Exhibit 10.49

HOLLY LOGISTIC SERVICES, L.L.C.
PERFORMANCE UNIT AGREEMENT

This Performance Unit Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between HOLLY LOGISTIC SERVICES, L.L.C., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Company”), and                                          (the “Employee”). This Agreement is entered into as of the 3^rd day of March, 2009 (the “Date of Grant”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the HOLLY ENERGY PARTNERS, L.P. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN (the “Plan”) to attract, retain and motivate employees, executives directors and consultants; and

WHEREAS, the Company believes that a grant to the Employee of performance units of Holly Energy Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”) as part of the Employee’s compensation for services provided to the Company and/or the Partnership is consistent with the stated purposes for which the Plan was adopted.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the services rendered by the Employee, it is agreed by and between the Company and the Employee, as follows:

1. Grant. The Company hereby grants to the Employee as of the Date of Grant an Award of                      performance units (the “Performance Units”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Depending on the performance of the Partnership, the Employee may earn from fifty percent (50%) to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Performance Units, based on the increase in the Partnership’s cash distributions on the Common Units of the Partnership (“Common Units”).

2. Distribution Equivalent Rights. As long as the Employee holds the Performance Units granted pursuant to this Agreement, the Employee shall be entitled to receive distribution equivalent rights (“DERs’) in accordance with this Section 2. In the event the Partnership makes a distribution in respect of outstanding Common Units and, on the record date for such distribution, the Employee holds Performance Units that have not yet become earned and payable under this Agreement, the Company shall pay the Employee an amount in cash equal to the distribution amounts the Employee would have received if the Employee were the holder of record, as of such record date, of a number of Common Units equal to the number of such Performance Units that have not become earned and payable as of such record date, such payment to be made on or promptly following the date that the Partnership makes such distribution (however, in no event shall the DERs be paid later than 30 days following the date on which the Partnership makes such distribution to unitholders generally).

3. Nature of Award. The Performance Units represent an Award for the “Performance Period” which begins on January 1, 2009 and ends on December 31, 2011. Following the completion of the Performance Period, the Employee shall be entitled to a payment of Common Units as determined under this Section 3 and/or Section 4, as applicable, and payable in Common Units at the time indicated in Section 5 or Section 4(b), as applicable.

(a) Performance Measure. The percentage of Performance Units earned for the Performance Period is determined on the basis of the total increase in the cash distribution per Common Unit during the Performance Period over an annualized cash distribution of $3.06 per Common Unit.

(b) Common Units Payable. The number of Common Units payable is equal to the result of multiplying Performance Units by the “Performance Percentage” set forth below:

3-Year Total Increase in Cash		Performance Percentage (%) to
Distributions Per Common		be Multiplied by Performance
Unit over $3.06		Units
$0.000			50	%
$0.658			100	%
$1.346			150	%

The percentages above shall be interpolated between points.

4. Early Termination. In the event Employee ceases to provide services to the Partnership and the Company prior to the end of the Performance Period on account of an event described in this Section 4, the number of Performance Units with respect to which payment at the end of the Performance Period is based shall be determined as follows:

(a) In the event that the Employee ceases to provide services to the Partnership and the Company:

(i) for any reason other than voluntary separation, Cause (as defined in Section 4(c)(vii)) or a Special Involuntary Separation (as defined in Section 4(c)(vi)),

(ii) due to the Employee’s death,

(iii) due to the Employee’s total and permanent disability as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”) in its sole discretion, or

(iv) due to the Employee’s retirement on or after attaining normal retirement age of 62 or after attaining an earlier retirement age approved by the Committee in its sole discretion, the number of Performance Units that shall be earned by and paid to the Employee or his beneficiary, in accordance with and at the time specified in Section 5, shall be determined as follows: the Employee shall forfeit a percentage of the Performance Units earned equal to the percentage that the number of full months following the date of separation, death, disability or retirement to the end of the Performance Period bears to thirty-six (36). The Committee shall determine the number of Performance Units earned by the Employee or his beneficiary in accordance with Section 3 for the entire Performance Period as soon as administratively practicable after the end of the Performance Period. In its sole discretion, the Committee may make a payment to the Employee assuming a Performance Percentage of up to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Performance Units instead of the pro-rata number of Performance Units as determined pursuant to this Section 4(a). Unless the Committee determines otherwise, the Employee will have no right to any other Performance Units and those other Performance Units granted under this Agreement will be forfeited. If the Employee separates from employment prior to the end of the Performance Period due to voluntary separation or on account of Cause, all Performance Units hereunder will be forfeited.

(b) In the event of a Special Involuntary Termination, as defined in Section 4(c)(vi), before the end of the Performance Period, no Performance Units shall be forfeited, and payment with respect to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Performance Units shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following the Special Involuntary Termination, but in no event later than two and one-half months after the end of the calendar year in which the Special Involuntary Termination occurs. Payment pursuant to this Section 4(b) is in lieu of payment pursuant to Section 4(a) and if the Employee receives payment pursuant to this Section 4(b) the Employee will not be entitled to any payment pursuant to Section 4(a).
