As a result, Vornado now conducts its business through the Operating Partnership. Vornado is the sole general partner of, and owned approximately 86% of the limited partnership common interest in, the Operating Partnership at March 1, 2000.

("Alexander's"), which has eight properties in the New York City metropolitan area; (vii) the Hotel Pennsylvania in New York City contains approximately 800,000 square feet of space with 1,700 rooms and approximately 400,000 square feet of retail and office space; (viii) approximately 30% interest in the Newkirk joint ventures which own various equity and debt interests relating to 120 limited partnerships which own real estate, primarily office and retail, net leased to credit rated tenants; (ix) eight dry warehouse/industrial properties in New Jersey containing approximately 2.0 million square feet; and (x) other real estate investments. -3- Objectives and Strategy The Company's business objective is to maximize shareholder value.
