On April 30, 2021, Holly Energy Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership"), as borrower, certain of its affiliates, as guarantors, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and an issuing bank, and the financial institutions party thereto as lenders entered into that certain Amendment No. 1 to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Amendment"), which amended certain terms of that certain Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 27, 2017 by and among the Partnership, as borrower, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and an issuing bank, and each of the financial institutions party thereto from time to time as lenders (as amended by the Amendment, the "Credit Agreement"). Pursuant to the Amendment, the maturity date under the Credit Agreement will be extended to July 27, 2025 and the commitments shall be reduced from $1.4 billion to $1.2 billion; provided that the Credit Agreement will continue to provide for an accordion feature that allows the Partnership to increase commitments under the Credit Agreement up to a maximum amount of $1.7 billion, subject to satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. The sublimit for letters of credit under the Credit Agreement is $50 million, which sublimit amount can be increased at the Partnership's election up to $100 million upon satisfaction of certain terms and conditions specified in the Credit Agreement.

Prior to the Investment Grade Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement), Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement will bear interest, at the Partnership's option, at either (a) the reference rate as announced by the administrative agent plus an applicable margin (ranging from 0.75% to 1.75%) or (b) at a rate equal to the interest rate per annum reported by Bloomberg L.P. in its index of rates applicable to Dollar deposits in the London interbank market plus an applicable margin (ranging from 1.75% to 2.75%). In each case, the applicable margin is based upon the Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the four most recently completed fiscal quarters. Prior to the Investment Grade Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement), the Partnership incurs a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Credit Agreement at a rate ranging from 0.300% to 0.500% based upon the Total Leverage Ratio for the four most recently completed fiscal quarters. After the Investment Grade Date, indebtedness under the Credit Agreement will bear interest, at the Partnership's option, at either (a) the reference rate as announced by the administrative agent plus an applicable margin (ranging from 0.25% to 1.125%) or (b) at a rate equal to the interest rate per annum reported by Bloomberg L.P. in its index of rates applicable to Dollar deposits in the London interbank market plus an applicable margin (ranging from 1.25% to 2.125%). In each case, the applicable margin is based upon the rating issued from time to time by Moody's and S&P, as applicable, to the Partnership's senior, unsecured, non-credit enhanced long-term debt. After the Investment Grade Date, the Partnership will incur a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Credit Agreement at a rate ranging from 0.150% to 0.350% based upon the Partnership's senior, unsecured, non-credit enhanced long-term debt.
