              INTRODUCTION TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA

      The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data have been
derived by the application of pro forma adjustments to the historical financial
statements of The Pantry, Inc. ("The Pantry") for the periods indicated. The
adjustments are described in the accompanying notes.

      On January 28, 1999, The Pantry acquired 100% of the outstanding capital
stock of Miller Enterprises, Inc. ("Miller Enterprises"), and certain other real
estate assets of Miller Brothers and Circle Investments, Ltd., affiliates of
Miller Enterprises (collectively referred to as "Miller Enterprises and
Affiliates"). Miller Enterprises is a leading operator of convenience stores
operating one hundred twenty-one (121) stores under the name "Handy Way" and
located primarily in central Florida. The purchase price was $82,000,000 in cash
plus certain working capital and other adjustments. The Company intends to
continue to operate the assets of Miller Enterprises and Affiliates as they have
historically been operated. The source of funds for the acquisition was the 1999
Credit Facility (as defined below) and cash on hand.

      On February 25, 1999, The Pantry acquired 60 convenience stores and
related assets from Taylor Oil Company ("Taylor Oil"). The real property on
which the stores are located has been leased or subleased from Taylor Oil or
affiliated parties. Of the 60 leases, 51 are for terms of 15 years with four
five-year renewal options. The remaining nine subleases are for terms ranging
from three to 18 years, exclusive of renewal options. The acquired convenience
stores are located in North Carolina and Virginia. The purchase price was
approximately $22,850,000 in cash plus certain adjustments. The Company intends
to continue to operate the assets of Taylor Oil as they have historically been
operated. The source of funds for the acquisition was The Pantry's 1999 Credit
Facility and cash on hand.

      On March 11, 1999, The Pantry filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1,
as amended on June 4, 1999 (the "Registration Statement"), relating to the
offering of 6,250,000 shares of common stock at an assumed offering price of
$16.00 per share. The unaudited pro forma financial data reflect estimated net
proceeds from the proposed offering of $92.0 million and the application of such
proceeds to (1) repay outstanding indebtedness under our Amended Credit Facility
of $19.0 million and (2) redeem preferred stock of $17.5 million and pay accrued
dividends of $5.1 million.

The unaudited pro forma financial data also give effect to the following:

(b) Historically, Miller Enterprises incurred rental expense related to stores
    leased from its affiliates. These stores were acquired by us in connection
    with the Miller Enterprises and Affiliates acquisition and all leases with
    Miller Enterprises affiliates were terminated. As a result, rental expenses
    of $1,106 for the quarter ended December 24, 1998 and $4,424 for the year
    ended September 24, 1998 have been eliminated.

(c) Reflects an increase in store rental expense of $609 for Taylor Oil for the
    three months ended December 24, 1998 and $288 for Quick Stop and $2,437 for
    Taylor Oil for the year ended September 24, 1998 in connection with an
    obligation to lease certain stores from the former owners of Quick Stop and
    Taylor Oil at current market values at the dates of acquisition. The rent
    increases were effective concurrent with the Quick Stop acquisition, which
    occurred on July 2, 1998, and the Taylor Oil acquisition, which occurred on
    February 25, 1999.

(d) The 1998 and 1999 acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase
    method of accounting. Purchase price allocations for the Lil' Champ
    acquisition, the Wooten Oil acquisition and the United Fuels acquisition
    have been finalized. Purchase price allocations for all other 1998 and 1999
    acquisitions have not been finalized and are based on available information,
    internal estimates and certain assumptions we believe are reasonable.

    For each acquisition, the purchase price will be allocated to the tangible
    and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their
    respective fair values at the time the acquisitions were consummated,
    pending completion of appraisals of property and equipment acquired. The
    excess of the purchase price over the historical basis of the net assets
    acquired has been allocated to the net assets acquired based on preliminary
    estimates. The actual allocation of the purchase cost, however, and the
    resulting effect on income from operations may differ significantly from the
    pro forma amounts included herein pending the completion of appraisals and
    other purchase price adjustments.

    The purchase price of the Miller Enterprises and affiliates acquisition is
    subject to working capital and capital expenditure adjustments pending the
    completion of a closing balance sheet audit of Miller Enterprises as of
    January 28, 1999.

    In the Express Stop acquisition, $2,500 of the purchase price was subject to
    an escrow agreement until March 1999, and was to be forfeited upon the
    occurrence of specific events or conditions relating to the operations of
    video poker machines in South Carolina. The events or conditions specified
    in the purchase agreement did not occur, and the $2,500 million held in
    escrow was paid to Express Stop in March 1999.

    The following table summarizes the additional amortization expense to be
    incurred in connection with the various 1998 and 1999 transactions described

</TABLE>
Deferred financing costs relating to the issuance of our $200 million senior
subordinated notes and our 1998 credit facility are amortized using the straight
line method over the terms of the instruments because the instruments either
require interim payments of interest only or require interim interest payments
computed using variable interest rates which are periodically revised based on
current market conditions. For purposes of the unaudited pro forma financial
statements, deferred financing costs related to the 1999 credit facility are
amortized using the straight line method, which approximates the results that
would be computed using the effective interest method.

In connection with the 1998 and 1999 acquisitions, The Pantry did not assume
debt obligations of the acquired entities totaling approximately $54,700
and having interest rates ranging from 5.75% to 8.75%.

The interest rates disclosed above are based on the current weighted-average
interest rates for which The Pantry has an obligation. Assuming a 0.125%
increase or decrease in the variable rate bank credit facility, interest
expense, net of taxes, would increase or decrease by $45 for the three months
ended December 24, 1998 and $179 for the year ended September 24, 1998.

(h) Reflects the elimination of operations not acquired. These operations relate
to a truckstop owned, operated and retained by Stallings Oil and equity in
earnings of affiliates of Express Stop which were not acquired by The Pantry.

disposition.
