We are investigating possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law by the board of directors of HollyFrontier Corporation (“HollyFrontier” or the “Company”) (NYSE: HFC) in connection with the Company’s proposed merger with Sinclair Oil Corporation and Sinclair Transportation Company (“Sinclair”). Under the terms of the agreement, HollyFrontier will form a new parent company, named “HF Sinclair Corporation” (“HF Sinclair”), which will replace HollyFrontier as the public company trading on the NYSE. At the closing, existing shares of HollyFrontier will automatically convert on a one-for-one basis into shares of common stock of HF Sinclair, and HF Sinclair will issue approximately 60.2million shares of common stock to Sinclair. The transaction is valued at approximately $1.8 billion.
