designate, the principal sum of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) or so much thereof as shall be advanced hereunder, together with interest thereon, as set forth in this Note. 
  
 Interest on the principal balance of this Note from time to time outstanding shall accrue from the date of this Note at an
annual rate of fifteen percent (15%), subject to the terms of this Note below. 
  
 Interest only shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first (1st) day of each
month beginning with the first day of June, 2004. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred and sixty (360) day year and shall be paid for the actual number of days on which principal advanced to Payor under this Note is
outstanding. 
  
 The entire outstanding principal balance of this
Note, together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal balance of this Note, shall be due and payable on the earlier of (i) two business days after the date on which Payor or its successor or parent entity following a
restructuring and/or recapitalization of Payor (to be conducted as and when determined by the Payor, in its sole discretion), shall have completed and received funds from the issuance of shares of its common stock in the firm commitment underwritten
initial public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or (ii) November 4, 2004 (such date being the “Maturity Date”). 
  
 In the event that any payment due hereunder is not paid when due or upon a
default under that certain Guaranty Agreement (the “Guaranty”) by Kenneth M. Woolley in favor of Payee of even date herewith (each such event a “Default”), and if such Default is not cured within 30 days following such Default,
Payee may, at its option, declare immediately due and payable the entire outstanding balance of principal and accrued interest under this Note. If this Note is so accelerated or any amounts due hereunder are not paid on the Maturity Date, all
amounts due hereunder shall, after such acceleration or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, bear interest at an annual rate equal to eighteen percent (18%), compounded monthly, until paid. 
  
 In addition, it shall be a “Default” under this Note if, at any
time, the sum of all of Payor’s Debt (as defined below) exceeds seventy-five percent (75%) of Payor’s Value (as defined below). “Payor’s Debt” means all indebtedness of Payor or indebtedness for which Payor may otherwise be
liable, excluding debt incurred in the ordinary course of business having a term of less than six (6) months, all as reasonably determined by Payee. “Payor’s Value” means the sum of the value of all assets of Payor, as reasonably
determined by Payee. Payor shall provide Payee with internally prepared financial statements of Payor certified by the chief 

  

 
financial officer of Payor within five (5) business days following request by Payee, which financial statements shall be in form satisfactory to Payee, and
which shall be accompanied by such information as is requested by Payee to determine compliance with the foregoing covenant. 
  
 This Note may be prepaid in whole or in part at the election of the Payor prior the Maturity Date without penalty or premium. 
  
 Any notice required or permitted to be delivered hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be deemed to be delivered on the earlier of (i) the date received, or (ii) the date of delivery, refusal, or nondelivery indicated on the return receipt, if deposited in a United States Postal Service depository, postage prepaid,
sent registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the party to receive the same at the address of such party set forth in the first paragraph of this Note, or at such other address as may be designated in a notice delivered
or mailed as herein provided. 
  
 Payor agrees to pay all charges
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) of Payee in connection with the collection and/or enforcement of this Note or the Guaranty or in protecting or preserving any security for this Note, whether or not
suit is brought against Payor. 
  
 The failure of the Payee at any
time to exercise any option or right hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of the Payee’s right to exercise such option or right at any other time. The Payee shall have the right to transfer all or any portion of its interest in this Note to
any affiliate of Payee without the consent of Payor. All other right to transfer all or any portion of this Note shall require the written consent of Payor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
  
 The Payor hereby waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and all other
suretyship defenses generally and agrees that (i) any renewal, extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, (ii) any modification, supplement or alteration of any of the Payor’s obligations undertaken in connection
with this Note, or (iii) any addition or release of any person or entity primarily or secondarily liable, may be effected without notice to the Payor and without releasing the Payor from any liability hereunder. 
  
 This Note shall be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with
the laws of the State of Delaware. If any provision of this Note is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Note shall remain in full force and effect. If the payment of any interest due
hereunder would subject the Payee to any penalty under applicable law, then the payments due hereunder shall be automatically reduced to what they would be at the highest rate authorized under applicable laws. 
  
 This Note shall have the effect of an instrument under seal.

 RECITALS

  
 WHEREAS, the Contributors own certain rights and
interests in and to the entities (each and “ESS Entity” and collectively, the “ESS Entities”) listed on Schedule A attached to this Agreement as members of the ESS Entities and otherwise (such
rights and interests, as more folly described in this Agreement and on Schedule A attached to this Agreement, together with all of the rights and interests of the Contributors to participate in or benefit from the ownership, profits and/or
losses of the ESS Entities, whether as a member of the relevant ESS Entity or otherwise are collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “Contributed Interests”); 
  
 WHEREAS, the Operating Partnership and Extra Space Storage, Inc., a Maryland corporation and the ultimate parent of
the Operating Partnership (the “REIT”), are in the process of conducting a reorganization in which, among other things, the Operating Partnership will, directly and through its wholly owned subsidiaries, acquire interests in certain
self storage facilities from third parties and joint venture partners of its affiliates (such reorganization and all transactions related thereto the “Formation Transactions”); 
  
 WHEREAS, immediately prior to the completion of the Formation
Transactions, the REIT will conduct an underwritten initial public offering of its shares of common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “IPO”); and 

 
 WHEREAS, subject to the completion of the Formation Transactions
and the IPO, the Contributors desire to contribute all of their right, title and interest in and to the Contributed Interests, free and clear of all liens, security interests, prior assignments or conveyances, conditions, restriction, special
assessments, easements, reservations, restrictions, and encumbrances whatsoever and all other defects or imperfections in title, except as may be contained in the operating agreements or other formation or charter documents governing the ESS
Entities (collectively, “Encumbrances”), to the Operating Partnership in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions, and for the consideration, specified in this Agreement; 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and
agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows: 
  
 1. Contribution of Contributed Interests; Effective Date.
The Contributors agree to contribute, transfer, convey and assign to the Operating Partnership, and the Operating Partnership agrees to accept the contribution, transfer, conveyance and assignment of, the Contributed Interests, pursuant to the
terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. On the Closing Date (as defined in Section 7A of this Agreement), the Contributors shall contribute, transfer, convey and assign to the Operating Partnership the Contributed Interests free and clear
of all Encumbrances. 
  

 2. Contributed Interests Description. The Contributed Interests shall include all of the
rights and interests of the Contributors in and to the ESS Entities of any nature whatsoever, in each case and with respect to each individual ESS Entity, as more fully described on Schedule A attached to this Agreement and
incorporated herein by this reference. 
  
 3.
Consideration. The aggregate consideration for which the Contributors agree to contribute, transfer, convey and assign the Contributed Interests to the Operating Partnership is agreed to have an aggregate value of One Million Three
Hundred Fifty Thousand and Fifty-Four Dollars and Ninety Cents ($1,350,054.90) (the “Aggregate Consideration Value”). The Aggregate Consideration Value is allocable among the Contributors and the Contributed Interests being
contributed by each Contributor as set forth on Schedule B to this Agreement. On the Closing Date, the Aggregate Consideration Value shall be paid by the Operating Partnership by delivering a number of common limited partnership units of the
Operating Partnership (each such unit an “OP Unit”) to each Contributor having a value equal to the applicable Contributor’s pro rata share of the Aggregate Consideration Value indicated on Schedule B to this Agreement, with
each individual OP Unit having a value equal to the initial public offering price of one share of common stock of the REIT issued in the IPO. The aggregate number of OP Units to be issued to the Contributors pursuant to the preceding sentence shall
be referred in this Agreement as the “OP Unit Consideration” and shall be issued in the names of or recorded in the names of the Contributors. The transfer of the OP Unit Consideration to the Contributors shall be evidenced
by either an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the agreement of limited partnership of the Operating Partnership (the “OP Agreement”) or by the issuance of physical certificates representing such OP Units (the
“Certificates”) in either case, as determined by the Operating Partnership. Any such Amendment or the form of any such certificate shall be subject to the prior review and approval of the Contributors. The parties to this Agreement
shall take such additional actions and execute such additional documentation as may be required by the OP Agreement in order to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
  
 4. Tax Treatment as Contribution. The contribution, transfer, conveyance and assignment effectuated pursuant
to this Agreement for the OP Unit Consideration shall be treated as a transaction in “assets-over” form pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.708-1 (c)(3). The parties are not aware of any reason that any Contributor’s transfer of
any portion of Contributors’ Contributed Interests would be treated as a taxable sale pursuant to Section 707 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or the Treasury Regulations thereunder, but if any
such transfer is so treated (any such Contributor referred to as a “Selling Member,” and the portion of the interest sold referred to as the “Sold Interest”), then such transfer shall be treated as a purchase
of the Sold Interest by the Operating Partnership directly from the Selling Member in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.708-1(c)(4) and Code Section 741. Each Selling Member expressly consents to such tax treatment with
respect to their Sold Interest. 
  
 5. Transfer
Taxes. All sales, value added, use, state or local transfer and gains taxes, registration, stamp and similar taxes imposed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne exclusively by the
Operating Partnership. 
  
 6. Term of
Agreement. If the Closing (as defined in Section 7A of this Agreement) does not occur by September 30, 2004, this Agreement shall be deemed terminated and shall be of no further force and effect and neither the Operating
Partnership nor either Contributor shall have any further obligations pursuant to this Agreement except as specifically set forth in this Agreement.

injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement by such Contributor and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any federal or state court (as to which the parties agree to submit to jurisdiction for the purposes of such
action), this being in addition to any other remedy to which the Operating Partnership is entitled under this Agreement or otherwise at law or in equity. 
  
 17. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any right, interest or obligation hereunder may be assigned by any party hereto without the prior
written consent of the other party hereto and any attempt to do so will be void; provided, that the Operating Partnership may assign all of its rights and duties under this Agreement to an “affiliated company” (as hereafter defined)
without the written consent of the Contributors; provided, that the consideration payable to the Contributors under Section 3 of this Agreement shall be in the form of OP Units and that such assignment shall not affect the status of the exchanges

of any kind in any customer, affiliate, stockholder, partner, member, director, officer, or employee of any party to this Agreement or any other person or entity. 
  
 21. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, is for any reason held to
any extent to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree
to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business, and other purposes of the void or unenforceable provision and to execute any
amendment, consent, or agreement deemed necessary or desirable by the Operating Partnership to effect such replacement. 
  
 22. Reliance. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that it is not relying on tax advice or other advice from the other party
to this Agreement, and that it has or will consult with its own advisors.
