On January 15, 2015, we completed the spin-off of substantially all of our retail segment comprised of 79 strip shopping centers, three malls, a warehouse park and $225 million of cash to Urban Edge Properties (“UE”) (NYSE: UE).  As part of this transaction, we received 5,717,184 UE operating partnership units (5.4% ownership interest).

OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGY
Our business objective is to maximize Vornado shareholder value. We intend to achieve this objective by continuing to pursue our investment philosophy and execute our operating strategies through:
 
·      Maintaining a superior team of operating and investment professionals and an entrepreneurial spirit
·      Investing in properties in select markets, such as New York City and Washington, DC, where we believe there is a high likelihood of capital appreciation
·      Acquiring quality properties at a discount to replacement cost and where there is a significant potential for higher rents
·      Investing in retail properties in select under-stored locations such as the New York City metropolitan area
·      Developing and redeveloping our existing properties to increase returns and maximize value
·          Investing in operating companies that have a significant real estate component
 
We expect to finance our growth, acquisitions and investments using internally generated funds, proceeds from asset sales and by accessing the public and private capital markets.  We may also offer partnership units in exchange for property and may repurchase or otherwise reacquire these units or any other securities of ours in the future.

DEVELOPMENT AND REDEVELOPMENT EXPENDITURES
 
We are constructing a residential condominium tower containing 392,000 salable square feet on our 220 Central Park South development site.  The incremental development cost of this project is approximately $1.3 billion, of which $293 million has been expended as of December 31, 2015.
 
We are developing The Bartlett, a 699-unit residential project in Pentagon City, which is expected to be completed in 2016.  The project includes a 40,000 square foot Whole Foods Market at the base of the building.  The incremental development cost of this project is approximately $250 million, of which $166 million has been expended as of December 31, 2015.
 
On June 24, 2015, we entered into a joint venture, in which we own a 55% interest, to develop a 173,000 square foot Class-A office building, located along the western edge of the High Line at 512 West 22nd Street in the West Chelsea submarket of Manhattan.  The development cost of this project is approximately $235 million.  On November 24, 2015, the joint venture obtained a $126 million construction loan.  The loan matures in November 2019 with two six-month extension options.  The interest rate is LIBOR plus 2.65% (3.07% at December 31, 2015).  As of December 31, 2015, the outstanding balance of the loan was $44.1 million, of which $24.2 million is our share.   
 
On July 23, 2014, a joint venture in which we are a 50.1% partner entered into a 99-year ground lease for 61 Ninth Avenue located on the Southwest corner of Ninth Avenue and 15th Street in the West Chelsea submarket of Manhattan.  The venture’s current plans are to construct an office building, with retail at the base, of approximately 167,000 square feet.  Total development costs are currently estimated to be approximately $150 million.
 
We plan to demolish two adjacent Washington, DC office properties, 1726 M Street and 1150 17th Street in the first half of 2016 and replace them in the future with a new 335,000 square foot Class A office building, to be addressed 1700 M Street.  The incremental development cost of the project is approximately $170 million.
 
We are also evaluating other development and redevelopment opportunities at certain of our properties in Manhattan, including the Penn Plaza District, and in Washington, including Crystal City, Rosslyn and Pentagon City.
 
There can be no assurance that any of our development or redevelopment projects will commence, or if commenced, be completed, or completed on schedule or within budget.

SEGMENT DATA
 
We operate in the following business segments: New York and Washington, DC.  Financial information related to these business segments for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 is set forth in Note 24 – Segment Information to our consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

SEASONALITY
 
Our revenues and expenses are subject to seasonality during the year which impacts quarterly net earnings and cash flows and therefore impacts comparisons of the current quarter to the previous quarter.  The New York and Washington, DC segments have historically experienced higher utility costs in the first and third quarters of the year.

TENANTS ACCOUNTING FOR OVER 10% OF REVENUES
 
None of our tenants accounted for more than 10% of total revenues in any of the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 .
 
CERTAIN ACTIVITIES
 
We do not base our acquisitions and investments on specific allocations by type of property. We have historically held our properties for long‑term investment; however, it is possible that properties in our portfolio may be sold when circumstances warrant. Further, we have not adopted a policy that limits the amount or percentage of assets which could be invested in a specific property or property type. While Vornado may seek the vote of its shareholders in connection with any particular material transaction, generally our activities are reviewed and may be modified from time to time by Vornado’s Board of Trustees without the vote of Vornado’s shareholders or our unitholders.

EMPLOYEES
 
As of December 31, 2015, we have approximately 4,089 employees, of which 298 are corporate staff. The New York segment has 3,242 employees, including 2,566 employees of Building Maintenance Services LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary, which provides cleaning, security and engineering services primarily to our New York and Washington, DC properties and 487 employees at the Hotel Pennsylvania. The Washington, DC segment and theMart properties have 462 and 87 employees, respectively.  The foregoing does not include employees of partially owned entities.

PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES
 
Our principal executive offices are located at 888 Seventh Avenue, New York, New York 10019; telephone (212) 894‑7000.

ITEM 1A.     RISK FACTORS
Material factors that may adversely affect our business, operations and financial condition are summarized below.  The risks and uncertainties described herein may not be the only ones we face.  Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business.  See “Forward-Looking Statements” contained herein on page 4.
 
REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS’ VALUE AND INCOME FLUCTUATE DUE TO VARIOUS FACTORS.
The value of real estate fluctuates depending on conditions in the general economy and the real estate business. These conditions may also adversely impact our revenues and cash flows.
 
The factors that affect the value of our real estate investments include, among other things:
·      global, national, regional and local economic conditions;
·      competition from other available space;
·      local conditions such as an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for real estate in the area;
·      how well we manage our properties;
·          the development and/or redevelopment of our properties;
·      changes in market rental rates;
·      the timing and costs associated with property improvements and rentals;
·      whether we are able to pass all or portions of any increases in operating costs through to tenants;
·      changes in real estate taxes and other expenses;  
·      whether tenants and users such as customers and shoppers consider a property attractive;
·          changes in space utilization by our tenants due to technology, economic conditions and business environment;
·      the financial condition of our tenants, including the extent of tenant bankruptcies or defaults;
·      availability of financing on acceptable terms or at all;
·          inflation or deflation;
·      fluctuations in interest rates;
·      our ability to obtain adequate insurance;
·      changes in zoning laws and taxation;
·      government regulation;
·      consequences of any armed conflict involving, or terrorist attacks against, the United States or individual acts of violence in public spaces including retail centers;
·      potential liability under environmental or other laws or regulations;
·          natural disasters;
·      general competitive factors; and
·          climate changes.
 
The rents or sales proceeds we receive and the occupancy levels at our properties may decline as a result of adverse changes in any of these factors. If rental revenues, sales proceeds and/or occupancy levels decline, we generally would expect to have less cash available to pay indebtedness and for distribution to unitholders. In addition, some of our major expenses, including mortgage payments, real estate taxes and maintenance costs generally do not decline when the related rents decline.
 
Capital markets and economic conditions can materially affect our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations as well as the value of our debt and equity securities.
There are many factors that can affect the value of our debt and equity securities, including the state of the capital markets and the economy.  Demand for office and retail space may decline nationwide, as it did in 2008 and 2009 due to the economic downturn, bankruptcies, downsizing, layoffs and cost cutting.  Government action or inaction may adversely affect the state of the capital markets.  The cost and availability of credit may be adversely affected by illiquid credit markets and wider credit spreads, which may adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition, including our results of operations, and the liquidity and financial condition of our tenants.  Our inability or the inability of our tenants to timely refinance maturing liabilities and access the capital markets to meet liquidity needs may materially affect our financial condition and results of operations and the value of our debt and equity securities.
 
9

 
Real estate is a competitive business.
We compete with a large number of real estate property owners and developers, some of which may be willing to accept lower returns on their investments. Principal factors of competition are rents charged, sales prices, attractiveness of location, the quality of the property and the breadth and the quality of services provided. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends of the global, national, regional and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants and customers, availability and cost of capital, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations, legislation, population and employment trends.
 
We depend on leasing space to tenants on economically favorable terms and collecting rent from tenants who may not be able to pay.
Our financial results depend significantly on leasing space in our properties to tenants on economically favorable terms. In addition, because a majority of our income comes from renting of real property, our income, funds available to pay indebtedness and funds available for distribution to unitholders will decrease if a significant number of our tenants cannot pay their rent or if we are not able to maintain occupancy levels on favorable terms. If a tenant does not pay its rent, we may not be able to enforce our rights as landlord without delays and may incur substantial legal costs.  During periods of economic adversity, there may be an increase in the number of tenants that cannot pay their rent and an increase in vacancy rates.
 
We may be unable to renew leases or relet space as leases expire.
When our tenants decide not to renew their leases upon their expiration, we may not be able to relet the space. Even if tenants do renew or we can relet the space, the terms of renewal or reletting, taking into account among other things, the cost of improvements to the property and leasing commissions, may be less favorable than the terms in the expired leases. In addition, changes in space utilization by our tenants may impact our ability to renew or relet space without the need to incur substantial costs in renovating or redesigning the internal configuration of the relevant property. If we are unable to promptly renew the leases or relet the space at similar rates or if we incur substantial costs in renewing or reletting the space, our cash flow and ability to service debt obligations and pay distributions to security holders could be adversely affected.
 
Bankruptcy or insolvency of tenants may decrease our revenue, net income and available cash.
From time to time, some of our tenants have declared bankruptcy, and other tenants may declare bankruptcy or become insolvent in the future. The bankruptcy or insolvency of a major tenant could cause us to suffer lower revenues and operational difficulties, including leasing the remainder of the property. As a result, the bankruptcy or insolvency of a major tenant could result in decreased revenue, net income and funds available to pay our indebtedness or make distributions to unitholders. 
 
We may incur significant costs to comply with environmental laws and environmental contamination may impair our ability to lease and/or sell real estate.
Our operations and properties are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations concerning the protection of the environment, including air and water quality, hazardous or toxic substances and health and safety. Under some environmental laws, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances released at a property. The owner or operator may also be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage or personal injuries and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred by those parties because of the contamination. These laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of the release of the substances or caused the release. The presence of contamination or the failure to remediate contamination may impair our ability to sell or lease real estate or to borrow using the real estate as collateral. Other laws and regulations govern indoor and outdoor air quality including those that can require the abatement or removal of asbestos-containing materials in the event of damage, demolition, renovation or remodeling and also govern emissions of and exposure to asbestos fibers in the air. The maintenance and removal of lead paint and certain electrical equipment containing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are also regulated by federal and state laws. We are also subject to risks associated with human exposure to chemical or biological contaminants such as molds, pollens, viruses and bacteria which, above certain levels, can be alleged to be connected to allergic or other health effects and symptoms in susceptible individuals. Our predecessor companies may be subject to similar liabilities for activities of those companies in the past.  We could incur fines for environmental compliance and be held liable for the costs of remedial action with respect to the foregoing regulated substances or related claims arising out of environmental contamination or human exposure to contamination at or from our properties.
10

 
  
Each of our properties has been subject to varying degrees of environmental assessment. To date, these environmental assessments have not revealed any environmental condition material to our business. However, identification of new compliance concerns or undiscovered areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, human exposure to contamination or changes in clean-up or compliance requirements could result in significant costs to us.
 
In addition, we may become subject to costs or taxes, or increases therein, associated with natural resource or energy usage (such as a “carbon tax”).  These costs or taxes could increase our operating costs and decrease the cash available to pay our obligations or distribute to equity holders.
 
We face risks associated with our tenants being designated “Prohibited Persons” by the Office of Foreign Assets Control and similar requirements. 
Pursuant to Executive Order 13224 and other laws, the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”) maintains a list of persons designated as terrorists or who are otherwise blocked or banned (“Prohibited Persons”) from conducting business or engaging in transactions in the United States and thereby restricts our doing business with such persons.  We are required to comply with OFAC and related requirements and may be required to terminate or otherwise amend our leases, loans and other agreements.  If a tenant or other party with whom we conduct business is placed on the OFAC list or is otherwise a party with which we are prohibited from doing business, we may be required to terminate the lease or other agreement.  Any such termination could result in a loss of revenue or otherwise negatively affect our financial results and cash flows.
 
Our business and operations would suffer in the event of system failures. 
Despite system redundancy, the implementation of security measures and the existence of a disaster recovery plan for our internal information technology systems, our systems are vulnerable to damages from any number of sources, including computer viruses, unauthorized access, energy blackouts, natural disasters, terrorism, war and telecommunication failures.  Any system failure or accident that causes interruptions in our operations could result in a material disruption to our business.  We may also incur additional costs to remedy damages caused by such disruptions.
 
The occurrence of cyber incidents, or a deficiency in our cyber security, could negatively impact our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information, and/or damage to our business relationships or reputation, all of which could negatively impact our financial results.
We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber attacks or cyber intrusions over the Internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e-mails, persons who access our systems from inside or outside our organization, and other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber attack or cyber intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Our IT networks and related systems are essential to the operation of our business and our ability to perform day-to-day operations (including managing our building systems) and, in some cases, may be critical to the operations of certain of our tenants. Although we make efforts to maintain the security and integrity of these types of IT networks and related systems, and we have implemented various measures to manage the risk of a security breach or disruption, there can be no assurance that our security efforts and measures will be effective or that attempted security breaches or disruptions would not be successful or damaging. Even the most well protected information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable because the techniques used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, and in some cases are designed to not be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. Accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, and thus it is impossible for us to entirely mitigate this risk.
 
A security breach or other significant disruption involving our IT networks and related systems could disrupt the proper functioning of our networks and systems and therefore our operations and/or those of certain of our tenants; result in the unauthorized access to, and destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of, proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which others could use to compete against us or which could expose us to damage claims by third-parties for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes and outcomes; result in our inability to maintain the building systems relied upon by our tenants for the efficient use of their leased space; require significant management attention and resources to remedy any damages that result; subject us to claims for breach of contract, damages, credits, penalties or termination of leases or other agreements; or damage our reputation among our tenants and investors generally. Any or all of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Some of our potential losses may not be covered by 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 with limits of $2.0 billion per occurrence, with sub-limits for certain perils such as flood and earthquake. Our California properties have earthquake insurance with coverage of $180,000,000 per occurrence and in the annual aggregate, subject to a deductible in the amount of 5% of the value of the affected property. We maintain coverage for terrorism acts with limits of $4.0 billion per occurrence and in the aggregate, and $2.0 billion per occurrence and in the aggregate for terrorism involving nuclear, biological, chemical and radiological (“NBCR”) terrorism events, as defined by Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015, which expires in December 2020.
 
Penn Plaza Insurance Company, LLC (“PPIC”), our wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, acts as a re-insurer with respect to a portion of all risk property and rental value insurance and a portion of our earthquake insurance coverage, and as a direct insurer for coverage for acts of terrorism including NBCR acts. Coverage for acts of terrorism (excluding NBCR acts) is fully reinsured by third party insurance companies and the Federal government with no exposure to PPIC. For NBCR acts, PPIC is responsible for a deductible of $3,200,000 ($2,400,000 effective January 1, 2016) per occurrence and 15% of the balance of a covered loss (16% effective January 1, 2016) and the Federal government is responsible for the remaining 85% of a covered loss (84% effective January 1, 2016). We are ultimately responsible for any loss incurred by PPIC.
 
We continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism.  However, we cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future.
 
Our debt instruments, consisting of mortgage loans secured by our properties which are non-recourse to us, senior unsecured notes and revolving credit agreements contain customary covenants requiring us to maintain insurance. Although we believe that we have adequate insurance coverage for purposes of these agreements, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. Further, if lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain it could adversely affect our ability to finance our properties and expand our portfolio.
 
Compliance or failure to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act or other safety regulations and requirements could result in substantial costs. 
The Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) generally requires that public buildings, including our properties, meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons.  Noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines by the federal government or the award of damages to private litigants and/or legal fees to their counsel.  From time to time persons have asserted claims against us with respect to some of our properties under the ADA, but to date such claims have not resulted in any material expense or liability.  If, under the ADA, we are required to make substantial alterations and capital expenditures in one or more of our properties, including the removal of access barriers, it could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, as well as the amount of cash available for distribution to unitholders.
 
Our properties are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as state and local fire and life safety requirements.  If we fail to comply with these requirements, we could incur fines or private damage awards.  We do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether compliance with future requirements will require significant unanticipated expenditures that will affect our cash flow and results of operations.

OUR INVESTMENTS ARE CONCENTRATED IN THE NEW YORK CITY METROPOLITAN AREA AND WASHINGTON, DC / NORTHERN VIRGINIA AREA. CIRCUMSTANCES AFFECTING THESE AREAS GENERALLY COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.
 
A significant portion of our properties are located in the New York City / New Jersey metropolitan area and Washington, DC / Northern Virginia area and are affected by the economic cycles and risks inherent to those areas.
In 2015, approximately 92% of our EBITDA, excluding items that affect comparability, came from properties located in the New York City metropolitan area and the Washington, DC / Northern Virginia area.  We may continue to concentrate a significant portion of our future acquisitions in these areas or in other geographic real estate markets in the United States or abroad.  Real estate markets are subject to economic downturns and we cannot predict how economic conditions will impact these markets in either the short or long term. Declines in the economy or declines in real estate markets in these areas could hurt our financial performance and the value of our properties.  In addition to the factors affecting the national economic condition generally, the factors affecting economic conditions in these regions include:
·      financial performance and productivity of the media, advertising, financial, technology, retail, insurance and real estate industries;
·      space needs of, and budgetary constraints affecting, the United States Government, including the effect of a deficit reduction plan and/or base closures and repositioning under the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act of 2005, as amended;
·      business layoffs or downsizing;
·      industry slowdowns;
·      relocations of businesses;
·      changing demographics;
·      increased telecommuting and use of alternative work places;
·      infrastructure quality; and
·      any oversupply of, or reduced demand for, real estate.
 
It is impossible for us to assess the future effects of trends in the economic and investment climates of the geographic areas in which we concentrate, and more generally of the United States, or the real estate markets in these areas.  Local, national or global economic downturns, would negatively affect our businesses and profitability.
 
Terrorist attacks, such as those of September 11, 2001 in New York City and the Washington, DC area, may adversely affect the value of our properties and our ability to generate cash flow.
We have significant investments in large metropolitan areas, including the New York, Washington, DC, Chicago and San Francisco metropolitan areas. In response to a terrorist attack or the perceived threat of terrorism, tenants in these areas may choose to relocate their businesses to less populated, lower-profile areas of the United States that may be perceived to be less likely targets of future terrorist activity and fewer customers may choose to patronize businesses in these areas. This, in turn, would trigger a decrease in the demand for space in these areas, which could increase vacancies in our properties and force us to lease space on less favorable terms. As a result, the value of our properties and the level of our revenues and cash flows could decline materially.
 
Natural disasters and the effects of climate change could have a concentrated impact on the areas where we operate and could adversely impact our results.
Our investments are concentrated in the New York, Washington, DC, Chicago and San Francisco metropolitan areas.  Natural disasters, including earthquakes, storms and hurricanes, could impact our properties in these and other areas in which we operate.  Potentially adverse consequences of “global warming” could similarly have an impact on our properties.  As a result, we could become subject to significant losses and/or repair costs that may or may not be fully covered by insurance and to the risk of business interruption.  The incurrence of these losses, costs or business interruptions may adversely affect our operating and financial results.

WE MAY ACQUIRE OR SELL ASSETS OR ENTITIES OR DEVELOP PROPERTIES. OUR FAILURE OR INABILITY TO CONSUMMATE THESE TRANSACTIONS OR MANAGE THE RESULTS OF THESE TRANSACTIONS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL RESULTS.
We may acquire, develop or redevelop real estate and acquire related companies and this may create risks.
We may acquire, develop or redevelop properties or acquire real estate related companies when we believe doing so is consistent with our business strategy. We may not succeed in (i) developing, redeveloping or acquiring real estate and real estate related companies; (ii) completing these activities on time or within budget; and (iii) leasing or selling developed, redeveloped or acquired properties at amounts sufficient to cover our costs.  Competition in these activities could also significantly increase our costs. Difficulties in integrating acquisitions may prove costly or time-consuming and could divert management’s attention. Acquisitions or developments in new markets or industries where we do not have the same level of market knowledge may result in weaker than anticipated performance. We may also abandon acquisition or development opportunities that we have begun pursuing and consequently fail to recover expenses already incurred.  Furthermore, we may be exposed to the liabilities of properties or companies acquired, some of which we may not be aware of at the time of acquisition.  
 
From time to time we have made, and in the future we may seek to make, one or more material acquisitions.  The announcement of such a material acquisition may result in a rapid and significant decline in the price of Vornado’s common shares and the value of our Class A units.
 
We are continuously looking at material transactions that we believe will maximize Vornado shareholder value.  However, an announcement by Vornado of one or more significant acquisitions could result in a quick and significant decline in the price of Vornado’s common shares and the value of our Class A units. 
 
It may be difficult to buy and sell real estate quickly, which may limit our flexibility.
Real estate investments are relatively difficult to buy and sell quickly. Consequently, we may have limited ability to vary our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions.
 
We may not be permitted to dispose of certain properties or pay down the debt associated with those properties when we might otherwise desire to do so without incurring additional costs.  In addition, when we dispose of or sell assets, we may not be able to reinvest the sales proceeds and earn similar returns.
As part of an acquisition of a property, or a portfolio of properties, we may agree, and in the past have agreed, not to dispose of the acquired properties or reduce the mortgage indebtedness for a long-term period, unless we pay certain of the resulting tax costs of the seller. These agreements could result in us holding on to properties that we would otherwise sell and not pay down or refinance.  In addition, when we dispose of or sell assets, we may not be able to reinvest the sales proceeds and earn returns similar to those generated by the assets that were sold.
 
From time to time we have made, and in the future we may seek to make, investments in companies over which we do not have sole control. Some of these companies operate in industries with different risks than investing and operating real estate.
From time to time we have made, and in the future we may seek to make, investments in companies that we may not control, including, but not limited to, Alexander’s, Inc. (“Alexander’s”), Toys “R” Us, Inc. (“Toys”), Lexington Realty Trust (“Lexington”), Urban Edge Properties (“UE”), Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust (“PREIT”), and other equity and loan investments. Although these businesses generally have a significant real estate component, some of them operate in businesses that are different from investing and operating real estate, including operating or managing toy stores. Consequently, we are subject to operating and financial risks of those industries and to the risks associated with lack of control, such as having differing objectives than our partners or the entities in which we invest, or becoming involved in disputes, or competing directly or indirectly with these partners or entities.  In addition, we rely on the internal controls and financial reporting controls of these entities and their failure to maintain effectiveness or comply with applicable standards may adversely affect us.
 
We are subject to risks that affect the general and New York City retail environments.
Certain of our properties are Manhattan street retail properties.  As such, these properties are affected by the general and New York City retail environments, including the level of consumer spending and consumer confidence, the threat of terrorism and increasing competition from retailers, outlet malls, retail websites and catalog companies.  These factors could adversely affect the financial condition of our retail tenants and the willingness of retailers to lease space in our retail locations, and in turn, adversely affect us.
 
14

 
Our investment in Toys has in the past and may in the future result in increased seasonality and volatility in our reported earnings.
We carry our Toys investment at zero.  As a result, we no longer record our equity in Toys' income or loss.   Because Toys is a retailer, its operations subject us to the risks of a retail company that are different than those presented by our other lines of business. The business of Toys is highly seasonal and substantially all of Toys net income is generated in its fourth quarter.  It is possible that the value of Toys may increase and we could again resume recording our equity in Toys' income or loss, which would increase the seasonality and volatility of our reported earnings.
 
Our decision to dispose of real estate assets would change the holding period assumption in our valuation analyses, which could result in material impairment losses and adversely affect our financial results.
 We evaluate real estate assets for impairment based on the projected cash flow of the asset over our anticipated holding period.  If we change our intended holding period, due to our intention to sell or otherwise dispose of an asset, then under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, we must reevaluate whether that asset is impaired.  Depending on the carrying value of the property at the time we change our intention and the amount that we estimate we would receive on disposal, we may record an impairment loss that would adversely affect our financial results. This loss could be material to our results of operations in the period that it is recognized.
 
We invest in marketable equity securities.  The value of these investments may decline as a result of operating performance or economic or market conditions. 
We invest in marketable equity securities of publicly-traded companies, such as Lexington Realty Trust.  As of December 31, 2015, our marketable securities have an aggregate carrying amount of $150,997,000, at market.  Significant declines in the value of these investments due to, among other reasons, operating performance or economic or market conditions, may result in the recognition of impairment losses which could be material.  
 
VORNADO’S ORGANIZATIONAL AND FINANCIAL STRUCTURE GIVES RISE TO OPERATIONAL AND FINANCIAL RISKS.
We may not be able to obtain capital to make investments.
We depend primarily on external financing to fund the growth of our business. This is because one of the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for a REIT, like Vornado, is that it distributes 90% of its taxable income, excluding net capital gains, to its shareholders.  This, in turn, requires us to make distributions to our unitholders.  There is a separate requirement to distribute net capital gains or pay a corporate level tax in lieu thereof. Our access to debt or equity financing depends on the willingness of third parties to lend or make equity investments and on conditions in the capital markets generally. Although we believe that we will be able to finance any investments we may wish to make in the foreseeable future, there can be no assurance that new financing will be available or available on acceptable terms.  For information about our available sources of funds, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources” and the notes to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
We depend on dividends and distributions from our direct and indirect subsidiaries. The creditors and preferred security holders of these subsidiaries are entitled to amounts payable to them by the subsidiaries before the subsidiaries may pay any dividends or distributions to us.
Our cash flow is dependent on cash distributions to us by our subsidiaries. The creditors of each of our direct and indirect subsidiaries are entitled to payment of that subsidiary’s obligations to them, when due and payable, before distributions may be made by that subsidiary to its equity holders. Thus, our ability to make distributions to holders of our units depends on our subsidiaries’ ability first to satisfy their obligations to their creditors and then to make distributions to us.
 
Furthermore, the holders of our preferred units are entitled to receive preferred distributions before payment of distributions to our Class A unitholders. In addition, our participation in any distribution of the assets of any of our direct or indirect subsidiaries upon the liquidation, reorganization or insolvency, is only after the claims of the creditors, including trade creditors and preferred security holders, are satisfied.

We have a substantial amount of indebtedness that could affect our future operations.
As of December 31, 2015, our consolidated mortgages and unsecured indebtedness, excluding related premium, discount and deferred financing costs, net, totaled $11.2 billion. We are subject to the risks normally associated with debt financing, including the risk that our cash flow from operations will be insufficient to meet required debt service. Our debt service costs generally will not be reduced if developments at the property, such as the entry of new competitors or the loss of major tenants, cause a reduction in the income from the property. Should such events occur, our operations may be adversely affected. If a property is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness and income from such property is insufficient to pay that indebtedness, the property could be foreclosed upon by the mortgagee resulting in a loss of income and a decline in our total asset value.
 
We have outstanding debt, and the amount of debt and its cost may increase and refinancing may not be available on acceptable terms.
We rely on both secured and unsecured, variable rate and non-variable rate debt to finance acquisitions and development activities and for working capital. If we are unable to obtain debt financing or refinance existing indebtedness upon maturity, our financial condition and results of operations would likely be adversely affected.  In addition, the cost of our existing debt may increase, especially in the case of a rising interest rate environment, and we may not be able to refinance our existing debt in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms.  If the cost or amount of our indebtedness increases or we cannot refinance our debt in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms, we are at risk of credit ratings downgrades and default on our obligations that could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
  
Covenants in our debt instruments could adversely affect our financial condition and our acquisitions and development activities.
The mortgages on our properties contain customary covenants such as those that limit our ability, without the prior consent of the lender, to further mortgage the applicable property or to discontinue insurance coverage. Our unsecured indebtedness and debt that we may obtain in the future may contain customary restrictions, requirements and other limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness, including covenants that limit our ability to incur debt based upon the level of our ratio of total debt to total assets, our ratio of secured debt to total assets, our ratio of EBITDA to interest expense, and fixed charges, and that require us to maintain a certain level of unencumbered assets to unsecured debt. Our ability to borrow is subject to compliance with these and other covenants. In addition, failure to comply with our covenants could cause a default under the applicable debt instrument, and we may then be required to repay such debt with capital from other sources or give possession of a secured property to the lender. Under those circumstances, other sources of capital may not be available to us, or may be available only on unattractive terms.
 
A downgrade in our credit ratings could materially adversely affect our business and financial condition.
Our credit rating and the credit ratings assigned to our debt securities and our preferred shares could change based upon, among other things, our results of operations and financial condition. These ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by credit rating agencies, and any rating could be changed or withdrawn by a rating agency in the future if, in its judgment, circumstances warrant such action. Moreover, these credit ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold our common shares or any other securities. If any of the credit rating agencies that have rated our securities downgrades or lowers its credit rating, or if any credit rating agency indicates that it has placed any such rating on a “watch list” for a possible downgrading or lowering, or otherwise indicates that its outlook for that rating is negative, such action could have a material adverse effect on our costs and availability of funding, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the trading price of Vornado’s securities, the redemption price of our units and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay distributions to our security holders.

Vornado may fail to qualify or remain qualified as a REIT and may be required to pay income taxes at corporate rates.
Although we believe that Vornado will remain organized and will continue to operate so as to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, Vornado may fail to remain so qualified. Qualifications are governed by highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations and depend on various facts and circumstances that are not entirely within our control. In addition, legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions may significantly change the relevant tax laws and/or the federal income tax consequences of qualifying as a REIT. If, with respect to any taxable year, Vornado fails to maintain its qualification as a REIT and does not qualify under statutory relief provisions, Vornado could not deduct distributions to its shareholders in computing its taxable income and would have to pay federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates. The federal income tax payable would include any applicable alternative minimum tax. If Vornado had to pay federal income tax, the amount of money available to distribute to its shareholders and to our unitholders and to pay its indebtedness would be reduced for the year or years involved, and Vornado would not be required to make distributions to its shareholders in that taxable year and in future years until it was able to qualify as a REIT.  In addition, Vornado would also be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost, unless Vornado was entitled to relief under the relevant statutory provisions.
 
We face possible adverse changes in tax laws, which may result in an increase in our tax liability.
From time to time changes in state and local tax laws or regulations are enacted, which may result in an increase in our tax liability. The shortfall in tax revenues for states and municipalities in recent years may lead to an increase in the frequency and size of such changes. If such changes occur, we may be required to pay additional taxes on our assets or income. These increased tax costs could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and the amount of cash available for payment of distributions.
 
Loss of Vornado’s key personnel could harm our operations and adversely affect the value of Vornado’s common shares and our Class A units.
We are dependent on the efforts of Steven Roth, the Chairman of Vornado’s Board of Trustees and its Chief Executive Officer.  While we believe that we could find a replacement for him and other key personnel, the loss of their services could harm our operations and adversely affect the value of Vornado’s common shares and our Class A units.
 
VORNADO’S CHARTER DOCUMENTS AND APPLICABLE LAW MAY HINDER ANY ATTEMPT TO ACQUIRE IT OR US BECAUSE VORNADO IS OUR SOLE GENERAL PARTNER.
Vornado’s Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust (the “declaration of trust”) sets limits on the ownership of Vornado’s shares.
Generally, for Vornado to maintain its qualification as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, not more than 50% in value of the outstanding shares of beneficial interest of Vornado may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals at any time during the last half of Vornado’s taxable year. The Internal Revenue Code defines “individuals” for purposes of the requirement described in the preceding sentence to include some types of entities. Under Vornado’s declaration of trust, as amended, no person may own more than 6.7% of the outstanding common shares of any class, or 9.9% of the outstanding preferred shares of any class, with some exceptions for persons who held common shares in excess of the 6.7% limit before Vornado adopted the limit and other persons approved by Vornado’s Board of Trustees. These restrictions on transferability and ownership may delay, deter or prevent a change in control of Vornado or other transaction that might involve a premium price or otherwise be in the best interest of Vornado’s shareholders or our unitholders.
 
The Maryland General Corporation Law (the “MGCL”) contains provisions that may reduce the likelihood of certain takeover transactions.
 
The MGCL imposes conditions and restrictions on certain “business combinations” (including, among other transactions, a merger, consolidation, share exchange, or, in certain circumstances, an asset transfer or issuance of equity securities) between a Maryland REIT and certain persons who beneficially own at least 10% of the corporation’s stock (an “interested shareholder”). Unless approved in advance by the board of trustees of the trust, or otherwise exempted by the statute, such a business combination is prohibited for a period of five years after the most recent date on which the interested shareholder became an interested shareholder.  After such five-year period, a business combination with an interested shareholder must be: (a) recommended by the board of trustees of the trust, and (b) approved by the affirmative vote of at least (i) 80% of the trust’s outstanding shares entitled to vote and (ii) two-thirds of the trust’s outstanding shares entitled to vote which are not held by the interested shareholder with whom the business combination is to be effected, unless, among other things, the trust’s common shareholders receive a “fair price” (as defined by the statute) for their shares and the consideration is received in cash or in the same form as previously paid by the interested shareholder for his or her shares.
 
17

 
  
In approving a transaction, Vornado’s Board may provide that its approval is subject to compliance, at or after the time of approval, with any terms and conditions determined by the Board.  Vornado’s Board has adopted a resolution exempting any business combination between Vornado and any trustee or officer of Vornado or its affiliates.  As a result, any trustee or officer of Vornado or its affiliates may be able to enter into business combinations with Vornado that may not be in the best interest of Vornado’s shareholders or our unitholders. With respect to business combinations with other persons, the business combination provisions of the MGCL may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of Vornado or other transaction that might involve a premium price or otherwise be in the best interest of Vornado’s shareholders or our unitholders. The business combination statute may discourage others from trying to acquire control of Vornado and increase the difficulty of consummating any offer.
 
Vornado has a classified Board of Trustees and that may reduce the likelihood of certain takeover transactions.
Vornado’s Board of Trustees is divided into three classes of trustees. Trustees of each class are chosen for three-year staggered terms. Staggered terms of trustees may reduce the possibility of a tender offer or an attempt to change control of Vornado, even though a tender offer or change in control might be in the best interest of Vornado’s shareholders or our unitholders.
 
Vornado may issue additional shares in a manner that could adversely affect the likelihood of certain takeover transactions.
 
Vornado’s declaration of trust authorizes its Board of Trustees to:
·      cause Vornado to issue additional authorized but unissued common shares or preferred shares;
·      classify or reclassify, in one or more series, any unissued preferred shares;
·      set the preferences, rights and other terms of any classified or reclassified shares that Vornado issues; and
·      increase, without Vornado’s shareholder approval, the number of shares of beneficial interest that Vornado may issue.
 
Vornado’s Board of Trustees could establish a series of preferred shares whose terms could delay, deter or prevent a change in control of Vornado, and therefore of us, or other transaction that might involve a premium price or otherwise be in the best interest of Vornado’s shareholders or our unitholders, although Vornado’s Board of Trustees does not now intend to establish a series of preferred shares of this kind. Vornado’s declaration of trust and bylaws contain other provisions that may delay, deter or prevent a change in control of Vornado or other transaction that might involve a premium price or otherwise be in the best interest of Vornado’s shareholders or our unitholders.
 
We may change our policies without obtaining the approval of our unitholders.
Our operating and financial policies, including our policies with respect to acquisitions of real estate or other companies, growth, operations, indebtedness, capitalization and distributions, are exclusively determined by Vornado’s Board of Trustees. Accordingly, our unitholders do not control these policies.
 
OUR OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE AND RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS MAY GIVE RISE TO CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.
Steven Roth and Interstate Properties may exercise substantial influence over us. They and some of Vornado’s other trustees and officers have interests or positions in other entities that may compete with us.
As of December 31, 2015, Interstate Properties, a New Jersey general partnership, and its partners owned an aggregate of approximately 7.1% of the common shares of Vornado and 26.3% of the common stock of Alexander’s, Inc. (NYSE: ALX) (“Alexander’s”), which is described below.  Steven Roth, David Mandelbaum and Russell B. Wight, Jr. are the three partners of Interstate Properties. Mr. Roth is the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Vornado, the managing general partner of Interstate Properties, and the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Alexander’s. Messrs. Wight and Mandelbaum are Trustees of Vornado and also Directors of Alexander’s.
 
Because of these overlapping interests, Mr. Roth and Interstate Properties and its partners may have substantial influence over Vornado, and therefore over us, and on the outcome of any matters submitted to Vornado’s shareholders for approval. In addition, certain decisions concerning our operations or financial structure may present conflicts of interest among Messrs. Roth, Mandelbaum and Wight and Interstate Properties and our other equity or debt holders. In addition, Mr. Roth, Interstate Properties and its partners, and Alexander’s currently and may in the future engage in a wide variety of activities in the real estate business which may result in conflicts of interest with respect to matters affecting us, such as which of these entities or persons, if any, may take advantage of potential business opportunities, the business focus of these entities, the types of properties and geographic locations in which these entities make investments, potential competition between business activities conducted, or sought to be conducted, competition for properties and tenants, possible corporate transactions such as acquisitions and other strategic decisions affecting the future of these entities.
 
We manage and lease the real estate assets of Interstate Properties under a management agreement for which we receive an annual fee equal to 4% of annual base rent and percentage rent.  See the related party disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
 
18

 
There may be conflicts of interest between Alexander’s and us.
As of December 31, 2015, we owned 32.4% of the outstanding common stock of Alexander’s. Alexander’s is a REIT that has seven properties, which are located in the greater New York metropolitan area.  In addition to the 2.3% that they indirectly own through Vornado, Interstate Properties, which is described above, and its partners owned 26.3% of the outstanding common stock of Alexander’s as of December 31, 2015. Mr. Roth is the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Office of Vornado, the managing general partner of Interstate Properties, and the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Alexander’s.  Messrs. Wight and Mandelbaum are Trustees of Vornado and also Directors of Alexander’s and general partners of Interstate Properties.  Dr. Richard West is a Trustee of Vornado and a Director of Alexander’s.  In addition, Joseph Macnow, our Executive Vice President – Finance and Chief Administrative Officer, is the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Alexander’s, and Stephen W. Theriot, our Chief Financial Officer, is the Assistant Treasurer of Alexander’s.
 
We manage, develop and lease Alexander’s properties under management and development agreements and leasing agreements under which we receive annual fees from Alexander’s. See the related party disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information. 
 
THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF VORNADO REALTY TRUST AND THE MARKET FOR THOSE SHARES GIVE RISE TO VARIOUS RISKS.
 
The trading price of Vornado’s common shares has been volatile and may fluctuate. 
The trading price of Vornado’s common shares has been volatile and may continue to fluctuate widely as a result of a number of factors, many of which are outside our control.  In addition, the stock market is subject to fluctuations in the share prices and trading volumes that affect the market prices of the shares of many companies.  These broad market fluctuations have in the past and may in the future adversely affect the market price of Vornado’s common shares and the redemption price of our Class A units.  Among those factors are:
·          our financial condition and performance;
·          the financial condition of our tenants, including the extent of tenant bankruptcies or defaults;
·          actual or anticipated quarterly fluctuations in our operating results and financial condition;
·          Vornado’s dividend policy;
·          the reputation of REITs and real estate investments generally and the attractiveness of REIT equity securities in comparison to other equity securities, including securities issued by other real estate companies, and fixed income securities;
·          uncertainty and volatility in the equity and credit markets;
·          fluctuations in interest rates;
·          changes in revenue or earnings estimates or publication of research reports and recommendations by financial analysts or actions taken by rating agencies with respect to our securities or those of other REITs;
·          failure to meet analysts’ revenue or earnings estimates;
·          speculation in the press or investment community;
·          strategic actions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions or restructurings;
·          the extent of institutional investor interest in us;
·          the extent of short-selling of Vornado’s common shares and the shares of its competitors;
·          fluctuations in the stock price and operating results of our competitors;
·          general financial and economic market conditions and, in particular, developments related to market conditions for REITs and other real estate related companies;
·          domestic and international economic factors unrelated to our performance; and
·          all other risk factors addressed elsewhere in this Annual Report on the Form 10-K. 
 
A significant decline in Vornado’s stock price could result in substantial losses for Vornado’s shareholders and our unitholders.

Vornado has many shares available for future sale, which could hurt the market price of its shares and the redemption price of our units.
The interests of our current unitholders could be diluted if we or Vornado issue additional equity securities. As of December 31, 2015, Vornado had authorized but unissued, 61,423,147 common shares of beneficial interest, $.04 par value and 57,266,023 preferred shares of beneficial interest, no par value; of which 19,923,393 common shares are reserved for issuance upon redemption our Class A units, convertible securities and Vornado stock options and 11,200,000 preferred shares are reserved for issuance upon redemption of our preferred units.  Any shares not reserved may be issued from time to time in public or private offerings or in connection with acquisitions.  In addition, common and preferred shares reserved may be sold upon issuance in the public market after registration under the Securities Act or under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or other available exemptions from registration.  We cannot predict the effect that future sales of Vornado’s common and preferred shares or our Class A and preferred units will have on the market prices of Vornado’s outstanding shares or our outstanding securities.
 
In addition, under Maryland law, Vornado’s Board has the authority to increase the number of its authorized shares without shareholder approval.

(2)	Excludes residential occupancy statistics, which are shown on page 25.	
(3)	As of December 31, 2015, we own junior and senior mezzanine loans of 85 Tenth Avenue with an accreted balance of $164.6 million.  The junior and senior mezzanine loans bear paid-in-kind interest of 12% and 9%, respectively and mature in May 2017.  We account for our investment in 85 Tenth Avenue using the equity method of accounting because we will receive a 49.9% equity interest in the property after repayment of the junior mezzanine loan.  As a result of recording our share of the GAAP losses of the property, the net carrying amount of these loans is $24.8 million on our consolidated balance sheets.	
(4)	We own a 25% interest in the Fund. The ownership percentage in this section represents the Fund's ownership in the underlying asset.

NEW YORK
 
As of December 31, 2015, our New York segment consisted of 29.3 million square feet in 84 properties.  The 29.3 million square feet is comprised of 21.3 million square feet of office space in 35 properties, 2.6 million square feet of retail space in 65 properties, 1,711 units in eleven residential properties, the 1.4 million square foot Hotel Pennsylvania, and our 32.4% interest in Alexander’s, Inc. (“Alexander’s”), which owns seven properties in the greater New York metropolitan area.  The New York segment also includes 11 garages totaling 1.7 million square feet (4,980 spaces) which are managed by, or leased to, third parties.
 
New York lease terms generally range from five to seven years for smaller tenants to as long as 20 years for major tenants, and may provide for extension options at market rates.  Leases typically provide for periodic step‑ups in rent over the term of the lease and pass through to tenants their share of increases in real estate taxes and operating expenses over a base year.  Electricity is provided to tenants on a sub-metered basis or included in rent based on surveys and adjusted for subsequent utility rate increases.  Leases also typically provide for free rent and tenant improvement allowances for all or a portion of the tenant’s initial construction costs of its premises.
 
As of December 31, 2015, the occupancy rate for our New York segment was 96.4%.

WASHINGTON, DC
 
As of December 31, 2015, our Washington, DC segment consisted of 71 properties aggregating 19.0 million square feet comprised of 15.8 million square feet of office space in 57 properties, seven residential properties containing 2,414 units and a hotel property.  In addition, we are developing a 699-unit residential project with a 40,000 square foot Whole Foods Market at the base of the building and own 18.2 acres of undeveloped land.  The Washington, DC segment also includes 55 garages totaling approximately 8.8 million square feet (29,322 spaces) which are managed by, or leased to, third parties.
 
Washington, DC office lease terms generally range from five to seven years for smaller tenants to as long as 15 years for major tenants, and may provide for extension options at either pre-negotiated or market rates. Leases typically provide for periodic step-ups in rent over the term of the lease and pass through to tenants, the tenants’ share of increases in real estate taxes and certain property operating expenses over a base year. Periodic step-ups in rent are usually based upon fixed percentage increases. Leases also typically provide for free rent and tenant improvement allowances for all or a portion of the tenant’s initial construction costs of its premises.
 
As of December 31, 2015, the occupancy rate for our Washington DC segment was 84.8%, and 25.0% of the occupied space was leased to various agencies of the U.S. Government.

Overview
Vornado Realty L.P. (the “Operating Partnership” and/or the “Company”) is a Delaware limited partnership.  Vornado Realty Trust (“Vornado”) is the sole general partner of, and owned approximately  93.7% of the common limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership at December 31, 2015.  All references to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “Operating Partnership” refer to Vornado Realty L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
 
On January 15, 2015, we completed the spin-off of substantially all of our retail segment comprised of 79 strip shopping centers, three malls, a warehouse park and $225,000,000 of cash to Urban Edge Properties (“UE”) (NYSE: UE). As part of this transaction, we retained 5,717,184 UE operating partnership units (5.4% ownership interest). We are providing transition services to UE for an initial period of up to two years, primarily for information technology support.  UE is providing us with leasing and property management services for (i) certain small retail properties that we plan to sell, and (ii) our affiliate, Alexander’s, Inc. (NYSE: ALX) Rego Park retail assets. Steven Roth, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, is a member of the Board of Trustees of UE. The spin-off distribution was effected by Vornado distributing one UE common share for every two Vornado common shares.  The historical financial results of UE are reflected in our consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations for all periods presented. 
 
We own and operate office and retail properties (our “core” operations) with large concentrations in the New York City metropolitan area and in the Washington, DC / Northern Virginia area. In addition, we have a 32.4% interest in Alexander’s, Inc. (NYSE: ALX) (“Alexander’s”), which owns seven properties in the greater New York metropolitan area, a 32.5% interest in Toys “R” Us, Inc. (“Toys”) as well as interests in other real estate and related investments.
 
Our business objective is to maximize Vornado shareholder value, which we measure by the total return provided to Vornado’s shareholders. Below is a table comparing Vornado’s performance to the FTSE NAREIT Office Index (“Office REIT”) and the MSCI US REIT Index (“MSCI”) for the following periods ended December 31, 2015:

 	 	 	Total Return (1)

 	 	Ten-year	 92.9% 	 	 68.0% 	 	 103.2%  	 	

 	(1)	Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance.	 	
 	(2)	Formerly known as the Morgan Stanley REIT Index.	 	
 
We intend to achieve our business objective by continuing to pursue our investment philosophy and execute our operating strategies through:
 
·      Maintaining a superior team of operating and investment professionals and an entrepreneurial spirit
·      Investing in properties in select markets, such as New York City and Washington, DC, where we believe there is a high likelihood of capital appreciation
·      Acquiring quality properties at a discount to replacement cost and where there is a significant potential for higher rents
·      Investing in retail properties in select under-stored locations such as the New York City metropolitan area
·      Developing and redeveloping existing properties to increase returns and maximize value
·      Investing in operating companies that have a significant real estate component
 
We expect to finance our growth, acquisitions and investments using internally generated funds, proceeds from asset sales and by accessing the public and private capital markets.  We may also offer partnership units in exchange for property and may repurchase or otherwise reacquire these units or any other securities of ours in the future.
 
We compete with a large number of real estate property owners and developers, some of which may be willing to accept lower returns on their investments. Principal factors of competition are rents charged, sales prices, attractiveness of location, the quality of the property and the breadth and the quality of services provided. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends of the global, national, regional and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants and customers, availability and cost of capital, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations, legislation, population and employment trends.  See “Risk Factors” in Item 1A for additional information regarding these factors.

Acquisitions
 
On January 20, 2015, we and one of our real estate fund’s limited partners co-invested with the Fund to buy out the Fund’s joint venture partner’s 57% interest in the Crowne Plaza Times Square Hotel.  The purchase price for the 57% interest was approximately $95,000,000 (our share $39,000,000) which valued the property at approximately $480,000,000.  The property is encumbered by a $310,000,000 mortgage loan bearing interest at LIBOR plus 2.80% which matures in December 2018 with a one-year extension option.  Our aggregate ownership interest in the property increased to 33% from 11%.
 
On March 18, 2015, we acquired the Center Building, a 437,000 square foot office building, located at 33-00 Northern Boulevard in Long Island City, New York, for $142,000,000, including the assumption of an existing $62,000,000, 4.43% mortgage maturing in October 2018.
 
On June 2, 2015, we completed the acquisition of 150 West 34th Street, a 78,000 square foot retail property leased to Old Navy through May 2019, and 226,000 square feet of additional zoning air rights, for approximately $355,000,000.  At closing we completed a $205,000,000 financing of the property. 
 
On June 24, 2015, we entered into a joint venture, in which we own a 55% interest, to develop a 173,000 square foot Class-A office building, located along the western edge of the High Line at 512 West 22nd Street. The development cost of this project is approximately $235,000,000. The development commenced during the fourth quarter of 2015 and is expected to be completed in 2018. We account for our investment in the joint venture under the equity method.
 
On July 31, 2015, we acquired 260 Eleventh Avenue, a 235,000 square foot office property leased to the City of New York through 2021 with two five-year renewal options, a 10,000 square foot parking lot and additional air rights.  The transaction is structured as a 99-year ground lease with an option to purchase the land for $110,000,000.  The $3,900,000 annual ground rent and the purchase option price escalate annually at the lesser of 1.5% or CPI.  The buildings were purchased for 813,900 newly issued Vornado Operating Partnership units valued at approximately $80,000,000.
 
On September 25, 2015, we acquired 265 West 34th Street, a 1,700 square foot retail property and 15,200 square feet of additional zoning air rights, for approximately $28,500,000.       

Dispositions
 
On January 15, 2015, we completed the spin-off of substantially all of our retail segment comprised of 79 strip shopping centers, three malls, a warehouse park and $225,000,000 of cash to Urban Edge Properties (“UE”) (NYSE: UE).  As part of this transaction, we retained 5,717,184 UE operating partnership units (5.4% ownership interest).  We are providing transition services to UE for an initial period of up to two years, primarily for information technology support. UE is providing us with leasing and property management services for (i) certain small retail properties that we plan to sell, and (ii) our affiliate, Alexander’s, Inc. (NYSE: ALX) Rego Park retail assets. Steven Roth, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, is a member of the Board of Trustees of UE.  The spin-off distribution was effected by Vornado distributing one UE common share for every two Vornado common shares.
 
On March 13, 2015, we sold our Geary Street, CA lease for $34,189,000, which resulted in a net gain of $21,376,000.
 
On March 25, 2015, the Fund completed the sale of 520 Broadway in Santa Monica, CA for $91,650,000.  The Fund realized a $23,768,000 net gain over the holding period.
 
On March 31, 2015, we transferred the redeveloped Springfield Town Center, a 1,350,000 square foot mall located in Springfield, Fairfax County, Virginia, to PREIT Associates, L.P., which is the operating partnership of Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust (NYSE: PEI) (collectively, “PREIT”).  The financial statement gain was $7,823,000, of which $7,192,000 was recognized in the first quarter of 2015 and the remaining $631,000 was deferred based on our ownership interest in PREIT.  In the first quarter of 2014, we recorded a non-cash impairment loss of $20,000,000 on Springfield Town Center which is included in “income from discontinued operations” on our consolidated statements of income.
 
On August 6, 2015, we sold our 50% interest in the Monmouth Mall in Eatontown, NJ to our joint venture partner for $38,000,000, valuing the property at approximately $229,000,000, which resulted in a net gain of $33,153,000.
 
On September 9, 2015, we completed the sale of 1750 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, a 278,000 square foot office building in Washington, DC for $182,000,000, resulting in a net gain of approximately $102,000,000 which is included in “net gain on disposition of wholly owned and partially owned assets” on our consolidated statement of income.  The tax gain of approximately $137,000,000 was deferred as part of a like-kind exchange.  We are managing the property on behalf of the new owner.

On December 22, 2015, we completed the sale of 20 Broad Street, a 473,000 square foot office building in Manhattan for an aggregate consideration of $200,000,000.  The total income from this transaction was approximately $157,000,000 comprised of approximately $142,000,000 from the gain on sale and $15,000,000 of lease termination income.
 
We also sold five residual retail properties, in separate transactions, for an aggregate of $10,731,000, which resulted in net gains of $3,675,000.
 
Financings

Secured Debt
 
On April 1, 2015, we completed a $308,000,000 refinancing of RiverHouse Apartments, a three building, 1,670 unit rental complex located in Arlington, VA.  The loan is interest only at LIBOR plus 1.28% (1.52% at December 31, 2015) and matures in 2025.  We realized net proceeds of approximately $43,000,000.  The property was previously encumbered by a 5.43%, $195,000,000 mortgage maturing in April 2015 and a $64,000,000 mortgage at LIBOR plus 1.53% maturing in 2018. 
 
On June 2, 2015, we completed a $205,000,000 financing in connection with the acquisition of 150 West 34th Street.  The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% (2.52% at December 31, 2015) and matures in 2018 with two one-year extension options. 
 
On July 28, 2015, we completed a $580,000,000 refinancing of 100 West 33rd Street, a 1.1 million square foot property comprised of 855,000 square feet of office space and the 256,000 square foot Manhattan Mall.  The loan is interest only at LIBOR plus 1.65% (1.92% at December 31, 2015) and matures in July 2020.  We realized net proceeds of approximately $242,000,000.
 
On September 22, 2015, we upsized the loan on our 220 Central Park South development by $350,000,000 to $950,000,000.  The interest rate on the loan is LIBOR plus 2.00% (2.42% at December 31, 2015) and the final maturity date is 2020.  In connection with the upsizing, the standby commitment for a $500,000,000 mezzanine loan for this development has been terminated by payment of a $15,000,000 contractual termination fee, which was capitalized as a component of “development costs and construction in progress” on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015.
 
On December 11, 2015, we completed a $375,000,000 refinancing of 888 Seventh Avenue, a 882,000 square foot Manhattan office building.  The five-year loan is interest only at LIBOR plus 1.60% (1.92% at December 31, 2015) which was swapped for the term of the loan to a fixed rate of 3.15% and matures in December 2020.  We realized net proceeds of approximately $49,000,000.
 
On December 21, 2015, we completed a $450,000,000 financing of the retail condominium of the St. Regis Hotel and the adjacent retail town house located on Fifth Avenue at 55th Street.  The loan matures in December 2020, with two one-year extension options.  The loan is interest only at LIBOR plus 1.80% (2.19% at December 31, 2015) for the first three years, LIBOR plus 1.90% for years four and five, and LIBOR plus 2.00% during the extension periods.  We own a 74.3% controlling interest in the joint venture which owns the property.
 
Senior Unsecured Notes
 
On January 1, 2015, we redeemed all of the $500,000,000 principal amount of our outstanding 4.25% senior unsecured notes, which were scheduled to mature on April 1, 2015, at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount plus accrued interest through December 31, 2014.
 
Unsecured Term Loan
 
On October 30, 2015, we entered into an unsecured delayed-draw term loan facility in the maximum amount of $750,000,000.  The facility matures in October 2018 with two one-year extension options.  The interest rate is LIBOR plus 1.15% (1.40% at December 31, 2015) with a fee of 0.20% per annum on the unused portion.  At closing, we drew $187,500,000.  The facility provides that the maximum amount available is twice the amount outstanding on April 29, 2016, limited to $750,000,000, and all draws must be made by October 2017.  This facility, together with the $950,000,000 development loan mentioned above, provides the funding for our 220 Central Park South development.

Overview - continued

Washington, DC Segment
 
Comparable EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2015, was $3,467,000 behind last year.
 
We expect that Washington’s 2016 comparable EBITDA will be approximately $7,000,000 to $11,000,000 lower than 2015, comprised of:
 
(i)             core business being flat to $4,000,000 higher, offset by, 
(ii)           occupancy of Skyline properties declining further, decreasing EBITDA by approximately $6,500,000, and
(iii)          1726 M Street and 1150 17th Street being taken out of service (to prepare for the development in the future of a new Class A trophy office building) decreasing EBITDA by approximately $4,500,000.
 
Of the 2,395,000 square feet subject to the effects of the Base Realignment and Closure (“BRAC”) statute, 393,000 square feet has been taken out of service for redevelopment and 1,372,000 square feet has been leased or is pending.  The table below summarizes the status of the BRAC space as of December 31, 2015.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements we have made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 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. Set forth below is a summary of the accounting policies that we believe are critical to the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.  The summary should be read in conjunction with the more complete discussion of our accounting policies included in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
Real Estate
 
Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Betterments, major renewals and certain costs directly related to the improvement and leasing of real estate are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. For redevelopment of existing operating properties, the net book value of the existing property under redevelopment plus the cost for the construction and improvements incurred in connection with the redevelopment are capitalized to the extent the capitalized costs of the property do not exceed the estimated fair value of the redeveloped property when complete. If the cost of the redeveloped property, including the net book value of the existing property, exceeds the estimated fair value of redeveloped property, the excess is charged to expense. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives which range from 7 to 40 years. Tenant allowances are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the related leases, which approximate the useful lives of the assets.
 
Upon the acquisition of real estate, we assess the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, identified intangibles, such as acquired above and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and acquired liabilities and we allocate the purchase price based on these assessments. We assess fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information.  Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions.  We record acquired intangible assets (including acquired above-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and acquired intangible liabilities (including below–market leases) at their estimated fair value separate and apart from goodwill. We amortize identified intangibles that have finite lives over the period they are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the property or business acquired.
 
As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the carrying amounts of real estate, net of accumulated depreciation, were $14.7 billion and $13.7 billion, respectively.  As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the carrying amounts of identified intangible assets (including acquired above-market leases, tenant relationships and acquired in-place leases) were $227,901,000 and $225,155,000, respectively, and the carrying amounts of identified intangible liabilities, a component of “deferred revenue” on our consolidated balance sheets, were $318,148,000 and $328,201,000, respectively.
 
Our properties, including any related intangible assets, are individually reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the aggregate projected future cash flows over the anticipated holding period on an undiscounted basis.  An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the property’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value.  Impairment analyses are based on our current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the analyses are prepared.  If our estimates of the projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods, or market conditions change, our evaluation of impairment losses may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements.  The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is subjective and is based, in part, on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results.  Plans to hold properties over longer periods decrease the likelihood of recording impairment losses.

Partially Owned Entities
 
We consolidate entities in which we have a controlling financial interest.  In determining whether we have a controlling financial interest in a partially owned entity and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, we consider factors such as ownership interest, board representation, management representation, authority to make decisions, and contractual and substantive participating rights of the partners/members as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and we are the primary beneficiary.  We are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We generally do not control a partially owned entity if the entity is not considered a VIE and the approval of all of the partners/members is contractually required with respect to major decisions, such as operating and capital budgets, the sale, exchange or other disposition of real property, the hiring of a chief executive officer, the commencement, compromise or settlement of any lawsuit, legal proceeding or arbitration or the placement of new or additional financing secured by assets of the venture.  We account for investments under the equity method when the requirements for consolidation are not met, and we have significant influence over the operations of the investee. Equity method investments are initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for our share of net income or loss and cash contributions and distributions each period. Investments that do not qualify for consolidation or equity method accounting are accounted for on the cost method.
 
Investments in partially owned entities are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.  An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the carrying amount of an investment over its estimated fair value.  Impairment analyses are based on current plans, intended holding periods and available information at the time the analyses are prepared.  The ultimate realization of our investments in partially owned entities is dependent on a number of factors, including the performance of each investment and market conditions.  If our estimates of the projected future cash flows, the nature of development activities for properties for which such activities are planned and the estimated fair value of the investment change based on market conditions or otherwise, our evaluation of impairment losses may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements.  The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is subjective and is based, in part, on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results. 
 
As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the carrying amounts of investments in partially owned entities were $1.6 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
 
We periodically evaluate the collectability of amounts due from tenants and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts ($11,908,000 and $12,210,000 as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively) for estimated losses resulting from the inability of tenants to make required payments under the lease agreements. We also maintain an allowance for receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents ($2,751,000 and $3,188,000 as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively). This receivable arises from earnings recognized in excess of amounts currently due under the lease agreements. Management exercises judgment in establishing these allowances and considers payment history and current credit status in developing these estimates. These estimates may differ from actual results, which could be material to our consolidated financial statements.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
We have the following revenue sources and revenue recognition policies:
 
·        Base Rent — income arising from tenant leases. These rents are recognized over the non-cancelable term of the related leases on a straight-line basis which includes the effects of rent steps and rent abatements under the leases.  We commence rental revenue recognition when the tenant takes possession of the leased space and the leased space is substantially ready for its intended use.  In addition, in circumstances where we provide a tenant improvement allowance for improvements that are owned by the tenant, we recognize the allowance as a reduction of rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.   
 
·        Percentage Rent — income arising from retail tenant leases that is contingent upon tenant sales exceeding defined thresholds. These rents are recognized only after the contingency has been removed (i.e., when tenant sales thresholds have been achieved).
 
·        Hotel Revenue — income arising from the operation of the Hotel Pennsylvania which consists of rooms revenue, food and beverage revenue, and banquet revenue. Income is recognized when rooms are occupied. Food and beverage and banquet revenue are recognized when the services have been rendered.
 
·        Trade Shows Revenue — income arising from the operation of trade shows, including rentals of booths. This revenue is recognized when the trade shows have occurred.
 
·        Expense Reimbursements — revenue arising from tenant leases which provide for the recovery of all or a portion of the operating expenses and real estate taxes of the respective property. This revenue is accrued in the same periods as the expenses are incurred.
 
·        Management, Leasing and Other Fees — income arising from contractual agreements with third parties or with partially owned entities. This revenue is recognized as the related services are performed under the respective agreements.
 
Before we recognize revenue, we assess, among other things, its collectibility. If our assessment of the collectibility of revenue changes, the impact on our consolidated financial statements could be material.
 
Income Taxes
 
Vornado operates in a manner intended to enable it to continue to qualify as a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Under those sections, a REIT which distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income as a dividend to its shareholders each year and which meets certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders. Vornado distributes to its shareholders 100% of its taxable income and therefore, no provision for Federal income taxes is required.  If Vornado fails to distribute the required amount of income to its shareholders, or fails to meet other REIT requirements, it may fail to qualify as a REIT which may result in substantial adverse tax consequences.

Notes to preceding tabular information:	
 	 	 	 	 	 	   	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
 (1)	EBITDA represents "Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization." We consider EBITDA a non-GAAP financial measure for making decisions and assessing the unlevered performance of our segments as it relates to the total return on assets as opposed to the levered return on equity. As properties are bought and sold based on a multiple of EBITDA, we utilize this measure to make investment decisions as well as to compare the performance of our assets to that of our peers. EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.	
 	 	 	 	 	 	   	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
 (2)	Interest and debt expense, depreciation and amortization and income tax expense in the reconciliation of net income to EBITDA includes our share of these items from partially owned entities.

Interest and Other Investment Income, net
Interest and other investment income, net was $26,978,000 in the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $38,752,000 in the prior year , a decrease in income of $11,774,000.   This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in the value of investments in our deferred compensation plan (offset by a corresponding decrease in the liability for plan assets in “general and administrative” expenses on our consolidated statements of income).
 
Interest and Debt Expense
Interest and debt expense was $378,025,000 in the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $412,755,000 in the prior year, a decrease of $34,730,000. This decrease was primarily due to (i) $26,652,000 of interest savings from the redemption of the $445,000,000 principal amount of the outstanding 7.875% senior unsecured notes during the fourth quarter of 2014, (ii) $21,375,000 of interest savings from the redemption of the $500,000,000 principal amount of the outstanding 4.25% senior unsecured notes on January 1, 2015, partially offset by (iii) $5,297,000 of interest expense from the issuance of $450,000,000 of 2.50% senior unsecured notes in June 2014, (iv) $5,182,000 of interest expense from the current year’s financings of 150 West 34th Street and the Center Building, and (v) $3,481,000 of lower capitalized interest.

Net gain on disposition of wholly owned and partially owned assets was $251,821,000 i n the year ended December 31, 2015, $142,693,000 from the net gain on sale of 20 Broad Street, $102,404,000 from the net gain on sale of 1750 Pennsylvania Avenue and $6,724,000 from the sale of residential condominiums, compared to $13,568,000 in the year ended December 31, 2014 , from the sale of residential condominiums and a land parcel.
 
Income Tax Benefit (Expense)
In the year ended December 31, 2015, we had an income tax benefit of $84,695,000, compared to an expense of $9,281,000 in the prior year, a decrease in expense of $93,976,000.  This decrease in expense resulted primarily from the reversal of the valuation allowances against certain of our deferred tax assets, as we have concluded that it is more-likely than not that we will generate sufficient taxable income from the sale of 220 Central Park South residential condominium units to realize the deferred tax assets.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Subsidiaries
 
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries was $55,765,000 in the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $96,561,000 in the prior year, a decrease of $40,796,000.  This decrease resulted primarily from lower net income allocated to the noncontrolling interests, including noncontrolling interests of our real estate fund investments .  
 
Preferred Unit Distributions
 
Preferred unit distributions were $80,736,000 in the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $81,514,000 in the prior year, a decrease of $778,000.

Same Store EBITDA
Same store EBITDA represents EBITDA from property level operations which are owned by us in both the current and prior year reporting periods.  Same store EBITDA excludes segment-level overhead expenses, which are expenses that we do not consider to be property-level expenses, as well as other non-operating items.  We also present same store EBITDA on a cash basis (which excludes income from the straight-lining of rents, amortization of below-market leases, net of above-market leases and other non-cash adjustments).  We present these non-GAAP financial measures to (i) facilitate meaningful comparisons of the operational performance of our properties and segments, (ii) make decisions on whether to buy, sell or refinance properties, and (iii) compare the performance of our properties and segments to those of our peers.  Same store EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

Notes to preceding tabular information:

New York:
 
(1)      The $14,302,000 increase in New York same store EBITDA resulted primarily from increases in Office and Retail EBITDA of $13,688,000 and $6,519,000, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in Hotel Pennsylvania EBITDA of $7,709,000.  The Office and Retail EBITDA increases resulted primarily from higher rents, including signage, partially offset by lower management and leasing fees and higher operating expenses, net of reimbursements.
 
(2)      Excluding Hotel Pennsylvania, same store EBITDA increased by 2.4%.

Washington, DC:
 
(3)      The $3,773,000 decrease in Washington, DC same store EBITDA resulted primarily from higher net operating expenses of $2,088,000, lower fee and other income of $942,000, and lower management and leasing fees of $480,000.

(1)	On June 7, 2013, we sold an 8.65% economic interest in our investment of Independence Plaza, which reduced our economic interest to 50.1%.  As a result, we determined that we were no longer the primary beneficiary of the VIE and accordingly, we deconsolidated the operations of the property on June 7, 2013 and began accounting for our investment under the equity method.	
(2)	Due to the completion of the project.  This decrease in revenue is substantially offset by a decrease in development costs expensed in the period.  See note (4) on page 60.	
(3)	Represents the change in the elimination of intercompany fees from operating segments upon consolidation.  See note (3) on page 60.

Notes to preceding tabular information:	
 	 	 	 	 	 	   	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
 (1)	EBITDA represents "Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization." We consider EBITDA a non-GAAP financial measure for making decisions and assessing the unlevered performance of our segments as it relates to the total return on assets as opposed to the levered return on equity. As properties are bought and sold based on a multiple of EBITDA, we utilize this measure to make investment decisions as well as to compare the performance of our assets to that of our peers. EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.	
 	 	 	 	 	 	   	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
 (2)	Interest and debt expense, depreciation and amortization and income tax expense in the reconciliation of net income to EBITDA includes our share of these items from partially owned entities.

Same Store EBITDA
 
Same store EBITDA represents EBITDA from property level operations which are owned by us in both the current and prior year reporting periods.  Same store EBITDA excludes segment-level overhead expenses, which are expenses that we do not consider to be property-level expenses, as well as other non-operating items.  We also present same store EBITDA on a cash basis (which excludes income from the straight-lining of rents, amortization of below-market leases, net of above-market leases and other non-cash adjustments).  We present these non-GAAP financial measures to (i) facilitate meaningful comparisons of the operational performance of our properties and segments, (ii) make decisions on whether to buy, sell or refinance properties, and (iii) compare the performance of our properties and segments to those of our peers.  Same store EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

Related Party Transactions

Alexander’s
 
We own 32.4% of Alexander’s. Steven Roth, the Chairman of Vornado’s Board of Trustees and its Chief Executive Officer is also the Chairman of Alexander’s Board of Directors and its Chief Executive Officer.  We provide various services to Alexander’s in accordance with management, development and leasing agreements.  These agreements are described in Note 6 - Investments in Partially Owned Entities to our consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
On January 15, 2015, we completed the spin-off of 79 strip shopping centers, three malls, a warehouse park and $225,000,000 of cash to UE and the transfer of all of the employees responsible for the management and leasing of those assets.   In addition, we entered into agreements with UE to provide management and leasing services, on our behalf, for Alexander’s Rego Park retail assets.  Fees for these services are similar to the fees we are receiving from Alexander’s as described in Note 6 - Investments in Partially Owned Entities to our consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
Interstate Properties (“Interstate”)
 
Interstate is a general partnership in which Mr. Roth is the managing general partner. David Mandelbaum and Russell B. Wight, Jr., Trustees of Vornado and Directors of Alexander’s, are Interstate’s two other general partners. As of December 31, 2015, Interstate and its partners beneficially owned an aggregate of approximately 7.1% of the common shares of beneficial interest of Vornado and 26.3% of Alexander’s common stock.
 
We manage and lease the real estate assets of Interstate pursuant to a management agreement for which we receive an annual fee equal to 4% of annual base rent and percentage rent.  The management agreement has a term of one year and is automatically renewable unless terminated by either of the parties on 60 days’ notice at the end of the term.  We believe, based upon comparable fees charged by other real estate companies, that the management agreement terms are fair to us.  We earned $541,000, $535,000, and $606,000 of management fees under the agreement for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Property rental income is our primary source of cash flow and is dependent upon the occupancy and rental rates of our properties. Our cash requirements include property operating expenses, capital improvements, tenant improvements, debt service, leasing commissions, distributions to unitholders, as well as acquisition and development costs.    Other sources of liquidity to fund cash requirements include proceeds from debt financings, including mortgage loans, senior unsecured borrowings, unsecured term loan and our unsecured revolving credit facilities; proceeds from the issuance of equity securities; and asset sales. 
 
We anticipate that cash flow from continuing operations over the next twelve months will be adequate to fund our business operations, cash distributions to unitholders, debt amortization and recurring capital expenditures.  Capital requirements for development expenditures and acquisitions may require funding from borrowings and/or equity offerings.
 
We may from time to time purchase or retire outstanding debt securities.  Such purchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements and other factors.  The amounts involved in connection with these transactions could be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Distributions
 
On January 20, 2016, we declared a quarterly Class A unit distribution of $0.63 per Class A unit (an indicated annual rate of $2.52 per Class A unit).  This Class A unit distribution, if continued for all of 2016, would require us to pay out approximately $476,000,000 of cash for Class A units held by Vornado.  In addition, during 2016, we expect to pay approximately $82,000,000 of cash distributions on outstanding preferred units and approximately $32,000,000 of cash distributions to redeemable security holders.

Financing Activities and Contractual Obligations
 
We  have issued senior unsecured notes from a shelf registration statement that contain financial covenants that restrict our ability to incur debt, and that require us to maintain a level of unencumbered assets based on the level of our secured debt.  Our unsecured revolving credit facilities contain financial covenants that require us to maintain minimum interest coverage and maximum debt to market capitalization ratios, and provide for higher interest rates in the event of a decline in our ratings below Baa3/BBB.  Our unsecured revolving credit facilities also contain customary conditions precedent to borrowing, including representations and warranties, and contain customary events of default that could give rise to accelerated repayment, including such items as failure to pay interest or principal.  As of December 31, 2015, we are in compliance with all of the financial covenants required by our senior unsecured notes and our unsecured revolving credit facilities.

As of December 31, 2015, we had $1,835,707,000 of cash and cash equivalents and $1,911,904,000 of borrowing capacity under our unsecured revolving credit facilities, net of outstanding borrowings and letters of credit of $550,000,000 and $38,096,000, respectively.  A summary of our consolidated debt as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 is presented below.

Details of 2015 financing activities are provided in the “Overview” of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations.  Details of 2014 financing activities are discussed below.
 
Secured Debt
 
On January 31, 2014, we completed a $600,000,000 loan secured by our 220 Central Park South development site.  The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.75% and matures in January 2016, with three one-year extension options.
 
On April 16, 2014, we completed a $350,000,000 refinancing of 909 Third Avenue, a 1.3 million square foot Manhattan office building.  The seven-year interest only loan bears interest at 3.91% and matures in May 2021. We realized net proceeds of approximately $145,000,000 after defeasing the existing 5.64%, $193,000,000 mortgage, defeasance cost and other closing costs.
 
On August 12, 2014, we completed a $185,000,000 financing of the Universal buildings, a 690,000 square foot, two-building office complex located in Washington, DC. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.90% and matures in August 2019 with two one-year extension options. The loan amortizes based on a 30-year schedule beginning in the fourth year.
 
On August 26, 2014, we obtained a standby commitment for up to $500,000,000 of five-year mezzanine loan financing to fund a portion of the development expenditures at 220 Central Park South. 
 
On October 27, 2014, we completed a $140,000,000 financing of 655 Fifth Avenue, a 57,500 square foot retail and office property.  The loan is interest only at LIBOR plus 1.40% and matures in October 2019 with two one-year extension options.
 
On December 8, 2014, we completed a $575,000,000 refinancing of Two Penn Plaza, a 1.6 million square foot Manhattan office building.  The loan is interest only at LIBOR plus 1.65% and matures in 2019 with two one-year extension options.  We realized net proceeds of approximately $143,000,000.  Pursuant to an existing swap agreement, the $422,000,000 previous loan on the property was swapped to a fixed rate of 4.78% through March 2018.  Therefore, $422,000,000 of the new loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.78% through March 2018 and the balance of $153,000,000 floats through March 2018.  The entire $575,000,000 will float thereafter for the duration of the new loan.

Senior Unsecured Notes
 
On June 16, 2014, we completed a green bond public offering of $450,000,000 2.50% senior unsecured notes due June 30, 2019. The notes were sold at 99.619% of their face amount to yield 2.581%.
 
On October 1, 2014, we redeemed all of the $445,000,000 principal amount of our outstanding 7.875% senior unsecured notes, which were scheduled to mature on October 1, 2039, at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount plus accrued interest through the redemption date.  In the fourth quarter of 2014, we wrote off $12,532,000 of unamortized deferred financing costs, which are included as a component of “interest and debt expense” on our consolidated statements of income.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facilities
 
On September 30, 2014, we extended one of our two $1.25 billion unsecured revolving credit facilities from November 2015 to November 2018 with two six-month extension options.  The interest rate on the extended facility was lowered to LIBOR plus 105 basis points from LIBOR plus 125 basis points and the facility fee was reduced to 20 basis points from 25 basis points.

Acquisitions and Investments
 
Details of 2015 acquisitions and investments are provided in the “Overview” of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations.  Details of 2014 acquisitions and investments are discussed below.
 
On June 26, 2014, we invested an additional $22,700,000 to increase our ownership in One Park Avenue to 55.0% from 46.5% through a joint venture with an institutional investor, who increased its ownership interest to 45.0%.  The transaction was based on a property value of $560,000,000.  The property is encumbered by a $250,000,000 interest only mortgage loan that bears interest at 4.995% and matures in March 2016. 
 
On August 1, 2014, we acquired the land under our 715 Lexington Avenue retail property located on the Southeast corner of 58 th Street and Lexington Avenue in Manhattan, for $63,000,000.

On October 28, 2014 , we completed the purchase of the retail condominium of the St. Regis Hotel for $700,000,000.  We own a 74.3% controlling interest of the joint venture which owns the property.  The acquisition was used in a like-kind exchange for income tax purposes for the sale of 1740 Broadway.
 
On November 21, 2014, we entered into an agreement to acquire the Center Building, an eight story 437,000 square foot office building, located at 33-00 Northern Boulevard in Long Island City, New York.  The building is 98% leased.  The purchase price is approximately $142,000,000, including the assumption of an existing $62,000,000 4.43% mortgage maturing in October 2018.

Development and Redevelopment Expenditures
 
We are constructing a residential condominium tower containing 392,000 salable square feet on our 220 Central Park South development site.  The incremental development cost of this project is approximately $1.3 billion, of which $293,000,000 has been expended as of December 31, 2015.
 
We are developing The Bartlett, a 699-unit residential project in Pentagon City, which is expected to be completed in 2016.  The project includes a 40,000 square foot Whole Foods Market at the base of the building.  The incremental development cost of this project is approximately $250,000,000, of which $166,000,000 has been expended as of December 31, 2015.
 
On June 24, 2015, we entered into a joint venture, in which we own a 55% interest, to develop a 173,000 square foot Class-A office building, located along the western edge of the High Line at 512 West 22nd Street in the West Chelsea submarket of Manhattan.  The development cost of this project is approximately $235,000,000.  On November 24, 2015, the joint venture obtained a $126,000,000 construction loan.  The loan matures in November 2019 with two six-month extension options.  The interest rate is LIBOR plus 2.65% (3.07% at December 31, 2015).  As of December 31, 2015, the outstanding balance of the loan was $44,072,000, of which $24,240,000 is our share.    
 
On July 23, 2014, a joint venture in which we are a 50.1% partner entered into a 99-year ground lease for 61 Ninth Avenue located on the Southwest corner of Ninth Avenue and 15 th Street in the West Chelsea submarket of Manhattan.  The venture’s current plans are to construct an office building, with retail at the base, of approximately 167,000 square feet.  Total development costs are currently estimated to be approximately $150,000,000.
 
We plan to demolish two adjacent Washington, DC office properties, 1726 M Street and 1150 17 th Street in the first half of 2016 and replace them in the future with a new 335,000 square foot Class A office building, to be addressed 1700 M Street.  The incremental development cost of the project is approximately $170,000,000.
 
We are also evaluating other development and redevelopment opportunities at certain of our properties in Manhattan, including the Penn Plaza District, and in Washington, including Crystal City, Rosslyn and Pentagon City.
 
There can be no assurance that any of our development or redevelopment projects will commence, or if commenced, be completed, or completed on schedule or within budget.

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 with limits of $2.0 billion per occurrence, with sub-limits for certain perils such as flood and earthquake. Our California properties have earthquake insurance with coverage of $180,000,000 per occurrence and in the annual aggregate, subject to a deductible in the amount of 5% of the value of the affected property. We maintain coverage for terrorism acts with limits of $4.0 billion per occurrence and in the aggregate, and $2.0 billion per occurrence and in the aggregate for terrorism involving nuclear, biological, chemical and radiological (“NBCR”) terrorism events, as defined by Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015, which expires in December 2020.
 
Penn Plaza Insurance Company, LLC (“PPIC”), our wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, acts as a re-insurer with respect to a portion of all risk property and rental value insurance and a portion of our earthquake insurance coverage, and as a direct insurer for coverage for acts of terrorism including NBCR acts. Coverage for acts of terrorism (excluding NBCR acts) is fully reinsured by third party insurance companies and the Federal government with no exposure to PPIC. For NBCR acts, PPIC is responsible for a deductible of $3,200,000 ($2,400,000 effective January 1, 2016) per occurrence and 15% of the balance of a covered loss (16% effective January 1, 2016) and the Federal government is responsible for the remaining 85% of a covered loss (84% effective January 1, 2016). We are ultimately responsible for any loss incurred by PPIC.
 
We continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism.  However, we cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future.
 
Our debt instruments, consisting of mortgage loans secured by our properties which are non-recourse to us, senior unsecured notes and revolving credit agreements contain customary covenants requiring us to maintain insurance. Although we believe that we have adequate insurance coverage for purposes of these agreements, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. Further, if lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain it could adversely affect our ability to finance our properties and expand our portfolio.

Other Commitments and Contingencies
 
We are from time to time involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
Each of our properties has been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment at various times. The environmental assessments did not reveal any material environmental contamination. However, there can be no assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites, or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant costs to us.
 
Our mortgage loans are non-recourse to us.  However, in certain cases we have provided guarantees or master leased tenant space.  These guarantees and master leases terminate either upon the satisfaction of specified circumstances or repayment of the underlying loans.  As of December 31, 2015, the aggregate dollar amount of these guarantees and master leases is approximately $427,000,000.
 
At December 31, 2015, $38,096,000 of letters of credit were outstanding under one of our unsecured revolving credit facilities.  Our unsecured revolving credit facilities contain financial covenants that require us to maintain minimum interest coverage and maximum debt to market capitalization ratios, and provide for higher interest rates in the event of a decline in our ratings below Baa3/BBB. Our unsecured revolving credit facilities also contain customary conditions precedent to borrowing, including representations and warranties, and also contain customary events of default that could give rise to accelerated repayment, including such items as failure to pay interest or principal.
 
As of December 31, 2015, we expect to fund additional capital to certain of our partially owned entities aggregating approximately $70,000,000.
 
As of December 31, 2015, we have construction commitments aggregating $873,800,000.

ITEM 7A.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We have exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates. Market interest rates are sensitive to many factors that are beyond our control. Our exposure to a change in interest rates on our consolidated and non-consolidated debt (all of which arises out of non-trading activity) is as follows:
 
(Amounts in thousands, except per unit amounts)	2015 	 	2014

 	Fixed rate (including $661,513 and	 	 	   	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
 	 	$674,443 of Toys debt in 2015 and 2014)	 	 2,782,025 	   	 	6.37%	 	 	 -   	 	 	 2,676,941 	 	6.48%

Per Class A unit - diluted	 	 	   	 	 	 	$	0.28 	 	 	 	 	 	

We may utilize various financial instruments to mitigate the impact of interest rate fluctuations on our cash flows and earnings, including hedging strategies, depending on our analysis of the interest rate environment and the costs and risks of such strategies. As of December 31, 2015, we have an interest rate swap on a $417,000,000 mortgage loan that swapped the rate from LIBOR plus 1.65% (1.89% at December 31, 2015) to a fixed rate of 4.78% through March 2018.
 
In connection with the $375,000,000 refinancing of 888 Seventh Avenue, we entered into an interest rate swap from LIBOR plus 1.60% (1.92% at December 31, 2015) to a fixed rate of 3.15% through December 2020.
 
Fair Value of Debt
 
The estimated fair value of our consolidated debt is calculated based on current market prices and discounted cash flows at the current rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings for the remaining term of such debt.  As of December 31, 2015, the estimated fair value of our consolidated debt was $10,911,500,000.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Partners and the Board of Trustees of Vornado Realty Trust
Vornado Realty L.P.
New York, New York
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Vornado Realty L.P. and consolidated subsidiaries (the “Partnership”) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 15. These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Partnership ’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Vornado Realty L.P. and consolidated subsidiaries at December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
 
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the  Partnership has changed its method of accounting for and disclosure of discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2015 due to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.”
 
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Partnership ’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on the criteria established in Internal Control— Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 22, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vornado Realty L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries. All inter-company amounts have been eliminated.  Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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.
 
Certain prior year balances have been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation.  Beginning in the year ended December 31, 2015, we classified signage revenue within “property rentals”.  For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, $37,929,000 and $32,866,000, respectively, related to signage revenue has been reclassified from “fee and other income” to “property rentals” to conform to the current period presentation.
 
On January 15, 2015, we completed the spin-off of substantially all of our retail segment comprised of 79 strip shopping centers, three malls, a warehouse park and $225,000,000 of cash to UE.  As part of this transaction, we received 5,717,184 UE operating partnership units (5.4% ownership interest). 
 
Recently Issued Accounting Literature
 
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an update (“ASU 2014-08”) Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity to ASC Topic 205, Presentation of Financial Statements and ASC Topic 360, Property Plant and Equipment. Under ASU 2014-08, only disposals that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the entity’s results and operations would qualify as discontinued operations. In addition, ASU 2014-08 expands the disclosure requirements for disposals that meet the definition of a discontinued operation and requires entities to disclose information about disposals of individually significant components that do not meet the definition of discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that began after December 15, 2014. Upon adoption of this standard on January 1, 2015, individual properties sold in the ordinary course of business are not expected to qualify as discontinued operations. Under ASU 2014-08, operating results of disposals are included in income from continuing operations, and any associated gains are now included in “net gain on disposition of wholly owned and partially owned assets” on our consolidated statements of income. Gain on sales of properties classified as discontinued operations prior to January 1, 2015 are classified in “income from discontinued operations” on our consolidated statements of income. The financial results of UE and certain other retail assets are reflected in our consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations for all periods presented (see Note 7 – Dispositions for further details).
 
 In May 2014, the FASB issued an update ("ASU 2014-09") establishing 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 June 2014, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2014-12”) to ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation .  ASU 2014-12 requires an entity to treat performance targets that can be met after the requisite service period of a share based award has ended, as a performance condition that affects vesting.  ASU 2014-12 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2015.  We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-12 on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2015, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2015-02”) Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis to ASC Topic 810, Consolidation .  ASU 2015-02 affects reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities.  Specifically, the amendments: (i) modify the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities ("VIEs") or voting interest entities, (ii) eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, (iii) affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs, and (iv) provide a scope exception for certain entities.  ASU 2015-02 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015.  We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2015-02 on our consolidated financial statements. 
 
In April 2015, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2015-03”) Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs to ASC Topic 835, Interest (“ASC 835”).  ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability to which they relate, consistent with debt discounts, as opposed to being presented as assets.  ASU 2015-03 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015.  We elected to early adopt ASU 2015-03 effective as of December 31, 2015 with retrospective application to our December 31, 2014 consolidating balance sheet.  The effect of the adoption of ASU 2015-03 was to reclassify debt issuance costs of approximately $79,987,000 as of December 31, 2014 from “deferred leasing and financing costs, net” to a contra account as a deduction from the related debt liabilities.  There was no effect on our consolidated statements of income.
 
In August 2015, the FASB issued an update (“ASU 2015-15”) Interest – Imputation of Interest to ASC 835.  For debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements, ASU 2015-15 allows entities to present debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortize the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement.  We elected to early adopt ASU 2015-15 effective as of December 31, 2015 with retrospective application to our December 31, 2014 balance sheet.  These debt issuance costs were $7,720,000 and $11,549,000 as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and are included as a component of “other assets”.
 
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 (“ASC 825”).  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.

Significant Accounting Policies
 
Real Estate:  Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Betterments, major renewals and certain costs directly related to the improvement and leasing of real estate are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. For redevelopment of existing operating properties, the net book value of the existing property under redevelopment plus the cost for the construction and improvements incurred in connection with the redevelopment are capitalized to the extent the capitalized costs of the property do not exceed the estimated fair value of the redeveloped property when complete. If the cost of the redeveloped property, including the net book value of the existing property, exceeds the estimated fair value of redeveloped property, the excess is charged to expense. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives which range from 7 to 40 years. Tenant allowances are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the related leases, which approximate the useful lives of the assets. Additions to real estate include interest and debt expense capitalized during construction of $59,305,000 and $62,786,000 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
 
Upon the acquisition of real estate, we assess the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, identified intangibles, such as acquired above and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and acquired liabilities and we allocate the purchase price based on these assessments. We assess fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information.  Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions.  We record acquired intangible assets (including acquired above-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and acquired intangible liabilities (including below–market leases) at their estimated fair value separate and apart from goodwill. We amortize identified intangibles that have finite lives over the period they are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the property or business acquired.
 
Our properties, including any related intangible assets, are individually reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the aggregate projected future cash flows over the anticipated holding period on an undiscounted basis.  An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the property’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value.  Impairment analyses are based on our current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the analyses are prepared.  If our estimates of the projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods, or market conditions change, our evaluation of impairment losses may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements.  The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is subjective and is based, in part, on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results.  Plans to hold properties over longer periods decrease the likelihood of recording impairment losses.

Partially Owned Entities:   We consolidate entities in which we have a controlling financial interest.  In determining whether we have a controlling financial interest in a partially owned entity and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, we consider factors such as ownership interest, board representation, management representation, authority to make decisions, and contractual and substantive participating rights of the partners/members as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and we are the primary beneficiary.  We are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We generally do not control a partially owned entity if the entity is not considered a VIE and the approval of all of the partners/members is contractually required with respect to major decisions, such as operating and capital budgets, the sale, exchange or other disposition of real property, the hiring of a chief executive officer, the commencement, compromise or settlement of any lawsuit, legal proceeding or arbitration or the placement of new or additional financing secured by assets of the venture.  We account for investments under the equity method when the requirements for consolidation are not met, and we have significant influence over the operations of the investee. Equity method investments are initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for our share of net income or loss and cash contributions and distributions each period. Investments that do not qualify for consolidation or equity method accounting are accounted for on the cost method. 
 
Investments in partially owned entities are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the carrying amount of an investment over its estimated fair value.  Impairment analyses are based on current plans, intended holding periods and available information at the time the analyses are prepared.  In the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, we recognized non-cash impairment losses on investments in partially owned entities aggregating $85,459,000 and $281,098,000, respectively.  Included in these amounts are $75,196,000 and $240,757,000 of impairment losses related to our investment in Toys in 2014 and 2013, respectively.  
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents:   Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities.  The majority of our cash and cash equivalents consists of (i) deposits at major commercial banks, which may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit, (ii) United States Treasury Bills, and (iii) Certificate of Deposits placed through an Account Registry Service (“CDARS”).  To date, we have not experienced any losses on our invested cash.
 
Restricted Cash:   Restricted cash consists of security deposits, cash restricted for the purposes of facilitating a Section 1031 Like-Kind exchange, cash restricted in connection with our deferred compensation plan and cash escrowed under loan agreements for debt service, real estate taxes, property insurance and capital improvements.   
 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:   We periodically evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of tenants to make required payments under the lease agreements. We also maintain an allowance for receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents. This receivable arises from earnings recognized in excess of amounts currently due under the lease agreements. Management exercises judgment in establishing these allowances and considers payment history and current credit status in developing these estimates.  As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, we had $11,908,000 and $12,210,000, respectively, in allowances for doubtful accounts. In addition, as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, we had $2,751,000 and $3,188,000, respectively, in allowances for receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents.

Deferred Charges: Direct financing costs are deferred and amortized over the terms of the related agreements as a component of interest expense. Direct costs related to successful leasing activities are capitalized and amortized on a straight line basis over the lives of the related leases. All other deferred charges are amortized on a straight line basis, which approximates the effective interest rate method, in accordance with the terms of the agreements to which they relate.
 
Revenue Recognition:   We have the following revenue sources and revenue recognition policies:
•      Base Rent — income arising from tenant leases. These rents are recognized over the non-cancelable term of the related leases on a straight-line basis which includes the effects of rent steps and rent abatements under the leases.  We commence rental revenue recognition when the tenant takes possession of the leased space and the leased space is substantially ready for its intended use.  In addition, in circumstances where we provide a tenant improvement allowance for improvements that are owned by the tenant, we recognize the allowance as a reduction of rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
 
•      Percentage Rent — income arising from retail tenant leases that is contingent upon tenant sales exceeding defined thresholds. These rents are recognized only after the contingency has been removed (i.e., when tenant sales thresholds have been achieved).
 
•      Hotel Revenue — income arising from the operation of the Hotel Pennsylvania which consists of rooms revenue, food and beverage revenue, and banquet revenue. Income is recognized when rooms are occupied. Food and beverage and banquet revenue is recognized when the services have been rendered.
 
•      Trade Shows Revenue — income arising from the operation of trade shows, including rentals of booths. This revenue is recognized when the trade shows have occurred.
 
•      Expense Reimbursements — revenue arising from tenant leases which provide for the recovery of all or a portion of the operating expenses and real estate taxes of the respective property. This revenue is accrued in the same periods as the expenses are incurred.
 
•      Management, Leasing and Other Fees — income arising from contractual agreements with third parties or with partially owned entities. This revenue is recognized as the related services are performed under the respective agreements.
 
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities:  ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging , as amended, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, our derivative instruments consisted of two and one interest rate swaps, respectively.  We record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.
 
For derivatives designated as fair value hedges, changes in the fair value of the derivative and the hedged item related to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (loss) (outside of earnings) and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings, and the ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings. We assess the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in fair value or cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in fair value or cash flows of the designated hedged item or transaction. For derivatives not designated as hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings.

Income Taxes: As a limited partnership, our partners are required to report their respective share of taxable income on their individual tax returns. The provision for income taxes in our consolidated financial statements relate to certain taxable REIT subsidiaries pursuant to an amendment to the Internal Revenue Code that became effective January 1, 2001.  Taxable REIT subsidiaries may participate in non-real estate related activities and/or perform non-customary services for tenants and are subject to Federal and State income tax at regular corporate tax rates. Our taxable REIT subsidiaries had a combined current income tax expense of approximately $8,322,000, $10,777,000 and $9,608,000 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and have immaterial differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities. 
 
At December 31, 2015 and 2014, our taxable REIT subsidiaries had deferred tax assets related to net operating loss carryforwards of $97,104,000 and $94,100,000, respectively, which are included in “other assets” on our consolidated balance sheets.  Prior to the quarter ended June 30, 2015, there was a full valuation allowance against these deferred tax assets because we had not determined that it is more-likely-than-not that we would use the net operating loss carryforwards to offset future taxable income.  In our quarter ended June 30, 2015, based upon residential condominium unit sales, among other factors, we concluded that it was more-likely-than-not that we will generate sufficient taxable income to realize these deferred tax assets.  Accordingly, we reversed $90,030,000 of the allowance for deferred tax assets and recognized an income tax benefit in our consolidated statements of income.

3.     Real Estate Fund Investments
 
We are the general partner and investment manager of Vornado Capital Partners Real Estate Fund (the “Fund”), which has an eight-year term and a three-year investment period that ended in July 2013. During the investment period, the Fund was our exclusive investment vehicle for all investments that fit within its investment parameters, as defined. The Fund is accounted for under ASC 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies (“ASC 946”) and its investments are reported on its balance sheet at fair value, with changes in value each period recognized in earnings. We consolidate the accounts of the Fund into our consolidated financial statements, retaining the fair value basis of accounting.
 
On June 26, 2014, the Fund sold its 64.7% interest in One Park Avenue to a newly formed joint venture that we and an institutional investor own 55% and 45%, respectively.  This transaction was based on a property value of $560,000,000.  From the inception of this investment through its disposition, the Fund realized a $75,529,000 net gain.
 
On August 21, 2014, the Fund and its 50% joint venture partner completed the sale of The Shops at Georgetown Park, a 305,000 square foot retail property, for $272,500,000. From the inception of this investment through its disposition, the Fund realized a $51,124,000 net gain.
 
On January 20, 2015, we co-invested with the Fund and one of the Fund’s limited partners to buy out the Fund’s joint venture partner’s 57% interest in the Crowne Plaza Times Square Hotel (the “Co-Investment”).  The purchase price for the 57% interest was approximately $95,000,000 (our share $39,000,000) which valued the property at approximately $480,000,000.  The property is encumbered by a $310,000,000 mortgage loan bearing interest at LIBOR plus 2.80% and maturing in December 2018 with a one-year extension option.   Our aggregate ownership interest in the property increased to 33% from 11%.  The Co-Investment is also accounted for under ASC 946 and is included as a component of “real estate fund investments” on our consolidated balance sheet.

5.    Marketable Securities and Derivative Instruments 

Our portfolio of marketable securities is comprised of equity securities that are classified as available-for-sale.  Available-for-sale securities are presented on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value.  Unrealized gains and losses resulting from the mark-to-market of these securities are included in “other comprehensive income (loss).”  Realized gains and losses are recognized in earnings only upon the sale of the securities and are recorded based on the weighted average cost of such securities.
 
We evaluate our portfolio of marketable securities for impairment each reporting period.  For each of the securities in our portfolio with unrealized losses, we review the underlying cause of the decline in value and the estimated recovery period, as well as the severity and duration of the decline.  In our evaluation, we consider our ability and intent to hold these investments for a reasonable period of time sufficient for us to recover our cost basis.  We also evaluate the near-term prospects for each of these investments in relation to the severity and duration of the decline.

6.    Investments in Partially Owned Entities

Toys “R” Us (“Toys”)
As of December 31, 2015, we own 32.5% of Toys.  We account for our investment in Toys under the equity method and record our share of Toys’ net income or loss on a one-quarter lag basis because Toys’ fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest January 31, and our fiscal year ends on December 31.  The business of Toys is highly seasonal and substantially all of Toys’ net income is generated in its fourth quarter. 
 
We have not guaranteed any of Toys’ obligations and are not committed to provide any support to Toys.  Pursuant to ASC 323-10-35-20, we discontinued applying the equity method for our Toys’ investment when the carrying amount was reduced to zero in the third quarter of 2014.  We will resume application of the equity method if, during the period the equity method was suspended, our share of unrecognized net income exceeds our share of unrecognized net losses.
 
In the first quarter of 2014, we recognized our share of Toys’ fourth quarter net income of $75,196,000 and a corresponding non-cash impairment loss of the same amount.  In 2013, we recognized $240,757,000 of non-cash impairment losses based on an “other-than-temporary” decline in the fair value of our investment.

Alexander’s, Inc. (“Alexander’s”) (NYSE: ALX)
 
As of December 31, 2015, we own 1,654,068 Alexander’s common shares, or approximately 32.4% of Alexander’s common equity.  We manage, lease and develop Alexander’s properties pursuant to agreements which expire in March of each year and are automatically renewable.
 
As of December 31, 2015 the market value (“fair value” pursuant to ASC 820) of our investment in Alexander’s, based on Alexander’s December 31, 2015 closing share price of $384.11, was $635,345,000, or $501,777,000 in excess of the carrying amount on our consolidated balance sheet.  As of December 31, 2015, the carrying amount of our investment in Alexander’s, excluding amounts owed to us, exceeds our share of the equity in the net assets of Alexander’s by approximately $40,340,000.  The majority of this basis difference resulted from the excess of our purchase price for the Alexander’s common stock acquired over the book value of Alexander’s net assets.  Substantially all of this basis difference was allocated, based on our estimates of the fair values of Alexander’s assets and liabilities, to real estate (land and buildings).  We are amortizing the basis difference related to the buildings into earnings as additional depreciation expense over their estimated useful lives.  This depreciation is not material to our share of equity in Alexander’s net income.  The basis difference related to the land will be recognized upon disposition of our investment.
 
Management, Leasing and Development Agreements
 
We receive an annual fee for managing Alexander’s and all of its properties equal to the sum of (i) $2,800,000, (ii) 2% of the 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.  In addition, we are entitled to a development fee of 6% of development costs, as defined.
 
We provide Alexander’s 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 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 Alexander’s tenants.  In the event third-party real estate brokers are used, our fee increases by 1% and we are responsible for the fees to the third-parties.  We are also entitled to a commission upon the sale of any of Alexander’s 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.
 
On December 22, 2014, the leasing agreements with Alexander’s were amended to eliminate the annual installment cap of $4,000,000.  In addition, Alexander’s repaid to us the outstanding balance of $40,353,000.
 
On January 15, 2015, we completed the spin-off of 79 strip shopping centers, three malls, a warehouse park and $225,000,000 of cash to UE and the transfer of all of the employees responsible for the management and leasing of those assets.   In addition, we entered into agreements with UE to provide management and leasing services, on our behalf, for Alexander’s Rego Park retail assets.   Fees for these services are similar to the fees we are receiving from Alexander’s described above.

Urban Edge Properties (“UE”) (NYSE: UE)
 
As part of our spin-off of substantially all of our retail segment to UE on January 15, 2015 (see Note 1 – Organization and Business ), we retained 5,717,184 UE operating partnership units, representing a 5.4% ownership interest in UE.  We account for our investment in UE under the equity method and record our share of UE’s net income or loss on a one-quarter lag basis.  We are providing transition services to UE for an initial period of up to two years, primarily for information technology support.  UE is providing us with leasing and property management services for (i) certain small retail properties that we plan to sell, and (ii) our affiliate, Alexander’s, Rego Park retail assets.  As of December 31, 2015, the fair value of our investment in UE, based on UE’s December 31, 2015 closing share price of $23.45, was $134,068,000, or $108,717,000 in excess of the carrying amount on our consolidated balance sheet.

Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust (“PREIT”) (NYSE: PEI)
 
On March 31, 2015, we transferred the redeveloped Springfield Town Center, a 1,350,000 square foot mall located in Springfield, Fairfax County, Virginia, to PREIT Associates, L.P., which is the operating partnership of PREIT, in exchange for $485,313,000; comprised of $340,000,000 of cash and 6,250,000 PREIT operating partnership units (valued at $145,313,000 or $23.25 per PREIT unit) (See Note 7 – Dispositions ).  $19,000,000 of tenant improvements and allowances was credited to PREIT as a closing adjustment.  As a result of this transaction, we own an 8.1% interest in PREIT.  We account for our investment in PREIT under the equity method and record our share of PREIT’s net income or loss on a one-quarter lag basis.  As of December 31, 2015, the fair value of our investment in PREIT, based on PREIT’s December 31, 2015 closing share price of $21.87, was $136,688,000, or $3,313,000 in excess of the carrying amount on our consolidated balance sheet.  As of December 31, 2015, the carrying amount of our investment in PREIT exceeds our share of the equity in the net assets of PREIT by approximately $65,404,000.  The majority of this basis difference resulted from the excess of the fair value of the PREIT operating units received over our share of the book value of PREIT’s net assets.  Substantially all of this basis difference was allocated, based on our estimates of the fair values of PREIT’s assets and liabilities, to real estate (land and buildings).  We are amortizing the basis difference related to the buildings into earnings as additional depreciation expense over their estimated useful lives.  This depreciation is not material to our share of equity in PREIT’s net loss.  The basis difference related to the land will be recognized upon disposition of our investment.

512 West 22 nd Street
 
On June 24, 2015, we entered into a joint venture, in which we own a 55% interest, to develop a 173,000 square foot Class-A office building, located along the western edge of the High Line at 512 West 22nd Street. The development cost of this project is approximately $235,000,000.

Unsecured Term Loan
 
On October 30, 2015, we entered into an unsecured delayed-draw term loan facility in the maximum amount of $750,000,000.  The facility matures in October 2018 with two one-year extension options.  The interest rate is LIBOR plus 1.15% (1.40% at December 31, 2015) with a fee of 0.20% per annum on the unused portion.  At closing, we drew $187,500,000.  The facility provides that the maximum amount available is twice the amount outstanding on April 29, 2016, limited to $750,000,000, and all draws must be made by October 2017.  This facility, together with the $950,000,000 development loan mentioned above, provides the funding for our 220 Central Park South development.

10.    Redeemable Partnership Units
 
Redeemable partnership units on our consolidated balance sheets are primarily comprised of Class A units held by third parties and  are recorded at the greater of their carrying amount or redemption value at the end of each reporting period.  Changes in the value from period to period are charged to “partners’ capital” on our consolidated balance sheets.  Class A units may be tendered for redemption to us for cash; Vornado, at its option, may assume that obligation and pay the holder either cash or Vornado common shares on a one-for-one basis.  Because the number of Vornado common shares outstanding at all times equals the number of Class A units owned by Vornado, the redemption value of each Class A unit is equivalent to the market value of one Vornado common share, and the quarterly distribution to a Class A unitholder is equal to the quarterly dividend paid to a Vornado common shareholder.

Redeemable partnership units exclude our Series G-1 through G-4 convertible preferred units and Series D-13 cumulative redeemable preferred units, as they are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities and Equity , because of their possible settlement by issuing a variable number of Vornado common shares.  Accordingly, the fair value of these units is included as a component of “other liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheets and aggregated $50,561,000 and $55,097,000 as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  Changes in the value from period to period, if any, are charged to “interest and debt expense” on our consolidated statements of income.

Class A units
 
As of December 31, 2015, there were 188,576,853 Class A units outstanding that were held by Vornado. These units are classified as “partners’ capital” on our consolidated balance sheets.  As of December 31, 2015, there were 12,242,820 Class A units outstanding, that were held by third parties.  These units are classified outside of “partners’ capital” as “redeemable partnership units” on our consolidated balance sheets (See Note 10 – Redeemable Partnership Units).  During 2015, we paid an aggregate of $474,751,000 of distributions to Vornado comprised of quarterly common distributions of $0.63 per unit.

13.  Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820 defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value.  The objective of fair value is to determine the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (the exit price).   ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 – observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 – unobservable inputs that are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as consider counterparty credit risk in our assessment of fair value.  Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret Level 2 and 3 inputs in determining the fair value of our financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.  Accordingly, our fair value estimates, which are made at the end of each reporting period, may be different than the amounts that may ultimately be realized upon sale or disposition of these assets.   
 
Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
 
Financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets consist of (i) marketable securities, (ii) real estate fund investments, (iii) the assets in our deferred compensation plan (for which there is a corresponding liability on our consolidated balance sheet), (iv) mandatorily redeemable instruments (Series G-1 through G-4 convertible preferred units and Series D-13 cumulative redeemable preferred units), and (v) interest rate swaps.  The tables below aggregate the fair values of these financial assets and liabilities by their levels in the fair value hierarchy at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Real Estate Fund Investments
 
At December 31, 2015, we had six real estate fund investments with an aggregate fair value of $574,761,000, or $208,614,000 in excess of cost.  These investments are classified as Level 3.  We use a discounted cash flow valuation technique to estimate the fair value of each of these investments, which is updated quarterly by personnel responsible for the management of each investment and reviewed by senior management at each reporting period.  The discounted cash flow valuation technique requires us to estimate cash flows for each investment over the anticipated holding period, which currently ranges from 1.0 to 5.0 years.  Cash flows are derived from property rental revenue (base rents plus reimbursements) less operating expenses, real estate taxes and capital and other costs, plus projected sales proceeds in the year of exit.  Property rental revenue is based on leases currently in place and our estimates for future leasing activity, which are based on current market rents for similar space plus a projected growth factor.  Similarly, estimated operating expenses and real estate taxes are based on amounts incurred in the current period plus a projected growth factor for future periods.  Anticipated sales proceeds at the end of an investment’s expected holding period are determined based on the net cash flow of the investment in the year of exit, divided by a terminal capitalization rate, less estimated selling costs. 
 
The fair value of each property is calculated by discounting the future cash flows (including the projected sales proceeds), using an appropriate discount rate and then reduced by the property’s outstanding debt, if any, to determine the fair value of the equity in each investment. Significant unobservable quantitative inputs used in determining the fair value of each investment include capitalization rates and discount rates.  These rates are based on the location, type and nature of each property, and current and anticipated market conditions, industry publications and from the experience of our Acquisitions and Capital Markets departments.  Significant unobservable quantitative inputs in the table below were utilized in determining the fair value of these real estate fund investments at December 31, 2015.    

 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	Weighted Average	 	
 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	(based on fair	 	
 	Unobservable Quantitative Input	 	Range	 	value of investments)	 	
 	 	Discount rates	 	12.0% to 14.9%	 	13.6%	 	
 	 	Terminal capitalization rates	 	4.8% to 6.1%	 	5.5%	 	
 
The above inputs are subject to change based on changes in economic and market conditions and/or changes in use or timing of exit.  Changes in discount rates and terminal capitalization rates result in increases or decreases in the fair values of these investments.  The discount rates encompass, among other things, uncertainties in the valuation models with respect to terminal capitalization rates and the amount and timing of cash flows.  Therefore, a change in the fair value of these investments resulting from a change in the terminal capitalization rate, may be partially offset by a change in the discount rate.  It is not possible for us to predict the effect of future economic or market conditions on our estimated fair values.
 
The table below summarizes the changes in the fair value of real estate fund investments that are classified as Level 3, for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

Deferred Compensation Plan Assets
 
Deferred compensation plan assets that are classified as Level 3 consist of investments in limited partnerships and investment funds, which are managed by third parties.  We receive quarterly financial reports from a third-party administrator, which are compiled from the quarterly reports provided to them from each limited partnership and investment fund.  The quarterly reports provide net asset values on a fair value basis which are audited by independent public accounting firms on an annual basis.  The third-party administrator does not adjust these values in determining our share of the net assets and we do not adjust these values when reported in our consolidated financial statements.

13.  Fair Value Measurements – continued

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 (primarily money market funds, which invest in obligations of the United States government), mezzanine loan receivable and our secured and unsecured debt.  Estimates of the fair value of these instruments are determined by the standard practice of modeling the contractual cash flows required under the instrument and discounting them back to their present value at the appropriate current risk adjusted interest rate, which is provided by a third-party specialist.  For floating rate debt, we use forward rates derived from observable market yield curves to project the expected cash flows we would be required to make under the instrument.  The fair value of cash equivalents and borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facilities and unsecured term loan are classified as Level 1, and the fair value of our mezzanine loan receivable as of December 31, 2014 is classified as Level 3.  There are no mezzanine loans outstanding as of December 31, 2015.  The fair value of our secured and unsecured debt is classified as Level 2.  The table below summarizes the carrying amounts and fair value of these financial instruments as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.

14.    Stock-based Compensation
 
Vornado’s Omnibus Share Plan (the “Plan”), which was approved in May 2010, provides the Compensation Committee of Vornado’s Board of Trustees (the “Committee”) the ability to grant incentive and non-qualified Vornado stock options, restricted stock, restricted partnership units and out-performance plan awards to certain of Vornado’s employees and officers.  Under the Plan, awards may be granted up to a maximum of 6,000,000 Vornado shares, if all awards granted are Full Value Awards, as defined, and up to 12,000,000 shares, if all of the awards granted are Not Full Value Awards, as defined, plus shares in respect of awards forfeited after May 2010 that were issued pursuant to Vornado’s 2002 Omnibus Share Plan.  Full Value Awards are awards of securities, such as Vornado restricted shares, that, if all vesting requirements are met, do not require the payment of an exercise price or strike price to acquire the securities.  Not Full Value Awards are awards of securities, such as Vornado stock options, that do require the payment of an exercise price or strike price.  This means, for example, if the Committee were to award only Vornado restricted shares, it could award up to 6,000,000 Vornado restricted shares.  On the other hand, if the Committee were to award only Vornado stock options, it could award options to purchase up to 12,000,000 Vornado common shares (at the applicable exercise price).  The Committee may also issue any combination of awards under the Plan, with reductions in availability of future awards made in accordance with the above limitations.  As of December 31, 2015, Vornado has approximately 3,570,000 shares available for future grants under the Plan, if all awards granted are Full Value Awards, as defined.
 
In the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, we recognized an aggregate of $39,846,000, $36,641,000 and $34,914,000, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense, which is included as a component of “general and administrative” expenses on our consolidated statements of income.  The year ended December 31, 2015 includes $7,834,000 from the acceleration of the recognition of compensation expense related to 2013-2015 Out-Performance Plans due to the modification of the vesting criteria of awards such that they will fully vest at age 65. The accelerated expense will result in lower general and administrative expense for 2016 of $3,679,000 and $4,155,000 thereafter.  The details of the various components of our stock-based compensation are discussed below.
 
Out-Performance Plans (“the OPPs”)
 
OPPs are multi-year, performance-based equity compensation plans under which participants, including Vornado’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, have the opportunity to earn compensation payable in the form of units of Vornado Realty L.P. if, and only if, Vornado outperforms a predetermined total shareholder return (“TSR”) and/or outperforms the market with respect to a relative TSR in any year during the requisite performance periods as described below.  OPP units, if earned, become convertible into Class A units (and ultimately into Vornado common shares) following vesting.
 
Awards under the 2012 and 2013 OPP have been earned.  Awards under the 2014 and 2015 OPP may be earned if Vornado (i) achieves a TSR level greater than 7% per annum, or 21% over the three-year performance measurement periods (the “Absolute Component”), and/or (ii) achieves a TSR above that of the Index over the three-year performance measurement periods (the “Relative Component”).  To the extent awards would be earned under the Absolute Component of each of the OPPs, but Vornado underperforms the Index, such awards would be reduced (and potentially fully negated) based on the degree to which Vornado underperforms the Index.  In certain circumstances, in the event Vornado outperforms the Index but awards would not otherwise be fully earned under the Absolute Component, awards may still be earned or increased under the Relative Component.  To the extent awards would otherwise be earned under the Relative Component but Vornado fails to achieve at least a 6% per annum absolute TSR, such awards earned under the Relative Component would be reduced based on our absolute TSR, with no awards being earned in the event Vornado’s TSR during the applicable measurement period is 0% or negative, irrespective of the degree to which Vornado may outperform the Index.  Distributions on awards earned accrue during the performance period.
 
If the designated performance objectives are achieved, OPP units are also subject to time-based vesting requirements. Awards earned under the OPPs vest 33% in year three, 33% in year four and 34% in year five.  Vornado’s executive officers (for the purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act) are required to hold earned 2013, 2014 and 2015 OPP awards for one year following vesting. 
 
Below is the summary of the OPP units earned through December 31, 2015 and the aggregate grant date notional and fair values.
 	 	 	 	 	 	 	   	 	 	
Plan Year	 	Notional Amount	 	Grant-Date Fair Value (1)	 	OPP Units Earned	
2015 	 	$	 40,000,000 	 	$	 9,120,000 	 	To be determined in 2017	
2014 	 	 	 50,000,000 	 	 	 8,202,000 	 	To be determined in 2016	
2013 	 	 	 40,000,000 	 	 	 6,814,000 	 	85,420 	
2012 	 	 	 40,000,000 	 	 	 12,250,000 	 	303,202 	

(1)	Such amounts are being amortized into expense over a five-year period from the date of grant, using a graded vesting attribution model.  In the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, we recognized $15,531,000, $6,185,000 and $3,226,000, respectively, of compensation expense related to OPPs.  As of December 31, 2015, there was $5,087,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the OPPs, which will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years.

19.  Leases
As lessor:
We lease space to tenants under operating leases. Most of the leases provide for the payment of fixed base rentals payable monthly in advance. Office building leases generally require the tenants to reimburse us for operating costs and real estate taxes above their base year costs. Shopping center leases provide for pass-through to tenants the tenant’s share of real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance. Shopping center leases also provide for the payment by the lessee of additional rent based on a percentage of the tenants’ sales. As of December 31, 2015, future base rental revenue under non-cancelable operating leases, excluding rents for leases with an original term of less than one year and rents resulting from the exercise of renewal options, are as follows:

 	(Amounts in thousands)	 	 	 	
 	Year Ending December 31:	 	 	 	
 	2016 	$	1,633,615 	 	
 	2017 	 	1,686,056 	 	
 	2018 	 	1,644,440 	 	
 	2019 	 	1,496,805 	 	
 	2020 	 	1,349,724 	 	
 	Thereafter	 	8,103,382 	 	
 
These amounts do not include percentage rentals based on tenants’ sales.  These percentage rents approximated $5,760,000, $6,343,000 and $7,344,000, for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
 
None of our tenants accounted for more than 10% of total revenues in any of the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.

As lessee:           
We are a tenant under operating leases for certain properties.  These leases have terms that expire during the next thirty years.  Future minimum lease payments under operating leases at December 31, 2015 are as follows: 

 	(Amounts in thousands)  	 	 	 	
 	Year Ending December 31:	 	 	 	
 	2016 	$	33,265 	 	
 	2017 	 	34,831

 	2020 	 	36,353 	 	
 	Thereafter	 	1,557,541 	 	
 
Rent expense was $38,887,000, $36,315,000 and $35,913,000 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

19.  Leases - continued
We are also a lessee under a capital lease under which we will redevelop the retail and signage components of the Marriott Marquis Times Square Hotel.  The lease has put/call options, which if exercised would lead to our ownership.  Capitalized leases are recorded at the present value of future minimum lease payments or the fair market value of the property.  Capitalized leases are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the asset or life of the related lease.  Depreciation expense on capital leases is included in “depreciation and amortization” on our consolidated statements of income.  As of December 31, 2015, future minimum lease payments under this capital lease are as follows:

 	(Amounts in thousands)	 	 	 	
 	Year Ending December 31:	 	 	 	
 	2016 	$	 12,500 	 	
 	2017 	 	 12,500 	 	
 	2018 	 	 12,500 	 	
 	2019 	 	 12,500 	 	
 	2020 	 	 12,500 	 	
 	Thereafter	 	 322,292 	 	
 	Total minimum obligations	 	 384,792 	 	
 	Interest portion	 	 (144,792)	 	
 	Present value of net minimum payments	$	 240,000 	 	
 
At December 31, 2015, the gross carrying amount of the property leased under the capital lease was $424,369,000, which is a component of “buildings and improvements” on our consolidated balance sheet.

20.  Multiemployer Benefit Plans
 
Our subsidiaries make contributions to certain multiemployer defined benefit plans (“Multiemployer Pension Plans”) and health plans (“Multiemployer Health Plans”) for our union represented employees, pursuant to the respective collective bargaining agreements.
 
Multiemployer Pension Plans
 
Multiemployer Pension Plans differ from single-employer pension plans in that (i) contributions to multiemployer plans may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers and (ii) if other participating employers fail to make their contributions, each of our participating subsidiaries may be required to bear its then pro rata share of unfunded obligations.  If a participating subsidiary withdraws from a plan in which it participates, it may be subject to a withdrawal liability.  As of December 31, 2015, our subsidiaries’ participation in these plans was not significant to our consolidated financial statements.
 
In the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, our subsidiaries contributed $10,878,000, $11,431,000 and $10,223,000, respectively, towards Multiemployer Pension Plans, which is included as a component of “operating” expenses on our consolidated statements of income.  Our subsidiaries’ contributions did not represent more than 5% of total employer contributions in any of these plans for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.
 
Multiemployer Health Plans
 
Multiemployer Health Plans in which our subsidiaries participate provide health benefits to eligible active and retired employees.  In the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, our subsidiaries contributed $29,269,000, $29,073,000 and $26,262,000, respectively, towards these plans, which is included as a component of “operating” expenses on our consolidated statements of income.

21.  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 with limits of $2.0 billion per occurrence, with sub-limits for certain perils such as flood and earthquake. Our California properties have earthquake insurance with coverage of $180,000,000 per occurrence and in the annual aggregate, subject to a deductible in the amount of 5% of the value of the affected property. We maintain coverage for terrorism acts with limits of $4.0 billion per occurrence and in the aggregate, and $2.0 billion per occurrence and in the aggregate for terrorism involving nuclear, biological, chemical and radiological (“NBCR”) terrorism events, as defined by Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015, which expires in December 2020.
 
Penn Plaza Insurance Company, LLC (“PPIC”), our wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, acts as a re-insurer with respect to a portion of all risk property and rental value insurance and a portion of our earthquake insurance coverage, and as a direct insurer for coverage for acts of terrorism including NBCR acts. Coverage for acts of terrorism (excluding NBCR acts) is fully reinsured by third party insurance companies and the Federal government with no exposure to PPIC. For NBCR acts, PPIC is responsible for a deductible of $3,200,000 ($2,400,000 effective January 1, 2016) per occurrence and 15% of the balance of a covered loss (16% effective January 1, 2016) and the Federal government is responsible for the remaining 85% of a covered loss (84% effective January 1, 2016). We are ultimately responsible for any loss incurred by PPIC.
 
We continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism.  However, we cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future.
 
Our debt instruments, consisting of mortgage loans secured by our properties which are non-recourse to us, senior unsecured notes and revolving credit agreements contain customary covenants requiring us to maintain insurance. Although we believe that we have adequate insurance coverage for purposes of these agreements, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. Further, if lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain it could adversely affect our ability to finance our properties and expand our portfolio.

Other Commitments and Contingencies
 
We are from time to time involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
Each of our properties has been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment at various times. The environmental assessments did not reveal any material environmental contamination. However, there can be no assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites, or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant costs to us.
 
Our mortgage loans are non-recourse to us.  However, in certain cases we have provided guarantees or master leased tenant space.  These guarantees and master leases terminate either upon the satisfaction of specified circumstances or repayment of the underlying loans.  As of December 31, 2015, the aggregate dollar amount of these guarantees and master leases is approximately $427,000,000.
 
At December 31, 2015, $38,096,000 of letters of credit were outstanding under one of our unsecured revolving credit facilities.  Our unsecured revolving credit facilities contain financial covenants that require us to maintain minimum interest coverage and maximum debt to market capitalization ratios, and provide for higher interest rates in the event of a decline in our ratings below Baa3/BBB. Our unsecured revolving credit facilities also contain customary conditions precedent to borrowing, including representations and warranties, and also contain customary events of default that could give rise to accelerated repayment, including such items as failure to pay interest or principal.
 
As of December 31, 2015, w e expect to fund additional capital to certain of our partially owned entities aggregating approximately $70,000,000.
 
As of December 31, 2015, we have construction commitments aggregating $873,800,000.

22.  Related Party Transactions
 
Alexander’s
 
We own 32.4% of Alexander’s. Steven Roth, the Chairman of Vornado’s Board of Trustees and its Chief Executive Officer is also the Chairman of Alexander’s Board of Directors and its Chief Executive Officer.  We provide various services to Alexander’s in accordance with management, development and leasing agreements.  These agreements are described in Note 6 - Investments in Partially Owned Entities .
 
On January 15, 2015, we completed the spin-off of 79 strip shopping centers, three malls, a warehouse park and $225,000,000 of cash to UE and the transfer of all of the employees responsible for the management and leasing of those assets.   In addition, we entered into agreements with UE to provide management and leasing services, on our behalf, for Alexander’s Rego Park retail assets.   Fees for these services are similar to the fees we are receiving from Alexander’s as described in Note 6 - Investments in Partially Owned Entities .

Interstate Properties (“Interstate”)
 
Interstate is a general partnership in which Mr. Roth is the managing general partner. David Mandelbaum and Russell B. Wight, Jr., Trustees of Vornado and Directors of Alexander’s, are Interstate’s two other general partners. As of December 31, 2015, Interstate and its partners beneficially owned an aggregate of approximately 7.1% of the common shares of beneficial interest of Vornado and 26.3% of Alexander’s common stock.
 
We manage and lease the real estate assets of Interstate pursuant to a management agreement for which we receive an annual fee equal to 4% of annual base rent and percentage rent.  The management agreement has a term of one year and is automatically renewable unless terminated by either of the parties on 60 days’ notice at the end of the term.  We believe, based upon comparable fees charged by other real estate companies, that the management agreement terms are fair to us.  We earned $541,000, $535,000, and $606,000 of management fees under the agreement for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.

24.    Segment Information
 
As a result of the spin-off of substantially all of our Retail Properties segment (see Note 7 – Dispositions ), the remaining retail properties no longer meet the criteria to be a separate reportable segment.  In addition, as a result of our investment in Toys being reduced to zero, we suspended equity method accounting for our investment in Toys (see Note 6 – Investments in Partially Owned Entities ) and the Toys segment no longer meets the criteria to be a separate reportable segment.  Accordingly, effective January 1, 2015, the Retail Properties segment and Toys have been reclassified to the Other segment. Below is a summary of net income and a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA (1) by segment for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.

 (1)	EBITDA represents "Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization."  We consider EBITDA a non-GAAP financial measure for making decisions and assessing the unlevered performance of our segments as it relates to the total return on assets as opposed to the levered return on equity. As properties are bought and sold based on a multiple of EBITDA, we utilize this measure to make investment decisions as well as to compare the performance of our assets to that of our peers. EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

25.  Subsequent Events
 
2016 Out-Performance Plan
 
On January 14, 2016, the Committee approved the 2016 Outperformance Plan, a multi-year, performance-based equity compensation plan and related form of award agreement (the “2016 OPP”).  Awards under the 2016 OPP constitute awards under Vornado’s shareholder approved 2010 Omnibus Share Plan.  Under the 2016 OPP, participants, including Vornado’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, have the opportunity to earn compensation payable in the form of Vornado Realty L.P. units if, and only if, Vornado outperforms a predetermined total shareholder return (“TSR”) and/or outperforms the market with respect to relative total TSR during a three-year performance period.  Specifically, awards under Vornado’s 2016 OPP may potentially be earned if Vornado (i) achieves a TSR above that of the SNL US REIT Index (the “Index”) over a three-year performance period (the “Relative Component”) and/or (ii) achieves a TSR level greater than 7% per annum, or 21% over the three-year performance period (the “Absolute Component”).  To the extent awards would be earned under the Absolute Component but Vornado underperforms the Index, such awards earned under the Absolute Component would be reduced (and potentially fully negated) based on the degree to which Vornado underperforms the Index.  In certain circumstances, in the event Vornado outperforms the Index but awards would not otherwise be earned under the Absolute Component, awards may still be earned under the Relative Component.  Moreover, to the extent awards would otherwise be earned under the Relative Component but Vornado fails to achieve at least a 3% per annum absolute TSR, such awards earned under the Relative Component would be reduced based on Vornado’s absolute TSR performance, with no awards being earned in the event Vornado’s TSR during the applicable measurement period is 0% or negative, irrespective of the degree to which Vornado may outperform the Index.  If the designated performance objectives are achieved, OPP Units are also subject to time-based vesting requirements.  Distributions on awards earned accrue during the performance period and are paid to participants if, and only if, awards are ultimately earned based on the achievement of the designated performance objectives.  In addition, all of Vornado’s executive officers (for the purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act) are required to hold any earned OPP Units for one year following vesting.
 
770 Broadway Refinancing
 
On February 8, 2016, we completed a $700,000,000 refinancing of 770 Broadway, a 1,158,000 square foot Manhattan office building.  The five-year loan is interest-only at LIBOR plus 1.75% (2.18% at February 11, 2016) which was swapped for four and a half years to a fixed rate of 2.56%.  We realized net proceeds of approximately $330,000,000.  The property was previously encumbered by a 5.65%, $353,000,000 mortgage maturing in March 2016.

ITEM 9A.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures:  Vornado’s management, with the participation of Vornado’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a‑15 (e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K. Based on such evaluation, Vornado’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
 
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting:  There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
 
Management of Vornado Realty Trust, sole general partner of Vornado Realty L.P., together with Vornado Realty L.P.’s consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”), is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of Vornado’s principal executive and principal financial officers to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
As of December 31, 2015, management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management has determined that our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015 was effective.
 
Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets; provide reasonable assurances that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and Vornado’s trustees; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
 
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015 has been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report appearing on page 138, which expresses an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Partners and the Board of Trustees of Vornado Realty Trust
Vornado Realty L.P.
New York, New York
 
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Vornado Realty L.P. and consolidated subsidiaries (the “Partnership”) as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management of Vornado Realty Trust, sole general partner of the Partnership, is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting . Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of trustees, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and trustees of Vornado Realty Trust; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
In our opinion, the Partnership maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
 
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedules as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015 of the Partnership and our report dated February 22, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and financial statement schedules and included an explanatory paragraph regarding the Partnership’s adoption of a new accounting standard.
