AMENDMENT NO. 9 TO SCHEDULE 13D RELATING TO THE COMMON SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST OF PRIME GROUP REALTY TRUST Vornado Realty Trust ("Vornado"), Vornado Realty L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") and Vornado PS, L.L.C. ("Vornado PS" and, collectively with Vornado and the Operating Partnership, the "Reporting Persons") hereby amend their Statement on Schedule 13D filed with respect to the Common Shares of Beneficial Interest, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Shares"), of Prime Group Realty Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the "Issuer"). This Amendment No. 9 to Schedule 13D ("Amendment No. 9") should be read in conjunction with the Statement on Schedule 13D of the Reporting Persons filed on November 2, 2001 (the "Initial Schedule 13D"), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D of the Reporting Persons filed on November 20, 2001, by Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D of the Reporting Persons filed on December 19, 2001, by Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D of the Reporting Persons filed on December 21, 2001, by Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D of the Reporting Persons filed on December 27, 2001, by Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D of the Reporting Persons filed on January 15, 2002, by Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 13D of the Reporting Persons filed on January 31, 2002, by Amendment No. 7 to Schedule 13D of the Reporting Persons filed on February 7, 2002 and by Amendment No. 8 to Schedule 13D of the Reporting Persons filed on February 20, 2002 (as so amended, the "Schedule 13D"). This Amendment No. 9 amends the Schedule 13D only with respect to the items listed below. Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Initial Schedule 13D. Pursuant to Rule 13d-4 under the Exchange Act, each of the Reporting Persons declares that the filing of this statement shall not be construed as an admission that such Reporting Person is, for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act, the beneficial owner of any Common Shares. Any disclosures made herein with respect to persons other than the Reporting Persons are made on information and belief after making appropriate inquiry. Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction. Item 4 is hereby amended by adding the following paragraph at the end thereof: On March 20, 2002, Emanuel Pearlman, acting after discussions with certain members of management of Vornado, purchased 100 Common Shares of the Issuer with the intent of nominating Steven Roth (Chairman of the Board of Trustees and Chief Executive Officer of Vornado) and Wendy Silverstein (Executive Vice President of Vornado) for election to the Board of Trustees of the Issuer at the 2002 annual meeting of shareholders of the Issuer. However, there is no agreement between Mr. Pearlman, on the one hand, and Mr. Roth, Ms. Silverstein, Vornado, the Operating Partnership or Vornado PS, on the other hand, with respect to acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of any securities of the Issuer. On March 28, 2002, Mr. Pearlman gave notice to the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.16 of the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Issuer of his intent to nominate Mr. Roth and Ms. Silverstein for election to the Board of Trustees of the Issuer at the 2002 annual meeting of shareholders of the Issuer. -5-
