Introduction to Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information

As previously disclosed on June 17, 2013, Hawaii Pacific Energy, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“HPE” or the “Buyer”) and wholly owned subsidiary of Par Petroleum Corporation, entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (as amended, the “TSO Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the TSO Purchase Agreement, the Buyer agreed to acquire (the “Acquisition”) from Tesoro Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Seller”), all of the issued and outstanding units (the “Purchased Units”) representing the membership interests in Tesoro Hawaii, LLC, a Hawaii limited liability company subsequently renamed Hawaii Independent Energy, LLC (“HIE”), and indirectly HIE’s wholly owned subsidiary, Smiley’s Super Service, Inc., a Hawaii corporation (the “Acquired Subsidiary”). HIE and the Acquired Subsidiary own, operate and use (i) a petroleum refinery located at the Xxxxxxxx Industrial Park in Kapolei, Hawaii (the “Refinery”), (ii) certain pipeline assets, floating pipeline mooring equipment, and refined products terminals, and (iii) retail assets selling fuel products and merchandise on the islands of Oahu, Maui and Hawaii.

On September 25, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), the Buyer completed the Acquisition for an aggregate purchase price, including the $25.0 million deposit previously paid, of $75.0 million, paid in cash at the closing plus certain contingent earnout payments of up to $40.0 million. The earnout payments, if any, are to be paid annually following each of the three calendar years beginning January 1, 2014, through the year ending December 31, 2016, in an amount equal to 20% of the consolidated annual gross margin of HIE in excess of $165 million during such calendar years, with an annual cap of $20 million. In the event that the Refinery ceases operations or in the event Buyer disposes of any facility used in the acquired business, Buyer’s obligation to make earnout payments could be modified and/or accelerated as provided in the TSO Purchase Agreement. The consideration was paid with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of 143,884,892 shares of common stock in a private placement transaction, as well as, from amounts received pursuant to supply and exchange agreements with Barclays Bank PLC and an ABL credit facility with Deutche Bank AG New York Branch.

Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1.   Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013

The pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations are presented as if the acquisition of HIE, which closed on September 25, 2013, occurred on January 1, 2012. The adjustments to the pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were as follows:

A.   Company Historical

Derived from the Company’s unaudited historical consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

B.   HIE Historical

Derived from HIE’s unaudited historical consolidated statement of operations for the period from January 1, 2013 through September 25, 2013.

C.   Financing Costs

To fund the acquisition of HIE on September 25, 2013, the Company entered into an ABL credit facility and drew $15.0 million and incurred loan costs of approximately $2.3 million. The facility bore interest at a rate of 4.5%, as of September 25, 2013, and matures September 25, 2017. As a result of this transaction, the Company would have incurred additional financing costs of approximately $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

In addition, the Company used a portion of the net proceeds from its private placement to repay approximately $46.8 million of its existing debt. As a result, financing costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 would have decreased by approximately $3.9 million.

X.   Xxxxxxxxxxx and Gain on Disposal of Assets

Effective December 31, 2012, HIE reclassified its assets as available for sale. As a result, HIE recorded impairments representing those assets’ estimated fair values and recognized a liability for estimated asset retirement obligations totaling approximately $248.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. On June 17, 2013, upon entering into the TSO Purchase Agreement, HIE reversed the liability for asset retirement obligations and recognized a gain of approximately $14.3 million in the statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

X.   Xxxxxxxxxxxx and Amortization Expense

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, HIE recorded depreciation and amortization expense totaling approximately $1.3 million. As of the closing of the Acquisition, the carrying value of HIE’s tangible and intangible assets were adjusted to their estimated fair value. Pro forma estimated depreciation and amortization expense was follows (dollars in thousands):

		Remaining Useful Life (Years)			Fair Value				Annual Depreciation
Refinery real estate			47		$	1,360			$	29
Refinery Machinery &Equipment			10			38,359				3,836
