 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Item&nbsp;6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Valero&#146;s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the &#147;Restated Certificate of Incorporation&#148;) contains a
provision that eliminates the personal liability of a director to Valero and its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to the extent currently allowed under the Delaware General Corporation Law. If a director
were to breach such duty in performing duties as a director, neither Valero nor its stockholders could recover monetary damages from the director, and the only course of action available to Valero&#146;s stockholders would be equitable remedies,
such as an action to enjoin or rescind a transaction involving a breach of fiduciary duty. To the extent certain claims against directors are limited to equitable remedies, the provision in Valero&#146;s Restated Certificate of Incorporation may
reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation and may discourage stockholders or management from initiating litigation against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. Additionally, equitable remedies may not be effective in many situations.
If a stockholder&#146;s only remedy is to enjoin the completion of the Board of Directors&#146; action, this remedy would be ineffective if the stockholder does not become aware of a transaction or event until after it has been completed. In such a
situation, it is possible that the stockholders and Valero would have no effective remedy against the directors. Under Valero&#146;s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, liability for monetary damages remains for (i)&nbsp;any breach of the duty of
loyalty to Valero or its stockholders, (ii)&nbsp;acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;payment of an improper dividend or improper repurchase or redemption of
Valero&#146;s stock under Section&nbsp;174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv)&nbsp;any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under Article&nbsp;V of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Article&nbsp;VIII of Valero&#146;s Amended and Restated <FONT

Agreement&#148;), each person who is or was a director or officer of Valero or a subsidiary of Valero, or who serves or served any other enterprise or organization at the request of Valero or a subsidiary of Valero (collectively, an
&#147;Indemnitee&#148;), shall be indemnified by Valero to the full extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under such
law, to the extent that an Indemnitee is successful on the merits in defense of a suit or proceeding brought against the Indemnitee by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of Valero, or serves or served any other
enterprise or organization at the request of Valero, the Indemnitee shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under such law, if unsuccessful in defense of a third-party civil suit or a criminal suit, or if such suit is settled, the Indemnitee shall be
indemnified against both (a)&nbsp;expenses, including attorneys&#146; fees, and (b)&nbsp;judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best
interests of Valero, and, with respect to any criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If
unsuccessful in defense of a suit brought by or in the right of Valero, or if such a suit is settled, the Indemnitee shall be indemnified under such law only against expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees) actually and reasonably incurred in the
defense or settlement of such suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of Valero, except that if the Indemnitee is adjudged to be liable in such a suit for negligence
or misconduct in the performance of duties to Valero, the Indemnitee cannot be made whole for expenses unless the court determines that he or she is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Indemnification Agreement provides directors and officers with specific contractual assurance that indemnification and advancement of
expenses will be available to them regardless of any amendments to or revocation of the indemnification provisions of Valero&#146;s Restated <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">By-laws.</FONT> The Indemnification Agreement provides for indemnification
of directors and officers against both stockholder derivative claims and third-party claims. Sections 145(a) and 145(b) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which grant corporations the power to indemnify directors and officers, specifically
authorize lesser indemnification in connection with derivative claims than in connection with third-party claims. The distinction is that Section&nbsp;145(a), concerning third-party claims, authorizes expenses and judgments and amounts paid in
settlement (as is provided in the Indemnification Agreement), while Section&nbsp;145(b), concerning derivative suits, generally authorizes only indemnification of expenses. However, Section&nbsp;145(f) expressly provides that the indemnification and
advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to the subsections of Section&nbsp;145 shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any agreement. Delaware
case law does not directly answer whether Delaware&#146;s public policy would support this aspect of the Indemnification Agreement under the authority of Section&nbsp;145(f), or would cause its invalidation because it does not conform to the
distinctions contained in Sections 145(a) and 145(b). </P>

any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </P>

pursuant to such award will have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company. Upon issuance and delivery of such Shares from time to time pursuant to the terms of the 2020 Plan or any applicable Award Agreement
for the consideration established pursuant to the terms of the 2020 Plan and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions of such award, including, if applicable, the lapse of any restrictions relating thereto, the satisfaction of any
performance conditions associated therewith and any requisite determinations by or pursuant to the authority of the Board, a duly constituted, authorized and acting Committee, or one or more duly authorized and acting officers of the Company or any
affiliates thereof, in each case as provided in and in accordance with the 2020 Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, and, in the case of stock options, the exercise price thereof and payment for such Shares as provided therein, such Shares will
be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This opinion is limited to the original issuances of Shares by the Company and does not cover shares of
