                                THIRD AMMENDMENT
                                     to the
                                CREDIT AGREEMENT

     THIS THIRD AMENDMENT to the CREDIT AGREEMENT (the "Third Amendment") dated
July 29, 2003 (the "Agreement"), is made and entered into as of March 7, 2006,
by and between WESTERN PLAINS ENERGY, L.L.C., a Kansas limited liability company
("Borrower") and AGCOUNTRY FARM CREDIT SERVICES, FLCA ("Lender").

     WHEREAS, the parties entered into the First Amendment to the Agreement on
March 4, 2004 (the "First Amendment");

     WHEREAS, the parties entered into the Second Amendment to the Agreement on
November 15, 2004 (the "Second Amendment");

     WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.02(b) of the Agreement, Lender and Borrower
hereby agree to further amend the Agreement subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and conditions set forth
herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Borrower and Lender agree as
follows:

     1. Definitions. Except as otherwise provided herein, capitalized terms used
herein without definition shall have the meanings provided for in the Agreement.

     2. Suspension of Additional Payments. The requirement that Borrower make
additional payments pursuant to Section 2.10 of the Agreement is hereby
suspended until further notice by Lender.

     3. Restricted Payments. Section 7.05 of the Agreement is deleted in its
entirety and replaced with the following language:

          Section 7.05 Restricted Payments. Beginning March 31, 2006 and
     thereafter, other than dividends or distributions payable by Borrower
     solely in units of any class of its membership interests, Borrower will not
     declare or make, or agree to pay or make, directly or indirectly, any
     dividend or distribution on any class of its membership interests, or make
     any payment on account of, or set apart assets for a sinking or other
     analogous fund for, the purchase, redemption, retirement, defeasance or
     other acquisition of, any membership interest, or any options, warrants, or
     other rights to purchase any of the foregoing, whether now or hereafter
     outstanding, or any payment in respect of Indebtedness subordinated to the
     Obligations, except Borrower may, so long as no Default or Event of Default
     has occurred and is then continuing or would result from such payment,
     declare and pay distributions to its members in respect of the membership
     interest as follows:

               (a) Borrower may distribute an amount of up to 75% of Net Income;
          and

                                        2
<PAGE>

               (b) So long as Borrower achieves and maintains a Leverage Ratio
          that exceeds 0.60:1.00 and working capital that exceeds $5,000,000 (in
          each case as reported on audited fiscal year end financial
          statements), Borrower may distribute up to 100% of Net Income;
          provided, the limitations set forth in (a) above will be reinstated if
          Borrower's Leverage Ratio falls below 0.60:1.00 or working capital
          falls below $5,000,000 at any quarterly reporting period.

     Distributions for any prior fiscal year must be declared by Borrower's
     board of managers within 120 days of such fiscal year end or allowance
     hereunder to declare and pay the distribution for such fiscal year will be
     deemed waived by Borrower and disallowed. In addition, distributions for
     any current fiscal year may be declared and paid by Borrower's board of
     managers at any time during such fiscal year. Minutes of Borrower's board
     of managers' meeting, or a writing in lieu of meeting signed by all members
     of the board of managers, for which any distribution is declared must, at a
     minimum, state the fiscal year period for which any distribution will be
     made.

     Distributions in respect of Net Income for the prior year may not be paid
     until after confirmation of Net Income in Borrower's financial statements
     submitted pursuant to Section 5.01(a). Distributions in respect of Net
     Income for the current period may be paid in accordance with Borrower's
     internally prepared year-to-date financial statements reflecting its Net
     Income for the year; provided, Borrower must promptly provide for
     additional capital in the event the amount of distributions exceed the
     amount allowed based on Borrower's audited financial statements for such
     year. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may make
     payments on subordinate Indebtedness to the extent such payments are
     allowed under an intercreditor agreement between Lender and the other
     lender or creditor to which such payments are made.

     4. 2005 Dividend Approval/Waiver. Lender hereby grants Borrower's request
to pay a dividend to its members for income earned through December 31, 2005, in
the amount of $4,080,000. By approving this request, Lender waives Borrower's
compliance for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2005, of Section 7.05 of
the Agreement (as amended in this Third Amendment). This is a temporary,
one-time waiver of compliance with Section 7.05 of the Agreement based on
current circumstances as they now exist. Compliance with this section must be
adhered to in all future periods.

     5. Representations; Events of Default. In order to induce Lender to execute
this Third Amendment, the Borrower hereby:

          (a) makes and renews to Lender the representations and warranties set
     forth in Article IV of the Agreement; and

                                       3
<PAGE>

          (b) certifies to Lender that no Default or Event of Default has
     occurred under the Agreement.

     6. Expenses. The Borrower shall pay or reimburse Lender for attorneys' fees
and costs of Lender's legal counsel in connection with the preparation,
execution, delivery and consummation of this Third Amendment and in connection
with enforcement or protection of Lender's rights under the Agreement.

     7. General. On and after the effectiveness of this Third Amendment, each
reference in the Agreement to "this Agreement," "hereunder," "hereof" or words
of like import referring to the Agreement, and each reference in the loan
documents to the Agreement, shall mean the Agreement as amended by the First
Amendment, Second Amendment, and this Third Amendment. The Agreement shall
continue to be in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in
all respects.

     8. Counterpart Signatures. This Third Amendment may be executed by each
party in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and
all of which taken together shall constitute one binding document.
