Terms

NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed by and between the parties hereto, as follows:

I. MODIFICATIONS TO ANNEXATION AGREEMENT UPON ACQUISITION OF THE EXCHANGE PROPERTY BY IRE OR AN AFFILIATE OF IRE.

If IRE or an Affiliate of IRE acquires the Exchange Property, immediately upon acquiring the Exchange Property the following modifications to the Annexation Agreement shall be effective with respect to the Exchange Property without any further action by the City or any other party to the provisions:

1. References to DP Industrial and IRE. If IRE or an Affiliate of IRE acquires the Exchange Property, such entity shall promptly provide the City with notice of such acquisition.

The City agrees not to impose any fee, tax, assessment or charge of any kind or type as against IRE that is connected with, or in any way related to: (i) IRE’s right to connect to, (ii) IRE’s right to use, or (iii) IRE’s use of, the City Lead Track. The terms of this Article 12 are expressly made binding upon the successors, assigns and transferees of the City whether such successors receive their interest in the City Lead Track by sale, lease, operating agreement or other transfer of any right, title or interest in or to the City Lead Track. The City agrees to execute a recordable memorandum sufficient to give record notice of the agreements set forth in this Section.

(c). The City and IRE will, or have, entered into an Industrial Track Agreement, containing customary terms, provisions and conditions that are reasonably acceptable to IRE (“Rail Agreement”). Among other things, the Track Agreement will permit IRE, its successors and assigns, and their respective tenants and licensees, to send and receive

rail cars utilizing the City Lead Track. During the term of this Agreement, so long as Class 1 railroads continue to absorb the cost of switching fees, the City shall not charge IRE, its successors and assigns, or their respective tenants and licensees for such service.

(d) IRE has represented to the City that it expects to ship approximately thirteen (13) railroad cars per day over the City Lead Track upon completion of Phase I of the Ethanol Production Facility, and approximately twenty-five (25) cars per day upon completion of Phase II of the Ethanol Production Facility. The City has represented to IRE that the City receives income from the use of the City Lead Track at the current rate of $42 per car. Accordingly, the parties have projected the anticipated revenue to the City from IRE’s use of the City Lead Track to be $200,000.00 per year during Phase I of the Ethanol Production Facility, and an additional similar amount during Phase II of the Ethanol Production Facility. Until completion of Phase II of the Ethanol Production Facility, the income to the City resulting from use of the City Lead Track by the Ethanol Production Facility shall be retained by the City. After completion of Phase II of the Ethanol Production Facility, and until the City has recaptured all of its costs for the construction of Phase 2 of the City Lead Track (including without limitation all indebtedness and interest thereon) the income to the City resulting from use of the City Lead Track by the Ethanol Production Facility shall be allocated on a yearly basis as follows: (i) all income from the first 4589 rail cars used per year (i.e., 13 cars per day for 353 days) shall be deemed attributable to Phase I of the Ethanol Production Facility and shall be retained by the City (“Phase 1 Income”); (ii) all additional income from rail cars beyond Phase I Income at the rate of $42.00 per car, shall be deemed to be attributable to Phase II of the Ethanol Production Facility and shall be applied to City’s indebtedness for the construction of Phase 2 of the City Lead Track (“Phase 2 Income”). After City has recaptured all of its costs for the construction of Phase 2 of the City Lead Track (including without limitation all indebtedness and interest thereon) the income to the City resulting from use of the City Lead Track by the Ethanol Production Facility shall be retained by the City.

(e) In the event IRE decides to build Phase II of the Ethanol Production Facility the City agrees to take all actions that are reasonably necessary to design and construct Phase 2 of the City Lead Track, subject to events of Force Majeure, on or before the date (the “Construction Date”) that is twelve (12) months after the date IRE both: (i) gives the City written notice that it

will construct Phase II of the Ethanol Production Facility; and (ii) deposits with the City One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) (the “Engineering Deposit”). The City’s obligation to construct Phase 2 of the City Lead Track includes, but is not limited to, acquisition of any necessary real estate, the acquisition of all necessary governmental permits, the development of all necessary designs and plans for Phase 2 of the City Lead Track (including bridges) and the physical construction of Phase 2 of the City Lead Track, including any necessary bridges and switches (collectively the “Construction of Phase 2 of the City Lead Track”). In the event the City, through no fault of its own, is unable to obtain all governmental permits or is unable to make such connections to the Class 1 railroad mainlines as are necessary to construct Phase 2 of the City Lead Track by the Construction Date, the Construction Date shall be extended by the amount of time so required to obtain the necessary governmental permit or permits or the connections to the Class 1 railroad mainlines. Upon completion of plans and specifications for Phase 2 of the City Lead Track, the City shall deliver such plans and specifications to IRE, and IRE shall have the right to review and approve the same, with such review and approval not to be unreasonably delayed or withheld. Except as hereinafter expressly provided, the Construction of Phase 2 of the City Lead Track shall be at the City’s sole cost and expense (the “Phase 2 Costs”). On the first day of the first full calendar year following the date the City has completed the Construction of Phase 2 of the City Lead Track (the “First Year”), and on the same day of each succeeding calendar year, provided that, that year’s Phase 2 Income is less than Two Hundred Thousand ($200,000.00) Dollars, IRE agrees to pay to the City the difference between that year’s Phase 2 Income and Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) (the “Shortfall”) until the City has recaptured all Phase 2 Costs less the Engineering Deposit, meaning and intending to include any indebtedness, and the interest thereon, incurred by the City in the Construction of Phase 2 of the City Lead Track. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Annexation Agreement or this Rider, in the event Phase 2 Income exceeds Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) during the First Year, and/or any calendar year thereafter, (the “Excess Income”), the Excess Income shall accumulate and shall be credited against a future Shortfall, or Shortfalls, owed by IRE to the City, if any. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained

in the Annexation Agreement or this Rider, the City agrees to use and apply the Phase 2 Income, the Shortfall payments and the Excess Income, if any to the Phase 2 Costs until the Phase 2 Costs are completely paid. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Annexation Agreement or this Rider, the City agrees that the cost of any real estate that may be required for Phase 2 of the City Lead Track shall not be included in the Phase 2 Costs. In addition, in the event the City extends the City Lead Track, prior to IRE’s written notice and Engineering Deposit as set forth herein, for reasons other than Phase II of the Ethanol Production Facility, IRE shall not have any obligation to pay for all or any part of any such extension. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding sentence, or this Rider, the Phase 2 Costs shall not include, or be deemed to include, any costs or expenses that are not necessary and directly related to the construction of Phase 2 of the City Lead Track for the benefit of, and the construction of, Phase II of the Ethanol Production Facility. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Annexation Agreement or this Rider, the City will have no obligation to commence construction of Phase 2 of the City Lead Track until IRE has commenced actual construction of Phase II of the Ethanol Production Facility.

(f) Indemnities; Insurance. The City shall complete the performance of its obligations to extend the aforesaid City Rail Line under this Section in a manner that does not cause any mechanics liens to be imposed upon the Exchange Property. To the extent permitted by law and except to the extent attributable to the negligent acts or omissions of IRE, its directors, employees, agents, or contractors, the City shall indemnify and hold harmless the Exchange Property and IRE, its officers, directors, employees, agents and its and their successors and assigns, from all claims, suits, threats of suit, loss, cost (including attorney’s fees and costs of suit), injury, personal injury, damage or liens arising from the City’s performance of its obligations under this Section with said obligation to survive the expiration or termination of the Annexation Agreement. Prior to commencing any construction pursuant to this Section, the City will cause its general contractor or contractors to provide IRE with evidence that there is in place commercially reasonable insurance respecting the construction on such general liability policy or policies. Once extended by the City at the City’s cost as provided herein, the City’s shall not charge IRE for any of IRE’s use or uses, from time to time, of the City Rail Line.

13. Performance of Work. Section 12(b) of the Annexation Agreement shall not apply to the Exchange Property and IRE shall not be entitled to exercise the rights set forth in Section 12(b).

14. Infrastructure. Except as expressly set forth in this Rider or in the Annexation Agreement, IRE shall not be required to construct any on-site or off-site public infrastructure or perform any other construction, maintenance, repairs, replacements or alterations in connection with the development and use of the Exchange Property. The City represents and warrants that it has no knowledge of, or reason to know of, any on-site or off-site City infrastructure improvements or the need for repairs, replacements or alterations to any City infrastructure improvements which must or should be made in connection with the development and use of the Exchange Property as contemplated under this Rider, except as is expressly set forth in this Rider. If necessary in conjunction with the City’s performance of its obligations under this Rider, IRE agrees to expedite any necessary IRE reviews of proposed City construction activity on or about IRE’s Property and to waive any IRE-imposed review fees. In conjunction with the City’s performance of its obligations under this Rider, the City agrees to improve its infrastructure, from time to time, so that the City shall maintain an infrastructure with sufficient capacity to serve the needs of the Ethanol Production Facility from time to time, including, without limitation, all infrastructure reasonably necessary so that the City shall be able to provide sufficient water, sewer, electric and rail service to the Ethanol Production Facility. More specifically, the City agrees that it will maintain or improve its infrastructure, from time to time, such that the City will at all times, have the capability of supplying not less than one million two

hundred and fifty eight thousand eight hundred and fifty (1,258,850) gallons of water per day water, of the same quality that the City is currently capable of providing, to the Ethanol Production Facility. The City also agrees that it will maintain or improve its City Rail Line, from time to time, such that it will, at all reasonable times, have the capability of handling IRE’s contemplated future shipment of 25 railroad cars each day of every calendar year hereafter without undue delay or undue expense. The terms of the preceding sentence shall be deemed to include an agreement on the part of the City to provide a sufficient amount of rail siding and switching capability, from time to time, such that the City Rail Line can, at all times, be used by IRE for aforesaid quantity of shipments without undue delay by reason of the use of the City Rail Line by others whether such use by others now exists or arises in the future. In no event shall the City’s obligations hereunder require the City to maintain water capacity in excess of 1,258,850 gallons per day, or rail capacity in excess of thirteen (1) railroad cars per day for Phase I of the Ethanol Production facility and twenty-five (25) railroad cars per day for Phase II of the Ethanol Production facility.

15. Recapture. Section 17 of the Annexation Agreement shall not apply to the Exchange Property and IRE shall not be entitled to (i) any recapture fees or (ii) exercise any rights set forth in Section 17.

16. Fees. The City hereby represents to IRE, based upon the information and drawings provided by IRE to the City Building official, that Schedule 4, attached hereto and made a part hereof, consists of a reasonably accurate list of all the City’s taxes, charges and fees required to be paid by IRE to the City in connection with the Annexation Agreement, including this Rider, meaning and intending to include the construction of the Ethanol Production Facility

23 and the costs thereof. IRE acknowledges that there are, or may be, fees or other costs that are required to be paid by IRE to the City in connection with the construction of the Ethanol Prodcution Facility that are not included in Schedule 4 and the City represents that it has given IRE schedules of the major fees or costs. IRE acknowledges that there are, or may be fees for certain professionals, including engineering fees or other consultant fees (“Outside Professionals”), that may be engaged by the City for reviewing IRE’s plans (including the storm-water management plan) drawings and specifications that are not listed in Schedule 4 and that the City will seek reimbursement for the cost thereof from the IRE. Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary within this Rider, the City represents, warrants and agrees that the City has not, and shall not enter into any agreement with any third party, whereby the Exchange Property, or any part thereof (meaning and intending to include the Ethanol Production Facility) is made subject to the terms of any recapture agreement or other instrument designed to, or including any provisions providing for, the recapture of costs or expenses relating to any public improvement of any kind or type. The City further represents and warrants that the Exchange Property is not, and shall not, be made subject to any City ordinance, special assessment or other City rule that is designed to, or includes any provisions providing for, the recapture of costs or expenses relating to any public improvement of any kind or type.

17. Property Tax Abatement. Section 19 of the Annexation Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replace with the following:

“The City agrees to cause the Exchange Property to enjoy the standard tax abatement plan provided by the City to other industries which plan is described on Schedule 5, attached hereto and made a part hereof. The City further agrees to work with IRE and utilize its

best efforts to obtain approval of the abatements described on Schedule 5 from other taxing districts not already a part of the plan, if any. The tax abatement plan shall commence upon the first day of the first full calendar year following completion of the Ethanol Production Facility and the commencement of Ethanol Production. The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended to permit IRE to receive the full benefit of the abatement by deferring any abatement until the first day of the first calendar year following completion of the Ethanol Production Facility.”

18. Concurrent Annexation. The City represents and warrants that the City is the sole owner of the real estate described on Schedule 6 attached hereto (the “City Property”). Concurrently with the annexation of the IRE Land (as defined in the Annexation Agreement) the City agrees to annex the City Property.

19. Conflicts. In the event of a conflict between the Annexation Agreement and this Rider, the terms and provisions of this Rider shall prevail.

20. Full Force and Effect. Except as modified by this Rider, the Annexation Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

21. Affiliate of IRE. As used in this Rider, an “Affiliate of IRE” shall mean (1) any entity resulting from a merger or consolidation with IRE or any organization purchasing substantially all of IRE’s assets, (2) any subsidiary, affiliate or parent of IRE, (3) any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with IRE, (4) any entity related to IRE, and (5) any joint venture partner of IRE.

22. Recapture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained within: (i) the IRE Annexation Agreement, including any Rider thereto; (ii) the Annexation Agreement, including this Rider; (iii) any recapture agreement; (iv) or any statute, ordinance, regulation or other rule of law, neither the City nor DP Industrial, including, without limitation, their successors, affiliates or assigns, shall have the right to recapture any costs for any of the real estate, easements or infrastructure improvements contemplated to be acquired and/or made under the above mentioned annexation agreements, including, without limitation, the construction, improvement or extension of water facilities, sewer facilities, electric, fiber optics, roads or railroad lines from any current or future owner or lessee of all or any part of the Yesac Property or the Exchange Property, or the Yesac Property or the Exchange Property themselves. The City expressly waives the provisions of any ordinance or agreement, whether now or hereafter existing, which gives, or purports to give, the City any right to recapture any one or more of the costs mentioned in the preceding sentence.

23. Dedication and Easements. Simultaneous with IRE’s acquisition of the Exchange Property, IRE shall dedicate and convey to ▇▇▇▇ County the 40-foot right-of-way described in Section 8(c) of the Annexation Agreement. In addition, simultaneous with IRE’s acquisition of the Subject Property, IRE shall grant the easements for the Utility Easement Area and the Construction Easement Area on the Exchange Property, as described in Section 14(b) of the Annexation Agreement.

24. Contingencies. Subject to IRE’s successful completion of its public offering for the sale of stock, IRE agrees to begin construction of the Ethanol Production Facility on or before February 1, 2004. Subject to the provisions of Article XXIII of the IRE Annexation

26 Agreement, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, City’s obligations set forth in this Rider shall be contingent upon Owner building an Ethanol Facility on the Exchange Property, with construction of the same commencing on or before February 1, 2004, failing which IRE or the City may declare this Rider terminated upon written notice to the other party. Upon termination as set forth in the preceding sentence, neither party shall have any further obligations to the other party under this Agreement, except that the following obligations shall survive such termination: (i) IRE’s obligation to convey and/or dedicate the 40’ right-of-way on ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Road and (ii) IRE’s obligation to grant the easements for the Utility Easement Area and the Construction Easement Area on the Exchange Property as described in Section 23 of this Rider. Nothing contained in this Section shall affect the City’s obligations to DP Industrial under the Annexation Agreement.

25. Third Party Beneficiary. IRE shall be deemed to be a third party beneficiary to the Annexation Agreement and this Rider.

26. Amendment. The Annexation Agreement, this Rider and all exhibits and schedules attached to the Annexation Agreement and the Rider set forth all the promises, inducements, agreements, conditions and understandings between the parties relative to the subject matter thereof, and there are no promises, inducements, agreements, conditions or understandings, either oral or written, express or implied, between them other than are herein set forth. Except as otherwise provided herein, no subsequent alteration, amendment, change or

addition to the Annexation Agreement or this Rider shall be binding upon the parties hereto unless authorized in accordance with law and reduced in writing as signed by them. Any amendment to the Annexation Agreement or this Rider shall be subject to IRE’s review and approval (until the Exchange Agreement terminates, at which time neither IRE’s review nor approval shall be required).

27. Assignability. Prior to the annexation of the Exchange Property to the City, DP Industrial shall have the right, without the City’s or the Consenting Parties’ approval, to assign all of its obligations, rights and responsibilities under the Annexation Agreement and this Rider to IRE or an Affiliate of IRE in connection with an assignment of the purchase option agreements described in the recitals of the Annexation Agreement.

28. Waiver. No waiver of any condition or provision of the Annexation Agreement or this Rider by any party shall be valid unless in writing signed by such party. No such waiver shall be deemed or construed as a waiver of any other or similar provision or of any future event, act, or default.

29. Computation of Time. In the computation of any period of time provided for in the Annexation Agreement or this Rider or by law, the day of the act or event from which such period of time runs shall be excluded, and the last day of such period shall be included, unless it is a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, in which case the period shall be deemed to run until the end of the next business day.

34. Severability. If any provision of the Annexation Agreement or this Rider is held invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, or in the event such court shall determine that the City does not have the power to perform any such provision, such provision shall be deemed to be excised here from and the invalidity thereof shall not affect any of the other provisions contained herein, and such judgment or decree shall relieve the respective party from performance under such invalid provision of the Annexation Agreement or this Rider.

35. Counterparts. The Annexation Agreement and this Rider may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

29 36. Definitions. All terms not defined in this Rider shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Annexation Agreement.

Industrial projects in the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ area that create jobs qualify for real estate tax abatement in the amount of 90% year 1 and 75% year 2. The abatement process must adhere to state law and the pre-approval ordinances of the various taxing bodies.

1. To qualify a business must be newly created, an expansion of an existing industry, or moving to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ from another State or Foreign Country. A business moving from another location within Illinois does not qualify.

2. The project must be located in an industrial zoned location and must create at least 10 jobs.

3. The business must be in operation the year previous to qualifying for the abatement so the abatement will be applied to a full assessment.

4. The abatement may be applied to later expansions and it only applies to any increased assessed valuation resulting from the expansion.

5. The abatement applies to business that creates the jobs. An industry that locates in a leased facility must receive the abatement benefits through the lease since the abatement is applied to the real estate taxes.

6. All taxing bodies in the area have pre-approved the abatement, assuming all of the above requirements are met, except ▇▇▇▇ County and Kishwaukee Community College. GREDCO must make a formal request to ▇▇▇▇ County and Kishwaukee Community College for their final approval.

7. The Greater ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Economic Development Corp. (GREDCO) board must approve all projects for abatement but have the authority to authorize the County Clerk to ▇▇▇▇▇ the taxes if the above guidelines are met.
