On November 18, 2013, HollyFrontier Corporation (the “Company” or “HollyFrontier”) announced that the State of Utah has issued an air permit for the planned expansion of its subsidiary’s Woods Cross Refinery from 31,000 barrels per day to 45,000 barrels per day. HollyFrontier expects that the expansion will be completed in

The following is a “safe harbor” statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: The statements contained herein relating to matters that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements are based on the Company’s beliefs and assumptions using currently available information and expectations as of the date hereof, are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks and uncertainties. Although the Company believes that such expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot give assurance that its expectations will prove to be correct. Therefore, actual outcomes and results could materially differ from what is expressed, implied or forecast in these statements. Any differences could be caused by a number of factors including, but not limited to:

| |
• | 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, curtailments or shutdowns in refinery operations or pipelines; |
| |
• | effects of governmental and environmental regulations and policies; |
| |
• | the availability and cost of financing to HollyFrontier; |
| |
• | the effectiveness of HollyFrontier's capital investments and marketing strategies; |
| |
• | HollyFrontier's efficiency in carrying out construction projects; |
| |
• | the ability of HollyFrontier to acquire refined product operations or pipeline and terminal operations on acceptable terms and to integrate any future acquired operations; |
| |
• | the possibility of terrorist attacks and the consequences of any such attacks; |
| |
• | general economic conditions; and |
| |
• | other financial, operational and legal risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in HollyFrontier's Securities and Exchange Commission filings. |
