Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements, including discussion and analysis of our financial condition, anticipated capital expenditures required to complete projects, amounts of anticipated cash distributions to our shareholders in the future and other matters. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts but are the intent, belief or current expectations of our management based on its knowledge and understanding of our business and industry. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “potential,” “predicts,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates” or the negative of such terms and variations of these words and similar expressions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements that were true at the time made may ultimately prove to be incorrect or false. You are cautioned to not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect our management’s view only as of the date of this Form 10-K. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-K include:

●

the imposition of federal taxes if we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year or forego an opportunity to ensure REIT status;

●

uncertainties related to the national economy, the real estate industry in general and in our specific markets;

●

legislative or regulatory changes, including changes to laws governing REITS;

●

construction costs that may exceed estimates or construction delays;

●

increases in interest rates;

●

availability of credit or significant disruption in the credit markets;

●

litigation risks;

●

lease-up risks;

●

inability to obtain new tenants upon the expiration of existing leases;

●

inability to generate sufficient cash flows due to market conditions, competition, uninsured losses, changes in tax or other applicable laws; and

●

the potential need to fund tenant improvements or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flow.

The forward-looking statements should be read in light of these factors and the factors identified in the “Risk Factors” sections of this Form 10-K.

PART I

Item 1. Business

General

We are a Maryland corporation formed on February 5, 2009, to acquire and invest in income-producing commercial properties, including office buildings, shopping centers, other retail and commercial properties, some of which may be actively leased to a number of tenants having relatively short (1-3) year leases and others may be net leased to a single tenant. We expect to make our investments in or in respect of real estate assets located in the United States based on our view of existing market conditions. We intend to qualify as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, for federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year ending December 31, 2011.

On December 28, 2010, we entered into the operating agreement of Hartman Richardson Heights Properties LLC (the “Joint Venture”),. The Company made an initial capital contribution to the Joint Venture of $1.915 million representing a 10% interest in the Joint Venture. Hartman Short Term Income Properties XIX, Inc. (“Hartman XIX”), the other member of the Joint Venture is a REIT that is managed by affiliates of the Company’s manager and real property manager. Hartman XIX has made capital contributions totaling $17.235 million to the Joint Venture representing a 90% interest therein. Our equity in earnings of the Joint Venture were $1,719 for the period from December 28, 2010 to December 31, 2010.

We do not currently intend to list our common shares on a stock exchange. Our offices are located at 2909 Hillcroft, Suite 420, Houston, Texas 77057. Our telephone number is 713-467-2222. Information regarding the Company is available via the internet at www.hi-reit.com.

Business Objectives

Our primary investment objectives are to:

realize growth in the value of our investments within five to ten years of the termination of this offering;

to preserve, protect and return your capital contribution;

to grow net cash from operations such that more cash is available for distributions to you; and

to enable you to realize a return of your investment by beginning the process of liquidating and distributing cash to you or by listing our shares for trading on a national securities exchange within ten (10) years after termination of this offering.

We intend to begin the process of liquidating our assets or listing our shares within ten years of the termination of this primary offering, unless we obtain the approval of a majority of our shareholders to defer the liquidation or to approve an alternate strategy.

Competition

We anticipate that there will be competing properties in areas where we may acquire properties. The amount of competition in a particular area could impact our ability to acquire commercial real estate, lease space and impact the amount of rent we are able to charge. We may be competing with owners, including but not limited to, other REITs, insurance companies and pension funds, with access to greater resources than those available to us.

Management and Advisory Agreements

We operate under the direction of our board of directors, the members of which are accountable to us and our shareholders. Our external advisor is Hartman Advisors, LLC (“Hartman Advisors” or the “Advisor”), an affiliate, which is responsible for managing our affairs on a day-to-day basis and for identifying and making acquisitions and investments on our behalf. The key personnel of Hartman Advisors will be involved in the selection, acquisition, financing and disposition of our properties, and raising the capital to purchase. The key personnel of our advisor have extensive experience in selecting and operating commercial real estate and in operating investment entities that acquire commercial real estate. Our property manager is Hartman Income REIT Management, Inc. (“HIR Management” or the “Property Manager”) which is responsible for maintaining and operating our properties. HIR Management is the wholly owned second tier subsidiary of Hartman Income REIT, Inc. (“HIREIT”), a real estate investment trust that has investment objectives that in many material respects are similar to those that we intend to employ.

Employees

Although we have executive officers who will manage our operations, we do not have any paid employees. Substantially all of the paid services performed for us are rendered through the advisor or the property manager, with respect to the operation and maintenance of our properties.

Environmental Matters

Under various federal and state environmental laws and regulations, as an owner or operator of real estate, we may be required to investigate and clean up certain hazardous or toxic substances, asbestos-containing materials, or petroleum product releases at our properties. We may also be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage and for investigation and cleanup costs incurred by those parties in connection with the contamination. In addition, some environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated site in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs in connection with the contamination. The presence of contamination or the failure to remediate contaminations at any of our properties may adversely affect our ability to sell or lease the properties or to borrow using the properties as collateral.

We will not purchase any property unless and until we obtain what is generally referred to as a “Phase I” environmental site assessment and are generally satisfied with the environmental status of the property. A Phase I environmental site assessment basically consists of a visual survey of the building and the property in an attempt to identify areas of potential environmental concerns, visually observing neighboring properties to assess surface conditions or activities that may have an adverse environmental impact on the property, and contacting local governmental agency personnel and performing a regulatory agency file search in an attempt to determine any known environmental concerns in the immediate vicinity of the property. A Phase I environmental site assessment does not generally include any sampling or testing of soil, groundwater or building materials from the property. Certain properties that we have acquired contain, or contained, dry-cleaning establishments utilizing solvents. Where believed to be warranted, samplings of building materials or subsurface investigations were undertaken with respect to these and other properties.

Recent Developments

As of December 20, 2010, we had received and accepted sufficient investor’s subscriptions to meet the requirements of our primary offering. We made an initial capital contribution to the Joint Venture on December 28, 2010 and declared a dividend as of December 31, 2010.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following describes risk factors which we believe are applicable to the Company:

There is no public trading market for our shares, and we cannot assure you that one will ever develop. Until our shares are listed, if ever, you may not sell your shares unless the buyer meets the applicable suitability and minimum purchase standards. Furthermore, if we do not achieve our goal of commencing a liquidation or listing within five to ten years after the termination of this offering, your shares may continue to be illiquid and you may, for an indefinite period of time, be unable to convert your investment into cash easily with minimum loss. In addition, our charter prohibits the ownership of more than 9.8% of our outstanding shares of common or preferred stock, unless exempted by our board of directors. Until our shares are publicly traded, you will have difficulty selling your shares, and even if you are able to sell your shares, you will likely have to sell them at a substantial discount.

Our board of directors arbitrarily set the offering price of our shares of common stock, and this price bears no relationship to the book or net value of our assets or to our expected operating income. Pursuant to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA), and the rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), we will provide annual estimates of the current value of a share of our common stock. Until eighteen months after this offering of our shares (unless a subsequent offering is underway within eighteen months of the close of this offering, in which case the price at which our shares are then being offered will apply), we intend to use the offering price of shares in our most recent primary offering as the estimated value of a share of our common stock (unless we have sold assets and made special distributions to stockholders of net proceeds from such sales, in which case the estimated value of a share of our common stock will equal the offering price less the amount of those special distributions constituting a return of capital). This valuation method may not result in an estimated per share value that accurately reflects the proceeds you would receive upon liquidation or upon the sale of your shares. Thereafter our board will determine the value of our common stock based on the latest data concerning our properties’ then current fair market value, as estimated by our board, and based on the amount and terms of any debt that we may issue and any classes of senior preferred stock that we may issue. The board may but need not employ an independent appraiser to assist with the valuation of the properties. If we engage in a subsequent offering of our shares, we will rely on the offering price of our shares to value our shares during that offering.

We have limited operating history nor established financing sources, and the prior performance of real estate investment programs sponsored by affiliates of our advisor may not be an indication of our future results.

This is a “blind pool” offering because we do not currently own any properties or other real estate assets except as disclosed in this report, and we may not identify any additional assets to acquire with proceeds from this offering. You will not have the opportunity to evaluate our investments prior to our making them. You must rely totally upon our advisor’s ability to select our investments.

Our ability to acquire, develop and operate our properties could be impacted by the current slowing or recession in the U.S. economy. Because the U.S. economy has slowed and has been in recession, demand for our properties could be adversely impacted. If the U.S. economy continues to operate at the present rates or if it declines further, our strategy to acquire, develop, lease, finance and sell our properties could be impacted.

Acquisition and ownership of real estate is subject to risks associated with environmental hazards. We may be liable for environmental hazards at our properties, including those created by prior owners or occupants, existing tenants, abutters or other persons. Some of the properties that we plan to develop or acquire may include facilities and tanks for the storage of petroleum products and other hazardous substances, all of which create the potential for environmental damages. As a result, we may be expected to regularly incur environmental clean up costs. We intend to include in the leases that we enter with future tenants, an agreement for such tenants to indemnify us from all environmental liabilities arising its activities at such property during the term of the lease. Despite this indemnity, various federal and state laws impose environmental liabilities upon property owners, such as us, for any environmental damages arising on properties they own or occupy, and we cannot be assured that we will not be held liable for environmental clean up at our properties, including environmental damages at sites we own and lease. As an owner or previous owner of properties which contain environmental hazards, we also may be liable to pay damages to governmental agencies or third parties for costs and damages they incur arising from environmental hazards at the properties. Moreover, the costs and damages which may arise from environmental hazards are often difficult to project and our future tenants may not have sufficient resources to pay its environmental liabilities.

The number of investments that we will make and the diversification of those investments will be reduced to the extent that we sell less than the maximum offering of 25,000,000 shares. If we do not sell substantially more than the minimum offering amount of 200,000 shares, we may make only one acquisition and the value of your investment may fluctuate more widely with the performance of that specific investment. As of December 31, 2010, we have made only one real estate investment. There is a greater risk that you will lose money in your investment if we cannot diversify our portfolio.

Our ability to achieve our investment objectives and to make distributions depends on the performance of our advisor for the day-to-day management of our business and the selection of our real estate properties, loans and other investments.

Our property acquisition strategy may involve the acquisition of properties in markets that are depressed or overbuilt, and/or those with high growth potential in real estate lease rates and sale prices. As a result of our investment in these types of markets, we will face increased risks relating to changes in local market conditions and increased competition for similar properties in the same market, as well as increased risks that these markets will not recover and the value of our properties in these markets will not increase, or will decrease, over time. Our intended approach to acquiring and operating income-producing properties involves more risk than comparable real estate programs that have a targeted holding period for investments longer than ours, utilize leverage to a lesser degree and/or employ more conservative investment strategies.

Until all proceeds from this offering are invested and generating operating cash flow sufficient to make distributions to our stockholders, some or all of our distributions will be paid from other sources, such as from the proceeds of this or other offerings, cash advances to us by our advisor, cash resulting from a deferral of asset management fees, and borrowings (including borrowings secured by our assets) in anticipation of future operating cash flow, which may reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in assets, and negatively impact the return on your investment and the value of your investment. There is no limit on the amount of offering proceeds we may use to fund distributions.

We expect to have little, if any, cash flow from operations available for distribution until we make substantial investments and until we have leased any properties developed by us. To the extent our investments are in development or redevelopment projects or in properties that have significant capital requirements, our ability to make distributions may be negatively impacted, especially during our early periods of operation.

We will pay significant fees to our advisor and its affiliates, some of which are payable based upon factors other than the quality of services provided to us. These fees could influence our advisor’s advice to us as well as the judgment of affiliates of our advisor performing services for us. As of December 31, 2010, we have accrued acquisition fees of $47,875 or 2.5% of total real estate investment payable to our advisor.

Our advisor and its affiliates will face various conflicts of interest resulting from their activities, such as conflicts related to allocating the purchase and leasing of properties and other assets between us and other Hartman-sponsored programs, conflicts related to any joint ventures, or other co-ownership arrangements between us and any such other programs and conflicts arising from time demands placed on our advisor and its executive officers in serving other Hartman-sponsored programs.

We have issued to Hartman Advisors, our advisor, 1,000 shares of our convertible preferred stock at a purchase price of $10.00 per share. Our convertible preferred stock will convert to shares of common stock if (1) we have made total distributions on then outstanding shares of our common stock equal to the “issue price” of those shares, i.e., the gross amount originally paid to us for those shares, plus a 6% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on the issue price of those outstanding shares, (2) we list our common stock for trading on a national securities exchange if the sum of prior distributions on then outstanding shares of our common stock plus the aggregate market value of our common stock (based on the 30-day average closing price) meets the same 6% performance threshold, or (3) our advisory agreement with Hartman Advisors expires without renewal or is terminated (other than because of a material breach by our advisor), and at the time of such expiration or termination we are deemed to have met the foregoing 6% performance threshold based on our enterprise value and prior distributions and, at or subsequent to the expiration or termination, the stockholders actually realize such level of performance upon listing or through total distributions. In general, our convertible preferred stock will convert into shares of common stock with a value equal to 15% of the excess of our enterprise value plus the aggregate value of distributions paid to date on then outstanding shares of our common stock over the aggregate issue price of those outstanding shares plus a 6% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on the issue price of those outstanding shares. With respect to conversion in connection with the termination of the advisory agreement, this calculation is made at the time of termination even though the actual conversion may occur later or not at all.

We may incur substantial debt. For the most part, loans we incur will be secured by one or more of our properties, which will put those properties at risk of forfeiture if we are unable to pay our debts and could hinder our ability to make distributions to our stockholders or could decrease the return on your investment and the value of your investment in the event income on such properties, or their value, falls. Principal and interest payments on these loans reduce the amount of money available to make distributions to you.

To ensure that we continue to qualify as a REIT, our charter contains certain protective provisions, including a provision that prohibits any stockholder from owning more than 9.8% of our outstanding shares of common or preferred stock during any time that we are qualified as a REIT. However, our charter also allows our board to waive compliance with certain of these protective provisions, which may have the effect of jeopardizing our REIT status. Furthermore, this limitation does not apply to the holder of our convertible preferred stock or shares of common stock issued upon conversion of our convertible preferred stock.

We may not qualify or remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, which would subject us to the payment of tax on our income at corporate rates and reduce the amount of funds available for payment of distributions to our stockholders.

If we hold and sell one or more properties through TRSs, our return to stockholders would be diminished because the gain from any such sale would be subject to a corporate-level tax, thereby reducing the net proceeds from such sale available for distribution to our stockholders. Moreover, if the ownership and sale of one or more of our properties by a TRS causes the value of our non-mortgage securities in our TRSs to exceed 20% of the value of all of our assets at the end of any calendar quarter, we may lose our status as a REIT.

Real estate investments are subject to general downturns in the industry as well as downturns in specific geographic areas. We cannot predict what the occupancy level will be in a particular building or that any tenant or mortgage or other real estate-related loan borrower will remain solvent. We also cannot predict the future value of our properties. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that you will receive cash distributions or appreciation of your investment.

You will not have preemptive rights as a stockholder; thus, any shares we issue in the future may dilute your interest in us.

We may invest some of the offering proceeds to acquire vacant land on which a building will be constructed in the future. Additionally, we may acquire property for redevelopment. These types of investments involve risks relating to the construction company’s ability to control construction costs, failure to perform, or failure to build or redevelop in conformity with plan specifications and timetables. We will be subject to potential cost overruns and time delays for properties under construction or redevelopment. Increased costs of newly constructed or redeveloped properties may reduce our returns to you, while construction delays may delay our ability to distribute cash to you.

Each of our executive officers, including Allen R. Hartman, who also serves as the chairman of our board of directors, also serve as officers of our advisor and other entities affiliated with our advisor, including the advisors to other Hartman-sponsored real estate programs, and as a result they will face conflicts of interest relating from their duties to these other entities.

Because federal income tax laws may restrict us as a REIT from operating certain of our properties, we have determined not to manage our properties. Instead, we have retained a manager to manage our properties pursuant to the Property Management Agreement. Our income from our properties may be adversely affected if our property manager fails to provide quality services and amenities to our tenants. While we monitor our property manager’s performance, we have limited recourse under our property management agreement if we believe that the property manager is not performing adequately. Failure by our property manager to fully perform the duties agreed to in our property management agreement could adversely affect our results of operations.

We may be unable to access the capital necessary to grow. To retain our status as a REIT, we are required to distribute 90% of our taxable income to shareholders and we generally cannot retain sufficient income from operations to develop or invest in our properties or fund our acquisitions. Accordingly, our business and growth strategy depend, in part, upon our ability to raise additional capital at reasonable costs to repay our debt maturities and to fund new investments. However, the U.S. capital markets are currently experiencing severe liquidity constraints and our ability to raise reasonably priced capital is not guaranteed; we may be unable to raise reasonably priced capital because of reasons related to our business or for reasons beyond our control, such as the current restrictive market conditions in the debt capital market.

We believe the deteriorating business conditions which have recently affected the locations which we operate, including the impact of the slowing U.S. economy, the weak U.S. dollar and the high and volatile fuel prices, could adversely affect our tenants and may make it difficult for our tenants to pay the rent due to us. A failure by our tenants to pay rents to us may cause us to continue to experience losses or cause our losses to increase.

Lack of Separate Representation

Irvine Venture Law Firm LLP and James H. Stokes, Jr., our General Counsel, each act, and may in the future act, as counsel to us, Hartman Advisors, Hartman Income REIT Management, Inc. and their affiliates in connection with the Offering. There is a possibility that in the future the interests of the various parties may become adverse, and under the Code of Professional Responsibility of the legal profession, Irvine Venture Law Firm, LLP or James H. Stokes, Jr. may be precluded from representing any one or all of such parties. In the event that a dispute were to arise between us, Hartman Advisors, Hartman Income REIT Management, Inc. or any of our respective affiliates, separate counsel for such matters will be retained as and when appropriate.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

None.

Item 2. Properties

General

We intend to acquire, develop and own commercial, retail, industrial, and warehouse real estate and real estate-related assets. Our properties may be existing, income-producing properties developed by an affiliate of our advisor, newly constructed properties or properties under development or construction.

We may invest in a wide variety of light commercial properties, including, without limitation, office buildings, business and industrial parks, manufacturing facilities, single-tenant properties, warehouses and distribution facilities. We may purchase properties that have been constructed and have operating histories, are newly constructed, are under development or construction, or are not yet developed. Additionally, as a property reaches what we believe to be its optimum value, we will consider disposing of the property and may do so for the purpose of either distributing the net sale proceeds to our stockholders or investing the proceeds in other properties that we believe may produce a higher overall future return to our investors. We anticipate that such dispositions typically would occur during the period from three to six years after the termination of this offering. However, we may consider investing in properties with a different anticipated holding period in the event such properties provide an opportunity for an attractive overall return.

We may enter into one or more joint ventures or other co-ownership arrangements for the acquisition, development or improvement of properties with third parties or certain affiliates of our advisor, including other present and future REITs and real estate limited partnerships sponsored by affiliates of our advisor. We may also serve as lender to these joint ventures or other Hartman-sponsored programs. The Company will not make or invest in mortgage loans, including construction loans, on any one Property if the aggregate amount of all mortgage loans outstanding on the Property, including our loans, would exceed an amount equal to 85% of the appraised value of the Property as determined by appraisal unless substantial justification exists because of the presence of other underwriting criteria.

We will not directly manage our properties. The management of our properties will be through Hartman Income REIT Management, Inc. (“Property Manager”). Allied Beacon Partners, Inc. (formerly American Beacon Partners, Inc., the “Dealer Manager”) serves as the dealer manager of our public offering. These parties will receive compensation and fees for services related to the offering and for the investment and management of our assets. These entities will receive fees during the offering, acquisition, operational and liquidation stages.

On December 28, 2010, the same day we entered into the Joint Venture, the Joint Venture acquired a retail shopping center located in Richardson, Texas for an aggregate purchase price of $19.15 million on an all cash basis from the seller, LNR Partners, LLC. The property is located at 100 South Central Expressway, Richardson, Texas and commonly known as Richardson Heights Shopping Center. The property consists of 201,433 square feet and is 57.6% occupied at the acquisition date. Richardson is a suburb of Dallas, Texas. Our 10% equity interest in earnings from our unconsolidated investment in Richardson Heights Shopping Center was $1,719 at December 31, 2010.

Location of Property

The Richardson Heights Shopping Center is located in the northeast quadrant of the Dallas metropolitan statistical area (“MSA”). Richardson, a residential and electronic manufacturing suburb of Dallas, is ten miles north of downtown Dallas in northern Dallas and southern Collin counties.

We believe the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington MSA’s long-term outlook remains positive, although economic growth has suffered through 2010. While its cost advantages are slowly eroding and competition has increased with other regional centers such as Houston and Atlanta, the Dallas market’s skilled labor force, high per capita income, affordable housing and strong demographic trends will help maintain its position as one of the nation’s top performers.

General Physical and Economic Attributes

The Richardson Heights Shopping Center was built in 1958 and was renovated in 2008. As of January 10, 2011, the property had 32 tenants which occupied 115,940 square feet. The average rent for the occupied space was $16.73 per square foot, with the total rent revenue being $1,939,800. These amounts are calculated using the attained base rent listed for each tenant, which is equal to the current monthly base rent annualized, excluding any future contractual rent increases.

Significant Tenants

The following table sets forth information about our ten largest tenants as of December 31, 2010, based upon the current monthly base rent annualized at December 31, 2010:

Tenant Name	2010 Gross Annualized Base Rent		Rentable Square Feet		Initial Lease Date		Year Expiring
TJ Maxx – discount retail	$	265,548		27,953		3/1988		2015

PART II

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Shareholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Common Shares

There is currently no established public market in which our common shares are traded. As of March 31, 2011, we had 492,089 common shares issued and outstanding. Hartman XX Holdings, Inc., our parent company, held 19,000 common shares and the remainder was held by approximately 100 shareholders.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan

You may participate in our distribution reinvestment plan pursuant to which you may have the distributions you receive reinvested in shares of our common stock. Regardless of whether you participate in our distribution reinvestment plan, you will be taxed on your distributions to the extent they constitute taxable income. If you elect to participate in the distribution reinvestment plan and are subject to federal income taxation, you will incur a tax liability for distributions allocated to you even though you have elected not to receive the distributions in cash but rather to have the distributions withheld and reinvested pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan. Specifically, you will be treated as if you have received the distribution from us in cash and then applied such distribution to the purchase of additional shares. In addition, to the extent you purchase shares through our distribution reinvestment plan at a discount to their fair market value, you will be treated for tax purposes as receiving an additional distribution equal to the amount of the discount. In other words, based on the current offering price, participants in our distribution reinvestment plan will be treated as having received a distribution of $10.00 for each $9.50 reinvested by them under our distribution reinvestment plan. You will be taxed on the amount of such distribution as a dividend to the extent such distribution is from current or accumulated earnings and profits, unless we have designated all or a portion of the distribution as a capital gain dividend.

We may terminate the distribution reinvestment plan in our discretion at any time upon ten days’ notice to plan participants. See the “Summary of Distribution Reinvestment Plan and Automatic Purchase Plan” for further explanation of our distribution reinvestment plan. A complete copy of our distribution reinvestment plan and automatic purchase plan are located at pages C-1 and D-1 of the prospectus.

The Company declared a dividend distribution payable as of December 31, 2010 to shareholders of record as of that date. The total initial dividend distribution was $1,467 of which $935 was payable in cash and $532 was paid by issuance of 56.5705 shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan.

Share Redemption Program

Our board of directors has adopted a share redemption program that permits you to sell your shares back to us after you have held them for at least one year, subject to the significant conditions and limitations described below. Our board of directors can amend the provisions of our share redemption program without the approval of our stockholders. The purchase price for shares redeemed under the redemption program will be as set forth below. Our board of directors will periodically value our properties and our other assets to determine the value of our shares. Except for redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death or qualifying disability or redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s confinement to a long-term care facility, the purchase price for shares redeemed under the redemption program will equal:

•

in the first year, the amount by which (a) the lesser of (1) 90% of the average gross price per share the original purchaser or purchasers of your shares paid to us, which we refer to as the “issue price,” for all of your shares (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like with respect to our shares of common stock) or (2) 90% of the offering price of shares in our most recent primary offering exceeds (b) the aggregate amount of net sale proceeds per share, if any, distributed to investors prior to the redemption date as a result of the sale of one or more of our investments, or

•

in the second year, the amount by which (a) the lesser of (1) 92.5% of the average gross price per share the original purchaser or purchasers of your shares paid to us, which we refer to as the “issue price,” for all of your shares (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like with respect to our shares of common stock) or (2) 92.5% of the offering price of shares in our most recent primary offering exceeds (b) the aggregate amount of net sale proceeds per share, if any, distributed to investors prior to the redemption date as a result of the sale of one or more of our investments, or

•

in the third year, the amount by which (a) the lesser of (1) 95% of the average gross price per share the original purchaser or purchasers of your shares paid to us, which we refer to as the “issue price,” for all of your shares (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like with respect to our shares of common stock) or (2) 95% of the offering price of shares in our most recent primary offering exceeds (b) the aggregate amount of net sale proceeds per share, if any, distributed to investors prior to the redemption date as a result of the sale of one or more of our investments, or

•

in the fourth year, the amount by which (a) the lesser of (1) 97.5% of the average gross price per share the original purchaser or purchasers of your shares paid to us, which we refer to as the “issue price,” for all of your shares (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like with respect to our shares of common stock) or (2) 97.5% of the offering price of shares in our most recent primary offering exceeds (b) the aggregate amount of net sale proceeds per share, if any, distributed to investors prior to the redemption date as a result of the sale of one or more of our investments, or

•

thereafter the lesser of (1) 100% of the average issue price per share for all of your shares (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like with respect to our shares of common stock) or (2) 90% of the net asset value per share, as determined by the board of directors.

Our board of directors reserves the right in its sole discretion at any time to (1) waive the one-year holding period in the event of other exigent circumstances affecting a stockholder such as bankruptcy or a mandatory distribution requirement under a stockholder’s IRA, (2) reject any request for redemption, (3) change the purchase price for redemptions, or (4) otherwise amend the terms of our redemption program.

Subject to the limitations described in this supplement and provided that the redemption request is made within 270 days of the event giving rise to the following special circumstances, we will waive the one-year holding requirement (a) upon the request of the estate, heir or beneficiary of a deceased stockholder or (b) upon the disability of a stockholder or upon a stockholder’s confinement to a long-term care facility, provided that the condition causing such disability or need for long-term care was not preexisting on the date that such person became a stockholder

The purchase price per share for shares redeemed upon the death or disability of the stockholder or upon such stockholder’s confinement to a long-term care facility will be equal to the amount by which (a) the average issue price per share for all of your shares (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like with respect to the shares of common stock) exceeds (b) the aggregate amount of net sale proceeds per share, if any, distributed to investors prior to the redemption date as a result of the sale of one or more of our investments.

We intend to redeem shares quarterly under the program. We will not redeem in excess of 5% of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the 12-month period immediately prior to the date of redemption. Generally, the cash available for redemption will be limited to proceeds from our distribution reinvestment plan plus, if we had positive operating cash flow from the previous fiscal year, 1% of all operating cash flow from the previous fiscal year. These limitations apply to all redemptions, including redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death, qualifying disability or confinement to a long-term care facility. If those limitations prevent us from redeeming shares, those shares will remain in line to be redeemed with priority based on the date that the redemption is first requested. The redemption price will be the value of the shares as of the date of redemption. You may withdraw a request for redemption by submitting written instructions withdrawing your redemption request at any time prior to the date that we redeem your shares submitted. You will have no right to request redemption of your shares if the shares are listed for trading on a national securities exchange.

A request for redemption may be withdrawn in whole or in part by a stockholder in writing at any time prior to redemption. We cannot guarantee that the funds set aside for the share redemption program will be sufficient to accommodate all requests made in any particular redemption period. If we cannot accommodate a redemption request due to the foregoing limitations, the stockholder or his or her estate, heir or beneficiary can (1) withdraw the request for redemption, or (2) ask that we honor the request at such time, if any, when the limitations no longer prevent redemption. Such pending requests will be honored among all requests for redemptions in any given redemption period, as follows: first, pro rata as to redemptions sought upon a stockholder’s death or disability or sought upon a stockholder’s confinement to a long-term care facility; next, pro rata as to redemptions to stockholders who demonstrate, in the discretion of our board of directors, another involuntary, exigent circumstance, such as bankruptcy; next, pro rata as to redemptions to stockholders subject to a mandatory distribution requirement under their IRAs; and, finally, pro rata as to other redemption requests.

In general, a stockholder or his or her estate, heir or beneficiary may present to us fewer than all of the shares then owned for redemption, except that the minimum number of shares that must be presented for redemption shall be at least 25% of the holder’s shares. However, as little as 10% of a stockholder’s shares may be presented for redemption if the holder’s redemption request is made within 270 days of the event giving rise to the special circumstances described in this sentence, where redemption is being requested (1) on behalf of a deceased stockholder; (2) by a stockholder with a qualifying disability, who is deemed by our board of directors to be permanently disabled or who is seeking redemption upon confinement to a long-term care facility; (3) by a stockholder due to other involuntary, exigent circumstances, such as bankruptcy; or (4) by a stockholder due to a mandatory distribution under such stockholder’s IRA; provided, however, that any future redemption request by such stockholder must present for redemption at least 25% of such stockholder’s remaining shares. In the case of stockholders who undertake a series of partial redemptions, appropriate adjustments in the purchase price for the redeemed shares will be made so that the blended price per share for all redeemed shares is reflective of the issue price per share of all shares owned by such stockholder through the date of each redemption.

In connection with a request for redemption, the stockholder or his estate, heir or beneficiary will be required to certify to us that the stockholder acquired the shares to be repurchased either (1) directly from us or (2) from the original investor by way of (i) a bona fide gift not for value to, or for the benefit of, a member of the investor’s immediate or extended family (including the investor’s spouse, parents, siblings, children or grandchildren and including relatives by marriage), (ii) a transfer to a custodian, trustee or other fiduciary for the account of the investor or members of the investor’s immediate or extended family in connection with an estate planning transaction, including by bequest or inheritance upon death or (iii) operation of law.

Distribution Policy

In order to qualify as a REIT, we are required to distribute 90% of our annual REIT taxable income to our stockholders.

We expect to have little, if any, cash flow from operations available for distribution until we make substantial investments. Distributions may be funded from proceeds from this or other offerings until we have sufficient cash flow from real estate operations to fund distributions. There is no limit on the amount of offering proceeds we may use to fund distributions. In addition, to the extent our investments are in development or redevelopment projects or in properties that have significant capital requirements, our ability to make distributions may be negatively impacted, especially during our early periods of operation. As development projects are completed and begin to generate income, we expect to have additional funds available to distribute to you. Therefore, until such time as we have sufficient cash flow from operations to fund fully the payment of distributions therefrom, some or all of our distributions will be paid from other sources, such as from the proceeds of this or other offerings, cash advances to us by our advisor, cash resulting from a waiver of asset management fees, and borrowings, whether or not secured by our assets, in anticipation of future operating cash flow.

On December 17, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors also authorized the payment of cash distributions to the Company’s shareholders, contingent upon the acquisition of the joint venture interest. Distributions will (i) accrue daily to the Company’s shareholders of record as of the close of business each day commencing one day following the close of the acquisition of the joint venture interest and the property acquisition by the joint venture, (ii) be payable in cumulative amounts on or before the 20th day of each calendar month and (iii) be calculated at a rate of $0.001918 per share of common stock per day, a rate which, if paid each day over a 365-day period, is equivalent to a 7.0% annualized distribution rate based on a purchase price of $10.00 per share of common stock.

2009 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan

The Hartman Short Term Income Properties XX, Inc. 2009 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan, our stock incentive plan, was adopted by our board of directors and approved by our stockholders prior to the consummation of this offering. The stock incentive plan permits us to make grants of "incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, deferred stock awards, restricted stock awards, dividend equivalent rights and other stock-based awards" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, or any combination of the foregoing. We have initially reserved 5,000,000 shares of our common stock for the issuance of awards under our stock incentive plan, but in no event more than ten (10%) percent of our issued and outstanding shares. The number of shares reserved under our stock incentive plan is also subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend or other change in our capitalization. Generally, shares that are forfeited or canceled from awards under our stock incentive plan also will be available for future awards.

Our stock incentive plan is administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors. The compensation committee may interpret the stock incentive plan and may make all determinations necessary or desirable for the administration of the stock incentive plan and has full power and authority to select the participants to whom awards will be granted, to make any combination of awards to participants, to accelerate the exercisability or vesting of any award and to determine the specific terms and conditions of each award, subject to the provisions of our stock incentive plan. All full-time and part-time officers, employees, directors and other key persons (including consultants and prospective employees) are eligible to participate in our stock incentive plan.

We may issue incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options under the stock incentive plan. The incentive stock options granted under the stock incentive plan are intended to qualify as incentive stock options. The exercise price of stock options awarded under our stock incentive plan may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of the option grant. The compensation committee will determine at what time or times each option may be exercised (provided that in no event may it exceed ten years from the date of grant) and the period of time, if any, after retirement, death, disability or other termination of employment during which options may be exercised.

Stock appreciation rights may be granted under our stock incentive plan. Stock appreciation rights allow the participant to receive the appreciation in the fair market value of our common stock between the exercise date and the date of grant in the form of shares of our common stock. The exercise price of stock appreciation rights awarded under our stock incentive plan may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The compensation committee determines the terms of stock appreciation rights, including when such rights become exercisable and the period of time, if any, after retirement, death, disability or other termination of employment during which stock appreciation rights may be granted.

Restricted stock and deferred stock awards may also be granted under our stock incentive plan. Restricted stock awards are shares of our common stock that vest in accordance with terms and conditions established by the compensation committee. The compensation committee may impose whatever conditions to vesting it determines to be appropriate, including attainment of performance goals. Shares of restricted stock that do not satisfy the vesting conditions are subject to our right of repurchase or forfeiture. Deferred stock awards are stock units entitling the participant to receive shares of stock paid out on a deferred basis and subject to such restrictions and conditions as the compensation committee shall determine. The compensation committee may impose whatever conditions to vesting it determines to be appropriate, including attainment of performance goals. Deferred stock awards that do not satisfy the vesting conditions are subject to forfeiture.

Dividend equivalent rights may also be granted under our stock incentive plan. These rights entitle the participant to receive credits for dividends that would be paid if the participant had held specified shares of our common stock. Dividend equivalent rights may be granted as a component of another award or as a freestanding award.

Other stock-based awards under our stock incentive plan will include awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to shares of our common stock, other convertible or exchangeable securities, partnership interests in a subsidiary or our operating partnership (if formed), awards valued by reference to book value, fair value or performance of a subsidiary, and any class of profits interest or limited liability company membership interest.

Unless the compensation committee provides otherwise, our stock incentive plan does not generally allow for the transfer of awards, and only the participant may exercise an award during his or her lifetime. In the event of a change-in-control of the company, our board of directors and the board of directors of the surviving or acquiring entity shall, as to outstanding awards under our stock incentive plan, make appropriate provision for the continuation or assumption of such awards and may provide for the acceleration of vesting with respect to existing awards.

The terms of the stock incentive plan provide that we may amend, suspend or terminate the stock incentive plan at any time, but stockholder approval of any such action will be obtained if required to comply with applicable law. Further, no action may be taken that adversely affects any rights under outstanding awards without the holder's consent. The stock incentive plan will terminate on the tenth anniversary of the date on which stockholder approval was received.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation

We were formed as a Maryland corporation on February 5, 2009 to invest in and operate real estate and real estate-related assets on an opportunistic basis. We may acquire a wide variety of commercial properties, including office, industrial, retail, and other real properties. These properties may be existing, income-producing properties, newly constructed properties or properties under development or construction. In particular, we will focus on acquiring properties with significant possibilities for short-term capital appreciation, such as those requiring development, redevelopment or repositioning or those located in markets with high growth potential. We also may invest in real estate-related securities and, to the extent that our advisor determines that it is advantageous, we may invest in mortgage loans. We expect to make our investments in or in respect of real estate assets located in the United States and other countries. The net proceeds of this offering will provide funds to enable us to purchase properties and other real estate-related investments. As of the date of this Form 10-K, we have entered into the operating agreement of Hartman Richardson Heights Properties LLC. The number of assets we acquire will depend upon the number of shares sold in the current offering and the resulting amount of the net proceeds available for investment in properties. See “Risk Factors.”

We expect to make an election under Section 856(c) of the Internal Revenue Code to be taxed as a REIT, beginning with the taxable year ending December 31, 2011. Once we have qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes; we will not generally be subject to federal income tax. Once we make an election to be taxed as a REIT and later fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for four years following the year in which our qualification is denied. Such an event could materially and adversely affect our net income. However, we believe that we are organized and will operate in a manner that will enable us to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and we intend to operate so as to remain, thereafter qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.

For the year ended December 31, 2010 and for the period from inception (February 5, 2009) to December 31, 2009, the Company incurred a net loss of $247,191 and $579,177, respectively. The Company intends to qualify as a REIT beginning in 2011. The Company does not currently anticipate forming any taxable REIT subsidiaries or otherwise generating future taxable income which may be offset by the net loss carry forward. The Company considers that any deferred tax benefit and corresponding deferred tax asset which may be recorded in light of the net loss carry forward would be properly offset by an equal valuation allowance in that no future taxable income is expected. Accordingly no deferred tax benefit or deferred tax asset has been recorded in the financial statements.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying balance sheet and the notes thereto.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that management believes will be critical going forward. We consider these policies critical because they involve difficult management judgments and assumptions, require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain and because they are important for understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. Our most sensitive estimates will involve the allocation of the purchase price of acquired properties and evaluating our real estate-related investments for impairment.

Development Stage Entity

We are considered to be a development stage entity, as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 915. We have generated limited revenues to date, other than the interest income generated from the escrowed proceeds, we have incurred significant expenses and have sustained recurring losses. Consequently, our operations are subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. For the period from February 5, 2009 (date of inception) through December 31, 2010, the Company has accumulated losses of $579,177.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Our financial statements will include our accounts, the accounts of variable interest entities (VIEs) in which we are the primary beneficiary and the accounts of other subsidiaries over which we have control. All inter-company transactions, balances and profits will be eliminated in consolidation. Interests in entities acquired will be evaluated for consolidation based on Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) (ASC 810-10-15), which requires the consolidation of VIEs in which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. If the interest in the entity is determined to not be a VIE, then the entity is evaluated for consolidation under ASC 970-323-25.

There are judgments and estimates involved in determining if an entity in which we have made an investment is a VIE and if so, if we are the primary beneficiary. The entity is evaluated to determine if it is a VIE by, among other things, calculating the percentage of equity being risked compared to the total equity of the entity. ASC 810-10-15 provides some guidelines as to what the minimum equity at risk should be, but the percentage can vary depending upon the industry and/or the type of operations of the entity and it is up to management to determine that minimum percentage as it relates to our business and the facts surrounding each of our acquisitions. In addition, even if the entity’s equity at risk is a very low percentage, we are required by ASC 810-10-15, to evaluate the equity at risk compared to the entity’s expected future losses to determine if there could still in fact be sufficient equity at the entity. Determining expected future losses involves assumptions of various possibilities of the results of future operations of the entity, assigning a probability to each possibility and using a discount rate to determine the net present value of those future losses. A change in the judgments, assumptions and estimates outlined above could result in consolidating an entity that should not be consolidated or accounting for an investment on the equity method that should in fact be consolidated, the effects of which could be material to our financial statements.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture

Investment in unconsolidated joint venture as of December 31, 2010 consists of our interest in a joint venture that owns one multi-tenant property (the “Unconsolidated Joint Venture”). Consolidation of this investment is not required as the entity does not qualify as a variable interest entity and does not meet the control requirements for consolidation, as defined in ASC 810. Both the Company and the Unconsolidated Joint Venture partner must approve significant decisions about the Unconsolidated Joint Venture’s activities. As of December 31, 2010, the Unconsolidated Joint Venture held total assets of $19.15 million.

The Company accounts for the Unconsolidated Joint Venture using the equity method of accounting per guidance established under ASC 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (“ASC 323”). The equity method of accounting requires this investment to be initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for the Company’s share of equity in the joint venture’s earnings and distributions. The Company evaluates the carrying amount of this investment for impairment in accordance with ASC 323. The Unconsolidated Joint Venture is reviewed for potential impairment if the carrying amount of the investment exceeds its fair value. To determine whether impairment is other-than-temporary, the Company considers whether it has the ability and intent to hold the investment until the carrying value is fully recovered. The evaluation of an investment in a joint venture for potential impairment can require our management to exercise significant judgments. No impairment losses were recorded related to the Unconsolidated Joint Venture for the year ended December 31, 2010. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company did not have any interests in joint ventures.

Real Estate

Upon the acquisition of real estate properties, we will allocate the purchase price of those properties to the tangible assets acquired, consisting of land, land improvements, buildings, building improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment, identified intangible assets, asset retirement obligations and assumed liabilities based on their relative fair values in accordance with ASC 805-10 - Business Combinations, and ASC 350-10 Intangibles- Goodwill and other identified intangible assets consist of the fair value of above-market and below-market leases, in-place leases, in-place tenant improvements, tenant relationships and other intangible assets. Initial valuations are subject to change until our information is finalized, which is no later than 12 months from the acquisition date.

The fair value of the tangible assets to be acquired, consisting of land, land improvements, buildings, building improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment, will be determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value will then be allocated to the tangible assets. Land values will be derived from appraisals, and building and land improvement values will be calculated as replacement cost less depreciation or management’s estimates of the relative fair value of these assets using discounted cash flow analyses or similar methods. Furniture, fixtures and equipment values will be determined based on current reproduction or replacement cost less depreciation and other estimated allowances based on physical, functional or economic factors. The values of the buildings will be depreciated over the estimated useful lives ranging from 25 years for office property to 39 years for hotel property using the straight-line method. Land improvements will be depreciated over the estimated useful life of 15 years, and furniture, fixtures and equipment will be depreciated over estimated useful lives ranging from five to seven years using the straight-line method.

We will determine the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases for acquired properties based on the present value (using an interest rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (1) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (2) management’s estimate of current market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. We will record the fair value of above-market and below-market leases as intangible assets or intangible liabilities, respectively, and amortize them as an adjustment to rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases and any bargain renewal periods, if applicable.

The total value of identified real estate intangible assets acquired will be further allocated to in-place lease values, in-place tenant improvements, in-place leasing commissions and tenant relationships based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and our overall relationship with that respective tenant. The aggregate value for tenant improvements and leasing commissions will be based on estimates of these costs incurred at inception of the acquired leases, amortized through the date of acquisition. The aggregate value of in-place leases acquired and tenant relationships will be determined by applying a fair value model. The estimates of fair value of in-place leases will include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods for the respective spaces considering current market conditions. In estimating the carrying costs that would have otherwise been incurred had the leases not been in place, management will include such items as real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses as well as lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up period based on current market conditions. The estimates of the fair value of tenant relationships will also include costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and tenant improvements, as well as an estimate of the likelihood of renewal as determined by management on a tenant-by-tenant basis.

We will amortize the value of in-place leases and in-place tenant improvements to expense over the initial term of the respective leases. The value of tenant relationship intangibles will be amortized to expense over the initial term and any anticipated renewal periods, but in no event will the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and tenant relationship intangibles would be charged to expense.

We will determine the fair value of assumed debt by calculating the net present value of the scheduled note payments using interest rates for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities that we believe we could obtain. Any difference between the fair value and stated value of the assumed debt will be recorded as a discount or premium and amortized over the remaining life of the loan.

In allocating the purchase price of each of our properties, management will make assumptions and use various estimates, including, but not limited to, the estimated useful lives of the assets, the cost of replacing certain assets, discount rates used to determine present values, market rental rates per square foot and the period required to lease the property up to its occupancy at acquisition if it were vacant. Many of these estimates will be obtained from independent third-party appraisals. However, management will be responsible for the source and use of these estimates. A change in these estimates and assumptions could result in the various categories of our real estate assets and/or related intangibles being overstated or understated, which could result in an overstatement or understatement of depreciation and/or amortization expense. These variances could be material to our financial statements.

Investment Impairments

For real estate we wholly own, our management will monitor events and changes in circumstances indicating that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, we will assess potential impairment by comparing estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows expected to be generated over the life of the asset and from its eventual disposition to the carrying amount of the asset. In the event that the carrying amount exceeds the estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows, we will recognize an impairment loss to adjust the carrying amount of the asset to estimated fair value.

For real estate we own through an investment in a joint venture, tenant-in-common interest or other similar investment structure, at each reporting date, we will compare the estimated fair value of our investment to the carrying value. An impairment charge will be recorded to the extent the fair value of our investment is less than the carrying amount and the decline in value is determined to be other than a temporary decline.

In evaluating our investments for impairment, management will make several estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the projected date of disposition of the properties, the estimated future cash flows of the properties during our ownership and the projected sales price of each of the properties. A change in these estimates and assumptions could result in understating or overstating the book value of our investments, which could be material to our financial statements.

Competition

The current market for properties that meet our investment objectives is highly competitive as is the leasing market for such properties. We compete with many other entities engaged in real estate investment activities, including individuals, corporations, bank and insurance company investment accounts, REITs, other real estate limited partnerships, and other entities engaged in real estate investment activities, many of which will have greater resources than we will. We may also compete with other Hartman-sponsored programs to acquire properties and other investments. In the event that an investment opportunity becomes available that is suitable, under all of the factors considered by our advisor, for both us and one or more other Hartman-sponsored programs, and for which more than one of such entities has sufficient uninvested funds, then the entity that has had the longest period of time elapse since it was offered an investment opportunity will first be offered the investment opportunity. It will be the duty of our advisor to ensure that this method is applied fairly to us.

Results of Operations

On December 28, 2010, we entered into the operating agreement of Hartman Richardson Heights Properties LLC (the “Joint Venture”). The Company made an initial capital contribution to the Joint Venture of $1.915 million representing a 10% interest in the Joint Venture. Hartman Short Term Income Properties XIX, Inc. (“Hartman XIX”), the other member of the Joint Venture is a REIT that is managed by affiliates of the Company’s manager and real property manager. Hartman XIX has made capital contributions totaling $17.235 million to the Joint Venture representing a 90% interest therein. Our equity in earnings of the Joint Venture was $1,719 for the period from December 28, 2010 to December 31, 2010.

The Company has incurred certain expenses in connection with organizing the Company and registering to sell common shares. These costs principally relate to professional and filing fees. As of December 31, 2010, such costs totaled $433,566 which have been expensed as incurred since February 5, 2009, date of inception, $101,580 and $331,986 for the year ended December 31, 2010 and for the period from February 5, 2009 (date of inception) through December 31, 2009, respectively.

We are dependent on the Advisor and the Dealer Manager for certain services that are essential to the Company, including the sale of the Company’s shares of common stock and preferred stock available for issue; the identification, evaluation, negotiation, purchase and disposition of properties’, management of the daily operations of the Company’s real estate portfolio, and other general and administrative responsibilities. In the event that these companies are unable to provide the respective services, we will be required to obtain such services from other providers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Subscription proceeds were held in an escrow account until we had received and accepted subscriptions to purchase at least $2.0 million of shares of common stock, which the Company reached in December 2010. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had issued 274,966 shares of common stock in its public offering, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $2,474,178. The Company declared a dividend distribution payable as of December 31, 2010 to shareholders of record as of that date. The total initial dividend distribution was $1,467 of which $935 was payable in cash and $532 was paid by issuance of 56.5705 shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan.

Our principal demands for funds will be for real estate and real estate-related acquisitions, for the payment of operating expenses and distributions, and for the payment of interest on our outstanding indebtedness. Generally, we expect to meet cash needs for items other than acquisitions from our cash flow from operations, and we expect to meet cash needs for acquisitions from the net proceeds of this offering and from financings.

There may be a delay between the sale of our shares and the purchase of properties or other investments, which could result in a delay in our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. Some or all of our distributions will be paid from other sources, such as from the proceeds of this offerings, cash advances to us by our advisor, cash resulting from a waiver of asset management fees and borrowings secured by our assets in anticipation of future operating cash flow until such time as we have sufficient cash flow from operations to fund fully the payment of distributions. We expect to have little, if any, cash flow from operations available for distribution until we make substantial investments and currently have no plans regarding when distributions will commence. In addition, to the extent our investments are in development or redevelopment projects or in properties that have significant capital requirements, our ability to make distributions may be negatively impacted, especially during our early periods of operation.

We intend to borrow money to acquire properties and make other investments. There is no limitation on the amount we may invest in any single property or other asset or on the amount we can borrow for the purchase of any individual property or other investment. We do not expect that the maximum amount of our indebtedness will exceed 300% of our “net assets” (as defined by the NASAA REIT Guidelines) as of the date of any borrowing; however, we may exceed that limit if approved by a majority of our independent directors and if disclosed to the stockholders in the next quarterly report along with the explanation for such excess borrowings. Our board of directors has adopted a policy to generally limit our aggregate borrowings to approximately 50% of the aggregate value of our assets unless substantial justification exists that borrowing a greater amount is in our best interests. Our policy limitation, however, does not apply to individual real estate assets and only will apply once we have ceased raising capital under this or any subsequent offering and invested substantially all of our capital. As a result, we expect to borrow more than 50% of the contract purchase price of each real estate asset we acquire to the extent our board of directors determines that borrowing these amounts is prudent. Our policy of limiting the aggregate debt to equity ratio to 50% relates primarily to mortgage loans and other debt that will be secured by our properties. The NASAA guideline limitation of 300% of our net assets includes secured and unsecured indebtedness that we may issue. We do not anticipate issuing significant amounts of unsecured and therefore we intend to limit the balance of our borrowings to 50% of the purchase prices, in the aggregate, of our property portfolio.

Our advisor may, but is not required to, establish capital reserves from gross offering proceeds, out of cash flow generated by operating properties and other investments or out of non-liquidating net sale proceeds from the sale of our properties and other investments. Capital reserves are typically utilized for non-operating expenses such as tenant improvements, leasing commissions and major capital expenditures. Alternatively, a lender may require its own formula for escrow of capital reserves.

Potential future sources of capital include proceeds from secured or unsecured financings from banks or other lenders, proceeds from the sale of properties and undistributed funds from operations. If necessary, we may use financings or other sources of capital in the event of unforeseen significant capital expenditures.

Contractual Obligations

Our board of directors has approved our entering into the Advisory Agreement, the Property Management Agreement, the Dealer Management Agreement and Operating Agreement of the Joint Venture.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2010, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting standards if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanied financial statements. (See note to financial statements disclosed in Item 8 to this annual report.)

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

We will be exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of long-term debt used to acquire properties and make loans and other permitted investments. Our interest rate risk management objectives will be to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we expect to borrow primarily at fixed rates or variable rates with the lowest margins available and, in some cases, with the ability to convert variable rates to fixed rates. With regard to variable rate financing, we will assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

The information required by this Item 8 is incorporated by reference to our Financial Statements beginning on page F-1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In connection with the preparation of this Form 10-K, as of December 31, 2010, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. In performing this evaluation, management reviewed the selection, application and monitoring of our historical accounting policies. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that as of December 31, 2010, these disclosure controls and procedures were effective and designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis. In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation under the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s management report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report on internal control over financial reporting in this Annual Report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes during the Company’s quarter ended December 31, 2010, in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financing reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Hartman Short Term Income Properties XX, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Hartman Short Term Income Properties XX, Inc. (the “Company”), a development stage company as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related statements of operations, shareholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year ended December, 31, 2010, for the period from February 5, 2009 (date of inception) to December 31, 2009 and for the period from February 5, 2009 (date of inception) to December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to the above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hartman Short Term Income Properties XX, Inc. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2010, for the period from February 5, 2009 (date of inception) to December 31, 2009 and for the period from February 5, 2009 (date of inception) to December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 have been prepared by us in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

We have reclassified certain prior fiscal year amounts in the accompanying financial statements in order to be consistent with the current fiscal year presentation, including changes resulting from the reclassification of organization and offering costs separate from general and administrative expenses. These reclassifications had no effect on net income or equity.

Development Stage Entity

The Company is considered to be a development stage entity, as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 915. The Company has generated no revenues to date from its core business, has incurred significant expenses and has sustained recurring losses. Consequently, its operations are subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. For the period from February 5, 2009 (date of inception) through December 31, 2010, the Company has accumulated losses of $579,177.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.

Investment in Real Estate Assets

The Company makes subjective assessments as to the useful lives of depreciable assets. The Company considers the period of future benefit of the asset to determine the appropriate useful lives. These assessments, which are based on estimates, have a direct impact on net income. The estimated useful lives of assets by class are generally as follows:

Buildings		40 years
Tenant improvements		Lesser of useful life or lease term
Intangible lease assets		Lesser of useful life or lease term

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture

Allocation of Purchase Price of Acquired Assets

Upon the acquisition of real properties, it is the Company’s policy to allocate the purchase price of properties to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land and buildings, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and leasehold improvements and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values. The Company utilizes internal valuation methods to determine the fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and buildings).

The fair values of above-market and below-market in-place lease values, including below-market renewal options for which renewal has been determined to be reasonably assured, are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (a) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (b) an estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases and below-market renewal options, which is generally obtained from independent appraisals, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The above-market and below-market lease and renewal option values are capitalized as intangible lease assets or liabilities and amortized as an adjustment of rental income over the remaining expected terms of the respective leases.

The fair values of in-place leases include direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, opportunity costs associated with lost rentals which are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease, and tenant relationships. Direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant include commissions, tenant improvements, and other direct costs and are estimated based on independent appraisals and management’s consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. These direct costs are included in intangible lease assets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The value of opportunity costs is calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease. Customer relationships are valued based on expected renewal of a lease or the likelihood of obtaining a particular tenant for other locations. These intangibles will be included in intangible lease assets in the balance sheet and are amortized to expense over the remaining term of the respective leases.

The determination of the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired requires the use of significant assumptions with regard to the current market rental rates, rental growth rates, discount rates and other variables. The use of inappropriate estimates would result in an incorrect assessment of the purchase price allocations, which could impact the amount of the Company’s reported net income.

Valuation of Real Estate Assets

The Company will continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of real estate and related intangible assets may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present that indicate that the carrying amounts of real estate and related intangible assets may not be recoverable, management assesses the recoverability of the assets by determining whether the carrying value of the assets will be recovered through the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. In the event that such expected undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, the Company will adjust the real estate and related intangible assets to the fair value and recognize an impairment loss.

Projections of expected future cash flows require management to estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, discount rates, the number of months it takes to release the property and the number of years the property is held for investment. The use of inappropriate assumptions in the future cash flow analysis would result in an incorrect assessment of the property’s future cash flow and fair value and could result in the overstatement of the carrying value of our real estate and related intangible assets and net income.

Organization and Offering Costs

Selling commissions in connection with the offering are recorded and charged to additional paid-in-capital. Organizational and offering costs will be reimbursed by the Advisor as set forth below in the “Costs of Formation and Fees to Related Parties” section.

Revenue Recognition

Upon the acquisition of real estate, certain properties will have leases where minimum rent payments increase during the term of the lease. The Company will record rental revenue for the full term of each lease on a straight-line basis. When the Company acquires a property, the term of existing leases is considered to commence as of the acquisition date for the purposes of this calculation. In accordance with ASC 605-10-S99, Revenue Recognition, the Company will defer the recognition of contingent rental income, such as percentage rents, until the specific target that triggers the contingent rental income is achieved. Cost recoveries from tenants are included in tenant reimbursement income in the period the related costs are incurred.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company will follow ASC 718- Compensation- Stock Compensation with regard to issuance of stock in payment of services. ASC 718 covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. ASC 718 requires that compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. The cost is measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. The Company plans to pay a portion of directors’ compensation with restricted common stock. The Company has recorded stock based compensation for non-employee directors of $60,000 for the issuance of 6,000 shares of restricted common stock at the current issue price of $10.00 per share.

Income Taxes

The Company expects to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of the Company’s annual REIT taxable income to stockholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that it distributes as dividends to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost, unless the Internal Revenue Service grants the Company relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially and adversely affect the Company’s net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. However, the Company believes that it is organized and will operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT.

Loss Per Share

The computations of basic and diluted loss per common share are based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive securities. The Company’s potentially dilutive securities include preferred shares that are convertible into the Company’s common stock. As of December 31, 2010, there were no shares issuable in connection with these potentially dilutive securities. These potentially dilutive securities were disregarded in the computations of diluted net loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 because no shares are issuable and inclusion of such potentially dilutive securities would have been anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-28—When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. This update provides amendments to ASC Topic 350—Intangibles, Goodwill and Other that requires an entity to perform Step 2 impairment test even if a reporting unit has zero or negative carrying amount. Step 1 tests whether the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. Previously reporting units with zero or negative carrying value passed Step 1 because the fair value was generally greater than zero. Step 2 requires impairment testing and impairment valuation be calculated in between annual tests if an event or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill has been impaired. ASU 2010-28 is effective beginning January 1, 2011. As a result of this standard, goodwill impairments may be reported sooner than under current practice. We do not expect ASU 2010-28 to have any impact on our financial statements.

ASU No. 2010-13 was issued in April 2010, and will clarify the classification of an employee share based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the underlying security trades. This ASU will be effective for the first fiscal quarter beginning after December 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-13 to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (the “ASU”) No. 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash (“ASU No. 2010-01”). This ASU clarifies that when the stock portion of a distribution allows stockholders to elect to receive cash or stock with a potential limitation on the total amount of cash that all stockholders can elect to receive in the aggregate, the distribution would be considered a share issuance as opposed to a stock dividend and the share issuance would be reflected in earnings per share prospectively. ASU No. 2010-01 is effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009 and should be applied on a retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-01 has no impact on our financial statements.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.

Note 3 — Investments

On December 28, 2010, the Company entered into the operating agreement of Hartman Richardson Heights Properties LLC (the “Joint Venture”). The Company made an initial capital contribution to the Joint Venture of $1.915 million representing a 10% interest in the Joint Venture. Hartman Short Term Income Properties XIX, Inc. (“Hartman XIX”), the other member of the Joint Venture is a REIT that is managed by affiliates of the Company’s manager and real property manager. Hartman XIX has made capital contributions totaling $17.235 million to the Joint Venture representing a 90% interest therein. The Company’s board of directors unanimously approved the Company’s entering into the Joint Venture.

On December 28, 2010, the Joint Venture acquired a retail shopping center located in Richardson, Texas for an aggregate purchase price of $19.15 million on an all cash basis from the seller, LNR Partners, LLC. The property is located at 100 South Central Expressway, Richardson, Texas and commonly known as Richardson Heights Shopping Center. The property consists of approximately 201,000 square feet and is 57.6% occupied at the acquisition date. Richardson is a suburb of Dallas, Texas. The Company’s equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities from its investment in Richardson Heights Shopping Center was $1,719 at December 31, 2010.

Note 4 — Shareholders’ Equity and Related Party Transactions

The Company initially issued 100 shares of the Company’s common stock to Hartman XX Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”) for $1,000. Holdings is a Texas corporation wholly owned by Allen R. Hartman. Holdings was formed solely for the purpose of facilitating the organization and offering of the initial offering of the Company’s shares. Effective October 15, 2009 the Company issued an additional 18,900 shares to Holdings for $189,000. Holdings contributed a related party liability in the amount of $189,000 to the Company in exchange for the issuance of an additional 18,900 common shares of the Company. The transaction resulted in a total of 19,000 common shares issued since inception for total consideration of $190,000.

The Company issued the Advisor, Hartman Advisors LLC, 1,000 shares of non-voting convertible preferred stock for $100. Effective October 15, 2009 the Company received additional consideration of $9,900 with respect to the non-voting convertible preferred stock. The Advisor contributed a related party liability in the amount of $9,900 to the Company as donated capital related to the convertible common stock previously issued by the Company to the Advisor. Accordingly, the overall issue price for the 1,000 convertible preferred shares is $10,000 or $10 per share. Upon the terms described below, these shares may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock, resulting in dilution of the stockholders’ interest in the Company.

Hartman Advisors LLC, is a Texas limited liability company owned 70% by Allen R. Hartman individually and 30% by the Property Manager. The Property Manager is a wholly owned subsidiary of Hartman Income REIT Management, LLC, which is wholly owned by Hartman Income REIT of which Allen R. Hartman is the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Trustees.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company had accepted investor’s subscriptions for, and issued, 274,966 shares of the Company’s common stock in its public offering, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $2,474,178. The Company also received an additional $100,000 from the sale of common stock which has not yet been issued as of December 31, 2010. The Company declared a dividend distribution payable as of December 31, 2010 to shareholders of record as of that date. The total initial dividend distribution was $1,467 of which $935 was payable in cash and $532 was paid by issuance of 56.5705 shares of common stock under the dividend reinvestment plan.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2010

Common Stock Issuable Upon Conversion of Convertible Stock - The convertible preferred stock will convert to shares of common stock if (1) the Company has made total distributions on then outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the issue price of those shares plus a 6% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on the issue price of those outstanding shares, (2) the Company lists its common stock for trading on a national securities exchange if the sum of prior distributions on then outstanding shares of our common stock plus the aggregate market value of our common stock (based on the 30-day average closing price) meets the same 6% performance threshold, or (3) the Company’s advisory agreement with Hartman Advisors, LLC expires without renewal or is terminated (other than because of a material breach by our advisor), and at the time of such expiration or termination the Company is deemed to have met the foregoing 6% performance threshold based on the Company’s enterprise value and prior distributions and, at or subsequent to the expiration or termination, the shareholders actually realize such level of performance upon listing or through total distributions. In general, the convertible stock will convert into shares of common stock with a value equal to 15% of the excess of the Company’s enterprise value plus the aggregate value of distributions paid to date on then outstanding shares of common stock over the aggregate issue price of those outstanding shares plus a 6% cumulative, non-compounded, annual return on the issue price of those outstanding shares. With respect to conversion in connection with the termination of the advisory agreement, this calculation is made at the time of termination even though the actual conversion may occur later, or not at all.

Costs of Formation and Fees to Related Parties - The Company is dependent upon Hartman XX Holdings, Inc., its affiliates, the Advisor and the Property Manager (collectively, the “Affiliates”) for financial support. The Affiliates have advanced necessary financial support, including the payments of various organizational and offering expenses made on behalf of the Company during the Minimum Offering period.

As of December 31, 2010 the Company had a balance due to an affiliated entity, the Property Manager of $355,739. The Property Manager has paid various organization and offering expenses on behalf of the Company. The Advisor will reimburse Hartman Income REIT Management, Inc., for expenses paid on behalf of the Company from proceeds of the offering. The Company will reimburse the Property Manager up to 1.5% of gross offering proceeds for organization and offering expenses.

The Company owes the Advisor $47,875 for acquisition fees which is included in the balance due to affiliates. These fees are generally defined as fees paid by any party to any person in connection with identifying, reviewing, evaluating, investing in, and the purchase, development or construction of properties, or the making or investing in loans or other real estate-related investments. The Company agreed to pay the Advisor 2.5% of the funds paid and/or budgeted in respect of the purchase, development, construction or improvement of each asset acquired.

The Company will pay the Dealer Manager up to 7.0% of the gross proceeds of the primary offering for any selling commissions on sales of shares from participating retail broker-dealers, except those issued under the distribution reinvestment plan. The Company will also pay the Dealer manager up to 2.5% of its dealer manager fees to participating broker-dealers. At December 31, 2010, the Company owed the Dealer Manager $10,850 for accrued selling commissions.

Distributions - On December 17, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors also authorized the payment of cash distributions to the Company’s shareholders, contingent upon the acquisition of the joint venture interest. Distributions will (i) accrue daily to the Company’s shareholders of record as of the close of business each day commencing one day following the close of the acquisition of the joint venture interest and the property acquisition by the joint venture, (ii) be payable in cumulative amounts on or before the 20th day of each calendar month and (iii) be calculated at a rate of $0.001918 per share of common stock per day, a rate which, if paid each day over a 365-day period, is equivalent to a 7.0% annualized distribution rate based on a purchase price of $10.00 per share of common stock.

The Company declared a dividend as of December 31, 2010. The cash distribution will be $935 and will issue $532 (56.5705 shares of distribution reinvestment plan shares) payable in January 2011.
