     THIS  AMENDMENT  TO NET  LEASE AGREEMENT, made  and  entered
into effective as of the 23rd day of August, 2000, by and between
AEI  Income  &  Growth Fund 23 LLC, ("Fund 23"), whose  principal
business  address is 1300 Minnesota World Trade Center,  30  East
Seventh   Street,   St.   Paul,  Minnesota   55101   (hereinafter
collectively  referred  to  as "Lessor"),  and  Tumbleweed,  Inc.
(hereinafter  referred to as "Lessee"), whose principal  business
address is 1900 Mellwood Avenue, Louisville, Kentucky;

                          WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS,  Lessee and Lessor Fund 23 have entered  into  that
certain  Net Lease Agreement dated February 25, 2000, as  amended
August  23,  200  by that certain First Amendment  to  Net  Lease
Agreement   (the "Lease") providing for the lease  of  said  real
property and Building in Kettering, Ohio (said real property  and
Building hereinafter referred to as the "Leased Premises"),  from
Lessor  upon  the  terms and conditions therein provided  in  the
Lease; and

     WHEREAS,  Lessee and Lessor entered into that certain  First
Amendment  to  the  Net Lease Agreement of  even  effective  date
hereof, and said First Amendment contained a typographical  error
respecting  the payment of rents in the second lease year,  which
provision  was intended by the parties to be governed by  Article
4(B)  of  the  Net  Lease Agreement and was not  intended  to  be
amended; and

     WHEREAS,  the  Multi-Site Agreement dated  effective  as  of
November 20, 1997, as amended on April 29, 1999, effective as  of
May  20, 1999 also provides for the payment of rents as correctly
reflected in Article 4(B) of the Net Lease Agreement and  not  as
erroneously  reflected in the First Amendment to  the  Net  Lease
Agreement;

     NOW,  THEREFORE,  in  consideration  of  the  Rents,  terms,
covenants, conditions, and agreements hereinafter described to be
paid, kept, and performed by Lessee, including the completion  of
the  Building  and  other  improvements constituting  the  Leased
Premises,  Lessee and Lessor do hereby agree to amend  the  Lease
and correct the First Amendment to Lease as follows:

1.   Article 4(A) of the Lease shall henceforth read as follows:

ARTICLE 4.  RENT PAYMENTS

     (A)  Annual Rent Payable for the first Lease Year:  Lessee shall
          pay to Lessor an annual Base Rent of $120,821.10, which amount
          shall be payable in advance on the first day of each month in
          equal monthly installments of $10,068.43 to Fund 23.  If the
          first day of the Lease Term is not the first day of a calendar
          month, then the monthly Rent payable for that partial month shall
          be a prorated portion of the equal monthly installment of Base
          Rent.

2.   All  other  terms  and  conditions  of  the  Net  Lease
     Agreement  and all prior amendments thereto  remain  in
     full force and effect.

3.   This  Agreement  may  be executed in multiple  counterparts,
     each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall
     constitute one and the same instrument.


IN  WITNESS  WHEREOF, Lessor and Lessee have respectively  signed
and sealed this Lease as of the day and year first above written.
