**1.  Organization and Basis of Presentation**

 

**Reckson Operating Partnership, L.P., orROP, commenced operations on June 2, 1995. Reckson Associates Realty Corp., or RARC, served as the sole generalpartner until November 15, 2007, at which time RARC withdrew, and WyomingAcquisition GP LLC, or WAGP, succeeded it, as the sole general partner ofROP.  WAGP is a wholly-owned subsidiaryof SL Green Realty Corp., or SL Green. The sole limited partner of ROP is SL Green Operating Partnership, L.P.,or the operating partnership.**

** **

**ROP is engaged in the ownership,management, operation and development of commercial real estate properties,principally office properties and also owns land for future development locatedin New York City, Westchester and Connecticut, which collectively is also knownas the New York Metro area.  At June 30,2008, our inventory of development parcels aggregated approximately 81 acres ofland in four separate parcels on which we can, based on estimates at June 30,2008, develop approximately 1.1 million square feet of office space and inwhich we had invested approximately $64.5 million.  In addition, ROP also held approximately$98.2 million of structured finance investments.**

** **

SLGreen and the operating partnership were formed in June 1997.  SL Green has qualified, and expects toqualify in the current fiscal year as a real estate investment trust, or REIT,under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, and operatesas a self-administered, self-managed REIT. A REIT is a legal entity that holds real estate interests and, throughpayments of dividends to stockholders, is permitted to reduce or avoid thepayment of Federal income taxes at the corporate level.  Unless the context requires otherwise, allreferences to “we,” “our” and “us” means ROP and all entities owned orcontrolled by ROP.

 

On January 25, 2007,SL Green completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of commonstock of RARC pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, datedas of August 3, 2006, as amended, the Merger Agreement, among SL Green,Wyoming Acquisition Corp., or Wyoming, Wyoming Acquisition GP LLC, WyomingAcquisition Partnership LP, RARC and ROP. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement,each of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of RARC was convertedinto (i) $31.68 in cash, (ii) 0.10387 of a share of the common stock,par value $0.01 per share, of SL Green and (iii) a pro-rated dividend inan amount equal to approximately $0.0977 in cash. SL Green also assumed anaggregate of approximately $226.3 million of ROP mortgage debt, approximately$287.5 million of ROP convertible public debt and approximately $967.8 millionof ROP public unsecured notes.  Thistransaction is referred to herein as the Merger.

 

On January 25, 2007,SL Green completed the sale, or Asset Sale, of certain assets of ROP to aninvestment group led by certain of RARC’s former executive management, or theBuyer, for a total consideration of approximately $2.0 billion. SL Green causedROP to transfer the following assets to the Buyer in the Asset Sale: (1) certainreal property assets and/or entities owning such real property assets, ineither case, of ROP and 100% of certain loans secured by real property, all ofwhich are located in Long Island, New York; (2) certain real propertyassets and/or entities owning such real property assets, in either case, of ROPlocated in White Plains and Harrison, New York; (3) all of the realproperty assets and/or entities owning 100% of the interests in such realproperty assets, in either case, of ROP located in New Jersey; (4) theentity owning a 25% interest in Reckson Australia Operating Company LLC, RARC’sformer Australian management company (including its former Australian licensedresponsible entity), and other related entities, and ROP and ROP subsidiaries’rights to and interests in, all related contracts and assets, including,without limitation, property management and leasing, construction services andasset management contracts and services contracts; (5) the direct orindirect interest of RARC in Reckson Asset Partners, LLC, an affiliate ofReckson Strategic Venture Partners, LLC, or RSVP, and all of ROP’s rights inand to certain loans made by ROP to Frontline Capital Group, the bankruptparent of RSVP, and other related entities, which will be purchased by a 50/50joint venture with an affiliate of SL Green; (6) a 50% participationinterest in certain loans made by a subsidiary of ROP that are secured by fourreal property assets located in Long Island, New York; and (7) 100% ofcertain loans secured by real property located in White Plains and NewRochelle, New York.

 

As a result of thesubstantial change in ownership from the Merger, SL Green has recorded theMerger in accordance with the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force TopicD-97, “Push-Down Accounting.”  Theapplication of “push-down accounting” resulting in the adjustment of thecarrying values of the assets and liabilities of ROP to fair value in the samemanner as ROP’s assets and liabilities were recorded by SL Green subsequent tothe Merger.  The net impact of suchadjustments was approximately $3.0 billion, related primarily to increases tothe carrying value of real estate assets and lease related intangibles.

**In June 2005, the FASB ratified the consensus in EITF Issue No. 04-5,or EITF 04-5, “Determining Whether a General Partner, or the General Partnersas a Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity When the LimitedPartners Have Certain Rights,” which provides guidance in determining whether ageneral partner controls a limited partnership. EITF 04-5 states thatthe general partner in a limited partnership is presumed to control thatlimited partnership. The presumption may be overcome if the limited partnershave either (1) the substantive ability to dissolve the limitedpartnership or otherwise remove the general partner without cause or (2) substantiveparticipating rights, which provide the limited partners with the ability toeffectively participate in significant decisions that would be expected to bemade in the ordinary course of the limited partnership’s business and therebypreclude the general partner from exercising unilateral control over thepartnership.**

**Investmentin Commercial Real Estate Properties**

 

Inaccordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” we allocate thepurchase price of real estate to land and building and, if determined to bematerial, intangibles, such as the value of above-, below- and at-market leasesand origination costs associated with the in-place leases.  We depreciate the amount allocated tobuilding and other intangible assets over their estimated useful lives, whichgenerally range from three to 40 years and from one to 40 years,respectively.  The values of the above-and below-market leases are amortized and recorded as either an increase (inthe case of below-market leases) or a decrease (in the case of above-marketleases) to rental income over the remaining term of the associated lease, whichrange from one to 14 years.  The valueassociated with in-place leases and tenant relationships are amortized over theexpected term of the relationship, which includes an estimated probability ofthe lease renewal, and its estimated term, which range from one to 14years.  If a tenant vacates its spaceprior to the contractual termination of the lease and no rental payments arebeing made on the lease, any unamortized balance of the related intangible willbe written off.  The tenant improvementsand origination costs are amortized as an expense over the remaining life ofthe lease (or charged against earnings if the lease is terminated prior to itscontractual expiration date).  We assessfair value of the leases based on estimated cash flow projections that utilizeappropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information.  Estimates of future cash flows are based on anumber of factors including the historical operating results, known trends, andmarket/economic conditions that may affect the property.

 

Asa result of our evaluations, under SFAS No. 141, of acquisitions made, werecognized an increase of approximately $2.9 million, $7.8 million, none andnone in rental revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008and 2007, respectively, for the amortization of aggregate below-market rents inexcess of above-market leases and a reduction in lease origination costs,resulting from the reallocation of the purchase price of the applicableproperties.  We recognized a reduction ininterest expense for the amortization of above-market rate mortgages ofapproximately $1.7 million, $3.4 million, $1.6 million and $2.7 million,including none related to the period January 1, 2007 to January 25,2007, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007,respectively.

**IncomeTaxes**

 

No provision has beenmade for income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statementssince such taxes, if any, are the responsibility of the individual partners.

 

**EarningsPer Unit**

 

Earnings per unit was notcomputed in 2008 or 2007 as there were no outstanding common units subsequentto January 25, 2007.

 

**Use ofEstimates**

 

The preparation offinancial statements in conformity with accounting principles generallyaccepted in the United States requires management to make estimates andassumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements andaccompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

**Concentrations of CreditRisk**

** **

Financial instrumentsthat potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarilyof cash investments, structured finance investments and accountsreceivable.  We place our cashinvestments in excess of insured amounts with high quality financial institutions.  The collateral securing our structuredfinance investments is primarily located in the Greater New York Area. See Note4. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our tenants and require certaintenants to provide security deposits or letters of credit.  Though these security deposits and letters ofcredit are insufficient to meet the total value of a tenant’s lease obligation,they are a measure of good faith and a source of funds to offset the economiccosts associated with lost rent and the costs associated with re-tenanting thespace.  Although the properties in ourreal estate portfolio are primarily located in Manhattan, we also have Suburbanproperties located in Westchester County, Connecticut and Long IslandCity.  The tenants located in our buildingsoperate in various industries.  Otherthan two tenants who contributed approximately 6.9% and 6.6% of our annualizedrent, no other tenant in the portfolio contributed more than 4.1% of ourannualized rent, including our share of joint venture annualized rent, at June 30,2008.  Approximately 14%, 15%, 24% and12% of our annualized rent, including our share of joint venture annualizedrent, was attributable to 810 Seventh Avenue, 919 Third Avenue, 1185 Avenue ofthe Americas and 1350 Avenue of the Americas, respectively, for the quarterended June 30, 2008.  One borroweraccounted for more than 10.0% of the revenue earned on structured financeinvestments during the three months ended June 30, 2008.

 

**Reclassification**

 

Certain prior yearbalances have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

 

**RecentlyIssued Accounting Pronouncements**

 

In September 2006,the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, or SFAS No. 157, “Fair ValueMeasurements”. SFAS No. 157 provides guidance for using fair value tomeasure assets and liabilities. This statement clarifies the principle thatfair value should be based on the assumptions that market participants woulduse when pricing the asset or liability. SFAS No. 157 establishes a fairvalue hierarchy, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active marketsand the lowest priority to unobservable data. SFAS No. 157 applieswhenever other standards require assets or liabilities to be measured at fairvalue. This statement is effective in fiscal years beginning after November 15,2007. The adoption of this standard on January 1, 2008 did not have amaterial effect on our consolidated financial statements.  In February 2008, the FASB delayed theeffective date of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and non-financialliabilities to fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2008.

In February 2007,the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, or SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Optionfor Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” SFAS No. 159 allowsentities to voluntarily choose, at specified election dates, to measure manyfinancial assets (as well as certain nonfinancial instruments that are similarto financial instruments) at fair value (the “fair value option”). The electionis made on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable. If the fairvalue option is elected for an instrument, the statement specifies that allsubsequent changes in fair value for that instrument shall be reported inearnings (or another performance indicator for entities such as not-for profitorganizations that do not report earnings). Upon initial adoption, SFAS No. 159provides entities with a one-time chance to elect the fair value option forexisting eligible items. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning ofan entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. We did not make the election to measure financial assets at fair valueand therefore, adoption of this standard did not have an effect on thefinancial statements.

 

In March 2008, theFASB issued SFAS No. 161, or SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures aboutDerivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133.”SFAS No. 161 requires entities to provide greater transparency about (a) howand why and entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivativeinstruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments andrelated hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, results ofoperations, and cash flows.  SFAS No. 161is effective on January 1, 2009.  Wedo not expect this statement to have a material impact on our financialstatements.

 

In May 2008,the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. APB 14-1, or FSP 14-1, “Accountingfor Convertible Debt Instruments that may be Settled in Cash uponConversion.” FSP 14-1 requires the issuer of certain convertible debtinstruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets) on conversion toseparately account for the liability (debt) and equity (conversion option)components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’snonconvertible debt borrowing rate. FSP 14-1 will significantly affect theaccounting for instruments commonly referred to as Instruments B and C in EITF No. 90-19,“Convertible Bonds with Issuer Option to Settle for Cash upon Conversion,”which is nullified by FSP 14-1, and any other convertible debt instruments thatrequire or permit settlement in any combination of cash and shares at theissuer’s option, such as those sometimes referred to as “Instrument X.” FSP14-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginningafter December 15, 2008. We are currently evaluating the impact theadoption of this standard will have on our financial statements.

 

**3.  Property Dispositions**

 

On January 25, 2007,we sold the interests in various properties as part of the Asset Sale forapproximately $2.0 billion, excluding closing costs.  Due to the application of “push-downaccounting,” no gain on sale was recognized. Simultaneous with the Merger, the properties located at 120 West 45thStreet, NY, and Landmark Square 1-6, Connecticut, were assigned by ROP to theoperating partnership.

 

AtJune 30, 2008, discontinued operations included the results of operationsof real estate assets sold prior to that date. This included the assets sold as part of the Asset Sale.

**8.  Partners’Capital**

** **

Prior to the Merger, a Class Aunit and a share of common stock of RARC had similar economic characteristicsas they effectively shared equally in the net income or loss and distributionsof ROP.  As of January 25, 2007, allof our issued and outstanding Class A common units were owned byRARC.  In connection with the Merger,RARC assigned all of its interest in the Class A common units to WAGP andthe operating partnership.  On November 15,2007, RARC withdrew, and WAGP succeeded it, as the sole general partner ofROP.  All of our issued and outstanding Class Acommon units are owned by WAGP and the operating partnership.

 

As of December 31,2006, we had issued and outstanding 1,200 preferred units of limitedpartnership interest, or Preferred Units, with a liquidation preference valueof $1,000 per unit and a stated distribution rate of 7.0% which was subject toreduction based upon terms of their initial issuance.  The terms of the Preferred Units provided forthis reduction in distribution rate in order to address the effect of certainmortgages with above market interest rates which were assumed by us inconnection with properties contributed to us in 1998.  As a result of the aforementioned reduction,no distributions were being made on the Preferred Units.  In connection with the Merger, the holder ofthe Preferred Units transferred the Preferred Units to the operatingpartnership in exchange for the issuance of 1,200 preferred units of limitedpartnership interest in the operating partnership with substantially similarterms as the Preferred Units.

 

**Net income per common partnership unitwas determined by allocating net income after preferred distributions andminority partners’ interest in consolidated partnerships income to the generaland limited partners based on their weighted average distribution per commonpartnership units outstanding during the respective periods presented.**

** **

Holders of preferredunits of limited and general partnership interest were entitled todistributions based on the stated rates of return (subject to adjustment) forthose units.

 

Prior to the Merger, RARCmaintained a long term incentive program, or LTIP. With respect to the LTIPunits and the restricted equity awards, RARC recorded compensation expensewhich has been included in marketing, general and administrative expenses onthe accompanying consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31,2006, RARC had accrued approximately $33.7 million of compensation expense withrespect to the special outperformance pool. These costs were included inaccounts payable and accrued expenses on the balance sheet at December 31,2006.  During January 2007, inconnection with the Merger, RARC paid, in cash, approximately$35.5 million to the participants of the special outperformance pool ofwhich $1.8 million was expensed during the period January 1, 2007 to January 25,2007 (Predecessor).

 

Intercompany transactionsbetween SL Green and ROP are generally recorded as contributions anddistributions.

Incomefrom continuing operations represents total revenues less total expenses forthe real estate segment and total investment income less allocated interestexpense for the structured finance segment. Interest costs for the structured finance segment are imputed assuming100% leverage at SL Green’s unsecured revolving credit facility borrowingcost.  We do not allocate marketing,general and administrative expenses to the structured finance segment, since webase performance on the individual segments prior to allocating marketing,general and administrative expenses.  Allother expenses, except interest, relate entirely to the real estateassets.  There were no transactionsbetween the above two segments.

 

Thetable below reconciles income from continuing operations before minorityinterest to net income available to common unitholders for the three and sixmonths ended June 30, 2008, the three months ended June 30, 2007(Successor) and the periods January 26, 2007 to June 30, 2007(Successor) and January 1, 2007 to January 25, 2007 (Predecessor) (inthousands):

**ITEM 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Resultsof Operations**

** **

**Overview**

 

**Reckson Operating Partnership, L.P., orROP, commenced operations on June 2, 1995. Reckson Associates Realty Corp., or RARC, served as the sole generalpartner until November 15, 2007, at which time RARC withdrew, and WyomingAcquisition GP LLC, or WAGP, succeeded it, as the sole general partner ofROP.  WAGP is a wholly-owned subsidiaryof SL Green Realty Corp., or SL Green. The sole limited partner of ROP is SL Green Operating Partnership, L.P.,or the operating partnership.**

** **

**ROP is engaged in the ownership,management, operation, acquisition, leasing, financing and development of commercialreal estate properties, principally office properties and also owns land forfuture development located in the New York City, Westchester and Connecticutwhich collectively is also known as the New York Metro area.  At June 30, 2008, our inventory ofdevelopment parcels aggregated approximately 81 acres of land in four separateparcels on which we can, based on estimates at June 30, 2008, developapproximately 1.1 million square feet of office space and in which we hadinvested approximately $64.5 million.  Inaddition, as of June 30, 2008 ROP also held approximately $98.2 million ofstructured finance investments.**

** **

On January 25, 2007,SL Green completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of commonstock of RARC pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, datedas of August 3, 2006, as amended, the Merger Agreement, among SL Green,Wyoming Acquisition Corp., or Wyoming, Wyoming Acquisition GP LLC, WyomingAcquisition Partnership LP, RARC and ROP. Pursuant to the terms of the MergerAgreement, each of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of RARCwas converted into (i) $31.68 in cash, (ii) 0.10387 of a share of thecommon stock, par value $0.01 per share, of SL Green and (iii) a pro-rateddividend in an amount equal to approximately $0.0977 in cash. SL Green alsoassumed an aggregate of approximately $226.3 million of ROP mortgage debt,approximately $287.5 million of ROP convertible public debt and approximately$967.8 million of ROP public unsecured notes. This transaction is referred to herein as the Merger.

 

On January 25, 2007,SL Green completed the sale, or Asset Sale, of certain assets of ROP to aninvestment group led by certain of Reckson’s former executive management, orthe Buyer, for a total consideration of approximately $2.0 billion. SL Greencaused ROP to transfer the following assets to the Buyer in the Asset Sale: (1) certainreal property assets and/or entities owning such real property assets, ineither case, of ROP and 100% of certain loans secured by real property, all ofwhich are located in Long Island, New York; (2) certain real propertyassets and/or entities owning such real property assets, in either case, of ROPlocated in White Plains and Harrison, New York; (3) all of the real propertyassets and/or entities owning 100% of the interests in such real propertyassets, in either case, of ROP located in New Jersey; (4) the entityowning a 25% interest in Reckson Australia Operating Company LLC, RARC’s formerAustralian management company (including its former Australian licensedresponsible entity), and other related entities, and ROP and ROP subsidiaries’rights to and interests in, all related contracts and assets, including,without limitation, property management and leasing, construction services andasset management contracts and services contracts; (5) the direct orindirect interest of RARC in Reckson Asset Partners, LLC, an affiliate ofReckson Strategic Venture Partners, LLC, or RSVP, and all of ROP’s rights inand to certain loans made by ROP to Frontline Capital Group, the bankruptparent of RSVP, and other related entities, which were purchased by a 50/50joint venture with an affiliate of SL Green; (6) a 50% participationinterest in certain loans made by a subsidiary of ROP that are secured by fourreal property assets located in Long Island, New York; and (7) 100% ofcertain loans secured by real property located in White Plains and NewRochelle, New York.

 

The following discussionrelated to our consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunctionwith the financial statements appearing in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Qand in Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,2007.

 

As a result of thesubstantial change in ownership from the Merger, SL Green has recorded theMerger in accordance with the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force TopicD-97, “Push-Down Accounting.”  Theapplication of “push-down accounting” resulted in the adjustment of thecarrying values of the assets and liabilities of ROP to fair value in the samemanner as ROP’s assets and liabilities were recorded by SL Green subsequent tothe Merger.  The net impact of suchadjustments was approximately $3.0 billion.

 

As of June 30, 2008, we owned the followinginterests in commercial office properties in the New York Metro area, primarilyin midtown Manhattan, a borough of New York City, or Manhattan.  Ourinvestments in the New York Metro area also include investments in Queens,Westchester County and Connecticut, which are collectively known as theSuburban assets:

**Results of Operations**

 

***Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2008 tothe three months ended June 30, 2007***

 

Comparisonsdiscussed below are made using the combined operations of the Predecessor andSuccessor for 2007 as compared to the Successor’s operations for the sameperiod in 2008.  The results ofoperations may not be comparable for the periods presented due to the change inthe basis of accounting between the Successor and Predecessor periods resultingfrom the application of “push-down accounting.” The results of operations for the Predecessor period in 2007 include 120West 45th Street and Landmark Square 1-6.  In connection with the Merger, theseproperties were assigned to the operating partnership and are therefore notincluded in the Successor period results of operations.

AtJune 30, 2008, we estimated that the current market rents on ourconsolidated Manhattan properties and consolidated Suburban properties wereapproximately 42.7% and 13.2% higher, respectively, than then existing in-placefully escalated rents.  Approximately1.9% of the space leased at our consolidated properties expires during theremainder of 2008.

Ourjoint venture at One Court Square is net leased to a single tenant until2020.  As such, we do not anticipate muchchange in occupancy rates or net income contributions from this asset.  At June 30, 2008, we estimated thatcurrent market rents at our Suburban joint venture asset was approximately 9.8%higher than then existing in-place fully escalated rents.

 

Thedecrease in investment and other income is primarily due to the averageinvestment balance decreasing between 2007 and 2008 due to the redemption ofcertain loans during 2007.  In addition,we recorded a $2.0 million loan loss reserve in 2008.

Operatingexpenses increased over the same period in the prior year due to increases incleaning costs ($0.4 million), repairs and maintenance ($0.1 million),insurance ($0.3 million) and professional fees ($0.3 million) and werepartially offset by a reduction in utility costs ($0.1 million).  The decrease in ground rent expense relatedprimarily to the ground rent at 1185 Avenue of the Americas.

InApril 2007, we redeemed $200.0 million of unsecured notes which bore anaverage interest rate of 6.9%.  Weincurred a $1.0 million make-whole payment in 2007 in connection with the earlyredemption of these bonds.  This wasoffset by a reduction in capitalized interest in 2008 ($2.4 million).

 

Thedecrease in marketing, general and administrative expenses is primarily due tothe Predecessor 2007 period including approximately $8.8 million related tomerger costs and $1.8 million related to the long-term incentive compensationprogram.  None of these costs wereincurred in 2008.

Thedecrease in equity in net income of unconsolidated joint venture was primarilydue to lower net income contribution from One Court Square resulting fromadditional depreciation expense due to the purchase accounting adjustment tothe investment in connection with the Merger. Our joint venture at One Court Square is net leased to a single tenantuntil 2020.  As such, we do notanticipate much change in occupancy rates or net income contributions from thisasset.  At June 30, 2008, weestimated that current market rents at our Suburban joint venture asset wasapproximately 9.8% higher than then existing in-place fully escalated rents.

 

Thedecrease in investment and other income is primarily due to the averageinvestment balance decreasing between 2007 and 2008 due to the redemption ofcertain loans during 2007.  In addition,we recorded a $2.0 million loan loss reserve in 2008.

Thedecrease in interest expense is due to mortgage debt on certain propertiesbeing repaid after June 30, 2007 and those properties remaining unencumbered.  In addition, in April 2007, we redeemed$200.0 million of unsecured notes which bore an average interest rate of6.9%.  We incurred a $1.0 millionmake-whole payment in 2007 in connection with the early redemption of thesebonds.

 

Thedecrease in marketing, general and administrative expenses is primarily due tothe Predecessor 2007 period including approximately $8.8 million related tomerger costs and $1.8 million related to the long-term incentive compensationprogram.  None of these costs wereincurred in 2008.

 

**Liquidityand Capital Resources**

 

We currently expect that our principal sources offunds to meet our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements (workingcapital, property operations, debt service, redevelopment of properties, tenantimprovements and leasing costs) will include cash flow from operations and netproceeds from divestitures of properties and redemptions of structured financeinvestments.

 

Cash flow from operations is primarily dependent uponthe occupancy level of our portfolio, the net effective rental rates achievedon our leases, the collectibility of rent and operating escalations andrecoveries from our tenants and the level of operating and other costs.

 

We believe that our sources of working capital,specifically our cash flow from operations, are adequate for us to meet ourshort-term and long-term liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future.

 

On January 25, 2007, we were acquired by SLGreen. See Item 2 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis — Liquidity andCapital Resources” in SL Green’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for thequarter ended June 30, 2008 for a complete discussion of additionalsources of liquidity available to us due to our indirect ownership by SL Green.

 

#### **Cash Flows**

**The following summary discussion of our cash flows is based on ourcondensed consolidated statements of cash flows in “Item 1. FinancialStatements” and is not meant to be an all-inclusive discussion of the changesin our cash flows for the periods presented below.**

Forpurposes of this cash flow analysis, the cash flows for the period from January 1,2007 to January 25, 2007 (Predecessor), the date of the Merger, have beencombined with the cash flows for the period January 26, 2007 to June 30,2007 (Successor) to provide a reasonable comparison to the cash flows for thesix months ended June 30, 2008 (Successor).  Cash and cash equivalents were $16.6 millionand $12.2 million at June 30, 2008 and June 30, 2007, respectively,representing an increase of $4.4 million. The decrease was a result of the following increases and decreases incash flows (in thousands):

**Our principal source of operating cash flow is related to the leasing andoperating of the properties in our portfolio. Our properties provide arelatively consistent stream of cash flow that provides us with resources topay operating expenses, debt service and fund quarterly dividend anddistribution payment requirements. At June 30, 2008, our portfolio was94.4% occupied. In addition, rental rates continue to increase and tenantconcession packages decrease in the Manhattan and Suburban marketplaces. Ourstructured finance and joint venture investments also provide a steady streamof operating cash flow to us.**

**Capitalization**

** **

Prior to the Merger, a Class Acommon unit and a share of common stock of RARC had similar economiccharacteristics as they effectively share equally in the net income or loss anddistributions of ROP.  As of January 25,2007, all of our issued and outstanding Class A common units were owned byRARC.  In connection with the Merger,RARC assigned all of its interest in the Class A common units to WAGP andthe operating partnership.  On November 15,2007, RARC withdrew, and WAGP succeeded it, as the sole general partner of ROP.As of December 31, 2007, all of our issued and outstanding Class Acommon units were owned by WAGP or the operating partnership.

 

As of December 31,2006, we had issued and outstanding 1,200 preferred units of limitedpartnership interest, or Preferred Units, with a liquidation preference valueof $1,000 per unit and a stated distribution rate of 7.0% which was subject toreduction based upon terms of their initial issuance.  The terms of the Preferred Units provided forthis reduction in distribution rate in order to address the effect of certainmortgages with above market interest rates which were assumed by us inconnection with properties contributed to us in 1998.   As a result of the aforementioned reduction,no distributions were being made on the Preferred Units.  In connection with the Merger, the holder ofthe Preferred Units transferred the Preferred Units to the operatingpartnership in exchange for the issuance of 1,200 preferred units of limitedpartnership interest in the operating partnership with substantially similarterms as the Preferred Units.

(1)  Exchangeable seniordebentures which are callable after June 17, 2010 at 100% of par.  In addition, the debentures can be put to us,at the option of the holder at par plus accrued and unpaid interest, on June 15,2010, 2015 and 2020 and upon the occurrence of certain change of controltransactions. As a result of the Merger, the adjusted exchange rate for thedebentures is 7.7461 shares of SL Green’s common stock per $1,000 of principalamount of debentures and the adjusted reference dividend for the debentures is$1.3491.

(2)  Interest on the senior unsecured notes is payablesemi-annually with principal and unpaid interest due on the scheduled maturitydates.

 

OnApril 27, 2007, the $50.0 million, 6.0% unsecured notes scheduled tomature in June 2007 and the $150.0 million, 7.20% unsecured notesscheduled to mature in August 2007, assumed as part of the Merger, wereredeemed.

 

**RestrictiveCovenants**

 

Theterms of our senior unsecured notes include certain restrictions and covenantswhich limit, among other things, the incurrence of additional indebtedness andliens, and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to theminimum amount of debt service coverage, the maximum amount of consolidatedunsecured and secured indebtedness and the minimum amount of unencumberedassets.  As of June 30, 2008 and December 31,2007, we were in compliance with all such covenants.

 

**MarketRate Risk**

 

We arenot exposed to changes in interest rates as we have no floating rate borrowingarrangements.

 

All of our long-termdebt, totaling approximately $1.3 billion, bears interest at fixed rates, and thereforethe fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in the marketinterest rates.

 

**Off-BalanceSheet Arrangements**

 

Wehave a number of off-balance sheet investments, including a joint ventureinvestment and structured finance investments. These investments all have varying ownership structures.  Our joint venture arrangement is accountedfor under the equity method of accounting as we have the ability to exercisesignificant influence, but not control over the operating and financial decisionsof this joint venture arrangement.  Ouroff-balance sheet arrangements are discussed in Note 4, “Structured FinanceInvestments” and Note 5, “Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture” in theaccompanying financial statements.

 

**CapitalExpenditures**

 

We estimate that for thesix months ending December 31, 2008, we will incur approximately $48.6million of capital expenditures (including tenant improvements and leasingcommissions) on consolidated properties and none at our joint ventureproperty.  We expect to fund thesecapital expenditures with operating cash flow, borrowings under SL Green’scredit facility and cash on hand.  Webelieve that we will have sufficient resources to satisfy our capital needsduring the next 12-month period.

 

Thereafter, we expectthat our capital needs will be met through a combination of net cash providedby operations, borrowings, potential asset sales or additional equity or debtissuances by SL Green.

In addition,First Quality has the non-exclusive opportunity to provide cleaning and relatedservices to individual tenants at our properties on a basis separatelynegotiated with any tenant seeking such additional services.  We paid Alliance approximately $0.4 million,$0.9 million, none and none for three and six months ended June 30, 2008,the three months ended June 30, 2007 and the period January 26, 2007to June 30, 2007, respectively, for these services (excluding servicesprovided directly to tenants).

 

**AllocatedExpenses from SL Green**

 

Subsequent to the Merger,property operating expenses include an allocation of salary and other operatingcosts from SL Green.  Such amount wasapproximately $0.9 million, $2.0 million, $1.0 million and $1.6 million for thethree and six months ended June 30, 2008, the three months ended June 30,2007 and the period January 26, 2007 to June 30, 2007, respectively.

 

**Other**

 

**Insurance**

 

**SL Green maintains “all-risk” property and rental valuecoverage (including coverage regarding the perils of flood, earthquake andterrorism) and liability insurance with limits in excess of $200.0 millionper location. These insurance policies cover the ROP assets.  SL Green now maintains two property insuranceportfolios. The first portfolio maintains a blanket limit of$600.0 million per occurrence for the majority of the New York Cityproperties in our portfolio with a sub-limit of $450.0 million for acts ofterrorism. This policy expires on December 31, 2008.  The second portfolio maintains a limit of$600.0 million per occurrence, including terrorism, for the majority of theSuburban properties. This policy expires on December 31, 2008.  The liability policy expires on October 31,2008.  The New York City portfolioincorporates SL Green’s captive, Belmont Insurance Company, which SL Greenformed in an effort to stabilize, to some extent, the fluctuations of insurancemarket conditions. Belmont is licensed to write up to $100.0 million ofcoverage for us, but at this time is providing $50.0 million of terrorismcoverage in excess of $250.0 million and is insuring a large deductible onthe liability insurance with a $250,000 deductible per occurrence and a $2.4million annual aggregate loss limit. SL Green has secured an excess insurer toprotect against catastrophic liability losses (above $250,000 deductible peroccurrence) and a stop loss for aggregate claims that exceed $2.4 million.  SL Green has retained a third partyadministrator to manage all claims within the deductible and we anticipate thatdirect management of liability claims will improve loss experience and ultimatelylower the cost of liability insurance in future years. Although SL Greenconsiders its insurance coverage (inclusive of the ROP assets) to beappropriate, in the event of a major catastrophe, such as an act of terrorism,SL Green may not have sufficient coverage to replace certain properties.**

 

The Terrorism RiskInsurance Act, or TRIA, which was enacted in November 2002, was renewed onDecember 31, 2007. Congress extended TRIA, now called TRIPRA (TerrorismRisk Insurance Program Reauthorization and Extension Act of 2007) until December 31,2014. The law extends the federal Terrorism Insurance Program that requiresinsurance companies to offer terrorism coverage and provides for compensationfor insured losses resulting from acts of terrorism. Our debt instruments,consisting of mortgage loans secured by our properties (which are generallynon-recourse to us), mezzanine loans, ground leases and SL Green’s 2005unsecured revolving credit facility and secured term loan, contain customarycovenants requiring us to maintain insurance. There can be no assurance thatthe lenders or ground lessors under these instruments will not take theposition that a total or partial exclusion from “all-risk” insurance coveragefor losses due to terrorist acts is a breach of these debt and ground leaseinstruments that allows the lenders or ground lessors to declare an event ofdefault and accelerate repayment of debt or recapture of ground leasepositions. In addition, if lenders insist on full coverage for these risks andprevail in asserting that we are required to maintain such coverage, it couldresult in substantially higher insurance premiums.

 

Subsequent to the Merger,we obtained insurance coverage through an insurance program administered by SLGreen.  In connection with this programwe incurred insurance expense of approximately $0.6 million, $1.2 million, $0.4million and $0.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008,the three months ended June 30, 2007 and the period January 26, 2007to June 30, 2007, respectively.

**Inflation**

 

Substantiallyall of the office leases provide for separate real estate tax and operatingexpense escalations as well as operating expense recoveries based on increasesin the Consumer Price Index or other measures such as porters’ wage.  In addition, many of the leases provide forfixed base rent increases.  We believethat inflationary increases may be at least partially offset by the contractualrent increases and expense escalations described above.

For quantitative andqualitative disclosures about market risk, see item 7A, “Quantitative andQualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-Kfor the year ended December 31, 2007. Our exposures to market risk have not changed materially since December 31,2007.

 

**ITEM 4T.  Controls and Procedures**

 

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

 

We maintain disclosurecontrols and procedures that are designed to ensure that information requiredto be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarizedand reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules andforms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to ourmanagement, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure basedclosely on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-15(e) ofthe Exchange Act.  Notwithstanding theforegoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, canprovide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncoverfailures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise requiredto be set forth in our periodic reports. Also, we have investments in certain unconsolidated entities.  As we do not control these entities, ourdisclosure controls and procedures with respect to such entities arenecessarily substantially more limited than those we maintain with respect toour consolidated subsidiaries.

 

As of the end of theperiod covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under thesupervision and with the participation of our management, including ourPresident and our Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the design and operationof our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation as of the end of the period covered by thisreport, our President and Treasurer concluded that our disclosure controls andprocedures were effective to give reasonable assurances to the timelycollection, evaluation and disclosure of information relating to the Companythat would potentially be subject to disclosure under the Securities ExchangeAct of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgatedthereunder.

 

We are not currentlyrequired to comply with Section 404 (Management’s Annual Report onInternal Control Over Financial Reporting) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002because we are not an “accelerated filer,” as defined by Rule 12b-2 underthe Exchange Act.  We are in the processof continuously improving our internal controls over financial reportingprocesses and procedures for our financial reporting so that our management canreport on these processes and procedures when required to do so.

 

**Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

 

Therehave been no significant changes in our internal control over financialreporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2008, that has materiallyaffected, or is reasonably likely to material affect, our internal control overfinancial reporting.
