EMPLOYEE EMAIL

August 26, 2010

Dear Colleagues:

I want to make you aware of recent announcements that have been made regarding our recapitalization plan and our upcoming annual meeting of shareholders to be held on September 23, 2010.

First, as you know, we recently announced a recapitalization plan designed to provide value for our shareholders and create a more efficient and lower cost capital structure for Casey’s. We reported today the positive shareholder response to this plan – that response underscores that the plan was successful on every level. As a result of the recapitalization, the Company expects, based on the preliminary count by the depositary for the offer, to acquire approximately 26% of the outstanding Casey’s shares at a purchase price of $38.00 per share. As we said when the plan was announced – this demonstrates that our Board of Directors believes Casey’s is undervalued by the markets at recent trading levels. We have great confidence in this business and the value we are cr eating together.

In addition, we recently filed our final proxy statement related to the nomination of our current Board for reelection at our upcoming annual meeting. Under our Board’s leadership, we have enhanced our position as a best-in-class operator, consistently outperformed our convenience-store peers, and returned significant value to shareholders. Given this track record of superb performance, we are urging our shareholders to vote for our highly qualified, experienced, incumbent Board of Director nominees.

As you know, to further its hostile takeover, Couche-Tard is attempting to replace our Board with its hand-picked nominees. To be clear, Couche-Tard’s nominees have one goal: a quick sale of our Company at a low price. We are encouraging shareholders – including employees who own stock independently or participate in our 401(k) plan – to reject Couche-Tard’s efforts by supporting the reelection of our Board. You can find more information about the annual meeting at www.supportcaseys.com. We encourage you to take a look. If you have any questions about how to vote your shares, call our proxy solicitor, MacKenzie Partners at 1-800-322-2885.

This is an important time in our Company’s history, and we remain as focused as ever on expanding our position as a convenience-store industry leader. We greatly appreciate your continued commitment and professionalism, enabling us to maintain our momentum.

As always, we will keep you updated on any significant developments in relation to our annual meeting and the hostile takeover attempt by Couche-Tard. If you receive any media or other outside inquiries regarding this situation, please direct them to Bill Walljasper at (515) 965-6505. Additionally, if you have a personal question please contact a member of executive management: Terry Handley, Bill Walljasper, Sam Billmeyer or Julie Jackowski as appropriate.

Best regards,

Robert Myers
