FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Extra Space Storage Inc. Closes Acquisition of Self-Storage Properties from AAAAA Rent-A-Space

SALT LAKE CITY, UT, June 26, 2007 - Extra Space Storage Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: EXR) today announced the closing of 12 of the 13 self-storage facilities (the “Properties”) pursuant to its previously announced contribution agreement with various limited partnerships affiliated with AAAAA Rent-A-Space .  The Company expects to close the acquisition of the remaining self-storage facility in mid-July.

Eleven of the Properties are located in the Bay Area of Northern California and two are in Hawaii.  The Properties include approximately 14,700 self-storage units, containing an aggregate of approximately 1.04 million square feet of net rentable space.  The Company will operate the 13 Properties as 10 due to the close proximity of certain Properties.

Commenting on the closing of the acquisition, Kenneth M. Woolley, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company stated, “We are very pleased to begin closing this portfolio of properties.  The facilities in the Bay Area complement our existing properties in the area and enhance our operational and marketing efficiencies.  In addition, the properties in Hawaii give us a presence in a high barrier-to-entry, vibrant self-storage market.”

When completed, the total value of the contribution considerations for the Properties is expected to be approximately $150.2 million, and includes the issuance of approximately $130 million of newly designated Series A Participating Redeemable Preferred Units.   It will also include the assumption of approximately $20 million of third-party debt, of which approximately $12 million is expected to be repaid at close or shortly thereafter.
