Re: Rights Offering

Ladies and Gentlemen,

This Backstop Rights Offering Agreement (this “Letter Agreement”) is entered into pursuant to and in connection with that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of even date herewith (the “Loan Agreement”), by and among BioFuel Energy Corp. (“BFE Corp.”), Greenlight Capital Offshore Partners, Greenlight Capital, L.P., Greenlight Capital Qualified, L.P., Greenlight Reinsurance, Ltd. (collectively, “Greenlight”), the other lenders identified as lenders on Schedule 1.1(A) thereto (together with Greenlight, the “Lenders”), and Greenlight APE, LLC, in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders. Under the Loan Agreement, the Lenders have agreed to make a term loan to BFE Corp. in the aggregate principal amount of $19,420,620 (the “Bridge Loan”).

This Letter Agreement sets forth the parties’ respective obligations with respect to a registered rights offering described herein (the “Rights Offering”) of rights to purchase shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of BFE Corp. (“Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”). The characteristics of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are more fully described on Exhibit A to this Letter Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Letter Agreement, the parties hereto intend that the Rights Offering shall provide for anticipated gross proceeds sufficient to fully pay off, at a minimum, all principal and accrued but unpaid interest of the Bridge Loan and the Mezzanine Loan Agreement (as defined in the Loan Agreement) and the Cargill Payment (as defined below).

It is understood and agreed that, in lieu of issuing fractional shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock upon exercise of the Rights as described herein, BFE Corp. may elect to issue depositary shares, each representing a fractional interest in a share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, so long as the economic, conversion and other features of the fractional shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are effectively replicated through the issuance of such depositary shares.

In consideration of the premises and respective covenants and agreements set forth in this Letter Agreement and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties agrees as follows:

1. Registration Statement. BFE Corp. hereby agrees to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to commence and complete the Rights Offering, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Specifically, BFE Corp. hereby commits to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to (i) file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 for the Rights Offering (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on or before October 18, 2010; and (ii) cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective on or before January 24, 2011 and to remain effective throughout the entire offering period without interruption. The offering period for the Rights Offering shall be equal to five (5) weeks. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a failure to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective on or before January 24, 2011 despite the use of commercially reasonable best efforts to do so by BFE Corp. shall not be deemed a violation or failure to comply with this Letter Agreement for purposes of Paragraph 8 hereof nor an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement; provided, however that if BFE Corp. has not used such commercially reasonable best efforts then there shall be deemed to be a failure to have complied with the conditions in Paragraph 8 hereof.

2. Terms of Rights Offering. In connection with the Rights Offering, BFE Corp. shall distribute at no charge to each of the existing holders (collectively, the “Eligible Common Stockholders”) of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of BFE Corp. (“Common Stock”) and Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class B Common Stock” and, together with the Common Stock, the “BFE Common Stock”) rights (the “Rights”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, at a per share offering price equal to $10.00 per share (the “Per Preferred Share Purchase Price”). Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be convertible upon the terms described in Exhibit A to this Letter Agreement into that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the Per Preferred Share Purchase Price by the Rights Price (as defined below) (the “Conversion Ratio”). All Eligible Common Stockholders shall be eligible to participate in the Rights Offering pro rata based on each Eligible Common Stockholder’s ownership of Common Stock at the time of the Rights Offering, and each Eligible Common Stockholder that exercises all of its Rights may oversubscribe for up to all of its pro rata share of unsubscribed Rights. For purposes of this Letter Agreement, “pro rata” shall mean (x) the aggregate number of shares of BFE Common Stock held by each Eligible Common Stockholder divided by (y) the aggregate number of shares of BFE Common Stock outstanding.

Each Right shall entitle the holder thereof to acquire, at a price equal to the Rights Price, a number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock equal to the fraction determined by dividing 4,000,000 by the number of Rights offered in the Rights Offering. The number of Rights offered in the Rights Offering shall be determined by dividing the offering size of the Rights Offering by the Rights Price. The offering size of the Rights Offering will be the amount equal to the amount sufficient to pay off all amounts owed at the time, including accrued and unpaid interest, under the Bridge Loan and the Mezzanine Loan Agreement and to make the Cargill Payment (as defined below), including certain fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Rights Offering. “Rights Price” shall mean the lesser of (A) a dollar amount equal to 25% of the average per share closing price of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading days immediately following the initial filing of the Registration Statement and (B) $0.75.

3. Use of Offering Proceeds. The Offering Proceeds shall be used to (i) first, pay off the Bridge Loan; (ii) second, pay off all indebtedness under the Mezzanine Loan Agreement; (iii) third, make the Cargill Payment; and (iv) the remainder, if any, for general corporate purposes.

4. Basic Commitment. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations described herein, each of the parties listed on Exhibit B hereto (collectively, the “Backstop Parties”) hereby agrees to participate in the Rights Offering for its full pro rata share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Basic Commitment”).

5. Backstop Commitment. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations described herein, to provide assurance that the Rights Offering will be fully subscribed, the Backstop Parties severally and not jointly commit to purchase, in the respective percentages set forth on Exhibit B hereto (the “Commitment Percentages”), all of the additional shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock not sold to other Eligible Common Stockholders in the Rights Offering (the “Backstop Commitment”).

6. Backstop Reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Backstop Parties shall reduce the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that the Backstop Parties would otherwise be obligated to purchase pursuant to the Backstop Commitment and/or the Basic Commitment, or (ii) BFE Corp. shall reduce the aggregate number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that are offered in the Rights Offering, in the event the Backstop Parties determine, in its sole discretion, but after consultation with BFE Corp., that consummation of the Rights Offering, the Basic Commitment and/or the Backstop Commitment would result in adverse tax, legal or regulatory consequences to BFE Corp. and/or any Backstop Party (“Adverse Consequences”) to the extent (and only to the extent) it deems necessary in its sole discretion, but after consultation with BFE Corp., to avoid Adverse Consequences (a “Backstop Reduction”). The reduction in the amount of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that the Backstop Parties are obligated to purchase in the event of a Backstop Reduction, would be referred to as the “Shortfall Amount”. In the event of a Backstop Reduction, the Rights Offering shall nonetheless proceed and the parties shall use their respective commercially reasonable best efforts to structure and consummate an alternative transaction to take the place of the issuance of the Shortfall Amount that, combined with the Rights Offering, would (i) permit BFE Corp. to (A) pay off the Bridge Loan; (B) pay off all indebtedness under the Mezzanine Loan Agreement; and (C) make the Cargill Cash Payment (an “Alternative Financing Transaction”) and (ii) be structured so as to preserve the economic benefits to the parties as if the Rights Offering had been consummated in full in accordance with the terms set forth herein without otherwise giving effect to a Backstop Reduction provided that each Backstop Party shall not be obligated to fund an amount in excess of the amount represented by its Backstop Commitment.

7. Consideration. In consideration of the Backstop Commitment, BFE Corp. shall, on the date hereof, pay to the Backstop Parties their pro rata portion of an aggregate amount in cash equal to 4% of the total purchase price for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock offered in the Rights Offering to Eligible Common Stockholders other than the Backstop Parties in the Rights Offering (the “Option Premium”), assuming for this purpose that the total purchase price for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock offered in the Rights Offering would be $40,000,000. To the extent that the total purchase price for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock offered in the Rights Offering is more than $40,000,000, BFE Corp. shall make an additional payment to the Backstop Parties in an amount equal to 4% of such excess amount (excluding for calculative purposes, any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock purchased by the Lenders). Subject to the provisions below, the Option Premium shall be deemed fully earned upon execution of this Letter Agreement, regardless of whether the Rights Offering is consummated or whether the Rights Offering is fully subscribed. BFE Corp. agrees that the Option Premium shall be nonrefundable and that the Option Premium and any other payments hereunder shall be paid without setoff or recoupment and shall not be subject to defense or offset on account of any claim, defense or counterclaim. The Option Premium and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be paid in immediately available funds on the date hereof.

8. Conditions. The Backstop Parties’ obligations to purchase any securities pursuant to the Basic Commitment and/or the Backstop Commitment are subject to the following conditions: (i) the execution and delivery of mutually satisfactory definitive documentation among BFE Corp. and the Backstop Parties which incorporates the terms set forth herein (the “Definitive Agreements”); (ii) the satisfaction or waiver by the Backstop Parties of the conditions to the Backstop Parties’ obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Definitive Agreements as may be agreed upon in the Definitive Documents; (iii) BFE Corp. shall be in compliance with its obligations under the Loan Agreement and all other transaction documents relating to the Bridge Loan in all material respects; (iv) there has not occurred any material adverse change, or any development involving a prospective material adverse change, since the date hereof in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business, operations or properties of BFE Corp. and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole (a “Material Adverse Change”); (v) there not having occurred after the date hereof at any time prior to the funding of the Basic Commitment and/or the Backstop Commitment any material disruption or material adverse change in the financial, banking or capital markets that, in the commercially reasonable judgment of the Backstop Parties, would have a material adverse impact on the success of the Rights Offering; (vi) all required approvals and consents shall have been obtained; (vii) all representations and warranties made by BFE Corp. in this Letter Agreement being true and correct in all material respects; (viii) BFE Corp. shall be in compliance with all covenants and other provisions of this Letter Agreement in all material respects; (ix) the Cargill Acknowledgement Letter (as defined below) being in full force and effect; (x) each of the Executive Management Waiver Agreements (as defined in the Loan Agreement) being in full force and effect; (xi) no actions, suits or proceedings shall be pending or threatened that challenge any Definitive Agreement, this Letter Agreement, the Loan Agreement, the Cargill Acknowledgement Letter or any related agreement; (xii) the Backstop Parties having been reasonably satisfied with the Certificate of Designations setting forth the rights and preferences of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that reflects the terms set forth on Exhibit A hereto and other customary terms and provisions as determined by Greenlight in its reasonable discretion; (xiii) the receipt by the Backstop Parties of a legal opinion from Cravath, Swaine & ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP with respect to customary matters in a form satisfactory to Greenlight in its reasonable discretion; (xiv) BFE Corp. shall not have entered into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle or other agreement relating to any competing plan, proposal, offer or transaction with a third party other than Greenlight materially inconsistent with this Letter Agreement; and (xv) the Board of Directors of BFE Corp. shall have adopted Section 16b-3 Resolutions related to the issuance to the Backstop Parties of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Common Stock and warrants, the form of which shall be satisfactory to Greenlight in its sole discretion.

BFE Corp. has entered into an agreement, dated as of September 23, 2010 (the “Cargill Acknowledgement Letter”) with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and its affiliates (collectively, “Cargill”), which provides that upon payment (the “Cargill Payment”) of $2,800,828 (plus accrued and unpaid interest on such amount as of the date of payment pursuant to the agreement, dated January 14, 2009, by and between BFE Corp. and certain of its affiliates and Cargill (the “Cargill Settlement Agreement”)) from the Offering Proceeds, Cargill shall forgive the remaining Payable (as defined in the Cargill Settlement Agreement) in exchange for shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in an amount equal to the amount of the remaining Payable, which amount shall be converted into Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at a conversion price on an as converted to Common Stock basis equal to the average of the volume weighted averages of the trading prices for the prior ten (10) day trading period of the Common Stock, ending on the second trading day immediately preceding the date the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is issued.

The Letter Agreement, and the obligations of the parties hereunder, may be terminated by mutual agreement between the parties.

20. Alternative Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Letter Agreement, BFE Corp. shall be permitted to solicit, participate in, initiate or facilitate discussions or negotiations with, or provide any information to, any person or group of persons concerning any alternative equity financing or other transaction that would result in the (a) repayment in full of all amounts outstanding under the Bridge Loan, (b) repayment in full of all amounts under the Mezzanine Loan Agreement and (c) satisfy all obligations under the Cargill Acknowledgement Letter (a “Substitute Transaction”). If, as a result of such activities, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) (excluding any Board member that is an affiliate of Greenlight) determines in good faith after consultation with outside legal counsel and independent financial advisors that (i) it has the opportunity to enter into a Substitute Transaction that will be consummated within a timeframe that is not materially longer than the anticipated timeframe for the Rights Offering but in no event later than February 1, 2011, and (ii) such Substitute Transaction is more favorable to the holders of Company Common Stock (excluding benefits arising to the Backstop Parties by virtue of the Backstop Commitment) than the Rights Offering (taking into account all the terms and conditions of such Substitute Transaction that the Board deems relevant including, without limitation, any break-up fee provisions, expense reimbursement provisions, conditions to closing and availability of necessary financing) and is reasonably likely to be consummated prior to February 1, 2011, then the Company shall deliver three (3) business days prior notice to Greenlight of its intention to enter into such Substitute Transaction, together with reasonable details concerning the terms and conditions of such Substitute Transaction. After such three (3) business day period, (x) the Board shall be permitted to approve the Substitute Transaction, (y) BFE Corp. shall be permitted to enter into such Substitute Transaction and (z) BFE Corp. shall be permitted to terminate this Letter Agreement; so long as in each case (A) the Substitute Transaction continues to meet the requirements of clause (ii) of this Paragraph 20 and (B) upon execution of definitive documentation relating to a Substitute Transaction, BFE will pay to the Backstop Parties an aggregate break-up fee (to be allocated among the Backstop Parties in accordance with their Commitment Percentages) a sum in cash equal to $350,000 (the “Termination Fee”). For purposes of clarity, the Option Premium shall also remain payable, in addition to the Termination Fee.

21. Entire Agreement. This Letter Agreement constitutes the entire understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and replaces and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written on oral, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall become effective and binding upon the mutual exchange of fully executed counterparts.

22. Stockholder Approval of Securities. BFE Corp. hereby agrees that, upon completion of the Rights Offering, it shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain stockholder approval of the authorization of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. In furtherance of, and not in limitation of the foregoing, BFE Corp. shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to file a proxy statement with the Commission for such stockholder approval by November 15, 2010 (but in any event BFE Corp. shall file such proxy statement by January 1, 2011) and use its best efforts to obtain such stockholder approval by January 24, 2010 (provided such stockholder holder approval shall not be a condition to consummation of the Rights Offering). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a failure to file such proxy statement with the Commission by November 15, 2010 despite the use of commercially reasonable best efforts to do so by BFE Corp. shall not be deemed a violation or failure to comply with this Letter Agreement for purposes of Paragraph 8 hereof nor an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement; provided, however that if BFE Corp. has not used such commercially reasonable best efforts then there shall be deemed to be a failure to have complied with the conditions in Paragraph 8 hereof.

23. Remain Public Company. BFE Corp. hereby agrees that until the Rights Offering has been completed, it shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to remain a public company with its securities publicly-traded on a national securities exchange.

24. Voting Agreement. Upon consummation of the Rights Offering, Greenlight hereby agrees to enter into a Voting Agreement with BFE Corp., the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit C, and Third Point Loan LLC agrees to enter into a Voting Agreement with BFE Corp., the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit D.

25. Due Diligence. BFE Corp. agrees to make available to the Backstop Parties all reasonably requested due diligence materials (including access to BFE Corp. personal and agents), including, without limitation, due diligence materials related to tax, regulatory and other legal items.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, please sign this letter in the space indicated below and return it to us.

Very truly yours,

Section 4.6 Headings. The article and section headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 4.7 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law principles.

Section 4.8 Amendments. The Company will amend Schedule I promptly to reflect transfers to Affiliates as contemplated by this Agreement.

Any party may, for itself only, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations of any other party under this Agreement, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of any other party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such party contained herein. Any such extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in a writing signed by the party to be bound thereby. No waiver by any party of any default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, may be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising because of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of any party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise of the same or of any other right or remedy.

Section 4.10 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement will be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof; provided that if any provision of this Agreement, as applied to any party or to any circumstance, is judicially determined not to be enforceable in accordance with its terms, the parties agree that the court judicially making such determination may modify the provision in a manner consistent with its objectives such that it is enforceable, and/or to delete specific words or phrases, and in its modified form, such provision will then be enforceable and will be enforced.

Section 4.11 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement will become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties.

Section 4.12 Construction. This Agreement has been freely and fairly negotiated among the parties. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party because of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. Any reference to any law will be deemed to refer to such law as in effect on the date hereof and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The words “include,” “includes,” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” Pronouns in masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular form will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. The parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein will have independent significance. If any party has breached any covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the party has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that the party is in breach of the first covenant.

Section 4.13 Aggregation of Stock. All Stockholder Shares owned or acquired by any Stockholder or its Affiliated Persons shall be aggregated together for the purpose of determining the availability of any right under this Agreement.

Section 4.14 Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings (such meanings to be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined):

“Affiliate” means, with respect to any Person, (i) any other Person of which securities or other ownership interests representing more than 50% of the voting interests are, at the time such determination is being made, owned, Controlled or held, directly or indirectly, by such Person or (ii) any other Person which, at the time such determination is being made, is Controlling, Controlled by or under common Control with, such Person. As used herein, “Control”, whether used as a noun or verb, refers to the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct, or cause the direction of, the management or policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities or otherwise.

“Person” means any individual, firm, corporation, company, partnership, trust, incorporated or unincorporated association, limited liability company, joint venture, joint stock company, government (or an agency or political subdivision thereof) or other entity of any kind, and shall include any successor (by merger or otherwise) of any such entity.

Section 4.15 Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules. The exhibits and schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated by reference herein and made a part hereof.
