Disclaimers This presentation contains forward-looking statements made by Valero Energy Corporation (“VLO” or “Valero”) and Valero Energy Partners LP (“VLP” or the “Partnership”) within the meaning of federal securities laws. These statements discuss future expectations, contain projections of results of operations or of financial condition or state other forward-looking information. You can identify forward-looking statements by words such as “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “could,” “may,” “will,” “targeting,” “illustrative” or other similar expressions that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond the control of Valero or VLP, as applicable, and are difficult to predict. These statements are often based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including examination of historical operating trends made by the management of Valero or VLP, as applicable. Although Valero and VLP believe that the assumptions were reasonable when made, because assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond their respective control, neither Valero nor VLP can give assurance that either will achieve or accomplish their respective expectations, beliefs or intentions. When considering these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements contained in Valero’s and VLP’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Valero’s annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and other reports available on Valero’s website at www.valero.com, and VLP’s annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and other reports available on VLP’s website at www.valeroenergypartners.com.

Potential capacity also includes Pasadena terminal currently under construction. Map shows destinations for products exported from Valero’s refineries in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. Slide 17 Amounts shown represent targeted EBITDA growth. We are unable to provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking targets because certain information needed to make a reasonable forward-looking estimate is difficult to estimate and dependent on future events, which are uncertain or outside of our control, including with respect to unknown financing terms, project timing and costs, and other potential variables. Accordingly, a reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort.

VLO Non-GAAP Disclosures Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA VLO defines EBITDA as net income before income tax expense, interest and debt expense, net of capitalized interest, and depreciation expense. VLO defines net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA as the ratio of total debt, net of cash, divided by adjusted EBITDA, further adjusted for turnaround and catalyst costs, blender’s tax credit, loss on early redemption of debt, Texas City fire expenses, and environmental reserve adjustment. VLO defines adjusted EBITDA for the trailing 12-month period (TTM) as the sum of adjusted EBITDA for the year ended Dec 31, 2017 and the six months ended Jun 30, 2018, less that for the six months ended Jun 30, 2017. VLO believes that the presentation of net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors to assess its ability to incur and service debt. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to adjusted EBITDA are net income and net cash provided by operating activities. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income or net cash provided by operating activities presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income or net cash provided by operating activities. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, VLO’s definition of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility. Return on Invested Capital VLO defines return on invested capital (ROIC) as adjusted operating income after tax divided by total invested capital. VLO defines total invested capital as the sum of total debt and total equity. VLO defines adjusted operating income after tax for the TTM period as the sum of operating income after tax for the year ended Dec 31, 2017 and the six months ended Jun 30, 2018, less that for the six months ended Jun 30, 2017 (taxes calculated using VLO’s adjusted effective tax rate for each period). VLO defines total invested capital as the average of the total invested capital as of Jun 30, 2018, and the same period one year ago, Jun 30, 2017. Operating income for 2017 has been adjusted to reflect VLO’s retrospective adoption of ASU No. 2017-07, which resulted in the reclassification of the non-service cost components of our net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs from operating expenses and general and administrative expenses to other income (expense), net. Adjusted effective tax rate for the year ended Dec 31, 2017 excludes the effect of the income tax benefit from tax reform. VLO believes that the presentation of ROIC provides useful information to investors for assessing how efficiently it uses its capital and its ability to generate returns from invested capital. The GAAP measure most directly comparable adjusted operating income is operating income. Adjusted operating income should not be considered an alternative to operating income presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted operating income has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some, but not all, items that affect operating income. Adjusted operating income should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because adjusted operating income may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, VLO’s definition of adjusted operating income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

VLP Non-GAAP Disclosures: EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, and Debt-to-Adjusted Pro Forma EBITDA VLP defines EBITDA as net income before income tax expense, interest and debt expense, net of capitalized interest, and depreciation expense. VLP defines distributable cash flow as EBITDA less (i) EBITDA attributable to its Predecessor and cash payments during the period for interest, income taxes, and maintenance capital expenditures; plus (ii) adjustments related to minimum throughput commitments, capital projects prefunded by Valero, and certain other items. VLP defines coverage ratio as the ratio of distributable cash flow to the total distribution declared. EBITDA, distributable cash flow, debt-to-adjusted pro forma EBITDA, and coverage ratio are supplemental financial measures that are not defined under GAAP. They may be used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies, to: describe VLP’s expectation of forecasted earnings; assess VLP’s operating performance as compared to other publicly traded limited partnerships in the transportation and logistics industry, without regard to historical cost basis or, in the case of EBITDA, financing methods; assess the ability of VLP’s business to generate sufficient cash to support its decision to make distributions to its unitholders; assess VLP’s ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and assess the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities. VLP believes that the presentation of EBITDA provides useful information to investors in assessing its financial condition and results of operations. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to EBITDA are net income and net cash provided by operating activities. EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income or net cash provided by operating activities presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income or net cash provided by operating activities. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because EBITDA may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, VLP’s definition of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility. VLP uses distributable cash flow to measure whether it has generated from its operations, or “earned,” an amount of cash sufficient to support the payment of the minimum quarterly distributions. VLP’s partnership agreement contains the concept of “operating surplus” to determine whether VLP’s operations are generating sufficient cash to support the distributions that it is paying, as opposed to returning capital to VLP’s partners. Because operating surplus is a cumulative concept (measured from VLP’s IPO date and compared to cumulative distributions from the IPO date), VLP uses the term distributable cash flow to approximate operating surplus on a quarterly or annual, rather than a cumulative, basis. As a result, distributable cash flow is not necessarily indicative of the actual cash VLP has on hand to distribute or that it is required to distribute. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to distributable cash flow is net income. Distributable cash flow should not be considered an alternative to net income presented in accordance with GAAP. Distributable cash flow has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income. Distributable cash flow should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because distributable cash flow may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, VLP's definition of distributable cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility. VLP uses the distribution coverage ratio to reflect the relationship between its distributable cash flow and the total distribution declared. The debt-to-adjusted pro forma EBITDA ratio as defined in accordance with VLP’s debt covenants is total debt divided by adjusted pro forma EBITDA for the trailing 12 month period. VLP believes that the presentation of debt-to-adjusted pro forma EBITDA provides useful information to investors to assess its ability to incur and service debt.
