PETRO FINANCIAL CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED BALANCE SHEETS

(1) Company Formation and Description of Business

Company Formation

Petro Financial Corporation (the “Company”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petro Stopping Centers, L.P. (“PSC”) and was incorporated in February 1994. On July 23, 1999, PSC consummated several transactions collectively referred to as the 1999 Recapitalization. Among other things, Petro Stopping Centers Holdings, L.P. (the “Holding Partnership”) was created as a holding company, and PSC and the Company became subsidiaries of the Holding Partnership. The 1999 Recapitalization had no effect on the recorded amounts of the Company’s assets and stockholder’s equity accounts.

The Company’s sole purpose is to act as a co-obligor with PSC in the issuance of $225.0 million 9% Senior Secured Notes due 2012 (the “9% Notes”) issued in February 2004. The 9% Notes were recorded on the financial statements of PSC.

(2) Basis of Presentation

The Company has no employees, only nominal assets, has not and will not conduct any operations and, accordingly, has no statement of operations or statement of cash flows. The accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheets have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, certain financial information has been condensed and certain footnote disclosures have been omitted. Such information and disclosures are normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

The unaudited condensed balance sheets should be read in conjunction with the Company’s balance sheets and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 (“2004 Form 10-K”). Capitalized terms used in this report and not defined herein have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the 2004 Form 10-K. In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheets contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005.

The Company meets the requirements of an Inactive Registrant as defined by Rule 3-11 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation S-X (the “Rule”). The Rule stipulates that if a registrant is inactive, the financial statements required for purposes of reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 may be unaudited.

2

The Company is inactive with no employees and with minimal assets; accordingly, it has no statement of operations or statement of cash flows. Our balance sheets are unaudited. In the opinion of our management, the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheets contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position at December 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005.

None

As we have no employees, only minimal assets and conduct no operations, we have only rudimentary disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon an evaluation of these controls and procedures as of March 31, 2005, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded they are effective at a reasonable assurance level in light of our lack of operations.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 during the first fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
