NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

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 92.1% of the common limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership at September 30, 2009. 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.

2.	Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited. 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. 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 Report on Form 10-K and 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2008, as filed with the SEC. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vornado and the Operating Partnership, as well as certain partially owned entities in which we own more than 50%, unless a partner has shared board and management representation and substantive participation rights on all significant business decisions, or 50% or less when (i) we are the primary beneficiary and the entity qualifies as a variable interest entity, as defined by GAAP, or (ii) when we are a general partner and meet certain criteria under GAAP. All significant inter-company amounts have been eliminated. Equity interests in partially owned entities are accounted for under the equity method of accounting if they do not meet the criteria for consolidation and we have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the company. Generally an ownership interest of 20% or more is sufficient to demonstrate the ability to exercise significant influence. When partially owned investments are in partnership form, the 20% threshold for equity method accounting is generally reduced to 3% to 5%, based on our ability to influence the operating and financial policies of the partnership. Investments accounted for under the equity method are initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for our share of the net income or loss and cash contributions and distributions to or from these entities. Investments in partially owned entities that do not meet the criteria for consolidation or for equity method accounting are accounted for on the cost method.

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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Effective July 1, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) established the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) as the primary source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied to nongovernmental entities. Although the establishment of the ASC did not change current GAAP, it did change the way we refer to GAAP throughout this document to reflect the updated referencing convention.

On January 1, 2009, we adopted the guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. The guidance contained in ASC 470-20 was required to be applied retrospectively. Accordingly, net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 has been adjusted to include $8,700,000 and $25,600,000, respectively, of additional interest expense, net of amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests. In addition, in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, we have included 5,736,000 additional common shares in the computation of income per share retroactively to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, as a result of the stock portion of our common dividends during 2009. Furthermore, certain prior year balances have been reclassified in order to conform to current year presentation as a result of an update to ASC 810, Consolidation.

2.	Basis of Presentation – continued

In connection with purchase accounting for H Street, in July 2005 and April 2007 we recorded an aggregate of $222,174,000 of deferred tax liabilities representing the differences between the tax basis and the book basis of the acquired assets and liabilities multiplied by the effective tax rate. We were required to record these deferred tax liabilities because H Street and its partially owned entities were operated as C Corporations at the time they were acquired. As of January 16, 2008, we had completed all of the actions necessary to enable these entities to elect REIT status effective for the tax year beginning on January 1, 2008. Consequently, in the first quarter of 2008, we reversed the deferred tax liabilities and recognized an income tax benefit of $222,174,000 in our consolidated statement of income.

3.	Recently Issued Accounting Literature

In December 2007, the FASB issued an update to ASC 805, Business Combinations. The amended guidance contained in ASC 805 applies to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses. It also broadens the fair value measurement and recognition of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and interests transferred as a result of business combinations; and acquisition related costs will generally be expensed rather than included as part of the basis of the acquisition. The amended guidance also expands required disclosures to improve the ability to evaluate the nature and financial effects of business combinations. The amended guidance became effective for all transactions entered into on or after January 1, 2009. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2009 did not have any effect on our consolidated financial statements because there have been no acquisitions during 2009.

In December 2007, the FASB issued an update to ASC 810, Consolidation. The amended guidance contained in ASC 810 requires a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary to be reported as equity and the amount of consolidated net income specifically attributable to the noncontrolling interest to be identified in the consolidated financial statements. It also calls for consistency in the manner of reporting changes in the parent’s ownership interest and requires fair value measurement of any noncontrolling equity investment retained in a deconsolidation. The amended guidance became effective on January 1, 2009 and resulted in (i) the reclassification of minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries to noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries, a component of permanent equity on our consolidated balance sheets, (ii) the reclassification of minority interest expense to net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, on our consolidated statements of income, and (iii) additional disclosures, including a consolidated statement of changes in equity in quarterly reporting periods.

In March 2008, the FASB issued an update to ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The amended guidance contained in ASC 815 requires enhanced disclosures related to derivative instruments and hedging activities, including disclosures regarding how an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for and the impact of derivative instruments and related hedged items on an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. It also provided a new two-step model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock. The amended guidance became effective on January 1, 2009. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2008, the FASB issued an update to ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. The amended guidance contained in ASC 260 requires companies to treat unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents as “participating securities” and include such securities in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method as described in ASC 260. The amended guidance became effective on January 1, 2009 and required all prior period earnings per share data presented, to be adjusted retroactively. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on our computation of income per share.

On January 1, 2009, we adopted the provisions of ASC 470-20, which was required to be applied retrospectively. The adoption affected the accounting for our convertible and exchangeable senior debentures by requiring the initial proceeds from their sale to be allocated between a debt component and an equity component in a manner that results in interest expense on the debt component at our nonconvertible debt borrowing rate on the date of issue. The initial debt components of our $1.4 billion Convertible Senior Debentures, $1 billion Convertible Senior Debentures and $500 million Exchangeable Senior Debentures were $1,241,286,000, $926,361,000 and $457,699,000, respectively, based on the fair value of similar nonconvertible instruments issued at that time. The aggregate initial debt discount of $216,655,000 after original issuance costs allocated to the equity component was recorded in “additional capital” as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle in our consolidated statement of changes in equity. We are amortizing the discount using the effective interest method over the period the debt is expected to remain outstanding (i.e., the earliest date the holders may require us to repurchase the debentures), as additional interest expense. Accordingly, interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 has been adjusted to include $9,600,000 and $28,300,000 of amortization in the aggregate, or $8,700,000 and $25,600,000, net of amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests. Amortization for periods prior to December 31, 2007 (not presented herein) aggregating $35,552,000 has been reflected as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle in “earnings less than distributions” on our consolidated statement of changes in equity. Below is a summary of the financial statement effects of implementing the provisions of ASC 470-20 and related disclosures.

__________________

(1)

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 September 30, 2009 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 to be delivered upon conversion is 7,662 and 5,983 common shares, respectively.

On May 28, 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855, Subsequent Events. Although ASC 855 does not significantly change current practice surrounding the disclosure of subsequent events, it provides guidance on management’s assessment of subsequent events and the requirement to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. ASC 855 became effective on June 30, 2009. We have evaluated subsequent events through November 2, 2009, the date our consolidated financial statements were available to be issued for this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2009.

On June 12, 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS 167”). SFAS 167 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. SFAS 167 becomes effective for all new and existing VIEs on January 1, 2010. We are currently evaluating the impact SFAS 167 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

4.	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 (unadjusted) 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. Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in our consolidated financial statements consist primarily of (i) marketable equity securities and (ii) the assets of our deferred compensation plan (primarily marketable equity securities and equity investments in limited partnerships), for which there is a corresponding liability on our consolidated balance sheets. Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of September 30, 2009 are presented in the table below based on their level in the fair value hierarchy.

				Fair Value Hierarchy
(Amounts in thousands)		Total		Level 1	Level 2		Level 3
Marketable equity securities	$	85,717	$	85,717	$	—	$	—
Deferred compensation plan assets		76,777		39,554		—		37,223

Mandatorily redeemable instruments (included in other liabilities)	$	59,762	$	59,762	$	—	$	—

The fair value of Level 3 “deferred compensation plan assets” represents equity investments in certain limited partnerships, for which there is a corresponding Level 3 liability to the plan’s participants. The following is a summary of changes in Level 3 deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009.

(Amounts in thousands)		Beginning Balance		Total Realized/ Unrealized Gains	Purchases, Sales, Other Settlements and Issuances, net		Ending Balance
For the three months ended September 30, 2009	$	36,168	$	688	$	367	$	37,223

For the nine months ended September 30, 2009	$	34,176	$	1,998	$	1,049	$	37,223

We have estimated the fair value of all financial instruments reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at amounts which are based upon an interpretation of available market information and valuation methodologies (including discounted cash flow analyses with respect to our mezzanine loans and debt). Below is a table that sets forth the carrying amounts and fair values of our financial instruments as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008. These fair value estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized upon disposition of our financial instruments.

Toys “R” Us (“Toys”)

As of September 30, 2009, we own 32.7% of Toys. We account for our investment in Toys under the equity method and record our 32.7% share of Toys’ 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. The business of Toys is highly seasonal. Historically, Toys’ fourth quarter net income accounts for more than 80% of its fiscal year net income. As of September 30, 2009, the carrying amount of our investment in Toys does not differ materially from our share of the equity in the net assets of the parent company.

Below is a summary of Toys’ latest available financial information on a “purchase accounting” basis.

Alexander’s (NYSE: ALX)

As of September 30, 2009, 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 September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, Alexander’s owed us $57,197,000 and $44,086,000, respectively, in fees under these agreements.

Based on Alexander’s September 30, 2009 closing share price of $295.88, the market value (“fair value” pursuant to ASC 820) of our investment in Alexander’s is $489,406,000, or $302,134,000 in excess of the carrying amount on our consolidated balance sheet.

As of September 30, 2009, the carrying amount of our investment in Alexander’s exceeds our share of the equity in the net assets of Alexander’s by approximately $35,249,000. 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 real estate (land and buildings). We are amortizing the basis difference related to the buildings into earnings as additional depreciation expense over their estimated useful lives. This depreciation 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 September 30, 2009, we own 18,468,969 Lexington common shares, or approximately 16.1% of Lexington’s common equity. We account for our investment in Lexington under 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 that of 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.

As of September 30, 2009, the carrying amount of our investment in Lexington was less than our share of the equity in the net assets of Lexington by approximately $93,668,000. This basis difference resulted primarily from $107,882,000 of non-cash impairment charges we recognized in 2008 based on our conclusion that the decline in the value of Lexington’s common shares was “other-than-temporary.” The remainder of the basis difference related to 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 their carrying amounts in Lexington’s consolidated financial statements. We are amortizing the basis difference related to the buildings into earnings as additional depreciation expense over their estimated useful lives. This depreciation 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.

Based on Lexington’s September 30, 2009 closing share price of $5.10, the market value (“fair value” pursuant to ASC 820) of our investment in Lexington was $94,192,000, or $38,465,000 in excess of the carrying amount on our consolidated balance sheet. During the three months ended September 30, 2008, we concluded that our investment in Lexington was “other-than-temporarily” impaired and recognized a $7,175,000 non-cash impairment loss based on the difference between the fair value of our investment in Lexington and the carrying amount on our consolidated balance sheet.

The following is a summary of Lexington’s financial information as of June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 and for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

Represents loan loss accruals on 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 (loss) income, net” in our consolidated statement of income.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

Redeemable noncontrolling interests on our consolidated balance sheets represent Operating Partnership units held by third parties and are comprised of (i) Class A units, (ii) Series B convertible preferred units, and (iii) Series D-10, D-11, D-12, D-14 and D-15 (collectively, “Series D”) cumulative redeemable preferred units. Redeemable noncontrolling interests are presented 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” on our consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the aggregate value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests was $1,212,765,000 and $1,177,978,000, respectively. Below is a table reflecting the activity of the redeemable noncontrolling interests.

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 GAAP, 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 $59,762,000 and $83,079,000 as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

On October 30, 2009, all of the Series B convertible preferred units were redeemed by us in exchange for 139,798 Class A units.

Income Per Share

During 2009, we paid a portion of our common dividends in Vornado common shares. Consequently, we have included the 5,736,000 newly issued common shares in the computation of income per share retroactively for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008.

On April 22, 2009, we sold 17,250,000 common shares, including underwriters’ over-allotment, in an underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement at an initial public offering price of $43.00 per share. We received net proceeds of approximately $710,226,000, after the underwriters’ discount and offering expenses and contributed the net proceeds to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 17,250,000 Class A units of the Operating Partnership.

The following table provides a reconciliation of both net income and the number of common shares used in the computation of (i) basic income per common share, which utilizes the weighted average number of common shares outstanding without regard to dilutive potential common shares, and (ii) diluted income per common share, which includes the weighted average common shares and potentially dilutive share equivalents. Potentially dilutive share equivalents include our Series A convertible preferred shares, employee stock options, restricted share awards and exchangeable senior debentures due 2025.

The above table excludes fee income from partially owned entities, which is included in income from partially owned entities (see Note 5 – Investments in Partially Owned Entities).

Stock-based Compensation

Our Share Option Plan (the “Plan”) provides for grants of incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, performance shares and limited partnership units to certain of our employees and officers. We account for all stock-based compensation in accordance GAAP. Stock based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 consists of stock option awards, restricted common shares, Operating Partnership unit awards and out-performance plan awards. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we recognized $5,639,000 and $21,539,000 of stock-based compensation expense, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 we recognized $8,789,000 and $25,762,000 of stock based compensation expense, 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. As a result of these voluntary surrenders, stock-based compensation expense will be approximately $7,000,000 lower in 2009 and $9,400,000, $9,400,000, $5,700,000 and $1,000,000 lower in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively.

Commitments and Contingencies

Insurance

We carry commercial liability and all risk property insurance ((i) fire, (ii) flood, (iii) extended coverage, (iv) “acts of terrorism” as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 (“TRIPRA”), which expires in December 2014, and (v) rental loss insurance) with respect to our assets. Our New York Office, Washington, DC Office, Retail and Merchandise Mart divisions have $2.0 billion of per occurrence all risk property insurance coverage in effect through February 15, 2011. 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, and a $150,000,000 annual aggregate.

Penn Plaza Insurance Company, LLC (“PPIC”), our wholly owned 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 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 generally 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 Contractual Obligations

At September 30, 2009, there were $39,282,000 of outstanding letters of credit under our $965,000,000 revolving credit facility. Our credit facilities and our senior unsecured notes 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 and our senior unsecured notes 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 items such as the 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 $201,550,000. Of this amount, $80,923,000 is committed to the India Property Fund and is pledged as collateral to its lender.

From time to time, we have disposed of substantial amounts of real estate to third parties for which, as to certain properties, we remain contingently liable for rent payments or mortgage indebtedness that we cannot quantify.

Commitments and Contingencies - continued

We are from time to time involved in various other legal actions in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such matters individually or in the aggregate, 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 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 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 decision 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 and we anticipate that a trial date will be set for some time in 2010. We intend 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 flows.

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. Mr. Trump’s claims arose out of a dispute over the sale price of and use of proceeds from, 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 dated September 14, 2005 and July 24, 2006, the Court denied several of Mr. Trump’s motions and ultimately dismissed all of Mr. Trump’s claims, except for his claim seeking access to books and records; that claim was dismissed by virtue of a decision dated October 1, 2007 and an Order dated January 28, 2009. Mr. Trump sought re-argument and renewal on, and filed a notice of appeal in connection with the 2006 decision. In a decision dated January 6, 2009, the Court denied all of Mr. Trump’s motions. Mr. Trump filed an additional appeal of the 2006, 2007 and 2009 decisions. Mr. Trump’s appeals were denied on all grounds on June 30, 2009. Thereafter, Mr. Trump moved to reargue the appellate decisions but later withdrew the motion. On July 24, 2009 Mr. Trump moved for leave to appeal the June 30, 2009 decision to the New York Court of Appeals, which was denied on October 27, 2009. In connection with the acquisition, we agreed to indemnify the sellers for liabilities and expenses arising out of Mr. Trump’s claim that the general partners of the partnerships we acquired did not sell the rail yards at a fair price or could have sold the rail yards for a greater price and any other claims asserted in the legal action; provided however, that if Mr. Trump prevails on certain claims involving partnership matters, other than claims relating to sale price, the sellers will be required to reimburse us for certain costs related to those claims. We believe that the claims relating to the sale price are without merit. All other allegations are not asserted as a basis for damages and regardless of merit, in our opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, will not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

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. In April 2007, H Street acquired the remaining 50% interest in that fee. In April 2007, we received letters from those tenants, Street Retail, Inc. and Post Apartment Homes, L.P., claiming they had a right of first offer triggered by each of those transactions. On September 25, 2008, both tenants filed suit against us and the former owners. The claim alleges the right to purchase the fee interest, damages in excess of $75,000,000 and punitive damages. We believe this claim is without merit and regardless of merit, in our opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, will not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, we had $4,099,000 of net unrealized gains and $2,061,000 of net unrealized losses, respectively, on our marketable equity securities. During 2008, we concluded that certain of the investments in our marketable equity securities portfolio were “other-than-temporarily” impaired; accordingly, we recognized non-cash impairment charges, aggregating $20,881,000, of which $9,073,000 and $11,808,000 were recognized in the first and third quarters of 2008, respectively. Our conclusions were based on the severity of the declines in the market value of those securities and our inability to forecast a recovery in the near-term.

The following table sets forth the details of our marketable securities:

	As of September 30, 2009				As of December 31, 2008

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 un-levered 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 as an alternative to net income or cash flows and 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.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Shareholders and Board of Trustees

Vornado Realty Trust

New York, New York

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Vornado Realty Trust (the "Company") as of September 30, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, and of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. 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, 2008, 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 February 24, 2009 (October 13, 2009, as to the effects of the retrospective application of new accounting guidance on the accounting for convertible debt instruments, noncontrolling interests, and earnings per share as disclosed in Note 2), we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008 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 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 Form 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 and our future results of operations and financial condition, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. 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.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations includes a discussion of our consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009. 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, 2008 in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition. There have been no significant changes to our policies during 2009.

Overview

Business Objective and Operating Strategy

Our business objective is to maximize shareholder value, which we measure by our total return provided to our shareholders. Below is a table comparing our performance to that of the Morgan Stanley REIT Index (“RMS”) and the SNL REIT Index (“SNL”) for the following periods ending September 30, 2009:

	Total Return ⁽¹⁾
	Vornado	RMS	SNL
One-year	(25.8%)	(26.5%)	(26.0%)
Three-years	(34.2%)	(33.6%)	(31.3%)
Five-years	21.7%	5.0%	8.0%
Ten-years	226.2%	146.8%	156.2%

_________________________

(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 there is 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.

On May 14, 2009, our Board of Trustees executed its long-planned management succession strategy and elected Michael D. Fascitelli, as our Chief Executive Officer, succeeding Steven Roth, who continues to serve as Chairman of the Board.

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, 2008, for additional information regarding these factors.

Overview – continued

In the second half of 2007 the residential mortgage and capital markets began showing signs of stress, primarily in the form of escalating default rates on sub-prime mortgages, declining home values and increasing inventory nationwide. In 2008, the “credit crisis” spread to the broader commercial credit and financial markets resulting in illiquidity and volatility in the bond and equity markets. These trends and the related economic recession have continued in 2009. This economic recession has negatively affected substantially all businesses, including ours. Real estate transactions have diminished significantly and capitalization rates have risen. The commercial real estate industry may continue to be affected by declining demand for office and retail space due to bankruptcies, layoffs, downsizing, cost cutting as well as general economic conditions, which would result in lower occupancy rates and effective rents and a corresponding decrease in net income, funds from operations and cash flow. In addition, the value of investments in joint ventures, marketable securities, and mezzanine loans may continue to decline, and may result in impairment charges and/or valuation allowances and a corresponding decrease in net income and funds from operations. Impairment charges and valuation allowances are based on our judgment and represent our estimate of losses we may incur based on the difference between the carrying amounts of our investments and our estimate of the amounts we may ultimately receive upon disposition of the investments. The estimation process is inherently uncertain, and is based upon, among other factors, our expectations of future events, and accordingly, actual amounts received on these investments could differ materially from our estimates.

The trends discussed above have had an impact on our financial results during 2009. During the second quarter of 2009, we recorded a $122,738,000 mezzanine loans receivable valuation allowance. It is not possible for us to quantify the impact of the above trends, which may persist for the remainder of 2009 and beyond, on our future financial results.

2009 Dispositions:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we sold 13 retail properties, in separate transactions (primarily our California supermarkets), for an aggregate of $48,000,000 in cash, which resulted in net gains of approximately $1,444,000 in the aggregate.

2009 Financing Activities:

In the first quarter of 2009, we purchased $47,000,000 of debt secured by our cross-collateralized mortgages on 42 shopping centers for $46,231,000 in cash.

During the first quarter of 2009, we purchased $81,534,000 (aggregate face amount) of our senior unsecured notes for $75,977,000 in cash. In the second quarter of 2009, pursuant to our April 30, 2009 tender offer, we purchased an additional $173,321,000 (aggregate face amount) of our senior unsecured notes for $169,832,000 in cash. In addition, upon maturity in August 2009, we repaid the remaining $97,900,000 of our 4.5% senior unsecured notes.

On April 7, 2009, we completed a $75,000,000 financing of 4 Union Square South, Manhattan, a 203,000 square foot, fully-leased retail property. This interest-only loan has a rate of LIBOR plus 3.25% (3.50% at September 30, 2009) and matures in April 2012, with two one-year extension options. The property was previously unencumbered.

On June 1, 2009, we repaid the $50,223,000 outstanding balance of the Commerce Executive loan, which was scheduled to mature on July 31, 2009.

In June 2009, we purchased $58,399,000 (aggregate carrying amount) of the debt secured by 555 California Street Complex for $55,814,000 in cash.

On June 24, 2009, Toys “R” Us, Inc. (“Toys”) in which we own a 32.7% interest, extended its $2.0 billion credit facility which was to expire in July 2010, to May 2012. The borrowing capacity under the amended facility will remain at $2.0 billion through the original maturity date in July 2010 and will continue at $1.5 billion thereafter. The interest rate will be LIBOR plus 3.20%, which may vary based on availability, through July 2010 and LIBOR plus 4.00%, subject to usage, thereafter. In addition, on July 9, 2009, Toys issued $950 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due in 2017 at 97.399%. The proceeds from the issuance, along with existing cash, were used to repay the outstanding balance under its $1.3 billion senior credit facility, which was subsequently terminated.

During 2009, we purchased $279,922,000 (aggregate face amount) of our convertible senior debentures for $247,728,000 in cash. In October 2009, we purchased an additional $79,671,000 (aggregate face amount) of our convertible senior debentures for $76,651,000 in cash.

The new loan has a two-year term and an interest rate of LIBOR plus 3.50%, with a LIBOR floor of 1.50% (5.00% at September 30, 2009) and provides for a one-year extension through July 2012, at LIBOR plus 5.00%.

On September 14, 2009, we completed a $50,000,000 additional financing of the Universal Buildings. The additional financing has a fixed interest rate of 8.0% and matures on the same date as the existing loans in April 2014.

On September 30, 2009, we completed a public offering of $460,000,000 principal amount of 7.875% callable senior unsecured 30-year notes due October 1, 2039. Interest on the notes is payable quarterly in arrears on each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, commencing January 1, 2010. The notes were sold to the public at par and may be redeemed at our option in whole or in part beginning October 1, 2014, at a price equal to the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. These notes are subject to substantively the same financial covenants as our previously issued senior unsecured notes. We retained net proceeds of approximately $446,000,000 from the offering, which will be used for general corporate purposes.

In October 2009, we repaid $400,000,000 of the amounts outstanding under our unsecured revolving credit facilities.

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 that are not considered 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.

Net Income and EBITDA by Segment for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 - 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 un-levered 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 those of our peers. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flows and 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.

(3)	Other EBITDA is comprised of:

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

Three Months Ended September 30, 2009 vs. Three Months Ended June 30, 2009

Our revenues and expenses are subject to seasonality during the year which impacts quarterly net earnings, cash flows and funds from operations, and therefore 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.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We anticipate that cash flow from continuing operations over the next twelve months will be adequate to fund our business operations, cash distributions to unitholders of the Operating Partnership, cash dividends to shareholders, debt amortization and recurring capital expenditures. Capital requirements for significant acquisitions and development expenditures may require funding from borrowings and/or equity offerings. We may from time to time purchase or retire outstanding debt securities though cash purchases and/or exchanges for our equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such purchases and/or exchanges, 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 may determine to raise capital for future real estate acquisitions through an institutional investment fund. We would serve as the general partner of the fund for a fee and would also expect to be a limited partner of the fund and have the potential to earn certain incentives based on the fund’s performance. The fund may serve as our exclusive investment vehicle for a limited period of time for all investments that fit within the fund’s investment parameters. If we determine to raise capital through a fund, the partnership interests offered would not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and could not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under that act or an applicable exemption from those registration requirements.

We are exploring issuing commercial mortgage backed securities that would be eligible to participate in the U.S Federal Reserve’s Term Asset-Backed Loan Facility (TALF) program. There can be no assurance that we will actually participate in this program or that our securities would be eligible for participation. Any such securities offering would not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and the securities could not be offered or sold in the United States absent a registration under that act or an applicable exemption from those registration requirements.

Our consolidated outstanding debt was $12,728,012,000 at September 30, 2009, a $290,089,000 increase from the balance at December 31, 2008. This increase resulted primarily from the issuance of $460,000,000 of 7.875% senior unsecured notes on September 30, 2009 which are due October 2039. As of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, $648,250,000 and $358,468,000, respectively, was outstanding under our revolving credit facilities. During the remainder of 2009 and 2010, $84,810,000 and $899,067,000 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 $3,012,310,000 at September 30, 2009, a $184,275,000 decrease from the balance at December 31, 2008. This resulted primarily from a decrease in our share of Toys “R” Us outstanding debt.

Cash Flows for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2009

Our cash and cash equivalents were $2,560,011,000 at September 30, 2009, a $1,033,158,000 increase over the balance at December 31, 2008. This increase resulted from $489,487,000 of net cash provided by operating activities and $621,471,000 of net cash provided by financing activities, partially offset by $77,800,000 of net cash used in investing activities. Property rental income represents our primary source of net cash provided by operating activities. Our property rental income is primarily 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 and corporate level unsecured borrowings; 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 our common and preferred shareholders, as well as acquisition and development costs.

Cash flows provided by operating activities of $489,487,000 was primarily comprised of (i) net income of $271,900,000, adjusted for $276,376,000 of non-cash adjustments, including depreciation and amortization expense, mezzanine loan loss accruals, the effect of straight-lining of rental income, equity in net income of partially owned entities and amortization of below market leases, net of above market leases, (ii) distributions of income from partially owned entities of $21,484,000 partially offset by (iii) the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $80,273,000.

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 and capitalized interest and operating costs until the property is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Below are the details of capital expenditures, leasing commissions and development and redevelopment expenditures and a reconciliation of total expenditures on an accrual basis to the cash expended in the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

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 and GAAP extraordinary items, and to include depreciation and amortization expense from real estate assets 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 diminishes 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 flows 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 11 – 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 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008

FFO attributable to common shareholders plus assumed conversions was $234,246,000, or $1.25 per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared to $159,838,000, or $0.97 per diluted share in the prior year’s quarter. FFO attributable to common shareholders plus assumed conversions was $602,825,000 or $3.37 per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared to $894,829,000, or $5.27 per diluted share for the prior year’s nine months. Details of certain items that affect comparability are discussed in the financial results summary of our “Overview.”

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We have exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates. Market interest rates are sensitive to many factors that are beyond our control. Our exposure to a change in interest rates on our consolidated and non-consolidated debt (all of which arises out of non-trading activity) is as follows:

(Amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)	As at September 30, 2009						As at December 31, 2008
Consolidated debt:	Balance		Weighted Average Interest Rate	Effect of 1% Change In Base Rates			Balance		Weighted Average Interest Rate

Total change in annual net income				$	32,260
Per share-diluted				$	0.19

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 September 30, 2009, variable rate debt with an aggregate principal amount of $514,000,000 and a weighted average interest rate of 2.50% was subject to LIBOR caps. These caps are based on a notional amount of $514,000,000 and cap LIBOR at a weighted average rate of 5.39%. As of September 30, 2009, we have investments in mezzanine loans with an aggregate carrying amount of $269,976,000 that are based on variable interest rates that partially mitigate our exposure to a change in interest rates on our variable rate debt.

Fair Value of Debt

As of September 30, 2009, the carrying amount of our debt exceeds its aggregate fair value by approximately $476,826,000, 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.
