Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the tender offers, the Securities will be purchased at a purchase price of $1,000 per $1,000 in principal amount of such Securities, in each case validly tendered and accepted for purchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date on which payment is made for the Securities that are purchased pursuant to the tender offers. The tender offers will each expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on December 1, 2009, unless extended by Vornado (the "Expiration Time"). Any such extension will be followed by a public announcement no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first business day after the previously scheduled applicable Expiration Time. Tendered Securities may be withdrawn prior to the applicable Expiration Time.

The tender offers are subject to certain customary conditions described in the Offer to Purchase. The tender offers are not conditioned upon the tender of any minimum principal amount of Securities. Vornado may, subject to applicable law, and as stated in the Offer to Purchase, amend, extend or terminate the tender offers.
