     WHEREAS, the Company and the Redeemed Parties are parties to the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Company, dated as of July 25, 2005 (the “LLC Agreement”);
     WHEREAS, each of the Redeemed Parties holds the units of membership interests in the Company set forth opposite such Redeemed Party’s name on Schedule A hereto (“Company Units”);
     WHEREAS, contemporaneously with this Agreement, the Company is entering into a Limited Liability Company Agreement (“CA II LLC Agreement”) with Coffeyville Acquisition II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“CA II”), pursuant to which the Company is contributing 50% of its assets in consideration of the issuance by CA II to the Company of 100% of the membership interests in CA II (the “Contribution”);
     WHEREAS, in connection with the Contribution, the parties hereto desire that the Company purchase and redeem the number and type of Company Units set forth opposite each Redeemed Party’s name on Schedule B hereto (the “Redeemed Units”) in exchange for the number and type of units of membership interests in CA II set forth opposite such Redeemed Party’s name on Schedule C hereto (“CA II Units”);
     WHEREAS, the redemption shall be treated as a division of the Company within the meaning of section 1.708-1(d) of the Regulations of the Treasury Department of the United States issued pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, with neither the Company nor CA II treated as a continuing partnership; and
