ITEM 1.01 | Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On July 27, 2005, Extra Space Storage LP (the “Company”), the operating partnership subsidiary of Extra Space Storage Inc., and ESS Statutory Trust III, a Delaware statutory trust formed by the Company on July 26, 2005 (the “Trust”), completed the issuance and sale in a private placement of $40,000,000 aggregate principal amount of fixed/floating rate preferred securities (the “Trust Preferred Securities”) issued by the Trust. The Trust Preferred Securities mature on July 30, 2035, are redeemable at the Company’s option beginning on July 30, 2010, and require quarterly distributions of interest by the Trust to the holder of the Trust Preferred Securities. Distributions will be payable quarterly at a fixed interest rate equal to 6.91% per annum through July 30, 2010 and then will be payable at a variable interest rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate plus 2.40% per annum. The Trust simultaneously issued 1,238 of the Trust’s common securities (the “Common Securities”) to the Company for a purchase price of $1,238,000, which constitute all of the issued and outstanding common securities of the Trust.
The Trust used the proceeds from the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities together with the proceeds from the sale of the Common Securities to purchase $41,238,000 aggregate principal amount of unsecured fixed/floating rate junior subordinated notes due July 30, 2035 issued by the Company (the “Junior Subordinated Notes”). The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Junior Subordinated Notes to the Trust have been used by the Company to repay debt associated with a bridge loan obtained in connection with the closing of the recent acquisition of Storage USA.
The Junior Subordinated Notes were issued pursuant to a Junior Subordinated Indenture, dated July 27, 2005 (the “Indenture”), between the company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, as trustee. The terms of the Junior Subordinated Notes are substantially the same as the terms of the Trust Preferred Securities. The interest payments on the Junior Subordinated Notes paid by the Company will be used by the Trust to pay the quarterly distributions to the holders of the Trust Preferred Securities. The Indenture permits the Company to redeem the Junior Subordinated Notes (and thus a like amount of the Preferred Trust Securities) on or after July 30, 2010. If the Company redeems any amount of the Junior Subordinated Notes, the Trust must redeem a like amount of the Trust Preferred Securities.
The terms of the Trust Preferred Securities are governed by an Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, dated July 27, 2005 (the “Trust Agreement”), among the Company, as depositor, JP Morgan Chase Bank, National Association, as property trustee, Chase Bank USA, National Association, as Delaware trustee, the Administrative Trustees named therein and the holders from time to time of undivided beneficial interests in the assets of the Trust. Under the terms of the Trust Preferred Securities, an event of default generally occurs upon:
• | a default in the payment of interest on the Junior Subordinated Note when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; |
• | a default in the payment of the principal of, or any premium on, the Junior Subordinated Note at its maturity; |
• | a default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or warranty of the Company in the Indenture, which default continues for a period of 30 days after the Company received notice of such failure; |
• | a default in the payment of any distribution on the Trust Preferred Securities when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of the default for a period of 30 days; |
2
• | a default in the payment of the redemption price of any Trust Preferred Security when it becomes due and payable; |
• | a default in the performance, or breach, in any material respect of any covenant or warranty of the trustees in the Trust Agreement, which default continues for a period of 30 days after the trustees and the Company receive notice of such failure; or |
• | bankruptcy or liquidation of the Company or of the Trust. |
The offering of the Trust Preferred Securities was conducted pursuant to two Purchase Agreements, dated as of July 27, 2005 (the “Purchase Agreements”), among the Company, the Trust and the Purchasers named therein.
The preceding discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the Indenture, the Trust Agreement, the Junior Subordinated Notes, the Trust Preferred Securities and the Purchase Agreements. Copies of the Indenture, the Trust Agreement, the form of security representing the Junior Subordinated Note, the form of Trust Preferred Securities Certificate and the Purchase Agreements are attached hereto as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.
