NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1997, the consolidated
statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and
June 30, 1996, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996 are unaudited. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and
changes in cash flows have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 1996 Annual Report to
Shareholders. The results of operations for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the
full year.
2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Under a three-year management and development agreement (the "Management
Agreement") with Vornado Realty Trust ("Vornado") which commenced March 2,
1995, Alexander's incurred fees of $938,000 in each of the three months ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996 and $1,875,000 and $3,468,000 in the six months ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996. The fees for the six months ended June 30, 1996,
included $1,443,000 related to the completion of the redevelopment of the
Rego Park I property in the quarter ended March 31, 1996.
In addition to the fee payable pursuant to the Management Agreement, the
Company pays Vornado a leasing fee under the terms of its leasing agreement.
Alexander's incurred leasing fees of $625,000 in each of the three months
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 and $1,250,000 in each of the six months ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996. Vornado is due $5,490,000 at June 30, 1997 under such
agreement, subject to the payment of rents by tenants. The lease which
Vornado had previously negotiated with Caldor on behalf of the Company for
its Fordham Road property was rejected in June 1997 in Caldor's bankruptcy
proceedings, resulting in $1,254,000 of previously recorded leasing fees
payable and $1,507,000 of deferred lease expense being reversed in the
quarter ended June 30, 1997.
In March 1995, the Company borrowed $45,000,000 from Vornado, the
subordinated tranche of a $75,000,000 secured financing. The loan has a
three-year term and presently bears interest at 15.60% (previously bore
interest at 16.43% through March 1997). The Company incurred interest on its
loan from Vornado of $1,775,000 and $1,889,000 in the three months ended June
30, 1997 and 1996, of which $1,250,000 and $1,203,000 were capitalized.
Interest on the loan was $3,626,000 and $3,758,000 in the six months ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996, of which $2,479,000 and $1,857,000 were capitalized.

3. CONTINGENCIES
Paramus Property
The Company owns 39.3 acres of land, including its former store building,
located in Paramus, New Jersey. Approximately 9 acres located on the
property's periphery are subject to condemnation by the State of New Jersey.
Alexander's and the New Jersey Department of Transportation ("DOT") are
negotiating an agreement, pursuant to which the DOT will pay approximately
$14,700,000 for the property subject to condemnation and grant the Company
the right to develop up to 550,000 square feet on the remaining acreage. The
agreement with the DOT is subject to negotiation of final documentation and
to certain municipal approvals.
Environmental Matters
The results of a 1993 Phase I Environmental Study at the Kings Plaza
Shopping Center property ("Center") - a 50% owned joint venture - showed that
certain adjacent properties owned by third parties have experienced
contamination by petroleum hydrocarbons. The Center commissioned a Phase II
Environmental Study and Contamination Assessment/Site Investigation in June
1997 to evaluate and delineate environmental conditions. These additional
reports indicate that the Center is required to engage in remediation
activities at the property due to the presence of petroleum and other
hydrocarbons. Management believes that the remediation will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of
operations.
The Company is aware of the presence of asbestos-containing materials at
several of its properties and believes that it manages such asbestos in
accordance with applicable laws. The Company plans to abate or remove such
asbestos as appropriate.
Caldor Corporation ("Caldor")
Property rentals from Caldor, which filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the
United States Bankruptcy Code in September 1995, represented approximately
29% and 36% of the Company's consolidated revenues for the six months ended
June 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996. Caldor rejected its
Fordham Road lease effective June 6, 1997 and accordingly, no longer pays
rent; Alexander's has filed a claim for damages based on such rejection. The
annual base rental under this lease was $3,537,000 (approximately 15% of the
Company's consolidated revenues). The rejection of the Fordham Road lease and
the loss of property rental payments, if any, under the Caldor lease for the
Flushing property, could have a material adverse affect on the Company's
financial condition and results of operations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Certain statements made in this report may constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995 (the "Reform Act"). Such forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual
results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different
from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by
such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, the
following: general economic and business conditions, which will, among other
things, affect demand for retail space or retail goods, availability and
creditworthiness of prospective tenants, lease rents and the terms and
availability of financing; adverse changes in the real estate markets including,
among other things, competition with other companies and technology; risks of
real estate development and acquisition; governmental actions and initiatives;
and environmental/safety requirements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company's revenues, which consist of property rentals, tenant expense
reimbursements and equity in income of unconsolidated joint venture were
$6,761,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1997, compared to $5,686,000 in the
prior year's quarter, an increase of $1,075,000. Revenues were $12,759,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1997, compared to $10,370,000 for the prior year's
six months, an increase of $2,389,000.
Property rentals were $4,630,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1997 compared
to $4,504,000 in the prior year's quarter, an increase of $126,000. This
increase resulted primarily from leases commencing during the quarter with
Circuit City, Bed Bath & Beyond and Old Navy for the remaining 112,000 square
feet at the Company's Rego Park I property, partially offset by the loss of rent
resulting from Caldor's rejection of its Fordham Road lease. Property rentals
for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $8,850,000 compared to $7,453,000
for the prior year's six months, an increase of $1,397,000. In addition to the
items during the quarter noted above, the increase in the six months reflected
six months of paid parking and rents for 234,000 square feet of the Company's
Rego Park I property, compared to four months in 1996. The Company expects its
property rentals to be adversely affected by the rejection of Caldor's Fordham
Road lease - see Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Tenant expense reimbursements were $803,000 in the quarter ended June 30,
1997, compared to $499,000 the prior year's quarter, an increase of $304,000.
Tenant expense reimbursements for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were
$1,294,000 compared to $967,000 for the prior year's six months, an increase of
$327,000. These increases reflect a corresponding increase in operating expenses
passed through to tenants as a result of six months of operations at the
Company's Rego Park I property this year, compared to four months in 1996.
Equity in income of unconsolidated joint venture ("the Kings Plaza Shopping
Center") was $1,328,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1997, compared to $683,000
in the prior year's quarter, an increase of $645,000. Equity in income of the
Kings Plaza Shopping Center was $2,615,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1997, compared to $1,950,000 in the prior year's six months, an increase of
$665,000. These increases resulted primarily from higher rents.
Operating expenses were $2,265,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1997,
compared to $1,429,000 in the prior year's quarter, an increase of $836,000.
Operating expenses were $3,877,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1997,
compared to $2,453,000 in the prior year's six months, an increase of
$1,424,000. Of these increases, $667,000 was a second quarter charge to bad debt
expense, in connection with Caldor's rejection of its Fordham Road lease, for
the receivable from the straight-lining of rents. The remaining increase of
$757,000 for the six months resulted primarily from six months of operations at
the Rego Park I property this year, compared to four months in 1996.

AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General and administrative expenses were $1,032,000 in the quarter ended June
30, 1997, compared to $1,262,000 in the prior year's quarter, a decrease of
$230,000. General and administrative expenses were $2,013,000 in the six months
ended June 30, 1997 compared to $2,422,000 in the prior year's six months, a
decrease of $409,000. These decreases resulted primarily from lower professional
fees.
Interest and debt expense was $3,311,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1997
compared to $3,419,000 for the prior year's quarter, a decrease of $108,000.
Interest and debt expense was $6,605,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1997
compared to $6,736,000 for the prior year's six months, a decrease of $131,000.
These decreases resulted primarily from more interest expense being capitalized
on redevelopment projects in 1997, offset by interest on the Rego Park I debt
being charged to income this year for six months versus four months last year.
Interest and other income, net was $612,000 in the quarter ended June 30,
1997, compared to $1,033,000 in the prior year's quarter, a decrease of
$421,000. Interest and other income, net was $864,000 in the six months ended
June 30, 1997, compared to $1,655,000 in the prior year's six months, a decrease
of $791,000. These decreases resulted primarily from the amortization of
deferred gains in connection with the Company's postretirement healthcare
benefits and refunds in the prior year.
Discontinued Operations
The Company recorded income from discontinued operations of $11,602,000 in
the quarter ended June 30, 1996 comprised of (i) $9,602,000 from the settlement
of a tax certiorari proceeding against the County of Nassau for overpayment of
taxes on its former Valley Stream Store property and (ii) $2,000,000 from the
reduction of "Other liabilities of discontinued operations".
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Alexander's current operating properties (five of its nine properties) do not
generate sufficient cash flow to pay all of its expenses. The Company's four
non-operating properties (Lexington Avenue, Paramus, the Kings Plaza Store and
Rego Park II) are in various stages of redevelopment. As rents commence from a
portion of the redevelopment properties, the Company expects that cash flow will
become positive.
The Company estimates that its capital expenditure requirements for
redevelopment projects will include: (i) approximately $2,500,000 to complete
the Rego Park I project, (ii) the redevelopment of the Paramus property, which
may include razing the existing building (in which case, the carrying cost of
approximately $5,400,000 would be written-off), at a cost of approximately
$60,000,000 to $70,000,000, (iii) the redevelopment of the Kings Plaza Store
property at a cost of approximately $5,000,000 and (iv) improvements to the
Kings Plaza Shopping Center at a cost of approximately $15,000,000. Further, the
Company is evaluating redevelopment plans for the Lexington Avenue site, which
may involve razing the existing buildings (in which case, the carrying cost of
approximately $15,000,000 would be written-off) and developing a large multi-use
building requiring capital in excess of $300,000,000 to be expended. While the
Company anticipates that financing will be available after tenants have been
obtained for these redevelopment projects, there can be no assurance that such
financing will be obtained or if obtained, that such financings will be on terms
that are acceptable to the Company. In addition, it is uncertain as to when
these projects will commence.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Property rentals from Caldor, which filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the
United States Bankruptcy Code in September 1995, represented approximately 29%
and 36% of the Company's consolidated revenues for the six months ended June 30,
1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996. Caldor rejected its Fordham Road
lease effective June 6, 1997 and accordingly, no longer pays rent; Alexander's
has filed a claim for damages based on such rejection. The annual base rental
revenue under this lease was $3,537,000 (approximately 15% of the Company's
consolidated revenues). The rejection of the Fordham Road lease and the loss of
property rental payments, if any, under the Caldor lease for the Flushing
Property, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
condition and results of operations. In addition, Caldor failed to meet certain
financial tests required under the Company's Fordham Road mortgage. As a result,
the Company was required to remit the net cash flow from the Fordham Road
Property into an account of the lender as additional payments under the loan.
The amount remitted to the lender for the six months ended June 30, 1997 was
$407,000.
The Company's leases with Circuit City, Bed Bath & Beyond and Old Navy for
the remaining 112,000 square feet at its Rego Park I property commenced during
the second quarter of 1997. In addition, the Company's lease with Sears for
289,000 square feet at its Kings Plaza Store property for use as a full-line
department store is expected to commence in the last quarter of 1997.
In March 1997, the Company extended its Rego Park construction loan for one
year maturing on March 30, 1998. As of June 30, 1997, $75,000,000 was funded
under such construction loan (approximately $16,667,000 was borrowed in the six
months ended June 30, 1997). The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.00% (6.88%
at June 30, 1997). The Company has also agreed with the bank to refinance the
existing loan through the issuance of rated commercial mortgage backed
securities later this year.
The Company estimates that the fair market values of its assets are
substantially in excess of their historical cost and that there is additional
borrowing capacity. Alexander's continues to evaluate its needs for capital
which may be raised through (a) property specific or corporate borrowing, (b)
the sale of securities and (c) asset sales.
In addition, the Company may receive proceeds from condemnation proceedings
of a portion of its Paramus property.
Although there can be no assurance, the Company believes that these cash
sources will be adequate to fund cash requirements until its operations generate
adequate cash flow.
CASH FLOWS
Six Months Ended June 30, 1997
Cash provided by operating activities of $314,000 was comprised of $3,291,000

EXHIBIT 10
ALEXANDER'S, INC.
OMNIBUS STOCK PLAN
1. PURPOSE. The purpose of the Alexander's, Inc. Omnibus Stock Plan (the
"Plan") is to promote the financial interests of Alexander's, Inc. (the
"Company"), including its growth and performance, by encouraging employees and
officers of the Company and its subsidiaries, employees of Vornado Realty Trust
("Vornado") and its subsidiaries or any other person or entity designated by the
Committee (as defined below) (collectively "Eligible Persons") to acquire an
ownership interest in the Company, enhancing the ability of Company and its
subsidiaries to attract and retain people or entities of outstanding ability,
and providing such persons with a way to acquire or increase their proprietary
interest in the Company's success.
2. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN. Subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 14, the number of shares of Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share, of
the Company (the "Shares") which shall be available for the grant of awards
under the Plan shall not exceed 1,050,000. No Participant (as defined in Section
3) shall be granted stock options or stock appreciation rights with respect to
more than 350,000 Shares in any Plan year, subject to adjustment as provided in
Article 14. The Shares issued under the Plan may be authorized and unissued
Shares or treasury Shares, as the Company may from time to time determine.
Shares subject to an award that expires unexercised, that is forfeited,
terminated or canceled, in whole or in part, or is paid in cash in lieu of
Shares, shall thereafter again be available for grant under the Plan.
3. ADMINISTRATION. The Plan shall be administered by a committee to be
selected by the Board of Directors of the Company, from time to time (the
"Committee"), which shall be comprised of no fewer than two members of the
Board. Each member shall be a member of the Board who is "disinterested" within
the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
"Exchange Act"). A majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum, and the
acts of a majority shall be the acts of the Committee.
Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee (i) shall select
the Eligible Persons who will be participants in the Plan (the "Participants"),
determine the type of awards to be made to Participants, determine the Shares or
share units subject to awards, and (ii) shall have the authority to interpret
the Plan, to establish, amend, and rescind any rules and regulations relating to
the Plan, to determine the terms and provisions of any agreements entered into
hereunder and to make all determinations necessary or advisable for the
administration of the Plan. The Committee may correct any defect, supply any
omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any award in the
manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable to carry it into effect. The
determinations of the Committee in the administration of the Plan, as described
herein, shall be final and conclusive.
4. ELIGIBILITY. All Eligible Persons who have demonstrated significant
management potential or who have the capacity for contributing in a substantial
measure to the successful performance of the Company, as determined by the
Committee, are eligible to be Participants in the Plan.
5. AWARDS. Awards granted under the Plan may consist of either incentive
stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code or
non-qualified stock options, provided that only Eligible Persons who are
employees of the Company or its subsidiaries may receive incentive stock
options; stock appreciation rights, performance shares or grants of restricted
stock. Awards of performance shares and restricted stock may provide the
Participant with dividends and voting rights prior to vesting (whether based on
a period of time or based on attainment of specified performance conditions).
Page 15 of 18
<PAGE> 2
6. STOCK OPTIONS. The Committee shall establish the option price at the
time each stock option is granted, which price shall not be less than 100% of
the fair market value of the Shares on the date of grant; provided, that for
incentive stock options granted to persons owning more than 10% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock, the option price shall not be less than 110%
of the fair market value per share at the date of grant. Stock options shall be
exercisable for such period as specified by the Committee, but in no event may
options be exercisable more than ten years after their date of grant (five years
in the case of an incentive stock option granted to a ten percent stockholder).
The option price of each Share as to which a stock option is exercised shall be
paid in full at the time of such exercise. Such payment shall be made in cash,
by tender of unrestricted Shares owned by the Participant valued at fair market
value as of the date of exercise, in such other consideration as the Committee
deems appropriate, or by a combination of cash, unrestricted Shares and such
other consideration.
If determined by the Committee at or subsequent to the date of grant of
a stock option, in the event a Participant pays the exercise price of such stock
option (in whole or in part) by tendering Shares owned by the Participant, such
Participant shall automatically be granted a reload stock option for the number
of Shares used to pay the exercise price. The reload stock option shall have
terms and conditions determined by the Committee consistent with this Section.
If a reload stock option is granted as set forth above, one or more successive
reload stock options shall automatically be granted, unless otherwise determined
by the Committee, to a Participant who pays all or part of the exercise price of
any such reload stock option by tendering Shares owned by the Participant. Such
reload stock option grants shall not be treated as Shares granted under the Plan
in determining the aggregate number of Shares available for the grant of awards
pursuant to the first sentence of Section 2.
7. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. Stock appreciation rights may be granted
in tandem with a stock option, in addition to a stock option, or may be
freestanding and unrelated to a stock option. Stock appreciation rights granted
in tandem with or in addition to a stock option may be granted either at the
same time as the stock option or at a later time. No stock appreciation right
shall be exercisable earlier than six months after grant, except in the event of
the Participant's death or disability. A stock appreciation right shall entitle
the Participant to receive from the Company an amount equal to the increase of
the fair market value of the Share on the exercise of the stock appreciation
right over the grant price. The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall
determine whether the stock appreciation right shall be settled in cash, Shares
or a combination of cash and Shares.
8. PERFORMANCE SHARES. Performance shares may be granted in the form of
actual Shares or share units having a value equal to an identical number of
Shares. In the event that a certificate is issued in respect of Shares subject
to a grant of performance shares, such certificate shall be registered in the
name of the Participant but shall be held by the Company until the time the
Shares subject to the grant of performance shares are earned. The performance
conditions and the length of the performance period shall be determined by the
Committee. The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether
performance shares granted in the form of share units shall be paid in cash,
Shares, or a combination of cash and Shares.
9. RESTRICTED STOCK. Restricted stock may be granted in the form of
actual Shares or share units having a value equal to an identical number of
Shares. In the event that a certificate is issued in respect of Shares subject
to a grant of restricted stock, such certificate shall be registered in the name
of the Participant but shall be held by the Company until the end of the
restricted period. The employment conditions and the length of the period for
vesting of restricted stock shall be established by the Committee at time of
grant. The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether restricted
stock granted in the form of share units shall be paid in cash, Shares, or a
combination of cash and Shares.
10. AWARD AGREEMENTS. Each award under the Plan shall be evidenced by an
agreement setting forth the terms and conditions, as determined by the
Committee, which shall apply to such award, in addition to the terms and
conditions specified in the Plan.
Page 16 of 18
<PAGE> 3
11. WITHHOLDING. The Company shall have the right to deduct from any
payment to be made pursuant to the Plan, or to require prior to the issuance or
delivery of any Shares or the payment of cash under the Plan, any taxes required
by law to be withheld therefrom. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may
permit a Participant to elect to satisfy such withholding obligation by having
the Company retain the number of Shares whose fair market value equals the
amount required to be withheld. Any fraction of a Share required to satisfy such
obligation shall be disregarded and the amount due shall instead be paid in cash
to the Participant.
12. NONTRANSFERABILITY. Except as may otherwise be determined by the
Committee with respect to the transferability of stock options by a Participant
to such Participant's immediate family members (or trusts, partnerships, or
limited liability companies established for such immediate family members), no
award under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable except by will or the
laws of descent and distribution, and no right or interest of any Participant
shall be subject to any lien, obligation or liability of the Participant. For
this purpose, immediate family member means, except as otherwise defined by the
Committee, the Participant's children, stepchildren, grandchildren, parents,
stepparents, grandparents, spouse, siblings (including half brothers and
sisters), in-laws and persons related by reason of legal adoption. Such
transferees may transfer a stock option only by will or the laws of descent or
distribution. A stock option transferred pursuant to this Section 12 shall
remain subject to the provisions of the Plan, and shall be subject to such other
rules as the Committee shall determine. Upon transfer of a stock option, any
related stock appreciation right shall be canceled. Except in the case of a
holder's incapacity, an award shall be exercisable only by the holder thereof.
13. NO RIGHT TO EMPLOYMENT. No person shall have any claim or right to
be granted an award, and the grant of such award shall not be construed as
giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ of the Company,
Vornado or their respective subsidiaries. Further, the Company, Vornado and
their respective subsidiaries expressly reserve the right at any time to dismiss
a Participant free from any liability, or any claim under the Plan, except as
provided herein or in any agreement entered into hereunder.
14. ADJUSTMENT OF AND CHANGES IN SHARES. In the event of any change in
the outstanding Shares by reason of any share dividend or split,
recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spinoff, combination or exchange of
Shares or other corporate change, or any distributions to Common Stockholders
other than regular cash dividends, the Committee may make such substitution or
adjustment, if any, as it deems to be equitable, as to the number or kind of
Shares or other securities issued or reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan
and to outstanding awards.
15. AMENDMENT. The Board of Directors may amend or terminate the Plan or
any portion thereof at any time, provided that no amendment shall be made
without stockholder approval if such approval is necessary in order for the Plan
to continue to comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.
16. RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER. Except as provided in Section 5 hereof, a
Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares
issuable upon exercise of any award hereunder until a certificate or
certificates evidencing the Shares shall have been issued to the Participant
and, subject to Section 14, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or
distributions or other rights in respect of any Share for which the record date
is prior to the date on which the Participant shall become the holder of record
thereof.
17. EFFECTIVE DATE. The Plan shall become effective on the date of its
adoption by the Board of Directors of the Company, and awards may be granted
immediately thereafter, but any award granted under the Plan is subject to
defeasance unless and until the Plan shall have been approved by the
stockholders. If such stockholder approval is not obtained, the Plan and any
options granted thereunder shall be null and void. Subject to earlier
termination pursuant to Section 15, the Plan shall have a term of ten years from
its effective date.
