                  GETTY PETROLEUM CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                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 October 31, 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 the current
fiscal year 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 and nine months ended October 31, 1994,
the market value of the Company's short-term investments changed and a net
unrealized gain (loss) of ($14,000) and $15,000, respectively, 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. Debt:

   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 $21,666,000 of debentures was made with existing funds,
$10,000,000 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.  During the
nine months ended October 31, 1994, the Company recorded an extraordinary
charge of $1,232,000 ($775,000 after taxes) resulting from the redemption.
The extraordinary charge consists of the write-off of deferred finance
costs associated with the debentures and a redemption premium paid to
holders of the retired debentures.

7. Restructuring Charge:

   In the third quarter of the current fiscal year, the Company recorded a
pre-tax restructuring charge of $2.3 million to provide for severance and
other related restructuring costs.  The charge is included in Rental and
other income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

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

Results of Operations - Quarter ended October 31, 1994 Compared
with Quarter Ended October 31, 1993
- - -----------------------------------

   Net sales for the quarter ended October 31, 1994 were $195.3 million as
compared with $182.4 million for the same quarter last year. The increase
in net sales was principally due to a 3% increase in average selling prices
and an increase in retail gallonage sold.  Gross profit (excluding rental
and other income) increased by $3.1 million in the quarter ended October
31, 1994 as compared to the same quarter last year.  The increase in gross
profit was principally due to higher gross margins.

   Rental and other income for the three months ended October 31, 1994
amounted to $7.6 million as compared with $8.7 million for the quarter
ended October 31, 1993.  The decrease was primarily due to a charge of $2.3
million relating to severance and other restructuring costs, partially
offset by $.5 million of additional rental income earned during the current
period and $.6 million of additional gains recognized from dispositions of
properties.  The Company expects that the restructuring will result in
annual savings of approximately $3.0 million.

   Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended
October 31, 1994 amounted to $7.4 million, a $1.3% reduction from the
comparable period last year.

   Interest expense for the three months ended October 31, 1994 amounted to
$2.7 million as compared with $3.6 million for the quarter ended October
31, 1993.  The decrease was principally due to reduced debt outstanding
during the current fiscal quarter, principally related to the redemption in
May 1994 of the Company's 14% subordinated debentures.

   Depreciation and amortization decreased by $.1 million in the quarter
ended October 31, 1994 as compared to the same quarter last year.  The
reduction was due to a decrease in amortization of deferred charges of $.3
million, partially offset by an increase in depreciation of $.2 million as
a result of additions to property, plant and equipment.

Results of Operations - Nine Months Ended October 31, 1994 Compared
with Nine Months Ended October 31, 1993
- - ---------------------------------------

   Net sales for the nine months ended October 31, 1994 were $546.0 million
as compared with $586.0 million for the same period last year.  The
decrease in net sales was principally due to a 5.4% 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 $20.5 million for the nine months ended October 31,
1994 compared to $27.1 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 nine months ended October 31, 1994
amounted to $25.8 million as compared with $25.5 million for the nine
months ended October 31, 1993.  The increase was principally due to $1.6
million of additional rental income earned during the current nine month
period and $1.0 million of income recognized by the Company for a claim
settlement, partially offset by a charge of $2.3 million relating to
severance and other restructuring costs.

   Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended
October 31, 1994 amounted to $20.5 million, a 1.6% reduction from the
comparable period last year.

   Interest expense for the nine months ended October 31, 1994 amounted to
$8.7 million, a decrease of $2.3 million from the comparable period last
year.  The decrease was principally due to reduced debt outstanding during
the current period, principally related to the redemption in May 1994 of
the Company's 14% subordinated debentures.

   Depreciation and amortization decreased by $.3 million in the current
nine month period as compared to the nine months ended October 31, 1993.
The reduction was due to a decrease in amortization of deferred charges of
$1.0 million, partially offset by an increase in depreciation of $.7
million as a result of additions to property, plant and equipment.

   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.  During the nine months ended October 31, 1994, the Company
recorded an extraordinary charge of $1.2 million ($.8 million after taxes)
in connection with the early retirement of debt.

   The Company adopted SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities", as of the beginning of the current fiscal year
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 October 31, 1994, working capital amounted to a deficit of $10.6
million, as compared to positive working capital of $6.2 million as of
January 31, 1994.  The decrease in working capital was primarily due to the
reduction of $21.7 million in long-term indebtedness including the effect
of redeeming the subordinated debentures in May 1994 and $14.2 million of
capital expenditures, partially offset by funds generated from operations.

   The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from
operations which amounted to $27.1 million during the nine months ended
October 31, 1994, and its short-term unsecured lines of credit. As of
October 31, 1994, lines of credit amounted to $60 million, of which $33.9
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.
