DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 33-49275) (the “Registration Statement”) of Sunoco, Inc. (the “Company”), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 30, 1992. The Registration Statement registered shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $1.00 per share, and an indeterminate amount of participation interests for issuance pursuant to the Company’s Employee Option Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan has been terminated, all participation in the Plan has ceased and there are no interests remaining outstanding under the Plan. Accordingly, the Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to deregister the shares of common stock and the participation interests of the Company that were registered on the Registration Statement but were not issued at the termination of the Plan.
