CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Oct. 19, 2016) - STORAGEVAULT CANADA INC.
("StorageVault") (TSX VENTURE:SVI) is pleased to announce that, further to its July 4, 2016
news release, it has completed the $22,000,000 acquisition (the "Acquisition") of all of the self storage
assets, property and business used in the operation of one Calgary, Alberta area self storage store owned by the vendor (the
"Vendor"). The Acquisition is an arm's length transaction.
The purchase price for the Acquisition in the amount of $22,000,000, subject to adjustments, was paid by the issuance of
12,500,000 common shares of StorageVault ("Common Shares") at an aggregate deemed price of $10,000,000 with the
remainder being financed with first mortgage financing. The Common Shares are subject to a hold period that expires on
February 18, 2017. The Alberta assets will be StorageVault's sixth location in the Alberta market.
Access Lease and Access Agreements
In conjunction with the closing of the Acquisition, StorageVault, as landlord, and Access Self Storage Inc.
("Access"), a major shareholder of StorageVault, as tenant, executed a four year lease (the "Access
Lease") in respect of the entire store.
In addition, in place of the share purchase options and financing by Access announced in the July 4 news release, Access
entered into a share conveyance agreement (the "Share Conveyance Agreement") with the Vendor pursuant to which
Access purchased 10,500,000 of the Common Shares issued to the Vendor pursuant to the Acquisition for an aggregate purchase price
of $8,400,000. The remaining 2,000,000 Common Shares issued to the Vendor were sold to a third party with an option for the
Vendor to repurchase these 2,000,000 Common Shares. In the event that the Vendor repurchases these Common Shares pursuant to
the option, Access will also have a right of first negotiation from the Vendor with respect to these 2,000,000 Common Shares.
