Item 8.01.  Other Events.


On October 4, 2010 Four Rivers BioEnergy Inc.’s (the “Company”) United Kingdom subsidiary, Four Rivers BioFuels Limited (“BioFuels”), entered into an amendment, effective as of October 1, 2010 (the “Amendment”) to an original agreement (the “Agreement”) dated March 24, 2010 with BP Oil International Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of BP plc (collectively “BP”).  The Agreement was modified such that the “First Lifting Date” (the date at which the first shipment of biodiesel was to be made to BP) was extended from October 1, 2010 to February 1, 2011. Under the terms of the Amendment, if the first shipment is not made before February 1, 2011, the Agreement will terminate unless BP accepts to a further extension.


Biofuels will not make the first shipment of biodiesel to BP prior to February 1, 2011 but, under the terms of the Amendment, it had the right to ask BP to agree to a further extension of the First Lifting Date, which it has done.


The Company and BP are presently negotiating the form of said extension with a view to entering into a further amendment to the Agreement on or before February 1, 2011. Until such time as BP and Biofuels have executed a definitive agreement as to the terms of the proposed further extension of the First Lifting Date, there can be no certainty that such extension will be granted on terms that are acceptable to Biofuels or the Company.
