Item 8.01. Other Events
Changes to Share Redemption Programs
Griffin Capital Essential Asset REIT II, Inc. (the "Registrant") currently operates two share redemption programs, a share redemption program (the “IPO SRP”) for holders of Class A, Class AA and Class AAA shares (the “IPO Shares”) and a share redemption program (the “New SRP”) for holders of Class T, Class S, Class D and Class I shares, whereby stockholders holding such shares may redeem their shares under the respective programs subject to certain limitations and conditions.
On June 4, 2018, the board of directors (the "Board") of the Registrant, including all of the independent directors, approved the termination of the IPO SRP effective as of July 5, 2018. In addition, effective as of such date, the Board amended and restated the New SRP in order to allow stockholders of the IPO Shares to utilize the New SRP. Accordingly, beginning in July 2018, stockholders of IPO Shares will be able to continue to redeem at 100% of the net asset value of the applicable share class, subject to the other limitations and conditions of the amended and restated New SRP.
This Current Report on Form 8-K serves as the 30 days' notice of the termination of the IPO SRP and the amendment and restatement of the New SRP per the terms of these programs. These changes will take effect beginning with third quarter redemption requests which will be processed in October 2018. Redemption requests much be received by 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the second to last business day of the applicable quarter. The foregoing description of the amended and restated New SRP is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the amended and restated New SRP, which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto.
