Strategic Rationale

•Premcor assets a great fit with Valero

•Combined company would be largest refiner in North America

•Enhanced geographic diversity, which further increases earnings stability

•Aligned strategies that further increase exposure to light-heavy spread

•Combined entity would process around 1 million bpd of Maya-like crudes by 2007

•Premcor assets provide profit improvement opportunities

•Ample optimization and strategic opportunities

•Valero has proven track record of increasing reliability, capacity and yields

•Market value of refining assets approaching replacement costs

•Scarcity of quality U.S. refining assets

•Acquiring 790 mbpd of capacity at 70% of current replacement cost
