PARAMUS, N.J--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Vornado Realty Trust (NYSE:VNO) today announced that it has agreed to sell $1 billion aggregate principal amount of 3.625% convertible senior debentures due 2026 pursuant to an effective registration statement. The aggregate net proceeds from this offering, after underwriters' discounts and expenses, are estimated to be approximately $980 million. Banc of America Securities LLC is serving as the sole manager for this offering and has a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $150 million of debentures to cover any over-allotments.

The debentures will be convertible, under certain circumstances, for common shares of Vornado Realty Trust at an initial conversion rate of 6.5168 common shares per $1,000 of principal amount of debentures. The initial conversion price of $153.45 represents a premium of 30% to yesterday's $118.04 closing price for Vornado's common shares.

The debentures will be redeemable at Vornado Realty Trust's option beginning in 2011 for the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. Holders of the debentures will have the right to require the issuer to repurchase their debentures in 2011, 2016, and 2021 and in the event of a change in control. The payment of these debentures will be guaranteed by Vornado Realty L.P., the operating partnership through which Vornado Realty Trust conducts its business.

The net proceeds from the offering will be used for working capital and other corporate purposes.
