Report of Independent Accountants

To the Plan Administrator
Tosco Corporation Capital Accumulation Plan

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Tosco Corporation Capital Accumulation Plan (the “Plan”) at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 1999 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1999, and reportable (5%) transactions for the year ended December 31, 1999, are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The fund information in the statements of net assets available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available for plan benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits of each fund. These supplemental schedules and fund information are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedules and fund information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

TOSCO CORPORATION CAPITAL ACCUMULATION PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   Description of Plan

The following description of the Tosco Corporation Capital Accumulation Plan (the “Plan”) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan Documents for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.

General
The Plan, established in 1976, and amended and restated at various times, is a defined contribution, 401(k) profit sharing plan, covering eligible full-time employees of Tosco Corporation (the “Sponsor”) and subsidiaries who have reached the age of 21. Highly compensated employees (employees making more than $80,000 per year) in 1999 can enroll in and contribute to the Plan after one continuous year of employment with the Sponsor. All other eligible employees can enroll in and contribute to the Plan in the month following their date of hire. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), as amended, and is being administered by the Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”). Vanguard is also maintaining the individual participant account records and serving as custodian for the Plan’s investments.

Contributions
Participants may contribute between 2 and 15 percent of their eligible compensation (up to $160,000 in 1999) to the Plan on a pre-tax basis, after-tax basis, or a combination of both, in 1% increments. Pre-tax contributions could not exceed $10,000 in 1999. After a participant has completed one year of continuous service, the Sponsor contributes an amount equal to the first 6% of compensation contributed by a participant during each pay period (the “Matching Contribution”). The Matching Contribution level is reduced from 100% to 75% if an employee has participated in the Plan for less than five years.

Also after the completion of one year of continuous service, the Sponsor makes additional non-matching contributions of 5% (the “Pension Contribution”) and 2% (the “Profit Sharing Contribution”) of eligible compensation (up to $160,000 in 1999) to certain participants. The Pension Contribution is made to certain eligible employees who do not participate in the Tosco Pension Plan, a defined benefit pension plan. The Profit Sharing Contribution is made to certain eligible employees, as defined by the Plan Agreement. The Pension Contribution and Profit Sharing Contribution are available for withdrawal when the participant retires or ceases employment with the Sponsor. Effective January 1, 1998, the Plan was amended so that the Profit Sharing Contribution will not be offered to employees who were not receiving the contribution as of December 31, 1997. Participants receiving the Profit Sharing Contribution as of December 31, 1997 will continue to receive the contribution.

Participant investment choice dictates the allocation of the Sponsor’s contributions. Earnings on investments held by the Plan in the name of a participant are automatically invested in the respective fund from which the earnings were derived.

Participant Accounts
Separate accounts are maintained for each participant. Each participant’s account is directly credited with the participant’s contribution and the Sponsor’s matching contribution. Net earnings from investments in investment funds, which include appreciation (depreciation) in fair value, are allocated to each participant’s account based on the ratio of that participant’s account balance by investment fund to the total of the investment fund portion of all participants’ account balances. The benefit to which a participant is entitled to is solely that which can be provided from the participant’s account.

Vesting
Employees are immediately vested in their individual and in the Sponsor’s contributions, including earnings thereon.

Loans to Participants
The Plan, with certain limitations, may make loans to participants with an interest rate approximately equal to the prime interest rate plus 1% on the origination date. A loan from the Plan will be made for up to the lesser of 100% of the participant’s pre-tax contributions or 50% of the participant’s total account balance, with a maximum of $50,000 and a minimum of $1,000. The maturity on these loans is not to exceed five years. The participants are required to pay all loan origination and administrative fees. All interest payments made under the terms of the loan will be credited to the participant’s account and not considered general earnings of the Plan. Participants’ loans are repaid through payroll deductions and are collateralized by the participants’ vested account balances. Loans outstanding are included in the loan fund in the accompanying financial statements.

Payment of Benefits
Benefits of the Plan are payable upon reaching normal retirement, early retirement, termination, or in the event of death or disability. Benefits may be provided through the purchase of a 50% joint and survivor annuity (in the case of a married participant) or a life annuity (in the case of a single participant). Participants may also elect to receive benefits in a lump sum, another form of annuity or any other form approved by the Administrative Committee of the Plan. Married participants may not elect such other forms without the consent of their spouse. Any whole shares of stock in a participant’s stock fund account may be distributed in the form of shares of stock. All other amounts, including fractional shares of stock, will be distributed to the participant in cash.

Administration Fees
All Plan investment management fees are paid from the investment earnings of the individual investment funds and all other administration fees are paid by the Sponsor and are not reflected in the Plan’s financial statements.

2.  Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation
The Plan's financial statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the reported changes in net assets available for benefits and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investments
The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value. Common stock and mutual fund securities are valued at their quoted market price. Common and collective trust fund holdings are valued at contract value plus accrued income that approximates fair value. Participant loans are valued at cost, which approximates fair value. Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on a trade date basis.

The Plan’s statement of changes in net assets includes the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of its investments, which consists of the realized gains or losses and the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of those investments. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

3.  Investments

Participants may designate, in one percent increments, the portion of his or her contribution to be placed in various funds. Loan repayments are allocated to these funds based on the participant’s current contribution designation. The characteristics of the different funds are as follows:

Primecap Fund
The Primecap Fund invests principally in a portfolio of common stocks of quality companies with perceived undervalued assets, the potential for rapid earnings growth, or both. Dividend income is incidental. Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the assets of the Primecap Fund will be in such common stocks, or in securities convertible into common stocks.

Wellington Fund
The Wellington Fund invests in a portfolio of high-quality stocks and bonds normally in a ratio of 65% common stocks to 35% fixed income securities. Common stocks are selected principally on the basis of current dividend yield and reasonable prospects for earnings and dividend growth. The Wellington Fund’s securities (corporate and government bonds and money market instruments) emphasize high quality consistent with attractive income yields.

Money Market Reserves Fund
The Money Market Reserves Fund invests mainly in securities issued by the U.S. Treasury and agencies of the U.S. Government which mature in one year or less. The Federal Portfolio is designed to maintain a constant $1.00 per share value.

Index 500 Portfolio Fund
The Index 500 Portfolio Fund invests in a portfolio of common stocks and attempts to provide investment results that correspond to the price and yield performance of publicly-traded stocks in the aggregate (as represented by the Standard & Poor’s Composite Stock Price Index).

Long-Term U.S. Treasury Bond Fund
The Long-Term U.S. Treasury Bond Fund invests primarily in long-term U.S. Treasury Bonds with an objective to provide a high level of current income. Although the fund has negligible credit risk, the market value of the fund will fluctuate due to changes in interest rates prevailing in the economy.

International Growth Fund
The International Growth Fund invests in common stocks of companies based outside of the United States that are considered to have above-average growth and capital appreciation potential.

Collective Income Fund
The Collective Income Fund represents a proportional share of the American Express Trust Income Fund III (the “Fund”) which invests in a diversified portfolio of fixed income securities, investment contracts, and money market instruments. The combination of the interest earned on investments, less American Express’ costs of administering the fund, determines the fund’s rate of return.

Growth and Income Fund
The Growth and Income Fund invests primarily in equity securities, including common stock and securities convertible to common stock, of financially strong companies that offer high growth rates at attractive valuations. The portfolio may also include dividend-paying equity securities, fixed income securities, and money market instruments.

Tosco Stock Fund
The Tosco Stock Fund invests primarily in Tosco Corporation Common Stock. A small cash position in Vanguard money market reserves is maintained to provide liquidity necessary for periodic transactions (distributions and fund exchanges).

Phillips Petroleum Stock Fund
The Phillips Petroleum Stock Fund is a closed fund with investments in the common stock of Phillips Petroleum Company. Dividends earned are automatically reinvested in stock.

Loan Fund
The Loan Fund represents amounts borrowed by participants against their individual accounts. All loans are collateralized by the participants' account balance.

4.  Federal Income Tax Status

The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Sponsor by a letter dated September 21, 1995, that the Plan and related trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, management believes that the Plan, as amended, is in compliance with the Code, therefore no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan’s financial statements.

5.  Plan Termination

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Sponsor has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. Upon termination, the Plan’s assets would be distributed to the participants, as soon as possible and legally permitted, on the basis of their account balances existing on the date of termination as adjusted for investment gains and losses.

6.  Party-In-Interest Transactions

Certain investments of the Plan are in shares of mutual funds managed by Vanguard. As Vanguard is the Plan’s administrator, these transactions qualify as Party-In-Interest transactions. In addition, certain Plan investments are in the Sponsor’s Common Stock. These transactions also qualify as Party-In-Interest transactions.

During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Sponsor paid administrative expenses totaling $171,401 on behalf of the Plan.
