Under the agreement, POET Design and Construction will design and construct a solid waste fuel boiler system at the registrant’s plant site in Chancellor, South Dakota. The boiler system will produce steam through the processing of wood-based waste products, such as pallets. The steam generated from this process will partially replace the steam obtained from the registrant’s current sources for use in the registrant’s ethanol production process. POET Design and Construction is scheduled to begin construction of this system in the summer of 2007, with a scheduled completion date in the summer of 2008. The total cost of construction is estimated at $25.5 million, which is expected to be financed with new debt financing from the registrant’s existing lender, AgCountry Farm Credit Services. A copy of the agreement will be filed as an exhibit to registrant’s next periodic report.
