| Feedstock Flexibility* All crude purchased is WTI 'price referenced' ...Without cutting maximum crude rates we could run 100k b/d of heavy crude. In a zero crack spread environment cutting maximum crude rates we could run up to 136k b/d. But it is not only about Canadian Crude:Tulsa and Woods Cross refineries limit heavy barrels because of our high margin specialty lubricants production at Tulsa and our preference for running Black Wax at Woods Cross.WTS discount to WTI has also widened recently, and we have significant flexibility to run WTS. 23 *Please note these are current and estimated maximum crude rates and are subject to change based on a variety of factors. kbpd Capacity WCS Bakken Black Wax WTS Comments: Tulsa 125 2 30+ Tulsa West mostly WTI due to Lubes Production limiting heavy bbls to Tulsa East.

| Definitions Non GAPP measurements: We report certain financial measures that are not prescribed or authorized by U. S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). We discuss management's reasons for reporting these non-GAAP measures below. Although management evaluates and presents these non-GAAP measures for the reasons described below, please be aware that these non-GAAP measures are not alternatives to revenue, operating income, income from continuing operations, net income, or any other comparable operating measure prescribed by GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated and/or presented differently than measures with the same or similar names that are reported by other companies, and as a result, the non-GAAP measures we report may not be comparable to those reported by others.Refining gross margin or refinery gross margin: the difference between average net sales price and average costs of products per barrel of produced refined products. This does not include the associated depreciation, depletion and amortization costs. Refining gross margin or refinery gross margin is a non-GAAP performance measure that is used by our management and others to compare our refining performance to that of other companies in our industry. This margin does not include the effect of depreciation, depletion and amortization. Other companies in our industry may not calculate this performance measure in the same manner. Our historical refining gross margin or refinery gross margin is reconciled to net income under "Reconciliation to Amounts Reported Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles" of Holly Frontier Corporation's 2011 10-K filed February 28, 2011.Net Operating Margin: Net operating margin is a non-GAAP performance measure that is used by our management and others to compare our refining performance to that of other companies in our industry. This margin does not include the effect of depreciation, depletion and amortization. Other companies in our industry may not calculate this performance measure in the same manner. Our historical net operating margin is reconciled to net income under "Reconciliation to Amounts Reported Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles" of Holly Frontier Corporation's 2011 10-K filed February 28, 2011.EBITDA: Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, which we refer to as EBITDA, is calculated as net income plus (i) interest expense net of interest income, (ii) income tax provision, and (iii) depreciation, depletion and amortization. EBITDA is not a calculation provided for under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States; however, the amounts included in the EBITDA calculation are derived from amounts included in our consolidated financial statements. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or operating income as an indication of our operating performance or as an alternative to operating cash flow as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. EBITDA is presented here because it is a widely used financial indicator used by investors and analysts to measure performance. EBITDA is also used by our management for internal analysis and as a basis for financial covenants. Our historical EBITDA is reconciled to net income under "Reconciliation to Amounts Reported Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles" of Holly Frontier Corporation's 2011 10-K filed February 28, 2011.Debt-To-Capital: A measurement of a company's financial leverage, calculated as the company's long term debt divided by its total capital. Debt includes all long-term obligations. Total capital includes the company's debt and shareholders' equity. 5 Year Return on Invested Capital: A measurement which for our purposes is calculated using the 5 year average Net Income divided by the sum of the 5 year average of Total Equity and Long Term Debt. We consider ROIC to be a meaningful indicator of our financial performance, and we evaluate this metric because it measures how effectively we use the money invested in our operations.IDR: Incentive Distribution RightsBPD: the number of barrels per calendar day of crude oil or petroleum products.BPSD: the number of barrels per stream day of crude oil or petroleum products.MMSCFD: million standard cubic feet per day.Gas Oil Hydrocracker: a refinery unit which uses catalyst at high pressure and temperature and in the presence of hydrogen to convert high boiling point hydrocarbons to light transportation fuels and low sulfur FCC feedstock.Solvent deasphalter / residuum oil supercritical extraction ("ROSE"): a refinery unit that uses a light hydrocarbon like propane or butane to extract non asphaltene heavy oils from asphalt or atmospheric reduced crude. These deasphalted oils are then further converted to gasoline and diesel in the FCC process. The remaining asphaltenes are either sold, blended to fuel oil or blended with other asphalt as a hardener.. 25 |
