<p style='margin-top:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:0in;text-indent:.5in;font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman";'>In March, 2010, U.S. Premium Beef, LLC informed its
unitholders that, effective as of the close of business on March 27, 2010,
Class A Units and Class B Units would be &#147;de-linked,&#148; allowing transfers of
each class of units without a concurrent transfer of a unit of the other
Class.&nbsp; The Company also described the internet-based trading system, operated
by Variable Investment Advisors, Inc. under the name of AgStockTrade.com,
through which transactions involving Class A and Class B Units can be
effected.&nbsp; The system is intended to provide a convenient and efficient way for
buyers and sellers of USPB Class A Units and Class B Units to conduct
transactions.&nbsp; </p>

<p style='margin-top:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:0in;text-indent:.5in;font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman";'>The internet-based trading system is now in operation and it
is possible that members of the Company&#146;s Board of Directors may elect to
purchase or sell USPB Class A or Class B Units through AgStockTrade.com.&nbsp; In
light of the possible impact of trading in Units by members of the Board of
Directors, the Company believes it appropriate to inform prospective users of
the AgStockTrade.com system of policy limitations on participation in the
trading system by members of the Board of Directors.&nbsp; Under the Company&#146;s
&#147;Securities Trading Policy for Associated Persons&#148;, USPB directors, officers,
management personnel and certain affiliated parties (the &#147;Associated Persons&#148;)
may buy and sell USPB Units only during certain time periods each year.&nbsp; In
particular, Associated Persons may buy or sell Company securities only during
the four periods of time beginning one full business day after the Company has
published its financial results of operations for an applicable fiscal quarter
and ending 30 days later.&nbsp; However,&nbsp; from time to time and based on events
determined to be material&nbsp; by the Company&#146;s Board of Directors, the Board of
Directors may establish &#147;blackout&#148; periods during which Associated Persons may
not purchase or sell the Company&#146;s securities, even during the four periods
described above when such purchases or sales could normally occur.&nbsp; In
addition, from time to time, an Associated Person may determine that he or she
is personally in possession of material non-public information and that
purchases or sales of Company securities should not occur.&nbsp; As a result, due to
the Company&#146;s Securities Trading Policy, there may be extended periods of time
each year when members of the Company&#146;s Board of Directors, officers and
management team (and certain affiliated parties) cannot participate in the
purchase or sale of USPB Class A or Class B Units.&nbsp;&nbsp; A copy of the U.S. Premium
Beef, LLC Securities Trading Policy for Associated Persons is attached as

Item 8.01.  Other Events.
In March, 2010, U.S. Premium Beef, LLC informed its
unitholders that, effective as of the close of business on March 27, 2010,
Class A Units and Class B Units would be "de-linked," allowing transfers of
each class of units without a concurrent transfer of a unit of the other
Class.  The Company also described the internet-based trading system, operated
by Variable Investment Advisors, Inc. under the name of AgStockTrade.com,
through which transactions involving Class A and Class B Units can be
effected.  The system is intended to provide a convenient and efficient way for
buyers and sellers of USPB Class A Units and Class B Units to conduct
transactions.
The internet-based trading system is now in operation and it
is possible that members of the Company's Board of Directors may elect to
purchase or sell USPB Class A or Class B Units through AgStockTrade.com.  In
light of the possible impact of trading in Units by members of the Board of
Directors, the Company believes it appropriate to inform prospective users of
the AgStockTrade.com system of policy limitations on participation in the
trading system by members of the Board of Directors.  Under the Company's
"Securities Trading Policy for Associated Persons", USPB directors, officers,
management personnel and certain affiliated parties (the "Associated Persons")
may buy and sell USPB Units only during certain time periods each year.  In
particular, Associated Persons may buy or sell Company securities only during
the four periods of time beginning one full business day after the Company has
published its financial results of operations for an applicable fiscal quarter
and ending 30 days later.  However,  from time to time and based on events
determined to be material  by the Company's Board of Directors, the Board of
Directors may establish "blackout" periods during which Associated Persons may
not purchase or sell the Company's securities, even during the four periods
described above when such purchases or sales could normally occur.  In
addition, from time to time, an Associated Person may determine that he or she
is personally in possession of material non-public information and that
purchases or sales of Company securities should not occur.  As a result, due to
the Company's Securities Trading Policy, there may be extended periods of time
each year when members of the Company's Board of Directors, officers and
management team (and certain affiliated parties) cannot participate in the
purchase or sale of USPB Class A or Class B Units.   A copy of the U.S. Premium
Beef, LLC Securities Trading Policy for Associated Persons is attached as
Exhibit 99.1.
Item 9.01. 
Financial Statements and Exhibits.
(d)        Exhibits.
