VORNADO REALTY TRUST

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1.     Organization

Vornado Realty Trust (“Vornado”) is a fully‑integrated real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and conducts its business through, and substantially all of its interests in properties are held by, Vornado Realty L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”).  Accordingly, Vornado’s cash flow and ability to pay dividends to its shareholders is dependent upon the cash flow of the Operating Partnership and the ability of its direct and indirect subsidiaries to first satisfy their obligations to creditors.  Vornado is the sole general partner of, and owned approximately 93.6% of the common limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership at June 30, 2012.  All references to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “Vornado” refer to Vornado Realty Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership.

2.    Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and include the accounts of Vornado, and the Operating Partnership and its consolidated partially owned entities.  All intercompany amounts have been eliminated. In our opinion, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and changes in cash flows have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted.  These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2011, as filed with the SEC.

We have made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.  Certain prior year balances have been reclassified in order to conform to current year presentation.

3.    Recently Issued Accounting Literature

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Update No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS (“ASU No. 2011-04”).  ASU No. 2011-04 provides a uniform framework for fair value measurements and related disclosures between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and requires additional disclosures, including: (i) quantitative information about unobservable inputs used, a description of the valuation processes used, and a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements to changes in the unobservable inputs, for Level 3 fair value measurements; (ii) fair value of financial instruments not measured at fair value but for which disclosure of fair value is required, based on their levels in the fair value hierarchy; and (iii) transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.  The adoption of this update on January 1, 2012 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, but resulted in additional fair value measurement disclosures (see Note 14 – Fair Value Measurements).

4.     Acquisitions

On July 5, 2012, we entered into an agreement to acquire a retail condominium located at 666 Fifth Avenue at 53rd Street for $707,000,000. The property has 126 feet of frontage on Fifth Avenue and contains 114,000 square feet, 39,000 square feet in fee and 75,000 square feet by long-term lease from the 666 Fifth Avenue office condominium, which is 49.5% owned by Vornado. The acquisition will be funded by property level debt and proceeds from asset sales, and is expected to close in the fourth quarter, subject to customary closing conditions.

4.     Acquisitions- continued

On July 30, 2012, we entered into a lease with Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (NYSE:HST), under which we will redevelop the retail and signage components of the Marriott Marquis Times Square Hotel.  The lease contains options based on cash flow which, if exercised, would lead to our ownership.  The Marriott Marquis with over 1,900 rooms is one of the largest hotels in Manhattan.  It is located in the heart of the bow-tie of Times Square and spans the entire block front from 45th Street to 46th Street on Broadway.  The Marriott Marquis is directly across from our 1540 Broadway iconic retail property leased to Forever 21 and Disney flagship stores.  We plan to spend as much as $140 million to redevelop and substantially expand the existing retail space, including converting the below grade parking garage into retail, and creating six-story, 300 feet wide block front dynamic LED signs.

5.     Vornado Capital Partners Real Estate Fund (the “Fund”)

In February 2011, the Fund’s subscription period closed with an aggregate of $800,000,000 of capital commitments, of which we committed $200,000,000.  We are the general partner and investment manager of the Fund, which has an eight-year term and a three-year investment period. During the investment period, which concludes in July 2013, the Fund is our exclusive investment vehicle for all investments that fit within its investment parameters, as defined. The Fund is accounted for under the AICPA Investment Company Guide and its investments are reported on its balance sheet at fair value, with changes in value each period recognized in earnings.  We consolidate the accounts of the Fund into our consolidated financial statements, retaining the fair value basis of accounting.

On April 26, 2012, the Fund acquired 520 Broadway, a 112,000 square foot office building located in Santa Monica, California for $59,650,000 and subsequently placed a $30,000,000 mortgage loan on the property.  The three-year loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% and has two one-year extension options.

On June 28, 2012, the Fund made an investment in an unconsolidated subsidiary that, on July 2, 2012, acquired 1100 Lincoln Road, a 167,000 square foot retail property, the western anchor of the Lincoln Road Shopping District in Miami Beach, Florida, for $132,000,000.  The purchase price consisted of $66,000,000 in cash and a $66,000,000 mortgage loan.  The three-year loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.75% and has two one-year extension options.

At June 30, 2012 , the Fund ha d seven investments with an aggregate fair value of approximately $ 460 , 496 ,000 , or $40,260,000 in excess of cost, and had remaining unfunded commitments of $330,753,000, of which our share was $82,688,250.  Below is a summary of income from the Fund for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

7.    Marketable Securities and Derivative Instruments

Marketable Securities

Our portfolio of marketable securities is comprised of debt and equity securities that are classified as available for sale.  Available for sale securities are presented on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value.  Gains and losses resulting from the mark-to-market of these securities are included in “other comprehensive (loss) income.”  Gains and losses are recognized in earnings only upon the sale of the securities and are recorded based on the weighted average cost of such securities.

In the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we sold certain marketable securities for aggregate proceeds of $58,460,000 and $19,301,000, resulting in net gains of $3,582,000 and $2,139,000, respectively, of which $3,582,000 and $48,000 were recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

Investment in J.C. Penney Company, Inc. (“J.C. Penney”) (NYSE: JCP)

We own 23,400,000 J.C. Penney common shares, or 11.0% of its outstanding common shares.  Below are the details of our investment.

We own 18,584,010 common shares at an average economic cost of $25.76 per share, or $478,677,000 in the aggregate.  As of June 30, 2012, these shares have an aggregate fair value of $433,193,000, based on J.C. Penney’s closing share price of $23.31 per share.  Unrealized gains and losses from the mark-to-market of these shares are included in “other comprehensive (loss) income.”  The three and six months ended June 30, 2012 include $225,383,000 and $220,180,000, respectively, of unrealized losses.  The three and six months ended June 30, 2011 include $25,611,000 of unrealized losses and $41,292,000 of unrealized gains, respectively.

We also own an economic interest in 4,815,990 common shares through a forward contract executed on October 7, 2010, at a weighted average strike price of $28.93 per share, or $139,348,000 in the aggregate.  The contract may be settled, at our election, in cash or common shares, in whole or in part, at any time prior to October 9, 2012.  The strike price per share increases at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 80 basis points.  The contract is a derivative instrument that does not qualify for hedge accounting treatment.  Gains and losses from the mark-to-market of the underlying common shares are recognized in “interest and other investment (loss) income, net” on our consolidated statements of income.  In the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we recognized losses of $58,732,000 and $57,687,000, respectively, from the mark-to-market of the underlying common shares, and as of June 30, 2012, have funded $45,050,000 in connection with this derivative position.  In the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized a loss of $6,762,000 and income of $10,401,000, respectively, from the mark-to-market of the underlying common shares.

At June 30, 2012, the aggregate economic net loss on our investment in J.C. Penney, after dividends, was $43,224,000, based on our economic cost of $26.41 per share.

8.    Investments in Partially Owned Entities

Toys “R” Us (“Toys”)

As of June 30, 2012, we own 32.5% of Toys.  The business of Toys is highly seasonal.  Historically, Toys’ fourth quarter net income accounts for more than 80% of its fiscal year net income.  We account for our investment in Toys under the equity method and record our 32.5% share of Toys net income or loss on a one-quarter lag basis because Toys’ fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest January 31, and our fiscal year ends on December 31.  As of June 30, 2012, the carrying amount of our investment in Toys does not differ materially from our share of the equity in the net assets of Toys on a purchase accounting basis.

As of June 30, 2012, we own 1,654,068 Alexander’s common shares, or approximately 32.4% of Alexander’s common equity.  We manage, lease and develop Alexander’s properties pursuant to agreements which expire in March of each year and are automatically renewable.  As of June 30, 2012, Alexander’s owed us $40,480,000 in fees under these agreements.

As of June 30, 2012, the market value of our investment in Alexander’s, based on Alexander’s June 30, 2012 closing share price of $431.11, was $713,085,000, or $524,376,000 in excess of the carrying amount on our consolidated balance sheet.  As of June 30, 2012, the carrying amount of our investment in Alexander’s, excluding amounts owed to us, exceeds our share of the equity in the net assets of Alexander’s by approximately $58,552,000.  The majority of this basis difference resulted from the excess of our purchase price for the Alexander’s common stock acquired over the book value of Alexander’s net assets.  Substantially all of this basis difference was allocated, based on our estimates of the fair values of Alexander’s assets and liabilities, to real estate (land and buildings).  We are amortizing the basis difference related to the buildings into earnings as additional depreciation expense over their estimated useful lives.  This amortization is not material to our share of equity in Alexander’s net income.  The basis difference related to the land will be recognized upon disposition of our investment.

Lexington Realty Trust (“Lexington”) (NYSE: LXP)

As of June 30, 2012, we own 18,468,969 Lexington common shares, or approximately 11.9% of Lexington’s common equity.  We account for our investment in Lexington under the equity method because we believe we have the ability to exercise significant influence over Lexington’s operating and financial policies, based on, among other factors, our representation on Lexington’s Board of Trustees and the level of our ownership in Lexington as compared to other shareholders.  We record our pro rata share of Lexington’s net income or loss on a one-quarter lag basis because we file our consolidated financial statements on Form 10-K and 10-Q prior to the time that Lexington files its consolidated financial statements.

Based on Lexington’s June 30, 2012 closing share price of $8.47, the market value of our investment in Lexington was $156,432,000, or $102,877,000 in excess of the June 30, 2012 carrying amount on our consolidated balance sheet.  As of June 30, 2012, the carrying amount of our investment in Lexington was less than our share of the equity in the net assets of Lexington by approximately $45,263,000. This basis difference resulted primarily from $107,882,000 of non-cash impairment charges recognized in 2008, partially offset by purchase accounting for our acquisition of an additional 8,000,000 common shares of Lexington in October 2008, of which the majority relates to our estimate of the fair values of Lexington’s real estate (land and buildings) as compared to the carrying amounts in Lexington’s consolidated financial statements.  We are amortizing the basis difference related to the buildings into earnings as additional depreciation expense over their estimated useful lives.  This amortization is not material to our share of equity in Lexington’s net income or loss.  The basis difference related to the land will be recognized upon disposition of our investment.

LNR Property LLC (“LNR”)

As of June 30, 2012, we own a 26.2% equity interest in LNR.  We account for our investment in LNR under the equity method and record our 26.2% share of LNR’s net income or loss on a one-quarter lag basis because we file our consolidated financial statements on Form 10-K and 10-Q prior to receiving LNR’s consolidated financial statements.

LNR consolidates certain Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (“CMBS”) and Collateralized Debt Obligation (“CDO”) trusts for which it is the primary beneficiary.  The assets of these trusts (primarily commercial mortgage loans), which aggregate approximately $85 billion as of March 31, 2012, are the sole source of repayment of the related liabilities, which are non-recourse to LNR and its equity holders, including us.  Changes in the fair value of these assets each period are offset by changes in the fair value of the related liabilities through LNR’s consolidated income statement.  As of June 30, 2012, the carrying amount of our investment in LNR does not materially differ from our share of LNR’s equity.

11.    Debt - continued

Notes to preceding tabular information (amounts in thousands):

(1)

Represents the extended maturity for certain loans in which we have the unilateral right, ability and intent to extend.

(2)

On January 9, 2012, we completed a $300,000 refinancing of this property. The five-year fixed rate loan bears interest at 3.75% and amortizes based on a 30-year schedule beginning in the third year. The proceeds of the new loan and $132,000 of existing cash were used to repay the existing loan and closing costs.

(3)

In the first quarter of 2012, we notified the lender that due to scheduled lease expirations resulting primarily from the effects of the Base Realignment and Closure statute, the Skyline properties had a 26% vacancy rate, which is expected to increase and, accordingly, cash flows are expected to decrease. As a result, our subsidiary that owns these properties does not have and is not expected to have for some time sufficient funds to pay all of its current obligations, including interest payments to the lender. Based on the projected vacancy and the significant amount of capital required to re-tenant these properties, at our request, the mortgage loan was transferred to the special servicer. In the second quarter of 2012, we entered into a forbearance agreement with the special servicer to apply cash flows of the property, before interest on the loan, towards the repayment of $4,000 of tenant improvements and leasing commissions we recently funded in connection with a new lease at these properties. The forbearance agreement provides that until the earlier of (i) the full repayment to us of that capital or (ii) December 1, 2012, any interest shortfall will be deferred and not give rise to a loan default. The deferred interest will be added to the principal balance of the loan and, as of June 30, 2012, amounted to $6,598. We continue to negotiate with the special servicer to restructure the terms of the loan.

(4)

On July 11, 2012, upon maturity, we repaid this loan.

(5)

On March 5, 2012, we completed a $325,000 refinancing of this property. The three-year loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% and has two one-year extension options. We retained net proceeds of approximately $87,000, after repaying the existing loan and closing costs.

(6)

LIBOR floor of 2.00%.

(7)

Interest at the Freddie Mac Reference Note Rate plus 1.53%.

(8)

LIBOR floor of 0.50%.

(9)

LIBOR floor of 1.00%.

(10)

May be redeemed at our option in whole or in part beginning on October 1, 2014, at a price equal to the principal amount plus accrued interest.

(11)

In April 2012, we redeemed all of the outstanding exchangeable and convertible senior debentures at par, for an aggregate of $510,215 in cash.

Redeemable noncontrolling interests exclude our Series G-1 through G-4 convertible preferred units and Series D-13 cumulative redeemable preferred units, as they are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities and Equity , because of their possible settlement by issuing a variable number of Vornado common shares.  Accordingly, the fair value of these units is included as a component of “other liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheets and aggregated $55,097,000 and $54,865,000 as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

On July 19, 2012, we redeemed all of the outstanding 7.0% Series D-10 and 6.75% Series D-14 cumulative redeemable preferred units with an aggregate face amount of $180,000,000 for $168,300,000 in cash, plus accrued and unpaid distributions through the date of redemption.

13.    Shareholders’ Equity

On July 11, 2012, we sold 12,000,000 5.70% Series K Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares at a price of $25.00 per share in an underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement.  We retained aggregate net proceeds of $291,923,000, after underwriters’ discounts and issuance costs.  Dividends on the Series K Preferred Shares are cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears.  The Series K Preferred Shares are not convertible into, or exchangeable for, any of our properties or securities.  On or after five years from the date of issuance (or sooner under limited circumstances), we may redeem the Series K Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends through the date of redemption.  The Series K Preferred Shares have no maturity date and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless redeemed by us.

On July 17, 2012, we issued a notice of redemption to the holders of our 7.0% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares.  The preferred shares will be redeemed at par on August 16, 2012, for an aggregate of $75,000,000 in cash, plus accrued and unpaid dividends through the date of redemption.

14.  Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value.  The objective of fair value is to determine the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (the exit price). ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 – observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 – unobservable inputs that are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as consider counterparty credit risk in our assessment of fair value.  Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret Level 2 and 3 inputs in determining the fair value of our financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.  Accordingly, our fair value estimates, which are made at the end of each reporting period, may be different than the amounts that may ultimately be realized upon sale or disposition of these assets.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

Financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in our consolidated financial statements consist of (i) marketable securities, (ii) Real Estate Fund investments, (iii) the assets in our deferred compensation plan (for which there is a corresponding liability on our consolidated balance sheet), (iv) derivative positions in marketable equity securities, (v) interest rate swaps and (vi) mandatorily redeemable instruments (Series G-1 through G-4 convertible preferred units and Series D-13 cumulative redeemable preferred units).  The tables below aggregate the fair values of these financial assets and liabilities by their levels in the fair value hierarchy at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Real Estate Fund Investments

At June 30, 2012, our Real Estate Fund had seven investments with an aggregate fair value of approximately $460,496,000, or $40,260,000 in excess of cost.  These investments are classified as Level 3.  We use a discounted cash flow valuation technique to estimate the fair value of each of these investments, which is updated quarterly by personnel responsible for the management of each investment and reviewed by senior management at each reporting period.  The discounted cash flow valuation technique requires us to estimate cash flows for each investment over the anticipated holding period, which currently ranges from 2.1 to 6.6 years.  Cash flows are derived from property rental revenue (base rents plus reimbursements) less operating expenses, real estate taxes and capital and other costs, plus projected sales proceeds in the year of exit.  Property rental revenue is based on leases currently in place and our estimates for future leasing activity, which are based on current market rents for similar space plus a projected growth factor.  Similarly, estimated operating expenses and real estate taxes are based on amounts incurred in the current period plus a projected growth factor for future periods.  Anticipated sales proceeds at the end of an investment’s expected holding period are determined based on the net cash flow of the investment in the year of exit, divided by a terminal capitalization rate, less estimated selling costs.

The fair value of each property is calculated by discounting the future cash flows (including the projected sales proceeds), using an appropriate discount rate and then reduced by the property’s outstanding debt, if any, to determine the fair value of the equity in each investment. Significant unobservable quantitative inputs used in determining the fair value of each investment include capitalization rates and discount rates.  These rates are based on the location, type and nature of each property, and current and anticipated market conditions, which are derived from original underwriting assumptions, industry publications and from the experience of our Acquisitions and Capital Markets departments.  Significant unobservable quantitative inputs in the table below were utilized in determining the fair value of these Fund investments at June 30, 2012.

Discount rates

12.5% to 23.3%

14.6 %

Terminal capitalization rates

6.1 %

The above inputs are subject to change based on changes in economic and market conditions and/or changes in use or timing of exit.  Changes in discount rates and terminal capitalization rates result in increases or decreases in the fair values of these investments.  The discount rates encompass, among other things, uncertainties in the valuation models with respect to terminal capitalization rates and the amount and timing of cash flows.  Therefore, a change in the fair value of these investments resulting from a change in the terminal capitalization rate, may be partially offset by a change in the discount rate.  It is not possible for us to predict the effect of future economic or market conditions on our estimated fair values.  The table below summarizes the changes in the fair value of Fund investments that are classified as Level 3, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

Deferred Compensation Plan Assets

Deferred compensation plan assets that are classified as Level 3 consist of investments in limited partnerships and investment funds, which are managed by third parties.  We receive quarterly financial reports from a third-party administrator, which are compiled from the quarterly reports provided to them from each limited partnership and investment fund.  The quarterly reports provide net asset values on a fair value basis which are audited by independent public accounting firms on an annual basis.  The third-party administrator does not adjust these values in determining our share of the net assets and we do not adjust these values when reported in our consolidated financial statements.

Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value

Financial assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value in our consolidated financial statements include mezzanine loans receivable and our secured and unsecured debt.  Estimates of the fair values of these instruments are determined by the standard practice of modeling the contractual cash flows required under the instrument and discounting them back to their present value at the appropriate current risk adjusted interest rate, which is provided by a third-party specialist.  For floating rate debt, we use forward rates derived from observable market yield curves to project the expected cash flows we would be required to make under the instrument.  The fair value of our mezzanine loans receivable is classified as Level 3 and the fair value of our secured and unsecured debt is classified as Level 2.  The table below summarizes the carrying amounts and fair values of these financial instruments as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

15.    Incentive Compensation

Our Omnibus Share Plan (the “Plan”) provides for grants of incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted Operating Partnership units and out-performance plan rewards to certain of our employees and officers.  We account for all stock-based compensation in accordance ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation .

On March 30, 2012, our Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) approved the 2012 formulaic annual incentive program for our senior executive management team.  Under the program, our senior executive management team, including our Chairman and our President and Chief Executive Officer, will have the ability to earn annual incentive payments (cash or equity) if and only if we achieve comparable funds from operations (“Comparable FFO”) of at least 80% or more of the prior year Comparable FFO.  Moreover, even if we achieve the stipulated Comparable FFO performance requirement, the Committee retains the right, consistent with best practices, to elect to make no payments under the program.  Comparable FFO excludes the impact of certain non-recurring items such as income or loss from discontinued operations, the sale or mark-to-market of marketable securities or derivatives and early extinguishment of debt, restructuring costs and non-cash impairment losses, among others, and thus the Committee believes provides a better metric than total FFO for assessing management’s performance for the year.  Aggregate incentive awards earned under the program are subject to a cap of 1.25% of Comparable FFO for the year, with individual award allocations determined by the Committee based on an assessment of individual and overall performance.

On March 30, 2012, the Committee also approved the 2012 Out-Performance Plan, a multi-year, performance-based equity compensation plan (the “2012 OPP”).  The aggregate notional amount of the 2012 OPP is $40,000,000.  Under the 2012 OPP, participants, including our Chairman and our President and Chief Executive Officer, have the opportunity to earn compensation payable in the form of equity awards if and only if we outperform a predetermined total shareholder return (“TSR”) and/or outperform the market with respect to a relative TSR in any year during a three-year performance period.   Specifically, awards under our 2012 OPP may be earned if we (i) achieve a TSR above that of the SNL US REIT Index (the “Index”) over a one-year, two-year or three-year performance period (the “Relative Component”), and/or (ii) achieve a TSR level greater than 7% per annum, or 21% over the three-year performance period (the “Absolute Component”).  To the extent awards would be earned under the Absolute Component of the 2012 OPP but we underperform the Index, such awards would be reduced (and potentially fully negated) based on the degree to which we underperform the Index.  In certain circumstances, in the event we outperform the Index but awards would not otherwise be earned under the Absolute Component, awards may still be earned under the Relative Component.  To the extent awards would otherwise be earned under the Relative Component but we fail to achieve at least a 6% per annum absolute TSR level, such awards would be reduced based on our absolute TSR performance, with no awards being earned in the event our TSR during the applicable measurement period is 0% or negative, irrespective of the degree to which we may outperform the Index.  If the designated performance objectives are achieved, OPP Units are also subject to time-based vesting requirements. Dividends on awards issued accrue during the performance period and are paid to participants if and only if awards are ultimately earned based on the achievement of the designated performance objectives.  Awards earned under the 2012 OPP vest 33% in year three, 33% in year four and 34% in year five.  The fair value of the 2012 OPP on the date of grant, as adjusted for estimated forfeitures, was $12,250,000, and is being amortized into expense over a five-year period from the date of grant, using a graded vesting attribution model.

Stock-based compensation expense consists of stock option awards, restricted stock awards, Operating Partnership unit awards and out-performance plan awards.  Stock-based compensation expense was $8,438,000 and $6,919,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $15,047,000 and $14,065,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

19.    Commitments and Contingencies

Insurance

We maintain general liability insurance with limits of $300,000,000 per occurrence and all risk property and rental value insurance with limits of $2.0 billion per occurrence, including coverage for terrorist acts, with sub-limits for certain perils such as floods.  Our California properties have earthquake insurance with coverage of $180,000,000 per occurrence, subject to a deductible in the amount of 5% of the value of the affected property, up to a $180,000,000 annual aggregate.

Penn Plaza Insurance Company, LLC (“PPIC”), our wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, acts as a re-insurer with respect to a portion of all risk property and rental value insurance and a portion of our earthquake insurance coverage, and as a direct insurer for coverage for acts of terrorism, including nuclear, biological, chemical and radiological (“NBCR”) acts, as defined by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act.  Coverage for acts of terrorism (excluding NBCR acts) is fully reinsured by third party insurance companies and the Federal government with no exposure to PPIC.  Coverage for NBCR losses is up to $2.0 billion per occurrence, for which PPIC is responsible for a deductible of $3,200,000 and 15% of the balance of a covered loss and the Federal government is responsible for the remaining 85% of a covered loss.  We are ultimately responsible for any loss borne by PPIC.

We continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism.  However, we cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in future policy years.

Our debt instruments, consisting of mortgage loans secured by our properties which are non-recourse to us, senior unsecured notes and revolving credit agreements contain customary covenants requiring us to maintain insurance. Although we believe that we have adequate insurance coverage for purposes of these agreements, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. Further, if lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain it could adversely affect our ability to finance our properties and expand our portfolio.

Other Commitments and Contingencies

Our mortgage loans are non-recourse to us.  However, in certain cases we have provided guarantees or master leased tenant space.  These guarantees and master leases terminate either upon the satisfaction of specified circumstances or repayment of the underlying loans.  As of June 30, 2012, the aggregate dollar amount of these guarantees and master leases is approximately $266,074,000.

At June 30, 2012, $22,195,000 of letters of credit were outstanding under one of our revolving credit facilities.  Our credit facilities contain financial covenants that require us to maintain minimum interest coverage and maximum debt to market capitalization ratios, and provide for higher interest rates in the event of a decline in our ratings below Baa3/BBB. Our credit facilities also contain customary conditions precedent to borrowing, including representations and warranties, and also contain customary events of default that could give rise to accelerated repayment, including such items as failure to pay interest or principal.

Each of our properties has been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment at various times. The environmental assessments did not reveal any material environmental contamination. However, there can be no assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites, or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant costs to us.

Two of our wholly owned subsidiaries that are contracted to develop and operate the Cleveland Medical Mart and Convention Center, in Cleveland, Ohio, are required to fund $11,500,000, primarily for tenant improvements, and they are responsible for operating expenses and are entitled to the net operating income, if any, upon the completion of development and the commencement of operations.

As of June 30, 2012, we expect to fund additional capital to certain of our partially owned entities aggregating approximately $259,607,000.

Litigation

We are from time to time involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such matters, including the matter referred to below, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In 2003, Stop & Shop filed an action against us in the New York Supreme Court, claiming that we had no right to reallocate and therefore continue to collect $5,000,000 of annual rent from Stop & Shop pursuant to a Master Agreement and Guaranty, because of the expiration of the leases to which the annual rent was previously allocated. Stop & Shop asserted that an order of the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, as modified on appeal by the District Court, froze our right to reallocate and effectively terminated our right to collect the annual rent from Stop & Shop.  We asserted a counterclaim seeking a judgment for all the unpaid annual rent accruing through the date of the judgment and a declaration that Stop & Shop will continue to be liable for the annual rent as long as any of the leases subject to the Master Agreement and Guaranty remain in effect.   After summary judgment motions by both sides were denied, the parties conducted discovery.  A trial was held in November 2010.  On November 7, 2011, the Court determined that we have a continuing right to allocate the annual rent to unexpired leases covered by the Master Agreement and Guaranty, and directed entry of a judgment in our favor ordering Stop & Shop to pay us the unpaid annual rent accrued through February 28, 2011 in the amount of $37,422,000, a portion of the annual rent due from March 1, 2011 through the date of judgment, interest, and attorneys’ fees.  On December 16, 2011, a money judgment based on the Court’s decision was entered in our favor in the amount of $56,597,000 (including interest and costs).  The amount for attorneys’ fees is being addressed in a proceeding before a special referee.  Stop & Shop has appealed the Court’s decision and the judgment, and has posted a bond to secure payment of the judgment.  On January 12, 2012, we commenced a new action against Stop & Shop seeking recovery of $2,500,000 of annual rent not included in the money judgment, plus additional annual rent as it accrues.  A motion by Stop & Shop to dismiss the new action was denied on July 19, 2012.

As of June 30, 2012, we have a $44,900,000 receivable from Stop & Shop, excluding amounts due to us for interest and costs resulting from the Court’s judgment.  As a result of Stop & Shop appealing the Court’s decision, we believe, after consultation with counsel, that the maximum reasonably possible loss is up to the total amount of the receivable of $44,900,000.

20.    Related Party Transactions

On March 8, 2012, Steven Roth, the Chairman of our Board of Trustees, repaid his $13,122,500 outstanding loan from the Company.

21.    Segment Information

Effective January 1, 2012, as a result of certain organizational and operational changes, we redefined the New York business segment to encompass all of our Manhattan assets by including the 1.0 million square feet in 21 freestanding Manhattan street retail assets (formerly in our Retail segment), and the Hotel Pennsylvania and our interest in Alexander’s, Inc. (formerly in our Other segment).  Accordingly, we have reclassified the prior period segment financial results to conform to the current year presentation.  See note (3) on page 36 for the elements of the New York segment’s EBITDA.  Below is a summary of net income and a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA (1) by segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

(UNAUDITED)

21. Segment Information - continued

Notes to preceding tabular information:

(1)

EBITDA represents "Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization." We consider EBITDA a supplemental measure for making decisions and assessing the unlevered performance of our segments as it relates to the total return on assets as opposed to the levered return on equity. As properties are bought and sold based on a multiple of EBITDA, we utilize this measure to make investment decisions as well as to compare the performance of our assets to that of our peers. EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

(2)

Interest and debt expense, depreciation and amortization and income tax (benefit) expense in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA includes our share of these items from partially owned entities.

Vornado Realty Trust

New York, New York

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Vornado Realty Trust (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.  These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Vornado Realty Trust as of December 31, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 27, 2012, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements and included an explanatory paragraph relating to the change in method of presenting comprehensive income due to the adoption of FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income .  In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report constitute forward‑looking statements as such term is defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. They represent our intentions, plans, expectations and beliefs and are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Our future results, financial condition and business may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “would,” “may” or other similar expressions in this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q.  Many of the factors that will determine the outcome of these and our other forward-looking statements are beyond our ability to control or predict. For further discussion of factors that could materially affect the outcome of our forward-looking statements, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.  For these statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or the date of any document incorporated by reference. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations includes a discussion of our consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Overview

Business Objective and Operating Strategy

Our business objective is to maximize shareholder value, which we measure by the total return provided to our shareholders. Below is a table comparing our performance to the Morgan Stanley REIT Index (“RMS”) and the SNL REIT Index (“SNL”) for the following periods ended June 30, 2012.

(1) Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance.

We intend to achieve our business objective by continuing to pursue our investment philosophy and executing our operating strategies through:

· Maintaining a superior team of operating and investment professionals and an entrepreneurial spirit;

· Investing in properties in select markets, such as New York City and Washington, DC, where we believe there is a high likelihood of capital appreciation;

· Acquiring quality properties at a discount to replacement cost and where there is a significant potential for higher rents;

· Investing in retail properties in select under-stored locations such as the New York City metropolitan area;

· Developing and redeveloping existing properties to increase returns and maximize value; and

· Investing in operating companies that have a significant real estate component.

We expect to finance our growth, acquisitions and investments using internally generated funds, proceeds from asset sales and by accessing the public and private capital markets.  We may also offer Vornado common or preferred shares or Operating Partnership units in exchange for property and may repurchase or otherwise reacquire these securities in the future.

We compete with a large number of real estate property owners and developers, some of which may be willing to accept lower returns on their investments. Principal factors of competition are rents charged, attractiveness of location, the quality of the property and the breadth and the quality of services provided. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends of the national, regional and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants and customers, availability and cost of capital, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations, legislation and population trends.  See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for additional information regarding these factors.

2012 Acquisitions

On July 5, 2012, we entered into an agreement to acquire a retail condominium located at 666 Fifth Avenue at 53rd Street for $707,000,000. The property has 126 feet of frontage on Fifth Avenue and contains 114,000 square feet, 39,000 square feet in fee and 75,000 square feet by long-term lease from the 666 Fifth Avenue office condominium, which is 49.5% owned by Vornado. T he acquisition will be funded by property level debt and proceeds from asset sales, and is expected to close in the fourth quarter, subject to customary closing conditions.

On July 30, 2012, we entered into a lease with Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (NYSE:HST), under which we will redevelop the retail and signage components of the Marriott Marquis Times Square Hotel.  The lease contains options based on cash flow which, if exercised, would lead to our ownership.  The Marriott Marquis with over 1,900 rooms is one of the largest hotels in Manhattan.  It is located in the heart of the bow-tie of Times Square and spans the entire block front from 45th Street to 46th Street on Broadway.  The Marriott Marquis is directly across from our 1540 Broadway iconic retail property leased to Forever 21 and Disney flagship stores.  We plan to spend as much as $140 million to redevelop and substantially expand the existing retail space, including converting the below grade parking garage into retail, and creating six-story, 300 feet wide block front dynamic LED signs.

On April 26, 2012, our 25% owned Real Estate Fund acquired 520 Broadway, a 112,000 square foot office building in Santa Monica, California for $59,650,000 and subsequently placed a $30,000,000 mortgage loan on the property.  The three-year loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% and has two one-year extension options.

On June 28, 2012, our 25% owned Real Estate Fund made an investment in an unconsolidated subsidiary that, on July 2, 2012, acquired 1100 Lincoln Road, a 167,000 square foot retail property, the western anchor of the Lincoln Road Shopping District in Miami Beach, Florida, for $132,000,000.  The purchase price consisted of $66,000,000 in cash and a $66,000,000 mortgage loan.  The three-year loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.75% and has two one-year extension options.

2012 Dispositions

We sold or have entered into agreements to sell (i) five Mart properties, (ii) one Washington, DC property, and (iii) 11 Retail properties, for an aggregate of $792,000,000.  Below are the details of these transactions.

Merchandise Mart Properties

On January 6, 2012, we completed the sale of 350 West Mart Center, a 1.2 million square foot office building in Chicago, Illinois, for $228,000,000 in cash, which resulted in a net gain of $54,911,000.

On June 22, 2012, we completed the sale of L.A. Mart, a 784,000 square foot showroom building in Los Angeles, California, for $53,000,000, of which $18,000,000 was cash and $35,000,000 was nine-month seller financing at 6.0%.

On July 5, 2012, we entered into agreements to sell the Washington Design Center, the Boston Design Center and the Canadian Trade Shows, for an aggregate of $175,000,000 in cash, which will result in a net gain aggregating approximately $24,500,000, including non-comparable FFO of $19,200,000 from the sale of the Canadian Trade Shows.  The sales of the Canadian Trade Shows and the Washington Design Center were completed in July 2012 and the sale of the Boston Design Center is expected to be completed in the third quarter, subject to customary closing conditions.

Washington, DC Property

On July 26, 2012, we completed the sale of 409 Third Street S.W., a 409,000 square foot office building in Washington, DC, for $200,000,000 in cash, which resulted in a net gain of approximately $124,700,000, that will be recognized in the third quarter.  This building is contiguous to the Washington Design Center and was sold to the same purchaser.

Retail Properties

We sold 11 retail properties in separate transactions, for an aggregate of $136,000,000 in cash, which resulted in a net gain aggregating $17,802,000.

We have engaged the services of a real estate broker to sell the 1.8 million square foot Green Acres Mall, located in Valley Stream, New York.  In addition, Alexander’s, our 32.4% owned affiliate, has engaged the services of the same broker to sell its 1.2 million square foot Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center, located in Brooklyn, New York.  There can be no assurance that these efforts will result in the sales of these properties.

2012 Financing Activities

Secured Debt

On January 9, 2012, we completed a $300,000,000 refinancing of 350 Park Avenue, a 559,000 square foot Manhattan office building. The five-year fixed rate loan bears interest at 3.75% and amortizes based on a 30-year schedule beginning in the third year. The proceeds of the new loan and $132,000,000 of existing cash were used to repay the existing loan and closing costs.

On March 5, 2012, we completed a $325,000,000 refinancing of 100 West 33 rd Street, a 1.1 million square foot property located on the entire Sixth Avenue block front between 32 nd and 33 rd Streets in Manhattan.  The building contains the 257,000 square foot Manhattan Mall and 848,000 square feet of office space.  The three-year loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% (2.74% at June 30, 2012) and has two one-year extension options.  We retained net proceeds of approximately $87,000,000, after repaying the existing loan and closing costs.

Senior Unsecured Debt

In April 2012, we redeemed all of the outstanding exchangeable and convertible senior debentures at par, for an aggregate of $510,215,000 in cash.

Preferred Equity

On July 11, 2012, we sold 12,000,000 5.70% Series K Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares at a price of $25.00 per share in an underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement.  We retained aggregate net proceeds of $291,923,000, after underwriters’ discounts and issuance costs.  Dividends on the Series K Preferred Shares are cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears.  The Series K Preferred Shares are not convertible into, or exchangeable for, any of our properties or securities.  On or after five years from the date of issuance (or sooner under limited circumstances), we may redeem the Series K Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends through the date of redemption.  The Series K Preferred Shares have no maturity date and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless redeemed by us.

On July 17, 2012, we issued a notice of redemption to the holders of our 7.0% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares.  The preferred shares will be redeemed at par on August 16, 2012, for an aggregate of $75,000,000 in cash, plus accrued and unpaid dividends through the date of redemption.

Recently Issued Accounting Literature

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Update No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS (“ASU No. 2011-04”).  ASU No. 2011-04 provides a uniform framework for fair value measurements and related disclosures between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and requires additional disclosures, including: (i) quantitative information about unobservable inputs used, a description of the valuation processes used, and a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements to changes in the unobservable inputs, for Level 3 fair value measurements; (ii) fair value of financial instruments not measured at fair value but for which disclosure of fair value is required, based on their levels in the fair value hierarchy; and (iii) transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.  The adoption of this update on January 1, 2012 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, but resulted in additional fair value measurement disclosures.

Critical Accounting Policies

A summary of our critical accounting policies is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition. There have been no significant changes to our policies during 2012.

Overview - continued

Washington, DC Properties Segment

In our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, as a result of the BRAC statute, we estimated that occupancy will decrease from 90% at year end, to between 82% to 84% in 2012 and that 2012 EBITDA from continuing operations will be lower than 2011 by approximately $55,000,000 to $65,000,000 based on 2,902,000 square feet expiring in 2012, partially offset by leasing over 1,000,000 square feet.

At June 30, 2012, occupancy is at 85.9% and EBITDA from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 is lower by approximately $14,500,000 and $22,100,000, respectively, than it was for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.  Based on leasing activity as of June 30, 2012, we currently estimate that 2012 EBITDA from continuing operations will be lower than 2011 by approximately $50,000,000 to $60,000,000.

Of the 2,395,000 square feet subject to BRAC, 348,000 square feet has been taken out of service for redevelopment and 470,000 square feet has been leased or is pending.  The table below summarizes the status of the BRAC space as of June 30, 2012.

In the first quarter of 2012, we notified the lender that due to scheduled lease expirations resulting primarily from the effects of the BRAC statute, the Skyline properties had a 26% vacancy rate, which is expected to increase and, accordingly, cash flows are expected to decrease.  As a result, our subsidiary that owns these properties does not have and is not expected to have for some time sufficient funds to pay all of its current obligations, including interest payments to the lender.  Based on the projected vacancy and the significant amount of capital required to re-tenant these properties, at our request, the mortgage loan was transferred to the special servicer.  In the second quarter of 2012, we entered into a forbearance agreement with the special servicer to apply cash flows of the property, before interest on the loan, towards the repayment of $4,000,000 of tenant improvements and leasing commissions we recently funded in connection with a new lease at these properties.  The forbearance agreement provides that until the earlier of (i) the full repayment to us of that capital or (ii) December 1, 2012, any interest shortfall will be deferred and not give rise to a loan default. The deferred interest will be added to the principal balance of the loan and, as of June 30, 2012, amounted to $6,598,000.  We continue to negotiate with the special servicer to restructure the terms of the loan.

Net Income and EBITDA by Segment for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

Effective January 1, 2012, as a result of certain organizational and operational changes, we redefined the New York business segment to encompass all of our Manhattan assets by including the 1.0 million square feet in 21 freestanding Manhattan street retail assets (formerly in our Retail segment), and the Hotel Pennsylvania and our interest in Alexander’s, Inc. (formerly in our Other segment).  Accordingly, we have reclassified the prior period segment financial results to conform to the current year presentation.  See note (3) on page 52 for the elements of the New York segment’s EBITDA.

Below is a summary of net income and a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA (1) by segment for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

Net Income and EBITDA by Segment for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 - continued

Notes to preceding tabular information:

(1)

EBITDA represents "Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization." We consider EBITDA a supplemental measure for making decisions and assessing the unlevered performance of our segments as it relates to the total return on assets as opposed to the levered return on equity. As properties are bought and sold based on a multiple of EBITDA, we utilize this measure to make investment decisions as well as to compare the performance of our assets to that of our peers. EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

(2)

Interest and debt expense, depreciation and amortization and income tax (benefit) expense in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA includes our share of these items from partially owned entities.

Interest and Other Investment (Loss) Income, net

Interest and other investment (loss) income, net (comprised of the mark-to-market of derivative positions in marketable equity securities, interest income on mezzanine loans receivable, other interest income and dividend income) was a loss of $49,172,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to income of $7,998,000 in the prior year’s quarter, a decrease of $57,170,000. This decrease resulted from:

Net Gain on Disposition of Wholly Owned and Partially Owned Assets

Net gain on disposition of wholly owned and partially owned assets was $4,856,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2012 and resulted primarily from the sale of marketable securities and residential condominiums.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $7,479,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $5,641,000 in the prior year’s quarter, an increase of $1,838,000.  This increase resulted primarily from higher taxable income of our taxable REIT subsidiaries.

Income from Discontinued Operations

On June 22, 2012, we completed the sale of L.A. Mart, a 784,000 square foot showroom building in Los Angeles, California for $53,000,000, of which $18,000,000 was cash and $35,000,000 was nine-month seller financing at 6.0%.

In the second quarter of 2012, we sold four retail properties in separate transactions, for an aggregate of $43,500,000 in cash, which resulted in a net gain aggregating $16,896,000.

We have reclassified the revenues and expenses of the properties that were sold and that are currently held for sale to “income from discontinued operations” and the related assets and liabilities to “assets related to discontinued operations” and “liabilities related to discontinued operations” for all the periods presented in the accompanying financial statements. The table below sets forth the combined results of assets related to discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries was $14,721,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $13,657,000 in the prior year’s quarter, an increase of $1,064,000 .  This increase resulted primarily from higher income at 1290 Avenue of the Americas and 555 California Street.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests in the Operating Partnership, including Unit Distributions

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership, including unit distributions for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 is primarily comprised of allocations of income to redeemable noncontrolling interests of $1,337,000 and $6,283,000, respectively, and preferred unit distributions of the Operating Partnership of $3,873,000 and $4,448,000, respectively.  The decrease of $4,946,000 in allocations of income to redeemable noncontrolling interests resulted primarily from lower net income subject to allocation to unitholders.

Preferred Share Dividends

Preferred share dividends were $17,787,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $16,668,000 in the prior year’s quarter, an increase of $1,119,000.  This increase resulted from the issuance of Series J preferred shares during 2011.

Same Store EBITDA

Same store EBITDA represents EBITDA from property level operations which are owned by us in both the current and prior year reporting periods.  Same store EBITDA excludes segment-level overhead expenses, which are expenses that we do not consider to be property-level expenses, as well as other non-operating items.  We present same store EBITDA on both a GAAP basis and a cash basis, which excludes income from the straight-lining of rents, amortization of below-market leases, net of above-market leases and other non-cash adjustments. We present these non-GAAP measures to (i) facilitate meaningful comparisons of the operational performance of our properties and segments, (ii) make decisions on whether to buy, sell or refinance properties, and (iii) compare the performance of our properties and segments to those of our peers.  Same store EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

Below are the same store EBITDA results on a GAAP and cash basis for each of our segments for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Net Income and EBITDA by Segment for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

Effective January 1, 2012, as a result of certain organizational and operational changes, we redefined the New York business segment to encompass all of our Manhattan assets by including the 1.0 million square feet in 21 freestanding Manhattan street retail assets (formerly in our Retail segment), and the Hotel Pennsylvania and our interest in Alexander’s, Inc. (formerly in our Other segment).  Accordingly, we have reclassified the prior period segment financial results to conform to the current year presentation.  See note (3) on page 62 for the elements of the New York segment’s EBITDA.

Below is a summary of net income and a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA (1) by segment for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

Net Income and EBITDA by Segment for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 - continued

Notes to preceding tabular information:

(1)

EBITDA represents "Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization." We consider EBITDA a supplemental measure for making decisions and assessing the unlevered performance of our segments as it relates to the total return on assets as opposed to the levered return on equity. As properties are bought and sold based on a multiple of EBITDA, we utilize this measure to make investment decisions as well as to compare the performance of our assets to that of our peers. EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

(2)

Interest and debt expense, depreciation and amortization and income tax (benefit) expense in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA includes our share of these items from partially owned entities.

Net gain on disposition of wholly owned and partially owned assets was $4,856,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $6,677,000, in the prior year’s six months and resulted primarily from the sale of marketable securities and residential condominiums.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $14,304,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $11,589,000 in the prior year’s six months, an increase of $2,715,000.  This increase resulted primarily from higher taxable income of our taxable REIT subsidiaries.

Income from Discontinued Operations

On January 6, 2012, we completed the sale of 350 West Mart Center, a 1.2 million square foot office building in Chicago, Illinois, for $228,000,000 in cash, which resulted in a net gain of $54,911,000.

On June 22, 2012, we completed the sale of L.A. Mart, a 784,000 square foot showroom building in Los Angeles, California for $53,000,000, of which $18,000,000 was cash and $35,000,000 was nine-month seller financing at 6.0%.

In addition, during 2012, we sold 11 retail properties in separate transactions, for an aggregate of $136,000,000 in cash, which resulted in a net gain aggregating $17,802,000.

We have reclassified the revenues and expenses of the properties that were sold and that are currently being held for sale to “income from discontinued operations” and the related assets and liabilities to “assets related to discontinued operations” and “liabilities related to discontinued operations” for all the periods presented in the accompanying financial statements.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Subsidiaries

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries was $24,318,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $15,007,000 in the prior year’s six months, an increase of $9,311,000.  This increase resulted primarily from an $8,211,000 increase in income allocated to the noncontrolling interests of our Real Estate Fund.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests in the Operating Partnership, including Unit Distributions

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership, including unit distributions for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 is primarily comprised of allocations of income to redeemable noncontrolling interests of $16,608,000 and $33,588,000, respectively, and preferred unit distributions of the Operating Partnership of $7,747,000 and $8,951,000, respectively.  The decrease of $16,980,000 in allocations of income to redeemable noncontrolling interests resulted primarily from lower net income subject to allocation to unitholders.

Preferred Share Dividends

Preferred share dividends were $35,574,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $30,116,000 in the prior year’s six months, an increase of $5,458,000.  This increase resulted from the issuance of Series J preferred shares in 2011.

Same Store EBITDA

Same store EBITDA represents EBITDA from property level operations which are owned by us in both the current and prior year reporting periods.  Same store EBITDA excludes segment-level overhead expenses, which are expenses that we do not consider to be property-level expenses, as well as other non-operating items.  We present same store EBITDA on both a GAAP basis and a cash basis, which excludes income from the straight-lining of rents, amortization of below-market leases, net of above-market leases and other non-cash adjustments. We present these non-GAAP measures to (i) facilitate meaningful comparisons of the operational performance of our properties and segments, (ii) make decisions on whether to buy, sell or refinance properties, and (iii) compare the performance of our properties and segments to those of our peers.  Same store EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

Below are the same store EBITDA results on a GAAP and cash basis for each of our segments for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Related Party Transactions

On March 8, 2012, Steven Roth, the Chairman of our Board of Trustees, repaid his $13,122,500 outstanding loan from the Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Property rental income is our primary source of cash flow and is dependent upon the occupancy and rental rates of our properties.   Our cash requirements include property operating expenses, capital improvements, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, dividends to shareholders, distributions to unitholders of the Operating Partnership, as well as acquisition and development costs.  Other sources of liquidity to fund cash requirements include proceeds from debt financings, including mortgage loans, senior unsecured borrowings, and our revolving credit facilities; proceeds from the issuance of common and preferred equity; and asset sales.

We anticipate that cash flow from continuing operations over the next twelve months will be adequate to fund our business operations, cash distributions to unitholders of the Operating Partnership, cash dividends to shareholders, debt amortization and recurring capital expenditures.  Capital requirements for development expenditures and acquisitions (excluding Fund acquisitions) may require funding from borrowings and/or equity offerings.  Our Real Estate Fund has aggregate unfunded equity commitments of $330,753,000 for acquisitions, including $82,688,250 from us.

We may from time to time purchase or retire outstanding debt securities or redeem our equity securities.  Such purchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements and other factors.  The amounts involved in connection with these transactions could be material to our consolidated financial statements.

See “Overview” on page 43 for significant transactions that have occurred subsequent to quarter end that may have an impact on our liquidity and capital resources.

Cash Flows for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

Insurance

We maintain general liability insurance with limits of $300,000,000 per occurrence and all risk property and rental value insurance with limits of $2.0 billion per occurrence, including coverage for terrorist acts, with sub-limits for certain perils such as floods.  Our California properties have earthquake insurance with coverage of $180,000,000 per occurrence, subject to a deductible in the amount of 5% of the value of the affected property, up to a $180,000,000 annual aggregate.

Penn Plaza Insurance Company, LLC (“PPIC”), our wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, acts as a re-insurer with respect to a portion of all risk property and rental value insurance and a portion of our earthquake insurance coverage, and as a direct insurer for coverage for acts of terrorism, including nuclear, biological, chemical and radiological (“NBCR”) acts, as defined by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act. Coverage for acts of terrorism (excluding NBCR acts) is fully reinsured by third party insurance companies and the Federal government with no exposure to PPIC.  Coverage for NBCR losses is up to $2.0 billion per occurrence, for which PPIC is responsible for a deductible of $3,200,000 and 15% of the balance of a covered loss and the Federal government is responsible for the remaining 85% of a covered loss.  We are ultimately responsible for any loss borne by PPIC.

We continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism.  However, we cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in future policy years.

Our debt instruments, consisting of mortgage loans secured by our properties which are non-recourse to us, senior unsecured notes and revolving credit agreements contain customary covenants requiring us to maintain insurance. Although we believe that we have adequate insurance coverage for purposes of these agreements, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. Further, if lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain it could adversely affect our ability to finance our properties and expand our portfolio.

Other Commitments and Contingencies

Our mortgage loans are non-recourse to us.  However, in certain cases we have provided guarantees or master leased tenant space.  These guarantees and master leases terminate either upon the satisfaction of specified circumstances or repayment of the underlying loans.  As of June 30, 2012, the aggregate dollar amount of these guarantees and master leases is approximately $266,074,000.

At June 30, 2012, $22,195,000 of letters of credit were outstanding under one of our revolving credit facilities.  Our credit facilities contain financial covenants that require us to maintain minimum interest coverage and maximum debt to market capitalization ratios, and provide for higher interest rates in the event of a decline in our ratings below Baa3/BBB. Our credit facilities also contain customary conditions precedent to borrowing, including representations and warranties, and also contain customary events of default that could give rise to accelerated repayment, including such items as failure to pay interest or principal.

Each of our properties has been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment at various times. The environmental assessments did not reveal any material environmental contamination. However, there can be no assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites, or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant costs to us.

Two of our wholly owned subsidiaries that are contracted to develop and operate the Cleveland Medical Mart and Convention Center, in Cleveland, Ohio, are required to fund $11,500,000, primarily for tenant improvements, and they are responsible for operating expenses and are entitled to the net operating income, if any, upon the completion of development and the commencement of operations.

As of June 30, 2012, we expect to fund additional capital to certain of our partially owned entities aggregating approximately $259,607,000.

Litigation

We are from time to time involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such matters, including the matter referred to below, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In 2003, Stop & Shop filed an action against us in the New York Supreme Court, claiming that we had no right to reallocate and therefore continue to collect $5,000,000 of annual rent from Stop & Shop pursuant to a Master Agreement and Guaranty, because of the expiration of the leases to which the annual rent was previously allocated. Stop & Shop asserted that an order of the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, as modified on appeal by the District Court, froze our right to reallocate and effectively terminated our right to collect the annual rent from Stop & Shop.  We asserted a counterclaim seeking a judgment for all the unpaid annual rent accruing through the date of the judgment and a declaration that Stop & Shop will continue to be liable for the annual rent as long as any of the leases subject to the Master Agreement and Guaranty remain in effect.   After summary judgment motions by both sides were denied, the parties conducted discovery.  A trial was held in November 2010.  On November 7, 2011, the Court determined that we have a continuing right to allocate the annual rent to unexpired leases covered by the Master Agreement and Guaranty, and directed entry of a judgment in our favor ordering Stop & Shop to pay us the unpaid annual rent accrued through February 28, 2011 in the amount of $37,422,000, a portion of the annual rent due from March 1, 2011 through the date of judgment, interest, and attorneys’ fees.  On December 16, 2011, a money judgment based on the Court’s decision was entered in our favor in the amount of $56,597,000 (including interest and costs).  The amount for attorneys’ fees is being addressed in a proceeding before a special referee.  Stop & Shop has appealed the Court’s decision and the judgment, and has posted a bond to secure payment of the judgment.  On January 12, 2012, we commenced a new action against Stop & Shop seeking recovery of $2,500,000 of annual rent not included in the money judgment, plus additional annual rent as it accrues.  A motion by Stop & Shop to dismiss the new action was denied on July 19, 2012.

As of June 30, 2012, we have a $44,900,000 receivable from Stop & Shop, excluding amounts due to us for interest and costs resulting from the Court’s judgment.  As a result of Stop & Shop appealing the Court’s decision, we believe, after consultation with counsel, that the maximum reasonably possible loss is up to the total amount of the receivable of $44,900,000.

Funds From Operations (“FFO”)

FFO is computed in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude net gain from sales of depreciated real estate assets, real estate impairment losses, depreciation and amortization expense from real estate assets, extraordinary items and other specified non-cash items, including the pro-rata share of such adjustments of unconsolidated subsidiaries.  FFO and FFO per diluted share are used by management, investors and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains on sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time, rather than fluctuating based on existing market conditions.  FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash requirements and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a performance measure or cash flows as a liquidity measure.  FFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.  The calculations of both the numerator and denominator used in the computation of income per share are disclosed in footnote 18 – Income per Share , in the notes to our consolidated financial statements on page 29 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

FFO for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

FFO attributable to common shareholders plus assumed conversions was $166,672,000, or $0.89 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $243,418,000, or $1.27 per diluted share, for the prior year’s quarter.  FFO attributable to common shareholders plus assumed conversions was $516,328,000, or $2.72 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $749,349,000, or $3.91 per diluted share, for the prior year’s six months.  Details of certain items that affect comparability are discussed in the financial results summary of our “Overview.”

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We may utilize various financial instruments to mitigate the impact of interest rate fluctuations on our cash flows and earnings, including hedging strategies, depending on our analysis of the interest rate environment and the costs and risks of such strategies. As of June 30, 2012, variable rate debt with an aggregate principal amount of $211,093,000 and a weighted average interest rate of 4.13% was subject to LIBOR caps.  These caps are based on a notional amount of $211,093,000 and cap LIBOR at a weighted average rate of 4.03%.  In addition, we have one interest rate swap on a $425,000,000 loan that swapped the rate from LIBOR plus 2.00% (2.25% at June 30, 2012) to a fixed rate of 5.13% for the remaining seven-year term of the loan.

As of June 30, 2012, we have investments in mezzanine loans with an aggregate carrying amount of $54,770,000 that are based on variable interest rates which partially mitigate our exposure to a change in interest rates on our variable rate debt.

Fair Value of Debt

The estimated fair value of our consolidated debt is calculated based on current market prices and discounted cash flows at the rate at which similar loans could be made currently to borrowers with similar credit ratings, for the remaining term of such debt.  As of June 30, 2012, the estimated fair value of our consolidated debt was $10,395,000,000.

Derivative Instruments

We have, and may in the future enter into, derivative positions that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment, including our economic interest in J.C. Penney common shares.  Because these derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment, the gains or losses resulting from their mark-to-market at the end of each reporting period are recognized as an increase or decrease in “interest and other investment income, net” on our consolidated statements of income. In addition, we are, and may in the future be, subject to additional expense based on the notional amount of the derivative positions and a specified spread over LIBOR. Because the market value of these instruments can vary significantly between periods, we may experience significant fluctuations in the amount of our investment income or expense in any given period. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we recognized losses of $58,732,000 and $57,687,000, respectively, from derivative instruments, compared to a loss of $6,762,000 and income of $10,401,000, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures:  The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a‑15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2012, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting:  There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.   OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

We are from time to time involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such matters, including the matter referred to below, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In 2003, Stop & Shop filed an action against us in the New York Supreme Court, claiming that we had no right to reallocate and therefore continue to collect $5,000,000 of annual rent from Stop & Shop pursuant to a Master Agreement and Guaranty, because of the expiration of the leases to which the annual rent was previously allocated. Stop & Shop asserted that an order of the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, as modified on appeal by the District Court, froze our right to reallocate and effectively terminated our right to collect the annual rent from Stop & Shop.  We asserted a counterclaim seeking a judgment for all the unpaid annual rent accruing through the date of the judgment and a declaration that Stop & Shop will continue to be liable for the annual rent as long as any of the leases subject to the Master Agreement and Guaranty remain in effect.   After summary judgment motions by both sides were denied, the parties conducted discovery.  A trial was held in November 2010.  On November 7, 2011, the Court determined that we have a continuing right to allocate the annual rent to unexpired leases covered by the Master Agreement and Guaranty, and directed entry of a judgment in our favor ordering Stop & Shop to pay us the unpaid annual rent accrued through February 28, 2011 in the amount of $37,422,000, a portion of the annual rent due from March 1, 2011 through the date of judgment, interest, and attorneys’ fees.  On December 16, 2011, a money judgment based on the Court’s decision was entered in our favor in the amount of $56,597,000 (including interest and costs).  The amount for attorneys’ fees is being addressed in a proceeding before a special referee.  Stop & Shop has appealed the Court’s decision and the judgment, and has posted a bond to secure payment of the judgment.  On January 12, 2012, we commenced a new action against Stop & Shop seeking recovery of $2,500,000 of annual rent not included in the money judgment, plus additional annual rent as it accrues.  A motion by Stop & Shop to dismiss the new action was denied on July 19, 2012.

As of June 30, 2012, we have a $44,900,000 receivable from Stop & Shop, excluding amounts due to us for interest and costs resulting from the Court’s judgment.  As a result of Stop & Shop appealing the Court’s decision, we believe, after consultation with counsel, that the maximum reasonably possible loss is up to the total amount of the receivable of $44,900,000.
