FIRST AMENDMENT TO CONSTRUCTION LOAN AGREEMENT

This First Amendment to Construction Loan Agreement is dated as of the 16th day of August, 2006, and is by and between RED TRAIL ENERGY, LLC, a North Dakota limited liability company ("BORROWER"), and FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF OMAHA ("BANK"), a national banking association established at Omaha, Nebraska.

WHEREAS, the BANK and BORROWER executed a written Construction Loan Agreement dated as of December 16,2005 ("AGREEMENT").

Now, Therefore, in consideration of the AGREEMENT, and their mutual promises made herein, BANK and BORROWER agree as follows:

     1. Terms which are typed herein as all capitalized words and are not defined herein shall have same meanings as when described in the AGREEMENT.

     2. The parties desire that the INTEREST PERIOD for the REVOLVING NOTE, FIXED RATE NOTE, VARIABLE RATE NOTE, and LONG TERM REVOLVING NOTE described in paragraph 3, below, commence on the same date as the CONSTRUCTION NOTE, which is the 16th day of the calendar month. Therefore, effective immediately, a new subparagraph 1.18.4 shall be added to Section 1.18 of the AGREEMENT, so that such Section 1.18 shall read:

1.18 "INTEREST PERIOD" means initially, the period commencing on the date of any loan made pursuant to this AGREEMENT and, for FIXED RATE NOTE and VARIABLE RATE NOTE ending three months later, and for the CONSTRUCTION NOTE, LONG TERM REVOLVING NOTE and REVOLVING NOTE ending one month later; and thereafter, each period commencing on the first day immediately following the last day of the immediately preceding INTEREST PERIOD and, for FIXED RATE NOTE and VARIABLE RATE NOTE ending three months thereafter, and for the CONSTRUCTION NOTE, LONG TERM REVOLVING NOTE and REVOLVING NOTE ending one month thereafter; provided that:

     1.18.1 subject to clauses 1.18.2 and 1.18.3 below, any INTEREST PERIOD which would otherwise end on a day which is not a EURODOLLAR BUSINESS DAY shall be extended to the next succeeding EURODOLLAR BUSINESS DAY unless such EURODOLLAR BUSINESS DAY falls in another calendar month, in which case such INTEREST PERIOD shall end on the immediately preceding EURODOLLAR BUSINESS DAY;

     1.18.2 subject to clause 1.18.3 below, any INTEREST PERIOD which begins on the last EURODOLLAR BUSINESS DAY of a calendar month (or a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such INTEREST PERIOD) shall end on the last EURODOLLAR BUSINESS DAY of a calendar month;

 

 

 

     1.18.3 no INTEREST PERIOD shall extend beyond the LOAN TERMINATION DATE; and

     1.18.4 Notwithstanding anything hereinabove to the contrary, the INTEREST PERIOD for the REVOLVING NOTE, FIXED RATE NOTE, VARIABLE RATE NOTE, LONG TERM REVOLVING NOTE and the CONSTRUCTION NOTE shall commence on the 16th day of the calendar month.

     3. On execution hereof, BORROWER will execute and deliver to BANK a replacement note evidencing the REVOLVING NOTE, in order to change the maturity of such note. As the result, Section 1.24 of the AGREEMENT is hereby amended, effective immediately, to read:

1.24 "LOAN TERMINATION DATE" means the earliest to occur of the following: (i) as to the CONSTRUCTION NOTE, April 16, 2007, as to the REVOLVING NOTE, July 5, 2007, as to FIXED RATE NOTE, VARIABLE RATE NOTE and as to LONG TERM REVOLVING NOTE, a date which is five years subsequent to the COMPLETION DATE, (ii) the date the OBLIGATIONS are accelerated pursuant to this AGREEMENT, and (iii) the date BANK has received (a) notice in writing from BORROWER of BORROWER’S election to terminate this AGREEMENT and (b) indefeasible payment in full of the OBLIGATIONS.

     4. Effective immediately, Section 1.26 of the AGREEMENT is amended to read:
