Each of the Reporting Persons entered into a Voting Agreement (the “Voting Agreement”), effective August 28, 2009, by and among EIP, Advanced BioEnergy, LLC (“ABE”), Hawkeye (and each of Hawkeye and EIP, an “Investor”), and SDWG (collectively, the “Voting Agreement Parties”), whereby the Voting Agreement Parties agreed that the Chief Executive Officer of ABE be nominated and elected to the ABE board of directors (the “CEO Designee”) and that the Investors each be entitled to designate two representatives to the ABE board of directors; provided, however, that if an Investor holds less than 10% of the then outstanding units of membership interest in ABE, such Investor shall have the right to designate one nominee to the ABE board of directors, and if an Investor holds less than 5% of the then outstanding units of membership interest in ABE, such Investor shall no longer have the right to designate any nominee to the ABE board of directors (each of the CEO Designee and the designees of the Investors, the “Designees”). The Voting Agreement Parties are obligated to nominate for election, recommend to ABE’s members the election of, and vote all units of membership interest of ABE held by such Voting Agreement Parties for the Designees as members of the board of directors of ABE.

The Reporting Persons do not expressly affirm membership in a group, however, and the Reporting Persons will vote with the other Amended and Restated Voting Agreement Parties for the sole purpose of nominating and electing the Designees and amending ABE’s operating agreement as contemplated in Amendment No. 1. Accordingly, the 237,800 Units reported in this Schedule 13D do not include units of membership interest of ABE owned by EIP, Hawkeye, SDWG, Series R, Series T or TEP.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

     Item 3 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

This report on Schedule 13D was originally filed on September 8, 2009 solely by reason of the Reporting Persons becoming parties to the Voting Agreement and not by reason of the parties making any purchases of Units.

As reported in the First Amendment to this Schedule 13D, on October 5, 2009, John Lovegrove, Troy Otte, Thomas Ravencroft and Keith Spohn (the “Acquiring Directors”) paid $30,000, $52,500, $52,500 and $30,000, respectively, to acquire 20,000, 35,000, 35,000 and 20,000 Units, respectively, of ABE. The funds used by the Acquiring Directors to purchase such Units came from each such Acquiring Director’s personal funds. Each Reporting Person that is not an Acquiring Director separately acquired all of his Units prior to entering into the Voting Agreement and entered into the Voting Agreement as a condition to Hawkeye purchasing Units of ABE.

The Second Amendment is filed by the Reporting Persons in connection with the entering into of Amendment No. 1 and does not report any acquisition or disposition of Units of ABE by the Reporting Persons listed in Item 2.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

     Item 4 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

The Reporting Persons entered into a Voting Agreement, effective August 28, 2009, by and among ABE, EIP, Hawkeye (each of Hawkeye and EIP, an “Investor”), SDWG, and certain of the directors of ABE (collectively, the “Voting Agreement Parties”), whereby the Voting Agreement Parties agreed that the Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer be nominated and elected to the Issuer board of directors (the “CEO Designee”) and that the Investors each be

Page 7 of 11

entitled to designate two representatives to the Issuer board of directors; provided, however, that if an Investor holds 5% or more but less than 10% of the then outstanding units of membership interest in Issuer, such Investor shall have the right to designate one nominee to the Issuer board of directors, and if an Investor holds less than 5% of the then outstanding units of membership interest in Issuer, such Investor shall no longer have the right to designate any nominee to the Issuer board of directors (each of the CEO Designee and the designees of the Investors, the “Designees”). The Voting Agreement Parties are obligated to nominate for election, recommend to its members the election of, and vote all units of membership interest of the Issuer held by such parties for the Designees as members of the Issuer board of directors, and the Voting Agreement Parties are required not to take any action that would result in, and to take any action necessary to prevent, the removal of any of the Designees and are prohibited from granting a proxy with respect to any units that is inconsistent with the terms of the Voting Agreement. In addition, pursuant to Amendment No. 1 (together with the Voting Agreement, the “Amended and Restated Voting Agreement), the Amended and Restated Voting Agreement Parties are required at the 2010 annual member meeting of the Issuer to vote all Units beneficially owned by such parties in favor of an amendment to the Issuer’s operating agreement which will, among other things, eliminate the restrictions on the number of authorized units of the Issuer. The Amended and Restated Voting Agreement will or may result in one or more of the actions specified in clauses (a)-(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The descriptions of the Voting Agreement and Amendment No. 1 in this Schedule 13D do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to such agreements, which are attached as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Advanced BioEnergy, LLC on September 3, 2009 and Exhibit 10.6 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Advanced BioEnergy, LLC on April 8, 2010, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

The Reporting Persons have no agreements with each other with respect to the voting of their Units, except as provided in the Amended and Restated Voting Agreement, or with respect to the disposition of their Units. While the Reporting Persons may be deemed a “group” pursuant to Rule 13d-5(b)(1) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Reporting Persons do not expressly affirm membership in a group and the Reporting Persons will vote with the other Amended and Restated Voting Agreement Parties for the sole purpose of nominating and electing directors.

The Acquiring Directors acquired the additional Units reported in the First Amendment to this Schedule 13D for investment purposes. Each of the Acquiring Directors from time to time intends to review their investments in ABE on the basis of various factors, including ABE’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for the Units of the Issuer in particular, as well as other developments and other investment opportunities. Based upon such review, the Acquiring Directors will take such actions in the future as they may individually deem appropriate in light of the circumstances existing, from time to time, which may include taking one or more of the actions specified in clauses (a) — (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Except to the extent specifically prohibited by the Amended and Restated Voting Agreement, each of the Reporting Persons reserves the right, in light of its ongoing evaluation of the Issuer’s financial condition, business, operations and prospects, the market price of the Units, conditions in the securities markets generally, general economic and industry conditions, its business

objectives and other relevant factors, to change its plans and intentions at any time, as it deems appropriate.
