Exhibit 10.1

Farm Credit Services of America

FOURTH AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

This Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement (“Amendment’) is made and entered into effective the
11th day of April, 2008, by and between Siouxland Ethanol, LLC (hereinafter referred to as
“Borrower”) and Farm Credit Services of America, FLCA and Farm Credit Services of America, PCA
(hereinafter referred to as “Lender”) to amend and modify the Credit Agreement, dated May 4, 2006,
as previously amended (hereinafter referred to as the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement
and underlying Loan Documents are modified only to the extent necessary to give effect to the terms
of this Amendment and the remaining terms of said Loan Documents, not otherwise inconsistent
herewith, are ratified by the parties. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein
have the respective meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement,

In consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, and
furthermore to induce Lender to consider financial accommodations for the Borrower under the terms
and provisions of the Credit Agreement, the parties hereby agree as follows:

	 	 	The following sections are added to Article 2:

	 	 	Section 2.7 Fixed Rate Conversions. The Borrower may from time to time, subject to the
limitations set forth below, elect to convert up to 75% of the then remaining principal
outstanding under Credit Facility A (the “Term Loan”) from the variable interest rate described
in the Credit Agreement to a fixed interest rate to be quoted by Lender in its sole discretion
in each instance and fixed as of the date of conversion (each amount thereof so converted, a
“Converted Amount”). Under this option, interest rates may be fixed on such Converted Amounts
and for such periods as Borrower shall elect, provided that: (i) the minimum fixed rate period
shall be 180 days; (ii) Converted Amounts may be fixed in increments of $500,000.00 or multiples
thereof; and (iii) the maximum number of Converted Amounts in place at any one time shall be
ten. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest rates may not be fixed for a period of time that
exceeds the then applicable maturity date for the Term Loan or would require Borrower to repay
any Converted Amount prior to the end of its respective fixed rate period in order to pay an
installment of the Term Loan as and when due. All elections provided for herein shall be made
electronically (if applicable), telephonically or in writing and must be received by Lender not
later than 12:00 Noon Borrower’s local time in order to be considered to have been received on
that day. Upon expiration of any fixed rate period for a Converted Amount, interest on such
Converted Amount shall automatically accrue at the variable rate option unless such Converted
Amount is repaid or fixed for an additional period in accordance with the terms hereof.

	 	 	Section 2.8 Broken Funding Surcharge. Notwithstanding any provision contained in the Credit
Agreement giving the Borrower the right to repay the Term Loan prior to the date it would
otherwise be due and payable, the Borrower agrees to provide three Business Days’ prior written
notice for any prepayment of any Converted Amount and that in the event it repays any Converted
Amount prior to the applicable maturity date or prior to the last day of the fixed rate period
applicable thereto (whether such payment is made voluntarily, as a result of an acceleration, or
otherwise), the Borrower will pay to Lender a surcharge in an amount equal to the excess, if
any, of (i) the present value of the aggregate remaining periodic principal and interest
payments due and allocable to such prepaid Converted Amount from the date of prepayment through
the fixed rate period of such Converted Amount using a discount rate equal to the yield to
maturity of the U.S. Treasury Note with a maturity date closest to the remaining fixed rate
period of such Converted Amount on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of the
prepayment over (ii) the Converted Amount, absent such prepayment.

Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Lender that after giving effect to this Amendment,
(i) no Default or Event of Default exists under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents and (ii) the representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all
material respects as of the date hereof (except for those which expressly relate to an earlier
date).

 

Borrower hereby ratifies the Credit Agreement as amended and acknowledges and reaffirms (i) that it
is bound by all terms of the Credit Agreement applicable to it and (ii) that it is responsible for
the observance and full performance of its respective obligations.

Borrower hereby certifies that the person(s) executing this Amendment on behalf of Borrower is/are
duly authorized to execute such document on behalf of Borrower and that there have been no changes
in the name, ownership, control, organizational documents, or legal status of the Borrower since
the last application, loan, or loan servicing action; that all resolutions, powers and authorities
remain in full force and effect and that the information provided by Borrower is and remains true
and correct.

This Amendment may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery
of executed counterparts of this Amendment by telecopy shall be effective as an original and shall
constitute a representation that an original shall be delivered.

THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE
STATE OF NEBRASKA.

This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have set their hand effective the day and year first above
written.

 

The Internal Revenue Service does not require your consent to any provision of this document other
than the following certification required to avoid backup withholding. Under penalties of perjury,
I/we certify that the Taxpayer Identification Number shown herein is correct and that I/we am/are
not subject to backup withholding either because I/we are exempt, have not been notified that I/we
are subject to backup withholding due to failure of reporting interest or dividends, or the
Internal Revenue Service has notified me/us that I/we am/are no longer subject to backup
withholding. I/we am/are a U.S. person (including U.S. resident alien):

the Issuer has any obligation to purchase or repay a like principal amount of the Fixed Rate Notes
(as defined in the Senior Secured Note Indenture) issued on March 25, 2004 under the Senior Secured
Note Indenture (together with premium in an amount equal to the amount of premium payable on the

3

 

March 25, 2004 under the Senior Secured Note Indenture plus (ii) after a “Permitted Finco
Reconstitution Transaction” (as defined in the Senior Secured Note Indenture) has occurred, but
prior to the subsequent occurrence of a “Permitted Finco Collapse Transaction” (as defined in the
Senior Secured Note Indenture), additional interest in the amount of 1.00% per annum (herein,
“Additional Interest”) plus (iii) in the event that any portion of this Series Z Bond is prepaid
prior to April 1, 2014, an amount equal to the sum of the loan finance fees of the Issuer from the
2004 refinancing of the Issuer’s predecessor company, Ispat Inland ULC, which are allocable to the
portion of this Series Z Bond so prepaid plus the amount of transaction costs incurred in respect
of any “Permitted Finco Collapse Transaction” (as defined in the Senior Secured Note
Indenture as in effect on December 31, 2007) or “Permitted Finco Reconstitution Transaction” (as

time of repayment, are unrecovered (i.e., unamortized), as shown on the books and records
of the Issuer; provided, however, that the Additional Interest payable under the foregoing clause

Finco Collapse Transaction has occurred. Such interest shall be payable on the same dates as
interest with respect to the Fixed Rate Notes is payable from time to time pursuant to the Senior
Secured Note Indenture (each such date hereinafter called an “interest payment date”), until
maturity of this Series Z Bond, or, if the Company shall default in the payment of principal due on
this Series Z Bond, until such principal and interest shall have been paid in full and the
Company’s obligations with respect thereto discharged as provided in the First Mortgage (as
hereinafter defined). The amount of interest and fees and types of charges and expenses payable
from time to time with respect to the Fixed Rate Notes under the Senior Secured Note Indenture, the

debts; provided, however, that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made by
check mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Bond
register.

     This bond is one of the Bonds of Series Z of an issue of registered bonds of the Company,
known as its First Mortgage Bonds and herein termed the “Bonds,” all issued and to be issued under,

part hereof or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof or of the indebtedness
represented hereby or of the First Mortgage, against any subscriber, incorporator, stockholder,
officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor
corporation, either directly or indirectly through the Company or any successor corporation,
whether by virtue of any statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any
assessment or otherwise, all such liability being by the acceptance hereof and as part of the
consideration for the issue hereof expressly waived and released and being likewise waived and
released by the terms of the First Mortgage.

     Except after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in
the Senior Secured Note Indenture), this Series Z Bond is nontransferable except to effect transfer

provided in the First Mortgage. A service charge will not be made for nay transfer or exchange of
Series Z Bonds, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or
other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

     The person in whose name this bond is registered shall be deemed and be regarded as the owner
hereof for all purposes.

     This bond shall not be entitled to any benefit under the First Mortgage and shall not become
valid or obligatory for any purpose, until it shall have been authenticated by the execution by the
Corporate Trustee under the First Mortgage of the certificate hereon endorsed.
