CUSIP No. 008492100

This Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D (“ Amendment No. 2 ”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed by Inland American Real Estate Trust, Inc. and Inland Investment Advisors, Inc. with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 22, 2006 (the “ Initial Statement ” and, together with Amendment No. 1 filed on August 7, 2007 and Amendment No. 2, the “ Schedule 13D ”), in connection with the purchase of an additional 87,100 Shares. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment without being defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Initial Statement.

Item 2. Identity and Background
Appendix
A to Item 2 with respect to Identity and Background items (2)(a), (b), (c)
and (f) of each of the executive officers and directors of Inland American,
which information is incorporated by reference into this Item 2, is hereby
amended and restated as filed with this Amendment No. 2.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
Item 3 is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the
following information: Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, Adviser has
purchased on behalf of Inland American an additional 87,100 Shares for an
aggregate price of $2,611,202.85 in approximately 29 open-market transactions
from August 6, 2007 through January 4, 2008.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its
entirety with the following information:

incorporated herein by reference. See
response corresponding to row 13 of the cover page listing Inland American as

officers and directors of the Adviser beneficially owns such shares. None of the executive officers or directors
listed on Appendix A or Appendix B beneficially owns any Shares of the
Company. (b) See responses corresponding to rows
seven through ten of the cover page listing Inland American as the Reporting

vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote, sole
power to dispose or to direct the disposition, and shared power to dispose or

Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer |
| | Item 6 is hereby amended and restated in its
entirety as follows: The Adviser purchased the Shares for the account
of Inland American pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement. The Advisory Agreement provides that Adviser
has full discretionary authority with respect to the investment and
reinvestment of the assets of the account of Inland American maintained with
Adviser, subject to certain investment guidelines that Inland American may
provide from time to time. These
guidelines take effect generally fifteen days after notice to Adviser. The Advisory Agreement also provides that
the Adviser has the power as Inland American’s proxy and attorney-in-fact to
vote, tender or direct the voting or tendering of all of the assets of the
account of Inland American. Either
party may terminate the Advisory Agreement upon thirty days’ written
notice. The Advisory Agreement is
attached to the Initial Statement as Exhibit 7.1. Schedule A to the Advisory Agreement has
been amended, and the amended Schedule A, dated August 3, 2007, is attached

CUSIP No. 008492100
Because the services provided by investment
advisers to clients generally do not create an agreement between or among
that adviser and its clients to acquire, hold, vote or dispose of Shares,
Inland American and Adviser in accordance with instruction (2) to the cover
page of Schedule 13D do not affirm that they are acting as a “group” for
purposes of Section 13(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”); however, in accordance with the perceived
statutory purpose of Section 13(d) to inform investors as to accumulations of
an issuer’s securities and because of the relationships among the Reporting
Persons described in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have filed this
Schedule 13D jointly pursuant the rules promulgated under Section 13(d),
including Rule 13d-1(k). Except as
otherwise described herein, there are no contracts, arrangements,
understandings or relationships, legal or otherwise, among the persons named
in Item 2 and between these persons and any person with respect to any
securities of the Company, including but not limited to transfer or voting of
any of the securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option
arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or
loss or the giving or withholding of proxies.
Adviser and Inland American are separate legal entities. IREIC sponsored Inland American.
Item 7. Material to Be Filed as Exhibits
Item 7 of the Initial Statement is hereby amended
and supplemented by the addition of the following exhibits: The amended Schedule A, dated August 3, 2007, to
the Advisory Agreement, dated November 15, 2005, is attached to this
Amendment No. 2 as Exhibit 7.1 and replaces in its entirety Schedule A in
Exhibit 7.1 to the Initial Statement. The Joint Filing Agreement is attached to this
Amendment No. 2 as Exhibit 7.2.
