The persons identified on the cover page hereto (collectively, the "Hartman Group") on June 3, 2025 filed a definitive proxy statement and an accompanying BLUE universal proxy card with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") to be used to solicit votes for, among other matters, (i) the election of directors that the Hartman Group has nominated for election at the next annual meeting of stockholders of Silver Star Properties REIT, Inc. (the "Company") and (ii) the rejection of the Company's alternate strategy proposal, and in favor of liquidating the Company's assets in an orderly manner in accordance with the terms of its articles of incorporation and returning capital to stockholders.

On July 16, 2025, the Hartman Group distributed the following letter to shareholders:

**DO NOT PANIC VOTE – Your Vote Is Secure**

**July 16, 2025**

Dear Shareholders,

You may have received a letter from the Silver Star Board filled with fearmongering and misinformation. Let's set the record straight.

The current Board is trying to distract you from the real issues. Instead of addressing their failures, they are attacking Al Hartman and deliberately trying to confuse shareholders.

Here's the truth:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Hartman is NOT trying to block a quorum or "win by default."** That's a false narrative to scare you.
Voting BLUE simply ensures your shares are counted and your voice is heard.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **They are trying to trick you into canceling your BLUE vote.** They know the last vote cast is the only one that counts.
By pressuring you to "revote" WHITE, they can erase your support for change.

✅ **THE LAST VOTE COUNTS. If you have already voted on the BLUE card, do NOT vote on the WHITE Silver Star proxy card. Voting WHITE now will void your BLUE vote.**

✅ **If you haven't voted yet, vote BLUE today to protect your investment.**

The current Board wants to stay in power at any cost, even if it means misleading you. Don't let their tactics steal your voice or your future.

Thank you for your trust and support as we work to restore value and integrity.

See the attached proxy letter for more details. **[Click here to read the full letter](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/831616/000110465925056822/tm2517282d1_ex99-1.htm).**

If you have not voted, **call us directly at (619) 664-4780 to vote for the return of your capital or vote the blue proxy from our online e-mail.** 

If you have any questions, contact us at <u>IR@hartman-investments.com.</u>

Thank you for standing with us.

Sincerely,

Al Hartman

The Hartman Shareholder Alliance Team
