On February 15, 2024, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of National Storage Affiliates Trust (the “Company”) increased the size of the Board from ten trustees to eleven trustees and elected Lisa R. Cohn, 54, to serve as a member of the Board, effective February 15, 2024 (the “Effective Date”). In addition, the Board appointed Ms. Cohn to serve on its compensation, nominating and corporate governance committee beginning on, and subject to, Ms. Cohn’s reelection to the Board at the Company’s 2024 annual shareholder meeting.
As of the Effective Date, the Company entered into an indemnification agreement with Ms. Cohn that is substantially similar to the indemnification agreements the Company has entered into with the other members of the Board.

Other than the indemnification agreement, there is no arrangement or understanding between Ms. Cohn and any other persons pursuant to which Ms. Cohn was elected to serve on the Board or other related party transactions between the Company and Ms. Cohn that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
