EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as of the 24th day of October, 1997, by and between Casey's General Stores, Inc., an Iowa corporation (the "Company"), and Ronald M. Lamb ("Lamb").

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board of Directors") recognizes that the dedication of Lamb as an officer and director to the affairs and welfare of the Company since its organization has resulted in a long and successful association; and

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors further recognizes that the Company has grown and prospered as a result of its association with Lamb, and has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to preserve this association so as to enable the Company to further benefit from Lamb's superior knowledge and expertise in all of its present and future business endeavors; and

WHEREAS, the Company and Lamb are parties to an Employment Agreement dated as of March 2, 1992, as amended by a First Amendment to Employment Agreement dated as of January 16, 1997 (together, the "Original Agreement"), providing for the employment of Lamb to serve as the President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company under the terms and conditions set forth therein; and

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors has further determined that it is appropriate and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to modify the existing contractual arrangements with respect to Lamb's employment by the Company, with the concurrence of Lamb, and to amend and restate the Original Agreement to reflect the same; and

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors has further determined that it is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders to assure that the Company will have the continued dedication of Lamb, notwithstanding the possibility, threat or occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined below) of the Company, and to further encourage Lamb's full attention and dedication to the Company currently and in the event of any threatened or pending Change of Control, and to provide Lamb with compensation arrangements upon a Change of Control which provide him with compensation for expected losses that he would suffer in the event of a Change of Control and which are competitive with those 

1

of other corporations, and, in order to accomplish these objectives, has determined to cause the Company to enter into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1.    Certain Definitions.  For purposes of this Agreement, and in addition to the other definitions set forth herein, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

a)    "Change of Control" shall mean:

(i)    the acquisition (other than from the Company) by any Person (as hereinafter defined), entity or "group" within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), (excluding for this purpose, the Company or any employee benefit plan of the Company, which acquires beneficial ownership of voting securities of the Company) of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of twenty percent (20%) or more of either the then outstanding shares of Common Stock, no par value, of the Company or the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (hereinafter referred to as the "Common Stock"), unless such beneficial ownership was acquired as a result of an acquisition of shares of Common Stock by the Company which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the proportionate number of shares beneficially owned by such Person, entity or "group" to twenty percent (20%) or more of the Common Stock of the Company then outstanding; provided, however, that if a Person, entity or "group" shall become the beneficial owner of twenty percent (20%) or more of the Common Stock of the Company then outstanding by reason of share purchases by the Company and shall, after such share purchases by the Company, become the beneficial owner of any additional shares of Common Stock of the Company, then such Person, entity or "group" shall be deemed to have met the conditions hereof; or

(ii)    individuals who, as of the date hereof, constitute the Board of Directors (as of the date hereof, the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election, or nomination for election by the Company's shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board (other than an election or nomination of an individual 

2

whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest relating to the election of the directors of the Company, as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) shall be, for purposes of this Agreement considered as though such person were a member of the Incumbent Board; or 

(iii)    approval by the shareholders of the Company of a reorganization, merger, consolidation (in each case, with respect to which persons who were the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation do not, immediately thereafter, own more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the reorganized, merged or consolidated company's then outstanding voting securities) or a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.  

(b)    "Annual Increase" shall take effect on each January 1 for which the benefit at issue is payable and shall mean fifty percent (50%) of the annual increase in the National Consumer Price Index for the City of Des Moines, Iowa, as published by the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics.  

(c)    "Annual Bonus" shall mean any bonus payable at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company, on such terms and in such amounts as it shall determine.  

(d)    "Employment Period" shall mean the term of Lamb's employment under this Agreement, as set forth in Section 2 hereof.  

(e)    "Code" shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  

(f)    "Accrued Obligations" shall mean (i) Lamb's Salary through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect on the Date of Termination, (ii) the product of the Annual Bonus paid to Lamb for the last full fiscal year and a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the current fiscal year through the Date of Termination, and the denominator of which is 365 and (iii) any compensation previously deferred (together with any accrued interest thereon) and not yet paid by the Company and any accrued vacation pay not yet paid by the Company.  

(g)    "Person" shall mean any individual, firm, corporation or other entity, and shall include any successor (by merger or otherwise) and all "affiliates" and "associates" 

3

of such entity (as those terms are defined in Rule 12b-2 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act).

2.    Employment and Term.  The Company agrees to employ Lamb, and Lamb agrees to serve the Company, as Chief Operating Officer and President of the Company on the terms and under the conditions set forth in this Agreement.  The initial term of employment under this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and shall terminate on April 30, 2000 (the "Initial Term"), after which this Agreement and the Employment Period hereunder shall be automatically renewed and extended for successive periods of three years (each of which shall be a "Renewal Term"), subject to the right of the Company and Lamb to terminate this Agreement during the Initial Term or any such Renewal Term in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in subsequent sections of this Agreement, and further subject to the right of the Company and Lamb to cause this Agreement and the Employment Period hereunder to expire at the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term by giving written notice thereof at least one year prior to the end of the Initial Term or the then current Renewal Term, as applicable; provided, however, that in the event of a Change of Control during the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, this Agreement and the Employment Period hereunder automatically shall continue in full force and effect for the greater of (i) the remaining term of employment then in progress or (ii) three years from the effective date of the Change of Control.  References herein to the Employment Period shall refer to both the Initial Term and any successive Renewal Term.  

3.    Duties of Lamb.  During the period of his employment in the capacity of Chief Operating Officer and President, Lamb will perform his duties to the best of his ability, subject to the control of the Board of Directors.  It is agreed and understood that the position (including status, office, title and reporting requirements), authority, duties and responsibilities of Lamb shall be substantially the same as those performed by Lamb as Chief Operating Officer and President of the Company prior to the date of this Agreement, and that Lamb shall at all times serve the best interests of the Company.  The Company agrees that Lamb shall at all times have such authority and discretion as is required in the carrying out of Lamb's duties in a proper and efficient manner, subject to review by the Board of Directors.

During the period of his employment, it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for Lamb to (i) serve on corporate, civil or charitable boards or committees, (ii) deliver lectures or fulfill speaking engagements and (iii) manage personal investments, so long as such activities do not significantly interfere with the performance of Lamb's responsibilities as an employee of the Company in accordance with this Agreement.  It is expressly understood and agreed that to the extent that any such activities have been conducted by Lamb prior to the date hereof, the continued conduct of such activities (or 

4

the conduct of activities similar in nature and scope thereto) subsequent to the date hereof shall not thereafter be deemed to interfere with the performance of Lamb's responsibilities to the Company.

4.    Compensation.  The Company shall pay to Lamb an annual salary of Three Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($350,000), payable in equal monthly installments, or such other amount as shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and Lamb (the "Salary").  In addition, Lamb and/or Lamb's family shall be entitled to receive all benefits presently provided or those which may hereafter be generally provided by the Company to its employees, officers or directors, including health insurance and life insurance.  With respect to such health insurance benefits, the Company agrees that at all times the health insurance coverages available to Lamb and his spouse under such plans shall include provisions providing for lifetime benefits payable on behalf of Lamb and his spouse of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) each, or such other amount as the Company and Lamb may specifically agree upon in writing, subject, however, to any limitations, restrictions or conditions that shall from time to time be necessary to satisfy the requirements of applicable federal or state laws and regulations.

5.    Termination of Employment.  (a) Death or Disability.  Lamb's employment under this Agreement shall terminate automatically upon Lamb's death.  If the Company determines in good faith that the Disability of Lamb has occurred (pursuant to the definition of "Disability" set forth below), it may give to Lamb written notice of its intention to terminate Lamb's employment as Chief Operating Officer and President.  In such event, Lamb's employment with the Company shall terminate effective on the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt of such notice by Lamb (the "Disability Effective Date"), provided that, within the thirty (30) days after such receipt, Lamb shall not have returned to full-time performance of his duties.  For purposes of this Agreement, "Disability" means disability or incapacity of Lamb which, at least twenty-six (26) weeks after its commencement, is determined by the Board of Directors upon competent medical advice to be such as to prevent Lamb from performing substantially all of the duties of Chief Operating Officer and President of the Company.

(b)    Cause.  The Company may terminate Lamb's employment for "Cause."  For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" means (i) an act or acts of personal dishonesty taken by Lamb and intended to result in substantial personal enrichment of Lamb at the expense of the Company, (ii) repeated violations by Lamb of Lamb's obligations under Section 3 of this Agreement which are demonstrably willful and deliberate on Lamb's part and which are not remedied in a reasonable period of time after receipt of written notice from the Company or (iii) the conviction of Lamb of a felony when such conviction is no longer subject to direct appeal.

5

(c)    Good Reason.  Lamb's employment may be terminated by Lamb for Good Reason.  For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" means:

(i)    the assignment to Lamb of any duties inconsistent in any respect with Lamb's position (including status, office, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties or responsibilities as contemplated by Section 3 of this Agreement, or any other action by the Company which results in a diminution in such position, authority, duties or responsibilities, excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice thereof given by Lamb;

(ii)    Any failure by the Company to comply with the provisions of Section 4 of this Agreement, other than an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent failure not occurring in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice thereof given by Lamb; 

(iii)    the Company's requiring Lamb to be based at any office or location other than the Company's Corporate Headquarters facility in Ankeny, Iowa, except for travel reasonably required in the performance of Lamb's responsibilities;

(iv)    any purported termination by the Company of Lamb's employment otherwise than for death, Disability or Cause as expressly permitted by this Agreement; or

(v)    any failure by the Company to comply with and satisfy Section 13(c) of this Agreement.

For purposes of this Section 5(c), any good faith determination of "Good Reason" made by Lamb shall be conclusive. 

(d)    Notice of Termination.  Any termination by the Company for Cause or by Lamb for Good Reason shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 14(b) of this Agreement.  For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" means a written notice which (i) indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Lamb's employment under the provision so indicated and (iii) if the Date of Termination (as defined below) is other than the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date (which date shall be not more than fifteen (15) days after the giving of such notice).  The failure of Lamb to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason shall not waive any right of Lamb 

6

hereunder or preclude Lamb from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing his rights hereunder.

(e)    Date of Termination.  "Date of Termination" means the date of receipt of the Notice of Termination or any later date specified therein, as the case may be; provided, however, that (i) if Lamb's employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which the Company notifies Lamb of such termination and (ii) if Lamb's employment is terminated by reason of death or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date of death of Lamb or the Disability Effective Date, as the case may be.

6.    Obligations of the Company upon Termination of Employment.   (a)  Death of Lamb.  In the event of the death of Lamb during the term hereof, the Company shall pay to Lamb's spouse, commencing on the first day of the month following his death and continuing for a period of twenty-four (24) months thereafter, benefits equal to the monthly installments of Salary which was then being paid to Lamb pursuant to Section 4 herein.  Immediately following such two-year period, the Company shall commence the payment of monthly benefits to Lamb's spouse equal in amount to one-fourth (1/4) of the monthly installments of Salary which was being paid to Lamb at the time of his death under Section 4 herein, which monthly benefits shall be paid for a period of twenty (20) years or until the death of Lamb's spouse, whichever occurs first.  In addition, the Company shall continue at all times to offer and provide health insurance coverage to Lamb's spouse, in accordance with the plans, programs, practices and policies provided by the Company under the terms of this Agreement at the time of Lamb's death, until the death of Lamb's spouse, except to the extent such coverage is or otherwise becomes available to Lamb's spouse under the Medicare program of benefits.

(b)    Disability of Lamb.  If Lamb's employment is terminated by reason of the Disability of Lamb, Lamb's employment under this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Lamb, other than those obligations accrued or earned and vested (if applicable) by Lamb as of the Date of Termination, including for this purpose, all Accrued Obligations and those set forth herein.  All such Accrued Obligations shall be paid to Lamb in a lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination.  Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Lamb shall be entitled after the Disability Effective Date to receive disability and other benefits in an amount equal to one-half (1/2) of his Salary (adjusted on an annual basis by the amount of the Annual Increase), which shall be payable in equal monthly installments until the close of the calendar year during which Lamb attains sixty-five (65) years of age or until the last day of the month in which Lamb is no longer deemed disabled pursuant to this Agreement, or until Lamb's death, whichever shall first occur.

7

If Lamb shall receive any disability payments from any insurance policies paid for by the Company, the payments to Lamb pursuant to this provision shall be reduced by the amount of disability payments received by Lamb under any such insurance policy or policies.

If, following the termination of Lamb's employment by reason of Disability, the Board of Directors determines, upon competent medical advice, that Lamb is no longer prevented by said Disability from performing substantially all of the duties as Chief Operating Officer and President of the Company, the Company shall give Lamb not less than thirty (30) days written notice of its election to cease the payment of Disability benefits to him pursuant to this Section 6(b), following which (i) the Company shall have no further obligations to Lamb to make said Disability payments as provided herein and (ii) Lamb thereafter shall be entitled to retire and terminate his employment with the Company, without further action or notice on his part, and to receive the benefits payable under the Non-Qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan of the Company (the "SERP") (or any successor plan), as and to the extent set forth therein, and shall hold himself available to the Board of Directors for consultation as provided in Section 10 hereof.

Notwithstanding any Disability on the part of Lamb, the Company shall continue at all times to offer and provide health insurance coverages to Lamb and his spouse, in accordance with the most favorable plans, programs, practices and policies provided by the Company during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Disability Effective Date or, if more favorable to Lamb, as in effect at any time thereafter with respect to other key employees and their families, until the death of Lamb and his spouse, except to the extent such coverage is or otherwise becomes available to Lamb and his spouse under the Medicare program of benefits.

(c)    Cause; Other than for Good Reason.  If Lamb's employment shall be terminated for Cause, Lamb's employment under this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Lamb (other than the obligation to pay to Lamb his Salary through the Date of Termination plus the amount of any compensation previously deferred by Lamb, together with accrued interest thereon).  If Lamb terminates employment other than for Good Reason, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Lamb, other than those obligations accrued or earned and vested (if applicable) by Lamb through the Date of Termination, including for this purpose, all Accrued Obligations.  All such Accrued Obligations shall be paid to Lamb in a lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination.

(d)    Good Reason; Other than for Cause or Disability. If the Company shall terminate Lamb's employment other than for Cause, Disability, or death or if Lamb shall 

8

terminate his employment for Good Reason at any time during the Employment Period, except during a three-year period following any Change of Control (in which case the provisions of Section 6(e) shall apply), then in such event:

(i)    the Company shall pay to Lamb in a lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days after the Date of Termination the aggregate of the following amounts:

A.    to the extent not theretofore paid, Lamb's Salary through the Date of Termination; and

B.    the product of (x) the highest Annual Bonus paid to Lamb during the three (3) fiscal years preceding the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs (the "Recent Bonus") and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the current fiscal year through the date of Termination and the denominator of which is 365; and

C.    the product of (x) two (2.0) and (y) the sum of (i) the Salary and (ii) the Recent Bonus; and

D.    in the case of compensation previously deferred by Lamb, all amounts previously deferred (together with any accrued interest thereon) and not yet paid by the Company, and any accrued vacation pay not yet paid by the Company; and
(ii)    for a two-year period following the Date of Termination, the Company shall continue benefits to Lamb and/or Lamb's family at least equal to those which would have been provided to them in accordance with the plans, programs, practices and policies provided under this Agreement if Lamb's employment had not been terminated, including health insurance and life insurance, in accordance with the most favorable plans, practices, programs or policies provided by the Company and its subsidiaries during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to Lamb, as in effect at any time thereafter with respect to other key employees and their families.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the Company shall continue at all times to offer and provide the above-described health insurance coverages to Lamb and his spouse until their respective dates of death, except to the extent such coverage is or otherwise becomes available to Lamb and his spouse under the Medicare program of benefits.

(e)    Good Reason; Other than for Cause or Disability, following a Change of Control.  If, during a three year period following any Change of Control, the Company 

9

shall terminate Lamb's employment other than for Cause, Disability, or death or if Lamb shall terminate his employment for Good Reason:

(i)    the Company shall pay to Lamb in a lump sum in cash on the thirtieth (30th) day following the Date of Termination the aggregate of the following amounts:

A.    to the extent not theretofore paid, Lamb's Salary through the Date of Termination; and

B.    the product of (x) the Recent Bonus and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the current fiscal year through the date of Termination and the denominator of which is 365; and

C.    the product of (x) three (3.0) and (y) the sum of (i) the Salary and (ii) the Recent Bonus; and

D.    in the case of compensation previously deferred by Lamb, all amounts previously deferred (together with any accrued interest thereon) and not yet paid by the Company, and any accrued vacation pay not yet paid by the Company; and

(ii)    for a three-year period following the Date of Termination, the Company shall continue benefits to Lamb and/or Lamb's family at least equal to those which would have been provided to them in accordance with the plans, programs, practices and policies provided under this Agreement if Lamb's employment had not been terminated, including health insurance and life insurance, in accordance with the most favorable plans, practices, programs or policies provided by the Company and its subsidiaries during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to Lamb, as in effect at any time thereafter with respect to other key employees and their families.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the Company shall continue at all times to offer and provide the above-described health insurance coverages to Lamb and his spouse until their respective dates of death, except to the extent such coverage is or otherwise becomes available to Lamb and his spouse under the Medicare program of benefits.

(f)    Alternative Excise Tax Cap.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6(e) hereof, if any payments or benefits received or to be received by Lamb (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement with the Company, any person whose actions result in a Change of Control or any person 

10

affiliated with the Company or such person) constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)(A) of the Code and the value thereof exceeds 2.99 times Lamb's "base amount," as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code, then, in lieu thereof, the Company shall pay to Lamb, as soon as practicable following the Date of Termination but in no event later than thirty (30) days thereafter, a lump sum cash payment equal to 2.99 times his "base amount" (the "Alternative Severance Payment"), reduced as provided below.  The value of the payments to be made under Section 6(e) and Lamb's base amount shall be determined in accordance with temporary or final regulations, if any, promulgated under Section 280G of the Code and based upon the advice of the tax counsel referred to below.

The Alternative Severance Payment shall be reduced by the amount of any other payment or the value of any benefit received or to be received by Lamb in connection with a Change of Control of the Company or his termination of employment unless (i) Lamb shall have effectively waived his receipt or enjoyment of such payment or benefit prior to the date of payment of the Alternative Severance Payment, (ii) in the opinion of tax counsel selected by the Company's independent auditors, such other payment or benefit does not constitute a "parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, or (iii) in the opinion of such tax counsel, the Alternative Severance Payment plus all other payments or benefits which constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code are reasonable compensation for services actually rendered within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4) of the Code or are otherwise not subject to disallowance as a deduction by reason of Section 280G of the Code.  The value of any non-cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined in accordance with the principles of Section 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code.

(g)    Section 162(m) Limitation.  In the event that the payments due to Lamb under this Section 6 exceed the "reasonable compensation" limitations of Section 162(m) of the Code, that portion thereof that would not be deductible by the Company in the taxable year in which the payment is due shall be deferred by the Company and paid to Lamb on the date that is sixteen (16) months following the Date of Termination, together with interest thereon at the rate provided in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Code.

7.    Non-exclusivity of Rights.  Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit Lamb's continuing or future participation in any benefit, bonus, incentive or other plans, programs, policies or practices, provided by the Company and for which Lamb may qualify, including but not limited to the SERP, nor shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as Lamb may have under the SERP or any stock option or other agreements with the Company.  Amounts which are vested benefits or which Lamb is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, policy, practice or program of the Company at or subsequent to the Date of Termination, including but not limited to the 

11

SERP, shall be payable in accordance with the SERP or such plan, policy, practice or program.

8.    Full Settlement.  The Company's obligation to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action which the Company may have against Lamb or others.  In no event shall Lamb be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to Lamb under any of the provisions of this Agreement, but such payments shall be reduced to the extent of Lamb's other earned income (if any) during any remaining portion of the Employment Period.  Following any Change of Control, the Company agrees to pay, to the full extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses which Lamb may reasonably incur as a result of any contest (regardless of the outcome thereof) by the Company or others (including Lamb) of the validity or enforceability of, or liability under, any provision of this Agreement or any guarantee of performance thereof, plus in each case interest at the applicable Federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Code.

9.    Retirement of Lamb.  It is understood that Lamb shall retire on the last day of the calendar year during which he reaches sixty-five (65) years of age.  The Board of Directors of the Company, at its sole option, may offer to extend Lamb's employment on a year-to-year basis after the calendar year in which Lamb reaches age sixty-five (65).  At the conclusion of each year it will be presumed that Lamb will retire unless the Board of Directors determines to offer to extend Lamb's employment for an additional year.

Following the retirement of Lamb, the Company shall continue at all times to offer and provide health insurance coverages to Lamb and his spouse, in accordance with the most favorable plans, programs, practices and policies provided by the Company during the 90-day period immediately preceding the effective date of Lamb's retirement or, if more favorable to Lamb, as in effect at any time thereafter with respect to other key employees and their families, until the death of Lamb and his spouse, except to the extent such coverage is or otherwise becomes available to Lamb and his spouse under the Medicare program of benefits.

10.    Availability of Lamb After Retirement.  Following his retirement, Lamb shall at reasonable times and insofar as his physical condition may permit, hold himself available at the written request of the Board of Directors of the Company to consult with and advise the officers, directors, and other representatives of the Company.  Such requests for Lamb's service shall, however, be structured so that reasonable allowances are made for Lamb's needs for vacation time and for other considerations of his physical well-being.  All such services shall be provided by Lamb at his place of residence unless 

12

otherwise agreed to by Lamb.  Lamb shall not be required to devote any prescribed hours to consulting with and giving advice to the officers, directors, and other representatives of the Company in order to be entitled to the retirement benefits as set out in the SERP, but all such benefits shall be considered as earned in return for the consulting service and advice that Lamb may give from time to time to the Company, its officers, directors, and other representatives.

If Lamb's physical condition shall prevent him from consulting and advising with the officers, directors or other representatives of the Company, the retirement benefits provided under the SERP shall nonetheless be paid as therein provided.

Lamb shall be reimbursed by the Company for all reasonable expenses incurred as a consultant and advisor, including expenses for travel, communication, entertainment and similar items, upon presentation of itemized accounts of such expenditures.

11.    Discretion of Board of Directors.  Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement to the contrary, nothing stated herein is intended to, nor shall it be construed, to abrogate, limit, alter or affect the authority, rights and privileges of the Board of Directors of the Company to remove Lamb as Chief Operating Officer and President of the Company, without Cause, or during the term of this Agreement to elect as Chief Operating Officer and President of the Company a person other than Lamb, as provided by the laws of the State of Iowa; provided, however, it is expressly agreed and understood that in the event any one or any combination of such events occurs, unless Lamb is terminated for Cause as defined in Section 5(b) hereof, Lamb may terminate his employment for Good Reason, in which case the Company shall pay Lamb the benefits described in either Section 6(d) or Section 6(e) of this Agreement, as applicable, in consideration thereof.

12.     Confidential Information; Restrictive Covenant.  (a) During the period of his employment, Lamb shall hold in fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company all secret or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and their respective businesses, which shall have been obtained by Lamb during Lamb's employment by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and which shall not be or become public knowledge (other than by acts by Lamb or his representatives in violation of this Agreement).  During a three (3) year period following termination of Lamb's employment with the Company, Lamb shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, communicate or divulge any such information, knowledge or data to anyone other than the Company and those designated by it.  

(b)    While this Agreement remains in effect and Lamb is entitled to compensation or benefits pursuant to Sections 4 through 6 hereof (or, in the event of 

13

termination of his employment for Good Reason, for a period of three (3) years thereafter), Lamb shall not directly or indirectly associate with, participate in or render service to, whether as an employee, officer, director, consultant, independent contractor or otherwise, any organization that is engaged in business in competition with the Company, and he shall not himself engage in any such business on his own account.

(c)    In the event of a demonstrated breach of this Section 12, the parties agree that the Company shall be entitled to seek equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent any anticipated continuing breach of the terms and conditions of this Section 12 and to secure the enforcement thereof.  The foregoing remedy shall be exclusive and in lieu of any other remedy otherwise available to the Company under law.

13.    Successors.  (a)  This Agreement is personal to Lamb and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by Lamb otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Lamb's legal representatives.

(b)    This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns.

             Any  final  payment  or  distribution  to a  Participant  or his  legal representative  or to the spouse of such Participant  under the Plan shall be in full  satisfaction  of all claims against the Plan and the Company arising under or by virtue of the Plan.

Section 6.08. Application of Code Section 409A. If payment to a Participant 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 Plan 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 (i) the date of payment specified in this Plan, or (ii) 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 Plan, 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. 
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the provisions of the Plan not amended by the foregoing resolutions, which are incorporated herein by this reference, are hereby in all respects authorized, approved and confirmed.
