SCHEDULE 13D
This Amendment No. 9 (this “Amendment”) supplements the information set forth in the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons with the SEC, as amended from time to time (the “Schedule 13D”), relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”) of HF Sinclair Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.
The information set forth in response to each separate Item below shall be deemed to be a response to all Items where such information is relevant. The Schedule 13D is hereby supplementally amended as follows:
| Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction |
The information contained in Items 3 and 6 of the Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference.
On March 30, 2023, REH sold 4,000,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, at a price of $47.59 per share, for the aggregate price of approximately $190.4 million, to a registered broker in an unregistered block trade permitted under applicable securities laws.
| Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
(a.) – (b.) The aggregate number and percentage of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons (on the basis of a total of 196,186,461 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 15, 2023 as reported in the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2023 less the Common Stock acquired by the Issuer pursuant to the Ninth Repurchase Transaction) are as follows:
| A. | REH Company |
| i. | Amount beneficially owned: 34,853,483 |
Percentage: 17.9%
| a. | Sole power to vote or to direct the vote: 0 |
| b. | Shared power to vote or to direct the vote: 34,853,483 |
| c. | Sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: 0 |
| d. | Shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: 32,283,483 |
| B. | Carol Orme Holding |
| i. | Amount beneficially owned: 34,853,483 |
Percentage: 17.9%

| c. | Sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: 0 |
| d. | Shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: 32,283,483 |
The shares set forth above are directly owned by REH and not Mrs. Holding. REH is the primary and direct beneficial owner of the shares indicated above, and the board of directors of REH has all voting and investment power with respect to such shares. However, as a result of her relationship with REH, Mrs. Holding may be deemed to also beneficially own such shares under applicable securities law and SEC guidance. Mrs. Holding, however, does not intend ever to own such shares directly for investment purposes in the future and expressly disclaims such beneficial ownership to the maximum extent permitted by law. REH and Mrs. Holding are collectively referred to herein as the “Repor ting Persons.”

To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no transactions were effected by the Reporting Persons during the past 60 days other than the transactions described herein and the transactions pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated March 2, 2023, by and between the Issuer and REH, whereby the Issuer repurchased 1,969,279 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock for $50.78 per share for the aggregate purchase price of $99,999,988 in a privately negotiated transaction (the “Ninth Repurchase Transaction”). The disclosure in Item 4 of this Amendment is incorporated herein by reference.

The information contained in Item 3 of the Schedule 13D and Item 4 of this Amendment is incorporated herein by reference.
On March 30, 2023, in connection with the sale of shares described in this Amendment No. 9, REH agreed to customary “lock-up” restrictions that will expire 45 days following the date of the sale, subject to waiver by the registered broker and certain exceptions, including, but not limited to, privately negotiated sales or transfers of Common Stock from REH to the Issuer.
