Exhibit 10.2

COST REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT

This Cost Reimbursement Agreement (this “Agreement”) dated as of the 8th day of December, 2016 and effective as of January 1, 2017 (the “Effective Date”), is made by and among each of Hines Global REIT II, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), Hines Securities, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Dealer Manager”), Hines Global REIT II Advisors LP, a Texas limited partnership (the “Advisor”), (collectively, the “Issuer Entities”) and American Enterprise Investment Services Inc. (“AEIS”).

WHEREAS, the Issuer Entities and Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc. (“Ameriprise”) have entered into a Selected Dealer Agreement dated December 31, 2014, as amended by the Amendment to Selected Dealer Agreement dated February 27, 2015, Amendment No. 2 to Selected Dealer Agreement dated September 3, 2015, Amendment No. 3 to Selected Dealer Agreement, effective as of April 11, 2016, and Amendment No. 4 to the Selected Dealer Agreement dated as of December 8, 2016 and effective as of January 1, 2017 (the “Selected Dealer Agreement”) that sets forth the understandings and agreements whereby Ameriprise will offer and sell, on a best efforts basis, for the account of the Company, shares (“Shares”) of common stock (the “Common Stock”) of the Company registered pursuant to the Registration Statement and Prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time (the “Offering Documents”); and

WHEREAS, prior to the Effective Date, (i) pursuant to Section 3(d) of the Selected Dealer Agreement (a) the Dealer Manager re-allows to Ameriprise a marketing fee (the “Marketing Fee”) and (b) the Advisor pays or causes to be paid to Ameriprise the amount of any bona fide, itemized, separately invoiced due diligence expenses (the “Due Diligence Expenses”), (ii) pursuant to Section 6(a)(viii) of the Selected Dealer Agreement, the Dealer Manager will pay or cause to be paid, subject to Section 6(d) of the Selected Dealer Agreement, and as mutually agreed upon by the parties to the Selected Dealer Agreement, Ameriprise’s costs of technology associated with the offering, other costs and expenses related to such technology costs, and the facilitation of the marketing of the Shares and the ownership of such Shares by Ameriprise’s customers, including fees to attend Company-sponsored conferences (the “Distribution Expenses”), and (iii) pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Selected Dealer Agreement, the Company may reimburse Ameriprise to the extent that Ameriprise’s compliance with an Ad Hoc Request (as defined in Section 6(b) of the Selected Dealer Agreement) would cause Ameriprise to incur additional material expenses, in which case the Company and Ameriprise will mutually agree as to the payment of such expenses between the parties (the “Ad Hoc Request Expenses” and, collectively with the Marketing Fee, the Due Diligence Expenses, and the Distribution Expenses, the “Cost Reimbursement Compensation”); and

WHEREAS, AEIS, an SEC registered broker-dealer and Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) member (CRD # 26506), is an affiliate of Ameriprise and currently provides clearing and related services solely and exclusively for Ameriprise; and

WHEREAS, the Dealer Manager and AEIS are parties to that certain Alternative Investment Product Networking Services Agreement, dated March 23, 2012 as amended (the “AIP Networking Agreement”), pursuant to which the broker-controlled accounts of Ameriprise’s customers that invest in the Company will be processed and serviced; and

WHEREAS, Ameriprise intends to migrate its cost reimbursement-related operations to AEIS as of the Effective Date, and thereafter AEIS shall provide such services to Ameriprise financial advisors affiliated with Ameriprise.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Issuer Entities and AEIS agree as follows:





1.    Cost Reimbursement Services

As of the Effective Date and continuing thereafter, AEIS will perform, for the benefit of the stockholders of the Company who are clients of Ameriprise, certain broker-dealer services including, but not limited to, distribution, marketing, administration and stockholder servicing support (the “Cost Reimbursement Services”), which were previously performed by Ameriprise under the Selected Dealer Agreement. Cost Reimbursement Services performed by AEIS will further include product due diligence, training and education, and other support-related functions. These Cost Reimbursement Services will be performed at AEIS by associated persons of AEIS.

2.    Payment Amounts

As of the Effective Date and continuing thereafter, in consideration of the Cost Reimbursement Services to be provided by AEIS, (i) the Marketing Fee shall be re-allowed directly to AEIS by the Dealer Manager, (ii) the amount of any Due Diligence Expenses shall be paid by the Advisor directly to or on behalf of AEIS (as directed by AEIS), (iii) the Dealer Manager shall pay or cause to be paid directly to AEIS the amount of any Distribution Expenses incurred by AEIS, subject to Section 3(f) of this Agreement and as mutually agreed upon by the parties to this Agreement, and (iv) the Company shall pay or cause to be paid directly to AEIS the amount of any Ad Hoc Request Expenses incurred by AEIS, subject to Section 3(f) of this Agreement and as mutually agreed upon by the parties to this Agreement. The Issuer Entities and AEIS specifically acknowledge and agree that the payments described in clauses (i), (iii) and (iv) of this Section 2 shall be remitted directly to AEIS, and the payment of Due Diligence Expenses in clause (ii) of this Section 2 shall be remitted directly to or on behalf of AEIS (as directed by AEIS), in each case separate and apart from the Selling Commissions (as defined in the Selected Dealer Agreement) and distribution and stockholder servicing fees (the “Distribution and Stockholder Servicing Fees”) payable to Ameriprise under Section 3(d) of the Selected Dealer Agreement. AEIS acknowledges and agrees that AEIS shall be entitled to receive only the Marketing Fees and other amounts payable to AEIS pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and AEIS shall not be entitled to receive the Selling Commissions and Distribution and Stockholder Servicing Fees payable to Ameriprise pursuant to the Selected Dealer Agreement, which shall continue to be remitted directly to Ameriprise pursuant to the terms of the Selected Dealer Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Issuer Entities acknowledge and agree that such payment of Cost Reimbursement Compensation to AEIS shall not be paid as a ‘pass-through’ to Ameriprise for payment to AEIS.

3.    Payment Process

(a)The Dealer Manager shall re-allow to AEIS out of its dealer manager fee a Marketing Fee of up to 1.5% of the full price of each Class A Share (except for Class A Shares sold pursuant to the DRIP) sold by Ameriprise; provided however, the Dealer Manager will not pay AEIS a Marketing Fee if the aggregate underwriting compensation to be paid to all parties in connection with the Company’s offering made pursuant to the Offering Documents (the “Offering”) exceeds the limitations prescribed by FINRA. The Dealer Manager shall re-allow to AEIS out of its dealer manager fee a Marketing Fee of up to 2.5% of the full price of each Class T Share (except for Class T Shares sold pursuant to the DRIP) sold by Ameriprise; provided however, the Dealer Manager will not pay AEIS a Marketing Fee if the aggregate underwriting compensation to be paid to all parties in connection with the Offering exceeds the limitations prescribed by FINRA.
No payment of the Marketing Fee will be made in respect of subscriptions for Shares (or portions thereof) which are rejected by the Company. The Marketing Fee will be paid via an electronic wire transfer initiated by the Dealer Manager according to the wire instructions set forth immediately below on the second business day following the week in which the dealer manager fee on the applicable Shares sold by Ameriprise is received by the Dealer Manager from the Company. The Marketing Fee will be payable only with respect to transactions lawful in the jurisdictions where they occur. AEIS affirms that the Dealer Manager’s liability for the Cost Reimbursement Compensation and any other amount payable from the Dealer Manager to AEIS is limited solely to the amount of the dealer manager fees received by the Dealer Manager from the Company, and AEIS hereby waives any and all




rights to receive payment of the Marketing Fee and any other amount due to AEIS until such time as the Dealer Manager has received from the Company the dealer manager fees from the sale of Shares by Ameriprise. No Marketing Fees shall be paid to AEIS for purchases made by an investor pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan.

(b)The Advisor shall pay or cause to be paid to or on behalf of AEIS (as directed by AEIS) the amount of any Due Diligence Expenses consistent with the language in the Offering Documents, applicable regulations and FINRA rules. The Advisor shall pay or cause to be paid to or on behalf of AEIS (as directed by AEIS) the amount of any invoice for such Due Diligence Expenses within two weeks of the Advisor’s receipt of such invoice.
(c)The Dealer Manager shall pay or cause to be paid directly to AEIS the amount of any Distribution Expenses incurred by AEIS, subject to Section 3(f) of this Agreement and as mutually agreed upon by the parties to this Agreement. The Dealer Manager shall pay or cause to be paid directly to AEIS the amount of any invoice for such Distribution Expenses within two weeks of the Dealer Manager’s receipt of such invoice.
(d)The Company shall pay or cause to be paid directly to AEIS the amount of any Ad Hoc Request Expenses incurred by AEIS, subject to Section 3(f) of this Agreement and as mutually agreed upon by the parties to this Agreement. The Company shall pay or cause to be paid directly to AEIS the amount of any invoice for such Ad Hoc Request Expenses within two weeks of the Company’s receipt of such invoice.
(e)AEIS will have sole responsibility and AEIS’s records will provide the sole basis (in each instance with the assistance of Ameriprise) for calculating the Marketing Fees payable to AEIS under this Agreement and the amounts of the Due Diligence Expenses, the Distribution Expenses and the Ad Hoc Request Expenses for which AEIS shall provide invoices under this Agreement. However, the Issuer Entities may provide records to assist AEIS in its calculations.
(f)The parties acknowledge and agree that the total compensation paid to Ameriprise and AEIS in connection with the Offering pursuant to the Selected Dealer Agreement and the Cost Reimbursement Agreement shall not exceed the limitations prescribed by FINRA, including the 10% limitation prescribed by FINRA Rule 2310 on compensation of participating broker-dealers, which is calculated with respect to the gross proceeds from sales of Shares by Ameriprise (except for Shares sold pursuant to the DRIP). The Company, the Dealer Manager and AEIS agree to monitor the payment of all fees and expense reimbursements to assure that FINRA limitations are not exceeded. Accordingly, if at any time the Company or the Dealer Manager determines in good faith that any payment to AEIS pursuant to this Cost Reimbursement Agreement and/or any payment to Ameriprise pursuant to the Selected Dealer Agreement could result in a violation of the applicable FINRA regulations, the Company or the Dealer Manager shall promptly notify AEIS, and the Company, the Dealer Manager and AEIS agree to cooperate with each other to implement such measures as they determine are necessary to ensure continued compliance with applicable FINRA regulations. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company or the Dealer Manager determines in good faith that any payment to AEIS pursuant to this Cost Reimbursement Agreement and/or any payment to Ameriprise pursuant to the Selected Dealer Agreement could result in a violation of the applicable FINRA regulations and there is a dispute as to whether Ameriprise or AEIS will return such payment to the Company or the Dealer Manager in order to ensure continued compliance with applicable FINRA regulations, then AEIS agrees that AEIS shall return such payment or payments necessary to ensure continued compliance with applicable FINRA regulations. However, nothing in this Amendment shall relieve AEIS and the Dealer Manager of their obligations to comply with FINRA Rule 2310.
4.    Term and Termination





This Agreement will automatically terminate upon termination of the Selected Dealer Agreement.

5.    Disclosure

The Issuer Entities agree to keep current all disclosures in the Company’s Offering Documents regarding the payment of the Cost Reimbursement Compensation, as may be required by applicable federal and state laws, regulations and rules and the rules of any applicable self-regulatory organization (“SRO”), including but not limited to FINRA.

6.    Representations, Warranties and Covenants

For the avoidance of doubt, subject to AEIS’s execution and delivery to the Company and the Independent Valuation Firm (as defined in Section 2(kk) of the Selected Dealer Agreement) of an access and confidentiality agreement, substantially in the form attached to the Selected Dealer Agreement as Exhibit D, AEIS shall be permitted to share any documents and other information provided to it pursuant to Section 2(kk) of the Selected Dealer Agreement with Ameriprise, and, following the Company’s disclosure of the valuation in the SEC Disclosure Documents (as defined in Section 2(kk) of the Selected Dealer Agreement), and subject to the fair disclosure requirements of Regulation FD and to the provisions of any non-disclosure agreement between AEIS and the Independent Valuation Firm, nothing shall preclude Ameriprise from providing the name of the Independent Valuation Firm and/or a summary of its review to its clients and/or its financial advisors.
(d)On and after the Effective Date, the Issuer Entities shall be required to deliver or cause to be delivered to AEIS any document required to be delivered to Ameriprise under Section 7 of the Selected Dealer Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any document required to be delivered to Ameriprise pursuant to Section 7 of the Selected Dealer Agreement may be dually addressed to Ameriprise and AEIS in order to satisfy the requirements of this Section 6(d).

(a) “Confidential Information” includes, but is not limited to, all proprietary and confidential information of any party to this Agreement, and their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, and licensees, including without limitation all information regarding the business and affairs of such entities, all information regarding such entities’ customers and the customers of their subsidiaries, affiliates, or licensees; the accounts, account numbers, names, addresses, social security numbers or any other personal identifier of such customers; and any information derived therefrom. Confidential Information will not include information which is (i) in or becomes part of the public domain, except when such information is in the public domain due to disclosure by any party that violates the terms of this Agreement, (ii) demonstrably known to any party to this Agreement prior to the date of execution of this Agreement, is permitted to be used without restriction and is not under any confidentiality obligation applicable to the information, (iii) independently developed by a party to this Agreement in the ordinary course of business without reference to or reliance upon any Confidential Information furnished by any party to this Agreement, or (iv) rightfully and lawfully obtained by any party to this Agreement or from any third party other than any party to this Agreement without restriction and without breach of this Agreement.

Each party agrees that if there is a breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section 14, the other parties may have no adequate remedy in money or damages and accordingly shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief and any other appropriate equitable remedies for any such breach without proof of actual injury.
