Phoenix, Arizona, October 31, 1995 - The Circle K Corporation (NYSE:CRK)
announced today that it has extended to 5:00 p.m. E.S.T. on November 30, 1995,
its tender offer to purchase all the outstanding shares of common stock of

John Antioco, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer

flexibility to pursue various options with respect the NCS. We are also
considering whether to submit a proposal to NCS in response to its exploration
of a sale of the company. Although no decision has yet been made to submit such
a proposal, we would only do so on terms that would be accretive to Circle K's
earnings within a reasonable time frame. Any further proposal to acquire NCS
must be weighed against the other alternatives for profitable growth that are
available to Circle K."
