Item 8.01 Other Events.
 
August 2011 Distributions
 
With the authorization of its board of directors, Hines REIT declared distributions for the month of August 2011. These distributions will be calculated based on shareholders of record each day during the month of August 2011 in an amount equal to $0.00138082 per share, per day and will be paid in October 2011 in cash or reinvested in stock for those participating in Hines REIT's dividend reinvestment plan. Of the amount described above, $0.00041425 of the per share, per day dividend will be designated by the Company as a special distribution which will be a return of a portion of the shareholders’ invested capital  and, as such, will reduce their remaining investment in the Company.  The special distribution represents a portion of the profits from sales of investment property.  The above designations of a portion of the distribution as a special distribution will not impact the tax treatment of the distributions to our shareholders.
