Latest Winners of Wells REIT II Sweepstakes Enjoy Boston Travel

Richmond, Texas couple awarded trip for choosing environmentally responsible paperless delivery of stockholder communications

The winners of the most recent Wells Real Estate Investment Trust II Inc. (Wells REIT II) "e-delivery sweepstakes," Ryan and Jennifer Lemothe of Richmond, Texas, have completed their complimentary trip to Boston, Mass. The sweepstakes offered investors who signed up for electronic delivery of stockholder communications a chance to travel to any one of 32 U.S. cities in which Wells REIT II owns property. While in Boston, the Lemothes enjoyed an itinerary that included a Red Sox game, the Freedom Trail tour, and many other local sights and attractions, as well as a private tour of Wells REIT II's 550 King Street property.

Wells REIT II inaugurated its sweepstakes program in June 2010 to encourage its investors to sign up for electronic delivery of statements and other stockholder communications, and to join its efforts to be a good steward of the environment. The campaign to promote "e-delivery" has resulted in over 25,000 sign-ups and has cut operating expenses by an estimated $240,000 - savings that ultimately benefit the more than 140,000 Wells REIT II investors across the nation.

Both Lemothes are graduates of Texas A&M University. Ryan is employed as an engineer with Hess in Houston.

"Jennifer and I signed up for ‘e-delivery' as a way to model environmental responsibility for our boys," said Ryan. "Electronic delivery of statements was an easy choice to make," added Jennifer. "It's convenient and it helps reduce paper waste, which is rewarding in and of itself"

"We are pleased that Ryan and Jennifer Lemothe were able to take this trip, and we appreciate their support of our e-delivery initiative" said Nelson Mills, president of Wells REIT II. "We believe paperless delivery of stockholder communications is both cost-efficient and good for the environment. We hope Ryan and Jennifer spread the word that simple choices like this can make a significant difference in how natural resources are consumed."

Wells REIT II properties in the metropolitan Houston area include 5 Houston Center on McKinney Street near Interstate 45 and Highway 59, Energy Center I on North Dairy Ashford Road near Interstate 10, and Weatherford Center on Post Oak Boulevard near Memorial Park and Interstate 610.
