Resolutions 1 to 15 were ordinary resolutions, requiring more than 50 per cent. of shareholders' votes to be cast in favour of the resolutions. Resolutions 16 to 20 were special resolutions, requiring at least 75 per cent. of shareholders' votes to be cast in favour of the resolutions.

Where shareholders appointed the Chairman of the meeting as their proxy with discretion as to voting, their votes were cast in favour of the resolutions and their shares have been included in the "votes for" column.

A "vote withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the percentages of votes cast for and against a resolution.

The current issued capital of Safestore Holdings plc is 218,452,800 ordinary shares.

In accordance with LR 9.6.2, copies of the resolutions passed as special business have been submitted to the Financial Conduct Authority's National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism
