RISK FACTOR SUMMARY

We are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in our forward-looking statements, including those summarized below. The following list of risks and uncertainties is only a summary of some of the most important factors and is
2


not intended to be exhaustive. This risk factor summary should be read together with the more detailed discussion of risks and uncertainties set forth under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this Annual Report.

Risks Related to Our Business and Operations

We have experienced annual net losses from inception through December 31, 2022 and may experience similar losses in light of these factorsthe future.

Our cash distributions are not guaranteed and monthly cash distributions were suspended in July 2022.

We have in the past and may in the future pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations. To the extent that we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations, we will have reduced funds available for investment and the factors identifiedoverall return to our stockholders may be reduced.

There is currently no public trading market for your shares; therefore, it will be difficult for you to sell your shares. If you are able to sell your shares, you may have to sell them at a substantial discount from the public offering price.

We disclose funds from operations and modified funds from operations, each a non-GAAP financial measure, in communications with investors, including documents filed with the SEC; however, funds from operations and modified funds from operation are not equivalent to our net income or loss of cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP, and stockholders should consider GAAP measures to be more relevant to our operating performance.

We recently transitioned to a self-managed real estate investment trust and have limited experience being self-managed.

You are limited in your ability to sell your shares of common stock. You may not be able to sell any of your shares of our common stock back to us, and if you do sell your shares, you may not receive the price you paid.

Risks Related to Conflict of Interest

Other Hartman real estate programs, which we sponsor or provide management and advisory services, have investment strategies that are similar to ours. Our executive officers will face conflicts of interest relating to the purchase and leasing of properties and other investments, and such conflicts may not be resolved in our favor.

Our executive officers and some of our directors, will face conflicts of interest caused by their compensation arrangements with us, which could result in actions that are not in the Risk Factors sectionslong-term best interests of this annual reportour stockholders.

General Investment Risks

There is no public trading market for shares of our common stock and we are not required to effectuate a liquidity event by a certain date. As a result, repurchase of shares by us will likely be the only way to dispose of your shares. Our share repurchase program is subject to numerous restrictions and we may amend or suspend our share redemption program without stockholder approval.

We cannot guarantee that we will make distributions. In July 2022, our board of directors suspended our monthly cash distribution. If and when we pay distributions, we may fund such distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations, including, without limitation, the sale of assets, borrowings, return of capital or offering proceeds, and we have no limits on Form 10-K.



the amounts we may pay from such sources.



Changes in national, regional or local economic, demographic or real estate market conditions, including
3


actual or perceived instability in the U.S. banking system, may adversely affect our results of operations and returns to our stockholders


Risks Related to Our Organizational Structure

Maryland law and our organizational documents limit your right to bring claims against our officers and directors.

The limit on the percentage of shares of our common stock that any person may own may discourage a takeover or business combination that may benefit our stockholders.

Your investment return may be reduced if we are required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act; if we are subject to registration under the Investment Company Act, we will not be able to continue our business.

Stockholders have limited control over changes in our policies and operations.

Risks Related to Investments in Real Estate

Many of our investments will be dependent on tenants for revenue, and lease terminations could reduce our ability to make distributions to stockholders.

We may be unable to secure funds for future tenant improvements, which could adversely impact our ability to make cash distributions to our stockholders.

Risks Associated With Debt Financing

Our borrowings may increase our business risks.

If mortgage debt is unavailable at reasonable rates, we may not be able to refinance our properties.

If we enter into financing arrangements involving balloon payment obligations, it may adversely affect our future ability to make distributions.

Federal Income Tax Risks

To maintain our REIT status, we may be forced to forgo otherwise attractive opportunities, which may delay or hinder our ability to meet our investment objectives and reduce your overall return.

Retirement Plan Risks

There are special considerations for pension or profit-sharing or 401(k) plans, health or welfare plans or individual retirement accounts whose assets are being invested in our common stock due to requirements under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code. Furthermore, a person acting on behalf of a plan not subject to ERISA may be subject to similar penalties under applicable federal, state, local, or non-U.S. law by reason of purchasing our stock.

Going Concern Considerations

We are on the third and final one year maturity date option under the SASB Loan. Management has determined that the our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the our ability to refinance the SASB Loan prior to the maturity date.


On October 19, 2022, we received a notice from the loan servicer of the SASB Loan in our follow-on offering;


·

continuedconnection with an event of default due to pay a monthly distribution, which if paid each day over a 365-day period, is equivalentthe noncompliance with the loan agreement's insurance requirements relating to a 7% annualized distribution rate basedsingle property. The event of default was previously waived for the sole purpose of exercising the final one-year extension option to the SASB Loan term. The default triggers cash management provisions under the SASB Loan agreement, which was implemented in November 2022. Cash management implementation has restricted access to tenant receipts and limited the amount of cash available to meet our operating obligations. Refer to Note 8 (Notes Payable) to the consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report for additional information regarding the timing and priority of disbursements we receive from the cash management accounts and required excess cash flow reserves.


Notwithstanding cash management implementation, we believe that we will have sufficient capital to meet our existing, monthly debt service and other operating obligations for the next year and that we have adequate resources to fund our cash needs. We are working with our third party advisor on refinancing options that are in alignment with a purchase pricerange of $10.00 per sharestrategic alternatives being evaluated.

Investment Objectives and Strategy: Hartman Advantage


Our primary investment objectives are to:


·

realize growth in the value of our investments;

·

preserve, protect and return stockholders capital contributions;

·

grow net cash from operations and pay regular cash distributions to our stockholders.

Strategy


We cannot assure our stockholders that we will achieve these objectives.


The cornerstone of our investment strategy is our advisors disciplinehave invested in acquiring a diverse portfolio of real estate investments. As of December 31, 2022, we owned a total of 44 commercial properties, consisting of 29 office properties, 12 retail properties, and 3 industrial/flex properties. Historically, we have relied on a value add acquisition and development strategy, focused specifically properties that are located in Texas, that offer a blend of current and potential income based on in place occupancy plus relatively significant potential forto realize growth in income and value from re-tenanting; repositioning or redevelopment.  We refer to this strategy as “value add” or the “Hartman Advantage.”


We rely upon the value add or Hartman Advantageof our investments, grow net cash from operations, and pay regular cash distributions to our stockholders.


The current economic slowdown, rising interest rate environment, inflation, and the COVID-19 pandemic have had a negative impact on us. Effective July 8, 2022, we suspended the payment of distributions and seek to preserve capital to secure our financial health on an ongoing basis.

We have changed our investment objectives and strategy to evaluate potential commercial real estate acquisition and investment opportunities per completed acquisition or investment.


Effective March 31, 2016 we are terminating our follow-on offering.  Our board of directors continues to evaluate potential liquidity events to maximizepreserve the total potential return to our stockholders, including, but not limited to, merging our Company with its affiliates followed by a listinglong-term health of our sharescompany and we do not anticipate acquiring any office properties in the near future. Management and the Executive Committee of common stock onour Board of Directors have identified, examined, and evaluated a national securities exchange.  Management currently estimatesrange of strategic alternatives and are in the possible timing for such a liquidity event to be during late 2016 or 2017.  However,process of carrying out our boardNew Direction Plans with the objective of directors has not made a decision to pursue any specific liquidity event, and there can be no assurance that we will complete a liquidity event on the terms described above, or at all.


maximizing shareholder value.


We do not anticipate that there will be any market for our shares of common stock unless they are listed on a national securities exchange. We recently engaged advisors to examine the possibility of listing our shares on a public exchange in conjunction with our previously-announced New Direction Plans. In the event that our shares of common stock are not listed or traded on an established securities exchange prior to the tenth anniversary of the completion or termination of our initial public offering, which terminated on April 25, 2013, our charter requires that the board of directors must seek the approval of our stockholders of a plan to liquidate our assets, unless the board of directors has obtained the approval of our stockholders (1) to defer the liquidation of our assets or (2) of an alternate strategy.


If the stockholders do not approve the proposal presented by the board of directors prior to the end of ten years after the termination of the Company’s initial public offering, the board of directors shall begin the process of liquidating the Company’s assets or listing the Company’s shares. The Executive Committee of the Board of Directors has

6


adopted resolutions directing management to begin the process of listing the Company’s shares on an established securities exchange, and it is taking steps to accomplish the listing, including without limitation engaging the services of an investment bank to assist with the listing.

We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code beginning with the taxable year ending December 31, 2011. As a REIT we generally are not subject to federal income tax on income that we distribute to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year after the year in which we initially elected to be treated as a REIT, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for four years following the year in which our qualification is denied. Such an event could materially and adversely affect our net income. However, we believe that we are organized and will operate in a manner that will enable us to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and we intend to operate so as to remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.

Competition



The United States commercial real estate market is highly competitive. All of our properties are located in areas that include competing properties. We face competition from various entities for investment opportunities in our targeted assets, including other REITs, pension funds, insurance companies, investment funds, real estate companies and developers. Many of these entities have substantially greater financial resources than we do and may be able to accept more risk than we can prudently manage, including risks with respect to the geographic location of investments or the creditworthiness of tenants. Competition from these entities may reduce the number of suitable investment opportunities offered to us or increase the bargaining power of property owners seeking to sell real estate assets. The amount of competition in a particular market could also impact our ability to lease space and impact the amount of rent we are able to charge.

Our employees also receive extensive and ongoing training concerning important cybersecurity issues. Many of our advisoremployees hold professional licenses and its affiliates provide management, acquisition, advisorywe encourage them, and certain administrative services for us.


in many cases reimburse them, to attend ongoing continuing professional education such as is typically required of attorneys, engineers and certified public accountants.

Employee Health and Safety. We recognize the importance of the health, safety and environmental well-being of our employees, and are committed to providing and maintaining a healthy work environment.

Regulations



All real property investments and the operations conducted in connection with such investments are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations. Our investments are subject to various federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, and regulations, including, among other things, zoning regulations, land use controls, environmental controls relating to air and water quality, noise pollution, and indirect environmental impacts.



Under various federal and state environmental laws and regulations, as an owner or operator of real estate, we may be required to investigate and clean up certain hazardous or toxic substances, asbestos-containing materials, or petroleum product releases at our properties.  We may also be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage and for investigation and cleanup costs incurred by those parties in connection with the contamination. In addition, some environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated site in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs in connection with the contamination.  The presence of contamination or the failure to remediate contaminationscontamination at any of our properties may adversely affect our ability to sell or lease the properties or to borrow using the properties as collateral.

We will not purchase any property unless and until we obtain what is generally referred to as a “Phase I” environmental site assessment and are generally satisfied with the environmental status of the property.  A Phase I environmental site assessment basically consists of a visual survey of the building and the property in an attempt to identify areas of potential environmental concerns, visually observing neighboring properties to assess surface conditions or activities that may have an adverse environmental impact on the property, and contacting local governmental agency personnel and performing a regulatory agency file search in an attempt to determine any known environmental concerns in the immediate vicinity of the property.  A Phase I environmental site assessment does not generally include any sampling or testing of soil, groundwater or building materials from the property.  Certain properties that we have acquired contain, or contained, dry-cleaning establishments utilizing solvents.  Where believed to be warranted, samplings of building materials or subsurface investigations were undertaken with respect to these and other properties.


We do not believe that compliance with existing environmental laws will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. However, we cannot predict the impact of unforeseen environmental contingencies or new or changed laws or regulations on properties in which we hold an interest, or on properties that may be acquired directly or indirectly in the future.



Tax Status



We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Internal Revenue Code, and have operated as such beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2011. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of our annual REIT taxable income to stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction orand excluding net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). to stockholders. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax to the extentso long as we distribute qualifying dividends tomaintain our stockholders.REIT status. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year after the taxable year in which we initially elected to be taxed as a REIT, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost, unless the Internal Revenue Service grants us relief under certain statutory provisions.  Such an event could materially adversely affect our net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. We believe we are organized and operate in such a manner as to qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, and we intend to continue to operate in such a manner, but no assurance can be given that we will operate in a manner so as to qualify or remain qualified as a REIT.

Financial Information About Segments



Our current business consists of acquiring, developing, investing-in, owning, managing, leasing, operating, and disposing of real estate assets. We internally evaluate all of our real estate assets as one industry segment and, accordingly, do not report segment information.


Economic Dependency

We are dependent on our advisor for certain services that are essential to us, including the identification, evaluation, negotiation, purchase and disposition of properties and other investments, management of the daily operations of our real estate portfolio, and other general and administrative responsibilities. In the event that our advisor is unable to provide these services to us, we will be required to obtain such services from other sources, and our failure to identify such other sources could have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations. Prior to the termination of the offer and sale of our shares to the public in our follow-on offering, we were dependent upon our dealer manager for the sale of our shares in our follow-on offering.

Item 1A.     Risk Factors



The following are some of the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face but do represent those risks and uncertainties that we believe are material to us. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also harm our business. Our stockholders or potential investors may be referred to as “you” or “your” in this Item 1A.



Risks Related to an Investment in Hartman Short Term Income Properties XX, Inc.


We have a limited operating historyOur Business and there is no assurance that we will be able to successfully achieve our investment objectives.


We commenced our operations on December 28, 2010.  We, our sponsor and our advisor have limited operating history and may not be able to successfully operate our business or achieve our investment objectives.  As a result, an investment in our shares of common stock may entail more risk than an investment in the shares of common stock of a real estate investment trust with a substantial operating history.


Operations


We have experienced annual net losses from inception through December 31, 20152022 and may experience similar losses in the future.



From inception through December 31, 2015,2022, we incurred a net loss of $18,097,905.$108,239,000. We cannot assure that we will be profitable in the future or that we will realize growth in the value of our assets.


Since the commencement of our initial public offering in 2010, we have raised a relatively limited amount of offering proceeds, and have made a limited number of investments.


Based upon our operating history to date and our relatively limited portfolio of investments, there can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully operate our business or achieve our investment objectives. During the period from the commencement of our initial public offering on February 9, 2010 to December 31, 2015, we accepted investors’ subscriptions for, and issued, 14,038,203 shares of our common stock in our initial and follow-on offerings, including 897,459 shares of our common stock pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, resulting in gross offering proceeds of approximately $136,853,634. As of December 31, 2015, we had made 15 investments.  For additional information regarding our property portfolio, see Part I, Item 2, “Properties” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.



Our cash distributions arehave been indefinitely suspended. To the extent paid in the future, our distributions will not be guaranteed, may fluctuate and may constitute a return of capital or taxable gain from the sale or exchange of property.



We began paying a distribution in January 20112011. Effective July 8, 2022, our board of directors approved the suspension of the payment of distributions to our stockholders. There can be no assurance when the payment of distributions will resume, if at a rate which, if paid each day over a 365-day period,all. To the extent the payment of distributions is equivalent to a 7.0% annualized distribution rate based on a purchase price of $10.00 per share of our common stock. The actualresumed, the amount and timing of distributions will be determined by our board of directors and will typically will depend upon the amount of funds available for distribution, which will depend on items such as current and projected cash requirements and tax considerations. As a result, our distribution rate and payment frequency may vary from time to time. To the extent we do not have sufficient funds, or sources, of funds to pay distributions, we may be forced to reduce the rate at which we pay distributions or stop paying distributions entirely. Distributions payable to our stockholders may also include a return of capital, rather than a return on capital.


Our long-term strategy is to fund the payment of regular distributions to our stockholders entirely from our funds from operations. However, we may need to borrow funds or utilize offering proceeds in order to make cash distributions. Accordingly, the amount of distributions paid at any given time may not reflect current cash flow from operations.

The geographic concentration of our portfolio may make us particularly susceptible to adverse economic developments in the real estate markets of those areas.



As of December 31, 20152022, we owned 15or held a majority interest in 44 commercial properties comprising approximately 2,395,9106,800,000 square feet plus threefour pad sites and two land developments, all of which are located in the StateTexas. As of Texas.  We own sevenDecember 31, 2022, we owned 15 properties located in Richardson, Arlington, and Dallas, Texas, six26 properties located in Houston, Texas and twothree properties located in San Antonio, Texas. Our geographic focus on the State of Texas is consistent with our investment strategy. However, our focus on investments in the State of Texas results in a geographic concentration in our portfolio which increases the likelihood that a downturn in economic or market conditions that selectively or disproportionately impact the State of Texas will have a significant





impact on our results of operations and financial condition and our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. Any adverse economic or real estate developments in the Texas market, such as business layoffs or downsizing, industry slowdowns, relocationsrelocation of businesses, changing demographics and other factors, or any decrease in demand for commercial property space resulting from local business climates, could adversely affect our property revenue, and hence net operating income. As a result, anAn investment in our shares of common stock may entail more risk than an investment in the shares of common stock of a real estate investment trust with a more geographically diversified portfolio.



We have and may continue to pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations. To the extent that we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations, we will have reduced funds available for investment and the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced.


Our organizational documents permit us to pay distributions from any source, including net proceeds from our public offerings, borrowings, advances from our sponsor or advisor and the deferral of fees and expense reimbursements by our advisor, in its sole discretion. Since our inception, our cash flow from operations has not been sufficient to fund all of our distributions, and as a consequence we have funded a significant portion of our distributions with the net proceeds of our public offerings. Of the $7,193,003$8,458,000 in total distributions we paid during the year ended December 31, 2015, including shares issued pursuant2022, excluding distributions we paid to our distribution reinvestment plan,non-controlling interests, 100% was funded from cash flow from operations. Of the $17,562,252$105,656,000 in total distributions we paid during the period from our inception through December 31, 2015,2022, including shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan and excluding distributions we paid to non-controlling interests, approximately 28%68% was funded from cash flow from operations and approximately 72%32% was funded from offering proceeds.proceeds or other sources. In the future, our cash flow from operations may not be sufficient to fund our distributions and we may continue to fund all or a portion of our distributions from the remaining proceeds from our follow-on offering or other sources other than cash flow from operations. We have not established a limit on the amount of offering proceeds, or other sources other than cash flow from operations, which we may use to fund distributions.

On July 8, 2022, we suspended the payment of distributions to our stockholders and there is no guarantee when we will resume the payment of distributions.


If we are unable to consistently fund distributions to our stockholders entirely from our cash flow from operations, the value of your shares upon a listing of our common stock, the sale of our assets or any other liquidity event may be reduced. To the extent that we fund distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations, our funds available for investment will be reduced relative to the funds available for investment if our distributions were funded solely from cash flow from operations, our ability to achieve our investment objectives will be negatively impacted and the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced. In addition, if we make a distribution in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, the distribution will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital, which will reduce the stockholder’s tax basis in its shares of common stock. The amount, if any, of each distribution in excess of a stockholder’s tax basis in its shares of our common stock will be taxable as gain realized from the sale or exchange of property


property.


Payment of fees to our advisor and its affiliates reducesreduced cash available for investment, which may result in stockholders not receiving a full return of their invested capital.

Because a portion of the offering price from the sale of our shares iswas used to pay expenses and fees, the full offering price paid by our stockholders willwas not be invested in real estate assets. As a result, stockholders will only receive a full return of their invested capital if we either (1) sell our assets or our company for a sufficient amount in excess of the original purchase price of our assets or (2) the market value of our company afterif we were to list our shares of common stock on a national securities exchange is substantially in excess of the original purchase price of our assets.


If we internalize our management functions, your interest in us could be diluted and we could incur other significant costs associated with being self-managed.


Our board of directors may decide in the future to internalize our management functions.  If we do so, we may elect to negotiate to acquire our advisor’s assets and personnel.  At this time, we cannot anticipate the form or amount of consideration or other terms relating to any such acquisition.  Such consideration could take many forms, including cash payments, promissory notes, and shares of our common stock.  The payment of such consideration could cause a dilution of your interests as a stockholder and could reduce the earnings per share and funds from operations per share attributable to your investment.


Additionally, if we internalize our management functions, while we would no longer bear the costs of the various fees and expenses we pay to our advisor under the advisory agreement, our direct expenses would include general and






administrative costs, including legal, accounting and other expenses related to corporate governance, SEC reporting and compliance.  We would also be required to employ personnel and would be subject to potential liabilities commonly faced by employers such as workers compensation and disability claims.  We would also incur the costs of compensation and benefits of our officers, employees and consultants that is currently paid by our advisor or its affiliates.  We may issue equity awards to officers, employees and consultants which would decrease net income and funds from operations and which may further dilute your investment.  We cannot reasonably estimate the amount of fees to our advisor that we would save versus the costs we would incur if we became self-managed.  If the costs assumed as a result of internalization exceed the costs we avoid paying to our advisor, our earnings per share and funds from operations per share would be lower, potentially decreasing the amount of funds available to distribute to our stockholders and the value of our shares.


If we internalize management functions, we could have difficulty integrating these functions as a stand-alone entity.  Currently, our advisor and its affiliates perform asset management and general and administrative functions, including accounting and financial reporting, for multiple entities.  These personnel have a great deal of know-how and experience which provides us with economies of scale.  We may fail to properly identify the appropriate mix of personnel and capital needed to operate on a stand-alone basis.  The inability to manage an internalization transaction effectively could result in our incurring excess costs and suffering deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting.  Such deficiencies could cause us to incur additional administrative costs and our management’s attention could be diverted from efficiently managing our real estate assets.


If we were to internalize our management or if another investment program, whether sponsored by our sponsor or otherwise, hires the employees of our advisor in connection with its own internalization, our ability to conduct our business may be adversely affected.


We rely on persons employed by our advisor and its affiliates to manage our day-to-day operations.  If we were to effect an internalization of our advisor, we may not be able to retain all of the employees of our advisor and its affiliates or to maintain a relationship with our sponsor.  Additionally, some of the employees of our advisor and its affiliates may provide services to one or more other investment programs.  These programs or third parties may decide to retain some or all of our advisor’s key employees.  If this were to occur, these programs could hire persons currently employed by our advisor and its affiliates who are most familiar with our business and operations, which potentially may adversely impact our business.


There is currently no public trading market for your shares;shares and our share redemption program has been indefinitely suspended; therefore, it will be difficult for you to sell your shares. If you are able to sell your shares, you may have to sell them at a substantial discount from the public offering price.



There is currently no public market for the shares and we have no obligation to list our shares on any public securities market. It will therefore be difficult for you to sell your shares of our common stock promptly or at all. Even if you are able to sell your shares of

Further, on July 8, 2022, our common stock, the absence of a public market may cause the price received for any shares of our common stock sold to be less than what you paid or less than your proportionate value of the assets we own. The minimum purchase requirements and suitability standards imposed on prospective investors in our public offering also apply to subsequent purchasers of our shares.  We have adopted a share redemption program but it is limited in terms of the amount of shares that stockholder may sell back to us each quarter. Our board of directors may reject any request for redemptionapproved the indefinite suspension of shares or amend, suspend or terminate our share redemption program for any reason upon 30 days’ written notice to participants.  As a result ofsupport the foregoing, you should purchase shareslong-term fiscal health of our common stock only as a long-term investment, and you must be preparedcompany. There is no way to hold your shares for an indefinite length of time.


We may suffer from delays in acquiring and/or developing properties, which could adversely affect the return on your investment.


Our ability to achieve our investment objectives and to make distributions to our stockholders is dependent upon the performance of our advisor in the acquisition and development of properties, and investments and determination of financing arrangements as well as the performance of our leasing agents in the selection of tenants and the negotiation of leases. Except for the investments described in our prospectus, you will have no opportunity to evaluate the terms of transactions or other economic or financial data concerning our investments. You must rely entirely on the oversight ofpredict when, if at all, our board of directors will determine to resume the management abilityrepurchase of shares of our advisor and the performance of the leasing agents selected by them. We cannot be sure that our advisor will be successful in obtaining suitable investments on financially attractive terms.






We could suffer from delays in locating suitable investments as a result of our reliance on our advisor at times when management of our advisor is simultaneously seeking to locate suitable investments for other Hartman-sponsored programs, some of which have investment objectives and employ investment strategies that are similar to ours. Although our sponsor generally seeks to avoid simultaneous public offerings of funds that have a substantially similar mix of fund characteristics, including targeted investment types, investment objectives and criteria, and anticipated fund terms, there may be periods during which one or more Hartman-sponsored programs are seeking to invest in similar properties.


Additionally, as a public company, we are subject to the ongoing reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the “Exchange Act.” Pursuant to the Exchange Act, we may be required to file with the SEC financial statements of properties we acquire. To the extent any required financial statements are not available or cannot be obtained, we may not be able to acquire the property. As a result, we may not be able to acquire certain properties that otherwise would be a suitable investment. We could suffer delays in our property acquisitions due to these reporting requirements.


Furthermore, where we acquire properties prior to the start of construction or during the early stages of construction, it will typically take considerable time to complete construction and rent available space. Therefore, our stockholders could suffer delays in the receipt of distributions attributable to those particular properties.


Delays we encounter in the selection, acquisition and development of properties could adversely affect our stockholders’ returns. In addition, if we are unable to invest offering proceeds in real properties in a timely manner, we will hold the proceeds of our public offering in an interest-bearing account, invest the proceeds in short-term, investment-grade investments or, ultimately, liquidate. In such an event, our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders and the returns to our stockholders would be adversely affected.


If we lose or are unable to obtain key personnel, our ability to implement our investment strategies could be delayed or hindered.


Our success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of certain executive officers and other key personnel, of us, our advisor and its affiliates, including Allen R. Hartman, each of whom would be difficult to replace.  In particular, we have not obtained and do not intend to obtain “key man” life insurance on Mr. Hartman. We do not have employment agreements with our executive officers, and we cannot guarantee that they will remain affiliated with us. Although several of our executive officers and key employees have entered into employment agreements with affiliates of our advisor, these agreements are generally terminable at will, and we cannot guarantee that such persons will remain affiliated with our advisor.  If any of our key personnel were to cease their affiliation with us, our advisor or its affiliates, our operating results could suffer. We believe that our future success depends, in large part, upon our advisor’s and its affiliates’ ability to hire and retain highly skilled managerial, operational and marketing personnel.  Competition for persons with these skills is intense, and we cannot assure our stockholders that our advisor will be successful in attracting and retaining such skilled personnel. Further, we have established, and intend in the future to establish, strategic relationships with firms that have special expertise in certain services or as to assets both nationally and in certain geographic regions. Maintaining these relationships will be important for us to effectively compete for assets. We cannot assure our stockholders that we will be successful in attracting and retaining such strategic relationships. If we lose or are unable to obtain the services of key personnel or do not establish or maintain appropriate strategic relationships, our ability to implement our investment strategies could be delayed or hindered.


Because we rely on our advisor and its affiliates for the provision of advisory and property management services, if our advisor were unable to meet its obligations we may be required to find alternative providers of these services, which could result in a disruption of our business and may increase our costs.


In the event that our advisor were unable to meet its obligations as they become due, we might be required to find alternative service providers, which could result in disruption of our business.


We will provide stockholders with an estimated value per share of our common stock until 2016. Therefore, you will not be able to determine the true value of your shares on an ongoing basis during our initial public offering.


Under current regulations we are required to publicly disclose an estimated value per share of our common stock not later than April 11, 2016. Therefore, you will not be able to determine the true value of your shares on an ongoing basis





until such time as we establish an estimated value per share. Our estimated value per share will be based upon valuations of all of our assets by independent third-party appraisers and qualified independent valuation experts recommended by our advisor and approved by our board of directors. Our estimated value per share may not be indicative of the price our stockholders would receive if they sold our shares in an arm’s-length transaction, if our shares were actively traded or if we were liquidated.


We disclose funds from operations and modified funds from operations, each a non-GAAP financial measure, in communications with investors, including documents filed with the SEC; however, funds from operations and modified funds from operation are not equivalent to our net income or loss of cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP, and stockholders should consider GAAP measures to be more relevant to our operating performance

We use and we disclose to investors, funds from operations, or “FFO,” and modified funds from operations, or “MFFO,” which are non-GAAP financial measures. FFO and MFFO are not equivalent to our net income or loss or cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP, and investors should consider GAAP measures to be more relevant to evaluating our operating performance and ability to pay distributions. FFO and MFFO and GAAP net income differ because FFO and MFFO exclude gains or losses from sales of property and asset impairment write-downs, and add back depreciation and amortization and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. MFFO further excludes acquisition-related expenses, amortization of above- and below-market leases, fair value adjustments of derivative financial instruments, deferred rent receivables and the adjustments of such items related to non-controlling interests.

Because of these differences, FFO and MFFO may not be accurate indicators of our operating performance, especially during periods in which we are acquiring properties. In addition, FFO and MFFO are not indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and investors should not consider FFO and MFFO as alternatives to cash flows from operations or an indication of our liquidity, or indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. Neither the SEC nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO and MFFO. Also, because not all companies calculate FFO and MFFO the same way, comparisons with other companies may not be meaningful.


You are limited in your ability to sell your shares of common stock pursuant to our share redemption program. You may not be able to sell any of your shares of our common stock back to us, and if you do sell your shares, you may not receiveIf reopened at some future time, the price you paid.

Our share redemption program may provide you with a limited opportunity to have your shares of our common stock redeemed by us after you have held them for at least one year, subject to the significant conditions and limitations. SharesSubject to the board of directors discretion, shares will generally be redeemed under the share redemption program at a price equal to or at a discount from the lesser of (1) the average gross price per share the original purchaser or purchasers of the shares being redeemed paid to us, which we refer to as the “issue price,” and (2) the current offering price per share for the shares being redeemed. However, ourThe share redemption program contains certain restrictions and limitations, including those relating to the number of shares of our common stock that we can redeem at any given time and limiting the redemption price. Specifically, wethe plan will limit the number of shares to be redeemed during any calendar year to no more than (1) 5.0% of the weighted average of the shares of our common stock outstanding during the prior calendar year and (2) those that could be funded from the net proceeds from the sale of shares under our distribution reinvestment plan in the prior calendar year plus, if we had positive operating cash flow from the previous fiscal year, 1.0% of all operating cash flow from the previous fiscal year. In addition, our board of directors reserves the right to reject any redemption request for any reason or no reason or to amend suspend or terminatesuspend the share redemption program at any time. Therefore, you may not have the opportunity to make a redemption request prior to a termination of the share redemption program and you may not be able to sell any of your shares of common stock back to us pursuant to our share redemption program. Moreover, if you do sell your shares of common stock back to us pursuant to the share redemption program, you may not receive the same price you paid for any shares of our common stock being redeemed.

Our Executive Committee determined an estimated net asset value per share which isof $6.25 for our shares of common stock as of December 31, 2022. You should not rely on the offering priceestimated value per share as being an accurate measure of the current value of our shares of common stock.

On April 13, 2023, the Executive Committee, which is comprised of independent directors, determined an estimated net asset value per share of our common stock of $6.25 as of December 31, 2022. Our Executive Committee’s objective in determining the estimated net asset value per share was to arrive at a value, based on the most recent data available, that it believed was reasonable based on methodologies that it deemed appropriate after consultation with our primary offering (ignoringadvisor. However, the market for commercial real estate can fluctuate quickly and substantially and the value of our assets is expected to change in the future and may decrease. Also, our Executive Committee did not consider certain other factors, such as a liquidity discount to reflect the fact that our shares are not currently traded on a national securities exchange and the limitations on the ability to redeem shares pursuant to our share repurchase plan.

As with any valuation method, the methods used to determine the estimated net asset value per share were based upon a number of assumptions, estimates and judgments that may not be accurate or complete. Our assets have been valued based upon appraisal standards and the values of our assets using these methods are not required to be a reflection of market value under those standards and will not necessarily result in a reflection of fair value under GAAP. Further, different parties using different property-specific and general real estate and capital market assumptions, estimates, judgments and standards could derive a different estimated net asset value per share, which could be significantly different from the estimated net asset value per share determined by our board of directors. The estimated net asset value per share is not a representation or indication that, among other things: a stockholder would be able to realize the estimated value per share if he or she attempts to sell shares; a stockholder would ultimately realize distributions per share equal to the estimated value per share upon liquidation of assets and settlement of our liabilities or upon a sale of our company; shares of our common stock would trade at the estimated net asset value per share on a national securities exchange; a third party would offer the estimated net asset value per share in an arms-length transaction to purchase price discounts for certain categories of purchasers). The offering priceall or substantially all of our shares of common stock for our follow-on offeringstock; or the methodologies used to estimate the net asset value per share would be acceptable to FINRA or ERISA with respect to their respective requirements. Further, the estimated net asset value per share was not determined on an independent basis, may not accurately representcalculated as of a moment in time and the current value of our shares will fluctuate over time as a result of, among other things, future acquisitions or dispositions of assets, at any particular time,developments related to individual assets and is likely to differ fromchanges in the price at which a stockholder could resell his or her shares. Thus, when we repurchase sharesreal estate and capital markets. For additional information on the calculation of our common stock at $10.00estimated net asset value per share as of December 31, 2022, see Item 5, “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Purchases of Equity Securities—Estimated Net Asset Value Per Share.”

Even at lower repurchase prices, the actual valuenet income or loss of the shares maycash flow from operations as determined under GAAP, and stockholders should consider GAAP measures to be substantially less than what we pay and the repurchase may be dilutivemore relevant to our remaining stockholders.

FFO and GAAP net income differ because FFO excludes gains or losses from sales of operations.

Because of the U.S. financial services industry. The Dodd-Frank Act requires various federal agencies to adopt hundreds of new rules to implement the Dodd-Frank Act and to deliver to Congress numerous studies and reports that may influence future legislation. The Dodd-Frank Act leaves significant discretion to federal agencies as to exactly how to implement the broad provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. As a result, many of the details and much of the impact of the Dodd-Frank Actthese differences, FFO may not be known for some timeaccurate indicators of our operating performance, especially during periods in which we are acquiring properties. In addition, FFO is not indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and investors should not consider FFO as an alternative to cash flows from operations or an indication of our liquidity, or indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. Neither the full extentSEC nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the impact ofadjustments that we use to calculate FFO. Also, because not all companies calculate FFO the Dodd-Frank Act on our operations is currently unclear. The changes resulting from the Dodd-Frank Actsame way, comparisons with other companies may impact the profitability of business activities, require changes to certain business practices, impose more stringent capital, liquidity and leverage requirements or otherwise adversely affect our business.

Further, we maynot be required to invest significant management attention and resources to evaluate and make any changes necessary to comply with new statutory and regulatory requirements under the Dodd-Frank Act, which may negatively impact results of operations and financial condition.

The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber-attack or cyber-intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments, and cyber-terrorists, has generally increased as the Internet,number, intensity, and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Even though we may not be specifically targeted, cyber-attacks on the U.S. government, financial markets, financial institutions, or other major businesses, including tenants, could disrupt our normal business operations and networks, which may in turn have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

We may change our investment and operational policies without stockholder consent.



Except for changes to the investment restrictions contained in our charter, which require stockholder consent to amend, we may change our investment and operational policies, including our policies with respect to investments, operations, indebtedness, capitalization and distributions, at any time without the consent of our stockholders, which could result in our making investments that are different from, and possibly riskier or more highly leveraged than, the types of investments contemplated by our current investment policies. A change in our investment strategy may, among other things, increase our exposure to interest rate risk, default risk and real estate market fluctuations, all of which could materially affect our ability to achieve our investment objectives.

On April 6, 2023, the Executive Committee of the board of directors approved the previously-announced New Direction Plans to reposition the Company's assets into the self-storage asset class and away from office, retail, and light industrial assets. The Executive Committee is in the process of carrying out the New Direction Plans with the
objective of maximizing shareholder value. There can be no assurances the objectives of the New Direction Plan will be met.

Pursuant to Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act, we are required to annually update our prospectus so that the financial statements and other information contained or incorporated by referencea general reduction in the prospectus is not more than sixteen months old. In order to comply with Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act, we are required to file a post-effective amendment to our registration statement containing an updated prospectus prior to April 30th of each year. If the SEC has not declared such post-effective amendment effective by April 30th of each year, we are required to halt our public offering until such time as the SEC declares the post-effective amendment effective. We failed to file the post-effective amendment required to be filed by April 30, 2014 and continued to offer and sell our shares to the public after such date.  The offer and sale of securities in our follow-on offering after April 30, 2014 failed to comply fully with Section 5 of the Securities Act and on May 30, 2014 we temporarily suspended sales of our common stock.  As a consequence, certain stockholders may have the right to rescind their purchase of shares.  For the period from May 1, 2014 to May 30, 2014, the date we suspended our follow-on offering, we sold 85,569 shares of our common stock, including 19,638 shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment program. On June 5, 2014, we filed a post-effective amendment to our registration statement updating our prospectus pursuant to Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act, which registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on July 7, 2014.


Stockholders who purchased shares of our common stock between May 1, 2014 to May 30, 2014, may have the right to rescind their purchase of shares of our common stock and require us to reacquire their shares at a price equal to the price originally paid for such shares, plus interest, less the amount of any income (i.e., dividends) received bycredit available in the investormarkets in which we conduct business.

Risks Related to Conflicts of Interest


Because a number of Hartman


Other affiliated real estate programs, usewhich we sponsor or provide management and advisory services, have investment strategies that are similar to ours, our advisor and its and ourours. Our executive officers will face conflicts of interest relating to the purchase and leasing of properties and other investments, and such conflicts may not be resolved in our favor.



Although our sponsorwe generally seeksseek to avoid simultaneous public or private offerings of funds that have a substantially similar mix of fund characteristics, including targeted investment types, investment objectives and criteria, and

anticipated fund terms, there may be periods during which one or more Hartman-sponsoredsponsored programs are seeking to invest in similar properties and other real estate-related investments. As a result, we may be buying properties and other real estate-related investments at the same time as one or more of the other Hartman-sponsoredsponsored programs managed by our officers and employees, of our advisor and/or its affiliates, and these other Hartman-sponsoredsponsored programs may use investment strategies that are similar to ours. Our executive officers and the executive officers of our advisor are also the executive officers of other Hartman-sponsoredaffiliate-sponsored REITs and their advisors, the general partners of Hartman-sponsored partnershipsreal estate investment programs and/or the advisors or fiduciaries of other Hartman-sponsoredaffiliate-sponsored programs, and these entities are and will be under common control. There is a risk that our advisor will choose a property that provides lower returns to us than a property purchased by another Hartman-sponsoredsponsored program. In the event these conflicts arise, we cannot assure stockholders that our best interests will be met when officers and employees acting on behalf of our advisor and on behalf of advisors and managers of other Hartman-sponsoredsponsored programs decide whether to allocate any particular property to us or to another Hartman-sponsoredsponsored program or affiliate of our advisor, which may have an investment strategy that is similar to ours. In addition, we may acquire properties in geographic areas where other Hartman-sponsoredaffiliate-sponsored programs own properties. If one of the other Hartman-sponsoredsponsored programs attracts a tenant that we are competing for, we could suffer a loss of revenue due to delays in locating another suitable tenant. Stockholders will not have the opportunity to evaluate the manner in which these conflicts of interest are resolved before or after making an investment.







Our advisor and its affiliates, including all of our executive officers and some of our directors, will face conflicts of interest caused by their compensation arrangements with us, which could result in actions that are not in the long-term best interests of our stockholders.

The fees our advisor receiveswe may receive in connection with transactions involving the purchase and management of an asset are based on the cost of the investment, including the amount budgeted for the development, construction, and improvement of each asset, and not based on the quality of the investment or the quality of the services rendered to us.the sponsored program. This may influence our advisorus to recommend riskier transactions to us. Furthermore, thesponsored programs. As advisor, we will refund these fees to the extent they are based on budgeted amounts that prove too high once development,

In addition, the terms of our convertible preferred stock provide for its conversion into shares of common stock if we terminate the advisory agreement prior to the listing of our shares for trading on a national securities exchange other than as a result of the advisor’s material breach of the advisory agreement. In addition, the conversion feature of our convertible preferred stock could cause us to make different investment or disposition decisions than we would otherwise make, in order to avoid the stock conversion. Moreover, our advisor has the right to terminate the advisory agreement for any reason upon 60 days’ notice and thereby trigger the conversion of the convertible preferred stock, which could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control that might otherwise be in our stockholders’ best interests.

Executive officers and key personnel of our advisor and property manager will face competing demands on their time, and this may cause our return to suffer.



We rely upon theour executive officers and employees of our advisor and our property manager to conduct our day-to day operations and performance. These persons also conduct the day-to-day operations of other Hartman-sponsoredsponsored programs and may have other business interests as well. Because these persons have competing interests on their time and resources, they may have conflicts of interest in allocating their time between our business and these other activities. During times of





intense activity in other programs and ventures, they may devote less time and resources to our business than is necessary or appropriate. If this occurs, we may lose the opportunity to enter into or renew a lease or to purchase or sell a property and the returns on our investments may suffer. Our advisor holdsexecutive officers and employees have a fiduciary relationship to us and to our stockholders’ and will endeavor to avoid putting us in a situation where we would lose an economic opportunity due to the inability of our advisor or property manager to perform a necessary task.

As a result, these individuals owe fiduciary duties to these other entities and their investors, which may conflict with the fiduciary duties that they owe to us and our stockholders. Their loyalties to these other entities and investors could result in action or inaction that is detrimental to our business, which could harm the implementation of our business strategy and our investment and leasing opportunities. Conflicts with our business and interests are most likely to arise from involvement in activities related to (1) allocation of new investments and management time and services between us and the other entities, (2) the timing and terms of the investment in or sale of an asset, (3) development of our properties by affiliates of our advisor, (4) investments with affiliates of our advisor, (5) compensation to our advisor, and (6) our relationship with our property manager.which we are the advisor. If we do not successfully implement our business strategy, we may be unable to generate the cash needed to make distributions to stockholders and to maintain or increase the value of our assets.

Existing shareholders will be diluted upon conversion of the convertible preferred stock.



Our former advisor, which as of July 1, 2020 is wholly owned by us, purchased 1,000 shares of our convertible preferred stock for an aggregate purchase price of $10,000. Prior to our acquisition of the 70% of the advisor owned by affiliates of Allen Hartman, 700 shares of our convertible preferred stock were distributed to the affiliates of Allen Hartman. Under limited circumstances, these shares may be converted into shares of our common stock, resulting in dilution of our stockholders’ interest in us. Our convertible preferred stock will convert to shares of common stock if (1) we have made total distributions on then outstanding shares of our common stock equal to the issue price of those shares plus a 6% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on the issue price of those outstanding shares, (2) we list our common stock for trading on a national securities exchange if the sum of prior distributions on then outstanding shares of our common stock plus the aggregate market value of our common stock (based on the 30-day average closing price) meets the same 6% performance threshold, or (3) our advisory agreement with our advisor expires without renewal or is terminated (other than because of a material breach by our advisor), and at the time of such expiration or termination we are deemed to have met the foregoing 6% performance threshold based on our enterprise value and prior distributions, and, at or subsequent to the expiration or termination, the stockholders actually realize such level of performance upon listing or through total distributions. In general, our
16


convertible preferred stock will convert into shares of common stock with a value equal to 15% of the excess of our enterprise value plus the aggregate value of distributions paid to date on then outstanding shares of our common stock over the aggregate issue price of those outstanding shares plus a 6% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on the issue price of those outstanding shares. With respect to conversion in connection with the termination of the advisory agreement, this calculation is made at the time of termination even though the actual conversion may occur later or not at all. As a result, following conversion, the holder of the convertible preferred stock will be entitled to a portion of amounts distributable to our stockholders, which such amounts distributable to the holder could be significant.


Our advisor and Mr. Hartman can influence whether we terminate the advisory agreement or allow it to expire without renewal, or whether our common stock is listed for trading on a national securities exchange. Accordingly, our advisor can influence both the conversion of the convertible preferred stock issued to it, and the resulting dilution of other stockholders’ interests.


Risks Related to Our Business in General


The recent downturn in the credit markets has increased the cost of borrowing and has made financing difficult to obtain, each of which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and business.

Recent events in the financial markets have had an adverse impact on the credit markets and, as a result, the availability of credit has become more expensive and difficult to obtain. Some lenders are imposing more stringent restrictions on the terms of credit and there may be a general reduction in the amount of credit available in the markets in which we conduct






business. The negative impact of the tightening of the credit markets may have a material adverse effect on us resulting from, but not limited to, an inability to finance the acquisition of real estate assets on favorable terms, if at all, increased financing costs or financing with increasingly restrictive covenants.


We are uncertain of our sources for funding our future capital needs. If we cannot obtain debt or equity financing on acceptable terms, our ability to acquire real estate assets and to expand our operations will be adversely affected.

The remaining net proceeds from our follow-on offering will be used for investments in real properties, real estate securities and debt-related investments, for payment of operating expenses and for payment of various fees and expenses such as acquisition fees, origination fees, asset management fees and property management fees. We establish a general working capital reserve out of the net proceeds from our follow-on offering. Accordingly, in the event that we develop a need for additional capital in the future for investments, the improvement of our real properties or for any other reason, sources of funding may not be available to us. If we cannot establish reserves out of cash flow generated by our real estate assets or out of net sale proceeds in non-liquidating sale transactions, or obtain debt or equity financing on acceptable terms, our ability to acquire real estate assets and to expand our operations will be adversely affected. As a result, we would be less likely to achieve portfolio diversification and our investment objectives, which may negatively impact our results of operations and reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.


Non-traded REITs have been the subject of increased scrutiny by regulators and media outlets resulting from inquiries and investigations initiated by FINRA and the SEC. We could also become the subject of scrutiny and may face difficulties in raising capital should negative perceptions develop regarding non-traded REITs.

Our securities, like other non-traded REITs, were sold through the independent broker-dealer channel (i.e., U.S. broker-dealers that are not affiliated with money center banks or similar financial institutions). Governmental and self-regulatory organizations like the SEC and FINRA impose and enforce regulations on broker-dealers, investment banking firms, investment advisers and similar financial services companies. Self-regulatory organizations such as FINRA adopt rules, subject to approval by the SEC, that govern aspects of the financial services industry and conduct periodic examinations of the operations of registered investment dealers and broker-dealers.

Recently, FINRA has initiated investigations of broker-dealers with respect to the sales practices related to the sale of shares of non-traded REITS. These proceedings have resulted in increased regulatory scrutiny from the SEC regarding non-traded REITs. As a result of this increased scrutiny and accompanying negative publicity and coverage by media outlets, FINRA may impose additional restrictions on sales practices in the independent broker-dealer channel for non-traded REITs, and accordingly we may face increased difficulties in raising capital in the future. This could result in a reduction in the returns achieved on those investments as a result of a smaller capital base limiting our investments. If we become the subject of scrutiny, even if we have complied with all applicable laws and regulations, responding to such scrutiny could be expensive and distracting our management.


FINRA has also adopted changes to rules relating to information required to be included on customer account statements by registered broker dealers. In order to assist broker dealers in complying with the new rules, we were required to obtain independent valuations of our assets to determine an estimated per share value of our common stock more frequently than under prior regulations. Compliance with these new rules and future rule changes by FINRA could increase our operating expenses which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.


Risks Related To Our Organizational Structure



Maryland law and our organizational documents limit your right to bring claims against our officers and directors.


Maryland law provides that a director will not have any liability as a director so long as he or she performs his or her duties in accordance with the applicable standard of conduct. In addition, our charter provides that, subject to the applicable limitations set forth therein or under Maryland law, no director or officer will be liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages. Our charter also provides that we will generally indemnify and advance expenses to our directors, our officers, our advisor and its affiliates for losses they may incur by reason of their service in those capacities subject to any limitations under Maryland law or in our charter. As a result, we and our stockholders may have more limited rights against these persons than might otherwise exist under common law. In addition, we may be obligated to fund the defense costs incurred by these persons in some cases. However, our charter provides that we may not indemnify our directors, our advisor





and its affiliates for loss or liability suffered by them or hold our directors or our advisor and its affiliates harmless for loss or liability suffered by us unless they have determined that the course of conduct that caused the loss or liability was in our best interests, they were acting on our behalf or performing services for us, the liability was not the result of negligence or misconduct by our non-independent directors, our advisor and its affiliates or gross negligence or willful misconduct by our independent directors, and the indemnification or obligation to hold harmless is recoverable only out of our net assets, including the proceeds of insurance, and not from the stockholders.



The limit on the percentage of shares of our common stock that any person may own may discourage a takeover or business combination that may benefit our stockholders.


Our charter restricts the direct or indirect ownership by one person or entity to no more than 9.8% of the value of our then outstanding shares of capital stock (which includes common stock and any preferred stock we may issue) and no more than 9.8% of the value or number of shares, whichever is more restrictive, of our then outstanding common stock unless exempted by our board of directors. This restriction may discourage a change of control of us and may deter individuals or entities from making tender offers for shares of our common stock on terms that might be financially attractive to stockholders or which may cause a change in our management. In addition to deterring potential transactions that may be favorable to our stockholders, these provisions may also decrease your ability to sell your shares of our common stock.



Maryland law prohibits certain business combinations, which may make it more difficult for us to be acquired.



Under Maryland law, “business combinations” between a Maryland corporation and an interested stockholder or an affiliate of an interested stockholder are prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. These business combinations include a merger, consolidation, share exchange, or, in circumstances specified in the statute, an asset transfer or issuance or reclassification of equity securities. An interested stockholder is defined as:



17


any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of the then outstanding voting stock of the corporation; or



an affiliate or associate of the corporation who, at any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question, was the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the voting power of the then outstanding voting stock of the corporation.



A person is not an interested stockholder under the statute if the board of directors approved in advance the transaction by which he otherwise would have become an interested stockholder. However, in approving a transaction, the board of directors may provide that its approval is subject to compliance, at or after the time of approval, with any terms and conditions determined by the board.



After the expiration of the five-year period described above, any business combination between the Maryland corporation and an interested stockholder must generally be recommended by the board of directors of the corporation and approved by the affirmative vote of at least:



80% of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of the then outstanding shares of voting stock of the corporation; and



two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of voting stock of the corporation other than shares held by the interested stockholder with whom or with whose affiliate the business combination is to be effected or held by an affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder.



These super-majority vote requirements do not apply if the corporation’s common stockholders receive a minimum price, as defined under Maryland law, for their shares in the form of cash or other consideration in the same form as previously paid by the interested stockholder for its shares. Maryland law also permits various exemptions from these provisions, including business combinations that are exempted by the board of directors before the time that the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. The business combination statute may discourage others from trying to acquire control of us and increase the difficulty of consummating any offer.







Maryland law also limits the ability of a third party to buy a large stake in us and exercise voting power in electing directors.



Maryland law provides a second anti-takeover statute, the Control Share Acquisition Act, which provides that “control shares” of a Maryland corporation acquired in a “control share acquisition” have no voting rights except to the extent approved by the corporation’s disinterested stockholders by a vote of two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter. Shares of stock owned by interested stockholders, that is, by the acquirer, by officers or by directors who are employees of the corporation, are excluded from the vote on whether to accord voting rights to the control shares. “Control shares” are voting shares of stock that would entitle the acquirer to exercise voting power in electing directors within specified ranges of voting power. Control shares do not include shares the acquiring person is then entitled to vote as a result of having previously obtained stockholder approval. A “control share acquisition” means the acquisition of control shares. The control share acquisition statute does not apply (1) to shares acquired in a merger, consolidation or share exchange if the corporation is a party to the transaction or (2) to acquisitions approved or exempted by a corporation’s charter or bylaws. Our charter contains a provision exempting from the Control Share Acquisition Act any and all acquisitions by any person of shares of our stock. We can offer no assurance that this provision will not be amended or eliminated at any time in the future. This statute could have the effect of discouraging offers from third parties to acquire us and increasing the difficulty of successfully completing this type of offer by anyone other than our affiliates or any of their affiliates.



18


Our charter includes an anti-takeover provision that may discourage a stockholder from launching a tender offer for our shares.



Our charter provides that any tender offer made by a stockholder, including any “mini-tender” offer, must comply with most provisions of Regulation 14D of the Exchange Act. The offering stockholder must provide our company notice of such tender offer at least ten business days before initiating the tender offer. If the offering stockholder does not comply with these requirements, our company will have the right to redeem that stockholder’s shares and any shares acquired in such tender offer. In addition, the non-complying stockholder shall be responsible for all of our company’s expenses in connection with that stockholder’s noncompliance. This provision of our charter may discourage a stockholder from initiating a tender offer for our shares and prevent a stockholder from receiving a premium price for their shares in such a transaction.



Your investment return may be reduced if we are required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act; if we are subject to registration under the Investment Company Act, we will not be able to continue our business.


Neither we, our operating partnership nor any of our subsidiaries intend to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. Our operating partnership’s and subsidiaries’ intended investments in real estate will represent the substantial majority of our total asset mix. In order for us not to be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act, we intend to engage, through our operating partnership and our wholly and majority owned subsidiaries, primarily in the business of buying real estate. These investments must be made within a year after our follow-on offering ends.


We expect that most of our assets will be held through wholly-owned or majority-owned subsidiaries of our operating partnership. We expect that most of these subsidiaries will be outside the definition of an “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act as they are generally expected to hold at least 60% of their assets in real property. Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act defines an investment company as any issuer that is or holds itself out as being engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities. Section 3(a)(1)(C) of the Investment Company Act defines an investment company as any issuer that is engaged or proposes to engage in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities and owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of the issuer’s total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis, which we refer to as the “40% test.” Excluded from the term “investment securities,” among other things, are U.S. government securities and securities issued by majority-owned subsidiaries that are not themselves investment companies and are not relying on the exception from the definition of investment company set forth in Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act.





We believe that we, our operating partnership and most of the subsidiaries of our operating partnership will not fall within either definition of investment company under Section 3(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act as we intend to invest primarily in real property, through our wholly or majority-owned subsidiaries, the majority of which we expect to have at least 60% of their assets in real property. As these subsidiaries would be investing either solely or primarily in real property, they would be outside of the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act. We are organized as a holding company that conducts its businesses primarily through our operating partnership, which in turn is a holding company conducting its business through its subsidiaries. Both we and our operating partnership intend to conduct our operations so that we comply with the 40% test. We will monitor our holdings to ensure continuing and ongoing compliance with this test. In addition, we believe that neither we nor our operating partnership will be considered an investment company under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act because neither we nor our operating partnership will engage primarily or hold itself out as being engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities. Rather, through our operating partnership’spartnerships wholly owned or majority owned subsidiaries, we and our operating partnership will be primarily engaged in the non-investment company businesses of these subsidiaries, namely the business of purchasing or otherwise acquiring real property.

19



In the event that the value of investment securities held by a subsidiary of our operating partnership were to exceed 40% of the value of its total assets, we expect that subsidiary to be able to rely on the exclusion from the definition of “investment company” provided by Section 3(c)(5)(C) of the Investment Company Act. Section 3(c)(5)(C), as interpreted by the staff of the SEC, requires each of our subsidiaries relying on this exception to invest at least 55% of its portfolio in “mortgage and other liens on and interests in real estate,” which we refer to as “qualifying real estate assets,” and maintain at least 80% of its assets in qualifying real estate assets or other real estate-related assets. The remaining 20% of the portfolio can consist of miscellaneous assets. What we buy and sell is therefore limited by these criteria. How we determine to classify our assets for purposes of the Investment Company Act will be based in large measure upon no-action letters issued by the SEC staff in the past and other SEC interpretive guidance and, in the absence of SEC guidance, on our view of what constitutes a qualifying real estate asset and a real estate-related asset. These no-action positions were issued in accordance with factual situations that may be substantially different from the factual situations we may face, and a number of these no-action positions were issued more than ten years ago. Pursuant to this guidance, and depending on the characteristics of the specific investments, certain mortgage loans, participations in mortgage loans, mortgage-backed securities, mezzanine loans, joint venture investments and the equity securities of other entities may not constitute qualifying real estate assets and therefore investments in these types of assets may be limited. No assurance can be given that the SEC or its staff will concur with our classification of our assets. Future revisions to the Investment Company Act or further guidance from the SEC staff may cause us to lose our exclusion from the definition of investment company or force us to re-evaluate our portfolio and our investment strategy. Such changes may prevent us from operating our business successfully.


There can be no assurance that the laws and regulations governing the Investment Company Act status of REITs, including more specific or different guidance regarding these exclusions that may be published by the SEC or its staff, will not change in a manner that adversely affects our operations. In addition, the SEC or its staff could take action that results in our or our subsidiary’s failure to maintain an exception or exemption from the Investment Company Act.


In the event that we, or our operating partnership, were to acquire assets that could make either entity fall within one of the definitions of an investment company under Section 3(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act, we believe that we would still qualify for an exclusion from registration pursuant to Section 3(c)(6) of the Investment Company Act. Although the SEC staff has issued little interpretive guidance with respect to Section 3(c)(6), we believe that we and our operating partnership may rely on Section 3(c)(6) if 55% of the assets of our operating partnership consist of, and at least 55% of the income of our operating partnership is derived from, qualifying real estate assets owned by wholly owned or majority-owned subsidiaries of our operating partnership.


To ensure that neither we, our operating partnership nor any of our subsidiaries are required to register as an investment company, each entity may be unable to sell assets that it would otherwise want to sell and may need to sell assets that it would otherwise wish to retain. In addition, we, our operating partnership or our subsidiaries may be required to acquire additional income- or loss-generating assets that we might not otherwise acquire or forego opportunities to acquire interests in companies that we would otherwise want to acquire. Although we, our operating partnership and our subsidiaries intend to monitor our portfolio periodically and prior to each acquisition and disposition, any of these entities may not be able to remain outside the definition of investment company or maintain an exclusion from the definition of an investment company. If we, our operating partnership or our subsidiaries are required to register as an investment company





but fail to do so, the unregistered entity would be prohibited from engaging in our business, and criminal and civil actions could be brought against such entity. In addition, the contracts of such entity would be unenforceable unless a court required enforcement, and a court could appoint a receiver to take control of the entity and liquidate its business.



Stockholders have limited control over changes in our policies and operations.



20


Our board of directors determines our major policies, including our policies regarding financing, growth, debt capitalization, REIT qualification and distributions. Our board of directors may amend or revise these and other policies without a vote of the stockholders. Our charter sets forth the stockholder voting rights required to be set forth therein under the NASAA REIT Guidelines. Under our charter and the Maryland General Corporation Law, our stockholders currently have a right to vote only on the following matters:



the election or removal of directors;

any amendment of our charter, exceptprovided that our board of directors may amend our charter without stockholder approval to:

change our name;

increase or decrease the aggregate number of our shares;

increase or decrease the number of our shares of any class or series that we have the authority to issue;

classify or reclassify any unissued shares by setting or changing the preferences, conversion or other rights, restrictions, limitations as to distributions, qualifications or terms and conditions of redemption of such shares;

and

effect reverse stock splits; and

after the listing of our shares of common stock on a national securities exchange, opting into any of the provisions of Subtitle 8 of Title 3 of the Maryland General Corporation Law (see “Description of Shares — Provisions of Maryland Law and our Charter and Bylaws – Subtitle 8” below);

our liquidation and dissolution; and

our being a party to any merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition of substantially all of our assets (notwithstanding that Maryland law may not require stockholder approval).



All other matters are subject to the discretion of our board of directors.



We may issue preferred stock or other classes of common stock,stock; which issuance could adversely affect the holders of our common stock issued pursuant to our public offerings.

Investors in our public offerings


Existing shareholders do not have preemptive rights to any shares issued by us in the future. We may issue, without stockholder approval, preferred stock or other classes of common stock with rights that could dilute the value of your shares of common stock. However, the issuance of preferred stock must be approved by a majority of our independent directors not otherwise interested in the transaction, who will have access, at our expense, to our legal counsel or to independent legal counsel. The issuance of preferred stock or other classes of common stock could increase the number of stockholders entitled to distributions without simultaneously increasing the size of our asset base.


Our board of directors may amend our charter from time to time to increase or decrease the aggregate number of authorized shares of capital stock or the number of authorized shares of capital stock of any class or series without stockholder approval. If we ever created and issued preferred stock with a distribution preference over common stock, payment of any distribution preferences of outstanding preferred stock would reduce the amount of funds available for the payment of distributions on our common stock. Further, holders of preferred stock are normally entitled to receive a preference payment in the event we liquidate, dissolve or wind up before any payment is made to our common stockholders, likely reducing the amount common stockholders would otherwise receive upon such an occurrence.



Our UPREIT structure may result in potential conflicts of interest with limited partners in our operating partnership whose interests may not be aligned with those of our stockholders.


21


We are structured as an “UPREIT,” which stands for “umbrella partnership real estate investment trust.” We use the UPREIT structure because a contribution of property directly to us is generally a taxable transaction to the contributing





property owner. In the UPREIT structure, a contributor of a property who desires to defer taxable gain on the transfer of a property may transfer the property to our operating partnership in exchange for limited partnership units and defer taxation of gain until the contributor later exchanges his or her limited partnership units, typically on a one-for-one basis, for shares of our common stock. We believe that using an UPREIT structure gives us an advantage in acquiring desired properties from persons who may not otherwise sell their properties because of unfavorable tax results.


We may issue limited partner interests of our operating partnership in connection with certain transactions. Limited partners in our operating partnership have the right to vote on certain amendments to the operating partnership agreement, as well as on certain other matters. Persons holding such voting rights may exercise them in a manner that conflicts with the interests of our stockholders. As general partner of our operating partnership, we are obligated to act in a manner that is in the best interest of all partners of our operating partnership. Circumstances may arise in the future when the interests of limited partners in our operating partnership may conflict with the interests of our stockholders. These conflicts may be resolved in a manner stockholders do not believe are in their best interest.



Adverse economic conditions will negatively affect our returns and profitability.



Our operating results may be affected by many factors, including a continued or exacerbated general economic slowdown experienced by the nation as a whole or by the local economies where our properties and the properties underlying our other real estate-related investments are located. These factors include:



poor economic conditions may result in defaults by tenants of our properties;

job transfers and layoffs may cause tenant vacancies to increase;

increasing concessions, reduced rental rates or capital improvements may be required to maintain occupancy levels;

increased insurance premiums may reduce funds available for distribution or, to the extent such increases are passed through to tenants, may lead to tenant defaults. Also, increased insurance premiums may make it difficult to increase rents to tenants on turnover, which may adversely affect our ability to increase our returns.

changes in general economic or local conditions;

changes in supply of or demand for similar or competing properties in an area;

changes in interest rates and availability of permanent mortgage funds that may render the sale of a property difficult or unattractive;

the illiquidity of real estate investments generally;

changes in tax, real estate, environmental and zoning laws; and

periods of high interest rates and tight money supply.


For these and other reasons, we cannot assure stockholders that we will be profitable or that we will realize growth in the value of our real estate properties.


The length and severity of any economic downturn cannot be predicted. Our operations could be negatively affected to the extent that an economic downturn is prolonged or becomes more severe.



General Risks Related to Investments in Real Estate



22


Our operating results will be affected by economic and regulatory changes that impact the real estate market in general.



Our investments in commercial properties will be subject to risks generally attributable to the ownership of real property, including:



changes in global, national, regional or local economic, demographic or real estate market conditions;

conditions, including any actual or perceived instability in the U.S. banking system;

changes in supply of or demand for similar properties in an area;

increased competition for real property investments targeted by our investment strategy;

bankruptcies, financial difficulties or lease defaults by our residents;

tenants;

changes in interest rates and availability of financing;





changes in the terms of available financing, including more conservative loan-to-value requirements and shorter debt maturities;

competition from other residentialcommercial properties;

the inability or unwillingness of residentstenants to pay rent increases;

changes in government rules, regulations and fiscal policies, including changes in tax, real estate, environmental and zoning laws;

and

the severe curtailment of liquidity for certain real estate related assets; and

rent restrictions due to government program requirements.


assets.


All of these factors are beyond our control. Any negative changes in these factors could affect our ability to meet our obligations and make distributions to stockholders.



We are unable to predict future changes in global, national, regional or local economic, demographic or real estate market conditions. For example, a recession or rise in interest rates could make it more difficult for us to lease or dispose of properties and could make alternative interest-bearing and other investments more attractive and therefore potentially lower the relative value of the real estate assets we acquire. These conditions, or others we cannot predict, may adversely affect our results of operations and returns to our stockholders. In addition, the value of the properties we acquire may decrease following the date we acquire such properties due to the risks described above or any other unforeseen changes in market conditions. If the value of our properties decreases, we may be forced to dispose of our properties at a price lower than the price we paid to acquire our properties, which could adversely impact the results of our operations and our ability to make distributions and return capital to our investors.



Acquisition and ownership of real estate is subject to risks associated with environmental hazards.



Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real property may be liable for the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. The costs of removal or remediation could be substantial. Such laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Environmental laws also may impose restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require substantial expenditures. Environmental laws provide for sanctions in the event of noncompliance and may be enforced by governmental agencies or, in certain circumstances, by private parties. Certain environmental laws and common law principles could be used to impose liability for release of and exposure to hazardous substances, including asbestos-containing materials into the air, and third parties may seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury or property damage associated with exposure to released hazardous substances. The cost of defending against claims of liability, of compliance with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated
23


property, or of paying personal injury claims could materially adversely affect our business, assets or results of operations and, consequently, amounts available for distribution. We may be liable for environmental hazards at our properties, including those created by prior owners or occupants, existing tenants, abutters or other persons. The properties that we plan to develop or acquire could include automobile and truck repair and maintenance facilities and tanks for the storage of petroleum products and other hazardous substances, all of which create the potential for environmental damages. As a result, we may be expected to regularly incur environmental clean-up costs. We intend to include in the leases that we entered with future tenants, an agreement for such tenant to indemnify us from all environmental liabilities arising its activities at such property during the term of the lease. Despite this indemnity, various federal and state laws impose environmental liabilities upon property owners, such as us, for any environmental damages arising on properties they own or occupy, and we cannot be assured that we will not be held liable for environmental clean-up at our properties, including environmental damages at sites we own and lease. As an owner or previous owner of properties which contain environmental hazards, we also may be liable to pay damages to governmental agencies or third parties for costs and damages they incur arising from environmental hazards at the properties. Moreover, the costs and damages which may arise from environmental hazards are often difficult to project and our future tenants may not have sufficient resources to pay its environmental liabilities.







Properties that have significant vacancies could be difficult to sell, which could diminish the return on stockholders’ investments.



A property may incur vacancies either by the continued default of tenants under their leases or the expiration of tenant leases. If vacancies continue for a long period of time, we may suffer reduced revenues resulting in decreased distributions to stockholders. In addition, the value of the property could be diminished because the market value of a particular property will depend principally upon the value of the leases of such property.



Our properties may be subject to impairment charges.

On a quarterly basis, we assess whether there are any indicators that the value of our properties may be impaired. A property’s value is considered to be impaired only if the estimated aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property are less than the carrying value of the property. In our estimate of cash flows, we consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, the effects of demand, competition and other factors. If we are evaluating the potential sale of an asset or development alternatives, the undiscounted future cash flows analysis considers the most likely course of action at the balance sheet date based on current plans, intended holding periods and available market information. We are required to make subjective assessments as to whether there are impairments in the value of our properties. These assessments may be influenced by factors beyond our control, such as early vacating by a tenant or damage to properties due to earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes and other natural disasters, fire, civil unrest, terrorist acts or acts of war. These assessments may have a direct impact on our earnings because recording an impairment charge results in an immediate negative adjustment to earnings. There can be no assurance that we will not take impairment charges in the future related to the impairment of our properties. Any such impairment could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations in the period in which the charge is taken.

Many of our investments will be dependent on tenants for revenue, and lease terminations could reduce our ability to make distributions to stockholders.



The success of our real property investments often will be materially dependent on the financial stability of our tenants. Lease payment defaults by tenants could cause us to reduce the amount of distributions to stockholders. A default by a significant tenant on its lease payments to us would cause us to lose the revenue associated with such lease and cause us to have to find an alternative source of revenue to meet mortgage payments and prevent a foreclosure if the property is subject to a mortgage. In the event of a tenant default, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as landlord and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investment and re-letting our
24


property. If significant leases are terminated, we cannot assure stockholders that we will be able to lease the property for the rent previously received or sell the property without incurring a loss.



We may be unable to secure funds for future tenant improvements, which could adversely impact our ability to make cash distributions to our stockholders.



When tenants do not renew their leases or otherwise vacate their space, in order to attract replacement tenants, we will be required to expend substantial funds for tenant improvements and tenant refurbishments to the vacated space. If we have insufficient capital reserves, we will have to obtain financing from other sources. We intend to establish capital reserves on a property-by-property basis, as we deem necessary. In addition to any reserves we establish, a lender may require escrow of capital reserves in excess of our established reserves. If these reserves or any reserves otherwise established are designated for other uses or are insufficient to meet our cash needs, we may have to obtain financing from either affiliated or unaffiliated sources to fund our cash requirements. We cannot assure stockholders that sufficient financing will be available or, if available, will be available on economically feasible terms or on terms acceptable to us. Moreover, certain reserves required by lenders may be designated for specific uses and may not be available for capital purposes such as future tenant improvements. Additional borrowing for capital purposes will increase our interest expense, and therefore our financial condition and our ability to make cash distributions to our stockholders may be adversely affected. If we do not have enough reserves for capital to supply needed funds for capital improvements throughout the life of the investment in a property and there is insufficient cash available from our operations, we may be required to defer necessary improvements to the property, which may cause the property to suffer from a greater risk of obsolescence or a decline in value, or a greater risk of decreased cash flow as a result of fewer potential tenants being attracted to the property. If this happens, we may not be able to maintain projected rental rates for affected properties, and our results of operations may be negatively impacted. The need for and amount of reserves for capital improvements will be determined on a property by property basis in consultation with our property manager. Generally, we will be responsible for the costs of these capital improvements, which gives rise to the following risks:



cost overruns and delays;


renovations can be disruptive to operations and can displace revenue at the properties, including revenue lost while under renovation and out of service;


the cost of funding renovations and the possibility that financing for these renovations may not be available on attractive terms; and


the risk that the return on our investment in these capital improvements will not be what we expect.



If we have insufficient cash flow from operations to fund needed capital expenditures, we will need to borrow to fund future capital improvements.






We may be unable to sell a property if or when we decide to do so, which could adversely impact our ability to make cash distributions to our stockholders.



We intend to hold the various real properties in which we invest until such time as our advisor determineswe determine that a sale or other disposition appears to be advantageous to achieve our investment objectives or until it appears that such objectives will not be met. Otherwise, our advisor, subject to approval of our board of directors, management may exercise its discretion as to whether and when to sell a property and we will have no obligation to sell properties at any particular time, except upon our liquidation.liquidation. If we dohave not listed the Company's common stock on an established national securities exchange within ten years of the termination of our initial public offering, our charter requires that we begin the process of liquidating our assets or listing our shares within ten yearsobtain the approval of the termination of this primary offering, our charter requires that we hold a stockholders meeting to vote on a proposed alternate strategy for our orderly liquidation unless a majority of our board of directors and a majority of our independent directors voteshareholders to defer such a meeting beyond the tenth anniversary of the termination of our initial public offering. liquidation or approve an alternate strategy. The real estate market is affected, as discussed above, by many factors, such as general economic conditions, availability of financing, interest rates and other factors, including supply and demand, thatwhich are beyond our control. We cannot predict whether we will be able to sell any asset for
25


the price or on the terms set by us, or whether any price or other terms offered by a prospective purchaser would be acceptable to us. We cannot predict the length of time needed to find a willing purchaser and to close the sale of an asset. If we are unable to sell an asset when we determine to do so, it could have a significant adverse effect on our cash flow and results of operations.



Our co-venture partners, co-tenants or other partners in co-ownership arrangements could take actions that decrease the value of an investment to us and lower stockholder’s overall return.



We may enter into joint ventures or other co-ownership arrangements with other Hartman programs or with third parties having investment objectives similar to ours for the acquisition, development or improvement of properties as well as the acquisition of real estate-related investments. We may also purchase and develop properties in joint ventures or in partnerships, co-tenancies or other co-ownership arrangements with the sellers of the properties, affiliates of the sellers, developers or other persons. Such investments may involve risks not otherwise present with other forms of real estate investment, including, for example:



the possibility that our co-venturer, co-tenant or partner in an investment might become bankrupt;


the possibility that a co-venturer, co-tenant or partner in an investment might breach a loan agreement or other agreement or otherwise, by action or inaction, act in a way detrimental to us or the investment;


that such co-venturer, co-tenant or partner may at any time have economic or business interests or goals that are or that become inconsistent with our business interests or goals;


the possibility that we may incur liabilities as the result of the action taken by our partner or co-investor; or


that such co-venturer, co-tenant or partner may be in a position to take action contrary to our instructions or requests or contrary to our policies or objectives, including our policy with respect to qualifying and maintaining our qualification as a REIT.



Any of the above might subject a property to liabilities in excess of those contemplated and thus reduce our returns on that investment.



Uninsured losses relating to real property or excessively expensive premiums for insurance coverage may adversely affect stockholder returns.


Our advisor will attempt


We have a duty to ensure that all of our properties are adequately insured to cover casualty losses. The nature of the activities at certain properties we may acquire will expose us and our operators to potential liability for personal injuries and, in certain instances property damage claims. In addition, there are types of losses, generally catastrophic in nature, such as losses due to wars, acts of terrorism, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, pollution or environmental matters that are uninsurable or not economically insurable, or may be insured subject to limitations, such as large deductibles or co-payments. Insurance risks associated with potential terrorist acts could sharply increase the premiums we pay for coverage against property and casualty claims. Mortgage lenders generally insist that specific coverage against terrorism be





purchased by commercial property owners as a condition for providing mortgage loans. It is uncertain whether such insurance policies will be available, or available at reasonable cost, which could inhibit our ability to finance or refinance our properties. In such instances, we may be required to provide other financial support, either through financial assurances or self-insurance, to cover potential losses. We cannot assure stockholders that we will have adequate coverage for such losses. In the event that any of our properties incurs a casualty loss that is not fully covered by insurance, the value of our assets will be reduced by the amount of any such uninsured loss. In addition, other than the capital reserve or other reserves we may establish, we have no source of funding to repair or reconstruct any uninsured damaged property, and we cannot assure stockholders that any such sources of funding will be available to us for such purposes in the future. Also, to the extent we must pay unexpectedly large amounts for insurance, we could suffer reduced earnings that would result in decreased distributions to stockholders.


26



Our operating results may be negatively affected by potential development and construction delays and result in increased costs and risks, which could diminish the return on stockholders’ investments.



We may invest some or all of the proceeds available for investment in the acquisition, development and/or redevelopment of properties upon which we will develop and construct improvements. We could incur substantial capital obligations in connection with these types of investments. We will be subject to risks relating to uncertainties associated with rezoning for development and environmental concerns of governmental entities and/or community groups and our builder’s ability to control construction costs or to build in conformity with plans, specifications and timetables. The developer or builder’s failure to perform may necessitate legal action by us to rescind the purchase or the construction contract or to compel performance. Performance may also be affected or delayed by conditions beyond the builder’s control. Delays in completion of construction could also give tenants the right to terminate preconstruction leases for space at a newly developed project. We may incur additional risks when we make periodic progress payments or other advances to such builders prior to completion of construction. These and other such factors can result in increased costs of a project or loss of our investment. Substantial capital obligations could delay our ability to make distributions. In addition, we will be subject to normal lease-up risks relating to newly constructed projects. Furthermore, we must rely upon projections of rental income and expenses and estimates of the fair market value of property upon completion of construction when agreeing upon a price to be paid for the property at the time of acquisition of the property. If our projections are inaccurate, we may pay too much for a property, and the return on our investment could suffer.



In addition, we may invest in unimproved real property. Returns from development of unimproved properties are also subject to risks and uncertainties associated with rezoning the land for development and environmental concerns of governmental entities and/or community groups. Although our principal intention is to acquire developed properties and to limit any investment in unimproved property, we principally intend to acquire developed properties; a portion of stockholdersstockholders’ investment nevertheless may be subject to the risks associated with investments in unimproved real property.


If we contract with an affiliate of our advisor to purchase a newly developed property or to develop a parcel that we acquire, we cannot guarantee that any earnest money deposit we make to that affiliate of the advisor or its affiliates would be fully refunded if the work were not performed.


We may enter into one or more contracts, either directly or indirectly through joint ventures, tenant-in-common investments or other co-ownership arrangements with affiliates of our advisor or others, to acquire real property from affiliates of our advisor. Properties acquired from these affiliates may be existing income-producing properties, properties to be developed or properties under development. We anticipate that we will be obligated to pay a substantial earnest money deposit at the time of contracting to acquire such properties. In the case of properties to be developed by HIR Management, our property manager, or its affiliates, we anticipate that we will be required to close the purchase of the property upon completion of the development of the property by HIR Management or its affiliates. At the time of contracting and the payment of the earnest money deposit by us, HIR Management or its affiliates typically will not have acquired title to any real property. Typically, HIR Management or its affiliates will only have a contract to acquire land, a development agreement to develop a building on the land and an agreement with one or more tenants to lease all or part of the property upon its completion. We may enter into such a contract with HIR Management or its affiliates even if at the time of contracting we have not yet raised sufficient proceeds in our offering to enable us to close the purchase of such property. However, we will not be required to close a purchase from HIR Management or its affiliates, and will be entitled to a refund of our earnest money, in the following circumstances:


HIR Management or its affiliates fails to develop the property;







all or a specified portion of the pre-leased tenants fail to take possession under their leases for any reason; or


we are unable to raise sufficient proceeds from our offering to pay the purchase price at closing.


The obligation of HIR Management or its affiliates to refund our earnest money will be unsecured, and no assurance can be made that we would be able to obtain a refund of such earnest money deposit from it under these circumstances since HIR Management is an entity without substantial assets or operations.


Competition with third parties in acquiring properties and other assets may reduce our profitability and the return on stockholders’ investment.



We believe that the current market for properties that meet our investment objectives is highly competitive. We compete with many other entities engaged in real estate investment activities, including individuals, corporations, bank and insurance company investment accounts, other REITs, real estate limited partnerships, and other entities engaged in real estate investment activities, many of which have greater resources than we will. Larger real estate programs may enjoy significant competitive advantages that result from, among other things, a lower cost of capital and enhanced operating efficiencies. In addition, the number of entities and the amount of funds competing for suitable properties may increase. Any such increase would result in increased demand for these assets and therefore increased prices paid for them. If we pay higher prices for properties and other investments, our profitability will be reduced and stockholders may experience a lower return on investment.



A concentration of our investments in any one property class may leave our profitability vulnerable to a downturn in such sector.



At any one time, a significant portion of our investments could be in one property class. As a result, we will be subject to risks inherent in investments in a single type of property. If our investments are substantially in one property class, then the potential effects on our revenues, and as a result, on cash available for distribution to our stockholders, resulting from a downturn in the businesses conducted in those types of properties could be more pronounced than if we had more fully diversified our investments.



27


Failure to succeed in new markets or in new property classes may have adverse consequences on our performance.



We may from time to time commence development activity or make acquisitions outside of our existing market areas or the property classes of our primary focus if appropriate opportunities arise. Our historical experience in our existing markets in developing, owning and operating certain classes of property does not ensure that we will be able to operate successfully in new markets, should we choose to enter them, or that we will be successful in new property classes. We may be exposed to a variety of risks if we choose to enter new markets, including an inability to evaluate accurately local market conditions, to obtain land for development or to identify appropriate acquisition opportunities, to hire and retain key personnel, and a lack of familiarity with local governmental and permitting procedures. In addition, we may abandon opportunities to enter new markets or acquire new classes of property that we have begun to explore for any reason and may, as a result, fail to recover expenses already incurred.



Acquiring or attempting to acquire multiple properties in a single transaction may adversely affect our operations.



From time to time, we may attempt to acquire multiple properties in a single transaction. Portfolio acquisitions are more complex and expensive than single property acquisitions, and the risk that a multiple-property acquisition does not close may be greater than in a single-property acquisition. Portfolio acquisitions may also result in us owning investments in geographically dispersed markets, placing additional demands on our ability to manage the properties in the portfolio. In addition, a seller may require that a group of properties be purchased as a package even though we may not want to purchase one or more properties in the portfolio. In these situations, if we are unable to identify another person or entity to acquire the unwanted properties, we may be required to operate or attempt to dispose of these properties. To acquire multiple properties in a single transaction we may be required to accumulate a large amount of cash. We would expect the returns that we earn on such cash to be less than the ultimate returns in real property and therefore, accumulating such cash could reduce the funds available for distributions. Any of the foregoing events may have an adverse effect on our operations.







Our failure to integrate acquired properties and new personnel could create inefficiencies and reduce the return of stockholders’ investment.



To grow successfully, we must be able to apply our experience in managing real estate to a larger number of properties. In addition, we must be able to integrate new management and operations personnel as our organization grows in size and complexity. Failures in either area will result in inefficiencies that could adversely affect our expected return on our investments and our overall profitability.



Properties in which we may investhave invested may not be readily adaptable to other uses, and if these properties become unprofitable, we may not be able to recoup the value of our investment.



Properties in which we have invested may invest may be specific-use properties that have limited alternative uses. Therefore, ifIf the operations of any of our properties in these sectors become unprofitable due to industry competition, a general deterioration of the applicable industry or otherwise, we may have great difficulty selling the property or we may have to sell the property for substantially less than the amount we paid for it. Should any of these events occur, our income and cash available for distribution could be reduced.



The costs of compliance with environmental laws and other governmental laws and regulations may adversely affect our income and the cash available for any distributions.



28


All real property and the operations conducted on real property are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and human health and safety. These laws and regulations generally govern wastewater discharges, air emissions, the operation and removal of underground and above-ground storage tanks, the use, storage, treatment, transportation and disposal of solid and hazardous materials, and the remediation of contamination associated with disposals. Some of these laws and regulations may impose joint and several liability on tenants, owners or operators for the costs of investigation or remediation of contaminated properties, regardless of fault or the legality of the original disposal. In addition, the presence of these substances, or the failure to properly remediate these substances, may adversely affect our ability to sell or rent such property or to use the property as collateral for future borrowing.



Compliance with new or more stringent laws or regulations or stricter interpretation of existing laws may require material expenditures by us. We cannot assure stockholders that future laws, ordinances or regulations will not impose any material environmental liability, or that the current environmental condition of our properties will not be affected by the operations of the tenants, by the existing condition of the land, by operations in the vicinity of the properties, such as the presence of underground storage tanks, or by the activities of unrelated third parties. In addition, there are various local, state and federal fire, health, life-safety and similar regulations that we may be required to comply with, and that may subject us to liability in the form of fines or damages for noncompliance. Any foreign investments we make will be subject to similar laws in the jurisdictions where they are located.



Our costs associated with complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act may affect cash available for distributions.



Our properties are generally expected to be subject to the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended (Disabilities Act), or similar laws of foreign jurisdictions. Under the Disabilities Act, all places of public accommodation are required to comply with federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. The Disabilities Act has separate compliance requirements for “public accommodations” and “commercial facilities” that generally require that buildings and services be made accessible and available to people with disabilities. The Disabilities Act’s requirements could require removal of access barriers and could result in the imposition of injunctive relief, monetary penalties or, in some cases, an award of damages. We will attempt to acquire properties that comply with the Disabilities Act or similar laws of foreign jurisdictions or place the burden on the seller or other third party, such as a tenant, to ensure compliance with such laws. However, we cannot assure stockholders that we will be able to acquire properties or allocate responsibilities in this manner. If we cannot, our funds used for compliance with these laws may affect cash available for distributions and the amount of distributions.



Any properties we acquire must comply with Title III of the Disabilities Act, to the extent that such properties are “public accommodations” and/or “commercial facilities” as defined by the Disabilities Act. Compliance with the Disabilities Act could require removal of structural barriers to handicapped access in public areas of our properties where such removal is readily achievable.







If we sell properties by providing financing to purchasers, we will bear the risk of default by the purchaser.



If we decide to sell any of our properties, we intend to use commercially reasonable efforts to sell them for cash or in exchange for other property. However, in some instances we may sell our properties by providing financing to purchasers. If we provide financing to purchasers, we will bear the risk of default by the purchaser and will be subject to remedies provided by law, which could negatively impact distributions to our stockholders. There are no limitations or restrictions on our ability to take purchase money obligations. We may, therefore, take a purchase money obligation secured by a mortgage as partial payment for the purchase price of a property. The terms of payment to us generally will be affected by custom in the area where the property being sold is located and the then-prevailing economic conditions. If we receive promissory notes or other property in lieu of cash from property sales, the distribution of the proceeds of sales to our stockholders, or their reinvestment in other assets, will be delayed until the promissory notes or other property are actually paid, sold, refinanced or otherwise disposed of. In some
29


cases, we may receive initial down payments in cash and other property in the year of sale in an amount less than the selling price and subsequent payments will be spread over a number of years. If any purchaser defaults under a financing arrangement with us, it could negatively impact our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.



The impact of damage from catastrophic weather and other natural events may adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.

Certain of our properties may be located in areas that have experienced and may in the future experience severe weather and other catastrophic natural events from time to time, including fires, snow or ice storms, windstorms, tornadoes, hurricanes, flooding and earthquakes. In addition, to the extent that extreme weather continues to occur and changes in precipitation and temperature, we may experience physical damage or decrease in demand for properties located in these areas or affected by these conditions. These adverse weather or natural events could cause substantial damages or losses to our properties which could exceed our insurance coverage. Should the impacts be material in nature or occur for lengthy periods of time, our financial condition or results of operations may be adversely affected. In addition, changes in federal and state legislation and regulation on extreme weather could result in increased capital expenditures to improve the energy efficiency of our properties.

Risks Associated with Debt Financing


We will incur mortgage indebtedness and other


Our borrowings which willmay increase our business risks.


risks and may adversely affect our ability to continue as a going concern.


We financed a portion of the acquisition cost of our real properties with mortgage indebtedness. In addition, we have entered into revolving credit agreements with banks secured by certain real properties. We also may borrow funds if necessary to satisfy the requirement that we distribute to stockholders at least 90% of our annual REIT taxable income, or otherwise as is necessary or advisable to assure that we maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.



There is no limitation on the amount we may invest in any single property or other asset or on the amount we can borrow for the purchase of any individual property or other investment. Our board of directors has adopted a policy to generally limit our aggregate borrowings to approximately 50% of the aggregate value of our assets unless substantial justification exists that borrowing a greater amount is in our best interests. Our policy limitation, however, does not apply to individual real estate assets and only will apply once we have ceased raising capital under this or any subsequent offering and invested substantially all of our capital. As a result, we expect to borrow more than 50% of the contract purchase price of each real estate asset we acquire to the extent our board of directors determines that borrowing these amounts is prudent. Our policy of limiting our aggregate borrowings to no more than 50% of the value of our properties’ value will have the effect of causing the aggregate debt to equal our net asset value. Such debt may be at a level that is higher than real estate investment trusts with similar investment objectives or criteria. High debt levels would cause us to incur higher interest charges, would result in higher debt service payments, and could be accompanied by restrictive covenants. These factors could limit the amount of cash we have available to distribute and could result in a decline in the value of stockholders’ investment.



We do not intend to incur mortgage debt on a particular real property unless we believe the property’s projected cash flow is sufficient to service the mortgage debt. However, if there is a shortfall in cash flow, then the amount available for distributions to stockholders may be affected. In addition, incurring mortgage debt increases the risk of loss because defaults on indebtedness secured by a property may result in foreclosure actions initiated by lenders and our loss of the property securing the loan that is in default. For tax purposes, a foreclosure of any of our properties would be treated as a sale of the property for a purchase price equal to the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage. If the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage exceeds our tax basis in the property, we would recognize taxable income on foreclosure, but would not receive any cash proceeds from the
30


foreclosure. We may give full or partial guarantees to lenders of mortgage debt to the entities that own our properties. When we give a guaranty on behalf of an entity that owns one of our properties, we will be responsible to the lender for satisfaction of the debt if it is not paid by such entity. If any mortgages contain cross-collateralization or cross-default provisions, there is a risk that more than one real property may be affected by a default. If any of our properties are foreclosed upon due to a default, our ability to make distributions to our stockholders will be adversely affected. In addition, because our goal is to be

Our SASB Loan matures on October 9, 2023. We are on the third and final one year maturity date option under the SASB Loan. On October 19, 2022, we received a notice from the loan servicer of the SASB Loan in a position to liquidate our assets within five years after the terminationconnection with an event of this primary offering, our approach to investing in properties utilizing leverage in order

noncompliance with the loan agreement's insurance requirements relating to a single property. The event of default was previously waived for the sole purpose of exercising the final one-year extension option to the SASB Loan term. The default triggers cash management provisions under the SASB Loan agreement, which was implemented in November 2022. Cash management implementation has restricted access to tenant receipts and limited the amount of cash available to meet our operating obligations. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the our ability to refinance the SASB Loan prior to the maturity date. No assurances can be given we will meet our objective of refinancing the SASB Loan prior to the maturity date.


If mortgage debt is unavailable at reasonable rates, we may not be able to refinance our properties, which could reduce the amount of cash distributions we can make.



When we place mortgage debt on properties, we run the risk of being unable to refinance the properties when the loans come due, or of being unable to refinance on favorable terms. If interest rates are higher when the properties are refinanced, we may not be able to finance the properties at reasonable rates and our income could be reduced. If this occurs, it would reduce cash available for distribution to our stockholders, and it may prevent us from borrowing more money.



Lenders may require us to enter into restrictive covenants relating to our operations, which could limit our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.



In connection with obtaining financing, a lender could impose restrictions on us that affect our ability to incur additional debt and our distribution and operating policies. In general, we expect our loan agreements to restrict our ability to encumber or otherwise transfer our interest in the respective property without the prior consent of the lender. Loan documents we enter may contain other customary negative covenants that may limit our ability to further mortgage the property, discontinue insurance coverage replace Hartman Advisors as our advisor or impose other limitations. Any such restriction or limitation may have an adverse effect on our operations and our ability to make distributions.



Interest-only indebtedness may increase our risk of default and ultimately may reduce our funds available for distribution to our stockholders.



We may finance our property acquisitions using interest-only mortgage indebtedness. During the interest-only period, the amount of each scheduled payment will be less than that of a traditional amortizing mortgage loan. The principal balance of the mortgage loan will not be reduced (except in the case of prepayments) because there are no scheduled monthly payments of principal during this period. After the interest-only period, we will be required either to make scheduled payments of amortized principal and interest or to make a lump-sum or “balloon” payment at maturity. These required principal or balloon payments will increase the amount of our scheduled payments and may increase our risk of default under the related mortgage loan. If the mortgage loan has an adjustable interest rate, the amount of our scheduled payments also may increase at a time of rising interest rates. Increased payments and substantial principal or balloon maturity payments will reduce the funds available for distribution to our stockholders because cash otherwise available for distribution will be required to pay principal and interest associated with these mortgage loans.


31



Increases in interest rates could increase the amount of our debt payments and adversely affect our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.



We may incur indebtedness that bears interest at a variable rate. In addition, from time to time we may pay mortgage loans or finance and refinance our properties in a rising interest rate environment. Accordingly, increases in interest rates could increase our interest costs, which could have an adverse effect on our operating cash flow and our ability to make distributions. In addition, if rising interest rates cause us to need additional capital to repay indebtedness in accordance with its terms or otherwise, we may need to liquidate one or more of our investments at times that may not permit realization of the maximum return on such investments.



If we enter into financing arrangements involving balloon payment obligations, it may adversely affect our ability to make distributions.



Some of our financing arrangements may require us to make a lump-sum or “balloon” payment at maturity. Our ability to make a balloon payment at maturity is uncertain and may depend upon our ability to obtain additional financing or our ability to sell the property. At the time the balloon payment is due, we may or may not be able to refinance the balloon payment on terms as favorable as the original loan or sell the property at a price sufficient to make the balloon payment. The effect of a refinancing or sale could affect the rate of return to stockholders and the projected time of disposition of our assets. In addition, payments of principal and interest made to service our debts may leave us with insufficient cash to pay





the distributions that we are required to pay to maintain our qualification as a REIT. Any of these results would have a significant, negative impact on stockholders’ investment.



Changes in how LIBOR is determined, or the potential replacement of LIBOR with an alternative reference rate, may adversely affect our interest expense.
The London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") has been the subject of regulatory guidance and proposals for reform, and in March 2021, the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after June 30, 2023. Our SASB Loan has a LIBOR-based variable interest rate. Our SASB Loan agreement provides for an alternate rate index which is a floating rate that is commonly accepted by participants in CMBS transactions as an alternative to LIBOR and is publicly recognized by ISDA as an alternative to LIBOR, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). There can be no assurances as to what alternative interest rates may be and whether such interest rates, such as SOFR, will be more or less favorable than LIBOR and any other unforeseen impacts of the discontinuation of LIBOR.

We are subject to risks related to bank failures.

The current economic and regulatory environment has raised the risk of instability in the banking sector and bank failures. We may be affected by bank failures to the extent that our depository accounts with a distressed bank exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limits and cannot be recovered or we have obtained a line of credit or other financing from a distressed bank that can no longer be drawn upon. These risks can apply at the company or investment level. We review all direct banking relationships as part of its ongoing diligence of our key service providers.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Risks



Failure to qualify as a REIT would reduceadversely affect our net earnings availableoperations and our ability to make distributions.

Our qualification as a REIT depends on our ongoing satisfaction of numerous requirements established under highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code for investmentwhich there are only limited judicial or distribution.


administrative interpretations and involve the determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control. The complexity of these provisions and of the applicable income tax regulations that have been promulgated under the Internal Revenue Code is greater in the case of a REIT that holds its assets through a partnership, as we do. Moreover, no assurance can be given that legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not change the tax laws with respect to qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of that qualification.


If we fail to qualify as a REIT forin any taxable year for which we have elected to be taxed as a REIT and we do not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, we would be required to pay U.S. federal income tax on our taxable income, and distributions to our stockholders would not be deductible by us in determining our taxable income. In such a case, we might need to borrow money or sell assets in order to pay our taxes. Our payment of income tax would decrease the amount of our income available for distribution to our stockholders. Furthermore, we would not be required to distribute substantially all of our net taxable income to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year for which we have elected to be taxed as a REIT, unless we are eligible for certain statutory relief provisions, we could not re-elect to qualify as a REIT until the fifth calendar year following the year in which we failed to qualify. In addition, although we intend to operate in a manner intended to qualify as a REIT, it is possible that future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause our board of directors to recommend that we revoke our REIT election.

We believe that our operating partnership will be treated for federal income tax purposes as a partnership and not as an association or as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation. If the Internal Revenue Service were successfully to determine that our operating partnership should properly be treated as a corporation, our operating partnership would be required to pay federal income tax at corporate rates on its net income. In addition, we would fail to qualify as a REIT, with the resulting consequences described above.

Legislative, regulatory or administrative changes could adversely affect us.

The tax laws are complex and are subject to change at any time as a result of legislative, judicial or administrative actions, and these changes may adversely affect the taxation of a stockholder. Any such changes could have an adverse effect on an investment in our shares or on the market value or the resale potential of our assets.
On December 22, 2017, the TCJA was signed into law, which makes major changes to the Code, including a number of provisions of the Code that affect the taxation of REITs and their stockholders. The individual and collective impact of these provisions and other provisions of the TCJA on REITs and their stockholders is uncertain, and may not become evident for some period of time. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the implications of the TCJA on their investment in our shares.

To qualify as a REIT we must meet annual distribution requirements, which may result in us distributing amounts that may otherwise be used for our operations.

To qualify as a REIT, we are required each year to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our real estate investment trust taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and excluding net
33


capital gains. We will be subject to federal income tax on ourany undistributed taxable income at corporate rates. In addition,and to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on any amount by which distributions we pay with respect to any calendar year are less than the sum of (1) 85% of our ordinary income, (2) 95% of our capital gain net income and (3) 100% of our undistributed income from prior years. These requirements could cause us to distribute amounts that otherwise would generally be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year of losing our REIT status. Losing our REIT status would reduce our net earnings available for investment or distribution to stockholders because of the additional tax liability. In addition, distributions to stockholders would no longer qualify for the dividends paid deductionspent on investments in real estate assets, and we would no longer be required to make distributions. If this occurs,it is possible that we might be required to borrow funds or liquidate some investments in ordersell assets to fund these distributions. If we fund distributions through borrowings, then we will have to repay debt using money we could have otherwise used to acquire properties. If we sell assets or use offering proceeds to pay distributions, we also will have fewer investments. Fewer investments may impact our ability to generate future cash flows from operations and, therefore, reduce your overall return. Although we intend to make distributions sufficient to meet the applicable tax.


You may have current tax liability on distributions you electannual distribution requirements and to reinvest in our common stock.


       If you participate in our distribution reinvestment plan, you willavoid corporate income and excise taxes, it is possible that we might not always be deemedable to have received, and for income tax purposes will be taxed on, the amount reinvested in shares of our common stock to the extent the amount reinvested was not a tax-free return of capital. do so.


In addition, you will be treated for tax purposes as having received an additional distribution to the extent the shares are purchased at a discount to fair market value. As a result, unless you are a tax-exempt entity, you may have to use funds from other sources to pay your tax liability on the value of the shares of common stock received.


Even if we qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes,certain circumstances, we may be subject to other tax liabilities thatfederal and state income taxes as a REIT which would reduce our cash flow and our abilityavailable to make distributions to you.


pay distributions.


Even if we qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we may be subject to some federal, state and local taxes onmaintain our income or property. For example:


·

In order to qualifystatus as a REIT, we must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (which is determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain for this purpose) to our stockholders. To the extent that we satisfy the distribution requirement but distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income, we will bemay yet become subject to federal corporate income taxes and related state taxes.

example:

We are subject to tax on theany undistributed income.


·

We will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which distributions we pay in any calendar year plus amounts retained for which federal income tax was paid are less than the sum of 85% of our ordinary income, 95% of our capital gain net income, and 100% of our undistributed income from prior years.


·

If we have net income from the sale of foreclosure property that we hold primarily for sale

State laws may change so as to customers in the ordinary course of business or other non-qualifying income from foreclosure property, we must pay a tax on that income at the highest corporate income tax rate.


·

If we sell an asset, other than foreclosure property, that we hold primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business and we do not qualify for a statutory safe harbor, our gain would be subject to the 100% “prohibited transaction” tax unless such sale were made by one of our taxable REIT subsidiaries.


begin taxing REITs.


REIT distribution requirements could adversely affect our ability to execute our business plan.



We generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (which is determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain for this purpose) in order to qualify as a REIT. To the extent that we satisfy this distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income (including net capital gain), we will be subject to federal corporate income tax on our undistributed REIT taxable income. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax if the actual amount that we pay out to our stockholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under federal tax laws. We intend to make distributions to our stockholders to comply with the REIT requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.







From time to time, we may generate taxable income greater than our taxable income for financial reporting purposes, or our taxable income may be greater than our cash flow available for distribution to stockholders. If we do not have other funds available in these situations we could be required to borrow funds, sell investments at disadvantageous prices or find another alternative source of funds to make distributions sufficient to satisfy the REIT distribution requirement and to avoid corporate income tax and the 4% excise tax in a particular year. There is no assurance that outside financing will be available to us. Even if available, the use of outside financing or other alternative sources of funds to pay distributions could increase our costs or dilute our stockholders’ equity interests. Thus, compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our ability to operate solely on the basis of maximizing profits.



To maintain our REIT status, we may be forced to forgo otherwise attractive opportunities, which may delay or hinder our ability to meet our investment objectives and reduce your overall return.



To maintain our REIT status, we must satisfy certain tests on an ongoing basis concerning, among other things, the sources of our income, nature of our assets and the amounts we distribute to our stockholders. We may be
34


required to make distributions to stockholders at times when it would be more advantageous to reinvest cash in our business or when we do not have funds readily available for distribution. Compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our ability to operate solely on the basis of maximizing profits and the value of your investment.



Our gains from sales of our assets are potentially subject to the prohibited transaction tax, which could reduce the return on your investment.



Our ability to dispose of property during the first few years following acquisition is restricted to a substantial extent as a result of our REIT status. We will be subject to a 100% tax on any gain realized on the sale or other disposition of any property (other than foreclosure property) we own, directly or through any subsidiary entity, including our operating partnership, but excluding our taxable REIT subsidiaries, that is deemed to be inventory or property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of trade or business unless we qualify for a statutory safe harbor. Whether property is inventory or otherwise held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business depends on the particular facts and circumstances surrounding each property. We intend to avoid the 100% prohibited transaction tax by (1) conducting activities that may otherwise be considered prohibited transactions through a taxable REIT subsidiary, (2) conducting our operations in such a manner so that no sale or other disposition of an asset we own, directly or through any subsidiary other than a taxable REIT subsidiary, will be treated as a prohibited transaction or (3) structuring certain dispositions of our properties to comply with certain safe harbors available under the Internal Revenue Code for properties held at least two years. However, no assurance can be given that any particular property we own, directly or through any subsidiary entity, including our operating partnership, but excluding our taxable REIT subsidiaries, will not be treated as inventory or property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business.



Complying with REIT requirements may force us to liquidate otherwise attractive investments.



To maintain our REIT status, we must ensure that at the end of each calendar quarter, at least 75% of the value of our assets consists of cash, cash items, government securities and qualifying real estate assets, including certain mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities. Our investment in securities (other than government securities and qualified real estate assets) generally cannot include more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer or more than 10% of the total value of the outstanding securities of any one issuer. In addition, in general, no more than 5% of the value of our assets (other than government securities and qualified real estate assets) can consist of the securities of any one issuer, and no more than 25% of the value of our total assets can be represented by securities of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries.



If we fail to comply with these requirements at the end of any calendar quarter, we must correct the failure within 30 days after the end of the calendar quarter or qualify for certain statutory relief provisions to avoid losing our REIT qualification and suffering adverse tax consequences. As a result, we may be required to liquidate from our portfolio otherwise attractive investments. These actions could have the effect of reducing our income and amounts available for distribution to our stockholders.



Liquidation of assets may jeopardize our REIT status.







To maintain our REIT status, we must comply with requirements regarding our assets and our sources of income. If we are compelled to liquidate our investments to repay obligations to our lenders, we may be unable to comply with these requirements, ultimately jeopardizing our qualification as a REIT, or we may be subject to a 100% tax on any resultant gain if we sell assets that are treated as dealer property or inventory.



Legislative or regulatory action could adversely affect investors.



35


In recent years, numerous legislative, judicial and administrative changes have been made to the federal income tax laws applicable to investments in REITs and similar entities. Additional changes to tax laws are likely to continue to occur in the future and we cannot assure you that any such changes will not adversely affect the taxation of a stockholder. Any such changes could have an adverse effect on an investment in shares of our common stock. We urge you to consult with your own tax advisor with respect to the status of legislative, regulatory or administrative developments and proposals and their potential effect on an investment in shares of our common stock.



Non-U.S. investors may be subject to FIRPTAU.S. federal income tax on the sale of shares of our common stock if we are unable to qualify as a “domestically controlled qualified investment entity”controlled” REIT.



A non-U.S. person disposing of a U.S. real property interest, including shares of a U.S. corporation whose assets consist principally of U.S. real property interests, is generally subject to aU.S. federal income tax known as FIRPTA, on the gain recognized on the disposition of such interest. However, qualified foreign pension plans and certain foreign publicly traded entities are exemptdisposition. A non-U.S. stockholder generally would not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, however, on gain from FIRPTA withholding. Further, FIRPTA does not apply to the disposition of stock in a REIT if the REIT is a “domestically controlled qualified investment entity.REIT.” A domestically controlled REIT is a domestically controlled qualified investment entity if,REIT in which, at all times during a specified testing period, (the continuous five year period ending on the date of disposition or, if shorter, the entire period of the REIT’s existence), less than 50% in value of its shares is held directly or indirectly by non-U.S. holders. We cannot assure you that we will qualify as a domestically controlled qualified investment entity.REIT. If we were to fail to so qualify, gain realized by a non-U.S. investor on a sale of our common stock would be subject to FIRPTAU.S. federal income tax unless our common stock was traded on an established securities market, which is not currently the case, and the non-U.S. investor did not at any time during a specified testing period directly or indirectly own more than 10% of the value of our outstanding common stock.



Retirement Plan Risks


If stockholders fail to meet the fiduciary and other standards under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code as a result of an investment in our stock, affected stockholders could be subject to criminal and civil penalties.



There are special considerations that apply to employee benefit plans subject to ERISA, (such asfor pension or profit-sharing or 401(k) plans) and other retirementplans, health or welfare plans or individual retirement accounts subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code (such as an IRA or Keogh plan) whose assets are being invested in our common stock due to requirements under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code. Furthermore, a person acting on behalf of a plan not subject to ERISA may be subject to similar penalties under applicable federal, state, local, or non-U.S. law by reason of purchasing our stock.

If a stockholder investsyou are investing the assets of such a pension, profit sharing or 401(k) plan, (includinghealth or welfare plan, or an IRA, or other plan or arrangement subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code in us, you should consider:

whether the investment is consistent with stockholders’ fiduciary obligations under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code;
whether the investment is made in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the plan or IRA, including plan or account’s investment policy;
whether the investment satisfies the prudence and diversification requirements of Section 404(a)(1)(B) and 404(a)(1)(C) of ERISA and other applicable provisions of ERISA and/or the Internal Revenue Code;
whether the investment will not impair the liquidity of the plan or IRA;
whether the investment will not produce unrelated business taxable income, referred to as UBTI, for the plan or IRA;
whether the stockholder will be able to value the assets of the plan annually in accordance with ERISA requirements and applicable provisions of the plan or IRA; and
whether the investment will not constitute a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code.

You should consider whether your investment in us will cause some or all of our assets to be considered assets of an insurance company general accountemployee benefit plan, IRA, or entity whoseother arrangement. We do not believe that under ERISA and U.S. Department of Labor regulations currently in effect that our assets would be treated as “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA, although there can be no assurances. However, if our assets were considered to be plan assets, transactions involving our assets would be subject to ERISA and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code and some of the transactions we have entered into with our advisor and its affiliates could be considered “prohibited transactions,” under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code. If such transactions were considered “prohibited transactions,” our advisor and its affiliates could be subject to liabilities and excise taxes or penalties. In addition, our officers and directors, our advisor and its affiliates could be deemed to be fiduciaries under ERISA, subject to other conditions, restrictions and prohibitions under Part 4 of Title I of ERISA and those serving as fiduciaries of plans investing in us may be considered to have improperly delegated fiduciary duties to us. Additionally, other transactions with “parties-in-interest” or “disqualified persons” with respect to an investing plan might be prohibited under ERISA, the Internal Revenue Code or other governing authority in the case of a government plan.

Therefore, we would be operating under a burdensome regulatory regime that could limit or restrict investments we can make or our management of our real estate assets. Even if our assets are not considered to be plan assets, undera prohibited transaction could occur if we or any of our affiliates is a fiduciary (within the meaning of ERISA) with respect to an employee benefit plan purchasing shares and, therefore, in the event any such persons are fiduciaries (within the meaning of ERISA) of your plan or account in our common stock, the stockholderIRA, you should determine that:

the investment is consistent with stockholders’ fiduciary obligations under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code;

the investment is made in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the plan or IRA, including plan or account’s investment policy;

the investment satisfies the prudence and diversification requirements of Section 404(a)(1)(B) and 404(a)(1)(C) of ERISA and other applicable provisions of ERISA and/or the Internal Revenue Code;

the investment will not impair the liquidity of the plan or IRA;

the investment will not produce unrelated business taxable income, referred to as UBTI, for the plan or IRA;



not purchase shares unless an administrative or statutory exemption applies to your purchase.






the stockholder will be able to value the assets of the plan annually in accordance with ERISA requirements and applicable provisions of the plan or IRA; and

the investment will not constitute a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Failure to satisfy the fiduciary standards of conduct and other applicable requirements of ERISA, and the Internal Revenue Code, or other applicable statutory or common law may result in the imposition of civil and(and criminal, if the violation was willful) penalties, and couldcan subject the fiduciary to equitable remedies.remedies and/or damages. In addition, if an investment in our common stock constitutes a prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code, the fiduciary that authorized or directed the investment may be subject to the imposition of excise taxes with respect to the amount invested.

Furthermore, to the extent that the assets of a plan or arrangement not subject to the fiduciary provisions of ERISA (for example, governmental plans, non-electing church plans, and foreign plans) will be used to purchase our stock, such plans should consider the impact of applicable federal, state, local, or non-U.S. law on the decision to make such purchase.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings


     We are not presently subject


During February 2021, the state of Texas experienced a severe winter storm, unofficially referred to any material litigation nor, to our knowledge, is any litigation threatened against us or anyas Winter Storm Uri, which resulted in power outages and electrical grid failures across the state. Wholesale prices for electricity increased significantly during this period. As a result, we experienced a substantial increase in electricity billings for a number of our properties other than routine actions arisingduring the month of and after the storm.

On May 26, 2021, Summer Energy LLC (“Summer”) filed a lawsuit against Hartman Income REIT Management, Inc. (the “Property Manager”), our wholly owned subsidiary that manages our properties, in state court in Harris County, Texas. In this lawsuit, Summer seeks to collect approximately $8.4 million from the Property Manager that Summer claims that the Property Manager owes Summer under one or more electricity sales agreements (“Agreements”) related to Winter Storm Uri. Of the approximately $8.4 million claimed in the ordinary courselawsuit, approximately $7.6 million relates to wholly owned properties. Under the Agreements, Summer provided electricity to buildings managed by the Property Manager at indexed prices.

On March 24, 2022, the court entered a judgment in favor of business, someSummer against the Property Manager in the amount of which are expected$7,871,000 plus customary pre- and post-judgment interest and attorney's fees. The Property Manager continues to be covered bydispute the amount of liability insuranceto Summer and allhas appealed the judgment. The outcome of which collectively are not expectedthe appeal is subject to have a material adverse effectsignificant uncertainty and we cannot provide any assurance that the Property Manager will ultimately prevail. Even if the Property Manager is ultimately successful in its appeal, it may take considerable time to resolve the matter. The Company had recognized the share of the judgment amount applicable to wholly owned properties of the Company, approximately $6,731,000, within the Company's consolidated statement of operations for fiscal year 2021. The Company has also recognized $370,000 of pre-judgment interest and attorney fees in 2021 and $304,000 of post-judgment interest in 2022. Many of the Company’s leases contain provisions that require tenants to pay their allocable share of operating expenses, including utilities. The Company began its assessment of tenants' applicable share during 2022. For those properties with completed assessments, we billed approximately $1,330,000 of tenants' share during the fourth quarter of 2022. Approximately 50% has been collected to date.

On April 25, 2022, the Property Manager filed its supersedeas surety bond totaling $2,197,000 in order to suspend enforcement the judgment for the duration of the Property Manager's appeal. The share of the supersedeas surety bond applicable to wholly owned properties of the Company totaled $2,001,000 and is recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets on our business or financial condition or resultsthe Company's consolidated balance sheets.

The Property Manager continues to dispute the amount of operations.

The outcome of the appeal is subject to significant uncertainty and we cannot provide any assurance that the Property Manager will ultimately prevail. Even if the Property Manager is ultimately successful in its appeal, it may take considerable time to resolve the matter.

PART II

Item 5.     Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities


Stockholder Information


As of March 28, 2016,December 31, 2022, we had 16,530,63634,894,496 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, held by a total of approximately 3,3904,451 stockholders.


The number of stockholders is based on the records of Phoenix American Financial Services, Inc. which serves as our transfer agent.


Market Information


Our shares of common stock are not currently listed on a national securities exchange or any over-the-counter market. We do not expect our shares to become listed in the near future, and they may not become listed at all. Consequently, there is the risk that our stockholders may not be able to sell their shares at a time or price acceptable to them. Effective March 31, 2016, we are terminatingterminated our follow-on public offering. Our board of directors continues to evaluate potential liquidity events to maximize the total potential return to our stockholders, including, but not limited to, mergingstockholders. For further discussion regarding liquidity, see Investment Objectives and Strategy on page 6.

Determination of Estimated Net Asset Value per Share

On April 13, 2023, our company with its affiliates followed by a listingExecutive Committee, which is comprised of our shares of common stock on a national securities exchange. However, our board ofindependent directors has not made a decision to pursue any specific liquidity event, and there can be no assurance that we will complete a liquidity event on the terms described above or at all.


To assist the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., or FINRA, members and their associated persons that participate in our public offering of common stock, we disclose in each annual report distributed to stockholders adetermined an estimated net asset value (“NAV”) per share estimated value of our common stock the method by which it was developed, and the date of the data used to develop the estimated value. In addition, our advisor will prepare annual statements of estimated share values to assist fiduciaries of retirement plans subject to the annual reporting requirements of ERISA in the preparation of their reports relating to an investment in our shares.  For these purposes, our advisor estimated the value of our common stock at $10.00$6.25 per share as of December 31, 2015. The basis for this2022.


In determining the estimated NAV per share, the Executive Committee relied upon information contained in a report, or the valuation is the fact that the current public offering price for our shares of common stock in our public offering is $10.00 per share. Beginning in April 2016,report, provided by our advisor, or another firm we choose for that purpose will determine anthe recommendation of the audit committee of our board and our Executive Committee's experience with, and knowledge of, our real property and other assets as of December 31, 2022. The objective of our board in determining the estimated valueNAV per share of our common stock was to arrive at a value, based on recent, available data, that our board believed was reasonable based on methods that it deemed appropriate after consultation with our advisor and the audit committee. In preparing the valuation report, our advisor relied in part on valuations of commercial real estate properties provided by LaPorte CPAs and Business Advisors, which we refer to herein as the Valuation Expert. To calculate the estimated NAV per share in the Valuation Report, our advisor used a methodology pursuant to the provisions of Practice Guideline 2013-01, Valuations of Publicly Registered Non-Listed REITs, issued by the Institute for Portfolio Alternatives in April 2013. The Valuation Expert did not determine the NAV of the Company’s common shares.

As with any valuation method, the methods used to determine the estimated net asset value per share were based upon a number of assumptions, estimates and judgments that may not be accurate or complete. Our assets have been valued based upon appraisal standards and the values of our assets using these methods are not required to be a reflection of market value under those standards and will disclosenot necessarily result in a current report we publicly file withreflection of fair value under GAAP. Further, different parties using different property-specific and general real estate and capital market assumptions, estimates, judgments and standards could derive a different estimated net asset value per share, which could be significantly different from the SEC underestimated net asset value per share determined by our board of directors. The estimated net asset value per share is not a representation or indication that, among other things: a stockholder would be able to realize the Exchange Act and in each annual report we publicly file with the SEC thereafter. The estimated value per share if he or she attempts to sell shares; a stockholder would ultimately realize distributions per share equal to the estimated value per share upon liquidation of assets and settlement of our liabilities or upon a sale of our company; shares of our common stock would trade at the estimated net asset value per share on a national securities exchange; a third party would offer the estimated net asset value per share in an arms-length transaction to purchase all or substantially all of our shares of common stock; or the methodologies used to estimate the net asset value per share would be acceptable to FINRA or ERISA with respect to their respective requirements. Further, the estimated net asset value per share was calculated as of a moment in time and the value of our shares will fluctuate over time as a result of, among other things, future acquisitions or dispositions of assets, developments related to individual assets and changes in the real estate and capital markets.
43



As a result, the estimated NAV per share as of December 31, 2022 should not be based upon annual valuationsconsidered as an accurate or approximate value of alla share of our common stock at this time, or the amount that stockholders would receive in the event of our liquidation.

We intend to determine an updated estimated fair value per share every year on or about the last day of our fiscal year or more frequently in the sole discretion of our board of directors. The market for commercial real estate can fluctuate quickly and substantially, and values of our assets and liabilities performed by, or withare expected to change in the material assistance or confirmation of, independent third-party appraisers and qualified independent valuation experts recommended by our advisor and approved by our board of directors and derived from a methodology that conforms to standard industry practice. Our board of directors expects to approve and disclose such estimated value per share in a current report filed with the SEC no later than April 11, 2016.

Distribution Policy



To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to annually distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction orand excluding net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP). to our stockholders. Our board of directors may authorize distributions in excess of those required for us to maintain REIT status depending on our financial condition and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.



We declareddeclare distributions based on daily record datesa quarterly basis to be paid monthly. On July 8, 2022, the board of directors suspended distributions to stockholders. The distribution suspension will not impact our REIT status for each day. Distributions declared for all record dates of a given month arethe 2022 fiscal year. Our last paid approximately 20 days after month-end. Distributions are currentlydistribution was calculated at a rate of $0.001918





per share per day, which if paid each day over a 365-day period is equivalent to a 7.0% annualized distribution rate based on a purchase price of $10.00was $0.45 annually per share of common stock.


For federal income tax purposes, distributions to commonscommon stockholders are characterized as ordinary dividends, capital gain distributions or nontaxable distributions. To the extent that we make distributions in excess of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, the distribution will be a nontaxable return of capital which reduces the tax basis of each share of common stock held by a U.S. stockholder. The amount of distributions in excess of a U.S. stockholder’s tax basis will be a taxable gain realized upon the sale of the stockholders’ shares.

GAAP basis accounting for real estate utilizes historical cost accounting and assumes real estate values diminish over time.  In an effort to overcome the difference between real estate values and historical cost accounting for real estate assets, the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, established the measurement tool of funds from operations (“FFO”).  Since its introduction, FFO has become a widely used non-GAAP financial measure among REITs.  Additionally, we use modified funds from operations (“MFFO”) as defined by the Investment Program Association as a supplemental measure to evaluate our operating performance.  MFFO is based on FFO but includescertain adjustments we believe are necessary due to changes in accounting and reporting under GAAP since the establishment of FFO.  Neither FFO nor MFFO should be considered as alternatives to net loss or other measurements under GAAP as indicators of our operating performance, nor should they be considered as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities or other measurements under GAAP as indicators of liquidity.  For additional information on how we calculate FFO and MFFO and a reconciliation of FFO and MFFO to net loss, see Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Funds From Operations and Modified Funds From Operations.”

We are internally managed by our subsidiary, Hartman Income REIT Management, Inc. Our property manager is responsible for operating, leasing and other operating obligations for the next year and that we have adequate resources to fundmaintaining our cash needs. However, our operations are subject to a variety of risks, including, but not limited to, changes in national economic conditions, the restricted availability of financing, changes in demographic trends and interest rates and declining real estate valuations. As a result of these uncertainties, there can be no assurance that we will meet our investment objectives or that the risks described above will not have an adverse effect on our properties or results of operations.

properties.


We elected under Section 856(c)856 of the Internal Revenue Code to be taxed as a REIT beginning with the taxable year ending December 31, 2011. As a REIT we generally are not subject to federal income tax on income that we distribute to our stockholders.  If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year after the year in which we initially elected to be treated as a REIT, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for four years following the year in which our qualification is denied. Such an event could materially and adversely affect our net income. However, we believe that we are organized and will operate in a manner that will enable us to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and we intend to operate so as to remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.







Going Concern Considerations

We have a $259,000,000 SPE Loan (the "SASB Loan") outstanding as of December 31, 2022 which has a maturity date of October 9, 2023, which is within one year of the date that this Annual Report was available to be issued. We are on the third and final one year maturity date option under the SASB Loan. Management has determined our Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to refinance the SASB Loan prior to the maturity date.
46



On October 19, 2022, we received a notice from the loan servicer of the SASB Loan in connection with an event of default due to the noncompliance with the loan agreement's insurance requirements relating to a single property. The event of default was previously waived for the sole purpose of exercising the final one-year extension option to the SASB Loan term. The default triggers cash management provisions under the SASB Loan agreement, which was implemented in November 2022. Cash management implementation has restricted access to tenant receipts and limited the amount of cash available to meet our operating obligations. Refer to Note 8 (Notes Payable) to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report for additional information regarding the timing and priority of disbursements we receive from the cash management accounts and required excess cash flow reserves.

Notwithstanding cash management implementation, we believe that we will have sufficient capital to meet our existing, monthly debt service and other operating obligations for the next year and that we have adequate resources to fund our cash needs. We are working with our third party advisor on refinancing options that are in alignment with a range of strategic alternatives being evaluated. However, the lack of lending activity in the debt markets, particularly in commercial office real estate markets, may have a direct impact on the value of our real estate and ability to refinance the properties in the SASB Loan due October 9, 2023. No assurances can be given we will meet our objective of refinancing the SASB Loan prior to the maturity date.

Our operations are subject to a variety of risks, including, but not limited to, changes in national economic conditions, the restricted availability of financing, changes in demographic trends and interest rates and declining real estate valuations. As a result of these uncertainties, there can be no assurance that we will meet our investment objectives, refinancing objectives, or that the risks described above will not have an adverse effect on our properties or results of operations.

Market Outlook - Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Markets

The ongoing challenges affecting the U.S. commercial real estate industry, especially as it pertains to commercial office buildings, continues to be one of the most significant risks and uncertainties we face. The current economic slowdown, rising interest rate environment, inflation, the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the lack of lending activity in the debt markets have had a negative impact on our Company and the commercial real estate markets. During the second and third quarters of 2022, we failed to secure long-term, fixed rate financing to replace our current SASB Loan. Continued disruptions in the financial markets and economic uncertainty could adversely affect our ability to implement any strategic alternatives or asset reposition, if approved by our stockholders.

Amidst the challenges mentioned above coupled with slower than expected return-to-office, these circumstances have had direct material impacts on the value of our real estate and ability to access the debt markets. We recognized impairment charges on 8 of our properties where the carrying values were not deemed recoverable. Potential changes in tenant behavior, such as the continued use and perceived economic benefits of work-from-home arrangements could materially and negatively impact the future demand for office space in our current real estate portfolio. Valuations of U.S. office properties continue to fluctuate due to weakness in the current real estate capital markets as a result of the factors above and the lack of transaction volume for U.S. office properties, increasing the uncertainty of valuations in the current market environment.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES



Our results of operations and financial condition, as reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes, require us to make estimates and assumptions that are subject to management’s evaluation and interpretation of business conditions, changing capital market conditions and other factors related to the ongoing viability of our customers. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our consolidated financial statements. We believe the following are our more critical accounting policies due to the significance, subjectivity and judgment used in determining our estimates included in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. See also Item 15 - Exhibit F, Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the application of these and other accounting policies.our consolidated financial statements. We evaluate our assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable and appropriate based upon the circumstances.



Revenue Recognition


Our


The Company’s leases are accounted for as operating leases. Certain leases provide for tenant occupancy during periods for which no rent is due and/or for increases or decreases in the minimum lease payments over the terms of the leases. Revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the individual leases. Revenue recognition under a lease begins when the tenant takes possession of or controls the physical use of the leased space. When we acquirethe Company acquires a property, the term of existing leases is considered to commence as of the acquisition date for the purposes of this calculation. AccruedThe Company’s accrued rents are included in accrued rent and accounts receivable, net.  In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605-10-S99, Revenue Recognition, wenet, on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s revenue is primarily derived from leasing activities, which is specifically excluded from ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"). The Company also earns revenue from tenant reimbursements for real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance, and operating. Reimbursements from real estate taxes and certain other expenses are also excluded from of ASC 606.

In addition to our leasing income, the Company also earns fee revenues by providing certain management and advisory services to related parties. These fees are accounted for within the scope of ASC 606 and are recorded as management and advisory income on the consolidated statements of operations. These services primarily include asset management and advisory, operating and leasing of properties, and construction management. Refer to Item 15 - Exhibit F, Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements for additional discussion regarding performance obligations and timing of revenue recognition for our management and advisory income.

Real Estate



Allocation of Purchase Price of Acquired Assets



Upon the acquisition of real properties, it is ourthe Company’s policy to allocate the purchase price of properties to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land and buildings, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and leasehold improvements and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values. We utilizeThe Company utilizes internal valuation methods to determine the fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and buildings).



The fair values of above-market and below-market in-place lease values, including below-market renewal options for which renewal has been determined to be reasonably assured, are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (a) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (b) an estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases and below-market renewal options, which is generally obtained from independent appraisals, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The above-market and below-market lease and renewal option values are capitalized as intangible lease assets or liabilities and amortized as an adjustment ofto rental revenuerevenues over the remaining expected terms of the respective leases.



The fair values of in-place leases include direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, opportunity costs associated with lost rentals which are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease, and tenant relationships. Direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant include commissions, tenant improvements, and other direct costs and are estimated based on independent appraisals and management’s consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. These direct costs are included in intangible lease assets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The value of opportunity costs is calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease. Customer relationships are valued based on expected renewal of a lease or the likelihood of obtaining a particular tenant for other locations. These intangibles are included in intangible lease assets in the consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining term of the respective leases.



The determination of the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired requires the use of significant assumptions with regard to the current market rental rates, rental growth rates, discount rates and other variables. The use of inappropriateinaccurate estimates would result in an incorrect assessment of the purchase price allocations, which could impact the amount of our reported net income (loss).



Real Estate Joint Ventures and Partnerships

To determine the method of accounting for partially owned real estate joint ventures and partnerships, management determines whether an entity is a variable interest entity ("VIE") and, if so, determines which party is the primary beneficiary by analyzing whether we have both the power to direct the entity’s significant economic activities and the obligation to absorb potentially significant losses or receive potentially significant benefits. Significant judgments and assumptions inherent in this analysis include the design of the entity structure, the nature
50


of the entity’s operations, future cash flow projections, the entity’s financing and capital structure, and contractual relationships and terms. We consolidate a VIE when we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary.

Primary risks associated with our involvement with our VIEs include the potential funding of the entities’ debt obligations or making additional contributions to fund the entities’ operations or capital activities.

Partially owned, non-variable interest real estate joint ventures and partnerships over which we have a controlling financial interest are consolidated in our consolidated financial statements. In determining if we have a controlling financial interest, we consider factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions, kick-out rights and substantive participating rights. Partially owned real estate joint ventures and partnerships where we do not have a controlling financial interest, but have the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method.

Management continually analyzes and assesses reconsideration events, including changes in the factors mentioned above, to determine if the consolidation or equity method treatment remains appropriate.

Depreciation and amortization



Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 5 to 39 years for buildings and improvements. Tenant improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the lesser of the life of the improvement or the remaining term of the lease. In-place leases are amortized using the straight-line method over the weighted average years calculated on terms of all of the leases in-place when acquired.



Impairment



We review our real estate assets on an asset by asset basis for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets including accrued rental income, may not be recoverable through operations. We determine whether an impairment in value has occurred by comparing the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges), including the estimated residual value of the property, with the carrying cost of the property. If impairment is indicated, a loss will be recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the property exceeds its fair value.  Management has determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of our real estate assets as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.



Projections of expected future cash flows require management to estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, discount rates, the number of months it takes to release the property and the number of years the property is held for investment. The use of inappropriateinaccurate assumptions in the future cash flow analysis would result in an incorrect assessment of the property’s future





cash flow and fair value and could result in the overstatement of the carrying value of our real estate and related intangible assets and net income.


Fair Value Measurement

Fair value measures are classified into a three-tiered fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1:

Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.

Level 2:

Directly or indirectly observable inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets.

Level 3:

Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require a reporting entity Refer to

develop its own assumptions.

Assets Note 3 (Real Estate) for additional information regarding our impairment analysis and liabilities measured at fair value are basedrelated recognition of loss on one or more of the following valuation techniques:

Market approach:

Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving

identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

Cost approach:

Amount required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

Income approach:

Techniques used to convert future amounts to a single amount based on market

expectations (including present-value, option-pricing, and excess-earnings models).

The Company’s estimates of fair value were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods.  Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value.  The use of different market assumptions or estimation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.  The Company classifies assets and liabilitiesimpairment in the fair value hierarchy based onconsolidated statements of operations for the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Accrued Rent and Accounts Receivable,


       Included in accrued net


Accrued rent and accounts receivable areincludes base rents, tenant reimbursements and receivables attributable to recording rents on a straight-line basis. An allowance for the uncollectible portion of accrued rentsrent and accounts receivable is determined based upon customer credit-worthiness (including expected recovery of our claim with respect to any tenants in bankruptcy), historical bad debt levels, and current economic trends.

Deferred Loan and Leasing Commission Costs


Loan costs are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the terms of the loans, which approximates the interest method.  Leasing commissions are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related lease agreements.


Goodwill


       Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States require us to test goodwill for impairment at least annually or more frequently whenever events or circumstances occur indicating goodwill might be impaired.  We have the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying amount.  If the qualitative assessment determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying amount, or if we elect to bypass the qualitative assessment, we perform a two-step impairment test.  In the first step, management compares the net book value of our carrying amount of goodwill at the balance sheet date. In the event our net book value is less than the carrying amount of goodwill, we proceed to step two and assesses the need to record an impairment charge. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 no goodwill impairment was recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS



Comparison of the year ended December 31, 20152022 versus the year ended December 31, 2014.

2021.

As of December 31, 20152022 and 2021, respectively, we owned 1544 commercial properties comprising approximately 2,395,9106.8 million square feet plus threefour pad sites and two land developments, all located in Texas. As of December 31, 2015,2022 and 2021, we owned seven15 properties located in Richardson, Arlington, and Dallas, Texas, six26 properties located in Houston, Texas and twothree properties located in San Antonio, Texas.  As of December 31, 2014 we owned nine commercial properties comprising approximately 1,377,422 square feet plus three pad sites, all located in Texas.  As of December 31, 2014, we owned four properties located in Richardson, Arlington, and Dallas, Texas, four properties located in Houston, Texas and one property located in San Antonio, Texas.


We define same store (“Same Store”) properties as those properties which we owned for the entirety of the year ended December 31, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014.  Net operating income (property revenues minus property expenses), or “NOI,” is the measure used by management to assess property performance. NOI is not a measure of operating income or cash flows from operating activities as measured by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or “GAAP,” and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. As a result, NOI should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies calculate NOI in the same manner. We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it assists both investors and management in understanding the operating results of our real estate.  For purposes of the following discussion, Same Store properties refer to Richardson Heights, Cooper Street, Bent Tree Green and Parkway properties.  New store (“New Store”) properties refer to Gulf Plaza, Mitchelldale Business Park, Energy Plaza, Timbercreek, Copperfield, Commerce Plaza Hillcrest, 400 North Belt, Ashford Crossing, Corporate Park Place, Skymark Tower and One Technology Center.

Revenues –The primary source of our revenue is rental revenues and tenant reimbursements.management and advisory income. For the years ended December 31, 20152022 and 20142021 we had total rental revenues and tenant reimbursements of $26,204,533$94,017,000 and $12,166,430,$87,194,000, respectively. The $14,038,103overall increase is mainly attributable to increase in total rental revenuesrecoverable operating costs under net leases. With the rapid rise inflation beginning in 2021 and tenant reimbursementsextending throughout 2022, the utility, maintenance, and insurance costs incurred on our properties has increased. Theses costs are recoverable from our tenants to the yearextent provided under net leasing arrangements. Recoverable operating costs increased approximately $4,336,000 Additionally, as discussed in Note 14 (Commitments and Contingencies) of the consolidated financial statements, in the fourth quarter of 2022 we recognized $667,000 of recoverable electricity expenses as a result of Winter Storm Uri. This amount reflects only those properties with completed assessments in 2022 of recoverable amounts. The remaining assessments are expected to be completed during the first quarter of 2023. For the years ended December 31, 20142022 and 2021, we had total management and advisory expenses of $4,053,000 and $4,964,000, respectively. The overall decrease is attributable to lease management services provided to affiliates during the year ended December 31, 2015 was primarily duesecond half of 2022. Revenue from these services decreased approximately $683,000 from 2021 to the fact that we owned 15 properties as of December 31, 2015, as compared to the nine properties we owned as of December 31, 2014. Same Store property revenues increased by $569,545, or approximately 6.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to the year ended December 31, 2014, due to increased occupancy at Richardson Heights and Cooper Street.

The $16,421,847 increasedecrease in property operating expenses from the year ended December 31, 2014 to the year ended December 31, 2015 wasis primarily due to the fact thatextraordinary electricity expense we owned 15 propertiesincurred in 2021 as a direct result of December 31, 2015, as compared to the nine properties we owned as of December 31, 2014.


Fees to affiliatesWe pay acquisition fees and asset management fees to our advisor in connection with the acquisition of properties and management of our company.  Asset management fees were $1,012,256 and $548,902Winter Storm Uri. Electricity expense for the years ended December 31, 20152022 and December 31, 2014,2021, was $8,569,000 and $13,710,000, respectively.  Acquisition costs related to the acquisition of our properties


Real estate taxes and insurance – Real estate taxes and insurance were $1,751,775$15,004,000 and $1,401,275$13,952,000 for the years ended December 31, 20152022 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The increase in acquisition and asset management fees we paid to our advisor from the year ended December 31, 2014 to the year ended December 31, 2015 was primarily due to the fact that we acquired six properties during 2015 as compared to the five properties we acquired during 2014, and the fact that we owned 15 properties as of December 31, 2015, as compared to the 9 properties we owned as of December 31, 2014. We pay property management and leasing commissions to our Property Manager in connection with the management and leasing of our properties.  For the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 we paid our Property Manager $979,294 and $503,667, respectively, for property management fees and $1,049,311 and $1,048,023, respectively, for leasing commissions. The increase in property management fees we paid to our Property Manager from the year ended December 31, 2014 to the year ended December 31, 2015 was primarily due to the increase in revenues attributable to the three properties acquired at the end 2014 and the six properties acquired during 2015.


Real estate taxes and insurance –Real estate taxes and insurance were $4,080,086 and $2,015,312 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014,2021, respectively. The increase in real estate taxes and insurance fromis attributable to increased premiums for commercial property insurance, driven by inflationary trends as well as volatile conditions in the year ended December 31, 2014 to the year ended December 31, 2015 was primarily due to the fact that we owned 15 properties as of December 31, 2015, as compared to the nine properties we owned as of December 31, 2014.

General and administrative expenses -General and administrative expenses were $1,418,840 and $758,971 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of audit fees, transfer agent fees, other professional fees, and independent director compensation. The increase in general and administrative expenses is increased professional fees and certain recoverable and non-recoverable property operating expenses. We expect general and administrative expenses to increase only modestly in future periods as we acquire additional real estate and real estate related assets.  We expect general and administrative expenses to decrease substantially as a percentage of total revenue.


Organizational and offering costs -We have incurred certain expenses in connection with our organization and the sale of our shares of common stock.  These costs principally relate to professional and filing fees.  As of December 31, 2015, such costs totaled $2,592,622and have been expensed as incurred since February 5, 2009, the date of our inception.  For the years ended December 31, 20152022 and December 31, 2014, organization2021, we had general and offering costs were $963,331administrative expenses of $13,570,000 and $463,655,$13,163,000, respectively.

Funds From Operations and Modified Funds From Operations



Funds From Operations, or FFO, is a non-GAAP financial measure defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"(“NAREIT”), an industry trade group, which we believe is an appropriate supplemental measure to reflect the operating performance of a real estate investment trust, or REIT in conjunction with net income. FFO is used by the REIT industry as a supplemental performance measure. FFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under GAAP.



We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as revised in February 2004, or the White Paper. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property and asset impairment write-downs, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO.  Our FFO calculation complies with NAREIT’s policy described above.



The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, especially if such assets are not adequately maintained or repaired and renovated as required by relevant circumstances and/or is requested or required by lessees for operational purposes in order to maintain the value disclosed.  We believe that, since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, including inflation, interest rates, the business cycle, unemployment and consumer spending, presentations of operating results for a REIT using historical accounting for depreciation may be less informative. Additionally, we believe it is appropriate to disregard impairment charges, as this is a fair value adjustment that is largely based on market fluctuations and assessments regarding general market conditions which can change over time.  An asset will only be evaluated for impairment if certain impairment indicationsindicators exist and if the carrying, or book value, exceeds the total estimated undiscounted future cash flows (including net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and any other ancillary cash flows at a property or group level under GAAP) from such asset.  Investors should note, however, that determinations of whether impairment charges have been incurred are based partly on anticipated operating performance, because estimated undiscounted future cash flows from a property, including estimated future net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and certain other ancillary cash flows, are taken into account in determining whether an impairment charge has been incurred.  While impairment charges are excluded from the calculation of FFO as described above, investors are cautioned that due to the fact that impairments are based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows and the relatively limited term of our operations, it could be difficult to recover any impairment charges.



Historical accounting for real estate involves the use of GAAP. Any other method of accounting for real estate such as the fair value method cannot be construed to be any more accurate or relevant than the comparable
53


methodologies of real estate valuation found in GAAP. Nevertheless, we believe that the use of FFO, which excludes the impact of real estate related depreciation and amortization and impairments, provides a more complete understanding of the our performance to investors and to management, and when compared year over year, reflects the impact on our operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which may not be immediately apparent from net income.  However, FFO and MFFO, as described below, should not be construed to be more relevant or accurate than the current GAAP methodology in calculating net income or in its applicability in evaluating our operating performance. The method utilized to evaluate the value and performance of real estate under GAAP should be construed as a more relevant measure of operational performance and considered more prominently than the non-GAAP FFO and MFFO measures and the adjustments to GAAP in calculating FFO and MFFO.


Changes in the accounting and reporting promulgations under GAAP (for acquisition fees and expenses from a capitalization/depreciation model to an expensed-as-incurred model) that were put into effect in 2009 and other changes to GAAP accounting for real estate subsequent to the establishment of NAREIT’s definition of FFO have prompted an increase in cash-settled expenses, specifically acquisition fees and expenses for all industries as items that are expensed under GAAP, that are typically accounted for as operating expenses.  Management believes these fees and expenses do not affect our overall long-term operating performance.  Publicly registered, non-listed REITs typically have a significant

amount of acquisition activity and are substantially more dynamic during their initial years of investment and operation.  While other start up entities may also experience significant acquisition activity during their initial years, we believe that non-listed REITs are unique in that they have a limited life with targeted exit strategies within a relatively limited time frame after the acquisition activity ceases. We intend to use the remaining net proceeds raised in our follow-on offering to continue to acquire properties, and intend to begin the process of achieving a liquidity event (i.e., the listing of our common stock on a national exchange, a merger or sale or our company or another similar transaction) within ten years of the completion of our initial public offering.  The Investment Program Association, or “IPA,” an industry trade group, has standardized a measure known as Modified Funds From Operations, or “MFFO,” which the IPA has recommended as a supplemental measure for publicly registered non-listed REITs and which we believe to be another appropriate supplemental measure to reflect the operating performance of a non-listed REIT having the characteristics described above.  MFFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under GAAP, and MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate with a limited life and targeted exit strategy, as currently intended.  We believe that, because MFFO excludes costs that we consider more reflective of investing activities and other non-operating items included in FFO and also excludes acquisition fees and expenses that affect our operations only in periods in which properties are acquired, MFFO can provide, on a going forward basis, an indication of the sustainability (i.e., the capacity to continue to be maintained) of our operating performance after the period in which we are acquiring our properties and once our portfolio is in place.  By providing MFFO, we believe we are presenting useful information that assists investors and analysts to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance after our public offering has been completed and our properties have been acquired.  We also believe that MFFO is a recognized measure of sustainable operating performance by the non-listed REIT industry.  Further, we believe MFFO is useful in comparing the sustainability of our operating performance after our public offering and acquisitions are completed with the sustainability of the operating performance of other real estate companies that are not as involved in acquisition activities. Investors are cautioned that MFFO should only be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance after our public offering has been completed and properties have been acquired, as it excludes acquisition costs that have a negative effect on our operating performance during the periods in which properties are acquired.


We define MFFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the IPA’s Guideline 2010-01, Supplemental Performance Measure for Publicly Registered, Non-Listed REITs: Modified Funds from Operations, or the Practice Guideline, issued by the IPA in November 2010.  The Practice Guideline defines MFFO as FFO further adjusted for the following items, as applicable, included in the determination of GAAP net income: acquisition fees and expenses; amounts relating to deferred rent receivables and amortization of above and below market leases and liabilities (which are adjusted in order to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease payments); accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments; mark-to-market adjustments included in net income; nonrecurring gains or losses included in net income from the extinguishment or sale of debt, hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings where trading of such holdings is not a fundamental attribute of the business plan, unrealized gains or losses resulting from consolidation from, or deconsolidation to, equity accounting, and after adjustments for consolidated and unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, with such adjustments calculated to reflect MFFO on the same basis.  The accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments, nonrecurring unrealized gains and losses on hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings, unrealized gains and losses resulting from consolidations, as well as other listed cash flow adjustments are adjustments made to net income in calculating the cash flows provided by operating activities and, in some cases, reflect gains or losses which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized.


Our MFFO calculation complies with the IPA’s Practice Guideline described above. In calculating MFFO, we exclude acquisition related expenses.  We do not currently exclude amortization of above and below market leases, fair value adjustments of derivative financial instruments, deferred rent receivables and the adjustments of such items related to noncontrolling interests.  Under GAAP, acquisition fees and expenses are characterized as operating expenses in determining operating net income.  These expenses are paid in cash by us, and therefore such funds will not be available to distribute to investors.  All paid and accrued acquisition fees and expenses negatively impact our operating performance during the period in which properties are acquired and will have negative effects on returns to investors, the potential for future distributions, and cash flows generated by us, unless earnings from operations or net sales proceeds from the disposition of other properties are generated to cover the purchase price of the property, these fees and expenses and other costs related to such property.  Accordingly, MFFO may not be an accurate indicator of our operating performance, especially during periods in which properties are being acquired.  MFFO that excludes such costs and expenses would only be comparable to non-listed REITs that have completed their acquisition activities and have similar operating characteristics to us.  Further, under GAAP, certain contemplated non-cash fair value and other non-cash adjustments are





considered operating non-cash adjustments to net income in determining cash flow from operating activities.  In addition, we view fair value adjustments of derivatives and gains and losses from dispositions of assets as non-recurring items or items which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized, and which are not reflective of on-going operations and are therefore typically adjusted for when assessing operating performance.  As disclosed elsewhere in the Prospectus, the purchase of properties, and the corresponding expenses associated with that process, is a key operational feature of our business plan to generate operational income and cash flows in order to make distributions to investors. Acquisition fees and expenses will not be reimbursed by the advisor if there are no further proceeds from the sale of shares in our public offering, and therefore such fees and expenses will need to be paid from either additional debt, operational earnings or cash flows, net proceeds from the sale of properties or from ancillary cash flows.


Our management uses MFFO and the adjustments used to calculate it in order to evaluate our performance against other non-listed REITs which have limited lives with short and defined acquisition periods and targeted exit strategies shortly thereafter.  As noted above, MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate in this manner.  We believe that our use of MFFO and the adjustments used to calculate it allow us to present our performance in a manner that reflects certain characteristics that are unique to non-listed REITs, such as their limited life, limited and defined acquisition period and targeted exit strategy, and hence that the use of such measures is useful to investors.  For example, acquisitions costs are funded from the remaining net proceeds of our public offerings and other financing sources and not from operations.  By excluding expensed acquisition costs, the use of MFFO provides information consistent with management’s analysis of the operating performance of the properties.  Additionally, fair value adjustments, which are based on the impact of current market fluctuations and underlying assessments of general market conditions, but can also result from operational factors such as rental and occupancy rates, may not be directly related or attributable to our current operating performance.  By excluding such changes that may reflect anticipated and unrealized gains or losses, we believe MFFO provides useful supplemental information.


Presentation of this information is intended to provide useful information to investors as they compare the operating performance of different REITs, although it should be noted that not all REITs calculate FFO and MFFO the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. FFO and MFFO areis not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or income (loss) from continuing operations as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operations as an indication of its liquidity, or indicative of funds available to fund its cash needs including its ability to make distributions to its stockholders. FFO and MFFO should be reviewed in conjunction with other GAAP measurements as an indication of our performance. MFFOFFO is not a useful in assisting management and investors in assessing the sustainability of operating performance in future operating periods, and in particular, after the offering and acquisition stages are complete and net asset value is disclosed.  FFO and MFFO are not useful measuresmeasure in evaluating net asset value because impairments are taken into account in determining net asset value but not in determining FFO or MFFO.


FFO.


Neither the SEC, NAREIT nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO or MFFO.FFO. In the future, the SEC, NAREIT, or another regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the non-listed REIT industry and as a result we may have to adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO or MFFO.

The table below summarizes our calculation of FFO and MFFO for the years ended December 31, 2015, 20142022 and 2013,2021, respectively, and a reconciliation of such non-GAAP financial performance measures to our net loss.

Liquidity and Capital Resources



As described above under "Overview - Going Concern Considerations," we are under our final one year maturity date option of our SASB Loan due October 9, 2023 and have an ongoing event of default under the SASB Loan relating to the loan agreement's insurance requirements relating to a single property. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company's ability to refinance the SASB Loan prior to the maturity date.

The event of default triggered cash management provisions under the loan agreement which have been in effect since November 2022. The action has restricted access to tenant receipts from the 39 properties in the loan and disrupted both the timing and amount of free cash flow on hand. Tenant receipts on these 39 properties are deposited into a cash management account controlled by the loan servicer. On the 9th day of each month, distributions from the cash management account are made in the following priority: (i) property tax escrow, (ii) scheduled debt service (iii) budgeted operating expenses for the month of the payment date occurs, (iv) capital expenditure reserve, and (v) tenant improvement and lease commission reserve. All remaining amounts are disbursed to an excess cash flow reserve account, also maintained by the loan servicer. As a result, our unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on hand is limited. As of December 31, 2015, we had issued 14,038,203 shares2022, the SASB cash management account and excess cash flow reserve held $3,817,000 and $223,000, respectively, and are recorded in restricted cash on the December 31, 2022 consolidated balance sheet. The remaining five of our common stock in our initial44 revenue generating properties are outside the SASB Loan and follow-on public offerings, including 897,459 shares of our common stock pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, resulting in gross offering proceeds of $136,853,634. Effective March 31, 2016, we are terminating the offer and sale of our common sharesnot subject to the public in our follow-on offering. The sale of shares of our common stock to our stockholders pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan will continue until as late as July 16, 2016.


provisions above.


Our principal demands for funds are and will continue to be for real estate and real estate-related acquisitions, for the payment of operating expenses, for the payment of interest on our outstanding indebtedness, and for the payment of distributions. Effective July 8, 2022, we have suspended the payment of distributions. Generally, we expect to meet cash needs for items other than acquisitions from our cash flow from operations; provided, that some or all of our distributions have been and may continue to be paid from sources other than cash from operations (as discussed below).

We expect to meet cash needs for acquisitions fromhave in the remaining net proceeds of our follow-on offering and from financings.

There may be a delay between the sale of our shares of common stock and the purchase of properties or other investments, which could result in a delay in our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.  Some or all of our distributions have beenpast and may continue to be paidin the future pay distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations, including proceeds of our public offerings, cash advances to us by our advisor, cash resulting from a waiver of asset management feesaffiliates and borrowings secured by our assets in anticipation of future operating cash flow. We may have little, if any, cash flow from operations available for distribution until we make substantial investments and those investments stabilize.  In addition, toTo the extent our investments are in development or redevelopment projects or in properties that have significant capital requirements, our ability to make future distributions may be negatively impacted, especially during our early periods of operation.

We use, and intend to use in the future, secured and unsecured debt to acquire properties and make other investments. As of December 31, 2015,2022, our outstanding secured debt is $76,417,905.$298,804,000. There is no limitation on the amount we may invest in any single property or other asset or on the amount we can borrow for the purchase of any individual property or other investment. Under our charter, we are prohibited from borrowing in excess of 300% of our “net assets” (as defined by our charter) as of the date of any borrowing; however, we may exceed that limit if approved by a majority of our independent directors and if such excess is disclosed to the stockholders in the next quarterly report along with the explanation for such excess borrowings. Our board of directors has adopted a policy to limit our aggregate borrowings to approximately 50% of the aggregate value of our assets unless substantial justification exists that borrowing a greater amount is in our best interests. Such limitation, however, does not apply to individual real estate assets and only will apply once we have ceased raising capital in our public offering and invested substantially all of our capital. As a result, we expect to borrow more than 50% of the contract purchase price of each real estate asset we acquire to the extent our board of directors determines that borrowing these amounts is prudent.

Our advisor may, but is not required to, establish capital reserves from gross offering proceeds, out of cash flow generated by operating properties and other investments or out of non-liquidating net sale proceeds from the sale of our properties and other investments.  Capital reserves are typically utilized for non-operating expenses such as tenant improvements, leasing commissions and major capital expenditures. Alternatively, a lender may require its own formula for escrow of capital reserves.

Potential future sources of capital include proceeds from additional private or public offerings of our securities, secured or unsecured financings from banks or other lenders, proceeds from the sale of properties and undistributed

funds from operations. If necessary, we may use financings or other sources of capital in the event of unforeseen significant capital expenditures.

ContractualCommitments and Contingencies

We use, and intend to use in the future, secured and unsecured debt, as a means of providing additional funds for the acquisitionwholly owned properties of our propertiescompany totaling $2,001,000, and our real estate-related assets. We believe that the careful use of borrowings will help us achieve our diversification goals and potentially enhance the returns on our investments. Under our charter, we are prohibited from borrowing in excess of 300% of our net assets, which generally approximates to 75% of the aggregate cost of our assets. We may borrow in excess of this amount if such excess is approved by a majority of the independent directors and disclosed to stockholders in our next quarterly report, along with a justification for such excess. In such event, we will monitor our debt levels and take action to reduce any such excess as practicable. Our aggregate borrowings are reviewed by our board of directors at least quarterly. As of December 31, 2015, our borrowings were not in excess of 300% of the value of our net assets.


In addition to using our capital resources for investing purposes and meeting our debt obligations, we expect to use our capital resources to make certain payments to our advisor. We expect to make payments to our advisor or its affiliates in connection with the selection and origination or purchase of real estate and real estate-related investments, the management of our assets, the management of the development or improvement of our assets and costs incurred by our advisor in providing services to us.


As of December 31, 2015, we had notes payable totaling an aggregate principal amount of $76,417,905. For more information on our outstanding indebtedness, see Note 7 (Notes Payable) to the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.

Review of our Investment Policies

Our board of directors, including our independent directors, has reviewed our investment policies as described in this Annual Report and determined that such policies are in the best interests of our stockholders based on the following factors: (1) such policies increase the likelihood that we will be able to acquire a diversified portfolio of income producing properties, thereby reducing risk in our portfolio; (2) our executive officers and directors and the affiliates of our advisor have expertise with the type of real estate investments we seek; (3) there are sufficient property acquisition opportunities with the attributes that we seek; and (4) borrowings should enable us to purchase assets and earn income more quickly, thereby increasing the likelihood of generating income for our stockholders and preserving stockholder capital.


Item 7A.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

We will be exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of short and long-term debt used to acquire properties and make loans and other permitted investments. Our interest rate risk management objectives will be to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we expect to borrow primarily at fixed rates or variable rates with the lowest margins available and, in some cases, with the ability to convert variable rates to fixed rates. With regard to variable rate financing, we will assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging and interest rate cap opportunities.

Item 9A.     Controls and Procedures


Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 15a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the end ofinformation required to be disclosed in the period covered by this Annual Report,reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Because of inherent limitations, disclosure controls or procedures, no matter how well designed it operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 13d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based upon, and as of the date of, theDecember 31, 2022. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, theas of
58


December 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as ofat a reasonable assurance level due to the end of the period covered by this Annualmaterial weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below.

Management's Report to ensure that information required to be disclosedon Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in the reports we fileRule 13a-15(f) and submit15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarizedas a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and reported asprincipal financial officers and when required. Disclosure controlseffected by the board of directors, management another personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting in the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally excepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) and include those policies and procedures include, without limitation,that:

pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and disposition of our assets;
provide reasonable assurance the transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally excepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of management and our directors; and
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention of timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of any of our assets in circumstances that could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls andmay become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to ourmay deteriorate.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) or 15(d)-15(f).  Under the supervision andof 1934, as amended.


In connection with the participationpreparation of this Annual Report, our management, we conducted an evaluation ofincluding our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based onas of December 31, 2022. In making that assessment, our management used the framework inInternal Control—Integrated Framework issuedand criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013).

Based on ourits evaluation, under the framework inInternal Control—Integrated Framework, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2015.


2022, due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting discussed below. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.


As of December 31, 2022, the following material weaknesses existed:

The insufficient design and operation of controls over the review, approval, and disclosure of related party transactions.

The insufficient design of controls related to the timing for revenue recognition of estimated recoveries of operating expense items under leasing arrangements.
59



The first material weakness is the result of a financing agreement executed in the first quarter of 2021. Under the agreement, one of our wholly owned properties was added to a credit facility of one of our affiliates. The affiliate transaction required the approval of our independent directors at that time and was not obtained. Further, during the ongoing renewal of the affiliate’s credit facility, a review of organizational and other financing documents required the Company to further evaluate its ownership interest in the property so that our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for each of the periods each of the periods ending December 31, 2022 and 2021, and related interim periods.

The second material weakness is related to the timing the Company's operating expense recovery recognition process. As required under most of our leases, after the close of our fiscal year the Company performs annual operating expense recoveries to reconcile tenants' prorated share of actual operating expenses incurred during the year against estimates billed throughout the year. Historically, the difference between the actual recoveries and estimates has not been material and is recognized in the subsequent fiscal period. However, primarily due to the rapid rise in inflation throughout 2022 and volatile insurance markets, recoverable costs outpaced our estimates by approximately $3,544,000. The adjustment is appropriately reflected in the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Notwithstanding these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2022 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Weaver and Tidwell, L.L.P., an independent registered public accounting firm, audited our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Their report is included in “Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules” under the heading Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm on our internal control over financial reporting due to exemption established by rule of the SEC for smaller reporting companies.

Remediation Efforts

Management has begun implementing remediation plans to address the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting discussed above. The remediation plan for the first material weakness includes enhancing our policies and procedures around identifying related party transactions, approval thresholds, disclosure requirements, and strengthening documentation standards to ensure transactions with related parties are appropriately evaluated, reviewed, approved, and disclosed. The remediation plan for the second material weakness includes implementation of a fiscal year-end evaluation procedure to determine if recognition of an estimated recovery is warranted. We believe these actions will be sufficient to remediate the identified material weaknesses and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting; however, some of these actions will take time to be fully integrated and confirmed to be effective and sustainable. We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and will make any further changes management determines appropriate.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no other changes during the quarter ended December 31, 20152022 in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financing reporting.

the current or future value of our shares; and advising on changes in compensation of members of theour Board of Directors. We currently do not pay any compensation to our executive officers and have no paid employees.



Nominating and Governance Committee



Our board of directors has established a Nominating and Governance Committee, or the “Nominating Committee.” Our Nominating Committee is comprised of our two independent directors, Gerald Haddock, chairman, and Jack Tompkins and Richard Ruskey.Tompkins. Our Board of Directors has adopted our Nominating Committee Charter, a copy of which is posted on our website,www.hartmaninvestment.comhttp://www.hartmanreits.com/sec-filings/. The Nominating Committee will recommend nominees to serve on our Board of Directors. The Nominating Committee will consider nominees recommended by stockholders if submitted to the committee in accordance with the procedures specified in our bylaws. Generally, this requires that the stockholder send certain information about the nominee to our corporate secretary between 120 and 150 days prior to the first anniversary of the mailing of notice for the annual meeting held in the prior year. Because our directors take a critical role in guiding our strategic direction and oversee our management, board candidates must demonstrate broad-based business and professional skills and experiences, concern for the long-term interests of our stockholders, and personal integrity and judgment. In addition, directors must have time available to devote to board activities and to enhance their knowledge of our industry. The Nominating Committee is responsible for assessing the appropriate mix of skills and characteristics required of board members in the context of the perceived needs of the board at a given point in time and shall periodically review and recommend for approval by the board any updates to the criteria as deemed necessary. Diversity in personal background, race, gender, age and nationality for the board as a whole may be taken into account favorably in considering individual candidates. The nominating committeeNominating Committee will evaluate the qualifications of each director candidate against these criteria in making its recommendation to the Boardour board concerning nominations for election or reelection as a director. The process for evaluating candidates recommended by our stockholders pursuant to our bylaws will be no different than the process for evaluating other candidates considered by the Nominating Committee.






Code of Ethics



We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics which contains general guidelines for conducting our business and is designed to help directors, employees and consultants resolve ethical issues in an increasingly complex business environment. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applies to all of our officers, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer and persons performing similar functions and all members of our board of directors. A copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is posted on our website,www.hartmaninvestment.com.


will be made available, free of charge, to anyone who requests a copy in writing.


Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance



Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires each director, officer and individual beneficially owning more than 10% of our common stock to file with the SEC, within specified time frames, initial statements of beneficial ownership (Form 3) of our common stock and statements of changes in beneficial ownership (Forms 4 and 5) of our common stock. These specified time frames require the reporting of changes in ownership within two business days of the transaction giving rise to the reporting obligation. Reporting persons are required to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed with the SEC. Based solely on a review of the copies of such forms furnished to us during and with respect to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015,2022, or written representations that no additional forms were required, we believe that all required Section 16(a) filings were timely and correctly made by reporting persons during 2015, except as follows:


due to an administrative oversight, a Form 4 was not timely filed in April 2015 to report the issuance of 3,000 shares of restricted common stock to each of Mr. Tompkins and Mr. Ruskey in connection with their continuing service as non-employee members of our board of directors.

Item 11.    Executive Compensation



Compensation of our Executive Officers



Compensation Discussion and Analysis
65



Throughout this discussion, the following individuals who served as our chief executive officer and chief financial officer during 2022 and the other three most highly compensated executive officers as of the end of 2022, as determined in accordance with applicable SEC rules, are collectively referred to as our named executive officers.
Named Executive OfficerTitle
Mark T. TorokChief Executive Officer
Louis T. Fox, IIIChief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer and Treasurer
Michael A. RacusinGeneral Counsel and Corporate Secretary
Allen R. HartmanChief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman
Richard A. MaloofExecutive Vice President of Leasing

On October 15, 2022, Mr. Torok assumed the role of Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Hartman assumed the role of Executive Chairman. On March 10, 2023, the Executive Committee of the board of directors removed Allen Hartman as Executive Chairman of the board of directors of the Company and terminated the agreement between the Company and Allen Hartman. The Executive Committee investigated issues related to certain violations of fiduciary and other duties to the Company by Mr. Hartman which has not concluded. Mr. Hartman remains a director on the Company’s Board. Richard A. Maloof departed the Company on January 23, 2023.

We provide what we believe is a competitive total compensation package to our named executive officers through a combination of base salary, annual cash incentive bonuses, and profit sharing/phantom equity incentive compensation and broad-based benefits programs. We seek to maintain a total compensation package that provides fair, reasonable and competitive compensation for our executives while also permitting us the flexibility to differentiate actual pay based on the level of individual and company performance. We place significant emphasis on annual and incentive compensation, including cash and phantom equity-based incentives, which are designed to reward our executives based on achievement of company and individual goals and our strategic objective of delivering long-term stable and consistent returns to our stockholders.
Say-on-Pay and Say-on-Frequency Votes
Since the mergers of the Company and its Hartman affiliates effective July 1, 2020, we have not yet held an annual meeting of stockholders at which time the Company will hold an advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers and at such annual meeting and thereafter we plan to hold an advisory vote as required under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or the Dodd-Frank Act. The Dodd-Frank Act requires that such stockholder votes on frequency be held at least once every six years.

Overview of Compensation Philosophy & Objectives
We seek to maintain a total compensation package that provides fair, reasonable and competitive compensation for our executive officers while also permitting us the flexibility to differentiate actual pay based on the level of individual and organizational performance. Our executive compensation programs are designed to:

Attract and retain talented and experienced executives;

Motivate our executives whose knowledge, skills and performance are critical to our success; and

Align the interests or executive officers and stockholders by motivating executive officers to increase stockholder value and reward executive officers based on increased value.

Roles of the Compensation Committee, Compensation Consultant and Management
Compensation Committee
The members of the Compensation Committee are James Still, chairman, and Horst Schulze, each of whom is “independent” under the independence standards of the NYSE. The Compensation Committee, is active and undertaking its responsibility for monitoring the performance of our executives and evaluating and approving our executive compensation plans, policies and programs. In addition, the Compensation Committee oversees the administration our 2021 Hartman Profit Sharing and Retention Plan.

Compensation Consultant

For fiscal 2022 executive compensation, the Compensation Committee did not engage the services of any independent outside compensation consultants.

Management

For fiscal 2022, our Executive Committee and our Chief Executive Officer exercised discretion with respect to the evaluation of the individual performance and appropriate compensation levels for the other executive officers.

Compensation of Executive Officers

Executive compensation programs include three principal elements – base salary, incentive cash bonus, and profit sharing and retention incentives, in the form of performance-based incentive units awarded from time to time in our Hartman Profit Sharing and Retention Plan. In fiscal 2021, we awarded unit grants to our named executive officers to recognize their significant contributions to the Company’s performance and to further incentivize our named executive officers’ continued service to the Company. We believe that an emphasis on annual incentive cash bonus and profit sharing compensation creates greater alignment with the interests of our stockholders, ensures that our business strategy is executed by decision-makers in a manner that focuses on the creation of both long-term value and short-term results, and encourages prudent evaluation of risks. The following table presents the base salary, incentive cash bonus compensation and profit sharing compensation for our Chief Executive Officer and each of our other named executive officers for fiscal 2022.

(4) Richard A. Maloof departed the Company on January 23, 2023.

Base Salary

The base salary payable to each named executive officer provides a fixed component of compensation that reflects the executive’s position and responsibilities. The goal of our base salary program is to provide salaries at a level that allows us to attract and retain highly qualified executives while preserving significant flexibility to recognize and reward individual performance within the overall executive compensation program. Base salaries will be reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee and may be adjusted to better match competitive market levels or to recognize an executive’s professional growth, development and increased responsibility.

In connection with its annual review of base salaries, the Compensation Committee will review the results of benchmarking analysis prepared by the committee or its compensation consultant in order to determine appropriate increases in base salaries for each of our named executive officers in light of (i) the Company’s growth in terms of occupancy and cash flows from operations, (ii) each named executive officer’s individual performance, scope of responsibilities and prospects, and (iii) market data provided the compensation consultant, if any.

Annual Incentive Cash Bonus

Annual incentive cash bonuses are designed to reward our named executive officers for strong financial, operational and individual performance. We expect that eligibility to receive these cash bonuses will incentivize our named executive officers to strive to attain Company and individual performance goals that further our interests and the interests of our stockholders. The Company utilizes a quarterly scorecard incentive compensation arrangement structured on the achievement of formulaic Company objectives as well as specific individual qualitative goals, each of which are set on a quarterly basis.

Long-Term/Profit Sharing Incentive Compensation

While there were no grants in fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee believes that a substantial portion of each named executive officer’s annual compensation should be in the form of long-term equity and or profit sharing incentive compensation. Equity incentive awards, including profit sharing/phantom equity plans, encourage management to create stockholder value over the long-term, because the value of the incentive awards is directly attributable to changes in the price of our common stock over time. In addition, phantom equity awards are an effective tool for management retention because full vesting of the awards generally requires continued employment for multiple years.
In September 2020, the board of directors approved the Hartman Profit Sharing and Retention Plan ("Plan") for employees of the Company including our named executive officers. There are two main parts to the Plan. One is a profit sharing payment component payable monthly and a retention bonus that will be paid at the end of the retention period as defined in the Plan. The Plan allows participants to receive payments on the retention bonus immediately at the same rate and time as distributions are paid on a like amount of the common stock of the company held by our stockholders. These payments continue to the extent that distributions are paid on the Company's common stock until the retention period has expired. Payments are not guaranteed and can fluctuate with any changes in the distributions paid on the actual common stock of the Company. The second part is a final payout of the retention bonus paid, at the Company's option: (1) a cash amount equal to the value of the Company's shares of common stock 60 days after the participant's individual retention period expires; (2) in common stock of the Company; or (3) as the
68


Company and the participant may agree. Unit awards under the Plan are not of actual shares of common stock or any ownership interest in the Company but are a profit sharing payment that mirrors the common stock performance. The units awarded under the Plan do not receivehave voting rights in any manner upon which the common stockholders vote.

Other Elements of Compensation
Employee Benefits and Perquisites. Our full-time employees are eligible to participate in health and welfare benefit plans, such as medical cost sharing, dental, life and short and long-term disability insurance.

401(k) Plan. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, allows eligible employees to defer a portion of their compensation, directly from uswithin prescribed limits, on a pre-tax basis through contributions to a 401(k) plan. We established a 401(k) retirement savings plan for services renderedour employees, including our named executive officers, who satisfy certain eligibility requirements. Our named executive officers are eligible to us and weparticipate in the 401(k) plan on the same terms as other full-time employees.

Lease Commissions: We also pay in-house leasing representatives leasing commissions for signed leases.

Tax Considerations
Deductibility of Executive Compensation. Under Section 162(m) of the Code, a publicly held corporation generally may not deduct compensation of more than $1 million paid to any “covered employee” in any year. We do not intendexpect Section 162(m) to pay anyhave a significant impact on our Compensation Committee’s compensation decisions for our executive officers.
Accounting Standards
The Compensation Committee will regularly consider the accounting implications of significant compensation decisions, especially in connection with decisions that relate to our equity plans and programs. As accounting standards change, we may revise certain programs to appropriately align accounting expenses of our equity awards with our overall executive compensation philosophy and objectives. ASC Topic 718 requires us to recognize an expense for the fair value of equity-based compensation awards. We do not believe that unit awards under the Hartman Profit Sharing and Retention Plan are required to be accounted for under ASC Topic 718.

Risk Considerations in Our Compensation Programs
Our Compensation Committee does not believe the goals, or the underlying philosophy, of our compensation programs encourage excessive or inappropriate risk taking.
We structure the compensation to our executive officers. We do not reimburse our advisor directly or indirectly for the salary or otherofficers to consist of both fixed and variable compensation. The fixed portion (base salary) of compensation paidis designed to anyprovide a base level of income regardless of our executive officers.financial or share price performance. The variable portion of compensation (annual incentive cash bonus and profit sharing plan) is designed to encourage and reward both short- and long-term financial, operational and individual performance, with appropriate caps on the maximum amount of annual cash incentive compensation and shares and/or units that can be earned.

Item 13.    Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence


The following describes all transactions since January 1, 2016 involving us, our directors, our advisor, our sponsor and any affiliate thereof and all such proposed transactions. See also Item 15 - Exhibit F, Note 11 (Related Party Arrangements) to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report. Our independent directors are specifically charged with and have examined the fairness of such transactions to our stockholders, and have determined that all such transactions are fair and reasonable to us.

Ownership Interests



We initially issued 100 shares of the Company’sour common stock to Hartman XX Holdings, Inc., or “Holdings,” for $1,000. Holdings is a Texas corporation wholly owned by Allen R. Hartman. Holdings was formed solely for the purpose of facilitating the organization and offering of the initial offering of our shares.  Effective October 15, 2009 we issued an additional 18,900 shares of common stock to Holdings for $189,000. Holdings contributed a related party liability in the amount of $189,000 to us in exchange for the issuance of an additional 18,900 shares of our common stock. The transaction resulted in a total of 19,000 shares of our common stock issued since our inception for total consideration of $190,000.



We issued our former external advisor, Hartman Advisors LLC, 1,000 shares of our non-voting convertible preferred stock, or “convertible stock,” for $10,000.  Effective October 15, 2009, we received additional consideration of $9,900 with respect to the convertible stock.  Our advisor contributed a related party liability in the amount of $9,900 to us as donated capital related to the convertible stock previously issued to our advisor.  Accordingly, the overall issue price for the 1,000 convertible preferred stock is $10,000 or $10 per share.  Upon the terms described below, these shares may be converted into shares of our common stock, resulting in dilution of common stockholders’ interest in our company.


Our As a result of the HIREIT Merger, the Company acquired the Advisor's interest of affiliates of Allen Hartman in exchange for 602,842 Operating Partnership OP units with a fair value of $6,525,000. Prior to our acquisition of the

72


70% of the advisor owned by affiliates of Allen Hartman, 700 shares of our convertible preferred stock were distributed to the affiliates of Allen Hartman. Further, as a result of the HIREIT Merger, Allen Hartman's HIREIT Operating Partnership units converted into 839,415 Operating Partnership OP units.

The shares of our convertible stock held by our advisor will convert into shares of our common stock if (1) we have made total distributions on then then outstanding shares of our common stock equal to the issue price of those shares plus a 6% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on the issue price of those outstanding shares, (2) we list our common stock for trading on a national securities exchange, ifprovided that the sum of prior distributions on then outstanding shares of our common stock plus the aggregate market value of our common  stock  (based on the 30-day  average  closing   price) meets  the  same  6%  performance  threshold,  or  (3)  our  advisory agreement with our advisor expires without renewal or is terminated (other than because of a material breach by our advisor), and at the time of such expiration or termination we are deemed to have met the foregoing 6% performance threshold based on our enterprise value and prior distributions and, at or subsequent to the expiration or termination, the stockholders actually realize such level of performance upon listing or through total distributions. In general, the convertible stock will convert into shares of common stock with a value equal to 15% of the excess of our enterprise value plus the aggregate value of distributions paid to date on then outstanding shares of common stock over the aggregate issue price of those outstanding shares plus a 6% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on the issue price of those outstanding shares. With respect to conversion in connection with the termination of the advisory agreement, this calculation is made at the time of termination even though the actual conversion may occur later, or not at all.

Fees and Expense Reimbursements Paid to our Advisor


Pursuant to the terms of our Advisory Agreement, we pay our advisor the fees described below.

    We pay our advisor an acquisition fee of 2.5% of (1) the total cost of investment, as defined in connection with the acquisition or origination of any type of real property or real estate-related asset or (2) our allocable cost of a real property or real estate-related asset acquired in a joint venture, in each case including purchase price, acquisition expenses and any debt attributable to such investments. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we paid our advisor aggregate acquisition fees of $1,751,775 and 1,401,275, respectively. For the period from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2015, we incurred acquisition fees of $4,434,675 in connection with the acquisitions.

    We pay our advisor an annual asset management fee that is payable monthly in an amount equal to one-twelfth of 0.75% of the higher of the cost or value of each asset, where the cost equals the amount actually paid or budgeted (excluding acquisition fees and expenses), including the amount of any debt attributable to the asset (including debt encumbering the asset after its acquisition) and where the value of an asset is the value established by the most recent independent valuation report, if available. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 we paid asset management fees payable to our advisor of $1,012,256 and $548,902, respectively.

We pay our advisor a debt financing fee equal to 1.0% of the amount available under any loan or line of credit we obtain and use to acquire properties or other permitted investments, which will be in addition to the acquisition fee paid to our advisor.  For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we did not pay our advisor any debt financing fees.

If our property manager provides a substantial amount of services, as determined by our independent directors, in connection with the sale of one or more assets, it will receive a disposition fee equal to (1) in the case of the sale of real property, the lesser of: (A) one-half of the aggregate brokerage commission paid (including the disposition fee) or, if none is paid, the amount that customarily would be paid, or (B) 3% of the sales price of each property sold, and (2) in the case of the sale of any asset other than real property, 3% of the sales price of such asset.  With respect to a property held in a joint venture, the foregoing disposition fee will be reduced to a percentage of such amounts reflecting our economic interest in the joint venture. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we did not pay our advisor any disposition fees.

In addition to the fees we pay to our advisor pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, we also reimburse our advisor and its affiliates for the costs and expenses:

Pursuant to our Advisory Agreement, we are obligated to reimburse our advisor and its affiliates, as applicable, for organization and offering costs (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) incurred on our behalf associated with each of our public offerings, but only to the extent that such reimbursements do not exceed actual expenses incurred by our advisor and would not cause our total organization and offering expenses related to our primary offering (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) to exceed 1.5% of gross offering proceeds from the primary offering. Our advisor and its affiliates will be responsible for the payment of organization and offering expenses (other than selling commissions and the dealer manager fee) to the extent they exceed 1.5% of gross offering proceeds from the primary offering. As of December 31, 2015, total offering costs for our follow-on offering were $10,689,266. We directly incurred $10,689,266 of offering costs for our follow-on offering and $0 in offering costs reimbursable to our advisor for our follow-on offering. As of December 31, 2015, offering costs related to our follow-on offering exceeded 1.5% of the gross offering proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock in our primary follow-on offering. Pursuant to our charter, in no event may organization and offering costs (including selling commissions and the dealer manager fees) incurred by us in connection with a completed public offering exceed 15.0% of the gross offering proceeds from the sale of our shares of common stock in the completed public offering. As of December 31, 2015, the organization and offering costs incurred in connection with our follow-on offering did not exceed 15.0% of the gross offering proceeds from the sale of our shares of common stock in the follow-on offering. 








Pursuant to our Advisory Agreement and our charter, we will reimburse our advisor for all operating expenses paid or incurred by our advisor in connection with the services provided to us. However, we will not reimburse our advisor or its affiliates at the end of any fiscal quarter for total operating expenses (as defined in our Advisory Agreement)) that for the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended, or the “expense year,” exceeded the greater of (1) 2% of our average invested assets or (2) 25% of our net income, which we refer to as the “2%/25% Guidelines,” and our advisor must reimburse us quarterly for any amounts by which our total operating expenses exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines in the expense year, unless our independent directors have determined that such excess expenses were justified based on unusual and non-recurring factors. For the four fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2015, our total operating expenses were $2,713,874.  Of the $2,713,874 in total operating expenses incurred during the four fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2015, none exceeded the 2%/25% Limitation. We reimbursed our advisor $0 in operating expenses during the four fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2015.

We reimburse our advisor for all expenses related to the selection and acquisition of assets, whether or not acquired by us, including, but not limited to, legal fees and expenses, travel and communications expenses and costs of appraisals. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had reimbursed our advisor for $0 and $0 of acquisition expenses, respectively.

Policies and Procedures for Transactions with Related Persons



In order to reduce or eliminate certain potential conflicts of interest, our charter and our Advisory Agreement contain restrictions and conflict resolution procedures relating to transactions we enter into with our advisor, our directors or their respective affiliates. Each of the restrictions and procedures that apply to transactions with our advisor and its affiliates will also apply to any transaction with any entity or real estate program controlled by our advisor and its affiliates. As a general rule, any related party transaction must be approved by a majority of the directors (including a majority of independent directors) not otherwise interested in the transaction. In determining whether to approve or authorize a particular related party transaction, these persons will consider whether the transaction between us and the related party is fair and reasonable to us and has terms and conditions no less favorable to us than those available from unaffiliated third parties.



Director Independence



As required by our charter, a majority of the members of our Board of Directors must qualify as “independent directors,” as such term is defined by our charter. Our charter defines independent director in accordance with the North American Securities Administrators Association, Inc.’s Statement of Policy Regarding Real Estate Investment Trusts, as revised and adopted on May 7, 2007. As defined in our charter, an independent director is a person who is not, on the date of determination, and within the last two years from the date of determination been, directly or indirectly, associated with our sponsor or our advisor by virtue of (1) ownership of an interest in our sponsor, our advisor, or any of their affiliates; (2) employment by our sponsor, our advisor, or any of their affiliates; (3) service as an officer or director of our sponsor, our advisor, or any of their affiliates (other than as one of our directors); (4) performance of services, other than as a director, for us; (5) service as a director or trustee of more than three real estate investment trusts organized by our sponsor or advised by our advisor; or (6) maintenance of a material business or professional relationship with our sponsor, our advisor, or any of their affiliates. A business or professional relationship is considered “material” if the aggregate gross revenue derived by the director from the sponsor, the advisor, and their affiliates exceeds 5.0% of either the director’s annual gross revenue during either of the last two years or the director’s net worth on a fair market value basis. An indirect association with the sponsor or the advisor shall include circumstances in which a director’s spouse, parent, child, sibling, mother- or father-in-law, son- or daughter-in-law, or brother- or sister-in-law is or has been associated with the sponsor, the advisor, any of their affiliates, or with us.



We have a three-memberfive-member board of directors. One of our directors, Allen R. Hartman, is affiliated with our sponsor and its affiliates, and weWe do not consider Mr. Hartman to be an independent director. After review of all relevant transactions or relationships between each director, or any of his family members, and our company, our senior management and our independent registered public accounting firm, our board has determined that Messrs. Tompkins, Haddock, Still and Ruskey,Schulze, who comprise the majority of our board, qualify as independent directors as defined in our charter.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hartman Short Term IncomeSilver Star Properties XX,REIT, Inc. (a Maryland Corporation) and Subsidiaries (the
(the Company) as of December 31, 20152022 and 2014,2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2015. Our audits also included2022, and the related notes and schedule (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial statement schedule listedposition of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the Indexperiod ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the entity will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to Consolidated Financial Statements at Item 15, Schedule III – Real Estate Assets and Accumulated Depreciation and Amortization. the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s Hartman SPE term loan has a maturity date less than twelve months from the date these consolidated financial statements are issued, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’sentity’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and schedule based on our audits.


We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

F-1


Evaluation of real estate assets for potential impairment. Refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The Company evaluates, on at least an annual basis, its real estate assets for potential impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the value of real estate assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.

We identified the evaluation of real estate assets for potential impairment and management’s determination of fair values as a critical audit matter. Subjective and challenging auditor judgement was required to evaluate certain assumptions used in determining the recoverability of these assets. Management’s impairment analysis of its real estate assets was significant to our audit because the amounts are material to the consolidated financial statements. Auditing management’s assessment is complex and involves significant judgment as the Company’s ability to generate future cash flows could be impacted by various economic and industry conditions.

How we addressed the matter in our audit

We obtained an understanding of the design and implementation of management’s controls with respect to impairment analysis and evaluated the inputs used and underlying significant assumptions.

Our testing of the Company's impairment analysis included, among other procedures, evaluating the methods and underlying significant assumptions used to develop the fair value estimates, testing the accuracy and completeness of operating data used in the calculation, identifying capitalization rates by geographic market, assessing the reasonableness of the market-specific capitalization rates, and performing a sensitivity analysis of the underlying significant assumptions to evaluate the potential changes in the fair value estimates. We also utilized an auditor specialist to assist in estimating the fair values based upon recent market comparable transactions.

Presentation and disclosure of related party transactions. Refer to Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The Company has a material amount of related party transactions as it regularly transacts with multiple other Hartman affiliates in the normal course of business.

Auditing the presentation and disclosure of these related party transactions, including the completeness thereof, was challenging due to the affiliates involvement in many aspects of the Company’s business, including (1) formal and informal affiliate borrowings and advances, and (2) joint and several liability indebtedness with pledged property collateral.

How we addressed the matter in our audit

We obtained an understanding of the design and implementation of controls over the Company’s process of identifying and disclosing related party transactions.

To test the completeness of related party transactions, a listing of all related party relationships was compared to the Hartman affiliates legal structure and evidence obtained from other audit procedures including, among others, inquiries of management and the audit committee, review of the board of directors and other committee meeting minutes, and review of contracts. In addition, using the related party listing, we performed procedures to test material respects,related party account activity and account balances including, among others, testing the information set forth therein.


related party amounts and disclosures of transactions in revenue, expense, and balance sheet accounts by inspecting source documentation, and evaluating the aggregation and presentation and disclosure of related party transactions. Further, for the joinder agreement transaction, we obtained written confirmation from an affiliate on the terms of the transaction.

The Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company established a share redemption program (the "Redemption Plan"), which permitted stockholders to sell their shares back to the Company, subject to certain significant conditions and limitations. On July 8, 2022, the Board voted to suspend the Redemption Plan to support the long-term fiscal health of the Company.

The Company does not anticipate that there will be any market for its shares of common stock unless they are listed on a national securities exchange. The Executive Committee has adopted resolutions directing management to begin the process of listing the Company’s shares on an established securities exchange, and it is taking steps to accomplish the listing, including without limitation engaging the services of an investment bank to assist with the listing.

On October 14, 2022, the Company’s board of directors formed the Executive Committee, composed of independent directors, to continue the review of strategic alternatives with the objective of maximizing shareholder value and to streamline the communicating, reporting, and decision-making between the board and the Chief Executive Officer.

SILVER STAR PROPERTIES REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In addition to our rental income, the Company also earns fee revenues by providing certain management and advisory services to related parties. These fees are accounted for within the scope of ASC 606 and are recorded as management and advisory income on the consolidated statements of operations. These services primarily include asset management and advisory, operating and leasing of properties, and construction management. These services are currently provided under various combinations of advisory agreements, property management agreements, and other revenueservice agreements (the "Management Agreements"). The wide variety of duties within the Management Agreements makes determining the performance obligations within the contracts a matter of judgment. We have concluded that each of the separately disclosed fee types in the periodbelow table represents a separate performance obligation within the relatedManagement Agreements.
FeePerformance Obligation Satisfied Timing of PaymentDescription
Property ManagementOver timeDue monthlyThe Company provides property management services on a contractual basis for owners of and investors in office and retail properties. The Company is compensated for our services through a monthly management fee earned based on a fixed fee. We are also often reimbursed for our administrative and payroll costs directly attributable to the properties under management. Revenue is recognized at the end of each month.
Property Leasing and Property Acquisition ServicesPoint in time (upon close of a transaction)Upon completionThe Company provides strategic advice and execution for owners, investors, and occupiers of real estate in connection with the leasing of office and retail space. The Company is compensated for our services in the form of a commission and, in some instances may earn various forms of variable incentive consideration. Commission is paid upon the occurrence of certain contractual event. For leases, the Company typically satisfies its performance obligation at a point in time when control is transferred. Revenue is recognized in an amount equal to the fees charged by unaffiliated persons rendering comparable services. For acquisitions, our commission is typically paid at the closing date of sale, which represents transfer of control of services to the customer.

required to constrain our estimate to an amount that is not probable of significant revenue reversal. For most of these fee types, such as acquisition fees and leasing commissions, compensation only occurs if a transaction takes place and the amount of compensation is dependent upon the terms of the transaction. For our property and asset management fees, due to the large number and broad range of possible consideration amounts, we calculate the amount earned at the end of each month.

Real Estate



Allocation of Purchase Price of Acquired Assets



Upon the acquisition of real properties, it is the Company’s policy to allocate the purchase price of properties to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land and buildings, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and leasehold improvements and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values. The Company utilizes internal valuation methods to determine the fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and buildings).



The fair values of above-market and below-market in-place lease values, including below-market renewal options for which renewal has been determined to be reasonably assured, are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (a) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (b) an estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases and below-market renewal options, which is generally obtained from independent appraisals, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The above-market and below-market lease and renewal option values are capitalized as intangible lease assets or liabilities and amortized as an adjustment of rental revenue over the remaining expected terms of the respective leases.



The fair values of in-place leases include direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, opportunity costs associated with lost rentals which are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease, and tenant relationships. Direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant include commissions, tenant improvements, and other direct costs and are estimated based on independent appraisals and management’s consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. These direct costs are included in intangible lease assets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The value of opportunity costs is calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease. Customer relationships are valued based on expected renewal of a lease or the likelihood of obtaining a particular tenant for other locations. These intangibles are included in real estate assets in the consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized to expense over the remaining term of the respective leases.



The determination of the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired requires the use of significant assumptions with regard to the current market rental rates, rental growth rates, discount rates and other variables. The use of inappropriateinaccurate estimates would result in an incorrect assessment of the purchase price allocations, which could impact the amount of the Company’s reported net loss.


income (loss).


Real Estate Joint Ventures and Partnerships

To determine the method of accounting for partially owned real estate joint ventures and partnerships, management determines whether an entity is a variable interest entity ("VIE") and, if so, determines which party is the primary beneficiary by analyzing whether we have both the power to direct the entity’s significant economic activities and the obligation to absorb potentially significant losses or receive potentially significant benefits. Significant judgments and assumptions inherent in this analysis include the design of the entity structure, the nature of the entity’s operations, future cash flow projections, the entity’s financing and capital structure, and contractual relationships and terms. We consolidate a VIE when we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary.

Primary risks associated with our involvement with our VIEs include the potential funding of the entities’ debt obligations or making additional contributions to fund the entities’ operations or capital activities.

Partially owned, non-variable interest real estate joint ventures and partnerships over which we have a controlling financial interest are consolidated in our consolidated financial statements. In determining if we have a controlling financial interest, we consider factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions, kick-out


F-13

SILVER STAR PROPERTIES REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
rights and substantive participating rights. Partially owned real estate joint ventures and partnerships where we do not have a controlling financial interest, but have the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method.

Management continually analyzes and assesses reconsideration events, including changes in the factors mentioned above, to determine if the consolidation or equity method treatment remains appropriate.

Depreciation and amortization



Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 5 to 39 years for buildings and improvements. Tenant improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the lesser of the life of the improvement or the remaining term of the lease. In-place leases are amortized using the straight-line method over the weighted average years remaining calculated inon terms of all of the leases in-place when acquired.



Impairment



The Company reviews its real estate assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets, including accrued rental income, may not be recoverable through operations. The Company determines whether an impairment in value has occurred by comparing the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges), including the estimated residual value of the property, with the carrying cost of the property. If impairment is indicated, a loss will be recorded for the amount by which the carrying



F-8




HARTMAN SHORT TERM INCOME PROPERTIES XX, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


value of the property exceeds its fair value.  Management has determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of the Company’s real estate assets as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.



Projections of expected future cash flows require management to estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, discount rates, the number of months it takes to releasere-lease the property and the number of years the property is held for investment. The use of inappropriateinaccurate assumptions in the future cash flow analysis would result in an incorrect assessment of the property’s future cash flow and fair value and could result in the overstatement of the carrying value of the Company’s real estate and related intangible assets and net income.



Fair Value Measurement

Fair value measures are classified into a three-tiered fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1:

Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.

Level 2:

Directly or indirectly observable inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets.

Level 3:

Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require a reporting entity to

develop its own assumptions.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on one or more of the following valuation techniques:

Market approach:

Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving

identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

Cost approach:

Amount required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

Income approach:

Techniques used to convert future amounts to a single amount based on market

expectations (including present-value, option-pricing, and excess-earnings models).

The Company’s estimates of fair value were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value.


F-14

SILVER STAR PROPERTIES REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The use of different market assumptions or estimation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.  The Company classifies assets and liabilities in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.


Accrued Rent


Recurring fair value measurements:

The carrying values of cash and Accounts Receivable


       Included incash equivalents, restricted cash, accrued rent and accounts receivable, other assets and accounts payable and accrued expenses are reasonable estimates of fair values because of the short maturities of these instruments. For our disclosure of debt instrument fair value in Note 8, we use a discounted cash flow analysis based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and maturities, discounting the future contractual interest and principal payments (categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy). For our disclosure of interest rate cap derivative fair value, refer to Note 6. Fair value determination of the interest rate cap derivative is based on Level 2 inputs.


Nonrecurring fair value measurements:

Property Impairments

The Company reviews its real estate assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets, including accrued rental income, may not be recoverable through operations. Our estimated fair values are determined by utilizing cash flow models, market capitalization rates and market discount rates, obtaining third-party broker valuation estimates, or appraisals (categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy).

Accrued Rent and Accounts Receivable, net

Accrued rent and accounts receivable includes base rents, tenant reimbursements and receivables attributable to recording rents on a straight-line basis. An allowance for the uncollectible portion of accrued rent and accounts receivable is determined based upon customer credit-worthiness (including expected recovery of the Company’s claim with respect to any tenants in bankruptcy), historical bad debt levels, and current economic trends.


Deferred Loan and Leasing Commissions Costs,


       Loan costs are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the terms of the loans, which approximates the interest method.   net


Leasing commissions are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the related lease agreements.



Goodwill


       Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States require


GAAP requires the Company to test goodwill for impairment at least annually or more frequently whenever events or circumstances occur indicating goodwill might be impaired.  The Company has the option to performapplies a qualitativeone-step quantitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value is less than the carrying amount. If the qualitative assessment determines that it is more likely than not thatcarrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value, is less than the carrying amount, or if the Company electswill record a goodwill impairment equal to bypasssuch excess, not to exceed the qualitative assessment, the Company performs a two-step impairment test.  In the first step, management compares its net book value of the Company to the carryingtotal amount of goodwill at the balance sheet date. In the event net book value of the Company is less than the carrying amount of

Income Taxes



The Company has elected to be treated as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2011. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of the Company’s annual REIT taxable income to stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that it distributes as dividends to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four

Income (Loss) Per Share

The computations of basic and diluted lossincome (loss) per common share are based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive securities. The Company’s potentially dilutive securities include preferred shares that are convertible into the Company’s common stock. As of December 31, 20152022 and 2014,2021, there were no shares issuable in connection with these potentially dilutive securities. These potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computations of diluted net lossincome (loss) per share for the years ended December 31, 20152022 and 20142021 because no shares are issuable and inclusion of such potentially dilutive securities would have been anti-dilutive.

Going Concern Evaluation

Pursuant to ASC 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern,” management is required to evaluate the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these consolidated financial statements are issued. The Hartman SPE, LLC loan agreement (the “SASB Loan”) had an initial maturity date of October 9, 2020.The SASB Loan provides for three successive one-year maturity date extensions. On October 9, 2022, SPE LLC executed the third and 2014, respectively.


final maturity date option to extend the maturity to October 9, 2023.


The October 9, 2023 SASB Loan maturity date is within one year of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. Uncertainty as to the Company's ability to obtain financing to satisfy the existing SASB Loan obligation requires management to conclude, in accordance with guidance provided by ASU 2014-15, that there is a substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements. The Company is working with our third party advisor on refinancing options that align with a range of strategic alternatives under evaluation. Management believes that the SASB Loan Borrower will be able to obtain financing to replace the SASB Loan prior to the October 9, 2023 maturity date, however, no assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in achieving a refinance. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company's ability to refinance the SASB Loan prior to the maturity date.

Correction of an Immaterial Error

During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company identified an error related to the number of outstanding shares of its common stock. Subsequent to the Merger Agreements referenced in Note 1 (Organization and Business), shares of the 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan were not appropriately eliminated. Shares contributed to the plan are mandatory redeemable upon separation and thus recorded as a liability. Additionally, immaterial share count corrections were made to shares converted via the Merger Agreements.

Management has considered both the quantitative and qualitative impact of the error and has concluded that the prior period error was immaterial to the previously issued financial statements. As such, management has elected to correct the error in the current period. The outstanding share correction is presented in the "Outstanding shares correction" line item on the 2022 consolidated statement of stockholders' equity. There error resulted in no change to the Company's net loss per share and had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 6 - Derivative Financial Instruments

On October 5, 2022, the Company entered into an interest rate cap agreement with respect to the $259 million SASB Loan through the maturity date of October 9, 2023. The agreement capped the underlying one-month LIBOR rate at 3.75%. The Company has elected not to apply hedge accounting and the change in fair value of the the interest rate cap is recognized as a component of interest expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The counterparty under the interest rate cap is a major financial institution. The Company paid a premium of $2,254,000 for the interest rate cap. As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of this cap was $2,351,000 and included in other assets in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognized $98,000 of interest income from paid and accrued counterparty payments and $97,000 of gain from change in fair value of the interest rate cap during the year ended December 31, 2022. These amounts are recorded as a component of interest expense on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

The fair value of this interest rate cap is determined using observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities. These inputs are considered Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. In addition, any credit valuation adjustments are considered in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk to the extent they would be significant inputs to the calculation. It was determined that credit valuation adjustments were not considered to be significant inputs.

Federal income taxes are not provided for because we qualify as a REIT under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and because we have distributed and intend to continue to distribute all of our taxable income to our stockholders.

HARTMAN SHORT TERM INCOME PROPERTIES XX, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Our stockholders include their proportionate taxable income in their individual tax returns. As a REIT, we must distribute at least 90% of our real estate investment trust taxable income to our stockholders and meet certain income sources and investment restriction requirements. In addition, REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on our taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. The Company’s federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2012, 20132015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 20142020 have not been examined by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company’s federal income tax return for the year ended December 31, 20122016 may be examined on or before September 15, 2016.


2023. 


The Company has formed a taxable REIT subsidiary which may generate future taxable income which may be offset by the net loss carry forward. The Company considers that any deferred tax benefit and corresponding deferred tax asset which may be recorded in the light of the net loss carry forward would be properly offset by an equal valuation allowance. Accordingly, no deferred tax benefit or deferred tax asset has been recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

The Company is required to recognize in its consolidated financial statements the financial effects of a tax position only if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the tax position will not be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position.  Management has reviewed the Company’s tax positions and is of the opinion that material positions taken by the Company would more likely than not be sustained upon examination. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized a liability related to uncertain tax positions.

Taxable income (loss) differs from net income (loss) for financial reporting purposes principally due to differences in the timing of recognition of interest, real estate taxes, depreciation and amortization and rental revenue.

During February 2021, the state of Texas experienced a severe winter storm, unofficially referred to as Winter Storm Uri, which resulted in power outages and electrical grid failures across the state. Wholesale prices for electricity increased significantly during this period. As a result, we experienced a substantial increase in electricity billings for a number of our properties during the month of and after the storm.

On May 26, 2021, Summer Energy LLC (“Summer”) filed a lawsuit against Hartman Income REIT Management, Inc. (the “Property Manager”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company is dependent onthat manages our properties, in state court in Harris County, Texas. In this lawsuit, Summer seeks to collect approximately $8.4 million from the Property Manager that Summer claims that the Property Manager owes Summer under one or more electricity sales agreements (“Agreements”) related to Winter Storm Uri. Of the approximately $8.4 million claimed in the lawsuit, approximately $7.6 million relates to wholly owned properties of the Company. Under the Agreements, Summer provided electricity to buildings managed by the Property Manager at indexed prices.

On March 24, 2022, the court entered a judgment in favor of Summer against the Property Manager in the amount of $7,871,000 plus customary pre- and post-judgment interest and attorney's fees.The Company had recognized the Advisor for certain services that are essentialshare of the judgment amount applicable to wholly owned properties of the Company, includingapproximately $6,731,000, within the identification, evaluation, negotiation, purchaseCompany's consolidated statements of operations for fiscal year 2021.

Charter provision regarding liquidity or liquidation

The Company does not anticipate that there will be any market for its shares of common stock unless they are listed on a national securities exchange. In the event that Company shares of common stock are not listed or traded on an established securities exchange prior to the tenth anniversary of the completion or termination of the Company's initial public offering, which terminated on April 25, 2013, the Company's charter requires that the board of directors must seek the approval of the stockholders of a plan to liquidate assets, unless the board of directors has obtained the approval of the stockholders (1) to defer the liquidation of our assets or (2) of an alternate strategy. If the stockholders do not approve the proposal presented by the board of directors prior to the end of ten years after the termination of the Company’s initial public offering, the board of directors shall begin the process of liquidating the Company’s assets or listing the Company’s shares. The Executive Committee has adopted resolutions directing management to begin the process of listing the Company’s shares on an established securities exchange, and it is taking steps to accomplish the listing, including without limitation engaging the services of an investment bank to assist with the listing.
