Pursuant to an Acquisition Agreement, dated as of July 1, 1996, IDS1, IDS2
and IDS3 (the "Partnerships") will hold meetings of limited partners to vote
upon approval of the Partnerships being merged with and into Shurgard (the
"Mergers"). If a Partnership's Merger is approved by the requisite vote of the
Unitholders under the Partnership agreement, each outstanding Unit of the
Partnership (other than those owned by Shurgard) will be converted into the
right to receive the number of shares of Class A Common Stock of Shurgard
determined in the manner provided in the Agreement.
It is currently anticipated that notice of the meetings of limited partners
of the Partnerships to be held to consider the Mergers will be mailed to limited
partners in early October and that the meetings will be held in November. The
timing of the notice and the meetings, however, will be subject, among other
things, to the timing of the effectiveness of a registration statement to be
filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission covering the Shurgard Class A
Common Stock proposed to be issued in the Mergers. The offer of the Class A
Common Stock to be issued in the Mergers will be made only by means of a
prospectus that complies with the applicable provisions of law.
