ITEM 2.           ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

                  On February 9, 1998, Vornado Realty Trust ("Vornado") closed
         its previously announced acquisition of the long-term leasehold
         interest in One Penn Plaza for approximately $410 million. The
         transaction was financed with proceeds from a $93 million bridge loan,
         $41 million of existing cash and borrowings under the revolving credit
         facility.

                  One Penn Plaza is a 57 story Manhattan office building
         containing approximately 2,350,000 square feet and encompasses
         substantially the entire square block bounded by 33rd Street, 34th
         Street, Seventh Avenue and Eighth Avenue.

                  This transaction was arrived at through an arms-length
         negotiation and was consummated through a subsidiary of Vornado Realty
         L.P., a limited partnership of which Vornado owns 92.4% and is the sole
         general partner.
