with Bank of America to $45 Million

SANTA ANA, Calif. (May 5, 2011) – Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II, Inc. today announced that it has modified its existing secured revolving credit facility with Bank of America, National Association. Under terms of the modification, the credit available under the facility expands to $45 million from $25 million. The credit facility may be utilized to fund property acquisitions and for other general corporate purposes.

“The continued support we’re receiving from Bank of America speaks volumes about Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II and the quality of the management team and product we provide to our investors,” said Jeff Hanson, chairman and chief executive officer.

The modified credit facility eliminates a previous all-in interest rate floor of five percent and bears interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 3.50 percent, down from 3.75 percent.

“Since beginning property acquisitions in March 2010, we have built one of the best performing portfolios among non-traded REITs,” said Danny Prosky, president and chief operating officer. “Our expanded credit line with Bank of America will enable more rapid growth and further strengthen the REIT on behalf of our shareowners.”
