Good afternoon. I have a question. I can be a natural person (not a legal entity) being a supplier of a storage facility and getting a reward for it? ( page №5 of white paper "Storage provider rewards")

The initial capacity depends on the total users that will host their drive space. Initially, we'll setup our own clusters to support the network during the first weeks, thus space can be added by running another host. This can be done very quickly. The goal is that the network is supported by DigiPulse hosts, that get payed (receive rewards) for hosting data. Malfunctions are avoid by using mirrors of every file, so even a 50% fallout of hosts would still make it possible to recover the files. (A handful of hosts receive the full shredded parts, all others receive minor mirrored parts of the files). Depending on the setup the user selects to release the vault, the blockchain will keep AES-256-CBC encrypted keys. The vaults themselves are also AES-256 encoded, and the user can choose to encrypt the files he uploads as well.

As stated in the white paper, anyone can participate and provide storage space. They make use of the architecture that can also be found in Storj, and that project is not specifically aiming at corporate participants. The whole point of healthy decentralization when it comes to file storage is to let everyone participate.
