INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT
 
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
Wells Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc.
Atlanta, Georgia
 
We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues over certain operating expenses (the "Statement") of the Market Square Buildings (the “Buildings”) for the year ended December 31, 2010. This statement is the responsibility of the Buildings' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this statement based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with U.S. generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the Statement. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall Statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
The accompanying statement of revenues over certain operating expenses was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, as described in Note 2, and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the Buildings' revenues and expenses.
 
In our opinion, the statement of revenues over certain operating expenses referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues over certain operating expenses as described in Note 2 of the Statement for the year ended December 31, 2010 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

1. Description of Real Estate Property Acquired
On March 7, 2011, Wells Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. ("Wells REIT II"), through a wholly owned subsidiary, acquired two office buildings containing approximately 679,710 rentable square feet known as the Market Square Buildings (the “Buildings”) for approximately $615.0 million, net of $6.0 million of adjustments. The acquisition was funded with $12.9 million of cash on hand, $300.0 million drawn on a $500.0 million revolving credit facility entered into on May 7, 2010 (the “JPMorgan Chase Credit Facility”), and $300.0 million drawn on a newly originated, senior unsecured bridge facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “JPMorgan Chase Bridge Facility”). The Buildings were built in 1990 and are located on approximately 2.2 acres of land located in Washington D.C. The Buildings were purchased from Avenue Associates Limited Partnership, a District of Columbia limited partnership, which is not affiliated with Wells REIT II. Wells REIT II is a Maryland corporation that engages in the acquisition and ownership of commercial real estate properties throughout the United States. Wells REIT II was incorporated on July 3, 2003, and has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes.
 
2. Basis of Accounting
 
The accompanying statement of revenues over certain operating expenses is presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for real estate properties acquired. Accordingly, the statements exclude certain historical expenses that are not comparable to the proposed future operations of the property such as certain ancillary income, amortization, depreciation, interest, and corporate expenses. Therefore, the statement will not be comparable to the statements of operations of the Buildings after acquisition by Wells REIT II.
 
3. Significant Accounting Policies    
 
Revenues
 
Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases. The excess of rental income recognized over the amounts due under the lease for a specific period is recorded as a receivable, which will fully reverse over the lease term. The adjustment to the straight-line receivable in 2010 increased rental revenue by approximately $59,259 for the year.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
4. Description of Leasing Arrangements
The Buildings are 96.2% leased to 41 tenants, including Fulbright and Jaworski (approximately 18.8%), Shearman and Sterling (approximately 16.6%), and Edison Electric Institute (approximately 11.3%).
 
Fulbright and Jaworski is one of the largest law firms in the United States with nearly 900 lawyers and more than 60 integrated practice areas. There are sixteen Fulbright offices world-wide, with international locations in Beijing, London, Munich, Hong Kong, Dubai and Riyadha. Fulbright and Jaworski is a full-service international law firm, which serves the needs of businesses, governments, non-profit organizations and individual clients around the world. The Fulbright and Jaworski lease expires in June 2015. Fulbright and Jaworski has the right to extend the initial term of its lease for one additional ten-year period at ninety-five percent of the then-current market rate.

4. Description of Leasing Arrangements - continued
 
Shearman and Sterling, a law firm, has been in business for over 135 years and has over 900 employees located in 20 countries. Shearman and Sterling advises many of the world's leading corporations and financial institutions, governments and governmental organizations. Areas of practice within Shearman and Sterling include Antitrust, Bankruptcy, Corporate Governance, Environmental, Finance, Intellectual Property, Litigation, Mergers & Acquisitions, Real Estate and Tax. The Shearman and Sterling lease expires in March 2016. Shearman and Sterling has the right to extend the initial term of its lease for one ten-year period at the then-current market rate.
 
The Edison Electric Institute (“EEI”) is the association of U.S. shareholder-owned electric companies. EEI was organized in 1833 and its members serve 95 percent of the ultimate customers in the shareholder-owned segment of the industry and represent approximately 70 percent of the U.S. electric power industry. EEI provides public policy leadership in critical industry data, market opportunities, strategic business intelligence, conferences and forums and products and services. The EEI lease expires in June 2015. EEI has the right to extend the initial term of its lease for two additional five-year periods at the then-current market rate.

Historical financial information is derived from Wells Real Estate Investment Trust II's annual report filed on Form 10-K as of December 31, 2010.
(b)
Reflects the purchase price of the assets and liabilities obtained by Wells REIT II in connection with the respective acquisition, net of any purchase price adjustments.
(c)
Represents cash on hand that was used to partially fund the acquisition of the Buildings.
(d)
Represents amount drawn under a six-month, unsecured loan with JPMorgan Chase Bank (the “JPMorgan Chase Bridge Loan”). Under the JPMorgan Chase Bridge Loan, interest is incurred based on, at the Wells REIT II's option, LIBOR for one-, two-, or three-month periods, plus an applicable margin of 2.25% (the “Bridge LIBOR Rate”), or at an alternate base rate, plus an applicable margin of 1.25% (the “Bridge Base Rate”). Should any unpaid principal remain outstanding on the JPMorgan Chase Bridge Facility as of June 5, 2011, Wells REIT II would incur an additional duration fee equal to 0.25% of the principal outstanding on the JPMorgan Chase Bridge Facility at that time. Wells REIT II is required to repay outstanding principal and accrued interest six months after the respective funding dates. All such borrowings shall be prepaid with (a) 100% of the net cash proceeds of all asset sales or other dispositions of properties, (b) 100% of the net cash proceeds of issuances, offerings, or placements of debt obligations, and (c) 100% of the net cash proceeds of issuances of equity securities.
(e)
Represents amount drawn under Wells REIT II's $500.0 million, three-year unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent (the “JPMorgan Chase Credit Facility”).

The JPMorgan Chase Credit Facility provides for interest to be incurred based on, at the option of Wells REIT II, LIBOR for one-, two-, three-, or six-month periods, plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.60% to 3.40% (the “LIBOR Rate”), or at an alternate base rate, plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.60% to 2.40% (the “Base Rate”). The margin component of the LIBOR Rate and the Base Rate is determined based on Wells REIT II’s corporate credit rating, as long as it has such a rating, or on Wells REIT II’s leverage ratio, as defined, if it does not have a corporate credit rating. Additionally, Wells REIT II will incur a facility fee on the aggregate revolving commitment ranging from 0.40% to 0.60% per annum, which is also determined based on Wells REIT II’s corporate credit rating, as long as it has such a rating, or on its leverage ratio, if it does not have a corporate credit rating.
