                 GETTY PETROLEUM MARKETING INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)
1.  General:

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Getty Petroleum Marketing Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the
"Company"). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and include amounts
that are based on management's best estimates and judgments. While all available
information has been considered, actual amounts could differ from those
estimates. The consolidated financial statements are unaudited but, in the
opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) necessary for a fair presentation. These statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes which
appear in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
January 31, 1998.

2. Loss per share:

     Loss per share amounts are computed by dividing net loss by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods
presented. For the quarters and six months ended July 31, 1998 and 1997, diluted
per share amounts do not reflect the potential dilution from the exercise of
stock options since such inclusion would be antidilutive.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations - Quarter ended July 31, 1998 compared
 with quarter ended July 31, 1997
 --------------------------------

         Sales and operating revenues for the second fiscal quarter ended July
31, 1998 were $172.5 million as compared with $222.4 million for the same
quarter last year, a decrease of 22.4%. The decrease in sales and operating
revenues was due primarily to a 15.1% decrease in sales prices and a 9.6%
decline in sales volume. Gallonage sold decreased by 26.4 million gallons to
250.0 million gallons primarily because of the previously announced termination
of a wholesale supply contract.

         Gross profit before depreciation and amortization was $6.2 million for
the three months ended July 31, 1998 as compared with $4.5 million for the three
months ended July 31, 1997. The improvement of $1.7 million was principally due
to an increase in retail product margins of approximately 0.9 cents per gallon,
which resulted in an additional $1.9 million of gross profit, partially offset
by $.6 million of higher maintenance and environmental expenses during the
current period.

         The Company's financial results have depended largely on retail
marketing margins and rental income from its dealers. The petroleum marketing
industry has been and continues to be volatile and highly competitive. The cost
of petroleum products purchased as well as the price of petroleum products sold
have fluctuated widely. As a result of the historic volatility of product
margins and the fact that they are affected by numerous diverse factors, it is
impossible to predict future margin levels.

         Other income was $.7 million for the three months ended July 31, 1998
as compared with $.4 million for the quarter ended July 31, 1997. The increase
was primarily due to higher gains on dispositions of assets.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5.4 million for the
three months ended July 31, 1998 as compared with $8.7 million for the quarter
ended July 31, 1997. The decrease was primarily due to $3.5 million of stock
option expense recorded during the quarter ended July 31, 1997.

         Depreciation and amortization was $3.8 million for the three month
period ended July 31, 1998 as compared with $3.4 million for the three months
ended July 31, 1997. The increase was due to higher depreciation as a result of
capital expenditures.

Results of Operations - Six months ended July 31, 1998 compared
 with six months ended July 31, 1997
 -----------------------------------

         Sales and operating revenues for the six months ended July 31, 1998
were $343.3 million as compared with $447.9 million for the six months ended
July 31, 1997, a decrease of 23.4%. The decrease in sales and operating revenues
was due primarily to a 17.1% decrease in sales prices and an 8.6% decline in
sales volume. Gallonage sold decreased by 46.1 million gallons to 488.5 million
gallons, primarily because of the previously announced termination of a
wholesale supply contract.

         Gross profit before depreciation and amortization was $9.7 million for
the six months ended July 31, 1998 as compared with $16.1 million for the six
months ended July 31, 1997. The $6.4 million decrease was principally due to a
decrease in retail product margins of approximately 0.8 cents per gallon, which
resulted in a reduction of $3.3 million of gross profit. In addition, gross
profit was impacted by $1.6 million of higher maintenance and environmental
expenses during the current period and a LIFO credit of $2.1 million which was
recorded during the prior year period.

         Other income was $.9 million for the six months ended July 31, 1998 as
compared with $.8 million for the six months ended July 31, 1997. The increase
was primarily due to higher gains on dispositions of assets of $.3 million,
partially offset by a $.2 million legal charge related to the Company's Mt.
Vernon terminal.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses were $10.6 million for the
six months ended July 31, 1998 as compared with $14.0 million for the six months
ended July 31, 1997. The decrease was primarily due to a $4.0 million reduction
in stock option expense, partially offset by $.2 million of higher charges for
the Company's Employee Stock Ownership Plan which became effective on April 1,
1997.

         Depreciation and amortization was $7.5 million for the six month period
ended July 31, 1998 as compared with $6.7 million for the six months ended July
31, 1997. The increase was due to higher depreciation as a result of capital
expenditures.

         The Company recorded a charge of $.6 million during the six months
ended July 31, 1997 related to change of control agreements in connection with
the spin-off of the Company from Getty Realty Corp.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- - -------------------------------

         As of July 31, 1998, working capital amounted to $.6 million as
compared with $5.8 million as of January 31, 1998. The decrease in working
capital was primarily due to the net loss incurred during the current period.

         The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from
operations, which amounted to $4.9 million during the six months ended July 31,
1998. Management believes that cash requirements for operations and capital
expenditures can be met by cash flows from operations, cash and equivalents and
credit lines. As of July 31, 1998, such uncommitted lines of credit amounted to
$60 million, of which $.5 million was utilized in connection with outstanding
letters of credit. Borrowings under such lines of credit are unsecured and
principally bear interest at the applicable bank's prime rate or, at the
Company's option, 1.1% above LIBOR. Such lines of credit are subject to renewal
at the discretion of the banks.

         The Company's capital expenditures for the six months ended July 31,
1998 amounted to $9.0 million. The Company's capital expenditures include
expenditures to improve the image of the service stations, to improve the
terminal facilities and for routine replacement of service station equipment.
