Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) Option became exercisable to the extent of 20% at September 24, 2000 and becomes exercisable for an additional 20% on each September 24 thereafter until the option becomes fully exercisable on September 24, 2004. Option becomes fully exercisable in the event of certain terminations within 60 days before or at any time after a substantial corporate change (as defined) in the ownership of Holly Corporation or its principal business operations.
(2) Option generally expires ten years from the effective date of grant (the period for exercise may be extended in certain cases following the death of the reporting person). If the reporting person's employment terminates because of death, permanent disability or normal retirement, the option is generally exercisable in full for two years from the date of termination. If the reporting person's employment is terminated for cause (as defined), the option immediately ceases to be exercisable. If the reporting person's employment terminates for any other reason, the option is exercisable for one year after such termination to the extent the option was exercisable at termination.
(3) Option was partial consideration to employee for services.
 
Remarks:
Amendment corrects entry in Column 5 of Table II to show number of stock options exercised under (D) rather than (A).

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
