1. Recitals and Definitions. The parties acknowledge that the Recitals set forth above are true and correct and are hereby incorporated into the body of this Third Amendment. Unless otherwise set forth herein, all capitalized terms used in this Third Amendment shall have the same meaning in this Third Amendment as set forth in either the Original Agreement, as amended or supplemented by the First Amendment, the Second Amendment and this Third Amendment (collectively the “Contribution Agreement”).
2. Expiration of Due Diligence Period. The parties acknowledge that the Due Diligence Period has expired and that HSRE has waived and does hereby waive any rights it might have to terminate Contribution Agreement pursuant to Section 8.3 of the Contribution Agreement.
3. Approval of Third Party Loan Documents. Pursuant to Section 3.2.1.1 of the Contribution Agreement, HSRE hereby approves the amount, interest rate, payment schedule, repayment term and other terms of the Existing Indebtedness and approves the Third Party Loan Documents. The parties acknowledge, however, that as part of the application to the Lender to consent to the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement Extra Space, at HSRE’s request, included a request that the Lender
agree to certain modifications of the Third Party Loan Documents in the form attached hereto as Exhibit No. 1 and by this reference made a part hereof (hereinafter the “Requested Loan Document Modifications”). The parties agree that HSRE may, in good faith, continue to pursue the Lender’s consent to the Requested Loan Document Modifications to the Third Party Loan Documents and Extra Space agrees to cooperate in good faith with HSRE in such requests. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.1.5 of the Contribution Agreement, HSRE’s obligations under the Contribution Agreement shall not be contingent or otherwise conditioned upon either the Lender or any servicer of the Existing Indebtedness consenting to the Requested Loan Document Modifications. HSRE agrees that within five (5) business days of the date of this Third Amendment, HSRE shall, in good faith, submit to the Lender all of the information and documentation heretofore requested in writing from HSRE by the Lender and shall hereafter submit to the Lender in a reasonably timely manner all information and documentation hereafter requested from the Lender.

The Capital Expenditure Fund shall be used by HSRE-ESP to fund the cost of performing such of the capital repairs indentified in Schedule No. 1 attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof (hereinafter the “Capital Repair Schedule”) as HSRE may, from time to time, direct. Extra Space’s advance to ESP 51 of the Capital Expenditure Fund (A) shall be in full and complete satisfaction of Extra Space’s obligation to repair any of the items listed HSRE’s September 9, 2009 Repair Notice and (B) shall not be treated as a capital contribution or a loan by Extra Space to HSRE-ESP or to ESP 51 and shall not cause an increase in the Contribution Value.

6. Agreement Regarding Designation of Insurance Program. The parties acknowledge that property and casualty insurance for the Facilities is currently provided pursuant to a “REIT Program” pursuant to which ESP 57 and ESP Texas have elected to carry high deductibles for certain potential risks. The parties also acknowledge that Extra Space has proposed that casualty insurance for the Facilities can be provided either pursuant to Extra Space’s existing REIT Program, or, at a higher cost, through Extra Space’s “JV Program” pursuant to which ESP 57 and ESP Texas can elect to reduce or eliminate the deductible risks, or by using HSRE’s property and casualty insurance program. The parties agree that provided such insurance satisfies the requirements of the Lender with respect to the Facilities, HSRE may, at the time of Closing, elect that property and casualty insurance for the Facilities be provided pursuant to any of the three preceding described programs. Any further changes in the casualty insurance coverage for the Facilities will be approved as part of the process of approving the Annual Business Plan and/or Annual Operating Budget.
7. Annual Business Plan and Annual Operating Budget. The parties acknowledge that Extra Space delivered to HSRE the Annual Business Plan and the Annual Operating Budget in accordance with Section 8.4 of the Contribution Agreement and that Extra Space is in the process of preparing the Annual Business Plan and Annual Operating Budget for fiscal year 2010. HSRE hereby approves the Annual Business Plan and the Annual Operating Agreement as previously submitted to HSRE by Extra Space and acknowledges that such approval constitutes HSRE’s approval of the Annual Business Plan and Annual Budget within the meaning of Section 11.1.4 of the Contribution Agreement. Upon completion of the fiscal year 2010 Annual Business Plan and Annual Operating Budget, the fiscal year 2010 Annual Business Plan and Annual Operating Budget shall be reviewed and approved by the
parties in accordance with the provisions of the form of HSRE-ESP Operating Agreement and the form of Property Management Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.1.4 of the Contribution Agreement, HSRE’s obligations under the Contribution Agreement shall not be contingent or otherwise conditioned upon HSRE’s approval of the fiscal year 2010 Annual Business Plan and/or Annual Operating Budget.
8. Waiver of Title Objections, Environmental Objections, Insurance Objections and Budget Objections. HSRE hereby waives all of its Title Objections, Environmental Objections, Insurance Objections and Budget Objections, subject, however, to Extra Space’s undertakings expressly set forth in Extra Space’s Objection Response.
9. Amendment of Sections 2.2.2, 2.2.3 and 2.2.4 of the Contribution Agreement. Sections 2.2.2, 2.2.3 and 2.2.4 of the Contribution Agreement are hereby amended by deleting said Sections 2.2.2, 2.2.3 and 2.2.4 in their entirety and replacing them with the following Sections 2.2.2, 2.2.3 and 2.2.4:
2.2.2 Distribution Amount. Immediately after the Closing Extra Space and HSRE shall cause HSRE-ESP to distribute to Extra Space cash in an amount (the “Extra Space Distribution Amount”) equal to the sum of: (i) the “Initial HSRE Contribution Amount” (hereinafter defined) minus (ii) any closing costs and prorations described in Section 4.3.4 below (including the costs described in Section 4.3.4 below) (collectively, the “Prorations”) and credited, as of the Proration Date (as defined below), to HSRE-ESP, plus (iii) any Prorations credited, as of the Proration Date, to Extra Space. As used herein, the term “Initial HSRE Contribution Amount” shall mean fifty percent (50%) of the difference between (A) the Contribution Value, minus (B) the sum of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Existing Indebtedness plus all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Existing Indebtedness as of the Proration Date. Extra Space and HSRE agree that for purposes of determining the balance of Extra Space’s “Capital Account” (as defined in the HSRE-ESP Operating Agreement) and Extra Space’s “Adjusted Capital Account” (as defined in the HSRE-ESP Operating Agreement), the gross amount of Extra Space’s initial “Capital Contribution” to HSRE-ESP shall be reduced by the Initial HSRE Contribution Amount notwithstanding the fact that the amount actually distributed to Extra Space by HSRE-ESP is adjusted (either increased or decreased) pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.2.2. The parties hereby agree that the provisions of this Section 2.2.2 are intended to cause the Adjusted Capital Accounts of HSRE and Extra Space to be in an 50.00%/50.00% ratio, respectively, following the contribution of the ESP Interests by Extra Space and the Initial HSRE Contribution Amount by HSRE and the distribution of the Extra Space Distribution Amount to Extra Space and the pro-rations and credits provided for herein.

Such option shall be exercised by HSRE giving Extra Space written notice of HSRE’s election to either extend the Closing or terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.2.3 at any time on or before the date on which the Closing Date would be scheduled to occur but for such extension. If HSRE fails to give such written notice to Extra Space, such failure shall be deemed to be an election to terminate this Agreement.
