Item 1.02                                             Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 27, 2011, Behringer Harvard Opportunity REIT II, Inc., a Maryland corporation (which may be referred to herein as the “Registrant,” “we,” “our” or “us”), through BH University Towers, LLC (“BH Towers”), a wholly owned subsidiary of our operating partnership, assigned our interest in a purchase agreement originally entered into on December 7, 2011, to acquire a student housing community containing 184-units and 35,840 square feet of ground floor retail space currently known as University Towers located in Austin, Texas from Fairfield 24th Street Towers Ltd., an unaffiliated third party, (the “Purchase and Sales Agreement”), to University Towers Austin LLC, an unaffiliated third party, thereby terminating our interest in the Purchase and Sale Agreement.  The contract purchase price for University Towers was $33 million, excluding closing costs under the Purchase and Sale Agreement.  We provided an earnest money deposit of $0.5 million under the Purchase and Sale Agreement, which we recovered as a result of the assignment of the Purchase and Sale Agreement to University Towers Austin LLC.  There are no termination penalties as a result of the Assignment and Assumption of Agreement.  We assigned our interest in the Purchase and Sale Agreement because we determined that it would not be in our best interest to move forward with the acquisition.
