                   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 (loss) per share:

     Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss)
by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the
periods presented. For the quarter and six months ended July 31, 2000, diluted
loss per share amounts do not reflect the potential dilution from the exercise
of stock options since such inclusion would be antidilutive. For the quarter and
six months ended July 31, 1999, diluted earnings per share reflects the
potential dilution from the exercise of stock options in the amounts of 21,000
shares and 14,000 shares, respectively.

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

Results of Operations - Quarter ended July 31, 2000 compared with quarter ended
July 31, 1999

         Sales and operating revenues for the second fiscal quarter ended July
31, 2000 were $310.8 million as compared with $195.0 million for the same
quarter last year. The 59.4% increase in sales and operating revenues was
primarily due to a 60.3% increase in average selling prices (net of taxes) to
$1.16 per gallon from $.72 per gallon and a 1.0% increase in sales volume to
258.7 million gallons from 256.2 million gallons.

         Gross profit (loss) before depreciation and amortization was $(1.5)
million for the three months ended July 31, 2000 as compared to $10.1 million
for the three months ended July 31, 1999. The decrease was principally due to a
$4.8 million LIFO inventory charge in the current quarter related to higher
product costs, a decrease in retail product margins of approximately 1.3 cents
per gallon which resulted in $3.1 million of lower gross profit, and higher
operating expenses of $4.2 million (primarily maintenance, environmental, credit
card and trucking expenses), partially offset by $.9 million of higher rental
income.

         Other income was $.3 million for the each of the three months ended
July 31, 2000 and 1999. Included in other income for the three months ended July
31, 2000 and 1999 were $159,000 and $205,000, 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 July 31, 1999 also included a charge of $37,000 related to the early
termination of two leases under a master lease agreement with Realty.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses were $6.2 million for the
three months ended July 31, 2000, an increase of $.4 million or 6.7% as compared
with the three months ended July 31, 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 salary and benefit costs.

         Depreciation and amortization was $4.5 million for the three month
period ended July 31, 2000 as compared with $4.2 million for the three months
ended July 31, 1999. The increase was due to higher depreciation as a result of
capital expenditures and acquisitions.

         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,



                                      -8-

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 over time we have only been modestly affected
by inflation since increased costs are passed along to customers to the extent
permitted by competition.

Results of Operations - Six months ended July 31, 2000 compared with six months
ended July 31, 1999

         Sales and operating revenues for the six months ended July 31, 2000
were $596.1 million as compared with $354.0 million for the six months ended
July 31, 1999. The 68.4% increase in sales and operating revenues was primarily
due to a 66.7% increase in average selling prices (net of taxes) to $1.12 per
gallon from $.67 per gallon and a 2.9% increase in sales volume to 512.4 million
gallons from 497.7 million gallons.

         Gross profit before depreciation and amortization was $12.3 million for
the six months ended July 31, 2000 as compared to $20.2 million for the six
months ended July 31, 1999. The decrease was principally due to a $5.8 million
LIFO inventory charge in the current period related to higher product costs,
higher operating expenses of $7.7 million (primarily maintenance, environmental,
credit card and trucking expenses) and $.6 million lower gross profit from our
heating oil operations. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in
retail product margins of approximately 0.7 cents per gallon which contributed
$3.2 million of additional gross profit, higher retail volumes which contributed
$2.0 million of additional gross profit, and $2.1 million of higher rental
income.

         Other income was $.6 million for the six months ended July 31, 2000 as
compared with $.5 million for the six months ended July 31, 1999. Included in
other income for the six months ended July 31, 2000 and 1999 were $318,000 and
$432,000, respectively, of net fees received from Realty for administrative and
technical services we have provided pursuant to the services agreement since the
spin-off. The six months ended July 31, 1999 also included a charge of $218,000
related to the early termination of four leases under a master lease agreement
with Realty.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses were $12.0 million for the
six months ended July 31, 2000 as compared with $11.3 million for the six months
ended July 31, 1999, an increase of 6.8%. The increase was primarily due to a
stock compensation charge of $.4 million resulting from changes in Getty's stock
price during the current six month period, and higher salary and benefit costs.

         Depreciation and amortization was $8.8 million for the six month period
ended July 31, 2000 as compared with $8.3 million for the six months ended July
31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to higher depreciation as a result of
capital expenditures and acquisitions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         As of July 31, 2000, we had a working capital deficit of $12.9 million
as compared with a deficit of $10.6 million as of January 31, 2000. The decrease
in working capital was primarily due to $6.3 million of capital expenditures at
existing locations and $.7 million of capital expended at newly leased
locations, partially offset by working capital generated during the period from
operations. 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.

         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 July 31, 2000, we utilized $8.7 million
of the lines of credit for short-term borrowings and $3.1 million 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 July 31, 2000, we leased 1,086 retail outlets (1,007 from Realty)
and 9 terminal facilities from Realty. Rent expense aggregated $29.9 million for
the six months ended July 31, 2000, including $28.1 million under the master
leases with Realty.

         Our capital expenditures for the six months ended July 31, 2000 were
$6.3 million. Our capital expenditures include discretionary expenditures to
improve the image of the retail outlets, to replace service station equipment
and to improve the terminal facilities. In addition, during the six months ended
July 31, 2000, we spent $.7 million for improvements to properties which we
commenced leasing during the past year.
