to  both  Buyer and Seller.  Buyer will have seven (7) days  from

Seller  in  writing  a letter canceling this agreement.  If  said
lease  extension  is acceptable to the Buyer, then  Buyer  shall,

to  the  terms  and  conditions  of  the  lease  extension  shall

Seller  within the seven (7) day period then this condition  will
be waived.

Buyer  may  cancel  this agreement for ANY  REASON  in  its  sole
discretion  by  delivering a cancellation notice, return  receipt
requested,  to Seller and escrow holder before the expiration  of
the  Review  Period. Such notice shall be deemed  effective  only
upon receipt by Seller. If this Agreement is not cancelled as set
forth  above,  the  First Payment shall be non-refundable  unless
Seller shall default hereunder.

If  Buyer cancels this Agreement as permitted under this Section,
except for any escrow cancellation fees and any liabilities under
the  first  paragraph of section 6 of this Agreement (which  will
survive),  Seller  (after execution of such documents  reasonably
requested  by  Seller to evidence the termination  hereof)  shall
return  to Buyer its First Payment and Buyer will have absolutely
no  rights, claims or interest of any type in connection with the
Property  or this transaction, regardless of any alleged  conduct
by Seller or anyone else.

Unless this Agreement is canceled by Buyer pursuant to the  terms
hereof, if Buyer fails to make the Second Payment Seller shall be
entitled  to retain the First Payment and Buyer irrevocably  will
be deemed to be in default under this Agreement. Seller then may,
at  its  option,  retain  the  First  Payment  and  declare  this
Agreement  null and void, in which event Buyer will be deemed  to
have canceled this Agreement and relinquish all rights in and  to
the Property, or Seller may exercise its rights under Section  14
hereof.  If this Agreement is not canceled and the First  Payment
and  the  Second  Payment is made when required, all  of  Buyer's
conditions and contingencies will be deemed satisfied.

7.    ESCROW. Escrow shall be opened by Seller and the funds will
be  deposited in escrow upon acceptance of this Agreement by both
parties. The escrow holder will be a nationally-recognized escrow
company  selected  by Seller. A copy of this  Agreement  will  be
delivered  to  the  escrow  holder  and  will  serve  as   escrow
instructions   together   with  the  escrow   holder's   standard
instructions  and  any additional instructions  required  by  the
escrow  holder to clarify its rights and duties (and the  parties
agree  to  sign these additional instructions). If there  is  any
conflict  between  these other instructions and  this  Agreement,
this Agreement will control.

8.    TITLE.  Closing will be conditioned on the agreement  of  a
national  title  company selected by Seller to issue  an  Owner's
policy of title insurance, dated as of the close of escrow, in an
amount equal to the purchase price, insuring that Buyer will  own
insurable and marketable fee simple title to the Property subject
only  to:  the title company's standard exceptions; current  real
property taxes and assessments; survey exceptions; the rights  of
parties  in possession pursuant to the lease defined in paragraph
11 below; all matters of public record; and other items disclosed
to Buyer during the Review Period.

Buyer shall be allowed twenty (20) business days after receipt of
said  commitment for examination and the making of any objections
to  marketability thereto, said objections to be made in  writing
or  deemed waived. If any objections are so made, Seller shall be
allowed  thirty (30) days to cure such objections and  make  such
title  marketable or, in the alternative, to obtain a  commitment
for  insurable title insuring over Buyer's objections. If  Seller
shall  decide to make no efforts to make title marketable, or  is
unable to make title marketable or obtain insurable title, (after
execution  by  Buyer  of such documents reasonably  requested  by
Seller  to evidence the termination hereof) Buyer's First Payment
will be returned and this Agreement shall be null and void and of
no  further force and effect. Seller has no obligation  to  spend
any  funds  or make any effort to satisfy Buyer's objections,  if
any.

Pending   satisfaction  of  Buyer's  objections,   the   payments
hereunder  required shall be postponed, but upon satisfaction  of
Buyer's objections and within ten (10) days after written  notice
to  the  Buyer of satisfaction of Buyer's objections, the parties
shall perform this Agreement according to its terms.

9.    CLOSING COSTS. Seller will pay one-half of escrow fees  and
one-half  of the Mortgage Registration Tax. Seller will  pay  the
cost of obtaining a Standard Owners Title Insurance Policy in the
full amount of the purchase price. Buyer will pay one-half of the
escrow  fees,  one-half  of the Mortgage  Registration  Tax,  the
recording fees, the cost of the title commitment and the cost  of
an  update  to the Survey in Sellers possession (if an update  is
required  by  Buyer). Seller will pay 3% of  the  sale  price  at
closing  as  a  brokerage  commission to  Colliers  Truly  Martin
Tucker. Each party will pay its own attorney's fees and costs  to
document and close this transaction.

10.  REAL ESTATE TAXES, SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS AND PRORATIONS.

(A).       Because  the Property is subject to a  net  lease  (as
further set forth in paragraph 11(A)(1)), the parties acknowledge
that  there  shall  be no need for a real estate  tax  proration.
However,   Seller  warrants  that  all  real  estate  taxes   and
installments of special assessments due and payable in all  years
prior to the year of Closing have been paid in full. Unpaid  real
estate  taxes  and unpaid levied and pending special  assessments
existing  on  the date of Closing shall be the responsibility  of
Buyer,  pro-rated, however, to the date of closing for the period
prior to closing, which shall be the responsibility of Seller  if
Tenant shall not pay the same. Buyer shall likewise pay all taxes
due  and  payable  in  the  year after  Closing  and  any  unpaid
installments   of  special  assessments  payable  therewith   and
thereafter, if such unpaid levied and pending special assessments
and real estate taxes are not paid by any tenant of the Property.

(B). All income and all operating expenses from the Property,  if
any,  shall be prorated between the parties and adjusted by  them
as of the date of Closing. Seller shall be entitled to all income
earned, and shall be responsible for all expenses incurred, prior
to  the  date of Closing. Buyer shall be entitled to  all  income
earned and shall be responsible for all operating expenses of the
Property incurred on and after the date of closing.

11.  SELLER'S REPRESENTATION AND AGREEMENTS.

(A). Seller represents and warrants as of this date that:

1.   Except for the Lease Agreement in existence between AEI Real

partner  is  AEI  Fund  Management  XVIII,  Inc.  ("Lessor")  and
KinderCare Learning Centers, Inc. ("Lessee"), dated September 13,
1990,  the First Amendment to Net Lease Agreement dated July  30,
2004, the Second Amendment to Net Lease Agreement dated July  20,
2005,  and the Certificate of Merger dated November 1, 2005  (the
"Lease"), Seller is not aware of any leases of the Property.

2.    If  the  Lease  contains a Right of First  Refusal  to  the
benefit  of  the Lessee for the duration of the Lease,  including
any  renewal  terms,  then  Seller's  obligations  hereunder  are
contingent upon Seller successfully obtaining Lessee's waiver  of
such right of first refusal with respect to this transaction.

3.    It  is  not aware of any pending litigation or condemnation
proceedings  against  the Property or Seller's  interest  in  the
Property.

has  executed that would be binding on Seller after  the  closing
date.

Seller agrees that it will not enter into any new contracts  that
would  materially  affect the Property and be binding  on  Seller
after the Closing Date without Buyer's prior consent, which  will
not be unreasonably withheld.

exercised, if at all, by written notice to Seller within ten (10)
days  after Buyer has received written notice from Seller of said

relation to the Property, subject to rights of any Tenant of  the
Property.

In  the  event  that  this Agreement is terminated  by  Buyer  as
provided  above  in  Subparagraph 16A or 16B, the  First  Payment
shall  be immediately returned to Buyer (after execution by Buyer
of  such documents reasonably requested by Seller to evidence the
