Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On July 25, 2007, Sunoco, Inc. (the "Company") amended its existing five-year competitive advance and revolving credit facility agreement, dated as of June 30, 2006, by and among the Company as Borrower, the various lenders party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as the Administrative Agent (the "Credit Agreement").

The amendment: (a) extends the maturity of $1.2245 billion of the $1.3 billion credit facility for an additional year, from August 12, 2011 to August 12, 2012, (b) increases the letter of credit sub-facility limit to the entire aggregate commitment; (c) includes a $150 million sub-facility for same-day borrowings in the form of swingline loans; (d) re-defines indebtedness under the facility to exclude designated hybrid equity securities; and (e) eliminates the limitation on the number of extensions of maturity that the Company may request.

The foregoing brief description of the Company's amended and restated Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment and Restatement Agreement, dated as of July 25, 2007, by and among the Company, the various lenders party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the "Amendment and Restatement Agreement").
