***YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT***
DWS RREEF REAL ESTATE FUND II, INC. (“SRO”)
345 Park Avenue
New York, NY 10154
November 25, 2009
Dear Stockholders of DWS RREEF Real Estate Fund II, Inc.:
Time is running short and the Annual Meeting is rapidly approaching
. We hope you will take this chance to vote your shares of DWS RREEF Real Estate Fund II, Inc. (the “Fund”). The Annual Meeting of Stockholders is scheduled for December 7, 2009 and, according to our records, your vote has not yet been received. Your Board of Directors is asking you to use the enclosed proxy card to authorize your proxy
“FOR”
the election of Directors and the proposal to liquidate all of the assets of the Fund and dissolve the Fund pursuant to a Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution (the “Plan”). We hope you will take a moment to review these materials and to authorize your proxy in accordance with your Board of Directors’ recommendations.
After careful consideration of the present circumstances, a review of all alternatives and the recommendation of the Fund’s manager, your Board has determined that liquidation of the Fund now is in the best interests of stockholders, and the Board has unanimously approved the Plan.
Implementation of the Plan will allow you to:
|
-
|
Exit the Fund at net asset value upon liquidation
|
|
-
|
Eliminate the impact of any trading discount
|
|
-
|
Reinvest the proceeds in an investment of your own choosing
|
We urge you to support the liquidation by completing, signing and dating the enclosed proxy card and promptly mailing it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. Voting now will allow the Fund to minimize the expense incurred with further reminder mailings and solicitations.
Alternatively, you may vote by telephone or internet by following the instructions on the enclosed card. If you hold your shares in a brokerage or bank account (in “street name”), your broker or bank
cannot
vote your shares (as it has in past annual meetings) in support of the Plan unless you complete, sign, date and return the proxy voting form it will send you. If you have already in support of the plan returned a proxy card or voted FOR the Plan in another manner, we thank you.
Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, and regardless of the number of shares you own, we urge you to authorize your proxy
FOR
the election of Directors and
FOR
the liquidation.
We thank you for your continued support.
Sincerely,
The Board of Directors of DWS RREEF Real Estate Fund II, Inc.
