SL Green Sells 40 Percent Interest in Class-A Midtown South Office

Property

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–

SL Green Realty Corp. (NYSE:SLG), New York City’s largest office

landlord, today announced that it has sold a 40% interest in Eleven

Madison Avenue, to PGIM Real Estate, the real estate investment business

of PGIM, Inc., the global investment management businesses of Prudential

Financial, Inc. (NYSE: PRU). The transaction values the 2.3

million-square-foot, Class-A Midtown South office property at $2.6

billion, inclusive of the costs associated with lease stipulated

improvements to the property.

SL Green realized cash proceeds of approximately $480 million at

closing, which will be used for debt reduction and other investment

opportunities. The partnership is seeking a modification to the mortgage

on the property, which, if not obtained within six months after the

closing, may result in SL Green repurchasing the sold interest from PGIM

Real Estate. The partnership expects the modification to be granted

during the fourth quarter of 2016.

PGIM Real Estate has a one-year option to acquire an additional 9% stake

in the venture at the same gross property valuation of $2.6 billion.

SL Green’s co-Chief Investment Officer, Isaac Zion, commented, “PGIM

Real Estate shares our vision for Eleven Madison Avenue, a truly premier

asset, and we are delighted to continue our long-standing, mutually

beneficial relationship with this latest venture together.”

“PGIM Real Estate’s investment in Eleven Madison Avenue represents a

unique opportunity to partner with SL Green again and add to our

portfolio another trophy-quality office property in Manhattan that will

generate secure and stable income across market cycles,” said Kevin R.

Smith, head of Americas for PGIM Real Estate.

Eleven Madison Avenue is located directly east of Madison Square Park

between 24th and 25th Streets, and spans one full city block, with park

frontage offering unobstructed west-facing views. The well-located

office building has access to public transportation, including walking

distance to five major subway lines, while the Madison Square Park area

offers an abundance of walkable dining, retail, hotel and residential

options.

Darcy Stacom and William Shanahan of CBRE advised SL Green on this

transaction.
