters are different, as payments are made in cash significantly more frequently than around the rest of the country ▪ ▪

Manhattan is a unique market, with different demand characteristics and demographics from the other boroughs ▪ We have one store in Manhattan, located in Midtown on West 55th Street An extremely small average unit size of 26.5 SF is distinctive of Manhattan storage, as demand tends to be from customers looking to supplement their living space ▪ ▪For our Manhattan store, we offer our Storage Valet service to pick up a customer’s goods and assist them with the move-in process

New York City compares extremely favorably to the top 12 MSAs with the lowest SF per capita of any major market ▪Supply per capita in all three boroughs is less than half the national average as overall supply remains low despite deliveries from the recent development cycle ▪The supply outlook in the boroughs looks to be muted going forward as recent legislative changes that restrict self-storage from development in the IBZ industrial zones and exclude storage from eligibility for tax abatements under the ICAP program have increased barriers to entry Source: 2021 Self-Storage Almanac & CUBE internal market research

Performance in the New York City boroughs has remained steady throughout this development cycle ▪ Over the last three years, our same-store portfolio in New York City has continued to post positive revenue growth while competing with the recent inflow of new supply We expect that changes to the ICAP legislation from 2020 which specifically exclude self-storage from eligibility for the tax abatement on improvements will sharply curtail new self-storage development projects in the future Strong supply-demand dynamics should allow recent development deliveries to be absorbed and support long-term performance trends ▪ ▪ 1 1 Source: CUBE internal market research 1.

Performance in the boroughs has accelerated with significant increases in demand muting the impact of new supply ▪ New York City has proven resilient through the pandemic, with strong demand trends helping to grow occupancy through the first quarter High levels of demand have accelerated the lease-up of recently opened development projects, reducing some of the shorter-term pressure from new supply New York City continues to showcase its resilience compared to other markets that have seen similar levels of new supply ▪ ▪
