Does the Company contribute to my account?

Your employer will make Safe Harbor matching contributions to your account based on your pretax contributions. 

The amount will equal:
— 100% of the first 3% of your eligible compensation contributed to the Plan
 — 50% of the next 2% of your eligible compensation contributed to the Plan

*Please note that the Safe Harbor matching contribution is calculated and contributed on the amount that you 

contribute each  pay period.  For more information about how the match is calculated, please ask the Plan 

administrator for details.

To be eligible for matching contributions you are required to:
 • make employee pretax deferral contributions or Roth 401(k) after tax deferral contributions. The plan will match 

on the combined total of these contributions up to the matching limit.

account. The amount would be determined at Plan Year end by a Board of Directors' Resolution.

 • make employee pretax deferral contributions or Roth 401(k) after tax deferral contributions. The plan will match 

on the combined total of these contributions up to the matching limit.

Age 50 and over Catch-Up Contributions described above.

 

How does the Extra Space 401K match work?

 

Extra Space provides a match to your 401K contributions up to 5%. That 5 % is matched at 2 different rates, here

is how it all works. 

We'll use $100,000 as your earned income from Extra Space just to make the math easy. 

*Please note that while the below examples are simplified by using annual salary, the Safe Harbor matching 

contribution is calculated and contributed on the amount that you contribute each pay period.  For more 

information about how the match is calculated, please refer to the Plan’s Summary Plan Description or ask the Plan 

administrator for details.
