Whereas, the Employer and Executive entered into that certain

Employment Agreement, Executive shall serve as Vice President of Mergers and
Acquisitions of Alon USA Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation, the indirect
parent of the Company.

2.   Notwithstanding Section 1(c) of the Employment Agreement, the initial term
of employment shall end on April 30, 2010; thereafter, the term shall renew
automatically as provided in Section 1(c) of the Agreement.

3.   Except as set forth in this Amendment, nothing contained herein is intended
to modify or otherwise affect the terms and conditions of the Employment
Agreement which shall remain in full force and effect.

In witness whereof, the parties have caused this Amendment to be executed and
delivered as of the date first written above.
