The 2009 financials have been re-presented to reflect the impact of discontinued operations related to the Teesside Facility and the Antwerp Processing Facility. The comparative earnings per share have been restated to retroactively reflect the discount provided to shareholders in the September 2009 rights issue. As the rights issue was offered at a discount (CHF 16.90) to market value (CHF 26.70) the weighted average number of shares outstanding was adjusted in accordance with IAS 33 Earnings per Share. The adjustment resulted in an increase in the weighted average shares outstanding, both basic and diluted, of approximately 8 %.

Operating and Financial Review

Management Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and the Results of Operations Activities in the First Half-Year 2010
Disposal of the Antwerp Processing Facility
On October 23, 2009, the Company, through certain of its subsidiaries, entered into a definitive agreement with Eurotank Belgium B.V., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vitol Tank Terminals International B.V., part of the Vitol Group of companies, for the sale of its Antwerp Processing Facility. The sale was completed on January 12, 2010. The cash proceeds received were USD 55.0 million.

The following discussion and analysis is derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the Petroplus Holdings AG Interim Financial Statements and the related notes to those financial statements included elsewhere in this Half-Year Report. The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations contains forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions about future business developments. As a result of many factors, including the risks set forth under the caption Risks Relating to Our Business and Our Industry in our 2009 Annual Report and elsewhere in this Half-Year Report, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking statements.

Acquisition of Delaware City Refinery Assets by Investment Vehicle PBF


On June 1, 2010, the Companys investment vehicle, PBF Energy Company LLC (PBF), completed its purchase of the Delaware City Refinery in Delaware City, Delaware from Valero Energy Corporation. On May 28, 2010, the Company contributed USD 76.4 million to PBF. Major maintenance work at the refinery will begin in the third quarter 2010 and PBF plans to restart the refinery in the first half of 2011. The terminal assets will continue to operate through this period. The Company expects to contribute an additional USD 48.6 million to PBF in 2010 and early 2011 in connection with PBFs acquisition of the Delaware City Refinery.

Company Overview
Petroplus Holdings AG, together with its subsidiaries, (Petroplus, the Company, the Group, we, our, or us) is the largest independent refiner and wholesaler of petroleum products in Europe. The Company is focused on refining and currently owns and operates six refineries across Europe: The Coryton Refinery on the Thames Estuary in the United Kingdom, the Belgium Refining Corporation Refinery (BRC) in Antwerp, Belgium, the Petit Couronne Refinery in Petit Couronne, France, the Ingolstadt Refinery in Ingolstadt, Germany, the Reichstett Refinery near Strasbourg, France, and the Cressier Refinery in the canton of Neuchtel, Switzerland. The six refineries have a combined throughput capacity of approximately 752,000 barrels per day (bpd). The Company also owns the Teesside Facility in Teesside, United Kingdom. The Company sells refined petroleum products on an unbranded basis to distributors and end customers, primarily in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Switzerland, and the Benelux countries, as well as on the spot market.

Capital Increase
During May 2010, the Company completed a private placement whereby the Company issued 8.65 million new registered shares from existing authorized capital. The shares were sold at a price of CHF 17.50. The first trading day of the new shares was May 7, 2010. The gross proceeds amounted to USD 136.4 million excluding estimated share issue costs of approximately USD 5.6 million. The proceeds will be used to fund the Companys portion of PBFs acquisition of the Delaware City Refinery and future investments in PBF.

Change in Executive Management


New Chief Financial Officer
On June 15, 2010 Petroplus announced that Joseph D. Watson has been appointed as the Companys new Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Effective September 1, 2010, Mr. Watson will carry out his role as CFO from the Companys headquarters in Zug, Switzerland. He succeeds Karyn F. Ovelmen who resigned effective August 31, 2010.

Factors Affecting Operating Results


Overview
The Companys earnings and cash flows from operations are primarily affected by the relationship between refined product prices and the prices for crude oil and other feedstocks. The cost to acquire crude oil and other feedstocks and the price of refined petroleum products ultimately sold depends on numerous factors beyond our control, including the supply of, and demand for, crude oil, gasoline, diesel and other refined petroleum products, which, in turn, depend on, among other factors, changes in global and regional economies, weather conditions, global and regional political affairs, production levels, the availability of imports, the marketing of competitive fuels, pipeline capacity and availability, prevailing exchange rates and the extent of government regulation. Our revenue and operating income fluctuate significantly with movements in refined petroleum product prices; our materials costs fluctuate significantly with movements in crude oil prices; and our other operating expenses fluctuate with movements in the price of energy to meet the power needs of our refineries. In addition, the effect of changes in crude oil prices on our operating results is influenced by how the prices of refined products adjust to reflect such changes. Crude oil and other feedstock costs and the prices of refined petroleum products have historically been subject to wide fluctuations. Expansion and upgrading of existing facilities and installation of additional refinery distillation or conversion capacity, price volatility, international political and economic developments and other factors beyond our control are likely to continue to play an important role in refining industry economics. These factors can impact, among other things, the level of inventories in the market, resulting in price volatility and a reduction or increase in product margins. Moreover, the industry typically experiences seasonal fluctuations in demand for refined petroleum products, such as for gasoline and diesel during the summer driving season and for home heating oil during the winter.

As the performance of our refineries does not closely follow any of the currently published industry benchmark refining margins, we have created benchmark refinery margins, based upon publicly available pricing information, for each of our refineries that more closely reflect each of our refineries actual performance. The benchmark refining margins for the six refineries we operated during the first half of 2010 are set forth in the following table: Coryton Refinery 5/2/2/1 BRC Refinery 6/1/2/2/1 five Dated Brent/two gasoline/ two ULSD/one 3.5 % fuel oil six Dated Brent/one gasoline/ two gasoil/two VGO/ one 3.5 % fuel oil Petit Couronne and Reich- four Dated Brent/one gasoline/ stett refineries 4/1/2/1 Ingolstadt Refinery 10/1/3/5/1 Cressier Refinery 7/2/4/1 two ULSD/one 3.5 % fuel oil ten Dated Brent/one naphtha/ three gasoline/five ULSD/ one 3.5 % fuel oil seven Dated Brent/two gasoline/ four gasoil/one 1 % fuel oil Each of the benchmark refining margins for our refineries as shown on page 7 is expressed in USD per barrel and serves as proxy for the per barrel margin that a Dated Brent crude oil refinery situated in northwest Europe would earn assuming it sold the benchmark production for the relevant refinery margin. While the benchmark refinery margins presented in the table above are representative of the results of our refineries, each refinerys realized gross margin on a per barrel basis will differ from the benchmark due to a variety of factors affecting the performance of the relevant refinery to its corresponding benchmark. These factors include the refinerys actual type of crude oil throughput, product yield differentials and any other factors not reflected in the benchmark refining margins, such as transportation costs, fuel consumed during production and any product premiums or discounts, as well as inventory fluctuations, timing of crude oil and other feedstock purchases, a rising or declining crude and product pricing environment and commodity price management activities. The following table sets forth historical benchmark crude and refined petroleum product pricing information used in calculating each of our refineries benchmark refining margins:

Benchmark Refining Margins


In assessing our operating performance, we compare the refining margins (revenue less materials cost) of each of our refineries against a specific benchmark industry refining margin based on a crack spread. Benchmark refining margins take into account both crude and refined petroleum product prices. When these prices are combined in a formula, they provide a single value a gross margin per barrel that, when multiplied by a throughput number, provides an approximation of the gross margin generated by refining activities.

crude oil and products may change as prices related to the fixed purchase and sale commitments rise and fall. Over the last twelve months, on average, we have held ap-

to the fluctuation in crude and product pricing on the inventory we hold. Currently, we primarily use a commodity price management program to manage the fluctuation associated with commodity pricing on a defined volume of inventory. Under this program we enter into commodity Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) futures contracts and counterparty swaps to lock in the price of certain commodities. Most derivative transactions are not designated as effective

hedges, therefore any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income in the line item Materials cost. Our derivative contracts are classified as derivative instruments and are recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at fair market value.

tions and does not hedge the Group refining margin. This strategy is continually reviewed and adapted for current economic and market conditions. As noted above, our refineries results will differ from the reference benchmarks due to our hedging or commodity price management activities.

Foreign Currency Fluctuation Management


The functional currency of the Company is the USD as our financing activities and materials cost are mainly incurred in USD. We are still exposed to the fluctuation in the USD versus the Swiss Franc (CHF), Euro (EUR) and the British Pound (GBP) as our local marketing sales, while driven by the USD, are invoiced in local currencies, and a portion of our local capital expenditures, operating and personnel costs are incurred in local currencies. We are also exposed to foreign currency risk because certain of our assets and liabilities are denominated in currencies other than USD. To manage certain foreign currency risk associated with non-USD sales, assets and liabilities, we enter into both swaps and forward derivative contracts. As we have not currently designated our derivative financial instruments as effective hedges, any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of these instruments

Commodity Price Management


The nature of our business requires us to maintain a substantial investment in petroleum inventories. Since petroleum feedstocks and products are global commodities, we have no control over the changing market value of these inventories. To supply our refineries with crude oil on a timely basis, we enter into purchase contracts that fix the price of crude oil from one to several weeks in advance of receiving and processing that crude oil. In addition, as part of our marketing activities we may enter into fixed price contracts for sales of our refined petroleum products in advance of producing and delivering the products. Prior to delivery of the crude oil and sale of the related refined petroleum products, the market value of the

are recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. The Company does not use derivative contracts to manage fluctuations on personnel and operating costs.

Credit Risk Management


Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. The Companys exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of cash and receivables that are presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, including derivatives with positive market values. To minimize credit risk, all customers are subject to credit verification procedures and extensions of credit above defined thresholds are subject to an approval process. We also maintain relationships with several different banks in order to minimize our concentration of risk. The Companys intention is to grant trade credit only to recognized creditworthy third parties. In addition, receivable balances are continuously monitored. The Company also limits the risk of bad debts by obtaining bank securities such as guarantees or letters of credit and credit insurance.

Other Factors
Our operating cost structure is also important to our profitability. Major operating costs include costs relating to employees and contract labor, energy, maintenance and environmental compliance. The predominant variable costs are energy related, in particular, the price of electricity, natural gas and chemicals. In addition, operating costs will vary with movements in foreign currency. Operating results are also affected by safety, reliability and the environmental performance of our refinery operations. Unplanned downtime of our refinery assets generally results in lost margin opportunity and increased maintenance expense. The financial impact of planned downtime, such as major turnaround maintenance, is managed through a planning process that considers such things as, but not limited to, the margin environment, the availability of resources to perform the needed maintenance and feedstock logistics.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2009
Overview Our operating profit was USD 7.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to USD 289.9 million for the same period in 2009. Our net loss was USD 156.5 million (USD 1.76 per share) for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to net income of USD 193.7 million (USD 2.59 per share) for the same period in 2009. Gross Margin Our gross margin decreased by USD 266.4 million, or 32 %, to USD 575.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 from USD 842.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Gross margin in 2010 was marked by the volatility in crude oil prices and increased cost of fuel consumed due to the higher crude oil price environment offset by improved re fining margin cracks for gasoline and middle distillates. Gross margin in the first half of 2009 was impacted by the strong rise in crude oil pricing. The 5/2/2/1 benchmark refining margin for the Coryton Re finery increased 21 % for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009 as a result of increased gasoline and ULSD cracks to Dated Brent. The 6/1/2/2/1 benchmark refining margin for the BRC Refinery in creased 115 % for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009 as a result of improved VGO, gasoil and gasoline cracks. The 4/1/2/1 benchmark re fining margin for the Petit Couronne and Reichstett refineries increased 17 % for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009 as a result of improved gasoline and ULSD cracks. The 10/1/3/5/1 benchmark refining margin for the Ingolstadt Refinery increased 20 % for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009 primarily driven by improved gasoline, ULSD and naphtha cracks. The 7/2/4/1 benchmark refining margin for the Cressier refinery increased 32 % as a result of higher gasoline and gasoil cracks. Dated Brent increased from USD 52 per barrel on av erage in the first half of 2009 to USD 78 per barrel on av erage in the first half of 2010. The increase of USD 26 per barrel resulted in an increase in our cost of fuel consumed (representing 5 % across our refining system) which negatively impacted our realized margin by approximately USD 1.30 per barrel.

Margins in the first half of 2010 were additionally negatively impacted by lower inland premiums at the Cressier and Ingol stadt locations. Rhine Freight averaged approximately CHF 18 per ton for the six months ended June 30, 2010, down over 43 % from the first half of 2009. In Germany, many of our re fined products are based on an Oil Market Report (OMR) price. The OMR price premium to Platts middle distillates in the first half of 2010 was approximately USD 5 per barrel as compared to approximately USD 8 per barrel for the first half of 2009.

Refinery Operations Coryton. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Coryton Refinerys total throughput averaged 182,300 bpd. The refin erys throughput was in line with expectations. For the same period in 2009, the total throughput averaged 170,200 bpd. Throughput in 2009 was impacted by statutory inspections re quired as part of the planned turnaround in the fourth quarter 2009. BRC. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the BRC Re finerys total throughput averaged 73,000 bpd. For the same period in 2009, the BRC Refinerys total throughput averaged 86,400 bpd. Throughput in 2010 was reduced primarily as a result of a planned turnaround during the second quarter. The restart was delayed and carried over into July 2010. Petit Couronne. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Petit Couronne Refinerys total throughput averaged 129,900 bpd. The refinerys throughput was in line with expectations. For the same period in 2009, the Petit Couronne Refinerys total throughput averaged 107,400 bpd. Throughput in 2009 was reduced primarily as a result of planned turnaround activ ity which lasted approximately two weeks. Ingolstadt. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Ingol stadt Refinerys total throughput averaged 95,700 bpd. The refinerys throughput was in line with expectations. For the same period in 2009, the Ingolstadt Refinerys total throughput averaged 91,600 bpd. Throughput in 2009 was impacted by a planned turnaround, which lasted approximately 20 days. Reichstett. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Reich stett Refinerys total throughput averaged 58,100 bpd. For the same period in 2009, the Reichstett Refinerys total throughput averaged 61,200 bpd. Throughput in 2010 was impacted by a planned shutdown of the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) unit and

additional planned repairs on the debutanizer column. Throughput in 2009 was impacted by a planned turnaround which lasted approximately 20 days. Cressier. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Cressier Refinerys total throughput averaged approximately 44,000 bpd. The refinerys throughput was in line with expectations. For the same period in 2009, the Cressier Refinerys total throughput averaged approximately 58,300 bpd. Throughput was impacted by a planned turnaround in the second quarter of 2010, which lasted 38 days.

Financial Expense, Net Our net financial expense increased by USD 22.3 million to USD 94.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 from a net financial expense of USD 72.0 million for the same period in 2009. The increase in net financial expense in 2010 is mainly attributable to higher interest expenses resulting from the Companys refinancing activities which were completed in October 2009. In addition an one-time fee of USD 5.3 million was paid in the first quarter of 2010 for the Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) covenant waiver. Foreign Currency Exchange Loss/Gain

Personnel Expenses Our personnel expenses increased by USD 12.7 million to USD 175.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 from USD 162.7 million for the same period in 2009. As the Companys functional currency is USD, personnel costs for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were negatively impacted by the weakening of the USD as personnel costs are paid in various local currencies such as the EUR, GBP and CHF. Operating Expenses Our refinery operating expenses decreased by USD 25.5 million to USD 204.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 from USD 229.6 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease is mainly attributable to reduced maintenance expenses in 2010 and lower energy costs. In addition, operating expenses in 2009 included higher unplanned maintenance activities. This was partially offset by increased costs in the first half-year as a result of the weakening of the USD in 2010 as compared to 2009 as a significant portion of variable costs such as chemicals and energy are paid in local currencies. Depreciation and Amortization Our depreciation and amortization expenses increased by USD 39.5 million to USD 167.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 from USD 127.7 million for the same period in 2009. The increase is mainly attributable to additional depreciation associated with the turnarounds at the Coryton and Reichstett refineries in 2009.

Our foreign currency exchange results represent a loss of USD 3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to a gain of USD 4.8 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease mainly represents the revaluation of certain CHF, GBP and EUR monetary items against the USD. Income Tax Expense The Companys income tax expense was USD 50.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to USD 19.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Income tax expense was impacted by unrecognized tax losses, non-cash tax effects resulting from the movement in foreign exchange rates and prior years tax adjustments and lower realized refining margins.

Second Quarter 2010 Compared to Second Quarter 2009


Overview Our operating loss was USD 33.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to an operating profit of USD 253.9 million for the same period in 2009. Our net loss was USD 119.1 million (USD 1.30 per share) for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to net income of USD 205.0 million (USD 2.74 per share) for the same period in 2009. Gross Margin

Other Administrative Expenses Our other administrative expenses decreased by USD 10.2 million to USD 22.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 from USD 32.2 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease is mainly attributable to reduced insurance premiums and a reduction in third party service fees.

Our gross margin decreased by USD 287.3 million, or 53 %, to USD 252.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from USD 539.6 million for the same period in 2009. Gross margin in the second quarter of 2009 was impacted by the strong rise in crude oil pricing. Gross margin in 2010 was marked by the decrease in crude oil prices during the second quarter 2010, weakening gasoline cracks, lower throughput and increased cost of fuel consumed due to the overall higher

18 | Petroplus Holdings AG | Operating and Financial Review

crude oil price environment compared to 2009 offset by improved refining margin cracks for middle distillates. The 5/2/2/1 benchmark refining margin for the Coryton Refinery increased 17 % for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009 as a result of increased ULSD cracks partially offset by lower gasoline and fuel oil cracks to Dated Brent. The 6/1/2/2/1 benchmark refining margin for the BRC Refinery increased 50 % for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009 as a result of increases in gasoil cracks. The 4/1/2/1 benchmark refining margin for the Petit Couronne and Reichstett refineries increased 34 % for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009 as a result of increased ULSD cracks.

Capital Spending
We classify our capital expenditures, excluding acquisition expenditures, into five major categories: Permit-related capital expenditures include capital expenditures for improvements and upgrades to our production facilities required by local authorities as a condition of the granting or renewal of the operating permits for our facilities. These include process safety improvements and installation of equipment to reduce emissions to the environment. Sustaining capital expenditures include regular, non-permit related capital expenditures we incur to maintain our production facilities and facilitate reliable operations.

Summary of Indebtedness
The following table sets forth our financial indebtedness and cash balances as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009:
(in millions of USD) June 30, 2010 December 31, 2009

The Companys Consolidated EBITDA (Earnings Before InterTurnaround capital expenditures include capital expenditures incurred in connection with planned shutdowns to make necessary repairs, perform preventative maintenance, replace catalysts and implement capital improvements. We perform major scheduled turnarounds on each of our refineries generally every four to five years, with an intermediate, minor turnaround generally two years following each scheduled major maintenance turnaround. Project-related capital expenditures include capital expenditures for improvements or upgrades to our production facilities that have been identified to provide significant gross margin returns. These projects are expected to either add capacity or increase product yields in higher value petroleum products. Information technology/intangibles capital expenditures include costs associated with software integration primarily from acquisitions and system upgrades. This category also includes other hardware and capital expenditures for intangible assets. Our total capital expenditures, excluding acquisition expenditures, are summarized in the following table by major category for the period indicated:

est, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) excluding results from discontinued operations was USD 166.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Liquidity
Our ability to pay interest and principal on our indebtedness and to satisfy our other debt obligations will depend upon our future operating performance and the availability of new and refinancing indebtedness, which can be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. We believe that our cash flows from operations, borrowings under our existing credit facilities and other capital resources will be sufficient to satisfy the anticipated cash requirements associated with our existing operations during the next twelve months. Our ability to generate sufficient cash from our operating activities depends on our future performance and global oil market pricing, which are subject to general economic, political, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. The Company could, during periods of economic downturn, access the capital markets and/or other available financial resources to strengthen its financial position. In addition, our future capital expenditures and other cash requirements could be higher than we currently expect as a result of various factors, including any acquisitions that we may complete.

Outlook
The discussion below contains forward-looking statements that reflect our current judgment regarding conditions we expect to exist and the course of action we expect to take in the future. Even though we believe our expectations regarding future events are based on reasonable assumptions, forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Our assumptions rely on our operational analysis and expectations for the operating performance of our assets based on their historical operating performance, management expectations as described below and historical costs associated with the operations of those assets. Factors beyond our control could cause our actual results to vary materially from our expectations, which are discussed in the Forward-Looking Statement and elsewhere in this document. The prospective financial information below is our current judgment and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results, and the reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on this prospective financial information. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this document as a result of new information, future events or subsequent developments, or otherwise.

refinerys actual, or anticipated, product slate; and for any other factors not anticipated in the benchmark refining margin. These other factors include crude oil and product grade differentials, a rising or declining crude and products market pricing environment, timing of crude oil and feedstock purchases, fuel consumed during production, commodity price management, transportation costs and inventory fluctuations. The throughput estimates set forth below assume that our refinery operations will experience no operating disruptions or economic run cuts for the remainder of 2010 other than scheduled maintenance shutdowns. Coryton Refinery We expect the Coryton Refinerys total throughput during the third quarter and full-year of 2010 will be approximately 185,000 to 195,000 bpd. BRC Refinery We expect the BRC Refinerys total throughput during the third quarter of 2010 will be approximately 85,000 to 95,000 bpd. We expect the refinerys full-year total throughput will be approximately 80,000 to 90,000 bpd. Petit Couronne Refinery We expect the Petit Couronne Refinerys throughput during the third quarter of 2010 will be approximately 110,000 to 120,000 bpd. We expect the refinerys full-year total throughput will be approximately 115,000 to 125,000 bpd. Ingolstadt Refinery We expect the Ingolstadt Refinerys total throughput during the third quarter and full-year of 2010 will be approximately 95,000 to 105,000 bpd. Reichstett Refinery We expect the Reichstett Refinerys total throughput during the third quarter and full-year of 2010 will be approximately 55,000 to 65,000 bpd. Cressier Refinery We expect the Cressier Refinerys total throughput during the third quarter of 2010 will be approximately 50,000 to 60,000 bpd. We expect the refinerys full-year total throughput will be approximately 45,000 to 55,000 bpd.

Market
We expect the market outlook for the remainder of 2010 to improve versus 2009 for the European refining industry as we see signs of an economic revival in the Atlantic Basin and a corresponding gradual increase in consumption, which we believe will drive improved refining margins. While we expect refining margins will continue to fluctuate, we believe that we are adequately positioned in the industry to perform and fund our operations under current and expected market conditions.

Refinery Operations
Overview As discussed under Factors Affecting Operating Results, it is common practice in our industry to look to benchmark market indicators, such as the derived 5/2/2/1 benchmark refining margin for the Coryton Refinery, 6/1/2/2/1 benchmark refining margin for the BRC Refinery, 7/2/4/1 benchmark refining margin for the Cressier Refinery, 10/1/3/5/1 benchmark refining margin for the Ingolstadt Refinery, 4/1/2/1 benchmark refining margin for the Petit Couronne and Reichstett refineries, as proxies for refining margins. As indicators of the refinerys actual refining margins, each refinerys benchmark must be adjusted for the following: the refinerys actual crude oil slate, which does not correspond to the 100 % Dated Brent crude oil slate we have used in our derived benchmark refining margins; for variances from the benchmark product slate to the

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk


General
The risks inherent in our business include the potential loss from adverse changes in commodity prices and certain operating costs, as well as exchange rates, interest rates, counterparty and operational risks.

Interest Rate Risk


As of June 30, 2010, we have no borrowings under our working capital facilities. However, as we borrow on our working capital facilities, we are subject to interest rate risk, as all of these borrowings bear floating rates of interest.

Liquidity Risk
Our ability to pay interest and principal on our indebtedness and to satisfy our other debt obligations will depend upon our future operating performance and the availability of new and refinancing indebtedness, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. Our ability to generate sufficient cash from our operating activities depends on our future performance and global oil market pricing, which is subject to general economic, political, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. In addition, our future capital expenditures and other cash requirements could be higher than we currently expect as a result of various factors, including any acquisitions or investments that we may complete.

Commodity Price Risk


The Companys earnings, cash flow and liquidity can be significantly affected by a variety of factors beyond our control, including the supply of crude oil and other feedstocks and the demand for diesel, gasoline and other refined petroleum products. The supply of and demand for these commodities depends upon, among other factors, changes in global and regional economies, seasonal buying patterns, weather conditions, logistics, regional and global political affairs, planned and unplanned downtime in refineries, pipelines and production facilities, the amount of new refining capacity, the marketing of competitive fuels and the extent of government regulation. Our revenues fluctuate significantly with movements in the price of refined petroleum products; our materials cost fluctuates significantly with movements in crude oil and other feedstock prices. Our operating expenses fluctuate with movements in the price of natural gas and electricity.

Risks Relating to Our Business and Our Industry


There have been no changes to the risks relating to the industry in which we operate or our business since the filing of the 2009 Annual Report. For the details of these risks please refer to our Annual Report filed with the SIX Swiss Exchange.

Credit Risk
Credit risk arises from the potential failure of a counterparty to meet its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. We are exposed to credit risk from granting trade credit to customers and from placing deposits with financial institutions. Our maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amounts of cash and receivables that are presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, including derivatives with positive market values.

Critical Accounting Judgments and Estimates


The preparation of our Financial Statements in conformity with

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk


The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk as a portion of our revenues, personnel and operating expenses are incurred in EUR, CHF and GBP and translated into USD which is our functional currency. Thus a decline in the value of the USD against these currencies will have a negative effect on our liabilities and expenses and a positive effect on our revenue and assets. Conversely, an increase in the value of the USD against the EUR, CHF and GBP will have the opposite effect.

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances and provide a basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily available through open market quotes. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

24 | Petroplus Holdings AG | Operating and Financial Review

We must use our judgment related to uncertainties in order to make these estimates and assumptions. We have summarized in our 2009 Annual Report our accounting estimates that require more subjective judgment by our management in making assumptions or estimates regarding the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain and for which changes in conditions may significantly affect the results presented in our Financial Statements. These accounting estimates have not changed significantly during the first six months of 2010.

Discontinued Operations

The loss from discontinued operations is analyzed as follows:


Half-Year 2010 Half-Year 2009

Disposal of the Antwerp Processing Facility On October 23, 2009, the Company, through certain of its subsidiaries, entered into a definitive agreement with Eurotank Belgium B.V., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vitol Tank Terminals International B.V., part of the Vitol Group of companies, for the sale of Petroplus Refining Antwerp N.V. and Petroplus Refining Antwerp Bitumen N.V. (the Antwerp Processing Facility). The disposal of the Antwerp Processing Facility is consistent with the Companys long-term policy to focus on its core refining business. The disposal was completed on January 12, 2010, on which date control of the Antwerp Processing Facility passed over to the acquirer. Details of the assets and liabilities disposed of and the calculation of the loss on disposal are disclosed in Note 5 Disposal of the Antwerp Processing Facility. Suspension of the Teesside Refinery Operations The refinery operations at the Companys Teesside facility were suspended in November 2009 and the site is currently transitioning into a marketing and storage facility. In conjunction with the ongoing transition, an additional provision of USD 6.4 million for expected restructuring costs, primarily further employee redundancies and contract cancellation costs, was recorded in the first quarter 2010. The related expenses have been included in the line item Discontinued operations in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The transition is expected to be completed by the end of 2010. Analysis of loss for the year from discontinued operations The combined results of the discontinued operations (i.e. Antwerp Processing Facility and Teesside refining operations) are set forth in the following table. The comparative loss and cash flows from discontinued operations have been re-presented to include those operations classified as discontinued in the current period.
