"Since the acquisition of Golden Eagle in May of 2002, we have reduced term debt by over $140 million despite facing some of the lowest industry crack spreads of the last five years. In June June: see month. , I announced a debt reduction program that included the disposition Act of disposing; transferring to the care or possession of another.

The final settlement of a matter and, with reference to decisions announced by a court, a judge's ruling is commonly referred to as disposition, regardless of  of assets, reductions in our capital expenditures program and working capital needs, operating cost reductions and synergies. I am proud of the results we have achieved with this program. In the face of this adverse margin environment, we successfully sold over $200 million in assets, cut capital expenditures by over $70 million from our original plan, reduced expenses by $10 million and achieved $14 million in operating synergies," stated Smith.

"Debt reduction is our top priority and I am committed to achieving the targeted $500 million debt reduction goal I set last June. This means that we are going to continue to lower our cost structure and improve the efficiency of our organization -- both operationally and administratively," added Smith.

their dates of acquisition. The Company acquired the Mid-Continent
operations in September 2001 and the California refinery and related
assets in mid-May 2002.

    Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts
to conform to the current period presentation, principally to
reclassify amortization of major maintenance turnaround costs from
operating expenses to depreciation and amortization and to net
purchases and sales considered to be energy trading contracts.

(e) Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts
    to conform to the current period presentation. The value of
    internally-produced fuel has been reclassified from Manufacturing
    Costs and is shown as a reduction to Gross Refining Margin.
    Reclassifications for the value of internally-produced fuel
    amounted to $1.30 per barrel and $1.11 per barrel for the three
    months ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $1.09
    per barrel and $1.18 per barrel for the years ended December 31,
    2002 and 2001, respectively. In addition, non-cash amortization of
    major maintenance costs were reclassified from Manufacturing Costs
    to Depreciation and Amortization.

(f) Manufacturing costs are primarily operating cash costs directly
    associated with the manufacturing process, and as decribed in (e)
    above, exclude non-cash amortization of maintenance turnaround
    costs and value of internally produced fuel.

(g) Approximates total Refining segment throughput times gross
    refining margin, adjusted for changes in refined product inventory
    due to selling a volume and mix of product that is different than
    actual volumes manufactured. Also includes the effect of
    intersegment sales to the Retail segment at prices which
    approximate market. In addition, during the 2002 third quarter,
    certain inventory quantities were reduced resulting in the
    liquidation of applicable LIFO inventory quantities carried at
    lower costs. This reduction in LIFO inventory is part of the
    Company's working capital management program and resulted in a
    decrease in cost of sales of approximately $5 million and a
    decrease in net loss of $3 million for the year ended December 31,
    2002.

(h) Includes manufacturing depreciation per throughput barrel of
    approximately $0.43 and $0.36 for the three months ended December
    31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $0.40 and $0.28 for the years
    ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Also includes
    amortization of major maintenance costs of $0.17 per barrel and
    $0.18 per barrel for the three months ended December 31, 2002 and
    2001, respectively, and $0.16 per barrel and $0.20 per barrel for
    the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
