Item 8.01.         Other Events.

 

On November 9, 2011, Vornado Realty L.P., the operating partnership through which Vornado Realty Trust (“Vornado”) conducts its business, filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2011 and disclosed on pages 30, 71 and 74 of its Form 10-Q the November 7, 2011 court decision with respect to litigation with Stop & Shop.  Vornado filed its Form 10-Q for this period on November 3, 2011, and therefore its Form 10-Q did not include disclosure regarding the November 7, 2011 decision.  Accordingly, Vornado is updating its disclosure on pages 30, 71 and 75 of its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2011 and reporting that on November 7, 2011, the Court directed entry of a judgment in Vornado’s favor ordering Stop & Shop to pay Vornado a portion of the unpaid rent through September 30, 2011 aggregating $38,880,000, plus interest and attorneys' fees in an amount to be determined.  In addition, the Court determined that Vornado has a continuing right to allocate the annual rent to unexpired leases covered by the Master Agreement and Guaranty.  Stop & Shop is entitled to appeal this decision.
