NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Quaker State Corporation and Subsidiaries
               (unaudited)


1.     In the opinion of management of Quaker State Corporation (the company),
       the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments which
       are necessary to a fair statement of the results for such periods. All
       of these adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These statements
       should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included as
       a part of the 1994 annual report on Form 10-K.

2.     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is
       determined on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) basis for all crude oil,
       the majority of company refined petroleum and vehicular lighting
       products; and on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis for other
       inventories.  The reserve to reduce the carrying value of inventories
       from FIFO basis to LIFO basis amounted to $22,255,000 at June 30, 1995,
       and  $20,267,000 at December 31, 1994.

       In the second quarter of 1995 certain inventory quantities were reduced
       resulting in liquidations of LIFO inventory. The effect of these
       liquidations was an increase in net income of $900,000, or $.03 per
       share.

3.     In December 1993, the United States  commenced a lawsuit against the
       company in the U.S.District Court for Northern District of West
       Virginia. The complaint alleges the company violated the federal
       Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and the federal Clean Air Act at
       the Congo refinery on various dates starting in 1980 and seeks civil
       penalties not to exceed $25,000 per day for each violation.  The
       company intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit. However, the
       ultimate outcome of this litigation cannot presently be determined.

            In addition, the company has received notices from the EPA and
       others that it is a "potentially responsible party" relative to
       certain waste disposal sites identified by the EPA and may be required
       to share in the cost of cleanup. The company has accrued for all
       matters which are probable and can be reasonably estimated.

            In April 1994, purported class actions were commenced in the U.S.
       District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania against
       the company and two other oil companies. The complaints allege
       violations of Section 1 of the Sherman Act. In July 1995, the United
       States District Court certified the proceeding as a class action and
       denied the defendants' motion for summary judgment. The company
       believes there is no basis for the allegations in the complaint and
       intends to defend the matter vigorously.

            Contingent liabilities of an indeterminate amount exist in
       connection with suits and claims arising in the ordinary course of 
       business.

            In the opinion of management, all matters discussed above are
       adequately accrued for or covered by insurance or, if not so
       provided for, are without merit or the disposition is not anticipated
       to have a material effect on the company's financial position; however,
       one or more of these matters could have a material effect on future
       quarterly or annual results of operations when resolved.

4.     The effective tax rate of 38% for continuing operations is higher than
       the 35% federal rate due to the added impact of state and foreign
       taxes. The effective tax rate for continuing operations of 38% is lower
       than the 1994 rate of 56% due to lower income from continuing
       operations, a reduction in the estimated state tax rate, and other 
       changes in estimates.

5.     On July 11, 1995, Quaker State completed the acquisition of all
       the stock of Slick 50 through the merger of Slick 50 into a wholly owned
       subsidiary of Quaker State named Quaker State--Slick 50, Inc. The
       consideration given in the acquisition included  payment of
       approximately $22,000,000 in cash and the issuance of 1,260,403 shares
       of Quaker State capital stock. In addition, the company paid 
       approximately $11,000,000 to satisfy certain Slick 50 indebtedness
       outstanding prior to the closing.  Under the terms of the Merger
       Agreement, additional consideration may be payable by Quaker State for
       Slick 50 stock depending upon the merged company's performance during
       the fiscal years ending December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998 but subject to
       offset for indemnification obligations of Slick 50 stockholders under
       the Merger Agreement.
       
            The source of funds used for cash consideration in the transaction
       and the payment of Slick 50 indebtedness was borrowing under Quaker
       State's $45,000,000 Revolving Credit Agreement.
            
            The acquisition will be accounted for under the purchase method.

6.     On April 28, 1995 the company announced plans to restructure its
       organization to integrate recent acquisitions, consolidate management
       and administrative activities, and move its corporate headquarters and
       Motor Oil Division to the Dallas, Texas area. The company plans to
       complete the move by the first quarter of 1996. The pre-tax costs and
       expenses associated with the restructuring and relocating the workforce
       and closing the headquarters facility in Oil City, Pennsylvania and its
       administrative unit in Shreveport, Louisiana will approximate
       $25,000,000. A charge of $15,800,000 was recorded in the second quarter,
       of which $9,280,000 related directly to the Motor Oil Division. The
       after tax restructuring charge recorded in the quarter was $9,490,000.
       The remainder will be expensed as incurred.

7.     On April 28, 1995 the company announced that the Board of Directors
       approved a $25,000,000 development project for the Red River port in
       Shreveport, Louisiana, which will become the company's manufacturing and
       technical headquarters.

8.     The following schedule is prepared on a pro forma basis as though
       Specialty and Westland had been acquired as of the beginning of 1994,
       after including the impact of adjustments, such as amortization of
       intangible assets, intercompany sales elimination and related tax
       effects.

       The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of what would have
       occurred if the acquisition had been in effect for the periods
       presented. In addition, they are not intended to be a projection of 
       future results and do not reflect any synergies that might be achieved
       from combining the operations.

9.     In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Standard
       No. 121 "Accounting  for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
       Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" which establishes accounting
       standards for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable
       intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets to be held and used
       and for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be
       disposed of. The new Standard must be implemented in 1996. The company
       is currently evaluating what effect, if any, this Standard will have on
       its financial position and results of operations.

10.    On May 25, 1995 the company's stockholders approved  the Amendment of
       Quaker State's Certificate of Incorporation to increase the authorized
       number of shares of Quaker State's capital stock from 37,500,000 to
       95,000,000 shares.

11.    On July 26, 1995 Quaker State signed a definitive agreement to sell
       most of the assets of its Natural Gas Exploration and Production
       Division to Belden & Blake Corporation of  Canton, Ohio for a purchase
       price of $56,000,000 subject to certain possible adjustments.
       Accordingly, the operating results of Natural Gas Exploration and
       Production  have been reported as a discontinued operations in the
       accompanying Consolidated Statement of  Operations for the period ending
       June 30, 1995. Prior year  and  prior period financial statements have
       been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
       Completion of the transaction occured on August 9, 1995. The company 
       expects to record a gain from the sale of these assets which will be 
       reported under discontinued operations in the third quarter.

                   QUAKER STATE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

   Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition

                                    -----

The consolidated financial statements and related notes including information
about Quaker State Corporation's (the company) operations in different segments
included in this Form 10-Q should be read as an integral part of this review.

                                    -----

      Quaker State Corporation reported a 1995 second quarter net loss of
$3,225,000, or $.10 per share, compared to net income of $5,069,000, or $.19
per share, last year. Six month net income was $2,371,000, or $.08 per share,
compared to $10,652,000, or $.39 per share, in 1994.  The weighted average
shares of capital stock outstanding for the period ending June 30, 1995
increased over 4,000,000 shares versus 1994, primarily as the result of issuing
additional shares in the third quarter of 1994 for the acquisition of the
Specialty and Westland companies.  Sales and operating revenues from continuing
operations were $257,698,000 and $497,231,000 for the second quarter and six
months of 1995 compared to $161,545,000 and $330,060,000 for these periods in
1994. The 1995 revenues included $88,010,000 and $164,596,000 of additional
sales for the second quarter and six months from the Specialty and Westland
companies that were acquired in the third quarter of 1994.  The 1995 second
quarter and six months expenses include a pretax restructuring charge of
$15,800,000 related to its announced relocation to the Dallas, Texas area.
Total costs under the restructuring plan are estimated to be
$25,000,000 with the remainder of such costs to be expensed as incurred.  This
charge accounted for the pretax loss from continuing operations of $8,146,000
and $495,000 for the second quarter and six months of 1995. Operating profits 
from continuing operations, excluding restructuring charges, in 1995 increased 
39%, to $13,038,000, in the second quarter and 31%, to $24,838,000 for the 
six months reflecting higher sales for branded motor oil and improved Q Lube 
operating results.  

                                    
      On May 25, 1995, the company and Belden & Blake Corporation signed a
letter of intent for Belden & Blake Corporation to acquire most of the assets
of the company's Natural Gas Exploration & Production Division (E&P).  As a
result, the E&P operations have been accounted for as a discontinued operation
on the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the period ending June 30, 1995
and its operating results have been segregated and reported as a discontinued
operation. Prior year and prior period financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to this presentation. Income from discontinued
operations in 1994 also include the insurance operations which were
discontinued last year.  Income from discontinued operations was $1,303,000, or
$.04 per share, and $2,678,000, or $.09 per share, for the second quarter and
first six months of 1995 compared to $3,604,000, or $.14 per share, and
$6,982,000, or $.26 per share, last year.

      Motor Oil Division operating profits, excluding restructuring charges of
$9,280,000, were $6,700,000 and $12,874,000 for the second quarter and first
six months of 1995 compared to $3,064,000 and $8,268,000 last year.  Revenues
of $208,493,000 and $399,577,000 in these periods increased 86% and 70%  over
1994 and included the 1995 sales from the Specialty and Westland companies that
were purchased in the third quarter of 1994.  Operating profits improved as a
result of a 14% second quarter and 2%

                   QUAKER STATE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

   Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition

                                    -----

year-to-date increase in branded motor oil sales volume. In addition, refinery
product margins improved as a result of higher sales prices for base stocks,
gasoline and fuel oil. Operating results also include $1,500,000 of LIFO
inventory profits recorded in the second quarter as a result of liquidating
certain inventory quantities. In the division's private label and industrial
lubricants business, operating results improved in the second quarter as first
quarter sales price increases partially offset the impact of higher material
costs.

      Q Lube reported second quarter operating profits of $2,481,000 on sales
and operating revenues of $31,550,000 compared to profits of $1,478,000 on
revenues of $27,967,000 last year. Six month operating profits were $4,140,000
on sales and operating revenues of $60,264,000 compared to profits of
$2,779,000 on revenues of $54,126,000 in 1994. Year-to-date car counts in 1995
increased 6% and average per car sales were up 5% to account for the revenue
and operating result improvements. Higher advertising, depreciation and
amortization expenses resulting from the conversion of the fast lube outlets to
the new Q Lube format partially offset the improvement in operating results.
This conversion will continue in 1995 with approximately 100 additional stores
expected to be completed by the end of the year.

      Truck-Lite operating profits in the second quarter and six months of 1995
were $3,581,000 and $7,343,000 compared to $4,570,000 and $7,434,000 in 1994.
Revenues were down 10% to $23,934,000 in the second quarter and down 3% to
$49,617,000 for the six months. Lower sales volume and negative product mix
adversely affected operating results. Automotive sales slowed down in the
second quarter as the overall car market has softened. Management was able to
reduce year-to-date operating expenses by approximately $1,500,000 to 
partially offset the slowdown in the business.

      Year-to-date  corporate income of $2,577,000 compared to $1,253,000 and
included approximately $1,000,000 of additional royalty payments received  for
coal deliveries made by the purchaser of a long-term coal sales agreement. Six
month interest expense in 1995 increased 30% to $3,023,000 as a result of  debt
assumed in  the acquisition of Westland Oil Company, Inc. in the third quarter
of 1994. Corporate expenses in 1995 were $4,811,000 and $9,087,000 for the
quarter and six months compared to $5,372,000 and $9,532,000 last year. Lower
salary and benefit expenses account for  the reductions in corporate expenses.
An unusual charge for $15,800,000 was recorded in the second quarter to
reserve for severance costs, employee benefit expenses and the write-off of
assets related to the company's relocation to the Dallas, Texas area. 
Approximately $9,280,000 of this charge relates to the Motor Oil Division.

      The effective tax rate of 38% for continuing operations is higher than
the 35% federal rate due to the added impact of state and foreign taxes.  The
effective tax rate for continuing operations of 38% is lower than the 1994 rate
of 56% due to lower income from continuing operations, a reduction in the
estimated state tax rate, and other changes in estimates.

        Cash provided by operations for the first six months of 1995 was
$2,246,000 compared to $19,069,000 in 1994. This decrease resulted from
additional working capital requirements and the loss of operating cash flows
from the insurance operations which were sold in the third quarter of 1994. 
Cash used  by discontinued coal activities in 1995 was $5,757,000 compared to
$8,868,000 last year. Cash used by investing activities included capital
expenditures of $16,189,000 and proceeds from the sale of property and
equipment of $3,587,000, of which $412,000 related to the discontinued coal
operations.  Cash used in financing activities was $7,801,000 and included
$6,303,000 paid for dividends and $1,464,000 paid on long-term debt, primarily
related to the Westland subsidiary acquired in 1994.                          
 
      On April 28, 1995, the company announced that the Board of Directors
approved a $25,000,000 development project for the Red River port in
Shreveport, Louisiana which will become the company's lubricants manaufacturing
and technical headquarters.
      

      On May 25, 1995 the company's stockholders approved an amendment to the 
company's Certificate of Incorporation to increase the authorized number of 
shares of Quaker State's capital stock from 37,500,000 to 95,000,000 shares.

      On July 11, 1995, the company completed an Agreement and Plan of Merger
to acquire Slick 50, Inc. (Slick 50), by merger into a newly formed wholly-owned
subsidiary of the company. The merger consideration included the payment of
approximately $22,000,000 in cash and the issuance of 1,260,000 shares of
Quaker State capital stock. In addition, the company paid approximately 
$11,000,000 to satisfy certain Slick 50 indebtedness outstanding prior to the
closing. The operating results of Slick 50 will be reported  as part of the
Motor Oil Division business segment from the date of acquisition. (Refer to
Note 5.)

      On July 26, 1995 the company signed a definitive agreement to sell
certain  assets of its Natural Gas Exploration and Production Division to
Belden & Blake Corporation of Canton Ohio for a purchase price of $56,000,000
subject to certain possible adjustments. Completion of this transaction
occurred on August 9, 1995. The company expects to record a gain from the sale
of these assets which will be reported under discontinued operations in the
third quarter. (Refer to Note 11.)  The company is in the process of selling
the remaining Natural Gas Exploration and Production Division assets.

      On July 27, 1995 the Board of Directors of the company declared a
quarterly dividend of 10 cents per share payable  September 15 to shareholders
of record as of  August 15, 1995.

      
      In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Standard
No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed Of" which establishes accounting standards for the
impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill
related to those assets to be held and used and for long-lived assets and
certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of.  The new Standard must be
implemented in 1996.  The company is currently evaluating what effect, if any,
this Standard will have on its financial position and results of operations.

                  QUAKER STATE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES




Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
        -----------------

        In its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994,
Quaker State reported that in April 1994 Lazy Oil, Inc., a Pennsylvania
corporation, commenced a class action in the United States District Court for
the Western District of Pennsylvania against Witco Corporation, Quaker State
and Pennzoil Company. Three similar actions were subsequently commenced and
were consolidated with the original action. The consolidated amended complaint
alleges violations of Section 1 of the Sherman Act, based upon an allegation
that the defendants, since at least January 1, 1981, combined and conspired to
fix, lower, maintain and stabilize the purchase price of Pennsylvania Grade
crude oil purchased from the plaintiffs and others. In July 1995, the United
States District Court certified the proceeding as a class action and denied the
defendants' motion for summary judgement, without prejudice to renewal after
the close of discovery. Discovery in this proceeding is continuing.

oil and gas wells in New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia,
approximately 250,000 leasehold acres and approximately 250 miles of gas
gathering lines. There is no material relationship between Quaker State and
