FFO provides relevant and meaningful information about the Company's operating performance that is necessary, along with net income and cash flows, for an understanding of the Company's operating results. The Company believes FFO is a meaningful disclosure as a supplement to net earnings. Net earnings assume that the values of real estate assets diminish predictably over time as reflected through depreciation and amortization expenses. The values of real estate assets fluctuate due to market conditions and the Company believes FFO more accurately reflects the value of the Company's real estate assets. FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT") as net income computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), excluding gains or losses on sales of operating properties, plus depreciation and amortization and after adjustments to record unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures on the same basis. The Company believes that to further understand the Company's performance, FFO should be considered along with the reported net income and cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The Company's computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of the Company's performance, as an alternative to net cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an indicator of the Company's ability to make cash distributions.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the Company's calculation of FFO per diluted share to GAAP net income per diluted share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007:

Same-Store Property Performance:

The Company's same-store stabilized properties for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, consisted of 211 properties that were wholly-owned and operated and that were stabilized by the first day of each period. The Company considers a property to be stabilized once it has been open three years or has sustained average square foot occupancy of 80.0% or more for one calendar year.

The increase in same-store rental revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was due to the Company's success in increasing rental rates to existing customers which offset a slight reduction in occupancy.

Property Acquisitions:

During the three months ended September 30, 2008, the Company acquired one property located in Maryland for approximately $5.0 million. The Company also acquired an additional 40.0% interest in an existing joint venture with Prudential for approximately $44.1 million, increasing the Company's pro-rata equity share from 5.0% to 45.0%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company has acquired three properties on a wholly-owned basis for approximately $23.1 million.

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company has acquired six properties located in Indiana and New York for approximately $45.8 million.

Property Development:

During the three months ended September 30, 2008, the Company completed the development of six self-storage properties located in California, Florida, Illinois and New Jersey for approximately $53.2 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company has completed the development of eight properties for approximately $67.9 million.

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company completed the development of one property located in Maryland for approximately $7.6 million.

Quarterly Dividend Declared and Paid:

On August 29, 2008, the Company announced its third quarter common stock dividend of $0.25 per share. The dividend was paid on September 30, 2008 to stockholders of record as of September 15, 2008. The dividend payment was calculated based on an annual dividend of $1.00 per share.

Direct Offering of Common Stock:

On September 29, 2008, the Company entered into a purchase agreement to sell 3.0 million shares of its common stock in a registered direct placement to certain clients of RREEF America L.L.C. The offering closed on October 3, 2008. The Company received gross proceeds from the offering of approximately $44.1 million.

Balance Sheet:

As of September 30, 2008, the Company's total debt, including trust preferred notes and exchangeable senior notes, was $1.3 billion, compared to $1.3 billion at December 31, 2007. Total cash as of September 30, 2008 was $112.1 million. The Company's percentage of total fixed rate debt to total debt was 91.5%. The weighted average interest rate was 5.0% for fixed rate loans and 5.1% for variable rate loans. The weighted average interest rate of all fixed and variable rate loans was 5.0%.

"Our balance sheet is in a stable position at this time. Our cash, combined with our in-place credit line, term loans and construction loans gives us the capacity to satisfy our near-term debt maturities. In the current environment we want to take advantage of our ability to continue to access the credit markets, and to that end, we are in active discussions with several financial institutions," said Kent Christensen, CFO of Extra Space Storage.

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company repurchased approximately $40.3 million of its exchangeable senior notes on the open market. The repurchase will increase the Company's FFO for the three months and year ending December 31, 2008 as a result of a gain on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $8.0 million.

Market Performance:

For the three months ended September 30, 2008, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Sacramento and San Francisco/Oakland were the top performing markets for stabilized properties. Markets performing below the Company's portfolio average in revenue growth included Las Vegas, Miami/Fort Lauderdale, Philadelphia and Phoenix. Florida continues to underperform despite recent occupancy gains in Tampa/St. Petersburg and West Palm Beach.

"Despite the downturn in economic conditions during the quarter, our properties posted positive operating performance when compared to the same quarter last year. Our revenue management team is being proactive with rates and promotions utilizing real-time intelligence from our centralized database. This has meant we have been able to increase revenue and maintain occupancy similar to last year's levels. We are closely monitoring customer delinquency and it continues to track lower than in previous years. We are taking a conservative approach to our balance sheet at this time, and our near-term debt maturities are covered by our in-place cash and loan availability. Most importantly, our team, our top quality properties and our best-in-class systems are in the best shape they have ever been in, and are getting better still. We will press harder for excellence, knowing we are well positioned at this time for the environment ahead," concluded Mr. Woolley.

Outlook:

For the year ending December 31, 2008, the Company currently estimates that fully diluted FFO per share will be between $1.11 and $1.12 per share before $0.04 in development dilution and before a $0.10 one-time gain from early extinguishment of debt resulting from the Company's repurchase of its exchangeable senior notes. After considering the impact of carrying costs associated with the Company's development program and the one-time gain, the Company expects fully diluted FFO per share for the year ending December 31, 2008 will be between $1.17 and $1.18 per share. FFO estimates are fully diluted for an estimated average number of shares and Operating Partnership units ("OP units") outstanding during the year. The Company's estimates are forward-looking and based on management's view of current and future market conditions. The Company's actual results may differ materially from these estimates, which include the following annual assumptions:

--  Same-store property revenue growth, including tenant reinsurance
    income, between 2.0% and 3.0%.
--  Same-store property expense growth between 1.0% and 2.0%.
--  Same-store property NOI growth, including tenant reinsurance income,
    between 2.5% and 3.5%.
--  Net tenant reinsurance income between $9.0 million and $10.0 million.
    The same-store portion of the net tenant reinsurance income included in
    these amounts is also included in the same-store property revenue and
    NOI growth noted above.
--  General and administrative expenses (net of development fees) between
    $39.0 million and $40.0 million, including non-cash compensation
    expense of approximately $3.6 million.
--  Dilution impact from May and October 2008 stock offerings of between
    $0.04 and $0.05 per share.
--  Interest expense between $63.0 million and $65.0 million.
--  Weighted average LIBOR of 3.0%.
--  Weighted average number of outstanding shares, including OP units, of
    approximately 82.1 million. Included in this amount are an estimated
    1.3 million contingent conversion shares and contingent conversion
    units converting to common shares and OP units throughout the year.
--  Net losses associated with the Company's development program of
    between $3.0 million and $4.0 million.
--  Taxes associated with the Company's management company of approximately
    $1.0 million.
--  One-time gain from early extinguishment of debt resulting from the
    Company's repurchase of its exchangeable senior notes of approximately
    $8.0 million.

In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as "believes," "estimates," "expects," "may," "will," "should," "anticipates," or "intends" or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. We may also make additional forward-looking statements from time to time. All such subsequent forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, by us or on our behalf, are also expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.

All forward-looking statements, including without limitation, management's examination of historical operating trends and estimates of future earnings, are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them, but there can be no assurance that management's expectations, beliefs and projections will result or be achieved. All forward-looking statements apply only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in or contemplated by this release. Any forward-looking statements should be considered in light of the risks referenced in the "Risk Factors" section included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Such factors include, but are not limited to:

--  changes in general economic conditions and in the markets in which we
    operate;
--  the effect of competition from new self-storage facilities or other
    storage alternatives, which could cause rents and occupancy rates to
    decline;
--  potential liability for uninsured losses and environmental
    contamination;
--  difficulties in our ability to evaluate, finance and integrate acquired
    and developed properties into our existing operations and to lease up
    those properties, which could adversely affect our profitability;
--  the impact of the regulatory environment as well as national, state,
    and local laws and regulations including, without limitation, those
    governing REITs, which could increase our expenses and reduce our cash
    available for distribution;
--  recent disruptions in credit and financial markets and resulting
    difficulties in raising capital at reasonable rates, which could impede
    our ability to grow;
--  delays in the development and construction process, which could
    adversely affect our profitability; and
--  economic uncertainty due to the impact of war or terrorism, which could
    adversely affect our business plan.
