Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share/unit data and where indicated in millions) (Unaudited)

1. Organization

Lightstone Value Plus Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. (the “Lightstone REIT II”) is a Maryland corporation formed on April 28, 2008, which has qualified as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes since its taxable year ending December 31, 2009. The Lightstone REIT II was formed primarily for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing in and owning commercial and residential real estate properties located principally in North America, as well as other real estate-related securities, such as collateralized debt obligations, commercial mortgage-backed securities and mortgage and mezzanine loans secured, directly or indirectly, by the same types of properties which it may acquire directly.

The Lightstone REIT II is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT, and substantially all of its current and future business is and will be conducted through Lightstone Value Plus REIT II LP (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership formed on April 30, 2008.

The Lightstone REIT II and the Operating Partnership are collectively referred to as the ‘‘Company’’ and the use of ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘our,’’ ‘‘us’’ or similar pronouns refers to the Lightstone REIT II, its Operating Partnership or the Company as required by the context in which such pronoun is used.

The Company’s registration statement on Form S-11, pursuant to which it offered to sell a maximum of 51,000,000 shares of its common stock (exclusive of 6,500,000 shares which were available pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”), and 255,000 shares which were reserved for issuance under its Employee and Director Incentive Restricted Share Plan), at a price of $10.00 per share (subject to certain volume discounts), was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933 on February 17, 2009, and on April 24, 2009 the Company commenced its initial public offering of common stock (the “Offering”). The Offering will terminate no later than August 15, 2012.

The Company has filed a registration statement on Form S-11 (the “Follow-On Offering”), pursuant to which it is offering to sell a maximum of 30,000,000 shares of its common stock (exclusive of 2,500,000 shares available pursuant to its DRIP) and 255,000 shares reserved for issuance under the its Employee and Director Incentive Restricted Share Plan), at a price of $10.00 per share (subject to certain volume discounts). As of the date of this filling, the Follow-On Offering has not been declared effective by SEC under the Securities Act of 1933.

Effective July 8, 2011, ICON Securities Corp. (“ICON Securities”) became the dealer manager (“Dealer Manager”) of the primary shares under the Company’s Offering pursuant to an Assignment and Amendment of Dealer Manager Agreement (the “Assignment and Amendment”). Pursuant to the Assignment and Amendment, ICON Securities was assigned the Dealer Manager Agreement between Lightstone Securities LLC ("Lightstone Securities”) and the Company dated February 17, 2009 and assumed all of Lightstone Securities’ rights and obligations thereunder from and after the effective date of the Assignment and Amendment. Prior to July 8, 2011, Lightstone Securities served as the dealer manager for the primary shares under the Company’s Offering. All further references to the Dealer Manager will be deemed to refer to either Lightstone Securities or ICON Securities during the respective period of time that each was serving in such capacity. As of July 8, 2011, upon the effectiveness of the Assignment and Amendment, the Wholesaling Agreement between the Company, Lightstone Securities LLC and ICON Securities, dated as of November 11, 2010 was terminated.

Our Sponsor and ICON Capital Corp. (“ICON Capital”), an affiliate of ICON Securities, have entered into a joint venture with respect to its management. Pursuant to the joint venture, ICON Capital has been admitted as a member to Lightstone Value Plus REIT II, LLC (the “Advisor”), the advisor to the Company, and Lightstone SLP II LLC, the holder of subordinated profits interests in the Operating Partnership (the “Subordinated Profits Interests”), which is majority owned and controlled by the Sponsor.

As of June 30, 2012, our Advisor owned 20,000 shares which were issued by us on May 20, 2008 for $200, or $10.00 per share. In addition, as of September 30, 2009, the Company had reached the minimum offering under its Offering by receiving subscriptions of its common shares, representing gross offering proceeds of approximately $6.5 million, and effective October 1, 2009 investors were admitted as stockholders and the Operating Partnership commenced operations. Through June 30, 2012, cumulative gross offering proceeds of $48.6 million were released to the Company. The Company invested the proceeds received from the Offering and from the Advisor in the Operating Partnership, and as a result, held a 99.99% general partnership interest at June 30, 2012 in the Operating Partnership’s common units.

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share/unit data and where indicated in millions) (Unaudited)

The Company’s shares of common stock are not currently listed on a national securities exchange. The Company may seek to list its shares of common stock for trading on a national securities exchange only if a majority of its independent directors believe listing would be in the best interest of its stockholders. The Company does not intend to list its shares at this time. The Company does not anticipate that there would be any market for its shares of common stock until they are listed for trading. In the event the Company does not obtain listing prior to the tenth anniversary of the completion or termination of its Offering, its charter requires that the Board of Directors must either (i) seek stockholder approval of an extension or amendment of this listing deadline; or (ii) seek stockholder approval to adopt a plan of liquidation of the corporation.

Noncontrolling Interests – Partners of Operating Partnership

On May 20, 2008, the Advisor contributed $2 to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 200 limited partner units in the Operating Partnership. The limited partner has the right to convert operating partnership units into cash or, at the option of the Company, an equal number of common shares of the Company, as allowed by the limited partnership agreement.

Lightstone SLP II LLC, which is majority owned and controlled by the Company’s Sponsor committed to purchase Subordinated Profits Interests at a cost of $100,000 per unit for each $1.0 million in subscriptions up to ten percent of the proceeds from the primary shares under the Offering and the Follow-On Offering, which has not yet been declared effective, on a semi-annual basis beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Lightstone SLP II LLC may elect to purchase the Subordinated Profits Interests with either cash or an interest in real property of equivalent value. Any proceeds received from the cash sale of the Subordinated Profits Interests, , will be used to offset payments made by the Company from offering proceeds to pay the dealer manager fees, selling commissions and other offering costs.

From our inception through June 30, 2012, the Company’s Sponsor has contributed cash of approximately $0.2 million and elected to contribute equity interests totaling 45.1% in Brownmill, LLC (“Brownmill”) in exchange for a total of 46.0 Subordinated Profits Interests with an aggregate value of $4.6 million. The Company’s Sponsor may continue to elect to contribute interests in real property in lieu of cash in exchange for Subordinated Profits Interests in order to fulfill its semi-annual commitment. See Note 3 for additional information regarding Brownmill.

New Accounting Pronouncements

On January 1, 2012, the Company adopted changes issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) to the presentation of comprehensive income. These changes give an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements; the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity was eliminated. The items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income were not changed. Additionally, no changes were made to the calculation and presentation of earnings per share. Management elected to present the two-statement option. Other than the change in presentation, the adoption of these changes had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company has determined that all other recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows, or do not apply to its operations.

3. Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliated Entities

The entities listed below are partially owned by the Company.

Brownmill

During 2010, 2011 and 2012, the Company, through its Operating Partnership, entered into four separate contribution agreements between the Operating Partnership and Lightstone Holdings LLC (‘‘LGH’’), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company’s Sponsor, pursuant to which LGH contributed to the Operating Partnership an approximate aggregate 45.1% equity interest (34.4%, 5.6% and 5.1% in 2010, 2011 and 2012, respectively) in Brownmill in order to fulfill the Sponsor’s semi-annual commitment to purchase Subordinated Profits Interests with cash or contributed property. In exchange, the Operating Partnership issued an aggregate of 44 units (33, 6 and 5 in 2010, 2011 and 2012, respectively) of Subordinated Profits Interests, at $100,000 per unit (at an aggregate total value of $4.4 million, of which $3.3 million, $0.6 million and $0.5 million were in 2010, 2011 and 2012, respectively), to Lightstone SLP II LLC.

The aggregate fair value of the Company’s 45.1% interest in Brownmill, based on estimated fair values as of the effective dates of the applicable contributions, was approximately $14.8 million, of which $4.4 million was in the form of equity and $10.4 million was in the form of mortgage indebtedness.

As a result of these contributions in exchange for Subordinated Profit Interests, as of June 30, 2012, the Operating Partnership owns an approximate 45.1% membership interest in Brownmill. The Company’s interest in Brownmill is a non-managing interest. An affiliate of the Company’s Sponsor is the majority owner and manager of Brownmill. Profit and cash distributions are allocated in accordance with each investor’s ownership percentage. The Company recorded its investment in Brownmill in accordance with the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, its portion of Brownmill’s total indebtedness is not included in the investment. In connection with the contributions of the ownership interests in Brownmill, the Company did not incur any transactions fees.

Brownmill owns two retail properties known as Browntown Shopping Center, located in Old Bridge, New Jersey, and Millburn Mall, located in Vauxhaull, New Jersey, which collectively, are referred to as the ‘‘Brownmill Properties.’’

Brownmill Financial Information

The Company’s carrying value of its interest in Brownmill differs from its share of member’s equity reported in the condensed balance sheet of Brownmill due to the Company’s basis of its investment in excess of the historical net book value of Brownmill. The Company’s additional basis allocated to depreciable assets is being recognized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the appropriate assets.

5. Marketable Securities and Fair Value Measurements

Marketable Securities:

The following is a summary of the Company’s available for sale securities as of the dates indicated:

	As of June 30, 2012
	Adjusted Cost		Gross Unrealized Gains		Gross Unrealized Losses			Fair Value
Equity Securities	$	7,915	$	-	$	(800	)	$	7,115

	As of December 31, 2011
	Adjusted Cost		Gross Unrealized Gains		Gross Unrealized Losses			Fair Value
Equity Securities	$	7,915	$	-	$	(2,214	)	$	5,701

Since the Company purchased all of it equity securities in July 2011, all of the equity securities with unrealized losses as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were in a loss position for less than 12 months. The Company has not sold nor otherwise disposed of any of its marketable securities during this period.

Beginning in July 2011, the Company has had access to a margin loan from a financial institution that holds custody of certain of the Company’s marketable securities. The margin loan, which is due on demand, bears interest at Libor plus 0.85% (1.10% as of June 30, 2012) and is collateralized by the marketable securities in the Company’s account. The amounts available to the Company under the margin loan are at the discretion of the financial institution and not limited to the amount of collateral in its account. The amount outstanding under this margin loan was $3.0 million and $3.3 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Interest expense on the margin loan was $9 and $18 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

The Company considers the declines in market value of its investment portfolio to be temporary in nature. When evaluating the investments for other-than-temporary impairment, the Company reviews factors such as the length of time and extent to which fair value has been below cost basis, the financial condition of the issuer and any changes thereto, and the Company’s intent to sell, or whether it is more likely than not it will be required to sell, the investment before recovery of the investment’s amortized cost basis. During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not recognize any impairment charges. As of June 30, 2012, the Company does not consider any of its investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value:

• Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, 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 assets or liabilities.

• Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, all of the Company’s equity securities were classified as Level 1 assets and there were no transfers between the level classifications during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

6. Mortgage Loan Receivable and Restricted Escrow

On June 29, 2010, the Company purchased a fixed-rate of 5.916%, nonrecourse mortgage note (the “Loan”) from Citigroup Global Markets Realty Corp. (“CGMC”), an unrelated third party, for $7.9 million. The Loan was originated by the CGMC in August 2007 with an original principal balance of $18.7 million and is collateralized by a 141-room limited service hotel located in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The hotel is currently operating under a Marriott Franchise Agreement as a Fairfield Inn. The Loan was scheduled to mature in September 2017 under its original term, and has been in default since February 2009.

The Company initially recorded the Loan as a mortgage loan receivable at $7.9 million, net of a discount of $10.8 million, on its consolidated balance sheet. As the Loan is in default, the Company is not amortizing the discount.

The borrower under the loan agreement is required to transfer any excess cash to the Company on a monthly basis. Prior to April 1, 2011, the Company, was applying the excess cash to required funding for taxes and insurance and other escrow related disbursements and any remaining cash was applied to outstanding principal and the excess, if any, was to be recognized as interest income (the cost recovery method of income recognition). On April 1, 2011, the Company determined that it was no longer probable that it would take ownership in the foreseeable future and stopped applying the cost recovery method and instead began to apply the cash receipts method of income recognition, whereby the Company will recognize any excess cash, after the required funding for taxes and insurance and other escrow related disbursements, as interest income until such time as the borrower is current on all amounts owed to the Company for interest and then any remaining cash will be applied to outstanding principal. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 the Company recognized interest income of $189 and $189, respectively, on the mortgage loan receivable. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized interest income of $251 and $251, respectively on the mortgage loan receivable.

7. Acquisition of a TownePlace Suites Hotel

On January 19, 2011, the Company, through LVP Metairie JV, LLC (“LVP Metairie JV”), a joint venture subsidiary of its Operating Partnership, completed the acquisition of a 95.0% ownership interest in a four-story, limited service extended-stay hotel located in Harahan, Louisiana (the “TownePlace Suites Hotel”) from Citrus Suites, LLC, an unrelated third party. The remaining 5.0% ownership interest was acquired by TPS Metairie, LLC, an unrelated third party.  During the first quarter of 2011, TPS Metairie, LLC contributed $0.7 million to LVP Metairie JV. The TownePlace Suites Hotel, which has immediate access to the New Orleans Airport, operates as a “TownePlace Suites” pursuant to a Relicensing Franchise Agreement (the “Franchise Agreement”) with Marriott International, Inc. (“Marriott”).

The aggregate purchase price for the TownePlace Suites Hotel was approximately $12.2 million, inclusive of closing and other transaction-related costs. Additionally, in connection with the acquisition, the Company’s advisor received an acquisition fee of $0.1 million which was equal to 0.95% of the Company’s proportionate share of the total contract price of $12.0 million, or $11.4 million. The Company’s share of the acquisition was funded with cash proceeds from the sale of shares of its common stock.

The Company has established a taxable REIT subsidiary, LVP Metairie Holding Corp. (“LVP Metairie Holding”), which has entered into an operating lease agreement for the TownePlace Suites Hotel. LVP Metairie Holding has also entered into management agreement (the “TownePlace Suites Management Agreement”) with Trans Inns Management, Inc., an unrelated third party, for the management of the TownePlace Suites Hotel, and the Franchise Agreement with Marriott.  The Towne Place Suites Management Agreement, which had an initial term of one-year commencing on January 19, 2011, provides for (i) monthly base management fees equal to 3% of gross revenues, as defined and (ii) certain incentive fees.  The TownePlace Suites Management Agreement, which was extended for an additional one-year commencing on January 19, 2012, now provides for eight additional one-year extensions and may be terminated by either party with no less than 90-days written notice, by either party, in advance of the anniversary date.

The Company’s interest in LVP Metairie JV is a managing interest. Generally, quarterly distributions from LVP Metairie JV are made (i) initially, to the Company and TPS Metairie, LLC on a pro rata basis in proportion to each member’s equity interest percentage until an annualized preferred return of 12.0% is achieved on their invested capital and (ii) thereafter, 85.0% to the Company and TPS Metairie, LLC pro rata in accordance with their respective ownership interest and 15.0% to the Sherman Family Trust, a third party related to TPS Metairie, LLC but not related to the Company. Beginning on January 19, 2011, the Company has consolidated the operating results and financial condition of TownePlace Suites and accounted for the ownership interest of TPS Metairie, LLC and any allocations of earnings and distributions to the Sherman Family Trust as noncontrolling interests.

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share/unit data and where indicated in millions) (Unaudited)

During the year ended December 31, 2011, LVP Metairie JV made total distributions of approximately $784 ($745 and $39 to the Company and TPS Metairie, LLC, respectively), all of which related to the annualized preferred return. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, LVP Metairie JV made total distributions of approximately $5,816 ($5,525 and $291 to the Company and TPS Metairie, LLC, respectively).

The 2012 distributions include the net proceeds from a $6.0 million mortgage loan (see Note 10 for additional information).

The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting with the LVP Metairie JV treated as the acquiring entity. Accordingly, the consideration paid by the LVP Metairie JV to complete the acquisition has been allocated to the assets acquired based upon their fair values as of the date of the acquisition. There was no contingent consideration related to this acquisition.

Approximately $1.8 million was allocated to land, $9.9 million was allocated to building and improvements and $0.8 million was allocated to furniture and fixtures.

9. Selling Commissions, Dealer Manager Fees and Other Offering Costs

Selling commissions and dealer manager fees are paid to the Dealer Manager, pursuant to various agreements, and other third-party offering expenses such as registration fees, due diligence fees, marketing costs, and professional fees are accounted for as a reduction against additional paid-in capital (“APIC”) as costs are incurred. Any organizational costs are accounted for as general and administrative costs. The following table represents the selling commissions and dealer manager and other offering costs for the periods indicated:

	For the Three Months Ended June 30,				For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Selling commissions and dealer manager fees	$	217	$	298	$	510	$	474

Since the Company’s inception through June 30, 2012, it has incurred approximately $5.1million in selling commissions and dealer manager fees and $5.0 million of other offering costs in connection with the public offering of shares of its common stock.

10. Mortgage Payable

On March 14, 2012, the LVP Metairie JV obtained a mortgage (the ‘‘Mortgage’’) in the principal amount of $6.0 million from the Bank of the Ozarks. The Mortgage has an initial term of 3 years, bears interest at a floating rate of Libor plus 3.75%, subject to a 6.00% floor, and requires monthly principal and interest payments through its stated maturity. The monthly principal payment resets each month based on the outstanding principal balance and the current interest rate pursuant to a 25-year amortization schedule less the number of payments made.

In connection with the financing, the LVP Metairie JV paid loan fees and expenses totaling approximately $0.2 million, which are being amortized into interest expense in accordance with the effective interest method over the initial term of the Mortgage. Subject to certain conditions, the Mortgage provides for two, one-year extension periods, at the borrowers option, that require the payment of an extension fee of 0.25% of the then outstanding principal balance. The Mortgage is secured by the TownePlace Suites Hotel and the Company has provided a guaranty to the lender for non-recourse carve-outs.

The following table, based on the initial term of the Mortgage, sets forth the estimated contractual principal maturities, including a balloon payment at maturity in the amount of $5.7 million, as of June 30, 2012:

Remainder of 2012		2013		2014		2015		Total
$	52	$	109	$	116	$	5,700	$	5,977

Libor as of June 30, 2012 was 0.25%. As of June 30, 2012, the estimated fair value of the Mortgage approximated its carrying value.

11. Earnings per Share

The Company had no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the periods presented. Accordingly, earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income/(loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period.

12. Related Party Transactions

In addition to certain related party payments made to the Dealer Manager (see Note 9 for additional information), the Company also has agreements with the Advisor and Lightstone Value Plus REIT Management LLC (the “Property Manager”) to pay certain fees in exchange for services performed by these entities and other affiliated entities. The Company’s ability to secure financing and subsequent real estate operations are dependent upon its Advisor, Property Manager and their affiliates to perform such services as provided in these agreements.

As of both June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $0.1 million was due to the Company’s Sponsor for unpaid asset management fees. As of June 30, 2012, the Company owns a 45.1% membership interest in Brownmill and a 10.0% interest in the Rego Park Joint Venture. Affiliates of the Company’s Sponsor are the majority owners and managers of these entities. Additionally, as of June 30, 2012 the Company has a $2.3 million remaining outstanding balance on the Lightstone REIT I Note it received in connection with the sale of its 20.0% joint venture ownership interest in the CP Boston Joint Venture, effective January 1, 2012. See Note 3 for additional information.

13. Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted escrows, accounts receivable (included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet), note receivable from affiliate, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and the margin loan approximated their fair values as of June 30, 2012 because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying amount of the mortgage loan receivable approximated its fair value as of June 30, 2012 based upon current market information that would have been used by a market participant to estimate the fair value of such loan.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

From time to time in the ordinary course of business, the Company may become subject to legal proceedings, claims or disputes.

On July 13, 2011, JF Capital Advisors, filed a lawsuit against The Lightstone Group, LLC, the Company, and Lightstone Value Plus Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. in the Supreme Court of the State of New York seeking payment for services alleged to have been rendered, and to be rendered prospectively, under theories of unjust enrichment and breach of contract. The plaintiff had a limited business arrangement with The Lightstone Group, LLC; that arrangement has been terminated. We filed a motion to dismiss the action and, on January 31, 2012, the Supreme Court dismissed the complaint in its entirety, but granted the plaintiff leave to replead two limited causes of action. 

The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on May 18, 2012, bringing limited claims under theories of unjust enrichment and quantum meruit. We continue to believe these claims to be without merit and will defend the case vigorously, and anticipate filing another motion to dismiss shortly.

While any proceeding or litigation has an element of uncertainty, management currently believes that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome with respect to the aforementioned legal proceeding is remote. No provision for loss has been recorded in connection therewith.

As of the date hereof, the Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings of which the outcome is probable or reasonably possible to have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial condition, which would require accrual or disclosure of the contingency and possible range of loss.

On July 13, 2012, the Company, through LVP SHS Peabody Holdings, LLC  (“LVP SHS”), a subsidiary of its Operating Partnership, entered into an Assignment and Assumption of Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Assignment”) with Lightstone Acquisitions V LLC (the “Assignor”), a related-party.  Under the terms of the Assignment, LVP SHS was assigned to the rights and assumed the obligations of the Assignor with respects to certain Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated March 12, 2012, made between the Assignor as the Purchaser and Springhill Peabody HH LLC as the Seller, as amended, whereby the Assignor contracted to purchase a 164-suite limited service hotel located in Peabody, Massachusetts which operates as a SpringHill Suites by Marriott (the “SpringHill Suites Hotel”) pursuant to an existing management agreement with Marriott.

On July 13, 2012, the Company, through LVP SHS, completed the acquisition of the SpringHill Suites Hotel from the Seller, an unrelated third party.  In connection with the acquisition, LVP SHS assumed the existing management agreement with Marriott and simultaneously gave the requisite 30-day notice for early termination, which required the payment of a termination fee (the “Termination Fee”) of approximately $1.2 million to Marriott on August 10, 2012. Additionally, LVP SHS entered into a 20-year franchise agreement (the “SHS Franchise Agreement”) with Marriott, pursuant to which the SpringHill Suites Hotel continued to operate as a “Spring Hill Suites by Marriot”, commencing on August 11, 2012. The SHS Franchise Agreement requires the completion of certain improvements to the SpringHill Suites Hotel at an estimated cost of $2.3 million pursuant to a property improvement plan (the “PIP”) no later than August 10, 2013.

The aggregate cost for the SpringHill Suites Hotel was approximately $10.1 million, including the Termination Fee, approximately $0.8 million for a furniture, fixtures and equipment reserve (the “FFE Reserve”) which was held in escrow by Marriott and closing and other transaction-related costs.  Additionally, in connection with the acquisition, the Company’s advisor received an acquisition fee equal to 0.95% of the contractual purchase price of $8.9 million, or approximately $85.  The acquisition was funded with cash and proceeds from a $5.2 million mortgage (the “SHS Mortgage”) obtained by LVP SHS from the Bank of the Ozarks. The FFE Reserve was released from escrow by Marriott upon termination of the existing management agreement.

The SHS Mortgage has an initial term of 3 years, bears interest at a floating rate of Libor plus 3.75%, subject to a 5.75% floor, and requires monthly principal and interest payments through its stated maturity. The monthly principal payment resets each month based on the outstanding principal balance and the current interest rate pursuant to a 25-year amortization schedule less the number of payments made.

In connection with the financing, LVP SHS paid loan fees and expenses totaling approximately $56 and approximately $2.3 million of the loan proceeds were placed in an escrow to fund the PIP. Subject to certain conditions, the SHS Mortgage provides for two, one-year extension periods, at the borrowers option, that require the payment of an extension fee of 0.25% of the then outstanding principal balance. The SHS Mortgage is secured by the SpringHill Suites Hotel and the Company (i) provided a guaranty to the lender for non-recourse carve-outs and (ii) a full recourse guaranty which was reduced to 50% of the SHS Mortgage balance commencing when the SHS Franchise Agreement became effective.

The Company has established a taxable subsidiary, LVP SHS Holding Corp (“LVP SHS TRS”), which has entered into an operating lease agreement for the SpringHill Suites Hotel.  LVP SHS TRS has also entered into management agreement with SSH Peabody, LLC, an unrelated third party, for the management of the SpringHill Suites Hotel which commenced on August 11, 2012.

The capitalization rate for the SHS Hotel as of the closing of the acquisition was approximately 10.5%. We calculate the capitalization rate for a real property by dividing net operating income of the property by the purchase price of the property, excluding costs. For purposes of this calculation, net operating income is determined using the projected or budgeted net operating income based upon then-current projections. Additionally, net operating income is all gross revenues from the property less all operating expenses, including property taxes and management fees but excluding depreciation.

 Overview

Lightstone Value Plus Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. (the “Lightstone REIT II”) and Lightstone Value Plus REIT II, LP, (the “Operating Partnership”) and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the ‘‘Company’’ and the use of ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘our,’’ ‘‘us’’ or similar pronouns refers to the Lightstone REIT II, its Operating Partnership or the Company as required by the context in which such pronoun is used.

Lightstone REIT II intends to continue to acquire and operate commercial, residential and hospitality properties, principally in North America. Principally through the Operating Partnership, our future acquisitions may include both portfolios and individual properties. We expect that our commercial holdings will consist of retail (primarily multi-tenanted shopping centers), lodging, industrial and office properties and that our residential properties located either in or near major metropolitan areas.

Capital required for the future purchases of real estate and/or real estate related investments is expected to be obtained from public offerings of shares of our common stock and from any indebtedness that we may incur either in connection with the acquisition of any real estate and real estate related investments or thereafter. We are dependent upon the net proceeds from public offerings of our common stock to conduct our proposed activities.

The Company’s registration statement on Form S-11, pursuant to which it offered to sell a maximum of 51,000,000 shares of its common stock (exclusive of 6,500,000 shares which were available pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”), and 255,000 shares which were reserved for issuance under its Employee and Director Incentive Restricted Share Plan), at a price of $10.00 per share (subject to certain volume discounts), was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933 on February 17, 2009, and on April 24, 2009 the Company commenced its initial public offering of common stock (the “Offering”). The Offering will terminate no later than August 15, 2012.

The Company has filed a registration statement on Form S-11 (the “Follow-On Offering”), pursuant to which it is offering to sell a maximum of 30,000,000 shares of its common stock (exclusive of 6,500,000 shares available pursuant to its DRIP) and 255,000 shares reserved for issuance under the its Employee and Director Incentive Restricted Share Plan), at a price of $10.00 per share (subject to certain volume discounts). As of the date of this filling, the Follow-On Offering has not been declared effective by SEC under the Securities Act of 1933.

We do not have employees. We entered into an advisory agreement, dated February 17, 2009, with Lightstone Value Plus REIT II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which we refer to as the “Advisor,” pursuant to which the Advisor supervises and manages our day-to-day operations and selects our real estate and real estate related investments, subject to oversight by our board of directors. We pay the Advisor fees for services related to the investment and management of our assets, and we will reimburse the Advisor for certain expenses incurred on our behalf.

Current Environment

Our operating results as well as our investment opportunities are impacted by the health of the North American economies.  Our business and financial performance may be adversely affected by current and future economic conditions, such as availability of credit, financial markets volatility, and recession.

U.S. and global credit and equity markets have undergone significant volatility and disruption over the last several years, making it difficult for many businesses to obtain financing on acceptable terms or at all.  As a result of this disruption, in general there has been an increase in costs associated with borrowings and refinancing as well as limited availability of funds for borrowings and refinancing. If these conditions continue or worsen, our cost of borrowings may increase and it may be more difficult to finance investment opportunities in the short term.   

We are not aware of any other material trends or uncertainties, favorable or unfavorable, other than national economic conditions affecting real estate generally, that may be reasonably anticipated to have a material impact on either capital resources or the revenues or income to be derived from the acquisition and operation of real estate and real estate related investments, other than those referred to in this Form 10-Q.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There were no material changes during the six months ended June 30, 2012 to our critical accounting policies as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Results of Operations

The Company’s primary financial measure for evaluating its properties is net operating income (“NOI”). NOI represents revenues less property operating expenses, real estate taxes and general and administrative expenses. The Company believes that NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real estate company because it is a direct measure of the actual operating results of the Company’s properties.

For the periods presented, the Company’s only consolidated operating property was the TownePlace Suites Hotel, which was acquired on January 19, 2011.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview:

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, our primary sources of funds were $4.1 million of net proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock under our Offering and $5.8 million of net mortgage financing proceeds related to our TownePlace Suites Hotel. We are dependent upon future net proceeds expected to be received from our public offerings to conduct our proposed activities. The capital required to purchase real estate investments is expected to be obtained from our public offerings and from any indebtedness that we may incur in either in connection with the acquisition or the operations of any real estate investments thereafter.

We have and intend to continue to utilize leverage either in connection with acquiring our properties or subsequent to their acquisition. The number of different properties we will acquire will be affected by numerous factors, including, the amount of funds available to us. When interest rates on mortgage loans are high or financing is otherwise unavailable on terms that are satisfactory to us or within a timeframe that is acceptable to us, we may purchase certain properties for cash with the intention of obtaining a mortgage loan at a later time.

Our future sources of funds will primarily be (i) the net proceeds from our public offerings, (ii) our operating cash flows, (iii) the repayment of the note receivable from affiliate and (iv) our borrowings. We currently believe that these resources will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements for the foreseeable future, and we do not anticipate a need to raise funds from other than these sources within the next twelve months.

We currently have a mortgage payable of $6.0 million on our TownePlace Suites Hotel and a margin loan of $3.0 million. We have and intend to continue to limit our aggregate long-term permanent borrowings to 75% of the aggregate fair market value of all properties unless any excess borrowing is approved by a majority of our independent directors and is disclosed to our stockholders. Market conditions will dictate the overall leverage limit; as such our aggregate long-term permanent borrowings may be less than 75% of aggregate fair market value of all properties. We may also incur short-term indebtedness, having a maturity of two years or less.

Our charter provides that the aggregate amount of borrowing, both secured and unsecured, may not exceed 300% of net assets in the absence of a satisfactory showing that a higher level is appropriate, the approval of our Board of Directors and disclosure to stockholders. Net assets means our total assets, other than intangibles, at cost before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves less our total liabilities, calculated at least quarterly on a basis consistently applied. Any excess in borrowing over such 300% of net assets level must be approved by a majority of our independent directors and disclosed to our stockholders in our next quarterly report to stockholders, along with justification for such excess. Market conditions will dictate the overall leverage limit; as such our aggregate borrowings may be less than 300% of net assets. As of June 30, 2012, our total borrowings aggregated $9.0 million which represented 23% of our net assets.

Our future borrowings may consist of single-property mortgages as well as mortgages cross-collateralized by a pool of properties. Such mortgages may be put in place either at the time we acquire a property or subsequent to our purchasing a property for cash. In addition, we may acquire properties that are subject to existing indebtedness where we choose to assume the existing mortgages. Generally, though not exclusively, we intend to seek to encumber our properties with debt, which will be on a non-recourse basis. This means that a lender’s rights on default will generally be limited to foreclosing on the property. However, we may, at our discretion, secure recourse financing or provide a guarantee to lenders if we believe this may result in more favorable terms. When we give a guaranty for a property owning entity, we will be responsible to the lender for the satisfaction of the indebtedness if it is not paid by the property owning entity.

 In general the types of future financing executed by us to a large extent will be dictated by the nature of the investment and current market conditions. For long-term real estate investments, it is our intent to finance future acquisitions using long-term fixed rate debt. However there may certain types of investments and market circumstances which may result in variable rate debt being the more appropriate choice of financing.  To the extent floating rate debt is used to finance the purchase of real estate, management will evaluate a number of protections against significant increases in interest rates, including the purchase of interest rate caps instruments. 

We may also obtain lines of credit to be used to acquire properties. If obtained, these lines of credit will be at prevailing market terms and will be repaid from offering proceeds, proceeds from the sale or refinancing of properties, working capital and/or permanent financing. Our Sponsor and/or its affiliates may guarantee our lines of credit although they are not obligated to do so. We may draw upon lines of credit to acquire properties pending our receipt of proceeds from our offerings. We expect that such properties may be purchased by our Sponsor’s affiliates on our behalf, in our name, in order to minimize the imposition of a transfer tax upon a transfer of such properties to us.

26

Additionally, in order to leverage our investments in marketable securities and seek a higher rate of return, we borrowed using a margin loan collateralized by the securities held with the financial institution that provided the margin loan.  This loan is due on demand and will be paid upon the liquidation of securities.

In addition to making investments in accordance with our investment objectives, we expect to use our capital resources to make certain payments to our Advisor, our Dealer Manager, and our Property Manager during the various phases of our organization and operation. During our organizational and offering stage, these payments include payments to our Dealer Manager for selling commissions and the dealer manager fee, and payments to our Advisor for the reimbursement of organizational and offering costs. During the acquisition and development stage, these payments will include asset acquisition fees and asset management fees, and the reimbursement of acquisition related expenses to our Advisor. During the operational stage, we will pay our Property Manager a property management fee and our Advisor an asset management fee. We will also reimburse our Advisor and its affiliates for actual expenses it incurs for administrative and other services provided to us. Additionally, the Operating Partnership may be required to make distributions to Lightstone SLP II LLC, an affiliate of the Advisor.

The following table represents the fees incurred associated with the payments to our Advisor and our Property Manager:

	For the Three Months Ended June 30,				For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Acquisition fees	$	-	$	14	$	-	$	141
Asset management fees		73		64		145		123
Total	$	73	$	78	$	145	$	264

In addition, total selling commissions and dealer manager fees incurred were $217 and $510 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 , respectively, and $298 and $474 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.

Summary of Cash Flows

The following summary discussion of our cash flows is based on the consolidated statements of cash flows and is not meant to be an all-inclusive discussion of the changes in our cash flows for the periods presented below:

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012			2011
Net cash provided by/(used in) operating activities	$	585		$	(376	)
Net cash used in investing activities		(1,168	)		(15,944	)
Net cash provided by financing activities		8,295			3,913
Net change in cash and cash equivalents		7,712			(12,407	)
Cash and cash equivalents, beginning of the period		5,114			18,177
Cash and cash equivalents, end of the period	$	12,826		$	5,770

Our principal sources of cash flow were derived from net offering proceeds received and proceeds from a mortgage financing. In the future, we intend to acquire properties which will provide a relatively consistent stream of cash flow in order to provide us with resources to fund our operating expenses, scheduled debt service and any quarterly distributions authorized by our Board of Directors.

Our principal demands for liquidity currently are acquisition and development activities, scheduled debt service on our mortgage payable and costs associated with our public offerings. The principal sources of funding for our operations are currently the issuance of equity securities. Additionally, we have a demand note receivable received from Lightstone REIT I in connection with the sale of our 20.0% joint venture ownership interest in the CP Boston Joint Venture with an outstanding balance of $2.3 million as of June 30, 2012.

Operating activities

The net cash provided by operating activities of $0.6 million during the 2012 period primarily related to our net income of $1.3 million less a nonrecurring gain on disposition in the amount of $0.7 million related to the disposition of our 20.0% joint venture ownership interest in the CP Boston Join Venture.

27

Investing activities

The net cash used in investing activities of $1.2 million during the 2012 period reflects the placement in escrow of an aggregate of $1.9 million of deposits towards the acquisition of a hotel, which was acquired on July 13, 2012 (see Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information) partially offset by (i) $0.6 million of aggregate cash proceeds received from Lightstone I related to the disposition of our 20.0% joint venture ownership interest in the CP Boston Joint Venture and (ii) $0.1 million of distributions received from our investments in unconsolidated affiliated entities.

Financing activities

The net cash provided by financing activities of $8.3 million during the 2012 period primarily consists of proceeds from the issuance of our common stock of $5.2 million and net mortgage financing proceeds of $5.8 million on our TownePlace Suites Hotel partially offset by the payment of selling commissions, dealer manager fees and other offering costs of $1.1 million, distributions to common stockholders of $0.8 million, distributions to noncontrolling interests of $0.3 million, redemptions and cancellations of shares of common stock of $0.2 million and paydowns on our margin loan of $0.3 million.

We believe that these cash resources will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements for the foreseeable future, and we do not anticipate a need to raise funds from other than these sources within the next twelve months.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan and Share Repurchase Program

Our DRIP provides our stockholders with an opportunity to purchase additional shares of our common stock at a discount by reinvesting distributions. Our share repurchase program may provide our stockholders with limited, interim liquidity by enabling them to sell their shares of common stock back to us, subject to restrictions. We redeemed redemption requests at an average price per share of common stock of $9.00. We fund share redemptions from the cumulative proceeds of the sale of shares of common shares pursuant to our DRIP. Our Board of Directors reserves the right to terminate either program for any reason without cause by providing written notice of termination of the DRIP to all participants or written notice of termination of the share repurchase program to all stockholders.

Contractual Obligations

The following is a summary of our estimated contractual obligations outstanding over the next five years and thereafter as of June 30, 2012.

⁽¹⁾ Our mortgage payable provides for monthly principal payments through its initial term. The monthly principal payment resets each month based on the outstanding principal balance and the current interest rate pursuant to a 25-year amortization schedule less the number of payments made. These amounts represent future estimated principal payments based on the floor interest rate of 6.00%, which was in effect as of June 30, 2012.

⁽²⁾ Our mortgage payable bears interest at Libor plus 3.75%, subject to a floor of 6.00%. These amounts represent estimated future interest payments based on the floor rate of 6.00%, which was in effect as of June 30, 2012.

In addition to the mortgage payable described above, in July 2011, we used a margin loan that is available from a financial institution that holds custody of certain of our marketable securities. The margin loan is collateralized by the marketable securities in our account. The amounts available to us under the margin loan are at the discretion of the financial institution and not limited to the amount of collateral in our account. The amount outstanding under this margin loan was $3.0 million as of June 30, 2012 and is due on demand. The margin loan bears interest at Libor plus 0.85% (1.10% as of June 30, 2012).

Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations

Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc., or NAREIT, an industry trade group, has promulgated a measure known as funds from operations, or FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental performance measure. FFO is not equivalent to net income or loss as determined under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or 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 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 or as 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 indications 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 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 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.

29

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 will use the proceeds raised in our offering to acquire properties, and we intend to begin the process of achieving a liquidity event (i.e., listing of our common stock on a national exchange, a merger or sale of the company or another similar transaction) within seven to ten years after the proceeds from the primary offering are fully invested. Thus, we will not continuously purchase assets and will have a limited life. Due to the above factors and other unique features of publicly registered, non-listed REITs, 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 (that is, 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 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 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 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. While we are responsible for managing interest rate, hedge and foreign exchange risk, we do retain an outside consultant to review all our hedging agreements. Inasmuch as interest rate hedges are not a fundamental part of our operations, we believe it is appropriate to exclude such non-recurring gains and losses in calculating MFFO, as such gains and losses are not reflective of ongoing operations.

Our MFFO calculation complies with the IPA’s Practice Guideline described above. In calculating MFFO, we exclude 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 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. Therefore, 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 as 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 ongoing operations and are therefore typically adjusted for when assessing operating performance. 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 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.

30

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, acquisition costs are funded from the proceeds of our offering 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. Accordingly, comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. Furthermore, FFO and MFFO are 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 our liquidity, or indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. FFO and MFFO should be reviewed in conjunction with other GAAP measurements as an indication of our performance. MFFO has limitations as a performance measure in an offering such as ours where the price of a share of common stock is a stated value and there is no net asset value determination during the offering stage and for a period thereafter. MFFO is 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 measures in evaluating net asset value because impairments are taken into account in determining net asset value but not in determining FFO or MFFO.

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. In the future, the SEC, NAREIT or another regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the non-listed REIT industry and we would have to adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO or MFFO.

The below table illustrates the items deducted in the calculation of FFO and MFFO. Items are presented net of noncontrolling interest portions where applicable.

(1) 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. In evaluating investments in real estate, management differentiates the costs to acquire the investment from the operations derived from the investment. Such information would be comparable only for non-listed REITs that have completed their acquisition activity and have other similar operating characteristics. By excluding expensed acquisition costs, management believes MFFO provides useful supplemental information that is comparable for each type of real estate investment and is consistent with management’s analysis of the investing and operating performance of our properties. Acquisition fees and expenses include payments to our advisor or third parties. Acquisition fees and expenses under GAAP are considered operating expenses and as expenses included in the determination of net income and income from continuing operations, both of which are performance measures under GAAP. Such fees and expenses are paid in cash, and therefore such funds will not be available to distribute to investors. Such fees and expenses negatively impact our operating performance during the period in which properties are being acquired. Therefore, MFFO may not be an accurate indicator of our operating performance, especially during periods in which properties are being acquired. All paid and accrued acquisition fees and expenses 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 properties are generated to cover the purchase price of the property, these fees and expenses and other costs related to the property. Acquisition fees and expenses will not be paid or reimbursed, as applicable, to our advisor even if there are no further proceeds from the sale of shares in our offering, and therefore such fees and expenses would 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.

(2) Under GAAP, certain intangibles are accounted for at cost and reviewed at least annually for impairment, and certain intangibles are assumed to diminish predictably in value over time and amortized, similar to depreciation and amortization of other real estate related assets that are excluded from FFO. However, because real estate values and market lease rates historically rise or fall with market conditions, management believes that by excluding charges relating to amortization of these intangibles, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the performance of the real estate.

(3) Management believes that adjusting for mark-to-market adjustments is appropriate because they are nonrecurring items that may not be reflective of ongoing operations and reflects unrealized impacts on value based only on then current market conditions, although they may be based upon current operational issues related to an individual property or industry or general market conditions. The need to reflect mark-to-market adjustments is a continuous process and is analyzed on a quarterly and/or annual basis in accordance with GAAP.

(4) Management believes that adjusting for fair value adjustments for derivatives provides useful information because such fair value adjustments are based on market fluctuations and may not be directly related or attributable to the company’s operations.

(5) Under GAAP, rental receipts are allocated to periods using various methodologies. This may result in income recognition that is significantly different than underlying contract terms. By adjusting for these items (to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease payments), MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the realized economic impact of lease terms and debt investments, providing insight on the contractual cash flows of such lease terms and debt investments, and aligns results with management’s analysis of operating performance.

Distributions Declared by our Board of Directors and Source of Distributions

The following tables provides a summary of our quarterly distributions declared for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012, respectively and the three months ended June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011, respectively. The amount of distributions paid to our stockholders in the future will be determined by our Board of Directors and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for payment of dividends, our financial condition, capital expenditure requirements and annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. Additionally, our stockholders have the option to elect the receipt of shares in lieu of cash under our DRIP.

Information Regarding Dilution

In connection with the public offering of shares of our common stock, we are providing information about our net tangible book value per share. Our net tangible book value per share is a mechanical calculation using amounts from our consolidated balance sheet, and is calculated as (1) total book value of our assets (2) minus total liabilities, (3) divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding. It assumes that the value of real estate, and real estate related assets and liabilities diminish predictably over time as shown through the depreciation and amortization of real estate investments. Real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. Net tangible book value is used generally as a conservative measure of net worth that we do not believe reflects our estimated fair value per share. It is not intended to reflect the value of our assets upon an orderly liquidation of the Company in accordance with our investment objectives. Our net tangible book value reflects dilution in the value of our common stock from the issue price as a result of (i) operating losses, which reflect accumulated depreciation and amortization of real estate investments, (ii) the funding of distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations, and (iii) fees paid in connection with our public offerings, including commissions, dealer manager fees and other offering costs. As of June 30, 2012, our net tangible book value per share was $7.75. The offering price of primary shares under our offering (ignoring purchase price discounts for certain categories of purchasers) as of June 30, 2012 was $10.00.

Our offering price was not established on an independent basis and bears no relationship to the net value of our assets. Further, even without depreciation in the value of our assets, the other factors described above with respect to the dilution in the value of our common stock are likely to cause our offering price to be higher than the amount you would receive per share if we were to liquidate at this time.

Subsequent Events

See Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information related to subsequent events during the period from July 1, 2012 through the date of this filing. 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. In pursuing our business plan, we expect that the primary market risk to which we will be exposed is interest rate risk.

We may be exposed to the effects of interest rate changes primarily as a result of borrowings used to maintain liquidity and fund the expansion and refinancing of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. Our interest rate risk management objectives will be to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings, prepayment penalties and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs while taking into account variable interest rate risk. To achieve our objectives, we may borrow at fixed rates or variable rates. We may also enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps and caps in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument. We will not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes. As of June 30, 2012, we did not have any derivative agreements outstanding.

As of June 30, 2012, we held marketable securities with a fair value of a $7.1 million, which are available for sale for general investment purposes. We regularly review the market prices of our investments for impairment purposes. As of June 30, 2012, a hypothetical adverse 10.0% movement in market values would result in a hypothetical loss in fair value of approximately $0.7 million.

The following table shows the mortgage payable obligations maturing during the next five years and thereafter as of June 30, 2012:

Contractual Obligations	2012		2,013		2,014		2,015		2,016		Thereafter		Total
Mortgage Payable	$	52	$	109	$	116	$	5,700	$	-	$	-	$	5,977

As of June 30, 2012, our mortgage payable bore interest at a variable rate of Libor plus 3.75%, subject to a floor of 6.00%. Accordingly, the interest expense associated with this instrument is subject to changes in market interest rates. However, based on the Libor rate of 0.25% as of June 30, 2012, a 1% adverse movement (increase in Libor) would have no effect on our annual interest expense.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted escrows, accounts receivable (included in other assets in our consolidated balance sheet), note receivable from affiliate, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and the margin loan approximated their fair values as of June 30, 2012 because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying amount of our mortgage loan receivable approximated its fair value as of June 30, 2012 based upon current market information that would have been used by a market participant to estimate the fair value of such loan. The estimated fair value of our mortgage payable, which we obtained on March 14, 2012, is as follows:

	As of June 30, 2012
	Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value
Mortgage payable	$	5,977	$	5,977

The fair value of our mortgage payable was determined by discounting the future contractual interest and principal payments by a market interest rate.

 In addition to changes in interest rates, the value of our real estate and real estate related investments is subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of tenants, which may affect our ability to refinance debt in the future. As of June 30, 2012, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 We cannot predict the effect of adverse changes in interest rates on our debt and, therefore, our exposure to market risk, nor can we provide any assurance that long-term debt will be available at advantageous pricing. Consequently, future results may differ materially from the estimated adverse changes discussed above.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon, and as of the date of, the evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. There were no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses identified in the evaluation, and therefore, no corrective actions were taken.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION:

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time in the ordinary course of business, the Company may become subject to legal proceedings, claims or disputes.

On July 13, 2011, JF Capital Advisors, filed a lawsuit against The Lightstone Group, LLC, the Company, and Lightstone Value Plus Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. in the Supreme Court of the State of New York seeking payment for services alleged to have been rendered, and to be rendered prospectively, under theories of unjust enrichment and breach of contract. The plaintiff had a limited business arrangement with The Lightstone Group, LLC; that arrangement has been terminated. We filed a motion to dismiss the action and, on January 31, 2012, the Supreme Court dismissed the complaint in its entirety, but granted the plaintiff leave to replead two limited causes of action. 

The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on May 18, 2012, bringing limited claims under theories of unjust enrichment and quantum meruit. We continue to believe these claims to be without merit and will defend the case vigorously, and anticipate filing another motion to dismiss shortly.

While any proceeding or litigation has an element of uncertainty, management currently believes that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome with respect to the aforementioned legal proceeding is remote. No provision for loss has been recorded in connection therewith.

As of the date hereof, the Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings of which the outcome is probable or reasonably possible to have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial condition, which would require accrual or disclosure of the contingency and possible range of loss.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We discuss in our Annual Report on Form 10-K various risks that may materially affect our business. We use this section to update this discussion to reflect material developments since our Form 10-K was filed. For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, there were no such material developments.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

During the period covered by this Form 10-Q, we did not sell any unregistered securities.

Use of Offering Proceeds

On February 17, 2009, our Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-151532), covering a public offering, which we refer to as the “Offering,” of up to 51,000,000 primary share of our common stock for $10.00 per share (exclusive of 6,500,000 shares available pursuant to our DRIP, and 255,000 shares reserved for issuance under our employee and director incentive restricted share plan) was declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933.

As of June 30, 2012, our Advisor owned 20,000 shares which were issued on May 20, 2008, for $10.00 per share. In addition, as of September 30, 2009, we had reached the minimum offering by receiving subscriptions of common shares representing gross offering proceeds of approximately $6.5 million. Through June 30, 2012, cumulative gross offering proceeds of $48.6 million have been released to us. We have invested the proceeds from this sale of our common stock and proceeds from our Advisor in our Operating Partnership, and as a result, held a 99.99% general partnership interest as of June 30, 2012 in our Operating Partnership’s common units.

35

Lightstone SLP II LLC committed to purchase Subordinated Profits Interests at a cost of $100,000 per unit for each $1.0 million in subscriptions up to ten percent of the proceeds from the primary shares under the Offering on a semi-annual basis beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Lightstone SLP II LLC may elect to purchase the Subordinated Profits Interests with either cash or an interest in real property of equivalent value. The proceeds received from the cash sale of the Subordinated Profits Interests, if any, will be used to offset payments made by us from offering proceeds to pay the dealer manager fees and selling commissions and other offering costs.

From our inception through June 30, 2012, the Company’s Sponsor has contributed cash of approximately $0.2 million and elected to contribute equity interests totaling 45.1% in Brownmill, LLC (“Brownmill”) in exchange for 46 Subordinated Profits Interests with an aggregate value of $4.6 million. The Company’s Sponsor may continue to elect to contribute interests in real property in lieu of cash in exchange for Subordinated Profits Interests in order to fulfill its semi-annual commitment. See Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding Brownmill. .

We have and expect to continue to utilize a portion of offering proceeds towards funding dealer manager fees, selling commissions and other offering costs.

Below is a summary of the expenses we have incurred from April 28, 2008 (date of inception) through June 30, 2012 in connection with the issuance and distribution of registered securities.

(Dollars in thousands)
Type of Expense Amount
Underwriting discounts and commissions	$	5,096
Other expenses incurred and paid to non-affiliates		5,024
Total  offering expenses  incurred	$	10,120

As of June 30, 2012, the total costs of raising capital associated with our offerings which we have funded, including fees paid to our Dealer Manager was approximately 21% of total proceeds.

From our inception date through June 30, 2012, we have used the cumulative net offering proceeds received of $38.5 million, after deducting offering expenses incurred of $10.1 million, as follows:

(Dollars in thousands)
Purchase of investment property, net of mortgage financings	$	6,587
Purchase of investments in unconsolidated affiliated entities		3,993
Purchase of mortgage loan receivable, net of collections		7,029

Cash distributions not funded by operations		1,523

Other uses (primarily timing of payables)		(200	)
Total uses	$	38,519

From our inception date through June 30, 2012, we have sold 4.9 million shares under our offering for an aggregate amount of approximately $48.6 million. In addition, we have issued approximately 261,000 shares for an aggregate amount of approximately $2.5 million under our DRIP.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lightstone REIT II and its Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries (over which the Company exercises financial and operating control). As of June 30, 2012, the Lightstone REIT II had a 99.99% general partnership interest in the common units of the Operating Partnership. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and related notes as contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. The unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of management for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Lightstone Value Plus Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. and its Subsidiaries (have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

The unaudited consolidated statements of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any other period.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

New Accounting Pronouncements

On January 1, 2012, the Company adopted changes issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) to the presentation of comprehensive income. These changes give an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements; the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity was eliminated. The items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income were not changed. Additionally, no changes were made to the calculation and presentation of earnings per share. Management elected to present the two-statement option. Other than the change in presentation, the adoption of these changes had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company has determined that all other recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows, or do not apply to its operations.

Lightstone Value Plus Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. (the “Lightstone REIT II”) is a Maryland corporation formed on April 28, 2008, which has qualified as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes since its taxable year ending December 31, 2009. The Lightstone REIT II was formed primarily for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing in and owning commercial and residential real estate properties located principally in North America, as well as other real estate-related securities, such as collateralized debt obligations, commercial mortgage-backed securities and mortgage and mezzanine loans secured, directly or indirectly, by the same types of properties which it may acquire directly.

The Lightstone REIT II is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT, and substantially all of its current and future business is and will be conducted through Lightstone Value Plus REIT II LP (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership formed on April 30, 2008.

The Lightstone REIT II and the Operating Partnership are collectively referred to as the ‘‘Company’’ and the use of ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘our,’’ ‘‘us’’ or similar pronouns refers to the Lightstone REIT II, its Operating Partnership or the Company as required by the context in which such pronoun is used.

The Company’s registration statement on Form S-11, pursuant to which it offered to sell a maximum of 51,000,000 shares of its common stock (exclusive of 6,500,000 shares which were available pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”), and 255,000 shares which were reserved for issuance under its Employee and Director Incentive Restricted Share Plan), at a price of $10.00 per share (subject to certain volume discounts), was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933 on February 17, 2009, and on April 24, 2009 the Company commenced its initial public offering of common stock (the “Offering”). The Offering will terminate no later than August 15, 2012.

The Company has filed a registration statement on Form S-11 (the “Follow-On Offering”), pursuant to which it is offering to sell a maximum of 30,000,000 shares of its common stock (exclusive of 2,500,000 shares available pursuant to its DRIP) and 255,000 shares reserved for issuance under the its Employee and Director Incentive Restricted Share Plan), at a price of $10.00 per share (subject to certain volume discounts). As of the date of this filling, the Follow-On Offering has not been declared effective by SEC under the Securities Act of 1933.

Effective July 8, 2011, ICON Securities Corp. (“ICON Securities”) became the dealer manager (“Dealer Manager”) of the primary shares under the Company’s Offering pursuant to an Assignment and Amendment of Dealer Manager Agreement (the “Assignment and Amendment”). Pursuant to the Assignment and Amendment, ICON Securities was assigned the Dealer Manager Agreement between Lightstone Securities LLC ("Lightstone Securities”) and the Company dated February 17, 2009 and assumed all of Lightstone Securities’ rights and obligations thereunder from and after the effective date of the Assignment and Amendment. Prior to July 8, 2011, Lightstone Securities served as the dealer manager for the primary shares under the Company’s Offering. All further references to the Dealer Manager will be deemed to refer to either Lightstone Securities or ICON Securities during the respective period of time that each was serving in such capacity. As of July 8, 2011, upon the effectiveness of the Assignment and Amendment, the Wholesaling Agreement between the Company, Lightstone Securities LLC and ICON Securities, dated as of November 11, 2010 was terminated.

Our Sponsor and ICON Capital Corp. (“ICON Capital”), an affiliate of ICON Securities, have entered into a joint venture with respect to its management. Pursuant to the joint venture, ICON Capital has been admitted as a member to Lightstone Value Plus REIT II, LLC (the “Advisor”), the advisor to the Company, and Lightstone SLP II LLC, the holder of subordinated profits interests in the Operating Partnership (the “Subordinated Profits Interests”), which is majority owned and controlled by the Sponsor.

As of June 30, 2012, our Advisor owned 20,000 shares which were issued by us on May 20, 2008 for $200, or $10.00 per share. In addition, as of September 30, 2009, the Company had reached the minimum offering under its Offering by receiving subscriptions of its common shares, representing gross offering proceeds of approximately $6.5 million, and effective October 1, 2009 investors were admitted as stockholders and the Operating Partnership commenced operations. Through June 30, 2012, cumulative gross offering proceeds of $48.6 million were released to the Company. The Company invested the proceeds received from the Offering and from the Advisor in the Operating Partnership, and as a result, held a 99.99% general partnership interest at June 30, 2012 in the Operating Partnership’s common units.

The Company’s shares of common stock are not currently listed on a national securities exchange. The Company may seek to list its shares of common stock for trading on a national securities exchange only if a majority of its independent directors believe listing would be in the best interest of its stockholders. The Company does not intend to list its shares at this time. The Company does not anticipate that there would be any market for its shares of common stock until they are listed for trading. In the event the Company does not obtain listing prior to the tenth anniversary of the completion or termination of its Offering, its charter requires that the Board of Directors must either (i) seek stockholder approval of an extension or amendment of this listing deadline; or (ii) seek stockholder approval to adopt a plan of liquidation of the corporation.

Noncontrolling Interests – Partners of Operating Partnership

On May 20, 2008, the Advisor contributed $2 to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 200 limited partner units in the Operating Partnership. The limited partner has the right to convert operating partnership units into cash or, at the option of the Company, an equal number of common shares of the Company, as allowed by the limited partnership agreement.

Lightstone SLP II LLC, which is majority owned and controlled by the Company’s Sponsor committed to purchase Subordinated Profits Interests at a cost of $100,000 per unit for each $1.0 million in subscriptions up to ten percent of the proceeds from the primary shares under the Offering and the Follow-On Offering, which has not yet been declared effective, on a semi-annual basis beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Lightstone SLP II LLC may elect to purchase the Subordinated Profits Interests with either cash or an interest in real property of equivalent value. Any proceeds received from the cash sale of the Subordinated Profits Interests, , will be used to offset payments made by the Company from offering proceeds to pay the dealer manager fees, selling commissions and other offering costs.

From our inception through June 30, 2012, the Company’s Sponsor has contributed cash of approximately $0.2 million and elected to contribute equity interests totaling 45.1% in Brownmill, LLC (“Brownmill”) in exchange for a total of 46.0 Subordinated Profits Interests with an aggregate value of $4.6 million. The Company’s Sponsor may continue to elect to contribute interests in real property in lieu of cash in exchange for Subordinated Profits Interests in order to fulfill its semi-annual commitment. See Note 3 for additional information regarding Brownmill.

Acquisition of a SpringHill Suites Hotel

On July 13, 2012, the Company, through LVP SHS Peabody Holdings, LLC  (“LVP SHS”), a subsidiary of its Operating Partnership, entered into an Assignment and Assumption of Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Assignment”) with Lightstone Acquisitions V LLC (the “Assignor”), a related-party.  Under the terms of the Assignment, LVP SHS was assigned to the rights and assumed the obligations of the Assignor with respects to certain Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated March 12, 2012, made between the Assignor as the Purchaser and Springhill Peabody HH LLC as the Seller, as amended, whereby the Assignor contracted to purchase a 164-suite limited service hotel located in Peabody, Massachusetts which operates as a SpringHill Suites by Marriott (the “SpringHill Suites Hotel”) pursuant to an existing management agreement with Marriott.

On July 13, 2012, the Company, through LVP SHS, completed the acquisition of the SpringHill Suites Hotel from the Seller, an unrelated third party.  In connection with the acquisition, LVP SHS assumed the existing management agreement with Marriott and simultaneously gave the requisite 30-day notice for early termination, which required the payment of a termination fee (the “Termination Fee”) of approximately $1.2 million to Marriott on August 10, 2012. Additionally, LVP SHS entered into a 20-year franchise agreement (the “SHS Franchise Agreement”) with Marriott, pursuant to which the SpringHill Suites Hotel continued to operate as a “Spring Hill Suites by Marriot”, commencing on August 11, 2012. The SHS Franchise Agreement requires the completion of certain improvements to the SpringHill Suites Hotel at an estimated cost of $2.3 million pursuant to a property improvement plan (the “PIP”) no later than August 10, 2013.

The aggregate cost for the SpringHill Suites Hotel was approximately $10.1 million, including the Termination Fee, approximately $0.8 million for a furniture, fixtures and equipment reserve (the “FFE Reserve”) which was held in escrow by Marriott and closing and other transaction-related costs.  Additionally, in connection with the acquisition, the Company’s advisor received an acquisition fee equal to 0.95% of the contractual purchase price of $8.9 million, or approximately $85.  The acquisition was funded with cash and proceeds from a $5.2 million mortgage (the “SHS Mortgage”) obtained by LVP SHS from the Bank of the Ozarks. The FFE Reserve was released from escrow by Marriott upon termination of the existing management agreement.

The SHS Mortgage has an initial term of 3 years, bears interest at a floating rate of Libor plus 3.75%, subject to a 5.75% floor, and requires monthly principal and interest payments through its stated maturity. The monthly principal payment resets each month based on the outstanding principal balance and the current interest rate pursuant to a 25-year amortization schedule less the number of payments made.

In connection with the financing, LVP SHS paid loan fees and expenses totaling approximately $56 and approximately $2.3 million of the loan proceeds were placed in an escrow to fund the PIP. Subject to certain conditions, the SHS Mortgage provides for two, one-year extension periods, at the borrowers option, that require the payment of an extension fee of 0.25% of the then outstanding principal balance. The SHS Mortgage is secured by the SpringHill Suites Hotel and the Company (i) provided a guaranty to the lender for non-recourse carve-outs and (ii) a full recourse guaranty which was reduced to 50% of the SHS Mortgage balance commencing when the SHS Franchise Agreement became effective.

The Company has established a taxable subsidiary, LVP SHS Holding Corp (“LVP SHS TRS”), which has entered into an operating lease agreement for the SpringHill Suites Hotel.  LVP SHS TRS has also entered into management agreement with SSH Peabody, LLC, an unrelated third party, for the management of the SpringHill Suites Hotel which commenced on August 11, 2012.

The capitalization rate for the SHS Hotel as of the closing of the acquisition was approximately 10.5%. We calculate the capitalization rate for a real property by dividing net operating income of the property by the purchase price of the property, excluding costs. For purposes of this calculation, net operating income is determined using the projected or budgeted net operating income based upon then-current projections. Additionally, net operating income is all gross revenues from the property less all operating expenses, including property taxes and management fees but excluding depreciation.

Distribution Payment

On July 13, 2012, the total distribution for the three-month period ending June 30, 2012 of approximately $805 was paid in full using a combination of cash and approximately 39,000 shares of the Company’s common stock issued pursuant to the Company’s DRIP, at a discounted price of $9.50 per share. The distribution was paid from offering proceeds (approximately $233 or 29%), cash flows provided from operations (approximately $200 or 25%) and excess cash proceeds from the issuance of common stock through REIT II's DRIP (approximately $372 or 46%).

Distribution Declaration

On August 10, 2012, the Board of Directors authorized and the Company declared a distribution for the three-month period ending September 30, 2012. The distribution will be calculated based on shareholders of record each day during this three-month period at a rate of $0.00178082191 per day, and will equal a daily amount that, if paid each day for a 365-day period, would equal a 6.5% annualized rate based on a share price of $10.00. The distribution will be paid in cash on October 15, 2012 to shareholders of record as of September 30, 2012. The shareholders have an option to elect the receipt of shares under our DRIP.

Mortgage Payable

10. Mortgage Payable

On March 14, 2012, the LVP Metairie JV obtained a mortgage (the ‘‘Mortgage’’) in the principal amount of $6.0 million from the Bank of the Ozarks. The Mortgage has an initial term of 3 years, bears interest at a floating rate of Libor plus 3.75%, subject to a 6.00% floor, and requires monthly principal and interest payments through its stated maturity. The monthly principal payment resets each month based on the outstanding principal balance and the current interest rate pursuant to a 25-year amortization schedule less the number of payments made.

In connection with the financing, the LVP Metairie JV paid loan fees and expenses totaling approximately $0.2 million, which are being amortized into interest expense in accordance with the effective interest method over the initial term of the Mortgage. Subject to certain conditions, the Mortgage provides for two, one-year extension periods, at the borrowers option, that require the payment of an extension fee of 0.25% of the then outstanding principal balance. The Mortgage is secured by the TownePlace Suites Hotel and the Company has provided a guaranty to the lender for non-recourse carve-outs.

The following table, based on the initial term of the Mortgage, sets forth the estimated contractual principal maturities, including a balloon payment at maturity in the amount of $5.7 million, as of June 30, 2012:

Remainder of 2012		2013		2014		2015		Total
$	52	$	109	$	116	$	5,700	$	5,977

Libor as of June 30, 2012 was 0.25%. As of June 30, 2012, the estimated fair value of the Mortgage approximated its carrying value.

5. Marketable Securities and Fair Value Measurements

Marketable Securities:

The following is a summary of the Company’s available for sale securities as of the dates indicated:

	As of June 30, 2012
	Adjusted Cost		Gross Unrealized Gains		Gross Unrealized Losses			Fair Value
Equity Securities	$	7,915	$	-	$	(800	)	$	7,115

	As of December 31, 2011
	Adjusted Cost		Gross Unrealized Gains		Gross Unrealized Losses			Fair Value
Equity Securities	$	7,915	$	-	$	(2,214	)	$	5,701

Since the Company purchased all of it equity securities in July 2011, all of the equity securities with unrealized losses as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were in a loss position for less than 12 months. The Company has not sold nor otherwise disposed of any of its marketable securities during this period.

Beginning in July 2011, the Company has had access to a margin loan from a financial institution that holds custody of certain of the Company’s marketable securities. The margin loan, which is due on demand, bears interest at Libor plus 0.85% (1.10% as of June 30, 2012) and is collateralized by the marketable securities in the Company’s account. The amounts available to the Company under the margin loan are at the discretion of the financial institution and not limited to the amount of collateral in its account. The amount outstanding under this margin loan was $3.0 million and $3.3 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Interest expense on the margin loan was $9 and $18 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

The Company considers the declines in market value of its investment portfolio to be temporary in nature. When evaluating the investments for other-than-temporary impairment, the Company reviews factors such as the length of time and extent to which fair value has been below cost basis, the financial condition of the issuer and any changes thereto, and the Company’s intent to sell, or whether it is more likely than not it will be required to sell, the investment before recovery of the investment’s amortized cost basis. During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not recognize any impairment charges. As of June 30, 2012, the Company does not consider any of its investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value:

• Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, 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 assets or liabilities.

• Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, all of the Company’s equity securities were classified as Level 1 assets and there were no transfers between the level classifications during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Mortgage Loan Receivable and Restricted Escrow

6. Mortgage Loan Receivable and Restricted Escrow

On June 29, 2010, the Company purchased a fixed-rate of 5.916%, nonrecourse mortgage note (the “Loan”) from Citigroup Global Markets Realty Corp. (“CGMC”), an unrelated third party, for $7.9 million. The Loan was originated by the CGMC in August 2007 with an original principal balance of $18.7 million and is collateralized by a 141-room limited service hotel located in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The hotel is currently operating under a Marriott Franchise Agreement as a Fairfield Inn. The Loan was scheduled to mature in September 2017 under its original term, and has been in default since February 2009.

The Company initially recorded the Loan as a mortgage loan receivable at $7.9 million, net of a discount of $10.8 million, on its consolidated balance sheet. As the Loan is in default, the Company is not amortizing the discount.

The borrower under the loan agreement is required to transfer any excess cash to the Company on a monthly basis. Prior to April 1, 2011, the Company, was applying the excess cash to required funding for taxes and insurance and other escrow related disbursements and any remaining cash was applied to outstanding principal and the excess, if any, was to be recognized as interest income (the cost recovery method of income recognition). On April 1, 2011, the Company determined that it was no longer probable that it would take ownership in the foreseeable future and stopped applying the cost recovery method and instead began to apply the cash receipts method of income recognition, whereby the Company will recognize any excess cash, after the required funding for taxes and insurance and other escrow related disbursements, as interest income until such time as the borrower is current on all amounts owed to the Company for interest and then any remaining cash will be applied to outstanding principal. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 the Company recognized interest income of $189 and $189, respectively, on the mortgage loan receivable. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized interest income of $251 and $251, respectively on the mortgage loan receivable.

Acquisition of a TownePlace Suites Hotel

7. Acquisition of a TownePlace Suites Hotel

On January 19, 2011, the Company, through LVP Metairie JV, LLC (“LVP Metairie JV”), a joint venture subsidiary of its Operating Partnership, completed the acquisition of a 95.0% ownership interest in a four-story, limited service extended-stay hotel located in Harahan, Louisiana (the “TownePlace Suites Hotel”) from Citrus Suites, LLC, an unrelated third party. The remaining 5.0% ownership interest was acquired by TPS Metairie, LLC, an unrelated third party.  During the first quarter of 2011, TPS Metairie, LLC contributed $0.7 million to LVP Metairie JV. The TownePlace Suites Hotel, which has immediate access to the New Orleans Airport, operates as a “TownePlace Suites” pursuant to a Relicensing Franchise Agreement (the “Franchise Agreement”) with Marriott International, Inc. (“Marriott”).

The aggregate purchase price for the TownePlace Suites Hotel was approximately $12.2 million, inclusive of closing and other transaction-related costs. Additionally, in connection with the acquisition, the Company’s advisor received an acquisition fee of $0.1 million which was equal to 0.95% of the Company’s proportionate share of the total contract price of $12.0 million, or $11.4 million. The Company’s share of the acquisition was funded with cash proceeds from the sale of shares of its common stock.

The Company has established a taxable REIT subsidiary, LVP Metairie Holding Corp. (“LVP Metairie Holding”), which has entered into an operating lease agreement for the TownePlace Suites Hotel. LVP Metairie Holding has also entered into management agreement (the “TownePlace Suites Management Agreement”) with Trans Inns Management, Inc., an unrelated third party, for the management of the TownePlace Suites Hotel, and the Franchise Agreement with Marriott.  The Towne Place Suites Management Agreement, which had an initial term of one-year commencing on January 19, 2011, provides for (i) monthly base management fees equal to 3% of gross revenues, as defined and (ii) certain incentive fees.  The TownePlace Suites Management Agreement, which was extended for an additional one-year commencing on January 19, 2012, now provides for eight additional one-year extensions and may be terminated by either party with no less than 90-days written notice, by either party, in advance of the anniversary date.

The Company’s interest in LVP Metairie JV is a managing interest. Generally, quarterly distributions from LVP Metairie JV are made (i) initially, to the Company and TPS Metairie, LLC on a pro rata basis in proportion to each member’s equity interest percentage until an annualized preferred return of 12.0% is achieved on their invested capital and (ii) thereafter, 85.0% to the Company and TPS Metairie, LLC pro rata in accordance with their respective ownership interest and 15.0% to the Sherman Family Trust, a third party related to TPS Metairie, LLC but not related to the Company. Beginning on January 19, 2011, the Company has consolidated the operating results and financial condition of TownePlace Suites and accounted for the ownership interest of TPS Metairie, LLC and any allocations of earnings and distributions to the Sherman Family Trust as noncontrolling interests.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, LVP Metairie JV made total distributions of approximately $784 ($745 and $39 to the Company and TPS Metairie, LLC, respectively), all of which related to the annualized preferred return. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, LVP Metairie JV made total distributions of approximately $5,816 ($5,525 and $291 to the Company and TPS Metairie, LLC, respectively). The 2012 distributions consisted of approximately $1,271 ($1,208 and $63 to the Company and TPS Metairie LLC, respectively) of annualized preferred returns and approximately $4,545 ($4,317 and $228 to the Company and LVP Metairie LLC, respectively) of return of invested capital. The 2012 distributions include the net proceeds from a $6.0 million mortgage loan (see Note 10 for additional information).

The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting with the LVP Metairie JV treated as the acquiring entity. Accordingly, the consideration paid by the LVP Metairie JV to complete the acquisition has been allocated to the assets acquired based upon their fair values as of the date of the acquisition. There was no contingent consideration related to this acquisition.

Approximately $1.8 million was allocated to land, $9.9 million was allocated to building and improvements and $0.8 million was allocated to furniture and fixtures.

The following table provides the amounts of revenue and net income included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations from the TownePlace Suites Hotel since the date of acquisition for the periods indicated:

Legal Proceedings

From time to time in the ordinary course of business, the Company may become subject to legal proceedings, claims or disputes.

On July 13, 2011, JF Capital Advisors, filed a lawsuit against The Lightstone Group, LLC, the Company, and Lightstone Value Plus Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. in the Supreme Court of the State of New York seeking payment for services alleged to have been rendered, and to be rendered prospectively, under theories of unjust enrichment and breach of contract. The plaintiff had a limited business arrangement with The Lightstone Group, LLC; that arrangement has been terminated. We filed a motion to dismiss the action and, on January 31, 2012, the Supreme Court dismissed the complaint in its entirety, but granted the plaintiff leave to replead two limited causes of action. 

The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on May 18, 2012, bringing limited claims under theories of unjust enrichment and quantum meruit. We continue to believe these claims to be without merit and will defend the case vigorously, and anticipate filing another motion to dismiss shortly.

While any proceeding or litigation has an element of uncertainty, management currently believes that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome with respect to the aforementioned legal proceeding is remote. No provision for loss has been recorded in connection therewith.

As of the date hereof, the Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings of which the outcome is probable or reasonably possible to have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial condition, which would require accrual or disclosure of the contingency and possible range of loss.
