1. Restructuring of Retail Loan at 731 Lexington Avenue

Alexander’s, Inc. completed a major restructuring of the $300 million mortgage loan on its retail condominium at 731 Lexington Avenue in Manhattan. The transaction split the existing loan into a $132.5 million senior “A-Note” carrying a fixed 7.00% annual interest rate and a $167.5 million junior “C-Note” at 4.55% per annum, extending the maturity to December 23, 2035. At closing, an affiliate of Alexander’s acquired the A-Note at par and simultaneously entered into a new “B-Note” for capital and re-leasing expenses, which accrues interest at 13.5% per annum—except for balances above $65 million used to service the A-Note, which carry a 7.00% rate. The deal strengthens Alexander’s liquidity profile while aligning financing costs with projected cash flow from retail tenants in its five-property New York City portfolio.
