FIFTH AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT
This Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement (“Amendment”) is made and entered into effective the 30th day of June, 2008, by and between Siouxland Ethanol, LLC (hereinafter referred to as “Borrower”) and Farm Credit Services of America, FLCA and Farm Credit Services of America, PCA (hereinafter referred to as “Lender”) to amend and modify the Credit Agreement dated May 4, 2006 (hereinafter referred to as the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement and underlying Loan Documents are modified only to the extent necessary to give effect to the terms of this Amendment, and the remaining terms of said Loan Documents, not otherwise inconsistent herewith, are ratified by the parties. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the respective meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement.
In consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, and furthermore to induce Lender to consider financial accommodations for the Borrower under the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement, the parties hereby agree as follows:
The following sections are amended to read as follows:
Section 2.6.1 Voluntary Prepayments. Subject to the payment of any applicable prepayment fees or funding losses as provided herein, Borrower may prepay the Loan in full before its maturity or make additional principal payments on a term Loan in any amount on any Business Day, specifying the Loan upon which any prepayment is made. Such additional principal payment shall not, however, defer, postpone or alter the amount or due date of any scheduled payments required under this Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed, prepayments up to 180 days ahead of the scheduled installment date will be applied to principal installments in the order of their maturity and additional prepayments will be applied to principal installments in the inverse order of their maturity.
Section 7.11 Capital Spending. Borrower will not make Capital Expenditures during fiscal year 2008, from any source of funds available, in excess of $2,000,000.00 in the aggregate. For fiscal year 2009 and thereafter, Capital Expenditures are not to exceed $500,000.00 per year in the aggregate.
Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Lender that, after giving effect to this Amendment, (i) no Default or Event of Default exists under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and (ii) the representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof (except for those which expressly relate to an earlier date).
Borrower hereby ratifies the Credit Agreement as amended and acknowledges and reaffirms (i) that it is bound by all terms of the Credit Agreement applicable to it and (ii) that it is responsible for the observance and full performance of its respective obligations.
Borrower hereby certifies that the person(s) executing this Amendment on behalf of Borrower is/are duly authorized to execute such document on behalf of Borrower and that there have been no changes in the name, ownership, control, organizational documents, or legal status of the Borrower since the last application, loan, or loan servicing action; that all resolutions, powers and authorities remain in full force and effect, and that the information provided by Borrower is and remains true and correct.
This Amendment may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of executed counterparts of this Amendment by telecopy shall be effective as an original and shall constitute a representation that an original shall be delivered.
THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEBRASKA.
This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have set their hand effective the day and year first above written.
