(a)  Includes (from the respective dates of the acquisition) the effect of the $111.6 million acquisition of 59 Mobil-branded gasoline station and convenience 
store properties in a sale/leaseback and loan transaction with CPD NY Energy Corp. which were acquired on January 13, 2011 and the effect of the $87.0 
million acquisition of 66 Shell-branded gasoline station and convenience store properties in a sale/leaseback transaction with Nouria Energy Ventures I, 
LLC which were acquired on March 31, 2011.

(b)  For 2012, includes the effect of a $13.5 million accounts receivable reserve and the effect of a $6.3 million impairment charge, which are included in earnings 
from continuing operations primarily related to certain properties previously leased to Getty Petroleum Marketing Inc. under the Master Lease. For 2011, 
includes the effect of a $19.3 million non-cash deferred rent receivable reserve, the effect of a $7.6 million accounts receivable reserve, and the effect of 
a $15.9 million impairment charge, which are included in earnings from continuing operations primarily related to certain properties previously leased to 
Getty  Petroleum  Marketing  Inc.  under  the  Master  Lease.  (For  additional  information,  see  “Item  7.  Management’s  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial 
Condition and Results of Operations — General — Marketing and the Master Lease” in our accompanying 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.)

(c)  In addition to measurements defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), our management also focuses 
on funds from operations (“FFO”) and adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) to measure our performance. FFO is generally considered to be an appro-
priate  supplemental  non-GAAP  measure  of  the  performance  of  real  estate  investment  trusts  (“REITs”).  In  accordance  with  the  National  Association  of 
Real Estate Investment Trusts’ modified guidance for reporting FFO, we have restated reporting of FFO to exclude non-cash impairment charges. FFO is 
defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts as net earnings before depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, gains or 
losses  on  dispositions  of  real  estate  (including  such  non-FFO  items  reported  in  discontinued  operations),  non-cash  impairment  charges,  extraordinary 
items, and cumulative effect of accounting change. Other REITs may use definitions of FFO and/or AFFO that are different than ours and; accordingly, may 
not be comparable.

We  believe  that  FFO  and  AFFO  are  helpful  to  investors  in  measuring  our  performance  because  both  FFO  and  AFFO  exclude  various  items  included  in 
GAAP net earnings that do not relate to, or are not indicative of, our fundamental operating performance. FFO excludes various items such as gains or 
losses from property dispositions, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and non-cash impairment charges. In our case; however, GAAP net 
earnings and FFO typically include the impact of deferred rental revenue (straight-line rental revenue), the net amortization of above-market and below-
market  leases  and  income  recognized  from  direct  financing  leases  on  the  recognition  of  revenue  from  rental  properties  (collectively  the  “Revenue 
Recognition Adjustments”), as offset by the impact of related collection reserves. GAAP net earnings and FFO from time to time may also include other 
unusual or infrequently occurring items. Deferred rental revenue results primarily from fixed rental increases scheduled under certain leases with our ten-
ants. In accordance with GAAP, the aggregate minimum rent due over the current term of these leases are recognized on a straight-line (or an average) 
basis rather than when the payment is contractually due. The present value of the difference between the fair market rent and the contractual rent for in-
place leases at the time properties are acquired is amortized into revenue from rental properties over the remaining lives of the in-place leases. Income 
from direct financing leases is recognized over the lease terms using the effective interest method which produces a constant periodic rate of return on the 
net investments in the leased properties.

Management  pays  particular  attention  to  AFFO,  a  supplemental  non-GAAP  performance  measure  that  we  define  as  FFO  less  Revenue  Recognition 
Adjustments, allowance for deferred rental revenue, acquisition costs, and other unusual or infrequently occurring items. In management’s view, AFFO 
provides a more accurate depiction than FFO of our fundamental operating performance related to: (i) the impact of scheduled rent increases from operat-
ing leases; (ii) the rental revenue from acquired in-place leases; (iii) the impact of rent due from direct financing leases; and (iv) the impact of other unusual 
or infrequently occurring items. Neither FFO nor AFFO represent cash generated from operating activities calculated in accordance with GAAP and there-
fore  these  measures  should  not  be  considered  an  alternative  for  GAAP  net  earnings  or  as  a  measure  of  liquidity.  (FFO  and  AFFO  are  reconciled  to  net 
earnings in “Item 6. Selected Financial Data” in our accompanying 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.)

G e t t y   R e a lt y  C oRp.

Fellow Shareholders,

As I sat down to write this letter, I took some time to reflect on how just how far our Company 

has progressed from the uncertainty we faced during the past 18 months. We made remarkable 

progress during 2012 in managing our business through the challenges resulting from the bankruptcy 

of our largest tenant (Marketing) at the end of 2011. And while we still have work ahead, we 

ended 2012 with our Company already on a path towards resuming growth to drive increased 

cash flow.

In 2012 Getty:

•  Prevailed against Marketing and repossessed our portfolio of properties from them in an  

orderly manner;

•  Navigated through a complex set of economic and regulatory issues to preserve underlying 

value in our portfolio;

•  Refinanced our credit facilities on market terms without additional damage to our portfolio or 

equity value at what proved to be a time of significant uncertainty in Marketing’s bankruptcy;

•  Materially improved our overall diversification and the credit quality of our tenant base with 

newly signed leases;

•  Entered into ten new long-term triple net leases covering more than 440 locations previously 

leased to Marketing with eight tenants including three NYSE listed companies and three other 

proven long-term partners; 

•  Purchased a ten-year $50 million aggregate environmental insurance policy protecting against 

unknown environmental liabilities; and

•  Sold 54 properties for $14.4 million.

As difficult as things were in 2011, the circumstances provided a catalyst for change and our Board 

and management team seized upon the opportunity to pursue a transformation of our tenant base. 

The result of these efforts has made Getty a more diversified, stronger and agile company than 

we were previously while preserving meaningful opportunity for upside in our future as we restart 

our pursuit of accretive growth to build sustainable value.

As we moved into 2013 with a lot of the repositioning accomplished, we were able to refinance 

our Company’s debt again, but this time from a position of far greater strength. Our renewed 

financial stability enabled us to secure, at more favorable terms, a combination of bank and long-

term fixed rate debt.

This recent 2013 refinancing lengthened our maturities, reduced our exposure to variable interest 

rates and, most important of all, provided us with more than $100 million of capacity to help pursue 

continued growth of the Company.

The benefits of our efforts are beginning to be reflected in our ability to support dividends. In 2012 

we paid our shareholders $0.375 per common share during the year. Based on the progress we 

have made to date, in the first quarter of 2013 we declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.20 per 

common share representing a 60% increase in the dividend rate over the immediately prior quarter.

In 2013, we are continuing to strengthen our portfolio and improve the quality of our cash flow by 

further refining our asset base. Almost all of our new leases have provisions for funding improve-

ments in our properties. Contributions to fund these improvements are made by both Getty and 

our new tenants. Most of these improvements will occur during the next five years and will result 

in our portfolio being newer, more competitive and having greater underlying value.

In addition, we plan to continue our efforts to reposition our portfolio to maximize its value. To that 

end as of this writing we have already sold 50 properties this year, including one terminal, for 

$18.3 million in the aggregate. We anticipate that reinvestment of the proceeds from these sales 

will yield enhanced returns in the coming years. 

Ended 2012 with our 
Company already on a path 
towards resuming growth to 
drive increased cash flow.

Entered into ten new long-term 
triple-net leases covering 
440 locations.

G e t t y   R e a lt y  C oRp.

We are also engaged in numerous other activities to drive enhanced value that we believe will 

contribute to our performance in the years to come. Beyond just optimizing our existing portfolio, 

we are returning our attention toward accretive growth via select acquisitions.

In light of everything we have been through, I think it is useful to take a moment to articulate 

some of our most fundamental thoughts as they relate to our growth objectives.

Our mission is to deliver a secure and growing stream of dividends. We also want to provide a 

measure of inflation protection by participating in residual rights in real properties.

Our focus is investments in the convenience and gas sector. This sector is highly specialized with 

unique risks, but we believe our management team has the expertise to successfully navigate  

the sector. The sector possesses certain inherent characteristics that we find attractive including 

inelastic demand at the customer level and real property with portfolio qualities and multiple 

 alternative uses.

We are generally indifferent regarding store format, preferring locations where the delivery of fuel, 

whether fossil fuel as it is today or a mix or blend of renewable fuels, natural gas or even electricity 

in the future, is an integral part of the business conducted on-site. At the end of the day, we are 

agnostic about specific fuels, rather preferring to concentrate on the real estate and focusing on 

locations convenient to vital highway and transportation routes that will drive customer visits  

to get fuel regardless of the specific fuel option or store format in a location.

Materially improved our overall 
diversification and the credit 
quality of our tenant base with 
newly signed leases.

54 properties 
sold in 2012 and  
50 to date in 2013.

this team continues  
to work tirelessly to 
deliver results.

We are optimistic we can execute 

on our business plan to build 

steady and rising dividends.

We will also continue to employ leverage on a conservative basis and intend to continue using 

modest amounts of leverage to enhance shareholder returns in the future.

We are optimistic we can execute on our business plan to build steady and rising dividends with 

enhanced residual values of our properties to build rising shareholder value over time.

I want to close as I always do by thanking my colleagues for their hard work, dedication and good 

humor over the past year. This team continues to work tirelessly to deliver results and going forward 

is committed to building on the progress that has been made to date. I thank our team for their 

efforts and our shareholders for their patience and with that, may 2013 be filled (up) with success. 

Sincerely,

David B. Driscoll

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

“projects,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “predicts” and similar expressions, we intend to identify forward-looking statements. 
(All  capitalized  and  undefined  terms  used  in  this  section  shall  have  the  same  meanings  hereafter  defined  in  this  Annual 
Report on Form 10-K.) 

Examples of forward-looking statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K include, but are not limited to,

satisfy  our  claims  against  the  Marketing  Estate;  our  expectations  that  we  may  collect  amounts  we  advance  under  the 
Litigation  Funding  Agreement;  our  beliefs  regarding  the  amount  of  revenue  we  expect  to  realize  from  our  properties;  our 
expectations regarding incurring costs associated with repositioning of our properties; our expectations regarding incurring

our  environmental  liabilities  and  remediation  costs  including  the  Marketing  Environmental  Liabilities  and  other 
environmental remediation costs; our belief that our accruals for environmental and litigation matters were appropriate based 
on  the  information  then  available;  compliance  with  federal,  state  and  local  provisions  enacted  or  adopted  pertaining  to 
environmental  matters;  the  probable  outcome  of  litigation  or  regulatory  actions  and  their  impact  on  us;  our  expected 
recoveries  from  underground  storage  tank  funds;  our  expectations  regarding  our  indemnification  obligations  and  others; 
future acquisitions and financing opportunities and their impact on our financial performance; the adequacy of our current 
and anticipated cash flows from operations, borrowings under our Credit Agreement and available cash and cash equivalents; 
our expectation as to our continued compliance with the financial covenants in our Credit Agreement and Prudential Loan 
Agreement; and our ability to maintain our federal tax status as a real estate investment trust. 

These forward-looking statements are based on our current beliefs and assumptions and information currently available 
to us, and involve known and unknown risks (including the risks described below in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and in “Item 7. 
Management’s  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and  Results  of  Operations”  herein,  and  other  risks  that  we 
describe from time to time in this and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)), uncertainties 
and  other  factors  which  may  cause  our  actual  results,  performance  and  achievements  to  be  materially  different  from  any 
future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. 

These  risks  include,  but  are  not  limited  to  risks  associated  with:  repositioning  our  properties  that  were  previously 
subject  to  the  Master  Lease  and  the  adverse  impact  such  repositioning  may  have  on  our  cash  flows  and  ability  to  pay 
dividends; our estimates and assumptions regarding expenses, claims and accruals relating to pre-petition and post-petition 
claims  against  Marketing,  the  process  of  taking  control  of  our  properties,  including  the  likelihood  of  our  success  in  the 
eviction  proceedings  we  have  commenced,  and  repositioning  such  properties;  the  liquidation  of  the  Marketing  Estate  and 
risks associated with prosecuting the Lukoil Complaint, including our obligations under the Litigation Funding Agreement; 
the  performance  of  our  tenants  of  their  lease  obligations,  renewal  of  existing  leases  and  re-letting  or  selling  our  vacant 
properties;  our  ability  to  obtain  favorable  terms  on  any  properties  that  we  sell  or  re-let;  the  uncertainty  of  our  estimates, 
judgments  and  assumptions  associated  with  our  accounting  policies  and  methods;  our  dependence  on  external  sources  of 
capital; our business operations generating sufficient cash for distributions or debt service; potential future acquisitions; our 
ability to acquire new properties; owning and leasing real estate generally; substantially all of our tenants depending on the 
same  industry  for  their  revenues;  property  taxes;  costs  of  completing  environmental  remediation  and  of  compliance  with 
environmental  legislation  and  regulations;  potential  exposure  related  to  pending  lawsuits  and  claims;  owning  real  estate 
primarily  concentrated  in  the  Northeast  and  Mid-Atlantic  regions  of  the  United  States;  counterparty  risk;  expenses  not 
covered  by  insurance;  the  impact  of  our  electing  to  be  treated  as  a  REIT  under  the  federal  income  tax  laws,  including 
subsequent failure to qualify as a REIT; changes in interest rates and our ability to manage or mitigate this risk effectively; 
our  dividend  policy  and  ability  to  pay  dividends;  dilution  as  a  result  of  future  issuances  of  equity  securities;  changes  in 
market  conditions;  Maryland  law  discouraging  a  third-party  takeover;  adverse  effect  of  inflation;  the  loss  of  a  member  or 
members  of  our  management  team;  changes  in  accounting  standards  that  may  adversely  affect  our  financial  position;  and

As a result of these and other factors, we may experience material fluctuations in future operating results on a quarterly 
or annual basis, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results, ability to pay 
dividends or stock price. An investment in our stock involves various risks, including those mentioned above and elsewhere 
in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and those that are described from time to time in our other filings with the SEC. 

You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect our view only as of the date hereof. 
We  undertake  no  obligation  to  publicly  release  revisions  to  these  forward-looking  statements  that  reflect  future  events  or

Company Profile 

PART I 

Getty Realty Corp., a Maryland corporation, is the leading publicly-traded real estate investment trust (“REIT”) in the 
United States specializing in the ownership, leasing and financing of retail motor fuel and convenience store properties and 
petroleum distribution terminals. Our properties are located in 21 states across the United States with concentrations in the 
Northeast and the Mid-Atlantic regions. Our properties are operated under a variety of brands including Getty, BP, Exxon, 
Mobil, Shell, Chevron, Valero and Aloha. We own the Getty® trademark and trade name in connection with our real estate 
and the petroleum marketing business in the United States. 

We  are  self-administered  and  self-managed  by  our  management  team,  which  has  extensive  experience  in  owning, 
leasing and managing retail motor fuel and convenience store properties. We have invested, and will continue to invest, in 
real estate and real estate related investments, such as mortgage loans, when appropriate opportunities arise. 

The History of Our Company 

Our founders started  the business  in 1955 with  the ownership of  one gasoline  service  station  in New York  City  and 
combined real estate ownership, leasing and management with service station operation and petroleum distribution. We held 
our  initial  public  offering  in  1971  under  the  name  Power  Test  Corp.  We  acquired,  from  Texaco  in  1985,  the  petroleum 
distribution  and  marketing  assets  of  Getty  Oil  Company  in  the  Northeast  United  States  along  with  the  Getty®  name  and 
trademark in connection with our real estate and the petroleum marketing business in the United States. We became one of 
the leading independent owner/operators of petroleum marketing assets in the country, serving retail and wholesale customers 
through a distribution and marketing network of Getty® and other branded retail motor fuel and convenience store properties 
and petroleum distribution terminals. 

Getty  Petroleum  Marketing,  Inc.  (“Marketing”)  was  formed  to  facilitate  the  spin-off  of  our  petroleum  marketing 
business  to  our  shareholders  which  was  completed  in  1997.  Marketing  was  acquired  by  a  U.S.  subsidiary  of  OAO  Lukoil 
(“Lukoil”) in December 2000. In connection with Lukoil’s acquisition of Marketing, we renegotiated our long-term unitary 
triple-net  lease  (the  “Master  Lease”)  with  Marketing.  On  December  5,  2011,  Marketing  filed  for  Chapter  11  bankruptcy 
protection in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). Marketing rejected the 
Master Lease pursuant to an Order issued by the Bankruptcy Court, effective April 30, 2012 and possession of the then 788 
properties subject to the Master Lease was returned to us. 

As of December 31, 2012, more than 700 properties that we own or lease were previously leased to Marketing. During 
2012, we entered into ten long-term triple-net unitary leases re-letting, in the aggregate, 443 operating properties previously 
leased to Marketing. The new leases generally have 15 year initial terms with provisions for renewal terms and annual rent 
escalations. We sold 54 properties for $15.4 million in the aggregate during 2012. As of the date of this filing on Form 10-K, 
in 2013, we have sold an additional 42 properties for $17.5 million in the aggregate, including one terminal. Certain of the 
properties previously leased to Marketing are subject to month-to-month licensing agreements and our temporary fuel supply 
agreement  (described  in  more  detail  below).  The  balance  of  the  remaining  properties  previously  leased  to  Marketing  are 
accounted for as held for sale and are either subject to month-to-month licensing agreements, or are vacant. 

Since  May  2003,  we  have  acquired  approximately  400  properties  in  various  states  in  transactions  valued  at 
approximately $523 million. These acquisitions include single property transactions and portfolio transactions ranging in size 
from 18 properties with an aggregate value of approximately $13 million up to a portfolio comprised of 59 properties with an 
aggregate value of approximately $111 million. 

Company Operations 

As of December 31, 2012, we owned 946 properties and leased 135 properties. Our typical property is used as a retail 
motor  fuel  outlet  and  convenience  store,  and  is  located  on  between  one-half  and  three  quarters  of  an  acre  of  land  in  a 
metropolitan  area.  The  properties  that  we  have  acquired  since  2007  are  generally  located  on  larger  parcels  of  land.  We 
believe our network of retail motor fuel and convenience store properties and terminal properties across the Northeast and the 
Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States is unique and that comparable networks of properties are not readily available for 
purchase or lease from other owners or landlords. Many of our properties are located at highly trafficked urban intersections 
or conveniently close to highway entrance or exit ramps.

Our business model is to lease our properties on a triple-net basis primarily to petroleum distributors and to a lesser 
extent to individual operators. Our tenants operate our properties directly or sublet our properties to operators who operate 
their gas stations, convenience stores, automotive repair service facilities or other businesses at our properties. These tenants 
are  responsible  for  the  operations  conducted  at  these  properties.  Our  triple-net  tenants  are  generally  responsible  for  the 
payment of all taxes, maintenance, repairs, insurance and other operating expenses relating to our properties. 

In addition, with respect to certain properties that we are repositioning, we have entered into month-to-month license 
agreements  and  interim  fuel  supply  arrangements.  We  receive  monthly  occupancy  payments  directly  from  the  licensee-
operators  while  we  remain  responsible  for  certain  costs  associated  with  the  properties.  These  month-to-month  license 
agreements  allow  the  licensees  to  occupy  and  use  the  properties  as  gas  stations,  convenience  stores  or  automotive  repair 
service facilities, and require the licensee-operators to sell fuel provided exclusively by a third party, with whom  we have 
contracted  for  interim  fuel  supply.  Under  our  agreement  with  the  third  party  fuel  supplier,  the  third  party  fuel  supplier  is 
required to pay us a fee based in part on gallons sold and we pay to the third party fuel supplier a monthly administrative 
service fee. Our month-to-month license agreements differ from our triple-net lease arrangements in that, among other things, 
we  are  responsible  for  the  payment  of  certain  environmental  compliance  costs  and  property  operating  expenses  including 
maintenance and real estate taxes. We intend to reposition these properties in order to maximize their value to us taking into 
account  each property’s  intermediate  and  long-term  investment  requirements  and  potential.  As  a  result  of  this  process,  we 
expect that we  may dispose of or lease these remaining properties, either individually or in small portfolios. We also may 
make  investments  in  certain  of  these  properties  in  anticipation  of  leasing  them  or  by  contribution  to  capital  expenditures 
required to be made by our tenants. We cannot predict the timing or the terms of any future sales or leases. 

Substantially all of our tenants’ financial results depend on the sale of refined petroleum products and rental income 
from their subtenants. As a result, our tenants’ financial results are highly dependent on the performance of the petroleum 
marketing industry, which is highly competitive and subject to volatility. In those instances where we determine that the best 
use for a property is no longer as a gas station, we will seek an alternative tenant or buyer for the property. As of December 
31, 2012, approximately 20 of our properties are leased for uses such as quick serve restaurants, automobile sales and other 
retail  purposes,  excluding  approximately  40  properties  previously  subject  to  the  Master  Lease  with  Marketing  which  are 
currently held for sale and which have temporary occupancies. (For additional information regarding our real estate business 
and our properties, see “Item 1. Business — Real Estate Business” and “Item 2. Properties”.) 

One  of  our  tenants,  CPD  NY  Energy  Corp.,  a  subsidiary  of  Chestnut  Petroleum  Dist.  (together  with  its  affiliates, 
“CPD”), represents 18% and 12% of our revenues from rental properties for 2012 and 2011, respectively, and 26% and 12% 
of our annualized rental revenues from rental properties for 2012 and 2011, respectively. (For information regarding factors 
that could adversely affect us relating to our lessees, see “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors.) 

The sector of the real estate industry in which we operate is highly competitive. In addition, we expect major real estate 
investors with significant capital will continue to compete with us for attractive acquisition opportunities. These competitors 
include petroleum manufacturing, distributing and marketing companies, other REITs, public and private investment funds 
and other individual and institutional investors. Generally, we seek leases with tenants that have an initial term of 15 years 
and  include provisions  for  rental  increases during  the  term  of  the  lease.  As of  December 31, 2012, our  average  lease  term 
including month-to-month license agreements, weighted by the number of underlying properties, was in excess of 9.8 years 
excluding  renewal  options.  Retail  motor  fuel  properties  are  an  integral  component  of  the  transportation  infrastructure. 
Stability  within  the  retail  motor  fuel  and  convenience  store  industry  is  driven  by  highly  inelastic  demand  for  petroleum 
products and day-to-day consumer goods and fast foods, which supports our tenants. 

We  elected  to  be  treated  as  a  REIT  under  the  federal  income  tax  laws  beginning  January 1,  2001.  A  REIT  is  a 
corporation,  or  a  business  trust  that  would  otherwise  be  taxed  as  a  corporation,  which  meets  certain  requirements  of  the 
Internal Revenue Code. The Internal Revenue Code permits a qualifying REIT to deduct dividends paid, thereby effectively 
eliminating corporate level federal income tax and making the REIT a pass-through vehicle for federal income tax purposes. 
To meet the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, a REIT must, among other things, invest substantially all 
of its assets in interests in real estate (including mortgages and other REITs) or cash and government securities, derive most 
of  its  income  from  rents  from  real  property  or  interest  on  loans  secured  by  mortgages  on  real  property,  and  distribute  to 
shareholders annually a substantial portion of its otherwise taxable income. As a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 
90% of our taxable income to our shareholders each year and would be subject to corporate level federal income taxes on any 
taxable income that is not distributed.

Acquisition Strategy and Activity 

As  part  of  our  overall  growth  strategy,  we  regularly  review  acquisition  and  financing  opportunities  to  acquire 
additional properties, and we expect to continue to pursue acquisitions that we believe will benefit our financial performance. 
Our investment strategy is aimed at achieving a high quality real estate portfolio and geographic diversification. We employ 
investment personnel to pursue acquisitions that are consistent with this strategy. A key element of our investment strategy is 
to acquire properties in strong primary markets that serve high density population centers. 

We  review  such  opportunities  on  an  ongoing  basis  and  may  have  one  or  more  potential  acquisitions  under 
consideration at any point in time, which may be at varying stages of the negotiation and due diligence review process. To 
the extent that our current sources of liquidity are not sufficient to fund such acquisitions, we will require other sources of 
capital, which may or may not be available on favorable terms or at all. 

In  2012,  we  acquired  fee  or  leasehold  title  to  five  gasoline  station  and  convenience  store  properties  in  separate 
transactions valued at $5.2 million. In 2011, we acquired fee or leasehold title to 125 gasoline station and convenience store 
properties in two separate transactions valued at $198.6 million. 

Since  May  2003,  we  have  acquired  approximately  400  properties  in  various  states  in  transactions  valued  at 
approximately $523 million. These acquisitions include single property transactions and portfolio transactions ranging in size 
from 18 properties with an aggregate value of approximately $13 million up to a portfolio comprised of 59 properties with an 
aggregate value of approximately $111 million. 

Trademarks 

We own the Getty® name and trademark in connection with our real estate and the petroleum marketing business in the 

United States and we permit certain of our tenants to use the Getty® trademarks at properties that they lease from us. 

Regulation 

We  are  subject  to  numerous  existing  federal,  state  and  local  laws  and  regulations  including  matters  related  to  the 
protection of the environment such as the remediation of known contamination and the retirement and decommissioning or 
removal  of  long-lived  assets  including  buildings  containing  hazardous  materials,  underground  storage  tanks  (“UST”  or 
“USTs”) and other equipment. Petroleum properties are governed by numerous federal, state and local environmental laws 
and  regulations.  These  laws  have  included:  (i) requirements  to  report  to  governmental  authorities  discharges  of  petroleum 
products  into  the  environment  and,  under  certain  circumstances,  to  remediate  the  soil  and/or  groundwater  contamination 
pursuant  to  governmental  order  and  directive,  (ii) requirements  to  remove  and  replace  USTs  that  have  exceeded 
governmental-mandated  age  limitations,  and  (iii) the  requirement  to  provide  a  certificate  of  financial  responsibility  with 
respect  to  claims  relating  to  UST  failures.  Our  tenants  are  directly  responsible  for  compliance  with  various  environmental 
laws and regulations as the operators of our properties. 

We believe that we are in substantial compliance with federal, state and local provisions enacted or adopted pertaining 
to environmental matters. Although we are unable to predict what legislation or regulations may be adopted in the future with 
respect  to  environmental  protection  and  waste  disposal,  existing  legislation  and  regulations  have  had  no  material  adverse 
effect on our competitive position. (For additional information with respect to pending environmental lawsuits and claims see 
“Item 3. Legal Proceedings”.) 

Environmental  expenses  are  principally  attributable  to  remediation  costs  which  include  installing,  operating, 
maintaining  and  decommissioning  remediation  systems,  monitoring  contamination,  and  governmental  agency  reporting 
incurred in connection with contaminated properties. We seek reimbursement from state UST remediation funds related to 
these  environmental  expenses  where  available.  We  enter  into  leases  and  various  other  agreements  which  allocate 
responsibility  for  known  and  unknown  environmental  liabilities  by  establishing  the  percentage  and  method  of  allocating 
responsibility  between  the  parties.  In  accordance  with  leases  with  certain  tenants,  we  have  agreed  to  bring  the  leased 
properties  with  known  environmental  contamination  to  within  applicable  standards,  and  to  either  regulatory  or  contractual 
closure (“Closure”) in an efficient and economical manner. Generally, upon achieving Closure at each individual property, 
our environmental liability under the lease for that property will be satisfied and future remediation obligations will be the 
responsibility of our tenant. 

7 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Our  tenants  are  directly  responsible  to  pay  for  (i) remediation  of  environmental  contamination  they  cause  and 
compliance  with  various  environmental  laws  and  regulations  as  the  operators  of  our  properties,  and  (ii) environmental 
liabilities  allocated  to  them  under  the  terms  of  our  leases  and  various  other  agreements.  Generally,  the  liability  for  the 
retirement and decommissioning or removal of USTs and other equipment is the responsibility of our triple-net tenants. We 
are contingently liable for these obligations in the event that our tenants do not satisfy their responsibilities. A liability has 
not been accrued for obligations that are the responsibility of our tenants (other than Marketing’s environmental obligations 
which we accrued in the fourth quarter of 2011). However, there can be no assurance that our assessments are correct or that 
our tenants who have paid their obligations in the past will continue to do so. 

For  additional  information  please  refer  to  “Item  1A.  Risk  Factors”  and  to  “Liquidity  and  Capital  Resources,” 
“Environmental Matters”, ”Contractual Obligations” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
Results of Operations” which appear in Item 7. and note 6 in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data — Notes 
to Consolidated Financial Statements.” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. 

Personnel 

As of March 18, 2013, we had 37 employees.

Item 1A. Risk Factors 

We are subject to various risks, many of which are beyond our control. As a result of these and other factors, we may 
experience  material  fluctuations  in  our  future  operating  results  on  a  quarterly  or  annual  basis,  which  could  materially  and 
adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends or stock price. An 
investment  in  our  stock  involves  various  risks,  including  those  mentioned  below  and  elsewhere  in  this  Annual  Report  on 
Form 10-K and those that are described from time to time in our other filings with the SEC. 

We  are  repositioning  our  properties  that  were  previously  leased  to  Marketing.  We  expect  to  incur  significant  costs 
associated  with  repositioning  these  properties  and  we  expect  to  generate  less  net  revenue  after  leasing  or  selling  these 
properties. The incurrence of these costs and receipt of less net revenue may materially negatively impact our cash flow 
and ability to pay dividends. 

We  are  in  the process of  repositioning  the properties  that  were  previously  leased  to  Getty  Petroleum  Marketing Inc. 
(“Marketing”) comprising a unitary premises pursuant to a master lease (the “Master Lease”). During 2012, we have entered 
into  long-term  triple-net  leases  with  respect  to  443  of  these  properties.  In  addition,  we  have  entered  into  month-to-month 
license agreements and interim fuel supply arrangements with respect to our operating properties. The remaining properties 
previously  leased  to  Marketing  are  accounted  for  as  held  for  sale,  and  are  either  subject  to  month-to-month  licensing 
agreements or are vacant. Our month-to-month license agreements allow the licensee to occupy and to use the properties for 
gas stations, convenience stores, automotive repair service facilities or other businesses. We receive monthly payments from 
the  licensee-operators  while  remaining  responsible  for  all  operating  expenses,  including  maintenance,  repairs,  real  estate 
taxes, insurance and general upkeep (“Property Expenditures”) and environmental costs. Dependent on factors related to each 
site,  we  expect  to  directly  pay  for  varying  types  of  costs  over  a  period  of  years  for  deferred  maintenance,  required 
renovations,  replacement  of  underground  storage  tanks  and  related  equipment  and  zoning  and  permitting  costs  (“Capital 
Improvements”).  It  is  possible  we  may  enter  into  additional  long-term  triple-net  leases  for  certain  of  these  properties  with 
tenants who are actively engaged in the business of retail petroleum marketing. 

8 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We,  or  our  tenants,  have  commenced  eviction  proceedings  involving  approximately  40  properties  in  various 
jurisdictions against Marketing’s former subtenants (or sub-subtenants) who have not vacated our properties and occupy our 
properties without rights. We are incurring significant costs, primarily legal expenses, in connection with such proceedings. 

We  are  currently  generating  less  net  revenue  from  the  leasing  of  these  properties  and  we  expect  that  following  the 
completion of the repositioning process, we will continue to generate less net revenue from these properties than previously 
received  from  Marketing.  In  addition,  dependent  on  factors  related  to  each  site  we  expect  to  directly  pay  for  Property 
Expenditures during the repositioning process and possibly thereafter and for Capital Improvements over a period of years. 

It  is  possible  that  issues  involved  in  re-letting  or  repositioning  these  properties  may  require  significant  management 
attention  that  would  otherwise  be  devoted  to  our  ongoing  business.  The  incurrence  of  these  costs  and  receipt  of  less  net 
revenue from our properties that were subject to the Master Lease may materially negatively impact our cash flow and ability 
to pay dividends. 

Our future cash flow is dependent on the performance of our tenants of their lease obligations, renewal of existing leases 
and either re-letting or selling our vacant properties. 

We  are  subject  to  risks  that  financial  distress,  default  or  bankruptcy  of  our  tenants  may  lead  to  vacancy  at  our 
properties or disruption in rent receipts as a result of partial payment or nonpayment of rent or that expiring leases may not be 
renewed.  Under  unfavorable  general  economic  conditions,  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  our  tenants’  level  of  sales  and 
financial performance generally will not be adversely affected, which in turn, could impact the reliability of our rent receipts. 
We  are  subject  to  risks  that  the  terms  governing  renewal  or  re-letting  of  our  properties  (including  the  cost  of  required 
renovations,  replacement  of  underground  storage  tanks  and  related  equipment  or  environmental  remediation)  may  be  less 
favorable than current lease terms (or prior lease terms in the case of vacant properties). We are also subject to the risk that 
we may receive less net proceeds from the properties we sell as compared to their current carrying value or that the value of 
our  properties  may  be  adversely  affected  by  unfavorable  general  economic  conditions.  Unfavorable  general  economic 
conditions  may  also  negatively  impact  our  ability  to  re-let  or  sell  our  properties.  Numerous  properties  compete  with  our 
properties in attracting tenants to lease space. The number of available or competitive properties in a particular area could 
have a material adverse effect on our ability to lease or sell our properties and on the rents we are able to charge. In addition 
to the risk of disruption in rent receipts, we are subject to the risk of incurring real estate taxes, maintenance, environmental 
and other expenses at vacant properties. 

The  financial  distress,  default  or  bankruptcy  of  our  tenants  may  also  lead  to  protracted  and  expensive  processes  for 
retaking control of our properties than would otherwise be the case, including, eviction or other legal proceedings related to 
or  resulting  from  the  tenant’s  default.  These  risks  are  greater  with  respect  to  certain  of  our  tenants  who  lease  multiple 
properties from us. If a tenant files for bankruptcy protection it is possible that we would recover substantially less than the 
full value of our claims against the tenant. If our tenants do not perform their lease obligations; or we are unable to renew 
existing leases and promptly recapture and re-let or sell vacant locations; or if lease terms upon renewal or re-letting are less 
favorable than current lease terms; or if the values of properties that we sell are adversely affected by market conditions; or if 
we incur significant costs or disruption related to or resulting from tenant financial distress, default or bankruptcy; then our 
cash flow could be significantly adversely affected. 

We  are  continuing  our  efforts  to  sell  certain  properties.  We  cannot  predict  the  terms  or  timing  of  any  such  property 
dispositions. If we do not obtain favorable terms on such dispositions, our operations and financial performance maybe 
negatively impacted. 

We  are  continuing  our  efforts  to  sell properties,  including  those  properties  which  are  accounted for  as  held  for  sale. 
While  we  have  dedicated  considerable  effort  designed  to  increase  sales  activity,  we  cannot  predict  if  or  when  property 
dispositions will close and whether the terms of any such disposition will be favorable to us. It is likely that we will retain 
environmental liabilities that exist with respect to that property or group of properties prior to the date of sale, to the extent 
there  is  no  third-party  responsible  therefor.  If  we  do  not  obtain  favorable  terms  on  such  dispositions,  our  operations  and 
financial performance will be negatively impacted. 

We maintain significant pre-petition and post-petition claims against Marketing. We cannot provide any assurance that 
our claims will be accepted or paid 

As  part  of  Marketing’s  bankruptcy  proceeding,  we  maintain  significant  pre-petition  and  post-petition  claims  against 
Marketing. Certain of our claims are considered administrative claims and have priority over other claims. We have agreed to 
cap our aggregate priority administrative claims at the amount of $10.5 million, together with interest from May 1, 2012 until 

9 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
paid at the rate provided in the Master Lease. As of the date of this filing on Form 10-K, the outstanding unpaid principal 
amount  of  our  Administrative  Claim  is  $7.4  million.  We  cannot  predict  how  much  of  these  unpaid  obligations  we  will 
ultimately collect, if any. 

We have agreed to advance funds to the liquidating trustee of the Marketing Estate. We cannot give any assurance that we 
will be repaid any amounts of our loans or be reimbursed for our legal fees. 

The  Bankruptcy  Court  has  appointed  a  liquidating  trustee  to  oversee  the  liquidation  of  the  Marketing  estate  (the 
“Marketing  Estate”).  In  December  2011,  the  Marketing  Estate  filed  a  lawsuit  against  Marketing’s  former  parent,  Lukoil 
Americas  Corporation,  and  certain  of  its  affiliates  (collectively,  “Lukoil”),  as  well  as  the  former  directors  and  officers  of 
Marketing (the “Lukoil Complaint”). The Lukoil Complaint asserts, among other claims, that Marketing’s sale of assets to 
Lukoil  in  November  2009  constituted  a  fraudulent  conveyance,  and  that  the  assets  or  their  value  can  be  recovered  from 
Lukoil.  In  addition,  the  Lukoil  Complaint  asserts  that  the  former  directors  and  officers  violated  their  fiduciary  duties  to 
Marketing in approving and effectuating the challenged sale, and are liable for money damages. The Liquidating Trustee is 
pursuing these claims for the benefit of the Marketing Estate. 

In October 2012, we entered into an agreement with the Marketing Estate to make loans and otherwise fund up to an 
aggregate  amount  of  $6.4  million  to  fund  the  prosecution  of  the  Lukoil  Complaint  and  certain  expenses  incurred  by  the 
Marketing Estate (the “Litigation Funding Agreement”). It is possible that we may agree to advance amounts in excess of 
$6.4  million.  We  advanced  $1.7  million  in  the  fourth  quarter  of  2012  and  $0.1  million  in  the  first  quarter  of  2013  to  the 
Marketing Estate pursuant to the Litigation Funding Agreement. The Litigation Funding Agreement also provides that we are 
entitled to be reimbursed for up to $1.3 million of our legal fees in connection with the Litigation Funding Agreement. Based 
on the terms of the Litigation Funding Agreement, we have recorded a receivable of $3.0 million as of December 31, 2012, 
which includes amounts advanced and amounts due for reimbursable legal fees we incurred in connection with the Litigation 
Funding  Agreement.  Payments  that  we  receive  pursuant  to  the  Litigation  Funding  Agreement  will  not  reduce  our 
Administrative  Claim  or  our  other  pre-petition  and  post-petition  claims  against  Marketing.  A  portion  of  the  payments  we 
receive  pursuant  to  the  Litigation  Funding  Agreement  may  be  subject  to  federal  income  taxes.  We  cannot  provide  any 
assurance that we will be repaid any amounts we advance pursuant to the Litigation Funding Agreement or the reimbursable 
legal fees we have incurred. 

Our accounting policies and methods are fundamental to how we record and report our financial position and results of 
operations,  and  they  require  management  to  make  estimates,  judgments  and  assumptions  about  matters  that  are 
inherently uncertain. 

Our accounting policies and methods are fundamental to how we record and report our financial position and results of 
operations. We have identified several accounting policies as being critical to the presentation of our financial position and 
results of operations because they require management to make particularly subjective or complex judgments about matters 
that  are  inherently  uncertain  and  because  of  the  likelihood  that  materially  different  amounts  would  be  recorded  under 
different  conditions  or  using  different  assumptions.  We  cannot  provide  any  assurance  that  we  will  not  make  subsequent 
significant  adjustments  to  our  consolidated  financial  statements.  Estimates,  judgments  and  assumptions  underlying  our 
consolidated  financial  statements  include, but  are  not  limited  to,  receivables  and  related  reserves,  deferred  rent  receivable, 
income  under  direct  financing  leases,  asset  retirement  obligations  including  environmental  remediation  obligations,  real 
estate,  depreciation  and  amortization,  impairment  of  long-lived  assets,  litigation,  accrued  liabilities,  income  taxes  and 
allocation of the purchase price of properties acquired to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. 

If our accounting policies, methods, judgments, assumptions and allocations prove to be incorrect, or if circumstances 
change,  our  business,  financial  condition,  revenues,  operating  expense,  results  of  operations,  liquidity,  ability  to  pay 
dividends or stock price may be materially adversely affected. 

We are dependent on external sources of capital which may not be available on favorable terms, or at all. 

We  are  dependent  on  external  sources  of  capital  to  maintain  our  status  as  a  REIT  and  must  distribute  to  our 
shareholders each year at least 90% of our net taxable income, excluding any net capital gain. Because of these distribution 
requirements, it is not likely that we will be able to fund all future capital needs, including acquisitions, from income from 
operations. Therefore, we will have to continue to rely on third-party sources of capital, which may or may not be available 
on favorable terms, or at all.

Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash flows from operations, funds available under our Credit Agreement that 
matures  in  August  2015,  and  available  cash  and  cash  equivalents.  On  February  25,  2013,  we  entered  into  a  $175  million 
senior  secured  revolving  credit  agreement  (the  “Credit  Agreement”)  with  a  group  of  commercial  banks  led  by  JPMorgan 
Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Bank Syndicate”), which is scheduled to mature in August 2015 and a $100 million senior secured 
long-term  loan  agreement  with  the  Prudential  Insurance  Company  of  America  (the  “Prudential  Loan  Agreement”),  which 
matures in February 2021. On February 25, 2013, we also repaid and terminated our existing credit agreement with a group 
of  commercial  banks  led  by  JPMorgan  Chase  Bank,  N.A.  and  our  term  loan  agreement  with  TD  Bank.  For  additional 
information, please refer to “Credit Agreement” and “Prudential Loan Agreement” in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and 
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources” which appears in this Annual 
Report on Form 10-K. 

Our  ability  to  meet  the  financial  and  other  covenants  relating  to  our  Credit  Agreement  and  our  Prudential  Loan 
Agreement is dependent on our continued ability to meet certain criteria as further described in note 4 in “Item 8. Financial 
Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” and the performance of our tenants. If we 
are  not  in  compliance  with  one  or  more  of  our  covenants,  which  could  result  in  an  event  of  default  under  our  Credit 
Agreement or our Prudential Loan Agreement; there can be no assurance that our lenders would waive such non-compliance. 
This could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition, results of operation, liquidity, ability to pay 
dividends or stock price. 

As  part  of  our  overall  growth  strategy,  we  regularly  review  acquisition  and  financing  opportunities  to  acquire 
additional properties, and we expect to continue to pursue acquisitions that we believe will benefit our financial performance. 
To the extent that our current sources of liquidity are not sufficient to fund such acquisitions, we will require other sources of 
capital, which may or may not be available on favorable terms or at all. 

Our access to third-party sources of capital depends upon a number of factors including general market conditions, the 
market’s  perception  of  our  growth  potential,  financial  stability,  our  current  and  potential  future  earnings  and  cash 
distributions,  covenants  and  limitations  imposed  under  our  Credit  Agreement  and  our  Prudential  Loan  Agreement  and  the 
market price of our common stock. 

Our business operations may not generate sufficient cash for distributions or debt service. 

There is no assurance that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will 
be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay dividends on our common stock, to pay our indebtedness, or to 
fund  our other  liquidity  needs. We  may  not  be  able  to  repay  or refinance  existing  indebtedness on  favorable  terms,  which 
could  force  us  to  dispose  of  properties  on  disadvantageous  terms  (which  may  also  result  in  losses)  or  accept  financing  on 
unfavorable terms. 

We may acquire new properties, and this may create risks. 

We  may  acquire  or  develop  properties  when  we  believe  that  an  acquisition  or  development  matches  our  business 
strategies. These properties may have characteristics or deficiencies currently unknown to us that affect their value or revenue 
potential. It is possible that the operating performance of these properties may decline after we acquire them, they may not 
perform as expected and, if financed using debt or new equity issuances, may result in shareholder dilution. Our acquisition 
of  properties  will  expose  us  to  the  liabilities  of  those  properties,  some  of  which  we  may  not  be  aware  of  at  the  time  of 
acquisition.  We  face  competition  in  pursuing  these  acquisitions  and  we  may  not  succeed  in  leasing  acquired  properties  at 
rents  sufficient  to  cover  their  costs  of  acquisition  and  operations.  Newly  acquired  properties  may  require  significant 
management  attention  that  would  otherwise  be  devoted  to  our  ongoing  business.  We  may  not  succeed  in  consummating 
desired  acquisitions.  Consequences  arising  from  or  in  connection with  any  of  the  foregoing  could  have  a  material  adverse 
effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends or stock price. 

While we seek to grow through accretive acquisitions, acquisitions of properties may be dilutive and may not produce the 
returns that we expect and we may not be able to successfully integrate acquired properties into our portfolio or manage 
our growth effectively, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and 
growth prospects. 

Acquisitions  of  properties  may  initially  be  dilutive  to  our  net  income,  and  such  properties  may  not  perform  as  we 
expect  or  produce  the  returns  that  we  anticipate  (including,  without  limitation,  as  a  result  of  tenant  bankruptcies,  tenant 
concessions, our inability to collect rents and higher than anticipated operating expenses). Further, we may not successfully 
integrate one or more of these property acquisitions into our existing portfolio without operating disruptions or unanticipated 

11 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
costs.  Additionally,  to  the  extent  we  increase  the  size  of  our  portfolio,  we  may  not  be  able  to  adapt  our  management, 
administrative,  accounting  and  operational  systems,  or  hire  and  retain  sufficient  operational  staff  to  integrate  acquired 
properties into our portfolio or manage any future acquisitions of properties without operating disruptions or unanticipated 
costs. Moreover, our continued growth will require increased investment in management personnel, professional fees, other 
personnel, financial and management systems and controls and facilities, which will result in additional operating expenses. 
Under  the  circumstances  described  above,  our  results  of  operations,  financial  condition  and  growth  prospects  may  be 
materially and adversely affected. 

We are subject to risks inherent in owning and leasing real estate. 

We are subject to varying degrees of risk generally related to leasing and owning real estate many of which are beyond 

our control. In addition to general risks applicable to us, our risks include, among others: 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

our liability as a lessee for long-term lease obligations regardless of our revenues, 

deterioration in national, regional and local economic and real estate market conditions, 

potential changes in supply of, or demand for, rental properties similar to ours, 

competition for tenants and declining rental rates, 

difficulty in selling or re-letting properties on favorable terms or at all, 

impairments in our ability to collect rent or other payments due to us when they are due, 

increases in interest rates and adverse changes in the availability, cost and terms of financing, 

uninsured property liability, 

the impact of present or future environmental legislation and compliance with environmental laws, 

adverse changes in zoning laws and other regulations, 

acts of terrorism and war, 

acts of God, 

the potential risk of functional obsolescence of properties over time, 

the need to periodically renovate and repair our properties, and 

physical or weather-related damage to our properties. 

Each of these factors could cause a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, 
liquidity, ability to pay dividends or stock price. In addition, real estate investments are relatively illiquid, which means that 
our ability to vary our portfolio of properties in response to changes in economic and other conditions may be limited. 

Adverse developments in general business, economic, or political conditions could have a material adverse effect on us. 

Adverse  developments  in  general  business  and  economic  conditions,  including  through  recession,  downturn  or 
otherwise, either in the economy generally or in those regions in which a large portion of our business is conducted, could 
have a material adverse effect on us and significantly increase certain of the risks we are subject to. The general economic 
conditions in the United States are, and for an extended period of time may be, significantly less favorable than that of prior 
years. Among other effects, adverse economic conditions could depress real estate values, impact our ability to re-let or sell 
our properties and have an adverse effect on our tenants’ level of sales and financial performance generally. Our revenues are 
dependent  on  the  economic  success  of  our  tenants  and  any  factors  that  adversely  impact  our  tenants  could  also  have  a 
material  adverse  effect  on  our  business,  financial  condition  and  results  of  operations,  liquidity,  ability  to  pay  dividends  or 
stock price. 

Substantially all of our tenants depend on the same industry for their revenues. 

We derive substantially all of our revenues from leasing, primarily on a triple-net basis, and financing retail motor fuel 
and convenience store properties to tenants in the petroleum marketing industry. Accordingly, our revenues are substantially 
dependent on the economic success of the petroleum marketing industry, and any factors that adversely affect that industry, 
such as disruption in the supply of petroleum or a decrease in the demand for conventional motor fuels due to conservation, 
technological  advancements  in  petroleum-fueled  motor  vehicles,  or  an  increase  in  the  use  of  alternative  fuel  vehicles,  or 
“green technology” could also have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, 
liquidity,  ability  to  pay  dividends  or  stock  price.  The  success  of  participants  in  the  petroleum  marketing  industry  depends 
upon the sale of refined petroleum products at margins in excess of fixed and variable expenses. The petroleum marketing 

12 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
industry is highly competitive and volatile. Petroleum products are commodities, the prices of which depend on numerous 
factors that affect supply and demand. The prices paid by our tenants and other petroleum marketers for products are affected 
by  global,  national  and  regional  factors.  A  large,  rapid  increase  in  wholesale  petroleum  prices  would  adversely  affect  the 
profitability  and  cash  flows  of  our  tenants  if  the  increased  cost  of  petroleum  products  could  not  be  passed  on  to  their 
customers or if automobile consumption of gasoline was to decline significantly. We cannot be certain how these factors will 
affect petroleum product prices or supply in the future, or how in particular they will affect our tenants. 

Property taxes on our properties may increase without notice. 

Each of the properties we own or lease is subject to real property taxes. The leases for certain of the properties that we 
lease from third parties obligate us to pay real property taxes with regard to those properties. The real property taxes on our 
properties and any other properties that we acquire or lease in the future may increase as property tax rates change and as 
those properties are assessed or reassessed by tax authorities. To the extent that our tenants are not responsible for property 
taxes pursuant to their contractual arrangements with us or are unable or unwilling to pay such increase in accordance with 
their leases, our net operating expenses may increase. 

We incur significant operating costs as a result of environmental laws and regulations which costs could significantly rise 
and reduce our profitability. 

We  are  subject  to  numerous  existing  federal,  state  and  local  laws  and  regulations,  including  matters  relating  to  the 
protection of the environment. Under certain environmental laws, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may 
be liable for contamination resulting from the presence or discharge of hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products 
at,  on,  or  under,  such  property,  and  may  be  required  to  investigate  and  clean-up  such  contamination.  Such  laws  typically 
impose liability and clean-up responsibility without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the presence 
of the contaminants, or the timing or cause of the contamination, and the liability under such laws has been interpreted to be 
joint  and  several  unless  the  harm  is  divisible  and  there  is  a  reasonable  basis  for  allocation  of  responsibility.  For  example, 
liability  may  arise  as  a  result  of  the  historical  use  of  a  property  or  from  the  migration  of  contamination  from  adjacent  or 
nearby properties. Any such contamination or liability may also reduce the value of the property. In addition, the owner or 
operator of a property may be subject to claims by third parties based on injury, damage and/or costs, including investigation 
and  clean-up  costs,  resulting  from  environmental  contamination  present  at  or  emanating  from  a  property.  The  properties 
owned  or  controlled  by  us  are  leased  primarily  as  retail  motor  fuel  and  convenience  store  properties,  and  therefore  may 
contain, or may have contained, USTs for the storage of petroleum products and other hazardous or toxic substances, which 
creates  a  potential  for  the  release  of  such  products  or  substances.  Some  of  our  properties  may  be  subject  to  regulations 
regarding  the  retirement  and  decommissioning  or  removal  of  long-lived  assets  including  buildings  containing  hazardous 
materials, USTs and other equipment. Some of the properties may be adjacent to or near properties that have contained or 
currently contain USTs used to store petroleum products or other hazardous or toxic substances. In addition, certain of the 
properties are on, adjacent to, or near properties upon which others have engaged or may in the future engage in activities that 
may  release  petroleum  products  or  other  hazardous  or  toxic  substances.  There  may  be  other  environmental  problems 
associated with our properties of which we are unaware. These problems may make it more difficult for us to re-let or sell our 
properties on favorable terms, or at all. 

For additional information with respect to pending environmental lawsuits and claims, and environmental remediation 
obligations and estimates see “Item 3. Legal Proceedings”, “Environmental Matters” in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion 
and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and  Results  of  Operations”  and  note  6  in  “Item  8.  Financial  Statements  and 
Supplementary Data — Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. 

We enter into leases and various other agreements which allocate responsibility for known and unknown environmental 
liabilities by establishing the percentage and method of allocating responsibility between the parties. Our tenants are directly 
responsible to pay for (i) remediation of environmental contamination they cause and compliance with various environmental 
laws and regulations as the operators of our properties, and (ii) environmental liabilities allocated to them under the terms of 
our leases and various other agreements. Generally, the liability for the retirement and decommissioning or removal of USTs 
and other equipment is the responsibility of our triple-net tenants. We are contingently liable for these obligations in the event 
that our tenants do not satisfy their responsibilities. A liability has not been accrued for obligations that are the responsibility 
of  our  tenants  (other  than  amounts  accrued  for  the  Marketing  Environmental  Liabilities  accrued  in  the  fourth  quarter  of 
2011).  However,  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  our  assessments  are  correct  or  that  our  tenants  who  have  paid  their 
obligations in the past will continue to do so. 

13 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We cannot provide any assurance that the programs under which we are reimbursed from state UST remediation funds 
will  continue  to  be  available  to  us.  Environmental  exposures  are  difficult  to  assess  and  estimate  for  numerous  reasons, 
including  the  extent  of  contamination,  alternative  treatment  methods  that  may  be  applied,  location  of  the  property  which 
subjects  it  to  differing  local  laws  and  regulations  and  their  interpretations,  as  well  as  the  time  it  takes  to  remediate 
contamination.  In  developing  our  liability  for  estimated  environmental  remediation  obligations  on  a  property  by  property 
basis, we consider among other things, enacted laws and regulations, assessments of contamination and surrounding geology, 
quality of information available, currently available technologies for treatment, alternative methods of remediation and prior 
experience. Environmental accruals are based on estimates which are subject to significant change, and are adjusted as the 
remediation treatment progresses, as circumstances change and as environmental contingencies become more clearly defined 
and  reasonably  estimable.  Adjustments  to  accrued  liabilities  for  environmental  remediation obligations will  be  reflected  in 
our financial statements as they become probable and a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. 

It is possible that our assumptions regarding the ultimate allocation methods and share of responsibility that we used to 
allocate environmental liabilities  may change, which may result in adjustments to the amounts recorded for environmental 
litigation accruals and environmental remediation liabilities. We will be required to accrue for environmental liabilities that 
we believe are allocable to others under various other agreements if we determine that it is probable that the counterparty will 
not meet its environmental obligations. We may ultimately be responsible to pay for environmental liabilities as the property 
owner if the counterparty fails to pay them. 

We  cannot  predict  what  environmental  legislation  or  regulations  may  be  enacted  in  the  future,  or  if  or  how  existing 
laws or regulations will be administered or interpreted with respect to products or activities to which they have not previously 
been applied. We cannot predict whether state UST fund programs will be administered and funded in the future in a manner 
that is consistent with past practices and if future environmental spending will continue to be eligible for reimbursement at 
historical recovery rates under these programs. Compliance with more stringent laws or regulations, as well as more vigorous 
enforcement policies of the regulatory agencies or stricter interpretation of existing laws which may develop in the future, 
could  have  an  adverse  effect  on  our  financial  position,  or  that  of  our  tenants,  and  could  require  substantial  additional 
expenditures for future remediation. 

As  a  result  of  the  factors  discussed  above,  or  others,  compliance  with  environmental  laws  and  regulations  could 
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends 
or stock price. 

We are defending pending lawsuits and claims and are subject to material losses. 

We  are  subject  to  various  lawsuits  and  claims,  including  litigation  related  to  environmental  matters,  such  as  those 
arising from leaking USTs and releases of motor fuel into the environment, and toxic tort claims. The ultimate resolution of 
certain matters cannot be predicted because considerable uncertainty exists both in terms of the probability of loss and the 
estimate of such loss. Our ultimate liabilities resulting from such lawsuits and claims, if any, could cause a material adverse 
effect  on  our  business,  financial  condition,  results  of  operations,  liquidity,  ability  to  pay  dividends  or  stock  price.  For 
additional information with respect to pending environmental lawsuits and claims and environmental remediation obligations 
and  estimates  see  “Item  3.  Legal  Proceedings”  and  “Environmental  Matters”  in  “Item  7.  Management’s  Discussion  and 
Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and  Results  of  Operations”  and  notes  3  and  6  in  “Item  8.  Financial  Statements  and 
Supplementary Data — Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. 

A significant portion of our properties are concentrated in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States, 
and adverse conditions in those regions, in particular, could negatively impact our operations. 

A significant portion of the properties we own and lease are located in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions of the 
United States. Because of the concentration of our properties in those regions, in the event of adverse economic conditions in 
those regions, we would likely experience higher risk of default on payment of rent to us than if our properties were more 
geographically  diversified.  Additionally,  the  rents  on  our  properties  may  be  subject  to  a  greater  risk  of  default  than  other 
properties  in  the  event  of  adverse  economic,  political,  or  business  developments  or  natural  hazards  that  may  affect  the 
Northeast  or  Mid-Atlantic  United  States  and  the  ability  of  our  lessees  to  make  rent  payments.  This  lack  of  geographical 
diversification  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  our  business,  financial  condition,  results  of  operations,  liquidity, 
ability to pay dividends or stock price. 

14 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We are in a competitive business. 

The real estate industry is highly competitive. Where we own properties, we compete for tenants with a large number 
of real estate property owners and other companies that sublet properties. Our principal means of competition are rents we are 
able  to  charge  in  relation  to  the  income  producing  potential  of  the  location.  In  addition,  we  expect  other  major  real  estate 
investors, some with much greater financial resources or more experienced personnel than we have, will compete with us for 
attractive  acquisition  opportunities.  These  competitors  include  petroleum  manufacturing,  distributing  and  marketing 
companies,  other  REITs,  public  and  private  investment  funds  and  other  individual  and  institutional  investors.  This 
competition  has  increased  prices  for  properties  we  seek  to  acquire  and  may  impair  our  ability  to  make  suitable  property 
acquisitions on favorable terms in the future. 

We are exposed to counterparty risk and there can be no assurances that we will effectively manage or mitigate this risk. 

We  regularly  interact  with  counterparties  in  various  industries.  The  types  of  counterparties  most  common  to  our 
transactions  and  agreements  include,  but  are  not  limited  to,  landlords,  tenants,  vendors  and  lenders.  Our  most  significant 
counterparties include, but  are  not  limited  to  the  members  of  the  Bank  Syndicate  related  to our  Credit  Agreement  and  the 
lender that is the counterparty to the Prudential Loan Agreement and one of our tenants from whom we derive a significant 
amount of revenue. The default, insolvency or other inability of a significant counterparty to perform its obligations under an 
agreement  or  transaction,  including,  without  limitation,  as  a  result  of  the  rejection  of  an  agreement  or  transaction  in 
bankruptcy proceedings, could have a material adverse effect on us. One of our tenants, CPD NY Energy Corp., a subsidiary 
of  Chestnut  Petroleum  Dist.  (together  with  its  affiliates,  “CPD”),  represents  18%  and  12%  of  our  revenues  from  rental 
properties for 2012 and 2011, respectively, and 26% and 12% of our annualized rental revenues from rental properties for 
2012 and 2011, respectively. It is possible that as a result of either acquiring additional properties from CPD or as a result of 
disposing some of our existing properties, CPD could account for a greater percentage of our revenues from rental properties. 
We may also undertake additional transactions with our other existing tenants which would further concentrate our sources of 
revenues.  Therefore,  the  failure  of  a  major  tenant  is  likely  to  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  our  business,  financial 
condition, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends or stock price. 

We are subject to losses that may not be covered by insurance. 

We, and certain of our tenants, carry insurance against certain risks and in such amounts as we believe are customary 
for  businesses  of  our  kind.  However,  as  the  costs  and  availability  of  insurance  change,  we  may  decide  not  to  be  covered 
against certain losses (such as certain environmental liabilities, earthquakes, hurricanes, floods and civil disorder) where, in 
the  judgment  of  management,  the  insurance  is  not  warranted  due  to  cost  or  availability  of  coverage  or  the  remoteness  of 
perceived risk. There is no assurance that these insurance coverages are or will be sufficient to cover actual losses incurred. 
The  destruction  of,  or  significant  damage  to,  or  significant  liabilities  arising  out  of  conditions  at,  our  properties  due  to  an 
uninsured cause would result in an economic loss and could result in us losing both our investment in, and anticipated profits 
from, such properties. When a loss is insured, the coverage may be insufficient in amount or duration, or a lessee’s customers 
may be lost, such that the lessee cannot resume its business after the loss at prior levels or at all, resulting in reduced rent or a 
default  under  its  lease.  Any  such  loss  relating  to  a  large number  of properties  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect on  our 
business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends or stock price. 

Failure to qualify as a REIT under the federal income tax laws would have adverse consequences to our shareholders. 

We elected to be treated as a REIT under the federal income tax laws beginning January 1, 2001. We cannot; however, 
guarantee  that  we  will  continue  to  qualify  in  the  future  as  a  REIT.  We  cannot  give  any  assurance  that  new  legislation, 
regulations,  administrative  interpretations  or  court  decisions  will  not  significantly  change  the  requirements  relating  to  our 
qualification.  If  we  fail  to  qualify  as  a  REIT,  we  would  not  be  allowed  a  deduction  for  distributions  to  shareholders  in 
computing our taxable income and will again be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates, we could be subject 
to the federal alternative minimum tax, we could be required to pay significant income taxes and we would have less money 
available for our operations and distributions to shareholders. This would likely have a significant adverse effect on the value 
of our securities. We could also be precluded from treatment as a REIT for four taxable years following the year in which we 
lost the qualification, and all distributions to shareholders would be taxable as regular corporate dividends to the extent of our 
current and accumulated earnings and profits. Loss of our REIT status could have a material adverse effect on our business, 
financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends or stock price. 

15 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We are exposed to interest rate risk and there can be no assurances that we will manage or mitigate this risk effectively. 

We  are  exposed  to  interest  rate  risk,  primarily  as  a  result  of  our  Credit  Agreement.  Borrowings  under  our  Credit 
Agreement bear interest at a floating rate. Accordingly, an increase in interest rates will increase the amount of interest we 
must  pay  under  our  Credit  Agreement.  Our  interest  rate  risk  may  materially  change  in  the  future  if  we  increase  our 
borrowings under the Credit Agreement, or amend our Credit Agreement or Prudential Loan Agreement, seek other sources 
of debt or equity capital or refinance our outstanding debt. A significant increase in interest rates could also make it more 
difficult  to  find  alternative  financing  on  desirable  terms.  (For  additional  information  with  respect  to  interest  rate  risk,  see 
“Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks,” as filed with this Annual Report on Form 10-K.) 

Future issuances of equity securities could dilute the interest of holders of our equity securities. 

Our future growth will depend upon our ability to raise additional capital. If we were to raise additional capital through 
the issuance of equity securities, we could dilute the interest of holders of our common stock. The interest of our common 
stockholders could also be diluted by the issuance of shares of common stock pursuant to stock incentive plans. Accordingly, 
the  Board  of  Directors  may  authorize  the  issuance  of  equity  securities  that  could  dilute,  or  otherwise  adversely  affect,  the 
interest of holders of our common stock. 

We may change our dividend policy and the dividends we pay may be subject to significant volatility. 

The  decision  to  declare  and  pay  dividends  on  our  common  stock  in  the  future,  as  well  as  the  timing,  amount  and 
composition of any such future dividends, will be at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on such 
factors  as  the  Board  of  Directors  deems  relevant.  In  addition,  our  Credit  Agreement  and  our  Prudential  Loan  Agreement 
prohibit  the  payments  of  dividends  during  certain  events  of  default.  During  2011  and  2012,  the  Board  of  Directors 
significantly reduced, eliminated and then reinstated at a significantly reduced rate, our quarterly dividend. (See the table of 
cash dividends declared in 2011 and 2012 in “Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters 
and  Issuer  Purchase  of  Equity  Securities”  for  additional  information.)  No  assurance  can  be  given  that  our  financial 
performance in the future will permit our payment of any dividends or that the amount of dividends we pay, if any, will not 
fluctuate significantly. 

Under the Maryland General Corporation Law, our ability to pay dividends would be restricted if, after payment 
of  the  dividend,  (1) we  would  not  be  able  to  pay  indebtedness  as  it  becomes  due  in  the  usual  course  of  business  or 
(2) our total assets would be less than the sum of our liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if we were to be 
dissolved,  to  satisfy  the  rights  of  any  shareholders  with  liquidation  preferences.  There  currently  are  no  shareholders 
with liquidation preferences. 

To qualify for taxation as a REIT, we must, among other requirements such as those related to the composition of our 
assets and gross income, distribute annually to our stockholders at least 90% of our taxable income, including taxable income 
that  is  accrued  by  us  without  a  corresponding  receipt  of  cash.  We  cannot  provide  any  assurance  that  our  cash  flows  will 
permit us to continue paying cash dividends. The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) has allowed the use of a procedure, as a 
result of which we could satisfy the REIT income distribution requirement by making a distribution on our common stock 
comprised  of  (i) shares  of  our  common  stock  having  a  value  of  up  to  80%  of  the  total  distribution  and  (ii) cash  in  the 
remaining amount of the total distribution, in lieu of paying the distribution entirely in cash. In order to use this procedure, 
we  would  need  to  seek  and  obtain  a  private  letter  ruling  of  the  IRS  to  the  effect  that  the  procedure  is  applicable  to  our 
situation. Without obtaining such a private letter ruling, we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to satisfy our 
REIT income distribution requirement by making distributions payable in whole or in part in shares of our common stock. It 
is also possible that instead of distributing 100% of our taxable income on an annual basis, we may decide to retain a portion 
of our  taxable income  and  to  pay  taxes on such  amounts as  permitted  by  the  IRS. In  the  event  that we  pay  a  portion of a 
dividend in shares of our common stock, taxable U.S. shareholders would be required to pay tax on the entire amount of the 
dividend, including the portion paid in shares of common stock, in which case such shareholders might have to pay the tax 
using cash from other sources. If a U.S. shareholder sells the stock it receives as a dividend in order to pay this tax, the sales 
proceeds may be less than the amount included in income with respect to the dividend, depending on the market price of our 
common stock at the time of the sale. Furthermore, with respect to non-U.S. shareholders, we may be required to withhold 
U.S. tax with respect to such dividend, including in respect of all or a portion of such dividend that is payable in stock. In 
addition,  if  a  significant  number  of  our  shareholders  sell  shares  of  our  common  stock  in  order  to  pay  taxes  owed  on 
dividends, such sales would put downward pressure on the market price of our common stock.

As  a  result  of  the  factors  described  herein  and  elsewhere  in  this  Annual  Report  on  Form  10-K  and  those  that  are 
described from time to time in our other filings with the SEC., we may experience material fluctuations in future operating 
results on a quarterly or annual basis, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, revenues, 
operating expenses, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends or our stock price. 

Changes in market conditions could adversely affect the market price of our publicly traded common stock. 

As  with  other  publicly  traded  securities,  the  market  price  of  our  publicly  traded  common  stock  depends  on  various 
market conditions, which may change from time-to-time. Among the market conditions that may affect the market price of 
our publicly traded common stock are the following: 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

our financial condition and performance and that of our significant tenants, 

the market’s perception of our growth potential and potential future earnings,  

the reputation of REITs generally and the reputation of REITs with portfolios similar to us,  

the  attractiveness  of  the  securities  of  REITs  in  comparison  to  securities  issued  by  other  entities  (including 
securities issued by other real estate companies),  

an increase in market interest rates, which may lead prospective investors to demand a higher distribution rate in 
relation to the price paid for publicly traded securities,  

the extent of institutional investor interest in us, and  

general economic and financial market conditions.  

In order to preserve our REIT status, our charter limits the number of shares a person may own, which may discourage a 
takeover that could result in a premium price for our common stock or otherwise benefit our stockholders. 

Our  charter,  with  certain  exceptions,  authorizes  our  Board  of  Directors  to  take  such  actions  as  are  necessary  and 
desirable  to  preserve  our  qualification  as  a  REIT  for  federal  income  tax  purposes.  Unless  exempted  by  our  Board  of 
Directors,  no person  may  actually  or  constructively own more  than 5%  (by value  or number of  shares, whichever  is  more 
restrictive) of the outstanding shares of our common stock or the outstanding shares of any class or series of our preferred 
stock, which may inhibit large investors from desiring to purchase our stock. This restriction may have the effect of delaying, 
deferring, or preventing a change in control, including an extraordinary transaction (such as a merger, tender offer, or sale of 
all or substantially all of our assets) that might provide a premium price for our common stock or otherwise be in the best 
interest of our stockholders. 

Maryland law may discourage a third-party from acquiring us. 

We  are  subject  to  the  provisions  of  Maryland  Business  Combination  Act  (the  “Business  Combination  Act”)  which 
prohibits  transactions  between  a  Maryland  corporation  and  an  interested  stockholder  or  an  affiliate  of  an  interested 
stockholder  for  5  (five)  years  after  the  most  recent  date  on  which  the  interested  stockholder  becomes  an  interested 
stockholder. Generally, pursuant to the Business Combination Act, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with 
affiliates  and  associates,  beneficially  owns,  directly  or  indirectly,  10%  or  more  of  a  Maryland  corporation’s  voting  stock. 
These provisions could have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of our company or reducing 
the price that certain investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our capital stock. Additionally, the Maryland 
Control Share Acquisition Act may deny voting rights to shares involved in an acquisition of one-tenth or more of the voting 
stock  of  a  Maryland  corporation.  In  our  charter  and  bylaws,  we  have  elected  not  to  have  the  Maryland  Control  Share 
Acquisition  Act  apply  to  any  acquisition  by  any  person  of  shares  of  stock  of  our  Company.  However,  in  the  case  of  the 
control  share  acquisition  statute,  our  Board  of  Directors  may  opt  to  make  this  statute  applicable  to  us  at  any  time  by 
amending our bylaws, and may do so on a retroactive basis. Finally, the “unsolicited takeovers” provisions of the Maryland 
General  Corporation  Law permit  our  Board  of Directors, without  stockholder  approval  and regardless  of what  is  currently 
provided in our charter or bylaws, to implement certain provisions that may have the effect of inhibiting a third-party from 
making an acquisition proposal for our Company or of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our Company 
under  circumstances  that  otherwise  could  provide  the  holders  of  our  common  stocks  with  the  opportunity  to  realize  a 
premium over the then current market price or that stockholders may otherwise believe is in their best interests. 

17 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Inflation may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. 

Although  inflation  has  not  materially  impacted  our  results  of  operations  in  the  recent  past,  increased  inflation  could 
have a more pronounced negative impact on any variable rate debt we incur in the future and on our results of operations. 
During times when inflation is greater than increases in rent, as provided for in our leases, rent increases may not keep up 
with the rate of inflation. Likewise, even though our triple-net leases reduce our exposure to rising property expenses due to 
inflation,  substantial  inflationary  pressures  and  increased  costs  may  have  an  adverse  impact  on  our  tenants  if  increases  in 
their operating expenses exceed increases in revenue, which may adversely affect the tenants’ ability to pay rent. 

The loss of certain members of our management team could adversely affect our business. 

We depend upon the skills and experience of our executive officers. Loss of the services of any of them could have a 
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends or stock 
price. Except for the employment agreement with our President and Chief Executive Officer, David B. Driscoll, we do not 
have employment agreements with any of our executives. 

Amendments  to  the  Accounting  Standards  Codification  made  by  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  (the 
“FASB”) or changes in accounting standards issued by other standard-setting bodies may adversely affect our reported 
revenues, profitability or financial position. 

Our  financial  statements  are  subject  to  the  application  of  GAAP  in  accordance  with  the  Accounting  Standards 
Codification, which is periodically amended by the FASB. The application of GAAP is also subject to varying interpretations 
over  time.  Accordingly,  we  are  required  to  adopt  amendments  to  the  Accounting  Standards  Codification  or  comply  with 
revised interpretations that are issued from time-to-time by recognized authoritative bodies, including the FASB and the SEC. 
Those changes could adversely affect our reported revenues, profitability or financial position. 

Terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war may affect the market on which our common stock trades, the markets 
in which we operate, our operations and our results of operations. 

Terrorist  attacks  or  other  acts  of  violence  or  war  could  affect  our  business  or  the  businesses  of  our  tenants.  The 
consequences  of  armed  conflicts  are  unpredictable,  and  we  may  not  be  able  to  foresee  events  that  could  have  a  material 
adverse effect on us. More generally, any of these events could cause consumer confidence and spending to decrease or result 
in increased volatility in the United States and worldwide financial markets and economy. Terrorist attacks also could be a 
factor resulting in, or a continuation of, an economic recession in the United States or abroad. Any of these occurrences could 
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends or 
stock price. 

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments 

None. 

Item 2. Properties 

Nearly all of our properties are leased or sublet to petroleum distributors and retailers engaged in the sale of gasoline 
and  other  motor  fuel  products,  convenience  store  products  and  automotive  repair  services  who  are  responsible  for  the 
operations  conducted  at  these  properties  and  for  the  payment  of  taxes,  maintenance,  repair,  insurance  and  other  operating 
expenses relating to our properties. In those instances where we determine that the best use for a property is no longer as a 
retail motor fuel outlet, we will seek an alternative tenant or buyer for the property. As of December 31, 2012, we lease or 
sublet approximately 20 of our properties for uses such as quick serve restaurants, automobile sales and other retail purposes, 
excluding approximately 40 properties previously subject to the Master Lease with Marketing which are currently held for 
sale and which have temporary occupancies.

The  following  table  summarizes  the  geographic  distribution  of  our  properties  at  December 31,  2012.  The  table  also 
identifies the number and location of properties we lease from third-parties. In addition, we lease 5,800 square feet of office 
space  at  125  Jericho  Turnpike,  Jericho,  New  York,  which  is  used  for  our  corporate  headquarters,  which  we  believe  will 
remain suitable and adequate for such purposes for the immediate future.

We  have  rights-of-first  refusal  to  purchase  or  lease  90  of  the  properties  we  lease  from  third-parties.  Approximately 

71% of the properties we lease from third-parties are subject to automatic renewal or extension options. 

For the year ended December 31, 2012 revenues from rental properties in continuing and discontinued operations included 
$104.8  million  of  rent  contractually  due  or  received  with  respect  to  1,128  average  rental  properties  held  during  the  year  or  an 
average annual rent contractually due or received of approximately $93,000 per rental property. For the year ended December 31, 
2011 revenues from rental properties in continuing and discontinued operations included $110.4 million of rent contractually due or 
received with respect to 1,154 average rental properties held during the year or an average annual rent contractually due or received 
of approximately $96,000 per rental property. The net revenue we are realizing from the properties that were previously subject to 
the Master Lease is less than the contractual rent we received from Marketing under the Master Lease.

(a)  Represents the monthly contractual rent due from tenants under existing leases as of December 31, 2012 multiplied by 

12. This amount excludes real estate tax reimbursements which are billed to the tenant when paid. 

(b)  Rental  units  include  properties  subdivided  into  multiple  premises  with  separate  tenants.  Rental  units  also  include 
individual  properties  comprising  a  single  “premises”  as  such  term  is  defined  under  a  unitary  master  lease  related  to 
such  properties.  With  respect  to  a  unitary  master  lease  that  includes  properties  that  we  lease  from  third-parties,  the 
expiration dates for rental units refers to the dates that the leases with the third-parties expire and upon which date our 
tenant must vacate those properties, not the expiration date of the unitary master lease itself. 

In the opinion of our management, our owned and leased properties are adequately covered by casualty and liability 
insurance. In addition, we generally require our tenants to provide insurance for all properties they lease from us, including 
casualty, liability, pollution legal liability, fire and extended coverage in amounts and on other terms satisfactory to us. We 
are  evaluating  potential  capital  expenditures  and  funding  sources  for  properties  that  were  previously  subject  to  the  Master 
Lease and which are not currently subject to long-term leases. We have no current plans to make material improvements to 
any of our properties other than the properties previously subject to the Master Lease with Marketing. However, our tenants 
frequently  make  improvements  to  the  properties  leased  from  us  at  their  expense.  In  certain  of  our  new  leases,  we  have 
committed to co-invest as much as $14.1 million in capital improvements in our properties. We are not aware of any material 
liens or encumbrances on any of our properties. 

During 2012, we sold 54 properties for $15.4 million in the aggregate and as of the date of this filing, in 2013, we have 
sold an additional 42 properties for $17.5 million in the aggregate, including one terminal. We are continuing our efforts to 
sell  approximately  60  properties  that  have  previously  had  their  underground  storage  tanks  removed  and  eight  petroleum 
distribution terminals although alternatively we may seek to re-let some of these properties and terminals. With respect to the 
terminals we own, it may be costly and time consuming for us or potential tenants or buyers to upgrade the terminal facilities 
to competitive standards within the industry, obtain or renew operating permits and attract customers to store their petroleum 
products at these locations. With respect to retail properties that are vacant or have had underground storage tanks and related 
equipment removed, it may be more difficult or costly to re-let or sell such properties as gas stations because of capital costs 
or possible zoning or permitting rights that are required and that may have lapsed during the period since gasoline was last 
sold  at  the  property.  Conversely,  it  may  be  easier  to  re-let  or  sell  properties  where  underground  storage  tanks  and  related 
equipment have been removed if the property will not be used as a retail motor fuel outlet or if environmental contamination 
has  been  or  is  being  remediated.  In  accordance  with  Generally  Accepted  Accounting  Principles,  substantially  all  of  these 
properties have met the criteria to be classified as held for sale. 

Since the Master Lease was structured as a “triple-net” lease, Marketing (as the lessee) had the responsibility for the 
maintenance, repair, real estate taxes, insurance and general upkeep of these properties (“Property Expenditures”) during the 
term of the Master Lease. Marketing failed to meet many of its obligations to undertake the Property Expenditures related to 
our properties. In addition to having to incur the costs of the Property Expenditures, Marketing did not pay any additional 
Property Expenditures for the period after termination of the Master Lease. We expect to incur significant costs over a period 
of  years  to  upgrade  the  properties  to  competitive  standards  within  the  industry  for  required  renovations,  replacement  of 
underground  storage  tanks  and  related  equipment  or  environmental  remediation,  zoning  and  permitting  (“Capital 

20 

 
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Improvements”). We anticipate incurring significant Property Expenditures and Capital Improvement costs. It is also possible 
that our estimates for environmental remediation and tank removal expenses relating to these properties will be higher than 
the  Marketing  Environmental  Liabilities  that  we  have  accrued  and  that  issues  involved  in  re-letting  or  repositioning  these 
properties may require significant management attention that would otherwise be devoted to our ongoing business. 

Item 3. Legal Proceedings 

We are engaged in a number of legal proceedings, many of which we consider to be routine and incidental to our business. 
The  following  is  a  description  of  material  legal  proceedings,  including  those  involving  private  parties  and  governmental 
authorities  under  federal,  state  and  local  laws  regulating  the  discharge  of  materials  into  the  environment.  We  are  vigorously 
defending all of the legal proceedings involving us, including each of the legal proceedings matters listed below. 

In  1991,  the  State  of  New  York  commenced  an  action  in  the  Supreme  Court,  Albany  County,  against  Kingston  Oil 
Supply  Corp.  (our  former  heating  oil  subsidiary),  Charles  Baccaro  and  Amos  Post,  Inc.  The  action  seeks  recovery  for 
reimbursement  of  investigation  and  remediating  costs  incurred  by  the  New  York  Environmental  Protection  and  Spill 
Compensation Fund, together with interest and statutory penalties under the New York Navigation Law. We answered the 
complaint on behalf of Kingston Oil Supply Corp. and Amos Post Inc. Thereafter, from approximately 1993 to November 
2011,  the  case  remained  dormant  except  for  a  brief  period  in 2002  when  the  State  of  New  York  indicated  an  intention  to 
prosecute  the  lawsuit.  In  November  2011,  the  State  of  New  York  recommenced  efforts  to  pursue  its  claims  against  us  for 
reimbursement of costs, interest and statutory penalties under the Navigation Law. We are asserting defenses to liability and 
to damages. 

In September 2004, the State of New York commenced an action against us, United Gas Corp., Costa Gas Station, Inc., 
The  Ingraham  Bedell  Corporation,  Exxon  Mobil  Corporation,  Shell  Oil  Company,  Shell  Oil  Products  Company,  Motiva 
Enterprises, LLC, and related parties, in New York Supreme Court in Albany County seeking recovery for reimbursement of 
investigation  and  remediation  costs  claimed  to  have  been  incurred  by  the  New  York  Environmental  Protection  and  Spill 
Compensation  Fund  relating  to  contamination  it  alleges  emanated  from  various  retail  motor  fuel  properties  located  in  the 
same  vicinity  in  Uniondale,  N.Y.,  including  a  site  formerly  owned  by  us  and  at  which  a  petroleum  release  and  cleanup 
occurred. The complaint also seeks future costs for remediation, as well as interest and penalties. We have served an answer 
to the complaint denying responsibility. Discovery in this case is ongoing. 

In October 2007, we received a demand from the State of New York to pay costs allegedly arising from investigation 
and remediation of petroleum spills that occurred at a property formerly owned by us and taken by eminent domain by the 
State of New York in 1991. We responded to the State of New York’s demand and denied responsibility for reimbursement 
of such costs. In August 2010, the State of New York’s commenced a lawsuit in New York Supreme Court, Albany County 
against  us,  Bryant  Taconic  Corp.  and  related  parties  seeking  damages  under  the  New  York  Navigation  Law.  We  have 
interposed an answer asserting numerous affirmative defenses. Discovery in this case is ongoing. 

In September 2008, we received a directive and notice of violation from the New Jersey Department of Environmental 
Protection (“NJDEP”) calling for a remedial investigation and cleanup, to be conducted by us and Gary and Barbara Galliker, 
individually and trading as Millstone Auto Service, Auto Tech, and other named parties, of petroleum-related contamination 
found at a retail motor fuel property located in Millstone Township, New Jersey. We did not own or lease this property, but 
did supply gas to the operator of this property in 1985 and 1986. We responded to the NJDEP, denying liability. In November 
2009,  the  NJDEP  issued  an  Administrative  Order  and  Notice  of  Civil  Administrative  Penalty  Assessment  (the  “Order  and 
Assessment”) to us, Marketing and Gary and Barbara Galliker, individually and trading as Millstone Auto Service. We have 
filed a request for a hearing to contest the allegations of the Order and Assessment, but the date of the hearing has not yet 
been scheduled. 

In  November  2009,  an  action  was  commenced  by  the  State  of  New  York  in  the  Supreme  Court,  Albany  County, 
seeking the recovery of costs incurred in remediating alleged petroleum contamination down gradient of a gasoline station 
formerly  owned  by  us,  and  gasoline  stations  that  were  allegedly  owned  or  operated  by  other  named  defendants,  including 
M&A Realty, Inc., Gas Land Petroleum, Inc., and Mid-Valley Oil Company. We answered the complaint, denying liability 
and asserting affirmative defenses and cross claims against co-defendants. We have also tendered the matter to M&A Realty 
Inc. for defense and indemnification as relates to discharges of petroleum that were reported on or after July 1994 at the site 
which is the subject of allegations against us. This site was leased by us to M&A Realty Inc. in 1994 and sold to M&A Realty 
Inc. in 2002. M&A Realty Inc. demanded defense and indemnity from us for contamination at this site as of 1994. The State 
of New York has also commenced a separate but related action in the Supreme Court, Albany County, against us and M&A 
Realty,  Inc.  seeking  recovery  of  costs  for  clean-up  of  petroleum  contamination  at  the  site  of  the  gas  station  which  is  the 
subject of allegations against us and M&A Realty, Inc. in the first action. We answered the complaint, denying liability and 

21 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
asserting affirmative defenses and cross claims against M&A Realty, Inc. We also tendered the matter to M&A Realty, Inc. 
for indemnity on the same basis as in the first action, and M&A Realty, Inc. likewise has demanded defense and indemnity 
from us on the same basis as it put forth in the first action. Discovery in these cases is ongoing. 

MTBE Litigation 

During 2010, we were defending 53 lawsuits brought on behalf of private and public water providers and governmental 
agencies located in Connecticut, Florida, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Vermont, 
Virginia, and West Virginia. A majority of these cases were among the more than one hundred cases that were transferred 
from  various  state  and  federal  courts  throughout  the  country  and  consolidated  in  the  United  States  District  Court  for  the 
Southern District of New York for coordinated Multi-District Litigation (“MDL”) proceedings. The balance of these cases 
against  us  were  pending  in  the  Supreme  Court  of  New  York,  Nassau  County.  All  of  the  cases  against  us  alleged  (and,  as 
described below with respect to one remaining case, continue to allege) various theories of liability due to contamination of 
groundwater with methyl tertiary butyl ether (a fuel derived from methanol, commonly referred to as “MTBE”) as the basis 
for claims seeking compensatory and punitive damages. The cases named us as a defendant along with approximately fifty 
petroleum  refiners,  manufacturers,  distributors  and  retailers  of  MTBE,  or  gasoline  containing  MTBE,  including  Irving  Oil 
Corporation,  Mobil  Oil  Corporation,  Sunoco,  Inc.,  Texaco,  Inc.,  Tosco  Corporation,  Unocal  Corporation,  Valero  Energy 
Corporation,  Marathon  Oil  Company,  Shell  Oil  Company,  Giant  Yorktown,  Inc.,  BP  Amoco  Chemical  Company,  Inc., 
Atlantic Richfield Company, Coastal Oil New England, Inc., Chevron Texaco Corporation, Amerada Hess Corp., Chevron 
U.S.A.,  Inc.,  CITGO  Petroleum  Corporation,  ConocoPhillips  Company,  Exxon  Mobil  Corporation,  Getty  Petroleum 
Marketing  Inc.,  and  Gulf  Oil  Limited  Partnership.  During  2010,  we  reached  agreements  to  settle  two  plaintiff  classes 
covering  52  of  the  53  pending  cases.  A  settlement  payment  of  $1.3  million  was  made  during  the  third  quarter  of  2010 
covering  27  cases  and  a  settlement  payment  of  $0.5  million  was  made  during  the  first  quarter  of  2011  covering  25  cases. 
Presently we remain a defendant in one MTBE case involving multiple locations throughout the State of New Jersey brought 
by various governmental agencies of the State of New Jersey, including the NJDEP. This case is still in discovery stages. 

We  have  provided  a  litigation  reserve  as  to  this  remaining  MDL  case;  however,  there  remains  uncertainty  as  to  the 
accuracy  of  the  allegations  in  this  MTBE  case  as  they  relate  to  us,  our  defenses  to  the  claims,  and  the  aggregate  possible 
amount of damages for which we might be held liable. 

Matters related to our Newark, New Jersey Terminal and the Lower Passaic River 

In  September  2003,  we  received  a  directive  (the  “Directive”)  issued  by  the  NJDEP  under  the  New  Jersey  Spill 
Compensation and Control Act. The Directive indicated that we are one of approximately 66 potentially responsible parties 
for alleged Natural Resource Damages (“NRD” or “NRDs”) resulting from the discharges of hazardous substances along the 
lower  Passaic  River  (the  “Lower  Passaic  River”).  Other  named  recipients  of  the  Directive  are  360  North  Pastoria 
Environmental  Corporation,  Amerada  Hess  Corporation,  American  Modern  Metals  Corporation,  Apollo  Development  and 
Land Corporation, Ashland Inc., AT&T Corporation, Atlantic Richfield Assessment Company, Bayer Corporation, Benjamin 
Moore &  Company,  Bristol  Myers-Squibb,  Chemical  Land  Holdings,  Inc.,  Chevron  Texaco  Corporation,  Diamond  Alkali 
Company,  Diamond  Shamrock  Chemicals  Company,  Diamond  Shamrock  Corporation,  Dilorenzo  Properties  Company, 
Dilorenzo  Properties,  L.P.,  Drum  Service  of  Newark,  Inc.,  E.I.  Dupont  De  Nemours  and  Company,  Eastman  Kodak 
Company,  Elf  Sanofi,  S.A.,  Fine  Organics  Corporation,  Franklin-Burlington  Plastics,  Inc.,  Franklin  Plastics  Corporation, 
Freedom Chemical Company, H.D. Acquisition Corporation, Hexcel Corporation, Hilton Davis Chemical Company, Kearny 
Industrial  Associates,  L.P.,  Lucent  Technologies,  Inc.,  Marshall  Clark  Manufacturing  Corporation,  Maxus  Energy 
Corporation, Monsanto Company, Motor Carrier Services Corporation, Nappwood Land Corporation, Noveon Hilton Davis 
Inc., Occidental Chemical Corporation, Occidental Electro-Chemicals Corporation, Occidental Petroleum Corporation, Oxy-
Diamond  Alkali  Corporation,  Pitt-Consol  Chemical  Company,  Plastics  Manufacturing  Corporation,  PMC  Global  Inc., 
Propane Power Corporation, Public Service Electric & Gas Company, Public Service Enterprise Group, Inc., Purdue Pharma 
Technologies, Inc., RTC Properties, Inc., S&A Realty Corporation, Safety-Kleen Envirosystems Company, Sanofi S.A., SDI 
Divestiture  Corporation,  Sherwin  Williams  Company,  SmithKline  Beecham  Corporation,  Spartech  Corporation,  Stanley 
Works  Corporation,  Sterling  Winthrop,  Inc.,  STWB  Inc.,  Texaco  Inc.,  Texaco  Refining  and  Marketing  Inc.,  Thomasset 
Colors, Inc., Tierra Solution, Incorporated, Tierra Solutions, Inc., and Wilson Five Corporation. 

The  Directive  provided,  among  other  things,  that  the  recipients  thereof  must  conduct  an  assessment  of  the  natural 
resources that have been injured by the discharges into the Lower Passaic River and must implement interim compensatory 
restoration for the injured natural resources. NJDEP alleges that our liability arises from alleged discharges originating from 
our Newark, New Jersey Terminal site. We responded to the Directive by asserting that we were not liable. There has been no 
material activity and/or communications by NJDEP with respect to the Directive since early after its issuance.

Effective  May  2007,  the  United  States  Environmental  Protection  Agency  (“EPA”)  entered  into  an  Administrative 
Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent (“AOC”) with over 70 parties comprising a Cooperating Parties Group (“CPG”) 
(many  of  whom  are  also  named  in  the  Directive)  who  have  collectively  agreed  to  perform  a  Remedial  Investigation  and 
Feasibility  Study  (“RI/FS”)  for  the  Lower  Passaic  River.  We  are  a  party  to  the  AOC  and  are  a  member  of  the  CPG.  The 
RI/FS is intended to address the investigation and evaluation of alternative remedial actions with respect to alleged damages 
to the Lower Passaic River, and is scheduled to be completed in or about 2015. In connection with the RI/FS work, the CPG 
has  sampled  river  sediments  at  river  mile  10.9.  Subsequently,  all  members  of  the  CPG  except  Occidental  Chemical 
Corporation  (“Occidental”)  entered  into  an  Administrative  Settlement  Agreement  and  Order  on  Consent  (“10.9  AOC”) 
effective  June  18,  2012  to  perform  certain  remediation  activities,  including  removal  and  capping  of  sediments  at  the  river 
mile 10.9 area and certain testing. Similar to the RI/FS work, the CPG entered into an interim allocation for the costs of the 
river mile 10.9 work. EPA issued a Unilateral Order to Occidental directing Occidental to participate and contribute to the 
cost of the river mile 10.9 work and discussions regarding Occidental’s participation in the river mile 10.9 work are ongoing. 
Concurrently, the EPA is preparing a proposed Focused Feasibility Study (“FFS”) that the EPA claims will address sediment 
issues  in  the  lower  eight  miles  of  the  Lower  Passaic  River.  Based  on  the  results  of  such  sampling,  the  EPA  may  require 
interim remediation activities at river mile  10.9 prior to the completion of the RI/FS, although the scope and allocation of 
costs for such activities is not known at this time. The RI/FS and 10.9 AOC do not resolve liability issues for remedial work 
or  restoration  of,  or  compensation  for,  natural  resource  damages  to  the  Lower  Passaic  River,  which  are  not  known  at  this 
time. As to such matters, separate proceedings or activities are currently ongoing. 

In  a  related  action,  in  December  2005,  the  State  of  New  Jersey  through  various  state  agencies  brought  suit  in  the 
Superior  Court  of  New  Jersey,  Law  Division,  against  certain  parties  to  the  Directive,  Occidental  Chemical  Corporation, 
Tierra Solutions, Inc., Maxus Energy Corporation and related entities which the State of New Jersey alleges are responsible 
for various categories of past and future damages resulting from discharges of hazardous substances to the Passaic River by a 
manufacturing  facility  located  on  Lister  Avenue  in  Newark,  NJ.  In  February  2009,  certain  of  these  defendants  filed  third-
party  complaints  against  approximately  300  additional  parties,  including  us  and  other  members  of  the  CPG,  seeking 
contribution for such parties’ proportionate share of response costs, cleanup and removal costs, and other damages, based on 
their relative contribution to pollution of the Passaic River and adjacent bodies of water. We have answered the complaint, 
denying responsibility for any discharges of hazardous substances released into the Passaic River. The litigation is still in a 
pre-trial stage with a significant amount of discovery remaining, particularly as to third-parties. 

We  have  made  a  demand  upon  Chevron/Texaco  for  indemnity  under  certain  agreements  between  us  and 
Chevron/Texaco  that  allocate  environmental  liabilities  for  the  Newark  Terminal  site  between  the  parties.  In  response, 
Chevron/Texaco has asserted that the proceedings and claims are still not yet developed enough to determine the extent to 
which indemnities apply. We are engaged in discussions with Chevron/Texaco regarding our demands for indemnification, 
and, to facilitate said discussions, in October 2009 entered into a Tolling/Standstill Agreement which tolls all claims by and 
among Chevron/Texaco and us that relate to the various Lower Passaic River matters from May 8, 2007, until either party 
terminates such Tolling/Standstill Agreement. 

Our ultimate liability, if any, in the pending and possible future proceedings pertaining to the Lower Passaic River is 

uncertain and subject to numerous contingencies which cannot be predicted and the outcome of which are not yet known.

effect  of  the  $87.0  million  acquisition  of  66  Shell-branded  gasoline  station  and  convenience  store  properties  in  a  sale/leaseback  transaction  with

Includes (from the date of the acquisition) the effect of the $49.0 million acquisition of the real estate assets and improvements of 36 convenience

Includes the effect of a $13.5 million accounts receivable reserve and the effect of a $6.3 million impairment charge, which are included in earnings 
from continuing operations primarily related to certain properties previously leased to Marketing under the Master Lease. (For additional information 
regarding Marketing and the Master Lease, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation –
General – Marketing and the Master Lease”.) 

Includes the effect of a $19.3 million non-cash deferred rent receivable reserve, the effect of a $7.6 million accounts receivable reserve, and the effect 
of a $15.9 million impairment charge, which are included in earnings from continuing operations primarily related to certain properties previously 
leased  to  Marketing  under  the  Master  Lease.  (For  additional  information  regarding  Marketing  and  the  Master  Lease,  see  “Item  7.  Management’s 
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations –General – Marketing and the Master Lease”.) 

In addition to measurements defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), our management also 
focuses on funds from operations (“FFO”) and adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) to measure our performance. FFO is generally considered 
to be an appropriate supplemental non-GAAP measure of the performance of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). In accordance with the National 
Association  of  Real  Estate  Investment  Trusts’  modified  guidance  for  reporting  FFO,  we  have  restated  reporting  of  FFO  to  exclude  non-cash 
impairment  charges.  FFO  is  defined  by  the  National  Association  of  Real  Estate  Investment  Trusts  as  net  earnings  before  depreciation  and 
amortization of real estate assets, gains or losses on dispositions of real estate (including such non-FFO items reported in discontinued operations), 
non-cash  impairment  charges,  extraordinary  items,  and  cumulative  effect  of  accounting  change.  Other  REITs  may  use  definitions  of  FFO  and/or 
AFFO that are different than ours and; accordingly, may not be comparable. We believe that FFO and AFFO are helpful to investors in measuring

our performance because both FFO and AFFO exclude various items included in GAAP net earnings that do not relate to, or are not indicative of, our 
fundamental operating performance. FFO excludes various items such as gains or losses from property dispositions, depreciation and amortization of 
real  estate  assets,  and  non-cash  impairment  charges.  In  our  case;  however,  GAAP  net  earnings  and  FFO  typically  include  the  impact  of  deferred 
rental  revenue  (straight-line  rental  revenue),  the  net  amortization  of  above-market  and  below-market  leases  and  income  recognized  from  direct 
financing leases on the recognition of revenue from rental properties (collectively the “Revenue Recognition Adjustments”), as offset by the impact 
of  related  collection  reserves.  GAAP  net  earnings  and  FFO  from  time  to  time  may  also  include  other  unusual  or  infrequently  occurring  items. 
Deferred rental revenue results primarily from fixed rental increases scheduled under certain leases with our tenants. In accordance with GAAP, the 
aggregate  minimum  rent  due  over  the  current  term  of  these  leases  are  recognized  on  a  straight-line  (or  an  average)  basis  rather  than  when  the 
payment is contractually due. The present value of the difference between the fair market rent and the contractual rent for in-place leases at the time 
properties are acquired is amortized into revenue from rental properties over the remaining lives of the in-place leases. Income from direct financing 
leases is recognized over the lease terms using the effective interest method which produces a constant periodic rate of return on the net investments 
in the leased properties. Management pays particular attention to AFFO, a supplemental non-GAAP performance measure that we define as FFO less 
Revenue  Recognition  Adjustments,  allowance for  deferred  rental  revenue,  acquisition  costs,  and  other unusual  or  infrequently occurring  items.  In 
management’s  view,  AFFO  provides  a  more  accurate  depiction  than  FFO  of  our  fundamental  operating  performance  related  to:  (i) the  impact  of 
scheduled rent increases from operating leases; (ii) the rental revenue from acquired in-place leases; (iii) the impact of rent due from direct financing 
leases;  and  (iv) the  impact  of  other  unusual  or  infrequently  occurring  items.  Neither  FFO  nor  AFFO  represent  cash  generated  from  operating 
activities calculated in accordance with GAAP and therefore these measures should not be considered an alternative for GAAP net earnings or as a 
measure of liquidity.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-
Looking Statements”; the sections in Part II entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors”; the selected financial data in “Item 6. Selected 
Financial  Data”;  and  the  consolidated  financial  statements  and  related  notes  in  “Item  8.  Financial  Statements  and 
Supplementary Data”. 

GENERAL 

Real Estate Investment Trust 

We  are  a  real  estate  investment  trust  (“REIT”)  specializing  in  the  ownership,  leasing  and  financing  of  gas  stations, 
convenience stores, automotive repair service facilities and petroleum distribution terminals. As of December 31, 2012, we 
owned  946  properties  and  leased  from  third  parties  135  properties.  We  elected  to  be  treated  as  a  REIT  under  the  federal 
income tax laws beginning January 1, 2001. As a REIT, we are not subject to federal corporate income tax on the taxable 
income we distribute to our shareholders. In order to continue to qualify for taxation as a REIT, we are required, among other 
things, to distribute at least 90% of our ordinary taxable income to our shareholders each year. 

Retail Petroleum Marketing Business 

Our business model is to lease our properties on a triple-net basis primarily to petroleum distributors and to a lesser 
extent to individual operators. Our tenants operate our properties directly or sublet our properties to operators who operate 
their gas stations, convenience stores, automotive repair service facilities or other businesses at our properties. These tenants 
are  responsible  for  the  operations  conducted  at  these  properties.  Our  triple-net  tenants  are  generally  responsible  for  the 
payment of all taxes, maintenance, repairs, insurance and other operating expenses relating to our properties. Substantially all 
of our tenants’ financial results depend on the sale of refined petroleum products and rental income from their subtenants. As 
a result, our tenants’ financial results are highly dependent on the performance of the petroleum marketing industry, which is 
highly  competitive  and  subject  to  volatility.  In  those  instances  where  we  determine  that  the  best  use  for  a  property  is  no 
longer as a gas station, we will seek an alternative tenant or buyer for the property. As of December 31, 2012, approximately 
20 of our properties are leased for uses such as quick serve restaurants, automobile sales and other retail purposes, excluding 
approximately  40  properties  previously  subject  to  the  Master  Lease  with  Marketing  which  are  currently  held  for  sale  and 
which  have  temporary  occupancies.  (For  additional  information  regarding  our  real  estate  business  and  our  properties,  see 
“Item 1. Business — Real Estate Business” and “Item 2. Properties”.) (For information regarding factors that could adversely 
affect us relating to our lessees, see “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors.) 

Repositioning the Marketing Portfolio 

More than 700 of the properties we own or lease as of December 31, 2012 were previously leased to Getty Petroleum 
Marketing Inc. (“Marketing”) comprising a unitary premises pursuant to a master lease (the “Master Lease”) and we derived 
a  majority of our revenues from the leasing of these properties under the Master Lease. On December 5, 2011, Marketing 
filed  for  Chapter  11  bankruptcy  protection  in  the  U.S.  Bankruptcy  Court  for  the  Southern  District  of  New  York  (the 
“Bankruptcy  Court”).  Marketing rejected  the  Master  Lease  pursuant  to an  Order  issued  by  the  Bankruptcy  Court  effective 
April 30, 2012. Our efforts to reposition the Master Lease portfolio to date have resulted in the following: 

  Long-Term  Triple-Net  Leases.  During  the  fourth  quarter  of  2012,  we  entered  into  four  triple-net  lease 
agreements  covering  161  operating  properties  with  affiliates  of  Capital  Petroleum  Group,  Lehigh  Gas 
Partners, Global Partners and BP North America. The properties subject to the leases are located in New York 
City and the surrounding New York and New Jersey metropolitan areas. The leases have 15 year initial terms 
with provisions for renewal terms and annual rent escalations. 

During 2012, we entered into ten long-term triple-net unitary leases re-letting, in the aggregate, 443 operating 
properties previously leased to Marketing. We entered into six of these leases covering 282 properties in the 
second quarter of 2012 and four of these leases covering 161 properties in the fourth quarter of 2012. While 
we anticipate that we may ultimately enter into additional triple-net leases on smaller portfolios in 2013, we 
believe  we  have  now  completed  all  of  the  significant  portfolio  leases  related  to  the  repositioning  of  the 
portfolio of properties previously leased to Marketing. 

28 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  Remaining  Operating  Properties.  Approximately  155  properties  previously  leased  to  Marketing  and 
operating  as  gas  stations  are  subject  to  month-to-month  license  agreements  and  interim  fuel  supply 
arrangements. We receive monthly occupancy payments directly from the licensee-operators while we remain 
responsible for certain costs associated with the properties. These month-to-month license agreements allow 
the licensees to occupy and use the properties as gas stations, convenience stores or automotive repair service 
facilities, and require the licensee-operators to sell fuel provided exclusively by Global Partners, with whom 
we have contracted for interim fuel supply. Under our agreement with Global, Global is the exclusive supplier 
of fuel to these licensee operators and is required to pay us a fee based in part on gallons sold and we pay to 
Global a monthly administrative service fee. Our month-to-month license agreements differ from our triple-
net  lease  arrangements  in  that,  among  other  things,  we  are  responsible  for  the  payment  of  certain 
environmental compliance costs and property operating expenses including maintenance and real estate taxes. 

During  the  next  12  months,  we  intend  to  reposition  these  properties  in  order  to  maximize  their  value  to  us 
taking into account each property’s intermediate and long-term investment requirements and potential. As a 
result of this process, we expect that we may dispose of or lease these remaining properties, either individually 
or in small portfolios. We also may make investments in certain of these properties in anticipation of leasing 
them  or  by  contribution  to  capital  expenditures  required  to  be  made  by  our  tenants.  We  cannot  predict  the 
timing or the terms of any future sales or leases. 

  Property  Dispositions.  For  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012  we  sold,  for  $15.4  million  in  aggregate,  54 
properties previously leased to Marketing which had their underground storage tanks removed by Marketing. 
As  of  the  date  of  this  Annual  Report  on  Form  10-K,  in  2013,  we  have  sold  an  additional  42  properties  for 
$17.5  million,  including  one  terminal.  We  continue  a  process  of  selling  substantially  all  of  the  remaining 
approximately 60 properties with underground storage tanks removed and eight terminals we own; however, 
the timing of pending transactions may be affected by factors beyond our control and we cannot predict the 
timing  or  terms  of  any  future  dispositions  or  leases.  In  accordance  with  GAAP,  substantially  all  of  these 
properties have met the criteria to be classified as held for sale. 

We are generating less net revenue from the leasing of properties that were previously subject to the Master Lease than 
the contractual rent historically due from Marketing under the Master Lease. We expect that following the completion of the 
repositioning  process,  we  will  continue  to  generate  less  net  revenue  from  these  properties  than  previously  received  from 
Marketing under the Master Lease. 

In  2012,  we  commenced  paying  operating  expenses  such  as  maintenance,  repairs,  real  estate  taxes,  insurance  and 
general  upkeep  related  to  these  properties  (“Property  Expenditures”)  and  certain  environmental  related  liabilities  and 
expenses which Marketing was responsible to pay for (the “Marketing Environmental Liabilities”). Subject to various site-
specific  factors,  we  expect  to  continue  to  pay  for  varying  types  of  Property  Expenditures,  and  capital  improvements, 
including  replacing  underground  storage  tanks  and  related  equipment  or  other  renovations  (“Capital  Improvements”),  and 
Marketing Environmental Liabilities over a period of years relating to the properties previously subject to the Master Lease. 
In  addition,  we  increased  our  number  of  tenants  significantly  and  are  performing  property  related  functions  previously 
performed  by  Marketing,  both  of  which  have  resulted  in  permanent  increases  in  our  annual  operating  expenses.  Costs 
involved with re-letting or repositioning properties formerly leased to Marketing and pursuit of our claims in connection with 
Marketing’s  bankruptcy  resulted  in  temporary  increases  to  our  2012  operating  expenses.  We  incurred  significant  costs 
associated with Marketing’s bankruptcy, including $3.9 million in legal and litigation expenses incurred for the year ended 
December  31,  2012,  of  which  $2.6  million  is  included  in  general  and  administrative  expense  and  $1.3  million  has  been 
recorded  as  a  receivable  as  reimbursable  to  us  pursuant  to  the  Litigation  Funding  Agreement  (defined  below).  We  expect 
certain costs, including repositioning costs and legal and litigation costs, to remain elevated in 2013. 

We,  or  our  tenants,  have  commenced  eviction  proceedings  involving  approximately  40  of  our  properties  in  various 
jurisdictions  against  Marketing’s  former  subtenants  (or  sub-subtenants)  who  have  not  vacated  our  properties  and  most  of 
whom have not accepted license agreements with us or have not entered into new agreements with our distributor tenants and 
therefore occupy our properties without right. We are incurring significant costs, primarily legal expenses, in connection with 
such proceedings.

Marketing and the Master Lease 

As  described  above,  on  December  5,  2011,  Marketing  filed  for  Chapter  11  bankruptcy  protection  in  the  Bankruptcy 
Court.  On  March  7,  2012,  we  entered  into  a  stipulation  with  Marketing  and  with  the  Official  Committee  of  Unsecured 
Creditors  in  the  Bankruptcy  proceedings  (the  “Creditors  Committee”),  which  was  approved  and  made  an  Order  by  the 
Bankruptcy Court on April 2, 2012 (the “Stipulation”). Pursuant to the terms of the Stipulation, in addition to our other pre-
petition and post-petition claims, we are entitled to recover an administrative claim capped at $10.5 million for the partial 
payment of fixed rent and performance of other obligations due from Marketing under the Master Lease from December 5, 
2011  until  possession  of  the  properties  subject  to  the  Master  Lease  was  returned  to  us  effective  April  30,  2012  (the 
“Administrative Claim”). Our Administrative Claim has priority over the claims of other creditors and certain of our other 
claims. As of the date of this filing on Form 10-K, the outstanding unpaid principal amount of our Administrative Claim is 
$7.4 million. 

The Bankruptcy Court has appointed a liquidating trustee (the “Liquidating Trustee”) to oversee the liquidation of the 
Marketing  estate  (the  “Marketing  Estate”).  The  Liquidating  Trustee  continues  to  oversee  the  Marketing  Estate  and  pursue 
claims  for  the  benefit  of  its  creditors,  including  those  related  to  the  recovery  of  various  deposits,  including  surety  bonds, 
insurance policy claims and claims made to state funded tank reimbursement programs. We received distributions reducing 
our Administrative Claim of $1.3 million in the third and fourth quarters of 2012 and $1.7 million in the first quarter of 2013, 
from the Marketing Estate. As a result, in 2012, we reversed portions of our bad debt reserve for uncollectible amounts due 
from Marketing and reduced bad debt expense included in general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statement 
of income. We cannot provide any assurance that we will ultimately collect any additional claims against or unpaid amounts 
due from the Marketing Estate pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, or otherwise. 

In  December  2011,  the  Marketing  Estate  filed  a  lawsuit  against  Marketing’s  former  parent,  Lukoil  Americas 
Corporation, and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Lukoil”), as well as the former directors and officers of Marketing (the 
“Lukoil  Complaint”).  The  Lukoil  Complaint  asserts,  among  other  claims,  that  Marketing’s  sale  of  assets  to  Lukoil  in 
November  2009  constituted  a  fraudulent  conveyance,  and  that  the  assets  or  their  value  can  be  recovered  from  Lukoil.  In 
addition, the Lukoil Complaint asserts that the former directors and officers violated their fiduciary duties to Marketing in 
approving and effectuating the challenged sale, and are liable for money damages. The Liquidating Trustee is pursuing these 
claims for the benefit of the Marketing Estate. It is possible that the Liquidating Trustee will obtain a favorable judgment or 
will  settle  with  the  defendants,  and  therefore  it  is  possible  that  we  may  ultimately  recover  a  portion  of  our  claims  against 
Marketing, including our Administrative Claim, which has priority over most other creditors’ claims, and our additional pre-
petition and post-petition claims. 

In October 2012, we entered into an agreement with the Marketing Estate to make loans and otherwise fund up to an 
aggregate amount of $6.4 million to fund the prosecution of the Lukoil Complaint and certain Liquidating Trustee expenses 
incurred in connection with the wind-down of the Marketing Estate (the “Litigation Funding Agreement”). This agreement 
provides  that  we  are  entitled  to  receive  proceeds,  if  any,  from  the  successful  prosecution  of  the  Lukoil  Complaint  in  an 
amount equal to the sum of (i) all funds advanced for wind-down costs and expert witness and consultant fees plus interest 
accruing  at  15%  per  annum  on  such  advances  made  by  us;  plus  (ii)  the  greater  of  all  funds  advanced  for  legal  fees  and 
expenses relating to the prosecution of the Lukoil Complaint plus interest accruing at 15% per annum on such advances made 
by us, or 24% of the gross proceeds from any settlement or favorable judgment obtained by the Liquidating Trustee due to 
the  Lukoil  Complaint.  It  is  possible  that  we  may  agree  to  advance  amounts  in  excess  of  $6.4  million.  We  advanced  $1.7 
million  in  the  fourth  quarter  of  2012  and  $0.1  million  in  the  first  quarter  of  2013  to  the  Marketing  Estate  pursuant  to  the 
Litigation Funding Agreement. The Litigation Funding Agreement also provides that we are entitled to be reimbursed for up 
to $1.3 million of our legal fees in connection with the Litigation Funding Agreement. Based on the terms of the agreement, 
we have recorded a receivable of $3.0 million as of December 31, 2012, which includes amounts advanced and amounts due 
for  reimbursable  legal  fees  we  incurred  in  connection  with  the  Lukoil  Litigation  Agreement.  Payments  that  we  receive 
pursuant to the Litigation Funding Agreement will not reduce our Administrative Claim or our other pre-petition and post-
petition claims against Marketing. A portion of the payments we receive pursuant to the Litigation Funding Agreement may 
be subject to federal income taxes. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be repaid any amounts we advance pursuant 
to the Litigation Funding Agreement or the reimbursable legal fees we have incurred. 

Under the Master Lease, Marketing was responsible to pay for certain environmental related liabilities and expenses. 
As a result of Marketing’s bankruptcy filing, we have accrued for the Marketing Environmental Liabilities and commenced 
funding remediation activities during the second quarter of 2012 related to such accruals. We do not expect to be reimbursed 
by Marketing for any such remediation activities except as a result of realizing a claim deriving from the Lukoil Complaint. 
We expect to continue to incur and fund costs associated with the Marketing bankruptcy proceedings and associated eviction 
proceedings  as  well  as  costs  associated  with  repositioning  properties  previously  leased  to  Marketing.  We  incurred  $3.1 

30 

 
 
 
 
 
million  of  lease  origination  costs  in  2012,  which  deferred  expense  is  recognized  on  a  straight-line  basis  as  a  reduction  of 
revenues from rental properties over the terms of the various leases. We expect to continue to incur operating expenses such 
as maintenance, repairs, real estate taxes, insurance and general upkeep related to these properties for vacant properties and 
properties subject to our month-to-month license agreements. In certain of our new leases, we have also agreed to co-invest 
as much as $14.1 million with our tenants to fund capital improvements including replacing underground storage tanks and 
related equipment or renovating some of the properties previously leased to Marketing. 

It  is  possible  that  our  estimates  for  the  Marketing  Environmental  Liabilities  and  other  expenses  relating  to  the 
properties previously leased to Marketing will be higher than the amounts we have accrued and that issues involved in re-
letting or repositioning these properties may require significant management attention that would otherwise be devoted to our 
ongoing business. In addition, we increased our number of tenants significantly and are performing property related functions 
previously performed by Marketing, both of which have resulted in permanent increases in our annual operating expenses. 
The incurrence of these various expenses may materially negatively impact our cash flow and ability to pay dividends. 

Our  estimates,  judgments,  assumptions  and  beliefs  regarding  Marketing  and  the  Master  Lease  affect  the  amounts 
reported in our financial statements and are subject to change. Actual results could differ from these estimates, judgments and 
assumptions and such differences could be material. If our actual expenditures for the Marketing Environmental Liabilities 
are  greater  than  the  amounts  accrued,  if  we  incur  significant  costs  and  operating  expenses  relating  to  the  properties 
comprising the Master Lease portfolio; if the repositioning of the properties comprising the Master Lease portfolio leads to a 
protracted and expensive process for taking control and or re-letting our properties; if re-letting the properties comprising the 
Master Lease portfolio requires significant management attention that would otherwise be devoted to our ongoing business; if 
the  Bankruptcy  Court  takes  actions  that  are  detrimental  to  our  interests;  if  we  are  unable  to  re-let  or  sell  the  properties 
comprising the Master Lease portfolio at all or upon terms that are favorable to us; or if we change our estimates, judgments, 
assumptions  and  beliefs;  our  business,  financial  condition,  revenues,  operating  expenses,  results  of  operations,  liquidity, 
ability to pay dividends and stock price may continue to be materially adversely affected or adversely affected to a greater 
extent  than  we  have  experienced.  (For  information  regarding  factors  that  could  adversely  affect  us  relating  to  our  lessees, 
including Marketing, see “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors.”) 

Asset Impairment 

We  perform  an  impairment  analysis  for  the  carrying  amount  of  our  properties  in  accordance  with  GAAP  when 
indicators of impairment exist. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we reduced the carrying amount to fair 
value, and recorded in continuing and discontinued operations, non-cash impairment charges aggregating $13.9 million and 
$20.2  million,  respectively,  where  the  carrying  amount  of  the  property  exceeded  the  estimated  undiscounted  cash  flows 
expected  to  be  received  during  the  assumed  holding  period  and  the  estimated  net  sales  value  expected  to  be  received  at 
disposition.  The  non-cash  impairment  charges  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012  were  attributable  to  reductions  in 
estimated selling prices and increases in the carrying value for certain properties in conjunction with recording environmental 
remediation  obligations  and  related  environmental  asset  retirement  costs.  The  non-cash  impairment  charges  for  the  year 
ended  December  31,  2011  were  attributable  to  recording  the  Marketing  Environmental  Liabilities  in  the  fourth  quarter  of 
2011,  reductions  in  real  estate  valuations  and  reductions  in  the  assumed  holding  period  used  to  test  for  impairment  and 
reductions in estimated selling prices. 

Supplemental Non-GAAP Measures 

We manage our business to enhance the value of our real estate portfolio and, as a REIT, place particular emphasis on 
minimizing risk and generating cash sufficient to make required distributions to shareholders of at least 90% of our ordinary 
taxable  income  each  year.  In  addition  to  measurements  defined  by  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United 
States  of  America  (“GAAP”),  our  management  also  focuses  on  funds  from  operations  available  to  common  shareholders 
(“FFO”) and adjusted funds from operations available to common shareholders (“AFFO”) to measure our performance. FFO 
is generally considered to be an appropriate supplemental non-GAAP measure of the performance of REITs. In accordance 
with  the  National  Association  of  Real  Estate  Investment  Trusts’  modified  guidance  for  reporting  FFO,  we  have  restated 
reporting  of  FFO  for  all  periods  presented  to  exclude  non-cash  impairment  charges.  FFO  is  defined  by  the  National 
Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts as net earnings before depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, gains 
or  losses  on  dispositions  of  real  estate  (including  such  non-FFO  items  reported  in  discontinued  operations),  non-cash 
impairment  charges,  extraordinary  items  and  cumulative  effect  of  accounting  change.  Other  REITs  may  use  definitions  of 
FFO and/or AFFO that are different than ours and; accordingly, may not be comparable. Beginning in 2011, we revised our 
definition  of  AFFO  to  exclude  direct  expensed  costs  related  to  property  acquisitions  and  other  unusual  or  infrequently 
occurring items. 

31 

 
 
 
 
 
 
We believe that FFO and AFFO are helpful to investors in measuring our performance because both FFO and AFFO 
exclude various items included in GAAP net earnings that do not relate to, or are not indicative of, our fundamental operating 
performance.  FFO  excludes  various  items  such  as  gains  or  losses  from  property  dispositions  and  depreciation  and 
amortization  of  real  estate  assets  and  non-cash  impairment  charges.  In  our  case;  however,  GAAP  net  earnings  and  FFO 
typically include the impact of the “Revenue Recognition Adjustments” comprised of deferred rental revenue (straight-line 
rental revenue), the net amortization of above-market and below-market leases and income recognized from direct financing 
leases on our recognition of revenues from rental properties, as offset by the impact of related collection reserves. GAAP net 
earnings and FFO from time to time may also include property acquisition costs or other unusual or infrequently recurring 
items. Deferred rental revenue results primarily from fixed rental increases scheduled under certain leases with our tenants. In 
accordance with GAAP, the aggregate minimum rent due over the current term of these leases are recognized on a straight-
line (or average) basis rather than when payment is contractually due. The present value of the difference between the fair 
market  rent  and  the  contractual  rent  for  in-place  leases  at  the  time  properties  are  acquired  is  amortized  into  revenue  from 
rental properties over the remaining lives of the in-place leases. Income from direct financing leases is recognized over the 
lease terms using the effective interest method which produces a constant periodic rate of return on the net investments in the 
leased properties. Property acquisition costs are expensed, generally in the period when properties are acquired, and are not 
reflective of normal operations. Other unusual or infrequently occurring items are not reflective of normal operations. 

Management  pays  particular  attention  to  AFFO,  a  supplemental  non-GAAP  performance  measure  that  we  define  as 
FFO less Revenue Recognition Adjustments, property acquisition costs and other unusual or infrequently occurring items. In 
management’s view, AFFO provides a more accurate depiction than FFO of our fundamental operating performance related 
to: (i) the impact of scheduled rent increases from operating leases, net of related collection reserves; (ii) the rental revenue 
earned  from  acquired  in-place  leases;  (iii) the  impact  of  rent  due  from  direct  financing  leases;  (iv)  our  operating  expenses 
(exclusive  of  direct  expensed  operating  property  acquisition  costs);  and  (v) other  unusual  or  infrequently  occurring  items. 
Neither FFO nor AFFO represent cash generated from operating activities calculated in accordance with GAAP and therefore 
these  measures  should  not  be  considered  an  alternative  for  GAAP  net  earnings  or  as  a  measure  of  liquidity.  For  a 
reconciliation of FFO and AFFO, see “Item 6. Selected Financial Data”. 

2012, 2011 and 2010 Acquisitions 

In  2012,  we  acquired  fee  or  leasehold  title  to  five  gasoline  station  and  convenience  store  properties  in  separate 

transactions for an aggregate purchase price of $5.2 million. 

On  January 13,  2011,  we  acquired  fee  or  leasehold  title  to  59  Mobil-branded  gasoline  station  and  convenience  store 
properties and also took a security interest in six 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. 
Our  total  investment  in  the  transaction  was  $111.6  million  including  acquisition  costs,  which  was  financed  entirely  with 
borrowings under our revolving credit facility. 

The properties were acquired or financed in a simultaneous transaction among ExxonMobil, CPD NY and us 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 and leasehold interests with us. The lease between us, as lessor, and CPD 
NY,  as  lessee,  governing  the  properties  is  a  unitary  triple-net  lease  agreement  (the  “CPD  Lease”),  with  an  initial  term  of 
15 years, and options for up to three successive renewal terms of ten years each. The CPD 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 CPD 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  CPD  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  us  under  a  secured,  self-
amortizing loan having a 10-year term (the “CPD Loan”). 

On  March 31,  2011,  we  acquired  fee  or  leasehold  title  to  66  Shell-branded  gasoline  station  and  convenience  store 
properties  in  a  sale/leaseback  transaction  with  Nouria  Energy  Ventures  I,  LLC  (“Nouria”),  a  subsidiary  of  Nouria  Energy 
Group.  Our  total  investment  in  the  transaction  was  $87.0  million  including  acquisition  costs,  which  was  financed  entirely 
with borrowings under our revolving credit facility. 

The properties were acquired in a simultaneous transaction among Motiva Enterprises LLC (“Shell”), Nouria and us 
whereby Nouria acquired a portfolio of 66 gasoline station and convenience stores from Shell and simultaneously completed 
a sale/leaseback of the 66 acquired properties and leasehold interests with us. The lease between us, as lessor, and Nouria, as 
lessee, governing the properties is a unitary triple-net lease agreement (the “Nouria Lease”), with an initial term of 20 years, 

32 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
and options for up to two successive renewal terms of ten years each followed by one final renewal term of five years. The 
Nouria Lease requires Nouria 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  every  annual 
anniversary of the date of the Nouria Lease. As a triple-net lessee, Nouria is required to pay all amounts pertaining to the 
properties subject to the Nouria Lease, including taxes, assessments, licenses and permit fees, charges for public utilities and 
all governmental charges. 

In 2010, we purchased three gasoline station and convenience store properties in separate transactions for an aggregate 

purchase price of $3.6 million. 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 

Year ended December 31, 2012 compared to year ended December 31, 2011 

Revenues from rental properties included in continuing operations decreased by $1.0 million to $99.3 million for the 
year  ended  December  31,  2012,  as  compared  to  $100.3  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2011.  Revenues  from 
rental  properties  include  approximately  $73.0  million  and  $45.5  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012  and 
December 31, 2011, respectively, in rent contractually due or received from tenants other than Marketing including rent 
for  May  2012  through  December  2012  related  to  properties  repositioned  from  the  Master  Lease.  Revenues  from  rental 
properties included in continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2012 include approximately $20.1 million 
and, for the year ended December 31, 2011, $52.6 million in rent contractually due or received from Marketing under the 
Master Lease (for which bad debt reserves of $11.5 million and $7.3 million were provided and are included in general 
and administrative expenses in our consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, 
respectively). The decrease in revenues from rental properties for the year ended December 31, 2012 was primarily due to 
the fact that we are generating less net revenue from the leasing of properties that were previously subject to the Master 
Lease than the contractual rent historically due from Marketing under the Master Lease. The decrease in revenues from 
rental  properties  was  partially  offset  by  rental  income  from  properties  we  acquired  from,  and  leased  back  to,  Nouria 
Energy Ventures I, LLC (“Nouria”) in March 2011 and an increase in the real estate taxes we paid and billed to Marketing 
through  April  30,  2012,  the  date  the  Master  Lease  was  rejected,  and  from  other  tenants  pursuant  to  triple-net  leases 
thereafter. As a result of Marketing’s bankruptcy filing, beginning in the first quarter of 2012, we began paying past due 
real estate taxes for 2011 and 2012, which taxes Marketing historically paid directly. Revenues from rental properties and 
rental property expense included $11.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to $6.6 million for the 
year  ended  December  31,  2011  for  real  estate  taxes  paid  by  us  which  were  due  from  Marketing  through  the  date  the 
Master Lease was rejected as well as from other tenants who are contractually obligated to reimburse us for the payment 
of real estate taxes pursuant to the terms of triple-net lease agreements. The decrease in rent contractually due or received 
from  Marketing  and  other  tenants  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2012  was  also  due,  to  a  lesser  extent,  the  effect  of 
dispositions and lease expirations partially offset by rent escalations. 

In accordance with GAAP, we recognize rental revenue in amounts which vary from the amount of rent contractually 
due  or  received  during  the  periods  presented.  As  a  result,  revenues  from  rental  properties  include  Revenue  Recognition 
Adjustments comprised of non-cash adjustments recorded for deferred rental revenue due to the recognition of rental income 
on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  current  lease  term,  net  amortization  of  above-market  and  below-market  leases  and 
recognition of rental income under direct financing leases using the effective interest rate method which produces a constant 
periodic  rate  of  return  on  the  net  investments  in  the  leased  properties.  Rental  revenue  includes  Revenue  Recognition 
Adjustments which increased rental revenue by $4.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 and $2.1 million for the 
year ended December 31, 2011. 

Interest  income  from  notes  and  mortgages  receivable  increased  by  $0.2  million  to  $2.9  million  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2012 as compared to $2.7 million the year ended December 31, 2011 due to the issuance of $4.6 million of 
mortgage notes in connection with 2012 property dispositions. 

Rental  property  expenses  included  in  continuing operations, which  are primarily  comprised  of  rent  expense  and real 
estate and other state and local taxes, were $30.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to $16.0 million 
for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in rental property expenses is principally due to additional maintenance 
expense and real estate tax expenses paid by us and reimbursable by our tenants related to properties and leasehold interests 
acquired in 2011 and real estate taxes historically paid by Marketing directly, which taxes we began paying in the first quarter 
of  2012.  The  reimbursement  of  real  estate  taxes  from  our  tenants  is  included  in  revenues  from  rental  properties  in  our 
consolidated statement of operations. We provide bad debt reserves for the taxes reimbursable from Marketing since do not 
expect to receive payment of taxes from the Marketing Estate.

Non-cash impairment charges of $6.3 million are included in continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 
2012 as compared to $15.9 million recorded for the year ended December 31, 2011. Impairment charges are incurred when 
the carrying value of a property is reduced to fair value. The non-cash impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 
2012 were attributable to reductions in estimated selling prices and increases in the carrying value for certain properties in 
conjunction with recording environmental remediation obligations and related environmental asset retirement costs. The non-
cash impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2011 were attributable to recording the Marketing Environmental 
Liabilities  in  the  fourth  quarter  of  2011,  reductions  in  real  estate  valuations  and  reductions  in  the  assumed  holding  period 
used to test for impairment and reductions in estimated selling prices. 

Environmental  expenses  included  in  continuing operations  for  the  year ended December 31,  2012  decreased  by $4.8 
million, to $0.8 million, as compared to $5.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in environmental 
expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 was due to a lower provision for litigation loss reserves and legal fees, which 
decreased  by  $2.6  million  for  2012,  and  a  lower  provision  for  estimated  environmental  remediation  obligations,  which 
decreased by an aggregate $2.6 million to a credit of $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $2.3 
million for the year ended December 31, 2011, partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in professional fees. Environmental 
expenses vary from period to period and, accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on the magnitude or the direction 
of change in reported environmental expenses for one period as compared to prior periods.  

General and administrative expenses included in continuing operations increased by $7.0 million to $29.1 million for 
the  year  ended  December 31,  2012  as  compared  to  $22.1  million  recorded  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2011.  The 
increase in general and administrative expenses was principally due to an increase of $5.9 million of reserve for bad debts 
primarily attributable to nonpayment of rent and real estate taxes due from Marketing that we do not expect to collect, $2.6 
million of legal and professional fees incurred related to Marketing’s defaults of its obligations under the Master Lease and 
bankruptcy filing, higher employee related expenses recorded in the year ended December 31, 2012, partially offset by a $2.0 
million decrease in property acquisition costs. 

As  a  result  of  Marketing’s  material  monetary  default  under  the  Master  Lease  and  Marketing’s  bankruptcy  filing,  in 
2011 we concluded that it was probable that we would not receive the contractual lease payments when due from Marketing 
for the entire initial term of the Master Lease. Therefore, during 2011, we increased our reserve by recording additional non-
cash  allowances  for  deferred  rent  receivable,  of  which  $19.3  million  is  included  in  continuing  operations.  These  non-cash 
allowances reduced our net earnings and funds from operations for the year ended December 31, 2011, but did not impact our 
cash  flow  from  operating  activities  or  adjusted  funds  from  operations  since  the  impact  of  the  straight  line  method  of 
accounting is not included in our determination of adjusted funds from operations. 

Depreciation and amortization expense included in continuing operations for 2012 was $12.5 million for the year ended 
December 31, 2012, as compared to $9.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase was primarily due to 
depreciation charges related to asset retirement costs and properties acquired, partially offset by the effect of certain assets 
becoming fully depreciated, lease terminations and dispositions of real estate. 

As a result, total operating expenses decreased by approximately $9.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, 

as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. 

Other income, net, included in income from continuing operations was $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 

2012, as compared to $0.016 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. 

Interest  expense  was  $9.9  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012,  as  compared  to  $5.1  million  for  the  year 
ended  December  31,  2011.  The  increase  was  due  to  an  increase  in  the  weighted-average  interest  rate  on  borrowings 
outstanding, loan origination costs incurred in March 2012 amortized over the one year extension of our debt agreements, and 
higher average borrowings outstanding for the year ended December31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 
2011, partially offset by the expiration of the Swap Agreement on June 30, 2011. 

As  a  result,  earnings  from  continuing  operations  were  $13.8  million  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2012,  as 
compared to $9.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and net earnings decreased by $0.1 million to $12.4 million 
for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $12.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. 

We report as discontinued operations the results of approximately 111 properties accounted for as held for sale as of 
the end of the current period and certain properties disposed of during the periods presented. The operating results and gains 
from certain dispositions of real estate sold in 2012 have been classified as discontinued operations. The operating results of 
such properties for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 have also been reclassified to discontinued operations to 

34 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
conform to the 2012 presentation. Earnings from discontinued operations decreased by $4.4 million to a loss of $1.4 million 
for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to earnings of $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The 
decrease was primarily due to lower rental revenue and higher operating costs, including higher impairment charges, partially 
offset by higher gains on dispositions of real estate. Gains from dispositions of real estate included in discontinued operations 
were $6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 and $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. For the 
year ended December 31, 2012, there were 54 property dispositions. For the year ended December 31, 2011, there were 10 
property dispositions. Gains on disposition of real estate and impairment charges vary from period to period and accordingly, 
undue reliance should not be placed on the magnitude or the directions of change in reported gains and impairment charges 
for one period as compared to prior periods. 

For the year ended December 31, 2012, FFO decreased by $8.9 million to $33.2 million, as compared to $42.1 million 
for the year ended December 31, 2011, and AFFO decreased by $33.9 million to $28.8 million, as compared to $62.7 million 
for  the  prior  year.  The  decrease  in  FFO  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2012  was  primarily  due  to  the  changes  in  net 
earnings but exclude a $6.3 million decrease in impairment charges, a $3.4 million increase in depreciation and amortization 
expense  and  a  $5.9  million  increase  in  gains  on  dispositions  of  real  estate.  The  decrease  in  AFFO  for  the  year  ended 
December 31,  2012  also  exclude  a  $19.8  million  decrease  in  the  allowance  for  deferred  rental  revenue,  a  $2.0  million 
decrease in acquisition costs and a $3.2 million increase in Rental Revenue Adjustments which cause our reported revenues 
from  rental  properties  to  vary  from  the  amount  of  rent  payments  contractually  due  or  received  by  us  during  the  periods 
presented (which are included in net earnings and FFO but are excluded from AFFO). 

Diluted  earnings  per  share  was  $0.37  per  share  for  the  years  ended  December 31,  2012  and  2011.  Diluted  FFO  per 
share  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2012  was  $0.99  per  share,  as  compared  to  $1.26  per  share  for  the  year  ended 
December 31,  2011.  Diluted  AFFO  per  share  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2012  was  $0.86  per  share,  as  compared  to 
$1.88 per share for the year ended December 31, 2011. 

Year ended December 31, 2011 compared to year ended December 31, 2010 

Revenues  from  rental  properties  included  in  continuing  operations  were  $100.3  million  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2011, as compared to $78.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. Revenues from rental properties 
include  approximately  $52.6  million  and  $50.1  million  in  rent  contractually  due  or  received  for  the  years  ended 
December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, from properties leased to Marketing under the Master Lease and 
approximately $45.5 million and $26.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, contractually 
due or received from other tenants. The increase in rent contractually due or received from other tenants for the year ended 
December 31, 2011 was primarily due to rental income from properties we acquired from, and leased back to, CPD NY in 
January 2011 and Nouria in March 2011. The increase in the rent contractually due or received from Marketing for the year 
ended December 31, 2011 was primarily due to an increase in the real estate taxes we pay (or accrue) and bill to Marketing. 
As a result of Marketing’s bankruptcy filing, beginning in the first quarter of 2012, we began paying past due real estate taxes 
for  2011  and  2012,  which  taxes  Marketing  historically  paid  directly.  Revenues  from  rental  properties  and  rental  property 
expense  included  $6.6  million  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2011  as  compared  to  $1.8  million  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2010 for real estate taxes paid (or accrued) by us which were due from Marketing as well as from other tenants 
who are contractually obligated to reimburse us for the payment of real estate taxes pursuant to the terms of triple-net lease 
agreements. The increase in rent received for the year ended December 31, 2011 was primarily due to rental income from 
properties we acquired from, and leased back to, CPD in January 2011 and Nouria in March 2011 and, to a lesser extent, due 
to rent escalations, partially offset by the effect of dispositions of real estate and lease expirations. 

In accordance with GAAP, we recognize rental revenue in amounts which vary from the amount of rent contractually 
due  or  received  during  the  periods  presented.  As  a  result,  revenues  from  rental  properties  include  Revenue  Recognition 
Adjustments comprised of non-cash adjustments recorded for deferred rental revenue due to the recognition of rental income 
on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  current  lease  term,  net  amortization  of  above-market  and  below-market  leases  and 
recognition of rental income under direct financing leases using the effective interest rate method which produces a constant 
periodic  rate  of  return  on  the  net  investments  in  the  leased  properties.  Rental  revenue  includes  Revenue  Recognition 
Adjustments which increased rental revenue by $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and $1.7 million for the 
year ended December 31, 2010. 

Interest  income  from  notes  and  mortgages  receivable  increased  by  $2.6  million  to  $2.7  million  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2011 as compared to $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to the issuance of $30.4 
million of notes receivable substantially all in connection with the acquisitions completed in 2011. 

35 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Rental  property  expenses  included  in  continuing operations, which  are primarily  comprised  of  rent  expense  and real 
estate and other state and local taxes, were $16.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to $10.1 million 
for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in rental property expenses is principally due to additional real estate tax 
and rent expenses paid by us and reimbursable by our tenants related to properties and leasehold interests acquired in 2011 
and accrued past due real estate taxes historically paid by Marketing directly, which taxes we began paying in the first quarter 
of  2012.  The  reimbursement  of  such  expenses  from  our  tenants  is  included  in  revenues  from  rental  properties  in  our 
consolidated statement of operations. We provided a bad debt reserve for the taxes reimbursable from Marketing since do not 
expect to receive payment of taxes from the Marketing Estate. 

Non-cash  impairment  charges  of  $15.9  million  are  included  in  continuing  operations  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2011 as compared to no impairment charges recorded for the year ended December 31, 2010. The non-cash 
impairment charges related to the properties leased to Marketing were primarily attributable to significant increases in the 
carrying value for certain of the properties in conjunction with recording the Marketing Environmental Liabilities. In the 
fourth quarter of 2011, we accrued $47.9 million as the aggregate Marketing Environmental Liabilities since we could no 
longer assume that Marketing will be able to meet its environmental remediation obligations and its obligations to remove 
underground storage tanks at the end of their useful life. In accordance with GAAP, we increased the carrying value for 
each  of  the  affected  properties  by  the  amount  of  the  related  estimated  environmental  obligation  which  resulted  in 
simultaneously  recording  impairment  charges  in  continuing  operations  and  discontinued  operations  aggregating  $17.0 
million  where  the  increased  carrying  value  of  the  property  exceeded  its  estimated  fair  value.  The  non-cash  impairment 
charges recorded  earlier  in  the  year  resulted from  reductions  in real estate valuations  and  the reductions  in  the assumed 
holding period used to test for impairment. 

Environmental  expenses  included  in  continuing  operations  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2011  increased  by  $0.2 
million,  to  $5.6  million,  as  compared  to  $5.4  million  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2010.  The  increase  in  net 
environmental  expenses  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2011  was  primarily  due  to  a  higher  provision  for  litigation  loss 
reserves  and  legal  fees  which  increased  by  $0.6  million  for  2011,  partially  offset  by  a  lower  provision  for  estimated 
environmental  remediation  obligations  which  decreased  by  an  aggregate  $0.4  million  to  $2.3  million  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2011, as compared to $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. Environmental expenses vary from 
period  to  period  and,  accordingly,  undue  reliance  should  not  be  placed  on  the  magnitude  or  the  direction  of  change  in 
reported environmental expenses for one period as compared to prior periods. 

General  and  administrative  expenses  included  in  continuing  operations  were  $22.1  million  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2011, as compared to $8.2 million recorded for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in general and 
administrative expenses was principally due to $7.6 million of reserve for bad debts primarily attributable to nonpayment of 
pre-petition  rent  and  real  estate  taxes  due  from  Marketing  that  we  do  not  expect  to  collect,  $2.0  million  of  property 
acquisition costs, $1.5 million of legal and professional fees incurred related to Marketing’s defaults of its obligations under 
the  Master  Lease  and  bankruptcy  filing  and  higher  employee  related  expenses  and  legal  fees  recorded  in  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2011. 

As a result of Marketing’s material  monetary default under the Master Lease and Marketing’s bankruptcy filing, we 
previously  concluded  that  it  was  probable  that  we  would  not  receive  the  contractual  lease  payments  when  due  from 
Marketing  for  the  entire  initial  term  of  the  Master  Lease.  Therefore,  during  2011,  we  increased  our  reserve  by  recording 
additional  non-cash  allowances  for  deferred  rent  receivable  of  $19.3  million.  These  non-cash  allowances  reduced  our  net 
earnings and funds from operations for the year ended December 31, 2011, but did not impact our cash flow from operating 
activities or adjusted funds from operations since the impact of the straight line method of accounting is not included in our 
determination of adjusted funds from operations. 

Depreciation  and  amortization  expense  included  in  continuing  operations  was  $9.5  million  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2011, as compared to $9.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase was primarily due to 
depreciation charges related to asset retirement costs and properties acquired, partially offset by the effect of certain assets 
becoming fully depreciated, lease terminations and dispositions of real estate. 

As a result, total operating expenses increased by approximately $55.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, 

as compared to the year ended December 31, 2010. 

Other income, net, included in income from continuing operations was $0.016 million for the year ended December 31, 

2011, as compared to $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. 

36 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Interest expense was $5.1 million for each of 2011 and 2010. While there was no significant change in interest expense 
recorded for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to the prior year period, the weighted average interest rate on 
borrowings  outstanding  decreased  due  to  changes  in  the  relative  amounts  of  debt  outstanding  under  our  borrowing 
agreements and average borrowings outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2011 were higher than average borrowings 
outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2010. The average borrowings outstanding in 2011 were impacted by, among 
other things, $113.0 million drawn under a revolving credit facility to finance the transaction with CPD NY, $92.1 million 
drawn under a revolving credit facility to finance the transaction with Nouria and the repayment of borrowings outstanding 
under  our  revolving  credit  facility  with  substantially  all  of  the  net  proceeds  of  $92.0  million  received  in  2011  from  a 
3.45 million share common stock offering. 

As  a  result,  earnings  from  continuing  operations  decreased  by  $31.5  million  to  $9.4  million  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2011, as compared to $40.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 and net earnings decreased by $39.2 
million  to  $12.5  million  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2011,  as  compared  to  $51.7  million  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2010. 

The  operating  results  and  gains  from  certain  dispositions  of  real  estate  sold  in  2012  have  been  classified  as 
discontinued operations. The operating results of such properties for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 have also 
been  reclassified  to  discontinued  operations  to  conform  to  the  2012  presentation.  Earnings  from  discontinued  operations 
decreased by $7.8 million to $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, as compared to $10.8 million for the year 
ended December 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily due to lower earnings from operating activities and lower gains on 
dispositions of real estate. Gains from dispositions of real estate included in discontinued operations were $0.9 million for the 
year ended December 31, 2011 and $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. For the year ended December 31, 
2011, there were 10 property dispositions. For the year ended December 31, 2010, there were six property dispositions. Other 
income, net and gains on disposition of real estate vary from period to period and accordingly, undue reliance should not be 
placed on the magnitude or the directions of change in reported gains for one period as compared to prior periods. 

For the year ended December 31, 2011, FFO decreased by $17.6 million to $42.1 million, as compared to $59.7 million 
for the year ended December 31, 2010, and AFFO increased by $4.5 million to $62.7 million, as compared to $58.2 million 
for  the  prior  year.  The  decrease  in  FFO  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2011  was  primarily  due  to  the  changes  in  net 
earnings  but  excludes  a  $20.2  million  increase  in  impairment  charges,  a  $0.6  million  increase  in  depreciation  and 
amortization expense and a $0.7 million decrease in gains on dispositions of real estate. The increase in AFFO for the year 
ended December 31, 2011 also excludes a $19.8 million increase in the allowance for deferred rental revenue, a $2.0 million 
increase in acquisition costs and a $0.3 million decrease in Rental Revenue Adjustments which cause our reported revenues 
from  rental  properties  to  vary  from  the  amount  of  rent  payments  contractually  due  or  received  by  us  during  the  periods 
presented (which are included in net earnings and FFO but are excluded from AFFO). 

The calculations of net earnings per share, FFO per share, and AFFO per share for the year ended December 31, 2011 
were impacted by an increase in the weighted average number of shares outstanding as a result of the issuance of shares of 
common stock in 2010 and 2011. The weighted average number of shares outstanding in our per share calculations increased 
by 5.2 million shares, or 18.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2011, as compared to the prior year period. Accordingly, 
the percentage or direction of the changes in net earnings, FFO and AFFO discussed above may differ from the changes in 
the  related  per  share  amounts.  Diluted  earnings  per  share  was  $0.37  per  share  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2011  as 
compared to $1.84 per share for the year ended December 31, 2010. Diluted FFO per share for the year ended December 31, 
2011 was $1.26 per share, as compared to $2.13 per share for the year ended December 31, 2010. Diluted AFFO per share for 
the year ended December 31, 2011 was $1.88 per share, as compared to $2.08 per share for the year ended December 31, 
2010. 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES 

Our principal sources of liquidity are the cash flows from our operations, funds available under our Credit Agreement 
that  matures  in  August  2015,  described  below,  and  available  cash  and  cash  equivalents.  Management  believes  that  our 
operating  cash  needs  for  the  next  twelve  months  can  be  met  by  cash  flows  from  operations,  borrowings  under  our  Credit 
Agreement  and  available  cash  and  cash  equivalents.  Net  cash  flow  provided  by  operating  activities  reported  on  our 
consolidated  statement  of  cash  flows  for  2012,  2011  and  2010  were  $15.9  million,  $60.8  million  and  $57.1  million, 
respectively. Our business operations and liquidity is dependent on our ability to generate cash flow from our properties.

Debt Refinancing 

As  of  December  31,  2012,  we  were  a  party  to  a  $175  million  amended  and  restated  senior  secured  revolving  credit 
agreement  with  a  group  of  commercial  banks  led  by  JPMorgan  Chase  Bank,  N.A.  and  a  $25  million  amended  term  loan 
agreement with TD Bank, both of which were scheduled to mature in March 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2012, borrowings 
under the credit agreement were $150.3 million bearing interest at a rate of 3.25% per annum and borrowings under the term 
loan agreement were $22.0 million bearing interest at a rate of 3.50% per annum. On February 25, 2013, the borrowings then 
outstanding under such credit agreement and term loan agreement were repaid with cash on hand and proceeds of the Credit 
Agreement and the Prudential Loan Agreement (both defined below). 

Credit Agreement 

On February 25, 2013, we entered into a $175 million senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) 
with a group of commercial banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Bank Syndicate”), which is scheduled to mature in 
August 2015. Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, we have the option to extend the term of the Credit Agreement for 
one additional year to August 2016. The Credit Agreement allocates $25 million of the total Bank Syndicate commitment to a 
term loan and $150 million to a revolving credit facility. Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, we have the option to 
increase by $50 million the amount of the revolving credit facility to $200 million. The Credit Agreement permits borrowings at 
an interest rate equal to the sum of a base rate plus a margin of 1.50% to 2.00% or a LIBOR rate plus a margin of 2.50% to 
3.00% based on our leverage at the end of each quarterly reporting period. The annual commitment fee on the undrawn funds 
under  the  Credit  Agreement  is  0.30%  to  0.40%  based  our  leverage  at  the  end  of  each  quarterly  reporting  period.  The  Credit 
Agreement does not provide for scheduled reductions in the principal balance prior to its maturity. 

The  Credit  Agreement  provides  for  security  in  the  form  of,  among  other  items,  mortgage  liens  on  certain  of  our 
properties.  The  parties  to  the  Credit  Agreement  and  the  Prudential  Loan  Agreement  (as  defined  below)  share  the  security 
pursuant to the terms of an inter-creditor agreement. The Credit Agreement contains customary financial covenants such as 
loan to value, leverage and coverage ratios and minimum tangible net worth, as well as limitations on restricted payments, 
which may limit our ability to incur additional debt or pay dividends. The Credit Agreement contains customary events of 
default, including default under the Prudential Loan Agreement, change of control and failure to maintain REIT status. Any 
event of default, if not cured or waived, would increase by 200 basis points (2.00%) the interest rate we pay under the Credit 
Agreement  and  prohibit  us  from  drawing  funds  against  the  Credit  Agreement  and  could  result  in  the  acceleration  of  our 
indebtedness under the Credit Agreement and could also give rise to an event of default and could result in the acceleration of 
our  indebtedness  under  the  Prudential  Loan  Agreement.  We  may  be  prohibited  from  drawing  funds  against  the  revolving 
credit facility if there is a material adverse effect on our business, assets, prospects or condition. 

Prudential Loan Agreement 

On February 25, 2013, we entered into a $100 million senior secured long-term loan agreement with the Prudential 
Insurance Company of America (the “Prudential Loan Agreement”), which matures in February 2021. The parties to the 
Credit Agreement and the Prudential Loan Agreement share the security described above pursuant to the terms of an inter-
creditor  agreement.  The  Prudential  Loan  Agreement  bears  interest  at  6.00%.  The  Prudential  Loan  Agreement  does  not 
provide for scheduled reductions in the principal balance prior to its maturity. The Prudential Loan Agreement contains 
customary  financial  covenants  such  as  loan  to  value,  leverage  and  coverage  ratios  and  minimum  tangible  net  worth,  as 
well  as  limitations  on  restricted  payments,  which  may  limit  our  ability  to  incur  additional  debt  or  pay  dividends.  The 
Prudential  Loan  Agreement  contains  customary  events  of  default,  including  default  under  the  Credit  Agreement  and 
failure to maintain REIT status. Any event of default, if not cured or waived, would increase by 200 basis points (2.00%) 
the  interest  rate  we  pay  under  the  Prudential  Loan  Agreement  and  could  result  in  the  acceleration  of  our  indebtedness 
under the Prudential Loan Agreement and could also give rise to an event of default and could result in the acceleration of 
our indebtedness under our Credit Agreement. 

Property Acquisitions and Capital Expenditures 

Since  we  generally  lease  our  properties  on  a  triple-net  basis,  we  have  not  historically  incurred  significant  capital 
expenditures  other  than  those  related  to  acquisitions.  As  part  of  our  overall  business  strategy,  we  regularly  review 
opportunities to acquire additional properties and we expect to continue to pursue acquisitions that we believe will benefit our 
financial performance. Our property acquisitions and capital expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 
2010 amounted to $4.1 million,$167.5 million and $4.7 million, respectively, substantially all of which was for acquisitions. 
We  are  evaluating  potential  capital  expenditures  for  properties  that  were  previously  subject  to  the  Master  Lease  with 
Marketing and which are not currently subject to long-term leases. We have no current plans to make material improvements 

38 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
to  any  of  our  properties  other  than  the  properties  previously  subject  to  the  Master  Lease  with  Marketing.  However,  our 
tenants frequently make improvements to the properties leased from us at their expense. In certain of our new leases, we have 
committed  to  co-invest  as  much  as  $14.1  million  in  capital  improvements  in  our  properties.  (For  additional  information 
regarding capital expenditures related to the properties subject to the Master Lease, see “Item 2. Properties”). To the extent 
that our sources of liquidity are not sufficient to fund acquisitions and capital expenditures, we will require other sources of 
capital, which may or may not be available on favorable terms or at all. 

Dividends 

We  elected  to  be  treated  as  a  REIT  under  the  federal  income  tax  laws  with  the  year  beginning  January 1,  2001.  To 
qualify for taxation as a REIT, we must, among other requirements such as those related to the composition of our assets and 
gross income,  distribute annually  to our stockholders at least 90% of our taxable income, including taxable income that is 
accrued by us without a corresponding receipt of cash. We cannot provide any assurance that our cash flows will permit us to 
continue  paying  cash  dividends.  The  Internal  Revenue  Service  (“IRS”)  has  allowed  the  use  of  a  procedure,  as  a  result  of 
which we could satisfy the REIT income distribution requirement by making a distribution on our common stock comprised 
of (i) shares of our common stock having a value of up to 80% of the total distribution and (ii) cash in the remaining amount 
of the total distribution, in lieu of paying the distribution entirely in cash. In order to use this procedure, we would need to 
seek  and  obtain  a  private  letter  ruling  of  the  IRS  to  the  effect  that  the  procedure  is  applicable  to  our  situation.  Without 
obtaining  such  a  private  letter  ruling,  we  cannot  provide  any  assurance  that  we  will  be  able  to  satisfy  our  REIT  income 
distribution  requirement  by  making  distributions  payable  in  whole  or  in  part  in  shares  of  our  common  stock.  It  is  also 
possible that instead of distributing 100% of our taxable income on an annual basis, we may decide to retain a portion of our 
taxable  income  and  to  pay  taxes  on  such  amounts  as  permitted  by  the  IRS.  Payment  of  dividends  is  subject  to  market 
conditions, our financial condition, including but not limited to, our continued compliance with the provisions of the Credit 
Agreement  and  the  Prudential  Loan  Agreement  and  other  factors,  and  therefore  is  not  assured.  In  particular,  our  Credit 
Agreement  and  Prudential  Loan  Agreement  prohibit  the  payment  of  dividends  during  certain  events  of  default.  Cash 
dividends  paid  to  our  shareholders  aggregated  $8.4  million,  $63.4  million  and  $52.3  million,  for  the  years  ended 
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. We reduced our quarterly dividend rate to $0.125 per share in the quarter 
ended  June  30,  2012.  In  February  2013,  we  increased  our  quarterly  dividend  rate  to  $0.20  per  share.  There  can  be  no 
assurance  that  we  will  be  able  to  continue  to  pay  cash  dividends  at  the  rate  of  $0.20  per  share  per  quarter  in  cash  or  a 
combination of cash and our stock, if at all. 

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS 

Our  significant  contractual  obligations  and  commitments  as  of  December  31,  2012  were  comprised  of  borrowings 
under  an  amended  credit  agreement  and  an  amended  term  loan  agreement,  operating  lease  payments  due  to  landlords, 
estimated environmental remediation expenditures, co-investing with our tenants in capital improvements at our properties 
and our obligations pursuant to the Litigation Funding Agreement. We repaid our debt outstanding as of December 31, 2012 
with  borrowings  under  the  Credit  Agreement  and  the  Prudential  Loan  Agreement  entered  into  in  February  2013.  The 
aggregate maturity of the Credit Agreement and the Prudential Loan Agreement, is as follows: 2015 — $71.9 million and 
2021 — $100 million. 

In  addition,  as  a  REIT,  we  are  required  to  pay  dividends  equal  to  at  least  90%  of  our  taxable  income  in  order  to 
continue to qualify as a REIT. Our contractual obligations and commitments as of December 31, 2012 are summarized below

(c)  The actual timing of co-investing with our tenants in capital improvements is dependent on the timing of such capital 
improvement projects and the terms of our leases. We expect that substantially all of such credits will be issued within 
five years. 

Generally,  the  leases  with  our  tenants  are  “triple-net”  leases,  with  the  tenant  responsible  for  the  operations 
conducted at these properties and for the payment of taxes, maintenance, repair, insurance, environmental remediation and 
other operating expenses. 

We have no significant contractual obligations not fully recorded on our consolidated balance sheets or fully disclosed 
in  the  notes  to  our  consolidated  financial  statements.  We  have  no  off-balance  sheet  arrangements  as  defined  in  Item 
303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Exchange Act. 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  included  in  this  Annual  Report  on  Form  10-K  have  been  prepared  in 
conformity  with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States  of  America.  The  preparation  of  financial 
statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the 
amounts  reported  in  its  financial  statements.  Although  we  have  made  estimates,  judgments  and  assumptions  regarding 
future  uncertainties  relating  to  the  information  included  in  our  financial  statements,  giving  due  consideration  to  the 
accounting policies selected and materiality, actual results could differ from these estimates, judgments and assumptions 
and such differences could be material. 

Estimates, judgments and assumptions underlying the accompanying consolidated financial statements include, but are 
not  limited  to,  receivables,  deferred  rent  receivable,  income  under  direct  financing  leases,  environmental  remediation 
obligations,  real  estate,  depreciation  and  amortization,  impairment  of  long-lived  assets,  litigation,  accrued  liabilities, 
environmental remediation obligations, income taxes and allocation of the purchase price of properties acquired to the assets 
acquired and liabilities assumed. The information included in our financial statements that is based on estimates, judgments 
and  assumptions  is  subject  to  significant  change  and  is  adjusted  as  circumstances  change  and  as  the  uncertainties  become 
more clearly defined. 

Our  accounting policies  are described  in note  1  of Notes  to  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  in  “Item  8.  Financial 
Statements and Supplementary Data — Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements”. We believe that the more critical of our 
accounting policies relate to revenue recognition and deferred rent receivable and related reserves, impairment of long-lived 
assets, income taxes, environmental costs, allocation of the purchase price of properties acquired to the assets acquired and 
liabilities assumed and litigation as described below: 

Revenue recognition — We earn revenue primarily from operating leases with our tenants. We recognize income under 
leases with our tenants, on the straight-line method, which effectively recognizes contractual lease payments evenly over the 
current term of the leases. The present value of the difference between the fair market rent and the contractual rent for in-
place leases at the time properties are acquired is amortized into revenue from rental properties over the remaining lives of 
the  in-place  leases.  A  critical  assumption  in  applying  the  straight-line  accounting  method  is  that  the  tenant  will  make  all 
contractual lease payments during the current lease term and that the net deferred rent receivable of $12.4 million recorded as 
of December 31, 2012 will be collected when the payment is due, in accordance with the annual rent escalations provided for 
in  the  leases.  Historically  our  tenants,  other  than  Marketing,  with  leases  that  are  material  to  our  financial  results  have 
generally made rent payments when due. However, we may be required to reverse, or provide reserves for a portion of the 
recorded deferred rent receivable if it becomes apparent that the tenant may not make all of its contractual lease payments 
when due during the current term of the lease. The straight-line method requires that rental income related to those properties 
for which a reserve was specifically provided is effectively recognized in subsequent periods when payment is due under the 
contractual payment terms. (See “General — Marketing and the Master Lease” above for additional information.) 

Direct financing leases — Income under direct financing leases is included in revenues from rental properties and is 
recognized over the lease terms using the effective interest rate method which produces a constant periodic rate of return on 
the  net  investments  in  the  leased  properties.  Net  investment  in  direct  financing  leases  represents  the  investments  in  leased 
assets accounted for as direct financing leases. The investments are reduced by the receipt of lease payments, net of interest 
income earned and amortized over the life of the leases. 

40 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Impairment  of  long-lived  assets  —  Real  estate  assets  represent  “long-lived”  assets  for  accounting  purposes.  We 
review the recorded value of long-lived assets for impairment in value whenever any events or changes in circumstances 
indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. We may become aware of indicators of potentially 
impaired  assets  upon  tenant  or  landlord  lease  renewals,  upon  receipt  of  notices  of  potential  governmental  takings  and 
zoning issues, or upon other events that occur in the normal course of business that would cause us to review the operating 
results  of  the  property.  We  believe  our  real  estate  assets  are  not  carried  at  amounts  in  excess  of  their  estimated  net 
realizable fair value amounts. 

Income taxes — Our financial results generally do not reflect provisions for current or deferred federal income taxes 
since  we  elected  to  be  treated  as  a  REIT  under  the  federal  income  tax  laws  effective  January 1,  2001.  Our  intention  is  to 
operate in a manner that will allow us to continue to be treated as a REIT and, as a result, we do not expect to pay substantial 
corporate-level  federal  income  taxes.  Many  of  the  REIT  requirements;  however,  are  highly  technical  and  complex.  If  we 
were to fail to meet the requirements, we may be subject to federal income tax, excise taxes, penalties and interest or we may 
have to pay a deficiency dividend to eliminate any earnings and profits that were not distributed. Certain states do not follow 
the federal REIT rules and we have included provisions for these taxes in rental property expenses. 

Environmental remediation obligations — We provide for the estimated fair value of future environmental remediation 
obligations when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. (See “— 
Environmental Matters” below for additional information). Environmental liabilities net of related recoveries are measured 
based  on  their  expected  future  cash  flows  which  have  been  adjusted  for  inflation  and  discounted  to  present  value.  Since 
environmental  exposures  are  difficult  to  assess  and  estimate  and  knowledge  about  these  liabilities  is  not  known  upon  the 
occurrence of a single event, but rather is gained over a continuum of events, we believe that it is appropriate that our accrual 
estimates are adjusted as the remediation treatment progresses, as circumstances change and as environmental contingencies 
become more clearly defined and reasonably estimable. A critical assumption in accruing for these liabilities is that the state 
environmental laws and regulations will be administered and enforced in the future in a manner that is consistent with past 
practices. Environmental liabilities are estimated net of recoveries of environmental costs from state UST remediation funds, 
with  respect  to  past  and  future  spending  based  on  estimated  recovery  rates  developed  from  our  experience  with  the  funds 
when such recoveries are considered probable. A critical  assumption in accruing for these recoveries is that the state UST 
fund programs will be administered and funded in the future in a manner that is consistent with past practices and that future 
environmental spending will be eligible for reimbursement at historical rates under these programs. We accrue environmental 
liabilities  based  on  our  share  of  responsibility  as  defined  in  our  lease  contracts  with  our  tenants  and  under  various  other 
agreements  with  others  or  if  circumstances  indicate  that  the  counter-party  may  not  have  the  financial  resources  to  pay  its 
share of the costs. It is possible that our assumptions regarding the ultimate allocation method and share of responsibility that 
we used to allocate environmental liabilities may change, which may result in material adjustments to the amounts recorded 
for environmental litigation accruals and environmental remediation liabilities. We may ultimately be responsible to pay for 
environmental  liabilities  as  the  property  owner  if  our  tenants  or  other  counter-parties  fail  to  pay  them.  In  certain 
environmental  matters  the  effect  on  future  financial  results  is  not  subject  to  reasonable  estimation  because  considerable 
uncertainty exists both in terms of the probability of loss and the estimate of such loss. The ultimate liabilities resulting from 
such lawsuits and claims, if any, may be material to our results of operations in the period in which they are recognized. 

Litigation  —  Legal  fees  related  to  litigation  are  expensed  as  legal  services  are  performed.  We  provide  for  litigation 
reserves,  including  certain  environmental  litigation.  (See  “—  Environmental  Matters”  below  for  additional  information), 
when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and a reasonable estimate of the liability can be made. If the estimate of 
the liability can only be identified as a range, and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the 
minimum of the range is accrued for the liability. 

Allocation of the purchase price of properties acquired — Upon acquisition of real estate and leasehold interests, we 
estimate  the  fair  value  of  acquired  tangible  assets  (consisting  of  land,  buildings  and  improvements)  “as  if  vacant”  and 
identified intangible assets and liabilities (consisting of leasehold interests, above-market and below-market leases, in-place 
leases and tenant relationships) and assumed debt. Based on these estimates, we allocate the purchase price to the applicable 
assets and liabilities. 

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS 

General 

We  are  subject  to  numerous  existing  federal,  state  and  local  laws  and  regulations,  including  matters  relating  to  the 
protection of the environment such as the remediation of known contamination and the retirement and decommissioning or 
removal of long-lived assets including buildings containing hazardous materials, USTs and other equipment. Environmental 

41 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
costs are principally attributable to remediation costs which include installing, operating, maintaining and decommissioning 
remediation  systems,  monitoring  contamination  and  governmental  agency  reporting  incurred  in  connection  with 
contaminated  properties.  We  seek  reimbursement  from  state  UST  remediation  funds  related  to  these  environmental  costs 
where available. In July 2012, we purchased for $3.1 million a ten-year pollution legal liability insurance policy covering all 
of our properties for pre-existing unknown environmental liabilities and new environmental events. The policy has a $50.0 
million aggregate limit and is subject to various self-insured retentions and other conditions and limitations. Our intention in 
purchasing this policy is to obtain protection predominantly for significant events. No assurances can be given that we will 
obtain  a  net  financial  benefit  from  this  investment.  Historically  we  did  not  maintain  pollution  legal  liability  insurance  to 
protect from potential future claims related to known and unknown environmental liabilities. 

We  enter  into  leases  and  various  other  agreements  which  allocate  responsibility  for  known  and  unknown 
environmental  liabilities  by  establishing  the  percentage  and  method  of  allocating  responsibility  between  the  parties.  In 
accordance  with  the  leases  with  certain  tenants,  we  have  agreed  to  bring  the  leased  properties  with  known  environmental 
contamination  to  within  applicable  standards,  and  to  either  regulatory  or  contractual  closure  (“Closure”).  Generally,  upon 
achieving Closure at each individual property, our environmental liability under the lease for that property will be satisfied 
and future remediation obligations will be the responsibility of our tenant. 

Generally, our tenants are directly responsible to pay for: (i) the retirement and decommissioning or removal of USTs 
and other equipment, (ii) remediation of environmental contamination they cause and compliance with various environmental 
laws and regulations as the operators of our properties, and (iii) environmental liabilities allocated to them under the terms of 
our leases and various other agreements. We are contingently liable for these obligations in the event that our tenants do not 
satisfy  their  responsibilities.  Under  the  Master  Lease,  Marketing  was  responsible  to  pay  for  the  retirement  and 
decommissioning  or  removal  of  USTs  at  the  end  of  their  useful  life  or  earlier  if  circumstances  warranted  as  well  as  all 
environmental  liabilities  discovered  during  the  term  of  the  Master  Lease,  including:  (i)  remediation  of  environmental 
contamination  Marketing  caused  and  compliance  with  various  environmental  laws  and  regulations  as  the  operator  of  our 
properties, and (ii) known and unknown environmental liabilities allocated to Marketing under the terms of the Master Lease 
and various other agreements with us relating to Marketing’s business and the properties it leased from us (collectively the 
“Marketing  Environmental  Liabilities”).  A  liability  has  not  been  accrued  for  obligations  that  are  the  responsibility  of  our 
tenants  (other  than  the  Marketing  Environmental  Liabilities  accrued  in  the  fourth  quarter  of  2011)  based  on  our  tenants’ 
history of paying such obligations and/or our assessment of their financial ability and intent to pay their share of such costs. 
However, there can be no assurance that our assessments are correct or that our tenants who have paid their obligations in the 
past will continue to do so. 

In the fourth quarter of 2011, since we could no longer assume that Marketing would be able to meet its environmental 
remediation  obligations  at  246  properties  and  its  obligations  to  remove  all  underground  storage  tanks  at  the  end  of  their 
useful  life  or  earlier  if  circumstances  warrant,  we  accrued  $47.9  million  as  the  aggregate  Marketing  Environmental 
Liabilities. In conjunction with recording the Marketing Environmental Liabilities, we increased the carrying value for each 
of the properties by the amount of the related estimated environmental obligation and simultaneously recorded impairment 
charges  aggregating  $17.0  million  where  the  accumulation  of  asset  retirement  costs  increased  the  carrying  value  of  the 
property above its estimated fair value. 

As  part  of  certain  triple-net  leases  whose  term  commenced  through  December  31,  2012,  we  transferred  title  of  the 
USTs to our tenants and the obligation to pay for the retirement and decommissioning or removal of USTs at the end of their 
useful life or earlier if circumstances warranted was fully or partially transferred to our new tenants. Accordingly, during the 
year  ended  December  31,  2012,  we  removed  $11.2  million  of  asset  retirement  obligations  and  $9.8  million  of  net  asset 
retirement  costs  related  to  USTs  from  our  balance  sheet.  The  net  amount  of  $1.4  million  is  recorded  as  deferred  rental 
revenue and will be recognized as additional revenues from rental properties over the terms of the various leases. (See note 2 
for additional information.) 

It is possible that our assumptions regarding the ultimate allocation method and share of responsibility that we used to 
allocate  environmental  liabilities  may  change,  which  may  result  in  material  adjustments  to  the  amounts  recorded  for 
environmental  litigation  accruals  and  environmental  remediation  liabilities.  We  are  required  to  accrue  for  environmental 
liabilities that we believe are allocable to others under various other agreements if we determine that it is probable that the 
counterparty  will  not  meet  its  environmental  obligations.  The  ultimate  resolution  of  these  matters  could  cause  a  material 
adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends or stock price. 

42 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The estimated future costs for known environmental remediation requirements are accrued when it is probable that a 
liability has been incurred and a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The accrued liability is the aggregate of the 
best  estimate  of  the  fair  value  of  cost  for  each  component  of  the  liability  net  of  estimated  recoveries  from  state  UST 
remediation funds considering estimated recovery rates developed from prior experience with the funds. 

Environmental  exposures  are  difficult  to  assess  and  estimate  for  numerous  reasons,  including  the  extent  of 
contamination, alternative treatment methods that may be applied, location of the property which subjects it to differing local 
laws  and  regulations  and  their  interpretations,  as  well  as  the  time  it  takes  to  remediate  contamination.  In  developing  our 
liability  for  estimated  environmental  remediation  obligations  on  a  property  by  property  basis,  we  consider  among  other 
things,  enacted  laws  and  regulations,  assessments  of  contamination  and  surrounding  geology,  quality  of  information 
available,  currently  available  technologies  for  treatment,  alternative  methods  of  remediation  and  prior  experience. 
Environmental accruals are based on estimates which are subject to significant change, and are adjusted as the remediation 
treatment  progresses,  as  circumstances  change  and  as  environmental  contingencies  become  more  clearly  defined  and 
reasonably estimable. 

Environmental remediation obligations are initially measured at fair value based on their expected future net cash 
flows which have been adjusted for inflation and discounted to present value. As of December31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, 
we  had  accrued  $46.2  million,  $57.7  million  and  $10.9  million,  respectively,  as  our  best  estimate  of  the  fair  value  of 
reasonably estimable environmental remediation obligations net of estimated recoveries and obligations to remove USTs. 
Environmental  liabilities  are  accreted  for  the  change  in  present  value  due  to  the  passage  of  time  and,  accordingly,  $3.2 
million, $0.9 million and $0.8 million of net accretion expense was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 
and  2010,  respectively,  which  is  included  in  environmental  expenses.  In  addition,  during  the  year  ended  December  31, 
2012 we recorded credits aggregating $4.2 million to environmental expenses and earnings from discontinued operating 
activities  where  decreases  in  estimated  remediation  costs  exceeded  the  depreciated  carrying  value  of  previously 
capitalized asset retirement costs. Environmental expenses also include project management fees, legal fees and provisions 
for environmental litigation loss reserves. 

During the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we increased the carrying value of certain of our properties by 
$5.7  million  and  $47.9  million,  respectively,  due  to  increases  in  estimated  remediation  costs.  We  simultaneously  record 
impairment  charges  where  the  increased  carrying  value  of  the  property  exceeds  its  estimated  fair  value.  Capitalized  asset 
retirement costs are being depreciated over the estimated remaining life of the underground storage tank, a ten year period if 
the  increase  in  carrying  value  related  to  environmental  remediation  obligations  or  such  shorter  period  if  circumstances 
warrant,  such  as  the  remaining  lease  term  for  properties  we  lease  from  others.  Depreciation  and  amortization  expense 
included in our consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 includes $5.4 million 
and $0.9 million, respectively, of depreciation related to capitalized asset retirement costs of $23.5 million and $35.3 million 
as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. 

We cannot predict what environmental legislation or regulations may be enacted in the future or how existing laws or 
regulations will be administered or interpreted with respect to products or activities to which they have not previously been 
applied.  We  cannot  predict  if  state  UST  fund  programs  will  be  administered  and  funded  in  the  future  in  a  manner  that  is 
consistent with past practices and if future environmental spending will continue to be eligible for reimbursement at historical 
recovery  rates  under  these  programs.  Compliance  with  more  stringent  laws  or  regulations,  as  well  as  more  vigorous 
enforcement policies of the regulatory agencies or stricter interpretation of existing laws, which may develop in the future, 
could  have  an  adverse  effect  on  our  financial  position,  or  that  of  our  tenants,  and  could  require  substantial  additional 
expenditures for future remediation. 

In view of the uncertainties associated with environmental expenditure contingencies, we are unable to estimate ranges 
in excess of the amount accrued with any certainty; however, we believe it is possible that the fair value of future actual net 
expenditures  could  be  substantially  higher  than  amounts  currently  recorded  by  us.  Adjustments  to  accrued  liabilities  for 
environmental remediation obligations will be reflected in our financial statements as they become probable and a reasonable 
estimate  of  fair  value  can  be  made.  Future  environmental  expenses  could  cause  a  material  adverse  effect  on  our  business, 
financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends or stock price. 

43 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Environmental litigation 

We  are  subject  to  various  legal  proceedings  and  claims  which  arise  in  the  ordinary  course  of  our  business.  As  of 
December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had accrued $3.6 million and $4.2 million, respectively, for certain of these 
matters which we believe were appropriate based on information then currently available. It is possible that our assumptions 
regarding  the  ultimate  allocation  method  and  share of responsibility  that  we  used  to allocate  environmental  liabilities  may 
change, which may result in our providing an accrual, or adjustments to the amounts recorded, for environmental litigation 
accruals.  Matters  related  to  the  our  Newark,  New  Jersey  Terminal  and  Lower  Passaic  River  and  the  MTBE  multi-district 
litigation case, in particular, could cause a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, 
liquidity, ability to pay dividends or stock price. (See “Item 3. Legal Proceedings” for additional information with respect to 
these and other pending environmental lawsuits and claims.) 

Matters related to our Newark, New Jersey Terminal and the Lower Passaic River 

In  September  2003,  we  received  a  directive  (the  “Directive”)  from  the  State  of  New  Jersey  Department  of 
Environmental Protection (the “NJDEP”) notifying us that we are one of approximately 66 potentially responsible parties for 
natural resource damages resulting from discharges of hazardous substances into the Lower Passaic River. The Directive calls 
for an assessment of the natural resources that have been injured by the discharges into the Lower Passaic River and interim 
compensatory restoration  for  the  injured  natural  resources.  There has  been  no  material  activity  with  respect  to  the NJDEP 
Directive since early after its issuance. The responsibility for the alleged damages, the aggregate cost to remediate the Lower 
Passaic  River,  the  amount  of  natural  resource  damages  and  the  method  of  allocating  such  amounts  among  the  potentially 
responsible  parties  have  not  been  determined.  Effective  May 2007,  the  United  States  Environmental  Protection  Agency 
(“EPA”)  entered  into  an  Administrative  Settlement  Agreement  and  Order  on  Consent  (“AOC”)  with  over  70  parties 
comprising  a Cooperating  Parties  Group (“CPG”) (many  of whom  are  also  named  in  the  Directive) who have  collectively 
agreed to perform a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study (“RI/FS”) for the Lower Passaic River. We are a party to 
the  AOC  and  are  a  member  of  the  CPG.  The  RI/FS  is  intended  to  address  the  investigation  and  evaluation  of  alternative 
remedial actions with respect to alleged damages to the Lower Passaic River, and is scheduled to be completed in or about 
2015. On  June  18, 2012,  all members  of  the  CPG  except Occidental  Chemical  Corporation  (“Occidental”)  entered into  an 
Administrative  Settlement  Agreement  and  Order  on  Consent  (“10.9  AOC”)  to  perform  certain  remediation  activities, 
including removal and capping of sediments at the river mile 10.9 area and certain testing. Similar to the RI/FS work, the 
CPG  entered  into  an  interim  allocation  for  the  costs  of  the  river  mile  10.9  work.  The  EPA  issued  a  Unilateral  Order  to 
Occidental directing Occidental to participate and contribute to the cost of the river mile 10.9 work and discussions regarding 
Occidental’s participation in the river mile 10.9 work are ongoing. Concurrently, the EPA is preparing a proposed Focused 
Feasibility  Study  (“FFS”)  that  the  EPA  claims  will  address  sediment  issues  in  the  lower  eight  miles  of  the  Lower  Passaic 
River.  The  RI/FS  and  10.9  AOC  do  not  resolve  liability  issues  for  remedial  work  or  restoration  of,  or  compensation  for, 
natural resource damages to the Lower Passaic River, which are not known at this time. 

In  a  related  action,  in  December 2005,  the  State  of  New  Jersey  through  various  state  agencies  brought  suit  against 
certain companies which the State alleges are responsible for various categories of past and future damages resulting from 
discharges  of  hazardous  substances  to  the  Passaic  River.  In  February 2009,  certain  of  these  defendants  filed  third  party 
complaints  against  approximately  300  additional  parties,  including  us,  seeking  contribution  for  such  parties’  proportionate 
share of response costs, cleanup and other damages, based on their relative contribution to pollution of the Passaic River and 
adjacent  bodies  of  water.  We  believe  that  ChevronTexaco  is  contractually  obligated  to  indemnify  us,  pursuant  to  an 
indemnification  agreement,  for  most  if  not  all  of  the  conditions  at  the  property  identified  by  the  NJDEP  and  the  EPA. 
Accordingly, our ultimate legal and financial liability, if any, cannot be estimated with any certainty at this time. 

MTBE Litigation 

During 2011, we were defending against one remaining lawsuit of many brought by or on behalf of private and public 
water providers and governmental agencies. These cases alleged (and, as described below with respect to one remaining case, 
continue to allege) various theories of liability due to contamination of groundwater with methyl tertiary butyl ether (a fuel 
derived  from  methanol,  commonly  referred  to  as  “MTBE”)  as  the  basis  for  claims  seeking  compensatory  and  punitive 
damages, and name as defendant approximately 50 petroleum refiners, manufacturers, distributors and retailers of MTBE, or 
gasoline  containing  MTBE.  During  2010,  we  agreed  to,  and  subsequently  paid,  $1.7  million  to  settle  two  plaintiff  classes 
covering 52 pending cases. Presently, we remain a defendant in one MTBE case involving multiple locations throughout the 
State of New Jersey brought by various governmental agencies of the State of New Jersey, including the NJDEP. 

44 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we maintained a litigation reserve relating to the remaining MTBE 
case in an amount which we believe was appropriate based on information then currently available. However, we are unable 
to estimate with certainty our liability for the case involving the State of New Jersey as there remains uncertainty as to the 
accuracy of the allegations in this case as they relate to us, our defenses to the claims, our rights to indemnification, and the 
aggregate possible amount of damages for which we may be held liable. 

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk 

Prior to April 2006, when we entered into a swap agreement with JPMorgan Chase, N.A. (the “Swap Agreement”), we 
had not used derivative financial or commodity instruments for trading, speculative or any other purpose, and had not entered 
into  any  instruments  to  hedge  our  exposure  to  interest  rate  risk.  The  Swap  Agreement  expired  on  June 30,  2011  and  we 
currently do not intend to enter into another swap agreement. We do not have any foreign operations, and are therefore not 
exposed to foreign currency exchange rate. 

Total floating interest rate borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 2012 under the prior credit agreement and the 
prior term loan agreement, which were terminated and repaid on February 25, 2013, were $150.3 million and $22.0 million, 
respectively, bearing interest at a weighted-average rate of 3.28% per annum. The weighted-average effective rate was based 
on (i) $150.3 million of LIBOR rate borrowings outstanding under the prior credit agreement floating at market rates plus a 
margin  of  3.00%,  and  (ii) $22.0  million  of  LIBOR  based  borrowings  outstanding  under  the  prior  term  loan  agreement 
floating at market rates (subject to a 30 day LIBOR floor of 0.40%) plus a margin of 3.10%. 

We  are  exposed  to  interest  rate  risk,  primarily  as  a  result  of  our  $175.0 million  senior  secured  revolving  credit 
agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) entered into on February 25, 2013 with a group of commercial banks led by JPMorgan 
Chase  Bank, N.A. (the  “Bank  Syndicate”),  which  is  scheduled  to  mature  in August 2015.  The  Credit  Agreement  allocates 
$25.0 million of the total Bank Syndicate commitment to a term loan and $150.0 million to a revolving credit facility. Subject 
to  the  terms  of  the  Credit  Agreement,  we  have  the  option  to  increase  by  $50.0  million  the  amount  of  the  revolving  credit 
facility to $200.0 million. The Credit Agreement permits borrowings at an interest rate equal to the sum of a base rate plus a 
margin  of  1.50%  to  2.00%  or  a  LIBOR  rate  plus  a  margin  of  2.50%  to  3.00%  based  on  our  leverage  at  the  end  of  each 
quarterly reporting period. We use borrowings under the Credit Agreement to finance acquisitions and for general corporate 
purposes. Borrowings outstanding at floating interest rates under the Credit Agreement subsequent to the refinancing were 
approximately $72.0 million. 

We  manage  our  exposure  to  interest  rate  risk  by  minimizing,  to  the  extent  feasible,  our  overall  borrowing  and 
monitoring available financing alternatives. Our interest rate risk as of December 31, 2012 remained the same as compared to 
December 31, 2011. We reduced our interest rate risk on February 25, 2013 by repaying floating interest rate debt with the 
proceeds of a $100 million senior secured long-term loan agreement with the Prudential Insurance Company of America (the 
“Prudential  Loan  Agreement”), which  matures  in  February  2021. The Prudential  Loan  Agreement  bears  interest at  6.00%. 
The Prudential Loan Agreement does not provide for scheduled reductions in the principal balance prior to its maturity. Our 
interest  rate  risk  may  materially  change  in  the  future  if  we  seek  other  sources  of  debt  or  equity  capital  or  refinance  our 
outstanding debt. 

Based on our average outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement projected at approximately $72.0 million for 
2013, an increase in market interest rates of 0.50% effective February 25, 2013 for 2013 would decrease our 2013 net income 
and cash flows by $0.3 million. This amount was determined by calculating the effect of a hypothetical interest rate change 
on our borrowings floating at market rates, and assumes that the approximately $72.0 million outstanding borrowings under 
the  Credit  Agreement  is  indicative  of  our  future  average  floating  interest  rate  borrowings  for  2013  before  considering 
additional borrowings required for future acquisitions or repayment of outstanding borrowings from proceeds of future equity 
offerings.  The  calculation  also  assumes  that  there  are  no  other  changes  in  our  financial  structure  or  the  terms  of  our 
borrowings. Our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates will increase or decrease in the future with increases or decreases in 
the outstanding amount under our Credit Agreement and with increases or decreases in amounts outstanding under borrowing 
agreements entered into with interest rates floating at market rates. 

In  order  to  minimize  our  exposure  to  credit  risk  associated  with  financial  instruments,  we  place  our  temporary  cash 
investments with high-credit-quality institutions. Temporary cash investments, if any, are currently held in an overnight bank 
time deposit with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.

GETTY REALTY CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

Basis of Presentation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Getty Realty Corp. and its wholly-
owned subsidiaries. We are a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) specializing in the ownership, leasing and financing of 
retail  motor  fuel  and  convenience  store  properties  and  petroleum  distribution  terminals.  The  accompanying  consolidated 
financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of 
America (“GAAP”). We manage and evaluate our operations as a single segment. All significant intercompany accounts and 
transactions have been eliminated. 

Use  of  Estimates,  Judgments  and  Assumptions:  The  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  in  conformity  with 
GAAP, which requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets 
and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of  contingent  assets  and  liabilities  at  the  date  of  the  financial  statements  and  revenues  and 
expenses  during  the  period  reported.  Estimates,  judgments  and  assumptions  underlying  the  accompanying  consolidated 
financial statements include, but are not limited to, receivables, deferred rent receivable, net investment in direct financing 
leases,  environmental  remediation  costs,  real  estate,  depreciation  and  amortization,  impairment  of  long-lived  assets, 
litigation, environmental remediation obligations, accrued liabilities, income taxes and the allocation of the purchase price of 
properties acquired to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. 

Subsequent  events:  We  evaluated  subsequent  events  and  transactions  for  potential  recognition  or  disclosure  in  our 

consolidated financial statements. 

Fair Value Hierarchy: The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make 
estimates of fair value that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of assets and liabilities at the 
date  of  the  financial  statements  and  revenues  and  expenses  during  the  period  reported  using  a  hierarchy  (the  “Fair  Value 
Hierarchy”) that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The Fair Value Hierarchy gives 
the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and 
the  lowest  priority  to  unobservable  inputs  (Level  3  measurements).  The  levels  of  the  Fair  Value  Hierarchy  are  as  follows: 
“Level  1”-inputs  that  reflect  unadjusted  quoted  prices  in  active  markets  for  identical  assets  or  liabilities  that  we  have  the 
ability  to  access  at  the  measurement  date;  “Level  2”-inputs  other  than  quoted  prices  that  are  observable  for  the  asset  or 
liability either directly or indirectly, including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active; and “Level 3”-inputs that 
are unobservable. Certain types of assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value either on a recurring or non-recurring basis. 
Assets required or elected to be marked-to-market and reported at fair value every reporting period are valued on a recurring 
basis. Other assets not required to be recorded at fair value every period may be recorded at fair value if a specific provision 
or other impairment is recorded within the period to mark the carrying value of the asset to market as of the reporting date. 
Such assets are valued on a non-recurring basis. We have a receivable that is measured at fair value on a recurring basis using 
Level 3-inputs of $2,972,000 as of December 31, 2012. Due to the subjectivity inherent in the internal valuation techniques 
used in estimating fair value, the amount ultimately received from this receivable may vary significantly from our estimate. 
We  have  certain  real  estate  assets  that  are  measured  at  fair  value  on  a  non-recurring  basis  using  Level  3-inputs  as  of 
December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 of $4,967,000 and $19,214,000, respectively, where impairment charges have 
been recorded. Due to the subjectivity inherent in the internal valuation techniques used in estimating fair value, the amounts 
realized from the sale of such assets may vary significantly from these estimates. 

The  following  summarizes  as  of  December  31,  2012  our  assets  and  liabilities  measured  at  fair  value  on  a  recurring 

basis by level within the Fair Value Hierarchy:

Discontinued Operations: We report as discontinued operations approximately 111 properties which meet the criteria 
to  be  accounted  for  as  held  for  sale  in  accordance  with  GAAP  as  of  the  end  of  the  current  period  and  certain  properties 
disposed of during the periods presented. Discontinued operations, including gains and losses, impairment charges and the 
operating  results  for  properties  disposed  of  in  2012,  2011  and  2010  and  impairment  charges  and  operating  results  of 
properties  classified  as  held  for  sale,  are  included  in  a  separate  component  of  income  on  the  consolidated  statement  of 
operations.  The  operating  results  and  impairment  charges  of  such  properties  for  the  years  ended  2011  and  2010  have  also 
been reclassified to discontinued operations to conform to the 2012 presentation. The properties currently being marketed for 
sale have a net carrying value aggregating $25,340,000 and are included in real estate held for sale, net in our consolidated 
balance sheets. The revenue from rental properties, impairment charges, other operating expenses and gains from dispositions 
of real estate related to these properties are as follows:

Real Estate: Real estate assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Upon acquisition of 
real  estate  and  leasehold  interests, we  estimate  the  fair value  of  acquired  tangible  assets  (consisting of  land, buildings  and 
improvements) “as if vacant” and identified intangible assets and liabilities (consisting of leasehold interests, above-market 
and below-market leases, in-place leases and tenant relationships) and assumed debt. Based on these estimates, we record the 
applicable assets and liabilities at their fair value. When real estate assets are sold or retired, the cost and related accumulated 
depreciation  and  amortization  is  eliminated  from  the  respective  accounts  and  any  gain  or  loss  is  credited  or  charged  to 
income. We evaluate real estate sale transactions where we provide seller financing to determine sale and gain recognition in 
accordance with GAAP. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to income when incurred. When accounting 
for business combinations, the amounts recorded for the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for above-market 
and below-market leases, leasehold interests as lessee and capital lease obligations are non-cash transactions which do not 
appear on the face of the consolidated statements of cash flows. (See note 11 for additional information regarding property 
acquisitions.) 

Depreciation  and  Amortization:  Depreciation  of  real  estate  is  computed  on  the  straight-line  method  based  upon  the 
estimated useful lives of the assets, which generally range from 16 to 25 years for buildings and improvements, or the term of 
the  lease  if  shorter.  Asset  retirement  costs  are  depreciated  over  the  remaining  useful  lives  of  underground  storage  tanks 
(“USTs” or “UST”) or 10 years for asset retirement costs related to environmental remediation obligations, which costs are 
attributable  to  the  group  of  assets  identified  at  a  property.  Leasehold  interests,  in-place  leases  and  tenant  relationships  are 
amortized over the remaining term of the underlying lease. 

Impairment  of  Long-Lived  Assets  and  Long-Lived  Assets  to  Be  Disposed  Of:  Assets  are  written  down  to  fair  value 
when  events  and  circumstances  indicate  that  the  assets  might  be  impaired  and  the  projected  undiscounted  cash  flows 
estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amount of those assets. We review and adjust as necessary 
our  depreciation  estimates  and  method  when  long-lived  assets  are  tested  for  recoverability.  Assets  held  for  disposal  are 
written down to fair value less estimated disposition costs.

We recorded non-cash impairment charges aggregating $13,942,000 and $20,226,000 for the years ended December 31, 
2012  and  2011,  respectively,  in  continuing  operations  and  in  discontinued  operations.  We  record  non-cash  impairment 
charges and reduce the carrying amount of properties held for use to fair value where the carrying amount of the property 
exceeded the projected undiscounted cash flows expected to be received during the assumed holding period which includes 
the  estimated  sales  value  expected  to  be  received  at  disposition.  We  record  non-cash  impairment  charges  and  reduce  the 
carrying amount of properties held for sale to fair value less disposal costs. The non-cash impairment charges recorded during 
the year ended December 31, 2012 were attributable to reductions in our estimates of value for properties held for sale and the 
accumulation  of  asset  retirement  costs  as  a  result  of  an  increase  in  estimated  environmental  liabilities  which  increased  the 
carrying  value  of  certain  properties  in  excess  of  their  fair  value.  Impairment  charges  recorded  during  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2011 were attributable to reductions in our estimates of value for properties marketed for sale, reductions in the 
assumed holding period used to test for impairment and the accumulation of asset retirement costs as a result of an increase in 
estimated environmental liabilities which increased the carrying value of certain properties in excess of their fair value. The 
estimated fair value of real estate is based on the price that would be received to sell the property in an orderly transaction 
between  market  participants  at  the  measurement  date.  The  internal  valuation  techniques  that  we  used  included  discounted 
cash  flow  analysis,  an  income  capitalization  approach  on  prevailing  or  earnings  multiples  applied  to  earnings  from  the 
property, analysis of recent comparable lease and sales transactions, actual leasing or sale negotiations, bona fide purchase 
offers received from third parties and/or consideration of the amount that currently would be required to replace the asset, as 
adjusted for obsolescence. In general, we consider multiple internal valuation techniques when measuring the fair value of a 
property, all of which are based on unobservable inputs and assumptions that are classified within Level 3 of the fair value 
hierarchy.  These  unobservable  inputs  include  assumed  holding  periods  ranging  up  to  15  years,  assumed  average  rent 
increases  ranging  up  to  2.0%  annually,  income  capitalized  at  a  rate  of  8.0%  and  cash  flows  discounted  at  a  rate  of  7.0%. 
These  assessments  have  a  direct  impact  on  our  net  income  because  recording  an  impairment  loss  results  in  an  immediate 
negative  adjustment  to  net  income.  The  evaluation  of  anticipated  cash  flows  is  highly  subjective  and  is  based  in  part  on 
assumptions  regarding  future  rental  rates  and  operating  expenses  that  could  differ  materially  from  actual  results  in  future 
periods. Where properties held for use have been identified as having a potential for sale, additional judgments are required 
related to the determination as to the appropriate period over which the projected undiscounted cash flows should include the 
operating cash flows and the amount included as the estimated residual value. This requires significant judgment. In some 
cases,  the  results  of  whether  impairment  is  indicated  are  sensitive  to  changes  in  assumptions  input  into  the  estimates, 
including the holding period until expected sale. 

Cash  and  Cash  Equivalents:  We  consider  highly  liquid  investments  purchased  with  an  original  maturity  of  3  (three) 

months or less to be cash equivalents. 

Notes and Mortgages Receivable: Notes and mortgages receivables consist of loans originated by us related to seller 
financing  and  funding  provided  to  two  tenants  in  conjunction  with  properties  acquired  in  2011.  Notes  and  mortgages 
receivable are recorded at stated principal amounts. We evaluate the collectability of both interest and principal on each loan 
to determine whether it is impaired. A loan is considered to be impaired when, based upon current information and events, it 
is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due under the existing contractual terms. When a loan is considered 
to  be  impaired,  the  amount  of  loss  is  calculated  by  comparing  the  recorded  investment  to  the  fair  value  determined  by 
discounting the expected future cash flows at the loan’s effective interest rate or to the fair value of the underlying collateral 
if the loan is collateralized. Interest income on performing loans is accrued as earned. Interest income on impaired loans is 
recognized on a cash basis. We do not provide for an additional allowance for loan losses based on the grouping of loans as 
we believe the characteristics of the loans are not sufficiently similar to allow an evaluation of these loans as a group for a 
possible loan loss allowance. As such, all of our loans are evaluated individually for impairment purposes. 

Deferred  Rent  Receivable  and  Revenue  Recognition:  We  earn  rental  income  under  operating  and  direct  financing 
leases with tenants. Minimum lease payments from operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of 
the leases. The cumulative difference between lease revenue recognized under this method and the contractual lease payment 
terms  is  recorded  as  deferred  rent  receivable  on  the  consolidated  balance  sheet.  We  provide  reserves  for  a  portion  of  the 
recorded deferred rent receivable if circumstances indicate that it is not reasonable to assume that the tenant will make all of 
its  contractual lease  payments  when  due during  the  current  term  of  the  lease.  The  straight-line  method  requires  that  rental 
income  related  to  those  properties  for  which  a  reserve  was  provided  is  effectively  recognized  in  subsequent  periods  when 
payment is due under the contractual payment terms. Lease termination fees are recognized as rental income when earned 
upon the termination of a tenant’s lease and relinquishment of space in which we have no further obligation to the tenant. The 
present  value  of  the  difference  between  the  fair  market  rent  and  the  contractual  rent  for  above-market  and  below-market 
leases at the time properties are acquired is amortized into revenue from rental properties over the remaining lives of the in-
place leases. 

53 

 
 
 
 
Direct  Financing  Leases:  Income  under  direct  financing  leases  is  included  in  revenues  from  rental  properties  and  is 
recognized over the lease terms using the effective interest rate method which produces a constant periodic rate of return on 
the  net  investments  in  the  leased  properties.  Net  investment  in  direct  financing  leases  represents  the  investments  in  leased 
assets accounted for as direct financing leases. The investments in direct financing leases are increased for interest income 
earned and amortized over the life of the leases and reduced by the receipt of lease payments. 

Environmental  Remediation  Obligations:  The  estimated  future  costs  for  known  environmental  remediation 
requirements are accrued when it is probable that a liability has been incurred, including legal obligations associated with the 
retirement of tangible long-lived assets if the asset retirement obligation results from the normal operation of those assets and 
a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. Environmental remediation obligations are estimated based on the level and 
impact of contamination at each property. The accrued liability is the aggregate of the best estimate of the fair value of cost 
for each component of the liability. The accrued liability is net of recoveries of environmental costs from state underground 
storage tank (“UST” or “USTs”) remediation funds, with respect to both past and future environmental spending based on 
estimated recovery rates developed from prior experience with the funds. Net environmental liabilities are currently measured 
based on their expected future cash flows which have been adjusted for inflation and discounted to present value. We accrue 
for environmental liabilities that we believe are allocable to other potentially responsible parties if it becomes probable that 
the other parties will not pay their environmental remediation obligations. 

Litigation:  Legal  fees  related  to  litigation  are  expensed  as  legal  services  are  performed.  We  provide  for  litigation 
reserves, including certain litigation related to environmental matters, when it is probable that a liability has been incurred 
and a reasonable estimate of the liability can be made. If the estimate of the liability can only be identified as a range, and no 
amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the minimum of the range is accrued for the liability. We 
accrue our share of environmental liabilities based on our assumptions of the ultimate allocation method and share that will 
be used when determining our share of responsibility. 

Income  Taxes:  We  and  our  subsidiaries  file  a  consolidated  federal  income  tax  return.  Effective  January 1,  2001,  we 
elected to qualify, and believe we are operating so as to qualify, as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, we 
generally will not be subject to federal income tax on qualifying REIT income, provided that distributions to our shareholders 
equal  at  least  the  amount of our  taxable  income  as  defined under  the Internal  Revenue  Code. We accrue for uncertain  tax 
matters when appropriate. The accrual for uncertain tax positions is adjusted as circumstances change and as the uncertainties 
become more clearly defined, such as when audits are settled or exposures expire. Although tax returns for the years 2009, 
2010 and 2011, and tax returns which will be filed for the year ended 2012 remain open to examination by federal and state 
tax  jurisdictions  under  the  respective  statute  of  limitations,  we  have  not  currently  identified  any  uncertain  tax  positions 
related to those years and, accordingly, have not accrued for uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2012 or 2011. 

Interest  Expense  and  Interest  Rate  Swap  Agreement:  In  April  2006  we  entered  into  an  interest  rate  swap  agreement 
with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as the counterparty, designated and qualifying as a cash flow hedge, to reduce our variable 
interest rate risk by effectively fixing a portion of the interest rate for existing debt and anticipated refinancing transactions. 
We have not entered into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The fair value of the interest rate swap 
obligation  was  based  upon  the  estimated  amounts  we  would  receive  or  pay  to  terminate  the  contract  and  was  determined 
using  an  interest  rate  market  pricing  model.  Changes  in  the  fair  value  of  the  agreement  were  included  in  the  consolidated 
statements  of  comprehensive  income  and  would  have  been  recorded  in  the  consolidated  statements  of  operations  if  the 
agreement was not an effective cash flow hedge for accounting purposes. 

Earnings  per  Common  Share:  Basic  earnings  per  common  share  gives  effect,  utilizing  the  two-class  method,  to  the 
potential  dilution  from  the  issuance  of  common  shares  in  settlement  of  restricted  stock  units  (“RSUs”  or  “RSU”)  which 
provide  for  non-forfeitable  dividend  equivalents  equal  to  the  dividends  declared  per  common  share.  Basic  earnings  per 
common share is computed by dividing net earnings less dividend equivalents attributable to RSUs by the weighted-average 
number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share, also gives effect to the potential 
dilution from the exercise of stock options utilizing the treasury stock method.

Stock-Based  Compensation: Compensation cost  for  our  stock-based  compensation plans  using  the  fair  value  method 
was $757,000, $643,000 and $480,000 for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and is included 
in general and administrative expense. The impact of the accounting for stock-based compensation is, and is expected to be, 
immaterial to our financial position and results of operations. 

Reclassifications:  Certain  amounts  related  to  discontinued  operations  for  2011  and  2010  have  been  reclassified  to 

conform to the 2012 presentation. 

New Accounting Pronouncement: In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, "Fair 
Value  Measurements  and  Disclosures  (Topic  820)  -  Amendments  to  Achieve  Common  Fair  Value  Measurement  and 
Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS" ("ASU 2011-04"). ASU 2011-04 clarifies the application of existing fair 
value  measurement  requirements,  changes  certain  principles  related  to  measuring  fair  value  and  requires  additional 
disclosures  about  fair  value  measurements.  Required  disclosures  are  expanded  under  the  new  guidance,  especially  for  fair 
value measurements that are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, for which quantitative information about 
the unobservable inputs used, and a narrative description of the valuation processes in place and sensitivity of recurring Level 
3 measurements to changes in unobservable inputs is required. Entities will also be required to disclose the categorization by 
level of the fair value hierarchy for items that are not measured at fair value in the balance sheet but for which the fair value 
is required to be disclosed. ASU 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, and 
is applied prospectively. The adoption of this guidance in 2012 resulted in expanded disclosures on fair value measurements 
but did not have an impact to our measurements of fair value. 

2. LEASES 

Our business model is to lease our properties on a triple-net basis primarily to petroleum distributors and to a lesser 
extent to individual operators. Our tenants operate our properties directly or sublet our properties to operators who operate 
their gas stations, convenience stores, automotive repair service facilities or other businesses at our properties. These tenants 
are  responsible  for  the  operations  conducted  at  these  properties.  Our  triple-net  tenants  are  generally  responsible  for  the 
payment of all taxes, maintenance, repairs, insurance and other operating expenses relating to our properties. Substantially all 
of our tenants’ financial results depend on the sale of refined petroleum products and rental income from their subtenants. As 
a result, our tenants’ financial results are highly dependent on the performance of the petroleum marketing industry, which is 
highly  competitive  and  subject  to  volatility.  In  those  instances  where  we  determine  that  the  best  use  for  a  property  is  no 
longer as a gas station, we will seek an alternative tenant or buyer for the property. As of December 31, 2012, approximately 
20 of our properties are leased for uses such as quick serve restaurants, automobile sales and other retail purposes, excluding 
approximately  40  properties  previously  subject  to  the  Master  Lease  with  Marketing  which  are  currently  held  for  sale  and 
which have temporary occupancies. Our 1,081 properties are located in 21 states across the United States with concentrations 
in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions. 

More than 700 of the properties we own or lease as of December 31, 2012 were previously leased to Getty Petroleum 
Marketing Inc. (“Marketing”) comprising a unitary premises pursuant to a master lease (the “Master Lease”) and we derived 
a  majority of our revenues from the leasing of these properties under the Master Lease. On December 5, 2011, Marketing 
filed  for  Chapter  11  bankruptcy  protection  in  the  U.S.  Bankruptcy  Court  for  the  Southern  District  of  New  York  (the 
“Bankruptcy  Court”).  Marketing rejected  the  Master  Lease  pursuant  to an  Order  issued  by  the  Bankruptcy  Court  effective 
April 30, 2012. In accordance with GAAP, we recognize in revenue from rental properties in our consolidated statement of

operations the full contractual rent and real estate obligations due to us by Marketing during the term of the Master Lease and 
provide  bad  debt  reserves  included  in  general  and  administrative  expenses  and  in  earnings  (loss)  from  discontinued 
operations in our consolidated statement of operations for our estimate of uncollectible amounts due from Marketing. As a 
result, we provided net bad debt reserves related to uncollected rent and real estate taxes due from Marketing of $8,802,000 
in the fourth quarter of 2011 and $13,980,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The reserve provided in the year ended 
December  31,  2012  is  net  of  a  reduction  of  $1,348,000  as  a  result  of  receiving  cash  from  a  partial  liquidation  of  the 
Marketing bankruptcy estate. We have provided bad debt reserves aggregating $22,782,000 for all outstanding rent and real 
estate tax obligations due from Marketing as of December 31, 2012 substantially all of which remain unpaid as of the filing 
of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. (See note 3 for additional information regarding Marketing and the Master Lease.) 

As a result of Marketing’s bankruptcy filing and Marketing’s rejection of the Master Lease, we commenced a process to 
reposition the portfolio of properties that were subject to the Master Lease after the properties became available to us free of 
Marketing’s tenancy. As a result of that process, as of December31, 2012, we have entered into long-term triple-net leases with 
petroleum  distributors  for  ten  separate  property  portfolios  comprising  443  properties  in  the  aggregate  and  month-to-month 
license  agreements with occupants of approximately 155 properties (substantially all of  whom were Marketing’s former  sub-
tenants) allowing such occupants to continue to occupy and use these properties as gas stations, convenience stores, automotive 
repair service facilities or other businesses. The month-to-month license agreements require the operators to sell fuel provided 
exclusively by petroleum distributors with whom we have contracted for interim fuel supply and from whom we receive a fee 
based on gallons sold. We have also entered into additional month-to-month license agreements at approximately 40 properties 
which have had their underground storage tanks removed and are being used for various retail uses other than as a gas station. 
These properties are currently marketed for sale. Our month-to-month license agreements differ from our typical triple-net lease 
agreements in that we are responsible for the payment of certain environmental costs and property operating expenses including 
real estate taxes. Approximately 60 properties previously subject to the Master Lease are currently vacant, the majority of which 
have had their underground storage tanks removed and are being marketed for sale. 

The  long-term  triple-net  leases  with  petroleum  distributors  for  ten  separate  property  portfolios  comprising  443 
properties in the aggregate are unitary triple-net lease agreements generally with an initial term of 15 years, and options for 
successive  renewal  terms  of  up  to  20  years.  Rent  is  scheduled  to  increase  at  varying  intervals  of  up  to  three  years  on  the 
anniversary  of  the  commencement  date  of  the  leases.  The  majority  of  the  leases  provide  for  additional  rent  based  on  the 
volume  of  petroleum  products  sold.  As  triple-net  lessees,  the  tenants  are  required  to  pay  all  amounts  pertaining  to  the 
properties  subject  to  the  leases,  including  taxes,  assessments,  licenses  and  permit  fees,  charges  for  public  utilities  and  all 
other  governmental  charges.  In  addition,  the  majority  of  the  leases  require  the  tenants  to  make  capital  expenditures  at  our 
properties  substantially  all  of  which  is  related  to  the  replacement  of  underground  storage  tanks  that  are  the  property  our 
tenants. In certain of our new leases, we have committed to co-invest up to $14,080,000 with our tenants for a portion of such 
capital  expenditures,  which  deferred  expense  is  recognized  on  a  straight-line  basis  as  a  reduction  of  revenues  from  rental 
properties  over  the  terms  of  the  various  leases.  As  part  of  certain  of  the  triple-net  leases  we  have  entered  into  through 
December  31,  2012,  we  transferred  title  of  the  USTs  to  our  tenants  and  the  obligation  to  pay  for  the  retirement  and 
decommissioning or removal of USTs at the end of their useful life or earlier if circumstances warranted at the 443 sites was 
fully or partially transferred to our new tenants. We remain contingently liable for this obligation in the event that our tenants 
do  not  satisfy  their  responsibilities.  Accordingly,  during  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012,  we  removed  $11,153,000  of 
asset  retirement  obligations  and  $9,795,000  of  net  asset  retirement  costs  related  to  USTs  from  our  balance  sheet.  The  net 
amount  of  $1,358,000  is  recorded  as  deferred  rental  revenue  and  will  be  recognized  on  a  straight-line  basis  as  additional 
revenues  from  rental  properties  over  the  terms  of  the  various  leases.  We  incurred  $3,146,000  of  lease  origination  costs  in 
2012, which deferred expense is recognized on a straight-line basis as a reduction of revenues from rental properties over the 
terms of the various leases. 

Revenues from rental properties included in continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2012,2011 and 2010 
was  $99,286,000,  $100,263,000  and  $78,227,000,  respectively,  of  which  $20,136,000,  $52,646,000  and  $50,135,000, 
respectively, was contractually due or received from Marketing under the Master Lease through its rejection on April 30, 2012 
and $72,954,000, $45,515,000 and $26,426,000, respectively, were contractually due or received from other tenants including 
rent  for  May  2012  through  December  2012  related  to  properties  repositioned  from  the  Master  Lease.  Revenues  from  rental 
properties and rental property expenses included in continuing operations included $11,263,000 for the year ended December 
31, 2012, $6,639,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011 and $1,849,000, for the year ended December 31, 2010 for real 
estate taxes paid by us which were reimbursable by tenants (which includes amounts related to properties previously subject to 
the Master Lease discussed in the following paragraph). Revenues from rental properties included in continuing operations for 
the year ended December 31, 2012 also include $1,763,000 for amounts realized under interim fuel supply agreements.

As a result of Marketing’s bankruptcy filing, beginning in the first quarter of 2012, we began paying past due real estate 
taxes for 2011 and 2012, which taxes Marketing historically paid directly. Real estate taxes that we pay and were due from 
Marketing  through  April  30,  2012,  the  date  the  Master  Lease  was  rejected,  and  from  certain  other  tenants  who  are 
contractually  obligated  to  reimburse  us  for  the  payment  of  real  estate  taxes  pursuant  to  the  terms  of  triple-net  lease 
agreements are included in revenues from rental properties and in rental property expense in our consolidated statement of 
operations.  Revenues  from  rental  properties  and  rental  property  expense  included  in  continuing  operations  included 
$11,263,000, $6,639,000 and $1,849,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, for real estate 
taxes paid by us which were due from Marketing and other tenants. Marketing also made additional direct payments for other 
operating  expenses  related  to  these  properties,  including  environmental  remediation  obligations  other  than  those  liabilities 
that were retained by us. Costs paid directly by Marketing under the terms of the Master Lease are not reflected in revenues 
from  rental  properties  or  rental  property  expense  in  our  consolidated  financial  statements.  We  continue  to  incur  costs 
associated with the Marketing bankruptcy and we anticipate paying directly other Property Expenditures (as defined below) 
historically paid by Marketing under the terms of the Master Lease for the foreseeable future. 

In accordance with GAAP, we recognize rental revenue in amounts which vary from the amount of rent contractually 
due  or  received  during  the  periods  presented.  As  a  result,  revenues  from  rental  properties  include  non-cash  adjustments 
recorded  for  deferred  rental  revenue  due  to  the  recognition  of  rental  income  on  a  straight-line  (or  average)  basis  over  the 
current  lease  term,  net  amortization  of  above-market  and  below-market  leases  and  recognition  of  rental  income  recorded 
under direct financing leases using the effective interest method which produces a constant periodic rate of return on the net 
investments in the leased properties (the “Revenue Recognition Adjustments”). Revenue Recognition Adjustments included 
in continuing operations increased rental revenue by $4,433,000, $2,102,000 and $1,666,000 for the years ended December 
31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. 

We provide reserves for a portion of the recorded deferred rent receivable if circumstances indicate that a tenant will 
not make all of its contractual lease payments during the current lease term. Our assessments and assumptions regarding the 
recoverability  of  the deferred  rent  receivable  are reviewed  on  an ongoing basis and  such  assessments  and  assumptions  are 
subject  to  change.  As  of  December  31,  2011,  the  gross  deferred  rent  receivable  attributable  to  the  Master  Lease  of 
$25,630,000  was  fully  reserved.  As  a  result  of  the  developments  described  above,  we  previously  concluded  that  it  was 
probable that we would not receive from Marketing the entire amount of the contractual lease payments owed to us under the 
Master Lease. Accordingly, during the third and fourth quarters of 2011, we recorded non-cash allowances for deferred rental 
revenue in continuing and discontinued operations aggregating $11,043,000 and $8,715,000, respectively, fully reserving in 
the fourth quarter of 2011 for the deferred rent receivable relating to the Master Lease. These non-cash allowances reduced 
our  net  earnings  for  the  applicable  periods  in  2011,  but  did  not  impact  our  cash  flow  from  operating  activities.  The  gross 
deferred rent receivable and the reserve relating to the Master Lease were derecognized in the second quarter of 2012 upon 
termination of the Master Lease. 

The components of the $91,904,000 net investment in direct financing leases as of December 31, 2012, are minimum 
lease payments receivable of $203,869,000 plus unguaranteed estimated residual value of $11,991,000 less unearned income 
of $123,956,000. 

Future contractual minimum annual rentals receivable from our tenants, which have terms in excess of one year as of 

December 31, 2012, are as follows (in thousands):

in rental property expenses using the straight-line method. Rent received under subleases for the years ended December 31,

We  have  obligations  to  lessors  under  non-cancelable  operating  leases  which  have  terms  in  excess  of  one  year, 
principally for gasoline stations and convenience stores. The leased properties have a remaining lease term averaging over 10 
years, including renewal options. Future minimum annual rentals payable under such leases, excluding renewal options, are 
as  follows:  2013  —  $7,826,000,  2014  —  $6,830,000,  2015  —  $5,631,000,  2016  —  $4,474,000,  2017  -  $2,771,000  and 
$5,866,000 thereafter. 

3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES 

CREDIT RISK 

In  order  to  minimize  our  exposure  to  credit  risk  associated  with  financial  instruments,  we  place  our  temporary  cash 
investments,  if  any,  with  high  credit  quality  institutions.  Temporary  cash  investments,  if  any,  are  currently  held  in  an 
overnight bank time deposit with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. 

MARKETING AND THE MASTER LEASE 

On December 5, 2011, Marketing filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the Bankruptcy Court. On March 7, 
2012,  we  entered  into  a  stipulation  with  Marketing  and  with  the  Official  Committee  of  Unsecured  Creditors  in  the 
Bankruptcy proceedings (the “Creditors Committee”), which was approved and made an Order by the Bankruptcy Court on 
April  2,  2012  (the  “Stipulation”).  Pursuant  to  the  terms  of  the  Stipulation,  in  addition  to  our  other  pre-petition  and  post-
petition claims, we are entitled to recover an administrative claim capped at $10,500,000 for the partial payment of fixed rent 
and performance of other obligations due from Marketing under the Master Lease from December 5, 2011 until possession of 
the  properties  subject  to  the  Master  Lease  was  returned  to  us  effective  April  30,  2012  (the  “Administrative  Claim”).  Our 
Administrative Claim has priority over the claims of other creditors and certain of our other claims. As of the date of this 
filing on Form 10-K, the outstanding unpaid principal amount of our Administrative Claim is $7,443,000. 

The Bankruptcy Court has appointed a liquidating trustee (the “Liquidating Trustee”) to oversee the liquidation of the 
Marketing  estate  (the  “Marketing  Estate”).  The  Liquidating  Trustee  continues  to  oversee  the  Marketing  Estate  and  pursue 
claims  for  the  benefit  of  its  creditors,  including  those  related  to  the  recovery  of  various  deposits,  including  surety  bonds, 
insurance policy claims and claims made to state funded tank reimbursement programs. We received distributions reducing 
our Administrative Claim of $1,348,000 in the third and fourth quarters of 2012 and $1,709,000 in the first quarter of 2013, 
from the Marketing Estate. As a result, in 2012, we reversed portions of our bad debt reserve for uncollectible amounts due 
from Marketing and reduced bad debt expense included in general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statement 
of income. We cannot provide any assurance that we will ultimately collect any additional claims against or unpaid amounts 
due from the Marketing Estate pursuant to the Plan of Liquidation, or otherwise. 

In  December  2011,  the  Marketing  Estate  filed  a  lawsuit  against  Marketing’s  former  parent,  Lukoil  Americas 
Corporation, and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Lukoil”), as well as the former directors and officers of Marketing (the 
“Lukoil  Complaint”).  The  Lukoil  Complaint  asserts,  among  other  claims,  that  Marketing’s  sale  of  assets  to  Lukoil  in 
November  2009  constituted  a  fraudulent  conveyance,  and  that  the  assets  or  their  value  can  be  recovered  from  Lukoil.  In 
addition, the Lukoil Complaint asserts that the former directors and officers violated their fiduciary duties to Marketing in 
approving and effectuating the challenged sale, and are liable for money damages. The Liquidating Trustee is pursuing these 
claims for the benefit of the Marketing Estate. It is possible that the Liquidating Trustee will obtain a favorable judgment or 
will  settle  with  the  defendants,  and  therefore  it  is  possible  that  we  may  ultimately  recover  a  portion  of  our  claims  against 
Marketing, including our Administrative Claim, which has priority over most other creditors’ claims, and our additional pre-
petition and post-petition claims. 

In October 2012, we entered into an agreement with the Marketing Estate to make loans and otherwise fund up to an 
aggregate amount of $6,425,000 to fund the prosecution of the Lukoil Complaint and certain Liquidating Trustee expenses 
incurred in connection with the wind-down of the Marketing Estate (the “Litigation Funding Agreement”). This agreement 
provides  that we  are  entitled  to receive proceeds,  if  any, from  the  successful prosecution of  the Lukoil  Complaint  in an 
amount equal to the sum of (i) all funds advanced for wind-down costs and expert witness and consultant fees plus interest 
accruing at 15% per annum  on such  advances  made by us; plus (ii)  the  greater of  all funds  advanced for  legal fees  and 
expenses relating to the prosecution of the Lukoil Complaint plus interest accruing at 15% per annum on such advances 
made by us, or 24% of the gross proceeds from any settlement or favorable judgment obtained by the Liquidating Trustee 
due to the Lukoil Complaint. We advanced $1,672,000 in the fourth quarter of 2012 and $143,000 in the first quarter of 
2013 to the Marketing Estate pursuant to the Litigation Funding Agreement. It is possible that we may agree to advance 
amounts in excess of $6,425,000. The Litigation Funding Agreement also provides that we are entitled to be reimbursed 
for up to $1,300,000 of our legal fees incurred in connection with the Litigation Funding Agreement. Based on the terms 

58 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
of  the  Litigation  Funding  Agreement,  we  have  recorded  a  receivable  of  $2,972,000  as  of  December  31,  2012,  which 
includes  amounts  advanced  and  amounts  due  for  reimbursable  legal  fees  we  incurred  in  connection  with  the  Litigation 
Funding  Agreement.  Payments  that  we  receive  pursuant  to  the  Litigation  Funding  Agreement  will  not  reduce  our 
Administrative Claim or our other pre-petition and post-petition claims against Marketing. A portion of the payments we 
receive  pursuant  to  the  Litigation  Funding  Agreement  may  be  subject  to  federal  income  taxes.  We  cannot  provide  any 
assurance  that  we  will  be  repaid  any  amounts  we  advance  pursuant  to  the  Litigation  Funding  Agreement  or  the 
reimbursable legal fees we have incurred. 

We  have  elected  to  account  for  the  advances,  accrued  interest  and  litigation  reimbursements  due  us  pursuant  to  the 
Litigation Funding Agreement on a fair value basis. We used unobservable inputs based on comparable transactions when 
determining  the  fair  value  of  Litigation  Funding  Agreement.  We  concluded  that  the  terms  of  the  Litigation  Funding 
Agreement  are  within  a  range  of  terms  representing  the  market  for  such  arrangements  when  considering  the  unique 
circumstances particular to the counterparties to such funding agreements. These inputs include the potential outcome of the 
litigation related to the Lukoil Complaint including the probability of the Marketing Estate prevailing in its lawsuit and the 
potential  amount  that  may  be  recovered  by  the  Marketing  Estate  from  Lukoil  Americas  Corporation.  We  also  applied  a 
discount factor commensurate with the risk that the Marketing Estate may not prevail in its lawsuit. We considered that fair 
value is defined as an amount of consideration that would be exchanged between a willing buyer and seller. Accordingly, we 
believe that a market participant would likely purchase our rights from  us for approximately the amounts currently due us 
under the terms of the Litigation Funding Agreement. 

Under the Master Lease, Marketing was responsible to pay for certain environmental related liabilities and expenses. 
As  a  result  of  Marketing’s  bankruptcy  filing,  we  have  accrued  for  certain  environmental  liabilities  (the  “Marketing 
Environmental Liabilities”) and commenced funding remediation activities during the second quarter of 2012 related to such 
accruals. We do not expect to be reimbursed by Marketing for any such remediation activities except as a result of realizing a 
claim  deriving  from  the  Lukoil  Complaint.  We  expect  to  continue  to  incur  and  fund  costs  associated  with  the  Marketing 
bankruptcy  proceedings  and  associated  eviction  proceedings  as  well  as  costs  associated  with  repositioning  properties 
previously leased to Marketing. We expect to continue to incur operating expenses such as maintenance, repairs, real estate 
taxes, insurance and general upkeep related to these properties (“Property Expenditures”) for vacant properties and properties 
subject to our month-to-month license agreements. In certain of our new leases, we have also agreed to co-invest with our 
tenants  to  fund  capital  improvements  including  replacing  underground  storage  tanks  and  related  equipment  or  renovating 
some of the properties previously leased to Marketing (“Capital Improvements”). 

It is possible that our estimates for the Marketing Environmental Liabilities relating to the properties previously leased 
to Marketing will be higher than the amounts we have accrued and that issues involved in re-letting or repositioning these 
properties  may  require  significant  management  attention  that  would  otherwise  be  devoted  to  our  ongoing  business.  In 
addition,  we  increased  our  number  of  tenants  significantly  and  are  performing  property  related  functions  previously 
performed  by  Marketing,  both  of  which  have  resulted  in  permanent  increases  in  our  annual  operating  expenses.  The 
incurrence of these various expenses may materially negatively impact our cash flow and ability to pay dividends. 

Our  estimates,  judgments,  assumptions  and  beliefs  regarding  Marketing  and  the  Master  Lease  affect  the  amounts 
reported in our financial statements and are subject to change. Actual results could differ from these estimates, judgments and 
assumptions and such differences could be material. If our actual expenditures for the Marketing Environmental Liabilities 
are  greater  than  the  amounts  accrued,  if  we  incur  significant  costs  and  operating  expenses  relating  to  the  properties 
comprising the Master Lease portfolio; if the repositioning of the properties comprising the Master Lease portfolio leads to a 
protracted and expensive process for taking control and or re-letting our properties; if re-letting the properties comprising the 
Master Lease portfolio requires significant management attention that would otherwise be devoted to our ongoing business; if 
the  Bankruptcy  Court  takes  actions  that  are  detrimental  to  our  interests;  if  we  are  unable  to  re-let  or  sell  the  properties 
comprising the Master Lease portfolio at all or upon terms that are favorable to us; or if we change our estimates, judgments, 
assumptions  and  beliefs;  our  business,  financial  condition,  revenues,  operating  expenses,  results  of  operations,  liquidity, 
ability to pay dividends and stock price may continue to be materially adversely affected or adversely affected to a greater 
extent  than  we  have  experienced.  (For  information  regarding  factors  that  could  adversely  affect  us  relating  to  our  lessees, 
including Marketing, see “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors.”)

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS 

We  are  subject  to  various  legal  proceedings  and  claims  which  arise  in  the  ordinary  course  of  our  business.  As  of 
December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had accrued $3,615,000 and $4,242,000, respectively, for certain of these 
matters which we believe were appropriate based on information then currently available. We are unable to estimate ranges in 
excess of the amount accrued with any certainty for these matters. It is possible that our assumptions regarding the ultimate 
allocation method and share of responsibility that we used to allocate environmental liabilities may change, which may result 
in our providing an accrual, or adjustments to the amounts recorded, for environmental litigation accruals. Matters related to 
our  Newark,  New  Jersey  Terminal  and  the  Lower  Passaic  River  and  the  MTBE  multi-district  litigation  case,  in  particular, 
could  cause  a  material  adverse  effect  on  our  business,  financial  condition,  results  of  operations,  liquidity,  ability  to  pay 
dividends or stock price. 

Matters related to our Newark, New Jersey Terminal and the Lower Passaic River 

In  September  2003,  we  received  a  directive  (the  “Directive”)  from  the  State  of  New  Jersey  Department  of 
Environmental Protection (the “NJDEP”) notifying us that we are one of approximately 66 potentially responsible parties for 
natural resource damages resulting from discharges of hazardous substances into the Lower Passaic River. The Directive calls 
for an assessment of the natural resources that have been injured by the discharges into the Lower Passaic River and interim 
compensatory restoration  for  the  injured  natural  resources.  There has  been  no  material  activity  with  respect  to  the NJDEP 
Directive since early after its issuance. The responsibility for the alleged damages, the aggregate cost to remediate the Lower 
Passaic  River,  the  amount  of  natural  resource  damages  and  the  method  of  allocating  such  amounts  among  the  potentially 
responsible  parties  have  not  been  determined.  Effective  May 2007,  the  United  States  Environmental  Protection  Agency 
(“EPA”)  entered  into  an  Administrative  Settlement  Agreement  and  Order  on  Consent  (“AOC”)  with  over  70  parties 
comprising  a Cooperating  Parties  Group (“CPG”) (many  of whom  are  also  named  in  the  Directive) who have  collectively 
agreed to perform a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study (“RI/FS”) for the Lower Passaic River. We are a party to 
the  AOC  and  are  a  member  of  the  CPG.  The  RI/FS  is  intended  to  address  the  investigation  and  evaluation  of  alternative 
remedial actions with respect to alleged damages to the Lower Passaic River, and is scheduled to be completed in or about 
2015. On  June  18, 2012,  all members  of  the  CPG  except Occidental  Chemical  Corporation  (“Occidental”)  entered into  an 
Administrative  Settlement  Agreement  and  Order  on  Consent  (“10.9  AOC”)  to  perform  certain  remediation  activities, 
including removal and capping of sediments at the river mile 10.9 area and certain testing. Similar to the RI/FS work, the 
CPG  entered  into  an  interim  allocation  for  the  costs  of  the  river  mile  10.9  work.  The  EPA  issued  a  Unilateral  Order  to 
Occidental directing Occidental to participate and contribute to the cost of the river mile 10.9 work and discussions regarding 
Occidental’s participation in the river mile 10.9 work are ongoing. Concurrently, the EPA is preparing a proposed Focused 
Feasibility  Study  (“FFS”)  that  the  EPA  claims  will  address  sediment  issues  in  the  lower  eight  miles  of  the  Lower  Passaic 
River.  The  RI/FS  and  10.9  AOC  do  not  resolve  liability  issues  for  remedial  work  or  restoration  of,  or  compensation  for, 
natural resource damages to the Lower Passaic River, which are not known at this time. 

In  a  related  action,  in  December 2005,  the  State  of  New  Jersey  through  various  state  agencies  brought  suit  against 
certain companies which the State alleges are responsible for various categories of past and future damages resulting from 
discharges  of  hazardous  substances  to  the  Passaic  River.  In  February 2009,  certain  of  these  defendants  filed  third-party 
complaints  against  approximately  300  additional  parties,  including  us,  seeking  contribution  for  such  parties’  proportionate 
share of response costs, cleanup and other damages, based on their relative contribution to pollution of the Passaic River and 
adjacent  bodies  of  water.  We  believe  that  ChevronTexaco  is  contractually  obligated  to  indemnify  us,  pursuant  to  an 
indemnification  agreement,  for  most  if  not  all  of  the  conditions  at  the  property  identified  by  the  NJDEP  and  the  EPA. 
Accordingly, our potential range of loss including our ultimate legal and financial liability, if any, cannot be made with any 
certainty at this time 

MTBE Litigation 

We are defending against one remaining lawsuit of many brought by or on behalf of private and public water providers 
and  governmental  agencies.  These  cases  alleged  (and,  as  described  below  with  respect  to  one  remaining  case,  continue  to 
allege) various theories of liability due to contamination of groundwater with methyl tertiary butyl ether (a fuel derived from 
methanol, commonly referred to as “MTBE”) as the basis for claims seeking compensatory and punitive damages, and name 
as defendant approximately 50 petroleum refiners, manufacturers, distributors and retailers of MTBE, or gasoline containing 
MTBE.  During  2010,  we  agreed  to,  and  subsequently  paid,  $1,725,000  to  settle  two  plaintiff  classes  covering  52  pending 
cases. Presently, we remain a defendant in one MTBE case involving multiple locations throughout the State of New Jersey 
brought by various governmental agencies of the State of New Jersey, including the NJDEP.

As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we maintained a litigation reserve representing our best estimate of 
loss  relating  to  the  remaining  MTBE  case  in  an  amount  which  we  believe  was  appropriate  based  on  information  then 
currently  available.  We  are  unable  to  estimate  ranges  in  excess  of  the  amount  accrued  with  any  certainty  for  the  case 
involving the State of New Jersey as there remains uncertainty as to the accuracy of the allegations in this case as they relate 
to us, our defenses to the claims, our rights to indemnification and the aggregate possible amount of damages for which we 
may be held liable. 

4. CREDIT AGREEMENT AND TERM LOAN AGREEMENT 

As  of  December  31,  2012,  we  were  a  party  to  a  $175,000,000  amended  and  restated  senior  secured  revolving  credit 
agreement  with  a  group  of  commercial  banks  led  by  JPMorgan  Chase  Bank,  N.A.  and  a  $25,000,000  amended  term  loan 
agreement with TD Bank, both of which were scheduled to mature in March 2013. As of December 31, 2012, borrowings 
under the credit agreement were $150,290,000 bearing interest at a rate of 3.25% per annum and borrowings under the term 
loan agreement were $22,030,000 bearing interest at a rate of 3.50% per annum. Loan origination costs incurred in March 
2012 of $4,144,000 were amortized over the one year extended term of these debt agreements. On February 25, 2013, the 
borrowings  then  outstanding  under  such  credit  agreement  and  term  loan  agreement  were  repaid  with  cash  on  hand  and 
proceeds of the Credit Agreement and the Prudential Loan Agreement (both defined below). 

On  February  25,  2013,  we  entered  into  a  $175,000,000  senior  secured  revolving  credit  agreement  (the  “Credit 
Agreement”)  with  a  group  of  commercial  banks  led  by  JPMorgan  Chase  Bank,  N.A.  (the  “Bank  Syndicate”),  which  is 
scheduled to mature in August 2015. Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, we have the option to extend the term of 
the Credit Agreement for one additional year to August 2016. The Credit Agreement allocates $25,000,000 of the total Bank 
Syndicate  commitment  to  a  term  loan  and  $150,000,000  to  a  revolving  credit  facility.  Subject  to  the  terms  of  the  Credit 
Agreement, we have the option to increase by $50,000,000 the amount of the revolving credit facility to $200,000,000. The 
Credit Agreement permits borrowings at an interest rate equal to the sum of a base rate plus a margin of 1.50% to 2.00% or a 
LIBOR rate plus a margin of 2.50% to 3.00% based on our leverage at the end of each quarterly reporting period. The annual 
commitment fee on the undrawn funds under the Credit Agreement is 0.30% to 0.40% based our leverage at the end of each 
quarterly reporting period. The Credit Agreement does not provide for scheduled reductions in the principal balance prior to 
its maturity. 

The  Credit  Agreement  provides  for  security  in  the  form  of,  among  other  items,  mortgage  liens  on  certain  of  our 
properties.  The  parties  to  the  Credit  Agreement  and  the  Prudential  Loan  Agreement  (as  defined  below)  share  the  security 
pursuant to the terms of an inter-creditor agreement. The Credit Agreement contains customary financial covenants such as 
loan to value, leverage and coverage ratios and minimum tangible net worth, as well as limitations on restricted payments, 
which may limit our ability to incur additional debt or pay dividends. The Credit Agreement contains customary events of 
default, including default under the Prudential Loan Agreement, change of control and failure to maintain REIT status. Any 
event of default, if not cured or waived, would increase by 200 basis points (2.00%) the interest rate we pay under the Credit 
Agreement  and  prohibit  us  from  drawing  funds  against  the  Credit  Agreement  and  could  result  in  the  acceleration  of  our 
indebtedness under the Credit Agreement and could also give rise to an event of default and could result in the acceleration of 
our  indebtedness  under  the  Prudential  Loan  Agreement.  We  may  be  prohibited  from  drawing  funds  against  the  revolving 
credit facility if there is a material adverse effect on our business, assets, prospects or condition. 

On February 25, 2013, we entered into a $100,000,000 senior secured long-term loan agreement with the Prudential 
Insurance  Company  of  America  (the  “Prudential  Loan  Agreement”),  which  matures  in  February  2021.  The  Prudential 
Loan Agreement bears interest at 6.00%. The Prudential Loan Agreement does not provide for scheduled reductions in the 
principal balance prior to its maturity. The parties to the Credit Agreement and the Prudential Loan Agreement share the 
security  described  above  pursuant  to  the  terms  of  an  inter-creditor  agreement.  The  Prudential  Loan  Agreement  contains 
customary  financial  covenants  such  as  loan  to  value,  leverage  and  coverage  ratios  and  minimum  tangible  net  worth,  as 
well  as  limitations  on  restricted  payments,  which  may  limit  our  ability  to  incur  additional  debt  or  pay  dividends.  The 
Prudential  Loan  Agreement  contains  customary  events  of  default,  including  default  under  the  Credit  Agreement  and 
failure to maintain REIT status. Any event of default, if not cured or waived, would increase by 200 basis points (2.00%) 
the  interest  rate  we  pay  under  the  Prudential  Loan  Agreement  and  could  result  in  the  acceleration  of  our  indebtedness 
under the Prudential Loan Agreement and could also give rise to an event of default and could result in the acceleration of 
our indebtedness under our Credit Agreement. 

We repaid the then outstanding borrowings related to our debt outstanding as of December 31, 2012 partially with cash 
on hand  and proceeds  from  the  Credit  Agreement  and  the  Prudential  Loan Agreement  entered  into  in  February  2013.  The 
aggregate maturity of the Credit Agreement and the Prudential Loan Agreement as of February 25, 2013, is as follows: 2015 
— $71,900,000 and 2021 - $100,000,000. 

61 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Due to the near-term maturity of our outstanding debt as of December 31, 2012, the carrying value of the borrowings 
outstanding as of December 31, 2012 approximated fair value which was determined using a discounted cash flow technique 
that  incorporates  a  market  interest  yield  curve  based  on  market  data  obtained  from  sources  independent  of  us  that  are 
observable  at  commonly  quoted  intervals  and  are  defined  by  GAAP  as  Level  2  inputs  in  the  Fair  Value  Hierarchy  with 
adjustments for duration, optionality, risk profile and projected average borrowings outstanding or borrowings outstanding, 
which  are  based  on  unobservable  Level  3  inputs.  We  classified  our  valuations  of  the  borrowings  outstanding  under  the 
amended credit agreement and the amended term loan agreement entirely within Level 3 of the Fair Value Hierarchy. 

5. INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENT 

We  were  a  party  to  a  $45,000,000  LIBOR  based  interest  rate  swap,  effective  through  June  30,  2011  (the  “Swap 
Agreement”).  The  Swap  Agreement  was  intended  to  effectively  fix,  at  5.44%,  the  LIBOR  component  of  the  interest  rate 
determined  under  our  LIBOR  based  loan  agreements.  We  entered  into  the  Swap  Agreement  with  JPMorgan  Chase  Bank, 
N.A.,  designated  and  qualifying  as  a  cash  flow  hedge,  to  reduce  our  exposure  to  the  variability  in  future  cash  flows 
attributable to changes in the LIBOR rate. Our primary objective when undertaking the hedging transaction and derivative 
position was to reduce our variable interest rate risk by effectively fixing a portion of the interest rate for existing debt and 
anticipated refinancing transactions. We determined that the derivative used in the hedging transaction was highly effective in 
offsetting changes in cash flows associated with the hedged item and that no gain or loss was required to be recognized in 
earnings during the year ended December 31, 2011 representing the hedge’s ineffectiveness. 

The  fair  values  of  the  Swap  Agreement  obligation  were  determined  using  (i) discounted  cash  flow  analyses  on  the 
expected  cash  flows  of  the  Swap  Agreement,  which  were  based  on  market  data  obtained  from  sources  independent  of  us 
consisting of interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals and are defined by GAAP as 
Level 2 inputs in the Fair Value Hierarchy, and (ii) credit valuation adjustments, which were based on unobservable Level 3 
inputs. We classified our valuations of the Swap Agreement entirely within Level  2 of the Fair Value Hierarchy since the 
credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuations of the Swap Agreement. 

6. ENVIRONMENTAL OBLIGATIONS 

We  are  subject  to  numerous  existing  federal,  state  and  local  laws  and  regulations,  including  matters  relating  to  the 
protection of the environment such as the remediation of known contamination and the retirement and decommissioning or 
removal of long-lived assets including buildings containing hazardous materials, USTs and other equipment. Environmental 
costs are principally attributable to remediation costs which include installing, operating, maintaining and decommissioning 
remediation  systems,  monitoring  contamination  and  governmental  agency  reporting  incurred  in  connection  with 
contaminated  properties.  We  seek  reimbursement  from  state  UST  remediation  funds  related  to  these  environmental  costs 
where available. In July 2012, we purchased for $3,062,000 a ten-year pollution legal liability insurance policy covering all 
of  our  properties  for  pre-existing  unknown  environmental  liabilities  and  new  environmental  events.  The  policy  has  a 
$50,000,000  aggregate  limit  and  is  subject  to  various  self-insured  retentions  and  other  conditions  and  limitations.  Our 
intention in purchasing this policy is to obtain protection predominantly for significant events. No assurances can be given 
that  we  will  obtain  a  net  financial  benefit  from  this  investment.  Historically  we  did  not  maintain  pollution  legal  liability 
insurance to protect from potential future claims related to known and unknown environmental liabilities. 

We  enter  into  leases  and  various  other  agreements  which  allocate  responsibility  for  known  and  unknown 
environmental  liabilities  by  establishing  the  percentage  and  method  of  allocating  responsibility  between  the  parties.  In 
accordance  with  the  leases  with  certain  tenants,  we  have  agreed  to  bring  the  leased  properties  with  known  environmental 
contamination  to  within  applicable  standards,  and  to  either  regulatory  or  contractual  closure  (“Closure”).  Generally,  upon 
achieving Closure at each individual property, our environmental liability under the lease for that property will be satisfied 
and future remediation obligations will be the responsibility of our tenant. 

Generally, our tenants are directly responsible to pay for: (i) the retirement and decommissioning or removal of USTs 
and other equipment, (ii) remediation of environmental contamination they cause and compliance with various environmental 
laws and regulations as the operators of our properties, and (iii) environmental liabilities allocated to them under the terms of 
our leases and various other agreements. We are contingently liable for these obligations in the event that our tenants do not 
satisfy  their  responsibilities.  Under  the  Master  Lease,  Marketing  was  responsible  to  pay  for  the  retirement  and 
decommissioning  or  removal  of  USTs  at  the  end  of  their  useful  life  or  earlier  if  circumstances  warranted  as  well  as  all 
environmental  liabilities  discovered  during  the  term  of  the  Master  Lease,  including:  (i)  remediation  of  environmental 
contamination  Marketing  caused  and  compliance  with  various  environmental  laws  and  regulations  as  the  operator  of  our 
properties, and (ii) known and unknown environmental liabilities allocated to Marketing under the terms of the Master Lease 
and various other agreements with us relating to Marketing’s business and the properties it leased from us (collectively the 

62 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
“Marketing  Environmental  Liabilities”).  A  liability  has  not  been  accrued  for  obligations  that  are  the  responsibility  of  our 
tenants  (other  than  the  Marketing  Environmental  Liabilities  accrued  in  the  fourth  quarter  of  2011)  based  on  our  tenants’ 
history of paying such obligations and/or our assessment of their financial ability and intent to pay their share of such costs. 
However, there can be no assurance that our assessments are correct or that our tenants who have paid their obligations in the 
past will continue to do so. 

In the fourth quarter of 2011, since we could no longer assume that Marketing would be able to meet its environmental 
remediation  obligations  at  246  properties  and  its  obligations  to  remove  all  underground  storage  tanks  at  the  end  of  their 
useful life or earlier if circumstances warrant, we accrued $47,874,000 as the aggregate Marketing Environmental Liabilities. 
In  conjunction  with  recording  the  Marketing  Environmental  Liabilities,  we  increased  the  carrying  value  for  each  of  the 
properties by the amount of the related estimated environmental obligation and simultaneously recorded impairment charges 
aggregating $17,017,000 where the accumulation of asset retirement costs increased the carrying value of the property above 
its estimated fair value. 

As  part  of  certain  triple-net  leases  whose  term  commenced  through  December  31,  2012,  we  transferred  title  of  the 
USTs to our tenants and the obligation to pay for the retirement and decommissioning or removal of USTs at the end of their 
useful life or earlier if circumstances warranted was fully or partially transferred to our new tenants. Accordingly, during the 
year  ended  December  31,  2012,  we  removed  $11,153,000  of  asset  retirement  obligations  and  $9,795,000  of  net  asset 
retirement costs related to USTs from our balance sheet. The net amount of $1,358,000 is recorded as deferred rental revenue 
and  will  be  recognized  on  a  straight-line  basis  as  additional  revenues  from  rental  properties  over  the  terms  of  the  various 
leases. (See note 2 for additional information.) 

It is possible that our assumptions regarding the ultimate allocation method and share of responsibility that we used to 
allocate  environmental  liabilities  may  change,  which  may  result  in  material  adjustments  to  the  amounts  recorded  for 
environmental  litigation  accruals  and  environmental  remediation  liabilities.  We  are  required  to  accrue  for  environmental 
liabilities that we believe are allocable to others under various other agreements if we determine that it is probable that the 
counterparty  will  not  meet  its  environmental  obligations.  The  ultimate  resolution  of  these  matters  could  cause  a  material 
adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends or stock price. 

The estimated future costs for known environmental remediation requirements are accrued when it is probable that a 
liability has been incurred and a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The accrued liability is the aggregate of the 
best  estimate  of  the  fair  value  of  cost  for  each  component  of  the  liability  net  of  estimated  recoveries  from  state  UST 
remediation funds considering estimated recovery rates developed from prior experience with the funds. 

Environmental  exposures  are  difficult  to  assess  and  estimate  for  numerous  reasons,  including  the  extent  of 
contamination, alternative treatment methods that may be applied, location of the property which subjects it to differing local 
laws  and  regulations  and  their  interpretations,  as  well  as  the  time  it  takes  to  remediate  contamination.  In  developing  our 
liability  for  estimated  environmental  remediation  obligations  on  a  property  by  property  basis,  we  consider  among  other 
things,  enacted  laws  and  regulations,  assessments  of  contamination  and  surrounding  geology,  quality  of  information 
available,  currently  available  technologies  for  treatment,  alternative  methods  of  remediation  and  prior  experience. 
Environmental accruals are based on estimates which are subject to significant change, and are adjusted as the remediation 
treatment  progresses,  as  circumstances  change  and  as  environmental  contingencies  become  more  clearly  defined  and 
reasonably estimable. 

Environmental  remediation  obligations  are  initially  measured  at  fair  value  based  on  their  expected  future  net  cash 
flows  which  have  been  adjusted  for  inflation  and  discounted  to  present  value.  As  of  December  31,  2012,  2011,  2010  and 
2009, we had accrued $46,150,000, $57,700,000, $10,908,000 and $12,645,000, respectively, as our best estimate of the fair 
value of reasonably estimable environmental remediation obligations net of estimated recoveries and obligations to remove 
USTs.  Environmental  liabilities  are  accreted  for  the  change  in  present  value  due  to  the  passage  of  time  and,  accordingly, 
$3,174,000, $899,000 and $775,000 of net accretion expense was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 
2010, respectively, which is included in environmental expenses. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2012 we 
recorded credits aggregating $4,154,000 to environmental expenses where decreases in estimated remediation costs exceeded 
the depreciated carrying value of previously capitalized asset retirement costs. Environmental expenses also include project 
management fees, legal fees and provisions for environmental litigation loss reserves. 

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we increased the carrying value of certain of our properties 
by  $5,710,000  and  $47,874,000,  respectively,  due  to  increases  in  estimated  remediation  costs.  The  recognition,  and 
subsequent  changes  in  estimates,  in  environmental  liabilities  and  the  increase  or  decrease  in  carrying  value  of  the 
properties  are  non-cash  transactions  which  do  not  appear  on  the  face  of  the  consolidated  statements  of  cash  flows. 

63 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Capitalized asset retirement costs are being depreciated over the estimated remaining life of the underground storage tank, 
a ten year period if the increase in carrying value related to environmental remediation obligations or such shorter period 
if  circumstances  warrant,  such  as  the  remaining  lease  term  for  properties  we  lease  from  others.  Depreciation  and 
amortization expense included in our consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 
2011  include  $5,371,000  and  $855,000,  respectively,  of  depreciation  related  to  capitalized  asset  retirement  costs  of 
$23,549,000 and $35,321,000 as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. 

We cannot predict what environmental legislation or regulations may be enacted in the future or how existing laws or 
regulations will be administered or interpreted with respect to products or activities to which they have not previously been 
applied.  We  cannot  predict  if  state  UST  fund  programs  will  be  administered  and  funded  in  the  future  in  a  manner  that  is 
consistent with past practices and if future environmental spending will continue to be eligible for reimbursement at historical 
recovery  rates  under  these  programs.  Compliance  with  more  stringent  laws  or  regulations,  as  well  as  more  vigorous 
enforcement policies of the regulatory agencies or stricter interpretation of existing laws, which may develop in the future, 
could  have  an  adverse  effect  on  our  financial  position,  or  that  of  our  tenants,  and  could  require  substantial  additional 
expenditures for future remediation. 

In view of the uncertainties associated with environmental expenditure contingencies, we are unable to estimate ranges 
in excess of the amount accrued with any certainty; however, we believe it is possible that the fair value of future actual net 
expenditures  could  be  substantially  higher  than  amounts  currently  recorded  by  us.  Adjustments  to  accrued  liabilities  for 
environmental remediation obligations will be reflected in our financial statements as they become probable and a reasonable 
estimate  of  fair  value  can  be  made.  Future  environmental  expenses  could  cause  a  material  adverse  effect  on  our  business, 
financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, ability to pay dividends or stock price. 

7. INCOME TAXES 

Net  cash  paid  for  income  taxes  for  the  years  ended  December 31,  2012,  2011  and  2010  of  $810,000,  $267,000  and 
$365,000,  respectively,  includes  amounts  related  to  state  and  local  income  taxes  for  jurisdictions  that  do  not  follow  the 
federal tax rules, which are provided for in rental property expenses in our consolidated statements of operations. 

Earnings  and  profits  (as defined  in  the Internal  Revenue Code)  are  used  to  determine  the  tax  attributes  of  dividends 
paid to stockholders and will differ from income reported for financial statement purposes due to the effect of items which 
are reported for income tax purposes in years different from that in which they are recorded for financial statement purposes. 
Earnings and profits were $7,814,000, $63,472,000 and $50,563,000 for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, 
respectively.  The  federal  tax  attributes  of  the  common  dividends  for  the  years  ended  December 31,  2012,  2011  and  2010 
were:  ordinary  income  of  10.0%,  98.3%  and  97.5%,  capital  gain  distributions  of  61.3%,  1.7%  and  0.4%  and  non-taxable 
distributions of 28.7%, 0.0% and 2.1%, respectively. 

To qualify for taxation as a REIT, we, among other requirements such as those related to the composition of our assets 
and gross income, must distribute annually to our stockholders at least 90% of our taxable income, including taxable income 
that  is  accrued  by  us  without  a  corresponding  receipt  of  cash.  We  cannot  provide  any  assurance  that  our  cash  flows  will 
permit us to continue paying cash dividends. The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) has allowed the use of a procedure, as a 
result of which we could satisfy the REIT income distribution requirement by making a distribution on our common stock 
comprised  of  (i) shares  of  our  common  stock  having  a  value  of  up  to  80%  of  the  total  distribution  and  (ii) cash  in  the 
remaining amount of the total distribution, in lieu of paying the distribution entirely in cash. In order to use this procedure, 
we  would  need  to  seek  and  obtain  a  private  letter  ruling  of  the  IRS  to  the  effect  that  the  procedure  is  applicable  to  our 
situation. Without obtaining such a private letter ruling, we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to satisfy our 
REIT income distribution requirement by making distributions payable in whole or in part in shares of our common stock. 
Should  the  Internal  Revenue  Service  successfully  assert  that  our  earnings  and  profits  were  greater  than  the  amount 
distributed, we may fail to qualify as a REIT; however, we may avoid losing our REIT status by paying a deficiency dividend 
to  eliminate  any  remaining  earnings  and  profits.  We  may  have  to  borrow  money  or  sell  assets  to  pay  such  a  deficiency 
dividend. Although tax returns for the years 2009, 2010 and 2011, and tax returns which will be filed for the year ended 2012 
remain  open  to  examination  by  federal  and  state  tax  jurisdictions  under  the  respective  statute  of  limitations,  we  have  not 
currently  identified  any  uncertain  tax  positions  related  to  those  years  and,  accordingly,  have  not  accrued  for  uncertain  tax 
positions as of December 31, 2012 or 2011. However, uncertain tax matters may have a significant impact on the results of 
operations for any single fiscal year or interim period.

We are authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, of which none were issued as 

of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. 

In the first quarter of 2011, we completed a public stock offering of 3,450,000 shares of our common stock, of which 
3,000,000 shares were issued in January 2011 and 450,000 shares, representing the underwriter’s over-allotment, were issued 
in  February 2011.  Substantially  all  of  the  aggregate  $91,986,000  net  proceeds  from  the  issuance  of  common  stock  (after 
related  transaction  costs of $267,000)  was  used  to  repay  a  portion of  our outstanding  indebtedness and  the  remainder  was 
used for general corporate purposes. 

During the second quarter of 2010, we completed a public stock offering of 5,175,000 shares of our common stock. 
The $108,205,000 net proceeds from the issuance of common stock (after related transaction costs of $522,000) was used in 
part to repay a portion of our outstanding indebtedness and the remainder was used for general corporate purposes. 

9. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS 

The  Getty  Realty  Corp.  2004  Omnibus  Incentive  Compensation  Plan  (the  “2004  Plan”)  provides  for  the  grant  of 
restricted  stock,  restricted  stock  units,  performance  awards,  dividend  equivalents,  stock  payments  and  stock  awards  to  all 
employees and members of the Board of Directors. The 2004 Plan authorizes us to grant awards with respect to an aggregate 
of 1,000,000 shares of common stock through 2014. The aggregate maximum number of shares of common stock that may be 
subject to awards granted under the 2004 Plan during any calendar year is 80,000. 

We  awarded  to  employees  and  directors  52,125,  47,625  and  37,600  restricted  stock  units  (“RSUs”)  and  dividend 
equivalents  in  2012,  2011  and  2010,  respectively.  RSUs  granted  before  2009  provide  for  settlement  upon  termination  of 
employment  with  the  Company  or  termination  of  service  from  the  Board  of  Directors  and  RSUs  granted  in  2009  and 
thereafter upon the earlier of 10 (ten) years after grant or termination. On the settlement date each vested RSU will have a 
value equal to one share of common stock and may be settled, at the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee, in cash 
or by the issuance of one share of common stock. The RSUs do not provide voting or other shareholder rights unless and 
until the RSU is settled for a share of common stock. The RSUs vest starting one year from the date of grant, on a cumulative 
basis at the annual rate of 20% of the total number of RSUs covered by the award. The dividend equivalents represent the 
value of the dividends paid per common share multiplied by the number of RSUs covered by the award. For the years ended 
December 31,  2012,  2011  and  2010,  dividend  equivalents  aggregating  approximately  $82,000,  $249,000  and  $228,000, 
respectively, were charged against retained earnings when common stock dividends were declared.

The fair values of the RSUs were determined based on the closing market price of our stock on the date of grant. The 
fair  value  of  the  grants  is  recognized  as  compensation  expense  ratably  over  the  five-year  vesting  period  of  the  RSUs. 
Compensation expense related to RSUs for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 was $746,000, $638,000 and 
$466,000, respectively, and is included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements 
of operations. As of December 31, 2012, there was $1,825,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to RSUs granted 
under the 2004 Plan which cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.6 years. The 
aggregate  intrinsic  value  of  the  216,350  outstanding  RSUs  and  the  93,225  vested  RSUs  as  of  December 31,  2012  was 
$3,907,000 and $1,684,000, respectively.

We have a retirement and profit sharing plan with deferred 401(k) savings plan provisions (the “Retirement Plan”) for 
employees meeting certain service requirements and a supplemental plan for executives (the “Supplemental Plan”). Under the 
terms of these plans, the annual discretionary contributions to the plans are determined by the Compensation Committee of 
the Board of Directors. 

Also, under the Retirement Plan, employees may make voluntary contributions and we have elected to match an amount 
equal to fifty percent of such contributions but in no event more than three percent of the employee’s eligible compensation. 
Under the Supplemental Plan, a participating executive may receive an amount equal to ten percent of eligible compensation, 
reduced  by  the  amount  of  any  contributions  allocated  to  such  executive  under  the  Retirement  Plan.  Contributions,  net  of 
forfeitures,  under  the  retirement  plans  approximated  $270,000,  $239,000  and  $220,000  for  the  years  ended  December 31, 
2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These amounts are included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying 
consolidated statements of operations. 

We have a stock option plan (the “Stock Option Plan”). Our authorization to grant options to purchase shares of our 
common  stock  under  the  Stock  Option  Plan  has  expired.  During  the  year  ended  December 31,  2010,  5,250  options  were 
exercised  with  an  intrinsic  value  of  $76,000.  As  of  December 31,  2012,  there  were  5,000  options  outstanding  which  were 
exercisable at $27.68 with a remaining contractual life of five years. As of December 31, 2012, the 5,000 options outstanding 
had no intrinsic value.

11. PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS 

In  2012,  we  acquired  fee  or  leasehold  title  to  five  gasoline  station  and  convenience  store  properties  in  separate 

transactions for an aggregate purchase price of $5,159,000. 

CPD NY SALE/LEASEBACK 

On  January 13,  2011,  we  acquired  fee  or  leasehold  title  to  59  Mobil-branded  gasoline  station  and  convenience  store 
properties and also took a security interest in six 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. 
Our  total  investment  in  the  transaction  was  $111,621,000  including  acquisition  costs,  which  was  financed  entirely  with 
borrowings under our revolving credit facility. 

The properties were acquired or financed in a simultaneous transaction among ExxonMobil, CPD NY and us 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 and leasehold interests with us. The lease between us, as lessor, and CPD 
NY,  as  lessee,  governing  the  properties  is  a  unitary  triple-net  lease  agreement  (the  “CPD  Lease”),  with  an  initial  term  of 
15 years, and options for up to three successive renewal terms of ten years each. The CPD 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 CPD 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  CPD  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  us  under  a  secured,  self-
amortizing loan having a 10-year term (the “CPD Loan”). 

We accounted for this transaction as a business combination. We estimated the fair value of acquired tangible assets 
(consisting  of  land,  buildings  and  equipment)  “as  if  vacant”  and  intangible  assets  consisting  of  above-market  and  below-
market  leases.  Based  on  these  estimates,  we  allocated  $60,610,000  of  the  purchase  price  to  land,  net  above-market  and 
below-market leases related to leasehold interests as lessee of $953,000 which is accounted for as a deferred asset, net above-
market and below-market leases related to leasehold interests as lessor of $2,516,000 which is accounted for as a deferred 
liability, $38,752,000 allocated to direct financing leases and capital lease assets, and $18,400,000 which is accounted for in 
notes,  mortgages  and  accounts  receivable,  net.  In  connection  with  the  acquisition  of  certain  leasehold  interests,  we  also 
recorded capital lease obligations aggregating $5,768,000. We also incurred transaction costs of $1,190,000 directly related 
to the acquisition which is included in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of operations. 

NOURIA SALE/LEASEBACK 

On  March 31,  2011,  we  acquired  fee  or  leasehold  title  to  66  Shell-branded  gasoline  station  and  convenience  store 
properties  in  a  sale/leaseback  transaction  with  Nouria  Energy  Ventures  I,  LLC  (“Nouria”),  a  subsidiary  of  Nouria  Energy 
Group. Our total investment in the transaction was $87,047,000 including acquisition costs, which was financed entirely with 
borrowings under our revolving credit facility. 

The properties were acquired in a simultaneous transaction among Motiva Enterprises LLC (“Shell”), Nouria and us 
whereby Nouria acquired a portfolio of 66 gasoline station and convenience stores from Shell and simultaneously completed 
a sale/leaseback of the 66 acquired properties and leasehold interests with us. The lease between us, as lessor, and Nouria, as 
lessee, governing the properties is a unitary triple-net lease agreement (the “Nouria Lease”), with an initial term of 20 years, 
and options for up to two successive renewal terms of ten years each followed by one final renewal term of five years. The 
Nouria Lease requires Nouria 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  every  annual 
anniversary of the date of the Nouria Lease. As a triple-net lessee, Nouria is required to pay all amounts pertaining to the 
properties subject to the Nouria Lease, including taxes, assessments, licenses and permit fees, charges for public utilities and 
all governmental charges. 

We accounted for this transaction as a business combination. We estimated the fair value of acquired tangible assets 
(consisting  of  land,  buildings  and  equipment)  “as  if  vacant”  and  intangible  assets  consisting  of  above-market  and  below-
market  leases.  Based  on  these  estimates,  we  allocated  $37,875,000  of  the  purchase  price  to  land,  net  above-market  and 
below-market leases  relating  to  leasehold  interests  as  lessee  of $3,895,000,  which  is  accounted  for  as  a  deferred  asset,  net 
above-market  and  below-market  leases  related  to  leasehold  interests  as  lessor  of  $3,768,000,  which  is  accounted  for  as  a 
deferred  liability,  $37,315,000  allocated  to  direct  financing  leases  and  capital  lease  assets  and  $12,000,000  which  is 

68 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
accounted  for  in  notes,  mortgages  and  accounts  receivable,  net.  In  connection  with  the  acquisition  of  certain  leasehold 
interests, we also recorded capital lease obligations aggregating $1,114,000. We also incurred transaction costs of $844,000 
directly related to the acquisition which is included in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of 
operations. 

In  2010,  we  purchased  fee  title  to  three  gasoline  and  convenience  store  properties  in  separate  transactions  for  an 

aggregate purchase price of $3,567,000. 

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION 

The  following  unaudited  pro  forma  condensed  consolidated  financial  information  for  the  years  ended  December  31, 
2011 and 2010 have been prepared utilizing the historical financial statements of Getty Realty Corp. and the combined effect 
of  additional  revenue  and  expenses  from  the  properties  acquired  from  both  CPD  NY  and  Nouria  assuming  that  the 
acquisitions  had  occurred  as  of  the  beginning  of  the  earliest  period  presented,  after  giving  effect  to  certain  adjustments 
including:  (a)  rental  income  adjustments  resulting  from  the  straight-lining  of  scheduled  rent  increases;  (b)  rental  income 
adjustments  resulting  from  the recognition  of revenue under  direct  financing  leases  over  the  lease  term  using  the effective 
interest rate method which produces a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the leased properties; (c) rental 
income adjustments resulting from the amortization of above-market leases with tenants; and (d) rent expense adjustments 
resulting  from  the  amortization  of  below-market  leases  with  landlords.  The  following  information  also  gives  effect  to  the 
additional interest expense resulting from the assumed increase in borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility 
to fund the acquisitions and the elimination of acquisition costs. The unaudited pro forma condensed financial information is 
not  indicative  of  the  results  of  operations  that  would  have  been  achieved  had  the  acquisition  from  CPD  NY  and  Nouria 
reflected herein been consummated on the date indicated or that will be achieved in the future.

12. SUPPLEMENTAL CONDENSED COMBINING FINANCIAL INFORMATION 

Condensed combining financial information as of December 31, 2011 and for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 
has  been  derived  from  our  books  and  records  and  is  provided  below  to  illustrate,  for  informational  purposes  only,  the  net 
contribution to our financial results that were realized from the Master Lease with Marketing and from properties leased to 
other tenants. As a result of the rejection of the Master Lease on April 30, 2012, our financial results are no longer materially 
dependent on the performance of Marketing to meet its obligations to us under the Master Lease. 

The condensed combining financial information set forth below presents the results of operations, net assets and cash flows 
related  to  Marketing  and  the  Master  Lease,  our  other  tenants  and  our  corporate  functions  necessary  to  arrive  at  the 
information for us on a combined basis. The assets, liabilities, lease agreements and other leasing operations attributable to 
the Master Lease and other tenant leases are not segregated in legal entities. However, we generally maintain our books and 
records in site specific detail and have classified the operating results which are clearly applicable to each owned or leased 
property as attributable to Marketing or our other tenants or to non-operating corporate functions. The condensed combining 
financial information has been prepared by us using certain assumptions, judgments and allocations. In our prior filings, each 
of our properties were classified as attributable to Marketing, other tenants or corporate for all periods presented based on the 
property’s  use  as  of  the  latest  balance  sheet  date  included  in  such  filing  or  the  property’s  use  immediately  prior  to  its 
disposition or third-party lease expiration. 

As  a  result  of  the  rejection  of  the  Master  Lease  on  April  30,  2012,  we  have  omitted  the  condensed  combining  financial 
information  as  of  December  31,  2012  and  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012  since  our  financial  results  are  no  longer 
materially dependent on the performance of Marketing to meet its obligations to us under the Master Lease. For the historical 
condensed combining financial information set forth below, each of the properties were classified based on the property’s use 
as of December 31, 2011.

Environmental  remediation  expenses  have  been  attributed  to  Marketing  or  other  tenants  on  a  site  specific  basis  and 
environmental related litigation expenses and professional fees have been attributed to Marketing or other tenants based on 
the  pro  rata  share  of  specifically  identifiable  environmental  expenses  for  the  period  from  January  1,  2010  through 
December 31, 2011. 

The heading “Corporate” in the statements below includes assets, liabilities, income and expenses attributed to general 
and  administrative  functions,  financing  activities  and  parent  or  subsidiary  level  income  taxes,  capital  taxes  or  franchise 
taxes which were not incurred on behalf of our leasing operations and are not reasonably allocable to Marketing or other 
tenants.  With  respect  to  general  and  administrative  expenses,  we  have  attributed  those  expenses  clearly  applicable  to 
Marketing  and  other  tenants.  We  considered  various  methods  of  allocating  to  Marketing  and  other  tenants  amounts 
included  under  the  heading  “Corporate”  and  determined  that  none  of  the  methods  resulted  in  a  reasonable  allocation  of 
such amounts or an allocation of such amounts that more clearly summarizes the net contribution to our financial results 
realized from the leasing operations of properties previously leased to Marketing and of properties leased to other tenants. 
Moreover, we determined that each of the allocation methods we considered resulted in a presentation of these amounts 
that would make it more difficult to understand the clearly identifiable results from our leasing operations attributable to 
Marketing  and  other  tenants.  We  believe  that  the  segregated  presentation  of  assets,  liabilities,  income  and  expenses 
attributed to general and administrative functions, financing activities and parent or subsidiary level income taxes, capital 
taxes or franchise taxes provides the most meaningful presentation of these amounts since changes in these amounts are 
not fully correlated to changes in our leasing activities. 

While we believe these assumptions, judgments and allocations are reasonable, the condensed combining financial 
information is not intended to reflect what the net results would have been had assets, liabilities, lease agreements and other 
operations attributable to Marketing or our other tenants been conducted through stand-alone entities during any of the 
periods presented. 

The condensed combining statement of operations of Getty Realty Corp. for the year ended December 31, 2011 is as 

follows (in thousands):

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Getty Realty Corp.: 

In our  opinion,  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance sheets  and  the related  consolidated  statements  of operations, 
comprehensive income and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Getty Realty Corp. and 
its subsidiaries at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three 
years  in  the  period  ended  December 31,  2012  in  conformity  with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United 
States  of  America.  Also  in  our  opinion,  the  Company  maintained,  in  all  material  respects,  effective  internal  control  over 
financial  reporting  as  of  December 31,  2012,  based  on  criteria  established  in  Internal  Control  —  Integrated  Framework 
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management 
is  responsible  for  these  financial  statements,  for  maintaining  effective  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  and  for  its 
assessment  of  the  effectiveness  of  internal  control  over  financial  reporting,  included  in  Management’s  Report  on  Internal 
Control  Over  Financial  Reporting  appearing  under  Item 9A.  Our  responsibility  is  to  express  opinions  on  these  financial 
statements and on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our 
audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards 
require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of 
material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. 
Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in 
the  financial  statements,  assessing  the  accounting  principles  used  and  significant  estimates  made  by  management,  and 
evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement  presentation.  Our  audit  of  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  included 
obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and 
testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also 
included  performing  such  other  procedures  as  we  considered  necessary  in  the  circumstances.  We  believe  that  our  audits 
provide a reasonable basis for our opinions. 

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding 
the  reliability  of  financial  reporting  and  the  preparation  of  financial  statements  for  external  purposes  in  accordance  with 
generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and 
procedures  that  (i) pertain  to  the  maintenance  of  records  that,  in  reasonable  detail,  accurately  and  fairly  reflect  the 
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as 
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that 
receipts  and  expenditures  of  the  company  are  being  made  only  in  accordance  with  authorizations  of  management  and 
directors  of  the  company;  and  (iii) provide  reasonable  assurance  regarding  prevention  or  timely  detection  of  unauthorized 
acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 
Also,  projections  of  any  evaluation  of  effectiveness  to  future  periods  are  subject  to  the  risk  that  controls  may  become 
inadequate  because  of  changes  in  conditions,  or  that  the  degree  of  compliance  with  the  policies  or  procedures  may 
deteriorate.

None. 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in 
our reports filed or furnished pursuant to the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and 
reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and 
communicated  to  our  management,  including  our  Chief  Executive  Officer  and  Chief  Financial  Officer,  as  appropriate,  to 
allow  timely  decisions  regarding  required  disclosure.  In  designing  and  evaluating  the  disclosure  controls  and  procedures, 
management  recognized  that  any  controls  and  procedures,  no  matter  how  well  designed  and  operated,  can  provide  only 
reasonable  assurance  of  achieving  the  desired  control  objectives,  and  management  necessarily  was  required  to  apply  its 
judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. 

As required by the Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), we have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the 
participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness 
of  the  design  and  operation  of  our  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  as  of  the  end  of  the  period  covered  by  this  Annual 
Report on Form 10-K. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our 
disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2012. 

There  have been no  changes  in  our  internal  control over financial  reporting during  the  latest  fiscal  quarter  that  have 

materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as 
such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, 
including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of 
our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by 
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our assessment under the framework in 
Internal Control — Integrated Framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was 
effective as of December 31, 2012. 

The  effectiveness  of  our  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as  of  December 31,  2012,  has  been  audited  by 
PricewaterhouseCoopers  LLP,  an  independent  registered  public  accounting  firm,  as  stated  in  their  report  which  appears  in 
“Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data”. 

There  have been no  changes  in  our  internal  control over financial  reporting during  the  latest  fiscal  quarter  that  have 

materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(1) 

Initial cost of leasehold or acquisition investment to company represents the aggregate of the cost incurred during the 
year in which we purchased the property for owned properties or purchased a leasehold interest in leased properties. 
Cost capitalized subsequent to initial investment also includes investments made in previously leased properties prior 
to their acquisition. 

(2)  Depreciation of real estate is computed on the straight-line method based upon the estimated useful lives of the assets, 
which  generally  range  from  sixteen  to  25  years  for  buildings  and  improvements,  or  the  term  of  the  lease  if  shorter. 
Leasehold interests are amortized over the remaining term of the underlying lease. 

(3)  The aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes was approximately $546,959,000 at December 31, 2012.

We  review  payment  status  to  identify  performing  versus  non-performing  loans.  Interest  income  on  performing  loans  is 
accrued  as  earned.  A  non-performing  loan  is  placed  on  non-accrual  status  when  it  is  probable  that  the  borrower  may  be 
unable to meet interest payments as they become due. Generally, loans 90 days or more past due are placed on non-accrual 
status unless there is sufficient collateral to assure collectability of principal and interest. Upon the designation of non-accrual 
status,  all  unpaid  accrued  interest  is  reserved  against  through  current  income.  Interest  income  on  non-performing  loans  is 
generally recognized on a cash basis. None of our loans were in default as of December 31, 2012 for nonpayment of interest 
only or principal and interest. We have not recognized any impairment charges related to our loans. The summarized changes 
in the carrying amount of mortgage loans are as follows:

I, Thomas J. Stirnweis, certify that:  

1. I have reviewed this Annual Report on Form 10-K of Getty Realty Corp.;  

2. Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact 
necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading 
with respect to the period covered by this report;  

3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information included in this report, fairly present in 
all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods 
presented in this report;  

4.  The  registrant’s  other  certifying  officer  and  I  are  responsible  for  establishing  and  maintaining  disclosure  controls  and 
procedures  (as  defined  in  Exchange  Act  Rules  13a-15(e)  and  15d-15(e))  and  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  (as 
defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the registrant and have:  

a) designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under 
our supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made 
known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared;  

b)  designed  such  internal  control  over  financial  reporting,  or  caused  such  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  to  be 
designed  under  our  supervision,  to  provide  reasonable  assurance  regarding  the  reliability  of  financial  reporting  and  the 
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the 
United States of America;  

c)  evaluated  the  effectiveness  of  the  registrant’s  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  and  presented  in  this  report  our 
conclusions  about  the  effectiveness  of  the  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  as  of  the  end  of  the  period  covered  by  this 
report based on such evaluation; and  

d)  disclosed  in  this  report  any  change  in  the  registrant’s  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  that  occurred  during  the 
registrant’s  fourth  fiscal  quarter  that  has  materially  affected,  or  is  reasonably  likely  to  materially  affect,  the  registrant’s 
internal control over financial reporting; and  

5. The registrant’s other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over 
financial  reporting,  to  the  registrant’s  auditors  and  the  audit  committee  of  the  registrant’s  board  of  directors  (or  persons 
performing the equivalent functions):  

a) all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting 
which  are  reasonably  likely  to  adversely  affect  the  registrant’s  ability  to  record,  process,  summarize  and  report  financial 
information; and  

b)  any  fraud,  whether  or  not  material,  that  involves  management  or  other  employees  who  have  a  significant  role  in  the 
registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
