Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Twenty-Eighth Amendment to the First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of SL Green Operating Partnership, L.P.

 

On December 20, 2021, SL Green Realty Corp. (the “Company”), as the general partner of SL Green Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), entered into a twenty-eighth amendment (the “Twenty-Eighth Amendment”) to the Operating Partnership’s First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated August 20, 1997 (as amended through the date hereof, the “Partnership Agreement”), providing the Operating Partnership the ability to make a tax election described in New York Tax Law Section 861 with respect to 2021 and any subsequent taxable year of the Operating Partnership and to pay, on behalf of each of its eligible partners, tax imposed by New York Tax Law Section 862 and any estimates thereof, which is intended to allow each eligible partner to receive its applicable credit against its New York tax obligations and to be allocated a corresponding deduction for U.S. federal income tax purposes by the Operating Partnership. The Twenty-Eighth Amendment further provides that the Operating Partnership shall have the authority, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Twenty-Eighth Amendment, to withhold cash amounts otherwise due to each partner under the Operating Partnership up to the amount of New York taxes that the Operating Partnership has paid on such partner’s behalf (the “PTET Deficit”). As further described in the Twenty-Eighth Amendment, if any partner has a PTET Deficit in excess of $1 million, then such partner will be required, upon written request from the Company, to repay the amount of such PTET Deficit as indicated by the Company in such written request and to grant a security interest over such partner’s limited partnership units to secure such repayment obligation.

 

The foregoing description of the Twenty-Eighth Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Twenty-Eighth Amendment, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
