Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On April 10, 2018, R. Kevin Hardage, a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of HollyFrontier Corporation (the “Company”), notified the Board that he withdraws his name from nomination for re-election to the Board at the Company’s 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). Mr. Hardage will continue to serve on the Board as a director through the certification of the results of the vote at the Annual Meeting. The Board has determined that it will not nominate a replacement director for election at the Annual Meeting, and, as a result, the Board reduced the size of the Board to ten directors effective as of the certification of the results of the vote at the Annual Meeting.
