NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
1. Organization
Vornado Realty Trust (“Vornado”) is a fully‑integrated real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and conducts its business through Vornado Realty L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). Vornado is the sole general partner of, and owned approximately 92.5% of the common limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership at June 30, 2010. All references to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “Vornado” refer to Vornado Realty Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership.
Substantially all of Vornado’s assets are held through subsidiaries of 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.
On July 8, 2010, we completed the first closing of Vornado Capital Partners, L.P., our real estate investment fund (the “Fund”) with initial equity commitments of $550,000,000, of which we committed $200,000,000. We expect to raise an additional $450,000,000 bringing total commitments to $1 billion. We serve as the general partner and investment manager of the Fund and it will be our exclusive investment vehicle during its three-year investment period for all investments that fit within the Fund’s investment parameters. The Fund’s investment parameters include debt, equity and other interests in real estate, and excludes (i) investments in vacant land and ground-up development; (ii) investments acquired by merger or primarily for our securities or properties; (iii) properties which can be combined with or relate to our existing properties; (iv) securities of commercial mortgage loan servicers and investments derived from any such investments; (v) non-controlling interests in equity and debt securities; and (vi) investments located outside of North America. The Fund has a term of eight years from the final closing date. In the six months ended June 30, 2010, we expensed $2,730,000 of Fund organization costs, which is included as a component of “general and administrative” expenses on our consolidated statement of income, and expect to incur additional expenses of approximately $3,700,000 in the third quarter of 2010.
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. We have made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated fina ncial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
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 Reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2009, as filed with the SEC. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
3. Recently Issued Accounting Literature
On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an update to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, adding new requirements for disclosures about transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair value measurements and additional disclosures about the activity within Level 3 fair value measurements. The application of this guidance on January 1, 2010 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued an update to ASC 810, Consolidation, which modifies the existing quantitative guidance used in determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) by requiring entities to qualitatively assess whether an enterprise is a primary beneficiary, based on whether the entity has (i) power over the significant activities of the VIE, and (ii) an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to the VIE. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2010 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
4. Investments in Partially Owned Entities
Toys “R” Us (“Toys”)
As of June 30, 2010, we own 32.7% 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 32.7% 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, 2010, 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.
On May 28, 2010, Toys filed a registration statement with the SEC for the offering and sale of its common stock. The offering, if completed, would result in a reduction of our percentage ownership of Toys’ equity. The size of the offering and its completion are subject to market and other conditions.
Below is a summary of Toys’ latest available financial information on a purchase accounting basis:

As of June 30, 2010, we own 32.4% of the outstanding common stock of Alexander’s. 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, 2010, Alexander’s owed us $58,817,000 in fees under these agreements.
Based on Alexander’s June 30, 2010 closing share price of $302.92, the market value (“fair value” pursuant to ASC 820) of our investment in Alexander’s is $501,050,000, or $302,732,000 in excess of the June 30, 2010 carrying amount on our consolidated balance sheet. As of June 30, 2010, 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 $60,169,000. 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 the real esta te (land and buildings). The basis difference related to the buildings is being amortized over their estimated useful lives as an adjustment to our equity in net income of Alexander’s. This amortization is not material to our share of equity in Alexander’s net income or loss. 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, 2010, we own 18,468,969 Lexington common shares, or approximately 13.8% of Lexington’s common equity. We account for our investment in Lexington on 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 financial statements.
Based on Lexington’s June 30, 2010 closing share price of $6.01, the market value (“fair value” pursuant to ASC 820) of our investment in Lexington was $110,999,000, or $55,355,000 in excess of the June 30, 2010 carrying amount on our consolidated balance sheet. As of June 30, 2010, the carrying amount of our investment in Lexington was less than our share of the equity in the net assets of Lexington by approximately $71,885,000. This basis difference resulted primarily from $107,882,000 of non-cash impairment charges recognized during 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. The basis difference related to the buildings is being amortized over their estimated useful lives as an adjustment to our equity in net income or loss of Lexington. This amortization is not material to our share of equity in Lexington’s net income or loss. The basis difference attributable to the land will be recognized upon disposition of our investment.

On July 29, 2010, as part of LNR Property Corporation’s (“LNR”) recapitalization, we acquired a 26.2% equity interest in LNR for a new investment of $116,000 in cash and conversion into equity of our mezzanine loan made to LNR’s parent, Riley HoldCo Corp. At June 30, 2010, the carrying amount of the loan was $15,000, after a $52,537 loss accrual recognized in 2009 and $6,900 in the current quarter. LNR is the industry leading servicer and special servicer of commercial mortgage loans and CMBS and a diversified real estate, investment, finance and management company. We will account for our investment in LNR on the equity method from the date of the recapitalization.
In January 2010, Equinox prepaid the entire balance of this loan which was scheduled to mature in February 2013. We received $99,314, including accrued interest, for our 50% interest in the loan which we acquired in 2006 for $57,500.
Represents loan loss accruals on certain mezzanine loans based on our estimate of the net realizable value of each loan. Our estimates are based on the present value of expected cash flows, discounted at each loan’s effective interest rate, or if a loan is collateralized, based on the fair value of the underlying collateral, adjusted for estimated costs to sell. The excess of the carrying amount over the net realizable value of a loan is recognized as a reduction of “interest and other investment income (loss), net” in our consolidated statements of income.

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. In the case of our convertible and exchangeable debt, represents the earliest date holders may require us to repurchase the debentures.
(2) On June 1, 2010, we refinanced this loan in the same amount. The new loan, which is guaranteed by the Operating Partnership, has a rate of LIBOR plus 1.40% (1.94% at June 30, 2010) and matures in June 2011, with three one-year extension options.
(3) In the fourth quarter of 2009, we requested that the Springfield Mall mortgage loan with a principal balance of $163,554 be placed with the special servicer. In March 2010, we received notice from the special servicer that the loan was in default. We are in negotiations with the special servicer; there can be no assurance as to the timing and ultimate resolution of these negotiations.
(4) In March 2010, we requested that the mortgage loan on a California retail property with a principal balance of $17,540 be placed with the special servicer. We have not made debt service payments since March and are in default. We are in negotiations with the special servicer; there can be no assurance as to the timing and ultimate resolution of these negotiations.
(5) In March 2010, we requested that the High Point Complex mortgage loan be placed with the special servicer. We have not made debt service payments since March and are in default. We are in negotiations with the special servicer; there can be no assurance as to the timing and ultimate resolution of these negotiations.
(6) This loan bears interest at the Freddie Mac Reference Note Rate plus 1.53%.
(7) This loan has a LIBOR floor of 1.50%.
(8) This loan has a LIBOR floor of 2.00%.
(9) In June 2010, we extended the maturity date of a $50,000 construction loan to February 2011, with a one-year extension option. In addition, in July 2010, we extended the maturity date of a $36,000 loan which had matured in October 2009, to September 2010, and are in negotiations to further extend this loan.
(10) On March 26, 2010, we completed a public offering of $500,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.25% senior unsecured notes due April 1, 2015. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1, commencing on October 1, 2010. The notes were sold at 99.834% of their face amount to yield 4.287%. The notes can be redeemed without penalty beginning January 1, 2015. We retained net proceeds of approximately $496,000.
(11) These notes 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. In the quarter ended March 31, 2010, we reclassified $13,866 of deferred financing costs to deferred leasing and financing costs on our consolidated balance sheet.
(12) In the second quarter of 2010, we purchased $45,251 aggregate face amount ($44,170 aggregate carrying amount) of our convertible senior debentures for $45,242 in cash, resulting in a net loss of $1,072.
(13) The net proceeds from the offering of these debentures were contributed to the Operating Partnership in the form of an inter-company loan and the Operating Partnership fully and unconditionally guaranteed payment of these debentures. There are no restrictions which limit the Operating Partnership from making distributions to Vornado and Vornado has no independent assets or operations outside of the Operating Partnership.

__________________
Pursuant to the provisions of ASC 470-20, we are required to disclose the conversion price and the number of shares on which the aggregate consideration to be delivered upon conversion is determined (principal plus excess value). Our convertible senior debentures require that upon conversion, the entire principal amount is to be settled in cash, and at our option, any excess value above the principal amount may be settled in cash or common shares. Based on the June 30, 2010 closing share price of our common shares and the conversion prices in the table above, there was no excess value; accordingly, no common shares would be issued if these securities were settled on this date. The number of common shares on which the aggregate consideration that would be delivered upon conversion is 143 and 2,641 common shares, respectively.

9. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
Redeemable noncontrolling interests on our consolidated balance sheets represent Operating Partnership units held by third parties and are comprised of Class A units and Series D-10, D-11, D-14 and D-15 (collectively, “Series D”) cumulative redeemable preferred units. Redeemable noncontrolling interests on our consolidated balance sheets are recorded at the greater of their carrying amount or redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the value from period to period are charged to “additional capital” in our consolidated statements of changes in equity. Below is a table summarizing the activity of redeemable noncontrolling interests.

Balance at June 30, 2010
As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the aggregate redemption value of our Class A operating partnership units was $1,010,913,000 and $971,628,000, respectively.
Redeemable noncontrolling interests exclude our Series G 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 $61,122,000 and $60,271,000 as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
In March and May of 2010, we redeemed 246,153 and 553,847 Series D-12 cumulative redeemable preferred units, respectively, for $16.25 per unit in cash, or $13,000,000 in the aggregate. In connection with these redemptions, we recognized a $6,972,000 net gain, of which $4,818,000 was recognized in the second quarter of 2010. Such gain is included as a component of “net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, including unit distributions,” on our consolidated statement of income.
10. 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 (un adjusted) 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 disp osition 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 primarily of (i) marketable securities, (ii) the assets of our deferred compensation plan, which are primarily marketable equity securities and equity investments in limited partnerships, (iii) short-term investments (CDARS classified as available-for-sale) and (iv) mandatorily redeemable instruments (Series G convertible preferred units and Series D-13 cumulative redeemable preferred units). The tables below aggregate the fair values of financial assets and liabilities by the levels in the fair value hierarchy at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

The above table excludes fee income from partially owned entities, which is included in income from partially owned entities (see Note 4 – Investments in Partially Owned Entities).
13. Stock-based Compensation
On May 13, 2010, our shareholders approved the 2010 Omnibus Share Plan (the “Plan’), which replaces the 2002 Omnibus Share Plan. Under the Plan, the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) may grant eligible participants awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, restricted shares and other stock-based awards and operating partnership units, certain of which may provide for dividends or dividend equivalents and voting rights prior to vesting. Awards may be granted up to a maximum of 6,000,000 shares, if all awards granted are Full Value Awards, as defined, and up to 12,000,000 shares, if all of the awards granted are Not Full Value Awards, as defined. Full Value Awards are awards of securities, such as restricted shares, that, if all vesting requirements are met, do not re quire the payment of an exercise price or strike price to acquire the securities. Not Full Value Awards are awards of securities, such as options, that do require the payment of an exercise price or strike price. This means, for example, if the Committee were to award only restricted shares, it could award up to 6,000,000 restricted shares. On the other hand, if the Committee were to award only stock options, it could award options to purchase up to 12,000,000 shares (at the applicable exercise price). The Committee may also issue any combination of awards under the Plan, with reductions in availability of future awards made in accordance with the above limitations.
We account for all stock-based compensation in accordance ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 consists of stock option awards, restricted stock awards, Operating Partnership unit awards and out-performance plan awards. Stock-based compensation expense was $8,480,000 and $5,651,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $14,957,000 and $15,900,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
On March 31, 2009, our nine most senior executives voluntarily surrendered their 2007 and 2008 stock option awards and their 2008 out-performance plan awards. Accordingly, we recognized $32,588,000 of expense in the first quarter of 2009 representing the unamortized portion of these awards, which is included as a component of “general and administrative” expense on our consolidated statement of income.

17. Retirement Plan
In the first quarter of 2009, we finalized the termination of the Merchandise Mart Properties Pension Plan, which resulted in a $2,800,000 pension settlement expense that is included as a component of general and administrative expense on our consolidated statement of income.
18. Subsequent Event
On July 29, 2010, as part of LNR Property Corporations (LNR) recapitalization, we acquired a 26.2% equity interest in LNR for a new investment of $116,000,000 in cash and conversion into equity of our mezzanine loan made to LNRs parent, Riley HoldCo Corp. At June 30, 2010, the carrying amount of the loan was $15,000,000, after a $52,537,000 loss accrual recognized in 2009 and $6,900,000 in the current quarter. LNR is the industry leading servicer and special servicer of commercial mortgage loans and CMBS and a diversified real estate, investment, finance and management company. We will account for our investment in LNR on the equity method from the date of the recapitalization.

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 $150,000,000 per occurrence, subject to a deductible in the amount of 5% of the value of the affected property, up to a $150,000,000 annual aggregate.
Penn Plaza Insurance Company, LLC (“PPIC”), our wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, acts as a re-insurer with respect to a portion of 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 TRIPRA. 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. Our coverage for NBCR losses is up to $2 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, exchangeable senior debentures, convertible senior debentures 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 and/or refinance 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, 2010, the aggregate dollar amount of these guarantees and master leases is approximately $254,042,000.
At June 30, 2010, $21,947,000 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.
We are committed to fund additional capital to certain of our partially owned entities aggregating approximately $217,800,000, of which $200,000,000 is committed to our real estate Fund.
As part of the process of obtaining the required approvals to demolish and develop our 220 Central Park South property into a new residential tower, we have committed to fund the estimated project cost of approximately $400,000,000 to $425,000,000.

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 matters referred to below, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On January 8, 2003, Stop & Shop filed a complaint with the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey (“USDC-NJ”) claiming that we had no right to reallocate and therefore continue to collect the $5,000,000 of annual rent from Stop & Shop pursuant to the Master Agreement and Guaranty, because of the expiration of the East Brunswick, Jersey City, Middletown, Union and Woodbridge leases to which the $5,000,000 of additional rent was previously allocated. Stop & Shop asserted that a prior order of the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York dated February 6, 2001, as modified on appeal to the District Court for the Southern District of New York on February 13, 2001, froze our right to reallocate which effectively terminated our right to collect the additional rent from Stop & Shop . On March 3, 2003, after we moved to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction, Stop & Shop voluntarily withdrew its complaint. On March 26, 2003, Stop & Shop filed a new complaint in New York State Supreme Court, asserting substantially the same claims as in its USDC-NJ complaint. We removed the action to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. In January 2005 that court remanded the action to the New York State Supreme Court. On February 14, 2005, we served an answer in which we asserted a counterclaim seeking a judgment for all the unpaid additional rent accruing through the date of the judgment and a declaration that Stop & Shop will continue to be liable for the additional rent as long as any of the leases subject to the Master Agreement and Guaranty remain in effect. On May 17, 2005, we filed a motion for summary judgment. On July 15, 2005, Stop & Shop opposed our motion and filed a cross-motion for summary judgment. On December 13, 2005, the Court issued its dec ision denying the motions for summary judgment. Both parties appealed the Court’s decision and on December 14, 2006, the Appellate Court division issued a decision affirming the Court’s decision. On January 16, 2007, we filed a motion for the reconsideration of one aspect of the Appellate Court’s decision which was denied on March 13, 2007. Discovery is now complete. On October 19, 2009, Stop & Shop filed a motion for leave to amend its pleadings to assert new claims for relief, including a claim for damages in an unspecified amount, and an additional affirmative defense. On April 26, 2010, Stop and Shop’s motion was denied. We anticipate that a trial date will be set for some time in 2010. We intend to continue to vigorously pursue our claims against Stop & Shop. In our opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such matters will not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash f lows.
On May 24, 2007, we acquired a 70% controlling interest in 1290 Avenue of the Americas and the 555 California Street complex. Our 70% interest was acquired through the purchase of all of the shares of a group of foreign companies that own, through U.S. entities, the 1% sole general partnership interest and a 69% limited partnership interest in the partnerships that own the two properties. The remaining 30% limited partnership interest is owned by Donald J. Trump. In August 2005, Mr. Trump brought a lawsuit in the New York State Supreme Court against, among others, the general partners of the partnerships referred to above relating to a dispute over the sale of properties located on the former Penn Central rail yards between West 59th and 72nd Streets in Manhattan which were formerly owned by the partnerships. ; In decisions issued in 2006, 2007 and 2009, the New York State Supreme Court dismissed all of Mr. Trump’s claims, and those decisions were affirmed by the Appellate Division. Mr. Trump cannot further appeal those decisions. In April 2010, Mr. Trump notified us of his intent to file a new suit claiming, among other things, that the limited partnerships should be dissolved. On April 29, 2010, we filed a motion for declaratory judgment in New York courts seeking to dispose of this claim. In June 2010, our motion was granted and a final judgment was entered that disposed of Mr. Trump’s claims with prejudice.
In July 2005, we acquired H Street Building Corporation (“H Street”) which has a subsidiary that owns, among other things, a 50% tenancy in common interest in land located in Arlington County, Virginia, known as "Pentagon Row," leased to two tenants, Street Retail, Inc. and Post Apartment Homes, L.P. In April 2007, H Street acquired the remaining 50% interest in that fee. On September 25, 2008, both tenants filed suit against us and the former owners claiming the right of first offer to purchase the fee interest, damages in excess of $75,000,000 and punitive damages. In April 2010, the Trial Court entered judgment in favor of the tenants, that we sell the land to the tenants for a net sales price of $14,992,000, representing the Trial Court’s allocation of our purchase price for H Street. T he request for damages and punitive damages was denied. We have filed a notice of appeal and the Trial Court’s judgment is stayed pending the appeal. As a result of the Trial Court’s decision, we recorded a $10,056,000 loss accrual in the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily representing previously recognized rental income.

20. 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 expense in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA includes our share of these items from partially owned entities.
(3) The tables below provide information about EBITDA from certain investments that are included in the “other” column of the preceding EBITDA by segment reconciliations. The totals for each of the columns below agree to the total EBITDA for the “other” column in the preceding EBITDA by segment reconciliations.

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Vornado Realty Trust (the "Company") as of June 30, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. 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, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 23, 2010, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements and included an explanatory paragraph relating to a change in method of accounting for debt with conversion options and noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Certain statements contained herein 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 Fo rm 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 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. 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.
Managements 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, 2010. 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.
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, 2009 in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition. There have been no significant changes to our policies during 2010.
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 ending June 30, 2010:

(1) Past performance is not necessarily indicative of how we will perform in the future.
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 thereis 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;
· Investing in fully-integrated operating companies that have a significant real estate component; and
· Developing and redeveloping our existing properties to increase returns and maximize value.
We expect to finance our growth, acquisitions and investments using internally generated funds, proceeds from possible 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 our shares or any other securities in the future.
On July 8, 2010, we completed the first closing of Vornado Capital Partners, L.P., our real estate investment fund (the Fund) with initial equity commitments of $550,000,000, of which we committed $200,000,000. We expect to raise an additional $450,000,000 bringing total commitments to $1 billion. We serve as the general partner and investment manager of the Fund and it will be our exclusive investment vehicle during its three-year investment period for all investments that fit within the Funds investment parameters. The Funds investment parameters include debt, equity and other interests in real estate, and excludes (i) investments in vacant land and ground-up development; (ii) investments acquired by merger or primarily for our securities or properties; (iii) properties which can be combined with or relate to our existing prop erties; (iv) securities of commercial mortgage loan servicers and investments derived from any such investments; (v) non-controlling interests in equity and debt securities; and (vi) investments located outside of North America. The Fund has a term of eight years from the final closing date. In the six months ended June 30, 2010, we expensed $2,730,000 of Fund organization costs, which is included as a component of general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statement of income, and expect to incur additional expenses of approximately $3,700,000 in the third quarter of 2010.
We have a large concentration of properties in the New York City metropolitan area and in the Washington, DC and Northern Virginia areas. 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 breadth and quality of services provided. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends of the national, regional and local economies, 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 Risk Factors in Item 1A of our Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 for additional information regarding these factors.
The economic recession and illiquidity and volatility in the financial and capital markets during 2008 and 2009 negatively affected substantially all businesses, including ours. Although signs of a recovery in 2010 have emerged, it is not possible for us to quantify the timing and impact of such a recovery, or lack thereof, on our future financial results.

On July 29, 2010, as part of LNR Property Corporation’s (“LNR”) recapitalization, we acquired a 26.2% equity interest in LNR for a new investment of $116,000,000 in cash and conversion into equity of our mezzanine loan made to LNR’s parent, Riley HoldCo Corp. At June 30, 2010, the carrying amount of the loan was $15,000,000, after a $52,537,000 loss accrual recognized in 2009 and $6,900,000 in the current quarter. LNR is the industry leading servicer and special servicer of commercial mortgage loans and CMBS and a diversified real estate, investment, finance and management company. We will account for our investment in LNR on the equity method from the date of the recapitalization.
2010 Financing Activities:
On March 26, 2010, we completed a public offering of $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.25% senior unsecured notes due April 1, 2015. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1, commencing on October 1, 2010. The notes were sold at 99.834% of their face amount to yield 4.287%. The notes can be redeemed without penalty beginning January 1, 2015. We retained net proceeds of approximately $496,000,000.
On June 1, 2010, we refinanced a cross-collateralized loan of approximately $85,000,000, secured by 1101 17th, 1140 Connecticut, 1730 M and 1150 17th Streets, in Washington, DC. The new loan, which is guaranteed by the Operating Partnership, has a rate of LIBOR plus 1.40% (1.94% at June 30, 2010) and matures in June 2011, with three one-year extension options.
In the second quarter of 2010, we purchased $45,251,000 aggregate face amount ($44,170,000 aggregate carrying amount) of our convertible senior debentures for $45,242,000 in cash, resulting in net loss of $1,072,000.
In June 2010, we extended the maturity date of a $50,000,000 construction loan to February 2011, with a one-year extension option. In addition, in July 2010, we extended the maturity date of a $36,000,000 loan which had matured in October 2009, to September 2010, and are in negotiations to further extend this loan.

Results from a $2,742 increase in BMS operating expenses and a $2,017 increase in reimbursable operating expenses, partially offset by a $1,206 decrease in non-reimbursable operating expenses.
Primarily from the elimination of inter-company fees from operating segments upon consolidation. See note (2) on page 44.
This decrease in expense is entirely offset by a corresponding decrease in income from the mark-to-market of the deferred compensation plan assets, a component of interest and other investment income (loss), net on our consolidated statements of income.
Primarily from higher stock-based compensation expense as a result of awards granted in March 2010.

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, 2010, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2009.

(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 our net income (loss) to EBITDA includes our share of these items from partially owned entities.

On March 31, 2009, our nine most senior executives voluntarily surrendered their 2007 and 2008 stock option awards and their 2008 out-performance plan awards. Accordingly, we recognized $32,588 of expense in the first quarter of 2009, representing the unamortized portion of these awards.
This increase in expense is entirely offset by a corresponding increase in income from the mark-to-market of the deferred compensation plan assets, a component of interest and other investment income (loss), net on our consolidated statements of income.
Primarily due to $2,800 of pension plan termination costs in 2009.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 2010
Our revenues and expenses are subject to seasonality during the year which impacts quarterly net earnings, cash flows and funds from operations, and therefore impacts comparisons of the current quarter to the previous quarter. The business of Toys is highly seasonal. Historically, Toys fourth quarter net income, which we record on a one-quarter lag basis in our first quarter, accounts for more than 80% of Toys fiscal year net income. The Office and Merchandise Mart segments have historically experienced higher utility costs in the first and third quarters of the year. The Merchandise Mart segment also has experienced higher earnings in the second and fourth quarters of the year due to major trade shows occurring in those quarters. The Retail segment revenue in the fourth quarter is typically higher due to the recognition of percentage rental income. Be low are the same store EBITDA results on a GAAP and cash basis for each of our segments for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Capital requirements for development expenditures and acquisitions (excluding Fund acquisitions as described below), may require funding from borrowings and/or equity offerings. We may from time to time purchase or retire outstanding debt 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.
We have raised, and may continue to raise, capital for future real estate acquisitions through our real estate investment Fund. On July 8, 2010, we completed the first closing of the Fund with initial equity commitments of $550,000,000, of which we committed $200,000,000. We expect to raise an additional $450,000,000 bringing total commitments to $1 billion. We serve as the general partner and investment manager of the Fund and it will be our exclusive investment vehicle for all investments that fit within the Funds investment parameters during its three-year investment period.
Cash Flows for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2010
Property rental income is our primary source of cash flow and is dependent upon the occupancy and rental rates of our properties. 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. Our cash requirements include property operating expenses, capital improvements, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, distributions to common and preferred shareholders, as well as acquisition and development costs. Our cash and cash equivalents were $652,121,000 at June 30, 2010, a $116,642,000 increase over the balance at December 31, 2009. This increase resulted from $532,365,000 of net cash provided by operating activities and $207,359,000 of net ca sh provided by investing activities, partially offset by, $623,082,000 of net cash used in financing activities.

This decrease was primarily due to net repayments of $700,000,000 under our revolving credit facilities, partially offset by the public offering of $500,000,000 of 4.25% senior unsecured notes in March 2010. During the remainder of 2010 and 2011, $373,000,000 and $1,981,000,000 of our outstanding debt matures, respectively. We may refinance such debt or choose to repay all or a portion, using existing cash balances or our revolving credit facilities.
Our share of debt of unconsolidated subsidiaries was $2,844,923,000 at June 30, 2010, a $304,717,000 decrease from the balance at December 31, 2009.

Capital Expenditures
Our capital expenditures consist of expenditures to maintain assets, tenant improvement allowances and leasing commissions. Recurring capital improvements include expenditures to maintain a property’s competitive position within the market and tenant improvements and leasing commissions necessary to re-lease expiring leases or renew or extend existing leases. Non-recurring capital improvements include expenditures completed in the year of acquisition and the following two years that were planned at the time of acquisition as well as tenant improvements and leasing commissions for space that was vacant at the time of acquisition of a property. Our development and redevelopment expenditures include all hard and soft costs associated with the development or redevelopment of a property, including tenant improvements, leasing commissions , capitalized interest and operating costs until the property is substantially complete and ready for its intended use.

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 gains from sales of depreciated real estate assets, 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 diminish es 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 flow 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 15 – Income Per Share, in the notes to our consolidated financial statements on page 24 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
FFO for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2010, and 2009
FFO attributable to common shareholders plus assumed conversions for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $204,772,000, or $1.11 per diluted share, compared to $93,515,000, or $0.54 per diluted share for the prior year’s quarter. FFO attributable to common shareholders plus assumed conversions for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $565,066,000 or $2.98 per diluted share, compared to $355,777,000, or $2.15 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.”

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, 2010, variable rate debt with an aggregate principal amount of $507,750,000 and a weighted average interest rate of 2.58% was subject to LIBOR caps. These caps are based on a notional amount of $507,750,000 and cap LIBOR at a weighted average rate of 5.39%.
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 current rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings for the remaining term of such debt. As of June 30, 2010, the estimated fair value of our consolidated debt was $10,569,552,000.
