Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) These Common Shares were acquired in connection with the regular quarterly dividend paid by Vornado Realty Trust on September 14, 2009 in the form of cash and Common Shares of Vornado Realty Trust to all holders of Vornado Realty Trust Common Shares.
(2) 123 of these Common Shares were issued as restricted stock and remain unvested under the terms of the Vornado Realty Trust Omnibus Share Plan. Of these 123 Common Shares, (i) 61 Common Shares of restricted stock remain to vest in January of 2010 and (ii) 62 Common Shares of restricted stock remain to vest in January of 2011.
(3) The Class A Units ("Class A Units") of Vornado Realty L.P. were acquired in connection with the regular quarterly distribution paid pro rata on September 14, 2009 by Vornado Realty L.P. to holders of Limited Partnership Units in the form of cash and Class A Units.
(4) Class A Units may be redeemed at the election of the holder, in whole or in part for cash equal to the fair market value, at the time of redemption, of one Common Share for each Class A Unit redeemed or, at the option of Vornado Realty Trust, one such Common Share for each Class A Unit tendered for redemption.
(5) All Class A Units distributed on September 14, 2009 are immediately redeemable (subject to certain limitations set forth in the Vornado Realty L.P.'s limited partnership agreement). Class A Units have no expiration date.
(6) These shares are held by The Mandelbaum Family Holdings, L.P. in which Mr. Mandelbaum is the sole general partner and three qualified trusts are limited partners. The filing of this Form 4 shall not be deemed an admission that Mr. Mandelbaum is the beneficial owner of the shares.
(7) These Common Shares are held in grantor retained annuity trusts. The filing of this Form 4 shall not be deemed an admission that Mr. Mandelbaum is the beneficial owner of the Common Shares.
(8) These Common Shares are held by Interstate Properties, a New Jersey general partnership of which Mr. Mandelbaum is a general partner. The filing of this Form 4 shall not be deemed an admission that Mr. Mandelbaum is the beneficial owner of these 5,591,297 Common Shares, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest. The decline of 11,024 Common Shares held by Interstate Properties since Mr. Mandelbaum's immediately preceding Form 4 filling is attributable to distributions by the partnership of 11,024 Common Shares with respect to which none of these Common Shares were distributed to Mr. Mandelbaum.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.

Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB number.
