PART I

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical facts included
in this Form 10-Q, including without limitation those under "Results of
Operations," "Liquidity and Capital Resources" and "Additional Factors that May

financial position and results of operations in Item 2 "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part I and
those in Item 1 "Legal Proceedings" in Part II, are forward-looking statements.
Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including but not
limited to risks and uncertainties with respect to the actions of actual or
potential competitive suppliers of refined petroleum products in the Company's
markets, the demand for and supply of crude oil and refined products, the spread
between market prices for refined products and market prices for crude oil, the
possibility of constraints on the transportation of refined products, the
possibility of inefficiencies or shutdowns in refinery operations or pipelines,
effects of governmental regulations and policies, the availability and cost of
financing to the Company, the effectiveness of the Company's capital investments
and marketing strategies, the Company's efficiency in carrying out construction
projects, the successful acquisition and integration of the Woods Cross
refinery, the possibility of terrorist attacks and the consequences of any such
attacks, and general economic conditions. Should one or more of these risks or
uncertainties, among others as set forth in this Form 10-Q, materialize, actual
results may vary materially from those estimated, anticipated or projected.
Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected by such
forward-looking statements are reasonable based on information currently
available to the Company, no assurances can be given that such expectations will
prove to have been correct. Cautionary statements identifying important factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's
expectations are set forth in this Form 10-Q, including without limitation in

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

Note A - Presentation of Financial Statements

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements, which have not been audited by independent accountants, reflect all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position as of January 31,
2003, the consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income for the
three months and six months ended January 31, 2003 and 2002, and consolidated
cash flows for the six months ended January 31, 2003 and 2002.

Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted,
therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2002.

References herein to the "Company" are for convenience of presentation
and may include obligations, commitments or contingencies that pertain solely to
one or more affiliates of the Company. Results of operations for the first six
months of fiscal 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.

Note B - New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 142 "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets" which changes how goodwill and other intangible assets are
accounted for subsequent to their initial recognition. SFAS No. 142 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, with early adoption
permitted; however, all goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30,
2001, are immediately subject to the provisions of this statement. The Company
adopted the standard effective August 1, 2002 and there was no material effect
on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

In June 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 143 "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations" which requires that the fair value for an asset retirement
obligation be capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset
if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. SFAS No. 143 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002, with early adoption permitted.
The Company adopted the standard effective August 1, 2002 and there was no
material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or
cash flows.

In August 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". This statement supersedes SFAS No. 121
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed Of", but carries over the key guidance from SFAS No. 121 in
establishing the framework for the recognition and measurement of long-lived
assets to be disposed of by sale and addresses significant implementation
issues. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2001, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the standard effective
August 1, 2002 and there was no material effect on its financial condition,
results of operations, or cash flows.

8

HOLLY CORPORATION

In June 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 146 "Accounting for Certain Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" which nullifies Emerging Issues
Task Force ("EITF") 94-3 and requires that a liability for a cost associated
with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred
and establishes fair value as the objective for initial measurement of
liabilities. This differs from EITF 94-3 which stated that liabilities for exit
costs were to be recognized as of the date of an entity's commitment to an exit
plan. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are
initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company adopted SFAS No. 146 on January
1, 2003, and the standard has had no effect on its financial condition, results
of operations, or cash flows.

In December 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 148 "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation--Transition and Disclosure", an amendment of SFAS No. 123. This
statement provides alternative methods of transition to SFAS 123's fair value
method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this
statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require disclosures
in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting
for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on
reported results. SFAS 148's amendment of the disclosure requirements is
effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. SFAS 148's
amendment of the transition and annual disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 are
effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002.

The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants has issued an
Exposure Draft for a Proposed Statement of Position, "Accounting for Certain
Costs and Activities Related to Property, Plant and Equipment" which would
require major maintenance activities to be expensed as costs are incurred. As of
January 31, 2003, the Company had approximately $10.4 million of deferred
maintenance costs, all relating to refinery turnarounds in prior periods, which
are being amortized over various benefit periods. The current monthly
amortization is $788,000. If this proposed Statement of Position had been
adopted in its current form, as of January 31, 2003, the Company would have been
required to expense $10.4 million of deferred maintenance costs and would be
required to expense all future turnaround costs as incurred.

Note C - Earnings Per Share

Basic income per share is calculated as net income divided by average
number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted income per share assumes,
when dilutive, issuance of the net incremental shares from stock options. The
following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic
and diluted per share computations for net income:

HOLLY CORPORATION

Note D - Investments in Joint Ventures

The Company currently has a 49% interest in NK Partners, a joint
venture that manufactures and markets asphalt products from various terminals in
Arizona and New Mexico. The Company accounts for earnings using the equity
method. The Company's Navajo Refinery sells at market prices all of its produced
asphalt to the joint venture. Sales to the joint venture during the three months
ended January 31, 2003 and 2002 were $5.0 million and $2.6 million,
respectively. Sales to the joint venture during the six months ended January 31,
2003 and 2002 were $12.6 million and $10.0 million, respectively.

HOLLY CORPORATION

Note E - Debt

In August 2002, the Company entered into an agreement with a group of
banks led by Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce to extend its Revolving Credit
Agreement and reduce the commitment from $90 million to $75 million. Under the
terms of the Agreement, now that the Longhorn Partners Pipeline L.P. lawsuit has
been resolved, the expiration date of the Agreement is October 10, 2004, and
interest rate margins for borrowings and fees for letters of credit and bank
commitments have been reduced. Under the current agreement, the Company will
have access to $75 million of commitments for both revolving credit loans and
letters of credit. Up to $37.5 million of this facility may be used for
revolving credit loans. At January 31, 2003, the Company had letters of credit
outstanding under the facility of $15 million and had no borrowings outstanding.

Note F - Stockholders' Equity

On October 30, 2001, the Company announced plans to repurchase up to
$20 million of the Company's common stock. Such repurchases have been made from
time to time in open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions,
subject to price and availability. The repurchases have been financed with
currently available corporate funds. During the six months ended January 31,
2003, the Company repurchased 136,600 shares at a cost of approximately $2.3
million or an average of $17.04 per share. During the month of February 2003,
the Company repurchased an additional 37,300 shares at a cost of approximately
$777,000 or an average of $20.84 per share. From inception of the plan through
March 3, 2003, the Company has repurchased 272,400 shares at a cost of
approximately $4.7 million.

Note G - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In fiscal 2001, the Company entered into commodity price swaps and
collar options to help manage the exposure to price volatility relating to
forecasted purchases of natural gas from May 2001 through May 2002. These
transactions were designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted purchases. During
the six months ended January 31, 2002, the Company marked the value of the
outstanding hedges to fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 133 and included
$681,000 of income in comprehensive income. Gains (losses) on the natural gas
hedges were reclassified from comprehensive income to operating expenses through
May 2002 when the forecasted transactions impacted earnings.

11

HOLLY CORPORATION

The Company's profitability depends largely on the spread between market
prices for refined products and market prices for crude oil. A substantial or
prolonged reduction in this spread could have a significant negative effect on
the Company's earnings, financial condition and cash flows. At times, the
Company utilizes petroleum commodity futures contracts to minimize a portion of
its exposure to price fluctuations associated with crude oil and refined
products. In December 2002, the Company entered into cash flow hedges relating
to certain forecasted transactions to buy crude oil and sell gasoline in March
2003. The purpose of the hedges is to help protect the Company from the risk
that the refinery margin would decline with respect to the hedged crude oil and
refined products. To effect the hedges, the Company entered into gasoline and
crude oil futures transactions. Gains and losses reported in accumulated other
comprehensive income will be reclassified into income when the forecasted
transactions affect income. During the quarter ended January 31, 2003, the
Company marked the value of the outstanding hedges to fair value in accordance
with SFAS No. 133 and included $210,000 of loss in comprehensive income. The
ineffective portion of the hedges was a $31,000 gain and was included in cost of
sales for the quarter ended January 31, 2003.

Note H - Segment Information

The Company has two major business segments: Refining and Pipeline
Transportation. The Refining segment involves the refining of crude oil and
wholesale marketing of refined products, such as gasoline, diesel fuel and jet
fuel, and includes the Company's Navajo Refinery and Montana Refinery. The
petroleum products produced by the Refining segment are marketed in the
southwestern United States, Montana and northern Mexico. Certain pipelines and
terminals operate in conjunction with the Refining segment as part of the supply
and distribution networks of the refineries. The Refining segment also includes
the equity earnings from the Company's 49% interest in NK Asphalt Partners,
which manufactures and markets asphalt and asphalt products in Arizona and New
Mexico. The Pipeline Transportation segment includes approximately 1,000 miles
of the Company's pipeline assets in Texas and New Mexico. Revenues of the
Pipeline Transportation segment are earned through transactions with
unaffiliated parties for pipeline transportation, rental and terminalling
operations. Pipeline Transportation segment revenues do not include any amount
relating to pipeline transportation services provided for the Company's refining
operations. The Pipeline Transportation segment also includes the equity
earnings from the Company's 25% interest in Rio Grande Pipeline Company, which
provides petroleum products transportation. Operations of the Company that are
not included in the two reportable segments are included in Corporate and Other,
which includes costs of Holly Corporation, the parent company, consisting
primarily of general and administrative expenses and interest charges, as well
as a small-scale oil and gas exploration and production program, and a small
equity investment in retail gasoline stations and convenience stores.

The accounting policies for the segments are the same as those described
in the summary of significant accounting policies in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2002. The Company's reportable segments
are strategic business units that offer different products and services.

HOLLY CORPORATION

(1) Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization - EBITDA is
calculated as net income plus (i) interest expense net of interest income, (ii)
income tax provision, and (iii) depreciation, depletion, and amortization.
EBITDA is presented, not as an alternative measure of operating results or cash
flow from operations as determined in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States, but because EBITDA is a widely accepted
financial indicator of a company's ability to incur and service debt.

Note I - Contingencies

In November 2002, the Company settled by agreement litigation brought
in August 1998 by Longhorn Partners Pipeline, L.P. ("Longhorn Partners") against
the Company in a state court in El Paso, Texas and litigation brought in August
2002 by the Company against Longhorn Partners and related parties in a state
court in Carlsbad, New Mexico. Under the settlement agreement, which was
developed in voluntary mediation, in November 2002, the Company paid $25 million
to Longhorn Partners as a prepayment for the transportation of 7,000 barrels per
day of refined products from the Gulf Coast to El Paso for a period of up to 6
years from the date of the Longhorn Pipeline's start-up. Longhorn Partners has
also issued to the Company an unsecured $25 million promissory note,
subordinated to certain other indebtedness, that would become payable with
interest in the event that the Longhorn Pipeline does not begin operations by
July 1, 2004, or to the extent Longhorn Partners is unable to provide the
Company the full amount of the agreed transportation services. In the unaudited
consolidated balance sheet at January 31, 2003, the $25 million settlement is
reflected in Assets as "Other assets - Prepaid transportation."

In September 2002, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC")
issued an order in proceedings brought by the Company and other parties against
Kinder Morgan's SFPP, L.P.

13

HOLLY CORPORATION

("SFPP") relating to tariffs of common carrier pipelines, which are owned and
operated by SFPP, for shipments of refined products in the period from 1993
through July 2000 from El Paso, Texas to Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona and from
points in California to points in Arizona. The Company is one of several
refiners that regularly utilize an SFPP pipeline to ship refined products from
El Paso, Texas to Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona. The September 2002 order resolved
most remaining issues relating to SFPP's tariffs on the pipelines to points in
Arizona from 1993 through July 2000. On January 29, 2003, the FERC issued an
order accepting most of the computations prepared by SFPP pursuant to the
September 2002 order and requiring a change in one item. Based on the rulings
made by the FERC on this matter in the September 2002 and January 2003 orders,
the Company believes that under the final FERC decision for the years at issue
the Company would be entitled to a refund of approximately $15 million. The
final FERC decision on this matter is subject to judicial review by the Court of
Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. At the date of this report, it is
not possible to predict when amounts may be payable to the Company under the
final FERC decision on this matter, or what may be the result of judicial review
proceedings on this matter in the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia
Circuit. No amount relating to this matter has been included in the Company's
financial statements for the six months ended January 31, 2003.

Note J - Refinery Acquisition

In December 2002, the Company announced a definitive agreement with
ConocoPhillips to acquire the Woods Cross refinery near Salt Lake City, Utah and
related assets. The total price for the assets is $25 million, subject to
reduction for certain pension obligations, plus the value of crude oil, refined
product and other inventories currently estimated to be approximately $45
million. The Woods Cross refinery has a crude oil capacity of 25,000 barrels per
day and has operated at close to capacity over the last three years. The
purchase will also include certain pipelines and other transportation assets
used in connection with the refinery, 25 retail service stations located in Utah
and Wyoming, and a 10-year exclusive license to market fuels under the Phillips
brand in the states of Utah, Wyoming, Idaho and Montana. The purchase is
expected to be financed by a combination of cash and debt. The acquisition is
subject to satisfaction of certain closing requirements, including approval of
the transaction by the Federal Trade Commission and certain States. The Company
expects that the acquisition will close in April or May 2003.

Note K - Subsequent Event

On March 3, 2003, the Company sold its Iatan crude oil gathering
pipeline system located in West Texas to Plains Marketing L.P. for a purchase
price of $24 million in cash. In connection with the transaction, the Company
and Plains entered into a six and one half year agreement which allows the
Company to transport any crude oil purchased by the Company in the relevant area
on the Iatan system at an agreed upon tariff. The sale will result in a pre-tax
gain for the Company of approximately $17 million.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2003
COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2002

Summary

The Company incurred a net loss for the three months ended January 31,
2003 of $1.6 million ($0.10 per basic and diluted share) compared to a net loss
of $485,000 ($0.03 per basic and diluted share) for the three months ended
January 31, 2002. For the first six months ended January 31, 2003, net income
was $3.7 million ($0.24 per basic share or $0.23 per diluted share) compared to
$19.7 million ($1.27 per basic share or $1.24 per diluted share) for the first
six months ended January 31, 2002. The larger fiscal second quarter loss and the
lower earnings for the first six months ended January 31, 2003, as compared to
the prior year periods, were principally the result of lower refined product
margins and a loss rather than substantial earnings at our asphalt joint
venture, offset partially by increases in sales volumes resulting from the
absence of a maintenance turnaround in the second quarter of fiscal 2003.

Three Months Ended January 31, 2003 Compared with Three Months Ended January 31,
2002

For the second quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company experienced a net
loss of $1.6 million as compared to a $485,000 net loss in the second quarter of
fiscal 2002. Refining margins were poor during the second quarter of both fiscal
years and there were losses incurred by our asphalt joint venture in the second
quarter of fiscal 2003.

For the three months ended January 31, 2003, refining margins of $4.71
per barrel were slightly less than the refinery margins of $5.02 per barrel for
the three months ended January 31, 2002. Revenues from the sale of refined
products increased to $264.7 million in the second quarter

17

HOLLY CORPORATION

of fiscal 2003 from $161.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2002 due
principally to higher refined product sales prices. Total product sales volumes
for the second quarter ended January 31, 2003, significantly increased from the
quarter ended January 31, 2002. Production of refined products in the quarter
ended January 31, 2002 was reduced as the result of an extended 29-day planned
maintenance turnaround that involved a number of process units at the Artesia
and Lovington facilities.

Cost of sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2003 as compared to the
same quarter of fiscal 2002 increased significantly by $98.4 million to $232.4
million primarily reflecting substantially higher costs of crude oil and, to a
lesser extent, higher production volumes due to the absence of a maintenance
turnaround in the second quarter of fiscal 2003.

Operating expenses increased to $26.2 million in the second quarter of
fiscal 2003 from $23.3 million in fiscal 2002. The increase was primarily due to
higher natural gas prices and higher maintenance expenses.

Equity in earnings of joint ventures was a loss of $1.4 million for the
quarter ended January 31, 2003 as compared to income of $2.3 million in the
quarter ended January 31, 2002. The $3.7 million decrease is primarily due to a
loss incurred by our asphalt joint venture because of lower margins and an
inventory charge of $1.3 million, compared to substantial income of the asphalt
joint venture in the comparable quarter of fiscal 2002.

Six Months Ended January 31, 2003 Compared with Six Months Ended January 31,
2002

Net income for the first six months ended January 31, 2003 was $3.7
million compared to $19.7 million for the first six months ended January 31,
2002. Refining margins were substantially lower in the first six months of the
current fiscal year as compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2002 and
there were losses incurred by our asphalt joint venture in the first half of
fiscal 2003, compared to substantial income for the joint venture for the first
half of fiscal 2002.

For the six months ended January 31, 2003, refining margins of $5.24 per
barrel were significantly less than the refinery margins of $7.36 per barrel for
the six months ended January 31, 2002. During the prior year's first quarter,
the Company along with the refining industry as a whole, was still experiencing
very favorable refining margins, which have since declined. Revenues from the
sale of refined products increased to $535.2 million in the first six months of
fiscal 2003 from $414.7 million in the first six months of fiscal 2002 due
principally to higher refined product sales prices. Total product sales volumes
for the six months ended January 31, 2003 increased significantly from the first
six months ended January 31, 2002.

Cost of sales for the first six months ended January 31, 2003 increased
to $464.4 million from $326.0 million for the first six months ended January 31,
2002. The $138.4 million increase was primarily due to higher costs of crude oil
and, to a lesser extent, higher production volumes.

Equity in earnings of joint ventures declined substantially to $604,000
for the first six months ended January 31, 2003, from $5.1 million for the first
six months ended January 31, 2002. The $4.5 million decline resulted primarily
from a loss incurred by our asphalt joint venture because of lower margins for
the first half of fiscal 2003, compared to substantial income for the joint
venture in the

18

HOLLY CORPORATION

first half of fiscal 2002, and an inventory charge of $1.3 million in the second
quarter of 2003.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $53.9 million during the first
six months ended January 31, 2003. The reduction in cash was due partially to
the net use of $10.5 million cash for operating activities that was largely a
result of a $25.0 million payment for prepaid transportation services as part of
a settlement by agreement of litigation with Longhorn Partners Pipeline, L.P.
The reduction in cash was also affected by $27.6 million in capital
expenditures, principally for the Navajo Refinery's gas oil hydrotreater and
refinery expansion projects, a $2.5 million deposit related to the acquisition
of the Woods Cross refinery, $8.6 million for scheduled principal payments of
long-term debt, $2.3 million paid for repurchase of treasury shares and $3.4
million for cash dividends.

On October 30, 2001, the Company announced plans to repurchase up to
$20 million of the Company's common stock. Such repurchases have been made from
time to time in open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions,
subject to price and availability. The repurchases have been financed with
currently available corporate funds. During the six months ended January 31,
2003, the Company repurchased 136,600 shares at a cost of approximately $2.3
million or an average of $17.04 per share. During the month of February 2003,
the Company repurchased an additional 37,300 shares at a cost of approximately
$777,000 or an average of $20.84 per share. From inception of the plan through
March 3, 2003, the Company has repurchased 272,400 shares at a cost of
approximately $4.7 million.

In December 2001, an agreement was reached among the Company, the
Environmental Protection Agency, the New Mexico Environment Department, and the
Montana Department of Environmental Quality with respect to a global settlement
of issues concerning the application of air quality requirements to past and
future operations of the Company's refineries. The Consent Decree implementing
this agreement requires investments by the Company expected to total between $15
million and $20 million over a number of years for the installation of certain
state of the art pollution control equipment at the Company's New Mexico and
Montana refineries.

In August 2002, the Company entered into an agreement with a group of
banks led by Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce to extend its Revolving Credit
Agreement and reduce the commitment from $90 million to $75 million. Under the
terms of the Agreement, now that the Longhorn Partners Pipeline L.P. lawsuit has
been resolved, the expiration date of the Agreement is October 10, 2004 and
interest rate margins for borrowings and fees for letters of credit and bank
commitments have been reduced. Under the current agreement, the Company will
have access to $75 million of commitments for both revolving credit loans and
letters of credit. Up to $37.5 million of this facility may be used for
revolving credit loans. At January 31, 2003 the Company had letters of credit
outstanding under the facility of $15 million and had no borrowings outstanding.

HOLLY CORPORATION

In December 2002, the Company announced a definitive agreement with
ConocoPhillips to acquire the Woods Cross refinery near Salt Lake City, Utah and
related assets. The total price for the assets is $25 million subject to
reduction for certain pension obligations, plus the value of crude oil, refined
product and other inventories currently estimated to be approximately $45
million. The purchase is expected to be financed by a combination of cash and
debt. The acquisition is subject to satisfaction of certain closing
requirements, including approval of the transaction by the Federal Trade
Commission and certain States. The Company expects that the acquisition will
close in April or May 2003.

On March 3, 2003, the Company sold its Iatan crude oil gathering
pipeline system located in West Texas to Plains Marketing L.P. for a purchase
price of $24 million in cash. In connection with the transaction, the Company
and Plains entered into a six and one half year agreement which allows the
Company to transport any crude oil purchased by the Company in the relevant area
on the Iatan system at an agreed upon tariff. The sale will result in a pre-tax
gain for the Company of approximately $17 million.

The Company believes its internally generated cash flow together with
its Credit Agreement should provide adequate resources to fund planned capital
projects and acquisitions, scheduled repayments of the Senior Notes, continued
payment of dividends (although dividend payments must be approved by the Board
of Directors and cannot be guaranteed) and the Company's current liquidity
needs. However, in view of the increased estimated cost of the Company's
planned Navajo Refinery expansion, increased inventory investments resulting
from higher crude oil and product prices, and the planned acquisition of the
Woods Cross refinery, the Company intends to expand or replace its current
Credit Agreement to provide additional financial flexibility for the future.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash flows used by operating activities for the first six months of
fiscal 2003 were $10.5 million. For the comparable six month period of fiscal
2002, cash used by operating activities was $6.5 million. The $4.0 million
increase in cash used by operating activities for the first six months of fiscal
2003 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2002 was due to an $11.6
million reduction in net income, including a net loss rather than net income
from joint ventures, and $25.0 million paid for prepaid transportation services
offset by $13.6 million in reduced turnaround expenditures as compared to the
first half of the 2002 fiscal year and changes in working capital items. In the
first six months of fiscal 2003, changes in working capital items used $1.7
million as compared to the first half of fiscal 2002 when changes in working
capital used $20.3 million.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash flows used for financing activities were $13.6 million for the
first six months ended January 31, 2003, as compared to $10.3 million in the
same period of the prior year. During the first six months of fiscal 2003, the
Company made a scheduled repayment of long-term debt for $8.6 million, incurred
$635,000 in debt issuance costs in connection with extending its $75 million
credit facility to October 2004, spent $2.3 million to repurchase 136,600 shares
of common stock, paid $3.4 million in dividends and received $1.3 million upon
the exercise of options to acquire 94,300 shares of common stock. During the
first six months of fiscal 2002, the Company made a scheduled repayment of
long-term debt for $8.6 million, spent $160,000 to repurchase 8,600 shares of
its common stock, paid $3.1 million in dividends and received $1.5 million upon
the exercise of options to acquire 108,500 shares of common stock.

Cash Flows Used for Investing Activities and Capital Projects

Cash flows used for investing activities were $29.7 million for the
first six months ended January 31, 2003, as compared to $800,000 for the same
period of the 2002 fiscal year. Cash expenditures for property, plant and
equipment for the first six months of the current and prior fiscal years were
$27.6 million and $12.7 million respectively. Also in the six months ended
January 31, 2003, the Company made a $2.5 million deposit in connection with the
acquisition of the Woods Cross refinery. Most of the increase is due to the
Navajo Refinery's gas oil hydrotreater and expansion projects. The Company's net
cash flow used for investing activities was reduced during the first six months
of fiscal 2003 by a $487,000 distribution to the Company from the Rio Grande
Pipeline joint venture. During the first six months of fiscal 2002, the
Company's net cash flow used by investing activities was reduced by a $1.9
million distribution to the Company from the Rio Grande Pipeline joint ventures,
a $5.5 million distribution to the Company from the asphalt joint venture and by
$4.5 million of proceeds from the sale of marketable equity securities held for
investment.

The Company's capital budget adopted for fiscal year 2003 totals $14.8
million - $6.5 million for additional costs relating to the hydrotreater project
and refinery expansion, $3.2 million for other refinery improvements, $3 million
for pipeline transportation projects, $.6 million for oil and gas exploration
and production, and $1.5 million for information technology and other. The 2003
capital budget includes authorizations for some expenditures that are expected
to be made after the close of the 2003 fiscal year. The Company expects to
expend approximately $40 million in fiscal 2003 for capital improvements, which
includes amounts authorized in previous fiscal years. This amount is expected to
be allocated approximately $30 million for the hydrotreater project and the
refinery expansion to an estimated 75,000 barrels per day ("BPD") as described
below, approximately $6 million for other refinery improvements, approximately
$2 million for pipeline and transportation projects, and approximately $2
million for other projects, including information technology projects and oil
and gas exploration and development. These expenditures include projects
authorized in the Company's 2003 capital budget as well as expenditures
authorized in prior capital budgets but expected to be carried out in fiscal
2003.

In November 1997, the Company purchased a hydrotreater unit for $5.1
million from a closed refinery. This purchase gave the Company the ability to
reconstruct the unit at the Navajo Refinery at a substantial savings relative to
the purchase cost of a new unit. During the last four years, the Company spent
approximately $27.9 million on relocation, engineering, equipment fabrication,
and construction related to the hydrotreater and expansion projects. The
remaining costs to complete the hydrotreater project and the expansion project
are estimated to be approximately $34.5 million. The Company expects that the
hydrotreater project will be completed by December 2003. The hydrotreater will
enhance higher value light product yields and expand the Company's ability to
produce additional quantities of gasolines meeting the present California Air
Resources Board ("CARB") standards, which have been adopted in the Company's
Phoenix market for winter months beginning in late 2000, and to meet the
recently adopted EPA nationwide Low-Sulfur Gasoline requirements scheduled to
begin in 2004. In fiscal 2001 the Company completed the construction of a new
additional sulfur recovery unit, which is currently utilized to enhance sour
crude processing capabilities and will provide sufficient capacity to recover
the additional extracted sulfur that will result from operation of the
hydrotreater.

21

HOLLY CORPORATION

Contemporaneous with the hydrotreater project, the Navajo Refinery will
be making necessary modifications to several of the Artesia processing units for
the first phase of Navajo's expansion, which will increase crude oil refining
capacity from 60,000 BPD to approximately 75,000 BPD. The first phase of the
expansion is expected to be completed by December 2003. Certain additional
permits will be required to implement needed modifications at Navajo's
Lovington, New Mexico refining facility which is operated in conjunction with
the Artesia facility. It is envisioned that these necessary modifications to the
Lovington facility would also be completed by December 2003. The permits
received by Navajo to date for the Artesia facility, subject to possible minor
modifications, should also permit a second phase expansion of Navajo's crude oil
capacity from an estimated 75,000 BPD to an estimated 80,000 BPD, but a schedule
for such additional expansion has not been determined. During the three months
ended January 31, 2003, engineering and planning for the projects has been
nearly completed and the Company's estimate of the total cost of the projects
has increased from approximately $56 million to approximately $67.5 million due
to the increased costs and scope of certain refinery infrastructure upgrades,
added capacity and sulfur recovery capabilities and the increased actual costs
of previously estimated portions of the projects.

In December 2002, the Company announced a definitive agreement with
ConocoPhillips to acquire the Woods Cross refinery near Salt Lake City, Utah and
related assets. The total price for the assets is $25 million, subject to
reduction for certain pension obligations, plus the value of crude oil, refined
product and other inventories currently estimated to be approximately $45
million. The Woods Cross refinery has a crude oil capacity of 25,000 barrels per
day and has operated at close to capacity over the last three years. The
purchase will also include certain pipelines and other transportation assets
used in connection with the refinery, 25 retail service stations located in Utah
and Wyoming, and a 10-year exclusive license to market fuels under the Phillips
brand in the states of Utah, Wyoming, Idaho and Montana. The purchase is
expected to be financed by a combination of cash and debt. The acquisition is
subject to satisfaction of certain closing requirements, including approval of
the transaction by the Federal Trade Commission and certain States. The Company
expects that the acquisition will close in April or May 2003.

The Company leases from Mid-America Pipeline Company more than 300
miles of 8" pipeline running from Chaves County to San Juan County, New Mexico
(the "Leased Pipeline"). The Company owns and operates a 12" pipeline from the
Navajo Refinery to the Leased Pipeline as well as terminalling facilities in
Bloomfield, New Mexico, which is located in the northwest corner of New Mexico
and in Moriarty, which is 40 miles east of Albuquerque. Transportation of
petroleum products to markets in northwest New Mexico and diesel fuels to
Moriarty began in the last months of calendar 1999. In December 2001, the
Company completed its expansion of the Moriarty terminal and its pumping
capacity on the Leased Pipeline. The terminal expansion included the addition of
gasoline and jet fuel to the existing diesel fuel delivery capabilities, thus
permitting the Company to provide a full slate of light products to the growing
Albuquerque and Santa Fe, New Mexico areas. The enhanced pumping capabilities on
the Company's leased pipeline extending from the Artesia refinery through
Moriarty to Bloomfield will permit the Company to deliver a total of over 45,000
BPD of light products to these locations. If needed, additional pump stations
could further increase the pipeline's capabilities.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

The following table presents long-term contractual obligations of the
Company in total and by period due. These items include the Company's long-term
debt based on maturity dates and the Company's operating lease commitments. The
Company's operating leases contain renewal options that are not reflected in the
table below and that are likely to be exercised.

In July 2000, Navajo Western Asphalt Company ("Navajo Western"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and a subsidiary of Koch Materials
Company ("Koch") formed a joint venture, NK Asphalt Partners, to manufacture and
market asphalt and asphalt products in Arizona and New Mexico under the name
"Koch Asphalt Solutions - Southwest." Navajo Western contributed all of its
assets to NK Asphalt Partners and Koch contributed its New Mexico and Arizona
asphalt and manufacturing assets to NK Asphalt Partners. All asphalt produced at
the Navajo Refinery is sold at market prices to the joint venture under a supply
agreement. The Company is required to make additional contributions to the joint
venture of up to $3,250,000 for each of the next eight years contingent on the
earnings level of the joint venture. The Company expects to finance such
contributions from its share of cash flows of the joint venture.

As part of the Consent Decree filed December 2001 implementing an
agreement reached among the Company, the Environmental Protection Agency, the
New Mexico Environment Department, and the Montana Department of Environmental
Quality, the Company is required to make investments at the Company's New Mexico
and Montana refineries for the installation of certain state of the art
pollution control equipment expected to total between $15 million and $20
million over a number of years.

ADDITIONAL FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the discussion under
the heading "Additional Factors That May Affect Future Results" included in Item
7 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31,
2002.

The proposed Longhorn Pipeline, which is owned by Longhorn Partners
Pipeline, L.P. ("Longhorn Partners"), is an additional potential source of
pipeline transportation from Gulf Coast refineries to El Paso. This pipeline is
proposed to run approximately 700 miles from the Houston area of the Gulf Coast
to El Paso, utilizing a direct route. Longhorn Partners has proposed to use the
pipeline initially to transport approximately 72,000 BPD of refined products
from the Gulf Coast to El Paso and markets served from El Paso, with an ultimate
maximum capacity of 225,000 BPD. Although most construction has been completed,
the Longhorn Pipeline will not begin operations until the completion of certain
agreed improvements and pre-start-up steps. Published reports indicate that
construction in preparation for start-up of the Longhorn Pipeline continued
until late July 2002, when the construction activities were halted before
completion of the project. The latest public statements from Longhorn Partners
indicate that Longhorn Partners is seeking additional

23

HOLLY CORPORATION

financing to complete the project and that the pipeline will not begin
operations prior to May 2003. The proposed operation of the Longhorn Pipeline is
also the subject of a pending appeal in the United States Court of Appeals for
the Fifth Circuit of a decision by the federal district court in Austin, Texas
that allows the Longhorn Pipeline to begin operations when agreed improvements
have been completed. This appeal seeks a ruling that would reverse the federal
district court's decision and require a full environmental impact study before
the Longhorn Pipeline is allowed to operate.

If the Longhorn Pipeline operates as currently proposed, lower
requirements for capital investment permitted by the direct route through
Austin, Texas and over the Edwards Aquifers could allow Longhorn Partners to
give its shippers a cost advantage through lower tariffs that could, at least
for a period, result in significant downward pressure on wholesale refined
products prices and refined products margins in El Paso and related markets.
However, any effects on the Company's markets in Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona and
Albuquerque, New Mexico would be expected to be limited in the next few years
because current common carrier pipelines from El Paso to these markets are now
running at capacity and proration policies of these pipelines allocate only
limited capacity to new shippers. Although the Company's results of operations
might be adversely impacted and some current suppliers in the market might not
compete in such a climate, the Company's analyses indicate that, because of
location, recent capital improvements, and enhancements to operational
efficiency, the Company's position in El Paso and markets served from El Paso
could withstand a period of lower prices and margins that might result from
operation of the Longhorn Pipeline as currently proposed.

As a result of the Company's settlement in November 2002 of litigation
with Longhorn Partners as described in Part II, Item 1 "Legal Proceedings," on
November 26, 2002 the Company prepaid $25,000,000 to Longhorn Partners for the
shipment of 7,000 BPD of refined products from the Gulf Coast to El Paso in a
period of up to 6 years from the date the Longhorn Pipeline begins operations if
such operations begin by July 1, 2004. Under the agreement, the prepayment would
cover shipments of 7,000 BPD by the Company for approximately 4 1/2 years
assuming there were no curtailments of service once operations began. The
Company plans to make use of the prepaid transportation services to ship
purchased refined products on the Longhorn Pipeline to meet obligations of the
Company to deliver refined products to customers in El Paso. These
transportation services are expected to be of benefit to the Company because the
Company believes that most or all of such refined products shipped by the
Company on the Longhorn Pipeline would take the place of products that would
otherwise have been purchased by the Company from other suppliers.

At the date of this report, it is not possible to predict whether and,
if so, under what conditions, the Longhorn Pipeline will ultimately be operated,
nor is it possible to predict the overall impact on the Company if the Longhorn
Pipeline does not ultimately begin operations or begins operations at different
possible future dates. Under the terms of the November 2002 settlement agreement
that terminated litigation between the Company and Longhorn Partners, the
Company would have an unsecured claim for repayment of the Company's $25,000,000
prepayment to Longhorn Partners for transportation services in the event the
Longhorn Pipeline did not begin operations by July 1, 2004 or announced that it
would not begin operations by that date.

In November 2002, the Company settled by agreement litigation brought
in August 1998 by Longhorn Partners Pipeline, L.P. against the Company in a
state court in El Paso, Texas and litigation brought in August 2002 by the
Company against Longhorn Partners and related parties in a

24

HOLLY CORPORATION

state court in Carlsbad, New Mexico. For additional information on this
settlement, see Part II, Item 1 "Legal Proceedings."

Other legal proceedings that could affect future results are described
in Part II, Item 1 "Legal Proceedings."

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company uses certain strategies to reduce some commodity price and
operational risks. The Company does not attempt to eliminate all market risk
exposures when the Company believes the exposure relating to such risk would not
be significant to the Company's future earnings, financial position, capital
resources or liquidity or that the cost of eliminating the exposure would
outweigh the benefit.

The Company's profitability depends largely on the spread between market
prices for refined products and market prices for crude oil. A substantial or
prolonged reduction in this spread could have a significant negative effect on
the Company's earnings, financial condition and cash flows. At times, the
Company utilizes petroleum commodity futures contracts to minimize a portion of
its exposure to price fluctuations associated with crude oil and refined
products. In December 2002, the Company entered into cash flow hedges relating
to certain forecasted transactions to buy crude oil and sell gasoline in March
2003. The purpose of the hedges is to help protect the Company from the risk
that the refinery margin would decline with respect to the hedged crude oil and
refined products. To effect the hedges, the Company entered into gasoline and
crude oil futures transactions. Gains and losses reported in accumulated other
comprehensive income will be reclassified into income when the forecasted
transactions affect income. During the quarter ended January 31, 2003, the
Company marked the value of the outstanding hedges to fair value in accordance
with SFAS No. 133 and included $210,000 of loss in comprehensive income. The
ineffective portion of the hedges was a $31,000 gain and was included in cost of
sales for the quarter ended January 31, 2003.

At January 31, 2003, the Company had outstanding unsecured debt of $25.7
million and had no borrowings outstanding under its Credit Agreement. The
Company does not have significant exposure to changing interest rates on its
unsecured debt because the interest rates are fixed, the average maturity is
less than two years and such debt represents approximately 10% of the Company's
total capitalization. As the interest rates on the Company's bank borrowings are
reset frequently based on either the bank's daily effective prime rate, or the
LIBOR rate, interest rate market risk is very low. There have been no bank
borrowings in fiscal 2002, or thus far for fiscal 2003. Additionally, the
Company invests any available cash only in investment grade, highly liquid
investments with maturities of three months or less and hence the interest rate
market risk implicit in these cash investments is low. A one percent change in
the market interest rate over the next year would not materially impact the
Company's earnings or cash flow since the interest rates on the Company's
long-term debt are fixed and the Company's borrowings under the Credit
Agreement, if any, and cash investments are at short-term market rates and such
interest has historically not been significant as compared to the total
operations of the Company. A one percent change in the market interest rate over
the next year would not materially impact the Company's financial condition
since the average maturity of the Company's long-term debt is less than two
years, such debt represents approximately 10% of the Company's total
capitalization, and the Company's borrowings under the Credit Agreement and cash
investments are at short-term market rates.

25

HOLLY CORPORATION

The Company's operations are subject to normal hazards of operations,
including fire, explosion and weather-related perils. The Company maintains
various insurance coverages, including business interruption insurance, subject
to certain deductibles. The Company is not fully insured against certain risks
because such risks are not fully insurable, coverage is unavailable, or premium
costs, in the judgment of the Company, do not justify such expenditures. Shortly
after the events of September 11, 2001, the Company completed a security
assessment of its principal facilities. Several security measures identified in
the assessment have been implemented and others are in the process of being
implemented. Because of recent changes in insurance markets, insurance coverages
available to the Company are becoming more costly and in some cases less
available. So long as this current trend continues, the Company expects to incur
higher insurance costs and anticipates that, in some cases, it will be necessary
to reduce somewhat the extent of insurance coverages because of reduced
insurance availability at acceptable premium costs.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 142 "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets" which changes how goodwill and other intangible assets are
accounted for subsequent to their initial recognition. SFAS No. 142 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, with early adoption
permitted; however, all goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30,
2001, are immediately subject to the provisions of this statement. The Company
adopted the standard effective August 1, 2002 and there was no material effect
on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

In June 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 143 "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations" which requires that the fair value for an asset retirement
obligation be capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset
if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. SFAS No. 143 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002, with early adoption permitted.
The Company adopted the standard effective August 1, 2002 and there was no
material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or
cash flows.

In August 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". This statement supersedes SFAS No. 121
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed Of", but carries over the key guidance from SFAS No. 121 in
establishing the framework for the recognition and measurement of long-lived
assets to be disposed of by sale and addresses significant implementation
issues. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2001, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the standard effective
August 1, 2002 and there was no material effect on its financial condition,
results of operations, or cash flows.

In June 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 146 "Accounting for Certain Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" which nullifies Emerging Issues
Task Force ("EITF") 94-3 and requires that a liability for a cost associated
with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred
and establishes fair value as the objective for initial measurement of
liabilities. This differs from EITF 94-3 which stated that liabilities for exit
costs were to be recognized as of the date of an entity's commitment to an exit
plan. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are
initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company adopted SFAS No. 146 on January
1, 2003, and the

26

HOLLY CORPORATION

standard has had no effect on its financial condition, results of operations, or
cash flows.

In December 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 148 "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation--Transition and Disclosure", an amendment of SFAS No. 123. This
statement provides alternative methods of transition to SFAS 123's fair value
method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this
statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require disclosures
in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting
for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on
reported results. SFAS 148's amendment of the disclosure requirements is
effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. SFAS 148's
amendment of the transition and annual disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 are
effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002.

The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants has issued an
Exposure Draft for a Proposed Statement of Position, "Accounting for Certain
Costs and Activities Related to Property, Plant and Equipment" which would
require major maintenance activities to be expensed as costs are incurred. As of
January 31, 2003, the Company had approximately $10.4 million of deferred
maintenance costs, all relating to refinery turnarounds in prior periods, which
are being amortized over various benefit periods. The current monthly
amortization is $788,000. If this proposed Statement of Position had been
adopted in its current form, as of January 31, 2003, the Company would have been
required to expense, as of January 31, 2003, $10.4 million of deferred
maintenance costs and would be required to expense all future turnaround costs
as incurred.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

In November 2002, the Company settled by agreement litigation brought
in August 1998 by Longhorn Partners Pipeline, L.P. ("Longhorn Partners") against
the Company in a state court in El Paso, Texas and litigation brought in August
2002 by the Company against Longhorn Partners and related parties in a state
court in Carlsbad, New Mexico. A description of this litigation is included in
Item 3 "Legal Proceedings" of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended July 31, 2002. Under the settlement agreement, which was
developed in voluntary mediation, on November 26, 2002 the Company paid $25
million to Longhorn Partners as a prepayment for the transportation of 7,000 BPD
of refined products from the Gulf Coast to El Paso in a period of up to 6 years
from the date of the Longhorn Pipeline's start-up. Longhorn Partners has also
issued to the Company an unsecured $25 million promissory note, subordinated to
certain other indebtedness, that would become payable with interest in the event
that the Longhorn Pipeline does not begin operations by July 1, 2004 or to the
extent Longhorn Partners is unable to provide the Company the full amount of the
agreed transportation services. This settlement has resulted in a termination of
all litigation between the Company and Longhorn Partners and related parties. As
part of the settlement, the Company has terminated all support for opposition to
the Longhorn Pipeline except support for one family in two pending lawsuits
where an existing contractual obligation requires a continuation of such
support; the Company is seeking to enter into an agreement to terminate this
contractual obligation.

In November 2002, the Department of Defense issued final decisions
rejecting claims under the Contract Disputes Act, which were filed by the
Company in September 2002, asserting that additional amounts totaling
approximately $88 million are due to the Company with respect to jet fuel sales
to the Defense Fuel Supply Center in the years 1995 through 1999 (the "1995-99
Jet Fuel Claims"). Subsequent to these decisions, the Company in November 2002
filed an amended complaint in the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal
Circuit to add the 1995-99 Jet Fuel Claims to the Company's pending suit which
was filed in September 2002 and related originally to claims for the years 1982
through 1995. As a result of the amendment, the total amount sought in the
Company's suit for all years from 1982 through 1999 is approximately $298
million. In January 2003, the Federal Government filed a motion for partial
summary judgment in this suit, and in February 2003, the Company filed a cross
motion for partial summary judgment. It is not possible at the date of this
report to predict what amount, if any, will ultimately be payable to the Company
with respect to this lawsuit.

In September 2002, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC")
issued an order in proceedings brought by the Company and other parties against
Kinder Morgan's SFPP, L.P. ("SFPP") relating to tariffs of common carrier
pipelines, which are owned and operated by SFPP, for shipments of refined
products in the period from 1993 through July 2000 from El Paso, Texas to Tucson
and Phoenix, Arizona and from points in California to points in Arizona. The
Company is one of several refiners that regularly utilize an SFPP pipeline to
ship refined products from El Paso, Texas to Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona. The
September 2002 order resolved most remaining issues relating to SFPP's tariffs
on the pipelines to points in Arizona from 1993 through July 2000. On January
29, 2003, the FERC issued an order accepting most of the computations prepared
by SFPP pursuant to the September 2002 order and requiring a change in one item.
Based on the rulings made

HOLLY CORPORATION

by the FERC on this matter in the September 2002 and January 2003 orders, the
Company believes that under the final FERC decision for the years at issue the
Company would be entitled to a refund of approximately $15 million. SFPP has
indicated in filings with the FERC that it will pay refunds based on the FERC
decision on this matter after the FERC decision ceases to be subject to further
proceedings in the FERC and that such payment could be made as early as the
middle of April 2003. The final FERC decision on this matter is subject to
judicial review by the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. At
the date of this report, it is not possible to predict what may be the result of
judicial review proceedings on this matter in the Court of Appeals.

In October 2002, the Company filed a motion to intervene and protest
with the FERC with respect to a September 2002 petition for declaratory order
filed by SFPP. SFPP's filing concerns its proposal to expand the capacity of its
common carrier pipelines running from El Paso to Tucson and Phoenix by
approximately 54,000 BPD. The Company's protest asks the FERC to rule that the
costs of the proposed expansion should be reflected only in pipeline
transportation rates for use of the proposed additional capacity rather than in
rates for use of both the proposed additional capacity and the current capacity
of these pipelines. On January 29, 2003, the FERC issued an order that, along
with addressing other issues, ruled against the Company's position. In early
March 2003 the Company filed with the FERC a request for rehearing on this
matter.
