Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On October 9, 2009, the Third Amendment to our Credit Agreement with Home Federal Savings Bank of Rochester, Minnesota became effective when Home Federal delivered to us an executed copy of the amendment. Pursuant to the Third Amendment to our Credit Agreement, Home Federal consented to our investment of up to $1,500,000 in Guardian Energy, LLC, an entity formed to purchase an ethanol plant that was formerly owned by VeraSun Energy. Further, we agreed in the amendment to terminate the deferral of principal payments which was approved by Home Federal in the Second Amendment to our Credit Agreement with Home Federal, which was executed in May 2009. We also agreed to repay all of the deferred principal payments at the time we executed the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement and to re-commence repayment of our expansion loan as if the previous deferral of principal payments had not occurred.

This current report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements. We undertake no responsibility to update any forward looking statement. When used, the words “believe”, “hope”, “expect”, “anticipate” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
