                NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                (Unaudited)

1.  General:

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Getty Petroleum Corp. and all majority-owned subsidiaries (the
"Company").  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.


2.  Earnings per share:

     Earnings per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income
by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during
the period.  Common stock equivalents are not included in earnings per
share computations since their effect is immaterial.


3.  Inventories:

     Inventories, primarily finished petroleum products, are principally
accounted for under the lower of last-in, first-out ("LIFO") cost or
market.  As of April 30, 1994 and January 31, 1994, the carrying value of
the Company's LIFO inventories approximated the first-in, first-out
("FIFO") method or replacement cost.


4. Accounting Changes:

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities", which requires that such investments be
classified into three categories, namely, held-to-maturity, trading and
available-for-sale securities.  Currently, the Company's short-term
investments are all considered available-for-sale and are carried at fair
value with unrealized gains or losses excluded from earnings and reported
as a separate component of stockholders' equity.

     The Company adopted SFAS No. 115 as of the beginning of fiscal 1995
and has reported the cumulative effect of the change in accounting
principle as a credit of $183,000 in the consolidated statement
of operations.  During the quarter ended April 30, 1994, the market value
of the Company's short-term investments declined and a net unrealized loss
of $22,000 was excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component
of stockholders' equity (see Note 5).

     The Company adopted SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes",
during the quarter ended April 30, 1993 and reported the cumulative effect
of the change in accounting principle as a credit of $860,000
in the consolidated statement of operations.

6.  Subsequent Event:

     On May 16, 1994, the Company redeemed all of its outstanding 14%
subordinated debentures due August 1, 2000 at a call price of 102.8%. 
The redemption of $21.7 million of debentures was made with existing 
funds, $10.0 million of which was funded on June 13, 1994 under a five 
year term loan agreement with two banks. The principal is payable in
quarterly installments of $500,000, together with interest payable, at 
the option of the Company, at LIBOR plus 1.25% or a base rate, as 
defined. In the second quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company will record 
an extraordinary charge of approximately $.7 million, net of taxes, 
resulting from the redemption.

                  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
               FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                     
     
     Net sales for the first fiscal quarter ended April 30, 1994 were
$170.7 million as compared with $208.0 million for the same quarter last
year. The decrease in net sales was principally due to a 12% decrease in
average selling prices, and a decrease in wholesale gallonage sold, 
partially offset by an increase in retail gallonage sold. Gross
profit (excluding rental and other income) was $8.1 million for the quarter
ended April 30, 1994 compared to $8.6 million in the comparable period last
year.  The decrease in gross profit was principally due to lower gross
margins.

     Rental and other income for the three months ended April 30, 1994
amounted to $8.8 million as compared with $8.1 million for the quarter
ended April 30, 1993.  The increase was primarily due to $.6 million of
additional rental income earned as a result of increased lease rental 
rates from capital improvements in Company owned and leased locations 
and lease renewals.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended
April 30, 1994 amounted to $6.5 million as compared with $5.8 million for
the quarter ended April 30, 1993. The increase was principally due to
higher employee and advertising expenses.

     Interest expense for the three months ended April 30, 1994 amounted to
$3.3 million as compared with $3.8 million for the quarter ended April 30,
1993.  The decrease was principally due to reduced debt outstanding during
the current fiscal quarter.

     Depreciation and amortization decreased by $.2 million in the quarter
ended April 30, 1994 as compared to the same quarter last year. The 
reduction was due to a decrease in amortization of deferred charges of 
$.5 million, partially offset by an increase in depreciation of $.3 million 
as a result of additions to property, plant and equipment.

     The Company adopted SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities", as of the beginning of fiscal 1995 and
has reported the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle as
a credit of $.2 million in the consolidated statement of operations.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" during 
the quarter ended April 30, 1993 and reported the cumulative effect of 
the change in accounting principle as a credit of $.9 million in the 
consolidated statement of operations.



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

     As of April 30, 1994, working capital amounted to $4.3 million as
compared to $6.2 million as of January 31, 1994.  The decrease in working
capital was primarily due to $3.7 million of capital expenditures and the 
reduction of $2.7 million in long-term indebtedness, partially offset by 
funds generated from operations.

                                    -6-





     The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from
operations which amounted to $17.3 million during the three months ended
April 30, 1994, and its short-term unsecured lines of credit. As of April
30, 1994, lines of credit amounted to $60 million, of which $39.0 million
was utilized in connection  with outstanding letters of credit.  Management
believes that cash requirements for operations and debt service can be met
by its available cash balances, cash flows from operations and 
its credit lines.

     On May 16, 1994, the Company redeemed all of the outstanding 14%
subordinated debentures due August 1, 2000 at a call price of 102.8%. The
redemption of $21.7 million of debentures was made with existing funds, 
$10.0 million of which was funded on June 13, 1994 under a five year term 
loan agreement.
