ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS

 

On April 16, 2012, Extra Space Storage Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (the “Underwriter”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Underwriter 7,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.01 per share (“Common Stock”), plus up to an additional 1,050,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Underwriter’s option to purchase additional shares, at a purchase price of $28.22 per share. The offering, including the additional shares sold pursuant to the Underwriter’s full exercise of its option, closed on April 20, 2012. Net proceeds of the offering were approximately $226.9 million after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated expenses.

 

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of this offering to fund in full the cash consideration for its acquisition of a 94.9% interest in ESS PRISA III LLC from Prudential Real Estate Investors (“PREI”), to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under its secured lines of credit, to fund other potential acquisitions in the future and for other general corporate and working capital purposes.

 

The acquisition of PREI’s interest in the joint venture is subject to customary closing conditions. The Company intends to consummate the acquisition in July 2012; however, there can be no assurances that the acquisition will close on the terms described herein or at all.
