MINI Mobile Mini Inc

Email sent to WSC Employees by Bradley Soultz, President and Chief Executive Officer, on March 2, 2020

Colleagues –

Earlier this morning, we made the exciting announcement that WillScot will be combining with Mobile Mini Inc. to create a North American leader in modular space and portable storage. Today is an exciting day for the entire WillScot family.

Many of you are likely already familiar with Mobile Mini – a leading provider of secure storage and specialty containment solutions. But what you may not know is that Mobile Mini shares many of our core values, including our deep commitment to customer service and employee empowerment. I have had the pleasure of working with Mobile Mini’s Chief Executive Officer Kelly Williams and his team, in the course of discussing this combination, and my engagement with him has only heightened my enthusiasm for this merger. Following the close of the transaction, which we expect to occur in the third quarter of this year, I am looking forward to partnering more closely with the Mobile Mini team. In this spirit, our new management team will incorporate leaders from both organizations including the following new roles:

Importantly for you, please know that today’s announcement is just the first step in a process. Until close, we remain two separate and independent companies and your daily responsibilities and management structures will remain the same. Additionally, we ask that you please not discuss your work with Mobile Mini employees, unless it is in the normal course of business.

For more information, I encourage you to join our town hall meeting at 12:00 PM ET.

We are committed to transparency and will provide you with updates as there is news to share. We may not have all the answers now, but the Executive Team and I will do our best to address them as we move through this process.

As always, thank you for your continued commitment and focus as we take this important step to grow our company. Your dedication continues to be instrumental in positioning WillScot for further growth.

Sincerely,

Bradley Soultz

President and Chief Executive Officer

This communication contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are subject to risks and uncertainties and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “forecasts,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “shall,” “continue,” “outlook” and variations of these words and similar expressions (or the negative thereof) identify forward-looking statements, which are generally not historical in nature. Certain of these forward-looking statements relate to the proposed business combination (the “Proposed Transaction”) involving WillScot and Mobile Mini, including: expected scale; operating efficiency; stockholder, employee and customer benefits; key assumptions; timing of closing; the amount and timing of revenue and expense synergies; future financial benefits and operating results; and integration spend, which reflects management’s beliefs, expectations and objectives as of the date hereof. Achievement of the expressed beliefs, expectations and objectives is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those beliefs, expectations or objectives. These forward-looking statements are only estimates, assumptions and projections, and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of WillScot and Mobile Mini.

Important Proposed Transaction-related factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: the risk that expected revenue, expense and other synergies from the Proposed Transaction may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; the parties are unable to successfully implement their integration strategies; the inherent uncertainty associated with financial or other projections; failure of the parties to satisfy the closing conditions in the merger agreement in a timely manner or at all, including stockholder and regulatory approvals; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement; the possibility that the Proposed Transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; and disruptions to the parties’ businesses and financial condition as a result of the announcement and pendency of the Proposed Transaction. Other important factors include: the parties’ ability to manage growth and execute their business plan; their estimates of the size of the markets for their products; the rate and degree of market acceptance of their products; the success of other competing modular space and portable storage solutions that exist or may become available; rising costs adversely affecting their profitability (including cost increases resulting from tariffs); general economic and market conditions impacting demand for their products and services; the value of WillScot shares to be issued in the Proposed Transaction; the parties’ capital structure, levels of indebtedness and availability of credit; expected financing transactions undertaken in connection with the Proposed Transaction; third party contracts containing consent and/or other provisions that may be triggered by the Proposed Transaction; the ability to retain and hire key personnel and uncertainties arising from leadership changes; the response of business partners as a result of the announcement and pendency of the Proposed Transaction; the diversion of management attention from business operations to the Proposed Transaction; the ability to implement and maintain an effective system of internal controls; potential litigation and regulatory matters involving the combined company; implementation of tax reform; the intended qualification of the Proposed Transaction as a tax-free reorganization; the changes in political conditions in the U.S. and other countries in which the parties operate, including U.S. trade policies or the U.K.’s withdrawal from the European Union; and such other risks and uncertainties described in the periodic reports WillScot and Mobile Mini file with the SEC from time to time including WillScot’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, which was filed with the SEC on March 15, 2019, WillScot’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, which will be filed with the SEC today and Mobile Mini’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, which was filed with the SEC on February 3, 2020, each of which are or will be available through the SEC’s EDGAR system at www.sec.gov.

Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements as the information in this communication speaks only as of March 2, 2020 or such earlier date as specified herein. WillScot and Mobile Mini disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Investors should not assume that any lack of update to a previously issued “forward-looking statement” constitutes a reaffirmation of that statement. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to WillScot, Mobile Mini or any person acting on behalf of either party are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements referenced above.
