                     Sovran Acquisition Limited Partnership
                    Pro Forma Combined Financial Information


The following unaudited Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet as of June 30, 1998 and
unaudited Pro Forma  Combined  Statement of Operations  for the six months ended
June 30,  1998 and the year ended  December  31,  1997,  have been  prepared  to
reflect the Operating  Partnership's  acquisition of self storage facilities and
the  adjustments  described in the  accompanying  notes.  The pro forma combined
financial  information is based on the historical financial statements of Sovran
Self Storage,  Inc. included in (i.) the Company's 10-Q for the six months ended
June 30, 1998,  (ii) the  Company's  10-K for the year ended  December 31, 1997,
(iii) the historical  summaries of combined  gross revenue and direct  operating
expenses  included in the Company's 8-K Reports dated July 6, 1998,  June,  1998
and 8-K/A Report dated April 17, 1998, (iv) the other  financial  information in
the  Company's  1997  Annual  Report  to  Shareholders  and  (v)  the  Operating
Partnership's  General Form for Registration of Securities Form 1010, and should
be read in conjunction  with those financial  statements and notes thereto.  The
Pro Forma Combined  Balance Sheet was prepared as if the 8 facilities  that were
purchased  after  June 30,  1998,  were  acquired  at that  date.  The Pro Forma
Combined  Statements  of  Operations  were  prepared  as if the 44 self  storage
facilities  acquired  in  1997  and the 44  facilities  acquired  in  1998  were
purchased at the beginning of 1997. The combined pro forma financial information
is not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations
which actually would have occurred if such  transactions had been consummated on
the  dates   described,   nor  does  it  purport  to  represent   the  Operating
Partnership's future financial position or results of operations.
