2000 STOCK OPTION PLAN

of

CASEY'S GENERAL STORES, INC.

ARTICLE I

PURPOSES

The purpose of this 2000 Stock Option Plan, which shall be known as the "2000 Stock Option Plan of Casey's General Stores, Inc." (the "Plan"), is to promote the interests of Casey's General Stores, Inc., an Iowa corporation (the "Company"), and its shareholders by strengthening its ability to retain officers and key employees in the employ of the Company, or of any subsidiary of the Company, by furnishing additional incentives whereby such present and future officers and key employees may be encouraged to acquire, or to increase their acquisition of, the Company's common stock, thus maintaining their personal interest in the Company's continued success and progress.  The Plan provides for the grant of options to purchase shares of Common Stock ("Option" or "Options") in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below.

Any Option granted under this Plan may be either an incentive stock option (an "ISO") or a non-qualified option (a "NQO"), as determined in the discretion of the Committee.  An "ISO" is an Option that is intended to be an "incentive stock option" described in Section 422(b) of the Code and does in fact satisfy the requirements of that section.  An "NQO" is an Option that is not intended to be an "incentive stock option" as that term in described in Section 422(b) of the Code, or that fails to satisfy the requirements of that section.  

ARTICLE II

In addition to the definitions set forth in Article I hereof, for purposes of this Plan the following terms shall have the following meanings:

"Committee" means the Compensation Committee of the Board.
"Common Stock" means unauthorized and unissued shares of the Common Stock, no par value, of the Company.

"Employee" means any key employee of the Company or any subsidiary thereof.  Members of the Board who are not full-time salaried officers or employees are not Employees for purposes of this Plan.

"Fair Market Value" means the last reported sales or closing price of the Common Stock, on the date on which it is to be valued hereunder, as reported on the NASDAQ National Market System or other securities exchange.

"Non-Employee Director" shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 16b-3 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or any successor definition adopted by the Commission.

"Optionee" means an Employee to whom an Option is granted pursuant to the Plan.

ARTICLE III

ADMINISTRATION

The Plan shall be administered by the Committee, which shall at all times consist of not less than two (2) persons, each of whom shall be a Non-Employee Director.  The Committee shall have complete authority to construe and interpret the Plan, to establish, amend and rescind appropriate rules and regulations relating to the Plan, to select persons eligible to participate in the Plan, to grant Options thereunder, to administer the Plan, to make recommendations to the Board and to take all such steps and make all such determinations in connection with the Plan and the Options granted thereunder as it may deem necessary or advisable.  All determinations of the Committee shall be by a majority of its members, and its determinations shall be final.

ELIGIBILITY

4.1.  All Employees who have demonstrated significant management potential or who have contributed, or are deemed likely to contribute, in a substantial measure to the successful performance of the Company, as determined by the Committee, are eligible to

be Optionees under the Plan; provided that such individuals have been Employees at all times during a period beginning on the date on which the Committee grants to such individual an Option and ending on the day three (3) months before the date of exercise of the Option. 

4.2.  No Employee shall be granted an Option intended to be an ISO if, immediately before the Option is to be granted, the Employee owns, directly or indirectly, more than ten percent (10%) of the Common Stock and other stock of the Company possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company, or of any subsidiary of the Company; provided, however, that the limitation stated in this Section 4.2 shall not apply if at the time such Option is granted the Option Price is not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value (at the time the Option is granted) of the Common Stock subject to the Option, and such Option by its terms is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date such Option is granted.

ARTICLE V

SHARES RESERVED

5.1.  There shall be reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan a total of Five Hundred Thousand (500,000) shares of Common Stock, together with any shares that were available for grant under the Company's 1991 Incentive Stock Option Plan as of June 6, 2000 (estimated to be 752,164 shares) and any shares that, after such date, would have, but for Article XI below, otherwise become available for grant under the terms of such Plan by reason of forfeitures or otherwise.  In the event that (i) an Option expires or is terminated unexercised as to any shares covered thereby, or (ii) shares are forfeited for any reason under the Plan, such shares shall thereafter be again available for issuance pursuant to the Plan.

ARTICLE VI

GRANT OF OPTIONS

Options may be granted to Employees in such number and at such times during the term of this Plan (as defined in Article XII hereof) as the Committee shall determine, the Committee taking into account the duties of the respective Employees, their present and potential contributions to the success of the Company, and such other factors as the Committee shall deem relevant in connection with accomplishing the purpose of the Plan.  The granting of an Option pursuant to the Plan shall take place when the Committee by resolution, written consent or other appropriate action determines to grant such an Option to a particular Optionee at a particular price.  Each Option shall be evidenced by a written agreement to be duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Company and the Optionee and containing provisions not inconsistent with the Plan.  An Option granted under the Plan may be either an ISO or a NQO.

ARTICLE VII

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS

Options granted under this Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

7.1.  Option Price.  The Option Price per share with respect to each Option shall be determined by the Committee but shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date the Option is granted (the "Option Price").

7.2.  Duration of Options.  Options shall be exercisable at such time and under such conditions as set forth in the written agreement evidencing such Option, but in no event shall any Option be exercisable on or after the tenth anniversary of the date on which the Option is granted.

7.3.  Exercise of Option.  The shares of Common Stock covered by an Option may not be purchased by an Optionee prior to the first anniversary of the date on which the Option is granted, or such longer period as the Committee may determine in a particular case, but thereafter may be purchased at one time or in such installments over the balance of the Option period as may be provided in the Option; any shares not purchased on the applicable installment date may be purchased thereafter at any time prior to the final expiration of the Option.  To the extent that the right to purchase shares has accrued thereunder, Options may be 

4

exercised from time to time by written notice of the Company stating the number of shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised.

7.4.  Payment.  Shares of Common Stock purchased under any Option shall, at the time of purchase, be paid for in full.  Such payment shall be made in cash, by tender of shares of Common Stock owned by the Optionee valued at Fair Market Value as of the day of exercise, subject to such limitations on the tender of Common Stock as the Committee may impose, or by a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock.  No shares shall be issued or delivered until full payment therefor has been made.  A holder of an Option shall have none of the rights of a shareholder until the shares of Common Stock are issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option.  The Committee may provide an Optionee with assistance in financing the Option Price and applicable withholding taxes, on such terms and conditions as it determines appropriate in its sole discretion.  The Committee also may permit an Optionee to elect to pay the Option Price by irrevocably authorizing a third party to sell shares of Common Stock (or a sufficient portion thereof) acquired upon exercise of the Option and remit to the Company a sufficient portion of the sale proceeds to pay the entire Option Price and any tax withholding resulting from such exercise.

7.5.  Withholding.  In the Committee's discretion, the Optionee may be required to pay to the Company the amount of any taxes required to be withheld with respect to shares of Common Stock purchased under any Option or, in lieu thereof, the Company shall have the right to retain (or the Optionee may be offered the opportunity to elect a tender) the number of shares of Common Stock whose Fair Market Value on the date such taxes are required to be withheld equals the amount required to be so withheld.

7.6.  Limitation on ISOs.  Except as may otherwise be permitted by the Code, the aggregate fair market value (determined as of the time an Option is granted) of the Common Stock for which an Option intended to be an ISO is exercisable for the first time by any Optionee during the calendar year (under all such plans of the Company and any affiliated corporation) shall not exceed the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000).

7.7.  Restrictions on Transfer of Common Stock.  The Committee shall determine, with respect to each Option, the nature and extent of the restrictions, if any, to be imposed on the shares of Common Stock which may be purchased thereunder including restrictions on the transferability of such shares acquired through the exercise of such Option.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee may impose conditions restricting absolutely the 

5

transferability of shares acquired through the exercise of Options for such periods as the Committee may determine and, further, that in the event the Optionee's employment by the Company terminates during the period in which such shares are nontransferable, the Optionee shall be required to sell such shares back to the Company at such price as the Committee may specify in the Option.

7.8.  Purchase for Investment.  The Committee shall have the right to require that each Optionee or other person who shall exercise an Option under the Plan, and each person into whose name shares of Common Stock shall be issued, pursuant to the exercise of an Option, jointly with that of any Optionee, represent and agree that any and all shares of Common Stock of the Company pursuant to such Option will be purchased for investment thereof or that such shares will not be sold except in accordance with such restrictions or limitations as may be set forth in the written agreement granting such Option; provided, however, that the foregoing provisions of this subparagraph 7.8 shall be inoperative during any period of time when the Company has obtained all necessary or advisable approvals from any governmental agency and has completed all necessary or advisable registrations or other qualification of shares of Common Stock as to which Options may from time to time be granted, as contemplated by Article VIII hereof.

7.9.  Non-Transferability of Options.  During an Optionee's lifetime, the Option may be exercised only by the Optionee, and Options shall not be transferable, except for exercise by the Optionee's legal representatives or beneficiaries as provided in Section 7.11 hereof.

7.10.  Termination of Employment.  Upon the termination, including retirement, of an Optionee's employment, for any reason, other than death or termination for deliberate, willful or gross misconduct, the Option shall be exercisable by the Optionee only as to those shares of Common Stock which were then subject to the exercise of such Option (unless the Committee shall determine in a specific case that particular limitations under the Plan shall not apply), and such Option shall expire unless exercised within three (3) months after the date of such termination.  If an Optionee's employment is terminated for deliberate, willful or gross misconduct, as determined by the Company, all rights under the Option shall expire upon receipt by the Optionee of the notice of such termination.

7.11.  Death of Optionee.  Upon the death of an Optionee, whether during the period of employment or during the three (3) month period referred to in the first sentence of Section 7.10, hereof, the Option held by the Optionee shall be exercisable only as to those shares of Common Stock which were subject to the 

6

exercise of such option at the time of the Optionee's death (unless the Committee shall determine in a specific case that particular limitations under the Plan shall not apply), and such Option shall expire unless exercised by the legal representatives or beneficiaries of the Optionee within twelve (12) months after the date of the Optionee's death.

ARTICLE VIII

REGULATORY APPROVALS AND LISTING

The Company shall not be required to issue any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of an Option granted under the Plan prior to (i) the obtaining of any approval from any governmental agency which the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable, (ii) the admission of such shares to listing on any stock exchange on which the Common Stock may then be listed, and (iii) the completion of any registration or other qualification of such shares under any state or Federal law or rulings or regulations of any governmental body which the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable.

ARTICLE IX

NO RIGHT TO EMPLOYMENT

No person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Option, and the grant of an Option shall not be construed as giving an Optionee the right to be retained in the employ of the Company.  Further, the Company expressly reserves the right at any time to dismiss an Optionee free from any liability, or from any claim under the Plan, except as provided herein or in any agreement entered into with respect to an Option.

7

Upon the effectiveness of the Plan, no further grants shall be made under the 1991 Incentive Stock Option Plan of the Company.

GRANT OF INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION

THIS GRANT OF INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION, effective as of the 23rd day of June, 2009 (the "Date of Grant"), is delivered by Casey's General Stores, Inc., an Iowa corporation, on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries (together, the "Company") to __________________________________ (the "Employee"), who is an employee of the Company.

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company on July 26, 2000, adopted, with subsequent approval by the shareholders on September 15, 2000, the 2000 Stock Option Plan of Casey's General Stores, Inc. (the "Plan"); and

WHEREAS, the Plan provides for the granting of incentive stock options by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee") to directors, officers and key employees of the Company (excluding members of the Board who are not full-time salaried officers or employees) to purchase, or to exercise certain rights with respect to, shares of Common Stock of the Company (the "Common Stock"), in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof; and

WHEREAS, the Committee considers the Employee to be a person who is eligible for a grant of incentive stock options under the Plan, and has determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company to grant the incentive stock options documented herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, it is agreed by and between the parties as follows:

1.    Grant of Option.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Company, with the approval and at the direction of the Committee, hereby grants to the Employee, as of the Date of Grant, an option to purchase up to _______________________________________ (___________) shares of Common Stock at a price of $25.26 per share (the "Option"), which the parties agree was the fair market value thereof on the Date of Grant.  The Option is intended by the parties hereto to be, and shall be treated as, an incentive stock option as such term is defined under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  

2.    Exercise of Option.  Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Option may be exercised by Employee at any time, and from time to time, on and after June 23, 2012, in whole or in part, until the termination thereof as provided in paragraph 4 hereof; provided, however, that the aggregate fair market value (determined as of the Date of Grant) of the Common Stock for which the Option is exercisable for the first time by Employee during any calendar year shall not exceed the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000).

3.    Change of Control.  In the event of a change in control of the Company prior to the exercise of Options granted hereunder, but after the Employee has completed one year of 

1

continuous employment subsequent to the Date of Grant Option, all outstanding Options granted hereunder shall immediately become fully vested and exercisable notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan or anything in paragraph 2 above to the contrary.

For purposes of this paragraph 3, a change in control shall be deemed to have occurred on the earlier of the following dates:

		
	(a)
	The date any entity or person (including a "group" as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) shall have become the beneficial owner of, or shall have obtained voting control over, twenty percent (20%) or more of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company;

		
	(b)
	The date the shareholders of the Company approve a definitive agreement (i) to merge or consolidate the Company with or into another corporation, in which the Company is not the continuing or surviving corporation or pursuant to which any Common Stock of the Company would be converted into cash, securities or other property of another corporation, other than a merger of the Company in which holders of common shares immediately prior to the merger have the same proportionate ownership of Common Stock of the surviving corporation immediately after the merger as immediately before, or (ii) to sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all the assets of the Company; or

		
	(c)
	The date there shall have been a change in a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company within a twelve (12) month period beginning after the Date of Grant, unless the nomination for election by the Company<s shareholders of each new director was approved by the vote of three-fourths of the directors then still in office who were in office at the beginning of the twelve (12) month period.

4.    Method of Exercise.  The Option shall be exercised by written notice directed to the Secretary of the Company, acting on behalf of the Committee, stating the number of shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised and the expected date of purchase, which date shall be at least five days after the giving of such notice unless an earlier time shall have been mutually agreed upon.  Shares of Common Stock purchased under the Option shall be paid for in full at the time of purchase.  Such payment shall be made in cash, and no shares shall be issued or delivered until full payment therefor has been made.  Upon receipt of such payment, the Company shall make immediate delivery of such shares; provided that if any law or regulation requires the Company to take any action with respect to the shares specified in such notice before the issuance thereof, then the date of delivery of such shares shall be extended for the period necessary to take such action.

5.    Termination of Option.  Except as herein otherwise stated, the Option to the extent not heretofore exercised shall terminate upon the first to occur of the following dates:

2

(a)    The expiration of three (3) months after the date on which Employee's employment by the Company is terminated (except if such termination be by reason of death or for deliberate, willful or gross misconduct);

(b)    In the event of Employee's death while in the employ of the Company, the legal representatives or beneficiaries of Employee may exercise, within twelve (12) months following the date of Employee's death, the Option as to those shares of Common Stock subject to the Option at the time of Employee's death, unless the Committee shall determine in a specific case that particular limitations under the Plan shall not apply;

(c)    If Employee's employment is terminated for deliberate, willful or gross misconduct, as determined by the Committee, all rights under this Option shall expire upon receipt by Employee of the notice of such termination; or

(d)    June 23, 2019 (being the expiration of ten (10) years from the Date of Grant).

6.    Adjustment of Option.  In the event of any change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend or split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination or exchange of shares or other corporate change, or any distributions to common shareholders other than cash dividends, the Committee shall make such adjustment as it deems to be equitable in the number and kind of shares of Common Stock subject to the Option or in the Option price; provided, however, that no such adjustment shall give the Employee any additional benefits under the Option.  

7.    No Rights of Shareholders.  Neither the Employee nor any personal representative shall be, or shall have any of the rights or privileges of, a shareholder of the Company with respect to any shares of Common Stock purchasable or issuable upon the exercise of the Option, in whole or in part, until the shares of Common Stock are issued by the Company. 

8.    Non-Transferability of Option.  During the Employee's lifetime, the Option may be exercised only by the Employee or any guardian or legal representative of the Employee, and the Option shall not be transferable, except for exercise by the Employee's legal representatives or beneficiaries as provided in the Plan, nor shall the Option be subject to attachment, execution or other similar process.  In the event of (i) any attempt by the Employee to alienate, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Option, except as provided for herein, or (ii) the levy of any attachment, execution or similar process upon the rights or interests hereby conferred, the Company may terminate the Option by notice to the Employee and it shall thereupon become null and void.  

9.    Employment Not Affected.  The granting of the Option or its exercise shall not be construed as granting to the Employee any right with respect to continuation of employment by the Company.  Except as may otherwise be limited by a written agreement between the Company and the Employee, the right of the Company to terminate at will the Employee's employment with it at any time (whether by dismissal, discharge, retirement or otherwise) is specifically 

3

reserved by the Company, as the employer of the Employee, and acknowledged by the Employee. 

10.    Notice.  Any notice to the Company provided for in this instrument shall be addressed to it in care of its Secretary at its executive offices at One Convenience Boulevard, Ankeny, Iowa  50021, and any notice to the Employee shall be addressed to the Employee at the current address shown on the payroll records of the Company.  Any notice shall be deemed to be duly given if and when properly addressed and posted by registered or certified mail, postage pre-paid, or delivered in person.

11.    Incorporation of Plan by Reference.  The Option is granted pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, and the Option shall in all respects be interpreted in accordance with the Plan.  In the event there is any conflict between the Plan and this instrument, the terms of this instrument shall control.  The Committee shall interpret and construe the Plan and this instrument, and its interpretation and determinations shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto and any other person claiming an interest hereunder with respect to any issue arising hereunder or thereunder.  

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused its duly authorized officers to execute and attest this Grant of Incentive Stock Option, and the Employee has placed his or her signature hereon, effective as of the Date of Grant.

For each day that Myers is employed by the Company as President and Chief Executive Officer after June 21, 2010, the per year retirement benefit described in the previous sentence shall be increased by a pro rata portion of the remaining one-fifth (1/5) of the per year retirement benefit calculated under the formula set forth in section 5.1. 

5.4    The period for payment of the retirement benefit set forth in Section 5.1(a) shall be extended beyond December 31, 2021, by one additional year if Myers serves as President and Chief Executive Officer until April 30, 2012, and by a second additional year if Myers serves in that capacity until April 30, 2013.  

3

5.5    If payment to Myers in accordance with Section 5.1 of this Agreement of any amount that is "deferred compensation" subject to section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), at the time otherwise payable under this Agreement would subject such payment to additional tax under Code section 409A(a)(1)(B), and if the payment of such amount at a later date would avoid any such additional tax, then the payment of such amount shall be deferred until the later of (a) the date of payment specified in this Agreement, or (b) the earliest date on which such payment can be paid without incurring any such additional tax.  If this provision requires a deferral of any payment beyond the date specified in the foregoing provisions of this Agreement, such payment shall be accumulated and paid in a single lump sum on the subsequent date on which such payment can be paid without incurring such additional tax.

5.6    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no amendment or modification of this Agreement may alter, delay or accelerate the time or change the form of payments in accordance with this Section 5 in violation of Code § 409A, including, without limitation, any amendment that would violate the current provisions of Code § 409A requiring that any amendment to extend the employment of Myers and the payment to him of all or any portion of the benefits under this Section 5 may not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the new election is made, and, if the new election relates to a payment for a reason other than the death or disability of Myers, the new election must provide for the deferral of the first payment for a period of at least five (5) years from the date such payment would otherwise have been made.

6.    Expense Reimbursements.

During Myers' employment with the Company under this Agreement, Myers will be entitled to receive reimbursement from the Company for all reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by him (in accordance with policies and procedures established by the Company), in connection with his performing services hereunder, provided Myers properly accounts therefor. 

7.    Termination of Employment.

7.1    Death.  In the event of the death of Myers during the Term of this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate and all obligations to Myers, other than any arising under Section 5, shall cease as of the date of death, except that all rights and benefits of Myers under the benefit plans and programs of the Company in which Myers is a participant will be provided as determined in accordance with the terms and provisions of such plans and programs. 

7.2    Disability.  In the event Myers shall become permanently incapacitated by reasons of sickness, accident or other physical or mental disability, as such incapacitation is defined by the Company's Long-Term Disability carrier for a period exceeding 26 weeks during any twelve (12) month period, this Agreement shall terminate and all obligations to Myers, other than any arising under Section 5, shall cease except that all 

4

rights and benefits of Myers under the benefit plans and programs of the Company in which Myers is a participant, will be provided as determined in accordance with the terms and provisions of such plans and programs. 

7.3    Cause.  The Company may terminate Myers' employment, remove him as an officer of the Company and terminate this Agreement at any time for Cause.  In the event of such termination for Cause, Myers shall receive, in addition to any payments under Section 5, Base Salary payments provided for in this Agreement only through the date of such termination for Cause.  Any rights and benefits Myers may have under the employee benefit plans and programs of the Company, in which Myers is a participant, shall be determined in accordance with the terms and provisions of such plans and programs.  Myers understands and agrees that in the event of the termination of employment, removal as an officer and director and termination of this Agreement for Cause, the obligations of Myers set forth under Section 8 herein shall remain in full force and effect.  The term  "Cause" shall mean unsatisfactory performance, inattention to duty, excessive absenteeism, incompetence, misconduct in the performance of duties, embezzlement, fraud, commission of a criminal act, insubordination, personal or professional conduct which may bring public embarrassment or disgrace to the Company, a violation of the Company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics or the Code of Ethics for the CEO and Senior Financial Officers (each as may be amended from time to time), or failure to cooperate with an investigation conducted by the Company or by local, state or federal law enforcement authorities.

7.4    Without Cause.  The other provisions of this Agreement notwithstanding, the Company may terminate Myers' employment, remove him as an officer and terminate this Agreement at any time for whatever reason it deems appropriate, without Cause and with or without prior notice.  In the event of such a termination any rights and benefits Myers may have under the employee benefit plans and programs of the Company, in which Myers is a participant, shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of such plans and programs.  Furthermore, the Company shall be obligated to pay Myers, in addition to any payments under Section 5, the Base Salary amounts provided in Section 3 of this Agreement through the date of such termination and then for a period of 12 months following the date of such termination ("Release Pay"), provided that Myers executes a valid Release of any claims related to his employment and termination pursuant to Section 7.5.  Myers understands and agrees that in the event of the termination of employment, removal as an officer and termination of this Agreement without Cause, the obligations of Myers set forth under Section 8 herein shall remain in full force and effect. 

7.5    Release.  Myers agrees that his entitlement to Release Pay under Section 7.4 is conditioned on him executing a valid release of any claims related to his employment and termination hereunder, and that the Release Pay shall be full and adequate compensation to Myers for all damages Myers may suffer as a result of the termination of his employment without Cause. 

5

7.6    Change of Control.  In the event of a "Change of Control" of the Company (as that term is defined in the Employment Agreement dated March 25, 1997, between the Company and Myers or any successor agreement between the Company and Myers (the "Change of Control Agreement")), Myers shall thereupon become entitled to all of the rights, payments and benefits set forth in the Change of Control Agreement, and this Agreement, except for Sections 4.3 and 5 hereof, shall automatically terminate and the Company shall have no further obligation to Myers under this Agreement, it being the intent of the parties that said Sections 4.3 and 5 continue in effect and be binding on the Company following any "Change of Control."

7.7    Voluntary Termination.  In the event Myers terminates his employment of his own volition prior to the end of the Term of this Agreement, such termination shall constitute a voluntary termination and in such event the Company's only obligation to Myers, other than any obligations arising under Section 5, shall be to make Base Salary payments provided for in this Agreement through the date of such voluntary termination.  Any rights and benefits Myers may have under the employee benefit plans and programs of the Company, in which he is a participant, shall be determined in accordance with the terms and provisions of such plans and programs.  Myers understands and agrees in the event of his voluntary termination of employment the obligations of Myers set forth under Section 8 herein shall remain in full force and effect. 

7.8    Expiration of Term.  In the event this Agreement naturally expires at the end of its Term, Myers understands his employment will automatically terminate and he will be removed as an officer of the Company.  Under such circumstances, the Company shall be obligated only to pay Myers the Base Salary amounts provided in Section 3 of this Agreement through the expiration of the Term, in addition to any obligations arising under Section 5.  Any rights and benefits Myers may have under the employee benefits plans and programs of the Company, in which Myers is a participant, shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of such plans and programs.  Myers understands and agrees, however, the obligations of Myers set forth under Section 8 herein shall remain in full force and effect. 

8.    Covenants of Myers.

8.1    Myers acknowledges that as a result of the services to be rendered to the Company hereunder, Myers will be brought into close contact with many confidential affairs of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates, not readily available to the public. Myers further acknowledges that the services to be performed under this Agreement are of a special, unique, unusual, extraordinary and intellectual character; that the business of the Company is regional in scope; that its goods and services are marketed throughout a nine-state region, and that the Company competes with other organizations that are or could be located in any of the states in which the Company does business.

8.2    In recognition of the foregoing, Myers covenants and agrees that, except as is necessary in providing services under this Agreement or to the extent necessary to 

6

comply with law or the valid order of a court or government agency of competent jurisdiction, Myers will not knowingly use for his own benefit nor knowingly divulge any Confidential Information and Trade Secrets of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, which are not otherwise in the public domain and, so long as they remain Confidential Information and Trade Secrets not in the public domain, and will not intentionally disclose them to anyone outside of the Company either during or after his employment.  For the purposes of this Agreement, "Confidential Information and Trade Secrets" of the Company means information which is secret to the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliated entities.  It may include, but is not limited to, information relating to the possible store locations or acquisitions, current or possible new products or services to be offered for sale in Company stores, operating methods or procedures used in the business of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates, and other matters or details not otherwise publicly disclosed in the Company's filings with the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") whether in the form of memoranda, reports, computer software and data banks, customer lists, employee lists, books, records, financial statements, manuals, papers, contracts or strategic plans.  As a guide, Myers is to consider all information originated, owned, controlled or possessed by the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliated entities which is not disclosed in SEC filings of the Company as being secret and confidential.  In instances where doubt does or should reasonably be understood to exist in Myers' mind as to whether information is secret and confidential to the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, Myers agrees to request an opinion, in writing, from the Company.

8.3    Myers will deliver promptly to the Company on the termination of his employment with the Company, or at any other time the Company may so request, all memoranda, notes, records, reports and other documents relating to the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, and all property owned by the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, which Myers obtained while employed by the Company, and which Myers may then possess or have under his control.

8.4    During his employment and for a period of ten year(s) after the voluntary or involuntary termination of  Myers' employment with the Company (except that the time period of such restrictions shall be extended by any period during which Myers is in violation of this Section 8.4) ("Restricted Period"), Myers will not knowingly interfere with, disrupt or attempt to disrupt, any then existing relationship, contractual or otherwise between the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliated entities, and any customer, client, supplier, or agent, or knowingly solicit, or assist any other entity in soliciting for employment, any person known to Myers to be an agent or executive employee of the Company, its subsidiaries, or affiliated entities.  Furthermore, Myers agrees, that in order to protect the necessary business interests of the Company, during the Restricted Period he will not render services directly or indirectly as an employee, officer, director, consultant, independent contractor or in any other capacity to any person or entity that is a competitor of the Company.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to terminate the payments being made to (or for 

7

the benefit of) Myers under Sections 4.3 and 5 in the event of any breach by Myers of this Section 8.4.

8.5    Myers will promptly disclose to the Company all inventions, processes, original works of authorship, trademarks, patents, improvements and discoveries related to the business of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliated entities (collectively "Developments"), conceived or developed during Myers' employment with the Company and based upon information to which he had access during the term of employment, whether or not conceived during regular working hours, through the use of the Company time, material or facilities or otherwise.  All such Developments shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company, and upon request Myers shall deliver to the Company all outlines, descriptions and other data and records relating to such Developments, and shall execute any documents deemed necessary by the Company to protect the Company's rights hereunder.  Myers agrees upon request to assist the Company to obtain United States or foreign letters patent and copyright registrations covering inventions and original works of authorship belonging to the Company hereunder.  If the Company is unable because of Myers' mental or physical incapacity to secure Myers' signature to apply for or to pursue any application for any United States or foreign letters patent or copyright registrations covering inventions and original works of authorship belonging to the Company hereunder, then Myers hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as his agent and attorney in fact, to act for and in his behalf to execute and file any such applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of letters patent or copyright registrations thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by him.  Myers hereby waives and quitclaims to the Company any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, that he may hereafter have for infringement of any patents or copyright resulting from any such application for letters patent or copyright registrations belonging to the Company hereunder.

8.6    Myers agrees that the remedy at law for any breach or threatened breach of any covenant contained in this Section 8 may be inadequate and that the Company, in addition to such other remedies as may be available to it, in law or in equity, shall be entitled to injunctive relief without bond or other security.

8.7    Although the obligations and restrictions contained in this Section 8 are considered by the parties hereto to be fair and reasonable in the circumstances, it is recognized that restrictions of such nature may fail for technical reasons, and accordingly it is hereby agreed that if any of such restrictions shall be adjudged to be void or unenforceable for whatever reason, but would be valid if part of the wording thereof were deleted, or the period thereof reduced or the area dealt with thereby reduced in scope, the obligations and restrictions contained in this Section 8 shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, and the parties consent and agree that such scope or wording may be accordingly judicially modified in any proceeding brought to enforce such restrictions.

8

8.8    Notwithstanding that Myers' employment hereunder may expire or be terminated as provided in Sections 2 or 7 above, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect insofar as is necessary to enforce the covenants and agreements of Myers contained in this Section 8. 

9.    Arbitration.

The parties shall use their best efforts and good will to settle all disputes by amicable negotiations.  The Company and Myers agree that, with the express exception of any dispute or controversy arising under Section 7.2 or Section 8 of this Agreement, any controversy or claim arising out of or in any way relating to Myers' employment with the Company, including, without limitation, any and all disputes concerning this Agreement and the termination of this Agreement that are not amicably resolved by negotiation, shall be settled by arbitration in Des Moines, Iowa, or such other place agreed to by the parties, as follows:

9.1    Any such arbitration shall be heard before an arbitrator who shall be impartial.  The parties may mutually agree to any process with respect to the selection of an arbitrator.  If the parties cannot agree to a process for selecting an arbitrator, then a list of no fewer than six (6) arbitrators shall be submitted to the parties by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its rules and procedures.   The parties may then select an arbitrator via a traditional striking process or such other method upon which the parties mutually agree.

9.2    An arbitration may be commenced by any party to this Agreement by the service of a written Request for Arbitration upon the other affected party.  Such Request for Arbitration shall summarize the controversy or claim to be arbitrate, and shall be referred by the complaining party to the appointing authority for a list of arbitrators ten (10) days following such service unless another process for selecting an arbitrator is agreed to by the parties under Section 9.1.  No Request for Arbitration shall be valid if it relates to a claim, dispute, disagreement or controversy that would have been time barred under the applicable statute of limitations had such claim, dispute, disagreement or controversy been submitted to the courts of the State of Iowa.

9.3    Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

9.4    It is intended that controversies or claims submitted to arbitration under this Section 9 shall remain confidential, and to that end it is agreed by the parties that neither the facts disclosed in the arbitration, the issues arbitrated, nor the views or opinions of any persons concerning them, shall be disclosed to third persons at any time, except to the extent necessary to enforce an award or judgment or as required by law or in response to legal process or in connection with such arbitration.  In addition, Myers and the Company shall be entitled to disclose the facts disclosed in arbitration, the issues arbitrated, and the views or opinions of any persons concerning them to legal and tax advisors so long as such advisors agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.  

9

Myers acknowledges and agrees that certain information concerning any such arbitration may need to be disclosed by the Company in a SEC filing, and that he hereby consents thereto.

10.2    Assignment by Myers.

11.    Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be deemed a contract made under, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Iowa without reference to the principles of conflict of laws.

12.    Entire Agreement.

This Agreement expressly replaces and supersedes the Employment Agreement entered by the parties on March 21, 2007.  

13.    Amendment or Modification; Waiver.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, no waiver by either party hereto of any breach by the other party of any condition or provision of the Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar provision or condition at the same or any prior or subsequent time.

Amendment to Employment Agreement

This Amendment to Employment Agreement ("Amendment") is entered into by and between Casey's General Stores, Inc., an Iowa corporation (the "Company"), and Robert J. Myers ("Myers"), as of this 18th day of December, 2012.

WHEREAS, the Company and Myers are parties to an Employment Agreement dated as of April 16, 2010 (the "Original Agreement"), providing for the terms of Myers' employment by the Company as its President and Chief Executive Officer; and

WHEREAS, the Company and Myers have agreed to continue the term of employment beyond the date specified in the Original Agreement.

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

Section 1.    Amendment of Section 2.  Section 2 of the Original Agreement, entitled "Term and Notice of Intention to Serve", is hereby amended to delete the existing text of said Section 2 and to substitute therefore the following:

2.1    Term.  The term of employment under this Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall continue through April 30, 2015 (the "Term"), unless sooner terminated in accordance with this Agreement.  Any service beyond April 30, 2015 shall be subject to formal acceptance by the Company's Board of Directors, upon such terms as shall be mutually agreed.

Section 2.    Amendment of Section 5.  Section 5 of the Original Agreement, entitled "Retirement Benefits", is hereby amended to delete the existing text of said Section 5 and to substitute therefore the following:

5.1    Commencing on January 1 of the year following Myers’ separation from service (the "Initial Payment Year"), the Company shall pay to Myers and following Myers' death, to Myers' surviving spouse (if any), until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the period ending on December 31 of the year that is nine (9) years after the Initial Payment Year or (ii) the death of Myers and Myers' spouse, an annual retirement benefit of $330,000 per year to be paid in equal monthly installments on the first day of each calendar month.  “Separation from service” refers and shall be defined with reference to the term “separation from service” under section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h), as last amended.

5.2    If payment to Myers in accordance with Section 5.1 of this Agreement of any amount that is “deferred compensation” subject to Code section 409A at the time 

1

otherwise payable under this Agreement would subject such payment to additional tax under Code section 409A(a)(1)(B), and if the payment of such amount at a later date would avoid any such additional tax, then the payment of such amount shall be deferred until the later of (a) the date of payment specified in this Agreement, or (b) the earliest date on which such payment can be paid without incurring any such additional tax.
