in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth hereafter.

          NOW THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the covenants and promises contained hereafter, it is
agreed:

          PREMISES Optionor hereby grants to Optionee the exclusive option to purchase real
estate located in Richland County, North Dakota, (the “Property”) more specifically described as
follows:

That part of the Southwest Quarter (SW 1/4) of Section Eighteen (18), Township One
Hundred Thirty (130) North, Range Forty-nine (49) West of the Fifth Principal Meridian
which consists of 25 acres and which lies north of and adjacent to the railroad right of
way which runs through said quarter. The exact parcel involved shall be surveyed so as
to describe a 25 acre tract that is contiguous to and runs all along said railroad line
through the entire quarter. All survey costs shall be paid by the Optionee.

     CONSIDERATION The price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Property shall be $125,000.00,
payable by Optionee as herein provided. As consideration for the option, Optionee agrees to pay to
Optionor at the time of the execution of this Agreement the sum of $1,000.00 (the “Option
Consideration”) with said payment to be credited to the Purchase Price at closing. The remaining
balance of the Purchase Price ($124,000.00) shall be paid in cash and at closing.

     TERM This Agreement shall commence on the date of the execution of this Agreement
and continue to the 5th day of September, 2006 at 5:00 o’clock P.M. Optionee shall have
the right to extend this option for an additional six (6) months upon payment to Optionor of the
sum of $500.00, which shall become a part of the Option Consideration. If not exercised timely,
this Agreement shall expire automatically and be null and void and the Option Consideration shall
be forfeited to the Optionor. If extended, the additional $500.00 shall be credited against the
Purchase Price at closing.

     NOTICE OF EXERCISE OF OPTION Optionee shall at any time during the option term notify
Optionor by registered mail, Federal Express delivery or hand delivery of its written demand that
Optionee intends to complete the purchase of the Property. The conveyance and closing for the
Property defined above shall thereupon be completed within 90 days thereafter in accordance with
the terms and conditions set forth hereafter.

     TERMS In the event this Option is exercised, Optionor agrees to sell and Optionee
agrees to purchase the Property, with improvements thereon, if any, under the following terms and
conditions:

	 	1.	 	Right to Enter Property and Due Diligence. Optionor agrees that Optionee
and/or third-parties directed by Optionee, shall have the right to enter upon the Property
at any time from the date of this agreement until closing in order to conduct due diligence
investigations upon the Property by giving Optionor one (1) day advanced written or verbal
notice. Any due diligence costs and work performed, including, but not limited to, surveys
and environmental studies conducted, shall be at the sole cost of the Optionee.
	 
	 	2.	 	Crop Damage. In the event that Optionee’s due diligence and/or conveyance of
the Property to Optionee shall occur after Optionor, or its tenants and/or agents, plants
crops, but before harvest of those crops, the parties hereto mutually agree that Optionor
shall have the right, upon notice to the Optionee and at the Optionee’s convenience, to
harvest any crops not destroyed by the Optionee in the process of its due diligence and/or
its construction of an ethanol plant and related improvements thereto. The Optionee shall
have no duty to preserve any of such crops, and the Optionor accepts as liquidated damages
(in lieu of any and all other damages) an amount equal to the most recent Richland County
USDA proven yield for the commodity planted on the Property in the year of damage
multiplied by the Richland County USDA four year average price for the commodity grown in
the year of damage, multiplied by the number of acres, or fractional acres, of crop
destroyed on the Property. If the parties cannot mutually agree upon the number of crop
acres damaged, the number of such cop acres damaged shall be measured by an independent
third-party as the parties hereto may mutually identify.
	 
	 	3.	 	Termination Of Tenants. Regardless of when or if Optionee provides notice of
the exercise of its option provided hereunder, in the event this option is exercised,
Optionor agrees to provide timely notice to any tenant of the Property of the termination
of such tenant’s tenancy. Such notice shall follow the form required for the termination
of farm tenancies under the applicable lease terms involved and/or North Dakota Law.

3

 

	 	4.	 	Title Examination. No later than 20 days from delivery of notice of exercise of
the option granted hereby or if the abstract company needs
additional time, the time for delivery of the abstract shall be
extended for a reasonable time based on the time required by the
abstract company to continue said abstract, the Optionor
shall furnish to the Optionee a duly certified Abstract
of Title to the Property, continued to a recent date, showing good and marketable title in
the Optionor, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, except as noted below. The
Optionee shall have 15 days time to examine said abstract of title and within said period
of time shall promptly notify the Optionor of all objections thereto in writing. If the
title to the Property is unmarketable, the Optionor shall have a period of 90 days in which
to correct the title and make it marketable. If the title to the Property cannot be made
marketable within said period of time or such further time as may be granted by the
Optionee, the Optionee shall be entitled to the return of the Option Consideration paid
under this Agreement, but otherwise this Agreement shall be wholly null, void and
unenforceable.
	 
	 	5.	 	Title, Liens and Encumbrances. At closing, Optionor shall transfer title to
Optionee by a Warranty Deed conveying good and marketable title to the Optionee. The sale

amount of the taxes and assessments for that year are not yet known, the amount to be
prorated shall be based on the real estate taxes and assessments for special improvements
for the previous year. Optionee agrees to pay the real estate taxes and assessments for
special improvements for all subsequent years.
	 
	 	7.	 	Closing and Possession. Possession is to be given immediately upon completion

event later than 90 days from the date of the notice of exercise of the option, or as
otherwise agreed upon by the parties.

responsible and the other party fails to fulfill its obligations hereunder and continues to
fail and refuses to fulfill its obligations hereunder for more than 30 days after receipt
