Those statements made by representatives of Sunoco during the course of Sunoco’s earnings conference
call that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements intended to be covered by the safe harbor
provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934. These forward-looking statements are based upon a number of assumptions by Sunoco concerning
future conditions, any or all of which may ultimately prove to be inaccurate.  Forward-looking statements are
inherently uncertain and necessarily involve risks that may affect Sunoco's business prospects and
performance, causing actual results to differ materially from those discussed during the conference call.  Such
risks and uncertainties include, by way of example and not of limitation: general business and economic
conditions; competitive products and pricing; changes in refining, chemical and other product margins; variation
in petroleum-based commodity prices and availability of crude oil supply or transportation; fluctuations in supply
of feedstocks and demand for products manufactured; changes in operating conditions and costs; changes in
the expected level of environmental capital, operating or remediation spending; potential equipment
malfunction; potential labor relations problems; the legislative or regulatory environment; plant
construction/repair delays, non-performance by major customers, suppliers or other business partners; and
political and economic conditions including the impact of potential terrorist acts  and international hostilities.  
These and other applicable risks and uncertainties have been described more fully in Sunoco's Second Quarter
Form  10-Q, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 7, 2003.  Unpredictable or unknown
factors not discussed herein could also have material adverse effects on forward-looking statements.  All
forward-looking statements included in this conference call are expressly qualified in their entirety by the
foregoing cautionary statements.

Sunoco undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new
information or future events.
