See notes to consolidated financial statements. Page 5 VORNADO REALTY TRUST NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 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 79% of the common limited partnership interest in, the Operating Partnership at March 31, 2002. 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, 2002, the consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 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, 2001 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2002 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. Certain amounts in the prior year's financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Page 6 VORNADO REALTY TRUST NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 3. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES, as amended, which establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring every derivative instrument (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. The Statement requires that changes in the derivative instrument's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. The Company's investment securities include stock purchase warrants received from companies that provide fiber-optic network and broadband access to the Company's Office division tenants. SFAS No. 133 requires these warrants to be marked-to-market at each reporting period with the change in value recognized currently in earnings. The Company has previously marked-to-market changes in value through accumulated other comprehensive loss. Under SFAS No. 133, those changes are recognized through earnings, and accordingly, the Company has reclassified $4,110,000 from accumulated other comprehensive loss to the consolidated statement of income as of January 1, 2001. Future changes in value of such securities will be recorded through earnings. 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. Earnings allocable to the minority limited partners has been reduced by their pro-rata share of the write-off of goodwill. Previously reported Net Income Applicable to Common Shares for the three months ended March 31, 2001 would have been approximately $300,000 higher if such goodwill was not amortized in the prior year's quarter. In August 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 143, ACCOUNTING FOR ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS (effective January 1, 2003) and SFAS No. 144, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS (effective January 1, 2002). SFAS No. 143 requires the recording of the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period which it is incurred. SFAS No. 144 supersedes current accounting literature and now provides for a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale and requires discontinued operations presentation for disposals of a "component" of an entity. The adoption of these statements did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements; however under SFAS No. 144, if the Company were to dispose of a material operating property, such property's results of operations will have to be separately disclosed as discontinued operations in the Company's financial statements. Page 7 VORNADO REALTY TRUST NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 4. ACQUISITIONS, DISPOSITIONS AND FINANCINGS ACQUISITIONS CHARLES E. SMITH COMMERCIAL REALTY L.P. On January 1, 2002, the Company completed the combination of Charles E. Smith Commercial Realty L.P. ("CESCR") with Vornado. Prior to the combination, Vornado owned a 34% interest in CESCR. The consideration for the remaining 66% of CESCR was approximately $1,600,000,000, consisting of 15.6 million newly issued Vornado Operating Partnership units (valued at $607,155,000) and $991,980,000 of debt (66% of CESCR's total debt). This acquisition was recorded under the purchase method of accounting. The related purchase costs were allocated to acquired assets and assumed liabilities using their relative fair values as of January 1, 2002 based on valuations and other studies certain of which are not yet complete. Accordingly, the initial valuations are subject to change as such information is finalized. The Company believes that any such change will not be significant since the allocations were principally to real estate. The unaudited pro forma information set forth below presents the condensed consolidated statements of income for the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as if the acquisition of the CESCR described above had occurred on January 1, 2001.

CRYSTAL GATEWAY ONE On March 7, 2002, the Company acquired for $55,000,000, a mortgage on a 360,000 square foot office building, which is in the Crystal City complex in Arlington, Virginia, together with an option to purchase the property. The Company presently owns 24 office buildings in Crystal City containing over 6.9 million square feet which it acquired on January 1, 2002, in connection with the Company's acquisition of Charles E. Smith Commercial Realty L.P. described above. The Company exercised its option to acquire the property from a limited partnership, which is approximately 50% owned by Messrs. Robert H. Smith and Robert P. Kogod, trustees of the Company, in exchange for approximately $13,700,000 of Vornado Realty L.P. Operating Partnership units. The acquisition of the building is expected to close within 90 days and is subject to receipt of certain consents from third parties and other customary conditions. Page 8 VORNADO REALTY TRUST NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) DISPOSITIONS KINZIE PARK CONDOMINIUM UNITS In the first quarter of this year, the Company recognized a $1,531,000 gain 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." WRITE-OFF INVESTMENTS IN TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES In the first quarter of 2001, the Company recorded a charge of $4,723,000 resulting from the write-off of an equity investment in a technology company. In the second quarter of 2001, the Company recorded an additional charge of $13,561,000 resulting from the write-off of all of its remaining equity investments in technology companies due to both the deterioration of the financial condition of these companies and the lack of acceptance by the market of certain of their products and services. FINANCINGS On February 25, 2002, the Company sold 1,398,743 common shares based on the closing price of $42.96 on the NYSE. The net proceeds to the Company were approximately $57,042,000.

On January 2, 2002, the Newkirk Joint Ventures' partnership interests were merged into a master limited partnership (the "MLP") in which the Company has a 21% interest. In conjunction with the merger, the MLP completed a $225,000 mortgage financing collateralized by its properties, subject to the existing first and certain second mortgages on those properties. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 5.5% with a LIBOR floor of 3% (8.5% at March 31, 2002) and matures on January 31, 2005, with two one-year extension options. As a result of the financing on February 6, 2002, the MLP repaid approximately $28,200 of existing debt and distributed approximately $37,000 to the Company. (3) As at March 31, 2002, includes a 20% interest in a property which was part of the CESCR acquisition in 2002.

Page 11 VORNADO REALTY TRUST NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED LOGISTICS On February 22, 2001, the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships ("Landlord") restructured the AmeriCold Logistics leases to among other things, (i) reduce 2001's contractual rent to $146,000,000, (ii) reduce 2002's contractual rent to $150,000,000 (plus additional contingent rent in certain circumstances), (iii) increase the Landlord's share of annual maintenance capital expenditures by $4,500,000 to $9,500,000 effective January 1, 2000 and (iv) allow AmeriCold Logistics to defer rent to December 31, 2003 to the extent cash is not available, as defined in the leases, to pay such rent. 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 $1,808,000 of rent it was due for the three months ended March 31, 2002, which together with previously deferred rent is $6,809,000. 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. Under the management and development agreement, the Company has accrued a receivable of $1,031,000 at March 31, 2002 (of which $690,000 is recognized by the Company as income and the balance is reflected in the "Investment" account), which under the terms of the agreement is payable at completion of construction of Alexander's Lexington Avenue project in 2004. The Company is also owed $1,667,000 under the leasing agreement which is payable in 2002. At March 31, 2002, the Company has loans receivable from Alexander's of $119,000,000, including $24,000,000 under the $50,000,000 line of credit the Company granted to Alexander's on August 1, 2000. The loan and the line of credit were extended to April 15, 2003. The interest rates on the loan and line of credit were reset on March 15, 2002, from 13.74% to 12.48%, using a LIBOR index (with a 3% floor) plus the same spread to treasuries as previously existed. On January 12, 2001, Alexander's sold its Fordham Road property for $25,500,000, which resulted in a gain of $19,026,000, of which the Company's share was $6,298,000. In addition, Alexander's paid off the mortgage on this property at a discount, which resulted in an extraordinary gain from the early extinguishment of debt of $3,534,000, of which the Company's share was $1,170,000. The Company also received a commission of $520,000 in connection with this sale. Page 12 VORNADO REALTY TRUST NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 6. 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 $203,000 and $370,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. The estate of Bernard Mendik and certain other individuals including Mr. Greenbaum, own an entity which provides cleaning and related services and security services to office properties, including the Company's Manhattan office properties. The Company was charged fees in connection with these contracts of $13,500,000 and $12,900,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company extended its employment agreement with Mr. Fascitelli for a five year period through December 31, 2006. Pursuant to the extended employment agreement, he is entitled to receive a deferred payment on December 31, 2006 of 626,566 Vornado common shares which are valued for compensation purposes at $27,500,000 (the value of the shares on March 8, 2002, the date the extended employment agreement was signed). The number of shares was set by the Company's Compensation Committee in December 2001 to achieve a value of $25,000,000 and had appreciated $2,500,000 as of March 8, 2002. The shares are being held in an irrevocable trust for the benefit of Mr. Fascitelli and will vest on December 31, 2002. Mr. Fascitelli will also receive regular annual cash compensation as determined by the Company's Compensation Committee and will continue as a member of Vornado's Board. Mr. Fascitelli may also borrow up to $20,000,000 from the Company during the term of his 2002 employment agreement reduced by $8,600,000, the amount of his outstanding loans under his 1996 employment agreement.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES At March 31, 2002, the Company's revolving credit facility had a zero balance, and the Company utilized $80,510,000 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 carries comprehensive liability and all risk property insurance (fire, flood, extended coverage and rental loss insurance) with respect to its assets. The Company's all risk insurance policies in effect before September 11, 2001 included coverage for terrorist acts, except for acts of war. Since September 11, 2001, insurance companies are excluding terrorist acts from coverage in all risk policies. In 2002, the Company has been unable to obtain all risk insurance which includes coverage for terrorists acts for policies it has renewed including the New York City Office portfolio and may not be able to obtain such coverage for any of its other properties in the future. In March 2002, however, the Company obtained $200 million of separate coverage for terrorist acts for its New York City Office portfolio. Therefore, the Company is at risk for financial loss in excess of $200 million for terrorist acts (as defined) regarding this portfolio, which loss could be material. 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 an exclusion from all risk insurance coverage for losses due to terrorist acts is a breach of these debt instruments that allows the lenders to declare an event of default and accelerate repayment of debt. In addition, if lenders insist on coverage for these risks, 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.

SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company has four business segments: Office, Retail, Merchandise Mart Properties and Temperature Controlled Logistics.

(7) No income was recognized on the Company's loans to Primestone Investment Partners, L.P. and Vornado Operating Company for the three months ended March 31, 2002. 11. SUBSEQUENT EVENT On April 30, 2002, the Company acquired 7,944,893 partnership units of Prime Group Realty, L.P., the operating partnership of Prime Group Realty Trust (NYSE:PGE), at a foreclosure auction. The partnership units had been pledged to the Company as collateral for loans to Primestone Investment Partners L.P. (Primestone). The price the Company paid for the units was $8.35 per unit, the April 30, 2002 closing price on The New York Stock Exchange of the PGE shares for which the partnership units are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis. Primestone and its affiliated guarantors remain liable for the deficiency under the loans. As previously reported, a subsidiary of Cadim, Inc. owns a 50% participation interest in the loans to Primestone held by the Company. Under the participation arrangement, the Cadim affiliate has the right to acquire 50% of the partnership units that the Company acquired at the foreclosure auction (or the PGE shares into which they may be exchanged).

- ----------- (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 were $77,098 and 9.5% for the New York City office portfolio and $65,780 and 1.3% for the CESCR portfolio. (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. On February 22, 2001, the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships ("Landlord") restructured the AmeriCold Logistics leases to among other things, (i) reduce 2001's contractual rent to $146,000,000, (ii) reduce 2002's contractual rent to $150,000,000 (plus additional contingent rent in certain circumstances), (iii) increase the Landlord's share of annual maintenance capital expenditures by $4,500,000 to $9,500,000 effective January 1, 2000 and (iv) allow AmeriCold Logistics to defer rent to December 31, 2003 to the extent cash is not available, as defined in the leases, to pay such rent. 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 $1,808,000 of rent it was due for the three months ended March 31, 2002, which together with previously deferred rent is $6,809,000. The tenant has advised the Landlord that (i) its revenue for the current quarter ended March 31, 2002 from the warehouses it leases from the Landlord, is lower than last year by 2.2%, and (ii) its gross profit before rent at these warehouses for the corresponding period is higher than last year by $367,000 (a 0.9% increase). The decrease in revenue is primarily attributable to a reduction customer inventory turns. The increase in gross profit is primarily attributable to lower payroll expenses. Page 20 REVENUES The Company's revenues, which consist of property rentals, tenant expense reimbursements, hotel revenues, trade shows revenues and other income were $346,324,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002, compared to $242,610,000 in the prior year's quarter, an increase of $103,714,000 of which $99,715,000 resulted from the acquisition of the remaining 66% of CESCR and the resulting consolidation of their operations.

This decrease resulted primarily from the Company's $6,298,000 share of Alexander's gain on the sale of its Fordham Road property in the prior year's quarter. Page 22 INCOME FROM PARTIALLY-OWNED ENTITIES In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, the Company reflects the income it receives from (i) entities it owns less than 50% of and (ii) entities it owns more than 50% of, but which have a partner who exercises significant control, on the equity method of accounting resulting in such income appearing on one line in the Company's consolidated statements of income. Below is the detail of income from partially-owned entities by investment as well as the increase (decrease) in income of partially-owned entities for the three months ended March 31, 2002 as compared to the prior year:

- ----------- (1) On January 1, 2002, the Company acquired the remaining 66% of CESCR it did not previously own. Accordingly, CESCR is consolidated as of January 1, 2002. (2) Excludes the write-off of goodwill of $25,817 upon the adoption of SFAS 142 - "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." The Company's share of this write-off of $15,490 is reflected as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income. (3) The prior year's quarter includes a $1,300 for the Company's share of a gain on sale of a property. (4) The quarter ended March 31, 2002 excludes 570 Lexington Avenue which was sold in May 2001. Page 23 INTEREST AND OTHER INVESTMENT INCOME Interest and other investment income (interest income on mortgage loans receivable, other interest income, dividend income and net gains and losses on sale of marketable securities) was $9,643,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002, compared to $13,473,000 in the prior year's quarter, a decrease of $3,830,000. This decrease resulted primarily from the Company not recognizing income on its loans to Primestone Investment Partners, L.P. and Vornado Operating Company for the three months ended March 31, 2002. In the three months ended March 31, 2001 the Company recognized income of $3,247,000 and $601,000 in connection with these loans. INTEREST AND DEBT EXPENSE Interest and debt expense was $58,018,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002, compared to $49,395,000 in the prior year's quarter, an increase of $8,623,000. This increase was primarily comprised of (i) $25,029,000 from the acquisition of the remaining 66% of CESCR and the resulting consolidation of their operations, partially offset by (ii) a $11,450,000 savings from a 337 basis point reduction in weighted average interest rates of the Company's variable rate debt and (iii) lower average outstanding debt balances. NET GAIN (LOSS) ON DISPOSITION OF WHOLLY-OWNED AND PARTIALLY-OWNED ASSETS Net gain on disposition of wholly-owned and partially-owned assets of $1,531,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002, represents a gain from the sale of residential condominiums in Chicago, Illinois. Net loss on disposition of assets of $4,723,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 relates to the write-off of the Company's investment in a technology company. 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. The Company recorded the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle of $4,110,000 in the first quarter of 2001. The Company had previously marked-to-market changes in value of stock purchase warrants through accumulated other comprehensive loss. Under SFAS No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES, as amended, those changes are recognized through earnings, and accordingly, the Company has reclassified $4,110,000 from accumulated other comprehensive loss to the consolidated statement of income as of January 1, 2001. Future changes in value of such securities will be recorded through earnings. EXTRAORDINARY ITEM The Company recorded an extraordinary item of $1,170,000 in the first quarter of 2001 representing the Company's share of Alexander's extraordinary gain from early extinguishment of debt. Page 24 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002 Cash flow provided by operating activities of $94,862,000 was primarily comprised of (i) income of $49,403,000, (ii) adjustments for non-cash items of $89,096,000, partially offset by (iii) the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $42,106,000.

Page 29 Funds from operations 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. 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 the Company'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 the Company 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 reported by other REITs since a number of REITs, including the Company, calculate funds from operations in a manner different from that used by NAREIT. Funds from operations, as defined by NAREIT, represents net income applicable to common shares before depreciation and amortization, extraordinary items and gains or losses on sales of real estate. Funds from operations as disclosed above has been modified from this definition to adjust primarily for the effect of straight-lining of property rentals for rent escalations and leasing fee income. Below are the cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities:

FINANCINGS 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.

Page 31 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 will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The following should be read in conjunction with Item 3. Legal Proceedings in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001. On April 2, 2002, the Company filed a motion with the Court of Appeals either to vacate the stay pending Primestone's appeal from the affirmance of the Bankruptcy Court's dismissal of its bankruptcy case or to condition the continuance of the stay on the posting of a substantial bond by Primestone. On April 12, 2002, the Court of Appeals issued an order providing that the stay would be lifted unless Primestone posted a $15,000,000 bond on April 17, 2002. Primestone did not post the bond. On April 17, 2002 Primestone filed a motion to expedite oral argument or, alternatively, reinstate the stay pending appeal without a bond. In a telephone conference call held by the Court of Appeals with counsel for the Company and Primestone on April 18, counsel for the Company stated that it intended to reschedule the foreclosure auction for April 30, 2002. Following the conference call, the Court of Appeals issued an order scheduling oral argument on Primestone's appeal for May 2, 2002 and denying Primestone's request to maintain the stay pending appeal. On April 22, 2002, Primestone filed a motion seeking clarification and modification of the April 18 order to indicate that the Court of Appeals did not intend for Vornado to proceed with the foreclosure auction before the Court heard oral argument on the appeal. On April 26, 2002, the Court of Appeals denied that motion. On April 30, 2002, the Company acquired 7,944,893 partnership units of Prime Group Realty, L.P., the operating partnership of Prime Group Realty Trust (NYSE:PGE), at a foreclosure auction held in New York City. The partnership units had been pledged to the Company as collateral for loans to Primestone Investment Partners L.P. (Primestone). The price the Company paid for the units was $8.35 per unit, the April 30, 2002 closing price on The New York Stock Exchange of the PGE shares for which the partnership units are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis. Primestone and its affiliated guarantors remain liable for the deficiency under the loans. As previously reported, a subsidiary of Cadim, Inc. owns a 50% participation interest in the loans to Primestone held by the Company. Under the participation arrangement, the Cadim affiliate has the right to acquire 50% of the partnership units that the Company acquired at the foreclosure auction (or the PGE shares into which they may be exchanged). If the Court of Appeals decides to reverse the dismissal of Primestone's bankruptcy petition, that decision will not affect the rights to the Units acquired by the Company. ITEM 6.

For purposes of this Agreement, the Company shall have "Cause" to terminate Executive's employment upon Executive's: (i) conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony; (ii) willful and continued failure to use reasonable best efforts to substantially perform his duties hereunder (other than such failure resulting from Executive's incapacity due to physical or mental illness or subsequent to the issuance of a Notice of Termination by Executive for Good Reason) after demand for substantial performance is delivered by the Company in writing that specifically identifies the manner in which the Company believes Executive has not used reasonable best efforts to substantially perform his duties; or (iii) willful misconduct (including, but not limited to, a willful breach of the provisions of Section 10) that is materially economically injurious to the Company or Alexander's or to any entity in control of, controlled by or under common control with the Company or Alexander's ("Affiliates"). For purposes of this Section 6(c), no act, or failure to act, by Executive shall be considered "willful" unless committed in bad faith and without a reasonable belief that the act or omission was in the best interests of the Company, Alexander's or any 6

Affiliates thereof. Cause shall not exist under paragraph (ii) or (iii) above unless and until the Company has delivered to Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by a majority of the Board (excluding Executive for purposes of determining such majority) at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after reasonable (but in no event less than thirty (30) days) notice to Executive and an opportunity for Executive, together with his counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive was guilty of the conduct set forth in paragraph (ii) or (iii) and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. This Section 6(c) shall not prevent Executive from challenging in any court of competent jurisdiction the Board's determination that Cause exists or that Executive has failed to cure any act (or failure to act) that purportedly formed the basis for the Board's determination. (d) GOOD REASON. Executive may terminate his employment for "Good Reason" within one hundred and twenty (120) days after Executive has actual knowledge of the occurrence, without the written consent of Executive, of one of the following events that has not been cured within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof has been given by Executive to the Company: (i) the failure of Executive to be appointed to the position set forth in Section 3; (ii) the assignment to Executive of duties materially and adversely inconsistent with Executive's status as President of the Company or a material and adverse alteration in the nature of Executive's duties and/or responsibilities, reporting obligations, titles or authority; (iii) a reduction by the Company in Executive's Base Salary or a failure by the Company to pay any such amounts when due or any amounts due under the deferred compensation agreement attached as Exhibit D to the 1996 Agreement (the "Deferred Compensation Agreement"), the convertible units agreement attached as Exhibit E to the 1996 Agreement (the "Convertible Units Agreement or the 2002 Units Agreement; (iv) the relocation of the Company's principal executive offices or Executive's own office location to a location more than thirty (30) miles from New York City; (v) any purported termination of Executive's employment for Cause which is not effected pursuant to the procedures of Section 6(c) (and for purposes of this Agreement, no such purported termination shall be effective); (vi) the Company's material breach of the Company Share Option Agreement, the Convertible Units Agreement, the Deferred Compensation Agreement or the 2002 Units Agreement; (vii) the Company's failure to provide the benefits set forth in Section 5(m)(i) or 5(m)(iv) or the failure of the Company to substantially provide any material employee benefits due to be provided to Executive (other 7

than any such failure not inconsistent with any express provisions contained herein which failure affects all senior executive officers, not including for this purpose benefits provided solely to Mr. Steven Roth); (viii) the Company's failure to provide in all material respects the indemnification set forth in Section 11 of this Agreement; (ix) the material breach of the Alexander's Stock Option Agreement by Alexander's; (x) the failure by the Company or by Alexander's to provide Executive, upon the spin-off or distribution of any property by the Company or Alexander's to their shareholders, with an appropriate equitable adjustment to the Company Share Option, the Alexander's Share Option, the convertible units granted pursuant to the Convertible Units Agreement (the "Convertible Units") or the 2002 Units pursuant to the terms of the Company Share Option Agreement, the Alexander's Stock Option Agreement, the Convertible Units Agreement or the 2002 Units Agreement, as applicable; (xi) a Change in Control of the Company; (xii) the failure of the Company (i) to list (or to maintain such listing) for trading on The New York Stock Exchange or (ii) to register (or to maintain pursuant to the terms set forth on Exhibit B of the 1996 Agreement) the stock underlying the Company Share Option, the Alexander's Stock Option, the Convertible Units Agreement or the 2002 Units Agreement pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 in favor of Executive and the Rabbi Trust trustee; (xiii) the Company's material failure to disburse the loan amount in accordance with Section 5(k); or (xiv) the Company's failure to contribute the annual Rabbi Trust funding, to the extent such funding is required by the Rabbi Trust agreement. Executive's right to terminate his employment hereunder for Good Reason shall not be affected by his incapacity due to physical or mental illness. Executive's continued employment during the one hundred and twenty (120) day period referred to above in this paragraph (d) shall not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights with respect to, any act or failure to act constituting Good Reason hereunder. (e) WITHOUT CAUSE. The Company shall have the right to terminate Executive's employment hereunder without Cause by providing Executive with a Notice of Termination, and such termination shall not in and of itself be, nor shall it be deemed to be, a breach of this Agreement. 8

(f) WITHOUT GOOD REASON. Executive shall have the right to terminate his employment hereunder without Good Reason by providing the Company with a Notice of Termination, and such termination shall not in and of itself be, nor shall it be deemed to be, a breach of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Change in Control" of the Company means the occurrence of one of the following events: (1) individuals who, on the Commencement Date, constitute the Board (the "Incumbent Trustees") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board, PROVIDED that any person becoming a trustee subsequent to the Commencement Date whose election or nomination for election was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the Incumbent Trustees then on the Board (either by a specific vote or by approval of the proxy statement of the Company in which such person is named as a nominee for trustee, without objection to such nomination) shall be an Incumbent Trustee; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no individual initially elected or nominated as a trustee of the Company as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to trustees or as a result of any other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies by or on behalf of any person other than the Board shall be an Incumbent Trustee; (2) any "person" (as such term is defined in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and as used in Sections 13(d)(3) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes, after the Commencement Date, a "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 30% or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities eligible to vote for the election of the Board (the "Company Voting Securities"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that an event described in this paragraph (2) shall not be deemed to be a Change in Control if any of following becomes such a beneficial owner: (A) the Company or any majority-owned subsidiary (PROVIDED that this exclusion applies solely to the ownership levels of the Company or the majority-owned subsidiary), (B) any tax-qualified, broad-based employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Company or any majority-owned subsidiary, (C) any underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities, (D) any person pursuant to a Non-Qualifying Transaction (as defined in paragraph (3)), (E) Executive or any group of persons including Executive (or any entity controlled by Executive or any group of persons including Executive); or (F) (i) any of the partners (as of the Commencement Date) in Interstate Properties ("Interstate") including immediate family members and family trusts or family-only partnerships and any charitable foundations of such partners (the "Interstate Partners"), (ii) any entities the majority of the voting interests of which are beneficially owned by the Interstate Partners, or (iii) any "group" (as described in Rule 13d-5(b)(i) under the Exchange Act) including the Interstate Partners, PROVIDED that the Interstate Partners beneficially own a majority of the Company Voting Securities beneficially owned by such group (the persons in (i), (ii) and 9

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, OWNERSHIP OF DOCUMENTS; NON-COMPETITION. 13

(a) CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

Except as may be required or appropriate in connection with his carrying out his duties under this Agreement, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company or as may otherwise be required by law or any legal process, or as is necessary in connection with any adversarial proceeding against the Company (in which case Executive shall use his reasonable best efforts in cooperating with the Company in obtaining a protective order against disclosure by a court of competent jurisdiction), communicate or divulge any such trade secrets, information, knowledge or data to anyone other than the Company and those designated by the Company or on behalf of the Company in the furtherance of its business or to perform duties hereunder. (b) REMOVAL OF DOCUMENTS; RIGHTS TO PRODUCTS. All records, files, drawings, documents, models, equipment, and the like relating to the Company's business, which Executive has control over shall not be removed from the Company's premises without its written consent, unless such removal is in the furtherance of the Company's business or is in connection with Executive's carrying out his duties under this Agreement and, if so removed, shall be returned to the Company promptly after termination of Executive's employment hereunder, or otherwise promptly after removal if such removal occurs following termination of employment.

(d) INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. In the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Section 10, Executive agrees that the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief in a court of appropriate jurisdiction to remedy any such breach or threatened breach, Executive acknowledging that damages would be inadequate and insufficient. (e) CONTINUING OPERATION. Except as specifically provided in this Section 10, the termination of Executive's employment or of this Agreement shall have no effect on the continuing operation of this Section 10. 11. INDEMNIFICATION. (a) GENERAL. The Company agrees that if Executive is made a party or a threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a "Proceeding"), by reason of the fact that Executive is or was a trustee, director or officer of the Company, Alexander's or any subsidiary of such entities or is or was serving at the request of the Company, Alexander's or any subsidiary as a trustee, director, officer, member, employee or agent of another corporation or a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including, without limitation, service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether or not the basis of such Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a trustee, director, officer, member, employee or agent while serving as a trustee, director, officer, member, employee or agent, Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company to the fullest extent authorized by Maryland law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, against all Expenses incurred or suffered by Executive in connection therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to Executive even if Executive has ceased to be an officer, director, trustee or agent, or is no longer employed by the Company or Alexander's and shall inure to the benefit of his heirs, executors and administrators. (b) EXPENSES. As used in this Agreement, the term "Expenses" shall include, without limitation, damages, losses, judgments, liabilities, fines, penalties, excise taxes, settlements, and costs, attorneys' fees, accountants' fees, and disbursements and costs of attachment or similar bonds, investigations, and any expenses of establishing a right to indemnification under this Agreement. (c) ENFORCEMENT. If a claim or request under this Agreement is not paid by the Company or on its behalf, within thirty (30) days after a written claim or 15

request has been received by the Company, Executive may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of the claim or request and if successful in whole or in part, Executive shall be entitled to be paid also the expenses of prosecuting such suit. All obligations for indemnification hereunder shall be subject to, and paid in accordance with, applicable Maryland law. (d) PARTIAL INDEMNIFICATION. If Executive is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of any Expenses, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company, shall nevertheless indemnify Executive for the portion of such Expenses to which Executive is entitled. (e) ADVANCES OF EXPENSES. Expenses incurred by Executive in connection with any Proceeding shall be paid by the Company in advance upon request of Executive that the Company pay such Expenses; but, only in the event that Executive shall have delivered in writing to the Company (i) an undertaking to reimburse the Company for Expenses with respect to which Executive is not entitled to indemnification and (ii) an affirmation of his good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Company has been met. (f) NOTICE OF CLAIM. Executive shall give to the Company notice of any claim made against him for which indemnification will or could be sought under this Agreement.

(g) DEFENSE OF CLAIM. With respect to any Proceeding as to which Executive notifies the Company of the commencement thereof: (i) The Company will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense; and (ii) Except as otherwise provided below, to the extent that it may wish, the Company will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Executive, which in the Company's sole discretion may be regular counsel to the Company and may be counsel to other officers and directors of the Company, Alexander's or any subsidiary. Executive also shall have the right to employ his own counsel in such action, suit or proceeding if he reasonably concludes that failure to do so would involve a conflict of interest between the Company and Executive, and under such circumstances the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Company. (iii) The Company shall not be liable to indemnify Executive under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent.

The right to indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending a Proceeding in advance of its final disposition conferred in this Section 11 shall not be exclusive of any other right which Executive may have or hereafter may acquire under any statute, provision of the declaration of trust or certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Company, Alexander's or any subsidiary, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or trustees or otherwise. 12. LEGAL FEES AND EXPENSES. The Company shall reimburse Executive promptly following the Commencement Date for all legal fees and expenses reasonably incurred by Executive in connection with Executive and the Company entering into this Agreement and the 2002 Units Agreement, upon receipt of reasonable written evidence of such fees and expenses. If any contest or dispute shall arise between the Company or Alexander's and Executive regarding any provision of this Agreement, the Rabbi Trust agreement, the Company Registration Statement, the Alexander's Registration Statement, or the Alexander's Stock Option Agreement, the Company shall reimburse Executive for all legal fees and expenses reasonably incurred by Executive in connection with such contest or dispute, but only if Executive is successful in respect of substantially all of Executive's claims brought and pursued in connection with such contest or dispute. Such reimbursement shall be made as soon as practicable following the resolution of such contest or dispute (whether or not appealed) to the extent the Company receives reasonable written evidence of such fees and expenses. 13.
