FORMING PART OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL

Signatures on this Letter of Transmittal must be guaranteed, if applicable, in Box 4 in accordance with Rule 17Ad–15 (promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) by an eligible guarantor institution that is a participant in a stock transfer association recognized program, such as a firm that is a member of a registered national securities exchange, a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, by a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States or by an international bank, securities dealer, securities broker or other financial institution licensed to do business in its home country.

2. Delivery of Letter of Transmittal. This Letter of Transmittal, properly completed and duly executed, should be sent by mail or courier or delivered by hand to the Company in each case at the address set forth on the front page of this Letter of Transmittal, in order to make an effective tender. A properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal must be received by the Company

at the address set forth on the front page of this Letter of Transmittal by 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the Expiration Date, unless the Offer (as defined below) is extended. The Purchase Price will be paid and issued in exchange for the Shares tendered and accepted for purchase by the Company pursuant to the Offer to Purchase in all cases only after receipt by the Company of a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal.

The method of delivery of all documents is at the option and risk of the Signatory (as defined below) and the delivery will be deemed made only when actually received. If delivery is by mail, registered mail with return receipt requested, properly insured, is recommended.

3. Signatures on this Letter of Transmittal, Powers of Attorney and Endorsements.

(a) If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered holder(s) of the Shares to be tendered, the signature(s) of the holder on this Letter of Transmittal must correspond exactly with the name(s) on the subscription agreement accepted by the Company in connection with the purchase of the Shares, unless such Shares have been transferred by the registered holder(s), in which event this Letter of Transmittal should be signed in exactly the same form as the name of the last transferee indicated on the stock ledger maintained in book-entry form by DST Systems, Inc., the Company’s transfer agent.

(b) If any Shares tendered with this Letter of Transmittal are owned of record by two or more joint owners, all such owners must sign this Letter of Transmittal.

(c) If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered holder(s) of the Shares listed, such person must so indicate when signing, and proper evidence satisfactory to the Company of such person’s authority to so act must be submitted.

4. Withholding. The Company is entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment to be made pursuant to the Offer to any stockholder whose Shares are accepted for tender by the Company any amounts that the Company is required to deduct and withhold with respect to making such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any other provision of state, local, or foreign tax law. To the extent any amounts are withheld, the withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes as having been made and attributable to the holder of Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Each stockholder accepting the Offer who has not previously submitted to the Company a correct, completed and signed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 (“Form W-9”) or substituted Form W-9 (included with the original subscription) (for U.S. Stockholders) or IRS Form W-8BEN (“Form W-8BEN”), IRS Form W-8BEN-E (“Form W-8BEN-E”), IRS Form W-8IMY (“Form W-8IMY”), IRS Form W-8ECI (“Form W-8ECI”), or other applicable form (for Non-U.S. Stockholders), or otherwise established an exemption from such withholding, must submit the appropriate form to the Company. This form requirement is intended to prevent the potential imposition of U.S. federal backup withholding tax on the gross payments made pursuant to the Offer, prior to receiving such payments. Certain persons holding Shares (including among others, most corporations and certain foreign persons) are exempt from backup withholding. The applicable rate for backup withholding is currently 28%. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of a person or persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of tax, a refund may be obtained by an affected stockholder from the IRS. A stockholder should consult his or her tax advisor as to his or her qualification for exemption from the backup withholding requirements and the procedure for obtaining an exemption.

5. Determinations of Validity. All questions as to the form of documents and the validity of Shares will be resolved by the Company in its sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding. The Company reserves the absolute right to reject any deliveries of any Shares that are not in proper form, or the acceptance of which would, in the opinion of the Company, be unlawful. The Company reserves the absolute right to waive any defect or irregularity of delivery for exchange with regard to any Shares, provided that any such waiver shall apply to all tenders of Shares.

6. Cost Basis. The Company has elected the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method as the default for calculating cost basis for covered shares as defined in the Company’s offering documents. If you wish to change your cost basis method, please go to www.hinessecurities.com to log into your account.

DST SYSTEMS, INC., AS ADMINISTRATOR FOR THE COMPANY, WILL NOT BE OBLIGATED

TO GIVE ANY NOTICE OF ANY DEFECT OR IRREGULARITY IN ANY TENDER, AND WILL NOT

INCUR ANY LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO GIVE ANY SUCH NOTICE.
