(h) receipt by TriplePoint of the officer’s certificate signed by Agri-Energy’s chief financial officer, together
with copies of resolutions of the Board of Governors of Agri-Energy or other authorizing documents, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to TriplePoint and its counsel, authorizing the execution and delivery of this Amendment and any
related agreements; 

 (i) receipt by TriplePoint of the officer’s certificate signed by

delivery of the documents referenced in clauses (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of this Section 6 and any related agreements; and 

(j) the absence of any Defaults or Events of Default as of the date hereof. 

7. Additional Negative Covenant. Agri-Energy shall not make any material changes to its executive or employee compensation or benefit
plans in existence as of the date hereof including, but not limited to, any compensation schedules or severance packages, on or prior to January 1, 2015, without the approval of its board of directors. 

8. Amendment to Notes. If any provision of this Amendment relates to a provision appearing in any Promissory Note, then the parallel
provision in such Promissory Note shall be deemed to be amended on the same terms as this Amendment. 
 9. Entire Agreement. This
Amendment, together with the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, is the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Amendment supersedes all prior and contemporaneous oral and written
agreements and discussions with respect to the subject matter hereof. 
 10. Recitals. The recitals to this Amendment shall
constitute a part of the agreement of the parties hereto. 
 11. Applicable Law. This Amendment has been made, executed and delivered
in the State of California and will be governed and construed for all purposes in accordance with the laws of the State of California, excluding conflict of laws principles that would cause the application of laws of any other jurisdiction. 

12. Consent To Jurisdiction And Venue. All judicial proceedings arising in or under or related to this Amendment may be brought in any
state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of California. By execution and delivery of this Amendment, each Party hereto generally and unconditionally: (a) consents to personal jurisdiction in San Mateo County, State
of California; (b) waives any objection as to jurisdiction or venue in San Mateo County, State of California; (c) agrees not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue in the aforesaid courts; and (d) irrevocably
agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Amendment. 
 13. Mutual Waiver Of Jury Trial; Judicial
Reference. Because disputes arising in connection with complex financial transactions are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced and expert person and the Parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than
arbitration rules), the Parties desire that their disputes be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE PARTIES SPECIFICALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CAUSE
OF ACTION, CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD PARTY CLAIM OR ANY OTHER CLAIM (COLLECTIVELY, “CLAIMS”) ASSERTED BY YOU AGAINST US OR OUR ASSIGNEE OR BY US OR OUR ASSIGNEE AGAINST YOU. IN THE EVENT THAT THE FOREGOING JURY TRIAL
WAIVER IS NOT ENFORCEABLE, ALL CLAIMS, INCLUDING ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS OF LAW OR FACT RELATING THERETO, SHALL, AT THE WRITTEN REQUEST OF ANY PARTY, BE DETERMINED BY JUDICIAL REFERENCE PURSUANT TO THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE. THE PARTIES
SHALL SELECT A SINGLE NEUTRAL REFEREE, WHO SHALL BE A RETIRED STATE OR FEDERAL JUDGE. IN THE EVENT THAT THE PARTIES CANNOT AGREE UPON A REFEREE, THE REFEREE SHALL BE APPOINTED BY THE COURT. THE REFEREE SHALL REPORT A STATEMENT OF DECISION TO THE
COURT. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY AT ANY TIME TO EXERCISE LAWFUL SELF-HELP REMEDIES, FORECLOSE AGAINST COLLATERAL OR OBTAIN PROVISIONAL REMEDIES. THE PARTIES SHALL BEAR THE FEES AND EXPENSES OF THE REFEREE EQUALLY
UNLESS THE REFEREE ORDERS OTHERWISE. THE REFEREE SHALL ALSO DETERMINE ALL ISSUES RELATING TO THE APPLICABILITY, INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS SECTION. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE CLAIMS WILL NOT BE ADJUDICATED BY A JURY. THIS WAIVER
EXTENDS TO ALL SUCH CLAIMS, INCLUDING CLAIMS THAT INVOLVE PERSONS OTHER THAN YOU AND US; CLAIMS THAT ARISE OUT OF OR ARE IN ANY WAY CONNECTED TO THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND US; AND ANY CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES, BREACH OF CONTRACT, SPECIFIC
PERFORMANCE OR ANY EQUITABLE OR LEGAL RELIEF OF ANY KIND, ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT. 

 14. Signatures. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which will be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together constitute one and the same instrument. This Amendment may be executed and delivered by facsimile or transmitted electronically in either Tagged Image Format Files
(“TIFF”) or Portable Document Format (“PDF”) and, upon such delivery, the facsimile, TIFF or PDF signature, as applicable, will be deemed to have the same effect as if the original signature had been delivered to
the other party. 
 15. Costs and Expenses. Agri-Energy reaffirms its obligations to pay, in accordance with the terms of
Section 20 of the Loan Agreement, all reasonable costs and expenses of TriplePoint in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Amendment and all other Loan Documents entered into in connection herewith. 

16. Effect. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, from and after the date hereof, each reference in the Loan Agreement to
“this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Loan Agreement as amended hereby and each reference in the other Loan Documents to the Loan Agreement,
“thereunder,” “thereof,” or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Loan Agreement as amended hereby. 

17. Conflict of Terms. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Amendment and any provision of the Loan
Agreement, the terms and provisions of this Amendment shall govern and control. 
 18. Release. In consideration of the benefits
provided to each of Agri-Energy and Gevo under this Amendment, each of Agri-Energy and Gevo hereby agrees as follows: 
 (a)
Agri-Energy and Gevo, for themselves and on behalf of their respective successors and assigns, do hereby release, acquit and forever discharge TriplePoint, and the past or present officers, directors, attorneys, affiliates, employees and agents of
TriplePoint, and each of their respective successors and assigns, from any and all claims, demands, obligations, liabilities, causes of action, offsets, damages, costs or expenses, of every type, kind or nature, whether known or unknown, suspected
or unsuspected, liquidated or unliquidated, including any claims that Agri-Energy, Gevo and their respective successors, counsel and advisors may in the future discover they would have now had if they had known facts not now known to them, whether
founded in contract, in tort or pursuant to any other theory of liability, that Agri-Energy or Gevo now has or may acquire against any one or more of them, arising out of events or transactions which occurred on or before the date hereof (each a
“Released Claim” and collectively, the “Released Claims”), including without limitation, those Released Claims arising out of or connected with the transactions arising under or related to any of the Loan Documents.

 (b) Each individual signing this Amendment on behalf of Agri-Energy and Gevo acknowledges that he or she has read each of
the provisions of this section, and has had the opportunity to review the legal consequences of this section with an attorney. Agri-Energy and Gevo acknowledge and agree that they are aware of, familiar with, understand, and expressly waive the
provisions of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, and any other similar statute, code, law or regulation to the fullest extent it may waive such rights and benefits. Section 1542 provides: 

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE
RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR. 
 (c) The provisions, waivers
and releases set forth in this Section are binding upon Agri-Energy, Gevo and their respective assigns and successors in interest. The provisions, waivers and releases of this Section shall inure to the benefit of TriplePoint and its agents,
employees, officers, directors, assigns and successors in interest. Agri-Energy and Gevo warrant and represent that they are the sole and lawful owner of all right, title and interest in and to all of the claims released hereby and they have not
heretofore voluntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, assigned or transferred or purported to assign or transfer to any person any such claim or any portion thereof. Each of Agri-Energy and Gevo shall indemnify and hold harmless TriplePoint from
and against any claim, demand, damage, debt and liability (including payment of attorneys’ fees and costs actually incurred whether or not litigation is commenced) based on or arising out 

 
of any such assignment or transfer. The provisions of this section shall survive the date hereof. Nothing herein is or should be construed to be a release of claims against Agri-Energy or Gevo or
a satisfaction of any indebtedness. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Amendment to be executed and delivered as of the
date first above written.

 Exhibit 10.3 

PLAIN ENGLISH INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SECURITY AGREEMENT 

This is a Plain English Intellectual Property Security Agreement dated December 11, 2013 (this “Agreement”), by and between
TRIPLEPOINT CAPITAL LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and GEVO, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Gevo”). 
 The words
“We”, “Us”, or “Our”, refer to the grantee, which is TriplePoint Capital LLC. The words “You” or “Your” refers to the grantor, which is Gevo and not any individual.
The words “the Parties” refers to both TriplePoint Capital LLC and Gevo. 
 The Parties have entered into that certain Fourth Amendment to
Plain English Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Fourth Amendment”), and it is a condition to the effectiveness of the Fourth Amendment that Gevo grant to Us a lien on and a security interest (subject only to
Permitted Liens) in the below-defined Intellectual Property Collateral. 
 In consideration for the mutual covenants and agreements contained in the Fourth
Amendment and the Guaranty (as defined below) and this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows: 

 

	1.	GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST IN INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY 

 You grant to Us a lien upon and continuing security
interest in (subject only to Permitted Liens) all of Your right, title, and interest in, to and under all of the following (all of the following items of property collectively will be referred to as the “Intellectual Property
Collateral”), whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired: 
  

	 	•	 	All registered Intellectual Property listed on Schedules A, B and C hereto, other than any intent-to-use trademark applications unless and until a statement of use or amendment to allege use is
filed and accepted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any other filing is made or circumstances otherwise change so that the interests of Gevo in such trademarks are no longer on an “intent-to-use” basis, at which time
such trademarks shall automatically and without further action by the parties be subject to the security interest granted by Gevo to Us hereunder, and 

  

	 	•	 	any and all Proceeds of the foregoing. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the term “Intellectual Property Collateral” shall not include any assets or property that are
excluded from the definition of Collateral by operation of the last paragraph of Section 2 of the Security Agreement. 

 You represent
and warrant to Us that, as of the date hereof, Schedules A, B, and C attached hereto set forth any and all Intellectual Property that You have registered or filed an application with either the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United
States Copyright Office, as applicable. 
  

	2.	LOAN AGREEMENT 

 The security interest that is granted pursuant to this Agreement secures the Secured
Obligations whether now existing or arising hereafter. All the capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined are used in this Agreement with the same meaning as defined in that certain Plain English Continuing Guaranty dated as of
September 22, 2010, between You and Us, as amended by that certain Reaffirmation and Consent of Guarantor and First Amendment to Plain English Continuing Guaranty dated as of September 22, 2010, between You and Us (as may be further
amended, modified, revised, supplemented, extended, restated or replaced from time to time, collectively, the “Guaranty”). 

	3.	OUR RIGHT TO SUE 

 Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the
terms of the Plain English Security Agreement by and between Us and You dated as of September 22, 2010 (as may be further amended, modified, revised, supplemented, extended, restated or replaced from time to time, the “Security
Agreement”) and the Guaranty, We shall have the right, but shall in no way be obligated, to bring suit in Our own name to enforce Your rights in the Intellectual Property Collateral. If We commence any such suit, You shall, at the Our
reasonable request, do all lawful acts and execute and deliver all proper documents or information that may be necessary or desirable to aid Us in such enforcement. You shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify Us for all of Our costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, related to Our exercise of the above mentioned rights after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. 

 

	4.	FURTHER ASSURANCES 

 You will from time to time execute, deliver and file, alone or with Us, any security
agreements, or other documents that We may reasonably request in writing to perfect Our Lien on the Intellectual Property Collateral. You will from time to time obtain any instruments or documents as We may reasonably request in writing, and take
all further action that may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions and purposes of this Agreement, the Security Agreement or the other Loan Documents to confirm, perfect, preserve and protect the Liens granted to Us under this
Agreement, the Security Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, You shall only be required to make filings at the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office
that are necessary to perfect Our security interest in and to Intellectual Property Collateral and shall not be required to take perfection steps, or make filings, in jurisdictions outside of the United States with respect to Intellectual Property
Collateral. 
  

	5.	MODIFICATION 

 This Agreement can only be altered, amended or modified in a writing signed by the
Parties. 
  

	6.	BINDING EFFECT; REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE 

 This Agreement shall be binding upon You and Your respective
successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Us, and Our nominees and assigns permitted under the Loan Agreement. 
 Our rights and remedies
with respect to the Liens granted hereby are in addition to those set forth in the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and those which are now or hereafter available to Us as a matter of law or equity. Each of Our rights, powers and
remedies provided for herein or in the Security Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity shall be cumulative and concurrent to every right, power or remedy provided for herein and the exercise by
Us of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Agreement, the Security Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, shall not preclude the simultaneous or later
exercise by any person, including Us, of any or all other rights, powers or remedies. 
  

	7.	GOVERNING LAW; COUNTERPARTS 

 This Agreement shall be deemed made and accepted in and shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, and (where applicable) the laws of the United States of America. 
 THIS AGREEMENT
SHALL BE SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS REGARDING CONSENT TO JURISDICTION AND VENUE, MUTUAL WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, AND JUDICIAL REFERENCE APPLICABLE TO THE LOAN AGREEMENT. 

  
 2 

	8.	TERMINATION 

 Upon the consummation of any sale of the Intellectual Property Collateral to any third
party pursuant to a transaction permitted by the Security Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Lien granted hereby with respect to the Intellectual Property Collateral shall automatically terminate (but shall attach to the proceeds or products
thereof to the extent such proceeds are part of the Intellectual Property Collateral or other Collateral) and We shall at the request and at the expense of You, provide evidence of such termination. Immediately upon the date that the Secured
Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification Secured Obligations) have been paid in full in Cash, (a) all of Your obligations under this Agreement, shall, without any other action, consent or notice, automatically terminate,
and (b) We shall deliver to You the Intellectual Property Collateral subject to this Agreement and all instruments of assignment executed in connection therewith, if any, free and clear of the Liens hereof and, except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, all of Your obligations (including, without limitation, the Secured Obligations) hereunder shall at such time automatically terminate. On and after the date that the Secured Obligations (other than unasserted contingent
indemnification Secured Obligations) are paid in full, We will promptly execute release or other documents and We will file or authorize the filing of appropriate termination statements or other documents to terminate and reasonably evidence
termination of such Lien, including UCC termination statements, releases for filing with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and/or U.S. Copyright Office and other documents, agreements and instruments as may be necessary or as You or We
may from time to time reasonably request in connection with the release of the Liens and claims granted. 
 This Agreement may be executed and delivered by
facsimile or transmitted electronically in either Tagged Image Format Files (“TIFF”) or Portable Document Format (“PDF”) and, upon such delivery, the facsimile, TIFF or PDF signature, as applicable, will be deemed
to have the same effect as if the original signature had been delivered by You to Us.
