Item 8.01.    Other Events

Silver Star Properties REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to update certain information previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 19, 2023.

On June 6, 2023, the SEC’s Fort Worth Regional Office (the “Regional Office”) sent a letter to the Company with a “document hold” request, and on June 21, 2023, a representative of the Regional Office requested that the Company voluntarily provide certain documents and information regarding certain of the Company’s, its affiliates’ and current and former officers’ and directors’ activities and corresponding disclosures (collectively, the “SEC Matter”). The Company has cooperated with the SEC’s Regional Office in connection with the SEC Matter. Following the Company’s response to the June 21, 2023 request, a representative of the Regional Office on August 1, 2023, requested certain additional information regarding, among other things, the Company’s internal review of certain matters pertaining to Allen Hartman and to certain of the Company’s charter provisions, to which the Company responded by August 28, 2023. On November 22, 2023, counsel for the Company spoke with a representative of the Regional Office. During that call, the representative indicated that the Regional Office is continuing to review various matters. As a result of that conversation, and out of an abundance of caution, the Company is proceeding as if the SEC Matter is now an active investigation.

The information provided pursuant to this Item 8.01 is “furnished” and shall not be deemed to be “filed” with the SEC or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in any such filings. The furnishing of such information is not intended to constitute a representation that such furnishing is required by Regulation FD or that such information includes material investor information that is not otherwise publicly available.

Cautionary Statement regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are based on management’s current expectations, assumptions and beliefs. Forward-looking statements can often be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “should” and similar expressions, and variations or negatives of these words. They are not guarantees of future results and forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement, including those described in greater detail in our filings with the SEC, particularly those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Readers should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements and are encouraged to review the Company’s other filings with the SEC for a more complete discussion of risks and other factors that could affect any forward-looking statement. The statements made herein speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K and except as required by law, the Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements.
