(“Getty Realty,” “we,” “us,” “our’ and the “Company”), a Maryland corporation, is a publicly traded, net lease real estate investment trust (“REIT”) specializing in the acquisition, financing and development of convenience, automotive and other single tenant retail real estate. Our predecessor was founded in 1955 and our common stock was listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) in 1997. Unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” as used herein refer to Getty Realty and its owned and controlled subsidiaries. Our portfolio includes convenience stores, express tunnel car washes, automotive service centers (gasoline and repair, oil and maintenance, tire and battery, and collision), drive-thru quick service restaurants, and certain other freestanding retail properties. Our 1,224 properties as of June 30, 2026 are located in 46 states and Washington, D.C., and our tenants operate under a variety of national and regional retail brands. We are internally managed by our management team, which has extensive experience acquiring, financing, developing and managing convenience, automotive and other single tenant retail real estate. Our Company is headquartered in New York, New York. NOTE 2. — ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Getty Realty and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We do not distinguish our principal business or our operations on a geographical basis for purposes of measuring performance. We manage and evaluate our operations as a single segment. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Unaudited, Interim Consolidated Financial Statements The consolidated financial statements are unaudited but, in our opinion, reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Use of Estimates, Judgments and Assumptions The consolidated 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 consolidated 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, real estate, receivables, deferred rent receivable, direct financing leases, depreciation and amortization, impairment of long-lived assets, environmental remediation costs, environmental remediation obligations, litigation, accrued liabilities, income taxes and the allocation of the purchase price of properties acquired to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Application of these estimates and assumptions requires exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Real Estate Real estate assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. For acquisitions of real estate, 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, intangible market lease assets and liabilities, in-place leases and tenant relationships) and assumed debt. Based on these estimates, we allocate the estimated fair value to the applicable assets and liabilities. When we enter into sale-leaseback transactions with intangible market lease assets and liabilities, the intangibles will be accounted for as prepaid rent receivables or prepaid rent liabilities, respectively. Fair value is determined based on an exit price approach, which contemplates the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assumptions used are property and geographic specific and may include, among other considerations, capitalization rates, market rental rates, discount rates, EBITDAR to rent coverage ratios, and land comparables. We expense transaction costs associated with business combinations in the period incurred. Acquisitions of real estate which do not meet the definition of a business are accounted for as asset acquisitions. The accounting model for asset acquisitions is similar to the accounting model for business combinations except that the acquisition costs are capitalized and allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed on a relative fair value basis. For additional information regarding property acquisitions, see Note 12 – Property Acquisitions. 4 We capitalize direct costs, including costs such as construction costs and professional services, and indirect costs associated with the development and construction of real estate assets while substantive activities are ongoing to prepare the assets for their intended use. The capitalization period begins when development activities are underway and ends when it is determined that the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. We evaluate the held for sale classification of our real estate as of the end of each quarter. Assets that are classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. 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. 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. 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. We consider direct financing leases to be past-due or delinquent when a contractually required payment is not remitted in accordance with the provisions of the underlying agreement. On June 16, 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurements of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). For additional information regarding our direct financing leases, see Note 3 - Leases. We review our direct financing leases each reporting period to determine whether there were any indicators that the value of our net investments in direct financing leases may be impaired and adjust the allowance for any estimated changes in the credit loss with the resulting change recorded through our consolidated statement of operations. When determining a possible impairment, we take into consideration the collectability of direct financing lease receivables for which a reserve would be required. In addition, we determine whether there has been a permanent decline in the current estimate of the residual value of the property. There were no indicators of impairment related to any of our direct financing leases during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and, accordingly, we did not record any additional allowance for credit losses in either period. When we enter into a contract to sell properties that are recorded as direct financing leases, we evaluate whether we believe that it is probable that the disposition will occur. If we determine that the disposition is probable and therefore the property’s holding period is reduced, we may adjust an allowance for credit losses to reflect the change in the estimate of the undiscounted future rents. Accordingly, the net investment balance is written down to fair value. Notes and Mortgages Receivable Notes and mortgages receivable consists of loans originated by us in conjunction with property dispositions and funding provided to tenants in conjunction with property acquisitions and capital improvements. Notes and mortgages receivable are recorded at stated principal amounts. We estimated our credit loss reserve for our notes and mortgages receivable using the weighted average remaining maturity (“WARM”) method, which has been identified as an acceptable loss-rate method for estimating credit loss reserves in the FASB Staff Q&A Topic 326, No. 1. The WARM method requires us to reference historic loan loss data across a comparable data set and apply such loss rate to our notes and mortgages portfolio over its expected remaining term, taking into consideration expected economic conditions over the relevant timeframe. We applied the WARM method for our notes and mortgages portfolio, which share similar risk characteristics. Application of the WARM method to estimate a credit loss reserve requires significant judgment, including (i) the historical loan loss reference data, (ii) the expected timing and amount of loan repayments, and (iii) the current credit quality of our portfolio and our expectations of performance and market conditions over the relevant time period. To estimate the historic loan losses relevant to our portfolio, we used our historical loan performance since the launch of our loan origination business in 2013. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the allowance for credit losses on notes and mortgages receivable was $0.3 million. We also originate construction loans and provide development financing for the construction of income-producing properties which we generally expect to acquire via sale-leaseback transactions at the end of the construction period. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we funded $10.2 million and, as of June 30, 2026, had outstanding $14.9 million of such construction loans and development financing. Our construction loans and development financing generally provide for funding only during the construction period, and funds are disbursed based on inspections in accordance with a schedule reflecting the completion of portions of the projects. At the end of the construction period, the construction loans will be repaid with the proceeds from the sale of the properties. 5 In addition, we may acquire from tenants real estate assets that are under construction and commit to provide additional funding during the construction period to complete the properties. These transactions typically do not meet the criteria for sale-leaseback accounting and are accounted for as finance receivables. Accordingly, initial investments and all subsequent fundings made during the construction period are recorded within notes and mortgages receivable on our consolidated balance sheets, and income earned on these investments are recognized within interest on notes and mortgages receivable on our consolidated statements of operations. At the end of the construction period, we will recognize the purchase of the assets, remove the finance receivables from our consolidated balance sheets, and begin to record rental income from the operating leases. As of June 30, 2026, we funded $3.6 million of such investments and, as of June 30, 2026, had a total of $3.6 million of such investments recorded in notes and mortgages receivable. Revenue Recognition and Deferred Rent Receivable 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 our consolidated balance sheets. We review our accounts receivable, including its deferred rent receivable, related to base rents, straight-line rents, tenant reimbursements and other revenues for collectability. Our evaluation of collectability primarily consists of reviewing past due account balances and considers such factors as the credit quality of our tenant, historical trends of the tenant, changes in tenant payment terms, current economic trends, and other facts and circumstances related to the applicable tenants. In addition, with respect to tenants in bankruptcy, we estimate the probable recovery through bankruptcy claims. If a tenant’s accounts receivable balance is considered uncollectible, we will write off the related receivable balances and cease to recognize lease income, including straight-line rent unless cash is received. If the collectability assessment subsequently changes to probable, any difference between the lease income that would have been recognized if collectability had always been assessed as probable and the lease income recognized to date, is recognized as a current-period adjustment to revenues from rental properties. Our reported net earnings are directly affected by our estimate of the collectability of our accounts receivable. The present value of the difference between the fair market rent and the contractual rent for leases at the time properties are acquired is amortized into revenues from rental properties over the remaining terms of the in-place leases. Lease termination fees are recognized as other 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 sales of nonfinancial assets, such as real estate, are to be recognized when control of the asset transfers to the buyer, which will occur when the buyer has the ability to direct the use of or obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset. This generally occurs when the transaction closes and consideration is exchanged for control of the property. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets 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. Assets held for disposal are written down to fair value less estimated disposition costs. The estimated fair value of real estate is based on the price that would be received from the sale of the property in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. 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 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. We recorded impairments aggregating $2.5 million and $4.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and $0.5 million and $1.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. Our estimated fair values, as they relate to property carrying values, were primarily based on estimated sales prices from third-party offers, including signed contracts, letters of intent, or indicative bids (for which we do not have access to the unobservable inputs) used to determine these estimated fair values, and/or consideration of the estimated amount currently required to replace the asset, as adjusted for obsolescence, and resulted in $3.1 million and $0.6 million of impairment charges during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the remaining impairments of $0.9 million and $1.0 million, respectively, were due to the accumulation of asset retirement costs as a result of changes in estimates associated with our estimated environmental liabilities which increased the carrying values of certain properties in excess of their fair values. Impairments relating to properties that were previously disposed of by us, included in the amounts above, were $0.3 million and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. 6 Fair Value of Financial Instruments All of our financial instruments are reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at amounts which, in our estimation based upon an interpretation of available market information and valuation methodologies, reasonably approximate their fair values, except those separately disclosed in the notes below. The preparation of consolidated 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 consolidated 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. Environmental Remediation Obligations We record the fair value of an environmental remediation obligation as an asset and liability when there is a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset and the liability can be reasonably estimated. Environmental remediation obligations are estimated based on the level and impact of contamination at each property. The accrued liability is the aggregate of our estimate of the fair value of cost for each component of the liability. The accrued liability is net of estimated recoveries from state underground storage tank (“UST”) remediation funds considering 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. For additional information regarding environmental obligations, see Note 7 – Environmental Obligations. Income Taxes We file a federal income tax return on which we consolidate our tax items and the tax items of our subsidiaries that are pass-through entities. Effective January 1, 2001, we elected to qualify, and believe that 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 stockholders 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. Tax returns filed for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2023 and 2024, and tax returns which will be filed for the year ended December 31, 2025, remain open to examination by federal and state tax jurisdictions under the respective statutes of limitations. New Accounting Pronouncements In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), requiring public entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027,with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025-11”). ASU 2025-11 is intended to clarify and improve certain aspects of interim financial reporting, including the requirements for interim disclosures and the application of recognition and measurement guidance in interim periods. ASU 2025-11 is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the guidance and potential additional disclosures required. 7 NOTE 3. — LEASES As Lessor As of June 30, 2026, we owned 1,198 properties and leased 26 properties from third-party landlords. These 1,224 properties are located in 46 states across the United States and Washington, D.C. Substantially all of our properties are leased on a triple-net basis to convenience store operators, petroleum distributors, express tunnel car wash operators and other automotive-related and retail tenants. Our tenants either operate their business at our properties directly or, in the case of certain convenience stores and gasoline and repair stations, sublet our properties and supply fuel to third parties that operate the business. Our triple-net lease tenants are responsible for the payment of all taxes, maintenance, repairs, insurance and other operating expenses relating to our properties, and are also responsible for environmental contamination occurring during the terms of their leases and in certain cases also for environmental contamination that existed before their leases commenced. For additional information regarding our environmental obligations, see Note 7 – Environmental Obligations. The majority of our tenants’ financial results depend on convenience store sales, the sale of refined petroleum products and/or the sale of automotive services and parts. During the terms of our leases, we monitor the credit quality of our triple-net lease tenants by reviewing their published credit rating, if available, reviewing publicly available financial statements, or reviewing financial or other operating statements which are delivered to us pursuant to applicable lease agreements, monitoring news reports regarding our tenants and their respective businesses, and monitoring the timeliness of lease payments and the performance of other financial covenants under their leases. Pursuant to ASU 2016-02, for leases in which we are the lessor, we are (i) retaining classification of our historical leases as we were not required to reassess classification upon adoption of the new standard, (ii) expensing indirect leasing costs in connection with new or extended tenant leases, the recognition of which would have been deferred under prior accounting guidance and (iii) aggregating revenue from our lease components and non-lease components (comprised of tenant reimbursements) into revenue from rental properties. Revenues from Rental Properties Revenues from rental properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, were $58.6 million and $115.9 million, respectively, including base rental income of $56.7 million and $112.7 million, respectively. Revenues from rental properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, were $52.7 million and $104.4 million, respectively, including base rental income of $50.2 million and $100.0 million, respectively. In accordance with GAAP, we recognize rental revenue in amounts which vary from the amount of rent contractually due during the periods presented. As a result, revenues from rental properties include non-cash adjustments recorded for (i) deferred rental revenue due to the recognition of rental income on a straight-line basis over the current lease term, (ii) the net amortization of intangible market lease assets and liabilities, (iii) 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, and (iv) the amortization of deferred lease incentives. Non-cash adjustments included in revenues from rental properties were $0.7 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and $1.1 million and $1.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. Tenant reimbursements, which are included in revenues from rental properties and consist of real estate taxes and other municipal charges paid by us and reimbursed by our tenants pursuant to the terms of triple-net lease agreements, were $1.1 million and $2.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and $1.4 million and $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. Investment in Direct Financing Leases The components of investment in direct financing leases, net as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are as follows (in thousands): June 30, 2026 December 31, 2025 Lease payments receivable $ 39,337 $ 44,243 Unguaranteed residual value 7,568 7,568 Unearned Income (10,284 ) (12,532 ) Allowance for credit losses (426 ) (426 ) Total $ 36,195 $ 38,853 In accordance with ASU 2016-13, as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had recorded an allowance for credit losses of $0.4 million on investment in direct financing leases. 8 We evaluate the credit quality of our investment in direct financing leases utilizing internal underwriting and credit analysis. Substantially all of our tenants under direct financing leases are required to provide us with specified unit-level and/or corporate-level financial information. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, no material balances of our investments in direct financing leases were past due. Minimum Rents Due As of June 30, 2026, future contractual annual rentals receivable from our tenants, which have terms in excess of one year are as follows (in thousands): Operating Leases Direct Financing Leases 2026 $ 112,105 $ 4,962 2027 224,521 10,089 2028 221,606 9,799 2029 220,008 8,425 2030 217,932 4,844 Thereafter 1,672,191 1,218 Total $ 2,668,363 $ 39,337 As Lessee For leases in which we are the lessee, lease accounting standards require leases with durations greater than twelve months to be recognized on our consolidated balance sheets. We elected the package of transition provisions available for expired or existing contracts, which allowed us to carry forward our historical assessments of (i) whether contracts are or contain leases, (ii) lease classification and (iii) initial direct costs. As of January 1, 2019, we recognized operating lease right-of-use assets of $25.6 million (net of deferred rent expense) and operating lease liabilities of $26.1 million, which were presented on our consolidated financial statements. The right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are carried at the present value of the remaining expected future lease payments. When available, we use the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, our current leases did not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, we estimated our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available and considered factors such as interest rates available to us on a fully collateralized basis and terms of the leases. ASU 2016-02 did not have a material impact on our consolidated balance sheets or on our consolidated statements of operations. The most significant impact was the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases, while our accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged. The following presents the lease-related assets and liabilities (in thousands): June 30, 2026 Assets Right-of-use assets - operating $ 8,761 Right-of-use assets - finance 37 Total lease assets $ 8,798 Liabilities Lease liability - operating 9,734 Lease liability - finance 107 Total lease liabilities $ 9,841 The following presents the weighted average lease terms and discount rates of our leases: Weighted-average remaining lease term (years): Operating leases 6.30 Finance leases 0.75 Weighted-average discount rate: Operating leases (a) 4.60 % Finance leases 13.50 % (a)Upon adoption of the new lease standard, discount rates used for existing leases were established at January 1, 2019. 9 The following presents our total lease costs (in thousands): For the Three Months Ended June 30, For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 Operating lease cost 633 $ 673 $ 1,195 $ 1,363 Finance lease cost Amortization of leased assets 34 31 67 93 Interest on lease liabilities 3 6 7 13 Short-term lease cost — — — — Total lease cost $ 670 $ 710 $ 1,269 $ 1,469 The following presents supplemental cash flow information related to our leases (in thousands): For the Three Months Ended June 30, For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: Operating cash flows for operating leases $ 663 $ 701 $ 1,332 $ 1,419 Operating cash flows for finance leases 3 6 7 13 Financing cash flows for finance leases 34 31 67 93 As of June 30, 2026, scheduled lease liabilities mature as follows (in thousands): Operating Leases Direct Financing Leases 2026 $ 1,189 $ 74 2027 2,145 37 2028 2,020 — 2029 1,760 — 2030 1,522 — Thereafter 2,797 — Total lease payments 11,433 111 Less: amount representing interest (1,699 ) (4 ) Present value of lease payments $ 9,734 $ 107 Major Tenants As of June 30, 2026 and 2025, we had two significant tenants by revenue: June 30, 2026 June 30, 2025 Number of Properties % of Total Revenues Number of Properties % of Total Revenues ARKO Corp. (NASDAQ: ARKO) 148 11 % 148 12 % Global Partners LP (NYSE: GLP) 127 10 % 127 10 % Getty Petroleum Marketing Inc. Getty Petroleum Marketing Inc. (“Marketing”) was our largest tenant from 1997 until 2012 under a unitary triple-net master lease that was terminated in April 2012, at which time we either sold or released these properties. As of June 30, 2026, 283 of the properties we own or lease were previously leased to Marketing, of which 260 properties are subject to ten separate, long-term triple-net leases with petroleum distributors, and 21 properties are subject to single-unit triple-net leases (one property is vacant and one property is under redevelopment). These leases generally have initial terms of 15 years with tenant options for successive renewal terms of up to 20 years and, as of June 30, 2026, the weighted average remaining lease term, excluding renewal options, for the properties previously leased to Marketing was 9.1 years. In connection with leases for properties previously leased to Marketing, title to the USTs and the related retirement and decommissioning obligations were transferred to the tenants. We remain contingently liable if tenants fail to perform. Through June 30, 2026, we removed $13.8 million of asset retirement obligations and $10.8 million of net asset retirement costs related to USTs from our 10 balance sheet. The remaining $0.2 million (net of accumulated amortization of $2.8 million) is recorded as deferred rental revenue and is recognized on a straight-line basis as additional rental revenue over the respective lease terms. NOTE 4. — 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. and these balances, at times, may exceed federally insurable limits. Legal Proceedings We are involved in various legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of our business. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had $5.0 million and $5.6 million, respectively, accrued for certain of these matters which we believe were appropriate based on information then currently available. Matters related to our former Newark, New Jersey Terminal and the Lower Passaic River, and our MTBE litigations in the states of Pennsylvania and Maryland, 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 former Newark, New Jersey Terminal and the Lower Passaic River In 2004, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) issued General Notice Letters (“GNL”) to over 100 entities, including us, alleging that they are potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”) with respect to a 17-mile stretch of the Passaic River from Dundee Dam to the Newark Bay and its tributaries (the Lower Passaic River Study Area or “LPRSA”). The LPRSA is part of the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site (“Superfund Site”) that includes the former Diamond Shamrock Corporation manufacturing facility located at 80-120 Lister Ave. in Newark, New Jersey (the “Diamond Shamrock Facility”), the LPRSA, and the Newark Bay Study Area (i.e, Newark Bay and portions of surrounding rivers and channels). One of the GNL recipients is Occidental Chemical Corporation (“Occidental”), the predecessor to the former owner/operator of the Diamond Shamrock Facility responsible for the discharge of 2,3,8,8-TCDD (“dioxin”) and other hazardous substances. In May 2007, over 70 GNL recipients, including us, entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent (“AOC”) with the EPA to perform a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study (“RI/FS”) for the LPRSA to address investigation and evaluation of alternative remedial actions with respect to alleged damages to the entire 17-mile LPRSA, which the EPA has designated Operable Unit 4 or “OU4”. Many of the parties to the AOC, including us, are also members of a Cooperating Parties Group (“CPG”). In 2015, the CPG submitted a draft RI/FS to the EPA setting forth various alternatives for remediating the LPRSA. In October 2018, the EPA issued a letter directing the CPG to prepare a streamlined feasibility study for just the upper 9-miles of the LPRSA. On December 4, 2020, the CPG submitted a Final Draft Interim Remedy Feasibility Study (“IR/FS”) to the EPA which identified various targeted dredge and cap alternatives for the upper 9-miles of the LPRSA. On September 28, 2021, the EPA issued a Record of Decision (“ROD”) for the upper 9-mile IR/FS (“Upper 9-mile IR ROD”) consisting of dredging and capping to control sediment sources of dioxin and polychlorinated biphenyls at an estimated cost of $441.0 million. In addition to the RI/FS activities, in June 2012, certain members of the CPG entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent (“10.9 AOC”) with the EPA to perform certain remediation activities, including removal and capping of sediments at the river mile 10.9 area and certain testing, which remedial work has been completed. Concurrent with the CPG’s work on the RI/FS, on April 11, 2014, the EPA issued a draft Focused Feasibility Study (“FFS”) with proposed remedial alternatives to remediate the lower 8.3-miles of the LPRSA. On March 4, 2016, the EPA issued a ROD for the lower 8.3-miles (“Lower 8-mile ROD”) selecting a remedy that involves bank-to-bank dredging and installing an engineered cap with an estimated cost of $1.38 billion. On March 31, 2016, the EPA issued a “Notice of Potential Liability and Commencement of Negotiations for Remedial Design” (“Notice”) to more than 100 PRPs, including us, which informed the recipients that the EPA intends to seek an Administrative Order on Consent and Settlement Agreement with Occidental (who the EPA considers the primary contributor of dioxin and other pesticides generated from the production of Agent Orange at its Diamond Shamrock Facility and a discharger of other contaminants of concern (“COCs”) to the Superfund Site) requiring Occidental to prepare the remedial design of the remedy selected in the Lower 8-mile ROD. The EPA has designated the lower 8.3 miles of the LPRSA as Operable Unit 2 or “OU2”, which is geographically subsumed within OU4. On September 30, 2016, Occidental entered into an agreement with the EPA to perform the remedial design for OU2. By letter dated March 30, 2017, the EPA advised the recipients of the Notice that it would be entering into cash out settlements with certain PRPs who the EPA stated did not discharge any of the eight hazardous substances identified as a COC in the Lower 8-mile ROD to resolve their alleged liability for OU2. Cash out settlements were finalized in 2018 and 2021 with a total of 21 PRPs. The EPA’s March 30, 2017 letter also stated that other parties who did not discharge dioxins, furans or polychlorinated biphenyls (which are considered the COCs posing the greatest risk to the river) may also be eligible for cash out settlements, and that the EPA would begin a process for identifying such other PRPs for negotiation of future cash out settlements and to initiate negotiations with Occidental and other major PRPs for the implementation and funding of the OU2 remedy. In August 2017, the EPA appointed an independent third-party allocation expert to conduct a confidential allocation proceeding that would assign non-binding shares of responsibility to PRPs 11 identified by the EPA for cash out settlements. Most of the PRPs identified by the EPA, including the Company, participated in the allocation process. Occidental did not participate in the allocation proceedings, but on June 30, 2018, filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey listing over 120 defendants, including us, seeking cost recovery and contribution under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act for response costs incurred and to be incurred relating to the LPRSA, including the investigation, design, and anticipated implementation of the OU2 remedy (the “Occidental Lawsuit”). We continue to defend the claims asserted in the Occidental Lawsuit individually and in coordination with a group of several other named defendants known as the “Small Parties Group” or “SPG” consistent with our defenses in the related proceedings. On January 5, 2024, the Court entered an Order to Stay the Occidental Lawsuit pending the Court’s adjudication of a Motion to Enter the Modified Consent Decree filed by the United States on January 31, 2024, as discussed below. The allocator issued a final Allocation Recommendation Report in December 2020, which was based upon an allocation methodology approved by the EPA that contains associated allocation shares for each of the parties invited to participate in the allocation, including Occidental - who the allocator concluded was responsible for more than 99% of the costs to implement the OU2 remedy. As a result of the allocation process, the EPA and 85 parties (the “Settling Parties”), including us, began settlement negotiations and reached an agreement on a cash-out settlement to resolve their alleged liability for the remediation of the entire LPRSA. The EPA concluded that the Settling Parties, individually and collectively, were responsible for only a minor share of the response costs incurred and to be incurred at or in connection with implementing the OU2 and OU4 remedies for the entire 17-mile Lower Passaic River. In December 2022, the EPA and the Settling Parties finalized their agreement in a proposed consent decree (“CD”), pursuant to which and without admitting liability, the Settling Parties agree to pay the EPA the collective sum of $150.0 million in exchange for contribution protection from claims by non-settling PRPs (including Occidental) for the matters addressed in the CD and the issuance of a notice of completion by the EPA of both the 2007 RI/FS AOC and the 10.9 AOC, upon completion of certain defined tasks in the CD. All 85 Settling Parties contributed to an escrow account agreed upon shares of the settlement amount, which are subject to a confidentiality agreement. Our settlement contribution was in line with legal reserves we had previously established. On December 16, 2022, the United States filed an action in the New Jersey District Court against the Settling Defendants which included lodging of the proposed CD to resolve claims against the Settling Parties for costs associated with cleaning up the LPRSA (the “CD Action”). On December 22, 2022, the EPA published a notice of lodging of the proposed CD in the Federal Register, opening a 45-day public comment period, which was subsequently extended to 90-days. On December 23, 2022, Occidental filed a motion to intervene in the CD Action and subsequently filed voluminous comments objecting to the entry of the proposed CD. On January 17, 2024, the United States informed the Court that it completed reviewing public comments, including those from Occidental, and found no reasons to consider the proposed CD as inappropriate, improper, or inadequate. Nevertheless, the United States decided that certain limited changes to the CD should be made prior to moving for approval thereof. These changes involved removing three parties and a modification to the United States' reservation of rights. The remaining 82 Settling Parties, including us, concurred with these changes, leading to the United States filing a Modified Consent Decree (“Modified CD”) with the Court on the same day, January 17, 2024. On January 31, 2024, the United States filed a copy of all public comments received on the proposed CD, its Response to the public comments and a Motion to Enter the Modified CD. The Motion to Enter the Modified CD and accompanying memorandum of law states that the United States has determined that the proposed settlement is reasonable, fair and consistent with the statutory purpose of CERCLA. On December 18, 2024, the Court issued an Order and Opinion granting the United States’ Motion to Enter the Modified CD finding the settlement procedurally sound, substantively fair and reasonable, and in furtherance of CERCLA’s goals. On January 9, 2025, Nokia of America Corporation, an intervening party, filed a Notice of Appeal of the Order to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. Occidental, also an intervening party, filed a separate Notice of Appeal on February 13, 2025. The timeline for resolving the appeals before the Third Circuit remains inherently uncertain. Depending on the time required for briefing and deliberation, a decision will extend into 2026 and beyond. In 2025, following its appeal of the Modified CD, Occidental underwent a corporate reorganization that ultimately resulted in the segregation of its business assets from its legacy environmental liabilities (including those related to the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site) and the formation of two newly created entities: Occidental Chemical Company (“OxyChem”) and Environmental Resource Holdings, LLC (“ERH”). Consequently, in February, 2026, members of the SPG filed a declaratory judgment action in the New Jersey District Court seeking a ruling that both OxyChem and ERH remain jointly and severally liable for all of Occidental’s CERCLA obligations relating to the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site. If the Modified CD remains in its currently approved form after the appeals process is exhausted, our alleged liability to the EPA and to any non-settling parties, including Occidental, for the remediation of the entire 17-mile Lower Passaic River and its tributaries will be resolved. If the District Court’s Order is overturned on appeal, then, based on currently known facts and circumstances, including, among other factors, the EPA’s conclusion that we are individually and collectively with numerous other parties only responsible for a minor share of the response costs incurred or to be incurred in connection with the LPRSA, our relative participation in the costs related to the 2007 AOC and 10.9 AOC, our belief that there was not any use or discharge of dioxins, furans or polychlorinated biphenyls in connection with our former petroleum storage operations at our former Newark, New Jersey Terminal, and that there are numerous other parties who will likely bear the costs of remediation and/or damages, we do not believe that resolution of the Lower Passaic River proceedings as relates to us is reasonably likely to have a material impact on our results of operations. Nevertheless, if the District 12 Court’s Order is overturned or is not ultimately approved in its current form, performance of the EPA’s selected remedies for the LPRSA may be subject to future negotiation, potential enforcement proceedings and/or possible litigation and, on this basis, our ultimate liability in the proceedings pertaining to the LPRSA remains uncertain and subject to contingencies which cannot be predicted and an outcome which is not yet known. We previously transferred funds to an escrow account based on our share of the settlement contemplated by the Modified CD, however it is possible that circumstances may change including but not limited to possible consequences of an adverse ruling in the above referenced declaratory judgment action, such that and losses related to the Lower Passaic River proceedings could exceed the amounts we have funded. MTBE Litigation – State of Pennsylvania On July 7, 2014, our subsidiary, Getty Properties Corp., was served with a complaint filed by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (the “State”) in the Court of Common Pleas, Philadelphia County relating to alleged statewide MTBE contamination in Pennsylvania. The named plaintiff is the State, by and through (then) Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen G. Kane (as Trustee of the waters of the State), the Pennsylvania Insurance Department (which governs and administers the Underground Storage Tank Indemnification Fund), the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (vested with the authority to protect the environment) and the Pennsylvania Underground Storage Tank Indemnification Fund. The complaint names us and more than 50 other petroleum refiners, manufacturers, transporters, distributors and retailers of MTBE or gasoline containing MTBE who are alleged to have manufactured, distributed, stored and sold MTBE gasoline in Pennsylvania. The complaint seeks compensation for natural resource damages and for injuries sustained as a result of “defendants’ unfair and deceptive trade practices and act in the marketing of MTBE and gasoline containing MTBE.” The plaintiffs also seek to recover costs paid or incurred by the State to detect, treat and remediate MTBE from public and private water wells and groundwater. The plaintiffs assert causes of action against all defendants based on multiple theories, including strict liability – defective design; strict liability – failure to warn; public nuisance; negligence; trespass; and violation of consumer protection law. The case was filed in the Court of Common Pleas, Philadelphia County, but was removed by defendants to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania and then transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York so that it may be managed as part of the ongoing MTBE MDL proceedings. In November 2015, plaintiffs filed a Second Amended Complaint naming additional defendants and adding factual allegations against the defendants. We joined with other defendants in the filing of a motion to dismiss the claims against us, which was granted in part and denied in part. The initial discovery phase of the litigation has concluded, and the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York has approved the transfer of certain discovered focus sites to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania for trial. Our focus sites were not among those transferred for trial. The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York has retained the remainder of the focus sites for additional discovery, and upon completion of such discovery, additional pretrial motion practice is anticipated. Once all pretrial motions pertaining to this phase of the litigation are concluded, the remainder of the case is expected to be remanded to the Eastern District of Pennsylvania for trial. Multiple defendants in the case have settled with plaintiff. We continue to vigorously defend the claims made against us. We have recorded an accrual in connection with this matter based on management’s judgment that a loss is probable and the amount is reasonably estimable. Our ultimate liability in this proceeding is uncertain and subject to numerous contingencies, the outcome of which are not yet known. MTBE Litigation – State of Maryland On December 17, 2017, the State of Maryland, by and through the Attorney General on behalf of the Maryland Department of Environment and the Maryland Department of Health (the “State of Maryland”), filed a complaint in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City related to alleged statewide MTBE contamination in Maryland. The complaint was served upon us on January 19, 2018. The complaint names us and more than 60 other defendants. Subsequent to service of the complaint, the defendants removed the case to the United States District Court for the District of Maryland. The complaint seeks compensation for natural resource damages and for injuries sustained as a result of the defendants’ unfair and deceptive trade practices in the marketing of MTBE and gasoline containing MTBE. The plaintiffs also seek to recover costs paid or incurred by the State of Maryland to detect, investigate, treat and remediate MTBE from public and private water wells and groundwater, punitive damages and the award of attorneys’ fees and litigation costs. The plaintiffs assert causes of action against all defendants based on multiple theories, including strict liability – defective design; strict liability – failure to warn; strict liability for abnormally dangerous activity; public nuisance; negligence; trespass; and violations of Titles 4, 7 and 9 of the Maryland Environmental Code. 13 The Company and the State of Maryland have entered into a settlement agreement to resolve all claims in this matter for $0.5 million, which amount was funded by the Company on April 1, 2026. The amount of the settlement payment was previously accrued as a litigation reserve. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company and the State of Maryland are seeking an order from the District Court dismissing the Company from the litigation with prejudice. A motion to dismiss has been filed; however, certain non-settling defendants have filed an opposition to the motion. The matter is currently being briefed, and a ruling is expected in due course. This matter will not be considered final until the settlement and dismissal are approved by the District Court.

Subject to the terms of the Third Restated Credit Agreement and our continued compliance with its provisions, we have the option to extend the term for two six-month periods (for a total of 12 months). (b)Unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Credit Facility were $3.0 million and $3.5 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and are included in prepaid expenses and other assets on our consolidated balance sheets. Credit Facility In January 2025, we entered into a third amended and restated credit agreement (as amended, the “Third Restated Credit Agreement”). The Third Restated Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $450.0 million and includes an accordion feature to increase the revolving commitments or add one or more tranches of term loans up to an additional aggregate amount not to exceed $300.0 million, subject to certain conditions, including one or more new or existing lenders agreeing to provide commitments for such increased amount and that no default or event of default shall have occurred and be continuing under the terms of the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility matures in January 2029, subject to two six-month extensions (for a total of 12 months) exercisable at our option. Our exercise of an extension option is subject to the absence of any default and our compliance with certain conditions, including the payment of extension fees to the lenders under the Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to (i) the sum of a SOFR rate plus a SOFR adjustment of 0.10% plus a margin of 1.30% to 1.90%, or (ii) the sum of a base rate plus a margin of 0.30% to 0.90%, in each case with the margin based on our consolidated total indebtedness to total asset value ratio at the end of each quarterly reporting period. The per annum rate of the unused line fee on the undrawn funds under the Credit Facility is 0.15% to 0.25% based on our daily unused portion of the available Credit Facility. Term Loan In October 2023, we entered into a term loan credit agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”) that provided for a senior unsecured term loan (the "Term Loan") in an aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million. The Term Loan was to mature in October 2025, subject to one twelve-month extension exercisable at our option. In January 2025, we used borrowings under the Third Restated Credit Agreement to repay, in full, the Term Loan. As a result of this early repayment, we recognized approximately $0.9 million in unamortized debt issuance costs, which were expensed as interest expense on our consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025. 14 Senior Unsecured Notes In November 2025, we entered into a note purchase and guarantee agreement with multiple purchasers party thereto pursuant to which, in January 2026, we issued $250.0 million of 5.76% Series U Guaranteed Senior Notes due January 22, 2036 (the “Series U Notes”) to the purchasers and used the proceeds to repay amounts outstanding under our Credit Facility. In November 2024, we entered into a seventh amended and restated note purchase and guarantee agreement with The Prudential Insurance Company of America and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Prudential”) (the "Seventh Amended and Restated Prudential Agreement") pursuant to which, in February 2025, we issued $50.0 million of 5.70% Series T Guaranteed Senior Notes due February 22, 2032 (the “Series T Notes”) to Prudential and used the proceeds to repay the $50.0 million of 4.75% Series C Guaranteed Senior Notes due February 25, 2025 (the “Series C Notes”) outstanding under our sixth amended and restated note purchase and guarantee agreement with Prudential (the "Sixth Amended and Restated Prudential Agreement"). The other senior unsecured notes outstanding as of June 30, 2026 under the Sixth Amended and Restated Prudential Agreement, including (i) $50.0 million of 5.47% Series D Guaranteed Senior Notes due June 21, 2028 (the “Series D Notes”), (ii) $50.0 million of 3.52% Series F Guaranteed Senior Notes due September 12, 2029 (the “Series F Notes”), (iii) $100.0 million of 3.43% Series I Guaranteed Senior Notes due November 25, 2030 (the “Series I Notes”) and (iv) $80.0 million of 3.65% Series Q Guaranteed Senior Notes due January 20, 2033 (the “Series Q Notes”), remain outstanding under the Seventh Amended and Restated Prudential Agreement. In November 2024, we entered into an amended and restated note purchase and guarantee agreement with New York Life Insurance Company and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “New York Life”) (the “Amended and Restated New York Life Agreement”) pursuant to which, in February 2025, we issued $50.0 million of 5.52% Series R Guaranteed Senior Notes due September 12, 2029 (the “Series R Notes”) and $25.0 million of 5.70% Series S Guaranteed Senior Notes due February 22, 2032 (the “Series S Notes”) to New York Life. The other senior unsecured notes outstanding as of June 30, 2026 under our note purchase and guarantee agreement with New York Life (the “New York Life Agreement”), including (i) $25.0 million of 3.45% Series N Guaranteed Senior Notes due February 22, 2032 (the “Series N Notes”) and (ii) $25.0 million of 3.65% Series P Guaranteed Senior Notes due January 20, 2033 (the “Series P Notes”), remain outstanding under the Amended and Restated New York Life Agreement. In February 2022, we entered into a second amended and restated note purchase and guarantee agreement with American General Life Insurance Company and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “AIG”) (the “Second Amended and Restated AIG Agreement”) pursuant to which we issued $55.0 million of 3.45% Series L Guaranteed Senior Notes due February 22, 2032 (the “Series L Notes”) to AIG. The other senior unsecured notes outstanding as of June 30, 2026 under our first amended and restated note purchase and guarantee agreement with AIG (the “First Amended and Restated AIG Agreement”), including (i) $50.0 million of 3.52% Series G Guaranteed Senior Notes due September 12, 2029 (the “Series G Notes”) and (ii) $50.0 million of 3.43% Series J Guaranteed Senior Notes due November 25, 2030 (the “Series J Notes”), remain outstanding under the Second Amended and Restated AIG Agreement. In February 2022, we entered into a second amended and restated note purchase and guarantee agreement with Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “MassMutual”) (the “Second Amended and Restated MassMutual Agreement”) pursuant to which we issued $20.0 million of 3.45% Series M Guaranteed Senior Notes due February 22, 2032 (the “Series M Notes”) and, in January 2023, $20.0 million of 3.65% Series O Guaranteed Senior Notes due January 20, 2033 (the “Series O Notes”) to MassMutual. The other senior unsecured notes outstanding as of June 30, 2026 under our first amended and restated note purchase and guarantee agreement with MassMutual (the “First Amended and Restated MassMutual Agreement”), including (i) $25.0 million of 3.52% Series H Guaranteed Senior Notes due September 12, 2029 (the “Series H Notes”) and (ii) $25.0 million of 3.43% Series K Guaranteed Senior Notes due November 25, 2030 (the “Series K Notes”), remain outstanding under the Second Amended and Restated MassMutual Agreement. In June, 2018, we entered into a note purchase and guarantee agreement with MetLife and certain of its affiliates (collectively, "MetLife") (the “MetLife Agreement”) pursuant to which we issued $50.0 million of 5.47% Series E Guaranteed Senior Notes due June 21, 2028 (the “Series E Notes”) to MetLife. The funded and outstanding Series D Notes, Series E Notes, Series F Note, Series G Notes, Series H Notes, Series I Notes, Series J Notes, Series K Notes, Series L Notes, Series M Notes, Series N Notes, Series O Notes, Series P Notes, Series Q Notes, Series R Notes, Series S Notes, Series T Notes and Series U Notes are collectively referred to as the “Senior Unsecured Notes”. Covenants The Third Restated Credit Agreement and Senior Unsecured Notes contain customary financial covenants such as leverage, 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 Third Restated Credit Agreement and Senior Unsecured Notes also contain customary events of default, including cross defaults to each other, change of control and failure to maintain REIT status (provided that the Senior Unsecured Notes require a mandatory offer to prepay the notes upon a change in control in lieu of a change of control event of default). Any event of default, if not cured or waived in a timely manner, would increase by 200 basis points (2.00%) the interest rate we pay under the Third Restated Credit Agreement and Senior Unsecured Notes, and could result in the acceleration of our indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Facility and Senior Unsecured Notes. We may be prohibited from drawing funds under the Credit Facility if there is 15 any event or condition that constitutes an event of default under the Second Restated Credit Agreement or that, with the giving of any notice, the passage of time, or both, would be an event of default under the Second Restated Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with all of the material terms of the Third Restated Credit Agreement and Senior Unsecured Notes, including the various financial covenants described herein. Debt Maturities As of June 30, 2026, scheduled debt maturities, including balloon payments, are as follows (in thousands): Credit Facility Senior Unsecured Notes Total 2026 $ — $ — $ — 2027 — — — 2028 — 100,000 100,000 2029 (a) 73,000 175,000 248,000 2030 — 175,000 175,000 Thereafter — 550,000 550,000 Total $ 73,000 $ 1,000,000 $ 1,073,000 (a)The Credit Facility matures in January 2029. Subject to the terms of the Third Restated Credit Agreement and our continued compliance with its provisions, we have the option to extend the term for two six-month periods (for a total of 12 months). NOTE 6. — DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS We enter into derivative instruments for risk management purposes only, including derivatives designated as hedging instruments as required by FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and those utilized as economic hedges. Our use of derivative instruments is currently limited to interest rate hedges. We do not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes, where changes in the cash flows of the derivative are not expected to offset changes in cash flows of the hedged item. All derivatives are recognized on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value. For those derivative instruments for which we intend to elect hedge accounting, at the time the derivative contract is entered into, we document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as our risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking the various hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivatives designated as cash flow hedges to specific assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets or to specific forecasted transactions. We also formally assess, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of hedged items. To the extent our derivatives are effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, and otherwise meet the cash flow hedge accounting criteria in accordance with GAAP, changes in the derivatives’ fair value are not included in current earnings, but are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). These changes in fair value will be reclassified into earnings at the time of the forecasted transaction. Ineffectiveness measured in the hedging relationship is recorded in earnings in the period in which it occurs. In October 2023, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to hedge against changes in future cash flows resulting from changes in interest rates on $75.0 million of outstanding variable-rate borrowings over a maximum period ending October 2026. Also, in October 2023, we entered into forward-starting interest rate swap agreements to hedge against changes in interest rates from the trade date through the projected issuance date of $75.0 million of additional variable-rate borrowings, and to hedge against changes in future cash flows resulting from changes in interest rates on the additional $75.0 million of variable-rate borrowings over a maximum period ending October 2026. In October 2025, we committed to a plan to issue new senior unsecured notes and, upon funding in January 2026, use a portion of the proceeds to fully repay the variable-rate borrowings that were hedged by the interest rate swaps. As a result, forecasted variable-rate interest payments after January 2026 were no longer considered probable of occurring and, accordingly, the Company discontinued hedge accounting for all designated interest rate swaps. As of the date of hedge de-designation, the net loss deferred in AOCI related to the swaps was reclassified into earnings during the fourth quarter of 2025 in accordance with ASC 815-30-40-5. The interest rate swaps were terminated in December 2025, resulting in a cash settlement payment of $1.7 million. As of June 30, 2026, we had no outstanding derivative instruments. 16 The following table presents amounts recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivative and hedging activities for the periods presented (in thousands): For the Three Months Ended June 30, For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) $ — $ 183 $ — $ (190 ) NOTE 7. — ENVIRONMENTAL OBLIGATIONS We are subject to numerous 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 are incurred for, among other things, removing USTs, excavation of contaminated soil and water, installing, operating, maintaining and decommissioning remediation systems, monitoring contamination and governmental agency compliance reporting required in connection with contaminated properties. We enter into leases and various other agreements which contractually allocate responsibility between the parties for known and unknown environmental liabilities at or relating to the subject properties. Under applicable law, we are contingently liable for these environmental obligations in the event that our tenant does not satisfy them, and we are required to accrue for environmental liabilities that we believe are allocable to others under our leases if we determine that it is probable that our tenant will not meet its environmental obligations. Our assumptions regarding the ultimate allocation method and share of responsibility that we use to allocate environmental liabilities may change, which has resulted, and may in the future result, in material adjustments to the amounts recorded for environmental litigation accruals and environmental remediation liabilities. We assess whether to accrue for environmental liabilities based upon relevant factors including our tenants’ histories of paying for such obligations, our assessment of their financial capability, and their intent to pay for such obligations. 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. We may ultimately be responsible to pay for environmental liabilities as the property owner if our tenant fails to pay them. 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 our 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. For substantially all of our triple-net leases, our tenants are contractually responsible for compliance with environmental laws and regulations, removal of USTs at the end of their lease term (the cost of which is mainly the responsibility of our tenant, but in certain cases partially paid for by us) and remediation of any environmental contamination that arises during the term of their tenancy. Substantially all of our tenants are also responsible for pre-existing environmental contamination that is discovered during their lease term, except contamination that was known at lease commencement, as to which we have established reserves when appropriate. For the subset of our triple-net leases which cover properties previously leased to Marketing (substantially all of which commenced in 2012), the allocation of responsibility differs from our other triple-net leases as it relates to preexisting known and unknown contamination. Under the terms of our leases covering properties previously leased to Marketing, we agreed to be responsible for environmental contamination that was known at the time the lease commenced, and for unknown environmental contamination which existed prior to commencement of the lease and which is discovered (other than as a result of a voluntary site investigation) during the first 10 years of the lease term (or a shorter period for a minority of such leases) (a “Lookback Period”). A similar lookback period allocation also applies to certain properties previously leased to Marketing which we have sold. After expiration of the applicable Lookback Period, responsibility for all newly discovered contamination at these properties, even if it relates to periods prior to commencement of the lease or sale, is the contractual responsibility of our tenant or buyer as the case may be. Based on the expiration of the Lookback Periods, together with other factors which have significantly mitigated our potential liability for preexisting environmental obligations, including the absence of any contractual obligations on the part of the Company relating to properties which have been sold, quantifiable trends associated with types and ages of USTs at issue, expectations regarding future UST replacements, and historical trends and expectations regarding discovery of preexisting unknown environmental contamination and/or attempted pursuit of us, we have concluded that there is no material continued risk of having to satisfy contractual obligations relating to preexisting unknown environmental contamination. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we removed the remaining $7.7 million of unknown reserve liabilities and, as of June 30, 2026, we had removed $36.0 million of unknown reserve liabilities which had previously been accrued for these properties. As of June 30, 2026, no unknown environmental reserve liabilities remain on our consolidated balance sheet. 17 We measure our environmental remediation liabilities at fair value based on expected future net cash flows, adjusted for inflation and then discount them to present value. We adjust our environmental remediation liabilities quarterly to reflect changes in projected expenditures, changes in present value due to the passage of time and reductions in estimated liabilities as a result of actual expenditures incurred during each quarter. As of June 30, 2026, we had accrued a total of $8.4 million for our prospective environmental remediation obligations, which was our estimate of reasonably estimable environmental remediation liability, including obligations to remove USTs for which we are responsible, net of estimated recoveries. As of December 31, 2025, we had accrued a total of $15.9 million for our prospective environmental remediation obligations. This accrual consisted of (a) $8.2 million, which was our estimate of reasonably estimable environmental remediation liability, including obligations to remove USTs for which we are responsible, net of estimated recoveries and (b) $7.7 million for future environmental liabilities related to preexisting unknown contamination. Environmental liabilities are accreted for the change in present value due to the passage of time and, accordingly, $0.2 million of net accretion expense was recorded for each of the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 and included in environmental expenses. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we recorded credits to environmental expenses aggregating $7.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively, where decreases in estimated remediation costs exceeded the depreciated carrying value of previously capitalized asset retirement costs. Changes in environmental estimates aggregating $41 thousand for each of the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were related to properties that were previously disposed of by us. Environmental expenses also include project management fees, legal fees, and environmental litigation accruals. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we increased the carrying values of certain of our properties by $1.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively, due to changes in estimated environmental remediation costs. The recognition and subsequent changes in estimates in environmental liabilities and the increase or decrease in carrying values of the properties are non-cash transactions which do not appear on our consolidated statements of cash flows. Capitalized asset retirement costs are being depreciated over the estimated remaining life of the UST, a 10-year period if the increase in carrying value is 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 related to capitalized asset retirement costs on our consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, were $0.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively. Capitalized asset retirement costs were $23.9 million for known environmental liabilities as of June 30, 2026, and $29.3 million, including $23.9 million for known environmental liabilities and $5.4 million of reserves for future environmental liabilities, as of December 31, 2025. We recorded impairment charges aggregating $0.9 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, for capitalized asset retirement costs. Environmental exposures are difficult to assess and estimate for numerous reasons, including the amount of data available upon initial assessment 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, changes in costs associated with environmental remediation services and equipment, the availability of state UST remediation funds and the possibility of existing legal claims giving rise to allocation of responsibilities to others, as well as the time it takes to remediate contamination and receive regulatory approval. In developing our liability for estimated environmental remediation obligations on a property-by-property basis, we consider, among other things, 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 derived upon facts known to us at this time, which are subject to significant change as circumstances change, and as environmental contingencies become more clearly defined and reasonably estimable. Any changes to our estimates or our assumptions that form the basis of our estimates may result in our providing an accrual, or adjustments to the amounts recorded, for environmental remediation liabilities. In September 2022, we purchased a 5-year pollution legal liability insurance policy to cover a subset of our properties which we believe present the greatest risk for discovery of preexisting unknown environmental liabilities and for new environmental events. The policy has a $25.0 million aggregate limit and is subject to various self-insured retentions and other conditions and limitations. Our intention in purchasing this policy was to obtain protection for certain properties which we believe have the greatest risk of significant environmental events. 18 NOTE 8. — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY A summary of the changes in stockholders’ equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 is as follows (in thousands except per share amounts): Common Stock Additional Paid-in Dividends Paid in Excess Shares Amount Capital of Earnings Total Balance, March 31, 2026 60,467 $ 605 $ 1,250,223 $ (161,410 ) $ 1,089,418 Net earnings — — — 22,585 22,585 Accumulated other comprehensive income — — — — — Dividends declared — $0.485 per share — — — (30,934 ) (30,934 ) Shares issued pursuant to ATM Program, net 1,461 14 39,776 — 39,790 Shares issued pursuant to dividend reinvestment — — 17 — 17 Stock-based compensation and settlements 4 — 1,628 — 1,628 Balance, June 30, 2026 61,932 $ 619 $ 1,291,644 $ (169,759 ) $ 1,122,504 Balance, December 31, 2025 59,816 $ 598 $ 1,229,340 $ (157,809 ) $ 1,072,129 Net earnings 49,214 49,214 Accumulated other comprehensive income — — — — — Dividends declared — $0.97 per share — — — (61,164 ) (61,164 ) Shares issued pursuant to ATM Program, net 2,111 21 59,691 — 59,712 Shares issued pursuant to dividend reinvestment — — 33 — 33 Stock-based compensation and settlements 5 — 2,580 — 2,580 Balance, June 30, 2026 61,932 $ 619 $ 1,291,644 $ (169,759 ) $ 1,122,504 Common Stock Accumulated Other Comprehensive Additional Paid-in Dividends Paid In Excess Shares Amount Income Capital Of Earnings Total Balance, March 31, 2025 55,441 $ 554 $ (2,237 ) $ 1,099,862 $ (137,059 ) $ 961,120 Net earnings — — — — 14,014 14,014 Accumulated other comprehensive income — — 183 — — 183 Dividends declared — $0.47 per share — — — — (27,394 ) (27,394 ) Shares issued pursuant to equity offering, net 1,150 12 — 32,751 — 32,763 Shares issued pursuant to ATM Program, net — — — (70 ) — (70 ) Shares issued pursuant to dividend reinvestment 1 — — 16 — 16 Stock-based compensation/settlements — — — 1,790 — 1,790 Balance, June 30, 2025 56,592 $ 566 $ (2,054 ) $ 1,134,349 $ (150,439 ) $ 982,422 Balance, December 31, 2024 55,027 $ 550 $ (1,864 ) $ 1,088,390 $ (124,993 ) $ 962,083 Net earnings — — — — 28,800 28,800 Accumulated other comprehensive loss — — (190 ) — — (190 ) Dividends declared — $0.94 per share — — — — (54,246 ) (54,246 ) Shares issued pursuant to equity offering, net 1,150 12 — 32,751 — 32,763 Shares issued pursuant to ATM Program, net 407 4 — 10,938 — 10,942 Shares issued pursuant to dividend reinvestment 1 — — 32 — 32 Stock-based compensation/settlements 7 — — 2,238 — 2,238 Balance, June 30, 2025 56,592 $ 566 $ (2,054 ) $ 1,134,349 $ (150,439 ) $ 982,422 On March 2, 2026, our Board of Directors granted 276,225 restricted stock units (“RSU” or “RSUs”), under our Third Amended and Restated 2004 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan. On March 1, 2025, our Board of Directors granted 293,605 RSUs under our Third Amended and Restated 2004 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan. Equity Offering In February 2026, we completed a follow-on public offering of 4.0 million shares of common stock in connection with forward sales agreements. We expect to settle the forward sales agreements, typically within 12 months, via physical delivery of the outstanding shares of common stock in exchange for gross cash proceeds of approximately $129.9 million. As of June 30, 2026, no shares were settled. In July 2024, we completed a follow-on public offering of 4.0 million shares of common stock in connection with forward sales agreements. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we settled all 4.0 million shares and realized net proceeds of $113.6 million after deducting fees and expenses and making certain other adjustments as provided in the equity distribution agreement. 19 ATM Program In February 2023, we established and, in February 2024, we amended, an at-the-market equity offering program (the “ATM Program”), pursuant to which we are able to issue and sell shares of our common stock with an aggregate sales price of up to $350.0 million through a consortium of banks acting as our sales agents or acting as forward sellers on behalf of any forward purchasers pursuant to forward sales agreements. Sales of the shares of common stock may be made, as needed, from time to time in at-the-market offerings as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act, including by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the New York Stock Exchange or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or as otherwise agreed to with the applicable agent. The use of forward sales agreements allow us to establish a share price for the sale of shares of common stock at the time the forward sales agreements become effective, but defer receiving the proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock until a later date. To account for the forward sales agreements, we considered the accounting guidance governing financial instruments and derivatives. To date, we have concluded that our forward sales agreements are not liabilities as they do not embody obligations to repurchase our shares nor do they embody obligations to issue a variable number of shares for which the monetary value are predominantly fixed, varying with something other than the fair value of the shares, or varying inversely in relation to our shares. We also evaluated whether the forward sales agreements meet the derivatives and hedging guidance scope exception to be accounted for as equity instruments. We concluded that the forward sales agreements are classifiable as equity contracts based on the following assessments: (i) none of the agreements’ exercise contingencies that are based on observable markets or indices besides those related to the market for our own stock price and operations, and (ii) none of the settlement provisions precluded the agreements from being indexed to our own stock. We also consider the potential dilution resulting from the forward sales agreements on our earnings per share calculations. We use the treasury stock method to determine the dilution resulting from the forward sales agreements during the period of time prior to settlement. ATM Direct Issuances During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, no shares of common stock were issued under the ATM Program. Future sales, if any, will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including among others, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock, determinations by us of the appropriate sources of funding for us and potential uses of funding available to us. ATM Forward Agreements During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we settled 1,460,545 and 2,110,545 shares of common stock, respectively subject to outstanding forward sales agreements and realized net proceeds of $39.8 million and $59.7 million, respectively, after deducting fees and expenses and making certain other adjustments as provided in the equity distribution agreement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we settled 406,727 shares of common stock subject to outstanding forward sales agreements and realized net proceeds of $10.9 million after deducting fees and expenses and making certain other adjustments as provided in the equity distribution agreement. The following table summarizes activity under our ATM Program in connection with forward sales agreements for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 ($ in thousands): For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 As of June 30, 2026 Period Entered Into Forward Sales Agreements Shares Sold Shares Settled Net Proceeds Received Shares Remaining Anticipated Gross Proceeds Remaining Three Months Ended December 31, 2024 650,000 650,000 $ 19,922 — $ — Three Months Ended September 30, 2025 1,018,695 1,018,695 27,548 — — Three Months Ended December 31, 2025 441,850 441,850 12,242 — — Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 1,812,000 — — 1,812,000 60,614 Total 3,922,545 2,110,545 $ 59,712 1,812,000 $ 60,614 20 For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 As of June 30, 2025 Period Entered Into Forward Sales Agreements Shares Sold Shares Settled Net Proceeds Received Shares Remaining Anticipated Gross Proceeds Remaining Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 406,727 406,727 $ 10,942 — $ — Three Months Ended December 31, 2024 992,696 — — 992,696 32,277 Total 1,399,423 406,727 $ 10,942 992,696 $ 32,277 We expect to settle outstanding forward sales agreements, typically within 12 months of the respective agreement dates, via physical delivery of the outstanding shares of common stock in exchange for cash proceeds, although we may elect cash settlement or net share settlement for all or a portion of our obligations under the forward sales agreements, subject to certain conditions. Dividends For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we paid regular quarterly dividends of $60.1 million or $0.97 per share. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we paid regular quarterly dividends of $53.4 million or $0.94 per share. Dividend Reinvestment Plan Our dividend reinvestment plan provides our common stockholders with a convenient and economical method of acquiring additional shares of common stock by reinvesting all or a portion of their dividend distributions. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we issued 1,067 and 1,123 shares of common stock, respectively, under the dividend reinvestment plan and received proceeds of approximately $33 thousand and $32 thousand, respectively. Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation expense using the fair value method was $2.7 million and $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and is included in general and administrative expense on our consolidated statements of operations. NOTE 9. — EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE Basic and diluted earnings per common share gives effect, utilizing the two-class method, to the potential dilution from the issuance of shares of our common stock in settlement of RSUs which provide for non-forfeitable dividend equivalents equal to the dividends declared per common share. Basic and diluted 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 period. The following table is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share using the two-class method (in thousands except per share data): For the Three Months Ended June 30, For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 Net earnings $ 22,585 $ 14,014 $ 49,214 $ 28,800 Less dividend equivalents attributable to RSUs outstanding (897 ) (795 ) (1,794 ) (1,590 ) Net earnings attributable to common stockholders used in basic and diluted earnings per share calculation $ 21,688 $ 13,219 $ 47,420 $ 27,210 Weighted average common shares outstanding: Basic 60,580 55,530 60,225 55,297 Incremental shares from stock-based compensation 77 54 29 33 Incremental shares from Equity Offering forward agreements 27 22 — 102 Incremental shares from ATM Program forward agreements 55 — 99 11 Diluted 60,739 55,606 60,353 55,443 Basic earnings per common share $ 0.36 $ 0.24 $ 0.79 $ 0.49 Diluted earnings per common share $ 0.36 $ 0.24 $ 0.79 $ 0.49 21 NOTE 10. — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Debt Instruments As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the fair value of borrowings under the Credit Facility was $73.1 million and $251.3 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the fair values of borrowings under our Senior Unsecured Notes were $953.6 million and $708.4 million, respectively. The fair values of borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were determined using a discounted cash flow technique that incorporates a market interest yield curve with adjustments for duration, risk profile and borrowings outstanding, which are based on unobservable inputs within Level 3 of the Fair Value Hierarchy. Derivative Instruments As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we were not party to any derivative instruments and no derivative positions were included on our consolidated balance sheets. Periodically, we use interest rate swap agreements to manage our interest rate risk. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis of the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves. Supplemental Retirement Plan We have mutual fund assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 1 inputs. We have a Supplemental Retirement Plan for executives.

Substantially all of our properties are leased on a triple-net basis to convenience store operators, petroleum distributors, express tunnel car wash operators, and other automotive-related and retail tenants. Our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), which is our Chief Executive Officer, does not distinguish or group operations based on geography, size, type or other basis when assessing the financial performance of our properties. Our operating properties have similar economic characteristics and provide similar products and services to consumers. Accordingly, we manage and evaluate our operations as a single reportable segment based on our consolidated financial statements for financial reporting and disclosure purposes. 23 The CODM is responsible for overseeing our operations and making key strategic decisions, including the allocation of resources, evaluating financial performance, and determining the overall direction of our Company. The CODM receives consolidated financial and operational data to assess performance and make these decisions. Our measure of segment profit or loss is net earnings. The CODM also reviews significant expenses associated with the Company’s single reportable segment which are presented on our consolidated statements of operations. The CODM reviews net earnings and the relevant components thereof that are directly reflected on our consolidated statements of operations. The CODM is also regularly provided the reportable segment level asset information, real estate held for use, which is directly reflected on our consolidated balance sheets. Refer to the descriptions below for further details: •Net earnings: this metric represents the total profit after accounting for all revenues, expenses and other costs. It reflects our overall financial performance and profitability. Net earnings used by our CODM to identify underlying trends in the performance of our business and make comparisons with the financial performance of our competitors. Net earnings are reported on our consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. •Revenue from rental properties: a component of net earnings, this balance represents the total income derived from long-term, triple-net leases with tenants. It is the primary source of revenue for us and reflects the effectiveness of our real estate portfolio in generating rental income. Revenue from rental properties is reported in the revenue section on our consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. •Total operating expenses: a component of net earnings, operating expenses include all costs related to the maintenance and management of the properties, including property costs and general and administrative expenses. These expenses are critical to maintaining the portfolio’s long-term profitability and are disclosed under the operating expenses section on our consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive Income. •Real estate held for use: this total represents the value of properties that we actively use to generate rental income. It is a core asset-based metric and a key driver of our long-term growth. Managing real estate held for use is essential for value appreciation and strategic portfolio management, which enables us to make informed decisions regarding acquisitions, divestitures, and overall asset allocation to support sustainable growth and are disclosed in the real estate section on our consolidated balance sheets.
