The information disclosed under Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Form 8-K”) is incorporated herein by reference.

On Thursday, January 13, 2011, GTY NY Leasing, Inc. (“GTY NY”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Getty Realty Corp. (the “Company”), acquired fee or leasehold title to 59 Mobil-branded gasoline station and convenience store properties and also took a security interest in 6 other Mobil-branded gasoline stations and convenience store properties in a sale/leaseback and loan transaction with CPD NY Energy Corp. (“CPD NY”), a subsidiary of Chestnut Petroleum Dist. Inc. The Company’s total investment in the transaction was $111.3 million, which was financed entirely with borrowings under the Company’s existing $175.0 million credit facility.

The properties were acquired or financed in a simultaneous transaction among ExxonMobil, CPD NY and Getty Realty Corp. whereby CPD NY acquired a portfolio of 65 gasoline station and convenience stores from ExxonMobil and simultaneously completed a sale/leaseback of 59 of the acquired properties with Getty Realty Corp. The lease between GTY NY, as lessor, and CPD NY, as lessee, governing the properties is a unitary triple net lease agreement (the “Unitary Lease”), with an initial term of 15 years, and options for up to three successive renewal terms of 10 years each. The Unitary Lease requires CPD NY to pay a fixed annual rent for the properties (the “Rent”), plus an amount equal to all rent due to third party landlords pursuant to the terms of third party leases. The Rent is scheduled to increase on the third anniversary of the date of the Unitary Lease and on every third anniversary thereafter. As a triple net lessee, CPD NY is required to pay all amounts pertaining to the properties subject to the Unitary Lease, including taxes, assessments, licenses and permit fees, charges for public utilities and all governmental charges. Partial funding to CPD NY for the transaction was also provided by the Company under a secured, self-amortizing loan having a 10-year term (the “CPD Loan”). Net rent payments under the Unitary Lease together with interest earned on the CPD Loan are expected to aggregate approximately $10.2 million in calendar year 2011.

It is impracticable to provide pro forma financial information showing the impact on the Company’s historical financial statements of the acquired Properties described in Item 2.01 above at the time of this filing and no such financial information is available at this time. The Company hereby confirms that it intends to file such financial information, if required, on or before 71 days after the date the Form 8-K must be filed.
