<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 9pt">Considering its exposure to physical impacts, along with regulatory
and reputational risks associated with climate change, it is incumbent on Casey&rsquo;s to reduce emissions across its value chain, in
alignment with the 1.5&deg;C Paris goal, in order to mitigate these risks. Quantifying and setting reduction targets across its full value
chain emissions would enable Casey&rsquo;s to further understand the climate impacts of its direct operations, supply chain, and create
strategies to reduce climate risk.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 9pt">As shareholders grow increasingly concerned about corporate
plans to address climate-related risks, forward-looking companies stand to gain a competitive advantage by aligning with climate-related
disclosure expectations and adopting greenhouse gas reduction targets. Casey&rsquo;s risks falling behind peer retailers that also sell
fuel, such as Walmart, Kroger, and Costco, which have set comprehensive emissions reduction targets.<SUP>6</SUP></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Our Company is the third-largest convenience store retailer in the
United States.<SUP>7</SUP> Casey&rsquo;s identifies petroleum-based motor fuel as its largest revenue product, accounting for approximately
63% of Casey&rsquo;s total revenue with over 2.5 billion gallons sold in fiscal year 2022.<SUP>8</SUP> The significant emissions impact
of the transportation sector has made it a priority for decarbonization incentives and regulations,<SUP>9</SUP> particularly in the U.S.,
where cars and trucks generate more than 23% of national greenhouse gas emissions.<SUP>10</SUP> As Casey&rsquo;s acknowledges, a shift
toward electric or alternative-fueled vehicles could fundamentally change the shopping and driving habits of its customers, &ldquo;potentially
result[ing] in fewer guest visits to our stores, decreases in sales revenue across all categories or lower profit margins.&rdquo;<SUP>11</SUP>
While Casey&rsquo;s has added a small number of EV charging stations across its stores, it remains unclear to investors how Casey&rsquo;s
will protect itself from climate-related risks to its most profitable product, petroleum-based motor fuel.<SUP>12</SUP></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In addition to changing consumer habits, Casey&rsquo;s states that
&ldquo;changes in our climate, including the effects of carbon emissions in the environment&rdquo; may lead to additional government regulation,
which could adversely impact its business and operations.<SUP>13</SUP> The SEC proposed rules to enhance and standardize climate-related
disclosures for investors in March 2022. The proposed rules would require registrants to include information about climate-related risks,
including greenhouse gas emissions.<SUP>14</SUP> While the SEC has yet to finalize its disclosure rule, the European Union has finalized
its Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, under which regulated companies will have to report Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. <SUP>15</SUP>
Climate-related regulatory risks are increasing globally. By reducing the emissions from its full value chain, Casey&rsquo;s can prepare
itself to comply with anticipate<FONT STYLE="font-size: 11pt">d climate regulations and benefit from being an early mover.</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In addition to fuel, Casey&rsquo;s food and distribution-associated
emissions are significant. The investor group Ceres identifies Casey&rsquo;s as part of the Food Emissions 50 initiative, meaning it is
one of 50 highest-emitting food companies in the U.S.<SUP>16</SUP> Casey&rsquo;s especially relies on the availability and affordability
of food ingredients such as cheese and proteins.<SUP>17</SUP> Yet climate change is reducing yields and causing food inflation around
the globe.<SUP>18</SUP> Furthermore, climate-related extreme weather may affect Casey&rsquo;s. The U.S. is experiencing increases in costly
weather-related disasters.<SUP>19</SUP> Casey&rsquo;s operates in the Midwest region, which is vulnerable to extreme weather such as tornadoes,
flooding, and ice storms, which can damage facilities or reduce consumer traffic at locations.<SUP>20</SUP> Casey&rsquo;s is vulnerable
to climate impacts on its food supply chain and distribution logistics. By expanding its emissions reduction efforts to include emissions
from its full value chain, Casey&rsquo;s can mitigate these physical and operational risks.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Even while recognizing the serious climate-related risks to its business,
Casey&rsquo;s lacks any emissions reduction target. The Company notes that the impact of climate change and the energy transition could
have an &ldquo;adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.&rdquo;<SUP>21</SUP> Yet, Casey&rsquo;s has
failed to provide shareholders with a plan that adequately addresses these risks and reduces emissions, which would help the business
remain competitive and profitable in a net-zero economy.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In its opposition statement, the Board states that it will disclose
Scope 1 and 2 emissions data in its 2023 ESG report. Investors welcome this development, but Casey&rsquo;s disclosures still do not demonstrate
that its current initiatives are adequate to align with investor expectations for addressing climate risk. While Casey&rsquo;s is undertaking
initial steps in its sustainability process, including defining high-level responsibilities around ESG efforts and completing a materiality
assessment, these are considered basic disclosures. They are insufficient to assure investors that Casey&rsquo;s is adequately managing
climate risks and opportunities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Casey&rsquo;s existing environmental stewardship initiatives are likewise
not sufficient in scale. For example, Casey&rsquo;s states it is offering renewable-blended fuel and installing EV charging stations at
a small portion (less than 6%) of its locations.<SUP>22</SUP> Yet it is unclear to what extent these efforts will lead to company-wide
emissions reductions. Additionally, Casey&rsquo;s states it has installed solar panels on one distribution center and has plans to install
panels on refrigerated trailers. These are important actions, but do not constitu<FONT STYLE="font-size: 11pt">te a comprehensive plan
to optimize renewable electricity. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">As a large-emitting food retailer, Casey&rsquo;s has an influential
position that could contribute to shifting the food and agriculture sector towards net zero. Setting science-based targets sends an important
signal throughout Casey&rsquo;s value chain that can spark innovation and collaboration. By reducing the emissions from its full value
chain, Casey&rsquo;s can mitigate operational risks posed by climate change, while also preparing to comply with heightened climate regulations
and meet shifting consumer demand.</P>

responding to climate-related risks and opportunities, its competitors may have a greater ability to respond to changes in the economy
and new opportunities within the industry, including those related to electric vehicle charging stations. The failure to react to climate-related
opportunities could be especially damaging; CDP analysis has shown that the financial benefits of climate business opportunities may be
as much as 15 times higher than the cost of climate-related risks.<SUP>28</SUP> Companies that directly address the climate crisis put
themselves in a strong position for aligning with global best practices, optimize competitive advantages, and thereby benefit from the

or one-size-fits-all</B>. This proposal allows Casey&rsquo;s to develop strategies appropriate to its business while meeting investor
expectations of integrating the latest climate science into risk mitigation. Every sector and business faces unique challenges in meeting
the needs of customers and operations. Overcoming such challenges is possible and necessary, as demonstrated by the number of Casey&rsquo;s
peers with emission reduction targets and transition plans. Like its peers, Casey&rsquo;s can find levers to address its value chain emissions
to remain competitive and efficient. The proposal <FONT STYLE="font-size: 11pt">allows Casey&rsquo;s to disclose a science-based emission
reduction plan that works with its business. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 9pt; background-color: white"><B>The proposal is not premature</B>.
The Board states that this proposal is not supported by appropriate third-party standards and that it is hesitant to act before anticipated
rules are released. However, a variety of organizations do provide guidance to food retail companies around target setting and decarbonization
strategies, including the SBTi&rsquo;s FLAG sector guidance.<SUP>30</SUP> Indeed, peers have been able to establish and work towards emission
reduction targets with available resources, proving that such ambitions are achievable within the integrated retail sector. Furthermore,
retail companies such as Advance Auto Parts, Inc., Domino&rsquo;s Pizza, and Tractor Supply Company are expanding Scope 3 reporting and
leveraging those insights to create and support more resilient supply chains. Climate mitigation and adaptation demand immediate investment
to adequately protect Casey&rsquo;s from increasing risks and costs.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 9pt; background-color: white">Additionally, we note that the proposed
SEC rule builds on established voluntary frameworks, such as TCFD and the GHG Protocol, which already provide readily available tools
for conducting emissions inventories and disclosing relevant risks and opportunities.<SUP>31</SUP> The SEC is not likely to introduce
any unexpected or disruptive requirements, making it highly beneficial for our Company to proactively align with such frameworks. By being
proactive and taking steps to comply with these regulations, Casey&rsquo;s can ensure that its operations remain efficient and aligned
with evolving standards. It is widely recognized that proactively complying with regulations is far more advantageous than reactive measures.<SUP>32</SUP></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: left; margin-top: 0pt; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt; background-color: white">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 9pt; background-color: white">In conclusion, we find the Board&rsquo;s
rationale for delaying a comprehensive emissions reduction strategy to be unpersuasive. By postponing this crucial work, Casey&rsquo;s
risks putting itself at a competitive disadvantage in the marketplace and restricting its ability to innovate in response to climate challenges.
As shareholders, it is in our best interest to support this proposal and safeguard the Company&rsquo;s future.</P>
