This PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of June 20, 2005, is by and among Extra Space Storage Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”) and the investors named on the signature pages hereto (each, a “Subscriber” and collectively, the “Subscribers”).

 

WHEREAS, the Company and each Subscriber is executing and delivering this Agreement in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act”), and Regulation D as promulgated thereunder;

 

WHEREAS, each Subscriber wishes to purchase, and the Company wishes to sell, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, that aggregate number of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”), set forth on Subscriber’s signature page hereto (which aggregate amount for all Subscribers together shall be 6,200,000 shares of Common Stock) for the aggregate purchase price set forth on Subscriber’s signature page hereto (which aggregate amount for all Subscribers together shall be $83,514,000); and

 

WHEREAS, contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the parties hereto are executing and delivering a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights with respect to the Common Stock sold hereby under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this letter, each Subscriber hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company such number of shares of Common Stock as is set forth on the signature page of this letter at a price equal to $13.47 per share (the “Purchase Price”). The Subscribers agree to deliver to the Company on the closing date (the “Closing Date”) designated by the Company (as set forth in Paragraph 6 hereof), upon receipt of the stock certificates representing the Common Stock, the Purchase Price by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to an account specified by the Company in writing.

 

2. Each Subscriber understands and agrees that the Common Stock is being offered in a transaction not involving any public offering within the United States within the meaning of the Securities Act, and that the Common Stock has not been registered under the Securities Act and, unless so registered, may not be resold except as permitted in the following sentence. Each Subscriber agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of each account for which it acquires any Common Stock, that, if in the future it decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer such Common Stock, such Common Stock may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (a) to the Company or a subsidiary thereof, (b) pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared and is effective under the Securities Act or (c) pursuant to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, subject in each of the foregoing cases to any requirement of law that the disposition of Subscriber’s property or the property of such investor account or accounts be at all times within Subscriber’s or their control and subject to compliance


with any applicable state securities laws. Each Subscriber understands that the registrar and transfer agent for the Common Stock will not be required to accept for registration of transfer any Common Stock, except upon presentation of evidence satisfactory to the Company and the transfer agent that, unless such Common Stock is already registered under the Securities Act, an exemption to the registration requirement under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder have been complied with. Each Subscriber further understands that any certificates representing Common Stock acquired by it will bear a legend reflecting the substance of this paragraph. Each Subscriber acknowledges, on its own behalf and on behalf of any investor account for which it is purchasing the Common Stock, that the Company reserves the right to restrict any offer, sale or other transfer of the Common Stock pursuant to clause (c) above and to require the completion, execution and delivery of (i) a letter from the transferee substantially in the form of the Transferee’s Letter attached hereto as Appendix A and (ii) an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that the proposed transfer does not require registration under the Securities Act.

Such Subscriber acknowledges that such Subscriber and such Subscriber’s advisor(s), if any, have had the right to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company and its officers and directors, and to obtain such information concerning the terms and conditions of this offering of the Common Stock, as such Subscriber and such Subscriber’s advisor(s), if any, deem necessary to verify the accuracy of any information that such Subscriber deems relevant to making an investment in the Common Stock.

3.10 Such Subscriber consents to the placement of a legend on the certificate evidencing the Common Stock, stating that such Common Stock has not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities or “blue sky” laws and setting forth or referring to the restrictions on transferability and sale thereof. Such Subscriber is aware that the Company will make a notation in its appropriate records with respect to the restrictions on the transferability of such Common Stock.

reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies. Such Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the Company has not made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 4.

 

3.12 The execution, delivery and performance by such Subscriber of the Agreements and the consummation by such Subscriber of the transactions contemplated herein and therein will not conflict with or constitute a material breach of, or default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of such Subscriber pursuant to any contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other instrument or agreement to which such Subscriber is a party or by which it or any of them may be bound, or to which any of the property or assets of such Subscriber is subject, nor will any such action result in any violation of the provisions of the articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents of such Subscriber or any applicable law, administrative regulation or administrative or court decree.

 

3.13 Such Subscriber is not an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Company or acting on behalf of an affiliate of the Company.

 

3.14 Such Subscriber is not and for so long as it holds Common Stock will not be (i) an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA), whether or not it is subject to Title I of ERISA, including without limitation governmental and non-U.S. plans, (ii) a plan described in Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), (iii) an entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan’s investment in such entity (including but not limited to an insurance company general account), or (iv) an entity that otherwise constitutes a “benefit plan investor” within the meaning of the DOL Regulation Section 2510.3-101 (29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101) (any of the foregoing, a “Benefit Plan Investor”).

 

3.15 Such Subscriber acknowledges that the Common Stock may not be purchased by or otherwise acquired by any Benefit Plan Investor.

 

3.16 Such Subscriber (and any investor account for which such Subscriber is purchasing Common Stock pursuant hereto) agrees that the Company may rely, and shall be protected in acting upon, any papers or other documents which may be submitted to any of them in connection with the sale and subsequent transfers of the Common Stock and which are reasonably believed by them to be genuine and reasonably appear to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.
