<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On October&nbsp;11, 2008, Coffeyville Resources, LLC (&#147;CRLLC&#148;), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CVR
Energy, Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;), signed an Amended and Restated Settlement Deferral Letter (the
&#147;Deferral Letter&#148;) with J. Aron &#038; Company (&#147;J. Aron&#148;). The Deferral Letter defers the remaining
balance of $72.5&nbsp;million owed to J. Aron pursuant to the Company&#146;s cash flow swap from December&nbsp;15,
2008 to July&nbsp;31, 2009.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Interest will accrue on the amounts deferred pursuant to the Deferral Letter at the rate of
(i)&nbsp;LIBOR plus 2.75% until December&nbsp;15, 2008 and (ii)&nbsp;LIBOR plus 5.00%-7.50% (depending on J.
Aron&#146;s cost of capital) from December&nbsp;15, 2008 through the date of payment. The Deferral Letter
requires that CRLLC make prepayments of $5.0&nbsp;million for the quarters ending March&nbsp;31, 2009 and
June&nbsp;30, 2009 to reduce the deferred amounts. The Deferral Letter also requires that, to the
extent that CRLLC or any of its subsidiaries receives net insurance proceeds related to the July
2007 flood that they are not required to use to prepay CRLLC&#146;s credit agreement or invest pursuant
to the terms of CRLLC&#146;s credit agreement, all net insurance proceeds will be used to prepay the
deferred amounts. Half of CRLLC&#146;s deferred obligations are guaranteed by GS Capital Partners V,
L.P. (an affiliate of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (&#147;Goldman Sachs&#148;)) and half by Kelso Investment
Associates VII, L.P.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;J.&nbsp;Aron is an affiliate of Goldman Sachs. Certain affiliates of Goldman Sachs (the &#147;Goldman
Sachs Funds&#148;) beneficially own approximately 36.5% of the Company&#146;s common stock through their
membership interests in Coffeyville Acquisition II LLC, a stockholder of the Company. Pursuant to
a stockholders agreement among the Company, Coffeyville Acquisition LLC and Coffeyville Acquisition
II LLC, the Goldman Sachs Funds designate two members to the Company&#146;s nine-member board of
directors.
