                  This Amendment No. 3 is filed by Security Capital U.S.
         Realty ("Security Capital U.S. Realty"), a corporation orga-
         nized and existing under the laws of Luxembourg, and by Secu-
         rity Capital Holdings S.A. ("Holdings"), a corporation orga-
         nized and existing under the laws of Luxembourg and a wholly
         owned subsidiary of Security Capital U.S. Realty (together with
         Security Capital U.S. Realty, "USRealty"), and hereby amends
         the Schedule 13D ("Schedule 13D") originally filed on March 8,
         1996, as amended by Amendment No. 1 ("Amendment No. 1 to Sched-
         ule 13D") filed on March 21, 1996 and Amendment No. 2 ("Amend-
         ment No. 2 to Schedule 13D") filed on July 1, 1996.  This
         Amendment No. 3 relates to shares of common stock, par value
         $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of Storage USA, Inc., a Ten-
         nessee corporation ("Storage").  Capitalized terms used herein
         without definition shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in
         Schedule 13D, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D and
         Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D.

                  On July 1, 1996, USRealty purchased in stock market
         transactions 142,400 shares of Common Stock for a purchase
         price of $32.56 per share (including commissions).  These funds
         were obtained from cash on hand and from drawdowns under the
         Facility Agreement.

                  On July 1, 1996 Storage and USRealty entered into
         Amendment No. 1 (the "Amendment No. 1") to the Stock Purchase
         Agreement.  Amendment No. 1 provided for USRealty's purchase of
         1,916,933 Shares at a price of $31.30 per Share at a second
         closing (the "Second Closing") under the Stock Purchase Agree-
         ment to be held on July 8, 1996.  Amendment No. 1 provides that
         Storage has the right to require USRealty to purchase ad-
         ditional Shares at subsequent closings, at a price of $31.30
         per Share, with the number of Shares purchased at each such
         subsequent closing determined by Storage, so long as the ag-
         gregate purchase price paid for the Shares purchased at each
         such subsequent closing is equal to or greater than $15 mil-
         lion.  Amendment No. 1 further provides that if the Remaining
         Equity Commitment on September 1, 1996 exceeds zero, USRealty
         has the right, subject to satisfaction or waiver of certain
         conditions, to purchase all Shares at a price of $31.30 per
         Share in a single closing so that the Remaining Equity Commit-
         ment equals zero by September 30, 1996.  Pursuant to Amendment
         No. 1, Storage has agreed that until the 20% Termination Date
         it will provide USRealty with advance notice of its intention
         to make any material public releases or announcements concern-
         ing Storage or its affiliates, if possible, at least one busi-
         ness day prior to such release or announcement.  A copy of
         Amendment No. 1 is attached hereto as Exhibit 6 and is specifi-
         cally incorporated herein by reference and the description of




                                       -4-<PAGE>







         such Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to
         such Amendment.

                  On July 8, 1996, USRealty purchased 1,916,933 Shares
         (the "Second Shares") at a price of $31.30 per Share at the
         Second Closing.  The aggregate price paid to Storage for the
         Second Shares was $60,000,002.90.  Security Capital U.S. Realty
         advanced to Holdings the funds necessary to purchase the Second
         Shares as required by the Stock Purchase Agreement.  These
         funds were obtained by USRealty from proceeds of a European
         public offering of $250 million of equity securities which
         closed on July 2, 1996.

                        (b)  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof
                   and subject to satisfaction or waiver of the appli-
                   cable conditions set forth in Sections 7.2 and 7.3,
                   from time to time following the Second Closing, the
                   Company shall have the right to require Buyer to pur-
                   chase and acquire (and the Advancing Party to advance
                   sufficient funds for such purchase) from the Company,
                   and the Company will sell, convey, assign, transfer
                   and deliver to Buyer, additional shares of Company
                   Common Stock (such purchases together with the pur-
                   chases effected at the Second Closing, the "Subse-
                   quent Purchases"), the number of which shares of Com-
                   pany Common Stock shall be determined by the Company;
                   provided, however, that each Subsequent Purchase
                   other than the purchase effected at the Second Clos-
                   ing shall be made at the Per Share Purchase Price
                   and, except with respect to the purchase effected at
                   the Second Closing, shall consist of a sufficient
                   number of shares of Company Common Stock so that each
                   such Subsequent Purchase Price is equal to or greater
                   than $15 million, and provided further that the Sub-
                   sequent Purchase Price to be paid at any Closing is
                   not greater than the Remaining Equity Commitment im-
                   mediately prior to such Closing.  In no event shall
                   Buyer be required to purchase shares of Company Com-
                   mon Stock pursuant hereto so that it shall have ex-
                   pended more than the Total Equity Commitment.  Sub-
                   ject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Closing
                   of a Subsequent Purchase other than the Second Clos-
                   ing shall be on the first Business Day following the
                   19th day of the month following any month in which
                   the Company provides Buyer with written notice of its
                   desire to effect a Closing in the following month, if
                   such written notice is given to Buyer at least five
                   Business Days prior to the end of such preceding
                   month.

                        (c)  If the Remaining Equity Commitment on Sep-
                   tember 1, 1996 is greater than zero, then Buyer shall
                   have the right, subject to the satisfaction or waiver
                   of the applicable conditions set forth in Sections
                   7.2, 7.3 and 7.4, to make a single Subsequent Pur-
                   chase from the Company of a sufficient number of
                   shares of Company Common Stock at the Per Share Pur-
                   chase Price so that the Remaining Equity Commitment
                   equals zero by September 30, 1996, or as soon there-
                   after as all conditions to Buyer's obligation to ef-
                   fect any purchase of Company Common Stock hereunder
                   shall have been satisfied or waived.
