This letter, together with the attached Schedule(s), Exhibit and General Terms and Conditions, sets forth the agreement (“Agreement”) between AP Services, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (“APS”), and VeraSun Energy Corporation (“VeraSun” or the “Company”) for the engagement of APS to provide certain temporary employees to the Company to assist it in its restructuring as described below.

All defined terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in this letter and in the attached Schedule(s), Exhibit and General Terms and Conditions.

Generally, the engagement of APS, including any APS employees who serve in Executive Officer positions, shall be under the supervision of the Board of Directors of the Company and the direct supervision of its Chief Executive Officer.

OBJECTIVE AND TASKS

APS will provide Mr. James Bonsall to serve as the Company’s Chief Restructuring Officer, reporting to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Working collaboratively with the senior management team, the Board of Directors and other Company professionals, Mr. Bonsall will assist the Company in evaluating and implementing strategic and tactical options through the restructuring process. In addition to the ordinary course duties of Chief Restructuring Officer, the Temporary Staff (as defined below) roles will include working with the Company and its team to do the following:

• Assist the Company’s management with the development of the Company’s business plan, and such other related forecasts as may be required by the bank lenders in connection with negotiations or by the Company for other corporate purposes.

• Assist in managing the “working group” professionals who are assisting the Company in the reorganization process or who are working for the Company’s various stakeholders to improve coordination of their effort and individual work product to be consistent with the Company’s overall restructuring goals.

• Assist with providing testimony before the Bankruptcy Court on matters that are within our areas of expertise, as necessary.

• Assist with financing issues during the bankruptcy.

• Assist in communication, presenting information and/or negotiation with outside constituents including the banks, their advisors and committees appointed by the Bankruptcy Court and the Bankruptcy Court itself.

• Assist with the preparation of the statement of affairs, schedules and other regular reports required by the Bankruptcy Court or which are customarily issued by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.

• Assist as requested in tasks such as reconciling, managing and negotiating claims, determining preferences and collection of same, document management, preservation of electronic data and the like.

• Assist the Company and its counsel in confirmation of any plan of reorganization filed in these Chapter 11 cases.

• Assist with such other matters as may be requested that fall within APS’ expertise and that are mutually agreeable.

STAFFING

APS will provide the Company with the individuals set forth on Exhibit A (“Temporary Staff”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, with the titles, pay rates and other descriptions set forth therein.

The Temporary Staff may be assisted by or replaced by other professionals at various levels, as required, who shall also become Temporary Staff. APS will keep the Company informed as to APS’ staffing and will not add additional Temporary Staff to the

assignment without first consulting with the Company to obtain Company concurrence that such additional resources are required and do not duplicate the activities of other employees or professionals.

If APS finds it desirable to augment its professional staff with independent contractors (an “I/C”) in this case, (i) APS will file, and require the I/C to file, 2014 affidavits indicating that the I/C has reviewed the list of the interested parties in this case, disclosing the I/C’s relationships, if any, with the interested parties and indicating that the I/C is disinterested; (ii) the I/C must remain disinterested during the time that APS is involved in providing services on behalf of the Company; and (iii) the I/C must represent that he/she will not work for the Company or other parties in interest in this case during the time APS is involved in providing services to the Company.

APS’ standard practice is to charge for an I/C’s services at the APS rate for a professional of comparable skill and experience, which rate typically exceeds the compensation provided by APS to such I/C.

TIMING, FEES AND RETAINER

APS will commence this engagement on or about November 3, 2008 after receipt of a copy of the Agreement executed by the Company.

The Company shall compensate APS for its services, and reimburse APS for expenses, as set forth on Schedule 1.

*     *     *

The Company will promptly apply to the Bankruptcy Court to obtain approval of APS’ retention and Retainer nunc pro tunc to the date of filing.

If these terms meet with your approval, please sign and return the enclosed copy of the Agreement and wire transfer the amount to establish the Retainer.

SCHEDULE 1

FEES AND EXPENSES

1. Fees: APS’ fees will be based on the hours worked by APS personnel at APS’ hourly rates, which are:

Managing Directors	$ 650-850
Directors	$ 485-650
Vice Presidents	$ 335-480
Associates	$ 250-340

APS reviews and revises its billing rates on January 1 of each year.

2. Success Fee: In addition to hourly fees, APS will be compensated for its efforts by the payment of a Success Fee. The Company understands and acknowledges that the Success Fee is an integral part of APS’ compensation for the engagement.

A contingent success fee of $3,500,000 if the Company (i) confirms a Plan of Reorganization that becomes effective; or, (ii) completes one or more transactions that substantially transfers a significant portion (i.e., more than 50% of the pro forma revenues or operating assets) of the business as a going concern to another entity that becomes effective or is consummated within 18 months of the date of this letter. Beginning in the 19^th month after the date of this letter, the contingent success fee shall be reduced at the rate of $100,000 per month until its amount shall be $2,500,000, after which point it shall not be further reduced. In determining the amount of the contingent success fee payable to APS, the Company may reduce the full amount of the retainer against such contingent success fee.

If the Company’s bankruptcy case shall be converted to a Chapter 7 liquidation, then the contingent success fee above shall not be payable; provided, however, the Company agrees that if a transaction(s) described in (ii) above occurs, then APS shall be entitled to a contingent success fee pursuant to the foregoing paragraph even if the Company’s remaining estate shall become a Chapter 7 liquidation.

3. Expenses: In addition to the fees set forth herein, the Company shall pay directly, or reimburse APS upon receipt of periodic billings, for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with this assignment, such as travel, lodging, postage and telephone and facsimile charges.

5. Retainer: APS does not seek a Retainer in connection with this engagement.

6. Billings. APS shall invoice $200,000 at the beginning of each week. The Company shall pay the amount invoiced on same day the invoice is presented by APS.

Such true-up will be applied to the following week’s invoice resulting in an increase or decrease to such invoice. In the event of staffing changes the amount of the weekly invoice can be changed by mutual agreement of APS and the Company.

APS and the Temporary Staff may make reasonable disclosures of Information to third parties in connection with the performance of APS’ obligations and assignments hereunder. In addition, APS will have the right to disclose to prospective clients on an individual basis (e.g., not as part of any marketing materials or a general solicitation) only that it provided services to the Company, but shall not provide any other information about its involvement with the Company.

The Company acknowledges that all information (written or oral), including advice and Work Product (as defined in Section 5), generated by APS and the Temporary Staff in connection with this engagement is intended solely for the benefit and use of the Company (limited to its management and its Board of Directors) in connection with the transactions to which it relates.

The Company shall pay damages and expenses as incurred, including reasonable legal fees and disbursements of counsel and the costs of APS’ professional time (APS’ professional time will be reimbursed at APS’ rates in effect

GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

when such future time is required), relating to or arising out of the engagement, including any legal proceeding in which an indemnitee may be required or agree to participate but in which it is not a party. The indemnitees may, but are not required to, engage a single firm of separate counsel of their choice in connection with any of the matters to which this indemnification agreement relates.

The Company shall use its best efforts to specifically include and cover, as a benefit for their protection, Temporary Staff serving as directors or officers of the Company or affiliates from time to time with direct coverage as named insureds under the Company’s policy for directors’ and officers’ (“D&O”) insurance. The Company will maintain such D&O insurance coverage for the period through which claims can be made against such persons. The Company disclaims a right to distribution from the D&O insurance coverage with respect to such persons. In the event that the Company is unable to include Temporary Staff under the Company’s policy or does not have first dollar coverage acceptable to APS in effect for at least $10 million (e.g., such policy is not reserved based on actions that have been or are expected to be filed against officers and directors alleging prior acts that may give rise to a claim), APS may, at its option, attempt to purchase a separate D&O policy that will cover the Temporary Staff only. The cost of same shall be invoiced to the Company as an out -of -pocket cash expense. If APS is unable to purchase such D&O insurance, then APS reserves the right to terminate the Agreement.

APS is not responsible for any third-party products or services. The Company’s sole and exclusive rights and remedies with respect to any third party products or services are against the third-party vendor and not against APS, whether or not APS is instrumental in procuring the third-party product or service.

APS shall not be liable to the Company except for actual damages resulting from bad faith, self-dealing or intentional misconduct.

Section 8. Governing Law and Arbitration

The Agreement is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan with respect to contracts made and to be performed entirely therein and without regard to choice of law or principles thereof.

Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Agreement, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration. Each party shall appoint one non-neutral arbitrator. The two party arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator. If within 30 days after their appointment the two party arbitrators do not select a third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be selected by the American Arbitration Association (AAA). The arbitration shall be conducted in Southfield, Michigan under the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules, and the arbitrators shall issue a reasoned award. The arbitrators may award costs and attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. However, in the event the Company is under the protection of the Bankruptcy Code, the arbitration provisions shall apply only to the extent that the Bankruptcy Court, or the U.S. District Court if the reference is withdrawn, does not retain jurisdiction over a controversy or claim.

Section 9. Termination and Survival

The Agreement may be terminated at any time by written notice by one party to the other; provided, however, that notwithstanding such termination APS will be entitled to any fees and expenses due under the provisions of the Agreement, including Success Fee and Break Fee in accordance with Schedule 1. Such payment obligation shall inure to the benefit of any successor or assignee of APS.

Additionally, unless the Agreement is terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined below) or due to circumstances described in the Success Fee provision in the Agreement, APS shall remain entitled to the Success Fee(s) that otherwise would be payable for the greater of 12 months from the date of termination or the period of time that that has elapsed from the date of the Agreement to the date of termination. Cause shall mean:

(a) a Temporary Staff member acting on behalf of the Company is convicted of a felony, or

(b) it is determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company after 30 days notice and opportunity to cure, that either (i) a Temporary Staff member is engaging in misconduct injurious to the Company, or (ii) a Temporary Staff member is breaching any of his or her material obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) a Temporary Staff member is willfully disobeying a lawful direction of the Board of Directors or senior management of the Company.

Sections 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9 and 10 of these Terms, the provisions of Schedule 2 and the obligation to pay accrued fees and expenses shall survive the expiration or termination of the Agreement.

Section 10. General
