DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE The registrant has not incorporated any documents by reference into this report. PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS. AEI Income & Growth Fund 25 LLC (the "Company" or the "Registrant") is a limited liability company which was organized pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware on June 24, 2002. The registrant is comprised of AEI Fund Management XXI, Inc. ("AFM"), as the Managing Member, Robert P. Johnson, the President and sole director of AFM, as the Special Managing Member, and purchasers of LLC Units as Limited Members. The Company offered for sale up to $50,000,000 of limited membership interests (the "Units") (50,000 Units at $1,000 per Unit) pursuant to a registration statement effective May 13, 2003. The Company commenced operations on September 11, 2003 when minimum subscriptions of 1,500 LLC Units ($1,500,000) were accepted. The offering terminated May 12, 2005 when the extended offering period expired. The Company received subscriptions for 42,434.763 LLC Units. Under the terms of the Operating Agreement, the Limited Members and Managing Members contributed funds of $42,434,763 and $1,000, respectively. The Company was organized to acquire existing and newly constructed commercial properties, to lease such properties to tenants under net leases, to hold such properties and to eventually sell such properties. From subscription proceeds, the Company purchased fifteen properties, including partial interests in eight properties, at a total cost of $36,389,018. The balance of the subscription proceeds was applied to organization and syndication costs. The properties are commercial, single tenant buildings leased under net leases. The Company's properties were purchased without any indebtedness. The Company will not finance properties in the future to obtain proceeds for new property acquisitions. If it is required to do so, the Company may incur short-term indebtedness to finance day-to-day cash flow requirements (including cash flow necessary to repurchase Units). The Company may borrow to finance the refurbishing of a property. The Company will hold its properties until the Managing Members determine that the sale or other disposition of the properties is advantageous in view of the Company's investment objectives. In deciding whether to sell properties, the Managing Members will consider factors such as potential appreciation, net cash flow and income tax considerations. The Company expects to sell some or all of its properties prior to its final liquidation and to reinvest the proceeds from such sales in additional properties. The Company reserves the right, at the discretion of the Managing Members, to either distribute proceeds from the sale of properties to the Members or to reinvest such proceeds in additional properties, provided that sufficient proceeds are distributed to the Limited Members to pay federal and state income taxes related to any taxable gain recognized as a result of the sale. It is anticipated that the Company will commence liquidation through the sale of its remaining properties eight to twelve years after completion of the acquisition phase, depending upon the then current real estate and money markets, the economic climate and the income tax consequences to the Members. ITEM 1. BUSINESS. (Continued) Leases Although there are variations in the specific terms of the leases, the following is a summary of the general terms of the Company's leases. The properties are leased to various tenants under net leases, classified as operating leases. Under a net lease, the tenant is responsible for real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs and operating expenses for the property. For some leases, the Company is responsible for repairs to the structural components of the building, the roof, and the parking lot. At the time the properties were acquired, the remaining primary lease terms varied from 10 to 20 years. The leases provide the tenants with two to four five-year renewal options subject to the same terms and conditions as the primary term. The leases provide for base annual rental payments, payable in monthly installments, and contain rent clauses which entitle the Company to receive additional rent in future years based on stated rent increases. Property Activity During the Last Three Years As of December 31, 2007, the Company owned interests in fourteen properties with a total original cost of $35,090,210. During the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, the Company sold partial interests in one property and received net sale proceeds of $191,947, $555,272 and $1,571,988, which resulted in net gains of $47,438, $114,685, and $218,688, respectively. During 2007 and 2008, the Company expended $4,050,434 to purchase one additional property as it reinvested cash generated from property sales. On March 12, 2008, the Company sold a partial interest in this property at its cost to an affiliated fund for $923,833. After the sale, the Company's investment in this property was $3,126,601. During 2010, the Company expended $771,868 to purchase one additional property as it reinvested cash generated from property sales. As of December 31, 2010, the Company owned interests in fifteen properties with a total original cost of $34,886,661. Major Tenants During 2010, four tenants each contributed more than ten percent of the Company's total rental revenue. The major tenants in aggregate contributed 71% of total rental revenue in 2010. It is anticipated that, based on minimum rental payments required under the leases, each major tenant will continue to contribute more than ten percent of rental revenue in 2011 and future years. Any failure of these major tenants could materially affect the Company's net income and cash distributions. Competition The Company 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 Company. At the time the Company elects to dispose of its properties, it will be in competition with other persons and entities to find buyers for its properties. Employees The Company has no direct employees. Management services are performed for the Company by AEI Fund Management, Inc., an affiliate of AFM. ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS. Not required for a smaller reporting company. ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS. Not required for a smaller reporting company. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES. Investment Objectives The Company's investment objectives are to acquire existing or newly-developed commercial properties that provide (i) regular rental income; (ii) growth in lease income through rent escalation provisions; (iii) capital growth through appreciation in the value of properties; (iv) reduced occupancy risks as a result of long-term leases with creditworthy corporate tenants; and (v) passive income that may be offset by eligible passive losses from other investments for tax purposes. The Company does not have a policy, and there is no limitation, as to the amount or percentage of assets that may be invested in any one property. However, to the extent possible, the Managing Members attempt to diversify the type and location of the properties. Description of Properties The Company's properties are commercial, single tenant buildings. The properties were acquired on a debt-free basis and are leased to various tenants under net leases, classified as operating leases. The Company holds an undivided fee simple interest in the properties. The Company's properties are subject to the general competitive conditions incident to the ownership of single tenant investment real estate. Since each property is leased under a long-term lease, there is little competition until the Company decides to sell the property. At this time, the Company will be competing with other real estate owners, on both a national and local level, in attempting to find buyers for the properties. In the event of a tenant default, the Company would be competing with other real estate owners, who have property vacancies, to attract a new tenant to lease the property. The Company's tenants operate in industries that are very competitive and can be affected by factors such as changes in regional or local economies, seasonality and changes in consumer preference. The following table is a summary of the properties that the Company acquired and owned as of December 31, 2010. Annual Annual Purchase Property Lease Rent Per Property Date Cost Tenant Payment Sq.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES. (Continued) The properties listed above with a partial ownership percentage are owned with the following affiliated entities: Johnny Carino's restaurant in Lake Charles, Louisiana (AEI Private Net Lease Millennium Fund Limited Partnership); Jared Jewelry store in Madison Heights, Michigan (AEI Income & Growth Fund 23 LLC and AEI Accredited Investor Fund 2002 Limited Partnership); Jared Jewelry store in Auburn Hills, Michigan (AEI Income & Growth Fund XXI Limited Partnership); CarMax auto superstore (AEI Income & Growth Fund XXI Limited Partnership, AEI Income & Growth Fund 24 LLC and AEI Private Net Lease Millennium Fund Limited Partnership); Sports Authority store (AEI Income & Growth Fund 26 LLC); Advance Auto Parts store in Indianapolis, Indiana (AEI Income & Growth Fund XXII Limited Partnership); Dick's Sporting Goods store (AEI Income & Growth Fund 23 LLC, AEI Income & Growth Fund 24 LLC and AEI Income & Growth Fund 26 LLC); and Scott & White Clinic (AEI Net Lease Income & Growth Fund XX Limited Partnership and AEI Income & Growth Fund XXI Limited Partnership). The remaining interest in the Applebee's restaurant is owned by unrelated third parties. The Company accounts for properties owned as tenants-in- common with affiliated entities and/or unrelated third parties using the proportionate consolidation method. Each tenant-in- common owns a separate, undivided interest in the properties. Any tenant-in-common that holds more than a 50% interest does not control decisions over the other tenant-in-common interests. The financial statements reflect only this Company's percentage share of the properties' land, building and equipment, liabilities, revenues and expenses. At the time the properties were acquired, the remaining primary lease terms varied from 10 to 20 years. The leases provide the tenants with two to four five-year renewal options subject to the same terms and conditions as the primary term. Pursuant to the lease agreements, the tenants are required to provide proof of adequate insurance coverage on the properties they occupy. The Managing Members believe the properties are adequately covered by insurance and consider the properties to be well-maintained and sufficient for the Company's operations. For tax purposes, the Company's properties are depreciated under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS). The largest depreciable component of a property is the building which is depreciated, using the straight-line method, over 39 years. The remaining depreciable components of a property are personal property and land improvements which are depreciated, using an accelerated method, over 5 and 15 years, respectively. Since the Company has tax-exempt Members, the Company is subject to the rules of Section 168(h)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code which requires a percentage of the properties' depreciable components to be depreciated over longer lives using the straight-line method. In general, the federal tax basis of the properties for tax depreciation purposes is the same as the basis for book depreciation purposes, except for properties purchased after January 1, 2009. For those properties, acquisition expenses that were expensed for book purposes were capitalized and added to the basis of the property for tax depreciation purposes. At December 31, 2010, all properties listed above were 100% occupied. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. None. ITEM 4. REMOVED AND RESERVED. PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCK- HOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES. (a) As of December 31, 2010, there were 1,141 holders of record of the registrant's LLC Units. There is no other class of security outstanding or authorized. The registrant's Units are not a traded security in any market. During the period covered by this report, the Company did not sell any equity securities that are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933. Cash distributions of $66,462 and $64,359 were made to the Managing Members and $2,220,103 and $2,114,600 were made to the Limited Members for 2010 and 2009, respectively. The distributions were made on a quarterly basis and represent Net Cash Flow, as defined, except as discussed below. These distributions should not be compared with dividends paid on capital stock by corporations. As part of the Limited Members' distributions discussed above, the Company distributed net sale proceeds of $105,700 and $50,000 in 2010 and 2009, respectively. (b) Not applicable. (c) Pursuant to Section 7.7 of the Operating Agreement, each Limited Member has the right to present Units to the Company for purchase by submitting notice to the Managing Member during January or July of each year. The purchase price of the Units is equal to 80% of the net asset value per Unit, as of the first business day of January or July of each year, as determined by the Managing Member in accordance with the provisions of the Operating Agreement. Units tendered to the Company during January and July are redeemed on April 1st and October 1st, respectively, of each year subject to the following limitations. The Company will not be obligated to purchase in any year more than 2% of the total number of Units outstanding on January 1 of such year. In no event shall the Company be obligated to purchase Units if, in the sole discretion of the Managing Member, such purchase would impair the capital or operation of the Company. During the last three months of 2010, the Company did not purchase any Units. ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCK- HOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES. Other Information The Company is required, pursuant to FINRA Rule 2810, to disclose in each annual report distributed to Limited Members a per Unit estimated value, the method by which it was developed and the date of the data used to develop the estimated value. At December 31, 2010, the Company's Units were valued at $814. This value was the aggregate estimated value of the Company's assets less the Company's liabilities, and less the value attributable to the interest of the Managing Members, divided by the number of Units outstanding. The Company's cash, receivables and liabilities were valued at face value. Each of the Company's properties were valued by dividing their annual rental income as of December 1, 2010 by a capitalization rate the Managing Member believed to be representative of the retail market for the sale of each property. The resulting value for each property was reviewed to determine that it also reflected circumstances that may have been unique to each specific property. No independent property appraisals were obtained. The valuations performed by the Managing Member were estimates only, and were based on a number of assumptions which may not be accurate or complete. In addition, property values are subject to change and could decline after the date of the valuations. Accordingly, this estimated value, prepared by the Managing Member, should not be viewed as the amount at which a Limited Member may be able to sell his units, or the fair market value of the Company properties, nor does it represent the amount of net proceeds Limited Members would receive if the Company properties were sold and the proceeds distributed in a liquidation of the Company. ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA. Not required for a smaller reporting company. ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. This section contains "forward-looking statements" which represent management's expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including statements regarding anticipated application of cash, expected returns from rental income, growth in revenue, the sufficiency of cash to meet operating expenses, rates of distribution, and other matters. These, and other forward- looking statements, should be evaluated in the context of a number of factors that may affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations, including the following: Market and economic conditions which affect the value of the properties the Company owns and the cash from rental income such properties generate; the federal income tax consequences of rental income, deductions, gain on sales and other items and the effects of these consequences for Members; resolution by the Managing Members of conflicts with which they may be confronted; the success of the Managing Members of locating properties with favorable risk return characteristics; the effect of tenant defaults; and the condition of the industries in which the tenants of properties owned by the Company operate. Application of Critical Accounting Policies The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to the carrying value of investments in real estate and the allocation by AEI Fund Management, Inc. of expenses to the Company as opposed to other funds they manage. The Company purchases properties and records them in the financial statements at cost (not including acquisition expenses). The Company tests long-lived assets for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. For properties the Company will hold and operate, management determines whether impairment has occurred by comparing the property's probability- weighted future undiscounted cash flows to its current carrying value. For properties held for sale, management determines whether impairment has occurred by comparing the property's estimated fair value less cost to sell to its current carrying value. If the carrying value is greater than the net realizable value, an impairment loss is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the property to its net realizable value. Changes in these assumptions or analysis may cause material changes in the carrying value of the properties. AEI Fund Management, Inc. allocates expenses to each of the funds they manage primarily on the basis of the number of hours devoted by their employees to each fund's affairs. They also allocate expenses at the end of each month that are not directly related to a fund's operations based upon the number of investors in the fund and the fund's capitalization relative to other funds they manage. The Company reimburses these expenses subject to detailed limitations contained in the Operating Agreement. ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued) Management of the Company has discussed the development and selection of the above accounting estimates and the management discussion and analysis disclosures regarding them with the managing member of the Company. Results of Operations For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized rental income from continuing operations of $2,513,177 and $2,439,142, respectively. In 2010, rental income increased mainly due to additional rent received from one property acquisition in 2010 and rent increases on six properties. Based on the scheduled rent for the properties owned as of February 28, 2011, the Company expects to recognize rental income from continuing operations of approximately $2,598,000 in 2011. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company incurred LLC administration expenses from affiliated parties of $378,628 and $371,797, respectively. These administration expenses include costs associated with the management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting requirements and communicating with the Limited Members. During the same periods, the Company incurred LLC administration and property management expenses from unrelated parties of $48,506 and $117,796, respectively. These expenses represent direct payments to third parties for legal and filing fees, direct administrative costs, outside audit costs, taxes, insurance and other property costs. The decrease in these expenses in 2010, when compared to 2009, was mainly due to a one-time charge for additional state income taxes paid in 2009. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company incurred property acquisition expenses of $16,922 related to the purchase of the Scott & White Clinic. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, depreciation expense was $907,277 and $1,005,040, respectively. In 2009, depreciation expense was higher as a result of reclassifying the Sports Authority store in Wichita, Kansas from held-for-sale status to held-for-use status during the fourth quarter of 2009. At the time of reclassification, the Company recognized $183,978 of additional depreciation expense that represented the amount of depreciation that would have been recognized if the property had not been classified as Real Estate Held for Sale. This amount represented two years of depreciation expense for the property. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized interest income of $14,703 and $8,508, respectively. In 2010 interest income increased due to the Company having more money invested in a money market account due to property sales. ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued) Upon complete disposal of a property or classification of a property as Real Estate Held for Sale, the Company includes the operating results and sale of the property in discontinued operations. In addition, the Company reclassifies the prior periods' operating results of the property to discontinued operations. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company recognized income from discontinued operations of $386,892 representing rental income less property management expenses of $168,204 and gain on disposal of real estate of $218,688. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company recognized income from discontinued operations of $339,670 representing rental income less property management expenses of $224,985 and gain on disposal of real estate of $114,685. During the second and third quarter of 2009, the Company sold 15.329% of the Applebee's restaurant in Macedonia, Ohio, in two separate transactions, to unrelated third parties. The Company received total net sale proceeds of $555,272, which resulted in a net gain of $114,685. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of the interests sold was $480,533 and $39,946, respectively. During 2010, the Company sold an additional 47.0843% of the Applebee's restaurant in Macedonia, Ohio, in six separate transactions, to unrelated third parties. The Company received total net sale proceeds of $1,571,988, which resulted in a net gain of $218,688. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of the interests sold was $1,475,997 and $122,697, respectively. The Company is attempting to sell its remaining 32.5589% interest in the property. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the property was classified as Real Estate Held for Sale with a carrying value of $935,815 and $2,289,115, respectively. Management believes inflation has not significantly affected income from operations. Leases may contain rent increases, based on the increase in the Consumer Price Index over a specified period, which will result in an increase in rental income over the term of the leases. Inflation also may cause the real estate to appreciate in value. However, inflation and changing prices may have an adverse impact on the operating margins of the properties' tenants, which could impair their ability to pay rent and subsequently reduce the Net Cash Flow available for distributions. Liquidity and Capital Resources During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company's cash balances increased $799,072 as a result of cash generated from the sale of property, which was partially offset by cash used to purchase property, and distributions and redemption payments paid to the Members in excess of cash generated from operating activities. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company's cash balances increased $601,933 as a result of cash generated from the sale of property and cash generated from operating activities in excess of distributions paid to the Members. ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued) Net cash provided by operating activities decreased from $2,225,822 in 2009 to $2,209,370 in 2010 as a result of $16,922 of acquisition expenses related to the purchase of real estate in 2010 and net timing differences in the collection of payments from the tenants and the payment of expenses, which were partially offset by an increase in total rental and interest income in 2010 and a decrease in LLC administration and property management expenses in 2010. Pursuant to new accounting guidance, the acquisition expenses were reflected as operating cash outflows. However, pursuant to the Company's Operating Agreement, acquisition expenses were funded with proceeds from property sales. The major components of the Company's cash flow from investing activities are investments in real estate and proceeds from the sale of real estate. During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company generated cash flow from the sale of real estate of $1,571,988 and $555,272, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company expended $771,868 to invest in real properties as the Company reinvested cash generated from property sales. On October 20, 2010, the Company purchased a 21% interest in a Scott & White Clinic in College Station, Texas for $771,868. The property is leased to Scott & White Healthcare under a Lease Agreement with a remaining primary term of 9.7 years (as of the date of purchase) and initial annual rent of $64,680 for the interest purchased. The remaining interests in the property were purchased by AEI Net Lease Income & Growth Fund XX Limited Partnership and AEI Income & Growth Fund XXI Limited Partnership, affiliates of the Company. The Company's primary use of cash flow, other than investment in real estate, is distribution and redemption payments to Members. The Company declares its regular quarterly distributions before the end of each quarter and pays the distribution in the first week after the end of each quarter. The Company attempts to maintain a stable distribution rate from quarter to quarter. Redemption payments are paid to redeeming Members on a semi-annual basis. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company declared distributions of $2,286,565 and $2,178,959, respectively. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, distributions of Net Cash Flow were allocated 97% to the Limited Members and 3% to the Managing Members. Distributions of Net Proceeds of Sale were allocated 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members. The Limited Members received distributions of $2,220,103 and $2,114,600 and the Managing Members received distributions of $66,462 and $64,359 for the periods, respectively. In December 2010, the Company declared a special distribution of net sale proceeds of $106,768, which resulted in higher distributions in 2010 and a higher distribution payable at December 31, 2010. During 2010 and 2009, the Company distributed $106,768 and $50,505 of net sale proceeds to the Limited and Managing Members as part of their quarterly distributions, which represented a return of capital of $2.52 and $1.19 per LLC Unit, respectively. The Company anticipates the remaining net sale proceeds will either be reinvested in additional property or distributed to the Members in the future. ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued) The Company may acquire Units from Limited Members who have tendered their Units to the Company. Such Units may be acquired at a discount. The Company will not be obligated to purchase in any year more than 2% of the total number of Units outstanding on January 1 of such year. In no event shall the Company be obligated to purchase Units if, in the sole discretion of the Managing Member, such purchase would impair the capital or operation of the Company. During 2010, two Limited Members redeemed a total of 46.92 Units for $29,702 in accordance with the Operating Agreement. The Company acquired these Units using Net Cash Flow from operations. During 2009, the Company did not redeem any Units from the Limited Members. In prior years, eight Limited Members redeemed a total of 415.48 Units for $305,680. The redemptions increase the remaining Limited Members' ownership interest in the Company. As a result of these redemption payments and pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Managing Members received distributions of $918 in 2010. The continuing rent payments from the properties, together with cash generated from property sales, should be adequate to fund continuing distributions and meet other Company obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis. The Economy and Market Conditions The impact of conditions in the current economy, including the turmoil in the credit markets, has adversely affected many real estate investment funds. However, the absence of mortgage financing on the Company's properties eliminates the risks of foreclosure and debt-refinancing that can negatively impact the value and distributions of leveraged real estate investment funds. Nevertheless, a prolonged economic downturn may adversely affect the operations of the Company's tenants and their cash flows. If a tenant were to default on its lease obligations, the Company's income would decrease, its distributions would likely be reduced and the value of its properties might decline. ITEM 7A.

The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AEI Income & Growth Fund 25 LLC as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. /s/Boulay, Heutmaker, Zibell & Co.

AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 25 LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009 (1) Organization - AEI Income & Growth Fund 25 LLC ("Company"), a Limited Liability Company, was formed on June 24, 2002 to acquire and lease commercial properties to operating tenants. The Company's operations are managed by AEI Fund Management XXI, Inc. ("AFM"), the Managing Member. Robert P. Johnson, the President and sole director of AFM, serves as the Special Managing Member. AFM is a wholly owned subsidiary of AEI Capital Corporation of which Mr. Johnson is the majority shareholder. AEI Fund Management, Inc. ("AEI"), an affiliate of AFM, performs the administrative and operating functions for the Company. The terms of the offering called for a subscription price of $1,000 per LLC Unit, payable on acceptance of the offer. The Company commenced operations on September 11, 2003 when minimum subscriptions of 1,500 LLC Units ($1,500,000) were accepted. The offering terminated May 12, 2005, when the extended offering period expired. The Company received subscriptions for 42,434.763 Units. Under the terms of the Operating Agreement, the Limited Members and Managing Members contributed funds of $42,434,763 and $1,000, respectively. The Company shall continue until December 31, 2053, unless dissolved, terminated and liquidated prior to that date. During operations, any Net Cash Flow, as defined, which the Managing Members determine to distribute will be distributed 97% to the Limited Members and 3% to the Managing Members. Distributions to Limited Members will be made pro rata by Units. Any Net Proceeds of Sale, as defined, from the sale or financing of properties which the Managing Members determine to distribute will, after provisions for debts and reserves, be paid in the following manner: (i) first, 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members until the Limited Members receive an amount equal to: (a) their Adjusted Capital Contribution plus (b) an amount equal to 7% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not previously distributed from Net Cash Flow; (ii) any remaining balance will be distributed 90% to the Limited Members and 10% to the Managing Members. Distributions to the Limited Members will be made pro rata by Units. For tax purposes, profits from operations, other than profits attributable to the sale, exchange, financing, refinancing or other disposition of property, will be allocated 97% to the Limited Members and 3% to the Managing Members. Net losses from operations will be allocated 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members. AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 25 LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009 (1) Organization - (Continued) For tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing, or other disposition of property will be allocated in accordance with the Operating Agreement as follows: (i) first, to those Members with deficit balances in their capital accounts in an amount equal to the sum of such deficit balances; (ii) second, 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members until the aggregate balance in the Limited Members' capital accounts equals the sum of the Limited Members' Adjusted Capital Contributions plus an amount equal to 7% of their Adjusted Capital Contributions per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not previously allocated; (iii) third, the balance of any remaining gain will then be allocated 90% to the Limited Members and 10% to the Managing Members. Losses will be allocated 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members. The Managing Members are not required to currently fund a deficit capital balance. Upon liquidation of the Company or withdrawal by a Managing Member, the Managing Members will contribute to the Company an amount equal to the lesser of the deficit balances in their capital accounts or 1.01% of the total capital contributions of the Limited Members over the amount previously contributed by the Managing Members. (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Financial Statement Presentation The accounts of the Company are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting for both federal income tax purposes and financial reporting purposes. Accounting Estimates Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and assumptions may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items, subject to such estimates and assumptions, include the carrying value of investments in real estate. The Company regularly assesses whether market events and conditions indicate that it is reasonably possible to recover the carrying amounts of its investments in real estate from future operations and sales. A change in those market events and conditions could have a material effect on the carrying amount of its real estate. AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 25 LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009 (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - (Continued) Cash Concentrations of Credit Risk The Company's cash is deposited in one financial institution and at times during the year it may exceed FDIC insurance limits. Receivables Credit terms are extended to tenants in the normal course of business. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and, generally, requires no collateral. Receivables are recorded at their estimated net realizable value. The Company follows a policy of providing an allowance for doubtful accounts; however, based on historical experience, and its evaluation of the current status of receivables, the Company is of the belief that such accounts, if any, will be collectible in all material respects and thus an allowance is not necessary. Accounts are considered past due if payment is not made on a timely basis in accordance with the Company's credit terms. Receivables considered uncollectible are written off. Income Taxes The income or loss of the Company for federal income tax reporting purposes is includable in the income tax returns of the Members. In general, no recognition has been given to income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. The tax return and the amount of distributable Company income or loss are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities. If such an examination results in changes to distributable Company income or loss, the taxable income of the members would be adjusted accordingly. Primarily due to its tax status as a partnership, the Company has no significant tax uncertainties that require recognition or disclosure. Revenue Recognition The Company's real estate is leased under net leases, classified as operating leases. The leases provide for base annual rental payments payable in monthly installments. The Company recognizes rental revenue according to the terms of the individual leases. For leases that contain stated rental increases, the increases are recognized in the year in which they are effective. Contingent rental payments are recognized when the contingencies on which the payments are based are satisfied and the rental payments become due under the terms of the leases. AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 25 LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009 (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - (Continued) Investments in Real Estate The Company purchases properties and records them at cost. The Company tests real estate for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. For properties the Company will hold and operate, it compares the carrying amount of the property to the estimated probability-weighted future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the property and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the property, the Company recognizes an impairment loss by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property exceeds the fair value of the property. For properties held for sale, the Company determines whether impairment has occurred by comparing the property's estimated fair value less cost to sell to its current carrying value. If the carrying value is greater than the net realizable value, an impairment loss is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the property to its net realizable value. Prior to January 1, 2009, the Company capitalized as Investments in Real Estate certain costs incurred in the review and acquisition of the properties. The costs were allocated to the land, buildings and equipment. For acquisitions completed on or after January 1, 2009, acquisition-related transaction costs were expensed as incurred as a result of the Company adopting new guidance on business combinations that expands the scope of acquisition accounting. The buildings and equipment of the Company are depreciated using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes based on estimated useful lives of 25 years and 5 years, respectively. Upon complete disposal of a property or classification of a property as Real Estate Held for Sale, the Company includes the operating results and sale of the property in discontinued operations. In addition, the Company reclassifies the prior periods' operating results of the property to discontinued operations. The Company accounts for properties owned as tenants-in- common with affiliated entities and/or unrelated third parties using the proportionate consolidation method. Each tenant-in-common owns a separate, undivided interest in the properties. Any tenant-in-common that holds more than a 50% interest does not control decisions over the other tenant-in-common interests. The financial statements reflect only this Company's percentage share of the properties' land, building and equipment, liabilities, revenues and expenses. AEI INCOME & GROWTH FUND 25 LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009 (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - (Continued) The Company's properties are subject to environmental laws and regulations adopted by various governmental entities in the jurisdiction in which the properties are located. These laws could require the Company to investigate and remediate the effects of the release or disposal of hazardous materials at these locations if found. For each property, an environmental assessment is completed prior to acquisition. In addition, the lease agreements typically strictly prohibit the production, handling, or storage of hazardous materials (except where incidental to the tenant's business such as use of cleaning supplies) in violation of applicable law to restrict environmental and other damage. Environmental liabilities are recorded when it is determined the liability is probable and the costs can reasonably be estimated. There were no environmental issues noted or liabilities recorded at December 31, 2010 and 2009. Fair Value Measurements As of December 31, 2010, the Company has no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis or nonrecurring basis. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Management has reviewed recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not expect the implementation of these pronouncements to have a significant effect on the Company's financial statements.

(4) Investments in Real Estate - The Company leases its properties to various tenants under net leases, classified as operating leases. Under a net lease, the tenant is responsible for real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs and operating expenses for the property. For some leases, the Company is responsible for repairs to the structural components of the building, the roof, and the parking lot. At the time the properties were acquired, the remaining primary lease terms varied from 10 to 20 years. The leases provide the tenants with two to four five-year renewal options subject to the same terms and conditions as the primary term.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its President and Chief Financial Officer, the Managing Member of the Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")). Based upon that evaluation, the President and Chief Financial Officer of the Managing Member concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the President and Chief Financial Officer of the Managing Member, in a manner that allows timely decisions regarding required disclosure. (b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. (i) Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. The Managing Member, through its management, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a- 15(f) under the Exchange Act, and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our system of internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management of the Managing Member; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Management of the Managing Member performed an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 based upon criteria in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). Based on our assessment, management of the Managing Member determined that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010 based on the criteria in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the COSO. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. (Continued) This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report. (ii) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. During the most recent period covered by this report, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION. None. PART III ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE. The registrant is a limited liability company and has no officers, directors, or direct employees. The Managing Members manage and control the Company's affairs and have general responsibility and the ultimate authority in all matters affecting the Company's business. The Managing Members are AEI Fund Management XXI, Inc. ("AFM"), the Managing Member, and Robert P. Johnson, Chief Executive Officer, President and sole director of AFM, the Special Managing Member. AFM is a wholly owned subsidiary of AEI Capital Corporation of which Mr. Johnson is the majority shareholder. AFM has only one senior financial executive, its Chief Financial Officer. The Chief Financial Officer reports directly to Mr. Johnson and is accountable for his actions to Mr. Johnson. Although Mr. Johnson and AFM require that all of their personnel, including the Chief Financial Officer, engage in honest and ethical conduct, ensure full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure, comply with all applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations, and report to Mr. Johnson any deviation from these principles, because the organization is composed of only approximately 35 individuals, because the management of a company by an entity that has different interests in distributions and income than investors involves numerous conflicts of interest that must be resolved on a daily basis, and because the ultimate decision maker in all instances is Mr. Johnson, AFM has not adopted a formal code of conduct. Instead, the materials pursuant to which investors purchase Units disclose these conflicts of interest in detail and Mr. Johnson, as the CEO and sole director of AFM, resolves conflicts to the best of his ability, consistent with his fiduciary obligations to AFM and the fiduciary obligations of AFM to the Company. The director and officers of AFM are as follows: ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE. (Continued) Robert P. Johnson, age 66, is Chief Executive Officer, President and sole director and has held these positions since the formation of AFM in August 1994, and has been elected to continue in these positions until December 2011. From 1970 to the present, he has been employed exclusively in the investment industry, specializing in limited partnership investments. In that capacity, he has been involved in the development, analysis, marketing and management of public and private investment programs investing in net lease properties as well as public and private investment programs investing in energy development. Since 1971, Mr. Johnson has been the president, a director and a registered principal of AEI Securities, Inc., which is registered with the SEC as a securities broker-dealer, is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and is a member of the Security Investors Protection Corporation (SIPC). Mr. Johnson has been president, a director and the principal shareholder of AEI Fund Management, Inc., a real estate management company founded by him, since 1978. Mr. Johnson is currently a general partner or principal of the general partner in nine limited partnerships and a managing member in five LLCs. Patrick W. Keene, age 51, is Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary and has held these positions since January 22, 2003 and has been elected to continue in these positions until December 2011. Mr. Keene has been employed by AEI Fund Management, Inc. and affiliated entities since 1986. Prior to being elected to the positions above, he was Controller of the various entities. From 1982 to 1986, Mr. Keene was with KPMG Peat Marwick Certified Public Accountants, first as an auditor and later as a tax manager. Mr. Keene is responsible for all accounting functions of AFM and the registrant. Since Mr. Johnson serves as the Special Managing Member of the Company, as well as the sole director of AFM, all of the duties that might be assigned to an audit committee are assigned to Mr. Johnson. Mr. Johnson is not an audit committee financial expert, as defined. As an officer and majority owner, through a parent company, of AFM, and as the Special Managing Member, Mr. Johnson is not a "disinterested director" and may be subject to a number of conflicts of interests in his capacity as sole director of AFM. Before the independent auditors are engaged, Mr. Johnson, as the sole director of AFM, approves all audit-related fees, and all permissible nonaudit fees, for services of our auditors. Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance Under federal securities laws, the directors and officers of the Managing Member of the Company, and any beneficial owner of more than 10% of a class of equity securities of the Company, are required to report their ownership of the Company's equity securities and any changes in such ownership to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). Specific due dates for these reports have been established by the Commission, and the Company is required to disclose in this Annual Report on 10- K any delinquent filing of such reports and any failure to file such reports during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. Based upon information provided by officers and directors of the Managing Member, all officers, directors and 10% owners filed all reports on a timely basis in the 2010 fiscal year. ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION. The Managing Member and affiliates are reimbursed at cost for all services performed on behalf of the registrant and for all third party expenses paid on behalf of the registrant. The cost for services performed on behalf of the registrant is based on actual time spent performing such services plus an overhead burden. These services include organizing the registrant and arranging for the offer and sale of Units, reviewing properties for acquisition and rendering administrative, property management and property sales services. The amount and nature of such payments are detailed in Item 13 of this annual report on Form 10- K. ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS. The following table sets forth information pertaining to the ownership of the Units by each person known by the Company to beneficially own 5% or more of the Units, by each Managing Member, and by each officer or director of the Managing Member as of February 28, 2011: Name and Address Number of Percent of Beneficial Owner Units Held of Class AEI Fund Management XXI, Inc. 0 0% Robert P. Johnson 0 0% Patrick W. Keene 0 0% Address for all: 1300 Wells Fargo Place 30 East 7th Street, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101 The Managing Members know of no holders of more than 5% of the outstanding Units. ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE. The registrant, AFM and its affiliates have common management and utilize the same facilities. As a result, certain administrative expenses are allocated among these related entities. All of such activities and any other transactions involving the affiliates of the Managing Member of the registrant are governed by, and are conducted in conformity with, the limitations set forth in the Operating Agreement of the registrant. Reference is made to Note 3 of the Financial Statements, as presented, and is incorporated herein by reference, for details of related party transactions for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. Neither the registrant, nor the Managing Member of the registrant, has a board of directors consisting of any members who are "independent." The sole director of the Managing Member, Robert P. Johnson, is also the Special Managing Member of the registrant, and is the Chief Executive Officer, and indirectly the principal owner, of the Managing Member. Accordingly, there is no disinterested board, or other functioning body, that reviews related party transactions, or the transactions between the registrant and the Managing Members, except as performed in connection with the audit of its financial statements. ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE. (Continued) The limitations included in the Operating Agreement require that the cumulative reimbursements to the Managing Members and their affiliates for certain expenses will not exceed an amount equal to the sum of (i) 20% of capital contributions, (ii) 1% of gross revenues, plus an initial leasing fee of 3% of gross revenues for the first five years of the original term of each lease, (iii) 3% of Net Proceeds of Sale, and (iv) 10% of Net Cash Flow less the Net Cash Flow actually distributed to the Managing Members.
