Exhibit 10.2
ESCROW AGREEMENT
THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of this 2nd day of March, 2016 by and among CNL Securities Corp., a Florida corporation (the “Dealer Manager”), CNL Healthcare Properties II, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent, a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America (the “Escrow Agent”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Company proposes to offer and sell shares of Class A, Class T and Class I common stock (the “Shares”), on a best-efforts basis, for at least $2.0 million and up to $1.75 billion of gross offering proceeds (excluding the shares of its Class A, Class T and Class I common stock to be offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan), at an initial purchase price of up to $11.08 per Class A share, $10.50 per Class T share and $10.00 per Class I share (the “Offering”) to investors pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-206017), as amended from time to time (the “Offering Document”).
WHEREAS, the Dealer Manager will be engaged by the Company to offer and sell the Shares on a best efforts basis through a network of participating broker-dealers and registered investment advisors (the “Dealers”).
WHEREAS, the Company has agreed that the subscription price paid by subscribers for shares will be refunded to such subscribers if at least $2.0 million of gross offering proceeds, including proceeds from persons who are affiliated with the Company, its sponsors or CHP II Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) and excluding proceeds from Pennsylvania Subscribers and Washington Subscribers (each as defined below) (such amount, the “Minimum Offering”) has not been raised within one year from the date the Offering Document becomes effective with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Closing Date”).
WHEREAS, the Dealer Manager and the Company desire to establish an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) as further described herein, in which funds received from subscribers will, except as otherwise specified herein, be deposited and the Company desires that the Escrow Agent act as escrow agent to the Escrow Account and Escrow Agent is willing to act in such capacity.
WHEREAS, deposits received from residents of the State of Pennsylvania (“Pennsylvania Subscribers”) and deposits received from residents of the State of Washington (“Washington Subscribers”) will remain in the Escrow Account until the conditions of Sections 3 and 4, respectively, have been met.
WHEREAS, the Escrow Agent has engaged DST Systems, Inc. (the “Processing Agent”), to examine for “good order” subscriptions and to act as record keeper, maintaining on behalf of the Escrow Agent the ownership records for the Escrow Account. In so acting, the Processing Agent shall be acting solely in the capacity of agent for the Escrow Agent and not in any capacity on behalf of the Company or the Dealer Manager.
WHEREAS, in order to subscribe for Shares during the Escrow Period (as defined below), a subscriber must deliver the full amount of the purchase price for the Shares: (i) by check made payable to the order of “UMB Bank, N.A., Escrow Agent for CNL Healthcare Properties II” in U.S. dollars; or (ii) by draft or wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars, made payable as provided in Section 12(b) (collectively, the “Payment Instruments”).
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, the Dealer Manager, the Company and Escrow Agent agree to the terms of this Agreement as follows:
1.Establishment of Escrow Account; Escrow Period. On or prior to the commencement of the offering of Shares pursuant to the Offering Document, the Company shall establish the Escrow Account with the Escrow Agent, which shall be entitled “UMB Bank, N.A., as Escrow Agent for CNL Healthcare Properties II, Inc.” This Agreement shall be effective on the date on which the Offering Document becomes effective. Except as otherwise set forth herein for, Pennsylvania Subscribers and Washington Subscribers, the “Escrow Period” shall commence upon the effectiveness of this Agreement and shall continue until the earlier of: (a) the date upon which the Escrow Agent receives confirmation from the Company and the Dealer Manager that the Company has raised the Minimum Offering and that the Company desires to break escrow; (b) the Closing Date; or (c) the termination of the Offering by the Company prior to the receipt of the Minimum Offering.
2.Operation of the Escrow.
(a)Deposits in the Escrow Account. During the Escrow Period, persons subscribing to purchase Shares will be instructed by the Company, the Dealer Manager and the Dealers to make Payment Instruments for subscriptions payable to the order of “UMB Bank, N.A., Escrow Agent for CNL Healthcare Properties II, Inc.” or any variation thereof permitting deposit in the Escrow Account if accompanied by a corresponding subscription agreement. Completed subscription agreements and checks in payment for the purchase price for the Shares shall be remitted by the broker dealers or registered investment advisors, as applicable, on behalf of persons subscribing to purchase shares directly to the Processing Agent at the address designated for the receipt of such agreements and funds; and drafts or wires shall be transmitted directly to the Escrow Account. The Processing Agent will promptly deliver all monies received in good order from subscribers (or from the Dealer Manager or other Dealers transmitting monies and subscriptions from subscribers) for the payment of Shares to the Escrow Agent for deposit in the Escrow Account no later than the end of the business day on which such monies are received by the Processing Agent. Completed subscription agreements and checks shall be delivered by the Dealer to the Processing Agent no later than the close of business on the first business day following their receipt by the Dealer; provided, however, if the Dealer receives subscription agreements and checks at a branch office and final supervisory review is conducted at a different location (the “Final Review Office”), then the branch office shall transmit the subscription agreements and checks to the Final Review Office by the close of business on the first business day following their receipt by the branch office and the Final Review Office shall review the subscription agreements and check to ensure their proper execution and form and, if they are acceptable, deliver the subscription agreements and the funds to the Processing Agent by the close of business on the first
2
business day after their receipt by the Final Review Office. The Escrow Agent hereby agrees to maintain the funds contributed by Pennsylvania Subscribers and Washington Subscribers in a manner in which they may be separately accounted for by the records of the Processing Agent so that the requirements of Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement can be met. Deposits shall be held in the Escrow Account until such funds are disbursed in accordance with this Section 2. Prior to disbursement of the funds deposited in the Escrow Account, such funds shall not be subject to claims by creditors of the Company or any of its affiliates. If any of the Payment Instruments are returned to the Escrow Agent for nonpayment prior to receipt of the Break Escrow Affidavit (as described below), the Escrow Agent shall promptly notify the Processing Agent and the Company in writing via mail, email or facsimile of such nonpayment, and the Escrow Agent is authorized to debit the Escrow Account, as applicable in the amount of such returned payment and the Processing Agent shall delete the appropriate account from the records maintained by the Processing Agent. Within 30 days from the date of receipt of each subscription, the Company will determine whether or not the subscription is to be accepted or rejected in whole or in part. Within 10 business days of receipt by the Escrow Agent of written notice from the Company, or as soon thereafter as practicable, that a subscription has been rejected, the Escrow Agent shall transfer by check the funds and all interest, if any, earned thereon, of any subscribers whose subscription has been rejected since the commencement of the Offering. The Escrow Agent agrees to cause the Processing Agent to maintain a written account of each sale, which account shall set forth, among other things, the following information: (i) the subscriber’s name and address; (ii) the subscriber’s social security number; (iii) the number of Shares purchased by such subscriber; and (iv) the amount paid by such subscriber for such Shares. During the Escrow Period neither the Company nor the Dealer Manager will be entitled to any principal funds received into the Escrow Account.
(b)Distribution of the Escrowed Funds. If at any time on or prior to the Closing Date, the Minimum Offering has been raised, then upon the happening of such event, the funds in the Escrow Account shall remain in the Escrow Account until the Escrow Agent receives written direction provided by the Company instructing the Escrow Agent to deliver the principal amount of such escrowed funds as the Company shall direct (other than any funds received from Pennsylvania Subscribers and Washington Subscribers which cannot be released until the conditions of Sections 3 and 4, respectively, have been met); provided, however, that the Escrow Agent shall not disburse the funds of a subscriber, the subscription of which has been rejected or rescinded, if the Escrow Agent has been notified by the Company of such rejection or rescission. An letter from an officer of the Company to the Escrow Agent and Processing Agent stating that at least the Minimum Offering has been timely raised, shall constitute sufficient evidence for the purpose of this Agreement that such event has occurred (the “Break Escrow Letter”). The Break Escrow Letter shall indicate: (i) the date on which the Minimum Offering was raised; and (ii) the actual total number of Shares sold as of such date. The current form of the Break Escrow Letter is attached hereto as Exhibit B. Thereafter, the Escrow Agent shall distribute directly to the Company any interest earned on subscriber’s subscription payments while such payments were held in the Escrow Account. The Company hereby directs the Escrow Agent to provide the Processing Agent with all electronic files and information needed by the Processing Agent to maintain ownership records for the Company’s shares.
3
(c)Return of Escrowed Funds. If the Escrow Agent has not received a Break Escrow Letter on or prior to the Closing Date, the Escrow Agent shall promptly create and dispatch checks and wires drawn on the Escrow Account to return the principal amount of the funds in the Escrow Account, together with any interest thereon, without deduction for fees, penalties or expenses, to the respective subscribers, and the Escrow Agent shall notify the Company and the Dealer Manager of its distribution of the funds. The subscription payments returned to each subscriber (including those, if any, returned to Pennsylvania Subscribers and Washington Subscribers pursuant to Sections 3 and 4, respectively) shall be free and clear of any and all claims of the Company or any of its creditors.
3.Distribution of the Funds from Pennsylvania Subscribers.
(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, disbursements of funds contributed by Pennsylvania Subscribers may only be distributed in compliance with the provisions of this Section 3. Notwithstanding the disbursement of funds from the Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2 hereof, the Escrow Agent will continue to place deposits from Pennsylvania Subscribers into the Escrow Account, until such time as the Company notifies the Escrow Agent in writing that gross offering proceeds (including amounts in the Escrow Account previously disbursed as directed by the Company and the amounts then held in the Escrow Account for Pennsylvania Subscribers) equal or exceed $87,500,000, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall: (i) disburse to the Company, at the Company’s request, the principal amount of the funds from the Pennsylvania Subscribers received by the Escrow Agent for accepted subscriptions; and (ii) disburse directly to the Company any interest earned on Pennsylvania Subscribers’ subscription payments while such payments were held in the Escrow Account. However, the Escrow Agent shall not disburse to the Company those funds of a subscriber, the subscription of which has been rejected or rescinded, if the Escrow Agent has been notified by the Company of such rejection or rescission.
(b)If the Company has not received gross offering proceeds of at least $87,500,000 within 120 days of the date the Company first receives a subscription from a Pennsylvania Subscriber (the “Initial Escrow Period”), the Company, within 10 days of the end of the Initial Escrow Period, shall notify each Pennsylvania Subscriber by certified mail or any other means (whereby receipt of delivery is obtained) of the right of Pennsylvania Subscribers to have their investment returned to them. If, pursuant to such notice, a Pennsylvania Subscriber requests the return of his or her subscription funds within ten (10) days after receipt of the notification (the “Request Period”), the Escrow Agent shall promptly refund, directly to each Pennsylvania Subscriber, the funds deposited in the Escrow Account on behalf of the Pennsylvania Subscriber, and shall disburse directly to the Company any interest earned on each such Pennsylvania Subscribers’ subscription payments while such payments were held in the Escrow Account.
(c)The funds of Pennsylvania Subscribers who do not request the return of their funds within the Request Period shall remain in the Escrow Account for successive 120-day escrow periods (each a “Successive Escrow Period”), each commencing automatically upon the termination of the prior Successive Escrow Period, and the Company and Escrow Agent shall follow the notification and payment procedure set forth in Section 3(b) above with respect to the Initial Escrow Period for each Successive Escrow Period, except that for each Successive Escrow Period, if a Pennsylvania Subscriber requests the return of his
4
or her subscription funds within the Request Period, the Escrow Agent shall promptly refund, directly to such Pennsylvania Subscriber, the funds deposited in the Escrow Account on behalf of the Pennsylvania Subscriber together with their pro rata share of any interest earned thereon commencing with the first day after the Initial Escrow Period. The Company and Escrow Agent shall follow this procedure until the occurrence of the earliest of: (i) the termination of the Offering by the Company prior to the receipt of at least $87,500,000 of gross offering proceeds; (ii) the receipt and acceptance by the Company of gross offering proceeds that equal or exceed $87,500,000 and the disbursement of the funds held in the Escrow Account on the terms specified in this Section 3; or (iii) all funds held in the Escrow Account that were contributed by Pennsylvania Subscribers having been returned to the Pennsylvania Subscribers in accordance with the provisions hereof.
(d)If the Company has not received gross offering proceeds of at least $87,500,000 prior to the termination of the Offering, all funds in the Escrow Account that were contributed by Pennsylvania Subscribers will be promptly returned in full to such Pennsylvania Subscribers, together with their pro rata share of any interest earned thereon pursuant to instructions made by the Company, upon which the Escrow Agent may conclusively rely.
4.Distribution of the Funds from Washington Subscribers.
(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, disbursements of funds contributed by Washington Subscribers may only be distributed in compliance with the provisions of this Section 4. Notwithstanding the disbursement of funds from the Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2 hereof, the Escrow Agent will continue to place deposits from the Washington Subscribers into the Escrow Account, until such time as the Company notifies the Escrow Agent in writing that gross offering proceeds (including amounts in the Escrow Account previously disbursed as directed by the Company and the amounts then held in the Escrow Account for Washington Subscribers) equal or exceed $20,000,000, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall: (i) disburse to the Company, at the Company’s request, the principal amount of the funds from the Washington Subscribers received by the Escrow Agent for accepted subscriptions; and (ii) disburse directly to the Company any interest earned on such subscription payments while such payments were held in the Escrow Account. However, the Escrow Agent shall not disburse those funds of a subscriber, the subscription of which has been rejected or rescinded, if the Escrow Agent has been notified by the Company of such rejection or rescission.
(b)If the Company has not received gross offering proceeds of at least $20,000,000 prior to the termination of the Offering, all funds in the Escrow Account that were contributed by Washington Subscribers will be promptly returned in full to such Washington Subscribers, together with their pro rata share of any interest earned thereon pursuant to instructions made by the Company upon which the Escrow Agent may conclusively rely.
5.Escrowed Funds.
(a)Upon receipt of funds from subscribers to the Offering, the Escrow Agent shall hold such funds in escrow pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. All such funds held in the Escrow Account shall be invested and reinvested in bank accounts or bank money market accounts permitted under Rule 15c2-4 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
5
amended, at the direction of the Company. All funds in the Escrow Account shall at all times be placed in interest-bearing accounts.
(b)The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to sell or redeem any such investment as necessary to make any distributions required under this Agreement and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss resulting from any such sale or redemption.
(c)Income, if any, resulting from the investment of the funds received from subscribers to the Offering shall be distributed according to this Agreement.
(d)The Escrow Agent shall provide to the Company monthly statements (or more frequently as reasonably requested by the Company) on the account balance of the Escrow Account and the activity in the account since the last report.
6.Duties of the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities other than those expressly set forth in this Agreement, and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent is not a party to, or bound by, any other agreement among the other parties hereto, and the Escrow Agent’s duties shall be determined solely by reference to this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to enforce any obligation of any person, other than as provided herein. The Escrow Agent shall be under no liability to anyone by reason of any failure on the part of any party hereto or any maker, endorser or other signatory of any document or any other person to perform such person’s obligations under any such document. The Escrow Agent and Processing Agent shall keep strictly confidential all information sent to it unless such material is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law, regulation, judicial or administrative order, decree or subpoena, or request by a regulatory organization having authority pursuant to the law.
7.Liability of the Escrow Agent and the Processing Agent; Indemnification.

6
Company shall not indemnify either Indemnitee for any such losses, claims, damages, or expenses arising out of such Indemnitee’s negligence, willful default or misconduct.
(c)If any dispute ensues between or among the parties hereto that, in the opinion of the Escrow Agent, is sufficient to justify its doing so, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to tender into the registry or custody of any court of competent jurisdiction, all money or property in its hands under the terms of this Agreement, and to file such legal proceedings as it deems appropriate, and shall thereupon be discharged from all further duties under this Agreement.
