BUSINESS. (Continued)\n\n \n\nCompetition\n\n \n\nThe Partnership is a minor factor in the commercial real estate business. There are numerous entities engaged in the commercial real estate business which have greater financial resources than the Partnership. At the time the Partnership elects to dispose of its properties, the Partnership will be in competition with other persons and entities to find buyers for its properties.\n\n \n\nEmployees\n\n \n\nThe Partnership has no direct employees. Management services are performed for the Partnership by AEI Fund Management, Inc. (the “Management Company” or “AEI”), an affiliate of AFM. The Management Company made reductions to the employee headcount in 2024, which in turn resulted in expense reductions in compensation plans and employee benefit plans.\n\n \n\nThe Management Company believes the people who work for the Company are its most important resources and are critical to its continued success. The Management Company focuses significant attention toward attracting and retaining talented and experienced individuals to manage and support its operations. The Management Company’s people are expected to exhibit and promote honest, ethical and respectful conduct in the workplace. All of the Management Company’s employees must adhere to a code of conduct that is outlined in AEI’s employee handbook which sets standards for appropriate behavior which includes preventing, identifying, reporting and stopping any type of discrimination.\n\n \n\nCompensation and Benefits\n\n \n\nThe Management Company believes its compensation package and benefits are competitive with others in its industry. In addition to base pay, all eligible employees participate in the Management Company bonus program. The Management Company also offers employees a broad range of benefits, including medical, dental and ancillary health benefits and paid parental leave.\n\n \n\n5"}
