IWT TESORO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2005

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include IWT Tesoro Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries International Wholesale Tile, Inc., IWT Tesoro International, Ltd, IWT Tesoro Transport, Inc. and The Tile Club, Inc. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Basis of Presentation

The interim financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the first three months of the year are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations which might be expected for the entire year.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly certain information and footnote disclosure required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements have been omitted. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s audited financial statements on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.

The Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2004 has been derived from the audited financial statements of IWT Tesoro Corporation at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB No. 25), and related interpretations, in accounting for its employee and board of director stock options rather than the alternative fair value accounting allowed by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. As amended by SFAS 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure” APB No. 25 provides that the compensation expense relative to the Company’s employee stock options is measured based on the intrinsic value of the stock option.

SFAS No. 123 requires companies that continue to follow APB No. 25 to provide pro forma disclosure of the impact of applying the fair value method of SFAS No. 123. The Company follows SFAS No. 123 in accounting for stock options issued to non-employees.

Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting forStock-Based Compensation,” and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its stock options under the fair value method of that Statement. The fair value for these options was estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the following weighted average assumptions for 2005 and 2004, respectively: risk-free interest rates of 4.50%, and 2.20%, dividend yields of 0% and 0%, volatility factors of the expected market price of the Company’s common stock of 60.79% and 21.51% and expected lives of ten years. Using these assumptions, the weighted average grant-date fair value per share of options granted in 2005 was $1.57 and in 2004 it was $1.21.

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options. For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options’ vesting period.

A total of 50,000 options were granted to directors of the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2005. During the three months ended March 31, 2004 a total of 45,000 options were granted to directors of the Company and 5,000 options were granted to employees. The effect on net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provision of the SFAS No. 123 are presented below:

	For the three months ended March 31,
	2005			2004
				(Restated)
Net income (loss) as reported	$	51,481		$	(640,504	)
Deduct: Stock-based employee compensation expense determined under the fair value based method for all options, net of related tax effects	(19,740		)	(54,563		)

Pro forma net income (loss)	$	31,741		$	(695,067	)

Earnings (loss) per share - Basic
As reported	$	0.00		$	(0.06	)
Pro forma	$	0.00		$	(0.06	)
Earnings (loss) per share - Diluted
As reported	$	0.00		$	(0.05	)
Pro forma	$	0.00		$	(0.06	)

Earnings per Share

Basic and diluted loss per share for the three month period ended March 31, 2004 are equal as the effect of the common stock options and warrants were antidilutive.

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes income taxes under the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the 2004 financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the 2005 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income (loss).

NOTE 2. RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company has restated the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2004 and the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the three months then ended as described below:

Accounts Receivable

Management determined that the Company had been incorrectly calculating the allowances for product returns. Management revised this calculation and determined that accounts receivable was overstated by $76,516 at March 31, 2004 and net sales were overstated by $21,516 for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

Accrued Expenses

Management determined that the Company had been incorrectly calculating the accruals for sales commissions. Management revised this calculation and determined that accrued expenses were understated by approximately $473,400 as of March 31, 2004.

Sample and Display Boards

Management reassessed its methodology for accounting for sample and display boards and determined that this promotional merchandise should have been expensed when distributed rather than capitalized and depreciated. The adjustments resulting from the restatement increased the net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2004 by approximately $412,000. This change also reduced property and equipment as of March 31, 2004 by approximately $3,392,000.

Deferred Taxes

In connection with the restatements for accounts receivable, accrued expenses and sample and display boards described above, the related tax effect was recorded resulting in gross deferred tax assets and the company recorded a valuation allowance, as needed, to reduce net deferred tax assets to an amount considered by management more likely than not to be realized.

Additional Paid in Capital

As part of the recapitalization transaction of IWT effective October 1, 2002, the Company and each of the three stockholders of International Wholesale Tile, Inc. entered into a repurchase agreement to commence on January 1, 2003. The maximum number of redeemable shares under the repurchase agreement was 450,000. On June 26, 2003, the Company voted to cancel the repurchase agreement. The transaction was accounted for by reducing additional paid in capital to the extent a balance existed with the remaining portion of the transaction applied to accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2002. As the result of the restatements described above, the recording of the cancellation of the repurchase agreement was also restated based on the restated balance in accumulated deficit and additional paid in capital.

The effects of these changes are summarized as follows:

	March 31, 2004

NOTE 5 NOTES PAYABLE, REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT

On December 31, 2004, the Company amended and restated the existing revolving line of credit agreement providing up to $25,000,000 with interest rates of either (1) LIBOR plus 3.00% or (2) the base rate plus 0.50% (interest rates ranging from 5.22% to 7.09% at March 31, 2005) payable monthly. The line of credit is limited by a borrowing base which is comprised of a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventories, as defined, and is collateralized by substantially all the assets of the Company. The balance due at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 was $19,034,952 and $16,047,220, respectively. The line matures September 10, 2006 and contains certain covenants requiring the Company to maintain a certain leverage ratio, a required minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and certain inventory turnover ratio. At March 31, 2005 the Company was not in compliance with the leverage and fixed charge coverage ratio requirement. The Company was granted a waiver of these covenants by our commercial lender.

For the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, interest expense related to the credit line amounted to $255,625 and $101,829 respectively.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read along with our financial statements, which are included in another section of this filing.

Some statements made in this Quarterly Report are “forward-looking statements” and are not historical facts. For example, statements regarding our financial position, business strategy and other plans and objectives for future operations, and assumptions and predictions about future demand for our services and products, supply, costs, marketing and pricing factors are all forward-looking statements. When we use words like “intend,” “would”, “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan” or “expect” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions we are making forward- looking statements. You should be aware that these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Additionally, our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. Other than as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise these statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. New factors emerge from time to time that may cause our business not to develop as we expect, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. Factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include, among other things:

• Our ability to successfully implement our business plan, including expanding our markets, increasing our product lines, and maintaining high quality customer service;

• Continuing and cultivating our relationships with current and new vendors;

• Funding our growth in a manner that is beneficial to our stockholders;

• Trends affecting our financial condition or results of operations, the impact of competition, the start-up of certain operations, roll out of products and services and acquisition opportunities;

• Restraints on pricing flexibility due to competitive conditions in the flooring industry, while taking into consideration factors beyond our control such as increases in freight and tariff charges, currency risks, and political conditions;

• Depending on third party suppliers outside the United States;

• The impact of adverse weather conditions, both in our targeted markets, as well as with respect to our foreign suppliers; and

• Other risks referenced from time to time in our SEC filings.

A part of preparing its Form 10-K, filed on April 15, 2005, management concluded it should restate its previously issued financial statement since the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 and through September 31, 2004. The restatements are a result of management’s reassessing its methodology for accounting for certain transactions. The Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2004 have been prepared according to the new methodology and may be relied upon. Tesoro is working diligently to complete the restated financial statements, but as of the date filing this Form 10-Q for the first quarter ended March 31, 2005 the restated Financial Statements have not be filed. Accordingly, Tesoro’s Consolidated Financial Statements previously filed for the years ended 2003 and 2002 and for the interim periods within those years should no longer be relied upon.

General

IWT Tesoro Corporation (the Company) was organized in Nevada on May 3rd, 2000, originally under the name “Ponca Acquisition Corporation”. Effective October 1, 2002, Tesoro acquired all of International Wholesale Tile, Inc.’s (IWT) common stock from IWT’s three shareholders. IWT was organized in Florida and has been in continuous operations since 1994. In exchange for the IWT stock, the IWT shareholders each received 3.0 million Tesoro shares, representing 87% of Tesoro’s then outstanding common stock.

In addition to IWT, Tesoro’s primary operating subsidiary, Tesoro has three additional wholly owned subsidiaries. These include:

• IWT Tesoro Transport, a USDOT licensed common carrier, organized to act as our freight carrier outside of Florida and to back haul non-household goods into Florida to help generate outside revenue, which has been insignificant through March 31, 2005;

• IWT Tesoro International, Ltd., a Bermuda corporation to act as a holding company for activities and assets such as agency agreements and investments in foreign operations; and

• The Tile Club, Inc., formed in 2004, was organized to acquire licensing, manufacturing and distribution rights for high-end designer and artistic based decorative tiles and to also act as an agent for foreign manufacturers from whom IWT has acquired exclusive distribution rights.

Our principal executive office is located at 191 Post Road West, Suite 10, Westport, CT 06880. Our telephone number is (203) 221-2770. Our web site can be found at http://www.iwttesoro.com. Information contained on our web site is not part of this report.

Quarter ended March 31, 2005 Compared to Quarter March 31, 2004

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased $4,158,346 or approximately 43.6% over the reported net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2004. This growth follows a 42.0% increase in net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2004 over the three months ended March 31, 2003. The Company expects to maintain its strong growth rate as a result of continued expansion into national markets.

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $5,129,985 (37.5% of net sales) compared to $3,724,218 (39.1% of net sales) for the three months ended March 31, 2004. We anticipated a somewhat lower gross profit percentage as a result of the expansion of our wholesale and home center store customer base business. We expect the gross profit percentage to stabilize at approximately 38% in the future.

Our operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2005 were $4,895,825 (35.7% of net sales) compared to $4,248,909 (44.5% of net sales) for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The decrease in the current percentage of operating expenses was a result of the Company beginning to realize economies of scale.

Changes in Financial Position for the three months ended March 31, 2005 from the year ended December 31, 2004

Accounts receivable and inventory have increased by $743,077 and $1,524,795 respectively at the three month period ended March 31, 2005 from the year ended December 31, 2004. The increases in these account balances relate primarily to our growth in sales during the three months ended March 31, 2005. Our accounts receivable balance at March 31, 2005 represented approximately 1.81 months of sales. The inventory turns for the same period was 1.48 times.

We also increased our investment in property and equipment by $34,005 net of depreciation ($78,100) for the three months ended March 31, 2005 from the year ended December 31, 2004.

Our liabilities for accounts payable decreased $929,240 and long term debt increased $2,966,361 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 from the year ended December 31, 2004. The net increase in our liabilities relates directly to the financing of our sales growth.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had cash balances of approximately $484,800 at March 31, 2005 and $507,700 at December 31, 2004. We have financed our growth with new equity capital and increased borrowings from our commercial lender.

Our line of credit is $25 million; an amount the Company expects to be sufficient to support its growth in accounts receivable and inventory through 2005. Our rapid growth is expected to continue to require the Company to seek outside capital to supplement earnings and maintain and strengthen our balance sheet. We believe that the working capital required to finance the necessary growth in inventory will be provided by our existing line of credit. We expect to raise additional equity through both the public and private markets during 2005. However, we cannot assure anyone that we will be able to obtain outside capital, or if we do, that it will be on terms beneficial to us.

The balance due at March 31, 2005 to our commercial lender for the use of the revolving line of credit was approximately $19.0 million. The loan and security agreement contains certain covenants, which include financial covenants that require us to maintain a certain leverage ratio, limit our unfunded capital expenditures, a required minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and a certain inventory turnover ratio. At March 31, 2005 the Company was not in compliance with the leverage and fixed charge coverage ratio requirement. The Company was granted a waiver of these covenants by our commercial lender. We believe that our relationship with our commercial lender is good and that they will continue to support the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies

In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the Company must make decisions which impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures. Such decisions include the selection of appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. In reaching such decisions, the Company applies judgment based on its understanding and analysis of the relevant circumstances and historical experience. Actual amounts could differ from those estimated at the time the consolidated financial statements are prepared.

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2004. Some of those significant accounting policies require the Company to make subjective or complex judgments or estimates. Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are both most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results and require management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.

The Company believes the following accounting policies require it to use judgments and estimates in preparing its consolidated financial statements and could represent critical accounting policies.

• Accounts receivable and revenue recognition. Revenues are recognized when goods are shipped and legal title passes to the customer. The Company provides an allowance for expected doubtful accounts based upon historical bad debt and claims experience and periodic evaluation of specific customer accounts and the aging of accounts receivable. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

• Inventories are stated at the average landed cost, which matches current costs with current revenues. Inventories on hand are compared against anticipated future usage, which is a function of historical usage and anticipated future selling price, in order to evaluate obsolescence, excessive quantities, and expected sales below cost. Actual results could differ from assumptions used to value obsolete, excessive inventory or inventory expected to be sold below cost.

• Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax rates is recognized in earnings (loss) in the period that includes the enactment date. Additionally, taxing jurisdictions could retroactively disagree with the Company’s tax treatment of certain items, and some historical transactions have income tax effects going forward. Accounting rules require these future effects to be evaluated using current laws, rules and regulations, each of which can change at any time and in an unpredictable manner.

Segment Information

We manage our operations in one segment and all revenue is derived from customers in the United States.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Information about the Company’s exposure to market risk was disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2005. No material quantitative or qualitative changes in market risk exposure has occurred since the date of that filings

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Tesoro’s management, with participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have performed an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)) to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Tesoro in the reports that Tesoro files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms.

Based on that evaluation, Tesoro’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms. At this time, management has determined that the Company’s current system of disclosure controls and procedures may not be sufficient i) to ensure that data errors, control problems, or acts of fraud are detected and ii) to confirm that appropriate corrective action, including process improvements, is undertaken in a timely manner.

Attached as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this Quarterly Report are certifications of the CEO and the CFO, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act). This Controls and Procedures section includes the information concerning the controls evaluation referred to in the certifications and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications.

Definition of Disclosure Controls

Disclosure controls are controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Tesoro’s reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported timely. Disclosure Controls are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that its disclosure controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Tesoro have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Deficiencies in the Company’s Controls and Procedures

In connection with preparing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Tesoro’s management identified deficiencies in its methodologies that it considered being material weaknesses in the effectiveness of Tesoro’s internal disclosure controls pursuant to standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A “material weakness” is a reportable condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the specific internal control components has a defect or defects that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data in the financial statements in a timely manner. The material weaknesses identified by Tesoro include the following:

• Promotional merchandise should have been expensed when distributed rather than capitalized and depreciated;

• Tesoro had incorrectly estimated the accruals for sales related expenses; and

• Incorrectly estimated its allowances for product returns and the allowances.

As a result, Tesoro’s management concluded that certain accounting errors occurred in its previously issued financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, each of the three fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2003, June 30, 2003 and September 30, 2003, the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 and each of the three fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2004, June 30, 2004 and September 30, 2004.

Based upon the results of management’s investigation of the accounting errors, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the accounting errors resulted from material weaknesses in the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, particularly in the areas of documented policies and procedures along with competent personnel. Detailed validation work was performed by the Company’s internal personnel in order to substantiate the financial information contained in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures that are contained in financial statements noted above.

Management’s Response and Plan for Improvement

Management discussed the proposed restatement of the specified financial statements and information with Tesoro’s Audit Committee, financial consultants and both current and former independent auditors who concur with management’s assessments. On March 19, 2005, the Audit Committee reported on its discussions with its management and the current auditors to Tesoro’s Board of Directors with respect to the restatements who supported their conclusions. On March 21, 2005, Tesoro filed a report on Form 8-K concerning these errors and advised that its Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended 2003 and 2002 and for the interim periods should no longer be relied upon and that the restatement would not have any effect on the Company’s gross revenue for any periods or on its cash flow.

As a result management has responded to these deficiencies by developing a plan to implement the following controls and procedural enhancements, designed to improve the Company’s disclosure controls:

•		Capitalization and amortization of asset balances - i) regular detailed analyses of fixed assets and accumulated depreciation accounts should be performed by preparing detailed account reconciliations, and ii) on a timely basis, account reconciliations and other significant transactions should be reviewed by an appropriate member of management;

•		Recording and processing transactions - transactions must be supported by i) appropriate transaction documentation and ii) appropriate documentation of review by management;

•		Reconciliation of accounts - detailed reconciliations of subsidiary accounts to the general ledger must be performed on a regular basis, and quarterly accounting review procedures must be enhanced by requiring an appropriate member of management to perform an independent review of material general ledger accounts and reserves;

•		Management review of journal entries, account balances and financial statements - all material journal entries must be reviewed and approved by an appropriate member of management;

•		Internal audit function - an internal audit function should conduct audit procedures and test internal controls in order to ensure that the Company’s policies and procedures for transactional recording, transactional review, segregation of duties, and review of significant transactions at the appropriate level of management are both effective and being followed; and

•		Competent personnel - staffing should be enhanced to provide sufficient resources to accomplish the foregoing objectives.

Status of Management’s Plan for Improvement

As of March 31, 2005, Tesoro has made the following progress in the implementation of its plan for improvement:

•		Recording and processing transactions - controls are being implemented which require transactions to be supported by i) appropriate transaction documentation and ii) documentation that the transaction has been reviewed and approved by an appropriate member of management;

•		Reconciliation of accounts - policies and controls are being implemented which require regular reconciliations of subsidiary accounts to the general ledger, with timely review by an appropriate member of management. Procedures regarding the quarterly accounting review are being enhanced by requiring independent reviews of account reconciliations, material general ledger accounts, and reserves;

•		Management review of journal entries, account balances and financial statements - controls and procedures are being implemented which require that all material journal entries are reviewed and approved by an appropriate member of management;

•		Internal audit function - the Company has engaged a registered public accounting firm, which is not affiliated with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, to perform the internal audit function (the “Internal Auditor”). The Internal Auditor has conducted, and will continue to conduct, internal audit procedures and tests of internal controls to ensure that the Company’s controls and procedures for transactional recording, transactional review, segregation of duties, and review of significant transactions at the appropriate level of management are both effective and being followed; and

•		Competent personnel - the Company has made, and will continue to make, appropriate staffing enhancements in order to provide sufficient resources to accomplish the Company’s objectives of recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, Tesoro’s financial information.

Management believes that the disclosure controls and procedures, which have been, and are continuing to be, implemented, are addressing the identified deficiencies in Tesoro’s system of disclosure controls. Management will, on an ongoing basis,

further monitor and assess the implementation of its plan to improve the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, and will take action as appropriate.

Exclusive of implementing the changes in Tesoro’s procedures and control resulting from management’s improvements described above, there have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation described in the preceding section.

We are in the process of implementing the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 which requires our management to assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and include an assertion in our 2005 annual report as to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. Subsequently, our independent registered public accounting firm, McGladrey & Pullen LLP, will be required to attest to whether our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting is fairly stated in all material respects and separately report on whether it believes we maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006. We are in the process of performing the system and process documentation, evaluation and testing required for management to make this assessment and for the registered public accounting firm to provide its attestation report. We have not completed this process or its assessment, and this process will require significant amounts of management time and resources. In the course of evaluation and testing, management may identify deficiencies that would need to be addressed and remediate.
