Hines Global REIT II, Inc. (“Hines Global REIT II” or the “Company”) held its annual meeting of stockholders on September 13, 2017. During the meeting, the Company’s stockholders elected each of the five nominees to serve as directors and ratified the selection of Deloitte & Touche as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017. However, the Company determined to adjourn the meeting until October 4, 2017 in order to continue to solicit proxies with respect to the proposal to approve an amendment to its charter to comply with a request from a state securities administrator, since it did not receive sufficient votes to approve this proposal.
On September 14, 2017, Hines Global REIT II distributed the letter immediately below to stockholders to continue to solicit proxies.
In addition, Hines Global REIT II distributed the email communication immediately following the stockholder letter below to certain financial advisors, whose clients include stockholders of Hines Global REIT II, regarding the proxy solicitation described above.
PROXY VOTING REMINDER
Please vote your shares now.
Dear Hines Global REIT II Stockholder:
We previously sent you proxy material for the annual meeting of stockholders of
Hines Global REIT II, Inc. scheduled to be held on September 13, 2017. According to our most recent records, we have not received your vote for this meeting. At the annual meeting, we received enough votes from our stockholders to re-elect each of the members of our board of directors and to ratify the selection of Deloitte & Touche. However, we adjourned the meeting until October 4th in order to continue to solicit proxies with respect to the proposal to approve an amendment to our charter to comply with a request from a state securities administrator (the “Charter Proposal”).
Regardless of the number of shares that you may own, it is very important that they be represented at the meeting when it is reconvened, so please vote now. Further, by voting now, you may help us limit the additional fees that we may incur to solicit additional votes.
Our board of directors unanimously recommends that stockholders vote FOR the Charter Proposal.
