Report of Independent Auditors
The Members of UNEV Pipeline, LLC
UNEV Pipeline LLC
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of UNEV Pipeline, LLC as of December 31, 2011, and the related statements of operations, changes in partners’ capital and statement of cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of UNEV Pipeline, LLC at December 31, 2011 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2011
1. Organization and Nature of Business
UNEV Pipeline, LLC (“UNEV”), a Delaware limited liability company, recently completed the UNEV Pipeline, a 400 mile, 12-inch refined products pipeline from Salt Lake City, Utah to Las Vegas, Nevada, together with terminal and ethanol blending facilities in the Cedar City, Utah and North Las Vegas areas and storage facilities at the Cedar City terminal. As of December 31, 2011, a subsidiary of HollyFrontier Corporation (“HFC”) owned 75% of the pipeline with a subsidiary of Sinclair Oil Corporation (“Sinclair”) owning the remaining 25% interest. The cost of constructing this pipeline including terminals and ethanol blending and storage facilities was approximately $410 million. The pipeline was mechanically complete in November 2011, and initial start-up activities commenced in December 2011. In this document, the words “we”, “our”, “ours” and “us” refer to UNEV unless the context otherwise indicates.
2. Accounting Policies
Uses of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents– For purposes of the statements of cash flows, we consider all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. The carrying amounts reported on the balance sheet approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.
Account Receivable– All receivables are due from HFC or Sinclair. Credit is extended based on evaluation of the customer’s financial condition. Credit losses would be charged to income when accounts are deemed uncollectible.
Long-Lived Assets – Properties and equipment are stated at cost. Maintenance, repairs and major replacements are generally expensed as incurred. Costs of replacements constituting improvements are capitalized. We evaluate long-lived assets, for potential impairment by identifying whether indicators of impairment exist and, if so, assessing whether the long-lived assets are recoverable from estimated future undiscounted cash flows. The actual amount of impairment loss, if any, to be recorded is equal to the amount by which a long-lived asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value. No impairments of long-lived assets were recorded during the period included in these financial statements.
Depreciation – Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method at annual rates following depreciation over the estimated useful lives of the assets, primarily 25 years for terminal facilities and tankage, 30 years for pipelines, and 5-10 years for corporate and other assets.
Revenue Recognition – Revenues are recognized as products are shipped through our pipelines and terminals or other services have been rendered. Billings to customers for obligations under their quarterly minimum revenue commitments are recorded as deferred revenue liabilities if the customer has the right to receive future services for these billings.
Taxes billed and collected from our pipeline and terminal customers are recorded on a net basis with no effect on net income.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Income Tax – We are organized as a pass-through for federal income tax purposes. As a result, our partners are responsible for federal income taxes based on their respective share of taxable income. UNEV’s operating jurisdictions are Utah and Nevada both of which conform to the federal pass-through entity tax treatment and do not levy taxes on federal tax partnerships. While UNEV is part of unitary group for Texas Franchise tax purposes which did levy entity level tax with HFC for the calendar year ended December 31, 2011, UNEV has no filing requirement for Texas on a separate entity basis. UNEV’s operating agreement provides that its Board of Directors, if it determines UNEV has net cash, is to distribute 40% of its taxable income to its members for their tax liability created by UNEV.
Regulatory Requirements – These financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The information contained in these financial statements may differ in some respects from the information filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”).
3. Related Parties
HFC was the largest shipper on the pipeline operating under a ten-year transportation agreement. Sinclair is the other shipper on the pipeline operating under a ten-year transportation agreement. All transactions with HFC and Sinclair have been labeled as affiliate transactions on the balance sheet and statement of operations.
In June 2011, Holly Energy Partners (“HEP”) was appointed the operator of UNEV. We paid management fees to HEP totaling $525,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011, which are included in operating costs.
Employees who provide direct services to us are employed by Holly Logistic Services, L.L.C., a subsidiary of HFC which is the general partner of HEP’s general partner. These employees’ costs, including salaries, bonuses, payroll taxes, benefits, and other direct costs, are charged to us monthly. We paid $449,000 with respect to such costs for the year ended December 31, 2011, which are included in operating costs.

5. Restricted Cash
The restricted cash consists of $1.0 million held in an escrow account pursuant to an agreement among UNEV, a utility services contractor and the financial institution. The escrow agreement was entered following settlement of certain claims between UNEV and the contractor regarding asset construction work. Funds will be released to UNEV or the contractor upon mutual agreement or pursuant to the determination of a court of competent jurisdiction if UNEV and the contractor are unable to reach an agreement.
6. New Accounting Standards
Presentation of Comprehensive Income
In June 2011, an accounting standard update was issued that requires the presentation of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements and eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income in the statement of stockholders’ equity. This standard is effective January 1, 2012 and will be applied retrospectively. This standard will not have an impact on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
7. Subsequent Events
Effective January 1, 2012, we entered into ten-year transportation agreements with HFC and Sinclair, which ten-year term commenced on March 1, 2012, and will result in minimum annualized payments to UNEV of $15.6 million and $7.4 million, respectively.
On July 12, 2012, HEP acquired HFC’s 75% interest in UNEV. HEP paid consideration consisting of $260.0 million in cash and 1,029,900 of their common units. Under the terms of the transaction, HEP also issued to HFC equity interests in its wholly owned subsidiary that entitles HFC to an interest in HEP’s share of future UNEV profits beginning in 2015 through 2032, subject to a cap of approximately $34.0 million and certain other limitations.
We have evaluated subsequent events through September 25, 2012.
