PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT

THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of November 1, 2021 (the “Effective Date”) by and between AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 26 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”) and XXXXXX X. XXXXXX and XXX X. XXXXXX, husband and wife (collectively, “Buyer”). Seller desires to sell, and Buyer desires to purchase, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in the real property and improvements thereupon located at 0000 X Xxx 00 Xxx Xxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxx, XX 00000, as more particularly described on Exhibit “A” attached hereto (the “Property”).

In consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby mutually acknowledged, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:

Property. The property to be sold to Buyer in this transaction consists of an undivided 100% interest in the Property. Seller owns no interest in any personalty with respect to the Property.

Lease. The Property is being sold subject to an existing Lease of the Property dated January 21, 2015 by and between Seller, as lessor (pursuant to that certain Assignment and Assumption of Lease dated February 3, 2016 by and between BEL Investments West Point, MS, LLC, an Alabama limited liability company, as assignor, and Seller, as assignee), and Dollar Tree Stores, Inc., a Virginia corporation, as lessee (the “Tenant”) (collectively, the “Lease”). The Tenant’s obligations under the lease are guaranteed by Dollar Tree, Inc., a Virginia corporation, pursuant to that certain Guaranty of Lease dated July 23, 2015. The Seller agrees to sell and convey to Buyer, and Buyer agrees to purchase from Seller, all right, title, and interest of Seller in and to all leases and other agreements to occupy all or any portion of the Property that are in effect on the Effective Date or which Seller executed prior to Closing (as hereinafter defined) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for the Property is $1,655,000 (the “Purchase Price”). If all conditions precedent to Buyer’s obligations to purchase have been satisfied, Buyer shall deposit the Purchase Price with the Closing Agent (as defined below) on or before the Closing Date.

Terms. The Purchase Price will be paid by Buyer as follows:

Within three (3) business days of the Effective Date of this Agreement, Buyer will deposit $50,000 (the “Xxxxxxx Money”) into an interest-bearing account with First American Title Insurance Company, 0000 00^xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, 00000, Attn: Xxxx Xxx; phone number: (000) 000-0000; email: xxxxx@xxxxxxx.xxx (the “Closing Agent” or “Title Company” or “Escrow Agent”). Upon expiration of the Review Period (as defined below), Xxxxxxx Money shall become non-refundable except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement. The Xxxxxxx Money shall be credited against the Purchase Price when and if escrow closes and the sale is completed.

Buyer will deposit the balance of the Purchase Price into escrow in sufficient time to allow escrow to close on the Closing Date.

Due Diligence. Buyer will have twenty-one (21) days from the Effective Date of this Agreement (the “Review Period”) to conduct all of its inspections and due diligence and satisfy itself regarding the Property and this transaction. Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless for any loss or damage to the Property or persons caused by Buyer or its agents arising out of such physical inspections of the Property; provided, however, Buyer shall not be responsible for any indemnity obligations related to the discovery of pre-existing conditions or Seller’s negligence or willful misconduct. This indemnity shall survive Closing or termination of this Agreement. Within three (3) business days of the Effective Date of this Agreement, Seller shall provide, to the extent such items are in its possession, the items listed on Exhibit “B” (“Seller’s Materials”).

Buyer may cancel this Agreement before the expiration of the Review Period for any reason in its sole discretion by delivering a cancellation notice to Seller and Closing Agent prior to the expiration of the Review Period. If this Agreement is not cancelled as set forth above, the Xxxxxxx Money shall be non-refundable except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement.

If Buyer cancels this Agreement before the expiration of the Review Period, as permitted under this Section, except for any escrow cancellation fees charged by the Title Company and any liabilities under the first paragraph of Section 5 of this Agreement and those provisions stating otherwise (which will survive), Seller (after execution of such documents reasonably requested by Seller to evidence the termination hereof) shall return to Buyer its Xxxxxxx Money 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 Buyer, Seller or anyone else.

If Buyer fails to close this transaction at no fault of Seller, Buyer will be irrevocably deemed in default of this Agreement. Upon default by Buyer, Seller may, as its option, retain the Xxxxxxx Money as its sole and exclusive remedy and declare this Agreement null and void, in which event Buyer will be deemed to have cancelled this Agreement and relinquish all rights in and to the Property, or Seller may exercise its rights hereunder. The Review Period will be deemed satisfied if Buyer has deposited the Xxxxxxx Money as required by Section 4 hereof, and this Agreement is not cancelled.

Closing Date. Escrow shall close (the “Closing”) on or before fifteen (15) days following the expiration of the Review Period (the “Closing Date”) unless the parties mutually agree otherwise.

Escrow. Escrow shall be opened upon execution of this Agreement by both parties. A copy of this Agreement will be delivered to the Title Company and will serve as escrow instructions together with the Title Company’s standard instructions, any additional instructions required by Seller and/or Buyer or their respective counsels, and any additional instructions required by the Title Company to clarify its rights and duties. The parties agree to sign these additional instructions. If there is any conflict between these other instructions and this Agreement, this Agreement shall control.

Title. Buyer, at its sole expense, within three (3) business days of the Effective Date, shall order an updated title insurance commitment, along with underlying documents to include any easement or declarations/CAM affecting the Property, for an Owner’s Title Insurance Policy (collectively, the “Title Commitment”). Closing will be conditioned on the agreement of the Title Company to issue an Owner’s Title Insurance Policy, dated as of the Closing Date, in an amount equal to the Purchase Price, insuring that Buyer will own insurable 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; the Permitted Exceptions, as defined herein. Buyer may, at its sole expense, order and obtain an updated survey of the Property. Buyer hereby acknowledges that if Buyer desires to remove the survey exception from the Title Commitment, it shall be Buyer’s responsibility to obtain such updated survey. Seller shall have no obligation to execute any “no change” or equivalent affidavit with respect to the existing survey of the real property, nor shall Seller have any obligation to make any representations or warranties regarding such survey or any measurements or depictions thereon.

Buyer shall be allowed ten (10) days after receipt of said Title Commitment for examination and the making of any title objections thereto (the “Title Objections”), said Title Objections to be made in

writing or deemed waived (such written notice of Buyer’s Title Objections to be hereinafter referred to as the “Notice of Objections”). Except as set forth below, any title exception disclosed by the Title Commitment or Buyer’s survey and not listed in such Notice of Objections shall be deemed a “Permitted Title Exception” under this Agreement.

If Seller shall fail to cure (or commence to cure) or eliminate all the Title Objections listed in the Notice of Defect within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Notice of Objections (the “Title Cure Period”), then Buyer may elect either to: (a) accept the Property subject to the title exception(s) not cured (in which case such title exception(s) shall become a Permitted Title Exception(s) hereunder), or (b) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money.

In the event that Seller agrees to cure a Title Objection and commences such cure, but the same cannot be cured within the Title Cure Period, the Buyer may, by written notice to Seller, preserve such Title Objection such that the cure of such Title Objection shall be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to close. Buyer shall elect to either accept the Property subject to the Permitted Exceptions or terminate the Agreement by written notice to Seller delivered within three (3) business days following the end of the Title Cure Period, and the failure to deliver such election notice shall constitute an election to proceed under clause (a) above. In the event of a termination hereunder the Xxxxxxx Money shall be refunded to Buyer. Any mortgage, security deed, lien, lis pendens, judgment, or other claim in a liquidated amount incurred by Seller during Seller’s ownership of the Property and which constitutes an exception to the title to the Property shall not in any event be a Permitted Title Exception hereunder, but such claim shall be paid or satisfied out of the sums payable by Buyer at Closing, and the proceeds of sale payable to Seller shall be reduced accordingly; provided that such claim must have arisen directly from the acts or omissions of Seller, and not those of the Tenant.

At any time after the Effective Date of this Agreement and prior to Closing, Buyer shall have the right to notify Seller of any additional title exception which first appears of record after the effective date of the Title Commitment, or otherwise becomes known to Buyer. Buyer shall be allowed five (5) business days after notice of such additional title exception for examination and the making of any new Title Objections thereto by written notice to Seller (“Notice of New Objections”). Except as set forth herein, any title exception disclosed to Buyer and not listed in such Notice of New Objections shall be deemed a Permitted Title Exception. If Seller shall fail to cure (or commence to cure) or eliminate all the new Title Objections listed in the Notice of New Objections within ten (10) business days after receipt of the Notice of New Objections (the “Second Title Cure Period”), then Buyer may elect either to: (a) accept the Property subject to the new title exception(s) not cured (in which case such new title exception(s) shall become a Permitted Title Exception(s) hereunder), or (b) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money.

Closing Costs. Seller shall pay one-half of all transfer taxes (state, county, and municipal, as applicable). Seller shall pay any and all brokerage commissions to Trinity XXXX, LLC (“Seller’s Broker”) and U.S. Commercial Realty, Inc. (“Buyer’s Broker”) per separate agreement, and Seller and Buyer acknowledge that Bang Realty of Mississippi, Inc. is acting as Mississippi broker of record with respect to the transaction contemplated herein. Except for Seller’s Broker and Buyer’s Broker set forth above, both parties represent to the other that they have not been represented by a broker, and agree to hold the other harmless from any claim of brokerage commission by, through, or as a result of representation of the other party.

Buyer shall pay the standard Owner’s Title Insurance Policy premium and the full cost of any title search and exam fees and endorsements or extended coverage as Buyer may require for such policy. Buyer will pay one-half of all transfer taxes (state, county, and municipal, as applicable) and all recording fees. Buyer will pay any and all recording fees. Buyer will pay the cost of updating any due

diligence provided by Seller, including the cost of an updated survey to be ordered by Buyer as set forth in Section 8 above. Buyer and Seller will split all escrow and closing fees equally. 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. The responsibility for all real property taxes for the current tax period and all expenses (including but not limited to common area maintenance expenses and fees), if any, that are the responsibility of Seller, shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller as of the Closing Date.

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

11.

Seller represents and warrants as of this date that:

Except for the existing Lease with the existing Tenant, Seller is not aware of any leases of the Property.

ii.

Seller has not received notice of any pending litigation or condemnation proceedings against the Property or Seller’s interest in the Property.

vii.

To the actual knowledge of Seller, Tenant is not in default under or in breach of the Lease.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in this Section 11 a) shall survive the Closing for a period of six (6) months from the Closing Date, and on such six (6) month anniversary. Seller hereby agrees that the truthfulness of each of the foregoing representations and warranties, and of all other representations and warranties made in this Agreement, as of the Effective Date and as of the

Closing Date, is a condition precedent to the performance by Buyer of its obligations under this Agreement. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of any change in any condition with respect to the Property or of any event or circumstance which makes any representation or warranty of Seller under this Agreement untrue, or any covenant of Buyer under this Agreement incapable being performed. If any of the foregoing representations and warranties is true of the Effective Date, but is not true as of the Closing Date as a result of a matter, circumstance or event beyond the reasonable control of Seller, Buyer shall not be entitled to consider the untruth of the representation or warranty as an event of default under this Agreement, but instead Buyer may, at its election and as its sole remedy, terminate this Agreement by delivery of written notice to Seller, and in that event Buyer shall be entitled to a return of the Xxxxxxx Money.

Provided that Buyer performs its obligations as required, Seller agrees that it will not enter into any new contracts or amend the Lease in any manner 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 or delayed.

Miscellaneous.

Tenant Estoppel Certificate. Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Property under this Agreement is expressly conditioned upon the delivery by Seller to Buyer, at least five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, of a tenant estoppel certificate from Tenant on Tenant’s standard form dated no earlier than the Effective Date of this Agreement establishing or confirming each of the following: (a) that the Lease is in full force and effect, (b) that Seller is not in default under the Lease, and (c) the date through which the rent has been paid. The failure of Seller to deliver to Buyer the estoppel certificate required by this paragraph shall not be a default by Seller under this Agreement. If the condition in this paragraph is not satisfied by the Closing Date, Buyer may either (x) waive the condition and proceed to Closing, (y) extend the Closing Date by a period not to exceed thirty (30) days to permit the obtainment of any missing tenant estoppel certificates, or (z) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller prior to Closing, and upon any such termination Escrow Agent shall return the Xxxxxxx Money to Buyer and this Agreement shall be null and void.

This Agreement may be amended only by written agreement signed by both Seller and Buyer, and all waivers must be in writing and signed by the waiving party. Time is of the essence. This Agreement will not be construed for or against a party whether or not that party has drafted this Agreement. If there is any action or proceeding between the parties relating to this Agreement the prevailing party will be entitled to recover attorney’s fees and costs. This is an integrated agreement containing all agreements of the parties about the Property and the other matters described and it supersedes any other agreements or understandings. Exhibits attached to this Agreement are incorporated into this Agreement.

If this escrow has not closed by the Closing Date through no fault of Seller, Seller may, at its election, extend the Closing Date or exercise any remedy available to it by law, including terminating this Agreement.

Funds to be deposited or paid by Buyer must be good and clear funds in the form of cash, cashier’s checks or wire transfers, subject to the Title Company’s requirements.

Buyer shall have the right to assign this Contract at Closing to any entity or entities affiliated with or related to Buyer without the consent of Seller (provided that Buyer shall notify Seller at least five (5) days prior to Closing to allow the parties to modify the Closing documentation accordingly). Other than the foregoing, Buyer shall not be entitled to assign any of its right, title, and interest herein without Seller’s prior consent. Any assignee shall expressly assume all of Buyer’s duties, obligations, and liabilities hereunder, and Buyer shall not be released from any of its obligations hereunder.

Whenever the last day for the exercise of any right or the discharge of any obligation under this Contract shall fall upon a Saturday, Sunday, or any public or legal holiday, the party having such right or obligation shall have until 5:00 p.m. (Central Standard Time) on the next succeeding regular business day to exercise such right or discharge such obligation. Time is of the essence of this Contract.

The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall not affect or impair any other provisions hereof.

All of the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Parties hereto.

No failure to strictly enforce any provision hereof shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other provision hereof or of any subsequent breach by the other party of the same or any other provision.

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts by the Parties hereto. All counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one agreement. Each counterpart shall be deemed an original hereof notwithstanding less than all of the Parties may have executed it. All facsimile and emailed executions shall be treated as originals for all purposes.

All Parties agree to sign any and all further documents reasonably necessary to implement the terms hereof.
