Crude Types Driving Alon’s Profitability

Brent – Brent is the global crude benchmark. Brent pricing largely determines global product prices (prices for gasoline, diesel, etc.). The U.S. exports refined products, competing directly with other global refineries whose feedstock costs (crude purchase prices) are related to Brent crude

West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) – WTI is the benchmark light sweet crude for the U.S. and is priced in Cushing, Oklahoma. An additional pricing point for WTI is Midland, TX, which is approximately 40 miles from Alon’s Big Spring refinery

− Big Spring was processing 25,000 bpd of WTI in early August

− Alon’s Krotz Springs refinery has access to 30,000 bpd of WTI Midland crude through the AMDEL pipeline

West Texas Sour (“WTS”) – WTS is priced in Midland, TX and contains higher sulfur content compared to WTI (the sulfur content is what makes it a sour crude)

− WTS has historically been the largest component of Big Spring’s crude slate, accounting for approximately 75% of Big Spring’s throughput in the first half of 2013

− WTS has historically priced below WTI in Midland due to the lower quality (higher sulfur content) of WTS relative to WTI

Light Louisiana Sweet (“LLS”) – LLS is a light sweet crude priced in St. James, LA and is the benchmark for light sweet Gulf Coast crude. Approximately 50% of the crude processed at Alon’s Krotz Springs refinery in the first half of 2013 was Gulf Coast sweet crude

Crude Oil & Product Crack Trends

Following an average discount of $11.41/bbl between WTS and WTI Cushing in Q1 of 2013, differentials narrowed towards parity in Q2 of 2013 relative to the 5-year average spread of $2.90/bbl and 2012 spreads of $5.46/bbl

Brent and WTI approached parity in July 2013 as several one-time issues led to a tightened Mid-Continent crude market. The Brent-WTI spread widened to over $6.00/bbl in late August as supply concerns related to geopolitical risk have supported Brent prices

The strength in Brent prices caused Brent to trade at a premium to LLS in late August after trading at a discount to LLS for much of 2013. As domestic crude production overwhelms light sweet refining capacity on the Gulf Coast, LLS is expected to trade at a sustainable discount to Brent benefiting light sweet crude refineries such as Krotz Springs

Analysts1 expect WTI-based crudes to trade at a discount to international benchmarks over the next few years, providing a sustainable feedstock advantage for Mid-Continent refineries like Big Spring

Analysts’ forecasts for the Brent-WTI spread are shown below:

Brent-WTI Spread Composite Forecast 2

1 We believe analysts’ forecasts are a better indication of the Brent-WTI spread in out years than the Brent and WTI forward curves due to the lower liquidity in out-year contracts and other factors that can skew the forward curves. Analysts’ projections take into consideration projections for growth in the U.S. crude supply, planned pipeline projects and transportation differentials that contribute to the discount in WTI.

2 Composite forecast consists of the average annual estimates from Barclays, Goldman Sachs & Morgan Stanley for 2014-2016; 2017 forecast from Morgan Stanley not available; forecasts as of August 16, 2013

Big Spring sources substantially all of its crude oil locally from the Permian Basin

The Permian Basin is experiencing a drilling and production renaissance, with 470 active rigs in August 2013 vs. the full-year average in 2010 of less than 300 rigs

Analysts expect Permian production to exit 2015 above 1,770 Mbpd – a 42% increase from the 2012 exit rate of 1,244 Mbpd

Largest oil and natural gas producing basin in the United States based on total proved reserves

Commercial accumulations of hydrocarbons occur in several rock layers, at depths ranging from approximately 1,000 to over 25,000 feet

Stacked horizons of the Permian Basin allow significant opportunity for multiple completions in a single well bore and the potential for both vertical and horizontal completions

Reserves in the Permian Basin are generally characterized as long lived, and the basin has substantial existing infrastructure and well-developed network of oilfield service providers

Howard County, where Big Spring is located, had 30 rigs operating as of August1

Organic Growth Opportunities at Krotz Springs

Terminal and Logistics Initiatives:

Completed work to put our Krotz Springs crude oil rail rack into service and received our first rail cars of crude in late June 2013

Crude oil receipts are ramping up, and Krotz Springs received approximately 2,500 bpd by rail in July 2013

The current capacity of the rack is 9,000 bpd, expandable to 14,000 bpd, but we will initially be restricted by railroad operations and tank car availability

Increasing the amount of crude delivered by truck to the refinery continues to be a goal, with volume now at about 10,000 bpd at Krotz Springs

Operational Initiatives:

Benefiting from efforts to improve distillate recovery and reduce FCC catalyst costs at the plant

Have begun selling a benzene-rich light product stream as a feedstock for BTX units. The contained Benzene is priced at $50/bbl above its value in gasoline contributing over $400,000/month to gross margins

Short term low cost projects which will drive meaningful return at Krotz Springs

California Refining Overview

Integrated refining complex with a throughput capacity of 70,000 bpd

In Q4 of 2012, ceased operations for interim period while reconfiguring crude mix from heavy to light crudes which will allow the system to utilize its high distillate production capability (~44%) and reduce lower value heavy product yields (primarily asphalt)

In the interim, significantly reduced operating expenses in California; leveraging logistics assets

- Providing rail and loading services to third parties; completed agreement with West Coast refiner to provide rail services from our Willbridge, Oregon terminal

- West Coast logistics business currently contributes $10 million in annual EBITDA

Submitted permit applications for rail unloading facility at Bakersfield capable of unloading two unit trains per day (140 Mbpd combined), which will allow rail shipments of light Mid-Continent crudes such as Bakken and WTI to replace heavy West Coast crudes (expect to receive permits by year-end 2013)

In the longer term, the California system is expected to benefit from a significant increase in light sweet Monterey shale oil production (the EIA estimates the Monterey shale has 20 billion barrels of recoverable resources representing 64% of the total recoverable shale oil in the lower 48 states)

Flexible Refining Assets Have Enabled Crude Slate Shift Towards Advantaged Crudes

Alon’s Consolidated Crude Slate 1

1 Other includes heavy crude, medium sour crude, and blendstocks. Chart includes California refining operations, which were suspended in November 2012.

Alon’s crude slate has shifted increasingly towards WTI-linked crudes to take advantage of discounted Mid Continent crude oil pricing since 2011

Processed 65% WTI-linked crudes in the twelve months ended June 30, 2013, up from 42% in 2011, reducing exposure to more expensive Gulf Coast sweet crudes (such as LLS)

Mitigating RINs Exposure

The Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”) requires refiners to blend a certain amount of renewable fuels into gasoline and diesel. Compliance with the RFS is monitored through Renewable Identification Numbers (“RINs”)

RINs prices have increased as the industry approaches the “blend wall” – the point where the industry is required to blend more renewable fuels than can be supported by demand for E-10 and E-85 gasoline

Alon’s increasing branded and unbranded sales contributes to ability to generate RINs internally

– Branded and unbranded sales increased 16% year-over-year in 2Q 2013

Biodiesel blending at Big Spring is set to begin in September 2013

Full-year RINs cost expected to total $20 million (assuming RIN costs of approximately $1/gallon)

– $8 million in RINs costs expensed in 2Q 2013

EPA announcement on August 6 acknowledged the issues with the ethanol blend wall and indicated flexibility in setting the 2014 renewable blending requirement, resulting in lower RIN prices

Received correspondence from the EPA in August evidencing the approval of a one-year extension exempting Krotz Springs from the requirements of RFS. As a result, the Krotz Springs refinery will be exempt from RFS for calendar year 2013
