Re: Project Safari

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to (a) the Business Combination Agreement dated of even date herewith by and among The Sinclair Companies, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Wyoming (“Sinclair”), HollyFrontier Corporation, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (“HFC”), and the other parties thereto (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “HFC Sinclair Agreement”), (b) the Contribution Agreement dated of even date herewith by and among Sinclair, Holly Energy Partners, L.P., a limited partnership organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (“HEP” and, together with HFC, the “Parties”, and each of HFC and HEP, individually, a “Party”), and the other parties thereto (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “HEP Sinclair Agreement” and, together with the HFC Sinclair Agreement, the “Sinclair Agreements”), and (c) the Twenty-First Amended and Restated Omnibus Agreement, dated February 8, 2021, by and among HEP, HFC and the other parties thereto (as may be amended from time to time, the “Omnibus Agreement”).

Consummation of the transactions contemplated by each Sinclair Agreement is conditioned upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the other Sinclair Agreement. As a material inducement to each Party to enter into its respective Sinclair Agreement, the Parties are entering into this letter agreement (this “Letter Agreement”) to memorialize certain agreements between HEP and its subsidiaries (the “HEP Group”) and HFC and its subsidiaries (other than members of the HEP Group) (the “HFC Group”). As used in this Letter Agreement, an “Affiliate” of HEP or HFC means members of the HEP Group or the HFC Group, respectively.

The Parties, each intending to be legally bound, hereby agree to the following:

1.    Intercompany Agreements. Contemporaneously with Closing (as defined in the HEP Sinclair Agreement) (the “HEP Closing”), each Party hereby agrees that it shall, and shall cause each of its applicable Affiliates to, execute and deliver amendments to the intercompany agreements by and among members of the HEP Group and the HFC Group (each an “Intercompany Agreement”) identified on Exhibit A hereto to include within the scope thereof the assets to be acquired by HEP pursuant to the HEP Sinclair Agreement (such assets, the “Sinclair Midstream Assets”), in each case, on the terms identified on Exhibit A hereto.

2.    Woods Cross.

(a)    WX Purchase Agreement. If HFC commits to a Woods Cross Refinery Divestiture Action (as defined in the HFC Sinclair Agreement), each Party hereby agrees that it shall, and shall cause each of its applicable Affiliates to, execute and deliver the purchase agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 (the “WX Purchase Agreement”); provided, however, that HEP’s obligation in respect of this Section 2(a) shall be conditioned upon (a) the prior or contemporaneous execution of a definitive agreement with respect to the Woods Cross Refinery Divestiture Action and (b) the closing conditions under the HEP Sinclair Agreement and the HFC Sinclair Agreement having been satisfied or waived. HFC shall cause any Woods Cross Refinery Divestiture Action to be conditioned on, and become effective at or after, the Closing (as defined in the HFC Sinclair Agreement) (the “HFC Closing”). Prior to the execution of the WX Purchase Agreement, HEP shall identify all assets of HEP Woods Cross, L.L.C. (“HEP WX”) which are unrelated to the Woods Cross Refinery (such assets, the “Non-WX Assets”). The Non-WX Assets shall include, without limitation, HEP’s refined products terminal located in Spokane, WA. HEP shall transfer the Non-WX Assets (and all associated liabilities) to an Affiliate of HEP prior to the execution of the WX Purchase Agreement.

(b)    Intercompany Agreement Amendments. Each Party hereby agrees that if the transactions contemplated by the WX Purchase Agreement are consummated (the “WX Closing”), then contemporaneously with the WX Closing, it shall, and shall cause each of its applicable Affiliates to, execute and deliver amendments to the Intercompany Agreements identified on Exhibit B-2 hereto to exclude from the scope thereof the assets that are the subject of the WX Purchase Agreement (the “HEP WX Assets”), in each case, on the terms identified on Exhibit B-2 hereto.

(c)    Intercompany Agreement Terminations. If the conditions in Section 2(b) are met and the Parties and their applicable Affiliates enter into the WX Purchase Agreement, then effective as of the Effective Time (as defined in the WX Purchase Agreement), the Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement (Woods Cross), dated as of October 29, 2018, HollyFrontier Woods Cross Refining LLC and Holly Energy Partners – Operating, L.P., is hereby terminated and shall be of no further force effect, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise therein.

3.    Omnibus Agreement - Business Opportunities.

(a)    Permitted Assets. Each Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that although certain assets acquired by HFC pursuant to the HFC Sinclair Agreement, including the assets identified on Exhibit C-1 hereto, constitute Permitted Assets (as defined in the Omnibus Agreement) (the “Sinclair Permitted Assets”) HFC shall have no obligation to offer the Sinclair Permitted Assets to HEP pursuant to Article II of the Omnibus Agreement.

(b)    Restricted Business Exception. Each Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that the assets identified on Exhibit C-2 hereto, shall not constitute a Restricted Business (as defined in the Omnibus Agreement) and, therefore, shall not be subject to HEP’s rights under Article II of the Omnibus Agreement.

2

4.    UNEV Class B. Each Party hereby waives, and shall cause its applicable Affiliates to waive, application of Section 12.3 of the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of HEP UNEV Holdings LLC dated July 12, 2012 (the “UNEV LLCA”) in respect of any UNEV Pipeline Divestiture Action (as defined in the HEP Sinclair Agreement). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 shall not act as a waiver of the application of Section 12.3 of the UNEV LLCA to any future UNEV Sale Event (as defined in the UNEV LLCA).

5.    Wrong Pockets.

(a)    Misdirected Funds. If, following the HFC Closing, any member of the HEP Group (including any entity acquired by the HEP Group in connection with the HEP Sinclair Agreement, such entity a “Sinclair Midstream Entity”) receives or collects any funds relating to (i) the Downstream Business (as defined in the HFC Sinclair Agreement) or (ii) any asset of any Sinclair Downstream Entity (as defined below), then HEP shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliates to, promptly remit such funds to HFC. If, following the HFC Closing, any member of the HFC Group (including any entity acquired by the HFC Group in connection with the HFC Sinclair Agreement but excluding any Sinclair Midstream Entity, such entity a “Sinclair Downstream Entity”) receives or collects any funds relating to (y) the Midstream Business (as defined in the HFC Sinclair Agreement) or (z) any asset of any Sinclair Midstream Entity, then HFC shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliates to, promptly remit such funds to HEP.

(b)    Misdirected Assets. If, following the HFC Closing, either Party determines that an asset purportedly acquired by HFC pursuant to the HFC Sinclair Agreement (such asset, a “Sinclair Downstream Asset”) is owned by a Sinclair Midstream Entity, then HEP shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliates to, promptly transfer, on an “as is, where is” basis, such Sinclair Downstream Asset to HFC or its applicable Affiliates without any consideration therefor. If, following the HFC Closing, either Party determines that a Sinclair Midstream Asset is owned by a Sinclair Downstream Entity, then HFC shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliates to, promptly transfer, on an “as is, where is” basis, such Sinclair Midstream Asset to HEP or its applicable Affiliates without any consideration therefor.

6.    Miscellaneous.

(a)    Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or modification of this Letter Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by each of the Parties. No waiver of any provision of this Letter Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by the Party against whom the waiver is sought to be enforced.

(b)    Choice of Law; Disputes. This Letter Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflicts-of-law rule or principle that might refer the construction or interpretation of this Letter Agreement to the laws of

3

another state. Any dispute, claim or controversy arising under this Letter Agreement shall be treated as an Arbitrable Dispute (as defined in the Omnibus Agreement) and resolved in the manner provided in Article VIII of the Omnibus Agreement.

(c)    Entire Agreement. This Letter Agreement (including the Exhibits attached hereto), the Sinclair Agreements and the Omnibus Agreement comprise the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such subject matters.

(d)    Further Assurances. In connection with this Letter Agreement and all transactions contemplated by this Letter Agreement, each Party agrees to execute and deliver such additional documents and instruments and to perform such additional acts as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate, carry out and perform all of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Letter Agreement and all such transactions.

(e)    Counterparts. This Letter Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if each of the Parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one agreement. This Letter Agreement, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or via e-mail in .pdf file format, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person.

An Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice to Sellers or Buyer, as applicable (the “Indemnifying Party”), of the commencement or assertion of any action, proceeding, demand, or claim by a third party (collectively, a “third- party action”) in respect of which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder. Any failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it, he, or she may have to such Indemnified Party under this ARTICLE IX unless the failure to give such notice materially and adversely prejudices the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume control of the defense of, settle, or otherwise dispose of such third-party action on such terms as it deems appropriate; provided, however, that:

(a)    The Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at its own expense, to participate in the defense of such third-party action (provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall pay the attorneys’ fees of the Indemnified Party if (i) the employment of separate counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such third-party action, (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to have charge of such third-party action, (iii) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to such Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (iv) the Indemnified Party’s counsel shall have advised the Indemnified Party in writing, with a copy delivered to the Indemnifying Party, that there is a material conflict of interest that could violate applicable standards of professional conduct to have common counsel);

(b)    The Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written approval of the Indemnified Party before entering into or making any settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment of the validity of such third-party action or any liability in respect thereof if,

-10-

pursuant to or as a result of such settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment, injunctive or other equitable relief would be imposed against the Indemnified Party or if, in the opinion of the Indemnified Party, such settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment could have a Material Adverse Effect on its business;

(c)    The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such third-party action; and

(d)    The Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to control (but shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense of), and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to have sole control over, the defense or settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment of any third-party action (i) as to which the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense within a reasonable length of time or (ii) to the extent the third-party action seeks an order, injunction, or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party which, if successful, would materially adversely affect the business, operations, assets, or financial condition of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall make no settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment that would give rise to liability on the part of any Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of such Indemnifying Party.

Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.4(a), the failure of the Indemnified Party to exercise promptness in such notification shall not amount to a waiver of such claim unless the resulting delay materially prejudices the position of the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim.

9.4    Limitations. The following provisions of this Section 9.4 shall limit the indemnification obligations hereunder:

(a)    Limitation as to Time. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any Indemnified Costs pursuant to this ARTICLE IX unless a written claim for indemnification in accordance with Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 is given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party with respect thereto at any time prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

(b)    Sole and Exclusive Remedy. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that, after the Closing Date, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer’s and the other Buyer Indemnified Parties’ and each Seller and the other Seller Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy with respect to the Indemnified Costs shall be in accordance with, and limited by, the provisions set forth in this ARTICLE IX.

(b)    Any Party may at any time change its address for service from time to time by giving notice to the other Parties in accordance with this Section 10.2.

10.3    Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced under Applicable Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated herein are not affected in any manner adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated herein are consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

10.4    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflicts-of-law rule or principle that might refer the construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the laws of another state. Each Party hereby submits to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in the State of Texas and to venue in Dallas, Texas. EACH OF THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

10.5    Arbitration Provision. Any and all Arbitrable Disputes must be resolved through the use of binding arbitration using three arbitrators, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, as supplemented to the extent necessary to determine any procedural appeal questions by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code). If there is any inconsistency between this Section 10.5 and the Commercial Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of this Section 10.5 will control the rights and obligations of the Parties. Arbitration must be initiated within the time limits set forth in this Agreement, or if no such limits apply, then within a reasonable time or the time period allowed by the applicable statute of limitations. Arbitration may be initiated by a Party (“Claimant”) serving written notice on the other Party (“Respondent”) that the Claimant elects to refer the Arbitrable Dispute to binding arbitration. Claimant’s notice initiating binding arbitration must identify the arbitrator Claimant has appointed. The Respondent shall respond to Claimant within thirty (30) days after receipt of Claimant’s notice, identifying the arbitrator Respondent has appointed. If the Respondent fails for any reason to name an arbitrator within the 30-day period, Claimant shall petition the American Arbitration Association for appointment of an arbitrator for Respondent’s account. The two arbitrators so chosen shall select a third arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the second arbitrator has been appointed. The Claimant will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by it, and the Respondent will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by or for it. The costs of petitioning for the appointment of an arbitrator, if any, shall be paid by Respondent. The Claimant and Respondent will each pay one-half of the compensation and expenses of the third arbitrator. All arbitrators must (i) be neutral parties who have never been officers, directors or employees of either Seller, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates and (ii) have not less than seven (7) years’ experience in the petroleum transportation industry. The hearing will be conducted in Dallas, Texas and commence within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third arbitrator. Sellers, Buyer and the

-14-

arbitrators shall proceed diligently and in good faith in order that the award may be made as promptly as possible. Except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act, the decision of the arbitrators will be binding on and non-appealable by the Parties hereto. The arbitrators shall have no right to grant or award indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages of any kind. The Arbitrable Disputes may be arbitrated in a common proceeding along with disputes under other agreements between Sellers, Buyer or their respective Affiliates to the extent that the issues raised in such disputes are related. Without the written consent of the Parties, no unrelated disputes or third party disputes may be joined to an arbitration pursuant to this Agreement.

10.6    Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party and their successors and permitted assigns, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.
