Report of Independent Auditors
To the Members of Equilon Enterprises LLC
In our opinion, the accompanying combined balance sheet and the related combined statements of income and owner’s net investment and cash flows of the Shell Los Angeles Refinery and other associated assets collectively (“the Business”) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Business at December 31, 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Equilon Enterprises LLC management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As described in Notes 1 and 5 to the financial statements, the Business has significant transactions and relationships with affiliated entitles.

Shell Los Angeles Refinery and Other Associated Assets
Notes to Combined Financial Statements
December 31, 2006
1.   Organization and Basis of Presentation
 
    The accompanying combined financial statements present, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the historical operations of the Shell Los Angeles Refinery, including the Wilmington Terminal and 278 retail sites, (“the Business”) owned by Equilon Enterprises LLC, dba Shell Oil Products US (“SOPUS”). Throughout the period covered by the financial statements, SOPUS owned and managed the Business.
 
    The Business’ main operations consist of a crude oil refinery with a maximum production capacity of approximately 100,000 barrels per day, an oil products terminal located in Wilmington, CA, and 278 retail sites in Southern California. The Business’ operational assets include several conversion units, storage facilities and intra-refinery pipelines. Its primary markets served are Southern California and Arizona.
 
    The accompanying combined financial statements are presented on a carve-out basis to include the historical operations of the Business owned by SOPUS. In this context, a direct relationship existed between the carve-out operations and the sole owner, SOPUS. SOPUS’ net investment in the Business (owner’s net investment) is shown in lieu of stockholder’s equity in the combined financial statements. Owners net investment represents the balance resulting from transactions between the Business and SOPUS.
 
    Throughout the period covered by the combined financial statements, SOPUS has provided cash management services to the Business through a centralized treasury function. As a result, all charges and cost allocations for the Business were deemed to have been paid by the Business to SOPUS, in cash, during the period in which the cost was recorded in the combined financial statements.
 
    All of the allocations and estimates in the financial statements were based on assumptions that SOPUS’ management believes were reasonable under the circumstances. These allocations and estimates are not necessarily indicative of the costs and expenses that would have resulted if the Business had been operated as a separate entity.
 
2.   Significant Accounting Policies
 
    Use of Estimates
 
    The preparation of combined financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires SOPUS’ management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Although SOPUS’ management believes these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
    Revenues associated with the sale of crude oil, refined products, retail gasoline and all other sales are recorded at the time title passes to the customer.
 
    Property and Equipment
 
    Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost, less any impairment charges. Costs subject to depreciation are net of expected salvage values and deprecation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives. The useful lives of productive assets are principally 20 years.

Shell Los Angeles Refinery and Other Associated Assets
Notes to Combined Financial Statements
December 31, 2006
Acquisitions and expenditures for renewals and betterments, including major refinery maintenance, are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Costs related to capital projects are accumulated as “Construction in Progress” until the project is completed. Upon completion such costs are reclassified to property, plant and equipment. Depreciation commences when the assets are placed in service.
Asset Retirement Obligations
The Business records liabilities equal to the fair value of asset retirement obligations and corresponding additional costs in accordance with relevant accounting standards. The obligations included are those for which there Is a legal obligation as a result of existing or enacted law, statutes, or contracts.
Inventories
Inventories of crude oil and refined projects are valued at the lower of cost or market, reported on a LIFO basis. The year-end inventory values were below their current cost by approximately $107.6 million at the end of 2006.
Environmental and Other Accrued Liabilities
The Business accrues for environmental remediation and other liabilities when it is probable that such liabilities exist, based on past events or known conditions, and the amount of such liability can be reasonably estimated. If the Business can only estimate a range of probable liabilities, the minimum future undiscounted expenditure necessary to satisfy the Business’ future obligation is accrued.
In 2006, an agreement was reached to settle environmental obligations associated with the certain retail sites of the Business for $92 million. Based on the agreement, SOPUS received a full release of all related environmental obligations and an indemnity from any further legal or regulatory action.
Concentration of Credit and Other Risks
A significant portion of the Business’ receivables are from two unrelated customers who collectively represent 47% of the accounts receivable balance as of December 31,2006.
Income Taxes
The Business has not historically accrued income tax expense as the Business was included as part of Shell Petroleum Inc.’s consolidated income tax return, which owns SOPUS. In accordance with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the Business does not file a separate U.S. federal income return. Income tax provision represents tax expense that would be incurred if the Business filed a separate stand alone tax return.
Comprehensive Income
SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, requires disclosure of all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by and distributions to the Business’ shareholders. There is no difference between the Business’ net income and comprehensive income for all periods presented.
New Accounting Standards
Recent accounting pronouncements that became effective during 2006 or are scheduled to become effective in 2007 and beyond, which could have or are expected to have a significant effect on the Business’ financial position, results of operations or cash flows are described in the following.

Shell Los Angeles Refinery and Other Associated Assets
Notes to Unaudited Combined Financial Statements
March 31, 2006 and 2007
 
1.   Organization and Basis of Presentation
 
    The accompanying unaudited combined financial statements present the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the historical operations of the Shell Los Angeles Refinery, including the Wilmington Terminal and 278 retail sites, (“the Business”) owned by Equilon Enterprises LLC, dba Shell Oil Products US (“SOPUS”). Throughout the period covered by the financial statements, SOPUS owned and managed the Business.
 
    In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited combined financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006. The unaudited combined financial statements do not include all disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
    The accompanying unaudited combined financial statements are presented on a carve-out basis to include the historical operations of the Business owned by SOPUS. In this context, a direct relationship existed between the carve-out operations and the sole owner, SOPUS. SOPUS’ net investment in the Business (owner’s net investment) is shown in lieu of stockholder’s equity in the combined financial statements.
 
    Throughout the period covered by the unaudited combined financial statements, SOPUS has provided cash management services to the Business through a centralized treasury function. As a result, all charges and cost allocations for the Business were deemed to have been paid by the Business to SOPUS, in cash, during the period in which the cost was recorded in the combined financial statements.
 
    All of the allocations and estimates in the unaudited combined financial statements were based on assumptions that SOPUS’ management believes were reasonable under the circumstances. These allocations and estimates are not necessarily indicative of the costs and expenses that would have resulted if the Business had been operated as a separate entity.
2.   Significant Accounting Policies
 
    Use of Estimates
The preparation of combined financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires SOPUS’ management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Although SOPUS’ management believes these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
    Revenues
Revenues associated with the sale of crude oil, refined products, retail gasoline and all other sales are recorded at the time title passes to the customer.
 
    Property and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost, less any impairment charges. Costs subject to depreciation are net of expected salvage values and deprecation is calculated

    on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives. The useful lives of productive assets are principally 20 years.
    Acquisitions and expenditures for renewals and betterments, including major refinery maintenance, are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Costs related to capital projects are accumulated as “Construction in Progress” until the project is completed. Upon completion such costs are reclassified to property, plant and equipment. Depreciation commences when the assets are placed in service.
 
    Asset Retirement Obligations
The Business records liabilities equal to the fair value of asset retirement obligations and corresponding additional costs in accordance with relevant accounting standards. The obligations included are those for which there is a legal obligation as a result of existing or enacted law, statutes, or contracts.
 
    Inventories
Inventories of crude oil and refined projects are valued at the lower of cost or market, reported on a LIFO basis.
 
    Environmental and Other Accrued Liabilities
The Business accrues for environmental remediation and other liabilities when it is probable that such liabilities exist, based on past events or known conditions, and the amount of such liability can be reasonably estimated. If the Business can only estimate a range of probable liabilities, the minimum future undiscounted expenditure necessary to satisfy the Business’ future obligation is accrued.
 
    In 2006, an agreement was reached to settle environmental obligations associated with the certain retail sites of the Business for $92 million. Based on the agreement, SOPUS received a full release of all related environmental obligations and an indemnity from any further legal or regulatory action.
 
    Concentration of Credit and Other Risks
A significant portion of the Business’ receivables are from two unrelated customers who collectively represent 53% of the accounts receivable balance as of March 31, 2007.
 
    Income Taxes
The Business has not historically accrued income tax expense as the Business was included as part of Shell Petroleum Inc.’s consolidated income tax return, which owns SOPUS. In accordance with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the Business does not file a separate U.S. federal income return. Income tax provision represents tax expense that would be incurred if the business filed a separate stand alone tax return.
 
    Comprehensive Income
SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, requires disclosure of all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by and distributions to the Business’ shareholders. There is no difference between the Business’ net income and comprehensive income for all periods presented.

    FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement 109”-
In July 2006 the FASB issued FIN 48, which is effective for financial years beginning after December 15, 2006. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting and recognition for certain tax benefits. The Business adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007, which had no impact on the Business’ combined financial statements or disclosures.
 
3.   Taxes
 
    Total income tax expenses for March 31, 2006 and 2007 was equivalent to an effective tax rate of 40.25% on earnings, representing the U.S. statutory rate of 35% plus state taxes incurred.
 
4.   Related Party Transactions
 
    The Business has entered into purchase and sale transactions with SOPUS including its affiliates. Such transactions are in the ordinary course of business. The aggregate amounts of such transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, consisted of hydrocarbon purchases from Shell Oil Products US totaling approximately $401 million and $492 million, respectively, and sales of refined products to Shell Oil Products US totaling approximately $164 million and $287 million, respectively. Certain of the Business’ personnel participate in the Alliance Pension Plan (a defined benefit plan) and the Alliance Savings Plan (a defined contribution plan). Also, certain of those personnel participate in Shell sponsored benefit plans that provide pensions and other postretirement benefits. A portion of these plans are unfunded, and the costs are shared by SOPUS and its employees. The Business’ allocated expense related to these plans was approximately $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006.
 
    Allocated charges for certain operating activities performed by Shell Oil Products and its affiliates are allocated as an expense to the Business. Charges related to these costs amounted to $16 million and $11 million during the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively and are reflected as a component of direct operating expenses. See Note 1.
 
5.   Commitments and Contingencies
 
    The Business is subject to possible loss contingencies including actions or claims based on environmental laws, federal regulations, and other matters.
 
    The Business may be obligated to take remedial action as a result of the enactment of laws or the issuance of new regulations or to correct for the effects of the Business’ actions on the environment. The Business accrued an amount of approximately $44.6 million at March 31, 2007, for planned environmental remediation activities. In SOPUS management’s opinion, this is appropriate based on existing facts and circumstances.
 
6.   Subsequent Events
 
    SOPUS entered into certain agreements to sell the Business to Tesoro Corporation on January 29, 2007. The transaction closed on May 10, 2007.

On May 10, 2007, Tesoro Corporation (“Tesoro” or the “Company”) acquired from Shell Oil Products US (the “Los Angeles Assets Acquisition”) a 100,000 barrel per day (“bpd”) refinery and a 42,000 bpd refined products terminal located south of Los Angeles, California along with 278 Shell-branded retail stations located throughout Southern California (collectively, the “Los Angeles Assets”).The purchase price for the Los Angeles Assets was $1.76 billion which includes $213 million for estimated inventories, subject to post-closing adjustments. Tesoro financed the Los Angeles Assets Acquisition, including estimated fees and expenses of $28 million, with $584 million in cash and with proceeds from (i) the borrowing of $500 million under our amended and restated credit agreement (the “amended credit agreement”) and (ii) the borrowing of $700 million under our 364-day $700 million term loan (the “interim term loan” and collectively, the “Financing Transactions”). The Los Angeles Assets Acquisition and the Financing Transactions are collectively referred to as the “Transactions”.
The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet gives effect to the Transactions as if each had occurred on March 31, 2007 and the following unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations give effect to the Transactions as if each had occurred on January 1, 2006. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements do not include the USA Petroleum acquisition as it is insignificant to the Company’s financial position and results of operations. The USA Petroleum acquisition was completed on May 1, 2007 and included 138 USA retail stations located primarily in California. The purchase price of the assets and the USA® brand of $273 million was paid in cash, including $7 million for inventories, subject to post-closing adjustments.
The estimates of the fair values of the Los Angeles Assets and related liabilities included in the unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet are based on preliminary estimates. These estimates with respect to inventories, property, plant and equipment, acquired intangibles and certain assumed liabilities will likely change. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements are based on assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable and are intended for informational purposes only. They are not necessarily indicative of the future financial position or the results of operations that would have actually occurred had the Los Angeles Assets Acquisition taken place as of the date or for the periods presented. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations do not reflect any benefits from potential cost savings or revenue enhancements resulting from the integration of the operations of the Los Angeles Assets Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations include allocations of corporate overhead related to the historical Los Angeles Assets financial statements totaling $51 million and $16 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the three months ended March 31, 2007, respectively. Tesoro believes the actual incremental corporate overhead that we will incur will be less than the allocated amounts.
These unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements included in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and the financial statements of the Shell Los Angeles Refinery and Other Associated Assets included as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 to this Form 8-K/A.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
COMBINED CONDENSED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS
For the Year Ended December 31, 2006 and Three Months Ended March 31, 2007
 
(a)   Represents an adjustment to eliminate rental revenues associated with Shell’s company-owned/dealer operated retail stations that were not sold to Tesoro.
 
(b)   Historical Los Angeles Assets results include $51 million and $16 million of allocated corporate overhead expenses for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the period ended March 31, 2007, respectively.
 
(c)   Represents franchise fees Tesoro would pay to Shell for the use of Shell’s trademarks and other licensed branding under an agreement that will be in place after the acquisition that is based on the estimated volume of products sold at certain retail stations.
 
(d)   Represents an adjustment to historical depreciation expense based on our preliminary allocation of fair values to property, plant and equipment using estimated weighted-average useful lives of 28 years for refinery assets, 19 years for terminals and 15 years for retail assets and a salvage value of 10%.
 
(e)   Represents an adjustment to record amortization of acquired intangible assets consisting primarily of air emission credits, software licenses and refinery permits and plans with lives ranging from 3 to 28 years, for a total weighted-average life of 23 years.
 
(f)   Represents an adjustment to record amortization of deferred turnarounds based on our preliminary allocation of fair values using a weighted-average estimated useful life of 4 years.
 
(g)   Represents additional interest expense associated with the $1.2 billion in borrowings to finance the Los Angeles Assets acquisition at a weighted average rate of 6.45%. A 1/8% change in the interest rates associated with the amended credit agreement and interim term loan would have approximately a $625,000 and $875,000 effect on annual interest expense, respectively.
 
(h)   Represents amortization of the $16 million of deferred financing costs over terms of five years and one year for the amended credit agreement and the interim term loan, respectively.
 
(i)   Represents a reduction in interest income reflecting the $606 million reduction in cash used to fund a portion of the acquisition assuming an average rate of interest earned of 5.0%.
 
(i)   Represents the income tax effect of the adjustments above at a combined statutory tax rate of 38.6%.
