ANNEX A

WAIVER EXTENSIONS REQUESTED

1. Bloomingburg Permits

(A) Waiver Extension Request. Pursuant to (i) Section 6.01(k)(iii) (Conditions to First Construction Loan Borrowing - Governmental Approvals) of the Credit Agreement, it is required that, as a condition to the initial Borrowing, all Necessary Project Approvals (other than the Deferred Approvals) are in full force and effect, final and Non-Appealable; (ii) Section 6.05(b)(i) (Conditions to All Borrowings - Government Approvals) of the Credit Agreement, it is required that, as a condition to each Borrowing, all Governmental Approvals required by the proposed Borrowing Date for development of the Project are in full force and effect, final and Non-Appealable; (iii) Section 6.05(b)(v) (Conditions to All Borrowings - Government Approvals) of the Credit Agreement, it is required that, as a condition to each Borrowing, there is no proceeding pending or, to the Knowledge of any Borrower, threatened that seeks to rescind, terminate, modify, condition, suspend or otherwise alter in any material respect any Governmental Approval; and (iv) Section 6.05(g)(i) (Conditions to All Borrowings – No Litigation) of the Credit Agreement, it is required that, as a condition to each Borrowing, no action, suit, proceeding or investigation shall have been instituted or, to the Knowledge of any Borrower, threatened against any Borrower, ASA Biofuels, any Plant or the Project.

In the First Waiver Agreement the Borrowers acknowledged that such requirements would not be satisfied by the date of the initial Borrowing to the extent that they related to the Bloomingburg Air Permit and the Section 404 Permit (as each such term is defined in the First Waiver Agreement).

In the First Waiver Agreement the Borrowers consequently requested, and the Lenders granted, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the First Waiver Agreement, a temporary waiver of (I) the requirement that the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above (to the extent they relate to each of the Section 404 Permit and the Bloomingburg Air Permit) be satisfied on or before the date of the initial Borrowing and the date of any other Borrowing that occurred prior to November 30, 2006, and (II) the requirement that the conditions set forth in clauses (iii) and (iv) above (to the extent they related to the threatened appeals concerning the Bloomingburg Air Permit referred to under the heading “Temporary waiver re: “non-appealable” nature of the Issued Permit” in Section III of the Request Letter (as defined in the First Waiver Agreement) (which the Borrowers report in the Second Request Letter have been filed since the First Waiver Agreement) be satisfied on or before the date of the initial Borrowing for the Bloomingburg Construction Loans and the date of any other Borrowing that occurred prior to November 30, 2006.

Omnibus Agreement (Consent, Fourth Amendment and Second Waiver)

Annex A 1

The Borrowers hereby request an extension of the temporary waivers of the requirements described above in this clause 1(A) above until March 31, 2007 with respect to the Bloomingburg Appeals (as defined in the Second Request Letter).

(B) Borrowers’ Covenants; Effectiveness. (i) Each of the Borrowers hereby covenants and agrees that the requirements set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) of clause 1(A) above (to the extent each of them relates to the Bloomingburg Appeals and the permits that are the subject of such appeals) will be satisfied on or before March 31, 2007. If such requirements are not satisfied by March 31, 2007, no Borrowing may thereafter be requested with respect to the Bloomingburg Plant.

(ii) The effectiveness of the waiver extension relating to the requirements described in clauses (i) through (iv) of clause 1(A) above shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) March 31, 2007 and (ii) the date, if any, on which the Bloomingburg Appeals are determined in a manner that (1) terminates or suspends the effectiveness of any permit that is subject to the Bloomingburg Appeals, (2) has or would have an adverse impact on the financial condition or operations of Bloomingburg, or (3) could otherwise result in a Material Adverse Effect on Bloomingburg or the Bloomingburg Plant.

2. Albion Air Permit – Design-Build Emission Guarantees

(A) Waiver Extension Request. Pursuant to Section 6.02(i) (Conditions to First Borrowing for Each Plant – Air Permits) of the Credit Agreement, it is required that, prior to the initial Borrowing for the Albion Plant, the guarantee of the Design Builder with respect to air emissions set forth in the Albion Design Build Contract meet the requirements of the final air quality construction permit of the Albion Plant. In the First Waiver Agreement the Borrowers acknowledged that such requirement would not be satisfied by the date of the initial Borrowing for the Albion Plant. The Borrowers consequently requested, and the Lenders granted, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the First Waiver Agreement, a temporary waiver of the requirement that such condition be satisfied on or before the initial Borrowing Date, and the Borrowers covenanted and agreed that the requirement would be satisfied on or before November 30, 2006.

The Borrowers hereby request an extension of the temporary waiver described in this clause 2(A) until January 31, 2007.

Omnibus Agreement (Consent, Fourth Amendment and Second Waiver)

Annex A 2

(B) Borrowers’ Covenant; Effectiveness. (i) Each of the Borrowers hereby covenants and agrees that the requirement that the guarantee of the Design Builder with respect to air emissions set forth in the Albion Design Build Contract meet the requirements for the final air quality construction permit for the Albion Plant will be satisfied on or before January 31, 2007. If such requirement is not satisfied by such date, no Borrowing may thereafter be requested or made with respect to the Albion Plant.

(ii) The effectiveness of the waiver requested pursuant to clause 2(A) above shall terminate on January 31, 2007.

3. Linden Air Permit – Design-Build Emission Guarantees

(A) Waiver Extension Request. Pursuant to Section 6.02(i) (Conditions to First Borrowing for Each Plant – Air Permits) of the Credit Agreement, it is required that, prior to the initial Borrowing for the Linden Plant, the guarantee of the Design Builder with respect to air emissions set forth in the Linden Design Build Contract meet the requirements of the final air quality construction permit of the Linden Plant. In the First Waiver Agreement the Borrowers acknowledged that such requirement would not be satisfied by the date of the initial Borrowing for the Linden Plant. The Borrowers consequently requested, and the Lenders granted, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the First Waiver Agreement, a temporary waiver of the requirement that such condition be satisfied on or before the initial Borrowing Date, and the Borrowers covenanted and agreed that the requirement would be satisfied on or before November 30, 2006.

The Borrowers hereby request an extension of the temporary waiver described in this clause 3(A) until January 31, 2007.

(B) Borrowers’ Covenant; Effectiveness. (i) Each of the Borrowers hereby covenants and agrees that the requirement that the guarantee of the Design Builder with respect to air emissions set forth in the Linden Design Build Contract meet the requirements for the final air quality construction permit for the Linden Plant will be satisfied on or before January 31, 2007. If such requirement is not satisfied by such date, no Borrowing may thereafter be requested or made with respect to the Linden Plant.

Omnibus Agreement (Consent, Fourth Amendment and Second Waiver)

Annex A 3

(ii) The effectiveness of the waiver requested pursuant to clause 3(A) above shall terminate on January 31, 2007.

4. Preliminary Construction Documents – Heat and Material Balance Documentation

(A) Waiver Extension Request. Pursuant to Section 6.01(s)(i)(A) (Conditions to First Construction Loan Borrowing – Schedules) of the Credit Agreement, it is required that, as a condition to the initial Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall have received a copy of each Preliminary Construction Document (as defined in each Design Build Contract), each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each Lender and the Independent Engineer and certified by an Authorized Officer of the Borrowers’ Agent. In the First Waiver Agreement the Borrowers acknowledged that such Preliminary Construction Documents had not been provided to the Administrative Agent. The Borrowers consequently requested, and the Lenders granted, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the First Waiver Agreement, a temporary waiver of the requirement set forth in Section 6.01(s)(i)(A) of the Credit Agreement until November 30, 2006.

In the First Waiver Agreement the Borrowers covenanted and agreed, among other things, that, on or before November 30, 2006, the Independent Engineer would have full access (which it was understood could be at the Plant Sites, at the offices of the Design Builder, or at the offices of ICM) to complete copies of the “On-Site Documents” (as defined in the First Waiver Agreement), which included heat and material balance documentation, and that such On-Site Documents would be in form and substance satisfactory to the Independent Engineer.

The Borrowers acknowledge that, of the On-Site Documents, only the heat and material balance documentation has not been provided to the Administrative Agent (which has recently been received by the Borrower, but has not yet been provided to or reviewed by the Independent Engineer on-site). Consequently, the Borrowers hereby request an extension of the temporary waiver described in this clause 4(A) regarding provision of the heat and material balance documentation (i) with respect to the Albion Plant and Linden Plant, until January 31, 2007, and (ii) with respect to the Bloomingburg Plant, until January 31, 2007 to the extent the initial Borrowing of the Bloomingburg Construction Loans is made prior to such date.

(B) Borrowers’ Covenants. (i) Each of the Borrowers hereby covenants and agrees that (a) with respect to the Albion Plant and Linden Plant, on or before January 31, 2007 and (b) with respect to the Bloomingburg Plant, on January 31, 2007 to the extent the initial Borrowing of the Bloomingburg Construction Loans is made on or prior to such date, the Independent Engineer will have full access

Omnibus Agreement (Consent, Fourth Amendment and Second Waiver)

Annex A 4

(which may be at the Plant Sites, at the offices of the Design Builder, or at the offices of ICM) to complete copies of the heat and material balance documentation for such Plant, and such documentation shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Independent Engineer. If this condition is not satisfied (a) with respect to the Albion Plant and the Linden Plant, on or before January 31, 2007, and (b) with respect to the Bloomingburg Plant, on or before January 31, 2007 to the extent the initial Borrowing of the Bloomingburg Construction Loans is made on or prior to such date, and the Administrative Agent has not received written confirmation thereof from the Independent Engineer, no additional Borrowing with respect to any Plant for which such requirement has not been satisfied may be requested or made.

5. Linden Agreement for Water Services

(A) Waiver Extension Request. (i) Pursuant to Section 5.11(c) (Representations and Warranties - Transaction Documents and Other Documents; Representations and Warranties in Transaction Documents) of the Credit Agreement, it is required that each of the agreements set forth on Schedule 5.11-B be in full force and effect on or prior to the dates set forth for each such agreement on Schedule 5.11-B. In the First Waiver Agreement the Borrowers acknowledged that, with respect to the Linden agreement regarding water services, such requirement would not be satisfied on or prior to the relevant date specified on Schedule 5.11-B. The Borrowers consequently requested, and the Lenders agreed to grant, subject to the terms and conditions of the First Waiver Agreement, a temporary waiver of any Default or Event of Default arising out of or resulting from the failure to comply with the requirement set forth in Section 5.11(c) of the Credit Agreement, with respect to the Linden agreement regarding water services on or before November 30, 2006.

The Borrowers acknowledge that they have not yet entered into the Linden agreement regarding water services. Consequently, the Borrowers hereby request that the temporary waiver described in clause 5(A) be extended for the Linden agreement regarding water services until December 31, 2006.

(ii) As noted in clause (i) above, pursuant to Section 5.11(c) of the Credit Agreement, it is required that each of the agreements set forth on Schedule 5.11-B be in full force and effect on or prior to the dates set forth for each such agreement on Schedule 5.11-B. One of the agreements set forth in such schedule for the Linden Plant is the “Easement for well”, which is required to be executed within 240 days from the Linden Notice to Proceed. The Borrowers hereby request that the deadline for satisfying this requirement be extended for the Linden well easement until the date that is ninety (90) days from the date hereof.

Omnibus Agreement (Consent, Fourth Amendment and Second Waiver)

Annex A 5

The Borrowers report in the Second Request Letter that they are in the final stages of negotiating with the Town of Linden for the supply of water to the Linden Plant and that, rather than obtain an easement for a well, XXX Xxxxxx intends to acquire three parcels of real property to use as well sites to supply water to the Linden Plant (the “Well Sites”). Upon execution of the Linden agreement for water services with the Town of Linden, XXX Xxxxxx will transfer the Well Sites to the Town of Linden for the same price that XXX Xxxxxx acquired the Well Sites. (The plan outlined above, the “Linden Well Plan”) Consequently, the Borrowers hereby request that, upon completion of the actions described in this paragraph, the requirement in Section 5.11(c) of the Credit Agreement that each of the agreements set forth on Schedule 5.11-B be in full force and effect on or prior to the dates set forth for each such agreement on Schedule 5.11-B be deemed to be satisfied to the extent such requirement relates to the “Easement for well” identified in such schedule for the Linden Plant.

(iii) Paragraph (ii) of Section 7.01(o) (Affirmative Covenants – Preservation of Title; Acquisition of Additional Property) of the Credit Agreement requires that, prior to the acquisition or lease of any additional real property interests described in Section 7.01(o)(i) of the Credit Agreement, the Borrowers must deliver to the Administrative Agent an Environmental Site Assessment Report(s) with respect to such real property (if, in the reasonable determination of the Administrative Agent, acting in consultation with the Independent Engineer, such Environmental Site Assessment Report(s) with respect to such real property interests is warranted), in each case, along with a corresponding reliance letter from the consultant issuing such report(s), and each such environmental report shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Lenders.

In light of the Linden Well Plan, the Borrowers hereby request approval by the Required Lenders of the Environmental Site Assessment Reports for the Well Sites described in and attached to the Borrowers’ letter to the Administrative Agent dated October 13, 2006.

(iv) Section 7.02(f) (Negative Covenants – Asset Dispositions) of the Credit Agreement requires that, subject to certain exceptions, the Borrowers shall not sell, lease, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets. The Borrowers hereby request a waiver of such requirements to the extent that they would prohibit the Borrowers from completing the transfer of the Well Sites to the Town of Linden in connection with the Linden Well Plan.

(v) Section 6.03(d) (Conditions to All Construction Loan Borrowings – Updated Survey) of the Credit Agreement requires that if any Borrower acquires any land (leasehold, fee or easement) not shown on the then-current Survey, the Administrative Agent shall have received an updated Survey of the Sites

Annex A 6

including such new leasehold, fee or easement areas. In light of the Linden Well Plan, the Borrowers hereby request a waiver of such requirement to the extent that it would require Linden to deliver an updated Survey of the Site for the Linden Plant to reflect the Well Sites; provided, that the Borrowers transfer the Well Sites to the Town of Linden within ninety (90) days of this Omnibus Agreement.

(vi) Section 7.01(o)(i)(i) (Affirmative Covenants – Preservation of Title; Acquisition of Additional Property) of the Credit Agreement requires, among other things, that if any Borrower shall at any time acquire any real property or leasehold or other interest in real property, such Borrower shall promptly upon such acquisition, execute, deliver and record a supplement to the relevant Mortgage.

In light of the Linden Well Plan, the Borrowers hereby request a waiver of such requirement to the extent that it would require Linden to deliver a supplement to the Mortgage for the Linden Plant to reflect the Well Sites; provided, that the Borrowers transfer the Well Sites to the Town of Linden within ninety (90) days of this Omnibus Agreement.

(B) Borrowers’ Covenant; Effectiveness. (i) Each of the Borrowers hereby covenants and agrees that the Linden agreement regarding water services will be entered into on or before December 31, 2006. Each of the Borrowers hereby further agrees to complete the Linden Well Plan on or before December 31, 2006, it being understood that upon such completion the requirement of Section 5.11(c) of the Credit Agreement will be deemed to be satisfied to the extent it regards the “Easement for well” set forth in Schedule 5.11-B for the Linden Plant. If such requirements are not satisfied by such date, no Borrowing may thereafter be requested or made with respect to the Linden Plant.

(ii) The effectiveness of the waiver requested pursuant to clause (i) of 5(A) above shall terminate on December 31, 2006. The effectiveness of the waivers requested pursuant to clauses (ii), (v) and (vi) of 5(A) above shall terminate on the date that is ninety (90) days from the date hereof.

Pursuant to Sections 6.01(c)(i)(B) (Conditions to First Construction Loan Borrowing – Officer’s Certificates) and Section 6.05(a) (Conditions to All Borrowings - Borrowers’ Certifications) of the Credit Agreement, it is required that all of the representations and warranties made by the Borrowers in the Credit Agreement and Financing Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the relevant Borrowing Date. The Borrowers acknowledged in the First Waiver Agreement that such

Annex A 7

requirements would not be satisfied on the date of the initial Borrowing for each Plant, but only to the extent that they related to the representations and warranties made in (i) Section 5.03(a) (Governmental Approvals) of the Credit Agreement that all necessary Governmental Approvals are in full force and effect, final and Non-Appealable, (ii) Section 5.09 (Litigation) of the Credit Agreement that there is no pending or, to the Knowledge of any Borrower, threatened litigation, action, proceeding or labor controversy against or affecting any Borrower, any Plant, ASA Biofuels or the Project, and (iii) Section 5.11(c) (Transaction Documents and Other Documents; Representations and Warranties in Transaction Documents) of the Credit Agreement that all of the agreements set forth in Schedule 5.11-B are in full force and effect on or prior to the relevant dates set forth for each such agreement on Schedule 5.11-B, as each of the representations and warranties referred to in clauses (i) through (iii) above may relate to, and only to the extent of, the waived provisions.

The Borrowers consequently requested, and the Lenders granted, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the First Waiver Agreement, a temporary waiver of the requirement that such conditions be satisfied on or before the date of the initial Borrowing and the date of any other Borrowing that occurred prior to the termination of such waiver. The First Waiver Agreement provided that the temporary waiver would terminate with respect to each waived provision on the date that the First Waiver Agreement ceased to be effective with respect to such waived provision.

Consequently, the Borrowers hereby request an extension of the waiver of the requirement that such conditions be satisfied on or before the date of any other Borrowing that occurs prior to the termination of the Extension of each such Extended Waiver as provided in (B) below.

(B) Effectiveness. The waiver extension requested pursuant to clause 6(A) above shall cease to be effective with respect to each Extended Waiver on the date that the Extension of such Extended Waiver ceases to be effective.
