EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Whitestone REIT (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2018, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 15, 2019 (the “2018 Form 10-K”). This Amendment is being filed to include (i) the audited financial statements of Pillarstone Capital REIT Operating Partnership LP (“Pillarstone OP”) as of December 31, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2018 as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and (ii) the consent of Pillarstone OP’s independent auditor as Exhibits 23.1 hereto. As of December 31, 2018, the Company owned 81.4% of the total outstanding units of limited partnership in Pillarstone OP. We account for the investment in Pillarstone OP using the equity method for the year ended December 31, 2018. The equity in earnings of Pillarstone OP accounted for more than 20% of the Company’s total income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2018. Therefore, Pillarstone OP’s audited financial statements are being filed herewith in accordance with Regulation S-X Rule 3-09.

In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, updated certifications of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are included as exhibits hereto. Item 15 of Part IV is the only portion of the 2018 Form 10-K amended by this Amendment. Except as described above, this Amendment does not amend, update or change the financial statements, consents or any other items or disclosures contained in the 2018 Form 10-K and does not otherwise reflect events occurring after the original filing date of the 2018 Form 10-K. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the 2018 Form 10-K and the Company’s other filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the 2018 Form 10-K.
