  4. REX Ethanol Strategy • Disciplined investment criteria • Invest only if project meets strategic and financial risk and return criteria • Align with farmers, farm cooperatives and farming communities as co-investors and owners of ethanol production facilities • Facilitates access to grain supply, local community support • Locate plants close to rail access and feedstocks • Utilize state-of-the-art ethanol production technology • Dry mill corn-processing • All plants are highly efficient Fagen, Inc. constructed utilizing ICM, Inc. technology • Fagen is large, respected U.S. green energy design-builder • Seek to match grain prices with ethanol and distiller grain sales at consolidated plants • Derivative contracts are generally not employed to hedge commodity price risks • Maximize ethanol plant returns via: • Running plants efficiently, often above nameplate capacity • Sell distillers grains as animal feed • Production of corn oil 4

  6. High Return Ethanol Investments • * Calculated based upon the weighted average capital invested and pre-tax returns generated over the time period • 1 Production commenced in July ’09 • 2 Production commenced in Sept. ‘08 6

  7. Ethanol Industry Considerations • The ethanol industry produced approximately 13.3 billion gallons of • ethanol in 2013, thereby reducing U.S. reliance on foreign oil • Helps U.S. balance of trade • Helps U.S. move towards energy independence • Over 462M barrels of imported oil displaced • Approximately 1/3 of corn used in ethanol production is returned to feed market in the form of distiller grains, corn gluten meal and corn oil* • National benefits • Government payments to corn growers have fallen from nearly $9 billion in 2006 to less than $2 billion in 2013* • Land transitioned away from “land bank” • Ethanol production generates higher tax revenues • Ethanol production added over $44B to GDP* • Ethanol production increased household income by ~$31B* • Industry receives no tax subsidies • Farm states are less impacted by challenged economic environment • Ethanol estimated to have supported over 387,000 jobs, including across ancillary industries, from agriculture to manufacturing to the service sector* • On a life cycle basis, corn-based ethanol reduces greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) by ~34% compared to gasoline – 13.3 billion gallons of ethanol reduced GHG emissions by 38 million metric tons, the equivalent of taking 8 million cars off the road* • $8.3B paid in federal, state and local taxes* • Sources:* Renewable Fuels Associations 7

Corn USDA Crop Production Forecast: 2013(January 2014 report)13.9 billion bushels (average acre yield of 158.8 bushels) 2012(November 2012 report)10.7 billion bushels (average acre yield of 122.3 bushels) Ethanol Federal EPA ethanol purchasing mandates(1) : YearTarget 2013 13.8 BGY 2014 13.0 BGY(2) Efficient plants expected to operate near capacity levels YearCapacity 201314.8 BGY (14.0 in operation at Jan. 2014) Distillers Grains / Corn Oil Allows for the recovery of approximately 1/3 of the cost of corn Expense/Demand/Pricing Drivers • 1 Mandates can be partially met by use of available RINS from the prior years toward the current • year requirements and/or to carry forward a deficit into the next compliance year. • 2 Proposed – not final EPA number. 8

Ethanol plants and other industrial investments Repay debt at existing facilities Energy projects using our commodity experience and state-of-the-art technology focus Share repurchases below book value ~1.7M shares repurchased over the last three fiscal years at average price of $17.82 ~2.8M shares repurchased over the last five fiscal years at average price of $16.00 Repurchased 137,015 shares in FY’13 at average price of $25.44 280,006 shares remaining under current repurchase authorization 8.2 million common shares outstanding Capital Allocation Priorities 12

  13. Much of the world’s oil reserves are in the form of heavy oil in deposits at depths below 2,000 feet Heavy oil is too viscous to flow to the well at a reasonable rate under ordinary conditions, so technology is needed to help extract it The most practical method developed so far is to inject steam into the reservoir, to raise the temperature thereby reducing the oil's viscosity Current methods are limited by the heat losses on the surface and in the well bore as the steam is sent down the injection well. For any particular heavy oil reservoir and price of oil, there is a maximum depth of the reservoir that can be economically exploited Deep Heavy Oil Technology Investment • REX invested in patented technology with potential to steam oil at depths currently unattainable • Current technology allows for injecting steam below grade to ~2,000 feet to extract heavy oil • New downhole steam generator technology seeks to create steam at depths below 2,000 feet to produce deep heavy oil • Modest investment / high potential returns • REX has invested ~$1M (through 1/31/14) for 60% equity stake in technology developer, to secure patents, and to pursue commercialization of the downhole steam generation technology • Presently seeking sites/opportunities to test and prove technology 13

REX Summary • Successful alternative energy investor since 1998 • Interests in seven ethanol production facilities with annualized sales of ~737 million gallons (TTM) • REX effective ownership interest of annualized TTM gallons sold = ~262 million gallons • Pre-tax ROI’s of 25% - 52% (trailing four year annualized) • Industry leading ethanol production skill and plant efficiencies • REX ethanol operations are among best performing plants • Alternative energy segment profit of $63.2M in in FY’13 • Growth opportunities in ethanol and other industrial sectors • Repay debt at existing facilities and expand ownership of existing facilities • Invest in new ethanol plants or industrial projects requiring similar skill sets • Proven management team with asset allocation discipline • 10.7% average ROE since 1993, despite low returns on high cash balances • Long-term program of share repurchases below book value • Insider ownership of approximately 24% • Strong asset base (at 1/31/14): • Shareholders’ equity $279.3M (~$34.06 per share) • Consolidated cash $105.1M • 8.2M diluted shares outstanding 14
