Preliminary Draft – Confidential Wall Street Research Analyst Commentary “Last week, Western Refining (WNR) made public its offer to buy the remaining NTI common units, adding to its current ownership of 100% of the GP and ~38% of the LP units. What’s known of the deal so far looks fair to us and accretive to WNR. It does not fundamentally change our view on WNR…Deal terms suggest WNR would pay 8.0x EV/EBITDA based on our 2016 estimates and ~$2k per complex barrel. Western plans to fund the cash portion of the offer (~$1.0bn) with a combination of cash on hand (~$575mn at WNR as of Oct. 23), debt issued in capital markets, or a bank-sponsored bridge loan. We assume WNR issues $750mn in debt at 6.0%, issues $540mn of WNR shares, and uses $250mn in cash to fund the deal. The deal would be accretive, even assuming it increases WNR’s effective tax rate. While we believe the deal is expensive on asset value, the fact that WNR will use mostly cash/debt to fund the transaction makes the deal accretive.” –Citi, Faisel Khan; November 4, 2015 “Our thesis remains unchanged – Overweight rating on NTI. We continue to think that the company is well positioned, given its ongoing pipeline of organic investment opportunities in refining and logistics areas. We believe its logistics assets offer good value but currently not fully recognized by the market. More importantly, we think the company’s strong operational and financial performances will likely pressure WNR to raise their recent takeover bid. We reiterate our PT at $34/unit.” –Barclays, Paul Cheng; November 4, 2015 “No update or timetable on WNR offer. WNR recently offered to acquire the remaining units of NTI that it does not already own for $17.50/unit in cash and 0.2266 shares of WNR per NTI unit (~$27.50/unit currently). NTI provided no additional info around the deal on its call, and said there is no timeline to make a decision. We still see a decent chance for the offer to move higher, as the current offer is non-binding and more of a negotiation starting point. As a result, we maintain our Outperform rating.” –RBC Capital Markets, Brad Heffern; November 3, 2015 12 Source: Wall Street Research NTI Situation Analysis

Preliminary Draft – Confidential Rating Agency Commentary 13 Source: Moody’s, S&P “NTE’s B1 Corporate Family Rating (CFR) reflects the company’s single refinery asset risk and relatively small scale, particularly compared to its largest regional competitor (Flint Hills), the inherent volatility and capital intensity of the refining sector, and the excess cash payouts associated with its MLP corporate structure. The rating is supported by the refinery’s proven operational track record and favorable geographic location. NTE’s refinery has access to discounted Bakken and Canadian crude oils and is well positioned within a product-short region, delivering strong margins since 2011. However, margins have declined somewhat from recent peaks (gross margin was 19.6% for the 12 months ended June 30, 2015 versus 23.4% in 2012, including Moody’s standard analytical adjustments) while remaining strong. We expect this trend to continue due to heightened volatility in commodity prices as increased take away capacity comes on stream. The CFR also benefits modestly from NTE’s integrated owned/operated retail network through which NTE sells a majority of its gasoline and diesel production. “ –James Wilkins, Moody’s October 2, 2015 Credit Rating: B1 “Our assessment of Northern Tier’s “vulnerable” business risk profile partly hinges on its reliance on one refinery— and its small size and the risk of unplanned downtime—for most of its cash flow to service its obligations. We also see some added risk from Northern Tier’s variable MLP structure. In our view, this structure puts more pressure on the partnership to manage distributions, which could prove challenging given the refining industry’s highly cyclical nature. Northern Tier’s ability to source lower-priced crudes and the strong regional demand for its refined products, which has led to robust profitability and cash flow, only partly mitigates these risks. “ –Michael Grande, Standard & Poor’s March 16, 2015 Credit Rating: B+ NTI Situation Analysis

WNR and WNRL Situation Analysis Preliminary Draft – Confidential Wall Street Research Analyst Commentary

“We like WNR’s advantaged strategic location in the Permian and Four Corners Basin as well as its exposure to Bakken and Canadian plays through its ownership in NTI. We think this asset base will enable WNR to steadily raise cash returns to shareholders, while pursuing high-return investment projects for further growth. We think WNR’s recent offer to buy the remaining NTI units that they do not currently own is logical and should lead to much improved and more efficient operations. However, we think the offer price may have to be raised given the stellar performance of NTI in recent quarters.”

–Barclays, Paul Cheng; November 4, 2015

“Following the recently announced NTI deal, capital allocation was a key focus for the call. Although WNR was restricted from discussing the NTI deal, management reiterated their interest in attractive midstream and retail assets for potential refining M&A in all regions in the US besides the East/Gulf Coasts. As a reminder, we ran sensitivities on the NTI opportunity, which showed the base case (pre-synergies) SOTP valuation impact could be a headwind, requiring synergies to get back to neutral. We await more color on these synergies…We believe the company has a healthy balance sheet, which looks roughly in line with its peers when factoring in assumed return of capital from FCF generation and dropdowns to WNRL.”

–J.P. Morgan, Phil Gresh; November 3, 2015

“Management did not make any comments regarding the proposed NTI acquisition on the conference call. We see the acquisition as value neutral in 2016 inclusive of $50MM in logistics EBITDA from NTI to be dropped to WNRL. The proposed acquisition could have valuation benefits, however, expanding WNR’s fully controlled operating footprint and reducing asset concentration risk. NTI also contributes additional retail assets to the portfolio, and we see the St. Paul system as an operational analogue to WNR’s legacy asset base. Lastly, the deal simplifies WNR’s structure and removes a headwind valuation from uncertainty surrounding NTI.”

WNR and WNRL Situation Analysis Preliminary Draft – Confidential Rating Agency Commentary

“Last Monday, Western Refining, Inc. (WNR, B1 stable) said that it had made a $1.6 billion cash and-stock offer to buy the 62% stake in Northern Tier Energy, LP (NTI, unrated), the parent of Northern Tier Energy, LLC (B1 negative), now held by the public. The takeover is credit positive for WNR because it will improve its scale and business profile without imposing a large leverage burden. The deal will give WNR full ownership of three refineries, help diversify its cash flows and geography of operations, and simplify its legal structure. The takeover will also be credit positive for NTI, a master-limited partnership that will become a wholly owned subsidiary of WNR, and therefore will no longer pay out its excess cash flow to public shareholders. WNR’s use of equity and existing cash will limit the increase in leverage from the acquisition.”

–James Wilkins, Moody’s

November 2, 2015 Credit Rating: B1

“Western is relatively small and has limited geographic diversity. Both of Western’s refineries are in the Southwest, with a combined throughput capacity of about 156,000 barrels per day (bpd) and medium complexity (about 80% of the crude slate is light-sweet). Western gets a substantial portion of its crude oil from the Permian Basin, which prices off of the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) benchmark, further benefiting margins relative to its coastal peers that use the more expensive waterborne crude oils such as North Sea Brent or Louisiana Light Sweet. For 2015, we expect the WTI and Brent pricing differential to be in a narrow range of between $3 to $5 per barrel, which should continue to benefit Western’s refining margins… Western also owns a 38.4% limited partner interest and 100% of the general partner interest in Northern Tier Energy LP. Our assessment of Northern Tier’s “vulnerable” business risk profile partly hinges on its reliance on one refinery for most of its cash flow, its small size (refining capacity of 97,800 bpd) compared with the partnership’s peers, and the lack of operational diversity, which makes Northern Tier vulnerable to regional economic downturns, supply shocks, cost increases, and margin volatility in the Midwest. Partly offsetting these risks are Northern Tier’s access to lower-priced Canadian and Bakken crude oil, high complexity that allows it to process a variety of heavy crudes into higher-value refined products like gasoline and distillates, and favorable local market dynamics, which gives it the ability to receive a premium on the refined products it produces.”

WNR and WNRL Situation Analysis Preliminary Draft – Confidential Wall Street Research Analyst Commentary

“Key earnings takeaways are $180mm TexNew Mex crude pipe drop closed and modestly lower-than expected 3Q results from wholesale segment more than offsetting solid crude pipe volume growth. While lower crude prices are a headwind for the midstream industry, WNRL posted QoQ crude pipe volume growth on both Delaware Basin and Four Corners systems. Combining diverse asset mix of crude pipes, storage and fuels distribution, organic projects and future drop downs on a relatively small EBITDA base, WNRL looks well positioned to meet our 17% distribution CAGR estimate (2015-18). We fine-tune our price target to $33 from $35, reflecting higher cost of capital from MLP sector sell-off.”

–Barclays, Brian Zarahn; November 9, 2015

“During the quarter, WNR made a bid to acquire the remaining 62% interest in NTI not currently owned. For WNRL, the implication would be additional midstream assets available for dropdown (already reflected in our model). We are lowering our 2015 and 2016 DCF/unit estimates to $1.70 and $2.37, respectively, from $1.78 and $2.46 to reflect Q3 results and our revised assumptions for the size of expected dropdowns in 2016. We maintain our Outperform rating given the partnership’s enviable footprint in the Delaware Basin and visible growth trajectory, underpinned by low risk fee-based cash flows…We believe WNRL is poised to deliver an attractive total return driven by visible distribution growth potential supported by Permian drilling activity and dropdown acquisitions. We forecast a 5-year distribution CAGR of ~11% predicated on increasing utilization of existing assets and ~$1.2B of aggregate dropdown acquisitions and expansion capex in 2015-20. Approx. 80% of WNRL’s distribution is tax deferred.”

WNR and WNRL Situation Analysis Preliminary Draft – Confidential Rating Agency Commentary

“Moody’s views WNRL’s stand-alone credit profile as more consistent with a B2 Corporate Family Rating (CFR), reflecting its stable cash flows from long-term, fee-based contracts with minimum volume commitments, and its potential growth trajectory, but restrained by its small scale of operations with limited third-party revenue, short track record as an MLP with its portfolio of assets, and high distributions associated with its MLP structure. The assigned B1 CFR reflects a one-notch uplift due to its strategic importance to WNR, as the MLP will provide WNR with critical infrastructure and a coordinated growth strategy. Additionally, WNR’s support is reflected in its significant ownership stake in WNRL… We estimate WNRL’s financial leverage, pro forma for the acquisition closed in September 2014, to be below 4x and improving further in 2015, driven by some EBITDA growth. Along with growing EBITDA, we also expect WNRL to increase distributions. WNRL’s cost of capital could also be burdened by its incentive distribution rights (IDRs), as the partnership reaches the “high splits” level at some point in the future. WNRL’s high payouts eliminate free cash flow that would otherwise be available to fund growth capital, acquisitions, or to reduce debt.”

–Amol Joshi, Moody’s February 4, 2015 Credit Rating: B1

“The partnership’s “vulnerable” business risk profile reflects its limited operating history, small scale and narrow geographic footprint, and reliance on its general partner, Western Refining, for most of its revenue. WNRL’s “significant” financial risk profile reflects expected debt to EBITDA in the low 3x area and the master limited partnership (MLP) structure, which incentivizes the partnership to pay out most of its free cash flow (after maintenance-related capital spending) to unitholders and relies on the capital markets to fund its growth strategy…WNRL’s short track record as an MLP, as well as its size, scale, and geographic diversity, limits the current rating because we view the partnership as somewhat weaker than many of its midstream peers in the ‘B’ rating category. The partnership’s asset footprint is limited to the Delaware Basin in West Texas and southern New Mexico and the Four Corners area in northwestern New Mexico; our 2015 estimate for EBITDA of about $120 million to $130 million is among the smaller MLPs that we rate.”

–Michael Grande, Standard & Poor’s
