Steve, 

The specific prefixes are exactly as depicted in the original post (the
/27s).

'sh ip eigrp top' does not show the routes as being learned locally (via
redistribution) or remotely (via eigrp announcement).

'sh ip eigrp neig' is as you would expect...RTR_A and RTR_B...passive
interface every but the cross-over interface between RTR_A and RTR_B.

'sh ip route 10.1.1.0':

RTR_A#sh ip route 10.1.1.0
Routing entry for 10.1.1.0/24
  Known via "bgp xxxxx", distance 200, metric 0, type locally generated
  Redistributing via eigrp xxxxx, rip
  Advertised by eigrp xxxxx metric 10000 750 255 1 1500
                rip metric 4
  Routing Descriptor Blocks:
  * directly connected, via Null0  <----aggregate-address
      Route metric is 0, traffic share count is 1
      AS Hops 0

RTR_B#sh ip route 10.1.1.0
Routing entry for 10.1.1.0/24
  Known via "bgp xxxxx", distance 200, metric 0, type locally generated
  Redistributing via eigrp xxxxx, rip
  Advertised by eigrp xxxxx metric 10000 750 255 1 1500
                rip metric 10
  Routing Descriptor Blocks:
  * directly connected, via Null0  <----aggregate-address
      Route metric is 0, traffic share count is 1
      AS Hops 0
