Explanation of Responses:

1. This number includes 139,255 common shares of beneficial interest in the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares"), owned by Hartman Partnership, L.P. (formerly known as Hartman Partnership, Inc.), which is wholly-owned by Mr. Hartman and his wholly-owned affiliate. Upon conversion of all outstanding limited partnership interests ("OP Units") in Hartman REIT Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delware limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), into Shares, Mr. Hartman would own 1,788,382.42 Shares, including Shares issuable upon conversion of 861,976.37 OP Units owned by Houston R.E. Income Properties XIV, L.P. ("Houston XIV"), 342,428.96 OP Units held by Hartman Partnership, L.P., 49,418.39 OP Units held by Hartman Partnership XII, L.P. ("Hartman XII") and 33.00 OP Units held by Hartman Partnership XV, LLC ("Hartman XV"). Mr. Hartman and his wholly-owned affiliate own Hartman XII and Hartman XV. Op Units are convertible into Shares on a one-for-one basis.

2. Mr. Hartman does not own any limited partnership interests in Houston XIV. However, Mr. Hartman owns 100% of the equity of the general partner of Houston XIV. As a result, Mr. Hartman may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the OP Units held by Houston XIV and/or 861,976.39 Shares into which these OP Units are convertible. Mr. Hartman disclaims beneficial ownership of these OP Units and all Shares into which such OP Units are convertible.
