as of January  30,  2008 by  Southwest  Iowa  Renewable  Energy,  LLC, a limited
liability  company  organized and existing under the laws of Iowa (the "Owner"),
and Bunge North  America,  Inc., a corporation  organized and existing under the
laws of New York (the  "Bunge").  Owner and Bunge are  collectively  referred to
herein as the "Parties" and individually as a "Party."

                                   BACKGROUND

     A.   Owner is  currently  in the process of  constructing  certain  assets,
          facilities and equipment in Council Bluffs,  Iowa  (collectively,  the
          "Ethanol Facility") for the production of ethanol.

     B.   Owner desires to engage Bunge to provide certain  construction support
          services with respect to the  construction of the Ethanol  Facility on
          the terms and  conditions  set forth  herein,  and Bunge is willing to
          accept such engagement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set
forth herein,  and intending to be legally  bound,  the parties  hereby agree as
follows:

                                   ARTICLE I

         SUPPORT SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED BY BUNGE; OBLIGATIONS OF OWNER

hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the Services in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

     assistance to Owner with respect to construction of the Ethanol Facility;

Support  Services in accordance with applicable  federal,  state and local laws,
rules and regulations using commercially reasonable diligence and care.

     1.4 Independent  Contractor.  It is not the intent of the parties hereto to
create an agency relationship by this Agreement.  Bunge shall perform its duties
hereunder  as an  independent  contractor,  and not as a general  agent or joint
venturer.

     1.5 Responsibility of Owner; Direction from Owner.

          1.5.1 Owner  acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for
     the  construction,  operation,  maintenance,  and  security  of the Ethanol
     Facility. Owner further acknowledges and agrees that Bunge is providing the

     responsible  for  implementing  or  rejecting  any  suggestions  or  advice
     provided by Bunge as part of the Support Services.

          1.5.2 At any time at Bunge's  request to the Owner,  Bunge may require
     the Owner to provide  specific  direction or advice regarding any action to
     be taken or  omitted  by it.  Bunge  shall not be liable to the Owner  with
     respect  to any  action  or  inaction  which it takes  in  reliance  on any
     directions or advice received pursuant to this Section. However, nothing in
     this Section  shall be construed as imposing  upon Bunge any  obligation to
     seek such direction or advice.

     1.6 Items to be Furnished  by Owner.  Owner shall  furnish,  or cause to be
furnished,  to Bunge, at the Owner's expense,  such information,  documentation,
services and materials  which are  reasonably  requested by Bunge to perform the
Support Services, and to otherwise fulfill its obligations under this Agreement.
All such items shall be made  available  at such times and in such manner as may
be required by Bunge for the expeditious and orderly  performance of the Support
Services.

                                   ARTICLE II

                                  COMPENSATION

reimburse  Bunge for all  out-of-pocket  expenses  associated  with the  Support
Services and travel and meal costs for Bunge  personnel  performing  the Support
Services.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

     4.1 By Owner. Owner shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Bunge and its
Affiliates, and all of their respective officers, directors,  employees, agents,
partners,  members,  shareholders and representatives,  from and against any and
all  losses,  costs,  damages,  expenses,  obligations,  injuries,  liabilities,
insurance  deductibles and excesses,  claims,  proceedings,  actions,  causes of
action,  demands,  deficiencies,  lawsuits,  judgments or awards,  penalties and
interest,  including  reasonable  attorney's  fees,  arising  out of any act (or

other  party for any  obligation,  liability,  or  commitment  incurred by or on
behalf of the Owner,  its  officers or employees as a result of any such act (or
failure to act),  except to the extent  resulting  from its gross  negligence or
willful misconduct.

     4.2 Consequential   Damages.  In no event  shall  Bunge be  liable  for any
consequential,  incidental  or  specific  damages or any other  liabilities  not
expressly set forth herein, regardless of legal theory or negligence.

                                   ARTICLE V

                                  FORCE MAJEURE

     5.1  Definition  of  Force  Majeure  Event.  Each  Party  is  excused  from
performing  its  obligations  under  this  Agreement  to the  extent  that  such
performance is prevented by an act or event (a "Force Majeure Event") whether or
not foreseen,  that: (i) is beyond the reasonable  control of, and is not due to
the fault or negligence of, such Party,  and (ii) could not have been avoided by
such Party's exercise of due diligence,  including,  but not limited to, a labor
controversy,  strike, lockout,  boycott,  transportation  stoppage,  action of a
government,  court or public  authority,  fire, flood,  earthquake,  storm, war,
civil strife,  terrorist action,  epidemic, or act of God; provided that a Force
Majeure Event will not include economic hardship,  changes in market conditions,
or  insufficiency  of funds.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing  sentence,  a Force
Majeure  Event does not excuse any  obligation  to make any payment  required by
this Agreement.

     5.2  Conditions  Regarding  Force Majeure  Event.  A Party claiming a Force
Majeure Event must: (i) use commercially  reasonable efforts to cure,  mitigate,
or remedy the effects of its


                                       3

nonperformance;  provided that neither Party will have any obligation  hereunder
to settle a strike or labor dispute;  (ii) bear the burden of demonstrating  its
existence;  and (iii)  notify  the other  Party of the  occurrence  of the Force
Majeure Event as quickly as reasonably possible, but no later than five Business
Days after learning of the occurrence of the Force Majeure Event. Any Party that
fails to notify the other Party of the  occurrence  of a Force  Majeure Event as
required by this Section 5.4 will forfeit its right to excuse performance of its
obligations  due to such  Force  Majeure  Event.  When a Party  claiming a Force
Majeure  Event is able to  resume  performance  of its  obligations  under  this
Agreement,  it will  immediately  give the other Party notice to that effect and
resume performance.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                                    INSURANCE

     6.1 Automobile.  Owner will maintain automobile liability insurance against
claims for bodily  injury,  death and property  damage,  with limits of not less
than  $1,000,000  per  person  and not less  than  $1,000,000  per  accident  or
occurrence;  alternatively,  combined single limits of not less than $1,000,000.
Such  insurance  will name Bunge,  its parents,  subsidiaries  and Affiliates as
additional insureds thereunder.

     6.2 General  Liability.  Owner will maintain  commercial  general liability
insurance (including, without limitation, coverage for Contractual Liability and
Products/Completed  Operations)  against  claims  for bodily  injury,  death and
property  damage,  with limits of not less than  $5,000,000  in one  accident or
occurrence;  alternatively,  combined  single limits of not less than $5,000,000
each accident or occurrence,  $5,000,000 Products/Completed Operations aggregate
and $5,000,000 general  aggregate.  Such insurance will name Bunge, its parents,
subsidiaries and Affiliates as additional insureds thereunder.

     6.3 Waiver.  Owner waives all rights  against  Bunge and its  employees and
agents for all losses and damages  caused by,  arising out of or resulting  from
any of the  perils  or causes  of loss  covered  by the  policies  for  property
insurance applicable to the Ethanol Facility.

     6.4 Policy Requirements.  All insurance policies required by this Agreement
will  (a)  provide  coverage  on an  "occurrence"  basis;  (b)  provide  that no
cancellation,  will be effected  without  endeavoring to give the other Party at
least  thirty  days'  prior  written  notice;  and (c) be valid and  enforceable
policies issued by insurers of recognized  responsibility,  properly licensed in
the State of Iowa,  with an A.M.  Best's Rating of A- or better and Class VII or
better. Such insurance policies will not contain a cross-liability  exclusion or
an exclusion for punitive or exemplary  damages where insurable under law. Prior
to the  Effective  Date and,  thereafter,  within five business days of renewal,
certificates  of such  insurance  will  be  delivered  to the  other  Party,  as
appropriate, as evidence of the specified insurance coverage. The minimum limits
of coverage  required by this  Agreement  may be satisfied by a  combination  of
primary and excess or umbrella insurance policies; provided that any such excess
or umbrella  insurance  policies  follow the form of the primary  insurances and
contain a drop down provision in case of exhaustion of underlying  limits and/or
aggregates.
