Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On November 13, 2007, the registrant executed a Distiller’s Grains Marketing Agreement with Hawkeye Gold, LLC.  The Distiller's Grains Marketing Agreement establishes Hawkeye Gold, LLC as the registrant’s exclusive distillers grains marketing agent for an initial term of seven months, renewable for successive one year periods following the end of the initial term.  The Distiller's Grains Marketing Agreement provides that the registrant will pay Hawkeye Gold, LLC a marketing fee based on the sales prices for the registrant’s distillers grains or a fixed amount per ton of distillers grains sold by Hawkeye Gold, LLC as provided in the contract.  The Distiller's Grains Marketing Agreement renews for successive one year terms following the initial term, unless either party gives written notice of non-renewal 90 days prior to the expiration of any term.

On August 6, 2007, the registrant gave notice to its current distillers grains marketer, Commodity Specialists Company, that the registrant was terminating its distillers grains marketing agreement effective December 8, 2007.
