NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1: Description of Business and Presentation of Financial Statements
Holly Energy Partners, L.P. (HEP) together with its consolidated subsidiaries, is a publicly held
master limited partnership, currently 46% owned by Holly Corporation and its subsidiaries
(collectively Holly). HEP commenced operations July 13, 2004 upon the completion of its initial
public offering. In this document, the words we, our, ours and us refer to HEP unless the
context otherwise indicates.
Holly recognizes us as a variable interest entity. Our purchase of Hollys crude pipelines and
tankage assets on February 29, 2008 qualified as a reconsideration event whereby Holly reassessed
their beneficial interest in us and determined that their beneficial interest in us exceeds 50%.
Accordingly, Holly reconsolidated us effective March 1, 2008.
We operate in one business segment the operation of petroleum product and crude oil pipelines,
tankage and terminal facilities.
One of Hollys wholly-owned subsidiaries owns a refinery in Artesia, New Mexico, which Holly
operates in conjunction with crude, vacuum distillation and other facilities situated in Lovington,
New Mexico (collectively, the Navajo Refinery). The Navajo Refinery produces high-value refined
products such as gasoline, diesel fuel and jet fuel and serves markets in the southwestern United
States and northern Mexico. We own and operate the two parallel intermediate feedstock pipelines
(the Intermediate Pipelines), which connect the New Mexico refining facilities. Our refined
product pipelines serve as part of the product distribution network that services the Navajo
Refinery. Our terminal operations serving the Navajo Refinery include a truck rack at the Navajo
Refinery and four integrated refined product terminals located in New Mexico, Texas and Arizona.
On February 29, 2008, we acquired pipeline and tankage assets from Holly (the Crude Pipelines and
Tankage Assets) that also service the Navajo Refinery. See Note 2 for a further description of
these assets.
Another of Hollys wholly-owned subsidiaries owns a refinery located near Salt Lake City, Utah (the
Woods Cross Refinery). Our operations serving the Woods Cross Refinery include a truck rack at
the refinery, a refined product terminal in Spokane, Washington and a 50% non-operating interest in
product terminals in Boise and Burley, Idaho. See Note 2 for a description of the Crude Pipelines
and Tankage Assets that also service the Woods Cross Refinery.
We also own and operate refined products pipelines and terminals, located primarily in Texas, that
service Alon USA, Inc.s refinery in Big Spring, Texas.
Additionally, we own a refined product terminal in Mountain Home, Idaho, and a 70% interest in Rio
Grande Pipeline Company (Rio Grande), which provides transportation of liquid petroleum gases to
northern Mexico.
The consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007
included herein have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). The interim financial statements
reflect all adjustments, that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation
of our results for the interim periods. Such adjustments are considered to be of a normal
recurring nature. Although certain notes and other information required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted, we believe that
the disclosures in these consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. Results of operations for interim periods
are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that will be realized for the year
ending December 31, 2008.
We have reclassified state income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 to conform
to our current presentation at June 30, 2008. State income taxes were previously classified as
operations
- 8 -
and general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statement of income for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2007.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157 Fair Value Measurements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 157, Fair
Value Measurements. This standard simplifies and codifies guidance on fair value measurements
under generally accepted accounting principles. This standard defines fair value, establishes a
framework for measuring fair value and prescribes expanded disclosures about fair value
measurements. It also establishes a fair value hierarchy that categorizes inputs used in fair
value measurements into three broad levels. Under this hierarchy, quoted prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities are considered the most reliable evidence of fair value and are
given the highest priority level (level 1). Unobservable inputs are considered the least reliable
and are given the lowest priority level (level 3). We adopted this standard effective January 1,
2008.
We have interest rate swaps that we measure at fair value on a recurring basis using level 2
inputs. See Note 5 for additional information on these swaps.
EITF No. 07-04 Application of the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128, Earnings per
Share, to Master Limited Partnerships
In March 2008, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 07-04, Application
of the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128 to Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs). This
standard provides guidance in the application of the two-class method in computing earnings per
unit to reflect an MLPs contractual obligation to make distributions to the general partner,
limited partners, and incentive distribution rights holder. EITF No. 07-04 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We will
adopt this standard effective January 1, 2009. We are currently evaluating the impact of this
standard on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. EITF 03-6-1 Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based
Transactions Are Participating Securities
In June 2006, the FASB issued FSP No. 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in
Share-Based Transactions Are Participating Securities. This standard provides guidance in
determining whether unvested instruments granted under share-based payment transactions are
participating securities and, therefore, should be included in earnings per share calculations
under the two-class method provided under FASB No. 128, Earnings per Share. FSP No. 03-6-1 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those
fiscal years. We will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2009. We are currently evaluating
the impact of this standard on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Note 2: Acquisition
On February 29, 2008, we acquired the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets from Holly for $180.0
million that consist of crude oil trunk lines that deliver crude oil to Hollys Navajo Refinery in
southeast New Mexico, gathering and connection pipelines located in west Texas and New Mexico,
on-site crude tankage located within the Navajo and Woods Cross refinery complexes, a jet fuel
products pipeline and leased terminal between Artesia and Roswell, New Mexico, and crude oil and
product pipelines that support Hollys Woods Cross Refinery. The consideration paid consisted of
$171.0 million in cash and 217,497 of our common units having a fair value of $9.0 million. We
financed the $171.0 million cash portion of the consideration through borrowings under our senior
secured revolving credit agreement expiring August 2011.
In connection with this transaction, we entered into a 15-year crude pipelines and tankage
agreement
with Holly (the Holly CPTA). Under this agreement, Holly agreed to transport and store volumes
of crude oil on the crude pipelines and tankage facilities that at the agreed rates will initially
result in minimum annual revenues to us of $25.3 million. The agreed upon tariffs on the crude
pipelines will be adjusted each year at a rate equal to the percentage change in the producer price
index (PPI) but will
- 9 -
not decrease as a result of a decrease in the PPI. Additionally, Holly
amended our omnibus agreement (the Omnibus Agreement) to provide $7.5 million of indemnification
for environmental noncompliance and remediation liabilities associated with the Crude Pipelines and
Tankage Assets that occurred or existed prior to our acquisition for a period of up to fifteen
years.
The consideration paid for the Crude Pipeline and Tankage Assets was allocated to the individual
assets acquired based on managements preliminary fair value estimates. In accounting for this
acquisition, we recorded pipeline and terminal assets of $108.0 million and an intangible asset of
$72.0 million, representing the allocated value of the Holly CPTA. This intangible asset is
included in Transportation agreements, net in our consolidated balance sheets.

Note 5: Debt
Credit Agreement
In February 2008, we amended our $100 million senior secured revolving credit agreement expiring in
August 2011 to increase the size from $100 million to $300 million (the Credit Agreement), which
we used to finance the $171.0 million cash portion of the consideration paid for the Crude
Pipelines and Tankage Assets acquired from Holly. Union Bank of California, N.A. is one of the
lenders and serves as administrative agent under this agreement. As of June 30, 2008 and December
31, 2007, we had $191.0 million and zero, respectively, outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
The Credit Agreement is available to fund capital expenditures, acquisitions, and working capital
and for general partnership purposes. Advances under the Credit Agreement that are either
designated for working capital or have been used as interim financing to fund capital expenditures
are classified as short-term liabilities. Other advances under the Credit Agreement are classified
as long-term liabilities. In addition, the Credit Agreement is available to fund letters of credit
up to a $50.0 million sub-limit and to fund distributions to unitholders up to a $20.0 million
sub-limit. During the six months ended June 30, 2008, we received advances totaling $20.0 million
under the Credit Agreement that were used to fund capital expenditures.
We have the right to request an increase in the maximum amount of the Credit Agreement, up to
$370.0 million. Such request will become effective if (a) certain conditions specified in the
Credit Agreement are met and (b) existing lenders under the Credit Agreement or other financial
institutions reasonably acceptable to the administrative agent commit to lend such increased
amounts under the agreement.
Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of our assets.
Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement is recourse to HEP Logistics Holdings, L.P., our general
partner, and guaranteed by our wholly-owned subsidiaries.
We may prepay all loans at any time without penalty, except for payment of certain breakage and
related costs. We are required to reduce all working capital borrowings under the Credit Agreement
to zero for a period of at least 15 consecutive days once each twelve-month period prior to the
maturity date of the agreement.
Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement bears interest, at our option, at either (a) the reference
rate as announced by the administrative agent plus an applicable margin (ranging from 0.25% to
1.50%) or (b) at a rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable
margin (ranging from 1.00% to 2.50%). In each case, the applicable margin is based upon the ratio
of our funded debt (as defined in the agreement) to EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization, as defined in the Credit Agreement). We incur a commitment fee on
the unused portion of the Credit Agreement at a rate ranging from 0.20% to 0.50% based upon the
ratio of our funded debt to EBITDA for the four most recently completed fiscal quarters. At June
30, 2008, we are subject to the 0.30% rate on the $109.0 million of the unused commitment on the
Credit Agreement. The agreement matures in August 2011. At that time, the agreement will
terminate and all outstanding amounts thereunder will be due and payable.
The Credit Agreement imposes certain requirements, including: a prohibition against distribution to
unitholders if, before or after the distribution, a potential default or an event of default as
defined in the agreement would occur; limitations on our ability to incur debt, make loans, acquire
other companies, change the nature of our business, enter a merger or consolidation, or sell
assets; and covenants that require maintenance of a specified EBITDA to interest expense ratio and
debt to EBITDA ratio. If an event of default exists under the agreement, the lenders will be able
to accelerate the maturity of the debt and exercise other rights and remedies.
Senior Notes Due 2015
Our senior notes maturing March 1, 2015 are registered with the SEC and bear interest at 6.25% (the
Senior Notes). The Senior Notes are unsecured and impose certain restrictive covenants,
including
- 11 -
limitations on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, make investments, sell
assets, incur certain liens, pay distributions, enter into transactions with affiliates, and enter
into mergers. At any time when the Senior Notes are rated investment grade by both Moodys and
Standard & Poors and no default or event of default exists, we will not be subject to many of the
foregoing covenants. Additionally, we have certain redemption rights under the Senior Notes.

Interest Rate Risk Management
As of June 30, 2008, we have two interest rate swap contracts.
We entered into an interest rate swap to hedge our exposure to the cash flow risk caused by the
effects of LIBOR changes on the $171.0 million Credit Agreement advance that we used to finance our
purchase of the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets from Holly. This interest rate swap effectively
converts our $171.0 million LIBOR based debt to fixed rate debt having an interest rate of 3.74%
plus an applicable margin, currently 1.75%, that results in a June 30, 2008 effective interest rate
of 5.49%. The maturity of this swap contract is February 28, 2013. We intend to renew our Credit
Agreement prior to its expiration in August 2011 and continue to finance the $171.0 million balance
until the swap matures.
Under the provisions of SFAS No. 133, we have designated this interest rate swap as a cash flow
hedge. Based on our assessment of effectiveness using the change in variable cash flows method, we
have determined that this interest rate swap is effective in offsetting the variability in interest
payments on our $171.0 million variable rate debt resulting from changes in LIBOR. Under hedge
accounting, we adjust our cash flow hedge on a quarterly basis to its fair value with a
corresponding offset to accumulated other comprehensive income. Also on a quarterly basis, we
measure hedge effectiveness by comparing the present value of the cumulative change in the expected
future interest to be paid or received on the variable leg of our swap against the expected future
interest payments on our $171.0 million variable rate debt. Any ineffectiveness is reclassified
from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense. As of June 30, 2008, we had no
ineffectiveness on our cash flow hedge.
We also have an interest rate swap contract that effectively converts interest expense associated
with $60.0 million of our 6.25% Senior Notes from a fixed to a variable rate. Under this swap
contract, interest on the $60.0 million notional amount is computed using the three-month LIBOR
plus an applicable margin of 1.1575%, which equaled an effective interest rate of 3.84% at June 30,
2008. The maturity of the swap contract is March 1, 2015, matching the maturity of the Senior
Notes.
This interest rate swap has been designated as a fair value hedge and meets the requirements to
assume no ineffectiveness under the provisions of SFAS No. 133. Accordingly, we use the shortcut
method of accounting as prescribed under SFAS No. 133. Under this method, we adjust the carrying
value of the swap to its fair value on a quarterly basis, with an offsetting entry to our Senior
Notes, effectively adjusting the carrying value of $60.0 million of principal on the Senior Notes
to its fair value.
- 12 -
We record interest expense equal to the variable rate payments under the swaps. Receipts under the
swap agreements are recorded as a reduction of interest expense.

Note 6: Employees, Retirement and Benefit Plans
Employees who provide direct services to us are employed by Holly Logistic Services, L.L.C., a
Holly subsidiary. Their costs, including salaries, bonuses, payroll taxes, benefits, and other
direct costs, are charged to us monthly under certain provisions of the Omnibus Agreement that we
entered into with Holly in July 2004. These employees participate in the retirement and benefit
plans of Holly. Our share of retirement and benefits costs was $0.6 million and $0.4 million for
the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $1.0 million and $0.8 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
We have adopted a Long-Term Incentive Plan for employees, consultants and non-employee directors
who perform services for us. The Long-Term Incentive Plan consists of four components: restricted
units, performance units, unit options and unit appreciation rights.
On June 30, 2008, we had two types of equity-based compensation, which are described below. The
compensation cost charged against income for these plans was $0.5 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 and $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. It
is currently our policy to purchase units in the open market instead of issuing new units for
settlement of restricted unit grants. At June 30, 2008, 350,000 units were authorized to be
granted under the equity-based compensation plans, of which 240,174 had not yet been granted.
- 13 -
Restricted Units
Under our Long-Term Incentive Plan, we grant restricted units to selected employees and directors
who perform services for us, with vesting generally over a period of one to five years. Certain
restricted units granted to our directors vest quarterly. Although full ownership of the units
does not transfer to the recipients until the units vest, the recipients have distribution and
voting rights on these units from the date of grant. The vesting for certain key executives is
contingent upon certain earnings per unit targets being realized. The fair value of each unit of
restricted unit awards was measured at the market price as of the date of grant and is being
amortized over the vesting period, including the units issued to the key executives, as we expect
those units to fully vest.
A summary of restricted unit activity and changes during the six months ended June 30, 2008, is

There were 11,486 restricted units having an intrinsic value of $0.4 million and a fair value of
$0.5 million that were vested and transferred to recipients during the six months ended June 30,
2008. As of June 30, 2008, there was $0.9 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related
to nonvested restricted unit grants. That cost is expected to be recognized over a
weighted-average period of 1.1 years.
Performance Units
Under our Long-Term Incentive Plan, we grant performance units to selected executives and employees
who perform services for us. These performance units are payable upon meeting the performance
criteria over a service period, and generally vest over a period of three years. The amount
payable under the initial performance grant of 1,514 units in 2005 is based upon our unit price and
upon our total unitholder return during the requisite period as compared to the total unitholder
return of a selected peer group of partnerships. The amount payable under all other performance
unit grants is based upon the growth in distributions per limited partner unit during the requisite
period.
We granted 14,337 performance units to certain officers in March 2008. These units will vest over
a three-year performance period ending December 31, 2010, and are payable in HEP common units. The
number of units actually earned will be based on the growth of distributions to limited partners
over the performance period, and can range from 50% to 150% of the number of performance units
issued. The fair value of these performance units is based on the grant date closing unit price of
$40.54 and will apply to the number of units ultimately awarded.

There were 1,514 performance units having an intrinsic value of $0.1 million and a fair value of
$0.1 million that were vested and transferred to recipients during the six months ended June 30,
2008. Based on the weighted average fair value at June 30, 2008 of $42.10 there was $1.1 million

expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years.
Note 7: Significant Customers
All revenues are domestic revenues, of which over 90% are currently generated from our three
largest customers: Holly, Alon and BP Plc (BP). The major concentration of our petroleum
products pipeline systems revenue is derived from activities conducted in the southwest United
States. The following table presents the percentage of total revenues generated by each of these
three customers:

Note 8: Related Party Transactions
Holly
As of June 30, 2008, we serve Hollys refineries in New Mexico and Utah under three 15-year
pipeline and terminal agreements.
In connection with our purchase of the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets from Holly on February
29, 2008, we entered into the 15-year Holly CPTA. Under the Holly CPTA, Holly agreed to transport
and store volumes of crude oil on the crude pipelines and tankage facilities that at the agreed
rates will initially result in minimum annual revenues to us of $25.3 million. The agreed upon
tariffs on the crude pipelines will be adjusted each year at a rate equal to the percentage change
in the PPI but will not decrease as a result of a decrease in the PPI. Additionally, Holly amended
the Omnibus Agreement to provide $7.5 million of indemnification for environmental noncompliance
and remediation liabilities associated with the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets that occurred or
existed prior to our acquisition for a period of up to fifteen years.
We also have an agreement that relates to the pipelines and terminals contributed by Holly to us at
the time of our initial public offering and expires in 2019 (the Holly PTA). Our third agreement
with Holly relates to the Intermediate Pipelines acquired from Holly in July 2005 and expires in
2020 (the Holly IPA). The substantial majority of our business is devoted to providing
transportation and terminalling services to Holly. The minimum revenue commitments under the Holly
PTA and the Holly IPA increase each year at a rate equal to the percentage change in PPI, but will
not decrease as a result of a decrease in the PPI.
Following the July 1, 2008 PPI rate adjustment, the volume commitment by Holly under the Holly PTA
will produce at least $41.2 million of revenue for the twelve months ending June 30, 2009. Under
the Holly IPA, Holly agreed to transport volumes of intermediate products on the Intermediate
Pipelines that following the July 1, 2008 PPI rate adjustment, will result in minimum funds to us
of $13.3 million for the twelve months ending June 30, 2009.
Under the Holly PTA and Holly IPA, if Holly fails to meet its minimum volume commitments in any
quarter, it is required to pay us in cash the amount of any shortfall by the last day of the month
following the end of the quarter. A shortfall payment may be applied as a credit in the following
four quarters after Hollys minimum obligations are met.
- 15 -
In October 2007, we entered into an agreement with Holly that amends the Holly PTA under which we
have agreed to expand our refined products pipeline system between Artesia, New Mexico and El Paso,
Texas (the South System). The expansion of the South System will include replacing 85 miles of
8-inch pipe with 12-inch pipe, adding 150,000 barrels of refined product storage at our El Paso
Terminal, improving existing pumps, adding a tie-in to the Kinder Morgan pipeline to Tucson and
Phoenix, Arizona,
and making related modifications. The cost of this project is estimated to be $48.3 million.
Currently, we are expecting to complete this project by January 2009
Under certain provisions of the Omnibus Agreement that we entered with Holly in July 2004 and that
expires in 2019, we pay Holly an annual administrative fee for the provision by Holly or its
affiliates of various general and administrative services to us. Effective March 1, 2008, the
annual fee was increased from $2.1 million to $2.3 million to cover additional general and
administrative services attributable to the operations of our Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets.
This fee does not include the salaries of pipeline and terminal personnel or the cost of their
employee benefits, such as 401(k), pension and health insurance benefits, which are separately
charged to us by Holly. We also reimburse Holly and its affiliates for direct expenses they incur
on our behalf.
In consideration for Hollys assistance in obtaining our joint venture opportunity in a new 95-mile
intrastate pipeline system (the SLC Pipeline) now under construction by Plains All American
Pipeline, L.P. (Plains), we will pay Holly a $2.5 million finders fee upon the closing of our
investment in the joint venture with Plains. See Note 11 for further information on this proposed
joint venture.
|
|
Pipeline, terminal and tankage revenues received from Holly were $20.1 million and $16.4
million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $38.5 million and
$30.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. These amounts
include the revenues received under the Holly PTA, Holly IPA and Holly CPTA. |
|
|
|
Holly charged general and administrative services under the Omnibus Agreement of $0.6
million and $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and
$1.1 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. |
|
|
|
We reimbursed Holly for costs of employees supporting our operations of $3.5 million and
$2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $6.1 million
and $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. |
|
|
|
Holly reimbursed us zero and $24,000 for certain costs paid on their behalf for the three
months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and zero and $98,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. |
|
|
|
We distributed $6.4 million and $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and
2007, respectively, to Holly as regular distributions on its subordinated units, common units
and general partner interest. We distributed $12.4 million and $11.1 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. |
|
|
|
Our accounts receivable from Holly were $8.6 million and $5.7 million at June 30, 2008 and
December 31, 2007, respectively. |
|
|
|
Holly failed to meet its minimum volume commitment for each of the twelve quarters since
inception of the Holly IPA. We have charged Holly $5.7 million for these shortfalls to date,
$0.9 million and zero of which is included in affiliate accounts receivable at June 30, 2008
and December 31, 2007, respectively. |
|
|
|
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, our revenues from Holly included $0.2
million and $0.7 million, respectively, of shortfalls billed under the Holly IPA in 2007 as
Holly did not exceed its minimum volume commitment in any of the subsequent four quarters.
Deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007,
includes $1.6 million and $1.1 million, respectively, relating to the Holly IPA. It is
possible that Holly may not exceed its |
- 16 -
|
|
minimum obligations under the Holly IPA to allow Holly
to receive credit for any of the $1.6 million deferred at June 30, 2008. |
BP
We have a 70% ownership interest in Rio Grande and BP owns the other 30%. Due to the ownership
interest and resulting consolidation, BP is a related party to us.
|
|
BPs agreement to ship on the Rio Grande pipeline expired on March 31, 2008. Rio Grande is
currently serving multiple shippers on the pipeline. We recorded revenues from them of $2.2
million and $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and
$4.9 million and $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. |
|
|
|
Rio Grande paid distributions to BP of $0.9 million and $0.5 million for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. |
|
|
|
Included in our accounts receivable trade at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 were
$0.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, which represented the receivable balance of Rio
Grande from BP. |
Alon
We have a 15-year pipelines and terminals agreement with Alon (the Alon PTA), expiring in 2020,
under which Alon has agreed to transport on our pipelines and throughput through our terminals
volumes of refined products that results in a minimum level of annual revenue. The agreed upon
tariffs are increased or decreased annually at a rate equal to the percentage change in PPI, but
not below the initial tariff rate. Following the March 1, 2008 PPI rate adjustment, Alons total
minimum commitment for the twelve months ending February 28,
2009 is $22.0 million.
Alon became a related party when it acquired all of our Class B subordinated units in connection
with our acquisition of assets from them on February 28, 2005.
|
|
We recognized $1.5 million and $6.2 million of revenues for pipeline transportation and
terminalling services under the Alon PTA and $1.8 million and $1.8 million under a pipeline
capacity lease for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. We recognized
$4.9 million and $10.7 million of revenues for pipeline transportation and terminal services
under the Alon PTA and $3.6 million and $3.5 million under a pipeline capacity lease for the
six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. |
|
|
|
We paid $0.7 million to Alon for distributions on our Class B subordinated units for the
three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, and $1.4 million and $1.3 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. |
|
|
|
Included in our accounts receivable trade at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 were
$6.1 million and $3.5 million, respectively, which represented the receivable balance from
Alon. |
|
|
|
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, our revenues from Alon included $0.5
million and $1.3 million, respectively, of shortfalls billed under the Alon PTA in 2007 as
Alon did not exceed its minimum revenue obligation in any of the subsequent four quarters.
Deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007
includes $8.9 million and $2.6 million, respectively, relating to the Alon PTA. It is
possible that Alon may not exceed its minimum obligations under the Alon PTA to allow Alon to
receive credit for any of the $8.9 million deferred at June 30, 2008. |

Note 9: Partners Equity, Allocations and Cash Distributions
Issuances of units
As partial consideration for our purchase of the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets, we issued
217,497 of our common units having a fair value of $9.0 million to Holly. Additionally, Holly
purchased an additional 2,503 of our common units for $0.1 million and HEP Logistics Holdings,
L.P., our general partner, contributed $0.2 million as an additional capital contribution in order
to maintain its 2% general partner interest.
Holly currently holds 7,000,000 of our subordinated units and 290,000 of our common units, which
constitutes a 46% ownership interest in us, including the 2% general partner interest.
The Holly-owned subordinated units have the right to receive distributions of available cash from
operating surplus in an amount equal to the minimum quarterly distribution of $0.50 per quarter,
plus any arrearages in the payment of the minimum quarterly distribution on the common units from
prior quarters, before any distributions of available cash from operating surplus may be made on
the subordinated units. The purpose of the subordinated units is to increase the likelihood that
cash is available for common unit distributions during the subordination period. The subordination
period will extend until the first day of any quarter beginning after June 30, 2009 that each of
the following tests are met: distributions of available cash from operating surplus on each of the
outstanding common units and subordinated units equaled or exceeded the minimum quarterly
distribution for each of the three consecutive, non-overlapping four-quarter periods immediately
preceding that date; the adjusted operating surplus (as defined in its partnership agreement)
generated during each of the three consecutive, non-overlapping four-quarter periods immediately
preceding that date equaled or exceeded the sum of the minimum quarterly distributions on all of
the outstanding common units and subordinated units during those periods on a fully diluted basis
and the related distribution on the 2% general partner interest during those periods; and there are
no arrearages in payment of the minimum quarterly distribution on the common units. If the
unitholders remove the general partner without cause, the subordination period may end before
June 30, 2009. The Holly-owned subordinated units may convert to common units on a one-for-one
basis when certain conditions are met. The partnership agreement sets forth the calculation to be
used to determine the amount and priority of cash distributions that the common unitholders,
subordinated unitholders and general partner will receive.
Under our registration statement filed with the SEC using a shelf registration process, we may
offer from time to time up to $800.0 million of our securities through one or more prospectus
supplements that would describe, among other things, the specific amounts, prices and terms of any
securities offered and how the proceeds would be used. Any proceeds from the sale of securities
would be used for general business purposes, which may include, among other things, funding
acquisitions of assets or businesses, working capital, capital expenditures, investments in
subsidiaries, the retirement of existing debt and/or the repurchase of common units or other
securities.
Allocations of Net Income
Net income is allocated between limited partners and the general partner interest in accordance
with the provisions of the partnership agreement. Net income allocated to the general partner
includes any incentive distributions declared in the period. After the amount of incentive
distributions is allocated to the general partner, the remaining net income for the period is
generally allocated to the partners based on their weighted average ownership percentage during the
period.
Cash Distributions
We consider regular cash distributions to unitholders on a quarterly basis, although there is no
assurance as to the future cash distributions since they are dependent upon future earnings, cash
flows, capital
requirements, financial condition and other factors. Our Credit Agreement prohibits us from making
cash
- 18 -
distributions if any potential default or event of default, as defined in the Credit
Agreement, occurs or would result from the cash distribution.
Within 45 days after the end of each quarter, we will distribute all of our available cash (as
defined in our partnership agreement) to unitholders of record on the applicable record date. The
amount of available cash generally is all cash on hand at the end of the quarter; less the amount
of cash reserves established by our general partner to provide for the proper conduct of our
business, comply with applicable law, any of our debt instruments, or other agreements; or provide
funds for distributions to our unitholders and to our general partner for any one or more of the
next four quarters; plus all cash on hand on the date of determination of available cash for the
quarter resulting from working capital borrowings made after the end of the quarter. Working
capital borrowings are generally borrowings that are made under our revolving Credit Agreement and
in all cases are used solely for working capital purposes or to pay distributions to partners.
We make distributions of available cash from operating surplus for any quarter during any
subordination period in the following manner: firstly, 98% to the common unitholders, pro rata, and
2% to the general partner, until we distribute for each outstanding common unit an amount equal to
the minimum quarterly distribution for that quarter; secondly, 98% to the common unitholders, pro
rata, and 2% to the general partner, until we distribute for each outstanding common unit an amount
equal to any arrearages in payment of the minimum quarterly distribution on the common units for
any prior quarters during the subordination period; thirdly, 98% to the subordinated unitholders,
pro rata, and 2% to the general partner, until we distribute for each subordinated unit an amount
equal to the minimum quarterly distribution for that quarter; and thereafter, cash in excess of the
minimum quarterly distributions is distributed to the unitholders and the general partner based on
the percentages below.
The general partner, HEP Logistics Holdings, L.P., is entitled to incentive distributions if the
amount we distribute with respect to any quarter exceeds specified target levels shown below:

On July 25, 2008, we announced a cash distribution for the second quarter of 2008 of $0.745 per
unit. The distribution is payable on all common, subordinated, and general partner units and will
be paid August 14, 2008 to all unitholders of record on August 5, 2008. The aggregate amount of
the distribution will be $13.2 million, including $0.8 million paid to the general partner as an
incentive distribution.

As a master limited partnership, we distribute our available cash which has historically exceeded
our net income because depreciation and amortization expense represents a non-cash charge against
income. The result is a decline in partners equity since our regular quarterly distributions
exceed our quarterly net income.
Note 10: Supplemental Guarantor/Non-Guarantor Financial Information
Obligations of Holly Energy Partners, L.P. (Parent) under the 6.25% Senior Notes have been
jointly and severally guaranteed by each of its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries
(Guarantor Subsidiaries). These guarantees are full and unconditional. Rio Grande
(Non-Guarantor), in which we have a 70% ownership interest, is the only subsidiary that has not
guaranteed these obligations.
The following financial information presents condensed consolidating balance sheets, statements of
income, and statements of cash flows of the Parent, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the
Non-Guarantor. The information has been presented as if the Parent accounted for its ownership in
the Guarantor Subsidiaries, and the Guarantor Subsidiaries accounted for the ownership of the
Non-Guarantor, using the equity method of accounting.

Note 11: Proposed Joint Ventures
In November 2007, we executed a definitive agreement with Plains to acquire a 25% joint venture
interest in a new 95-mile intrastate pipeline system now under construction by Plains for the
shipment of up to 120,000 bpd of crude oil into the Salt Lake City area. Under the agreement, the
SLC Pipeline will be owned by a joint venture company that will be owned 75% by Plains and 25% by
us. We expect to purchase our 25% interest in the joint venture in late 2008 when the SLC Pipeline
is expected to become fully operational. The SLC Pipeline will allow various refiners in the Salt
Lake City area, including Hollys Woods Cross refinery, to ship crude oil into the Salt Lake City
area from the Utah terminus of the Frontier Pipeline as well as crude oil from Wyoming and Utah
that is currently flowing on Plains Rocky Mountain Pipeline. The total cost of our investment in
the SLC Pipeline is expected to be $28 million, including the $2.5 million finders fee that is
payable to Holly upon the closing of our investment in the SLC Pipeline.
On January 31, 2008, we entered into an option agreement with Holly granting us an option to
purchase all of Hollys equity interests in a joint venture pipeline currently under construction.
The pipeline will be capable of transporting refined petroleum products from Salt Lake City, Utah
to Las Vegas, Nevada (the UNEV Pipeline). Holly currently owns 75% of the equity interests in
the UNEV Pipeline. Under this agreement, we have an option to purchase Hollys equity interests in
the UNEV Pipeline, effective for a 180-day period commencing when the UNEV Pipeline becomes
operational, at a purchase price equal to Hollys investment in the joint venture pipeline plus
interest at 7% per annum.

HOLLY ENERGY PARTNERS, L.P.
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
This Item 2, including but not limited to the sections on Results of Operations and Liquidity
and Capital Resources, contains forward-looking statements. See Forward-Looking Statements at
the beginning of Part I.
OVERVIEW
Holly Energy Partners, L.P. (HEP) is a Delaware limited partnership. We own and operate
substantially all of the petroleum product and crude oil pipeline, tankage and terminalling assets
that support the Holly Corporation (Holly) refining and marketing operations in west Texas, New
Mexico, Utah, Idaho and Arizona and a 70% interest in Rio Grande Pipeline Company (Rio Grande).
HEP is currently 46% owned by Holly.
We operate a system of petroleum product and crude gathering pipelines in Texas, New Mexico,
Oklahoma and Utah, distribution terminals in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Idaho and Washington
and refinery tankage in New Mexico and Utah. We generate revenues by charging tariffs for
transporting petroleum products and crude oil through our pipelines and by charging fees for
terminalling petroleum products and other hydrocarbons, and storing and providing other services at
our storage tanks and terminals. We do not take ownership of products that we transport or
terminal; therefore, we are not directly exposed to changes in commodity prices.
On February 29, 2008, we acquired pipeline and tankage assets from Holly (the Crude Pipelines and
Tankage Assets) for $180.0 million. The Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets primarily consist of
crude oil trunk lines and gathering lines, product and crude oil pipelines and tankage that service
Hollys Navajo and Woods Cross Refineries and a leased jet fuel terminal. Additional information
on this transaction is provided under Liquidity and Capital Resources.
For the six months ended June 30, 2008, our revenues were $54.1 million and our net income was
$11.6 million. Our revenues and net income for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were $51.0
million and $18.4 million, respectively. Our total operating costs and expenses for the six months
ended June 30, 2008 were $32.7 million compared to $25.8 million for the six months ended June 30,
2007.
Agreements with Holly Corporation
As of June 30, 2008, we serve Hollys refineries in New Mexico and Utah under three 15-year
pipeline, tankage and terminal agreements.
In connection with our purchase of the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets from Holly on February
29, 2008, we entered into a 15-year crude pipelines and tankage agreement with Holly (the Holly
CPTA). Under the Holly CPTA, Holly agreed to transport and store volumes of crude oil on the
crude pipelines and tankage facilities that, at the agreed rates, will initially result in minimum
annual revenues to us of $25.3 million. The agreed upon tariffs on the crude pipelines will be
adjusted each year at a rate equal to the percentage change in the producer price index (PPI) but
will not decrease as a result of a decrease in the PPI. Additionally, Holly amended our omnibus
agreement (the Omnibus Agreement) to provide $7.5 million of indemnification for environmental
noncompliance and remediation liabilities associated with the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets
that occurred or existed prior to our acquisition for a period of up to fifteen years.
We also have an agreement that relates to the pipelines and terminals contributed by Holly to us at
the time of our initial public offering and expires in 2019 (the Holly PTA). Our third agreement
with Holly relates to the Intermediate Pipelines acquired from Holly in July 2005 and expires in
2020 (the Holly IPA). The substantial majority of our business is devoted to providing
transportation, storage and terminalling services to Holly. Following the July 1, 2008 rate
adjustment for the increased producer price index, the minimum volume commitment by Holly under the
Holly PTA will
produce at least $41.2 million
- 26 -
of revenue for the twelve months ending June 30, 2009. Under the
Holly IPA, Holly agreed to transport volumes of intermediate products on the intermediate pipelines
that, following the July 1, 2008 PPI adjustment, will result in minimum funds to us of $13.3
million for the twelve months ended June 30, 2009. If Holly fails to meet its minimum volume
commitments in any quarter, it will be required to pay us in cash the amount of any shortfall by
the last day of the month following the end of the quarter. A shortfall payment may be applied as
a credit in the following four quarters after Hollys minimum obligations are met.
In October 2007, we entered into an agreement with Holly that amends the Holly PTA under which we
have agreed to expand our refined products pipeline system between Artesia, New Mexico and El Paso,
Texas (the South System). The expansion of the South System will include replacing 85 miles of
8-inch pipe with 12-inch pipe, adding 150,000 barrels of refined product storage at our El Paso
Terminal, improving existing pumps, adding a tie-in to the Kinder Morgan pipeline to Tucson and
Phoenix, Arizona, and making related modifications. The cost of this project is estimated to be
$48.3 million. Currently, we are expecting to complete this project by January 2009
Under certain provisions of the Omnibus Agreement that we entered into with Holly in July 2004 and
expires in 2019, we pay Holly an annual administrative fee for the provision by Holly or its
affiliates of various general and administrative services to us. Effective March 1, 2008, the
annual fee was increased from $2.1 million to $2.3 million to cover additional general and
administrative services attributable to the operations of our Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets.
This fee does not include the salaries of pipeline and terminal personnel or the cost of their
employee benefits, such as 401(k), pension and health insurance benefits, which are separately
charged to us by Holly. We also reimburse Holly and its affiliates for direct expenses they incur
on our behalf.

Net income is allocated between limited partners and the general partner interest in
accordance with the provisions of the partnership agreement. Net income allocated to the
general partner includes any incentive distributions declared in the period. Incentive
distributions of $0.7 million and $0.5 million were declared during the three months ended
June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $1.4 million and $1.0 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The net income applicable to the
limited partners is divided by the weighted average limited partner units outstanding in
computing the net income per unit applicable to limited partners. |
|

|
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is calculated
as net income plus (i) interest expense, net of interest income and (ii) depreciation and
amortization. EBITDA is not a calculation based upon U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles (U.S. GAAP). 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 compliance with financial covenants. |

Distributable cash flow is not a calculation based upon U.S. GAAP. However, the
amounts included in the calculation are derived from amounts separately presented in our
consolidated financial statements, with the exception of maintenance capital expenditures.
Distributable cash flow should not be considered in isolation or 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. Distributable cash flow is
not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Distributable
cash flow is presented here because it is a widely accepted financial indicator used by
investors to compare partnership performance. We believe that this measure provides
investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of our assets and the cash
our business is generating. |

The amounts reported for the six months ended June 30, 2008 include volumes transported
on the crude pipelines for the period from March 1, 2008 through June 30, 2008 only.
Volumes shipped during the months of March through June 2008 averaged 133.1 thousand
barrels per day (mbpd). For the six months ended June 30, 2008, crude pipeline volumes
are based on volumes for the months of March through June, averaged over the 182 days in
the first six months of 2008. Under the Holly CPTA, fees are based on volumes transported
on each pipeline component comprising the crude pipeline system (the crude oil gathering
pipelines and the crude oil trunk lines). Accordingly, volumes transported on the crude
pipelines represent the sum of volumes transported on both pipeline components. In cases
where volumes are transported over both components of the crude pipeline system, such
volumes are reflected twice in the total crude oil pipeline volumes. |

As a master limited partnership, we distribute our available cash which historically has exceeded
our net income because depreciation and amortization expense represents a non-cash charge against
income. The result is a decline in partners equity since our regular quarterly distributions
exceed our quarterly net income.

Results of Operations Three Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30,
2007
Summary
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $3.8 million, a $7.2 million decrease
compared to the same period in 2007. This decrease was due principally to the effects of limited
production at Alons Big Spring Refinery resulting from an explosion and fire in February,
production downtime at Hollys Navajo Refinery during the second quarter of 2008, a decrease in
previously deferred revenue realized, and an increase in operating costs and expenses and interest
expense. These factors were partially offset by revenues attributable to our crude pipeline assets
that were acquired in the first quarter of 2008. Revenue of $5.6 million relating to deficiency
payments associated with certain transportation contracts was deferred during the three months
ended June 30, 2008. Such revenue will be recognized in future periods either as payment for
shipments in excess of minimum required levels or when shipping rights expire unused after a
twelve-month period.
On February 18, 2008, Alon experienced an explosion and fire at its Big Spring refinery that
resulted in the shutdown of production. In early April Alon reopened its Big Spring refinery and
has resumed production which is currently running at about one-half of refinery capacity. Alon has
announced that it plans to complete repairs and be back at full capacity in the third quarter of
2008. Lost production and reduced operations attributable to this incident resulted in a decrease
in third party shipments on our refined product pipelines during the first six months of 2008.
Under our pipelines and terminals agreement with Alon, Alon has committed to a level of product
shipments that generally results in a minimum level of revenue. The amount billed to Alon for any
shortfalls with respect to these contractual commitments is recorded as deferred revenue and later
included in revenue and net income when earned and no longer subject to recapture. Increases in
deferred revenue as a result of such shortfalls are included in distributable cash flow when the
shortfall occurs.
Additionally, during the 2008 second quarter, Hollys Navajo Refinery experienced approximately 10
days of unplanned downtime as a result of unexpected repairs that further contributed to reduced
volume shipments on our pipeline systems.
Revenues
Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were $26.8 million, a $0.4 million decrease
compared to the three months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease was due to the effects of limited
production at Alons Big Spring Refinery resulting from an explosion and fire in February,
production downtime at Hollys Navajo Refinery during the second quarter of 2008 and a decrease in
previously deferred revenue realized. These decreases were partially offset by revenues
attributable to our crude pipeline assets that were acquired in the first quarter of 2008.
Revenues from our refined product pipelines were $14.6 million, a decrease of $4.2 million compared
to the second quarter of 2007. This decrease was due to a decline in refined product pipeline
shipments by refineries utilizing our refined product pipeline system during the second quarter and
a $0.9 million decrease in previously deferred revenue realized. These decreases were partially
offset by the effect of the annual tariff increase on refined product shipments. Shipments on our
refined product pipeline system decreased to an average of 100.2 mbpd compared to 147.1 mbpd for
the same period last year.
Revenues from our intermediate pipelines were $2.5 million, a decrease of $1.6 million compared to
the second quarter of 2007. This decrease was due to a decline in volumes shipped on our
intermediate pipelines resulting from downtime at Hollys Navajo Refinery and a $1.0 million
decrease in previously deferred revenue realized. These decreases were partially offset by the
effect of the annual tariff increase on intermediate pipeline shipments. Shipments on our
intermediate product pipeline system decreased to an average of 51.9 mbpd compared to 68.4 mbpd for
the same period last year.
Revenues from our crude pipelines were $6.6 million; second quarter shipments averaged 130.6 mbpd.
- 31 -
Revenues from terminal, tankage and truck loading rack fees were $3.2 million, a decrease of $1.1
million compared to the second quarter of 2007. Refined products terminalled in our facilities
decreased to an average of 124.5 mbpd compared to 176.4 mbpd for the same period last year.
Operating Costs
Operations expense for the three months ended June 30, 2008 increased by $1.8 million compared to
the three months ended June 30, 2007. This increase in expense was principally due to the
operations of our crude pipelines commencing March 1, 2008 and increased pipeline maintenance and
payroll costs.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2008 increased by $2.9 million
compared to the three months ended June 30, 2007, due principally to depreciation and amortization
attributable to our newly acquired crude pipelines, tankage assets and transportation agreement.
General and Administrative
General and administrative costs for the three months ended June 30, 2008 increased by $0.1 million
compared to the three months ended June 30, 2007.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2008 totaled $5.2 million, an increase of $1.8
million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2007. This increase is due principally to
interest attributable to advances from our revolving credit agreement that were used to finance our
crude pipeline asset purchase in the first quarter as well as capital projects. For the three
months ended June 30, 2008, our aggregate effective interest rate was 5.6% compared to 7.3% for the
same period last year.
Minority Interest in Earnings of Rio Grande
The minority interest related to the 30% of Rio Grande that we do not own reduced our income by
$0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $0.2 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2007.
State Income Tax
State income taxes were less than $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.
- 32 -
Results of Operations Six Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2007
Summary
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $11.6 million, a $6.8 million decrease
compared to the same period in 2007. This decrease was due principally to the effects of limited
production at Alons Big Spring Refinery resulting from an explosion and fire in February, a
decrease in intermediate pipeline revenues as a result of downtime at Hollys Navajo Refinery in
the second quarter, a decrease in previously deferred revenue realized and an increase in operating
costs and expenses and interest expense. These factors were partially offset by revenues
attributable to our crude pipeline assets that were acquired in the first quarter of 2008. Revenue
of $8.7 million relating to deficiency payments associated with certain transportation contracts
was deferred during the six months ended June 30, 2008. Such revenue will be recognized in future
periods either as payment for shipments in excess of minimum required levels or when shipping
rights expire unused after a twelve-month period.
Revenues
Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $54.1 million, an increase of $3.0
million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007. This increase was principally due to
revenues attributable to our crude pipeline assets acquired in the first quarter of 2008. This
increase was partially offset by a decrease in third party shipments, a decrease in shipments on
our intermediate pipeline system and a decrease in previously deferred revenue realized.
Revenues from our refined product pipelines were $32.0 million, a decrease of $3.9 million compared
to the six months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease was due to a decline in third party shipments
as a result of reduced production and downtime following an explosion at Alons Big Spring refinery
during the first quarter. This decrease was offset partially by a year-to-date increase in
affiliate shipments and the effect of the annual tariff increase on refined product shipments.
Overall shipments on our refined product pipeline system decreased to an average of 115.2 mbpd
compared to 142.3 mbpd for the same period last year.
Revenues from our intermediate pipelines were $6.0, a decrease of $1.0 million compared to the six
months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease was due to the effects of downtime at Hollys Navajo
Refinery during the second quarter of 2008 and a $0.9 million decrease in previously deferred
revenue realized. These decreases were partially offset by the effect of the annual tariff
increase on intermediate pipeline shipments. Shipments on our intermediate product pipeline system
decreased to an average of 59.7 mbpd compared to 64.0 mbpd for the same period last year.
Revenues from our crude pipelines were $8.7 million; for the months of March through June 2008
shipments averaged 133.1 mbpd.
Revenues from terminal, tankage and truck loading rack fees were $7.3 million, a decrease of $0.8
million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007. Refined products terminalled in our
facilities decreased to an average of 144.6 mbpd compared to 171.8 mbpd for the same period last
year.
Operating Costs
Operations expense for the six months ended June 30, 2008 increased by $3.8 million compared to the
six months ended June 30, 2007. This increase in expense was principally due to the operations of
our crude pipelines commencing March 1, 2008 and increased pipeline maintenance and payroll costs.
- 33 -
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended increased by $3.1 million compared to the
six months ended June 30, 2007, due principally to depreciation and amortization attributable to
our newly acquired crude pipelines, tankage assets and transportation agreement.
General and Administrative
General and administrative costs were $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2008 totaled $9.0 million, an increase of $2.3
million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007. This increase is due principally to
interest attributable to advances from our revolving credit agreement that were used to finance our
crude pipeline asset purchase in the first quarter as well as capital projects. For the six months
ended June 30, 2008, our aggregate effective interest rate was 5.4% compared to 7.3% for the same
period last year.
Minority Interest in Earnings of Rio Grande
The minority interest related to the 30% of Rio Grande that we do not own reduced our income by
$0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $0.6 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2007.
State Income Tax
State income taxes were $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and
2007, respectively.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Overview
In February 2008, we amended our $100 million senior secured revolving credit agreement expiring in
August 2011 to increase the size from $100 million to $300 million (the Credit Agreement), which
we used to finance the $171.0 million cash portion of the consideration paid for the Crude
Pipelines and Tankage Assets acquired from Holly. As of June 30, 2008, we had $191.0 million
outstanding under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is available to fund capital
expenditures, acquisitions, and working capital and for general partnership purposes. Advances
under the Credit Agreement that are either designated for working capital or have been used as
interim financing to fund capital expenditures are classified as short-term liabilities. Other
advances under the Credit Agreement are classified as long-term liabilities. During the six months
ended June 30, 2008, we received advances totaling $20.0 million under the Credit Agreement that
were used as interim financing for capital expenditures.
Our senior notes maturing March 1, 2015 are registered with the SEC and bear interest at 6.25% (the
Senior Notes). The Senior Notes are unsecured and impose certain restrictive covenants,
including limitations on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, make investments, sell
assets, incur certain liens, pay distributions, enter into transactions with affiliates, and enter
into mergers.
Under our shelf registration statement, filed September 2, 2005, we may offer from time to time
up to $800.0 million of our securities, through one or more prospectus supplements that would
describe, among other things, the specific amounts, prices and terms of any securities offered and
how the proceeds would be used. Any proceeds from the sale of securities would be used for general
business purposes, which may include, among other things, funding acquisitions of assets or
businesses, working capital, capital expenditures, investments in subsidiaries, the retirement of
existing debt and/or the repurchase of common units or other securities.
- 34 -
We believe our current cash balances, future internally-generated funds and funds available under
our Credit Agreement will provide sufficient resources to meet our working capital liquidity needs
for the foreseeable future. In February and May 2008, we paid regular cash distributions of $0.725
and $0.735,respectively, on all units, an aggregate amount of $25.7 million. Included in these
distributions was an aggregate of $1.4 million paid to the general partner as incentive
distributions, as the distributions per unit exceeded $0.55.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $4.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2008. The
cash flows used for investing activities of $191.0 million exceeded cash flows provided by
operating and financing activities of $23.4 million and $163.6 million, respectively. Working
capital for the six months ended June 30, 2008 decreased by $23.9 million due principally to $20.0
million in interim financing of capital projects.
Cash Flows Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities decreased by $3.1 million from $26.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2007 to $23.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This decrease
is mainly due to a $1.1 million decrease in cash collections from our major customers, resulting
principally from a decrease in third-party revenues, offset by miscellaneous year-over-year changes
in collections and payments.
As discussed above, our major shippers are obligated to make deficiency payments to us if they do
not meet their minimum volume shipping obligations. Certain of these shippers then have the right
to recapture these amounts if future volumes exceed minimum levels. During the first six months of
2008, we received cash payments of $3.7 million under these commitments. We billed $2.1 million
for the first six months of 2007 related to shortfalls that occurred during this period that
expired without recapture and was recognized as revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2008.
Another $5.6 million is included in our accounts receivable at June 30, 2008 related to shortfalls
that occurred in the second quarter of 2008.
Cash Flows Investing Activities
Cash flows used for investing activities increased by $189.4 million from $1.6 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2007 to $191.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Additions to
properties and equipment for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $20.0 million, an increase of
$18.1 million from $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Also during the six months
ended June 30, 2008, we acquired the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets from Holly. The cash
consideration paid upon closing of this purchase was $171.0 million. During the six months ended
June 30, 2007, we received cash proceeds of $0.3 million upon the sale of certain assets.
Cash Flows Financing Activities
Cash flows provided by financing activities were $163.6 million for the six months ended June 30,
2008 compared to cash flows used for financing activities of $24.8 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2007. During the six months ended June 30, 2008, we borrowed $191.0 million under our
credit agreement of which $171.0 million was used to finance the cash portion of the consideration
paid to acquire the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets on February 29, 2008. During the first six
months of 2008, we paid cash distributions on all units and the general partner interest in the
aggregate amount of $25.7 million, an increase of $2.3 million from $23.4 million in distributions
paid during the first six months of 2007. We also paid $0.9 million in minority interest
distributions, an increase in $0.4 million over the six months ended June 30, 2007. Cash paid for
the purchase of units for restricted grants was $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30,
2008, a decrease of $0.4 million from $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Also
for the six months ended June 30, 2008, we paid $0.6 million in deferred financing costs that were
attributable to our amended credit agreement.
Capital Requirements
Our pipeline and terminalling operations are capital intensive, requiring investments to maintain,
expand, upgrade or enhance existing operations and to meet environmental and operational
regulations. Our
- 35 -
capital requirements have consisted of, and are expected to continue to consist of, maintenance
capital expenditures and expansion capital expenditures. Maintenance capital expenditures
represent capital expenditures to replace partially or fully depreciated assets to maintain the
operating capacity of existing assets. Maintenance capital expenditures include expenditures
required to maintain equipment reliability, tankage and pipeline integrity, safety and to address
environmental regulations. Expansion capital expenditures represent capital expenditures to expand
the operating capacity of existing or new assets, whether through construction or acquisition.
Expansion capital expenditures include expenditures to acquire assets to grow our business and to
expand existing facilities, such as projects that increase throughput capacity on our pipelines and
in our terminals. Repair and maintenance expenses associated with existing assets that are minor
in nature and do not extend the useful life of existing assets are charged to operating expenses as
incurred.
Each year the Holly Logistic Services, L.L.C. (HLS) board of directors approves our annual
capital budget, which specifies capital projects that our management is authorized to undertake.
Additionally, at times when conditions warrant or as new opportunities arise, special projects may
be approved. The funds allocated for a particular capital project may be expended over a period of
years, depending on the time required to complete the project. Therefore, our planned capital
expenditures for a given year consist of expenditures approved for capital projects included in the
current years capital budget as well as, in certain cases, expenditures approved for capital
projects in capital budgets for prior years. Our total capital budget for 2008 is $53.7 million.
This consists of budgeted costs for our south system expansion discussed below and other capital
expansion and maintenance projects.
In October 2007, we entered into an agreement with Holly that amends the Holly PTA under which we
have agreed to expand our South System between Artesia, New Mexico and El Paso, Texas. The
expansion of the South System will include replacing 85 miles of 8-inch pipe with 12-inch pipe,
adding 150,000 barrels of refined product storage at our El Paso Terminal, improving existing
pumps, adding a tie-in to the Kinder Morgan pipeline to Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona, and making
related modifications. The cost of this project is estimated to be $48.3 million. Currently, we
are expecting to complete this project by January 2009.
In November 2007, we executed a definitive agreement with Plains All American Pipeline, L.P.
(Plains) to acquire a 25% joint venture interest in a new 95-mile intrastate pipeline system now
under construction by Plains for the shipment of up to 120,000 bpd of crude oil into the Salt Lake
City area (the SLC Pipeline). Under the agreement, the SLC Pipeline will be owned by a joint
venture company that will be owned 75% by Plains and 25% by us. We expect to purchase our 25%
interest in the joint venture in late 2008 when the SLC Pipeline is expected to become fully
operational. The SLC Pipeline will allow various refiners in the Salt Lake City area, including
Hollys Woods Cross refinery, to ship crude oil into the Salt Lake City area from the Utah terminus
of the Frontier Pipeline as well as crude oil from Wyoming and Utah that is currently flowing on
Plains Rocky Mountain Pipeline. The total cost of our investment in the SLC Pipeline is expected
to be $28 million, including a $2.5 million finders fee that is payable to Holly upon the closing
of our investment in the SLC Pipeline.
On January 31, 2008, we entered into an option agreement with Holly, granting us an option to
purchase all of Hollys equity interests in a joint venture pipeline currently under construction.
The pipeline will be capable of transporting refined petroleum products from Salt Lake City, Utah
to Las Vegas, Nevada (the UNEV Pipeline). Holly currently owns 75% of the equity interests in
the UNEV Pipeline. Under this agreement, we have an option to purchase Hollys equity interests in
the UNEV Pipeline, effective for a 180-day period commencing when the UNEV Pipeline becomes
operational, at a purchase price equal to Hollys investment in the joint venture pipeline, plus
interest at 7% per annum. The initial capacity of the pipeline will be 62,000 bpd, with the
capacity for further expansion to 120,000 bpd. The total cost of the pipeline project including
terminals is expected to be $300.0 million. Hollys share of this cost is $225.0 million.
Construction of this project is currently expected to be completed and operational in late 2009.
On July 17, 2008, Holly announced the purchase of Musket Corporations Cedar City, Utah terminal
and rail facilities that will serve as part of the UNEV Pipelines Cedar City Terminal.
We are also studying several other projects that are in various stages of analysis.
- 36 -
We expect that our currently planned expenditures for sustaining and maintenance capital as well as
expenditures for acquisitions and capital development projects such as the UNEV Pipeline, SLC
Pipeline and South System expansion projects described above will be funded with existing cash
balances, cash generated by operations, the sale of additional limited partner units, the issuance
of debt securities and advances under our $300 million senior secured revolving credit agreement
maturing August 2011.
Credit Agreement
In February 2008, we amended our $100 million senior secured revolving credit agreement expiring in
August 2011 to increase the size from $100 million to $300 million, which we used to finance the
$171.0 million cash portion of the consideration paid for the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets
acquired from Holly. Union Bank of California, N.A. is one of the lenders and serves as
administrative agent under this agreement. As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we had
$191.0 million and zero, respectively, outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
The Credit Agreement is available to fund capital expenditures, acquisitions, and working capital
and for general partnership purposes. Advances under the Credit Agreement that are either
designated for working capital or have been used as interim financing to fund capital expenditures
are classified as short-term liabilities. Other advances under the Credit Agreement are classified
as long-term liabilities. In addition, the Credit Agreement is available to fund letters of credit
up to a $50.0 million sub-limit and to fund distributions to unitholders up to a $20.0 million
sub-limit. During the six months ended June 30, 2008, we received advances totaling $20.0 million
under the Credit Agreement that were used as interim financing for capital expenditures.
We have the right to request an increase in the maximum amount of the Credit Agreement, up to
$370.0 million. Such request will become effective if (a) certain conditions specified in the
Credit Agreement are met and (b) existing lenders under the Credit Agreement or other financial
institutions reasonably acceptable to the administrative agent commit to lend such increased
amounts under the agreement.
Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of our assets.
Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement is recourse to HEP Logistics Holdings, L.P., our general
partner, and guaranteed by our wholly-owned subsidiaries.
We may prepay all loans at any time without penalty, except for payment of certain breakage and
related costs. We are required to reduce all working capital borrowings under the Credit Agreement
to zero for a period of at least 15 consecutive days once each twelve-month period prior to the
maturity date of the agreement.
Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement bears interest, at our option, at either (a) the reference
rate as announced by the administrative agent plus an applicable margin (ranging from 0.25% to
1.50%) or (b) at a rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable
margin (ranging from 1.00% to 2.50%). In each case, the applicable margin is based upon the ratio
of our funded debt (as defined in the agreement) to EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization, as defined in the Credit Agreement). We incur a commitment fee on
the unused portion of the Credit Agreement at a rate ranging from 0.20% to 0.50% based upon the
ratio of our funded debt to EBITDA for the four most recently completed fiscal quarters. At June
30, 2008, we are subject to the 0.30% rate on the $109.0 million of the unused commitment on the
Credit Agreement. The agreement matures in August 2011. At that time, the agreement will
terminate and all outstanding amounts thereunder will be due and payable.
The Credit Agreement imposes certain requirements, including: a prohibition against distribution to
unitholders if, before or after the distribution, a potential default or an event of default as
defined in the agreement would occur; limitations on our ability to incur debt, make loans, acquire
other companies, change the nature of our business, enter a merger or consolidation, or sell
assets; and covenants that require maintenance of a specified EBITDA to interest expense ratio and
debt to EBITDA ratio. If an event of default exists under the agreement, the lenders will be able
to accelerate the maturity of the debt and exercise other rights and remedies.
- 37 -
Senior Notes Due 2015
Our Senior Notes mature on March 1, 2015 and bear interest at 6.25%. The Senior Notes are
unsecured and impose certain restrictive covenants, including limitations on our ability to incur
additional indebtedness, make investments, sell assets, incur certain liens, pay distributions,
enter into transactions with affiliates, and enter into mergers. At any time when the Senior Notes
are rated investment grade by both Moodys and Standard & Poors and no default or event of default
exists, we will not be subject to many of the foregoing covenants. Additionally, we have certain
redemption rights under the Senior Notes.

Holly Crude Pipelines and Tankage Transaction
On February 29, 2008, we acquired pipeline and tankage assets from Holly for $180.0 million. The
Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets consist of crude oil trunk lines that deliver crude to Hollys
Navajo Refinery in southeast New Mexico, gathering and connection pipelines located in west Texas
and New Mexico, on-site crude tankage located within the Navajo and Woods Cross refinery complexes,
a jet fuel products pipeline and leased terminal between Artesia and Roswell, New Mexico, and crude
oil and product pipelines that support Hollys Woods Cross Refinery.
The consideration paid for the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets consisted of $171.0 million in
cash and 217,497 of our common units having a fair value of $9.0 million. We financed the $171.0
million cash portion of the consideration through borrowings under our Credit Agreement expiring
August 2011.
The consideration paid for the Crude Pipeline and Tankage Assets was allocated to the individual
assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. In accounting for this acquisition, we
recorded pipeline and terminal assets of $108.0 million and an intangible asset of $72.0 million,
representing the allocated value of the 15-year Holly CPTA. This intangible asset is included in
Transportation agreements, net in our consolidated balance sheets.
Impact of Inflation
Inflation in the United States has been relatively low in recent years and did not have a material
impact on our results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.
A substantial majority of our revenues are generated under long-term contracts that include the
right to increase our rates and minimum revenue guarantees annually for increases in the PPI.
Historically, the PPI has increased an average of 3.7% annually over the past 3 calendar years.

Environmental Matters
Our operation of pipelines, terminals, and associated facilities in connection with the storage and
transportation of refined products and crude oil is subject to stringent and complex federal,
state, and local laws and regulations governing the discharge of materials into the environment, or
otherwise relating to the protection of the environment. As with the industry generally,
compliance with existing and anticipated laws and regulations increases our overall cost of
business, including our capital costs to construct, maintain, and upgrade equipment and facilities.
While these laws and regulations affect our maintenance capital expenditures and net income, we
believe that they do not affect our competitive position in that the operations of our competitors
are similarly affected. We believe that our operations are in substantial compliance with
applicable environmental laws and regulations. However, these laws and regulations, and the
interpretation or enforcement thereof, are subject to frequent change by regulatory authorities,
and we are unable to predict the ongoing cost to us of complying with these laws and regulations or
the future impact of these laws and regulations on our operations. Violation of environmental
laws, regulations, and permits can result in the imposition of significant administrative, civil
and criminal penalties, injunctions, and construction bans or delays. A discharge of hydrocarbons
or hazardous substances into the environment could, to the extent the event is not insured, subject
us to substantial expense, including both the cost to comply with applicable laws and regulations
and claims made by employees, neighboring landowners and other third parties for personal injury
and property damage.
In connection with our acquisition of the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets on February 29, 2008,
Holly amended the Omnibus Agreement to provide $7.5 million of indemnification for environmental
noncompliance and remediation liabilities associated with the newly acquired assets for a period of
up to fifteen years. The Omnibus Agreement also provides environmental indemnification for the
assets transferred to us at the time of our initial public offering in 2004 and the Intermediate
Pipelines acquired in July 2005. The indemnification relates to environmental noncompliance and
remediation liabilities associated with the assets acquired from Holly that occurred or existed
prior to our acquisition. We also have an environmental agreement with Alon with respect to
pre-closing environmental costs and liabilities relating to the pipelines and terminals acquired
from Alon in February 2005.
There are environmental remediation projects that are currently underway relating to certain assets
purchased from Holly Corporation. These remediation projects, including assessment and monitoring
activities are covered by the environmental indemnification discussed above and represent
liabilities of Holly Corporation.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our
consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The
preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect
the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results may
differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We consider the following
policies to be the most critical to understanding the judgments that are involved and the
uncertainties that could impact our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Our significant accounting policies are described in Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Operations Critical Accounting Policies in our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. Certain critical accounting policies that materially
affect the amounts recorded in our consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition,
assessing the possible impairment of certain long-lived assets and assessing contingent liabilities
for probable losses. There have been no changes to these policies in 2008.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157 Fair Value Measurements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements. This standard simplifies and codifies guidance on fair value measurements under
generally accepted accounting principles. This standard defines fair value, establishes a
framework for measuring fair value and prescribes expanded disclosures about fair value
measurements. It also establishes a fair value hierarchy that categorizes inputs used in fair
value measurements into three broad levels. Under this hierarchy, quoted prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities are considered the most reliable evidence of fair value and are
given the highest priority level (level 1). Unobservable inputs are considered the least reliable
and are given the lowest priority level (level 3). We adopted this standard effective January 1,
2008.
We have interest rate swaps that we measure at fair value on a recurring basis using level 2
inputs. See Note 5 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional
information on these swaps.
EITF No. 07-04 Application of the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128, Earnings per
Share, to Master Limited Partnerships
In March 2008, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 07-04, Application
of the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128 to Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs). This
standard provides guidance in the application of the two-class method in computing earnings per
unit to reflect an MLPs contractual obligation to make distributions to the general partner,
limited partners, and incentive distribution rights holder. EITF No. 07-04 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We will
adopt this standard effective January 1, 2009. We are currently evaluating the impact of this
standard on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. EITF 03-6-1 Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based
Transactions Are Participating Securities
In June 2006, the FASB issued FSP No. 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in
Share-Based Transactions Are Participating Securities. This standard provides guidance in
determining whether unvested instruments granted under share-based payment transactions are
participating securities and, therefore, should be included in earnings per share calculations
under the two-class method provided under FASB No. 128, Earnings per Share. FSP No. 03-6-1 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those
fiscal years. We will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2009. We are currently evaluating
the impact of this standard on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
RISK MANAGEMENT
As of June 30, 2008, we have two interest rate swap contracts.
We entered into an interest rate swap to hedge our exposure to the cash flow risk caused by the
effects of LIBOR changes on the $171.0 million Credit Agreement advance that we used to finance our
purchase of the Crude Pipelines and Tankage Assets from Holly. This interest rate swap effectively
converts our $171.0 million LIBOR based debt to fixed rate debt having an interest rate of 3.74%
plus an applicable margin, currently 1.75%, that results in a June 30, 2008 effective interest rate
of 5.49%. The maturity of this swap contract is February 28, 2013. We intend to renew our Credit
Agreement prior to its expiration in August 2011 and continue to finance the $171.0 million balance
until the swap matures.
Under the provisions of SFAS No. 133, we have designated this interest rate swap as a cash flow
hedge. Based on our assessment of effectiveness using the change in variable cash flows method, we
have determined that this interest rate swap is effective in offsetting the variability in interest
payments on our $171.0 million variable rate debt resulting from changes in LIBOR. Under hedge
accounting, we adjust our cash flow hedge on a quarterly basis to its fair value with a
corresponding offset to accumulated other comprehensive income. Also on a quarterly basis, we
measure hedge effectiveness by comparing the present value of the cumulative change in the expected
future interest to be paid or received on the
- 40 -
variable leg of our swap against the expected future interest payments on our $171.0 million
variable rate debt. Any ineffectiveness is reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive
income to interest expense. As of June 30, 2008, we had no ineffectiveness on our cash flow hedge.
We also have an interest rate swap contract that effectively converts interest expense associated
with $60.0 million of our 6.25% Senior Notes from a fixed to a variable rate. Under this swap
contract, interest on the $60.0 million notional amount is computed using the three-month LIBOR
plus an applicable margin of 1.1575%, which equaled an effective interest rate of 3.84% at June 30,
2008. The maturity of the swap contract is March 1, 2015, matching the maturity of the Senior
Notes.
This interest rate swap has been designated as a fair value hedge and meets the requirements to
assume no ineffectiveness under the provisions of SFAS No. 133. Accordingly, we use the shortcut
method of accounting as prescribed under SFAS No. 133. Under this method, we adjust the carrying
value of the swap to its fair value on a quarterly basis, with an offsetting entry to our Senior
Notes, effectively adjusting the carrying value of $60.0 million of principal on the Senior notes
to its fair value.
We record interest expense equal to the variable rate payments under the swaps. Receipts under the
swap agreements are recorded as a reduction of interest expense.

Long-term debt |
The market risk inherent in our debt instruments and positions is the potential change arising from
increases or decreases in interest rates as discussed below.
At June 30, 2008, we had an outstanding principal balance on our unsecured Senior Notes of $185.0
million. By means of our interest rate swap contract, we have effectively converted $60.0 million
of the Senior Notes from a fixed rate to variable rate. For the fixed rate debt portion of $125.0
million, changes in interest rates would generally affect the fair value of the debt, but not our
earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for the variable rate debt portion of $60.0 million, changes
in interest rates would generally not impact the fair value of the debt, but may affect our future
earnings and cash flows. We estimate a hypothetical 10% change in the yield-to-maturity applicable
to our fixed rate debt portion of $125.0 million as of June 30, 2008 would result in a change of
approximately $4.9 million in the fair value of the debt. A hypothetical 10% change in the
interest rate applicable to our variable rate debt portion of $60.0 million would not have a
material effect on our earnings or cash flows.
At June 30, 2008, our cash and cash equivalents included highly liquid investments with a maturity
of three months or less at the time of purchase. Due to the short-term nature of our cash and cash
equivalents, a hypothetical 10% increase in interest rates would not have a material effect on the
fair market value of our portfolio. Since we have the ability to liquidate this portfolio, we do
not expect our operating results or cash flows to be materially affected to any significant degree
by the effect of a sudden change in market interest rates on our investment portfolio.
Our operations are subject to normal hazards of operations, including fire, explosion and
weather-related perils. We maintain various insurance coverages, including business interruption
insurance, subject to certain deductibles. We are not fully insured against certain risks because
such risks are not fully insurable, coverage is unavailable, or premium costs, in our judgment, do
not justify such expenditures.
We have formed a risk management oversight committee that is made up of members from our senior
management. This committee monitors our risk environment and provides direction for activities to
mitigate, to an acceptable level, identified risks that may adversely affect the achievement of our
goals.

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. See Risk
Management under Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations for a discussion of market risk exposures that we have with respect to our cash and
cash equivalents and long-term debt. We utilize derivative instruments to hedge our interest rate
exposure, also discussed under Risk Management.
Since we do not own products shipped on our pipelines or terminalled at our terminal facilities we
do not have market risks associated with commodity prices.
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated, as required by Rule
13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), our disclosure controls
and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by
this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the principal executive officer and
principal financial officer concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures are effective in ensuring that information we are required to disclose in the reports
that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported,
within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule
13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially
affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial
reporting.
