On Wednesday, September 21, 2011, Western Dubuque Biodiesel, LLC (“WDB”) held its annual member meeting. Pursuant to the proxy statement filed by WDB, the following four proposals were presented at the annual meeting for a vote by the members: (1) To amend and restate WDB’s Operating Agreement to provide for three classes of units; (2) to reclassify WDB’s units into Class A, Class B and Class C Units for the purpose of discontinuing the registration of WDB’s units under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; (3) to elect two directors to the seats open for election; and (4) to adjourn or postpone the meeting if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies if there are not sufficient votes at the meeting to approve the matters under consideration. Due to the passage of Proposals 1 and 2, the outcome of voting of Proposal 4 was irrelevant.
