Section 2 – Financial Information
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On July 3, 2014, the Partnership purchased a 30% interest in a Gander Mountain store in Champaign, Illinois for $2,122,500 from 2006 Prospect Champaign, LLC, an unrelated third party. The property is leased to Gander Mountain Company under a Lease Agreement with a remaining primary term of 15 years. The Lease may be renewed by the tenant for up to four consecutive terms of five years each. The Lease requires an initial annual rent of $167,772 for the 30% interest, which will increase every five years by $5,825. The Lease is a net lease under which the tenant is responsible for real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs and operating expenses of the property. The only exceptions are the Partnership is responsible for repairs to the structural components of the building and roof. The remaining interests in the property were purchased by AEI Accredited Investor Fund V LP and AEI National Income Property Fund VIII LP, affiliates of the Partnership.
The Partnership purchased the property with cash received from the sale of property. The store was constructed in 1994 and remodeled for Gander Mountain use in 2014. The store is a 39,457 square foot building situated on approximately 3.5 acres of land. The freestanding retail store is located at 2006 North Prospect Avenue, Champaign, Illinois.
Gander Mountain Company (“GMC”), headquartered in St. Paul, Minnesota, operates the nation’s largest retail network of stores for hunting, fishing, camping, and marine products and accessories.

They have requested that this financial information be kept confidential.
Section 9 – Financial Statements and Exhibits
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
(a) Financial statements of businesses acquired – Because the property is leased to a single tenant on a long-term basis under a net lease that transfers substantially all of the operating costs to the tenant, we believe that financial information about the tenant is more relevant than financial statements of the property. Financial information of the tenant is presented in the last paragraph of Item 2.01.
(b) Pro forma financial information – A limited number of pro forma adjustments are required to illustrate the effects of the above transaction on the Partnership’s balance sheet and income statement. The following narrative description is furnished in lieu of the pro forma statements:
Assuming the Partnership had acquired the property on January 1, 2013, the Partnership’s Real Estate Held for Investment would have increased by $2,122,500 and its Current Assets (cash) would have decreased by $2,122,500.
For the year ended December 31, 2013, Income from Continuing Operations would have increased $95,025, representing an increase in rental income of $167,772 and an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $72,747. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, Income from Continuing Operations would have increased $23,756, representing an increase in rental income of $41,943 and an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $18,187.
The net effect of these pro forma adjustments would have caused Net Income to increase from $1,705,255 to $1,800,280 and from $141,850 to $165,606, which would have resulted in Net Income of $78.36 and $7.24 per Limited Partnership Unit outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the three months ended March 31, 2014, respectively.
(c) Shell company transactions – Not Applicable.
(d) Exhibits – Not Required. The property acquired represents less than 15% of the total assets of the Partnership as of July 3, 2014.
