EXHIBIT 4.3

ESCROW AGREEMENT

     THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made this ___ day of                     , 2007, by and between Amaizing Energy Holding Company, LLC, an Iowa limited liability company (the “Company”), and                     ,                                         , as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

     WHEREAS, the Company proposes to offer a minimum of                      and a maximum of                      of its Membership Units (the “Units”) at a price of $                     per Unit, in minimum blocks of                                          Units in an offering (the “Offering”) conducted pursuant to a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) filed or to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and various states, including, without limitation, the states of Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, and South Dakota, and potentially pursuant to exemptions in other states;

     WHEREAS, the Company will allow investors in the Offering to deliver the purchase price of the subscribed Units in installments; and

     WHEREAS, the Company desires to comply with the requirements of federal and state securities laws and regulations, and desires to protect the investors in the Offering by providing, under the terms and conditions herein set forth, for the return to subscribers of the money which they may pay on account of purchases of Units in the Offering if the “Minimum Escrow Deposit” (as hereinafter defined) is not deposited with the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

     1. Acceptance of Appointment.                      hereby agrees to act as the Escrow Agent under this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to enforce any provision hereof requiring performance by any other party hereunder.

     2. Establishment of Escrow Account. An escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) is hereby established with the Escrow Agent for the benefit of the investors in the Offering. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the Escrow Account shall be created and maintained subject to the customary rules and regulations of the Escrow Agent pertaining to such accounts.

     3. Ownership of Escrow Account. Until such time as the funds deposited in the Escrow Account (the “Escrow Funds”) shall equal the Minimum Escrow Deposit (as hereinafter defined), the funds deposited in the Escrow Account by the Company shall not become the property of the Company or be subject to the debts of the Company or any other person, but shall be held by the Escrow Agent solely for the benefit of the investors who have subscribed for Units in the Offering.

     4. Deposit of Proceeds. All proceeds from subscriptions in the Offering shall be delivered by the Company to the Escrow Agent, within forty-eight hours of receipt, endorsed (if appropriate) to the order of the Escrow Agent, together with an appropriate written statement setting forth the name, address and social security number of each person subscribing for Units, the number of Units subscribed for, and the amount paid by each such subscriber. Any such proceeds deposited with the Escrow Agent in the form of uncollected checks shall be promptly presented by the Escrow Agent for collection through customary banking and clearing house facilities.

     5. Investment of Escrow Funds. The Escrow Funds shall be credited by the Escrow Agent and recorded in the Escrow Account. The Escrow Agent shall be permitted, and is hereby authorized and directed to deposit transfer, hold and invest all Escrow Funds, including principal and interest, in Federal Government Obligations or obligations issued and/or guaranteed as to principal and interest by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. Government or common funds or mutual funds which invest primarily in such obligations. Any interest received by Escrow Agent with respect to the Escrow Funds shall be paid pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

     6. Termination of Escrow. Unless sooner terminated pursuant to Section 7 below, this Agreement and the Escrow Account created hereunder shall terminate as of the date (the “Termination Date”), which is one year and one day following the date upon which the Securities and Exchange Commission authorizes the Offering (the “Offering Effective Date”); provided, however, that if prior to the Termination Date, the Company has accepted subscriptions for Units equal to the minimum offering amount, and the Company has advised the subscribers for those Units to remit to the Escrow Agent the balance of the purchase price, then the Escrow Account may continue beyond the Termination Date until all amounts payable by such subscribers have been paid and the conditions for releasing the Escrow Funds have been satisfied. In no event shall this date be later than three (3) months following the Termination Date.

     7. Disposition of Escrow Funds. The Escrow Agent shall have the following duties and obligations under this Agreement:

     A. The Escrow Agent shall send to the Company every seven (7) days a written itemized notice acknowledging the receipt and amount of the Escrow Funds.

     B. The Escrow Agent shall give the Company prompt written notice when the Escrow Funds, exclusive of interest, equal or exceed ten percent (10%) of the Minimum Escrow Deposit, which is defined below. Following receipt of such notice, the Company will advise the subscribers for Units to remit to the Escrow Agent the balance of the purchase price within thirty (30) days. The Escrow Agent shall give the Company prompt written notice when the Escrow Funds, exclusive of interest, equal or exceed the Minimum Escrow Deposit.

     C. At the time (and in the event) that: (a) the Escrow Funds, exclusive of interest, equal or exceed $40,000,000 (the “Minimum Escrow Deposit”); (b) the Escrow Agent shall have received written confirmation from the Company that the Company has affirmatively elected in writing to terminate this Agreement; (c) the Escrow Agent shall have provided to each state securities department in which the Company has registered its

securities, as communicated to the Escrow Agent by the Company, an affidavit stating that the requirements of this Subsection 7.C have been satisfied; and (d) in each state in which consent is required, the state securities commissioners have consented to release of the funds on deposit, then this Agreement shall terminate, and the Escrow Agent shall promptly disburse the Escrow Funds, including interest, to the Company to be used in accordance with the provisions set out in the Registration Statement. Upon completing such disbursement, the Escrow Agent shall be completely discharged and released of any and all further responsibilities hereunder.

     D. In the event the Escrow Funds do not equal or exceed the Minimum Escrow Deposit on or before the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent shall return to each of the subscribers in the Offering as promptly as possible after the Termination Date and on the basis of its records pertaining to the Escrow Account: (a) the sum which each subscriber initially paid on account of such subscriber’s subscription for Units, and (b) each subscriber’s portion of the total interest earned on the Escrow Account as of the Termination Date, (c) reduced by the transaction fees provided in Section 10 below. Computation of any subscriber’s share of the net interest earned on the Escrow Account will be a weighted average based on the ratio of such subscriber’s deposit in the Escrow Account to all such subscribers’ deposits therein, and upon the length of time that such deposit was held in the Escrow Account as compared to all such deposits. All computations with respect to each subscriber’s allocable share of net interest shall be made by the Escrow Agent, which determinations shall be final and conclusive. Any amount paid or payable to a subscriber pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to be the property of such subscriber, free and clear of any and all claims of the Company or its agents or creditors; and any further purchase obligation of such subscriber in connection with the Offering shall thereupon be deemed, ipso facto, to be cancelled without any further liability. At such time as the Escrow Agent shall have made all of the payments called for in this Section, the Escrow Agent shall be completely discharged and released of any and all further responsibilities hereunder, except that the Escrow Agent shall be required to prepare and issue an IRS Form 1099 to each subscriber.

     8. Agreement with Escrow Agent. To induce the Escrow Agent to act hereunder, it is agreed by the Company that:

     A. The Company will deliver a copy of the Registration Statement to the Escrow Agent upon notice of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s declaration of effectiveness. The Escrow Agent will have no responsibility to examine the Registration Statement with regard to the Escrow Account or otherwise.

     B. The sole duty of the Escrow Agent, other than as herein specified, shall be to receive the Escrow Funds and hold them subject to disbursement in accordance herewith. The Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to determine whether the Company is complying with the requirements of this Agreement in tendering to the Escrow Agent proceeds from sales of or subscriptions for Units. The Escrow Agent may conclusively rely upon and shall be protected in acting in reliance upon, any statement, certificate, notice, request, consent, order or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented

by the proper party or parties. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty or liability to verify any such statement, certificate, notice, request, consent, order or other document, and its sole responsibility shall be to act only as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall be under no obligation to institute or defend any action, suit or proceeding in connection with this Agreement unless first indemnified to its satisfaction. The Escrow Agent may consult counsel in respect of any question arising under this Agreement, and the Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted in good faith upon advice of such counsel.

     C. The Company hereby indemnifies and holds harmless the Escrow Agent from and against any and all loss, liability, cost, damage and expense, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees, which the Escrow Agent may suffer or incur by reason of any action, claim or proceeding brought against the Escrow Agent arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any transaction to which this Agreement relates, unless such action, claim or proceeding is the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Escrow Agent.

     9. Resignation and Removal of Escrow Agent; Successors. The Escrow Agent may resign upon thirty (30) days advance written notice to the Company. If a successor Escrow Agent is not appointed within the 30-day period following such notice, the Escrow Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction to name a successor Escrow Agent. Any commercial banking institution or trust company with which the Escrow Agent may merge or consolidate, and any commercial banking institution or trust company to which the Escrow Agent transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business shall be the successor Escrow Agent without further act.

     10. Fees and Expenses of Escrow Agent. The Company agrees to pay the Escrow Agent the fees specified in the Escrow Agent’s fee schedule attached hereto as EXHIBIT A, in the manner set forth therein, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing. The parties further agree that such fees shall be paid by the Company and not from interest on the Escrow Account or from the principal. The Company shall be solely responsible for the payment of such fees, and the Escrow Agent shall not seek payment of the fees from subscribers or apply any interest or principal deposited by subscribers in the Escrow Account against such fees. The fee agreed upon herein is intended as full consideration for the Escrow Agent’s services as contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event (a) the Escrow Agent renders any material service not contemplated in this Agreement, (b) any material controversy arises hereunder, or (c) the Escrow Agent is made a party to any litigation pertaining to this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, then the Escrow Agent shall be reasonably compensated for such extraordinary services and reimbursed for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, occasioned by any delay, controversy, litigation or event, and the same shall be recoverable from the Company, but not from the Escrow Account.
