WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, CES is a commodity trading advisor and introducing broker registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) and a member of the National Futures Association;

WHEREAS, Client desires to obtain the benefit of CES’ knowledge and experience by retaining the Advisor to provide energy risk management advice (the “Advisory Program”);

WHEREAS, CES desires to provide such advisory services upon the terms and conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, Client intends to construct, own and operate a commercial facility at that will produce denatured fuel-grade ethanol (as such plant may be expanded or upgraded according to the terms of Corn Supply Agreement, the “Ethanol Facility”), which Ethanol Facility is anticipated to produce approximately 100 million gallons per year; and

WHEREAS, Cargill and Client are parties to that certain Base Contract for the Purchase and Sale of Natural Gas dated as of the date hereof (together with the related ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Incorporated Special Provisions NAESB, the “NAESB Agreement”), pursuant to which Cargill has agreed to supply Client with Gas (as defined therein) for operation of Client’s Ethanol Facility.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Terms and Conditions. The Parties have executed a Master Services Agreement of even date herewith (as amended from time to time, the “Master Agreement”). The terms and conditions of the Master Agreement are incorporated herein by this reference. To the extent any provision of the Master Agreement conflicts with any provision contained herein, the provision contained herein will control. Terms capitalized but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them by the Master Agreement.

2. Advisory Services. Client hereby retains CES to provide risk management advisory services designed to assist Client in reducing its exposure to volatility in Gas markets, and ultimately, to reduce Client’s overall Gas costs (the “Advisory Services”). CES will provide such advice based in part on market direction information received from energy traders and marketers employed by Cargill. CES’ advice will consist of a customized analysis of Client’s

energy portfolio, CES’ view of market conditions and trends and related information, and corresponding advice regarding the use of risk management tools such as futures transactions, swaps, futures options, futures and futures option derivatives, also known as over-the-counter transactions (“OTC Transactions”) and/or combinations thereof (“Risk Management Transactions”). CES, together with the Client, has developed a customized gas purchase and hedging strategy and budget for the Client which includes (among other matters) the use of OTC Transactions and Risk Management Transactions, and which covers an annual operational period as specified therein. The hedging strategy and budget will be reviewed and updated by mutual agreement of the Parties at least sixty (60) days prior to the expected Start-Up Date for the Ethanol Facility, and thereafter on an annual basis at the times specified therein. The approved strategy and budget, as so updated, is referred to in this Agreement as the “Risk Management Plan”.

3. Term of Agreement; Early Termination.

(a) The term of this Agreement shall be an initial period of ten (10) years commencing on the Start-Up Date for the Ethanol Facility (the “Initial Term”), subject however to early termination pursuant to Section 3(b), Section 3(c), or Section 15 hereof. At the request of either Party, during the six-month period prior to the end of the fifth (5^th) year of the Initial Term, the Parties shall meet and review the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the compensation paid to CES hereunder, and, if necessary or appropriate in the opinion of either Party, enter into good faith discussions regarding potential modifications as necessary or appropriate to ensure that this Agreement is fair and equitable to both Parties. It is understood and agreed, however, that even if the Parties are unable to agree on any modifications, this Agreement will nevertheless remain in effect for the remainder of the Initial Term.

(b) Client will have the right to terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Initial Term, if the average of the “Monthly Actual Risk Management Price” (as defined in Exhibit A) in any six (6) consecutive calendar month period during the Initial Term exceeds by more than [*] percent ([*]%) the average of the “Monthly Benchmarked Price” (as defined in Exhibit A) for natural gas recorded during this same period. In the event Client desires to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this paragraph, Client shall provide written notice of termination to CES within sixty (60) days after the end of the six (6)-month period giving rise to the termination right, and the written notice of termination shall specify a termination date no earlier than fifteen (15) days after the date of the termination notice. As promptly as practicable after any such termination, all outstanding Risk Management Transactions between the two parties shall be financially settled as of the termination date pursuant to the terms of the agreements governing those transactions, and such termination shall not relieve Client of its obligation to pay to CES any amounts due CES under this Agreement.

(c) CES or Cargill may terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Initial Term under the circumstances and in the matter provided in Section 3 of the Master Agreement.

15. Events of Default and Termination Upon Event of Default.

(a) Events of Default. The occurrence at any time with respect to a party of any of the following events constitutes an event of default (an “Event of Default”) with respect to such party:

(i) Failure to Pay. Failure by the party to make when due, any payment, including any undisputed portion of an invoice, under this Agreement if such failure is not remedied on or before the next business day after notice of such failure is given to the party; provided, however, that it shall not constitute an event of default under this Agreement for the party to fail to make a payment while such party’s obligation to make such payment is being contested in good faith by such party provided that any undisputed portion of such payment has been made;

(ii) Breach of Agreement. Failure by the party to comply in any material respect with any provision of or perform any material obligation (other than an obligation to make any payment under this Agreement) to be complied with or performed by the party in accordance with this Agreement if such failure

No termination of this Agreement shall, however, relieve any party of the obligation to pay any other party any sums due such other party under this Agreement.

(d) Meaning of Party. For purposes of this Section 15, the term Party shall mean, on the one hand, CES and Cargill collectively, and, on the other hand, Client, it being understood that in the case of an Event of Default with respect to CES or Cargill as the Defaulting Party only Client may be considered to be the Nondefaulting Party, and in the case of an Event of Default with respect to Client as the Defaulting Party both CES and Cargill may be considered to be the Nondefaulting Party.

16. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and both of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

EXHIBIT A

COMPENSATION AND HEDGING PARAMETERS -

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT OPTION

As compensation for CES’ services provided under the Portfolio Management Option as specifically described herein, Client shall pay CES as follows:

Client shall pay CES a monthly performance incentive fee (the “Performance Fee”) equivalent to [*] percent ([*]%) of the “Economic Value” created by CES’s services for such month. For purposes of calculating the Performance Fee, “Economic Value” means the positive difference between the Monthly Benchmarked Costs and the Monthly Actual Risk Management Costs.

For purposes of the foregoing, the following definitions shall apply:

“Monthly Actual Risk Management Price” means (for each delivery month) the sum of the actual Nymex related price and the actual basis differential for Colorado Interstate GasCo./RockyMountains price achieved by Cargill.

“Monthly Actual Risk Management Costs” means (for each delivery month) the product of (1) the actual “Monthly Actual Risk Management Price” multiplied by (2) the consumption forecast (expressed in MMBtu’s) communicated by Client to CES in writing three months prior to the beginning of the delivery month, plus any third party transaction costs charged to the Client’s account and attributed to the month.

“Monthly Benchmarked Costs” means (for each delivery month) the product of the Monthly Benchmarked Price multiplied by the consumption forecast (expressed in MMBtu’s) communicated by Client to CES in writing three months prior to the beginning of the delivery month.

“Monthly Benchmarked Price” for any particular delivery month means the weighted arithmetic average of the arithmetic average of the sum of the daily Nymex settlement price and the offered price for the basis differential at Colorado Interstate GasCo./RockyMountains for natural gas recorded over the six (6)-month period starting the later of (a) six (6) months prior to the expiry day of the delivery month contract at issue, or (b) the execution date of the Gas Risk Management Advisory Agreement.

Payment procedures:

Proceeds due Client from Cargill or due Cargill from Client with respect to Risk Management Transactions entered into by such parties will be accrued monthly.

Reasonable and customary third party transaction costs, if any, incurred by CES or Cargill for Risk Management Transactions will be for the account of Client and reflected

* Certain confidential information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A-1

in the aforementioned proceeds. Such third party costs will be defined and limited in the Risk Management Plan.

The Performance Fee, if earned, will be calculated monthly, and shall be invoiced monthly by CES or Cargill. Each invoice shall contain such information as mutually agreed by the Parties as necessary to calculate the Performance Fee earned for the previous month. Each invoice shall be paid by Client within 30 days after it is received by Client, and may be settled by Cargill at any time after the fifth Business Day after the invoice is received by Client (or any earlier or later date as agreed to by CES or Cargill and Client) by netting pursuant to Section 6 of the Master Agreement (provided Client will not be considered to be in default unless the invoice is not paid within the 30-day period or if within the 30-day period the invoice is settled by netting pursuant to Section 6 of the Master Agreement).

Risk Management Process:

Risk Management Transactions shall not exceed a period of eighteen months (18) months from the then-current delivery month unless otherwise approved by Client.

Risk Management Transactions will be implemented in accordance with the Risk Management Plan agreed between Client and CES in writing pursuant to Section 4(c) of the Agreement.

Compensation for Additional Interest:

Client will pay Cargill for any additional interest costs associated with the implementation of the Risk Management Transactions.

Client will pay Cargill interest charges at the Interest Rate defined below on the sum of the Initial Margin Requirements and the Performance Exposure, after deduction of any cash collateral held by Cargill on behalf of Client.

The “Initial Margin Requirement” means, on the date of determination, the amount Client would have to deposit with Cargill before any hedging transactions took place, as a result of the margining requirements stated in Section 6(d) of the Master Agreement.

The Initial Margin Requirement will be equal to the total MMBtus of natural gas hedged by the Risk Management Transactions implemented multiplied by USD$ 10,000 per 10,000 MMBtu hedged. Cargill may adjust the Initial Margin Requirement as it deems necessary due to market volatility.

The “Performance Exposure” means, on the date of determination, the amount, if any, estimated by Cargill in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, that would be payable to Cargill if the Risk Management Transaction(s) were terminated as of such date and a payment was due to Cargill.

A-2

These charges would be in addition to any interest payable on collateral balances held in accordance with the terms and conditions of the margining requirements stated in Section 6(d) of the Master Agreement.

“Interest Rate” means a rate per annum equal to the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate for Dollar deposits as may from time to time be in effect per annum. This interest rate applied might be altered to reflect CES’ actual funding cost. Such interest shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and on the basis of a year of 360 days.

The calculation of additional interest charges will be performed daily. These interest charges will be invoiced monthly together with the invoice for Performance Fee as described above under “Payment Procedures”, which invoice shall be adjusted upwards to account for and settle such charges.

RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT

THE RISK OF LOSS IN TRADING COMMODITIES CAN BE SUBSTANTIAL. YOU SHOULD THEREFORE CAREFULLY CONSIDER WHETHER SUCH TRADING IS SUITABLE FOR YOU IN LIGHT OF YOUR FINANCIAL CONDITION. IN CONSIDERING WHETHER TO TRADE OR TO AUTHORIZE SOMEONE ELSE TO TRADE FOR YOU, YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING:

IF YOU PURCHASE A COMMODITY OPTION YOU MAY SUSTAIN A TOTAL LOSS OF THE PREMIUM AND OF ALL TRANSACTION COSTS.

IF YOU PURCHASE OR SELL A COMMODITY FUTURE OR SELL A COMMODITY OPTION YOU MAY SUSTAIN A TOTAL LOSS OF THE INITIAL MARGIN FUNDS AND ANY ADDITIONAL FUNDS THAT YOU DEPOSIT WITH YOUR BROKER TO ESTABLISH OR MAINTAIN YOUR POSITION. IF THE MARKET MOVES AGAINST YOUR POSITION, YOU MAY BE CALLED UPON BY YOUR BROKER TO DEPOSIT A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF ADDITIONAL MARGIN FUNDS, ON SHORT NOTICE, IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN YOUR POSITION. IF YOU DO NOT PROVIDE THE REQUESTED FUNDS WITHIN THE PRESCRIBED TIME, YOUR POSITION MAY BE LIQUIDATED AT A LOSS, AND YOU WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY RESULTING DEFICIT IN YOUR ACCOUNT.

UNDER CERTAIN MARKET CONDITIONS, YOU MAY FIND IT DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO LIQUIDATE A POSITION. THIS CAN OCCUR, FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN THE MARKET MAKES A “LIMIT MOVE.”

THE PLACEMENT OF CONTINGENT ORDERS BY YOU OR YOUR TRADING ADVISOR, SUCH AS A “STOP-LOSS” OR “STOP-LIMIT” ORDER, WILL NOT NECESSARILY LIMIT YOUR LOSSES TO THE INTENDED AMOUNTS, SINCE MARKET CONDITIONS MAY MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO EXECUTE SUCH ORDERS.

A “SPREAD” POSITION MAY NOT BE LESS RISKY THAN A SIMPLE “LONG” OR “SHORT” POSITION.

THE HIGH DEGREE OF LEVERAGE THAT IS OFTEN OBTAINABLE IN COMMODITY TRADING CAN WORK AGAINST YOU AS WELL AS FOR YOU. THE USE OF LEVERAGE CAN LEAD TO LARGE LOSSES AS WELL AS GAINS.

IN SOME CASES, MANAGED COMMODITY ACCOUNTS ARE SUBJECT TO SUBSTANTIAL CHARGES FOR MANAGEMENT AND ADVISORY FEES. IT MAY BE NECESSARY FOR THOSE ACCOUNTS THAT ARE SUBJECT TO THESE CHARGES TO MAKE SUBSTANTIAL TRADING PROFITS TO AVOID DEPLETION OR EXHAUSTION OF THEIR ASSETS. THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS, AT

C-1

EXHIBITS A AND B, A COMPLETE DESCRIPTION OF EACH FEE TO BE CHARGED TO YOUR ACCOUNT BY THE COMMODITY TRADING ADVISOR.

THIS BRIEF STATEMENT CANNOT DISCLOSE ALL THE RISKS AND OTHER SIGNIFICANT ASPECTS OF THE COMMODITY MARKETS. YOU SHOULD THEREFORE CAREFULLY STUDY THIS DISCLOSURE DOCUMENT AND COMMODITY TRADING BEFORE YOU TRADE.

THIS COMMODITY TRADING ADVISOR IS PROHIBITED BY LAW FROM ACCEPTING FUNDS IN THE TRADING ADVISOR’S NAME FROM A CLIENT FOR TRADING COMMODITY INTERESTS. YOU MUST PLACE ALL FUNDS FOR TRADING IN THIS TRADING PROGRAM DIRECTLY WITH A FUTURES COMMISSION MERCHANT.

ARBITRATION AGREEMENT

(“Client”), Cargill Commodity Services, Inc. d/b/a Cargill Energy Services (“CES”), and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (“▇▇▇▇▇▇▇”) hereby agree that any claim, dispute or controversy (“dispute”) between Client and CES or any of CES’ employees, principals, affiliates, or agents, or its or their respective successors or assigns (“affiliated persons”) arising directly or indirectly from or otherwise in connection with: the foregoing Gas Risk Management Advisory Agreement or any other document or agreement now or hereafter existing that relates to any of Client’s accounts managed by CES; or any transaction effected pursuant to such agreement or document shall, except as provided below, be resolved by binding arbitration before a forum chosen in accordance with the following procedure.

At such time as Client notifies CES or Cargill that Client intends to submit a dispute to arbitration, or at such time as CES or any of its affiliated persons notifies Client that CES or any of its affiliated persons intends to submit a dispute to arbitration, Client will have the opportunity to choose a forum from a list of two or more qualified forums provided by CES. A “qualified forum” is an organization whose procedures for conducting arbitrations comply with the requirements of Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) Rule 180.2.

As required by CFTC regulations, CES or any of CES’ affiliated persons who is a party to any dispute arbitrated pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement shall pay any additional fees which may be assessed by the arbitrators for a mixed arbitration panel, unless the arbitrators determine that Client has acted in bad faith in initiating or conducting the arbitration. A “mixed arbitration panel” is an arbitration panel composed of at least one or more persons, of which at least a majority are not members or associated with a member of a contract market or employee thereof, and which are not otherwise associated with a contract market.

Any award rendered in any arbitration conducted pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement shall be final and binding on and enforceable against Client and CES or any of CES’ affiliated persons in accordance with the substantive law of New York, and judgment may be entered on any such award by any court having jurisdiction thereof.

THREE FORUMS EXIST FOR THE RESOLUTION OF COMMODITY DISPUTES: CIVIL COURT LITIGATION, REPARATIONS AT THE CFTC, AND ARBITRATION CONDUCTED BY A SELF-REGULATORY OR OTHER PRIVATE ORGANIZATION.

THE CFTC RECOGNIZES THAT THE OPPORTUNITY TO SETTLE DISPUTES BY ARBITRATION MAY IN SOME CASES PROVIDE MANY BENEFITS TO CUSTOMERS, INCLUDING THE ABILITY TO OBTAIN AN EXPEDITIOUS AND FINAL RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES WITHOUT INCURRING SUBSTANTIAL COSTS. THE CFTC REQUIRES, HOWEVER, THAT EACH CUSTOMER INDIVIDUALLY EXAMINE THE RELATIVE MERITS OF ARBITRATION AND THAT YOUR CONSENT TO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT BE VOLUNTARY.

D-1

BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, YOU (1) MAY BE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO ▇▇▇ IN A COURT OF LAW; AND (2) ARE AGREEING TO BE BOUND BY ARBITRATION OF ANY CLAIMS OR COUNTERCLAIMS WHICH YOU OR CES OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATED PERSONS MAY SUBMIT TO ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. YOU ARE NOT, HOWEVER, WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO ELECT INSTEAD TO PETITION THE CFTC TO INSTITUTE REPARATIONS PROCEEDINGS UNDER SECTION 14 OF THE COMMODITY EXCHANGE ACT WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTE WHICH MAY BE ARBITRATED PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT A DISPUTE ARISES, YOU WILL BE NOTIFIED IF CES OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATED PERSONS INTEND TO SUBMIT THE DISPUTE TO ARBITRATION. IF YOU BELIEVE A VIOLATION OF THE COMMODITY EXCHANGE ACT IS INVOLVED AND IF YOU PREFER TO REQUEST A SECTION 14 “REPARATION” PROCEEDING BEFORE THE CFTC, YOU WILL HAVE 45 DAYS FROM THE DATE OF SUCH NOTICE IN WHICH TO MAKE THAT ELECTION.

YOU NEED NOT SIGN THIS AGREEMENT TO OPEN AN ACCOUNT WITH CES. SEE 17 CFR 180.1-180.5.
