                 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, 2000.

2.  Earnings per share:

     Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods
presented. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution from the
exercise of stock options in the amounts of 37,000 and 8,000 shares for the
quarters ended April 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

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



Results of Operations

     Sales and operating revenues for the first fiscal quarter ended April 30,
2000 were $285.3 million as compared with $159.0 million for the same quarter
last year. The 79.5% increase in sales and operating revenues was primarily due
to a 74.7% increase in average selling prices (net of taxes) from $.62 per
gallon to $1.08 per gallon and a 5.0% increase in volume from 242 million
gallons to 254 million gallons.

     Gross profit before depreciation and amortization was $13.8 million for the
three months ended April 30, 2000 as compared to $10.0 million for the three
months ended April 30, 1999. The improvement of $3.8 million was principally due
to an increase in retail product margins of approximately 2.9 cents per gallon
which contributed $6.0 million of additional gross profit, higher retail volumes
which contributed $2.0 million of additional gross profit and $1.2 million of
higher rental income, partially offset by a $1.0 million LIFO charge in the
current quarter related to higher product costs, and higher operating expenses
of $3.3 million.

     Other income was $.3 million for the three months ended April 30, 2000 as
compared to $.2 million for the same quarter last year. Included in other income
for the three months ended April 30, 2000 and 1999 were $159,000 and $227,000,
respectively, of net fees received from Getty Realty Corp. ("Realty") for
administrative and technical services we have provided pursuant to the services
agreement since the spin-off. The quarter ended April 30, 1999 also included a
charge of $181,000 related to the early termination of two leases under a master
lease agreement with Realty.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5.8 million for the
three months ended April 30, 2000, an increase of $.4 million or 6.8% as
compared with $5.4 million for the quarter ended April 30, 1999. The increase
was primarily due to a stock compensation charge of $.2 million resulting from
changes in Getty's stock price during the current quarter and higher employee
costs.

     Depreciation and amortization was $4.4 million for the three month period
ended April 30, 2000 as compared with $4.1 million for the three months ended
April 30, 1999. The increase was due to higher depreciation as a result of
capital expenditures.

     Our financial results are largely dependent on retail marketing margins and
rental income from dealers. The petroleum marketing industry has been and
continues to be volatile and highly competitive. Petroleum products are
commodities whose prices depend on numerous factors beyond our control, and,
accordingly, their prices may vary substantially over time. From time to time,
competitive market conditions may limit our ability to pass on to our customers
changes in the price we pay for products and, accordingly, our operating margins
may vary. Because our operating margins may vary significantly from time to time
while certain of our expenses do not, our earnings may fluctuate substantially.
As a result of the historic volatility of product margins and the fact that they
are affected by numerous diverse factors, we cannot predict with any degree of
accuracy future product margin levels. However, we believe that we have only
been modestly affected by inflation since increased costs are passed along to
customers to the extent permitted by competition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     As of April 30, 2000, we had a working capital deficit of $7.0 million as
compared with a deficit of $10.6 million as of January 31, 2000. The increase in
working capital was primarily due to working capital generated during the period
from operations, partially offset by $2.9 million of capital expenditures at
existing locations and $.5 million at newly leased locations. We are able to
operate our business with negative working capital, principally because most of
our product sales are for cash, payment terms are received from vendors and
there is a time interval in the payment of motor fuel taxes.

     Our principal source of liquidity is cash flows from operations, which
amounted to $17.4 million during the three months ended April 30, 2000.
Management believes that cash requirements for operations, including rental
payments required under the master leases with Realty and capital expenditures,
can be met by cash flows from operations, cash and equivalents and credit lines.
We have uncommitted lines of credit with three banks in the aggregate amount of
$50 million, which may be utilized for working capital borrowings and letters of
credit. As of April 30, 2000, we are utilizing $3.1 million of the lines of
credit in connection with outstanding letters of credit to support insurance
programs. Borrowings under the lines of credit are unsecured and principally
bear interest at the applicable bank's prime rate or, at our option, 1.1% above
LIBOR. The lines of credit are subject to renewal at the discretion of the
banks.

     As of April 30, 2000, we leased 1,009 retail outlets and 9 terminal
facilities from Realty under the master lease agreements. Rent expense
aggregated $14.9 million for the quarter ended April 30, 2000, including $14.1
million under the master leases with Realty.







                                       -8-
<PAGE>   11


     Our capital expenditures for the three months ended April 30, 2000 were
$2.9 million. Our capital expenditures include discretionary expenditures to
improve the image of the retail outlets, for replacement of service station
equipment and to improve the terminal facilities. In addition, during the three
months ended April 30, 2000, we spent $.5 million for improvements to properties
which we commenced leasing during the past year.

Special Factors Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

     Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may constitute
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When we use the words "believes", "expects",
"plans", "estimates" and similar expressions, we intend to identify
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual
results, performance and achievements to be materially different from any future
results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these
forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to:
volatility of petroleum marketing margins; maturity of the petroleum marketing
industry; the impact of economic growth, energy efficiency and technology;
natural and political events that may affect the supply of petroleum products;
competition; and the effects of regulation.

     As a result of these and other factors, we may experience material
fluctuations in future operating results on a quarterly or annual basis, which
could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition,
operating results and stock price. An investment in our common stock involves
various risks, including those mentioned above and elsewhere in this report and
those which are detailed from time to time in our other filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

     You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which
reflect our view only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to
publicly release revisions to these forward-looking statements that reflect
future events or circumstances or reflect the occurrence of unanticipated
events.
