ITEM 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

On March 11, 2010, Shelter Properties II (the “Registrant”) obtained a second mortgage loan in the principal amount of $5,121,000 on one of its investment properties, Parktown Townhouses, located in Deer Park, Texas. The second mortgage loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 6.48% per annum, and requires monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $32,000 beginning on May 1, 2010, through the loan’s January 1, 2021 maturity date. The second mortgage loan has a balloon payment of approximately $4,267,000 due at maturity. The Registrant may prepay the second mortgage at any time with 30 days written notice to the lender subject to a prepayment penalty.

In connection with the second mortgage loan, the Registrant also agreed to certain modifications to the existing mortgage loan encumbering Parktown Townhouses. The modifications include a fixed interest rate of 7.21% per annum and monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $37,000 beginning on May 1, 2010, through the January 1, 2021 maturity date. The existing mortgage loan has a balloon payment of approximately $4,675,000 due at maturity. The previous terms of the existing mortgage loan consisted of a fixed interest rate of 7.21% per annum and monthly payments of approximately $61,000 through the maturity date of January 1, 2021, at which date the mortgage was scheduled to be fully amortized. The Registrant may prepay the first mortgage loan by delivering 30 days written notice to the lender subject to a prepayment penalty.

In accordance with the terms of both loan agreements, payment of the loans may be accelerated at the option of the lender if an event of default, as defined in the applicable loan agreements, occurs. Events of default include nonpayment of monthly principal and interest by the due date; nonpayment of the matured balance of the loan on the maturity date; and the occurrence of any breach or default in the performance of any of the covenants or agreements made by the Registrant.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Multifamily Note and Amended and Restated Multifamily Note, copies of which are filed as exhibits 10(iii)(l) and 10(iii)(m) to this report.

In accordance with the Registrant’s partnership agreement, the Registrant’s corporate general partner has evaluated the cash requirements of the Registrant and determined that the net financing proceeds will be used to repay outstanding loans and payables due to an affiliate of the Registrant’s corporate general partner.
