Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On May 25, 2018, Extra Space Storage Inc. (the “Company”) and Extra Space Storage LP (the “Operating Partnership”) entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with the various purchasers named therein (the “Purchasers”).

The Note Purchase Agreement provides for the private placement by the Operating Partnership of $300 million of 4.39% Senior Notes, due July 17, 2028 (the “Notes”). The Notes are expected to be issued on July 17, 2018, subject to customary closing conditions, at which time the Purchasers will disburse the funds to the Operating Partnership. Upon issuance, the Notes will pay interest semiannually on the 17^th day of January and July in each year until their maturity.

The Operating Partnership may prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Notes, in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes in the case of a partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid plus a Make-Whole Amount (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement).

The Note Purchase Agreement contains a number of customary financial covenants, including, without limitation, a maximum consolidated leverage ratio, minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, maximum secured debt ratio and maximum unencumbered leverage ratio. The financial covenants in the Note Purchase Agreement are substantially similar to the financial covenants in the Operating Partnership’s existing Credit Agreement, dated October 16, 2016, by and among the Operating Partnership, the Company, U.S. Bank National Association, as administrative agent, certain other financial institutions acting as syndication agents, documentation agents, senior management agents and lead arrangers and book runners, and certain lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”).

Subject to the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes, upon certain events of default, including, but not limited to, (i) a default in the payment of any principal, Make-Whole Amount or interest under the Notes, (ii) a default in the performance of covenants in the Note Purchase Agreement, the Notes and the related guaranty, (iii) a default in the payment of certain other indebtedness of the Operating Partnership, the Company or their subsidiaries that are guarantors under the Credit Agreement, and (iv) bankruptcy events related to the Operating Partnership, the Company and their subsidiaries that are guarantors under the Credit Agreement, the principal and accrued and unpaid interest and the Make-Whole Amount on the outstanding Notes will become due and payable at the option of the Purchasers.

The Operating Partnership’s obligations under the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and subsidiaries of the Company that are guarantors under the Credit Agreement.

The proceeds from the issuance of the Notes will be used by the Operating Partnership to refinance existing indebtedness and for general corporate purposes. The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. The Operating Partnership offered and sold the Notes in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

The above summary of the Note Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Note Purchase Agreement. A copy of the Note Purchase Agreement, including the form of the Notes, is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. Additionally, on May 31, 2018, the Company issued a press release related to the Operating Partnership’s entry into the Note Purchase Agreement. A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
