Vornado Realty Trust filed an update announcing its 2025 Sustainability Report, highlighting long-running environmental and ESG initiatives across its New York, Chicago, and San Francisco portfolios. The report focuses on energy efficiency, greenhouse gas reductions, certifications, waste diversion, water use, and tenant engagement.

Vornado reports a 42% reduction in landlord-controlled energy consumption in its in-service office portfolio versus a 2009 baseline, progressing toward a 50% cut by 2030. It has also reduced Scope 1 and Scope 2 market-based emissions by 58% from 2019, supported by renewable energy procurement and operational optimization.

The portfolio maintains 100% LEED certification across in-service managed office buildings and achieved 100% WELL Health-Safety certification. In 2025, more than 12.7 million square feet were ENERGY STAR certified, including ten properties with ENERGY STAR NextGen status, signaling strong ongoing performance.

Vornado reports a 56% waste diversion rate, including 2,563 metric tons of organic waste diverted from landfill, and targets 75% diversion by 2030. The company also emphasizes tenant education across more than 15 million square feet and describes district-level initiatives such as THE PENN DISTRICT’s transit-oriented redevelopment and new amenities like The Meadow at 1290 Avenue of the Americas.

Scope 1 financial
"VORNADO’S Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions are generated entirely from the operation of our buildings."
Scope 1 are the greenhouse gas emissions a company produces directly from sources it owns or controls, like fuel burned in company vehicles, boilers, or on-site factories. Think of it as the smoke coming out of a business’s own chimney versus electricity it buys from the grid. Investors watch Scope 1 because these direct emissions can create regulatory costs, operational changes, and reputational risks that affect profitability and long-term value.
Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) financial
"Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) and carbon offsets will be used to address the remaining emissions."
A renewable energy certificate (REC) is a tradable proof that one unit of electricity (one megawatt-hour, MWh) was generated from a renewable source like wind or solar; the certificate can be sold separately from the physical electricity. Investors care because RECs create an independent revenue stream and let companies claim green energy use without changing how power flows to a site, so they affect earnings, regulatory compliance costs, and perceived environmental credentials much like a saleable receipt or “green tag.”
Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) financial
"Vornado’s emissions reduction targets have been approved by the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as aligned with a 1.5°C climate scenario."
A program that assesses and approves companies’ greenhouse-gas reduction plans to ensure they align with climate science goals, like limiting global warming to well below 2°C or 1.5°C. For investors, SBTi approval is like a verified roadmap: it shows a firm has measurable, time-bound steps to cut emissions, which helps judge long-term regulatory, operational and reputational risk and compare climate commitments across companies.
LEED certification financial
"Vornado became the first major real estate company in the U.S. to achieve LEED certification across its entire in-service managed portfolio in 2024."
LEED certification is a widely recognized rating that shows how sustainably a building is designed, constructed and operated, similar to a fuel-efficiency label for cars. Investors care because higher LEED levels often mean lower energy and water bills, better tenant demand, potential tax or regulatory benefits, and reduced long-term environmental and regulatory risk—factors that can improve a property’s operating cash flow and resale value.
WELL Health-Safety Rating financial
"Vornado Realty Trust's achievement of the WELL Health-Safety Rating across its in-service managed portfolio demonstrates a significant commitment to tenant well-being."
A well health-safety rating is an independent assessment that measures how effectively a building or facility reduces health risks through cleaning, ventilation, air quality, and operational policies. For investors, it signals lower risk of outbreaks, higher tenant confidence, and potential for steadier occupancy and insurance costs — like a restaurant earning high food-safety marks that attract more customers and reduce liability.
Local Law 97 financial
"we are implementing operational optimization programs across our portfolio and deploying targeted capital upgrades… including New York City’s Local Law 97."

Sustainability Report 2025  1514  Sustainability Report 2025 Reduce We prioritize energy efficiency through capital building upgrades, retrofits to higher-efficiency equipment and systems, and operational improvements that permanently reduce energy and peak demand. High-performance design guidelines are applied to tenant buildouts, and we actively engage tenants to identify opportunities to reduce their submetered electricity consumption. Since 2009, these initiatives have resulted in a 42% reduction in energy use, advancing progress toward our target of a 50% reduction by 2030. Renewable We incorporate renewable energy solutions into development projects where feasible. As existing equipment reaches the end of its useful life, fossil-fuel-based cooling systems are replaced with ultra-high-efficiency electric chillers. For remaining fuel-oil boilers, we will begin converting burners to accommodate a 99% biofuel blend, which has a 74% lower emissions coefficient than #2 fuel oil. The phased elimination of fossil fuels is expected to deliver an approximate 10% reduction in emissions. Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) and carbon offsets will be used to address the remaining emissions. Recover As usage is reduced, we identify opportunities to recover waste energy. This is accomplished by recapturing heat that would otherwise be discarded and reintroducing it to make hot water. Vornado is currently implementing a waste heat recovery project at PENN 1 with support from the NYSERDA Empire Building Challenge. There are two more sites that have been targeted as candidates for heat recovery by 2030. VISION 2030 is Vornado’s commitment to reach carbon neutrality by 2030. We rely on meaningful stakeholder collaboration with our employees and our tenants to optimize operations and eliminate excessive usage. The following is the path toward Vision 2030 and how we anticipate reductions across our portfolio to meet our goal.

Sustainability Report 2025  1716  Sustainability Report 2025 GRI 2-24, 3-3 Goals & Progress METRICS & TARGETS Meaningful metrics and targets enable us to evaluate our climate-related risks and opportunities, as outlined in our Risk Management assessment and discussed further on pages 92–93 of this report. Certain metrics are subject to third-party assurance; additional details are provided in the Independent Accountant’s Reports on pages 116–117 and 126–127. We continue to implement a sustained model of operational optimization and utility efficiency across our buildings. We expect ongoing progress in energy management through reduced reliance on fossil fuels, the implementation of energy efficiency projects, increased integration of renewable energy, and active tenant engagement initiatives. Tenant participation in our organics diversion program continues to expand, supported by a range of recycling education efforts delivered through both in-person and virtual formats. We also anticipate continued reductions in water use through plumbing fixture retrofits, HVAC efficiency improvements, and water reuse initiatives while adhering to best-practice maintenance standards and green cleaning programs.

Scope 3 emissions currently include other utility consumption within our tenants’ control, such as submetered energy use, as well as additional operational impacts, including waste. Energy costs are often among a property’s largest controllable expenses. In 2019, Vornado committed to achieving carbon neutrality across its buildings by 2030. This initiative, known as Vision 2030, integrates multiple strategies to reduce and offset all Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. We have conducted a comprehensive inventory of our Scope 3 emissions to understand materiality to our emissions profile. *Any information relating to forward-looking statements, targets, goals, progress against goals, and linked information was not subject to Deloitte & Touche LLP’s review or examination and, accordingly, Deloitte & Touche LLP does not express a conclusion or any form of assurance on such information. ** Vornado has chosen to report our emissions based on operational control from the World Resource Institute’s Greenhouse Gas Protocol: A Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard: Revised Edition.

Environmental MOYNIHAN TRAIN HALL Operational Control Method GHG emissions by scope (MTCO2e) Emissions data is presented on an absolute basis. Location-based reflects emissions for our properties based on the grid average emission factor, while market-based reflects emissions that we are responsible for due to our purchasing decisions. Our Scope 1 emissions include on-site combustion from oil and natural gas; Scope 2 emissions include our district steam consumption and landlord-controlled electricity consumption; Scope 3 emissions include electricity consumed by our submeter tenants and other utility consumption within the direct control of our tenants. Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions inventory** Alexander’s Inc. GHG emissions inventory (breakout, included in inventory above) Energy efficiency is the primary focus of Vision 2030, with a target to reduce energy consumption by 50% below a 2009 baseline by 2030. Additional details on this initiative are provided in the Vision 2030 section of this report. As of the end of 2025, we achieved a 42% reduction in energy consumption. As business activity continues to return to our buildings, and as tenants and building operators remain focused on efficient operations, we are seeing steady progress toward our energy efficiency goal. We continue to closely monitor energy consumption and regularly evaluate our targets and performance.* Beginning in 2021, our location-based Scope 2 emissions diverged significantly from our market-based Scope 2 emissions due to our investment in renewable energy certificates. We will continue to disclose Scope 2 emissions using both methodologies. Because the market-based approach more accurately reflects progress toward our Vision 2030 carbon-neutrality commitment, it is the basis for reporting emissions-related goals and targets. If Category 5: Waste Generated in Operations were included in our Scope 3 emissions inventory, the subtotals would be: 88,166; 72,602; 75,536; 105,424; 97,547; 105,246; and 105,327 MTCO2e for the years 2019 through 2025, respectively.

Sustainability Report 2025  2928  Sustainability Report 2025 Environmental Case Study: Building Decarbonization Tool* Renewable Energy VORNADO PROCURES renewable energy certificates (RECs) to demonstrate our commitment to renewable energy and environmental stewardship. In 2025, Vornado’s buildings in both New York and Chicago used 100% renewable energy through the procurement of bundled RECs. In San Francisco, our buildings sourced 100% in-state, off-site clean energy, aligning with the city’s clean power and carbon-neutrality goals. This product was selected as a localized solution that supports investment in renewable energy infrastructure in California, advances statewide decarbonization goals, and increases access to clean energy for local communities. In a recent development, Vornado has completed Sunset Pier 94 Studios, the first purpose-built studio campus in Manhattan. In partnership with Hudson Pacific Properties, Blackstone, the City of New York, and New York City Economic Development Corporation, the multiuse project has delivered first- of-its-kind space, home to both state-of-the-art film and production technology. With the installation of a 700kW system, the property hosts the second-largest solar array in Manhattan. The regional grids in which we operate have established decarbonization targets that are expected to enable our electricity and district steam operations to become carbon free by 2050. Until these grid-level goals are achieved, off-site renewable energy serves as a supplemental strategy, providing a virtual offset to our Scope 2 emissions. Vornado regularly evaluates opportunities to invest in renewable energy and believes that on-site renewable generation is among the most impactful methods for reducing market-based carbon emissions. With changes to eGRID factors in recent years, location-based emissions are expected to increase in the near term until additional renewable energy is incorporated into regional electricity grids. These emissions represent the remaining balance not reduced through energy efficiency measures, demand optimization, or renewable energy procurement. As electricity consumption declines through ongoing efficiency initiatives and regional grids decarbonize over time, our reliance on REC procurement is expected to decrease. SASB IF-RE-130a.5 We completed the design of a new decarbonization calculator in 2024 and continued refining the tool in 2025 to more accurately ref lect building operations, including the integration of cogeneration facilities. The tool incorporates more aggressive utility rate escalation assumptions to better align with planned decarbonization efforts by local electricity and district steam systems. Using this enhanced modeling, we prioritized buildings where targeted capital investments can deliver meaningful performance improvements. The tool identifies projects that reduce operating expenses and offer reasonable payback periods while ensuring that more capital-intensive measures—such as chiller replacements—are timed to coincide with the end of existing equipment’s useful life. As a result, we have been able to strategically select and budget projects over the next five years that advance our Vision 2030 goals while reducing exposure to emissions-based regulations, including New York City’s Local Law 97. For buildings without a financially viable pathway to near-term carbon neutrality, the tool estimates the cost of procuring RECs and carbon offsets until grid decarbonization progresses. These projected costs serve as an important input when evaluating each asset’s long-term compliance with building performance standards and carbon regulations. *This disclosure was not subject to Deloitte & Touche LLP’s review or examination and, accordingly, Deloitte & Touche LLP does not express a conclusion, opinion, or any form of assurance on such information. 1290 AVENUE OF THE AMERICAS  1290 Avenue of the Americas’ new amenity space, the Pavilion and Meadow, offers a 17th- floor sky park, landscaped terraces, wellness and fitness facilities, flexible indoor-outdoor lounges, and social spaces that enhance tenant well-being and community connectivity.

Sustainability Report 2025  4342  Sustainability Report 2025 Environmental / Energy Efficiency Programs Energy Efficiency Programs GRI 2-24, 3-3, SASB IF-RE-130a.5 ENERGY MANAGEMENT is integrated into our annual operations and investment oversight processes and evaluated through a climate-related risk framework that informs asset management, capital allocation, and long-term portfolio strategy. We monitor energy consumption, utility costs, and building performance metrics to identify efficiency opportunities, manage operational risk, and support resilience across the portfolio. Recent National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) data indicate that since 2023, the U.S has experienced some of the warmest years in the instrumental record, with 2024 the warmest to date, and 2025 among the warmest. The U.S. Climate Extremes Index remained elevated — particularly in 2025 — reflecting increased temperature variability, including sustained above-normal conditions in New York, Chicago, and San Francisco, our key markets, which affects building operations, energy demand, and infrastructure performance. In managing these risks, we rely on the expertise of our building Chief Engineers and their operating teams who assess conditions, optimize system performance, and implement asset-specific operational strategies. Their on-site knowledge, supported by centralized oversight and third-party engineering assessments, enables informed decisions regarding preventive maintenance, system upgrades, emergency preparedness, and capital planning. Energy performance is evaluated using quantitative metrics, including consumption and cost per square foot, and benchmarked against industry standards to support disciplined investment decisions and long-term asset value preservation. Our energy management program is embedded within our portfolio strategy and capital allocation framework, reflecting our focus on operational performance and value preservation. Capital investments are evaluated annually based on projected performance improvements, lifecycle considerations, and alignment with our sustainability objectives. Implementation is supported by our centralized energy management team and executed by experienced operators and Chief Engineers. We also partner with third-party engineering firms to conduct ASHRAE Level II Energy Audits and retro-commissioning at all New York City, Chicago, and San Francisco properties over 50,000 square feet, creating a collaborative framework that strengthens technical rigor and informs continuous improvement. In New York City, these assessments support compliance with Local Law 87 and guide capital planning priorities focused on measurable efficiency gains and long-term strategy. In 2025, we completed our second full year of portfolio-wide operational optimization. As building conditions evolved amid increased extreme weather variability and higher occupancy levels across our properties, we continued to focus on enhancing system performance, operational efficiency, and reliability. Building on zero-cost, high-impact initiatives implemented in 2023 and 2024, our efforts in 2025 emphasized targeted, low-cost enhancements to building control systems designed to maintain optimal performance under varying demand conditions. These measures included correcting improperly positioned outside air sensors that affected heating and cooling functionality, addressing malfunctioning floor damper controls requiring manual intervention, and eliminating instances of equipment operating in bypass mode. These initiatives reinforce continued portfolio-wide performance improvements, building on prior energy reductions of 10% in 2023, 5% in 2024, and 1% in 2025. Through time, these results reflect the cumulative impact of disciplined operational enhancements and an increasingly efficient portfolio baseline. To sustain and further advance these gains, we intend to implement portfolio- wide retro-commissioning of building management systems, strengthening system optimization, reinforcing operational consistency, and supporting the long-term persistence of efficiency improvements across the portfolio. At 61 9th Avenue, BMS programming and system setpoints were optimized to improve energy efficiency and operational performance. Enhancements included load-based pump control, implementing night setback reset setpoints, adjustable fan and cooling tower speed limits, and real-time energy use monitoring to increase transparency and accountability. These measures reduced unnecessary equipment runtime and stabilized system operation, resulting in an average decrease of 12%, or 49,910 kWh below previous year performance. This equals approximately 23.2 MTCO2e avoided, or approximately 59,000 miles** not driven by an average gasoline-powered passenger vehicle. These changes support improved occupant comfort, responsible energy management, and Vornado’s focus on enhancing system efficiency. Operational Optimization* Over time, we have replaced steam- and gas-fired chillers with ultra-high-efficiency electric chillers as existing equipment reaches the end of its useful life. Full electrification of building heating systems is not yet cost-effective and would be highly disruptive to building occupants; therefore, we will continue to rely on district steam heating where it is currently available. Across the portfolio, a limited number of boilers continue to operate on #2 fuel oil or a hybrid of fuel oil and natural gas. At One Park Avenue we evaluated electrification and district steam but determined that the most efficient and impactful building decarbonization path, while maintaining tenant health and shareholder value, is to move to a 99% biofuel blend that reduces emissions by approximately 74% per mBTU of heat generated compared to current #2 fuel oil. Biofuel (TruBurn)* In 2025, we completed 2,778 hours of building operator training in partnership with Smith Engineering and NYSERDA. The program covered a broad range of HVAC-related topics, including chiller and boiler fundamentals, maintenance and optimization, energy conservation measures, decarbonization strategies, utility bill analysis, and retro- commissioning. The training was designed to ensure that all building operators—not only chief engineers—actively participate in identifying, monitoring, and reducing energy waste. By equipping operators with both technical knowledge and practical tools, the program empowers teams to make informed decisions about equipment scheduling and operations that improve energy performance. In addition, we partnered with the Urban Green Council to offer Green Professional (GPRO) certification to employees, reinforcing the integration of high-performance practices into daily operations. The GPRO Operations and Maintenance Essentials track is an eight-hour course, targeted to property managers and operating engineers. The program covers building system, actionable steps to improve health and efficiency, and methods for evaluating the costs and benefits of efficiency measures. In 2025, 19 employees completed the course, including 13 operating engineers, representing a total of 152 training hours.

Sustainability Report 2025  4544  Sustainability Report 2025 Environmental / Energy Efficiency Programs VORNADO HAS PARTICIPATED in demand response programs for more than a decade and remains committed to voluntarily reducing electricity usage during periods of regional grid distress. Our primary curtailment strategies include reducing fan speeds and shifting from electric to steam chillers where available. These measures allow us to curtail load without impacting tenant comfort. In recent years, tenants have also become active partners by voluntarily turning off nonessential lighting and equipment. In 2025, our demand response participation delivered 6.4 MW of curtailment across New York City properties, 4.2 MW at THE MART, and 800 kW at 555 California. To maintain overall portfolio impact and support our local grids while improving baseline efficiency in our buildings, we continue to enroll additional buildings that had not previously participated. Recognizing that even modest reductions are critical during grid emergencies, our enrolled buildings range from 30 kW to 1 MW of curtailment capacity. Demand Response* In 2025, we completed our first cycle of compliance with Local Law 97 without incurring any fines and do not currently anticipate fines for any Vornado managed buildings between 2025 and 2029. To address 2030 requirements, we are implementing operational optimization programs across our portfolio and deploying targeted capital upgrades. We actively engage with the New York City Department of Buildings (DOB) to ensure they understand operational nuances that may warrant additional time to file or exceptions to standard compliance guidelines. For example, we highlighted that exterior LED signage, while significantly increasing electricity consumption, is sometimes required by zoning regulations and should be considered separately from a building’s total energy use. To further support effective policy implementation, we participate in the Local Law 97 Advisory Board, the weekly Service Provider & DOB Check-in, and, most recently, the LL97 District Steam Decarbonization Working Group. These engagements allow us to proactively collaborate with regulators while advancing our Vision 2030 emissions reduction goals. New York City's Local Law 97 ENERGY STAR and NextGen Certifications Portfolio-Wide Autonomous BMS Platform* We are expanding the use of PingCx’s autonomous building management system (BMS) commissioning platform across our office portfolio. While traditional retro-commissioning delivers meaningful benefits, it is time- and labor-intensive and typically tests only a subset of building control sequences. PingCx enables rapid, point-by-point testing at scale, allowing comprehensive commissioning of approximately 19,000 data points across 3,100 functional tests at a pilot location in just 2.5 days. Notably, even in a high-performing building with an ENERGY STAR® score of 87 and ENERGY STAR NextGen certification, a significant number of BMS sequences were identified as having deficiencies. Correcting these inefficiencies is expected to generate more than $230,000 in annual cost savings and reduce emissions by approximately 1,900 metric tons of CO₂. In 2025, we achieved ENERGY STAR and ENERGY STAR® NextGen certifications across 15 properties, representing more than 12.7 million square feet—the highest number in our portfolio to date. Ten properties earned ENERGY STAR® NextGen certification, recognizing the nation’s most energy-efficient, low-emissions buildings. These assets meet building-type- and climate- zone-specific direct emissions targets, reflecting the benefit of integrating energy management practices into daily operations. Among the certified properties, nine maintained prior ENERGY STAR status, including three certified for at least ten consecutive years, demonstrating sustained operational excellence. One property earned certification for the first time, and another regained it for the second consecutive year. To honor these accomplishments, we recognized Property Managers and Chief Engineers on October 14, 2025, with a team luncheon and commemorative plaques celebrating their leadership and commitment to energy efficiency and emissions reduction.

Sustainability Report 2025  4746  Sustainability Report 2025 Environmental ULI Net Zero By 2050 Vornado continues to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions through its existing commitment to carbon neutrality and has also committed to ULI Greenprint's Net Zero by 2050 goal. We have committed to the Whole Building, Operational Carbon Track, which includes reducing operational carbon to net zero in landlord and tenant spaces. Vornado joined this initiative in 2023 with a 2019 base year and will leverage its resources in technology, engineering, and consulting experience to further decarbonize the portfolio. “Leading businesses, manufacturers, cities, states, universities, and school districts commit to improving energy efficiency throughout their building portfolio by at least 20% over 10 years and share their strategies and results.” — BETTER BUILDINGS CHALLENGE Better Buildings Challenge *This disclosure was not subject to Deloitte & Touche LLP’s review and, accordingly, Deloitte & Touche LLP does not express a conclusion, opinion, or any form of assurance on such information. * Vornado’s Science-based target commitment was approved using the financial control method from the World Resource Institute’s Greenhouse Gas Protocol: A Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard: Revised Edition. We report all consolidated entities, and unconsolidated joint ventures where we influence operational control in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. Buildings not included are those under development as listed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. For buildings that have a pro rata share ownership percentage, RECs are subtracted from total energy usage prior to emission calculations. **GHG emissions data was subject to Deloitte & Touche LLP’s Limited Assurance, see page 127 for Independent Accountant's Report. SBTi/GHG Emissions Vornado’s emissions reduction targets have been approved by the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as aligned with a 1.5°C climate scenario. As of 2025, we have achieved a 58% reduction in market-based emissions and a 7% reduction in location-based emissions. Vornado evaluates its greenhouse gas emissions using both location-based and market-based methodologies. Location-based emissions reflect portfolio performance based on average grid emission factors, while market-based emissions reflect the emissions associated with our electricity purchasing decisions. On June 12, 2025, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency released updated 2023 eGRID emission factors, which have been applied to our greenhouse gas emissions reporting. In the New York City region—the largest area in which Vornado operates—the grid’s increased reliance on nonrenewable energy sources resulted in a significant increase in emission factors compared to the 2020 eGRID data. These system-level changes will continue to affect our location-based emissions performance until long-term renewable solutions are implemented across the regional grid. To address these impacts, we continue to deploy portfolio-wide optimization strategies, enhance the emissions performance of our existing buildings, and apply high-performance sustainable design principles across all new developments. Beginning in 2021, our location-based Scope 2 emissions have differed significantly from our market-based Scope 2 emissions due to our investment in renewable energy certificates. In accordance with our SBTi commitment, we will continue to report Scope 2 emissions using both location- and market-based approaches.

In 2025, Con Edison filed with the Public Service Commission (PSC) to increase gas and electric rates for 2026–2028. Following an 11-month process, the NYECC and other stakeholders reached a joint proposal for PSC consideration. The NYECC played a key role in significantly reducing Con Edison’s initial request for electricity rate increases—from $7.6 billion over three years to $1.6 billion— and gas rate increases—from $2 billion over three years to $213 million. This represents a reduction in the requested electric rate increase from 38.2% to 11.9% and a reduction in the requested gas rate increase from 37.3% to 7.1%. NYECC will also be engaged in upcoming steam rate tariff proceedings. In addition to rate negotiations, NYECC organizes educational events on key energy topics. On May 22, 2025, NYECC hosted its third Annual State of the Grid event, featuring a panel discussion on the transition of the electric grid to renewable energy in alignment with the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act. The panel explored the implications of electrification on grid reliability, resilience, and pricing, providing participants with actionable insights on the evolving energy landscape. New York Energy Consumers Council Policy & Decarbonization The Sustainability Team at Vornado is involved with organizations, panels, and conferences, playing a critical role in educating policymakers and stakeholders on developing and implementing responsible strategies that balance return on investment (ROI) with regulation. Our involvement supports the broader industry and communities in several ways by helping to shape industry-wide sustainability standards and best practices, which can inform policymakers on feasible, market-driven solutions. Through panel discussions and public speaking, our team shares real-world data on the financial and environmental benefits of sustainable building practices. By demonstrating how energy efficiency, green building retrofits, and carbon reduction strategies enhance long-term ROI, we provide a compelling case for policies that incentivize developers and support policymakers. By working with government agencies and legislative bodies, Vornado helps shape policies that promote sustainability without stif ling economic growth. This includes advocating for incentives for energy efficiency and decarbonization upgrades, streamlined permitting for energy-efficient buildings, and public-private partnerships to accelerate carbon reduction. When major real estate firms like Vornado publicly champion sustainability, it signals to both the market and policymakers that sustainable investment is viable and beneficial. This can lead to broader acceptance of policies that drive responsible urban development. By leveraging our platform, Vornado works to bridge the gap between government policy and real estate market realities, seeks to ensure that sustainability regulations are both effective and economically sound.


 

Sustainability Report 2025  4948  Sustainability Report 2025 AT VORNADO, sustainability and resilience are important lenses through which we view all development projects at any scale.

As our development queue evolves and expands, Vornado commenced tracking GHG emissions for this key function of our business. Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions* GHG emissions for properties under development 2025 Scope 1 171 Scope 2 Location-based 137 Scope 3 Category 13 - Downstream leased assets 70 Total emissions (Scope 1 + 2 + 3) 378 GHG emissions by scope (MTCO2e) Vornado has committed to a target of reducing embodied carbon intensity by 10% across new development projects, reinforcing our broader strategy to decarbonize both new construction and our existing real estate portfolio. Each project is evaluated for additional reduction opportunities based on scope, building type, and construction approach, recognizing that embodied carbon strategies must be tailored to specific project conditions. To support this commitment, Vornado conducts a whole- building life-cycle assessment (WBLCA) for all new development and major redevelopment projects to identify the most effective pathways to meet—or exceed—our embodied carbon reduction target. Our assessments are informed by LEED v4 guidance, including the Materials and Resources Credit: Building Life-Cycle Impact Reduction, which serves as a foundational methodology for evaluating design and construction options. In April 2024, Vornado released its Embodied Carbon Framework, developed in partnership with Atelier Ten, to establish a consistent approach to embodied carbon tracking, goal setting, and implementation across future development projects. The Framework is designed as a living document, updated periodically to reflect evolving best practices, project experience, and future decarbonization goals. It is applied on a project-by-project basis to guide early design decisions and inform material selection, structural systems, and construction strategies. The Framework builds on early embodied carbon studies completed for the Moynihan Train Hall (Farley Building) and the PENN 1 and PENN 2 redevelopments, which helped establish baseline performance metrics and shape Vornado’s long-term embodied carbon strategy. These analyses informed internal discussions on target setting, reporting consistency, and portfolio- wide application. Organized around corporate policy, project implementation, tools for project teams, and assessment methods, the Framework supports procurement of lower-carbon materials, standardized tracking and reporting, and integration of carbon-conscious design strategies across new construction, major renovations, and interior fit-outs. Together, these efforts provide a clear pathway to reduce embodied carbon, improve transparency, and advance Vornado’s climate leadership across its development portfolio. Vornado completed construction of The Meadow, a new tenant amenity that advances the firm’s Live.Work.Do approach to development—integrating sustainability, wellness, and community directly into the workplace. Designed as a cultivated parkland and shared community space, The Meadow brings nature into the office environment, creating a seamless connection between work, social interaction, and restoration. The project combines a 10,000-square- foot landscaped rooftop park with 15,000 square feet of f lexible meeting and gathering space called The Pavilion, supporting both formal collaboration and informal connection. By embedding high- quality open space within an existing building, The Meadow exemplifies adaptive reuse and efficient use of the built environment while enhancing the tenant experience without expanding the building footprint.

Green Roofs & Stormwater Retention Our new roof landscape systems are designed to absorb and retain stormwater and to slow runoff into the urban landscape and surrounding infrastructure. Green and white roofs also insulate our buildings; reduce current and future demand for heating and cooling; and contribute to heat island reduction, which provides local relief to surface temperature. Glazing & Envelope Our new glazing and envelope systems are designed to withstand heavy wind and ice conditions. They also are designed to reduce solar heat gains and improve insulation values to minimize heating and cooling demand. Flood Barriers When a new building is located in a flood zone, we anchor temporary walls and venting systems inside our building lobbies to accommodate storm surges and floods and their associated water pressure buildup without damaging the building. At our existing buildings, we install temporary exterior barriers to prevent floodwater from touching the building envelope. Backup Generation We install backup generation to support, at minimum, fire and life safety systems as well as critical infrastructure. Energy Management & Smart Building Technology Our buildings have the ability to reduce demand during climate events that cause the local grids to operate close to capacity while continuing to provide comfortable conditions at buildings. On-Site Renewables We assess opportunities to install on-site renewables at buildings that have the appropriate layout. This positions the building to accommodate on-site renewables, equipping it to operate cleanly and continue to operate if the local grid experiences interruption. THE PENN DISTRICT  Vornado’s governance framework emphasizes ethical conduct, strong Board oversight, independent leadership, and robust committee charters, with the Board and Corporate Governance Committee overseeing sustainability, risk management, and long-term shareholder value. THE PENN DISTRICT has become a successful example of how transit-oriented development, adaptive reuse, and community- centered placemaking can work together to revitalize a dense urban core. Built atop one of North America’s busiest transportation hubs, The District leverages its unparalleled access to rail and subway infrastructure to reduce reliance on cars, support low-carbon commuting, and strengthen connectivity between workplaces, neighborhoods, and the region. Rather than pursuing large-scale demolition and new construction, THE PENN DISTRICT’s transformation has prioritized adaptive reuse of existing buildings and infrastructure, significantly lowering embodied carbon while accelerating delivery of high-performance, modernized spaces. This approach has allowed legacy assets to be repositioned as sustainable, resilient workplaces and vibrant public destinations. In 2025, The District emerged as a dynamic hub for community life and programming, activated through a network of indoor and outdoor spaces designed for accessibility and social connection. Amenities such as the 280-person Town Hall at PENN 2, a 40,000-square-foot event space, and the bleacher-style seating and large screen at PENN 1 support gatherings ranging from civic dialogue and thought leadership to cultural and recreational events. Plaza 33 anchors The DISTRICT’s public realm, offering free programming—including music, dance, and educational series—developed in partnership with the 34th Street Partnership. Across THE PENN DISTRICT, acres of publicly accessible space, including plazas, entries, and lobbies, foster inclusive engagement among office tenants, commuters, and local residents. WorkLife Events by Skylight further animate these venues with programming that spans wellness, learning, and entertainment. With approximately 650,000 daily commuters passing through Penn Station, THE PENN DISTRICT demonstrates how a transit hub can evolve into a sustainable, community-focused destination— one that aligns mobility, reuse, and placemaking to create lasting urban value and a replicable model for cities worldwide.

Sustainability Report 2025  5756  Sustainability Report 2025 Path to Zero Waste* VORNADO has established itself as a leader in sustainable waste management by implementing comprehensive organic waste collection programs across our office portfolio. These initiatives have delivered impactful results: a 56% waste diversion rate, keeping 2,563 metric tons of food waste out of landfills, and avoiding 15,678 MTCO2e in emissions. Our success extends beyond tenant participation—we've cultivated a company-wide commitment to zero waste. Corporate offices in all three operational regions—New York, Chicago, and San Francisco—maintain internal composting programs and join tenants in annual zero- waste training sessions, embedding environmental stewardship into every level of our organization. Vornado tracks waste data comprehensively through annual audits across our commercial office portfolio and detailed monthly diversion reporting. This rigorous data collection informs targeted programs that drive continuous improvement in waste reduction. Our analytics enable us to measure progress, identify opportunities, and implement strategic solutions that advance our zero-waste goals. 100% 11.6 97% access to our organics collection program, representing 27.1 million SF of our in-service office portfolio. million SF of tenant space participating in our organic waste diversion program. waste stream audits performed in our in-service office portfolio. Data Tracking** Vornado has set an ambitious target: divert 75% of waste from landfills and incineration by 2030. Our multipronged strategy centers on tenant engagement, with a particular focus on organic waste management. Increasing tenant participation in our organics program is the foundation of this effort. Food waste accounts for nearly 40% of our waste stream, making the practice of preventing food waste from going to landfill and diverting it via organics collection our highest-impact opportunity. To accelerate adoption, we're evaluating cutting-edge composting technologies that make workplace composting seamless and intuitive. Data drives our decision- making. Annual waste audits and comprehensive waste data tracking inform targeted tenant education and pinpoint improvement opportunities, enabling us to develop customized strategies for both internal operations and tenant practices. Our year-round zero-waste and circularity education includes structured tenant roundtables, hands-on waste sorting demonstrations ("sort- a-thons"), and dedicated onboarding support.

Sustainability Report 2025  5958  Sustainability Report 2025 Environmental Annual Waste Auditing with Common Ground Compost* Waste auditing is one of the most important and impactful tools in a zero-waste program. It provides a unique opportunity to collect granular, tenant-level waste data that goes beyond hauling metrics. Collecting this valuable waste data reveals the full story of what’s happening inside our buildings. At Vornado, we conduct waste audits annually with our partners at Common Ground Compost (CGC). Commercial building waste audits are systematic assessments of the waste generated within a commercial property to understand what's being thrown away, how much is being discarded, and where it's coming from. These data points are used to identify opportunities to reduce waste, improve education, and redesign waste infrastructure, messaging, and signage to encourage maximum diversion from landfills and incineration. Waste audits can be powerful catalysts for change in commercial office settings when data is used strategically. When audits can identify waste by floor or tenant, it enables targeted conversations with specific occupants about their performance. Discovering that certain items (like coffee cups or single-use disposables) are frequently mis-sorted leads to targeted visual guides. High volumes of food waste justify implementing a composting program; excessive cardboard might warrant a baling system. Audit-informed data can also shed light on recycling behavior by bin and station type (pantry vs. desk-side bins). In the graph below, we can see that desk-side bins have the lowest average correct sorting rate, with only 19.8% sorted correctly during the annual audit exercise. This pattern of contamination, which we observe each year in our audit exercise, has led to a concerted effort to encourage tenants to remove these bin types altogether. We can also measure year-over-year metrics for tenants, like increased diversion and potential diversion if specific strategies are implemented. For example, in one tenant space, the first audit showed a 28% diversion rate in 2023. However, after the team held an interactive sort-a-thon event in their space and conducted targeted waste education around their organics program, the diversion rate jumped to 50.6% the following year. As our waste program evolved, the need for consistent, accurate waste data became essential for reporting progress, managing operations, and engaging tenants. To solve this challenge, we partnered with WATS, a waste data platform that transforms fragmented waste data into a measurable utility. Together, we built a scalable foundation for tracking waste in the same way we treat energy and water— accurately, consistently, and at the portfolio level. Streamlined & Efficient Reporting WATS standardizes monthly waste data across our vendors and sites, and feeds validated data into our sustainability reporting platform, replacing spreadsheet consolidation with automated invoice ingestion and gap detection. This eliminates manual translation of files and gives corporate stakeholders confidence that waste data is complete before reporting. WATS now supports monthly waste reporting across 30 properties and 26 active tenants. Tenant Engagement & Data Coverage To improve diversion accuracy, WATS facilitates tenant-level access so tenants can view and contribute their own waste data. With 600+ tenant user accounts ref lected in WATS, we are building a shared accountability model and a more complete diversion narrative across each building. Digitized Operations & Training WATS helped us digitize waste operations at 25 NYC buildings, turning spreadsheets and site walkthroughs into easily accessible training tools. This visual format now supports janitorial onboarding, clarifies roles, and strengthens communication between operations and sustainability teams.

Sustainability Report 2025  6160  Sustainability Report 2025 GRI 2-24, 3-3, 303-1, 303-3, SASB IF-RE-140a.4 Water* VORNADO is committed to reducing demand. In 2020, Vornado committed to a 10% water reduction. Since then, this goal has been met year over year, resulting in an increased water reduction goal of maintaining 30% reduction below the 2019 baseline year as occupancy continues to increase across our portfolio. Environmental Water Use Vornado’s water consumption primarily stems from four sources across our properties. Potable Drinking Water: Water meeting safe drinking standards from fountains, water coolers, kitchen taps, and other sources for human consumption. General Plumbing Facilities: Refers to water consumed by standard plumbing fixtures inclusive of toilets, urinals, sinks, faucets, showers, and janitorial sinks. HVAC Systems: Water consumed by heating, ventilation, and air conditioning equipment. This water is used for purposes of cooling and heating. Examples include cooling towers and boilers for steam or hot water heating. Specialized Business Operations: Tenant uses requiring water beyond standard office or retail operations, including fitness centers with showers and locker rooms, on-site dining facilities, industrial dishwashers, and coffee bars. Water Policies Water Stress—Annual Portfolio Analysis: Our properties face water-related challenges typical of major urban centers. To assess and monitor these risks we use FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and the World Resources Institute's (WRI) Aqueduct Water Risk Atlas. Our analysis reveals that approximately 16% of our portfolio operates in regions classified as having high or extremely high baseline water stress. This reflects areas where annual water withdrawals approach or exceed sustainable levels. Our New York and San Francisco properties experience medium to high interannual variability in water availability, while San Francisco assets face medium to high seasonal fluctuations, requiring enhanced monitoring and management strategies. This understanding of risk enables us to implement targeted mitigation strategies and maintain operational resilience. Lease-Driven Provisions: Vornado's lease structure promotes environmental stewardship by establishing high- performance, sustainably designed tenant spaces and creating an operational framework that empowers tenants to measure and manage their environmental impact. Tenant Fit-Out Guidelines: Incorporate enhanced standards for water efficient plumbing fixtures. These requirements are codified in our leases and building regulations, ensuring consistent implementation across our portfolio. Water Regulations Vornado faces increasing water-related regulatory obligations and costs driven by several factors. Infrastructure Requirements: Municipal water and sewer infrastructure development and maintenance costs are regularly passed through to users, resulting in ongoing increases to our base water expenses. Discharge Management: We incur significant costs related to water discharge, including standard sewage treatment fees and specialized expenses for thermal management of discharged water to meet temperature requirements. Future Regulatory Considerations: We anticipate additional regulatory requirements, particularly in stormwater management, which may necessitate new infrastructure investments and operational modifications. These factors indicate higher water- related operating expenses, requiring proactive management strategies to maintain operational efficiency while meeting all regulatory obligations. Water Infrastructure Initiatives Plumbing Infrastructure Enhancement: As part of the annual capital improvement process, we systematically upgrade restroom plumbing fixtures with low-flow alternatives during scheduled renovations, ensuring consistent progress in reducing water consumption across our portfolio. Leak Detection: These monitoring systems are strategically installed across critical water access points, including working pantries, cold water supply lines to hot water tanks, engine rooms, and all sprinkler systems. Local controls enable rapid response to potential leaks. HVAC System Optimization: Our water efficiency program incorporates multiple water reduction and reuse initiatives. Key components include the following: redirecting excess steam condensate to cooling towers to minimize sewer discharge; implementing more efficient mechanical systems in cooling tower operations; and maintaining rigorous service schedules for chiller systems to ensure optimal performance. Stormwater Management Innovation: For new construction and redevelopment projects, we employ advanced stormwater management solutions. These include the following: installing stormwater retention tanks that capture and repurpose water for irrigation and cooling tower operations; developing green roofs and terraces that naturally capture and filter stormwater; and integrating sustainable design principles that minimize runoff impact. *Any information relating to forward-looking statements, targets, goals, progress against goals, and linked information was not subject to Deloitte & Touche LLP’s review or examination and, accordingly, Deloitte & Touche LLP does not express a conclusion or any form of assurance on such information.

Case Study: Scaling Sustainability Through Comprehensive Training BMS recognizes that effective green cleaning depends on well-trained staff who understand both environmental best practices and workplace safety. In 2025, our team completed 8,865 hours of training through our digital learning platform, available in 80 languages to ensure accessibility across our diverse workforce. This multi-lingual, multi-format approach enables us to deliver comprehensive green cleaning education at scale, empowering every team member to contribute to our sustainability goals. Our process motivates staff to contribute to our sustainability goals through practical skills: proper product dilution and application techniques that reduce chemical waste, participation in waste audits that identify tenant- level improvements, and hands-on data collection. This training is tailored to each building's unique infrastructure and the specific sustainability initiatives in place, ensuring that staff develop skills directly applicable to their operational environment. For example, at THE MART, trained staff measure waste by stream and tenant at the loading dock with calibrated scales, directly informing our reduction strategies in the Chicago region.

Safety Stations Our strategically placed safety stations provide centralized access to essential safety resources. These stations house personal protective equipment, comprehensive Safety Data Sheet (SDS) documentation, procedural guidelines, emergency response equipment, and regulatory-compliant disposal systems for sharps and blood-borne pathogens. This consolidated approach ensures immediate access to critical safety materials when needed. Pathogen Safety Our pathogen safety protocols emphasize prevention. Staff receive comprehensive training covering epidemiology, transmission vectors, exposure prevention strategies, and emergency response procedures. This training emphasizes practical application across various operational scenarios, ensuring our team can respond effectively to potential exposure situations. By maintaining heightened awareness and preparedness, we protect both our workforce and building occupants from the transmission of infectious diseases. Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) The Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) process is our systematic approach to proactive risk management. Through detailed assessments of engineering and janitorial operations, we identify potential hazards before they become incidents and implement appropriate control measures. This analysis integrates multiple layers of protection: engineering controls, workplace modifications, administrative procedures, and PPE requirements for safe task execution. By continuously evaluating job tasks and updating our protocols, we create safer work environments and empower employees to recognize and address hazards in real time.

Sustainability Report 2025  7776  Sustainability Report 2025 Marvin Johnson Manager, Accounts Receivable-Collections Elizabeth Romero Property Manager Debra Martinez Property Manager Michael Siau IT Support Analyst I chose to make my career at Vornado because it represented the ultimate step in my professional journey. Since joining in 2007, my tenure has been a rewarding mix of challenges and personal growth. The decision was easy; Vornado provided the ideal environment to apply my industry experience within a premier organization. My best memory was stepping into my leadership role. Accepting a promotion that expanded my oversight allowed me to train new employees, collaborate across departments, and influence daily procedures. At Vornado, I’ve found a culture that transforms a job into a long-term, evolving career of meaningful impact. Vornado is the only firm I’ve called home since moving to New York in 2014, and I have been able to make my career here. I am deeply grateful for the mentorship and the constant opportunities to collaborate with our Engineering and Construction Department on industry-leading technology and sustainability projects. My favorite memory is working with the engineering team, and Chief Engineer Tom Mumm, to retrofit the landmarked Fuller Building. Seeing cooling towers craned to the 18th-floor setback was an incredible experience. This blend of technical challenge and collective expertise is exactly why I am proud to be part of Vornado’s mission. Property management is fast-paced, but the culture at Vornado is defined by collaboration; whether it’s a Senior Portfolio Manager or the Operations team, everyone is eager to help. I have built my career at Vornado because it is a top-tier organization that has nurtured my growth through education, training, and unwavering support. My favorite memories involve the diverse people I've met, especially through volunteering. Handing out lunches at Breaking Ground in Times Square was a humbling experience that deepened my connection to our community. Vornado’s commitment to both professional excellence and social impact makes it a truly rewarding place to work. I built my career at Vornado because of the personal satisfaction I get from empowering my colleagues. Whether resolving a software hurdle or a login issue, I am passionate about providing the technical support that allows our talented team to do their best work. It is truly rewarding to be part of a community of people I care about. Beyond helping others, I am inspired by our collaborative IT team. We work tirelessly behind the scenes to maintain and protect the systems that drive Vornado’s success. As technology evolves, I am excited to continue leveraging new tools to realize our leadership’s vision and support our collective growth. Alex Bedell Vice President, Leasing I chose to join Vornado because of the immense respect I have for its leasing team and the quality of its assets. In my two years with the company, I have seen how decisions are made quickly but always with discipline, integrity, and respect for both the tenants and brokers we work with. Beyond individual transactions, those principles guide how we manage, invest, and build responsibly, creating the best operating buildings in New York. One of my most meaningful memories to date was closing the complex master lease transaction with NYU at 770 Broadway and knowing that our cross-department collaboration helped shape something that will be part of the city for decades. It was a reminder that what we do at Vornado is long-term, thoughtful, and connected to the communities our properties serve. Bella Cortazar Property Manager I started in an entry-level role and have advanced into management in my time at Vornado, and I’ve always felt empowered by the resources and encouragement provided to take on new challenges. I built my career at Vornado because of the unique opportunity for long-term growth within a supportive environment. My favorite times throughout my career aren’t single moments but the everyday experiences of collaborating across our diverse portfolio. Each building transition felt like a new chapter where I was welcomed by talented colleagues eager to share knowledge. It is this culture of dedication and mutual respect that makes my journey at Vornado truly meaningful. Jennifer Greenan Manager, Accounts Payable I have made my career at Vornado because hard work is genuinely rewarded. Over the last 12 years, I have advanced from an administrative assistant to department manager, supported by a culture that truly values its people. It’s easy to see why so many colleagues stay for decades; the sense of being valued is unparalleled. My favorite memory is volunteering with the Central Park Conservancy. The Vornado Volunteers program allowed me to give back to our community while connecting with others dedicated to preserving the city. Working outdoors alongside such an amazing team was a humbling and incredibly rewarding experience. Engagement at Vornado Our employees are our greatest asset. In their own words, here’s what they had to say about their journeys working at Vornado. People & Places


 

Sustainability Report 2025  7978  Sustainability Report 2025 GRI 2-24, 3-3, 413-1 Vornado Volunteers Vornado supports volunteerism that enhances and serves the communities in which we live and work. Through employee engagement and social impact assessment, Vornado Volunteers identify local community organizations focused on economically and socially disadvantaged populations, environmental restoration and protection, and health and wellness. We have partnered with Breaking Ground to provide intervention and support services for the homeless population around THE PENN DISTRICT. Michael Franco, Vornado’s President and CFO, has been a Breaking Ground Director since 2012 and its Chairman since 2015.

Sustainability Report 2025  8786  Sustainability Report 2025 Governance / Climate-Related Strategy & Analysis GRI 2-23, 2-24, 3-2, 3-3, 201-2 Climate-Related Strategy & Analysis* We continue to work toward a better understanding of the impact of climate- related risks and opportunities, building upon our work in 2024 where we conducted a qualitative scenario analysis of our assets and operations and reviewed how the quantitative impacts of these risks and opportunities may be considered in the future. We continue to gather internal stakeholder input from executive management to build upon our 2024 TCFD Report for publication of an update in 2026. THE ANALYSIS EXAMINED two potential future scenarios: a “low-carbon economy” (LCE), aligned with the IPCC Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 2.6, and a “high-carbon economy” (HCE), aligned with RCP 8.5. We evaluated these scenarios across three time horizons to support different types of decision-making across the company. Risks and opportunities were assessed using a broad perspective, leveraging both proprietary Vornado data and publicly available climate scenario datasets. In 2023, we began using the Risk Factor™ tool to evaluate physical climate risks for our in-service office building portfolio. The tool generates results by event type, risk level, timeframe, and estimated cost, all derived from scientifically based models using validated, peer-reviewed resources. Risk scores are rated on a 1–10 scale, where 1 indicates minimal risk and 10 indicates extreme risk. *Any information relating to forward-looking statements, targets, goals, progress against goals, and linked information was not subject to Deloitte & Touche LLP’s review or examination and, accordingly, Deloitte & Touche LLP does not express a conclusion or any form of assurance on such information. **For more information on our climate-related strategy & analysis program, please reference the TCFD Index as well as Sustainable Development, including Resilience and Adaption sections and the SASB Disclosure on climate change risk, all within this 2025 Sustainability Report and our 2026 Proxy Statement. Physical Risks and Opportunities: Scenario Analysis Risk/Opportunity Scenario Description Acute Physical Risk: Increasing frequency of extreme weather events could lead to increased insurance costs and reduced availability of insurance. HCE In the medium- and long-term, increasing frequency of extreme flooding events in New York, Chicago, and California could lead to higher insurance premiums, reduced availability of insurance, and therefore potentially higher out-of-pocket costs. In the short-term, impacts are more limited. LCE Under all time horizons, extreme weather events may cause occasional flooding and damage. Insurance coverage will likely prevent significant financial losses and/or disruption to operations.

Sustainability Report 2025  8988  Sustainability Report 2025 Transitional Risks and Opportunities: Scenario Analysis* Governance / Climate-Related Strategy & Analysis *Any information relating to forward-looking statements, targets, goals, progress against goals, and linked information was not subject to Deloitte & Touche LLP’s review or examination and, accordingly, Deloitte & Touche LLP does not express a conclusion or any form of assurance on such information. Risk/Opportunity Scenario Description Policy and Legal Risk: New and emerging regu- lations relating to climate and building performance standards and disclosure (e.g., NY LL97, CA SB-261, CA AB-802 and US SEC Climate Rule) could lead to potential increases in compliance costs. HCE Under all time horizons, gradual increases in regulatory requirements may lead to minor compliance costs and operational disruptions. LCE Under all time horizons, moderate compliance costs and operational disruptions may be incurred from stringent disclosure of regulatory requirements and enforcement. Market/Technology Risk: Grid decarbonization could lead to increased utility costs. HCE In the short-term, prices of electricity and steam may rise as a result of minor grid decarbonization measures or general rate increases from utility companies. Minor increases in prices resulting from decarbonization investments in the medium- and long-term may be limited to only projects currently being implemented. LCE In the short- and medium-term, grid decarbonization investment costs by utility companies or the government may be passed on to Vornado through minor increased costs of electricity and steam. In the long-term, decarbonization may lead to significantly higher steam and electric generation costs. Market/Technology Risk: Grid decarbonization could lead to increased utility costs. HCE Under all time horizons, minor energy efficiency measures may have associated capital expenditure requirements and a positive return on investment from associated costs. LCE In the short- and medium-term, building upgrades and retrofits may result in additional capital expenditure, with a positive return on investment from associated costs. Long-term impacts are expected to be lower given the majority of the grid’s decarbonization should have occurred by 2040. Risk/Opportunity Scenario Description Market/Products and Services Opportunity: Responsible and green (re)development practices could lead to increased tenant attractiveness and/ or confidence from stakeholders (e.g., investors). HCE Under all time horizons, potential tenants may indicate a slight preference toward green development and may choose Vornado properties under an “all-else-equal” scenario. LCE In the short-term, green buildings may continue to factor into some tenant and investor preferences. In the medium- and long-term, green buildings will likely become an increasingly important factor in tenant and investor decisions, making green development a competitive advantage for Vornado. Energy Source/Resource Efficiency Opportunity: Increasing building energy efficiency and energy storage could lead to improved tenant retention, lower utility costs, increased resilience against extreme weather events, and increased regulatory compliance. HCE Under all time horizons, building energy efficiency and energy storage may lead to slight increases in tenant retention, resilience, and lower utility costs. LCE In the short-term, investors and tenants may display potential interest toward energy efficiency and storage. In the medium- and long-term, tenants may demonstrate that efficiency is a key concern, utility costs may decrease, buildings may demonstrate slightly better resilience during flooding events, and Vornado may be able to better comply with emerging regulations. There may be incentives across all time horizons associated with green energy purchasing from utility companies and government.

Sustainability Report 2025  9392  Sustainability Report 2025 Risk Management RESULTS of Vornado’s climate- related scenario analysis are integrated into our Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework and inform both property-level risk profiles and investment strategy. Each year, the Risk Committee reviews risk management procedures with input from executive leadership and each of Vornado’s business divisions. An Internal Audit Risk Assessment is conducted as needed to identify emerging and evolving risks that may impact the business. The results of this assessment are incorporated into an Internal Audit Plan, which assigns each identified risk a high, medium, or low rating across relevant risk categories and topics. Risk Assessments are presented to the Board Audit Committee at the beginning of the year. Upon approval, the plan is implemented, risks are monitored, and follow-up assessments are conducted at the direction of the Risk Committee. Throughout the year, the Sustainability Team and other business units actively manage and monitor material risk topics, leveraging the internal audit plan, established metrics and targets, and ongoing management and stakeholder feedback. Risk considerations are embedded into decision-making at all levels of the organization— from asset acquisition to the design and execution of renovations that enhance tenant experience. Vornado actively responds to the risks and opportunities identified through climate-related scenario analysis supported by our ability to adapt strategy and capital allocation across short-, medium-, and long-term time horizons. Climate risk and opportunity considerations are incorporated at each stage of the property life cycle.

Sustainability Report 2025  9594  Sustainability Report 2025 Governance / Technology & Cybersecurity Technology & Cybersecurity Cybersecurity VORNADO IS COMMITTED to rigorous cybersecurity standards with a comprehensive strategy to safeguard our data and computing environment. We collaborate with third-party services for continuous 24/7 network monitoring and vulnerability scans, with the goal of ensuring our cybersecurity is consistently updated and prepared for emerging threats. In addition, we support and supplement our cybersecurity efforts with physical security to further protect and maintain the network and computing equipment that allow us to operate our assets efficiently. We believe strongly in educating our employees by utilizing both online cybersecurity education and performing phishing campaigns to understand areas of additional educational need. Our distinct IoT and corporate networks enhance data and access segregation. Furthermore, our IoT network is highly segmented for additional security and to minimize vendor access. External firms conduct audits on our networks, reinforcing our dedication to maintaining the highest level of security. Our Executive Vice President, Chief Information Officer, provides formal reports to both the Audit Committee and Board of Trustees, outlining our current cybersecurity program and future enhancements, and assists them in overseeing the company. Our Objective Vornado's core information security goal is safeguarding information assets by actively monitoring networks, conducting tests, and implementing robust management of applications, infrastructure, and physical access. Vulnerability Management Workstations and servers undergo a rigorous patch management procedure, coupled with continuous automated security validation to proactively identify and remediate vulnerabilities. Our security measures encompass a multilayered approach, including real-time attack surface management, automated penetration testing, URL filtering, advanced email security, application allowlisting, and data encryption. Disaster Recovery/ Business Continuity We confirm the daily replication of our vital financial systems at our disaster recovery site. All corporate employees possess secure remote capabilities, ensuring uninterrupted performance of critical tasks for the enterprise. Regular drills and simulations validate the effectiveness of our recovery protocols, ensuring swift operational transition in case of disruptions. Additionally, we have an automated Active Directory recovery solution in place, enabling rapid restoration of directory services to minimize downtime and mitigate the impact of cyber incidents to the backup site in case of any unforeseen disruptions. Security Assessments Annually, we engage external cybersecurity experts to conduct comprehensive penetration tests and red team exercises to assess the strength of our security infrastructure. Through these initiatives, we proactively identify potential vulnerabilities and weaknesses in our systems. Any findings are promptly addressed and rectified, reinforcing our commitment to maintaining a resilient and secure environment for our operations. Employee Training and Outreach Our corporate workforce undergoes cybersecurity awareness training and participates in regular email phishing simulations to assess their vigilance. Ongoing communication through newsletters serves as a consistent reminder, fostering active involvement of our employees in our cyber defense efforts. Identity and Access Management We enforce strict identity and access controls to safeguard our systems and data. Our Identity & Access Management (IAM) system monitors application-level activities, detects suspicious behavior, and enforces mandatory Multi- Factor Authentication (MFA) for remote and sensitive access. To further enhance security, we implement a Privileged Access Management (PAM) system for sensitive accounts, utilizing an advanced authentication platform that enables strict monitoring, risk-based authentication, and adaptive enforcement to mitigate unauthorized access risks. Additionally, an employee verification system is in place to authenticate identity for critical requests, such as password and MFA resets, reducing the risk of social engineering attacks. Incident Response To ensure organizational readiness for cyber events, we have a well- crafted Cybersecurity Incident Response Plan (CSIRP). Regular validation and enhancement of the CSIRP take place through multidisciplinary tabletop exercises, ensuring its effectiveness and relevance in dynamic cyber- threat landscapes. Third-Party Risk Management A risk management process is in place for third-party service providers, suppliers, and vendors. This includes a thorough vetting process and ongoing monitoring mechanisms designed to ensure their compliance with cybersecurity standards. Third parties needing network access adhere to the same security protocols, including MFA, and undergo periodic audits to confirm the ongoing necessity of their access. Artificial Intelligence We employ AI tools in a measured and responsible manner to support operational efficiency and data analysis. AI systems are evaluated prior to deployment for data security, privacy, and vendor controls, and are governed by existing information security and access management policies. We continue to monitor emerging risks and regulatory developments to ensure responsible and secure use across the organization. CENTRALLY LOCATED IN the heart of Manhattan, Guard Management Services Co. (GMSC), our wholly owned subsidiary and our Internet of Things (IoT) and security team, is dedicated to providing reliable and efficient security integration solutions for our portfolio and tenants. With our expertise in access control, camera systems, and intelligent networks, we can help ensure the safety and security of our tenants, staff, and guests.

Our Board is deeply involved in the business and strategy of our Company, and the great depth of experience and insight that our Board members bring to meetings continues to be invaluable. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee and the Board believe that considering a Board candidate involves various objective and subjective assessments, many of which are difficult to quantify or categorize. However, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee and the Board do consider various characteristics, competencies, and attributes when considering candidates for inclusion on our Board. Sustainability Governance, pp. 10-11, Governance p. 84, and Governance: Board of Trustees p. 97 of this report. See pp. 13-20 of 2026 Proxy Statement issued April 7, 2026. 2-11 Chair of the highest governance body Mr. Roth has been the Chairman of our Board of Trustees since May 1989 and Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Board since April 1980. From May 1989 until May 2009, Mr. Roth served as our Chief Executive Officer. Since April 15, 2013, Mr. Roth has again been serving in that position. Since 1968, he has been a general partner of Interstate Properties (an owner of shopping centers and investor in securities and partnerships, “Interstate”) and he currently serves as its Managing General Partner. He is the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of our affiliate, Alexander’s, Inc.

Also, refer to GRI 2-15 regarding Conflicts of Interest. See p. 5 of 2026 Proxy Statement issued April 7, 2026. 2-12 Role of the highest governance body in overseeing the management of impacts While day-to-day risk management is primarily the responsibility of the Company’s senior management team,the Board is responsible for the overall supervision of the Company’s risk management activities. The Board’s oversight of the material risks faced by our Company occurs at both the full Board level and at the committee level. The Board’s role in the Company’s risk oversight process includes receiving reports from members of senior management on areas of material risk to the Company, including operational, financial, legal and regulatory, strategic, reputational, cybersecurity, environmental, social, governance and climate change risks.The full Board (or the appropriate committee in the case of risks that are under the purview of a particular committee) receives these reports from the appropriate “risk owner” within our organization or in connection with other management-prepared presentations of risk to enable the Board (or committee, as applicable) to understand our risk identification, risk management and risk mitigation strategies. By “risk owner,” we mean that person or group of persons who is or are primarily responsible for overseeing a particular risk. As part of its charter, the Audit Committee discusses our guidelines and policies with respect to which our management assesses and manages the Company’s exposure to risk and reports to the full Board its conclusions as a partial basis for further discussion by the full Board. This enables the Board and the applicable committees to coordinate the risk oversight role, particularly with respect to risk interrelationships. In addition to the Board’s review of risks applicable to the Company generally, the Board conducts regular strategic and personnel reviews.

See p. 18 of 2025 Proxy Statement issued April 7, 2026. 2-15 Conflicts of Interest Conflicts of interest should, wherever possible, be avoided. However, the Company recognizes that its corporate structure and business investments do not make it practicable or desirable to avoid all relationships that could give rise to conflicts of interest. Accordingly, conflicts of interest, potential conflicts of interest, or relationships which are identified as giving rise to potential conflicts of interest that are approved by, or at the direction of, the Board of Trustees or the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee or that have been previously disclosed in the Trust’s Annual Report on Form 10-K are permitted. Any material transaction or relationship that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest should be discussed with the appropriate Code of Ethics Contact Person if not previously approved by, or at the direction of, the Board of Trustees or the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee or previously disclosed in Vornado Realty Trust’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Vornado's compensation structure includes four pay elements: Annual Base Salary, Annual Incentive Award, long-term equity incentive which includes restricted units and long-term incentive performance awards, and development fee pool allocations. Vornado is committed to a compensation program based on a pay-for- performance philosophy and is designed to incentivize executives to achieve financial and strategic goals that are aligned with the Company's long-term business strategy and the creation of sustained, long-term value for our shareholders. The objectives of the program include Retain, Attract, Motivate, Emphasize, Align and Achieve pillars. The overall compensation levels and allocation among these components, excluding any development fee pool allocations, are determined annually by our Compensation Committee considering the Company’s performance during the year and a review of the competitive market for executive talent. Historically, most of the total compensation for our CEO has been in long-term equity awards. These longer-term, equity-based awards reflect the Compensation Committee’s desire to directly align management and shareholder interests and to provide incentives to successfully implement our long-term strategic objectives. The CEO’s compensation is tied to achieving goals set during the previous year’s Annual Institutional Investor Conference, ensuring deep involvement in such matters.

These initiatives support the implementation of energy efficiency measures, enhance tenant engagement on energy use, and strengthen internal capabilities to drive long-term energy performance improvements across the portfolio. Environmental GRI 302: Energy 2016 302-1 Energy consumption within the organization Energy Consumption (MWh) p. 27 of this report. We utilized the Thermal Energy Conversion factors from ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager Technical Reference Guide published by EPA. Our energy is converted to GJ using generic conversion factors. Our total energy reported within the organization is 38,979 GJ of chilled water, 487,058 GJ of district steam, 348,269 GJ of electricity, 445,754 GJ of natural gas and 18,993 GJ of fuels. The total energy within the organization is 1,339,053 GJ. The majority of Vornado’s heating consumption is from district steam sources, which are reported on p. 27. Vornado does not sell electricity, heating, cooling, or steam. All fuel consumption reported is non-renewable. 302-2 Energy consumption outside of the organization Energy Consumption (MWh) pp. 27 of this report. We utilized the Thermal Energy Conversion factors from ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager Technical Reference Guide published by EPA. Total energy outside the organization is 964,622 GJ. 302-3 Building energy intensity Intensity Measures pp. 24 of this report. Our denominator is the square footage as outlined in the boundaries found in the endnotes of this index. Building energy intensity reported includes all energy reported in 302-1 & 302-2 reported amounts. We utilized the latest available emission factors for each energy type and Global Warming Potential factors from the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) published by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and EPA ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager GHG Technical Reference to calculate our GHG inventory. No significant recalculations occurred. Consolidation approach as defined in the reporting boundary endnotes in this index. Biogenic emissions of CO2 that occur in the life cycle of biomass other than from combustion or biodegradation are not applicable. Disclosure Description Response 3-3 Management of material topics Our approach to management of materials topics is cyclical and begins with feedback from our stakeholders to inform our commitment and policies, implementation is established throughout the organization, results are assessed and communicated, and then management discusses each topic to determine forward strategy. While Vornado has not formally adopted the Precautionary Principle, we apply a precautionary approach in our operational planning or when introducing new products to our buildings. GHG emissions and indoor air pollutants are among many of the environmental risks that we seek to avoid and mitigate. All material topics are guided by standards set forth in Vornado’s policies; see Governance pp. 84 of this report and visit https://www.vno.com/sustainability/overview and scroll to “Policies” section. Impact: “Globally, the building sector contributes more than one-third (approximately 40%) of energy consumption and GHG emissions” (https://www.iea.org/energy-system/buildings). At Vornado, sustainability and resilience are important lenses through which we view all development projects at any scale. Our strategy focuses on sustainable development inclusive of carbon neutrality, operational efficiencies, human health, minimizing material resources, and climate change adaptation. We collaborate with our community partners, vendors, and our company’s stakeholders to support driving down our carbon footprint in the regions we operate. See Sustainability Governance pp. 10-11, Governance p. 84, Materiality Assessment pp. 90-91, Risk Management pp. 92-93. Resilience and Adaptation:  Our climate risk assessment informs the risk profiles of our properties and is a component of our Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) assessment during all stages of a building cycle. Understanding climate-related risks enables us to better assess potential acquisitions through the due diligence process, impacts within our (re)development efforts, and exposure of our operational assets.

In 2025, Vornado withdrew 1.29 million cubic meters of water from the NYC Water System. This water is state-operated and is 100% surface water drawn from the Delaware Aqueduct drawing from Catskill/Delaware and Croton Watersheds). Vornado's San Fran properties rely on water from the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission from the Hetch Hetchy Regional Water System. The water is drawn from local groundwater, purified water and local reservoirs in Alameda and San Mateo counties. In 2025, Vornado withdrew 57,763 cubic meters of water from the San Francisco Water System. Vornado's Chicago property relies on the Chicago Department of Water Management whose water system draws, treats, and distributes nearly 1 billion gallons of water daily from Lake Michigan. In 2025, Vornado withdrew 79,071 cubic meters of water from the Chicago Water System. Vornado analyzes water consumption for all buildings based on utility bills provided to each property, and on-site teams confirm correct water usage through daily on-site meter readings. 303-3 Water withdrawal Water Withdrawal p. 25, SASB Disclosure on Water Management pp. 60-61 of this report.

Sustainability Report 2025  115114  Sustainability Report 2025 *Reporting boundaries: Intensities: 2025 intensities were calculated by dividing the energy consumption, water consumption, and GHG emissions from the properties owned by Vornado at December 31, 2025 by the total square footage of that same list of properties. Energy and Water: We report all consolidated entities, and unconsolidated joint ventures where we influence operational control in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. Buildings not included are those under development as listed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. Q4 2025 energy and water data was estimated at properties where actual consumption data was not available in time for the publication of this report. Energy and water were estimated by applying the same month consumption from prior year. Approximately 2.09% of total energy consumption and 5.1% of total water consumption was estimated. Waste: Approximately 92% of all in-service square footage as of 12/31/2025, not listed as under development. Waste generation in 2024 and 2025 is represented by actual data from waste haulers. Excluded from waste data are properties where waste hauling is not directly managed by Vornado, such as high street retail and residential properties. Construction & Demolition waste is excluded from the reporting boundary as it is considered extraordinary waste, which is in line with industry standards. C&D for FY25 was 1,939 metric tons, of which 1,604 tons were recycled and 335 tons were landfilled. All C&D waste was non-hazardous.

Sustainability Report 2025  117116  Sustainability Report 2025 mathematical accuracy of computations, compared the disclosures to underlying records, or observed the data collection process.  The preparation of the disclosures in the GRI Content Index included within the accompanying Sustainability Report requires management to interpret the criteria, make determinations as to the relevancy of information to be included, and make estimates and assumptions that affect reported information. Measurement of certain disclosures may include estimates and assumptions that are subject to substantial inherent measurement uncertainty, including, for example, the accuracy and precision of GHG conversion factors, or estimation methodologies used by management. Obtaining sufficient, appropriate review evidence to support our conclusion does not reduce the inherent uncertainty in the disclosures. The selection by management of a different but acceptable measurement method, input data, or model assumptions, or a different point value within the range of reasonable values produced by the model, may have resulted in materially different disclosures being reported.  Our review was limited to the disclosures in the GRI Content Index as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. All other information presented within the Sustainability Report, including any recalculated information relating to periods prior to the year-ended December 31, 2025, information relating to forward looking statements, targets, goals, progress against goals, linked information, and denoted by an asterisk (*) of the Sustainability Report was not subject to our review and, accordingly, we do not express a conclusion or any form of assurance on such information.  Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the disclosures in the GRI Content Index in order for it to be presented in accordance with the GRI Standards.   Deloitte & Touche LLP 30 Rockefeller Plaza 41st Floor New York, NY 10112 USA Tel: +1 212 492 4000 Fax:+1 212 489 1687 www.deloitte.com WE HAVE REVIEWED MANAGEMENT of Vornado Realty Trust’s (the "Company") assertion that the disclosures in the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Content Index included within the accompanying Sustainability Report of Vornado Realty Trust as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Sustainability Report”) are presented in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative Sustainability Reporting Standards (the “GRI Standards”). The Company’s management is responsible for its assertion. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the disclosures in the GRI Content Index based on our review.  Our review was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) in AT-C Section 105, Concepts Common to All Attestation Engagements, and AT-C Section 210, Review Engagements. Those standards require that we plan and perform the review to obtain limited assurance about whether any material modifications should be made to the disclosures in the GRI Content Index in order for it to be presented in accordance with the criteria. The procedures performed in a review vary in nature and timing from, and are substantially less in extent than, an examination, the objective of which is to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the disclosures in the GRI Content Index are presented in accordance with the criteria, in all material respects, in order to express an opinion. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Because of the limited nature of the engagement, the level of assurance obtained in a review is substantially lower than the assurance that would have been obtained had an examination been performed. We believe that the review evidence obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis for our conclusion.  We are required to be independent and to meet our other ethical requirements in accordance with relevant ethical requirements in accordance with the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct. We applied the Statements on Quality Control Standards established by the AICPA and, accordingly, maintain a comprehensive system of quality control.  The procedures we performed were based on our professional judgment. In performing our review, we performed analytical procedures, inquiries, and other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.

Management is responsible for the collection, quantification, and presentation of the metrics and for the selection of the criteria, which management believes provide an objective basis for measuring and reporting on the metrics. Measurement of certain metrics may include estimates and assumptions that are subject to substantial inherent measurement uncertainty, including, for example, the accuracy and precision of conversion factors or estimation methodologies used by management. The selection by management of a different but acceptable measurement method, input data, or model assumptions, or a different point value within the range of reasonable values produced by model, may have resulted in materially different metrics being reported. Management asserts that the metrics in the SASB Index included within the accompanying Sustainability Report of Vornado Realty Trust as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, are presented in accordance with the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Real Estate Sustainability Accounting Standard. The number of assets includes the number of distinct building assets. In the SASB disclosures, each asset is counted as a single asset, even in cases where portions of an asset are classified into separate subsectors that are aligned with the FTSE NAREIT Classification Structure. The SASB disclosure instead categorizes assets into the four categories of “New York,” “THE MART,” “555 California,” and “Other,” which aligns with the entity’s financial reporting.

Leasable floor area is reported in square feet, which is consistent with our financial reporting, and is a more relevant unit measure to users of this report. 3 The definition of “indirectly managed assets” is solely based on the landlord/tenant relationship and is aligned with the 2025 GRESB Real Estate Assessment Reference Guide: “In the past, GRESB used to classify assets as Managed or Indirectly Managed,” based on, “Where a single tenant has the sole authority to introduce and implement operating and/or environmental policies and measures, the tenant should be assumed to have operational control, the asset should be considered to be an Indirectly Managed Asset.” In 2020, this concept was replaced by “Landlord Controlled” and “Tenant Controlled” areas, where the same notion of operational control applies to differentiate one from the other. However, while the rationale remains unchanged compared to previous years, if both the landlord and tenant have the authority to introduce and implement any or all of the policies mentioned above, the area should be reported as landlord controlled. Percentage of indirectly managed assets shall be disclosed separately into the four categories of “New York,” “THE MART,” “555 California,” and “Other,” which aligns with the entity’s financial reporting. 4 Average occupancy rate is an average of the reported occupancy for each of the four quarters in the reporting period and is disclosed separately for each portion of the entity’s portfolio into the four categories of “New York,” “THE MART,” “555 California,” and “Other,” which aligns with the entity’s financial reporting.

Sustainability Report 2025  123122  Sustainability Report 2025 Management of Tenant Sustainability Impacts At Vornado, tenants consume the majority of electricity consumed in our properties, as is evidenced by the submetered or separately metered electricity we record throughout our portfolio. Because so much of our energy consumption is under tenant control, it is essential to engage with the tenants as a partner in reducing our carbon footprint. There is clear value to be realized in communicating to and working with our tenants on their energy and water consumption and to encourage their participation in best practices in resource conservation. We memorialized our commitment to green lease initiatives through our Platinum level certification by the Green Lease Leaders initiative developed by the Institute for Market Transformation (IMT) with support from the U.S. Department of Energy. Our standard lease agreement includes several components that encourage tenant energy conservation. Across our office portfolio, we require submetered or separately metered electricity consumption for all tenants over 5,000 square feet and promote submeters in smaller spaces. We also require submetered or separately metered water consumption for all tenants whose predicted use is expected to exceed normal business practice. The submetered arrangement enables Vornado to share energy and water consumption with our tenants monthly, at a minimum, through the generation of the submeter bill. Tenants are billed transparently based on their actual and exclusive consumption as recorded on the submeter. Included on the submeter bill are Vornado’s energy reduction targets and links to Vornado’s corporate sustainability page, where our broader strategy on energy and water management is found. Elsewhere in the lease, we include a clause to recover capital costs that reduce operating expenses — whether utility costs or another cost reduction benefit — and we may amortize that recovery over the useful life of the project. We have been steadily increasing new and amended leases to include this clause. In 2025, leases containing a cost recovery clause for energy efficiency improvements are 88.14% of new and amended leases signed during the year. The percentage of our in-service office new leases containing a cost recovery clause for energy efficiency improvements is higher than retail leases. Where there is an economic or environmental benefit, our company will prioritize sustainability requirements in a tenant fit-out. Our revised tenant high-performance fit-out guidelines include enhanced requirements for energy-efficient lighting and controls, HVAC equipment, and water efficient plumbing fixtures. These and other high-performance design requirements are also included in our rules and regulations, which are also referenced in the lease. We believe that our lease fosters a sustainably designed tenant space and an ongoing environment that encourages tenants to actively manage and measure their own consumption and carbon footprint. Beyond the lease, we distinguish ourselves with one-on-one, group, in-person, and virtual engagement with our tenants on sustainability. In 2025, we hosted four in-person sustainability roundtables in all our major regions of operations. Other in-person and virtual town halls concentrated on waste diversion and recycling. During these roundtables, we discuss broader corporate sustainability trends and regulatory updates, in addition to best practices and introduced our tenants to our sustainability vendors who provide support services across our portfolio, supporting our targets. We collect information from our tenants that contributes to mandatory energy rating schemes, such as the ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager profiles we submit for compliance with local laws in New York, New Jersey, San Francisco, and Chicago. We encourage tenants to consider ENERGY STAR Tenant Space recognition and leverage ENERGY STAR Treasure Hunt programs to identify low- and no-cost measures to reduce consumption. Every tenant has access to our Energy Information portal with interval data for their submetered accounts. We meet with tenants on-site to survey opportunities to save energy and water. We train our tenants on recycling programs. We host energy and waste reduction competitions with tenants to promote awareness and foster their participation. Our tenants have also expressed support for renewable energy procurement, which we completed on their behalf in New York, San Francisco, and Chicago properties where tenants are submetered and Vornado has purchased Renewable Energy Certificates. Vornado is committed to providing a comfortable, efficient, and technologically advanced work environment for each of our tenants, constantly striving to add value for our tenants through responsive service and programs. To that end, Vornado developed an app (LIVE. WORK. DO.) for all our tenants that allows building access, announces building events and information, and provides benefits and promotions to tenants. The Sustainability section of the app and tenant portal provide guidance to our tenants about sustainability initiatives in each building. The Sustainability section of the app explains to the user our goals, our progress toward our sustainability goals, and links to more information, as well as detailed guidance on how to become more involved in Vornado’s sustainability programming, including ENERGY STAR. We provide contact information, updated information on ENERGY STAR scores, organics collection, energy- saving tips, and upcoming events, like Climate Week, for participation and engagement. Our app usage continues to increase with the ability to enter buildings using the functionality provided. This, in turn, has increased engagement with our tenants who now know where to look for information on events, initiatives, and contacts. We also publicize our events, challenges, and initiatives through the Captivate elevator screens in each building. We hold ourselves accountable and measure the success of our engagement. Success is measured in the observed reduction of energy from submetered tenant spaces, the integration of organics throughout our portfolio, the waste diversion rate, and the square footage of space that our team reaches through our engagement programs.

Sustainability Report 2025  125124  Sustainability Report 2025 All carbon emission reduction strategies, whether property specific, regional, or portfolio-wide, present different risks and opportunities. Risks include unsuccessful investment in new technologies; costs to transition to lower emissions solutions; achievement of regional utilities’ decarbonization; increased pricing on GHG emissions; reputational loss; and uncertainty in market signals, such as utility costs or carbon taxes. Financial impacts of such risks could include increased capital and operating costs, increased or unexpected shifts in energy costs, and decreased asset value. Opportunities, on the other hand, include reduction of energy and resource consumption; use of public-sector incentives, such as utility rebates and demand response revenue; diversification of renewable energy sources, including renewables; adaptation of new technologies; and access to new capital. Financial impacts of such opportunities include reduction of energy and/or operating costs; favorable ROI analysis; increased value of fixed assets; reduced exposure to fossil fuel price increases; reduction of utility costs for our tenants; various benefits to workforce management and planning; lower cost of capital; and ability to take advantage of incentive, rebate, and tax incentive programs. Additional opportunities also include the reduction or elimination of burden from emerging carbon pricing or carbon tax mechanisms, as well as the reduction or avoidance of carbon-emissions-related penalties. All three of our regions also have emissions-reporting obligations, which require us to publicly disclose our properties’ carbon emissions via ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager. We consider this requirement as an opportunity to measure the carbon emissions from our properties and manage the reduction of those emissions on an ongoing basis. These programs combine strategies of absolute energy reduction, through efficiency mandates, as well as fossil fuel intensity reduction of utility-delivered energy. We discuss the intent and requirements of these programs with our property managers and engineers, as well as our tenants. They provide an important framework to the GHG reduction goals we set with our properties. In 2019, New York City passed the Climate Mobilization Act (CMA), which contained several local laws to transition New York City to reduce GHG emissions 40% by the year 2030 and 80% by the year 2050, below 2005 levels. Included in the CMA was Local Law 97, which calculates carbon intensity for buildings on a per-square-foot basis and assigns limits to intensity beginning in 2024, with reporting in 2025. We submitted our properties and all Vornado-managed properties complied with the 2024 limits. The law further assigns penalties of $268 per ton of carbon calculated in exceedance of the limits. We are planning energy efficiency strategies to avoid penalties at our NYC properties and consider the cost for energy efficiency to be part of our transition costs to a low-carbon environment. We also consider penalty avoidance in the value stack of energy efficiency projects and the penalty amount of $268 per ton of carbon to be considered when making capital allocation decisions. Vornado Realty Trust has signed on as a supporter of the framework recommended by the Financial Stability Board’s Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). We believe this framework will guide the real estate industry toward well- informed disclosure of climate change risks and opportunities. As our internal and external discussions on climate risk and disclosure evolve, we plan to provide expanded public disclosure consistent with regulatory requirements. Climate Change Adaptation Code Activity Metric Total New York THE MART 555 California Other Unit of Measure IF-RE-450a.1 Area of properties located in 100-year flood zones, by property subsector. 173,000 173,000 0 0 0 Square Feet IF-RE-450a.2 Description of climate change risk exposure analysis, degree of systematic portfolio exposure, and strategies for mitigating risks. We identify and assess our exposure to climate change risk on a “low-carbon economy” (LCE) scenario based on the October 2018 Special Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 2.6 and a “high- carbon economy” (HCE) based on RCP 8.5. We find these scenarios to be relevant to our properties for two reasons. The first is that they provide potential future status on the physical risks each scenario presents between the present time and beyond 2040. The second is that they provide a shorter-term view of transitional risks related to climate-related policy change that our properties could be subject to. Each of our principal markets of New York, Chicago, and San Francisco has existing or pending legislation that would limit carbon emissions to align with a 1.5°C scenario. We consider the costs for compliance with such legislation to be a financial impact attributable to the transition to a lower-carbon environment. The risks and opportunities for Vornado do not differ substantially across subsectors and regions, and our approach described below takes the risks and opportunities in each subsector and region into consideration. Our buildings are located in regions that have a recent history of physical risks, such as extreme weather events, including but not limited to hurricanes and superstorms, nor’easters and ice storms, tornadoes, wildfires, temperature extremes, and heavy precipitation events. Under the business-as-usual scenario, there may be an increase in the frequency and severity of these events between now and beyond 2040. Such events may impact our buildings individually, depending on a building’s specific use, design, and location characteristics, or regionally, depending on the magnitude of the event. We are also aware that while less than 5% of our property square footage is in areas designated as flood zones by FEMA, our coastal locations are susceptible to sea level rise (SLR). Various global warming scenarios could bring about differing amounts of SLR between now and the year 2100. Financial impacts under various warming scenarios include, but are not limited to, increases in capital and operating costs, increases in insurance premiums, increases in energy costs, and increases in overall utility costs. Our properties are located in urban areas, which means the vitality of our properties is reliant on sound transportation and utility infrastructure. If that infrastructure is compromised in any way by an extreme weather event, such a compromise could have an adverse impact on our local economies and populations, as well as on our tenants’ ability to do business in our buildings. This risk is not unique to Vornado but is endemic to our regions. Our strategies for mitigating physical risks require a combination of adaptive and preventative measures with a proactive reduction of carbon emissions. Adaptive and preventative measures are executed at both the property level and regional level. We adapt our properties to be resilient against the impact of climate change, with details of our resilience measures found in the Resilience and Adaptation section of this report. We train our operators in disaster risk management and emergency operating procedures. At the regional level, our cities and utilities adapt by creating programs that improve resilience against climate-related impacts. Examples of such programs include New York City’s AdaptNYC plan and Consolidated Edison’s Storm Hardening Protection Plan in New York; Resilient Chicago and Commonwealth Edison’s Resilient Electric Grid system in Chicago; and Resilient SF and PG&E’s Company Emergency Response Plan in San Francisco. We have disclosed our Scope 3 carbon emissions that are attributed to certain fuel and energy-related activities that are not included in Scope 1 or 2. These emissions are from energy that is submetered or delivered directly from the utilities to our tenants and consumed by our tenants. We plan to expand our inventory of Scope 3 emissions to include additional categories relevant to our business and required by legislation. ¹Any information relating to forward-looking statements, goals and progress against goals, was not subject to Deloitte & Touche LLP’s examination and, accordingly, Deloitte & Touche LLP does not express a conclusion or any form of assurance on such information. Normalization Note: In 2024 and 2025 like-for-like energy consumption data has been normalized to adjust for fluctuations in weather and occupancy, while water consumption data has been normalized to adjust for fluctuations in occupancy only. Weather normalization uses inputs of total degree days (TDD), a fixed portion of energy consumption, known as a Base Load, and a variable portion of energy consumption, known as a Seasonal Load. Occupancy is normalized based on the following methodology: 1) An Occupancy Normalization Adjustment was calculated as most of Vornado’s large commercial office buildings have ingested full-year physical occupancy counts in both 2024 and 2025. Therefore, we are using the portfolio’s average monthly physical occupancy percentage changes on an annual basis year over year to normalize occupancy and applying that methodology to the buildings that do not have occupancy sensors. For buildings with sensors, their building-specific occupancy percentage change will be applied. For buildings that management knows did not have aligned occupancy changes, a note will be added and the occupancy normalization calculation will not be applied. 2) Weather Normalized Energy’s Seasonal Load is subject to Occupancy Normalization Adjustment based on field research that demonstrates that a third of the seasonal load is occupancy dependent.

The Company’s management is responsible for its assertion. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the metrics in the SASB Index based on our examination. Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) in AT-C Section 105, Concepts Common to All Attestation Engagements, and AT-C Section 205, Assertion-Based Examination Engagements. Those standards require that we plan and perform the examination to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the metrics in the SASB Index are presented in accordance with the criteria, in all material respects. An examination involves performing procedures to obtain evidence about the metrics in the SASB Index. The nature, timing, and extent of the procedures selected depend on our judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the metrics in the SASB Index, whether due to fraud or error. We believe that the evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. We are required to be independent and to meet our other ethical requirements in accordance with relevant ethical requirements in accordance with the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct. We applied the Statements on Quality Control Standards established by the AICPA and, accordingly, maintain a comprehensive system of quality control. The preparation of the metrics in the SASB Index included within the accompanying Sustainability Report requires management to interpret the criteria, make determinations as to the relevancy of information to be included, and make estimates and assumptions that affect reported information. Measurement of certain metrics may include estimates and assumptions that are subject to substantial inherent measurement uncertainty, including, for example, the accuracy and precision of conversion factors or estimation methodologies used by management. Obtaining sufficient, appropriate evidence to support our opinion does not reduce the inherent uncertainty in the metrics. The selection by management of a different but acceptable measurement method, input data, or model assumptions, or a different point value within the range of reasonable values produced by the model, may have resulted in materially different metrics being reported. Our examination was limited to the metrics in the SASB Index as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. All other information presented within the Sustainability Report, including any recalculated information relating to periods prior to the year- ended December 31, 2025, information relating to forward looking statements, goals, progress against goals, linked information, and denoted by an asterisk (*) of the Sustainability Report was not subject to our examination and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance on such information.

The Company’s management is responsible for its assertion. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Scope 1 GHG emissions, Scope 2 GHG emissions, and GHG emissions intensity, each under the financial control method, on page 47 based on our review.  Our review was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) in AT-C Section 105, Concepts Common to All Attestation Engagements, and AT-C Section 210, Review Engagements. Those standards require that we plan and perform the review to obtain limited assurance about whether any material modifications should be made to the Scope 1 GHG emissions, Scope 2 GHG emissions, and GHG emissions intensity, each under the financial control method, on page 47 in order for it to be presented in accordance with the criteria. The procedures performed in a review vary in nature and timing from, and are substantially less in extent than, an examination, the objective of which is to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Scope 1 GHG emissions, Scope 2 GHG emissions, and GHG emissions intensity, each under the financial control method, on page 47 are presented in accordance with the criteria, in all material respects, in order to express an opinion. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Because of the limited nature of the engagement, the level of assurance obtained in a review is substantially lower than the assurance that would have been obtained had an examination been performed. We believe that the review evidence obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis for our conclusion.  We are required to be independent and to meet our other ethical requirements in accordance with relevant ethical requirements in accordance with the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct. We applied the Statements on Quality Control Standards established by the AICPA and, accordingly, maintain a comprehensive system of quality control.  The procedures we performed were based on our professional judgment. In performing our review, we performed analytical procedures, inquiries, and other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. For a selection of the Scope 1 GHG emissions, Scope 2 GHG emissions, and GHG emissions intensity, each under the financial control method, on page 47, we performed tests of mathematical accuracy of computations, compared the disclosures to underlying records, or observed the data collection process.  The preparation of the Scope 1 GHG emissions, Scope 2 GHG emissions, and GHG emissions intensity, each under the financial control method, on page 47 included within the accompanying Sustainability Report requires management to interpret the criteria, make determinations as to the relevancy of information to be included, and make estimates and assumptions that affect reported information. Measurement of certain disclosures may include estimates and assumptions that are subject to substantial inherent measurement uncertainty, including, for example, the accuracy and precision of GHG conversion factors, or estimation methodologies used by management. Obtaining sufficient, appropriate review evidence to support our conclusion does not reduce the inherent uncertainty in the disclosures. The selection by management of a different but acceptable measurement method, input data, or model assumptions, or a different point value within the range of reasonable values produced by the model, may have resulted in materially different disclosures being reported.  Our review was limited to the Scope 1 GHG emissions, Scope 2 GHG emissions, and GHG emissions intensity, each under the financial control method, on page 47 as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. All other information presented within the Sustainability Report, including information relating to forward looking statements, targets, goals, progress against goals, linked information, and denoted by an asterisk (*) of the Sustainability Report was not subject to our review and, accordingly, we do not express a conclusion or any form of assurance on such information.  Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the Scope 1 GHG emissions, Scope 2 GHG emissions, and GHG emissions intensity, each under the financial control method, on page 47 in order for it to be presented in accordance with the GRI 305 Standards.  Independent Accountant's Report Board of Trustees Vornado Realty Trust Independent Accountant's Report Board of Trustees Vornado Realty Trust Appendix APRIL 7, 2026 APRIL 7, 2026
