**LETTER FROM OUR EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN**

July 10, 2025

Dear Fellow Stockholder:

As a result of recent favorable developments, we are changing the meeting date of the 2025 Annual Meeting of Silver Star Properties REIT, Inc. to Friday, August 29, 2025.

The previously noticed meeting date was chosen in order to comply with the January 2025 order of the Maryland court which stated that the annual meeting must be held on or before July 21, 2025. Based upon our motion to reconsider the date requirement, the Maryland court has recently determined that it would be inequitable to the shareholders to uphold the previously ordered meeting date and has accordingly modified the order to establish October 21, 2025, as the outside date for the annual meeting. Specifically, Judge Anthony F. Vittoria found that "in light of the current circumstances, requiring the annual meeting on or before July 21, 2025, would be inequitable in that it would frustrate one of the primary goals that the court was seeking to protect specifically the right of shareholders to vote on the future of the company."

For the benefit of the shareholders, the Company will now be able to provide you with the audited financial statements for the years ending December 31, 2023, and 2024, and such other financial statements as the proxy rules require.

This is good news for shareholders. Your Board of Directors is fully committed to taking all reasonable and advisable steps to ensure that all shareholders have the opportunity to vote and that the results of this annual meeting represent the right of the shareholders to vote for the future of the Company. The Board of Directors supports the opinion of Judge Vittoria and will take all actions to provide you with the opportunity to vote with full information. The Board of Directors would like all shareholders to vote, and they should ignore any attempt to discourage their vote or to create any confusion about voting.

The meeting will be held on Friday, August 29, 2025, at 10:00 A.M. Central Time. The meeting will be completely virtual and conducted via live audio webcast to enable our stockholders to participate from any location around the world that is convenient to them.

If you plan to attend the meeting, please register at <u>https://web.viewproxy.com/silverstarreit/2025</u> no later than August 28, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. Central Time. After registering, you will receive a meeting invitation and password by e-mail with your unique link to join the meeting. Stockholders will be able to listen, vote and submit questions during the virtual meeting. The record date for the annual meeting is unchanged. Holders of our common stock as of June 20, 2025, are entitled to notice and to vote at the meeting. IF YOU HAVE ALREADY VOTED, NO FURTHER ACTION ON YOUR PART IS REQUIRED.

The "e-proxy" rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission allow us to furnish proxy materials to our stockholders via the Internet. The Company's Definitive Proxy Statement on Form 14A (the "Proxy Statement") was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 29, 2025. A Proxy Statement Supplement was filed on June 20, 2025.

------

![image.jpg](image.jpg)

**ALL SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD READ THE COMPANY'S DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT AND PROXY STATEMENT SUPPLEMENT EACH OF WHICH CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION.**

Judge Vittoria in exercising his equitable jurisdiction also provided in his earlier opinion that: "At that annual meeting, the stockholders must be given a binary choice between liquidation of Silver Star's assets on the one hand and deferring liquidation for the purpose of executing an alternate strategy on the other. The choice of garnering the majority of shares at the meeting shall prevail. There must be a quorum of shares for the vote to be valid." Anything sent to you to the contrary should be ignored.

In a Schedule 14A filed by Allen Hartman's group, the following statements were made – "They do not need your vote or information." Later, it stated – "You do not need to attend their proxy meeting."

These recent efforts to create an unfair balance by attempting to reduce the quorum is not, in any way, what Judge Vittoria intended and represents exactly what Hartman said he would not do.

Silver Star and your Board of Directors encourage all shareholders to vote, including shareholders voting for the other side. Additionally, Silver Star and your Board of Directors encourage all shareholders to attend the annual meeting if they have the desire and the time or vote by sending in their proxy.

Your vote is very important. Regardless of the number of shares you own; it is important that your shares be represented at the 2025 Annual Meeting. You may authorize a proxy to vote your shares once you have received your Proxy Card by following the instructions provided. **ACCORDINGLY, WHETHER OR NOT YOU ATTEND THE 2025 ANNUAL MEETING, I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO SUBMIT YOUR PROXY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AFTER YOUR REVIEW OF THE COMPANY'S DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT.** This will not prevent you from voting during the 2025 Annual Meeting but will ensure that your vote will be counted if you are unable to attend the 2025 Annual Meeting.

Thank you for your continued support of Silver Star.

Cordially,

Gerald W. Haddock

Executive Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer
