HINES GLOBAL REIT II, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 and 2016

1.  ORGANIZATION

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial information has been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments and eliminations, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) the financial position of Hines Global REIT II, Inc. as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 have been included.  The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted according to such rules and regulations. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in Hines Global REIT II, Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Hines Global REIT II, Inc. (the “Company”), was formed as a Maryland corporation on July 31, 2013 for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing in and owning commercial real estate properties and other real estate investments. The Company intends to conduct substantially all of its operations through Hines Global REIT II Properties, LP (the “Operating Partnership”). Beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2015, the Company has operated and intends to continue to operate in a manner to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. The business of the Company is managed by Hines Global REIT II Advisors LP (the “Advisor”), an affiliate of Hines Interests Limited Partnership (“Hines”), pursuant to the Advisory Agreement between the Company, the Advisor and the Operating Partnership (defined below).

On August 20, 2014, the Company commenced an offering of up to $2.5 billion of its common stock (the “Offering”) in any combination of Class A shares (“Class A Shares”) and Class T shares (“Class T Shares”) of the Company’s common stock. The Company engaged Hines Securities, Inc. (the “Dealer Manager”), an affiliate of the Advisor, to serve as the dealer manager for the Offering and market its shares. As of May 8, 2017, the Company had received gross offering proceeds of $334.4 million from the sale of 34.3 million shares. See Note 13 — Subsequent Events for additional information regarding an update to the Company’s Offering.

The Company intends to invest the net proceeds from the Offering in a diversified portfolio of quality commercial real estate properties and other real estate investments throughout the United States and internationally. As of March 31, 2017, the Company owned direct investments in seven properties totaling 2.6 million square feet that were 97% leased. See the table in “Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Executive Summary” for additional information regarding each of the properties in which the Company owned an interest as of March 31, 2017.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include the accounts of Hines Global REIT II, Inc. and the Operating Partnership (over which the Company exercises financial and operating control). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Tenant and Other Receivables

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, in addition to the straight-line rent receivable discussed below, tenant and other receivables consisted of a receivable from the Company’s transfer agent related to offering proceeds not yet received of $0.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively. Also, with respect to tenant and other receivables as of March 31, 2017, the Company had a $4.5 million receivable from a third-party related to excess cash funded for the acquisition of the Montrose Student Residences which was subsequently returned to the Company or paid on behalf of the Company in April 2017.

5



Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs consist of direct costs incurred in obtaining debt financing. These costs are presented as a direct reduction from the related debt liability for permanent mortgages and presented as an asset for revolving credit arrangements. In total, deferred financing costs had a carrying value of $1.4 million and $1.0 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. These costs are amortized into interest expense on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the terms of the obligations.

Other assets included the following (in thousands):

As of December 31, 2016, this amount consisted of a $5.0 million earnest money deposit in connection with the acquisition of Rookwood in January 2017. See Note 3 — Investment Property for additional information regarding the acquisition of Rookwood.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease including rent holidays, if any. Straight-line rent receivables were $2.9 million and $2.5 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Straight-line rent receivable consists of the difference between the tenants’ rents calculated on a straight-line basis from the date of acquisition or lease commencement over the remaining terms of the related leases and the tenants’ actual rents due under the lease agreements and is included in tenant and other receivables in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Revenues associated with operating expense recoveries are recognized in the period in which the expenses are incurred based upon the tenant lease provisions. Revenues relating to lease termination fees are recognized on a straight-line basis amortized from the time that a tenant’s right to occupy the leased space is modified through the end of the revised lease term.

Other revenues consist primarily of parking revenue, insurance proceeds, administrative fees, and tenant reimbursements related to utilities, insurance, and other operating expenses. Parking revenue represents amounts generated from contractual and transient parking and is recognized in accordance with contractual terms or as services are rendered. Other revenues relating to tenant reimbursements are recognized in the period that the expense is incurred.

Reclassifications

In connection with recent amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”) regarding the presentation of restricted cash in the statements of cash flows that the Company adopted as of December 31, 2016, the Company reclassified $0.1 million of restricted cash on the statement of cash flows from investing activities to the cash and cash equivalent balances as of March 31, 2016 to be consistent with the presentation of cash and cash equivalent balances as of March 31, 2017.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16 which removes the prohibition in ASC 740 against the immediate recognition of the current and deferred income tax effects of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. The ASU is intended to reduce the complexity of ASC 740 and the diversity in practice related to the tax consequences of certain types of intra-entity asset transfers. ASU 2016-16 will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 31, 2017. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2016-16 beginning January 1, 2018 and expects to record deferred tax assets and related valuation allowances upon adoption related to its subsidiaries in Ireland.

6



In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01 to clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The Company expects that most of its real estate transactions completed after the Company’s adoption of this guidance will be accounted for using the asset acquisition guidance and, accordingly, acquisition expenses related to those acquisitions will be capitalized. The amendments to the Codification will be effective for public entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is permitted with prospective application. The Company expects to adopt ASU 2017-01 beginning January 1, 2018.

3. INVESTMENT PROPERTY

The net purchase price was $193.7 million, exclusive of transaction costs and working capital reserves. Rookwood consists of 590,501 square feet that is, in the aggregate, 96% leased. See Note 4 — Recent Acquisitions of Real Estate for additional information on Rookwood.

In March 2017, the Company acquired the Montrose Student Residences, a Class-A student housing asset located in Dublin, Ireland.

(1)
The Company entered into a 2.0% Euribor interest rate cap agreement at the loan origination date as an economic hedge against the variability of future interest rates on this borrowing.

(2)
On the loan origination date, the Company entered into a 1.25% Euribor interest rate cap agreement for €17.0 million (approximately $18.1 million assuming a rate of $1.07 per EUR as of March 31, 2017) as an economic hedge against the variability of future interest rates on this borrowing.

(3)
Each advance under the credit facility with Hines (the “Hines Credit Facility”) must be repaid within six months, subject to one six-month extension at the option of the Company and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Notwithstanding that each advance under the Hines Credit Facility matures six months after it is made, the Company is required to repay each advance under the Hines Credit Facility with proceeds from its public offering as such proceeds are raised, unless the Company, through the Operating Partnership, enters into a revolving credit facility (the “OP Facility”), at which point the Company may use such proceeds from its public offering to repay the OP Facility, if any, prior to repaying any advances under its credit facility with Hines. The Hines Credit Facility also permits voluntary prepayment of principal and accrued interest.

(4)
The Company assumed notes payable in connection with its acquisition of Rookwood, which were recorded at the estimated fair value as of the date of acquisition. The difference between the fair value at acquisition and the principal outstanding is amortized over the term of the related notes.

Rookwood

In connection with the acquisition of Rookwood, the Company entered into two loan assumption and modification agreements, with Nationwide Life Insurance Company (“Nationwide”), and with CLP-SPF Rookwood Commons, LLC and CLP-SPF Rookwood Pavilion, LLC. Pursuant to the loans, the Company assumed two secured mortgage facilities with a combined original principal amount of $96.0 million.

Interest accrued on the unpaid principal balance of the Rookwood Commons and Rookwood Pavilion secured mortgage facilities is due and payable on the first day of each month commencing in February 2017. The Rookwood Commons and Rookwood Pavilion secured mortgage facilities have fixed interest rates of 3.13% and 2.87%, respectively, and mature on July 1, 2020. Each secured mortgage facility may be prepaid in full, subject to certain conditions, including but not limited to providing 30 days’ advance written notice to Nationwide.

11



Montrose Student Residences

In connection with the acquisition of the Montrose Student Residences, the Company entered into a secured facility agreement (the “Montrose Facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association London Branch, for €22.6 million (approximately $24.4 million assuming a rate of $1.08 per EUR as of the date of the agreement). Commencing on May 1, 2017, interest payments are due and payable each quarter and repayment of principal is due upon the maturity of the Montrose Facility on March 23, 2022. The Montrose Facility has a floating interest rate of EURIBOR plus 1.85% through September 2019. Commencing in October 2019, the Montrose Facility will have a floating interest rate of EURIBOR plus 1.85% or 2%, depending upon certain debt yield metrics. The Montrose Facility may be prepaid in full, or in part, subject to a prepayment fee if it is prepaid during the first two years. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Montrose Facility, the Company entered into a €17.0 million (approximately $18.3 million assuming a rate of $1.08 per EUR as of the date of the agreement) five-year interest rate cap agreement, which effectively caps the EURIBOR interest rate on the Montrose Facility to 1.25%, to limit exposure to interest rate fluctuations.

Hines Credit Facility

For the period from January 2017 through March 2017, the Company made draws of $7.0 million and payments of $31.8 million under the Hines Credit Facility. Additionally, from April 1, 2017 through May 15, 2017, the Company had no additional borrowings and made payments of $16.4 million under the Hines Credit Facility, which resulted in the Company having a $14.8 million outstanding balance under the Hines Credit Facility as of May 15, 2017.

Financial Covenants

The Company’s loan documents for the debt described in the table above contain customary events of default, with corresponding grace periods, including payment defaults, bankruptcy-related defaults, and customary covenants, including limitations on liens and indebtedness and maintenance of certain financial ratios. The Company is not aware of any instances of noncompliance with financial covenants as of March 31, 2017.

Principal Payments on Debt

The Company is required to make the following principal payments on its outstanding notes payable for the period from April 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017, for each of the years ending December 31, 2018 through December 31, 2021 and for the period thereafter (in thousands).

6. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company entered into interest rate cap agreements in connection with the Bishop’s Square Facility and the Montrose Facility. The interest rate cap agreements were entered into as an economic hedge against the variability of future interest rates on its variable interest rate borrowings.  The Company’s interest rate cap contracts have economically limited the interest rate on the loan to which they relate.  The Company has not designated this derivative as a hedge for accounting purposes. The Company has not entered into a master netting arrangement with its third-party counterparty and does not offset on its condensed consolidated balance sheets the fair value amount recorded for its derivative instrument. See Note 9 — Fair Value Measurements for additional information regarding the fair value of the Company’s interest rate contracts.

9.  FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities the Company has the ability to access. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In instances in which the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety has been determined is based on the lowest level input significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company estimated that the fair value of its notes payable, excluding deferred financing costs, which had a book value of $350.7 million, was $347.0 million. As of December 31, 2016, the Company estimated that the fair value of its notes payable, excluding deferred financing costs, which had a book value of $254.8 million, was $251.0 million. Management has utilized available market information such as interest rate and spread assumptions of notes payable with similar terms and remaining maturities, to estimate the amounts required to be disclosed. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its notes payable fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit quality adjustments associated with its fair value of notes payable utilize Level 3 inputs. However, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit quality adjustments on the overall valuations of the fair market value of its notes payable and has determined they are not significant. Other financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, tenant and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, other liabilities, due to affiliates and distributions payable.  The carrying value of these items reasonably approximates their fair value based on their highly-liquid nature and/or short-term maturities. Due to the short-term nature of these instruments, Level 1 inputs are utilized to estimate the fair value of the cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and Level 2 inputs are utilized to estimate the fair value of the remaining financial instruments.

10. REPORTABLE SEGMENTS

As described previously, the Company intends to invest the net proceeds from the Offering in a diversified portfolio of quality commercial real estate properties and other real estate investments throughout the United States and internationally. The Company’s current business consists of owning, operating, acquiring, developing, investing in, and disposing of real estate assets. All of the Company’s consolidated revenues and property operating expenses as of March 31, 2017 are from the Company’s seven consolidated real estate properties owned as of that date. As a result, the Company’s operating segments have been classified into six reportable segments: domestic office investments, domestic multi-family investments, domestic retail investments, domestic other investments, international office investments, and international multi-family investments.

The tables below provide additional information related to each of the Company’s segments (in thousands) and a reconciliation to the Company’s net income (loss), as applicable. “Corporate-Level Accounts” includes amounts incurred by the corporate-level entities which are not allocated to any of the reportable segments.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company may be subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. These matters are generally covered by insurance. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Class I Shares of Common Stock

On April 26, 2017, the Company’s board of directors authorized and approved a reclassification of the Company’s common stock in order to add two additional classes of common shares, Class I shares of common stock of the Company, $0.001 par value per share (the “Class I Shares”) and Class J shares of common stock of the Company, $0.001 par value per share (the “Class J Shares”). The Company amended its charter on April 27, 2017 to effect this reclassification. The Class A Shares, Class T Shares, Class I Shares and Class J Shares have the same voting rights and rights upon liquidation, although distributions are expected to differ due to the distribution and stockholder servicing fees payable with respect to Class T Shares and Class I Shares, which will reduce distributions.

The Company amended its Offering, effective April 28, 2017, such that the Company is offering up to $2.5 billion in shares of its common stock in any combination of Class A Shares, Class T Shares and Class I Shares. The Company is offering the shares for sale to the public at a price of $10.64 per Class A Share, $10.06 per Class T Share and $9.73 per Class I Share and pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plant at the most recently announced NAV of $9.65 per share.

The Company’s board of directors authorized the Company to declare daily distributions for the month of May 2017 for Class A Shares, Class T Shares and Class I Shares in an amount equal to $0.001653699 per share, per day less the distribution and stockholder servicing fees that are payable with respect to Class T Shares and Class I Shares (as calculated on a daily basis).

Amendment to the Share Redemption Program

On April 26, 2017, the Company’s board of directors approved and adopted the amendment of the Share Redemption Program in order to reflect that the program is applicable only to Class A Shares and Class T Shares (the “Amended Share Redemption Program”). The Amended Share Redemption Program will replace the current share redemption program applicable with respect to Class A Shares and Class T Shares, effective as of May 31, 2017. The Amended Share Redemption Program was amended to reflect certain procedural changes. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended Share Redemption Program the deadline to submit or withdraw a redemption request has been changed to 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the second to last business day of the month, rather than five business days before the end of the month and settlements of share redemptions will be made within three business days of the close of business on the last calendar day of each calendar month. In addition, in the event the Company determines to redeem some but not all of the Class A Shares and Class T Shares submitted for redemption in a particular month, the Company will redeem shares on a pro rata basis and the portion of any unfulfilled redemption requests must be resubmitted after the start of the next month. Also, on April 26, 2017, the Company’s board of directors approved an adopted share redemption program applicable only to Class I Shares and Class J Shares.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion should also be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as amended. Such statements include statements concerning future financial performance and distributions, future debt and financing levels, acquisitions and investment objectives, payments to Hines Global REIT II Advisors LP (the “Advisor”), and its affiliates and other plans and objectives of management for future operations or economic performance, or assumptions or forecasts related thereto as well as all other statements that are not historical statements. These statements are only predictions. We caution that forward-looking statements are not guarantees. Actual events or our investments and results of operations could differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “should,” “expect,” “could,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “predict,” “potential” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology.

The forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based on our current expectations, plans, estimates, assumptions and beliefs that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions, the availability of future financing and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. Any of the assumptions underlying forward-looking statements could prove to be inaccurate. To the extent that our assumptions differ from actual results, our ability to meet such forward-looking statements, including our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations, pay distributions to our shareholders and maintain the value of any real estate investments and real estate-related investments in which we may hold an interest in the future, may be significantly hindered.

The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those presented in certain forward-looking statements:
Our current offering is a best efforts offering and as such, the risk that we will not be able to accomplish our business objectives and that the poor performance of a single investment will materially adversely affect our overall investment performance, will increase if only a small number of shares are purchased in the offering;


Whether we will have the opportunity to invest offering and distribution reinvestment plan proceeds to acquire properties or other investments or whether such proceeds will be needed to redeem shares or for other purposes, and if proceeds are available for investment, our ability to make such investments in a timely manner and at appropriate amounts that provide acceptable returns;


Competition for tenants and real estate investment opportunities, including competition with Hines Global REIT, Inc. and other programs sponsored by or affiliated with Hines Interests Limited Partnership (“Hines”);


Our reliance on our Advisor, Hines and affiliates of Hines for our day-to-day operations and the selection of real estate investments, and our Advisor’s ability to attract and retain high-quality personnel who can provide service at a level acceptable to us;


Risks associated with conflicts of interests that result from our relationship with our Advisor and Hines, as well as conflicts of interests certain of our officers and directors face relating to the positions they hold with other entities;


The potential need to fund tenant improvements, lease-up costs or other capital expenditures, as well as increases in property operating expenses and costs of compliance with environmental matters or discovery of previously undetected environmentally hazardous or other undetected adverse conditions at our properties;


The availability and timing of distributions we may pay is uncertain and cannot be assured;



19


Our distributions have been paid using cash flows from financing activities, including proceeds from our public offering, as well as cash from the waiver of fees by our Advisor, and some or all of the distributions we pay in the future may be paid from similar sources or sources such as cash advances by our Advisor, cash resulting from a waiver or deferral of fees, borrowings and/or proceeds from the offering. When we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations, we will have less funds available for the acquisition of properties, and your overall return may be reduced;
 
 
Risks associated with debt and our ability to secure financing;
 
 
Risks associated with adverse changes in general economic or local market conditions, including terrorist attacks and other acts of violence, which may affect the markets in which we and our tenants operate;
 
 
Catastrophic events, such as hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes and terrorist attacks; and our ability to secure adequate insurance at reasonable and appropriate rates;
 
 
The failure of any bank in which we deposit our funds could reduce the amount of cash we have available to pay distributions and make additional investments;
 
 
Changes in governmental, tax, real estate and zoning laws and regulations and the related costs of compliance and increases in our administrative operating expenses, including expenses associated with operating as a public company;
 
 
International investment risks, including the burden of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws and the uncertainty of such laws, the tax treatment of transaction structures, political and economic instability, foreign currency fluctuations, and inflation and governmental measures to curb inflation may adversely affect our operations and our ability to make distributions;
 
 
The lack of liquidity associated with our assets; and
 
 
Our ability to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes.

These risks are more fully discussed in, and all forward-looking statements should be read in light of, all of the risk factors discussed in “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the risk that actual results will differ materially from the expectations expressed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may increase with the passage of time. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the inclusion of such forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the objectives and plans set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be achieved. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by reference to these risks and uncertainties. Each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement, and we do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement.

Executive Summary

Hines Global REIT II, Inc. (“Hines Global II” and, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “we,” “us” or the “Company”) was formed in July 2013 to invest in a diversified portfolio of quality commercial real estate properties and other real estate investments located throughout the United States and internationally. In August 2014, we commenced an offering of up to $2.5 billion of our common stock (the “Offering”) in any combination of Class A shares (“Class A Shares”) and Class T shares (“Class T Shares”) of our common stock. We engaged Hines Securities, Inc. (the “Dealer Manager”), an affiliate of our Advisor, to serve as the dealer manager for the Offering and market our shares. As of May 8, 2017, we have received gross offering proceeds of $334.4 million from the sale of 34.3 million shares. See “— Subsequent Events” for additional information regarding an update to the Offering.

On February 27, 2017, our board of directors determined a new net asset value (“NAV”) per share of our common stock of $9.65, based on the number of shares issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2016, which represents a 6.9% increase over the previously determined NAV per share of $9.03 as of February 29, 2016. The new NAV per share reflects an 8.3% increase in the aggregate appraised value of our real estate investments when compared to the purchase price of our real estate investments excluding closing costs, transaction fees and additional capital investments since acquisition.  This 8.3% net increase resulted from a 10.6% appreciation in the aggregate appraised values of our real estate investments since their purchase, which was offset by 2.3% dilution resulting from the devaluation of the Euro against the U.S dollar.


20


Hines is committed to our success and we have executed different agreements described below between Hines and its affiliates to reduce costs and to ensure our product remains competitive in the marketplace.

We, our Dealer Manager and our Advisor have entered into a Dealer Manager Agreement, pursuant to which our Advisor will pay a portion of the dealer manager fees payable to our Dealer Manager in an amount equal to 1.5% of the gross offering proceeds with respect to Class A Shares and Class T Shares sold in the primary Offering on and after August 2, 2016. In addition, under the Dealer Manager Agreement, the Advisor has agreed to pay all of the dealer manager fees payable to our Dealer Manager with respect to Class I Shares, in an amount equal to up to 1.50% of the gross proceeds of the Class I Shares sold in the primary offering. See “— Subsequent Events” for additional information regarding Class I Shares. Our Advisor will not be reimbursed by us in any way for the payment of such dealer manager fees.

Also, the Advisory Agreement was amended, effective February 29, 2016, to reflect that we will not reimburse our Advisor for the cumulative issuer costs incurred in connection with our organization and public offerings, in excess of 2.5% of gross offering proceeds from our public offerings. As a result, on April 14, 2016, our Advisor reimbursed us for $4.0 million in issuer costs that we had previously reimbursed to our Advisor in excess of this 2.5% cap. From inception through March 31, 2017, we have reimbursed our Advisor $7.3 million in issuer costs out of $12.2 million in issuer costs incurred by our Advisor.

Further, commencing with the quarter ended December 31, 2014, our Advisor agreed to waive the asset management fees for each quarter through December 31, 2016, to the extent that our modified funds from operations (“MFFO”), for a particular quarter, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as applicable, amounts to less than 100% of the aggregate distributions declared to our stockholders for such quarter. Our Advisor also has agreed to waive the asset management fees otherwise payable to it for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 to the extent that our MFFO for such quarter, as reduced to reflect the distribution and stockholder servicing fees payable for such quarter, as disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, amounts to less than 100% of the aggregate distributions declared to our stockholders for that quarter.

As a result of these fee waivers, cash flows from operations that would have been paid to our Advisor for asset management fees may be available to pay distributions to stockholders. These fee waivers are not deferrals and accordingly, any fees that are waived will not be paid to our Advisor in cash at any time in the future.

The table below outlines, with respect to each of the quarters during 2017 and 2016, the asset management fees earned by our Advisor before application of the waivers, the amounts waived pursuant to the asset management fee waivers described above, and the asset management fees that were earned by our Advisor after application of the waivers (in thousands).

On March 31, 2017, we effectively owned a 99.9% interest in the seven properties acquired as of March 31, 2017 through our ownership interest in the Operating Partnership as its sole general partner. Hines Global REIT II Associates Limited Partnership (“HALP II”), an affiliate of Hines, owned the remaining 0.1% interest in the Operating Partnership.

(2)
The net purchase price for Bishop’s Square and the Montrose Student Residences were denominated in Euros and have been translated at an exchange rate based on the rate in effect on the acquisition date.

(3)
The estimated going-in capitalization rate is determined as of the date of acquisition by dividing the projected property revenues in excess of expenses for the first fiscal year by the net purchase price (excluding closing costs and taxes). Property revenues in excess of expenses includes all projected operating revenues (rental income, tenant reimbursements, parking and any other property-related income) less all projected operating expenses (property operating and maintenance expenses, property taxes, insurance and property management fees). The projected property revenues in excess of expenses includes assumptions which may not be indicative of the actual future performance of the property, including the assumption that the tenants will perform under their lease agreements during the 12 months following our acquisition of the properties and assumptions concerning estimates of timing and rental rates related to re-leasing vacant space.

Critical Accounting Policies

Each of our critical accounting policies involves the use of estimates that require management to make assumptions that are subjective in nature. Management relies on its experience, collects historical and current market data, and analyzes these assumptions in order to arrive at what it believes to be reasonable estimates.  In addition, application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgments regarding assumptions as to future uncertainties. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Also, a disclosure of our critical accounting policies is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Unless described below, there have been no significant changes to our policies during 2017.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal demands for funds are to make real estate investments, for the payment of operating expenses and distributions, and for the payment of principal and interest on any indebtedness we incur. Generally, we expect to meet operating cash needs from our cash flows from operating activities, and we expect to fund our investments using proceeds of the Offering and debt proceeds.

We expect that once we have fully invested the proceeds of the Offering and other potential subsequent offerings, our debt financing, including our pro rata share of the debt financing of entities in which we invest, will be in the range of approximately 40% to 60% of the aggregate value of our real estate investments and other assets. Financing for acquisitions and investments may be obtained at the time an asset is acquired or an investment is made or at such later time as determined to be appropriate. In addition, debt financing may be used from time to time for property improvements, lease inducements, tenant improvements and other working capital needs. Additionally, the amount of debt placed on an individual property or related to a particular investment, including our pro rata share of the amount of debt incurred by an individual entity in which

22


we invest, may be less than 40% or more than 60% of the value of such property/investment or the value of the assets owned by such entity, depending on market conditions and other factors. Our aggregate borrowings, secured and unsecured, must be reasonable in relation to our net assets and must be reviewed by our board of directors at least quarterly. As of March 31, 2017, our portfolio was approximately 54% leveraged, based on the most recent appraised values of our real estate investments or net purchase prices for properties acquired subsequent to December 31, 2016.

Notwithstanding the above, depending on market conditions and other factors, we may choose not to place debt on our portfolio or our assets and may choose not to borrow to finance our operations or to acquire properties. Any indebtedness we do incur will likely be subject to continuing covenants, and we will likely be required to make continuing representations and warranties about our company in connection with such debt. Moreover, some or all of our debt may be secured by some or all of our assets. If we default in the payment of interest or principal on any such debt, breach any representation or warranty in connection with any borrowing or violate any covenant in any loan document, our lender may accelerate the maturity of such debt requiring us to immediately repay all outstanding principal. If we are unable to make such payment, our lender could foreclose on our assets that are pledged as collateral to such lender. The lender could also sue us or force us into bankruptcy. Any such event would have a material adverse effect on the value of an investment in our common shares.

The discussions below provide additional details regarding our cash flows.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Our properties generate cash flow in the form of rental revenues, which are used to pay direct leasing costs, property-level operating expenses and interest payments. Property-level operating expenses consist primarily of salaries and wages of property management personnel, utilities, cleaning, insurance, security and building maintenance costs, property management and leasing fees, and property taxes. Additionally, we incur general and administrative expenses, acquisition fees and expenses and asset management fees.

Net cash used in operating activities was $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Our operating cash flows decreased by $1.1 million between these periods, but we paid acquisition fees and acquisition-related expenses totaling $8.4 million and $1.4 million for the years ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, which reduced our operating cash flows for each respective period. Under U.S generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), acquisition fees and acquisition-related expenses are expensed and therefore reduce cash flows from operating activities. However, we fund these expenses with proceeds from the Offering and/or acquisition-related indebtedness. Excluding the effect of these acquisition fees and expenses, our operating cash flows increased between 2016 and 2017, which is primarily due to our acquisitions of additional properties.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were primarily due to the following:

Three months ended March 31, 2017
Payment of $133.9 million related to the acquisition of Rookwood and the Montrose Student Residences.

Three months ended March 31, 2016
Payment of $56.5 million related to the acquisition of the Domain Apartments.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Initial Public Offering

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we raised gross proceeds of $54.4 million and $30.4 million, respectively, from the Offering, excluding proceeds from the distribution reinvestment plan. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2017, we redeemed $0.5 million in shares of common stock pursuant to our redemption program. No shares of our common stock were redeemed pursuant to our share redemption program for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

In addition to the investing activities described previously, we use proceeds from the Offering to make certain payments to our Advisor, our Dealer Manager and Hines and their affiliates during the various phases of our organization and operation.

23


During the organization and offering stage, these include, without limitation, payments to our Dealer Manager for selling commissions, dealer manager fees, distribution and stockholder servicing fees and payments to our Advisor for reimbursement of issuer costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we made payments of $3.5 million and $4.4 million, respectively, for selling commissions, dealer manager fees, distribution and shareholder servicing fees and issuer costs related to the Offering. These selling commissions and dealer manager fees are lower for Class T Shares of our common stock than for Class A Shares. Therefore, the decrease in the payment of these fees and commissions noted above is primarily due to a higher proportion of Class T Shares being sold during the current period and the fact that we amended our Dealer Manager Agreement in July 2016 to reduce the dealer manager fees payable by us on the sale of Class A Shares and Class T Shares. Finally, we also amended our Advisory Agreement, effective February 29, 2016, to cap the amount at which we will reimburse our Advisor for the cumulative issuer costs incurred in connection with our organization and our public offerings to 2.5% of gross proceeds from our public offerings.

Distributions

With the authorization of our board of directors, we declare distributions daily. All distributions were or will be paid in cash or reinvested in shares of our common stock for those participating in our distribution reinvestment plan and have been or will be paid or issued, respectively, on the first business day following the completion of the month to which they relate. Distributions reinvested pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan were or will be reinvested in shares of the same class as the shares on which the distributions are being made. Some or all of the cash distributions may be paid from sources other than cash flows from operations.

The tables below outline the distribution rates declared per share, per day since October 1, 2014 and the annualized distribution rates for each Class A Share and Class T Share.

Class T Shares are subject to an ongoing distribution and stockholder servicing fee payable to the Dealer Manager of 1.0% per annum of the gross offering price per share (or, if we are no longer offering primary shares, the then-current NAV per share, if any has been disclosed). For purposes of calculating the net annualized distribution rate per share, we deduct from the gross annualized distribution rate per share an amount equal to 1.0% of the gross offering price, assuming a constant, per share offering price $9.411. The actual distribution rate for Class T Shares will vary based on the actual per share offering price in effect and the total amount of distribution and stockholder servicing fees payable. The actual net annualized distribution rate per share will be higher or lower than the rates presented depending on the price paid by the stockholder for the shares. We sold shares at varying prices during the periods presented in the table, all of which were lower than the current per share offering price.

24



Distributions paid to stockholders during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were $3.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively, including those reinvested in shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. We have not generated sufficient cash flows from operations to fully fund distributions paid. Therefore some or all of our distributions have been and may continue to be paid from other sources, such as proceeds from our debt financings, proceeds from the Offering, cash advances by our Advisor, cash resulting from a waiver or deferral of fees and/or proceeds from the sale of assets. We have not placed a cap on the amount of our distributions that may be paid from any of these sources. For example, for the three months ended March 31, 2017, we funded 100% of total distributions with cash flows from financing activities, which included offering proceeds. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, we funded 100% of total distributions with cash flows from financing activities, which includes offering proceeds. As described previously, we paid acquisitions fees and acquisition-related expenses totaling $8.4 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Acquisition fees and acquisition-related expenses are expensed and therefore reduce cash flows from operating activities. However, we fund these fees and expenses with proceeds from the Offering and/or acquisition-related indebtedness.

The following table outlines our total distributions declared to stockholders for each of the quarters during 2017 and 2016, including the breakout between the distributions declared in cash and those reinvested pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan (in thousands, except percentages).

Includes distributions declared as of daily record dates for the three months ended March 31, 2017, but excludes $1.5 million of distributions that were declared on March 23, 2017 with respect to daily record dates for each day during the month of April 2017. These April 2017 distributions were paid in cash or reinvested in shares on May 1, 2017.

Commencing with the quarter ended December 31, 2014, our Advisor agreed to waive the asset management fees for each quarter through December 31, 2016, to the extent that our MFFO, for a particular quarter, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as applicable, amounts to less than 100% of the aggregate distributions declared to our stockholders for such quarter. Our Advisor has also agreed to waive the asset management fees otherwise payable to it for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 to the extent that our MFFO for such quarter, as reduced to reflect the distribution and stockholder servicing fees payable for such quarter, as disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, amounts to less than 100% of the aggregate distributions declared to our stockholders for that quarter.

The table below provides additional information regarding our asset management fees and related waivers with respect to each of the quarters during 2017 and 2016 (in thousands). As a result of these fee waivers, cash flows from operations that would have been paid to our Advisor for asset management fees may be available to pay distributions to stockholders. These fee waivers are not deferrals and accordingly, any fees that are waived will not be paid to our Advisor in cash at any time in the future.

Debt Financings

As mentioned previously, our portfolio was approximately 54% leveraged as of March 31, 2017 (based on the most recent appraised values of our real estate investments or net purchase prices for properties acquired subsequent to December 31, 2016) with a weighted average interest rate of 2.54%. Below is additional information regarding our loan activity for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. See Note 5 — Debt Financing for additional information regarding our outstanding debt.

Three months ended March 31, 2017
We assumed $96.0 million in mortgage loans related to the acquisition of Rookwood.
We entered into $24.4 million of permanent mortgage financing related to the acquisition of the Montrose Student Residences and paid $0.2 million to purchase an interest rate cap to effectively cap the Euribor interest rate at 1.25% with a notional amount of €17.0 million (approximately $18.1 million assuming a rate of $1.07 per EUR as of March 31, 2017).
We made payments of $0.4 million in financing costs related to the mortgage loans at Rookwood and the Montrose Student Residences.
We borrowed $7.0 million under the Hines Credit Facility and made payments of $31.8 million on this facility, which resulted in us having a $31.2 million outstanding balance under this facility as of March 31, 2017.

Three months ended March 31, 2016
We entered into $34.3 million of permanent mortgage financing related to the acquisition of the Domain Apartments.
We borrowed $3.0 million under the Hines Credit Facility and made payments of $3.0 million on this facility. No amount remained outstanding under this facility as of March 31, 2016.
We made payments of $0.2 million for financing costs related to our mortgage loan on the Domain Apartments.

Results of Operations

We owned seven properties that were 97% leased as of March 31, 2017 compared to three properties that were 96% leased as of March 31, 2016. As we are currently in the acquisition phase of our life cycle, changes in our results of operations related to our properties are primarily due to the acquisition of properties. Amounts recorded in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 are due to the following:

Total revenues, property operating expenses, real property taxes, property management fees, depreciation and amortization, and interest expense relate to the operation of our seven properties since December 2014.

26



Acquisition-related expenses represent costs related to the acquisition of our real estate investments, including those properties which we may acquire in future periods. These costs vary significantly from one acquisition to the next and generally tend to be higher for our international acquisitions.

We expect to pay monthly asset management fees to our Advisor based on an annual fee equal to 0.75% of (i) the cost of our real estate investments or (ii) with respect to our real estate investments included in our board of directors’ most recent determination of an NAV per share, the most recently determined value of such real estate investments, net of any applicable waivers by our Advisor, as described previously.

We pay our Advisor acquisition fees equal to 2.25% of the purchase price of our real estate investments. Acquisition fees for the three months ended March 31, 2017 were higher than those for the three months ended March 31, 2016 due to an increase in our acquisition activity. We acquired two properties for an aggregate purchase price of $234.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017, as compared to one property for $58.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 primarily consist of legal and accounting fees, costs and expenses associated with our board of directors, transfer agent costs and insurance costs. Certain of these costs are variable and will increase in the future as we continue to raise capital and make additional real estate investments.

Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP financial performance measure defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and is widely recognized by investors and analysts as one measure of operating performance of a real estate company. FFO excludes items such as real estate depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization, as applied in accordance with GAAP, implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time and also assumes that such assets are adequately maintained and renovated as required in order to maintain their value. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions such as occupancy rates, rental rates, inflation, interest rates, the business cycle, unemployment and consumer spending, it is management’s view, and we believe the view of many industry investors and analysts, that the presentation of operating results for real estate companies using historical cost accounting alone is insufficient. In addition, FFO excludes gains and losses from the sale of real estate and impairment charges related to depreciable real estate assets and in-substance real estate equity investments, which we believe provides management and investors with a helpful additional measure of the historical performance of our real estate portfolio, as it allows for comparisons, year to year, that reflect the impact on operations from trends in items such as occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses and interest costs. A property will be evaluated for impairment if events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable (i.e. the carrying amount exceeds the total estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the property). Undiscounted future cash flows are based on anticipated operating performance, including estimated future net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and certain other ancillary cash flows. While impairment charges are excluded from the calculation of FFO as described above, stockholders are cautioned that due to the limited term of our operations, it could be difficult to recover any impairment charges.

In addition to FFO, management uses MFFO, as defined by the Investment Program Association, (the “IPA”), as a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure to evaluate our operating performance. The IPA has recommended the use of MFFO as a supplemental measure for publicly registered, non-listed REITs to enhance the assessment of the operating performance of a non-listed REIT. MFFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under GAAP, and MFFO may not be useful as a measure of the long-term operating performance of our investments or as a comparative measure to other publicly registered, non-listed REITs if we do not continue to operate with a limited life and targeted exit strategy, as currently intended and described herein. MFFO includes funds generated by the operations of our real estate investments and funds used in our corporate-level operations. MFFO is based on FFO, but includes certain additional adjustments which we believe are appropriate. Such items include reversing the effects of straight-line rent revenue recognition, fair value adjustments to derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment and certain other items as described below. Some of these adjustments are necessary to address changes in the accounting and reporting rules under GAAP such as the accounting for acquisition-related expenses from a capitalization/depreciation model to an expensed-as-incurred model that were put into effect in 2009 and other changes to GAAP rules for real estate subsequent to the establishment of NAREIT’s definition of FFO. These changes in the accounting and reporting rules under GAAP affected all industries, and as a result of these changes, acquisition fees and expenses are typically accounted for as operating expenses under GAAP. Management believes these fees and expenses do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. These changes also have prompted

27


a significant increase in the magnitude of non-cash and non-operating items included in FFO, as defined. Such items include amortization of out-of-market lease intangible assets and liabilities and certain tenant incentives.

Other adjustments included in MFFO are necessary to address issues that are common to publicly registered, non-listed REITs. 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 operations. While other start-up entities may also experience significant acquisition activity during their initial years, we believe that non-listed REITs like us 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 offerings to make real estate investments, and intend to begin the process of considering our alternatives for the execution of a Liquidity Event (i.e., a sale of our assets, our sale or merger, a listing of our shares on a national securities exchange, or another similar transaction) five to eight years following the end of the Offering. Thus, as a limited life REIT we will not continuously purchase assets and will have a limited life.

The purchase of properties, and the corresponding expenses associated with that process, including acquisition fees and expenses, is a key operational feature of our business plan to generate operational income and cash flows in order to make distributions to our stockholders. MFFO excludes acquisition fees payable to our Advisor and acquisition expenses. 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 our stockholders. All paid and accrued acquisition fees and expenses with respect to the acquisition of a property negatively impact our operating performance during the period in which the property is acquired and will have negative effects on returns to our stockholders, the potential for future distributions, and future cash flows, unless earnings from operations or net sales proceeds from the disposition of other properties are generated to cover the purchase price of the property, the related acquisition fees and expenses and other costs related to such property. In addition, if we acquire a property after all offering proceeds from the Offering have been invested, there will not be any offering proceeds to pay the corresponding acquisition-related costs. Accordingly, unless our Advisor determines to waive the payment of any then-outstanding acquisition-related costs otherwise payable to our Advisor, such costs will be paid from additional debt, operational earnings or cash flow, net proceeds from the sale of properties, or ancillary cash flows. Therefore, MFFO may not be an accurate indicator of our operating performance, especially during periods in which properties are being acquired. Since MFFO excludes acquisition fees and expenses, MFFO would only be comparable to the operations of non-listed REITs that have completed their acquisition activity and have other similar operating characteristics.

Management uses MFFO to evaluate the financial performance of our investment portfolio, including the impact of potential future investments. In addition, management uses MFFO to evaluate and establish our distribution policy and the sustainability thereof. Further, we believe MFFO is one of several measures that may be useful to investors in evaluating the potential performance of our portfolio following the conclusion of the acquisition phase, as it excludes acquisition fees and expenses, as described herein.

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 (that is, the capacity to continue to be maintained) of operating performance in future operating periods, and in particular, after the offering and acquisition stages are complete and net asset value is disclosed. MFFO is not a useful measure in evaluating net asset value because impairments are taken into account in determining net asset value but not in determining MFFO.

FFO and MFFO 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. In addition, FFO and MFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or income (loss) from continuing operations as an indication of our performance or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities as an indication of our liquidity, but rather should be reviewed in conjunction with these and other GAAP measurements. Further, FFO and MFFO are not intended to be used as liquidity measures indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. Please see the limitations listed below associated with the use of MFFO:

As we are currently in the acquisition phase of our life cycle, acquisition costs and other adjustments that are increases to MFFO are, and may continue to be, a significant use of cash and dilutive to the value of an investment in our shares.

MFFO excludes acquisition fees payable to our Advisor and acquisition expenses. Although these amounts reduce net income, we generally fund such costs with proceeds from the Offering and/or acquisition-related indebtedness and do not consider these fees and expenses in the evaluation of our operating performance and determining MFFO.


28


We use an interest rate cap as an economic hedge against the variability of interest rates on one of our variable interest rate borrowings. Although we expect to hold this instrument to maturity, if we were to settle this instrument currently, it would have an impact on our operating performance. Additionally, this derivative instrument is measured at fair value on a quarterly basis in accordance with GAAP. MFFO excludes gains (losses) related to changes in the estimated value of our derivative instrument because such adjustments may not be reflective of ongoing operations and may reflect unrealized impacts on our operating performance.

We utilize the definition of FFO as set forth by NAREIT and the definition of MFFO as set forth by the IPA. Our FFO and MFFO as presented may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other REITs, if they use different approaches.

Our business is subject to volatility in the real estate markets and general economic conditions, and adverse changes in those conditions could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and MFFO. Accordingly, the predictive nature of MFFO is uncertain and past performance may not be indicative of future results.

Neither the SEC, NAREIT nor any 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 a 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 following section presents our calculation of FFO and MFFO attributable to common stockholders and provides additional information related to our operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 and the period from inception through March 31, 2017 (in thousands, except per share amounts). As we are in the capital raising and acquisition phase of our operations, FFO and MFFO are not useful in comparing operations for the periods presented below. We expect revenues and expenses to increase in future periods as we raise additional offering proceeds and use them to make additional real estate investments.

Notes to the table:

(1)
Represents the depreciation and amortization of real estate assets.  Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, we believe that such depreciation and amortization may be of limited relevance in evaluating current operating performance and, as such, these items are excluded from our determination of FFO.

(2)
Includes income attributable to noncontrolling interests and all adjustments to eliminate the noncontrolling interests’ share of the adjustments to convert our net loss to FFO and MFFO.


29


(3)
Represents components of net income (loss) related to the estimated changes in the values of our interest rate contract derivative. We have excluded this change in value from our evaluation of our operating performance and MFFO because such adjustments may not be reflective of our ongoing performance and may reflect unrealized impacts on our operating performance.

Represents components of net income (loss) primarily resulting from transactions that are denominated in currencies other than our functional currencies. We have excluded these changes in value from our evaluation of our operating performance and MFFO because such adjustments may not be reflective of our ongoing performance and may reflect unrealized impacts on our operating performance.

Includes the following components of revenues and expenses that we do not consider in evaluating our operating performance and determining MFFO for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 and the period from inception through March 31, 2017 (in thousands):

(a)
Represents the adjustments to rental revenue as required by GAAP to recognize minimum lease payments on a straight-line basis over the respective lease terms.  We have excluded these adjustments from our evaluation of our operating performance and in determining MFFO because we believe that the rent that is billable during the current period is a more relevant measure of our operating performance for such period.

(b)
Represents the amortization of lease incentives and out-of-market leases.

(6)
Represents acquisition expenses and acquisition fees paid to our Advisor which are expensed in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We fund such costs with proceeds from the Offering and/or acquisition-related indebtedness, and therefore do not consider these expenses in evaluating our operating performance and determining MFFO.

Set forth below is additional information relating to certain items excluded from the analysis above which may be helpful in assessing our operating results:

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we incurred $0.3 million in distribution and stockholder servicing fees.

In addition, commencing with the quarter ended December 31, 2014, our Advisor agreed to waive the asset management fees for each quarter through December 31, 2016, to the extent that our MFFO, for a particular quarter, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as applicable, amounts to less than 100% of the aggregate distributions declared to our stockholders for such quarter. Our Advisor has also agreed to waive the asset management fees otherwise payable to it for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 to the extent that our MFFO for such quarter, as reduced to reflect the distribution and stockholder servicing fees payable for such quarter, as disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, amounts to less than 100% of the aggregate distributions declared to our stockholders for that quarter.

The table below provides additional information regarding our asset management fees and related waivers with respect to each of the quarters during 2017 and 2016 (in thousands). As a result of these fee waivers, cash flows from operations that would have been paid to our Advisor for asset management fees may be available to pay distributions to stockholders. These fee waivers are not deferrals and accordingly, any fees that are waived will not be paid to our Advisor in cash at any time in the future.

As noted previously, our cash flows from operations have been and may continue to be insufficient to fund distributions to stockholders. We may continue to choose to use proceeds from our debt financings, proceeds from the Offering, cash advances from our Advisor, cash resulting from a waiver or deferral of fees and/or proceeds from the sale of assets to fund distributions to our stockholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we funded 100% of total distributions with cash flows from financing activities, which includes offering proceeds. However, because our MFFO for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, as reduced to reflect the distribution and stockholder servicing fees payable for such quarter, did not amount to less than 100% of the aggregate distributions payable for such quarter, our Advisor did not waive any asset management fees payable to it for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Our Advisor waived $0.4 million in asset management fees payable to it for the three months ended March 31, 2016. We have not placed a cap on the amount of our distributions that may be paid from sources other than cash flows from operations, including proceeds from our debt financings, proceeds from the Offering, cash advances by our Advisor and cash resulting from a waiver or deferral of fees.
From inception through March 31, 2017, we declared $17.0 million of distributions to our stockholders, compared to our total aggregate FFO loss of $0.4 million and our total aggregate net loss of $27.6 million for that period. During the Offering and investment stages, we incur acquisition fees and expenses in connection with our real estate investments, which are recorded reductions to net income (loss) and FFO. From inception through March 31, 2017, we incurred acquisition fees and expenses totaling $20.5 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we declared $3.9 million of distributions to our stockholders compared to our total aggregate FFO loss of $2.0 million. For the three months ended March 2016, we declared $1.8 million of distributions to our stockholders compared to our total aggregate FFO of $0.5 million.

Related Party Transactions and Agreements

We have entered into agreements with our Advisor, Dealer Manager and Hines and its affiliates, whereby we pay certain fees and reimbursements to these entities during the various phases of our organization and operation. During the organization and offering stage, these include payments to our Dealer Manager for selling commissions, the dealer manager fee, distribution and stockholder servicing fees, and payments to our Advisor for reimbursement of issuer costs. During the acquisition and operational stages, these include payments for certain services related to acquisitions, financing and management of our investments and operations provided to us by our Advisor and Hines and its affiliates pursuant to various agreements we have entered into with these entities. See Note 8 — Related Party Transactions in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as Note 8 — Related Party Transactions in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for additional information concerning our related party transactions and agreements.


31


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Subsequent Events

Class I Shares of Common Stock

On April 26, 2017, our board of directors authorized and approved a reclassification of our common stock in order to add two additional classes of common shares, Class I shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Class I Shares”) and Class J shares of our common stock , $0.001 par value per share (the “Class J Shares”). We amended our charter on April 27, 2017 to effect this reclassification. The Class A Shares, Class T Shares, Class I Shares and Class J Shares have the same voting rights and rights upon liquidation, although distributions are expected to differ due to the distribution and stockholder servicing fees payable with respect to Class T Shares and Class I Shares, which will reduce distributions.
    
We amended our Offering, effective April 28, 2017, such that we are offering up to $2.5 billion in shares of our common stock in any combination of Class A Shares, Class T Shares and Class I Shares. We are offering the shares for sale to the public at a price of $10.64 per Class A Share, $10.06 per Class T Share and $9.73 per Class I Share and pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plant at the most recently announced NAV of $9.65 per share.

Our board of directors authorized us to declare daily distributions for the month of May 2017 for Class A Shares, Class T Shares and Class I Shares in an amount equal to $0.001653699 per share, per day less the distribution and stockholder servicing fees that are payable with respect to Class T Shares and Class I Shares (as calculated on a daily basis).

Amendment to the Share Redemption Program

On April 26, 2017, our board of directors approved and adopted the amendment of the Share Redemption Program in order to reflect that the program is applicable only to Class A Shares and Class T Shares (the “Amended Share Redemption Program”). The Amended Share Redemption Program will replace the current share redemption program applicable with respect to Class A Shares and Class T Shares, effective as of May 31, 2017. The Amended Share Redemption Program was amended to reflect certain procedural changes. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended Share Redemption Program the deadline to submit or withdraw a redemption request has been changed to 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the second to last business day of the month, rather than five business days before the end of the month and settlements of share redemptions will be made within three business days of the close of business on the last calendar day of each calendar month. In addition, in the event we determine to redeem some but not all of the Class A Shares and Class T Shares submitted for redemption in a particular month, we will redeem shares on a pro rata basis and the portion of any unfulfilled redemption requests must be resubmitted after the start of the next month. Also, on April 26, 2017, our board of directors approved and adopted a share redemption program applicable only to Class I Shares and Class J Shares.

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 believe that interest rate risk, currency risk and real estate valuation risk are the primary market risks to which we are exposed. As of March 31, 2017, we were exposed to the market risks listed below.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to the effects of interest rate changes primarily as a result of debt used to maintain liquidity and fund expansion of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. As of March 31, 2017, we had $177.6 million of variable-rate debt outstanding. If interest rates were to increase by 1%, we would incur an additional $1.8 million in interest expense. Additionally, we have entered into interest rate caps to limit our exposure to rising interest rates related to our mortgage loans secured by Bishop’s Square and the Montrose Student Residences. See Note 5 — Debt Financing in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information concerning our outstanding debt.


32


Foreign Currency Risk

Our investments in Bishop’s Square and the Montrose Student Residences are subject to the effects of exchange rate movements between the Euro and the U.S. dollar, which may affect future costs and cash flows as well as amounts translated into U.S. dollars for inclusion in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We have entered into mortgage loans denominated in Euros for these investments, which provides a natural hedge with regard to changes in exchange rates between the Euro and U.S. dollar and reduces our exposure to exchange rate differences. Additionally, we are typically a net receiver of Euros, and, as a result, our foreign operations benefit from a weaker U.S. dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar. Based upon our analysis, a 10% immediate, unfavorable change in the exchange rate between the Euro and U.S. dollar would have decreased the net book value of our investment in Bishop’s Square and the Montrose Student Residences by approximately $4.4 million and would have reduced the net income (loss) of Bishop’s Square and the Montrose Student Residences by $63,000.

Other Risks

As described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Advisor has agreed to waive the asset management fee otherwise payable to it pursuant to our Advisory Agreement for each of the quarters in 2014 through 2016 and the first quarter of 2017, to the extent that our MFFO for such quarter, as reduced to reflect the distribution and stockholder servicing fees payable for such quarter, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as applicable, amounts to less than 100% of the aggregate distributions declared for such quarter. There can be no assurances that our Advisor will continue this waiver subsequent to the first quarter of 2017, and if not, cash available to pay distributions in future periods may be reduced.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2017, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Change in Internal Controls

No changes have occurred in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time in the ordinary course of business, we or our subsidiaries may become subject to legal proceedings, claims or disputes. As of May 15, 2017, neither we nor any of our subsidiaries were a party to any material pending legal proceedings.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

We are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, which are discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. With the exception of the risk factors set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.
We offer two share redemption programs for stockholders seeking liquidity of their shares. However, there is no public market for our common shares; therefore, it will be difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares and, if they are able to sell their shares, they will likely sell them at a substantial discount.
There is no public market for our common shares, and we do not expect one to develop. We have a share redemption program, applicable to both Class A Shares and Class T Shares and a share redemption program applicable to Class I Shares and Class J Shares, but each is limited in terms of the amount of shares which may be redeemed. It will therefore be difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares of common stock promptly or at all. Additionally, our charter contains restrictions on the ownership and transfer of our shares, and these restrictions may limit the ability of our stockholders to sell their shares. If our stockholders are able to sell their shares, they may only be able to sell them at a substantial discount from the price they paid. This may be the result, in part, of the fact that the amount of funds available for investment are reduced by funds used to pay certain up-front fees and expenses, including organization and offering costs, such as issuer costs, selling commissions, and the dealer manager fees and acquisition fees and expenses in connection with our public offerings. Unless our aggregate investments increase in value to compensate for these up-front fees and expenses, which may not occur, it is unlikely that our stockholders will be able to sell their shares, without incurring a substantial loss. Our stockholders may also experience substantial losses if we dispose of our assets or in connection with a liquidation event. We cannot assure our stockholders that their shares will ever appreciate in value to equal the price they paid for their shares. Thus, prospective stockholders should consider our common shares as illiquid and a long-term investment, and they must be prepared to hold their shares for an indefinite length of time.
The availability and timing of distributions to our stockholders is uncertain and cannot be assured.
There is no assurance that distributions will continue to be authorized and paid. We cannot assure our stockholders that we will have sufficient cash to pay distributions to our stockholders or that the amount of any such distributions will increase over time. In addition, the distribution and stockholder servicing fees payable with respect to Class T Shares and Class I Shares issued in the primary offering will reduce the amount of funds available for distribution with respect to all Class T Shares and Class I Shares, as applicable (including Class T Shares and Class I Shares issued pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan). Further, because the distribution and stockholder servicing fees payable with respect to Class T Shares are higher than those payable with respect to Class I Shares, distributions with respect to Class T Shares will be lower than distributions with respect to Class I Shares. Should we fail for any reason to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, we would not qualify for the favorable tax treatment accorded to REITs.
The ability of our stockholders to have their shares redeemed is limited under our share redemption programs and may be more limited for holders of Class A Shares and Class T Shares than for holders of Class I Shares and Class J Shares. If our stockholders are able to have their shares redeemed, it may be at a price that is less than the price our stockholders paid for the shares and the then-current market value of the shares.
Each of our share redemption programs contains significant restrictions and limitations. For example, only stockholders who purchase their shares directly from us or who received their shares through a non-cash transaction, not in the secondary market, are eligible to participate, holders of Class A Shares and Class T Shares must generally hold their shares for a minimum of one year before they can participate in our share redemption program and if holders of Class I Shares and Class J Shares do not hold their shares for a minimum of one year, then they will only be eligible for redemption at 95% of the redemption price that would otherwise apply. The terms of our share redemption program applicable to Class I Shares and Class J Shares may provide holders of Class I Shares and Class J Shares with a greater opportunity to have their shares redeemed than holders of

34


Class A Shares and Class T Shares.  The limit on the amount of shares that may be redeemed under our share redemption program applicable to Class I Shares and Class J Shares is higher than the limit on our share redemption program applicable to Class A Shares and Class T Shares.  In addition, the funds available for redemptions under our share redemption program applicable to Class A Shares and Class T Shares are generally limited to funds received from the distribution reinvestment plan in the prior month; whereas unless our board of directors determines otherwise, we intend to fund redemptions pursuant to our share redemption program applicable to Class I Shares and Class J Shares from any available cash sources at our disposal. Our board of directors may terminate, suspend or amend each of the share redemption programs without stockholder approval. As a result of these limitations, the redemption price our stockholders may receive upon any such redemption may not be indicative of the price our stockholders would receive if our shares were actively traded or if we were liquidated, and our stockholders should not assume that they will be able to sell all or any portion of their shares back to us pursuant to our share redemption programs or to third parties at a price that reflects the then current market value of the shares or at all.
The U.S. Department of Labor, or DOL, has adopted certain amendments, including an amendment to the definition of “fiduciary” under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or ERISA, and the Code, which could impact our ability to raise significant additional capital in this offering.
The DOL has adopted certain amendments, including an amendment to the definition of “fiduciary” under ERISA and the Code. The amendments have broadened the definition of “fiduciary” and have changed the prohibited transaction exemptions relating to investments by employee benefit plans subject to Title I of ERISA or retirement plans or accounts subject to Section 4975 of the Code (including individual retirement accounts). The amendments took effect in 2016, with implementation scheduled to commence on April 10, 2017 and continue through January 1, 2018; however, the implementation date has been delayed until June 9, 2017. On February 3, 2017, a Presidential Memorandum was issued directing the DOL to, among other things, examine the regulation to determine whether it may adversely affect the ability of Americans to gain access to market information and financial advice. The outcome of this review by the DOL and the ultimate impact of the final regulation are not yet known, but if the regulation is implemented, it could negatively impact the sale of shares of our common stock to such employee benefit plans and retirement plans and accounts.
The United Kingdom’s determination to exit the European Union could adversely affect market rental rates and commercial real estate values in the United Kingdom and Europe.
On June 23, 2016, the United Kingdom held a non-binding referendum in which a majority of voters voted in favor of the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union. On March 29, 2017, the United Kingdom gave formal notice of its exit from the European Union and commenced the two-year period of negotiations to determine the terms of the United Kingdom’s relationship with the European Union after the exit, including, among other things, the terms of trade between the United Kingdom and the European Union. The effects of the exit will depend on any agreements the United Kingdom makes to retain access to European Union markets either during a transitional period or more permanently. The announcement of the Brexit vote caused significant volatility in global stock markets and currency exchange rate fluctuations that resulted in the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies in which we conduct business. The strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies such as the Euro may adversely affect our results of operations and had an adverse impact on the NAV per share of our common stock determined as of December 31, 2016. In addition, the uncertainty caused by the Brexit vote and the notice of departure may:
adversely affect European and worldwide economic and market conditions;
adversely affect commercial property market rental rates in the United Kingdom and continental Europe;
adversely affect commercial property market values in the United Kingdom and continental Europe;
adversely affect the availability of financing for commercial properties in the United Kingdom and continental Europe, which could reduce the price for which we are able to sell properties we have acquired in such geographic locations; and
create further instability in global financial and foreign exchange markets, including volatility in the value of the sterling and euro.
Each of these effects may occur before the United Kingdom departs from the European Union because the capital and credit markets are subject to volatility and disruption caused by the uncertainty introduced by the Brexit vote. As of March 31, 2017, 26% of our real estate investment portfolio consisted of a property located in Dublin, Ireland (based on the estimated aggregate value of our real estate investments). A decline in economic conditions could negatively impact commercial real estate fundamentals and result in lower occupancy, lower rental rates and declining values in our portfolio, which could, among other things, adversely affect our business and financial condition.

Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we did not sell or issue any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities

On August 20, 2014, the Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-191106) for the Offering was declared effective under the Securities Act. The Offering commenced on August 20, 2014 and is currently expected to terminate on or before August 20, 2017, unless extended by our board of directors.

From August 20, 2014 through March 31, 2017, we received gross proceeds of approximately $180.2 million through the sale of 18.2 million Class A Shares and $134.2 million through the sale of 14.2 million Class T Shares to the public in connection with the Offering. Since August 20, 2014, we have used proceeds from the Offering to pay $20.5 million of selling commissions and dealer manager fees, as well as $7.3 million of issuer costs related to the Offering.  See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Executive Summary” for additional information regarding the amendment to our Advisory Agreement executed in April 2016 and effective February 29, 2016, which has reduced the amount of issuer costs payable to our Advisor as a percentage of gross offering proceeds. As a result of the amendment to our Advisory Agreement, our Advisor reimbursed us for $4.0 million in issuer costs that we had previously reimbursed to our Advisor. See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Executive Summary” for additional information regarding the amendment of the Dealer Manager Agreement, pursuant to which our Advisor will pay a portion of the dealer manager fees payable to the dealer manager, without reimbursement from us. The selling commissions and dealer manager fees were not paid with respect to the shares sold through our distribution reinvestment plan. The selling commissions and dealer manager fees were paid to our dealer manager, which is an affiliate of Hines and is wholly-owned, indirectly, by, or for the benefit of, our Chairman, Jeffrey C. Hines and his father, Gerald D. Hines.

Net proceeds available for investment after the payment of the costs described above were approximately $278.1 million. A portion of these proceeds, along with proceeds from debt financing, were used to make approximately $277.9 million of investments in real estate, including the purchase price of our investments, acquisition fees and expenses, and costs of leveraging each real estate investment. We had approximately $0.2 million in uninvested offering proceeds as of March 31, 2017.

Additionally, we have not generated sufficient cash flow from operations to fully fund distributions paid. From inception through March 31, 2017, a portion of our distributions have been funded with cash flows from financing activities, which includes offering proceeds. See “Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources — Distributions” for a description of the sources that have been used to fund our distributions.

Issuer Redemptions of Equity Securities

All eligible requests for redemptions that were received for the three months ended March 31, 2017 were redeemed using proceeds from our distribution reinvestment plan. See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Subsequent Events” for a description of amendments to our share redemption program, effective May 31, 2017. The following table lists shares we redeemed under our share redemption program during the period covered by this report, including the average price paid per share.

This amount represents the number of shares available for redemption on March 31, 2017. Our share redemption program was first announced at the commencement of our initial public offering in August 2014. Our share redemption program

36


does not have a fixed expiration date, but it is subject to significant restrictions and limitations and our board of directors may terminate, suspend or amend the program without stockholder approval. We may redeem shares on a monthly basis if the shares were held for at least one year and meet certain other conditions. Any such redemptions will be limited to the amount required to redeem 5% of the shares outstanding as of the same date in the prior calendar year, and unless our board of directors determines otherwise, redemptions will be further limited to the amount of proceeds received from our distribution reinvestment plan in the month prior to the month in which the redemption request was received. Per the terms of our share redemption program, we may waive the one-year holding requirement and limitations described above for share redemption requests made in connection with the bankruptcy, death or disability of a stockholder.
