ITEM 8.01.

Other Events.

On January 10, 2022, a committee of the Board of Directors (“Board”) of SL Green Realty Corp. (“SLG”) calculated both the final distributions of cash and stock as a result of stockholders elections for the previously-announced dividend of SLG’s common stock, as well the ratio for the previously-announced reverse stock split of SLG’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock as 1.03060-for-1.

As a result of the elections stockholders were entitled to make in connection with the dividend announced on December 2, 2021 with respect to cash or stock (including deemed elections), the cash option was oversubscribed and will be prorated. As a result, stockholders who elected to receive cash will receive, for each share of common stock they owned as of the Record Date, approximately $0.3976 in cash and 0.0295 shares of common stock. Stockholders who elected to receive shares will receive, for each share of common stock they owned as of the Record Date, approximately 0.0345 shares of common stock. The number of shares to be issued was calculated based on the volume weighted average trading price (“VWAP”) of SLG’s common stock between January 5-7, 2022, or $79.7058 per share.

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the dividend. Stockholders who would otherwise hold a fraction of a share will receive a cash payment in lieu thereof at a price based upon the fractional position multiplied by the VWAP.

The reverse stock split will become effective after markets close on January 21, 2022. SLG’s common stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis on the New York Stock Exchange as of the opening of trading on January 24, 2022, under SLG’s existing symbol “SLG.” SLG’s common stock has been assigned a new CUSIP number of 78440X887 in connection with the reverse stock split.

Immediately after the reverse stock split becomes effective, every 1.03060 shares of SLG’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock will be combined into one share, and the par value per share will remain at $0.01. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Shareholders who would otherwise hold a fraction of a share will receive a cash payment in lieu thereof at a price based upon prevailing market prices on or about January 21, 2022.

After the issuance of the dividend and the completion of the reverse stock split, the number of shares of SLG’s common stock outstanding is expected to be the same as the number of total shares outstanding on the Record Date (not including any issuances or repurchases that may occur following the Record Date, as well as any fractional shares that would have been issued in the Ordinary January Dividend but for which cash-in-lieu was paid). However, on a relative basis, some individual shareholders may have more shares of SLG’s common stock, and some individual shareholders may have fewer shares of SLG’s common stock, depending on their individual elections to receive cash or stock and as a result of the cash option being oversubscribed.

SLG’s transfer agent, Computershare Inc. (“Computershare”), will act as SLG’s exchange agent for the reverse stock split. Computershare will manage the exchange of pre-split shares for post-split shares. Shareholders of record as of the close of business on the Record Date will receive a letter of transmittal providing instructions for the exchange of their shares. Brokers, banks and other nominees will be instructed to effect the reverse stock split for their beneficial holders who hold shares of SLG’s common stock in street name. However, these brokers, banks and other nominees may have different procedures for processing the reverse stock split and for making payment for fractional shares than those procedures that apply to registered shareholders. Shareholders who hold shares of SLG’s common stock with a broker, bank or other nominee and who have any questions in this regard are encouraged to contact their brokers, banks or other nominees. For further information, shareholders and securities brokers should contact Computershare by telephone at 1-866-230-9138.
