I hope your summer is off to a great start.

I wanted to follow-up with you from our initial communication below on the proposal to dissolve the Redwood Mortgage Investors VIII, L.P., a California Limited Partnership (RMI VIII), and to approve the proposed plan of dissolution.

We are very appreciative to your client(s) who have voted and are hopeful we can get the remainder to get their votes in as timely as possible in July. We included an insert reminder with the June statements again outlining the three simple ways to vote. It is important that we receive the affirmative vote of a majority of the holders of limited partnership interests outstanding as of the record date to implement the dissolution plan.

Below is a list of your clients that reflects those who have voted (far right). We would appreciate your assistance in discussing and encouraging those who have not voted to cast their vote.
