PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

General

ROP is engaged in the acquisition, ownership, management and operation of commercial real estate properties, principally office properties, and also owns land for future development, located in New York City, Westchester County and Connecticut, which collectively is also known as the New York Metropolitan area.

SL Green Realty Corp., or SL Green, and the Operating Partnership were formed in June 1997. SL Green has qualified, and expects to qualify 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 operates as a self-administered, self-managed REIT. A REIT is a legal entity that holds real estate interests and, through payments of dividends to stockholders, is permitted to minimize the payment of Federal income taxes at the corporate level. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to "we," "our," "us" and the "Company" means ROP and all entities owned or controlled by ROP.

On January 25, 2007, SL Green completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Reckson Associates Realty Corp., or RARC, the prior general partner of ROP. This transaction is referred to herein as the Merger.

In connection with the closing of our 2011 revolving credit facility and 2012 credit facility, in which we, along with SL Green and the Operating Partnership are borrowers, SL Green transferred five properties, with total assets aggregating to $683.8 million at November 1, 2011 and transferred three additional properties with total assets aggregating to $320.2 million at December 31, 2012, to ROP. Under the Business Combinations guidance, these transfers were determined to be transfers of businesses between the indirect parent company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. As such, the assets and liabilities were transferred at their carrying value. These transfers are required to be recorded as of the beginning of the current reporting period as though the assets and liabilities had been transferred at that date. The financial statements and financial information presented for all prior years has been retrospectively adjusted to furnish comparative information.

On September 30, 2012, SL Green transferred $324.9 million of its preferred equity investments to ROP, one of which was subject to a secured $50.0 million loan. Under the Business Combinations guidance, these transfers were determined to be transfers of assets between the indirect parent company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. As such, the assets were transferred at their carrying value and accounted for prospectively from the date of transfer.

As of December 31, 2013, we owned the following interests in commercial office properties in the New York Metropolitan area, primarily in midtown Manhattan, a borough of New York City. Our investments in the New York Metropolitan area also include investments in Westchester County and Connecticut, which are collectively known as the Suburban commercial office properties:



Location	Ownership	Number of Buildings	Square Feet	Weighted Average Occupancy(1)
Manhattan	Consolidated properties	12	6,866,400	94.6	%
Suburban	Consolidated properties	17	2,785,500	79.1	%
		29	9,651,900	90.2	%

______________________________________________________________________


(1)	The weighted average occupancy represents the total leased square feet divided by total available rentable square feet.

As of December 31, 2013, our Manhattan properties were comprised of nine fee owned properties and three leasehold properties. As of December 31, 2013, our Suburban properties were comprised of 16 fee owned properties and one leasehold property. We refer to our Manhattan and Suburban office properties collectively as our Portfolio.

Our corporate offices are located in midtown Manhattan at 420 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10170. As of December 31, 2013, our corporate staff consisted of approximately 278 persons, including 182 professionals experienced in all

aspects of commercial real estate. We can be contacted at (212) 594-2700. Our indirect parent entity, SL Green, maintains a website at www.slgreen.com. On this website, you can obtain, free of charge, a copy of our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as soon as reasonably practicable after we file such material electronically with, or furnish it to, the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. SL Green has also made available on its website its audit committee charter, compensation committee charter, nominating and corporate governance committee charter, code of business conduct and ethics and corporate governance principles. We do not intend for information contained on SL Green's website to be part of this annual report on Form 10-K. You can also read and copy any materials we file with the SEC at its Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, DC 20549 (1-800-SEC-0330). The SEC maintains an Internet site (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We encourage you to read "Item 1A—Risk Factors" in SL Green and the Operating Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Declines in the demand for office space in New York City, and in particular midtown Manhattan, as well as our Suburban markets, including Westchester County and Connecticut, could adversely affect the value of our real estate portfolio and our results of operations and, consequently, our ability to service current debt and make distributions to SL Green.

Most of our commercial office properties, based on square footage, are located in midtown Manhattan. As a result, our business is dependent on the condition of the New York City economy in general and the market for office space in midtown Manhattan in particular. Future weakness and uncertainty in the New York City economy could materially reduce the value of our real estate portfolio and our rental revenues, and thus adversely affect our cash flow and ability to service current debt and make distributions to SL Green. Similarly, future weakness and uncertainty in our suburban markets could adversely affect our cash flow and ability to service current debt and to make distributions to SL Green.

We may be unable to renew leases or relet space as leases expire.

When our tenants decide not to renew their leases upon their expiration, we may not be able to relet the space. Even if tenants do renew or we can relet the space, the terms of renewal or reletting, taking into account among other things, the cost of tenant improvements and leasing commissions, may be less favorable than the terms in the expired leases. As of December 31, 2013, approximately 2.7 million square feet, representing approximately 30.2% of the rentable square feet, are scheduled to expire by December 31, 2018 at our consolidated properties. As of December 31, 2013, these leases had annualized escalated rent totaling approximately $148.9 million. We also have leases with termination options beyond 2018. If we are unable to promptly renew the leases or relet the space at similar rates, our cash flow and ability to service debt and make distributions to SL Green could be adversely affected.

The expiration of long term leases or operating sublease interests could adversely affect our results of operations.

Our interests in the commercial office properties located at 1185 Avenue of the Americas, 673 First Avenue and 461 Fifth Avenue, in Manhattan and 1055 Washington Boulevard, Stamford, Connecticut are through either long-term leasehold or operating sublease interests in the land and the improvements, rather than by ownership of a fee interest in the land. We have the ability to acquire the fee position at 461 Fifth Avenue for a fixed price on a specific date. Unless we can purchase a fee interest in the underlying land or extend the terms of these leases before their expiration, we will lose our right to operate these properties upon expiration of the leases, which would adversely affect our results of operations. The average remaining term of these long-term leases as of December 31, 2013, including our unilateral extension rights on each of the properties, is approximately 50 years. Pursuant to the leasehold arrangement, we, as tenant under the operating sublease, perform the functions traditionally performed by landlords with respect to our subtenants. We are responsible for not only collecting rent from our subtenants, but also maintaining the property and paying expenses relating to the property. Our share of annualized cash rents of these properties at December 31, 2013 totaled approximately $125.1 million, or 29.9%, of our share of total Portfolio annualized cash rent.

Our results of operations rely on major tenants and insolvency, bankruptcy or receivership of these or other tenants could adversely affect our results of operations.

Giving effect to leases in effect as of December 31, 2013 for consolidated properties, as of that date, our five largest tenants, based on square footage leased, accounted for approximately 15.2% of our share of Portfolio annualized cash rent, with three tenants, Debevoise & Plimpton, LLP, Advance Magazine Group, Fairchild Publications and C.B.S. Broadcasting, Inc., accounting for approximately 5.1%, 2.9% and 2.6% of our share of Portfolio annualized cash rent, respectively. If current conditions in the industries in which our tenants are concentrated deteriorate, we may experience increases in past due accounts, defaults, lower occupancy and reduced effective rents. Our business would be adversely affected if any of our major tenants became insolvent, declared bankruptcy, are put into receivership or otherwise refused to pay rent in a timely fashion or at all.

Adverse economic and geopolitical conditions in general and the Northeastern commercial office markets in particular could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and our ability to service debt and make distributions to SL Green.

Our business may be affected by volatility in the financial and credit markets and other market or economic challenges experienced by the U.S. economy or real estate industry as a whole. Future periods of economic weakness could result in reduced access to credit and/or wider credit spreads. Economic uncertainty, including concern about the stability of the markets generally may lead many lenders and institutional investors to reduce, and in some cases, cease to provide funding to borrowers, which could adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition, and the liquidity and financial condition of our tenants. Our business may also be adversely affected by local economic conditions, as substantially all of our revenues are derived from our properties located in the Northeast, particularly in Manhattan, Westchester County and Connecticut. Because our portfolio consists primarily of commercial office buildings (as compared to a more diversified real estate portfolio) located principally in Manhattan, if economic

Table of Contents

conditions deteriorate, then our results of operations, financial condition and ability to service current debt and to make distributions to SL Green may be adversely affected. Specifically, our business may be affected by the following conditions:


•	significant job losses in the financial and professional services industries which may decrease demand for our office space, causing market rental rates and property values to be negatively impacted;


•	our ability to borrow on terms and conditions that we find acceptable may be limited, which could reduce our ability to pursue acquisition and development opportunities and refinance existing debt, reduce our returns from both our existing operations and our acquisition and development activities and increase our future interest expense;


•	reduced values of our properties, which may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or to obtain debt financing secured by our properties and may reduce the availability of unsecured loans; and


•	reduced liquidity in debt markets and increased credit risk premiums for certain market participants, which may impair our ability to access capital.

We may suffer adverse consequences if our revenues decline since our operating costs do not necessarily decline in proportion to our revenue.

We earn a significant portion of our income from renting our properties. Our operating costs, however, do not necessarily fluctuate in direct proportion to changes in our rental revenue. As a result, our costs will not necessarily decline even if our revenues do. Similarly, our operating costs could increase while our revenues stay flat or decline. In either such event, we may be forced to borrow to cover our costs, we may incur losses or we may not have cash available to service our debt and make distributions to SL Green.

We face risks associated with property acquisitions.

We may acquire individual properties and portfolios of properties, including large portfolios that could significantly increase our size and alter our capital structure. Our acquisition activities may be exposed to, and their success may be adversely affected by, the following risks:


•	we may be unable to meet applicable closing conditions;


•	we may be unable to finance acquisitions on favorable terms or at all;


•	acquired properties may fail to perform as we expected;


•	our estimates of the costs of repositioning or redeveloping acquired properties may be inaccurate;


•	we may not be able to obtain adequate insurance coverage for new properties;


•	acquired properties may be located in new markets where we may face risks associated with a lack of market knowledge or understanding of the local economy, lack of business relationships in the area and unfamiliarity with local governmental and permitting procedures; and


•	we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties, into our existing operations, and therefore our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

We may acquire properties subject to both known and unknown liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse. As a result, if a liability were asserted against us arising from our ownership of those properties, we might have to pay substantial sums to settle it, which could adversely affect our cash flow. Unknown liabilities with respect to properties acquired might include:


•	claims by tenants, vendors or other persons arising from dealing with the former owners of the properties;


•	liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business;


•	claims for indemnification by general partners, directors, officers and others indemnified by the former owners of the properties; and


•	liabilities for clean-up of undisclosed environmental contamination.

Competition for acquisitions may reduce the number of acquisition opportunities available to us and increase the costs of those acquisitions.

We plan to continue to acquire properties as we are presented with attractive opportunities. We may face competition for acquisition opportunities from other investors, particularly those investors who are willing to incur more leverage, and this competition may adversely affect us by subjecting us to the following risks:

Table of Contents


•	an inability to acquire a desired property because of competition from other well-capitalized real estate investors, including publicly traded and privately held REITs, private real estate funds, domestic and foreign financial institutions, life insurance companies, sovereign wealth funds, pension trusts, partnerships and individual investors; and


•	an increase in the purchase price for such acquisition property, in the event we are able to acquire such desired property.

We rely on five large properties for a significant portion of our revenue.

As of December 31, 2013, five of our properties, 1185 Avenue of the Americas, 1350 Avenue of the Americas, 919 Third Avenue, 810 Seventh Avenue and 750 Third Avenue, accounted for approximately 58.0% of our Portfolio annualized cash rent, and 1185 Avenue of the Americas alone accounted for approximately 19.5% of our Portfolio annualized cash rent. Our revenue and cash available to service our debt and to make distributions to SL Green would be materially adversely affected if the ground lease for the 1185 Avenue of the Americas property were terminated for any reason or if any of these properties were materially damaged or destroyed. Additionally, our revenue and cash available to service debt and make distributions to SL Green would be materially adversely affected if tenants at these properties fail to timely make rental payments due to adverse financial conditions or otherwise, default under their leases or file for bankruptcy.

The continuing threat of terrorist attacks may adversely affect the value of our properties and our ability to generate cash flow.

There may be a decrease in demand for space in New York City because it is considered at risk for future terrorist attacks, and this decrease may reduce our revenues from property rentals. In the aftermath of a terrorist attack, tenants in the New York Metropolitan area may choose to relocate their business to less populated, lower-profile areas of the United States that those tenants believe are not as likely to be targets of future terrorist activity. This in turn could trigger a decrease in the demand for space in the New York Metropolitan area, which could increase vacancies in our properties and force us to lease our properties on less favorable terms. As a result, the value of our properties and the level of our revenues could materially decline.

A terrorist attack could cause insurance premiums to increase significantly.

ROP is insured through a program administered by SL Green. SL Green maintains "all-risk" property and rental value coverage (including coverage regarding the perils of flood, earthquake and terrorism) within two property insurance portfolios and liability insurance. This includes ROP assets. As of December 31, 2013, the first property portfolio maintains a blanket limit of $950.0 million per occurrence, including terrorism, for the majority of the New York City properties in our portfolio. The second portfolio maintains a limit of $700.0 million per occurrence, including terrorism, for some New York City properties and the majority of the Suburban properties. Both policies expire on December 31, 2014. Each policy includes $100.0 million of flood coverage, with a lower sublimit for locations in high hazard flood zones. SL Green maintains liability policies which cover all our properties and provide limits of $201.0 million per occurrence and in the aggregate per location. The liability policies expire on October 31, 2014. Additional coverage may be purchased on a stand-alone basis for certain assets.

In October 2006, SL Green formed a wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary, Belmont Insurance Company, or Belmont, to act as a captive insurance company and be one of the elements of its overall insurance program. Belmont was formed in an effort to, among other reasons, stabilize to some extent the fluctuations of insurance market conditions. Belmont is licensed in New York to write Terrorism, NBCR (nuclear, biological, chemical, and radiological), General Liability, Environmental Liability, Flood and D&O coverage.

The Terrorism Risk Insurance Act, or TRIA, which was enacted in November 2002, was renewed on December 31, 2005 and again on December 31, 2007. Congress extended TRIA, now called TRIPRA (Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization and Extension Act of 2007) until December 31, 2014. The law extends the federal Terrorism Insurance Program that requires insurance companies to offer terrorism coverage and provides for compensation for insured losses resulting from acts of certified terrorism, subject to the current program trigger of $100.0 million. There is no assurance that TRIPRA will be extended. Our debt instruments, consisting of a non-recourse mortgage note secured by one of our properties, mezzanine loans, ground leases, our 2012 credit facility, senior unsecured notes and other corporate obligations, contain customary covenants requiring us to maintain insurance. Although we believe that we currently maintain sufficient insurance coverage to satisfy these obligations, there is no assurance that in the future we will be able to procure coverage at a reasonable cost. In such instances, there can be no assurance that the lenders or ground lessors under these instruments will not take the position that a total or partial exclusion from "all-risk" insurance coverage for losses due to terrorist acts is a breach of these debt and ground lease instruments allowing the lenders or ground lessors to declare an event of default and accelerate repayment of debt or recapture of ground lease positions. In addition, if lenders prevail in asserting that we are required to maintain full coverage for these risks it could result in substantially higher insurance premiums.

In connection with this program we incurred insurance expense of approximately $5.1 million, $4.6 million and $4.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Table of Contents

We face possible risks associated with the physical effects of climate change.

We cannot predict with certainty whether climate change is occurring and, if so, at what rate. However, the physical effects of climate change could have a material adverse effect on our properties, operations and business. To the extent climate change causes changes in weather patterns, our markets could experience increases in storm intensity and rising sea-levels. Over time, these conditions could result in declining demand for office space in our buildings or the inability of us to operate the buildings at all. Climate change may also have indirect effects on our business by increasing the cost of (or making unavailable) property insurance on terms we find acceptable, increasing the cost of energy and increasing the cost of snow removal at our properties. There can be no assurance that climate change will not have a material adverse effect on our properties, operations or business.

Leasing office space to smaller and growth-oriented businesses could adversely affect our cash flow and results of operations.

Some of the tenants in our properties are smaller, growth-oriented businesses that may not have the financial strength of larger corporate tenants. Smaller companies generally experience a higher rate of failure than large businesses. Growth-oriented firms may also seek other office space as they develop. Leasing office space to these companies could create a higher risk of tenant defaults, turnover and bankruptcies, which could adversely affect our distributable cash flow and results of operations.

Debt financing, financial covenants, degree of leverage, and increases in interest rates could adversely affect our economic performance.

Scheduled debt payments could adversely affect our results of operations.

Cash flow could be insufficient to make distributions to SL Green and meet the payments of principal and interest required under our current mortgages and other indebtedness, including our 2012 credit facility, senior unsecured notes and debentures. We, SL Green, and the Operating Partnership are all borrowers jointly and severally obligated under the 2012 credit facility.

The total principal amount of our outstanding consolidated indebtedness was approximately $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2013, consisting of approximately $620.0 million under our 2012 credit facility, which is inclusive of our $400.0 million term loan, $1.0 billion under our senior unsecured notes and convertible notes, and approximately $550.0 million of non-recourse mortgage note and other loans payable. In addition, we could increase the amount of our outstanding indebtedness in the future, in part by borrowing under our 2012 credit facility, which had $0.9 billion undrawn capacity as of December 31, 2013. Our 2012 credit facility in aggregate matures in March 2018, which includes two six-month extension options on the $1.2 billion revolving credit facility component of the facility.

If we are unable to make payments under our 2012 credit facility, all amounts due and owing at such time shall accrue interest at a rate equal to 2% higher than the rate at which each draw was made. If we are unable to make payments under our senior unsecured notes, the principal and unpaid interest will become immediately payable. If a property is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness and we are unable to meet mortgage payments, the mortgagee could foreclose on the property, resulting in loss of income and asset value. Foreclosure on mortgaged properties or an inability to make payments under our 2012 credit facility or our senior unsecured notes would have a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

We may not be able to refinance existing indebtedness, which may require substantial principal payments at maturity. In 2014, approximately $75.9 million of corporate indebtedness will mature. At the present time, we intend to exercise extension options, repay or refinance the debt associated with our properties on or prior to their respective maturity dates. At the time of refinancing, prevailing interest rates or other factors, such as the possible reluctance of lenders to make commercial real estate loans may result in higher interest rates. Increased interest expense on the refinanced debt would adversely affect cash flow and our ability to service debt and make distributions to SL Green. If any principal payments due at maturity cannot be repaid, refinanced or extended, our cash flow will not be sufficient in all years to repay all maturing debt.

Financial covenants could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business.

The mortgages on our properties generally contain customary negative covenants that limit our ability to further mortgage the properties, to enter into material leases without lender consent or materially modify existing leases, and to discontinue insurance coverage, among other things. In addition, our 2012 credit facility and senior unsecured notes contain restrictions and requirements on our method of operations. Our 2012 credit facility and our senior unsecured notes also require us to maintain designated ratios, including but not limited to, total debt-to-assets, debt service coverage and unencumbered assets-to-unsecured debt. These restrictions could adversely affect operations, our ability to pay debt obligations and make distributions to SL Green.

Rising interest rates could adversely affect our cash flow.

Advances under our 2012 credit facility of approximately $620.0 million at December 31, 2013 bear interest at a variable rate. In addition, we could increase the amount of our outstanding variable rate debt in the future, in part by borrowing under our 2012 credit facility, which consisted of a $1.2 billion revolving credit facility and $400.0 million term loan and had $0.9 billion available for draw as of December 31, 2013. Borrowings under our revolving credit facility and term loan bore interest at the 30-day LIBOR, plus spreads of 145 basis points and 165 basis points, respectively, at December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2013,

Table of Contents

borrowings under our 2012 credit facility bore weighted average interest at 1.86%. We may incur indebtedness in the future that also bears interest at a variable rate or may be required to refinance our debt at higher rates. Accordingly, increases in interest rates could adversely affect our results of operations and financial conditions. At December 31, 2013, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates across each of our variable interest rate instruments would increase our annual interest costs by approximately $5.9 million. Accordingly, increases in interest rates could adversely affect our ability to continue to service debt and make distributions to SL Green.

Failure to hedge effectively against interest rate changes may adversely affect results of operations.

The interest rate hedge instruments we use to manage some of our exposure to interest rate volatility involve risk, such as the risk that counterparties may fail to honor their obligations under these arrangements. In addition, these arrangements may not be effective in reducing our exposure to interest rate changes. Failure to hedge effectively against interest rate changes may adversely affect our results of operations.

No limitation on debt could adversely affect our cash flow.

SL Green considers its business as a whole in determining the amount of leverage of itself and its subsidiaries, including us. SL Green also considers other factors in making decisions regarding the incurrence of indebtedness, such as the purchase price of properties to be acquired with debt financing, the estimated market value of our properties upon refinancing and the ability of particular properties and our business as a whole to generate cash flow to cover expected debt service. Our organizational documents do not contain any limitation on the amount of indebtedness we may incur. As a result, if we become more highly leveraged, an increase in debt service could adversely affect cash available for distributions to SL Green and could increase the risk of default on our indebtedness.

Debt and preferred equity investments could cause us to incur expenses, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

We owned preferred equity investments with an aggregate net book value of approximately $369.4 million at December 31, 2013. Such investments may or may not be recourse obligations of the borrower and are not insured or guaranteed by governmental agencies or otherwise. In the event of a default under these obligations, we may have to take possession of the collateral securing these interests. Borrowers may contest enforcement of foreclosure or other remedies, seek bankruptcy protection against such enforcement and/or bring claims for lender liability in response to actions to enforce their obligations to us. Declines in the value of the property may prevent us from realizing an amount equal to our investment upon foreclosure or realization even if we make substantial improvements or repairs to the underlying real estate in order to maximize such property's investment potential.

We maintain and regularly evaluate the need for reserves to protect against potential future losses. Our reserves reflect management's judgment of the probability and severity of losses and the value of the underlying collateral. We cannot be certain that our judgment will prove to be correct and that our reserves will be adequate over time to protect against future losses because of unanticipated adverse changes in the economy or events adversely affecting specific properties, assets, tenants, borrowers, industries in which our tenants and borrowers operate or markets in which our tenants and borrowers or their properties are located. If our reserves for credit losses prove inadequate, we could suffer losses which would have a material adverse effect on our financial performance and our ability to service debt and make distributions to SL Green.

We may incur costs to comply with environmental laws.

We are subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws. These laws regulate our use, storage, disposal and management of hazardous substances and wastes and can impose liability on property owners or operators for the clean-up of certain hazardous substances released on a property and any associated damage to natural resources without regard to whether the release was legal or whether it was caused by the property owner or operator. The presence of hazardous substances on our properties may adversely affect occupancy and our ability to develop or sell or borrow against those properties. In addition to potential liability for clean-up costs, private plaintiffs may bring claims for personal injury, property damage or for similar reasons. Various laws also impose liability for the clean-up of contamination at any facility (e.g., a landfill) to which we have sent hazardous substances for treatment or disposal, without regard to whether the materials were transported, treated and disposed in accordance with law. Being held responsible for such a clean-up could result in significant cost to us and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We may incur significant costs complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act and other regulatory and legal requirements.

Our properties may be subject to risks relating to current or future laws including laws benefiting disabled persons, and other state or local zoning, construction or other regulations. These laws may require significant property modifications in the future which could result in fines being levied against us in the future. The occurrence of any of these events could have an adverse impact on our cash flows and ability to service debt and make distributions to SL Green.

Table of Contents

Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, or ADA, all public accommodations must meet federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. Additional federal, state and local laws also may require modifications to our properties, or restrict our ability to renovate our properties. We have not conducted an audit or investigation of all of our properties to determine our compliance. If one or more of our properties is not in compliance with the ADA or other legislation, then we may be required to incur additional costs to bring the property into compliance with the ADA or similar state or local laws. We cannot predict the ultimate amount of the cost of compliance with ADA or other legislation. If we incur substantial costs to comply with the ADA and any other legislation, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flow and/or ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to make distributions to SL Green could be adversely affected.

We face potential conflicts of interest.

Members of management may have a conflict of interest over whether to enforce terms of agreements with entities which Mr. Green, directly or indirectly, has an affiliation.

Through Alliance Building Services, or Alliance, First Quality Maintenance, L.P., or First Quality, provides cleaning, extermination and related services, Classic Security LLC provides security services, Bright Star Couriers LLC provides messenger services, and Onyx Restoration Works provides restoration services with respect to certain properties owned by us. Alliance is partially owned by Gary Green, a son of Stephen L. Green, the chairman of SL Green's board of directors. In addition, First Quality has the non-exclusive opportunity to provide cleaning and related services to individual tenants at our properties on a basis separately negotiated with any tenant seeking such additional services. SL Green, including us, and our tenants accounted for approximately 17.2% of Alliance's 2013 estimated total revenue. The contracts pursuant to which these services are provided are not the result of arm's length negotiations and, therefore, there can be no assurance that the terms and conditions are not less favorable than those which could be obtained from third parties providing comparable services. In addition, to the extent that we choose to enforce our rights under any of these agreements, we may determine to pursue available remedies, such as actions for damages or injunctive relief, less vigorously than we otherwise might because of our desire to maintain our ongoing relationship with Gary Green.

As of December 31, 2013, services were being provided by these entities to 12 of the properties owned by ROP.

Members of management may have a conflict of interest over whether to enforce terms of senior management's employment and noncompetition agreements.

Stephen L. Green, Marc Holliday, Andrew Mathias, Andrew Levine and James Mead entered into employment and noncompetition agreements with SL Green pursuant to which they have agreed not to actively engage in the acquisition, development, management, leasing or financing of commercial office, multifamily residential and retail real estate in the New York City Metropolitan area. For the most part, these restrictions apply to the executive both during his employment and for a period of time thereafter. Each executive is also prohibited from otherwise disrupting or interfering with our business through the solicitation of our employees or clients or otherwise. To the extent that SL Green chooses to enforce its rights under any of these agreements, SL Green may determine to pursue available remedies, such as actions for damages or injunctive relief, less vigorously than it otherwise might because of its desire to maintain an ongoing relationship with the individual involved. Additionally, the non-competition provisions of these agreements despite being limited in scope and duration, could be difficult to enforce, or may be subject to limited enforcement, should litigation arise over them in the future. Mr. Green also has interests in two properties in Manhattan, which are exempt from the non-competition provisions of his employment and non-competition agreement.

SL Green's failure to qualify as a REIT would be costly.

We believe that SL Green has operated in a manner to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and SL Green intends to continue to so operate. Many of the REIT compliance requirements, however, are highly technical and complex. The determination that SL Green is a REIT requires an analysis of factual matters and circumstances. These matters, some of which are not totally within our or SL Green's control, can affect its qualification as a REIT. For example, to qualify as a REIT, at least 95% of SL Green's gross income must come from designated sources that are listed in the REIT tax laws. SL Green is also required to distribute to stockholders at least 90% of its REIT taxable income excluding capital gains. The fact that SL Green holds its assets through the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries further complicates the application of the REIT requirements. Even a technical or inadvertent mistake could jeopardize SL Green's REIT status. Furthermore, Congress and the Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, might make changes to the tax laws and regulations, and the courts might issue new rulings that make it more difficult, or impossible, for SL Green to remain qualified as a REIT.

If SL Green fails to qualify as a REIT, it would be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates. Also, unless the IRS grants SL Green relief under specific statutory provisions, it would remain disqualified as a REIT for four years following the year it first failed to qualify. If SL Green failed to qualify as a REIT, it would have to pay significant income taxes and ROP would therefore have less money available for investments, to service indebtedness or make distributions to SL Green.

Table of Contents

SL Green would incur adverse tax consequences if RARC failed to qualify as a REIT.

SL Green has assumed that RARC has historically qualified as a REIT for United States federal income tax purposes and that SL Green would continue to be able to qualify as a REIT following the Merger. However, if RARC failed to qualify as a REIT, SL Green generally would have succeeded to significant tax liabilities including the significant tax liability that would result from a deemed sale of assets by RARC pursuant to the Merger.

We face significant competition for tenants.

The leasing of real estate is highly competitive. The principal means of competition are rent, location, services provided and the nature and condition of the facility to be leased. We directly compete with all owners and developers of similar space in the areas in which our properties are located.

Our commercial office properties are concentrated in highly developed areas of midtown Manhattan and certain Suburban central business districts, or CBDs. Manhattan is the largest office market in the United States. The number of competitive office properties in Manhattan and CBDs in which our Suburban properties are located (which may be newer or better located than our properties) could have a material adverse effect on our ability to lease office space at our properties, and on the effective rents we are able to charge.

Loss of our key personnel could harm our operations.

We are dependent on the efforts of Marc Holliday, the chief executive officer of SL Green and president of Wyoming Acquisition GP LLC, or WAGP, the sole general partner of ROP, and Andrew Mathias, the president of SL Green. These officers have employment agreements which expire in January 2016 and December 2016, respectively. A loss of the services of either of these individuals could adversely affect our operations.

Our business and operations would suffer in the event of system failures or cyber security attacks.

Despite system redundancy, the implementation of security measures and the existence of a Disaster Recovery Plan for our internal information technology systems, our systems are vulnerable to damages from any number of sources, including energy blackouts, natural disasters, terrorism, war, telecommunication failures and cyber security attacks, such as computer viruses or unauthorized access. Any system failure or accident that causes interruptions in our operations could result in a material disruption to our business. We may also incur additional costs to remedy damages caused by such disruptions. Any compromise of our security could also result in a violation of applicable privacy and other laws, significant legal and financial exposure, damage to our reputation, loss or misuse of the information and a loss of confidence in our security measures, which could harm our business.

Compliance with changing or new regulations applicable to corporate governance and public disclosure may result in additional expenses, affect our operations and affect our reputation.

Changing or new laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including SEC regulations and NYSE rules, can create uncertainty for public companies. These changed or new laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations in many cases due to their lack of specificity. As a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies, which could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. We are committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance and public disclosure. If our efforts to comply with new or changed laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, our reputation may be harmed.

Our efforts to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards have resulted in, and are likely to continue to result in, increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. In particular, our efforts to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related regulations regarding our required assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting have required the commitment of significant financial and managerial resources. We expect these efforts to require the continued commitment of significant resources. Further, our directors, president and treasurer could face an increased risk of personal liability in connection with the performance of their duties. As a result, we may have difficulty attracting and retaining qualified directors and executive officers, which could harm our business.

Our Portfolio

General

As of December 31, 2013, we owned or held interests in 12 consolidated commercial office properties encompassing approximately 6.9 million rentable square feet, located primarily in midtown Manhattan.

(1)

Annualized Cash Rent represents the monthly contractual rent under existing leases as of December 31, 2013 multiplied by 12. This amount reflects total rent before any rent abatements and includes expense reimbursements, which may be estimated as of such date. Total rent abatements for leases in effect as of December 31, 2013 for the 12 months ending December 31, 2014 are approximately $10.4 million for our consolidated properties.


(2)	Annualized Cash Rent Per Leased Square Foot represents Annualized Cash Rent, as described in footnote (1) above, presented on a per leased square foot basis.


(3)	We hold a leasehold interest in this property.

Historical Occupancy

SL Green has historically achieved consistently higher occupancy rates in our Manhattan portfolio in comparison to the overall midtown markets, as shown over the last five years in the following table:



	Percent of Manhattan Portfolio Occupied(1)		Occupancy Rate of Class A Office Properties in the midtown Markets(2)(3)		Occupancy Rate of Class B Office Properties in the midtown Markets(2)(3)

The term "Class B" is generally used in the Manhattan office market to describe office properties that are more than 25 years old but that are in good physical condition, enjoy widespread acceptance by high-quality tenants and are situated in desirable locations in Manhattan. Class B office properties can be distinguished from Class A properties in that Class A properties are generally newer properties with higher finishes and frequently obtain the highest rental rates within their markets.

Lease Expirations

Leases in our Manhattan portfolio, as at many other Manhattan office properties, typically have an initial term of seven to fifteen years, compared to typical lease terms of five to ten years in other large U.S. office markets. For the five years ending December 31, 2018, the average annual rollover at our Manhattan consolidated properties is expected to be approximately 0.3 million square feet representing an average annual expiration rate of 5.1% per year (assuming no tenants exercise renewal or cancellation options and there are no tenant bankruptcies or other tenant defaults).

The following tables set forth a schedule of the annual lease expirations at our Manhattan consolidated properties, with respect to leases in place as of December 31, 2013 for each of the next ten years and thereafter (assuming that no tenants exercise renewal or cancellation options and that there no tenant bankruptcies or other tenant defaults):

Annualized Cash Rent of Expiring Leases represents the monthly contractual rent under existing leases as of December 31, 2013 multiplied by 12. This amount reflects total rent before any rent abatements and includes expense reimbursements, which may be estimated as of such date. Total rent abatements for leases in effect as of December 31, 2013 for the 12 months ending December 31, 2014, are reductions of approximately $8.0 million for the properties.

Leases in our Suburban portfolio, as at many other suburban office properties, typically have an initial term of five to ten years. For the five years ending December 31, 2018, the average annual rollover at our Suburban consolidated properties is expected to be approximately 0.2 million square feet, representing an average annual expiration rate of 8.8% per year (assuming no tenants exercise renewal or cancellation options and there are no tenant bankruptcies or other tenant defaults).

Annualized Cash Rent of Expiring Leases represents the monthly contractual rent under existing leases as of December 31, 2013 multiplied by 12. This amount reflects total rent before any rent abatements and includes expense reimbursements, which may be estimated as of such date. Total rent abatements for leases in effect as of December 31, 2013 for the 12 months ending December 31, 2014 are reductions of approximately $2.4 million for the suburban properties.


(2)	Annualized Cash Rent Per Leased Square Foot of Expiring Leases represents Annualized Cash Rent of Expiring Leases, as described in footnote (1) above, presented on a per leased square foot basis.


(3)	Includes 3,483 square feet occupied by month-to-month holdover tenants whose leases expired prior to December 31, 2013.

Tenant Diversification

At December 31, 2013, our portfolio was occupied by approximately 380 tenants, which are engaged in a variety of businesses, including professional services, financial services, media, apparel, business services and government/non-profit. The following table sets forth information regarding the leases with respect to the ten largest tenants in our portfolio, based on the amount of square footage leased by our tenants as of December 31, 2013:

Environmental Matters

We engaged independent environmental consulting firms to perform Phase I environmental site assessments on our portfolio, in order to assess existing environmental conditions. All of the Phase I assessments met the ASTM Standard. Under the ASTM Standard, a Phase I environmental site assessment consists of a site visit, an historical record review, a review of regulatory agency data bases and records, and interviews with on-site personnel, with the purpose of identifying potential environmental concerns associated with real estate. These environmental site assessments did not reveal any known environmental liability that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

As of December 31, 2013, we were not involved in any material litigation nor, to management's knowledge, was any material litigation threatened against us or our portfolio other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business or litigation that is adequately covered by insurance.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF

OPERATIONS

Overview

Reckson Operating Partnership, L.P., or ROP, commenced operations on June 2, 1995. The sole general partner of ROP is a wholly-owned subsidiary of SL Green Operating Partnership, L.P., or the Operating Partnership. The sole limited partner of ROP is the Operating Partnership. SL Green Realty Corp., or SL Green, is the general partner of the Operating Partnership. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to "we," "our," "us" and the "Company" means ROP and all entities owned or controlled by ROP.

ROP is engaged in the acquisition, ownership, management, operation, acquisition, leasing and financing of commercial real estate properties, principally office properties, and also owns land for future development located in the New York City, Westchester County and Connecticut, which collectively is also known as the New York Metropolitan area.

The following discussion related to our consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements appearing in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and Item 8 of SL Green and the Operating Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The New York City commercial real estate market continued to strengthen in 2013, and we took advantage of this strengthening market in improving occupancies and deploying capital in the borough of Manhattan to strategically position the Company for future growth.

Leasing and Operating

SL Green has historically outperformed the Manhattan office market, and did so again in 2013. SL Green's Manhattan office property occupancy on same-store properties based on leases signed increased to 96.6% from 95.1% in the prior year. During 2013, SL Green signed office leases in Manhattan encompassing 5.2 million square feet, of which 4.3 million square feet represented office leases that replaced previously occupied space. SL Green's mark-to-market on these 4.3 million square feet of signed Manhattan office leases that replaced previously occupied space was 9.5% for 2013.

New leasing activity in Manhattan in 2013 totaled 25.7 million square feet, slightly below the ten-year average but higher than 2012. Of the total 2013 leasing activity in Manhattan, the Midtown submarket accounted for approximately 16.0 million square feet, or 62.3%. Midtown's overall office vacancy increased from 10.3% at December 31, 2012 to 11.2% at December 31, 2013. However, 1.2 million square feet of new office space was added to the Midtown office inventory, with approximately 2.2 million square feet (0.6% of the total 395.3 million square foot Manhattan office inventory) currently under construction and scheduled to be placed in service by 2015 or early 2016.

Demand for space in certain sub-markets such as Midtown South and a lack of new supply created conditions in which asking rents for direct space in Midtown South increased during 2013 by 27.3% to $63.67 per square foot. Asking rents for direct space in Midtown increased during 2013 by 2.6% to $70.54 per square foot and have increased by 10.5% since the recessionary trough in in the first quarter of 2010. Over the same period, net effective rents (which take into consideration leasing concessions) have increased by 21.5%.

Assets Transfer

In connection with the closing of our 2011 revolving credit facility and 2012 credit facility, in which we, along with SL Green and the Operating Partnership are borrowers, SL Green transferred five properties, with total assets aggregating to $683.8 million at November 2011, and transferred three additional properties, with total assets aggregating to $320.2 million at December 31, 2012, to ROP. Under the Business Combinations guidance, these were determined to be transfers of businesses between the indirect parent company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. As such, the assets and liabilities were transferred at their carrying value. These transfers are required to be recorded as of the beginning of the current reporting period as though the assets and liabilities had been transferred at that date. The consolidated financial statements and financial information presented for all prior years have been retrospectively adjusted to furnish comparative information.



Location	Ownership	Number of Buildings	Square Feet	Weighted Average Occupancy(1)
Manhattan	Consolidated properties	12	6,866,400	94.6	%
Suburban	Consolidated properties	17	2,785,500	79.1	%
		29	9,651,900	90.2	%

______________________________________________________________________


(1)	The weighted average occupancy represents the total leased square feet divided by total available rentable square feet.

At December 31, 2013, we also own a mixed-use residential and commercial building encompassing approximately 493,000 square feet, a development property encompassing approximately 104,000 square feet and an inventory of development parcels that aggregated approximately 81 acres of land in four separate parcels on which we can, based on estimates at December 31, 2013, develop approximately 1.1 million square feet of office space and in which we have invested approximately $67.2 million. As of December 31, 2013, we also held preferred equity investments with a book value of $369.4 million.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and contingencies as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate our assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Investment in Commercial Real Estate Properties

On a periodic basis, we assess whether there are any indications that the value of our real estate properties may be impaired or that their carrying value may not be recoverable. A property's value is considered impaired if management's estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges for consolidated properties) to be generated by the property is less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss will be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the calculated fair value of the property. We do not believe that the values of any of our consolidated properties were impaired at December 31, 2013.

A variety of costs are incurred in the development and leasing of our properties. After determination is made to capitalize a cost, it is allocated to the specific component of a project that is benefited. Determination of when a development project is substantially complete and capitalization must cease involves a degree of judgment. The costs of land and building under development include specifically identifiable costs. The capitalized costs include, but are not limited to, pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development costs, construction costs, interest costs, real estate taxes, salaries and related costs and other costs incurred during the period of development. We consider a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity. We cease capitalization on the portions substantially completed and occupied or held available for occupancy, and capitalize only those costs associated with the portions under construction.

We allocate the purchase price of real estate to land and building (inclusive of tenant improvements) and, if determined to be material, intangibles, such as the value of above- and below-market leases and origination costs associated with the in-place leases. We depreciate the amount allocated to building (inclusive of tenant improvements) and other intangible assets over their estimated useful lives, which generally range from three to 40 years and from one to 14 years, respectively. The values of the above- and below-market leases are amortized and recorded as either an increase (in the case of below-market leases) or a decrease (in the case of above-market leases) to rental income over the remaining term of the associated lease, which generally range from one to 14 years. The values associated with in-place leases are amortized over the expected term of the associated lease, which generally range from one to 14 years. If a tenant vacates its space prior to the contractual termination of the lease and no rental payments are being made on the lease, any unamortized balance of the related intangible will be written off. The tenant improvements and origination costs are amortized as an expense over the remaining life of the lease (or charged against earnings if the lease is terminated prior to its contractual expiration date). We assess fair value of the leases based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect the property. To the extent acquired leases contain fixed rate renewal options that are below market and determined to be material, we amortize such below market lease value into rental income over the renewal period.

Revenue Recognition

Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The excess of rents recognized over amounts contractually due pursuant to the underlying leases are included in deferred rents receivable on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. We establish, on a current basis, an allowance for future potential tenant credit losses, which may occur against this account. The balance reflected on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets is net of such allowance.

Interest income on preferred equity investments is recognized over the life of the investment using the effective interest method and recognized on the accrual basis. Fees received in connection with loan commitments are deferred until the loan is funded and are then recognized over the term of the loan as an adjustment to yield. Anticipated exit fees, whose collection is expected, are also recognized over the term of the loan as an adjustment to yield. Fees on commitments that expire unused are recognized at expiration.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our tenants to make required payments. If the financial condition of a specific tenant were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of its ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Reserve for Possible Credit Losses

The expense for possible credit losses in connection with preferred equity investments is the charge to earnings to increase the allowance for possible credit losses to the level that we estimate to be adequate, based on Level 3 data, considering delinquencies, loss experience and collateral quality. Other factors considered relate to geographic trends and product diversification, the size of the portfolio and current economic conditions. Based upon these factors, we establish the provision for possible credit loss on each individual investment. When it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts contractually due, the investment is considered impaired.

Where impairment is indicated on an investment that is held to maturity, a valuation allowance is measured based upon the excess of the recorded investment amount over the net fair value of the collateral. Any deficiency between the carrying amount of an asset and the calculated value of the collateral is charged to expense. The write off of the reserve balance is called a charge off. We continue to assess or adjust our estimates based on circumstances of a loan and the underlying collateral. If the additional information obtained reflects increased recovery of our investment, we will adjust our reserves accordingly. There were no additional loan reserves recorded during the year ended December 31, 2013. We recorded loan loss reserves of zero and $0.7 million on investments held to maturity during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We also recorded recoveries of $0.5 million and $3.1 million during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, in connection with the sale of our investments. This is included in loan loss reserves, net of recoveries on the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Derivative Instruments

In the normal course of business, we use a variety of derivative instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risk. We require that hedging derivative instruments be effective in reducing the interest rate risk exposure that they are designated to hedge if the hedge is to qualify for hedge accounting. Some derivative instruments are associated with an anticipated transaction. In those cases, hedge effectiveness criteria also require that it be probable that the underlying transaction occurs. Instruments that meet these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the inception of the derivative contract.

To determine the fair values of derivative instruments, we use a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each balance sheet date. For the majority of financial instruments including most derivatives, long-term investments and long-term debt, standard market conventions and techniques such as discounted cash flow analysis, option-pricing models, replacement cost, and termination cost are used to determine fair value. All methods of assessing fair value result in a general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized.

Rental, Escalation and Reimbursement Revenues

Occupancy for our Manhattan portfolio was 94.6% at December 31, 2013 compared to 96.0% at December 31, 2012. Occupancy for our Suburban portfolio was 79.1% at December 31, 2013 compared to 79.5% at December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2013, approximately 4.3% and 7.8% of the space leased at our consolidated Manhattan and Suburban office properties, respectively, is expected to expire during 2014. Based on our estimates, the current market rents on all our consolidated Manhattan office properties for leases that are expected to expire during 2014 would be approximately 15.3% higher than the existing in-place fully escalated rents while the current market rents on all our consolidated Manhattan properties for leases that are scheduled to expire in future years would be approximately 10.4% higher than the existing in-place fully escalated rents. Based on our estimates, the current market rents on all our consolidated Suburban office properties for leases that are expected to expire during 2014 would be approximately 7.3% lower than the existing in-place fully escalated rents while the current market rents on all our consolidated Suburban properties for leases that are scheduled to expire in future years would be approximately 3.1% higher than the existing in-place fully escalated rents.

Rental revenues depend on our ability to maintain the occupancy rates of currently leased space and to lease currently available space and space available from unscheduled lease terminations.

Rental revenue increased primarily as a result of the acquisitions of 641 Sixth Avenue in September 2012 ($8.1 million), 304 Park Avenue South in June 2012 ($4.8 million) and 315 West 33rd Street in November 2013 ($3.4 million).

Escalation and reimbursement revenue was flat compared to prior year primarily as a result of higher real estate tax recoveries from non-acquisition properties ($1.5 million) and the acquisitions of 641 Sixth Avenue ($0.7 million), 315 West 33rd Street ($0.6 million) and 304 Park Avenue South ($0.4 million), partially offset by lower electric reimbursements ($1.8 million) from non-acquisition properties.

Investment Income

Investment income increased primarily as a result of the preferred equity investments that were transferred to us by SL Green in September 2012 ($33.7 million).

Other Income

Other income decreased primarily as a result of real estate tax refunds in 2012 ($1.1 million).

Property Operating Expenses

Property operating expenses increased primarily as a result of higher real estate taxes resulting from higher assessed values and tax rates ($3.8 million) from non-acquisition properties, the acquisitions of 641 Sixth Avenue ($3.0 million), 304 Park Avenue South ($2.2 million) and 315 West 33rd Street ($1.8 million), the extension and modification of the terms of the ground lease at 673 First Avenue in September 2012 ($1.6 million), and increased payroll costs ($1.3 million), professional fees ($0.7 million), repairs and maintenance ($0.5 million) and contract maintenance ($0.5 million) from non-acquisition properties, partially offset by lower utility expenses ($0.9 million).

Interest Expense, Net of Interest Income

Interest expense, net of interest income increased primarily as a result of the issuance of a $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.5% senior notes due 2022 in November 2012 ($8.1 million) and the assumption of the $50.0 million loan ($3.1 million), partially offset by the repayment of debt at 609 Fifth Avenue ($6.2 million) and 110 East 42nd Street ($3.7 million) in December 2012.

Transaction Related Costs

Transaction related costs pertained to costs associated with the acquisitions of 315 West 33rd Street in 2013 as well as 304 Park Avenue South and 641 Sixth Avenue in 2012.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

Depreciation and amortization expense increased primarily as a result of the acquisitions of 304 Park Avenue South ($2.1 million), 315 West 33rd Street ($0.9 million) and 641 Sixth Avenue ($0.6 million) and the remaining increase primarily resulting from increased capital expenditures at the non-acquisition properties.

Equity in Net Income from Unconsolidated Joint Venture

Equity in net income from unconsolidated joint venture increased primarily as a result of the early redemption of the underlying preferred equity investment of our equity investment in 2013.

Equity in Net Gain on Sale of Interest in Unconsolidated Joint Venture/Real Estate

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we recognized a gain from the sale of One Court Square ($1.0 million).

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2013 included the gain on sale recognized for 333 West 34th Street ($13.8 million), which closed in August 2013, as well as its results of operations. Prior year's results of operations were reclassified to discontinued operations to conform with the current presentation.

Rental, Escalation and Reimbursement Revenues

Occupancy for our Manhattan portfolio was 96.0% at December 31, 2012 as compared to 95.5% at December 31, 2011. Occupancy for our Suburban portfolio was 79.5% at December 31, 2012 compared to 80.7% at December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2012, approximately 5.9% and 6.5% of the space leased at our consolidated Manhattan and Suburban properties, respectively, is expected to expire during 2013. We estimate that the current market rents on these expected 2013 lease expirations at our consolidated Manhattan and Suburban properties would be approximately 11.9% higher and 6.8% lower, respectively, than then existing in-place fully escalated rents. We estimate that the current market rents on all our consolidated Manhattan and Suburban properties were approximately 8.8% higher and 0.8% lower, respectively, than the existing in-place fully escalated rents on leases that are scheduled to expire in all future years.

The increase in rental revenues was also due to the acquisitions of 304 Park Avenue South in June 2012, 641 Sixth Avenue in September 2012 and 110 East 42nd Street in May 2011, which, in aggregate, contributed $11.7 million and $1.4 million of the total increase in rental and escalation and reimbursement revenues, respectively.

Investment Income and Other Income

The increase in investment and other income was primarily related to the additional income earned from the preferred equity investments transferred to us by SL Green in September 2012 ($9.5 million) and our share of real estate tax refunds ($1.7 million) from four of our properties. This increase was partially offset by a reduction in lease buyout income ($0.3 million) and additional income recognized in 2011 upon sale of a debt investment ($3.1 million).

Property Operating Expenses

The increase in property operating expenses was primarily due to higher real estate taxes ($6.3 million), ground rent ($2.5 million), payroll costs ($1.5 million), management fee and allocated expenses ($0.6 million), contract maintenance expenses ($0.7 million) and insurance costs ($0.2 million). This increase was partially offset by lower utility costs ($2.7 million) and repairs and maintenance ($0.4 million). Also contributing to the overall increase was the acquisition of 304 Park Avenue South in June 2012, 641 Sixth Avenue in September 2012 and 110 East 42nd in May 2011, which had, in aggregate, $2.7 million in operating expenses and $2.0 million in real estate taxes during the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in real estate taxes was primarily due to higher assessed values and higher tax rates.

Interest Expense, Net of Interest Income

The increase in interest expense, net of interest income, was primarily due to the issuances of $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.00% senior notes due 2018 in August 2011 and $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% senior notes due 2022 in November 2012, and our, SL Green's and the Operating Partnership's entry into a new $1.5 billion revolving credit facility in November 2011, which was later replaced with a $1.6 billion credit facility in November 2012, as well as the refinancing of 919 Third Avenue in June 2011.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was attributable to the depreciation on newly acquired properties including 304 Park Avenue South ($3.1 million) in June 2012, 635-641 Sixth Avenue ($2.6 million) in September 2012 and 110 East 42nd Street ($1.2 million) in May 2011 as well as an increase in capital expenditures at the properties in the ROP portfolio.

Equity in Net Income of Unconsolidated Joint Venture

The increase in equity in net income of unconsolidated joint venture was due to higher net income contribution during the period prior to the sale of One Court Square in July 2012.

Loan Loss Reserves, Net of Recoveries

Loan loss reserves, net of recoveries, was attributable to the partial recovery of reserves upon sale of debt investments in March 2012 and February 2011 which was reduced by a $0.7 million reserve recorded in 2011. No loan loss reserves were recorded in 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On January 25, 2007, we were acquired by SL Green. See Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis Liquidity and Capital Resources" in SL Green and the Operating Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 for a complete discussion of additional sources of liquidity available to us due to our indirect ownership by SL Green.

We currently expect that our principal sources of funds to meet our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements for working capital and funds for acquisition and redevelopment of properties, tenant improvements, leasing costs, repurchases or repayments of outstanding indebtedness (which may include exchangeable debt) and for preferred equity investments will include:


(1)	Cash flow from operations;


(2)	Cash on hand;


(3)	Borrowings under our 2012 credit facility;


(4)	Other forms of secured or unsecured financing;


(5)	Net proceeds from divestitures of properties and redemptions, participations and dispositions of preferred equity investments; and


(6)	Proceeds from debt offerings by us.

Cash flow from operations is primarily dependent upon the occupancy level of our portfolio, the net effective rental rates achieved on our leases, the collectability of rent, operating escalations and recoveries from our tenants and the level of operating and other costs. Additionally, we believe that our preferred equity investment program will continue to serve as a source of operating cash flow.

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

Cash Flows

The following summary discussion of our cash flows is based on our consolidated statements of cash flows in "Item 8. Financial Statements" and is not meant to be an all-inclusive discussion of the changes in our cash flows for the periods presented below.

Cash and cash equivalents were $39.7 million and $34.0 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, representing an increase of $5.7 million. The increase was a result of the following changes in cash flows (in thousands):



	Years ended December 31,
	2013			2012			Increase (Decrease)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	135,959		$	148,815		$	(12,856	)
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(257,585	)	$	(274,920	)	$	17,335
Net cash provided by financing activities	$	127,292		$	133,495		$	(6,203	)

Our principal source of operating cash flow is related to the leasing and operating of the properties in our portfolio. Our properties provide a relatively consistent stream of cash flow that provides us with resources to pay operating expenses, debt service and make distributions to SL Green. At December 31, 2013, our portfolio was 90.2% occupied. Our preferred investments also provide a steady stream of operating cash flow to us.

Cash is used in investing activities to fund acquisitions, redevelopment projects and recurring and nonrecurring capital expenditures. We selectively invest in new projects that enable us to take advantage of our development, leasing, financing and property management skills and invest in existing buildings that meet our investment criteria. During the year ended December 31, 2013, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, we used cash primarily for the following investing activities (in thousands):



Acquisitions of real estate	$	(109,715	)
Capital expenditures and capitalized interest	(32,345		)
Net proceeds from sale of real estate/joint venture interest	166,751
Distributions from unconsolidated joint ventures	19,774
Preferred equity and other investments	(22,921		)
Restricted cash—capital improvements	(4,209		)
Decrease in net cash used in investing activities	$	17,335

Funds spent on capital expenditures, which comprise building and tenant improvements, increased from $43.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to $75.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increased capital expenditures relate primarily to increased costs incurred in connection with the redevelopment of properties and the build-out of space for tenants resulting from new leasing activity.

We generally fund our investment activity through property-level financing, our 2012 credit facility, senior unsecured notes and sale of real estate. During the year ended December 31, 2013, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, we used cash for the following financing activities (in thousands):



Repayments under our debt obligations	$	657,264
Proceeds from debt obligations	(587,480		)
Contributions from common unitholder	75,821
Distributions to common unitholder and noncontrolling interests	(159,652		)
Deferred loan costs	7,844
Decrease in cash provided by financing activities	$	(6,203	)

Capitalization

All of our issued and outstanding Class A common units are owned by WAGP or the Operating Partnership.

Corporate Indebtedness

2012 Credit Facility

In November 2012, we entered into a $1.6 billion credit facility, or the 2012 credit facility, which refinanced, extended and upsized the previous 2011 revolving credit facility. The 2012 credit facility consists of a $1.2 billion revolving credit facility, or the revolving credit facility, and a $400.0 million term loan, or the term loan facility. The revolving credit facility matures in March 2017 and includes two six-month extension options, subject to certain conditions and the payment of an extension fee of 10 basis points for each such extension. We also have an option, subject to customary conditions, without the consent of existing lenders, to increase the capacity under the revolving credit facility to $1.5 billion at any time prior to the maturity date for the revolving credit facility, by obtaining additional commitments from our current lenders and other financial institutions. The term loan facility matures on March 30, 2018.

The 2012 credit facility bears interest at a spread over LIBOR ranging from (i) 100 basis points to 175 basis points for loans under the revolving credit facility and (ii) 115 basis points to 200 basis points for loans under the term loan facility, in each case based on the credit rating assigned to our senior unsecured long term indebtedness. At December 31, 2013, the applicable spread was 145 basis points for revolving credit facility and 165 basis points for the term loan facility. At December 31, 2013, the effective interest rate was 1.62% for the revolving credit facility and 2.00% for the term loan facility. We are required to pay quarterly in arrears a 15 to 35 basis point facility fee on the total commitments under the revolving credit facility based on the credit rating assigned to our senior unsecured long term indebtedness. As of December 31, 2013, the facility fee was 30 basis points. At December 31, 2013, we had approximately $74.6 million of outstanding letters of credit, $220.0 million drawn under the revolving credit facility and $400.0 million outstanding under the term loan facility, with total undrawn capacity of approximately $905.4 million under the 2012 credit facility.

We, SL Green and the Operating Partnership are all borrowers jointly and severally obligated under the 2012 credit facility. No other subsidiary of SL Green's is an obligor under the 2012 credit facility.

The 2012 credit facility includes certain restrictions and covenants (see Restrictive Covenants below).

2011 Revolving Credit Facility

The 2012 credit facility replaced our $1.5 billion revolving credit facility, or the 2011 revolving credit facility, which was terminated concurrently with the entering into the 2012 credit facility. The 2011 revolving credit facility bore interest at a spread over LIBOR ranging from 100 basis points to 185 basis points, based on the credit rating assigned to our senior unsecured long-term indebtedness, and required to pay quarterly in arrears a 17.5 to 45 basis point facility fee on the total commitments under the 2011 revolving credit facility. The 2011 revolving credit facility included certain restrictions and covenants and, as of the time of the termination of the 2011 revolving credit facility and as of November 2012, we were in compliance with all such restrictions and covenants.

Senior Unsecured Notes

The following table sets forth our senior unsecured notes and other related disclosures as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, by scheduled maturity date (amounts in thousands):



Issuance	December 31, 2013 Unpaid Principal Balance		December 31, 2013 Accreted Balance		December 31, 2012 Accreted Balance		Coupon Rate(1)		Effective Rate		Term (in Years)	Maturity

______________________________________________________________________


(1)	Interest on the senior unsecured notes is payable semi-annually with principal and unpaid interest due on the scheduled maturity dates.


(2)	On December 27, 2012, we repurchased $42.4 million of aggregate principal amount of these notes, consisting of $22.7 million of the 5.875% Notes and $19.7 million of the 6.0% Notes, for a total consideration of $46.4 million and realized a net loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $3.8 million.


(3)	We, SL Green and the Operating Partnership are co-obligors.

(4)

Exchangeable senior debentures which are currently callable at 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, 2015 and 2020 and upon the occurrence of certain change of control transactions. As a result of the Merger, the adjusted exchange rate for the debentures is 7.7461 shares of SL Green's common stock per $1,000 of principal amount of debentures and the adjusted reference dividend for the debentures is $1.3491. During the year ended December 31, 2012, we repurchased $650,000 of these bonds at par.

ROP also provides a guaranty of the Operating Partnership's obligations under its 3.00% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2017.

Restrictive Covenants

The terms of the 2012 credit facility and certain of our senior unsecured notes include certain restrictions and covenants which may limit, among other things, SL Green's ability to pay dividends, make certain types of investments, incur additional indebtedness, incur liens and enter into negative pledge agreements and dispose of assets, and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to the minimum amount of tangible net worth, a maximum ratio of total indebtedness to total asset value, a minimum ratio of EBITDA to fixed charges, a maximum ratio of secured indebtedness to total asset value and a maximum ratio of unsecured indebtedness to unencumbered asset value. The dividend restriction referred to above provides that SL Green will not during any time when a default is continuing, make distributions with respect to SL Green's common stock or other equity interests, except to enable SL Green to continue to qualify as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, we were in compliance with all such covenants.

Market Rate Risk

We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily from our variable rate debt. Our exposure to interest rate changes are managed through either the use of interest rate derivative instruments and/or through our variable rate preferred equity investments. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates along the entire interest rate curve for 2013 would increase our annual interest cost, net of interest income from variable rate preferred equity investments, by approximately $5.8 million.

We recognize most derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges are adjusted to fair value through income. If a derivative is considered a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged asset, liability, or firm commitment through earnings, or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings.

Approximately $1.6 billion of our long-term debt bears interest at fixed rates, and therefore the fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in the market interest rates. The interest rate on our variable rate debt as of December 31, 2013 was based on LIBOR plus a spread ranging from 145 basis points to 165 basis points.

Contractual Obligations

The combined aggregate principal maturities of mortgage note and other loans payable, our 2012 credit facility and senior unsecured notes (net of discount), including extension options, estimated interest expense, and our obligations under our capital lease and ground leases, as of December 31, 2013 are as follows (in thousands):



	2014		2015		2016		2017		2018		Thereafter		Total
Property mortgage and other loans payable	$	23	$	—	$	3,566	$	7,411	$	7,799	$	531,224	$	550,023

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have a number of off-balance sheet investments, including preferred equity investments. These investments all have varying ownership structures. Our off-balance sheet arrangements are discussed in Note 4, "Preferred Equity Investments and Other Investments," in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Capital Expenditures

We estimate that for the year ending December 31, 2014, we expect to incur capital expenditures consisting of approximately $38.5 million of recurring expenditures and $24.7 million of development expenditures, which are net of loan reserves, (including

tenant improvements and leasing commissions) on existing consolidated properties. We expect to fund these capital expenditures with operating cash flow and cash on hand. Future property acquisitions may require substantial capital investments for refurbishment and leasing costs. We expect that these financing requirements will be met in a similar fashion. We believe that we will have sufficient resources to satisfy our capital needs during the next 12-month period.

Thereafter, we expect our capital needs will be met through a combination of net cash provided by operations, borrowings, potential asset sales or additional debt issuances.

Related Party Transactions

Cleaning/ Security/ Messenger and Restoration Services

Through Alliance Building Services, or Alliance, First Quality Maintenance, L.P., or First Quality, provides cleaning, extermination and related services, Classic Security LLC provides security services, Bright Star Couriers LLC provides messenger services, and Onyx Restoration Works provides restoration services with respect to certain properties owned by us. Alliance is partially owned by Gary Green, a son of Stephen L. Green, the chairman of SL Green's board of directors. In addition, First Quality has the non-exclusive opportunity to provide cleaning and related services to individual tenants at our properties on a basis separately negotiated with any tenant seeking such additional services. An affiliate of ours has entered into an arrangement with Alliance whereby it will receive a profit participation above a certain threshold for services provided by Alliance to certain tenants at certain buildings above the base services specified in their lease agreements. Approximately $3.0 million, $3.4 million and $2.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, was earned by our affiliate from this profit participation. We recorded expenses of approximately $6.0 million, $5.3 million and $4.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, for these services (excluding services provided directly to tenants).

Allocated Expenses from SL Green

Property operating expenses include an allocation of salary and other operating costs from SL Green based on square footage of the related properties. Such amount was approximately $7.4 million, $6.7 million and $6.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Insurance

SL Green maintains "all-risk" property and rental value coverage (including coverage regarding the perils of flood, earthquake and terrorism) within two property insurance portfolios and liability insurance. This includes the ROP assets. As of December 31, 2013, the first property portfolio maintains a blanket limit of $950.0 million per occurrence, including terrorism, for the majority of the New York City properties in our portfolio. The second property portfolio maintains a limit of $700.0 million per occurrence, including terrorism, for some New York City properties and the majority of the Suburban properties. Both policies expire on December 31, 2014. Each policy includes $100.0 million of flood coverage with a lower sublimit for locations in high hazard flood zones. SL Green maintains liability policies which cover all our properties and provide limits of $201.0 million per occurrence and in the aggregate per location. The liability policies expire on October 31, 2014. Additional coverage may be purchased on a stand-alone basis for certain assets.

The Terrorism Risk Insurance Act, or TRIA, which was enacted in November 2002, was renewed on December 31, 2005 and again on December 31, 2007. Congress extended TRIA, now called TRIPRA (Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization and Extension Act of 2007) until December 31, 2014. The law extends the federal Terrorism Insurance Program that requires insurance companies to offer terrorism coverage and provides for compensation for insured losses resulting from acts of certified terrorism, subject to the current program trigger of $100.0 million. There is no assurance that TRIPRA will be extended. Our debt instruments, consisting of mortgage loans secured by our properties (which are generally non-recourse to us), mezzanine loans, ground leases, our 2012 credit facility, senior unsecured notes and other corporate obligations, contain customary covenants requiring us to maintain insurance. Although we believe that we currently maintain sufficient insurance coverage to satisfy these obligations, there is no assurance that in the future we will be able to procure coverage at a reasonable cost. In such instances, there can be no assurance that the lenders or ground lessors under these instruments will not take the position that a total or partial exclusion from "all-risk" insurance coverage for losses due to terrorist acts is a breach of these debt and ground lease instruments allowing the lenders or ground lessors to declare an event of default and accelerate repayment of debt or recapture of ground lease positions. In addition, if lenders prevail in asserting that we are required to maintain full coverage for these risks, it could result in substantially higher insurance premiums.

We obtained insurance coverage through an insurance program administered by SL Green. In connection with this program we incurred insurance expense of approximately $5.1 million, $4.6 million and $4.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Inflation

Substantially all of our office leases provide for separate real estate tax and operating expense escalations as well as operating expense recoveries based on increases in the Consumer Price Index or other measures such as porters' wage. In addition, many of the leases provide for fixed base rent increases. We believe that inflationary increases may be at least partially offset by the contractual rent increases and expense escalations described above.

Other factors and risks to our business, many of which are beyond our control, are described in other sections of this report and in our other filings with the SEC. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise.

The risks included here are not exhaustive. Other sections of this report may include additional factors that could adversely affect ROP's business and financial performance. In addition, sections of SL Green and the Operating Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 contain additional factors that could adversely affect our business and financial performance. Moreover, ROP operates in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor can it assess the impact of all such risk factors on ROP's business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Partners of Reckson Operating Partnership, L.P.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Reckson Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, capital and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 15(a)(2). These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company at December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2013

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

ROP is engaged in the acquisition, ownership, management and operation of commercial real estate properties, principally office properties and also owns land for future development, located in the New York City, Westchester County and Connecticut, which collectively is also known as the New York Metropolitan area.

In connection with the closing of our 2011 revolving credit facility and 2012 credit facility, in which we, along with SL Green and the Operating Partnership are borrowers, SL Green transferred five properties, with total assets aggregating to $683.8 million at November 1, 2011 and transferred three additional properties with total assets aggregating to $320.2 million at December 31, 2012, to ROP. Under the Business Combinations guidance, these were determined to be transfers of businesses between the indirect parent company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. As such, the assets and liabilities were transferred at their carrying value. These transfers are required to be recorded as of the beginning of the current reporting period as though the assets and liabilities had been transferred at that date. The consolidated financial statements and financial information presented for all prior years have been retrospectively adjusted to furnish comparative information.



Location	Ownership	Number of Buildings	Square Feet (unaudited)	Weighted Average Occupancy(1) (unaudited)
Manhattan	Consolidated properties	12	6,866,400	94.6	%
Suburban	Consolidated properties	17	2,785,500	79.1	%
		29	9,651,900	90.2	%

______________________________________________________________________


(1)	The weighted average occupancy represents the total leased square feet divided by total available rentable square feet.

At December 31, 2013, we also own a mixed-use residential and commercial building encompassing approximately 493,000 square feet (unaudited), a development property encompassing approximately 104,000 square feet (unaudited) and an inventory of four separate development parcels that aggregated approximately 81 acres (unaudited) of land. As of December 31, 2013, we also held preferred equity investments with a book value of $369.4 million.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our subsidiaries, which are wholly-owned or controlled by us. Entities which we do not control through our voting interest and entities which are variable interest entities, but where we are not the primary beneficiary, are accounted for under the equity method or as preferred equity investments. See Note 5, "Preferred Equity and Other Investments." ROP's investments in majority-owned and controlled real estate joint ventures are reflected in the financial statements on a consolidated basis with a reduction for the noncontrolling partners' interests. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

We consolidate a variable interest entity, or VIE, in which we are considered a primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the entity that has (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE.

A noncontrolling interest in a consolidated subsidiary is defined as the portion of the equity (net assets) in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent. Noncontrolling interests are required to be presented as a separate component of equity in the consolidated balance sheet and the presentation of net income was modified to require earnings and other comprehensive income to be attributed to controlling and noncontrolling interests.

We assess the accounting treatment for each joint venture and preferred equity investment. This assessment includes a review of each joint venture or limited liability company agreement to determine which party has what rights and whether those rights are protective or participating. For all VIE's, we review such agreements in order to determine which party has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance. In situations where we or our partner approves, among other things, the annual budget, receives a detailed monthly reporting package from us, meets on a quarterly basis to review the results of the joint venture, reviews and approves the joint venture's tax return before filing, and approves all leases that cover more than a nominal amount of space relative to the total rentable space at each property, we do not consolidate the joint venture as we consider these to be substantive participation rights that result in shared power of the activities that most significantly impact the performance of our joint venture. Our joint venture agreements typically contain certain protective rights such as the requirement of partner approval to sell, finance or refinance the property and the payment of capital expenditures and operating expenditures outside of the approved budget or operating plan.

Investment in Commercial Real Estate Properties

Real estate properties are presented at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Costs directly related to the development or redevelopment of properties are capitalized. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred; major replacements and betterments, which improve or extend the life of the asset, are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

A property to be disposed of is reported at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated fair value, less its cost to sell. Once an asset is held for sale, depreciation expense is no longer recorded and the historic results are reclassified as discontinued operations. See Note 4, "Property Dispositions."

Properties are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are as follows:



Category		Term
Building (fee ownership)		40 years
Building improvements		shorter of remaining life of the building or useful life
Building (leasehold interest)		lesser of 40 years or remaining term of the lease
Property under capital lease		remaining lease term
Furniture and fixtures		four to seven years
Tenant improvements		shorter of remaining term of the lease or useful life

Depreciation expense (including amortization of capital lease asset) amounted to approximately $131.9 million, $125.1 million and $118.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

is less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss will be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the calculated fair value of the property. We do not believe that the values of any of our consolidated properties were impaired at December 31, 2013.

We also evaluate our real estate properties for potential impairment when a real estate property has been classified as held for sale. Real estate assets held for sale are valued at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less costs to sell.

Results of operations of properties acquired are included in the consolidated statements of income from the date of acquisition.

We recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed (including contingencies) and any noncontrolling interests in an acquired entity at their fair values on the acquisition date. We expense acquisition-related transaction costs as incurred, which are included in transaction related costs on our consolidated statements of income.

We recognized increases of approximately $21.4 million, $20.2 million and $22.5 million in rental revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, for the amortization of aggregate below-market leases in excess of above-market leases and a reduction in lease origination costs, resulting from the allocation of the purchase price of the applicable properties. We recognized an increase (reduction) in interest expense for the amortization of above-market rate mortgages assumed of approximately $0.5 million, $0.7 million and $(1.2) million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

We account for our investment in the unconsolidated joint venture under the equity method of accounting in cases where we exercise significant influence, but do not control the entity and are not considered to be the primary beneficiary. We consolidate those joint ventures that we control or which are VIEs and where we are considered to be the primary beneficiary. In all the joint ventures, the rights of the joint venture partner are both protective as well as participating. Unless the joint venture is determined to be a VIE and we are the primary beneficiary in a VIE, these participating rights preclude us from consolidating these non-VIE entities. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and subsequently adjusted for equity in net income (loss) and cash contributions and distributions. Equity in net income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures is allocated based on our ownership or economic interest in the joint venture. When a capital event (as defined in each joint venture agreement) such as a refinancing occurs, if return thresholds are met, future equity income will be allocated at our increased economic interest. We recognize incentive income from unconsolidated real estate joint ventures as income to the extent it is earned and not subject to a clawback feature. Distributions we receive from unconsolidated real estate joint ventures in excess of our basis in the investment are recorded as offsets to our investment balance if we remain liable for future obligations of the joint venture or may otherwise be committed to provide future additional financial support. None of the joint venture debt is recourse to us. See Note 5, "Preferred Equity and Other Investments."

We assess our investment in our unconsolidated joint venture for recoverability, and if it is determined that a loss in value of the investment is other than temporary, we write down the investment to its fair value. We evaluate our equity investment for impairment based on the joint venture's projected discounted cash flows. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we did not record any impairment charge on any of our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. During the year ended December 31, 2011, we recorded a $5.8 million impairment charge on one of our equity investments, which we sold in July 2012. These charges are included in depreciable real estate reserves in the consolidated statements of income.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash primarily consists of security deposits held on behalf of our tenants, interest reserves, as well as capital improvement and real estate tax escrows required under certain loan agreements.

Deferred Lease Costs

Deferred lease costs consist of fees and direct costs incurred to initiate and renew operating leases and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related lease term.

Table of Contents

Reckson Operation Partnership, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, legal, title and other third party costs associated with obtaining commitments for financing which result in a closing of such financing. These costs are amortized over the terms of the respective agreements. Unamortized deferred financing costs are expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financing transactions, which do not close, are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close.

Revenue Recognition

Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rental revenue recognition commences when the tenant takes possession or controls the physical use of the leased space. In order for the tenant to take possession, the leased space must be substantially ready for its intended use. To determine whether the leased space is substantially ready for its intended use, management evaluates whether we are or the tenant is the owner of tenant improvements for accounting purposes. When management concludes that we are the owner of tenant improvements, rental revenue recognition begins when the tenant takes possession of the finished space, which is when such tenant improvements are substantially complete. In certain instances, when management concludes that we are not the owner (the tenant is the owner) of tenant improvements, rental revenue recognition begins when the tenant takes possession of or controls the space. When management concludes that we are the owner of tenant improvements for accounting purposes, we record the amounts funded to construct the tenant improvements as a capital asset. For these tenant improvements, we record amounts reimbursed by tenants as a reduction of the capital asset. When management concludes that the tenant is the owner of tenant improvements for accounting purposes, we record our contribution towards those improvements as a lease incentive, which is included in deferred leasing costs on our consolidated balance sheets and amortized as a reduction to rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The excess of rents recognized over amounts contractually due pursuant to the underlying leases are included in deferred rents receivable on the consolidated balance sheets. We establish, on a current basis, an allowance for future potential tenant credit losses, which may occur against this account. The balance reflected on the consolidated balance sheets is net of such allowance.

In addition to base rent, our tenants also generally will pay their pro rata share of increases in real estate taxes and operating expenses for the building over a base year. In some leases, in lieu of paying additional rent based upon increases in building operating expenses, the tenant will pay additional rent based upon increases in the wage rate paid to porters over the porters' wage rate in effect during a base year or increases in the consumer price index over the index value in effect during a base year. In addition, many of our leases contain fixed percentage increases over the base rent to cover escalations. Electricity is most often supplied by the landlord either on a sub-metered basis, or rent inclusion basis (i.e., a fixed fee is included in the rent for electricity, which amount may increase based upon increases in electricity rates or increases in electrical usage by the tenant). Base building services other than electricity (such as heat, air conditioning and freight elevator service during business hours, and base building cleaning) are typically provided at no additional cost, with the tenant paying additional rent only for services which exceed base building services or for services which are provided outside normal business hours. These escalations are based on actual expenses incurred in the prior calendar year. If the expenses in the current year are different from those in the prior year, then during the current year, the escalations will be adjusted to reflect the actual expenses for the current year.

We record a gain on sale of real estate when title is conveyed to the buyer, subject to the buyer's financial commitment being sufficient to provide economic substance to the sale and we have no substantial economic involvement with the buyer.

Income recognition is generally suspended for preferred equity investments at the earlier of the date at which payments become 90 days past due or when, in the opinion of management, a full recovery of interest income becomes doubtful. Interest income recognition is resumed when the loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated to be resumed. Interest is recorded as income on impaired loans only to the extent cash is received. Several of the preferred equity investments provide for accrual of interest at specified rates, which differ from current payment terms. Interest is recognized on such loans at the accrual rate subject to management's determination that accrued interest are ultimately collectible, based on the underlying collateral and operations of the borrower. If management cannot make this determination, interest income above the current pay rate is recognized only upon actual receipt.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

If we purchase a preferred equity investment at a discount, intend to hold it until maturity and expect to recover the full value of the investment, we accrete the discount into income as an adjustment to yield over the term of the investment. If we purchase a preferred equity investment at a discount with the intention of foreclosing on the collateral, we do not accrete the discount.

Asset management fees are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the asset management agreement.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Reserve for Possible Credit Losses

Rent Expense

Rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. The excess of the rent expense recognized over the amounts contractually due pursuant to the underlying lease is included in the deferred land leases payable on the consolidated balance sheets.

Income Taxes

No provision has been made for income taxes in the consolidated financial statements since such taxes, if any, are the responsibility of the individual partners.

Earnings per Unit

Earnings per unit was not computed in 2013, 2012 and 2011 as there were no outstanding common units held by third parties at December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Exchangeable Debt Instruments

The initial proceeds from exchangeable debt that may be settled in cash, including partial cash settlements, must be bifurcated between a liability component and an equity component associated with the embedded conversion option. The objective of the accounting guidance is to require the liability and equity components of exchangeable debt to be separately accounted for in a manner such that the interest expense on the exchangeable debt is not recorded at the stated rate of interest but rather at an effective rate that reflects the issuer's conventional debt borrowing rate at the date of issuance. We calculate the liability component of exchangeable debt based on the present value of the contractual cash flows discounted at our comparable market conventional debt borrowing rate at the date of issuance. The difference between the principal amount and the fair value of the liability component is reported as a discount on the exchangeable debt that is accreted as additional interest expense from the issuance date through the contractual maturity date using the effective interest method. A portion of this additional interest expense may be capitalized

Table of Contents

Reckson Operation Partnership, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

to the development and redevelopment balances qualifying for interest capitalization each period. The liability component of the exchangeable debt is reported net of discounts on our consolidated balance sheets. We calculate the equity component of exchangeable debt based on the difference between the initial proceeds received from the issuance of the exchangeable debt and the fair value of the liability component at the issuance date. The equity component is included in additional paid-in-capital, net of issuance costs, on our consolidated balance sheets. We allocate issuance costs for exchangeable debt between the liability and the equity components based on their relative values.

Derivative Instruments

In the normal course of business, we use a variety of commonly used derivative instruments, such as interest rate swaps, caps, collar and floors, to manage, or hedge, interest rate risk. We require that hedging derivative instruments are effective in reducing the interest rate risk exposure that they are designated to hedge. This effectiveness is essential for qualifying for hedge accounting. Some derivative instruments are associated with an anticipated transaction. In those cases, hedge effectiveness criteria also require that it be probable that the underlying transaction occurs. Instruments that meet these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the inception of the derivative contract.

To determine the fair values of derivative instruments, we use a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each balance sheet date. For the majority of financial instruments including most derivatives, long-term investments and long-term debt, standard market conventions and techniques such as discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models, replacement cost, and termination cost are used to determine fair value. All methods of assessing fair value result in a general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized.

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to the effect of interest rate changes and limit these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures including the use of derivatives. To address exposure to interest rates, derivatives are used primarily to fix the rate on debt based on floating-rate indices and manage the cost of borrowing obligations.

We use a variety of commonly used derivative products that are considered plain vanilla derivatives. These derivatives typically include interest rate swaps, caps, collars and floors. We expressly prohibit the use of unconventional derivative instruments and using derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Further, we have a policy of only entering into contracts with major financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and other factors.

We may employ swaps, forwards or purchased options to hedge qualifying forecasted transactions. Gains and losses related to these transactions are deferred and recognized in net income as interest expense in the same period or periods that the underlying transaction occurs, expires or is otherwise terminated.

Hedges that are reported at fair value and presented on the balance sheet could be characterized as cash flow hedges or fair value hedges. Interest rate caps and collars are examples of cash flow hedges. Cash flow hedges address the risk associated with future cash flows of interest payments. For all hedges held by us and which were deemed to be fully effective in meeting the hedging objectives established by our corporate policy governing interest rate risk management, no net gains or losses were reported in earnings. The changes in fair value of hedge instruments are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income. For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, the gain or loss resulting from the change in the estimated fair value of the derivative instruments is recognized in current earnings during the period of change.

Fair Value Measurements

See Note 9, "Fair Value Measurements."

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash investments, preferred equity investments and accounts receivable. We place our cash investments in excess of insured amounts with high quality financial institutions. The collateral securing our preferred equity investments is located in the New York Metropolitan area. See Note 5, "Preferred Equity and Other Investments." We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our tenants and require most tenants to provide security deposits or letters of credit. Though these security deposits and letters of credit 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 economic costs associated with lost rent and the costs associated with re-tenanting the space. Although the properties in our real estate portfolio are primarily located in Manhattan, we also have Suburban properties located in Westchester County and Connecticut. The tenants located in our buildings operate in various industries. Other than two tenants who account for approximately 5.1% and 3.4% of our share of annualized cash rent, respectively, no other tenant in the portfolio accounted for more than 3.3% of our annualized cash rent, including our share of joint venture annualized cash rent at December 31, 2013. Approximately 19.5%, 10.0%, 9.9%, 9.6% and 9.0% of our annualized cash rent was attributable to 1185 Avenue of the Americas, 919 Third Avenue, 750 Third Avenue, 810 Seventh Avenue and 1350 Avenue of the Americas, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Reclassification

Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to our current year presentation primarily in order to eliminate discontinued operations from income from continuing operations, to reclassify deferred origination fees from deferred income to preferred equity investments and to reclassify contingent liabilities relating to operating escalation reimbursements from tenant and other receivables, net of allowance to accrued interest and other liabilities.

Accounting Standards Updates

In May 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance on fair value measurement which amends U.S. GAAP to conform to IFRS measurement and disclosure requirements. The amendments change the wording used to describe the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value, changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances disclosure requirements. This guidance was effective as of the first quarter of 2012, and its adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued guidance that concluded when a parent ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary that is in-substance real estate as a result of default on the subsidiary's nonrecourse debt, the reporting entity must apply the accounting guidance for sales of real estate to determine whether it should derecognize the in substance real estate. The reporting entity is precluded from derecognizing the real estate until legal ownership has been transferred to the lender to satisfy the debt. The guidance was effective for calendar year-end public and nonpublic companies in 2013 and is to be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption of the guidance is permitted. Adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance on the presentation and disclosure of reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income, or AOCI. The standard requires an entity to present information about significant items reclassified out of AOCI by component either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or as a separate disclosure in the notes to financial statements. The guidance was effective for calendar year-end public companies beginning in the first quarter of 2013 and its adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2013, we, along with our joint venture partner, formed a joint venture that holds a preferred equity interest in an entity that owns a retail property located in Manhattan. The underlying preferred equity investment bore interest at a rate of 8.75% per annum. We held 40.0% interest or $20.0 million initial investment in the joint venture. In December 2013, the preferred equity investment was redeemed and its net proceeds were distributed to us and our joint venture partner.

Prior to July 2012, we also held a 30.0% interest in a joint venture that owned a property located at One Court Square, Long Island City, New York. In November 2011, we recorded a $5.8 million impairment charge in connection with the expected sale of this investment. In July 2012, the property was sold for $481.1 million, which included the assumption of $315.0 million of existing debt by the purchaser. We recognized a gain of $1.0 million on sale of this property.

2012 Credit Facility

In November 2012, we entered into a $1.6 billion credit facility, or the 2012 credit facility, which refinanced, extended and upsized the previous 2011 revolving credit facility. The 2012 credit facility consists of a $1.2 billion revolving credit facility, or the revolving credit facility, and a $400.0 million term loan, or the term loan facility. The revolving credit facility matures in March 2017 and includes two six-month extension options, subject to certain conditions and the payment of an extension fee of 10 basis points for each such extension. We also have an option, subject to customary conditions, without the consent of existing lenders, to increase the capacity under the revolving credit facility to $1.5 billion at any time prior to the maturity date for the revolving credit facility, by obtaining additional commitments from our existing lenders and other financial institutions. The term loan facility matures on March 30, 2018.

The 2012 credit facility includes certain restrictions and covenants (see Restrictive Covenants below).

8. Partners' Capital

Since consummation of the Merger on January 25, 2007, the Operating Partnership has owned all the economic interests in ROP either by direct ownership or by indirect ownership through our general partner, which is its wholly-owned subsidiary.

Intercompany transactions between SL Green and ROP are generally recorded as contributions and distributions.

9. Fair Value Measurements

We are required to disclose the fair value information about our financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. FASB guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

measurement date. We measure and disclose the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on a hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions. This hierarchy consist of three broad levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date; Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that are used when little or no market data is available. We follow this hierarchy for our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis. In instances in which the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of the particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

We measure our derivatives instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of derivative instruments is based on current market data received from financial sources that trade such instruments and are based on prevailing market data and derived from third party proprietary models based on well-recognized financial principles and reasonable estimates about relevant future market conditions, which are classified as Level 2 inputs.

The financial assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value on our consolidated balance sheet include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, preferred equity investments, and mortgages and other loans payable and other secured and unsecured debt. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses reported in our consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value due to the short term nature of these instruments. The fair value of preferred equity investments, which is classified as Level 3, is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans with the same maturities would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings. The fair value of borrowings, which is classified as Level 3, is estimated by discounting the contractual cash flows of each debt to their present value using adjusted market interest rates, which is provided by a third-party specialist.

The following table provides the carrying value and fair value of these financial instruments as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively (in thousands):



	December 31, 2013				December 31, 2012
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Preferred equity investments	$	369,364	(1)		$	338,579	(1)

	$	2,200,815	$	2,322,586	$	2,050,713	$	2,211,262

____________________________________


(1)	Preferred equity investments had an estimated fair value of approximately $400.0 million as of December 31, 2013. For the year ended December 31, 2012, preferred equity investments had an estimated fair value ranging between $300.0 million and $400.0 million .

Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to us as of December 31, 2013. Although we are not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the reasonable fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since that date and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

10. Financial Instruments: Derivatives and Hedging

In the normal course of business, we use a variety of commonly used derivative instruments, such as interest rate swaps, caps, collar and floors, to manage, or hedge interest rate risk. We hedge our exposure to variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions in addition to anticipated future interest payments on existing debt. We recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges are adjusted to fair value through earnings. If a derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged asset, liability, or firm commitment through earnings, or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. Reported net income and capital may increase or decrease prospectively, depending on future levels of interest rates and other

variables affecting the fair values of derivative instruments and hedged items, but will have no effect on cash flows. Currently, all of our designated derivative instruments are effective hedging instruments.

As of December 31, 2013, the Company has designated an interest swap agreement on the $30.0 million portion of the 2012 credit facility. The following table summarizes the notional and fair value of our derivative financial instrument at December 31, 2013 based on Level 2 inputs. The notional value is an indication of the extent of our involvement in these instruments at that time, but does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks (amounts in thousands):

Gains and losses on terminated hedges are included in the accumulated other comprehensive loss, and are recognized into earnings over the remaining term of the related senior unsecured notes. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the deferred net losses from these terminated hedges, which are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss relating to net unrealized loss on derivative instrument, was approximately $2.7 million and $3.1 million, respectively.

Over time, the realized and unrealized gains and losses held in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into earnings as an adjustment to interest expense in the same periods in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings. We estimate that approximately $1.0 million of the current balance held in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into interest expense within the next 12 months.

The following table presents the effect of our derivative financial instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively (in thousands):

11. Rental Income

We are the lessor and the sublessor to tenants under operating leases with expiration dates ranging from January 1, 2014 to 2030. The minimum rental amounts due under the leases are generally either subject to scheduled fixed increases or adjustments. The leases generally also require that the tenants reimburse us for increases in certain operating costs and real estate taxes above their base year costs. Approximate future minimum rents to be received over the next five years and thereafter for non-cancelable operating leases in effect at December 31, 2013 for the consolidated properties, including consolidated joint venture properties, are as follows (in thousands):

12. Related Party Transactions

Cleaning/ Security/ Messenger and Restoration Services

Through Alliance Building Services, or Alliance, First Quality Maintenance, L.P., or First Quality, provides cleaning, extermination and related services, Classic Security LLC provides security services, Bright Star Couriers LLC provides messenger services, and Onyx Restoration Works provides restoration services with respect to certain properties owned by us. Alliance is partially owned by Gary Green, a son of Stephen L. Green, the chairman of SL Green's board of directors. In addition, First Quality has the non-exclusive opportunity to provide cleaning and related services to individual tenants at our properties on a basis separately negotiated with any tenant seeking such additional services. An affiliate of ours has entered into an arrangement with Alliance whereby it will receive a profit participation above a certain threshold for services provided by Alliance to certain tenants at certain buildings above the base services specified in their lease agreements. Approximately $3.0 million, $3.4 million and $2.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, was earned by our affiliate from profit participation. We recorded expenses of approximately $6.0 million, $5.3 million and $4.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, for these services (excluding services provided directly to tenants).

13. Benefit Plans

The building employees are covered by multi-employer defined benefit pension plans and post-retirement health and welfare plans. We participate in the Building Service 32BJ, or Union, Pension Plan and Health Plan. The Pension Plan is a multi-employer, non-contributory defined benefit pension plan that was established under the terms of collective bargaining agreements between the Service Employees International Union, Local 32BJ, the Realty Advisory Board on Labor Relations, Inc. and certain other employees. This Pension Plan is administered by a joint board of trustees consisting of union trustees and employer trustees and operates under employer identification number 13-1879376. The Pension Plan year runs from July 1 to June 30. Employers contribute to the Pension Plan at a fixed rate on behalf of each covered employee. Separate actuarial information regarding such pension plans is not made available to the contributing employers by the union administrators or trustees, since the plans do not maintain separate records for each reporting unit. However, on September 28, 2011, September 28, 2012 and September 28, 2013, the actuary certified that for the plan years beginning July 1, 2011, July 1, 2012 and July 1, 2013, respectively, the Pension Plan was in critical status under the Pension Protection Act of 2006. The Pension Plan trustees adopted a rehabilitation plan consistent with this requirement. No surcharges have been paid to the Pension Plan as of December 31, 2013. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Pension Plan received contributions from employers totaling $221.9 million, $212.7 million and $201.3 million, respectively.

The Health Plan was established under the terms of collective bargaining agreements between the Union, the Realty Advisory Board on Labor Relations, Inc. and certain other employers. The Health Plan provides health and other benefits to eligible participants employed in the building service industry who are covered under collective bargaining agreements, or other written agreements, with the Union. The Health Plan is administered by a Board of Trustees with equal representation by the employers and the Union and operates under employer identification number 13-2928869. The Health Plan receives contributions in accordance with collective bargaining agreements or participation agreements. Generally, these agreements provide that the employers contribute to the Health Plan at a fixed rate on behalf of each covered employee. Pursuant to the contribution diversion provision in the collective bargaining agreements, the collective bargaining parties agreed, beginning January 1, 2009, to divert to the Pension Plan $1.95 million of employer contributions per quarter that would have been due to the Health Plan. Effective October 1, 2010, the diversion of contributions was discontinued. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Health Plan received contributions from employers totaling $923.5 million, $893.3 million and $843.2 million, respectively.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

We are not presently involved in any material litigation nor, to our knowledge, any material litigation threatened against us or our properties, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes the costs, if any, incurred by us related to this litigation will not materially affect our financial position, operating results or liquidity.

Environmental Matters

Our management believes that the properties are in compliance in all material respects with applicable Federal, state and local ordinances and regulations regarding environmental issues. Management is not aware of any environmental liability that it believes would have a materially adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Management is unaware of any instances in which it would incur significant environmental cost if any of the properties were sold.

Ground and Capital Leases Arrangements

The property located at 1185 Avenue of the Americas operates under a ground lease (approximately $6.9 million annually) with a term expiration of 2020 and with an option to renew for an additional 23 years.

The property located at 461 Fifth Avenue operates under a ground lease (approximately $2.1 million annually) with a term expiration date of 2027 and with two options to renew for an additional 21 years each, followed by a third option for 15 years. We also have an option to purchase the ground lease for a fixed price on a specific date.

The property located at 673 First Avenue, which was transferred to ROP at December 31, 2012, has been capitalized for financial statement purposes. Land was estimated to be approximately 70% of the fair market value of the property. The portion of the lease attributed to land was classified as an operating lease and the remainder as a capital lease. The initial lease term was 49 years with an option for an additional 25 years. In November 2012, the lease was extended to August 2087, an additional 50 years past its scheduled 2037 expiration date, with an effective date of September 2012. We continue to lease the property located at 673 First Avenue, which has been classified as a capital lease with a cost basis of $22.9 million and cumulative amortization of $6.5 million and $6.3 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The following is a schedule of future minimum lease payments under capital lease and non-cancellable operating leases with initial terms in excess of one year as of December 31, 2013 (in thousands):

15. Segment Information

We are engaged in acquiring, owning, managing and leasing commercial properties in Manhattan, Westchester County and Connecticut and have two reportable segments, real estate and preferred equity investments. We evaluate real estate performance and allocate resources based on earnings contribution to income from continuing operations.

Our real estate portfolio is primarily located in the geographical markets of Manhattan, Westchester County and Connecticut. The primary sources of revenue are generated from tenant rents and escalations and reimbursement revenue. Real estate property operating expenses consist primarily of security, maintenance, utility costs, real estate taxes and ground rent expense (at certain applicable properties). See Note 5, "Preferred Equity and Other Investments," for additional details on our preferred equity investments.

Selected results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 and selected asset information as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, regarding our operating segments are as follows (in thousands):



	Real Estate Segment		Preferred Equity Segment		Total Company
Total revenues:
Years ended:
December 31, 2013	$	523,952	$	43,226	$	567,178

As of:
December 31, 2013	$	5,216,087	$	370,532	$	5,586,619
December 31, 2012	5,059,998		338,693		5,398,691

Income from continuing operations represents total revenues less total expenses for the real estate segment and total investment income and equity in net income from unconsolidated joint venture less allocated interest expense and provision for loan losses for the preferred equity segment. Interest costs for the preferred equity segment are imputed assuming 100% leverage at our 2012 credit facility borrowing cost. We also allocate loan loss reserves, net of recoveries to the preferred equity segment. We do not allocate marketing, general and administrative expenses and transaction related costs to the preferred equity segment, since we base performance on the individual segments prior to allocating marketing, general and administrative expenses. All other expenses, except interest, relate entirely to the real estate assets. There were no transactions between the above two segments.

17. Subsequent Events

On March 21, 2014, we, together with SL Green and the Operating Partnership, entered into an amendment to the 2012 credit facility, which, among other things, upsized the term loan portion of the 2012 credit facility by $383.0 million to $783.0 million, decreased the interest-rate margin applicable to the term loan facility and extended the maturity of the term loan facility to June 30, 2019. The new term loan facility bears interest at a spread over either base rate or LIBOR ranging from 95 basis points to 190 basis points based on the credit rating assigned to our senior unsecured long term indebtedness. At March 21, 2014, the applicable spread for loans under the term loan facility was 140 basis points.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

None.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of our general partner, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of "disclosure controls and procedures" in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within ROP to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in our periodic reports.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the President and Treasurer of our general partner, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, the President and Treasurer of our general partner concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to give reasonable assurances to the timely collection, evaluation and disclosure of information relating to ROP that would potentially be subject to disclosure under the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 (f) and 15d-15 (f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the President and Treasurer of our general partner, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 Framework) (COSO). Based on that evaluation, we concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2013.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of ROP's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by ROP's registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permits ROP to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

None.

PART III

ITEMS 10, 11, 12 AND 13.

As discussed in this report, SL Green acquired us on January 25, 2007. WAGP is the sole general partner of ROP and WAGP is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership. The directors and officers of WAGP also serve as officers of SL Green. As a result, you should read SL Green's Definitive Proxy Statement for its 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be filed pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act, on or prior to April 30, 2014, for the information required by Items 10, 11, 12 and 13 with respect to SL Green and which is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES

Ernst & Young LLP has served as ROP's independent registered public accounting firm since ROP's formation in September 1994 and is considered by management of ROP to be well qualified. ROP has been advised by that firm that neither it nor any member thereof has any financial interest, direct or indirect, in ROP or any of its subsidiaries in any capacity.

Ernst & Young LLP's fees for providing services to ROP in 2013 and 2012 were as follows:

Audit Fees. The aggregate fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP for professional services rendered for the audit of ROP's annual financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and for the reviews of the financial statements included in ROP's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were approximately $230,000 and $217,000 respectively.

Audit Related Fees. The audit related fees paid to Ernst & Young LLP for professional services rendered for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of ROP's financial statements, other than the services described under "Audit Fees," including due diligence and accounting assistance relating to transactions, joint ventures and other matters, were $118,000 and $164,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Tax Fees. There were no tax fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP for professional services rendered for tax compliance (including REIT tax compliance), tax advice and tax planning for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

All Other Fees. There were no other fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

WAGP is not required to have an audit committee and WAGP in fact does not have an audit committee. Management has the primary responsibility for the preparation, presentation and integrity of our financial statements, accounting and financial reporting principles, internal controls and procedures designed to ensure compliance with accounting standards, applicable laws and regulations.

Management has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, who is responsible for auditing our financial statements and for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, their judgments as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of our accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed under Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T. Management received from Ernst & Young LLP the written disclosures and the letter required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding communications concerning independence, discussed with Ernst & Young LLP their independence from both management and the Company and considered the compatibility of Ernst & Young LLP's provision of non-audit services to the Company with their independence.

Management recommended to the board of directors of our sole general partner (and such board of directors has approved) that the audited financial statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 for filing with the SEC.

•	have been qualified by disclosures that were made to the other party in connection with the negotiation of the applicable agreement, which disclosures are not necessarily reflected in the agreement;
