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”).  Vornado is the sole general partner of, and owned approximately 94.0% of the common limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership at March 31, 2013.  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 its consolidated subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership.  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, for the year ended December 31, 2012, 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 months ended March 31, 2013 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 February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Update No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“ASU No. 2013-02”).  ASU No. 2013-02 requires additional disclosures regarding significant reclassifications out of each component of accumulated other comprehensive income, including the effect on the respective line items of net income for amounts that are required to be reclassified into net income in their entirety and cross-references to other disclosures providing additional information for amounts that are not required to be reclassified into net income in their entirety.  The adoption of this update on January 1, 2013, did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, but resulted in additional disclosures (see Note 14 - Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ).

4.    Acquisitions

On December 21, 2012, we acquired a 58.75% interest in Independence Plaza, a three-building 1,328 unit residential complex in the Tribeca submarket of Manhattan.  Our preliminary purchase price allocation was primarily to land ($309,848,000) and building ($527,578,000).  Based on a third party appraisal and additional information about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date, which was obtained subsequent to the acquisition date, we finalized the purchase price allocation and retroactively adjusted our December 31, 2012 consolidated balance sheet.  These adjustments did not have a material impact to our consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2012.  The following is a summary of our finalized purchase price allocation:

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

We are the general partner and investment manager of our $800,000,000 Fund, to which we committed $200,000,000.  The Fund has an eight-year term and a three-year investment period, which concludes in July 2013.  During the investment period, 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.

At March 31, 2013, the Fund had nine investments with an aggregate fair value of $571,306,000, or $81,158,000 in excess of cost, and had remaining unfunded commitments of $257,956,000, of which our share was $64,489,000.  Below is a summary of income from the Fund for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

6.    Mortgage and Mezzanine Loans Receivable

As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the carrying amount of mortgage and mezzanine loans receivable was $225,221,000 and $225,359,000, respectively.  These loans have a weighted average interest rate of 10.3% at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and have maturities ranging from August 2014 to May 2016.

On March 27, 2013, we transferred, at par, a 25% participation in a mortgage loan on 701 Seventh Avenue to a third party for $59,375,000 in cash.  We acquired this participation in October 2012, together with a 25% interest in a mezzanine loan on the property.  The transfer did not qualify for sale accounting given our continuing interest in the mezzanine loan.  Accordingly, we continue to include the 25% participation in the mortgage loan in “Mortgage and Mezzanine Loans Receivable” and have recorded a $59,375,000 liability in “Other Liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheet.  Interest income on this participation will be offset by interest expense from the liability.

In the second quarter of 2013, a $50,000,000 mezzanine loan that was scheduled to mature in August 2015, was repaid.  In connection therewith, we received net proceeds of approximately $55,000,000, including prepayment penalties, which resulted in approximately $5,000,000 of income that will be recognized in the second quarter.

7.    Marketable Securities and Derivative Instruments

Our portfolio of marketable securities is comprised of equity securities that are classified as available for sale.  Available for sale securities are presented on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value.  Unrealized gains and losses resulting from the mark-to-market of these securities are included in “other comprehensive income (loss).”  Realized 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.

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

On March 4, 2013, we sold 10,000,000 J.C. Penney common shares at a price of $16.03 per share, or $160,300,000 in the aggregate, which resulted in a net loss of $36,800,000, which is included in “net gain on disposition of wholly owned and partially owned assets” on our consolidated statements of income.

As of March 31, 2013, we own an economic interest in 13,400,000 J.C. Penney common shares, or 6.1% of its outstanding common shares.  Below are the details of our investment.

We own 8,584,010 common shares at a GAAP cost of $19.71, per share, or $169,191,000 in the aggregate.  As of March 31, 2013, based on J.C. Penney’s closing share price of $15.11 per share, these shares have an aggregate fair value of $129,704,000, or $39,487,000 below our GAAP cost.  We have concluded that this decline in value is “other-than temporary” and have recorded a $39,487,000 impairment loss in the first quarter.  Our conclusion was based on the severity of decline in the stock price and our inability to forecast a recovery in the near term.

We also own an economic interest in 4,815,990 common shares through a forward contract at a weighted average strike price of $29.18 per share, or $140,525,000 in the aggregate.  The forward contract may be settled, at our election, in cash or common shares, in whole or in part, at any time prior to October 8, 2022. The counterparty may accelerate settlement, in whole or in part, on October 8, 2014, or any anniversary thereof, or in the event we were to receive a credit downgrade.  The forward contract strike price per share increases at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 95 basis points during the first two years of the contract and LIBOR plus 80 basis points thereafter.  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 months ended March 31, 2013, we recognized a loss of $22,540,000, from the mark-to-market of the underlying common shares, and as of March 31, 2013, have funded $76,002,000 in connection with this derivative position.  In the three months ended March 31, 2012, we recognized income of $1,045,000 from the mark-to-market of the underlying common shares.

As of March 31, 2013, the aggregate economic net loss on our investment in J.C. Penney, including shares sold, was $227,095,000.

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

Since the inception of our investment in Lexington in 2008, we accounted for it under the equity method of accounting, because of our ability to exercise significant influence over Lexington’s operating and financial policies.  As a result of Lexington’s common share issuances, our ownership interest has been reduced over time from approximately 17.2% to 8.8% as of March 31, 2013.  In the first quarter of 2013, we concluded that we no longer have the ability to exercise significant influence over Lexington’s operating and financial policies, and began accounting for this investment as a marketable equity security – available for sale, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities .

Below is a summary of our marketable securities portfolio as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

8.    Investments in Partially Owned Entities

Toys “R” Us (“Toys”)

As of March 31, 2013, we own 32.5% of Toys. We account for our investment in Toys under the equity method and record our 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.  The business of Toys is highly seasonal.  Historically, Toys’ fourth quarter net income accounts for more than 80% of its fiscal year net income.

In the three months ended December 31, 2012, we recorded a $40,000,000 non-cash impairment loss with regards to our investment in Toys and disclosed, that if current facts don’t change, our share of Toys’ undistributed income, which in accordance with the equity method of accounting, would increase the carrying amount of our investment above fair value, would require an offsetting impairment loss.

In the three months ended March 31, 2013, we recognized our 32.5% share of Toys’ fourth quarter net income of $78,542,000 and a corresponding non-cash impairment loss of the same amount.  Our income applicable to Toys after the impairment loss was $1,759,000, representing management fees earned and received.

As of March 31, 2013, the carrying amount of our investment in Toys is less than our share of Toys' equity by approximately $141,270,000. This basis difference resulted primarily from non-cash impairment losses aggregating $118,542,000 that we recognized in 2012 and 2013. We have allocated the basis difference to Toys' intangible assets (primarily trade names and trademarks). The basis difference is not being amortized and will be recognized upon disposition of our investment.

Alexander’s, Inc. (“Alexander’s”) (NYSE: ALX)

As of March 31, 2013, 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 March 31, 2013, Alexander’s owed us $45,623,000 in fees under these agreements.

As of March 31, 2013, the market value (“fair value” pursuant to ASC 820) of our investment in Alexander’s, based on Alexander’s March 31, 2013 closing share price of $329.69, was $545,330,000, or $373,510,000 in excess of the carrying amount on our consolidated balance sheet.  As of March 31, 2013, 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 $43,595,000.  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 depreciation 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.

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 February 20, 2013, we completed a $390,000 financing of this property. The 10-year fixed-rate interest only loan bears interest at 3.61%. This property was previously unencumbered.

(3)

In 2012, due to the rising vacancy rate at the Skyline properties (43.4% at March 31, 2013), primarily from the effects of the Base Realignment and Closure statute; insufficient cash flows to pay current obligations, including interest payments to the lender; and the significant amount of capital required to re-tenant these properties, we requested that the mortgage loan be transferred to the special servicer. In connection therewith, we entered into a forbearance agreement with the special servicer, that provides for interest shortfalls to be deferred and added to the principal balance of the loan and not give rise to a loan default. The forbearance agreement was amended on March 28, 2013, to extend its maturity through June 1, 2013. As of March 31, 2013, the deferred interest amounted to $37,127. We continue to negotiate with the special servicer to restructure the terms of the loan.

(4)

On March 25, 2013, we completed a $300,000 financing of this property. The 10-year fixed-rate interest only loan bears interest at 3.56%. The property was previously encumbered by a $282,000 floating-rate loan.

(5)

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

(6)

LIBOR floor of 1.00%.

(7)

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.

(8)

On March 28, 2013, we extended this revolving credit facility from June 2015 to June 2017, with two six-month extension options. The interest on the extended facility was reduced from LIBOR plus 135 basis points to LIBOR plus 115 basis points. In addition, the facility fee was reduced from 30 basis points to 20 basis points.

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 $55,011,000 as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

On January 25, 2013, we sold 12,000,000 5.40% Series L 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 $290,710,000, after underwriters’ discounts and issuance costs and contributed the net proceeds to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 12,000,000 Series L Preferred Units (with economic terms that mirror those of the Series L Preferred Shares).  Dividends on the Series L Preferred Shares are cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears.  The Series L 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 L Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends through the date of redemption.  The Series L Preferred Shares have no maturity date and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless redeemed by us.

On February 19, 2013, we redeemed all of the outstanding 6.75% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares and 6.75% Series H Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares at par, for an aggregate of $262,500,000 in cash, plus accrued and unpaid dividends through the date of redemption.

16.  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 on a Recurring Basis

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 March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis - continued

Real Estate Fund Investments

At March 31, 2013, our Real Estate Fund had nine investments with an aggregate fair value of $571,306,000, or $81,158,000 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 1.3 to 7.3 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 March 31, 2013.

Discount rates

Terminal capitalization rates

5.8 %

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 months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

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.

Fair Value Measurements on a Nonrecurring Basis

Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis on our consolidated balance sheets consist primarily of our investment in Toys “R” Us and real estate assets that have been written-down to estimated fair value during 2013 and 2012.  The fair values of these assets are determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including (i) discounted cash flow analysis, which considers, among other things, leasing assumptions, growth rates, discount rates and terminal capitalization rates, (ii) income capitalization approach, which considers prevailing market capitalization rates, and (iii) comparable sales activity.  Generally, we consider multiple valuation techniques when measuring fair values but in certain circumstances, a single valuation technique may be appropriate.  The tables below aggregate the fair values of these assets by their levels in the fair value hierarchy.

Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value

Financial assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets include cash equivalents (primarily money market funds, which invest in obligations of the United States government), mortgage and mezzanine loans receivable and our secured and unsecured debt.  Estimates of the fair value 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 cash equivalents is classified as Level 1 and the fair value of our mortgage and mezzanine loans receivable is classified as Level 3.  The fair value of our secured and unsecured debt are classified as Level 2.  The table below summarizes the carrying amounts and fair value of these financial instruments as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

17.    Incentive Compensation

Our 2010 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 .  Stock-based compensation expense was $7,466,000 and $6,609,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

On March 15, 2013, our Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) approved the 2013 Outperformance Plan, a performance-based equity compensation plan and related form of award agreement (the “2013 OPP”).  Under the 2013 OPP, participants have the opportunity to earn compensation payable in the form of operating partnership units in the second and/or third year during a three-year performance measurement period, if and only if, we outperform a predetermined total shareholder return (“TSR”) and/or outperform the market with respect to relative total TSR.  Awards under our 2013 OPP may be earned if (i) we achieve a TSR greater than 14% over the two-year performance measurement period, or 21% over the three-year performance measurement period (the “Absolute Component”), and/or (ii) we achieve a TSR above that of the SNL US REIT Index (the “Index”) over a two-year or three-year performance measurement period (the “Relative Component”).  To the extent awards would be earned under the Absolute Component but we underperform the Index, such awards earned 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 fully earned under the Absolute Component, awards may be increased 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, such awards earned under the Relative Component 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. Awards earned under the 2013 OPP vest 33% in year three, 33% in year four and 34% in year five. Dividends on awards earned accrue during the performance measurement period. In addition, our executive officers (for the purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act) are required to hold earned OPP awards for one year following vesting.

22.    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 losses incurred 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

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 is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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.

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 March 31, 2013, the aggregate dollar amount of these guarantees and master leases is approximately $305,000,000.

At March 31, 2013, $22,167,000 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.

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 March 31, 2013, our subsidiaries have funded approximately $4,000,000 of the commitment.

As of March 31, 2013, we expect to fund additional capital to certain of our partially owned entities aggregating approximately $169,000,000.

23.    Segment Information

As a result of certain organizational changes and asset sales in 2012, the Merchandise Mart segment no longer meets the criteria to be a separate reportable segment; accordingly, effective January 1, 2013, the remaining assets have been reclassified to our Other segment.  We have also reclassified the prior period segment financial results to conform to the current year presentation.  Below is a summary of net income and a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA (1) by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

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.

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.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Shareholders and Board of Trustees

Vornado Realty Trust

New York, New York

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Vornado Realty Trust (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.  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, 2012, 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 26, 2013, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.  In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 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, 2012.  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 months ended March 31, 2013.  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.  The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 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.

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 FTSE NAREIT Office REIT Index (“Office REIT”) for the following periods ended March 31, 2013.

(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, for additional information regarding these factors.

2013 Dispositions

On January 24, 2013, we completed the sale of the Green Acres Mall located in Valley Stream, New York, for $500,000,000.  The sale resulted in net proceeds of $185,000,000, after repaying the existing loan and closing costs, and a net gain of $202,275,000.

In the second quarter of 2013, LNR was sold for $1.053 billion.  We owned 26.2% of LNR and received net proceeds of approximately $241,000,000.

In the second quarter of 2013, we sold The Plant, a power strip shopping center in San Jose, California, for $203,000,000.  The sale resulted in net proceeds of approximately $98,000,000, after repaying the existing loan and closing costs, and a net gain of approximately $33,000,000, which will be recognized in the second quarter.

In the second quarter of 2013, we sold a retail property in Philadelphia, which is a part of the Gallery at Market Street, for $60,000,000. The sale resulted in net proceeds of $58,000,000, and a net gain of $33,000,000, which will be recognized in the second quarter.

In the second quarter of 2013, a site located in the Downtown Crossing district of Boston was sold by a joint venture, which we owned 50% of.  Our share of the net proceeds were approximately $45,000,000, which resulted in a $2,335,000 impairment loss that was recognized in the first quarter.

In the second quarter of 2013, we entered into an agreement to sell a parcel of land known as Harlem Park located at 1800 Park Avenue (at 125 th Street) in New York City for $65,000,000, plus additional amounts which may be received for brownfield credits.  The sale will result in net proceeds of approximately $62,000,000 and a net gain of approximately $22,000,000.  The sale, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to be completed in the second quarter.

2013 Financings

Secured Debt

On February 20, 2013, we completed a $390,000,000 financing of the retail condominium located at 666 Fifth Avenue at 53 rd Street, which we had acquired December 2012.  The 10-year fixed-rate interest only loan bears interest at 3.61%.  This property was previously unencumbered.  The net proceeds from this financing were approximately $387,000,000.

On March 25, 2013, we completed a $300,000,000 financing of the Outlets at Bergen Town Center, a 948,000 square foot shopping center located in Paramus, New Jersey.  The 10-year fixed-rate interest only loan bears interest at 3.56%.  The property was previously encumbered by a $282,000,000 floating-rate loan.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility

On March 28, 2013, we extended one of our two revolving credit facilities from June 2015 to June 2017, with two six-month extension options. The interest on the extended facility was reduced from LIBOR plus 135 basis points to LIBOR plus 115 basis points. In addition, the facility fee was reduced from 30 basis points to 20 basis points.

Preferred Equity

On January 25, 2013, we sold 12,000,000 5.40% Series L 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 $290,710,000, after underwriters’ discounts and issuance costs and contributed the net proceeds to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 12,000,000 Series L Preferred Units (with economic terms that mirror those of the Series L Preferred Shares).  Dividends on the Series L Preferred Shares are cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears.  The Series L 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 L Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends through the date of redemption.  The Series L Preferred Shares have no maturity date and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless redeemed by us.

On February 19, 2013, we redeemed all of the outstanding 6.75% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares and 6.75% Series H Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares at par, for an aggregate of $262,500,000 in cash, plus accrued and unpaid dividends through the date of redemption.

Recently Issued Accounting Literature

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Update No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“ASU No. 2013-02”).  ASU No. 2013-02 requires additional disclosures regarding significant reclassifications out of each component of accumulated other comprehensive income, including the effect on the respective line items of net income for amounts that are required to be reclassified into net income in their entirety and cross-references to other disclosures providing additional information for amounts that are not required to be reclassified into net income in their entirety.  The adoption of this update on January 1, 2013, did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, but resulted in additional 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, 2012 in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition. There have been no significant changes to our policies during 2013.

Washington, DC Segment

In our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, we estimated that 2013 EBITDA will be between $5,000,000 and $15,000,000 lower than 2012 EBITDA.  As of March 31, 2013, EBITDA from continuing operations was lower than 2012 by approximately $9,700,000.

Of the 2,395,000 square feet subject to BRAC, 348,000 square feet has been taken out of service for redevelopment and 552,000 square feet has been leased or is pending.  The table below summarizes the status of the BRAC space as of March 31, 2013.

In 2012, due to the rising vacancy rate at the Skyline properties (43.4% at March 31, 2013), primarily from the effects of the BRAC statute; insufficient cash flows to pay current obligations, including interest payments to the lender; and the significant amount of capital required to re-tenant these properties, we requested that the mortgage loan be transferred to the special servicer.  In connection therewith, we entered into a forbearance agreement with the special servicer, that provides for interest shortfalls to be deferred and added to the principal balance of the loan and not give rise to a loan default.  The forbearance agreement was amended on March 28, 2013, to extend its maturity through June 1, 2013.  As of March 31, 2013, the deferred interest amounted to $37,127,000.  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 March 31, 2013 and 2012

As a result of certain organizational changes and asset sales in 2012, the Merchandise Mart segment no longer meets the criteria to be a separate reportable segment; accordingly, effective January 1, 2013, the remaining assets have been reclassified to our Other segment.  We have also reclassified the prior period segment financial results to conform to the current year presentation.  Below is a summary of net income and a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA (1) by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

Net Income and EBITDA by Segment for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 - 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.

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 Compared to March 31, 2012 - continued

Income Applicable to Toys

In the three months ended December 31, 2012 we recorded a $40,000,000 non-cash impairment loss with regards to our investment in Toys and disclosed, that if current facts don’t change, our share of Toys’ undistributed income, which in accordance with the equity method of accounting, would increase the carrying amount of our investment above fair value, would require an offsetting impairment loss.

In the three months ended March 31, 2013, we recognized our 32.5% share of Toys’ fourth quarter net income of $78,542,000 and a corresponding non-cash impairment loss of the same amount.  Our income applicable to Toys after the impairment loss was $1,759,000, representing management fees earned and received.

In the three months ended March 31, 2012, we recognized net income of $116,471,000 from our investment in Toys, comprised of $114,184,000 for our 32.7% share of Toys’ net income and $2,287,000 of management fees.

Reconciliation of EBITDA to 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 same store EBITDA results on a GAAP and cash basis for each of our segments and a reconciliation of EBITDA to same store EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

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 commitments of $257,956,000 for acquisitions, including $64,489,000 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.

Other Commitments and Contingencies

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 is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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.

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 March 31, 2013, the aggregate dollar amount of these guarantees and master leases is approximately $305,000,000.

At March 31, 2013, $22,167,000 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.

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 March 31, 2013, our subsidiaries have funded approximately $4,000,000 of the commitment.

As of March 31, 2013, we expect to fund additional capital to certain of our partially owned entities aggregating approximately $169,000,000.

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 21 – Income per Share , in the notes to our consolidated financial statements on page 30 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

FFO for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 and 2012

FFO attributable to common shareholders plus assumed conversions was $201,820,000, or $1.08 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared to $348,452,000, or $1.82 per diluted share, for the prior year’s quarter.  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 have exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates. Market interest rates are sensitive to many factors that are beyond our control. Our exposure to a change in interest rates on our consolidated and non-consolidated debt (all of which arises out of non-trading activity) is as follows:

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 March 31, 2013, we have one interest rate cap with a principal amount of $60,000,000 and an interest rate of 2.36%.  This cap is based on a notional amount of $60,000,000 and caps LIBOR at a rate of 7.00%.  In addition, we have one interest rate swap on a $425,000,000 mortgage loan that swapped the rate from LIBOR plus 2.00% (2.20% at March 31, 2013) to a fixed rate of 5.13% for the remaining five-year term of the loan.

As of March 31, 2013, we have investments in mezzanine loans with an aggregate carrying amount of $150,149,000 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 March 31, 2013, the estimated fair value of our consolidated debt was $10,673,000,000.

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 months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, we recognized a loss of $22,540,000 and income of $1,045,000, respectively, from derivative instruments.
