This Current Report on Form 8-K/A of Holly Energy Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”) amends the Partnership’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 4, 2016 (the “Original Filing”).

As disclosed in the Original Filing, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Holly Logistic Services, L.L.C. (the “Company”), the ultimate general partner of the Partnership, appointed Mark A. Plake as President of the Company effective February 15, 2016. This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends the Original Filing to set forth the material terms of Mr. Plake’s compensation as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board on February 15, 2016.
 
The Compensation Committee of the Board approved the following compensation for Mr. Plake effective February 15, 2016: a base salary of $385,000 and a target bonus of 55%. In addition, on February 15, 2016, Mr. Plake received an equity award of $525,000, half of which was granted in restricted units and half of which was granted in performance units. The terms of his equity award are the same as the terms of the equity awards granted to the Company’s other executive officers that received equity awards from the Partnership. Effective February 15, 2016, Mr. Plake also entered into the Partnership’s previously disclosed form of Change in Control Agreement.

Except as described herein, no other changes have been made to our Original Filing.
