Item 2.03.
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
On October 28, 2011, Buffalo Lake Energy, LLC and Pioneer Trail Energy, LLC which own and operate the Company's ethanol plants in Fairmont, Minnesota and Wood River, Nebraska, respectively, (the "Project Subsidiaries"), and each a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of BioFuel Energy LLC ("BFE Energy"), the Company's direct operating subsidiary, received funding in an aggregate amount of $4,296,857 under an operating lease (the "Operating Leases") each Project Subsidiary has entered into with Farnam Street Financial, Inc..  This funding will be used to pay for some of the costs of corn oil extraction systems ("COES") that each of the Project Subsidiaries is installing in its respective ethanol plant.
Under the terms of the Operating Leases, the Project Subsidiaries may draw up to an aggregate of $7,850,000 to fund installation of the two COES.  The remaining expense of installation will be borne by the Project Subsidiaries out of cash on hand.  Under the terms of the Operating Leases, monthly payments will commence upon completion of installation, which the Company expects to occur by the end of the fourth quarter, and will continue for two (2) years.  Upon expiration of the initial term, each of the Project Subsidiaries will have the option to either renew for a subsequent one (1) year term or purchase the COES at its then fair market value.  Each of the Operating Leases is unconditionally guaranteed by BFE Energy Corp. (referred to herein as the "Company").
The above description is only a summary of the material terms of the Operating Leases and does not purport to be complete.  You are advised to refer to the actual terms of the Operating Leases and accompanying Lease Schedules, which are attached to this report as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report for the full details of the terms thereof.
