Loan Agreement and Guarantee
On December 20, 2018, certain wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Subsidiaries”) of
Global Self Storage, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a revolving credit loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) between the Subsidiaries and TCF National Bank (the “Lender”). Under the Loan Agreement, the Subsidiaries are borrowing from the Lender in
the principal amount of up to $10 million pursuant to a promissory note (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note bears an interest rate equal to 3.00% over the One Month U.S. Dollar London Inter-Bank Offered Rate and is due to mature on December
20, 2021. The obligations under the Loan Agreement are secured by certain real estate assets owned by the Subsidiaries.
The Company entered into a guaranty of payment on December 20, 2018 (the “Guaranty,”
and together with the Loan Agreement, the Promissory Note and related instruments, the “Loan Documents”) to guarantee the payment to Lender of certain obligations of the Subsidiaries under the Loan Agreement.
The Loan Documents require the Subsidiaries and the Company to comply with certain
covenants, including, among others, customary financial covenants. The Lender may accelerate amounts outstanding under the Loan Documents upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement) including, but not limited to,
the failure to pay amounts due to the Lender or commencement of bankruptcy proceedings.
The Company and the Subsidiaries are paying customary fees and expenses in connection
with their entry into the Loan Documents.
There is no material relationship between the Company, the Subsidiaries or their
affiliates and the Lender, other than in respect of the Loan Documents.
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by the full terms and conditions of the Guaranty and the Loan
Agreement, filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of the

hereto. The information contained in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of
