This financial statement is the responsibility of the Properties' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Management is Page 6
7 - 2 - not aware of any material factors relating to the Properties which would cause the reported financial information not to be necessarily indicative of future operating results. 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES a. BASIS OF REPORTING-The financial statement is presented on the accrual basis of accounting. b. RENTAL REVENUE-Rentals from tenants with scheduled rent increases and rent abatements are recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. c. USE OF ESTIMATES-The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 4. HOTEL LEASE WTCC is a party to a lease with a hotel operator whereby the operator, at its own expense, constructed a hotel atop The Apparel Center. The lease, which has a term of 65 years commencing January, 1977, provides for an annual base rental of $159,600, additional rent payable based on hotel revenue, as defined, and an allocation of certain real estate taxes, rehabilitation and maintenance costs. 5. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Merchandise Mart Properties, Inc. (Delaware) ("MMPI-(Del.)"), which is owned by certain of the owners of the Properties, owns Merchandise Mart Properties, Inc. ("MMPI"). As a convenience, certain amounts are disbursed or collected by one entity on behalf of another. a. The Properties reimburse MMPI for certain payroll-related expenses incurred on behalf of The Properties. b. The Properties paid MMPI management fees of $2,780,526 during 1996. Fees are calculated using various percentages of gross revenues as adjusted for uncollectible accounts and as summarized below: APPLICABLE TYPE OF REVENUE PERCENTAGE ---------------------------------------------------- ---------- Showroom (Chicago) 3.0% Showroom (Washington D.C.) 2.0% Office, retail, exposition, hotel parking and tenant services 1.5% During 1996, MMPI became a tenant of MMOL. MMPI is master leasing the entire 8th floor for the development and operation of the new market suite showrooms. Page 7
8 - 3 - The space consists of 163,133 rentable square feet. The lease period commenced June 1, 1996 through December 31, 2006, a term of 10 years, 7 months. MMPI shall pay to MMOL a monthly amount equal to the base rent, as defined. MMPI paid MMOL $1,141,931 during 1996. Mart Franchise Center, Inc., a subsidiary of MMPI, doing business as Franchising and Licensing World Center ("FLWC"), Inc., is currently master leasing 35,498 rentable square feet located on the 2nd floor of MMOL. The FLWC is a permanent exhibition/sales facility for the franchising and licensing industries as well as provides related support services. The lease period commenced January 1, 1996, and continues through March 31, 2016, a term of 20 years, 3 months. FLWC's monthly base rent is equal to $64,333 as required by the lease. FLWC's base rent under the terms and conditions within the lease was abated for a term of eleven (11) months effective January 1, 1996 through November 30, 1996. 6. FUTURE MINIMUM RENTALS UNDER TENANT LEASES The Properties lease showroom, office and retail space under noncancellable operating leases with terms ranging from 1 to 15 years. Future minimum rentals to be received as of December 31, 1996, are summarized as follows: Year ending December 31- 1997 $81,415,000 1998 76,822,000 1999 72,647,000 2000 61,575,000 2001 48,326,000 Future years 200,861,000 ------------ Total future minimum rentals $541,646,000 ============ 7. PROPERTY DAMAGE INSURANCE Property damage insurance for the Apparel Center and the Merchandise Mart is written on a combined, agreed amount basis. The combined, agreed amount exceeds the replacement value of the Apparel Center. However, based on management's evaluation, the combined replacement value of the Apparel Center and the Merchandise Mart structures and other personal property exceeds the insured coverage. 8. SALE OF EQUIPMENT On December 31, 1996, pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, MMOL sold and transferred to Unicom Thermal Technologies, Inc. ("UTT") certain fixtures and equipment to be used by UTT in the production of chilled water. Page 8
9 - 4 - The purchase price for the fixtures and equipment was, in the aggregate, $7,680,000. Payment of the purchase price is divided into three equal installments of $2,560,000. The first installment was received by MMOL on December 31, 1996. The second installment was received on December 30, 1997 and the third installment is due on December 31, 1998. Contemporaneously with the sale of fixtures and equipment, MMOL and UTT entered into a lease, pursuant to which MMOL will lease certain space to UTT in The Merchandise Mart and a chilled water service agreement by which UTT will provide The Merchandise Mart with chilled water. Pursuant to the chilled water service agreement UTT agreed to meet MMOL's cooling needs in the building up to the contract capacity on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth within the chilled water service agreement. MMOL is obligated to pay UTT the contract capacity charge equal to $90,735 usage charge or any other charges every month with respect to service during the term of this agreement. The commencement date was January 1, 1997. The term of this agreement is for twenty (20) years subject to early termination or extension as provided for within the agreement, as defined. Simultaneously MMOL and UTT entered into a lease agreement. The lease term is the same as specifically provided in the chilled water service agreement. Commencing on January 1, 2002 (the rent commencement date) UTT shall pay to MMOL an annual base rent equal to $155,000, payable in equal monthly installments. The base rent shall be adjusted on an annual basis in accordance with the escalation provision, as defined. UTT is obligated to pay all costs of the operation of UTT's business in the building, including utility charges. Following the expiration or termination of the chilled water service agreement, certain fixtures and equipment purchased by UTT pursuant to the asset purchase agreement are required to be returned to MMOL.

(2) Funds from operations does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles 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. There are no material legal or functional restrictions on the use of funds from operations. Funds from operations should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of Vornado's operating performance or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Management considers funds from operations a supplemental measure of Operating performance and along with cash flow from operating activities, financing activities, and investing activities, it provides investors with an indication of the ability of Vornado to incur and service debt, to make capital expenditures and to fund other cash needs. Funds from operations may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other REITs since a number of REITs, including Vornado's, method of calculating funds from operations is different from that used by NAREIT.
