                       GETTY REALTY CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)
1.  General:

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Getty Realty Corp. 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.  Spin-off:

     On March 21, 1997, the Company effected the spin-off of its petroleum
marketing business to its stockholders. The Company retained its real estate
business and the Pennsylvania and Maryland home heating oil business (See Note
5), and leased most of its properties on a long-term net basis to the spun-off
company, which is named Getty Petroleum Marketing Inc.
("Marketing").

     The consolidated statement of operations of the Company for the nine months
ended October 31, 1997 includes the financial results of the Marketing business
under the caption "Equity in earnings of Getty Petroleum Marketing Inc." for the
period from February 1, 1997 to March 21, 1997, amounting to pre-tax income of
$2.9 million ($1.7 million after-tax).

3. Earnings (loss) per share:

     Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings less
preferred dividends by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended October 31,
1997 and the nine months ended October 31, 1998 and 1997 reflects the potential
dilution from the exercise of stock options in the amount of 125,000 shares,
6,000 shares and 208,000 shares, respectively. For the quarter and nine months
ended October 31, 1998, conversion of the Series A Participating Convertible
Redeemable Preferred stock (which was issued on January 30, 1998) into common
stock utilizing the if-converted method would have been antidilutive and
conversion was not assumed for purposes of computing diluted earnings per common
share.

5. Subsequent event:

     On December 8, 1998, the Company sold its heating oil and propane business,
Aero Oil Company ("Aero"), to Adams Utility Services Company. The sale price is
$7.0 million, plus inventory and receivables, and the sale price, at appraised
value, of Aero's operational headquarters facility. The sale will be recorded in
the fourth quarter of the current fiscal year and is anticipated to result in a
pre-tax gain of approximately $4.5 million, subject to determination of the
appraised value of the headquarters and other post-closing adjustments. The sale
will not have a significant effect on earnings from continuing operations in the
future. The net assets and results of operations of the heating oil business
have been reclassified as discontinued in the accompanying financial statements
for all periods presented.

         Revenues from rental properties for the quarters ended October 31, 1998
and 1997 principally represent rental income received from Marketing ($14.1
million and $14.2 million, respectively) with the remainder from other lessees
and sublessees.

         Other income was $.7 million for the three months ended October 31,
1998 as compared with $.6 million for the quarter ended October 31, 1997. The
increase in other income of $.1 million was principally due to higher gains on
dispositions of real estate, partially offset by lower investment income, and
management fees for administrative and other services received from Power Test
Investors Limited Partnership ("PTI") during the quarter ended October 31, 1997,
which was eliminated as a result of the merger of PTI into the Company on
January 30, 1998.

         Rental property expenses were $3.2 million for the quarter ended
October 31, 1998, a decrease of $.2 million as compared with the prior year
quarter. The decrease was due to lower rent expense and real estate taxes.

         Environmental and maintenance expenses for the quarter ended October
31, 1998 were $5.8 million as compared with $.9 million for the quarter ended
October 31, 1997. The current quarter included an environmental charge of $5.4
million, resulting from a change in estimated remediation costs associated with
contamination discovered during work being performed to meet the December 22,
1998 federal underground storage tank deadline and revisions to estimates on
previously identified sites where remediation is ongoing, as compared to a
change in estimate of $.4 million during the prior year quarter. As of October
31, 1998, the Company had an accrual of $34.9 million representing management's
best estimate for future environmental remediation costs and had recorded $11.0
million as management's best estimate for recoveries from state underground
storage tank remediation funds. Such accruals are reviewed on a regular basis
and any revisions thereto are reflected in the Company's financial statements as
they become known.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended
October 31, 1998 amounted to $1.8 million, a decrease of $.2 million as compared
with the quarter ended October 31, 1997. The decrease was primarily due to a $.9
million charge recorded in the prior year quarter relating to stock options,
partially offset by higher insurance costs and professional fees during the
current period.

         Depreciation and amortization was $2.3 million for the quarter ended
October 31, 1998, which was comparable to the quarter ended October 31, 1997.

         Interest expense for the three months ended October 31, 1998 amounted
to $.7 million as compared with $1.2 million for the quarter ended October 31,
1997. The decrease in interest expense of $.5 million was principally due to the
elimination of capitalized lease obligations as a result of the merger of PTI
into the Company on January 30, 1998.

Results of Operations - Nine months ended October 31, 1998 compared
 with nine months ended October 31, 1997
 ---------------------------------------

         Revenues from rental properties for the nine months ended October 31,
1998 and 1997 principally represent rental income received from Marketing ($42.4
million and $42.8 million, respectively) with the remainder from other lessees
and sublessees.

         Other income was $2.1 million for the nine months ended October 31,
1998 as compared with $2.5 million for the nine months ended October 31, 1997.
The decrease in other income was principally due to management fees for
administrative and other services received from PTI during the nine months ended
October 31, 1997, which was eliminated as a result of the merger of PTI into the
Company on January 30, 1998 and lower investment income, partially offset by
higher gains on dispositions of real estate during the current period.

         Rental property expenses were $9.7 million for the nine months ended
October 31, 1998 as compared with $10.3 million for the nine months ended
October 31, 1997. The decrease was due to lower rent expense and real estate
taxes.

         Environmental and maintenance expenses for the nine months ended
October 31, 1998 were $12.3 million as compared with $4.5 million for the nine
months ended October 31, 1997. The increase in environmental and maintenance
expenses were principally due to a revision of the Company's estimate of future
remediation costs.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended
October 31, 1998 amounted to $4.7 million, a decrease of $3.6 million as
compared with the nine months ended October 31, 1997. The decrease was primarily
due to a $4.6 million charge recorded in the prior year nine month period
relating to stock options, partially offset by insurance costs and employee
related costs during the current period.

         Depreciation and amortization was $6.8 million for the nine months
ended October 31, 1998, which was comparable to the nine months ended October
31, 1997.

         Interest expense for the nine months ended October 31, 1998 amounted to
$2.1 million as compared with $3.9 million for the nine months ended October 31,
1997. The decrease in interest expense of $1.8 million was principally due to
the elimination of capitalized lease obligations as a result of the merger of
PTI into the Company on January 30, 1998.

         During the nine months ended October 31, 1997, the Company recorded a
charge of $2.2 million related to change of control agreements in connection
with the spin-off.

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

         The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from
operations and its short-term uncommitted lines of credit. Management believes
that cash requirements for operations, capital expenditures and debt service can
be met by cash flows from operations, available cash and equivalents and credit
lines. As of October 31, 1998, such lines of credit amounted to $25 million, of
which $3.0 million was utilized for borrowings and $5.9 million was utilized in
connection with outstanding letters of credit. Borrowings under such lines of
credit are unsecured and bear interest at the prime rate or, at the Company's
option, LIBOR plus 1.0% or 1.1%. Such lines of credit are subject to termination
at the discretion of the banks. Although it is expected that the existing
sources of liquidity will be sufficient to meet its expected operating and debt
service requirements, the Company may be required to obtain additional sources
of capital in the future to fund certain property acquisitions, which capital
sources it believes are available.

         During the nine months ended October 31, 1998, the Company declared
quarterly cash common stock dividends of $.10 per share for each of the quarters
and quarterly preferred stock dividends of $.44375 per share for each of the
quarters. Such dividends aggregated $7.9 million for the nine months ended
October 31, 1998.

         The Company's capital expenditures for the nine months ended October
31, 1998 amounted to $14.1 million, primarily related to the replacement of
underground storage tanks and vapor recovery facilities at gasoline stations. In
addition, the Company expended $.8 million in connection with property
acquisitions. In connection with the spin-off of the petroleum marketing
business, the Company agreed to be responsible for expenditures with respect to
tank upgrades required to meet the December 22, 1998 federal environmental
standards and certain environmental liabilities and obligations. As of October
31, 1998, the Company estimates that in connection therewith, it will expend
$6.7 million in capital expenditures and $23.9 million, net of estimated state
tank fund recoveries, for environmental liabilities and obligations, the latter
of which has been accrued for.

Sale of Heating Oil Business
- - ----------------------------

         On December 8, 1998, the Company sold its heating oil business, Aero
Oil Company ("Aero"), to Adams Utility Services Company. The sale price is $7.0
million, plus inventory and receivables, and the sale price, at appraised value,
of Aero's operational headquarters facility. The sale will be recorded in the
fourth quarter of the current fiscal year and is anticipated to result in a
pre-tax gain of approximately $4.5 million, subject to determination of the
appraised value of the headquarters and other post-closing adjustments. The sale
will not have a significant effect on earnings from continuing operations in the
future.

Year 2000
- - ---------

         The Year 2000 issue has arisen because for many years some computer
software programs and systems have utilized only two digits to specify the year.
As a result, these programs and systems may not be able to recognize and process
dates beyond 1999, which may cause these programs to malfunction or not be able
to accurately process information.

         Marketing provides the Company with data processing services pursuant
to the Company's Services Agreement with Marketing. In connection therewith, a
Year 2000 program has been implemented for internal systems and equipment
relating to information technology systems and non-information technology
systems which has four phases: (1) identification; (2) assessment; (3)
remediation (including modification, upgrading and replacement); and (4)
testing. The identification and assessment phases for all significant internal
business systems and equipment are complete. Of the information technolgy
systems that require modification, approximately 80% have been remediated as of
October 31, 1998. The remediation phase is expected to be completed in March
1999. Most of the remediation phase consists of modifying existing systems and
programs. Testing of systems and programs following remediation is expected to
be completed by June 30, 1999.

         The Company is also reviewing the Year 2000 readiness of third parties
who provide services which are essential to the Company's operations. The
Company has initiated formal communications with material third parties in order
to determine the extent to which the Company is vulnerable to any failure by
such third parties to remediate their respective Year 2000 problems and resolve
such problems to the extent practicable.

         The Company is developing a contingency plan to address issues specific
to the Year 2000 problem. The Plan is expected to include performing certain
processes manually, obtaining replacement systems as well as other appropriate
measures.

         The Company's senior management and the Board of Directors receive
regular updates on the status of the Company's Year 2000 program. The Company
does not expect the cost of these Year 2000 efforts to be material since most of
the work is being performed by Marketing personnel under the Company's Services
Agreement with Marketing.

         The Year 2000 issue presents a number of risks and uncertainties that
could affect the Company or Marketing, which include, but are not limited to,
the availability of qualified personnel and other information technology
resources; the ability to identify and remediate all date sensitive lines of
computer code or to replace embedded computer chips in affected systems or
equipment; and the ability of third parties to remediate their respective
systems. The failure to correct a material Year 2000 problem could result in an
interruption in, or a failure of, certain normal business activities or
operations. Such failures could adversely affect the Company's results of
operations, liquidity and financial condition. Due to the general uncertainty
inherent in the Year 2000 problem, resulting in part from the uncertainty of the
Year 2000 readiness of


                                      -10-


<PAGE>


third-party suppliers and customers, the Company is unable to determine at this
time whether the consequences of Year 2000 failures will have a material impact
on the Company's results of operations, liquidity or financial condition.
