NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1. Organization

Alexander’s, Inc. (NYSE: ALX) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), incorporated in Delaware, engaged in leasing, managing, developing and redeveloping its properties. All references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Company” and “Alexander’s” refer to Alexander’s, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. We are managed by, and our properties are leased and developed by, Vornado Realty Trust (“Vornado”) (NYSE: VNO).

2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and include the accounts of Alexander’s and its consolidated subsidiaries. All intercompany amounts have been eliminated. 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 for the year ended December 31, 2015, as filed with the SEC.

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. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

We currently operate in one business segment.

3. The Alexander Apartment Tower

The Alexander apartment tower, located above our Rego Park II shopping center, contains 312 units aggregating 255,000 square feet. The building is in lease up and we expect to reach stabilized occupancy in 2017.

4. Recently Issued Accounting Literature

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an update (“ASU 2014-09”) establishing Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers . ASU 2014-09 establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most of the existing revenue recognition guidance. ASU 2014-09 requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services and also requires certain additional disclosures. ASU 2014-09 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2016-01”) Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities to ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments . ASU 2016-01 amends certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments, including the requirement to measure certain equity investments at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. ASU 2016-01 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-01 on our consolidated financial statements.

(UNAUDITED)

4. Recently Issued Accounting Literature - continued

In February 2016, the FASB issued (“ASU 2016-02”) Leases , which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase. Lessees are required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases. Lessees will recognize expense based on the effective interest method for finance leases or on a straight-line basis for operating leases. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance. ASU 2016-02 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2016-09”) Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting to ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation . ASU 2016-09 amends several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

5. Related Party Transactions

Vornado

As of March 31, 2016, Vornado owned 32.4% of our outstanding common stock. We are managed by, and our properties are leased and developed by, Vornado, pursuant to the agreements described below, which expire in March of each year and are automatically renewable.

Management and Development Agreements

We pay Vornado an annual management fee equal to the sum of (i) $2,800,000, (ii) 2% of gross revenue from the Rego Park II shopping center, (iii) $0.50 per square foot of the tenant-occupied office and retail space at 731 Lexington Avenue and (iv) $289,000, escalating at 3% per annum, for managing the common area of 731 Lexington Avenue. Vornado is also entitled to a development fee equal to 6% of development costs, as defined. Accordingly, in March 2016 we paid Vornado a development fee of $5,784,000 related to The Alexander apartment tower.

Leasing Agreements

Vornado also provides us with leasing services for a fee of 3% of rent for the first ten years of a lease term, 2% of rent for the eleventh through the twentieth year of a lease term, and 1% of rent for the twenty-first through thirtieth year of a lease term, subject to the payment of rents by tenants. In the event third-party real estate brokers are used, the fees to Vornado increase by 1% and Vornado is responsible for the fees to the third-party real estate brokers. Vornado is also entitled to a commission upon the sale of any of our assets equal to 3% of gross proceeds, as defined, for asset sales less than $50,000,000 and 1% of gross proceeds, as defined, for asset sales of $50,000,000 or more.

Other Agreements

We also have agreements with Building Maintenance Services, a wholly owned subsidiary of Vornado, to supervise (i) cleaning, engineering and security services at our 731 Lexington Avenue property and (ii) security services at our Rego Park I and Rego Park II properties.

The following is a summary of fees to Vornado under the various agreements discussed above.

As of March 31, 2016, the amounts due to Vornado were $36,000 for development fees; $434,000 for management, property management, cleaning and security fees; and $4,000 for leasing fees. As of December 31, 2015, the amounts due to Vornado were $5,795,000 for development fees; $283,000 for management, property management and cleaning fees; and $2,473,000 for leasing fees.

Toys “R” Us (“Toys”)

As of March 31, 2016, our affiliate, Vornado owned 32.5% of Toys. Toys leases approximately 47,000 square feet of retail space at our Rego Park II shopping center. Joseph Macnow, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and Vornado’s Executive Vice President - Finance and Chief Administrative Officer and Wendy A. Silverstein, a member of our Board of Directors, represent Vornado as members of Toys’ Board of Directors. During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, we recognized $713,000 of revenue related to the space leased by Toys.

6. Marketable Securities

As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we owned 535,265 common shares of The Macerich Company (“Macerich”) (NYSE: MAC), which were received in connection with the sale of the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center (“Kings Plaza”) to Macerich in November 2012. These shares have an economic cost of $56.05 per share, or $30,000,000 in the aggregate. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the fair value of these shares was $42,414,000 and $43,191,000, respectively, based on Macerich’s closing share price of $79.24 per share and $80.69 per share, respectively. These shares are included in “marketable securities” on our consolidated balance sheets and are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are presented at fair value and unrealized gains and losses resulting from the mark-to-market of these securities are included in “other comprehensive income.”

7. Significant Tenants

Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) accounted for revenue of $26,506,000 and $23,402,000, representing approximately 48% and 45% of our total revenues for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. No other tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. If we were to lose Bloomberg as a tenant, or if Bloomberg were to be unable to fulfill its obligations under its lease, it would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In order to assist us in our continuing assessment of Bloomberg’s creditworthiness, we receive certain confidential financial information and metrics from Bloomberg. In addition, we access and evaluate financial information regarding Bloomberg from other private sources, as well as publicly available data.

In October 2014, Bloomberg exercised its option to extend leases that were scheduled to expire in December 2015 for a term of five years covering 192,000 square feet of office space at our 731 Lexington Avenue property. In January 2016, we entered into a lease amendment with Bloomberg which extends the lease term related to this space to be coterminous with the other 697,000 square feet of office space leased by Bloomberg through February 2029, with a ten-year extension option. In connection with the lease amendment, Bloomberg provided a $200,000,000 letter of credit, which amount may be reduced in certain circumstances. We may draw on this letter of credit subject to certain terms of the lease amendment, including an event of default by Bloomberg. Upon execution of the lease amendment in January 2016, we paid an $8,916,000 leasing commission of which $7,200,000 was to a third party broker and $1,716,000 was to Vornado.

9. Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. 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

Financial assets measured at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, consist of marketable securities, which are presented in the table below based on their level in the fair value hierarchy and an interest rate cap, which fair value was zero as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. There were no financial liabilities measured at fair value as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value

Financial assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets include cash equivalents and mortgages payable. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities. The fair value of our mortgages payable is calculated by discounting the future contractual cash flows of these instruments using current risk-adjusted rates available to borrowers with similar credit ratings, which are provided by a third-party specialist. The fair value of cash equivalents is classified as Level 1 and the fair values of mortgages payable are classified as Level 2. The table below summarizes the carrying amounts and fair value of these financial instruments as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

Insurance

We maintain general liability insurance with limits of $300,000,000 per occurrence and per property, and all-risk property and rental value insurance coverage with limits of $1.7 billion per occurrence, including coverage for acts of terrorism, with sub-limits for certain perils such as floods and earthquakes on each of our properties.

10. Commitments and Contingencies – continued

Fifty Ninth Street Insurance Company, LLC (“FNSIC”), our wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, acts as a direct insurer for coverage for acts of terrorism, including nuclear, biological, chemical and radiological (“NBCR”) acts, as defined by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act, which expires in December 2020. Coverage for acts of terrorism (including NBCR acts) is up to $1.7 billion per occurrence and in the aggregate. Coverage for acts of terrorism (excluding NBCR acts) is fully reinsured by third party insurance companies with no exposure to FNSIC. For NBCR acts, FNSIC is responsible for a $348,000 deductible and 16% of the balance of a covered loss, and the Federal government is responsible for the remaining 84% of a covered loss. We are ultimately responsible for any loss incurred by FNSIC.

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 the future. We are responsible for deductibles and losses in excess of our insurance coverage, which could be material.

Our mortgage loans are non-recourse to us and 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. If lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain, it could adversely affect our ability to finance our properties.

Rego Park I Litigation

On June 24, 2014, Sears Roebuck and Co. (“Sears”) filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York against Vornado and us (and certain of our subsidiaries) with regard to space that Sears leases at our Rego Park I property alleging that the defendants are liable for harm that Sears has suffered as a result of (a) water intrusions into the premises, (b) two fires in February 2014 that caused damages to those premises, and (c) alleged violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act in the premises’ parking garage. Sears asserted various causes of actions for damages and sought to compel compliance with landlord’s obligations to repair the premises and to provide security, and to compel us to abate a nuisance that Sears claims was a cause of the water intrusions into its premises. In addition to injunctive relief, Sears sought, among other things, damages of not less than $4 million and future damages it estimated would not be less than $25 million. In March 2016, Sears withdrew its claim for future damages leaving a remaining claim for property damages, which we estimate to be approximately $650,000 based on information provided by Sears. We intend to defend the remaining claim vigorously. The amount or range of reasonably possible losses, if any, is not expected to be greater than $650,000.

Paramus

In 2001, we leased 30.3 acres of land located in Paramus, New Jersey to IKEA Property, Inc. The lease has a purchase option in 2021 for $75,000,000. The property is encumbered by a $68,000,000 interest-only mortgage loan with a fixed rate of 2.90%, which matures in October 2018. The annual triple-net rent is the sum of $700,000 plus the amount of debt service on the mortgage loan. If the purchase option is exercised, we will receive net cash proceeds of approximately $7,000,000 and recognize a gain on sale of land of approximately $60,000,000. If the purchase option is not exercised, the triple-net rent for the last 20 years would include debt service sufficient to fully amortize $68,000,000 over the remaining 20-year lease term.

Letters of Credit

Approximately $2,074,000 of standby letters of credit were outstanding as of March 31, 2016.

On October 15, 2015, the New York City Department of Finance (“NYC DOF”) issued a Notice of Determination to us assessing an additional $20,100,000 of transfer taxes (including interest and penalties) in connection with the sale of Kings Plaza in November 2012. We believe that the NYC DOF’s claim is without merit and intend to vigorously contest this assessment. We have determined that the likelihood of a loss related to this issue is not probable and, after consultation with legal counsel, that the outcome of this assessment is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

There are various other legal actions against us in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, the outcome of such matters in the aggregate will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

11. Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income per share, including a reconciliation of net income and the number of shares used in computing basic and diluted income per share. Basic income per share is determined using the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is determined using the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the period, and assumes all potentially dilutive securities were converted into common shares at the earliest date possible. There were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Alexander’s, Inc.

Paramus, New Jersey

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Alexander’s, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. 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 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 Alexander’s, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 16, 2016, 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, 2015 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 in this Quarterly Report 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 future performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our future results, financial condition, results of operations 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. These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations and beliefs and are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Many of the factors that will determine these items are beyond our ability to control or predict. For a further discussion of factors that could materially affect the outcome of our forward-looking statements, see “Item 1A - Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2015. 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 the 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 after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations include a discussion of our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. 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. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

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, 2015 in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements included therein. There have been no significant changes to these policies during 2016.

Overview

Alexander’s, Inc. (NYSE: ALX) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), incorporated in Delaware, engaged in leasing, managing, developing and redeveloping its properties. All references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Company,” and “Alexander’s”, refer to Alexander’s, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. We are managed by, and our properties are leased and developed by, Vornado Realty Trust (“Vornado”) (NYSE: VNO). We have seven properties in the greater New York City metropolitan area.

We compete with a large number of property owners and developers. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends of the world, national and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants and customers, the availability and cost of capital, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations, legislation, population trends, zoning laws, and our ability to lease, sublease or sell our properties, at profitable levels. Our success is also subject to our ability to refinance existing debt on acceptable terms as it comes due.

Quarter Ended March 31, 2016 Financial Results Summary

Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was $22,019,000, or $4.31 per diluted share, compared to $17,822,000, or $3.49 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Funds from operations (“FFO”) for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was $30,250,000, or $5.92 per diluted share, compared to $25,136,000, or $4.92 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2015.

Square Footage, Occupancy and Leasing Activity

As of March 31, 2016, our portfolio was comprised of seven properties aggregating 2,437,000 square feet. As of March 31, 2016, our office and retail properties had an occupancy rate of 99.7% and The Alexander apartment tower had an occupancy rate of 42.1%.

Financing

In March 2016, we completed a two-year extension of the 100% cash collateralized loan on Rego Park I. The interest-only loan has a fixed rate of 0.35%.

Significant Tenants

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended March 31, 2016, compared to March 31, 2015

Property Rentals

Property rentals were $36,653,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared to $34,501,000 in the prior year’s quarter, an increase of $2,152,000. This increase is primarily due to (i) higher rental income of $1,072,000 from the lease amendment with Bloomberg at 731 Lexington Avenue in January 2016 and (ii) rental income of $784,000 from The Alexander apartment tower, which was placed in service in phases beginning July 2015.

Expense Reimbursements

Tenant expense reimbursements were $18,905,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared to $17,535,000 in the prior year’s quarter, an increase of $1,370,000. This increase is primarily due to $1,711,000 of higher recoveries of real estate taxes and operating expenses from Bloomberg at 731 Lexington Avenue, as a result of the lease amendment in January 2016, which converted 192,000 square feet from a gross rent basis to a net rent basis, partially offset by lower operating expense reimbursements during the current quarter.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were $19,654,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared to $19,046,000 in the prior year’s quarter, an increase of $608,000. This increase was primarily comprised of (i) higher reimbursable real estate taxes of $638,000 and (ii) higher operating expenses of $867,000 related to The Alexander apartment tower; partially offset by (iii) lower utility expenses of $479,000 and (iv) lower insurance expenses of $261,000.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization was $8,333,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared to $7,350,000 in the prior year’s quarter, an increase of $983,000. This increase was primarily due to depreciation related to The Alexander apartment tower which was not in service during the prior year’s quarter.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $1,235,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared to $1,270,000 in the prior year’s quarter, a decrease of $35,000.

Interest and Other Income, net

Interest and other income, net was $1,091,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared to $400,000 in the prior year’s quarter, an increase of $691,000. This increase was primarily due to income in connection with a settlement agreement with a former tenant that went bankrupt at our Rego Park I property and a cost reimbursement settlement with a retail tenant at our 731 Lexington Avenue property.

Interest and Debt Expense

Interest and debt expense was $5,406,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared to $6,945,000 in the prior year’s quarter, a decrease of $1,539,000. This decrease was primarily due to (i) savings of $2,330,000 resulting from the refinancing of the retail portion of 731 Lexington Avenue on August 5, 2015 at LIBOR plus 1.40% (1.84% as of March 31, 2016); as compared to the 4.93% fixed rate on the previous loan, partially offset by (ii) lower capitalized interest of $459,000 (The Alexander apartment tower) and (iii) an increase in LIBOR.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $2,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared to $3,000 in the prior year’s quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

Property rental income is our primary source of cash flow and is dependent on a number of factors, including the occupancy level and rental rates of our properties, as well as our tenants’ ability to pay their rents. Our properties provide us with a relatively consistent stream of cash flow that enables us to pay our operating expenses, interest expense, recurring capital expenditures and cash dividends to stockholders. Other sources of liquidity to fund cash requirements include our existing cash, proceeds from financings, including mortgage or construction loans secured by our properties and proceeds from asset sales. We anticipate that cash flows from continuing operations over the next twelve months, together with existing cash balances, will be adequate to fund our business operations, cash dividends to stockholders, debt amortization and capital expenditures.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2016

Cash and cash equivalents were $276,234,000 as of March 31, 2016, compared to $259,349,000 as of December 31, 2015, an increase of $16,885,000. This increase resulted from (i) $45,376,000 of net cash provided by operating activities partially offset by (ii) $21,304,000 of net cash used in financing activities and (iii) $7,187,000 of net cash used in investing activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $45,376,000 was comprised of net income of $22,019,000, adjustments for non-cash items of $8,930,000 and the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $14,427,000. The adjustments for non-cash items were comprised of depreciation and amortization (including amortization of debt issuance costs) of $8,974,000, partially offset by straight-lining of rental income of $44,000.

Net cash used in investing activities of $7,187,000 was comprised of construction in progress and real estate additions of $8,853,000 primarily related to The Alexander apartment tower, including the payment of a development fee to Vornado of $5,784,000, partially offset by the change in restricted cash of $1,666,000 related to tenant deposits.

Net cash used in financing activities of $21,304,000 was primarily comprised of dividends paid of $20,452,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources – continued

Three Months Ended March 31, 2015

Net cash provided by operating activities of $45,093,000 was comprised of net income of $17,822,000, adjustments for non-cash items of $7,493,000 and the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $19,778,000. The adjustments for non-cash items were comprised of depreciation and amortization of $8,044,000, partially offset by straight-lining of rental income of $551,000.

Net cash used in investing activities of $14,921,000 was primarily comprised of construction in progress and real estate additions of $14,908,000 (primarily The Alexander apartment tower).

Letters of Credit

Approximately $2,074,000 of standby letters of credit were outstanding as of March 31, 2016.

Other

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, real estate impairment losses, 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 flow as a liquidity measure. FFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. A reconciliation of our net income to FFO is provided below.

FFO for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 and 2015

FFO for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was $30,250,000, or $5.92 per diluted share, compared to $25,136,000, or $4.92 per diluted share for the prior year’s quarter.

The following table reconciles our net income to FFO:

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)	2016		2015
Net income	$	22,019	$	17,822

Weighted average shares used in computing FFO per diluted share		5,113,077		5,111,201

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We have exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, which are sensitive to many factors that are beyond our control. Our exposure to a change in interest rates is summarized in the table below.

	$	1,058,751		$	9,125	$	1,059,587

Total effect on diluted earnings per share				$	1.78

As of March 31, 2016 we have an interest rate cap with a notional amount of $300,000,000 that caps LIBOR at a rate of 6.0%.

Fair Value of Debt

The fair value of our consolidated debt is calculated by discounting the future contractual cash flows of these instruments using current risk-adjusted rates available to borrowers with similar credit ratings, which are provided by a third-party specialist. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the estimated fair value of our consolidated debt was $1,044,000,000 and $1,054,000,000, respectively. Our fair value estimates, which are made at the end of the reporting period, may be different from the amounts that may ultimately be realized upon the disposition of our financial instruments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures: Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

(b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting: There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter to which this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are from time to time involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, the outcome of such matters in the aggregate will not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The Additional Option Space is currently being used by Landlord as its management office.

Section 36.2 . Landlord shall institute the procedure described in this Article 36 by giving notice thereof (the " Option Notice ") to Tenant, which Option Notice shall (i) set forth Landlord's calculation of the number of square feet of Rentable Area contained in the Additional Option Space, and (ii) set forth the date that Landlord reasonably expects the Additional Option Space to be vacant and available for Tenant's occupancy (such date designated by Landlord being referred to herein as the " Scheduled Option Space Commencement Date ").

Time shall be of the essence as to the date by which Tenant must give the Response Notice to Landlord to exercise the Option. If Tenant does not give the Response Notice to Landlord on or prior to the thirtieth (30th) day after the date that Landlord gives the Option Notice to Tenant, then, subject to Article 40 hereof, Landlord shall thereafter have the right to lease the Additional Option Space (or any part thereof) to any other party on terms acceptable to Landlord in

Landlord's sole discretion without being required to make any other offer to Tenant regarding the Additional Option Space under this Article 36, except that if Landlord does not lease the Additional Option Space (or any part thereof) to another party (which is not an Affiliate of Landlord) within two (2) years after the date that Landlord gives the applicable Option Notice to Tenant, then Landlord shall not thereafter lease (or permit to be leased) the Additional Option Space to another party without first again complying with the procedure set forth in this Article 36. Tenant shall not have the right to revoke a Response Notice given to Landlord pursuant to this Article 36.

Section 36.4 .

Tenant shall not have the right to exercise the Option if (x) Tenant has theretofore exercised the Renewal Option for the Partial Renewal Space (rather than the entire Premises), and (y) no portion of the Partial Renewal Space is located on the twenty-ninth (29 th ) floor of the Building and, accordingly, from and after the date that Tenant exercises the Renewal Option for such Partial Renewal Space, (I) Landlord shall have no obligation to give an Option Notice to Tenant, and (II) subject to Article 40 hereof, Landlord shall have the right to lease the Additional Option Space (or any portion thereof) to any other party without first offering the Additional Option Space to Tenant as contemplated by this Article 36.

Article 38 hereof. In no event shall the Fixed Rent for the Additional Option Space at any time prior to the Fixed Expiration Date be less than the product obtained by multiplying (a) the number of square feet of Rentable Area of the Additional Option Space, by (b) the net fixed rent amounts calculated on a per square foot basis that are in effect from time to time as shown on Exhibit C-1 attached hereto and made a part hereof. If the Option Term extends beyond the Fixed Expiration Date in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms of Section 36.4 hereof, the Fixed Rent for the Additional Option Space shall be an amount equal to the Fair Market Rent therefor, determined in accordance with Article 38 hereof, provided that in no event shall the Fixed Rent for the Additional Option Space at any time be less than the product obtained by multiplying (1) the number of square feet of Rentable Area of the Additional Option Space, by (2) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Fixed Rent due hereunder for the portion of the Renewal Premises that constitutes Additional Tower Space that is in effect from time to time, by (y) the number of square feet of Rentable Area comprising the portion of the Renewal Premises that constitutes Additional Tower Space at the time the Fixed Rent is being determined for the Additional Option Space. If Tenant exercises the Option to lease Additional Option Space pursuant to the terms hereof, then Landlord shall use Landlord's reasonable efforts to reconfigure (or, at Landlord's option, to permit Tenant to reconfigure) the Building Systems (including, without limitation, the Premises Elevators) to the extent reasonably necessary so that the Shared Building Systems and Premises Systems that serve the Premises (other than the Additional Option Space) integrate with the Shared Building Systems and Premises Systems that serve the Additional Option Space; provided, however, that Landlord shall not have any obligation to so reconfigure (or to permit Tenant to reconfigure) Building Systems to the extent that such reconfiguration has a material and adverse effect on such Building Systems. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any actual out-of-pocket costs that Landlord incurs in so using reasonable efforts to reconfigure the Building Systems, within thirty (30) days after Landlord's request therefor (together with reasonable supporting documentation for such costs). If Tenant exercises the Option to lease the Additional Option Space, then (i) Landlord shall cause the Additional Option Space to be delivered to Tenant in a condition that complies with all applicable Requirements (for unoccupied space) and in broom-clean condition, and (ii) Landlord shall deliver to Tenant (X) a reasonable number of counterparts of Form ACP-5 for the Additional Option Space promptly after the date that Tenant gives to Landlord such documentation and information that Landlord reasonably requires before providing such counterparts of Form ACP-5, and (Y) other reasonable evidence to the effect that Tenant's performance of Alterations in the Additional Option Space will constitute a "non-asbestos project" (as defined for purposes of the aforesaid Form ACP-5); provided, however, that Landlord shall only be required to provide the items described in this clause (ii) to the extent that Tenant reasonably requires such items under applicable Requirements for presentation to applicable Governmental Authorities to permit Tenant to perform Alterations in the Additional Option Space or to conduct Tenant's business therein (the items to be

provided by Landlord under clause (i) and clause (ii) above being collectively referred to herein as the " Applicable Option Space Items ").

Regardless whether Landlord exercises the right set forth above in the Section 43.1, Landlord shall have the right to pledge to its lender(s) or to its (or their) agent, as security for a loan, Landlord's rights to the Letter of Credit and the proceeds thereof.

accrued before or after summary proceedings or other re-entry by Landlord (it being agreed that Landlord, in exercising its right to draw upon the Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms of this Article 43, at its option, may make partial draws on the Letter of Credit from time to time). Landlord shall not be required to so use, apply or retain the whole or any part of the proceeds of the Letter of Credit, but if the whole or any part thereof shall be so used, applied or retained, then Tenant shall, within five (5) days after demand, deliver to Landlord either cash security or a replacement Letter of Credit in an amount such that Landlord shall thereafter have a Letter of Credit or cash security for the entire Letter of Credit Amount on hand at all times during the Term; provided, that if Tenant has delivered cash security (and not a replacement Letter of Credit) in accordance with this sentence, then Tenant shall within fifteen (15) days after the demand referenced above deliver a replacement Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the amount required so that Landlord shall thereafter have a Letter of Credit for the entire Letter of Credit Amount at all times during the Term (it being agreed that Landlord shall turn over to Tenant or its designee such cash security in exchange for such replacement Letter of Credit).

(C) Notwithstanding the terms of Section 43.1(A)(x) and Section 43.2(B), if an Issuing Bank does not meet the requirements for an Issuing Bank set forth in Section 43.1 hereof solely because one or more the ratings of its long-term unsecured debt obligations have been lowered such that that they are no longer at least [redacted] by Fitch and S&P and [redacted] by Moody's, then:

(E) Landlord's presentation of a Letter of Credit as described in Section 43.2(D) shall not relieve Tenant of the obligation to provide a replacement Letter of Credit within the applicable time periods specified herein, and the failure to do so shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder (it being agreed by Landlord that during any such time period, Landlord shall turn over to Tenant or its designee any proceeds drawn under such Letter of Credit and not applied in accordance herewith in exchange for such replacement Letter of Credit).

(F) Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any reasonable costs that Landlord incurs in so presenting the Letter of Credit for payment within thirty (30) days after Landlord submits to Tenant an invoice therefor. Nothing contained in this Article 43 limits Landlord's rights or remedies in equity, at law, or as otherwise set forth herein.

(G) All fees, costs and expenses payable or incurred by Tenant or its affiliates in connection with the Letter of Credit shall be borne by Tenant; provided that if Tenant is required to obtain a replacement Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 43.2(C)(i)(a), then any incremental customary fronting fees payable by Tenant to the Issuing Bank in obtaining such replacement Letter of Credit from the Issuing Bank which Tenant would not have otherwise incurred had it obtained such replacement Letter of Credit from an Issuing Bank described in Section 43.2(C)(i)(b) shall be paid as follows: (i) Tenant shall pay such fronting fees up to [redacted] of the face amount of the replacement Letter of Credit; (ii) Landlord and Tenant shall split equally such fronting fees to the extent the same exceed [redacted], but are less than [redacted], of the face amount of such replacement Letter of Credit and (iii) Landlord shall pay such fronting fees in excess of such [redacted].

as compared to the total cost incurred by Landlord and the other tenants and occupants of the Building to obtain such tax savings. Landlord, at no cost to Landlord, shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant in Tenant's efforts to obtain rebates or discounts for electricity from the utility company or other reputable provider by virtue of Tenant's installation in the Additional Space of energy-saving fixtures or equipment. Tenant shall receive (either by payment from Landlord to Tenant or by virtue of a discernible credit shown on an invoice or invoices received by Landlord from the utility company or other reputable provider) any rebates or discounts granted by the utility company or other reputable provider by virtue of Tenant's installation in the Additional Space of any such energy-saving fixtures or equipment.

(B) Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, with respect to a particular period, an amount (the " Electricity Additional Rent ") equal to one hundred three percent (103%) of the charge imposed by the utility company or other reputable provider for the Base Electrical Capacity (including, without limitation, energy charges, demand charges, all applicable surcharges, time-of-day charges, fuel adjustment charges, rate adjustment charges, taxes and any other factors used by the utility company in computing its charges to Landlord) actually utilized by Tenant with the understanding that the Electricity Additional Rent shall be calculated based on meter readings.

(C) Landlord shall give Tenant an invoice for the Electricity Additional Rent on a monthly basis, which invoice shall have annexed thereto a copy of the applicable invoice from the utility company or other reputable provider and the calculation of the aggregate amount set forth on such invoice. Tenant shall pay the Electricity Additional Rent to Landlord on or prior to the thirtieth (30th) day after the date that Landlord gives to Tenant each such invoice.

Tenant shall not have the right to object to Landlord's calculation of the Electricity Additional Rent unless Tenant gives Landlord notice of any such objection on or prior to the sixtieth (60th) day after the date that Landlord gives Tenant the applicable invoice for the Electricity Additional Rent.
