VORNADO REALTY TRUST
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Organization
Vornado Realty Trust is a fully-integrated real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Vornado 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 81% of the common limited partnership interest in, the Operating Partnership at March 31, 2003. All references to the “Company” and “Vornado” refer to Vornado Realty Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership.
2. Basis of Presentation
The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2003, the consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, 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 have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Vornado’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vornado Realty Trust and its majority-owned subsidiary, Vornado Realty L.P., as well as entities in which the Company has a 50% or greater interest, provided that the Company exercises control (where the Company does not exercise control, such entities are accounted for under the equity method). All significant intercompany amounts have been eliminated. Equity interests in partially-owned corporate entities are accounted for under the equity method of accounting when the Company’s ownership interest is more than 20% but less than 50%. When partially-owned investments are in partnership form, the 20% threshold may be reduced. For all other investments, the Company uses the cost method. Equity investments are recorded initially at cost and subsequently adjusted for the Company’s share of the net income or loss and cash contributions and distributions to or from these entities.
Management has 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. Acquisitions, Dispositions and Financings
Acquisitions
Building Maintenance Service Company (“BMS”)
On January 1, 2003, the Company acquired for $13,000,000 in cash BMS, which provides cleaning, security and engineering services to office properties, including the Company’s Manhattan office properties. This company was previously owned by the estate of Bernard Mendik and certain other individuals including Mr. David R. Greenbaum, one of the Company’s executive officers. This acquisition was recorded as a business combination under the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the operations of BMS are consolidated into the accounts of the Company beginning January 1, 2003.
For the three months ended March 31, 2003, BMS revenues of $7,698,000 are included in fee income and BMS expenses of $6,068,000 are included in operating expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.
Kaempfer Company (“Kaempfer”)
On April 7, 2003, the Company acquired Kaempfer, which owns partial interests in six Class “A” office properties in Washington D.C., manages and leases these properties and four others for which it receives customary fees and has options to acquire certain other real estate interests, including the planned redevelopment of 401 M Street, a mixed-use project in Southwest Washington D.C. Kaempfer’s equity interest in the properties approximates 5.0%. The aggregate purchase price for the equity interests and the management and leasing business was $33,400,000 (consisting of $29,800,000 in cash and $3,600,000 of Vornado’s Operating Partnership Units) and may be increased by up to $9,000,000 based on the performance of the management company.
The six Class ”A” office buildings contain 1.8 million square feet and are as follows: the Warner Building located at 1299 Pennsylvania Avenue containing 600,000 square feet, the Investment Building located at 1501 K Street containing 380,000 square feet, the Commonwealth Tower located at 1300 Wilson Boulevard in Rosslyn containing 343,000 square feet, the Bowen Building located at 875 15th Street containing 220,000 square feet, 1925 K Street containing 150,000 square feet, and the Executive Tower located at 1399 New York Avenue, containing 123,000 square feet. Kaempfer, which was founded in 1977 and has 65 employees, was combined with the Company’s Charles E. Smith Commercial Realty division (“CESCR”). Mitchell N. Schear, the President of Kaempfer, has become President of CESCR.
20 Broad Street
On May 2, 2003, the Company acquired the remaining 40% of a 78-year leasehold interest in 20 Broad Street it did not already own. The purchase price was approximately $30,000,000 in cash. 20 Broad Street contains 466,000 square feet of office space, of which 348,000 square feet is leased to the New York Stock Exchange.
Dispositions
On January 9, 2003, the Company sold its Baltimore, Maryland shopping center for $4,753,000, which resulted in a net gain of $2,644,000.
In the first quarter of 2003 and 2002, the Company recognized gains of $188,000 and $1,531,000 from the sale of residential condominiums in Chicago, Illinois, which is included in the income statement caption “net gain on disposition of wholly-owned and partially-owned assets.”

(2) Includes a net gain of $6,400 from the sale of three properties and a gain of $1,600 from the early extinguishment of debt in the first quarter of 2003.

Temperature Controlled Logistics
Based on the joint venture’s policy of recognizing rental income when earned and collection is assured or cash is received, the Company did not recognize $3,376,000 and $1,808,000 of rent it was due for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, which together with previously deferred rent is $27,726,000.
On March 7, 2003, AmeriCold Logistics and the Landlord extended the deferred rent period to December 31, 2004 from December 31, 2003.
On March 28, 2003, a joint venture in which the Company has a 44% interest acquired $6,640,000 of trade receivables from AmeriCold Logistics for $6,500,000 in cash (a 2% discount).
Alexander’s
Alexander’s is managed by and its properties are leased by the Company, pursuant to agreements with a one-year term expiring in March of each year which are automatically renewable. As of March 31, 2003, the Company has a receivable from Alexander’s of $13,097,000 under the management and development agreement.
At March 31, 2003, the Company had loans receivable from Alexander’s of $119,000,000, including $24,000,000 drawn under the $50,000,000 line of credit the Company granted to Alexander’s on August 1, 2000. The maturity date of the loan and the line of credit is the earlier of January 3, 2006 or the date the Alexander’s Lexington Avenue construction loan is repaid. The interest rate on the loan and line of credit, which resets quarterly using the same spread to treasuries as presently exists with a 3% floor for treasuries, is 12.48% at March 31, 2003. The Company believes that although Alexander’s has disclosed that it does not have positive cash flow sufficient to repay this loan to the Company currently, Alexander’s will be able to repay the loan upon the successful development and permanent financing of its Lexington Avenue development project or through asset sales.
5. Other Related Party Transactions
The Company currently manages and leases the real estate assets of Interstate Properties pursuant to a management agreement. Management fees earned by the Company pursuant to the management agreement were $176,000 and $203,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002.

10. Stock-Based Compensation
As part of the 2002 annual compensation review, in lieu of stock options, on January 28, 2003 the Company granted 166,990 restricted shares at $34.50 per share (the then closing stock price on the NYSE) to employees of the Company. These awards vest over a 5-year period. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. In the first quarter of 2003, the Company recognized compensation expense of $687,000, of which $188,000 related to the January 2003 awards.
Prior to 2003, the Company accounted for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method. Accordingly, no stock-based compensation was recognized in the Company's financial statements for these years. If compensation cost for Plan awards had been determined based on fair value at the grant dates, net income and income per share would have been reduced to the pro-forma amounts below:

11. Commitments and Contingencies
At March 31, 2003, the Company’s revolving credit facility had a zero balance, and the Company utilized $9,112,000 of availability under the facility for letters of credit and guarantees.
Each of the Company’s 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 the Company.
The Company’s debt instruments, consisting of mortgage loans secured by its properties (which are generally non-recourse to the Company) and its revolving credit agreement, contain customary covenants requiring the Company to maintain insurance. There can be no assurance that the lenders under these instruments will not take the position that since the Company’s current all risk insurance policies, differ from policies in effect prior to September 11, 2001 as to coverage for terrorist acts, there are breaches of these debt instruments that allow the lenders to declare an event of default and accelerate repayment of debt. In addition, if lenders insist on coverage for these risks, as it existed prior to September 11, 2001, it could adversely affect the Company’s ability to finance and/or refinance its properties and to expand its portfolio.
From time to time, the Company has disposed of substantial amounts of real estate to third parties for which, as to certain properties, it remains contingently liable for rent payments or mortgage indebtedness.
There are various legal actions against the Company in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flow.

12. Segment Information
The Company has four business segments: Office, Retail, Merchandise Mart Properties and Temperature Controlled Logistics. Effective with the first quarter of 2003, to comply with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation G concerning non-GAAP financial measures, the Company has revised its definition of EBITDA to include minority interest, gains (losses) on the sale of depreciable real estate and income arising from the straight-lining of rent and the amortization of below market leases net of above market leases. EBITDA as disclosed represents “Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization”. The prior period EBITDA has been restated to reflect these changes.

Notes to segment information:
(1) Management considers EBITDA a supplemental measure for making decisions and assessing the performance of its segments. EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income or a substitute for cash flow as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.
(2) Interest and debt expense and depreciation and amortization included in the reconciliation of net income to EBITDA reflects amounts which are netted in income from partially-owned entities.
(3) Net of rent not recognized of $3,376 and $1,808 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT
Shareholders and Board of Trustees
Vornado Realty Trust
New York, New York
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Vornado Realty Trust as of March 31, 2003, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, 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 condensed consolidated 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet of Vornado Realty Trust as of December 31, 2002, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 6, 2003, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements and included an explanatory paragraph relating to the Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” on January 1, 2002. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2002 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 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 involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. 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 “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans” or similar expressions in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Many of the factors that will determine these items are beyond our ability to control or predict. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 under “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Item 1. Business – Certain Factors That May Adversely Affect the Company’s Business and Operations.” For these statements, we claim protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Overview
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations includes a discussion of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management 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.
A summary of the Company’s critical accounting policies is included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements, Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
Effective with the first quarter of 2003, to comply with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation G concerning non-GAAP financial measures, the Company has revised its definition of EBITDA to include minority interest, gains (losses) on the sale of depreciable real estate and income arising from the straight-lining of rent and the amortization of below market leases net of above market leases. EBITDA as disclosed represents “Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization”. The prior period EBITDA has been restated to reflect these changes.

(1) Results primarily from (i) an increase in insurance, utility and real estate taxes of $5,559, a substantial portion of which is reimbursed by tenants, and (ii) an increase in ground rent expense, bad debt expense and other non-reimbursable expenses of $643.
(2) Includes $1,788 of bad debt allowances in the three months ended March 31, 2003 recorded in connection with prior year’s common area maintenance and tax billings in connection with former Bradlees leases.
(3) Reflects an increase of $2,526 resulting from the rescheduling of two trade shows from the fourth quarter of 2002 to the first quarter of 2003.
(4) Results from (i) a $450 decrease in capitalized payroll, (ii) a $1,000 increase in professional fees primarily in connection with corporate governance, insurance and other projects and (iii) $550 for costs of developments not consummated.
As part of the 2002 annual compensation review, in lieu of stock options, on January 28, 2003 the Company granted 166,990 restricted shares at $34.50 per share (the then closing stock price on the NYSE) to employees of the Company. These awards vest over a 5-year period. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. In the first quarter of 2003, the Company recognized compensation expense of $687,000, of which $188,000 related to the January 2003 awards.
Income Applicable to Alexander’s
Income applicable to Alexander’s (loan interest income, management, leasing, development and commitment fees, and equity in income) was $7,254,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2003, compared to $5,568,000 in the prior year’s quarter, an increase of $1,686,000. This resulted primarily from increased development and guarantee fees in connection with Alexander’s Lexington Avenue development project.

(1) The Company acquired a 50% interest in the Monmouth Mall on October 19, 2002.
(2) Increase reflects (i) a net gain in the first quarter of 2003 on the sale of properties and the early extinguishment of debt, of which the Company’s share was $8,000 and (ii) a change in the estimate of depreciation in the first quarter of 2002, which was adjusted during the remainder of that year, of which the Company’s share was $1,300.
(3) On September 23, 2002, the Company acquired the remaining 50% of the Mall and 25% of the Kmart anchor store it did not previously own. Accordingly, the operations of Las Catalinas are consolidated into the accounts of the Company subsequent to September 23, 2002.
(4) Reflects a $1,095 net loss on dispositions of leasehold improvements in the first quarter of 2003, of which the Company’s share is $876.
23
Interest and Other Investment Income
Interest and other investment income (interest income on mortgage loans receivable, other interest income and dividend income) was $9,796,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, compared to $9,643,000 in the prior year’s quarter, an increase of $153,000. This increase resulted primarily from $5,655,000 of contingent interest income received in the first quarter of 2003 in connection with the Dearborn Center loan receivable repayment (23.0% effective yield), partially offset by (i) $3,198,000 due to a lower yield on the investment of the proceeds received from the May 2002 repayment of the Company’s loan to NorthStar Partnership L.P. and (ii) lower average investments and yields.
Interest and Debt Expense
Interest and debt expense was $57,753,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, compared to $58,018,000 in the prior year’s quarter, a decrease of $265,000. This decrease was primarily comprised of a $2,200,000 savings from a 55 basis point reduction in weighted average interest rates of the Company’s variable rate debt, partially offset by (i) the consolidation as of September 2002 of the Las Catalinas operations which were previously included in Income from partially-owned entities and (ii) a reduction in interest capitalized in connection with development projects.
Net Gain on Disposition of Wholly-owned and Partially-owned Assets
Net gain on disposition of wholly-owned and partially-owned assets of $188,000 and $1,531,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, represents gains from the sale of residential condominiums in Chicago, Illinois.
Gain on Sale of Real Estate
On January 9, 2003, the Company sold its Baltimore, Maryland shopping center for $4,753,000, resulting in a net gain of $2,644,000.
Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (effective January 1, 2002). SFAS No. 142 specifies that goodwill and some intangible assets will no longer be amortized but instead be subject to periodic impairment testing. In the first quarter of 2002, the Company wrote-off goodwill of approximately $30,129,000 of which (i) $15,490,000 represents its share of the goodwill arising from the Company’s investment in Temperature Controlled Logistics and (ii) $14,639,000 represents goodwill arising from the Company’s acquisition of the Hotel Pennsylvania. The write-off has been reflected as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.

(1) Represents operations which were owned for the same period in each year and excludes non-recurring income and expenses.
(2) EBITDA and the same store percentage increase (decrease) were $83,889 and 1.7% for the New York office portfolio and $70,310 and (1.0%) for the CESCR portfolio. The CESCR same store decrease of $679 reflects a reduction in third party net leasing fees of $581 (the effect of which will be partially offset by planned overhead reductions).
(3) The Company reflects its 60% share of the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships’ (“the Landlord”) equity in the rental income it receives from AmeriCold Logistics, its tenant, which leases the underlying temperature controlled warehouses used in its business. Based on the Company’s policy of recognizing rental income when earned and collection is assured or cash is received, the Company did not recognize $3,376 of rent it was due for the three months ended March 31, 2003, which together with previously deferred rent is $27,726. The tenant has advised the Landlord that (i) its revenue for the current quarter ended March 31, 2003 from the warehouses it leases from the Landlord, is lower than last year by 0.6%, and (ii) its gross profit before rent at these warehouses for the corresponding period is lower than last year by $492 (a 1.2% decrease).
(4) The decrease in same store operations was primarily due to (i) a $2,942 increase in general and administrative expenses resulting primarily from higher professional fees and a reduction in capitalized payroll and (ii) a $1,658 reduction in operating results at the Hotel Pennsylvania.
(5) Primarily reflects $6,400 for the Company’s share of Newkirk’s gain on sale of real estate in the three months ended March 31, 2003, and a charge of $6,875 for the amortization of an Officer’s compensation arrangement in the three months ended March 31, 2002.

Cash flows provided by operating activities of $120,255,000 was primarily comprised of (i) income of $91,742,000 and (ii) adjustments for non-cash items of $47,905,000 partially offset by (iii) the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $16,560,000. The adjustments for non-cash items are primarily comprised of (iv) depreciation and amortization of $52,583,000 and (v) minority interest of $38,604,000, partially offset by (vi) the effect of straight-lining of rental income of $11,349,000, (vii) equity in net income of partially-owned entities and income applicable to Alexander’s of $30,488,000 and (viii) amortization of acquired below market leases net of above market leases of $1,445,000.

Capital expenditures are categorized as follows:
• Recurring — capital improvements expended to maintain a property’s competitive position within the market and tenant improvements and leasing commissions for costs to re-lease expiring leases or renew or extend existing leases.
• Non-recurring — capital improvements completed in the year of acquisition and the following two years which were planned at the time of acquisition and tenant improvements and leasing commissions for space which was vacant at the time of acquisition of a property.

(1) Represents operations which were owned for the same period in each year and excludes non-recurring income and expenses.
(2) Same store percentage increase (decrease) was 5.6% for the New York office portfolio, and (3.1)% for the CESCR portfolio. Of the increase in New York Office EBITDA, $941 results from lower bad debt allowances in the current quarter as compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2002. The New York Office same store increase excluding this item would have been 4.3%. The CESCR same store decrease of $2,282 reflects a reduction in third party net leasing fees of $855 (the effect of which will be partially offset by planned overhead reductions).
(3) Primarily seasonality of operations.
(4) The increase in same store EBITDA is primarily due to $5,600 of look-back interest that was paid at the time of the repayment of the Dearborn Center loan receivable on March 19, 2003, partially offset by (ii) a $3,920 reduction in operating results at the Hotel Pennsylvania.
(5) Primarily reflects income in the three months ended March 31, 2003 of $6,400 for the Company’s share of Newkirk’s gain on sale of real estate and $1,600 for the Company’s share of Newkirk’s gain on early extinguishment of debt as compared to charges in the three months ended March 31, 2002 of $15,857 for impairment losses on Primestone, $6,875 for the amortization of an Officer’s compensation arrangement, and $6,874 for the write-off of 20 Times Square pre-development costs.

Funds From Operations (FFO) for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 and 2002
FFO was $130,105,000, or $1.15 per diluted share in the three months ended March 31, 2003, compared to $118,448,000, or $1.06 per diluted share in the prior year’s quarter, an increase of $11,657,000. Effective with the filing of the Company’s first quarter 2003 Form 10-Q, in order to report FFO in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s recent Regulation G concerning non-GAAP financial measures, adhere to NAREIT’s definition of FFO and to disclose FFO on a comparable basis with the vast majority of other companies in the industry, the Company has revised its definition of funds from operations to include both the effect of income arising from the straight-lining of rents and income from the amortization of acquired below market leases net of above market leases. Income from the straight-lining of rents amounted to $8,878,000, or $.06 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, and $8,578,000, or $.06 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2002. Income from the amortization of acquired below market leases net of above market leases amounted to $1,445,000, or $.01 per diluted share in the three months ended March 31, 2003 and $3,117,000, or $.02 per diluted share in the three months ended March 31, 2002. Such amounts are included in reported FFO above.
Included in FFO are certain items that affect comparability as detailed below. Before these items, first quarter 2003 FFO is 3.6% higher than first quarter 2002 on a per share basis.

FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs which is disclosed in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the applicable periods. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Management considers FFO a relevant supplemental measure of operating performance because it provides a basis for comparison among REITs. Funds from operations is computed in accordance with NAREIT’s definition, which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not compute FFO in accordance with NAREIT’s definition.

The Company anticipates that cash from continuing operations will be adequate to fund business operations and the payment of dividends and distributions on an on-going basis for more than the next twelve months; however, capital outlays for significant acquisitions would require funding from borrowings or equity offerings.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks
The Company has exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates. Market interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, beyond the control of the Company. Various financial vehicles exist which would allow management to mitigate the impact of interest rate fluctuations on the Company’s cash flows and earnings.
The Company’s exposure to a change in interest rates on its wholly-owned and partially-owned debt (all of which arises out of non-trading activity) is as follows:

(1) Includes $534,607 for the Company’s senior unsecured notes due 2007, as the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements that effectively converted the interest rate from a fixed rate of 5.625% to a floating rate of LIBOR plus .7725%, based upon the trailing 3 month LIBOR rate (2.15% if set on March 31, 2003). In accordance with SFAS 133, as amended, accounting for these swaps requires the Company to fair value the debt at each reporting period. At March 31, 2003, the fair value adjustment was $35,216, and is included in the balance of the senior unsecured notes above.
(2) The effect of a 1% change in wholly-owned debt base rates shown above excludes $153,659 of variable rate mortgage financing, cross-collateralized by the Company’s 770 Broadway and 595 Madison Avenue office properties, as the proceeds are held in a restricted mortgage escrow account which bears interest at the same rate as the loans.
(3) The effect of a 1% change in partially-owned debt base rates shown above is calculated after including $45,700 representing the Company’s 14.9% share of Prime Group Realty L.P.’s (“PGE”) outstanding variable rate debt as at December 31, 2002. PGE has not filed its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, prior to the filing of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
The fair value of the Company’s debt, based on 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, exceeds the aggregate carrying amount by approximately $144,442,000 at March 31, 2003.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Within the 90-day period prior to the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of Vornado Realty Trust’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective. No significant changes were made in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company is from time to time involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such matters, including in respect of the matters referred to below, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Primestone
As previously disclosed, Primestone filed an amended counterclaim against the Company in Delaware Chancery Court, alleging, among other things, that Vornado’s April 30, 2002 foreclosure on the collateral pledged by Primestone did not comply with the Uniform Commercial Code and that Vornado had tortiously interfered with Primestone’s business relations. On December 19, 2002, the Delaware Chancery Court dismissed all of Primestone’s counterclaims. Primestone appealed to the Delaware Supreme Court. On April 16, 2003, the Delaware Supreme Court unanimously affirmed the Chancery Court’s decision. On May 1, 2003, Primestone filed motion papers seeking to reargue the appeal.
Stop & Shop
As previously disclosed, on January 8, 2003, Stop & Shop filed a complaint with the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey claiming the Company has 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, terminated the Company’s right to reallocate. On March 3, 2003, after the Company moved to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction, Stop & Shop voluntarily withdrew its complaint. On March 26, Stop & Shop filed a new complaint in New York Supreme Court, asserting substantially the same claims as in its withdrawn District of New Jersey complaint. On April 9, 2003, the Company removed the New York Supreme Court complaint to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The Company believes that the additional rent provision of the guaranty expires at the earliest in 2012 and will vigorously oppose Stop & Shop’s complaint.
Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds
During the three months ended March 31, 2003, the Company issued 2,164 common shares upon the redemption of Class A units of the Operating Partnership held by persons who received units in private placements in earlier periods in exchange for their interests in limited partnerships that owned real estate. The common shares were issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance on Section 4(2) of that Act.
