OTHER EVENTS On December 12, 2002, Tesoro Petroleum Corporation ("Tesoro") issued a press release announcing that Tesoro had completed two of the three separate transactions for the sale of 70 retail outlets in Northern California. The proceeds from this transaction involving 47 retail outlets totaled $44 million, including working capital, and 50% of such proceeds will be used to pay down term debt. The foregoing is qualified by reference to the press release which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. On December 13, 2002 Tesoro entered into an amendment (the "Second Amendment") of its $1.275 billion credit agreement with Lehman Brothers Inc. (as arranger), Lehman Commercial Paper Inc. (as syndication agent), Bank One, NA (as administrative agent), ABN Amro Bank N.V., Credit Lyonnais New York Branch and The Bank of Nova Scotia (as co-documentation agents) and a syndicate of banks, financial institutions and other entities. Under terms of the Second Amendment, Tesoro need only receive net proceeds of $167 million from the sale of assets and apply $87.5 million of those proceeds toward the reduction of term debt by December 31, 2002 to satisfy the terms of the Second Amendment. The original agreement called for net proceeds of $175 million and the pay-down of $87.5 million in term debt by December 31, 2002. Tesoro is still obligated to generate net proceeds of $200 million by March 31, 2003. In addition, if necessary, the Second Amendment provides for a 45 day extension of the December 31, 2002 deadline to receive net proceeds of $167 million, although 100% of any proceeds received after December 31, 2002 would be applied toward the reduction of term debt. On December 16, 2002 Tesoro issued a press release announcing the amended terms to the credit agreement. The foregoing is qualified by reference to the Second Amendment which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and the press release which is filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference. On December 20, 2002, Tesoro issued a press release announcing that Tesoro had completed the sale of 23 retail outlets in Northern California for $23 million, including working capital, 50% of which will be used to pay down term debt.

The foregoing is qualified by reference to the press release which is filed as Exhibit 99.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. On December 26, 2002, Tesoro issued a press release announcing that Tesoro had completed the sale of the Northern Great Plains Products System to Kaneb Pipe Line Partners, L.P. for $100 million, $50 million of which will be used to pay down term debt.
