WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the parties have, by negotiation and collective bargaining, reached complete agreement on wages, hours of work, working conditions and other related, negotiable subjects to be incorporated into a new Labor Agreement which shall supersede all previous verbal or written agreements applicable to the employees in the bargaining unit defined herein, which may have existed between the predecessor of the Employer and the Union.

WHEREAS, the Employer and organized labor both clearly recognize the responsibilities that both have to each other and the need for a close and continued friendly relationship between them, and because they further recognize that such relationship will result in mutual benefits by giving effective service in the interest of the Employer and creating improved labor standards for the members of the Union; consequently, this Agreement is entered into with good will and understanding.

WHEREAS, the Employer and the Union agree to do everything in their power to obtain maximum productivity on the part of individual employees within the limits of safety and good health. The Employer and the Union agree that the economic condition of the Employer and the industry necessitate an increased militance against waste and inefficiency and the parties pledge that unnecessary overtime for calls to work outside of duty hours are to be avoided wherever practicable.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the execution of this Agreement and the full and faithful performance of the covenants, representations and warranties contained herein, it is mutually agreed as follows:

Article 1 — Recognition

1.01 Recognition. The Employer agrees to recognize the Union as the exclusive bargaining representative for the Employer’s employees at its establishment in Coffeyville, Kansas, working under the Union’s jurisdiction and working in those job classifications listed in Exhibit 1 attached hereto and made a part of this Agreement. The Employer and the Union agree that all full time employees working in classifications listed in Exhibit 1 are properly within the bargaining unit and that the term “employee” as used in this Agreement refers to employees of the Employer working in such classifications. The parties specifically agree that nothing herein

- 1 -

shall be construed to extend recognition to persons employed part time or temporarily by the Employer in any other job classification or at any other locations, or any subsequently acquired property not represented by the Union.

1.02 Gender. In this Agreement, whenever the context so requires, the masculine gender includes the feminine.

Article 2 — Binding Effect of Agreement

2.01 Binding Effect of Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties’ signatory hereto. In the event that the Employer’s business is sold, assigned or transferred, the parties shall have all rights and obligations conferred by law.

Article 3 — Union Representatives

3.01 Shop Stewards. The Employer recognizes the right of the Union to appoint Shop Stewards. Such Shop Stewards shall function at the direction of the Union. Shop Stewards shall conduct their business as expeditiously as possible, will not interfere with the Employer’s business, and shall not conduct their Union business during work time, unless approved in advance by the Employer. Such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

3.02 Compensation. The Company shall pay one shop xxxxxxx or one appropriate union representative in the absence of the xxxxxxx at his regularly hourly rate for time spent representing employees in grievance-related meetings, in contract negotiations (up to a maximum of 24 hours) and any other joint Union-Company conferences. Such time will not be considered time worked for purposes of overtime.

Article 4 — No Strikes

4.01 No Strikes or Lockouts; Continuity of Operation. During the existence of this Agreement, there shall be no lockouts or strikes, including sympathy strikes, picketing, work stoppages, slowdowns or disruptive activity by the Union or by any employee. It is specifically understood and agreed that a work stoppage or disruption of work or slowdown occasioned by the honoring of another union’s (whether or not affiliated or associated with the Union) picket line shall constitute a forbidden work stoppage under this Article.

Any and all Employees who violate any of the provisions of this Article may be discharged or otherwise disciplined by the Company.

Upon expiration of the Agreement and because of the nature of the refining business, need for safety in the community, and desirability of orderly turnover of the refinery there shall be no strike or lockout until after a lapse of a period of not less than 72 hours following a notice of strike or lockout from the party giving such notice to the other party and that this Article 4 shall be considered as in full force until expiration of such period of 72 hours.

6.02 Rules. Except as specifically modified in this Agreement, all rules, policies and obligations, which the Employer may promulgate in the future, shall be applicable to the Employees covered by the terms of this Agreement.

6.03 Contracting Out. Contracting out decisions will be made by Management based on cost, quality, emergency situations, required equipment or any other criteria deemed relevant by Management. The Union has the right to present alternative suggestions, with justifications, that could result in additional review of Management’s decision. Such suggestions will not diminish in any way Management’s right to make and implement contracting out decisions.

Article 7 — Employment Procedure

- 3 -

7.02 Probationary Period: An Employee shall be on probation until he has completed one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days of employment. The period of probation shall be extended by the number of days the Employee is absent from scheduled work while on probationary status. A probationary employee may be terminated, with or without just cause, at the discretion of the Employer, and such termination shall not be subject to the dispute resolution provisions of this Agreement.

7.03 Job Vacancies. For one (1) year following the date of execution of this Agreement, when a permanent vacancy exists in a bargaining unit position, which the Employer chooses to fill with an outside applicant, the Employer shall notify the former Farmland Industries, Inc. Employees not hired by the Employer of the vacancy, and they will be given the first opportunity to apply for any such vacancy. The Employer shall inform the former Farmland Employees of the vacancy by sending a notice by first class mail to the former Farmland Employees at their last known address. However, nothing contained in this Article shall be interpreted to guarantee that any former Farmland employee will be selected to fill any such vacancy. Rather, the Employer retains sole discretion to determine who will fill any and all job vacancies.

Article 8 — No Discrimination

8.01 No Discrimination. The Employer is committed to the recruitment, development, training, recognition and promotion of Employees on the basis of their ability and attitude, without regard to gender, race, color, creed, nationality, age, religion, union affiliation, ancestry, veteran status, pregnancy, disability, or any other legally protected status under local, state or federal law.

To the extent deemed appropriate in its sole discretion, the Employer shall follow a system of progressive discipline. The parties agree that progressive discipline normally requires, prior to suspension or discharge, that an Employee be given a verbal warning and then a

- 4 -

written opportunity to correct the deficiency, but that with the principle of progressive discipline, the Employer may impose immediate suspension or discharge for dishonesty, incompetence, misconduct, insubordination, failure to report to work without just cause, walking off the job during a shift, or drinking alcohol or use of controlled substance, or being under the influence thereof, during the Employee’s shift.

9.02 Final Written Warning. An Employee may be placed on “final written warning” status for up to one (1) month at any time when his performance has deteriorated to the extent that his supervisor believes, and the Employer’s Human Resources Director agrees, that it is necessary to impress upon him the significance of poor performance and the need for improvement. The Employer shall advise the Employee and the Union of his deficiencies and the areas where improvement is required with specificity. The Employer shall advise the Union that the Employee has been placed on final written warning status within 24 hours of being placed on such status. An Employee who improves satisfactorily during this period may be restored to regular status. Failure to improve performance during this period may result in termination or transfer to another job more suited to the Employee’s capabilities. Deficiencies in work performance should be documented and placed in the Employee’s file. Regular Employees who have been placed on final written warning status are eligible for normal benefit accrual but may not take any vacation days during that period.

The Employer may grant or deny the Employee’s request. If the Employer denies the Employee’s request, the Employee shall have the option of continuing the interview without the presence of a Union representative, or discontinuing the interview. If the Employee’s request is granted, the Union representative shall be summoned by the Employer and allowed to be present during the investigatory interview. The interview shall be scheduled for a date and time acceptable to the Employer and the Union. The Employer may proceed with the interview without the presence of a Union representative, if the Union representative is unavailable for 36 consecutive hours following notification. In that event, the Employee may decide whether he desires to participate in the interview without the presence of a Union representative. This provision shall not apply to the application of the drug and alcohol policy.

Fifteen (15) to twenty (20) years of service		Three (3) weeks
Over twenty (20) years of service		Four (4) weeks

For example, PTO can be used for sick days, religious holidays and personal emergencies. All employees are allotted five (5) PTO days each calendar year and may be used in no less than hourly increments.

STEP 1:		Matters for discussion must first be orally submitted to the employee’s immediate supervisor. Such a meeting shall normally include the employee, the local union or unit representative, and the xxxxxxx and shall be held within five (5) working days of the time that the aggrieved party has knowledge of the grievance.

Such an appeal must be submitted in writing to the Employee’s department head within five (5) business days after receipt of the Company’s answer in Step 1, or within five (5) business days of the time when such answer would have been due. The grievance shall state the provision or provisions of this Agreement, which are alleged to have been violated, the relief requested, and the basis upon which the grievant believes the grievance was improperly denied at the previous step in the grievance procedure.

If no settlement of the grievance is reached, the executive committee’s representative shall provide a written answer to the grievant and the Union within ten (10) business days following receipt of the Step 3 grievance.

STEP 4:		If the grievance is not settled at Step 3 and the Union desires to appeal, the Union may refer the grievance to arbitration, as described below, within ten (10) business days of receipt of the Company’s written answer as provided to the Union at Step 3:

	(a)		The parties shall attempt to agree upon an arbitrator within five (5) business days after receipt of the notice of referral. In the event the parties are unable to agree upon the arbitrator within said five (5) business day period, the parties shall jointly request the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service to submit a panel of five (5) arbitrators. Each party retains the right to reject one (1) panel in its entirety and request that a new panel be submitted.

This decision shall be final and binding on the Company, the grievant, the Employees covered by this Agreement, and the Union.

	(e)		More than one grievance may be submitted to the same arbitrator if both parties mutually agree in writing.

	(f)		The fees and expenses of the arbitrator and the cost of a written transcript, if any, shall be divided equally between the Company and the Union; provided, however, that each party shall be responsible for compensating its own representative and witnesses.

- 15 -

	(g)		The arbitrator shall have no power to add to, subtract from, amend, change or alter any of the terms of this Agreement.

	(h)		Any Employee covered by this Agreement who is discharged by the Employer and who disputes that his/her discharge was for just cause shall have an affirmative duty to mitigate any potential damages which might result to the Employer, in the event the discharge involved is subject to Grievance and Arbitration, and an arbitrator overrules the discharge. In any dispute over the amount of back pay due to an Employee under an arbitration award, the arbitrator shall have no authority to award any back pay to that Employee unless that Employee or the Union has affirmatively proven by a preponderance of the evidence that the Employee has fulfilled his/her duty to mitigate damages at all times since his/her discharge.
