"Rich's leadership has been instrumental in transforming our refineries into the

systems in the nation. All of us at MPC thank him for his decades of service and
wish him well in his retirement."

positions throughout the company, including at MPC's refineries in Catlettsburg,
Ky., Robinson and Texas City, as well as senior management positions at MPC's
headquarters in Findlay. Brooks has served as the general manager of MPC's
refineries in Robinson and St. Paul Park, Minn. (no longer owned by MPC), in
addition to his current role at the Galveston Bay refinery. Brooks graduated
from the University of Cincinnati with a bachelor of science degree in chemical
engineering in 1983. In 1988, he received his master's degree in business
administration from the University of New Orleans.
"We are fortunate to have Ray's depth and breadth of experience to take over as
head of our Refining organization," said Heminger. "He will make lasting
contributions as we continue to optimize and strategically expand our system."
