Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note A Interim Period Reporting

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of 60 East 42^nd St. Associates L.L.C. (“Registrant”) reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position of Registrant as of June 30, 2011 and its results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. Information included in the condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 has been derived from the audited balance sheet included in Registrant’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 (the “10-K”) previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted from these financial statements unless significant changes have taken place since the end of the most recent fiscal year. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto and the other information contained in the 10-K. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any interim period or the full year.

Reclassification

Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.

Note B Organization

Registrant was originally organized as a partnership on September 25, 1958. On October 1, 1958, Registrant acquired fee title to One Grand Central Place, formerly known as the Lincoln Building, at the address 60 East 42nd Street, New York, New York (the “Building”) and the land there under (the “Property”). On November 28, 2001, Registrant converted to a limited liability company under New York law and is now known as 60 East 42nd St. Associates L.L.C. The conversion did not change any aspect of the assets and operations of Registrant other than to protect its participants from liability to third parties. Registrant’s members (“Members”) are Peter L. Malkin and Anthony E. Malkin (collectively, the “Agents”), each of whom also acts as an agent for holders of participations (“Participations”) in their respective member interest in Registrant (the “Participants”). The Members in Registrant hold senior positions at Malkin Holdings LLC (“Malkin Holdings” or “Supervisor”) (formerly Wien & Malkin LLC), One Grand Central Place, 60 East 42nd Street, New York, New York, which provides supervisory and other services to Registrant and to Lessee. See Note E below.

Note C Lease

Registrant does not operate the Property. Registrant leases the Property to Lincoln Building Associates L.L.C. (“Lessee”) pursuant to an operating lease as modified (the “Lease”), which is currently set to expire on September 30, 2033. Lessee is a New York limited liability company whose members consist of, among others, entities for the benefit of members of Peter L. Malkin’s family.

The Lease provides that Lessee is required to pay rent to Registrant as follows:

(i) annual basic rent (“Basic Rent”) equal to the sum of $24,000 plus the constant annual mortgage charges on all mortgages. In accordance with the Ninth Lease Modification Agreement dated November 5, 2009, Basic Rent was increased to cover debt service on a $100,000,000 mortgage. See Note D. Basic Rent will be increased or decreased upon the refinancing of the mortgages provided that the aggregate principal balance of all mortgages now or hereafter placed on the Property does not exceed $100,000,000 plus refinancing costs.

(ii) additional rent (“Additional Rent”) equal to, on an annual basis, the lesser of (x) Lessee’s net operating income (as defined) for the lease year ending September 30 or (y) $1,053,800 ($87,817 per month) and further additional rent (“Further Additional Rent”) equal to 50% of any remaining balance of Lessee’s net operating income for such lease year. (Lessee has no obligation to make any payment of Additional Rent or Further Additional Rent until after Lessee has recouped any cumulative operating loss accruing from and after September 30, 1977. There is currently no accumulated operating loss against which to offset payment of Additional Rent or Further Additional Rent.)

The Lease also requires an advance against Additional Rent equal to, on an annual basis, the lesser of (x) Lessee’s net operating income for the preceding lease year or (y) $1,053,800 which is recorded in revenue in monthly installments of $87,817, which, in the latter amount, will permit basic distributions to Participants at an annual rate of approximately 14.95% per annum on their remaining cash investment in Registrant; provided, however, if such advances exceed Lessee’s net operating income for any lease year, advances otherwise required during the subsequent lease year shall be reduced by an amount equal to such excess until Lessee shall have recovered, through retention of net operating income, the full amount of such excess. After the Participants have received distributions equal to a return of 14% per annum, $7,380 is paid to Supervisor from the advances against Additional Rent.

Lessee is required to make an annual payment to Registrant of Further Additional Rent, which, as explained above, is the amount representing 50% of the remaining net operating income reported by Lessee for the lease year ending September 30th after deducting the advance against Additional Rent. The Lease requires that the report be delivered by Lessee to Registrant annually within 60 days after the end of each such lease year. Since it is not practicable to estimate Further Additional Rent for the lease year ending on September 30^th which would be allocable to the first nine months of the lease year until Lessee, pursuant to the Lease, renders to Registrant a report on the operation of the Property. Registrant recognizes Further Additional Rent when earned from the Lessee at the close of the lease year ending September 30^th and records such amount in revenue during the three months ended September 30th.

For the lease year ended September 30, 2010, Lessee reported net operating income of $1,164,498. Lessee paid advances against Additional Rent of $1,053,800 for that lease year prior to September 30, 2010 and Further Additional Rent of $55,347 subsequent to September 30, 2010. The Further Additional Rent of $55,347 represents 50% of the excess of the Lessee’s net operating income of $1,164,498 over $1,053,800. During November 2010 Registrant did not make any additional distribution of Further Additional Rent received for the lease year ending September 30, 2010 to Participants but added to the contingency reserves of Registrant.

Note D Mortgages Payable

On November 29, 2004, a new first mortgage (“Mortgage”) was placed on the Property in the amount of $84,000,000 with Prudential Insurance Company of America to provide financing for the improvement program described below. At closing, $49,000,000 was drawn to pay off the former first mortgage with Morgan Guaranty Trust Company in the amount of $12,020,814 and the second mortgage in the amount of $27,979,186 with Emigrant Savings Bank. The remaining $35,000,000 available under the Mortgage was drawn on various dates through July 5, 2007. The proceeds of $49,000,000 drawn at closing and all subsequent draws have been used to pay for refinancing costs and capital improvements as needed. The initial draw of $49,000,000 and all subsequent draws required constant equal monthly payments of interest only, at the rate of 5.34% per annum, until July 5, 2007. Commencing August 5, 2007, Registrant is required to make equal monthly payments of $507,838 applied to interest and then principal calculated on a 25-year amortization schedule. The entire $84,000,000 has been drawn and at June 30, 2011 the balance is $77,010,194. The Mortgage matures on November 5, 2014 at which time the principal balance will be $69,797,589.

On November 5, 2009 Registrant took out an additional $16,000,000 loan with Prudential Insurance Company of America secured by a second mortgage on the Property, subordinate to the first mortgage and to be used for capital improvements. The loan requires payments of interest at 7% per annum and principal in the aggregate amount of $113,085 calculated on a twenty-five year amortization schedule and is co-terminus with the first mortgage. At June 30, 2011, the balance is $15,604,356. The mortgage matures on November 5, 2014 with a principal balance of $14,613,782.

The mortgage loans may be prepaid at any time, in whole only, upon payment of a prepayment penalty based on a yield maintenance formula. There is no prepayment penalty if the mortgages are paid in full during the last 60 days of the term.

The estimated fair value of Registrant’s mortgage debt based on available market information is approximately $97,019,193 as of June 30, 2011.

Mortgage financing costs of $2,873,632 were capitalized by Registrant and are being amortized ratably over the terms of the mortgages.

In 1999, the Participants of Registrant and the members in Lessee consented to a building improvements program (the “Program”) estimated to cost approximately $22,800,000. In 2000, the Participants of Registrant and members in Lessee approved an increase in the Program from $22,800,000 to approximately $28,000,000 under substantially the same conditions as had previously been approved. To induce the Lessee to approve the Program, Registrant authorized the Agents to grant to the Lessee, upon completion of the Program, the right to further extensions of the Lease to 2083. The Program was further increased in 2004 to up to $100,000,000. Such increase is expected to permit extending the Lease beyond 2083, based on the net present benefit to Registrant of the improvements made. The granting of such Lease extension rights upon completion of the Program is expected to trigger a New York State Transfer Tax under current tax rules, which will be paid from mortgage proceeds and/or the Lessee’s operating cash flow. As of June 30, 2011, Registrant had incurred costs related to the Program of $73,394,966 and estimates that the Program upon completion will be approximately $100,000,000 including sprinkler work, required to be completed by 2019. The Participants of Registrant and the members in Lessee had approved increased refinancing of $16,000,000 from the total of $84,000,000 provided by the Mortgage to up to $100,000,000. As noted above, the additional $16,000,000 financing closed on November 5, 2009. Costs of the Program in excess of financing, if applicable, will be funded out of Lessee’s operating cash flow.

Note E Supervisory Services

Registrant pays Supervisor for supervisory services and disbursements. The basic fee has been payable at the rate of $24,000 per annum, payable $2,000 per month, since October 1, 1958. The Agents approved an increase in such fee in an amount equal to the increase in the consumer price index since such date, resulting in an increase in the basic fee to $180,000 per annum effective July 1, 2010. The basic fee will be subject to further increase in accordance with any future increase in the consumer price index. The fee is payable (i) not less than $2,000 per month and (ii) the balance out of available reserves from Further Additional Rent. If Further Additional Rent is insufficient to pay such balance, any deficiency shall be payable in the next year in which Further Additional Rent is sufficient. In addition, the Agents also approved payment by Registrant, effective July 1, 2010, of the expenses in connection with regular accounting services related to maintenance of Registrant’s books and records. Such expenses were previously paid by Supervisor.

The basic supervisory services provided to Registrant by Supervisor include, but are not limited to, maintaining all of its entity and Participant records, performing physical inspections of the Building, providing or coordinating certain counsel services to Registrant, reviewing insurance coverage and conducting annual supervisory review meetings, receipt of monthly rent from Lessee, payment of monthly and additional distributions to the Participants, payment of all other disbursements, confirmation of the payment of real estate taxes, active review of financial statements submitted to Registrant by Lessee and financial statements audited by and tax information prepared by Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm, and distribution of related materials to the Participants. Supervisor also prepares quarterly, annual and other periodic filings with the SEC and applicable state authorities.

Registrant pays Supervisor for other services at hourly rates. Pursuant to the fee arrangements described herein, Registrant incurred supervisory service fees of $93,690 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2011. Supervisory fees were $15,690 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010. No remuneration was paid during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 by Registrant to any of the Members.

Supervisor also receives a payment (“Additional Payment”) equal to 10% of all distributions to Participants in Registrant in any year in excess of the amount representing a return to them at the rate of 14% per annum on their remaining cash investment in Registrant (which remaining cash investment at June 30, 2011 was equal to the Participants’ original cash investment of $7,000,000). For tax purposes, such Additional Payment is recognized as a profits interest, and the Supervisor is treated as a partner, all without modifying each Participant’s distributive share of reportable income and cash distribution. Supervisor receives $7,380 a year as an advance against the Additional Payment, which Registrant expenses monthly.

Reference is made to Note C above for a description of the terms of the Lease between Registrant and Lessee. As of June 30, 2011, entities for the benefit of Peter L. Malkin’s family own member interests in Lessee. The respective interests of the Members in Registrant and Lessee arise solely from ownership of their respective Participations in Registrant and, in the case of Peter L. Malkin, entity ownership of member interests for the benefit of family members in Lessee. The Members as such receive no extra or special benefit not shared on a pro rata basis with all other Participants in Registrant or members in Lessee. However, all of the Members hold senior positions at Supervisor (which supervises Registrant and Lessee) and, by reason of their positions at Supervisor, may receive income attributable to supervisory or other remuneration paid to Supervisor by Registrant and Lessee.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent events have been evaluated for potential recognition and disclosure.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Forward Looking Statements

Readers of this discussion are advised that the discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of Registrant (including related notes thereto) appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Certain statements in this discussion may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements reflect Registrant’s current expectations regarding future results of operations, economic performance, financial condition and achievements of Registrant, and do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Registrant has tried, wherever possible, to identify these forward-looking statements by using words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate” or words of similar meaning.

Although Registrant believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, which may cause the actual results to differ materially from those projected. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following: general economic and business conditions, which will, among other things, affect demand for rental space, the availability of prospective tenants, lease rents and the availability of financing; adverse changes in Registrant’s real estate market, including, among other things, competition with other real estate owners, risks of real estate development and acquisitions; governmental actions and initiatives; and environmental/safety requirements.

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Registrant was organized for the purpose of acquiring the Property subject to an operating lease held by Lessee. Registrant is required to pay, from Basic Rent under the Lease, mortgage charges and amounts for supervisory services. Registrant is required to pay from Additional Rent and Further Additional Rent an Additional Payment to Supervisor and other expenses and then to distribute the balance of such Additional Rent and Further Additional Rent less any additions to reserves to the Participants. See Note C to the condensed financial statements herein. Pursuant to the Lease, Lessee has assumed sole responsibility for the condition, operation, repair, maintenance and management of the Property. Registrant is not required to maintain substantial reserves or otherwise maintain liquid assets to defray any operating expenses of the Property.

Registrant’s results of operations are affected primarily by the amount of rent payable to it under the Lease. The amount of Additional Rent and Further Additional Rent payable to Registrant is affected by the New York City economy and real estate rental market, which is difficult for management to forecast.

Registrant does not pay dividends. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2011, Registrant made regular monthly distributions of $124.57 for each $10,000 Participation ($1,494.89 per annum for each $10,000 Participation). There are no restrictions on Registrant’s present or future ability to make distributions; however, the amount of such distributions, particularly distributions of Additional Rent and Further Additional Rent, depends on the ability of Lessee to make payments of Basic Rent, Additional Rent and Further Additional Rent to Registrant. Registrant expects to make distributions so long as it receives the payments provided for under the Lease.

During November 2010 Registrant did not make any additional distribution of Further Additional Rent received for the lease year ending September 30, 2010 to Participants but added to the contingency reserves of Registrant. See Notes C and D to the condensed financial statements herein.

The following summarizes, with respect to the current period and the corresponding period of the previous year, the material factors regarding Registrant’s results of operations for such periods:

Total revenues decreased for the six-month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year. Such decrease is the result of a decrease in dividend income and basic rent for the six-month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year.

Total revenues decreased for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year. Such decrease is the result of a decrease in dividend income and basic rent for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year.

Total expenses increased for the six-month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year. Such increase is the net result of a decrease in interest on the mortgages payable as a result of principal payments that reduced the loan balance, an increase in basic supervisory fees to Malkin Holdings effective July 1, 2010, an increase in depreciation of improvements and equipment attributable to an increase in depreciable assets placed in service, a decrease in amortization of leasing commissions as a result of certain leasing commissions having been fully amortized, and an increase in professional fees due to the fact that accounting fees were previously paid by Supervisor and due to the fees paid to Malkin Holdings for services rendered in connection with certain matters regarding ownership and operation of One Grand Central Place for the six-month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year.

Total expenses increased for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year. Such increase is the net result of a decrease in interest on the mortgages payable as a result of principal payments that reduced the loan balance, an increase in basic supervisory fees to Malkin Holdings effective July 1, 2010, an increase in depreciation of improvements and equipment attributable to an increase in depreciable assets placed in service, a decrease in amortization of leasing commissions as a result of certain leasing commissions having been fully amortized, and an increase in professional fees due to the fact that accounting fees were previously paid by Supervisor and due to the fees paid to Malkin Holdings for services rendered in connection with certain matters regarding ownership and operation of One Grand Central Place for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Registrant’s liquidity has decreased at June 30, 2011 as compared with December 31, 2010 as a result of payments made under the improvement program. Registrant may from time to time set cash aside for contingencies. Adverse developments in economic, credit and investment markets over the last two years impaired general liquidity (although some improvement in such markets has arisen recently) and the developments may negatively impact Registrant and/or space tenants at the Building. Any such impact should be ameliorated by the fact that (a) each of Registrant and its Lessee has very low debt in relation to asset value, (b) the maturity of Registrant’s existing and planned debt will not occur within the next 36 months, and (c) the Building’s rental revenue is derived from a substantial number of tenants in diverse businesses with lease termination dates spread over numerous years.

Amortization payments due under the First Mortgage commenced August 5, 2007, calculated on a 25-year amortization schedule. Amortization payments due under the additional $16,000,000 loan commenced December 5, 2009 calculated on a 25-year amortization schedule. The mortgages mature on November 5, 2014 at which time the aggregate principal balance due will be $84,411,371. Registrant does not maintain any reserve to cover the payments of such mortgage indebtedness at maturity. Therefore, repayment of the mortgages will depend on Registrant’s ability to arrange a refinancing. Assuming that the Property continues to generate an annual net profit in future years comparable to that in past years, and assuming further that real estate capital and operating markets return to more stable patterns, consistent with long-term historical real estate trends in the geographic area in which the Property is located, Registrant anticipates that the value of the Property will be in excess of the amount of the mortgage balances at maturity.

Registrant anticipates that funds for short-term working capital requirements for the Property will be provided by cash on hand and rental payments received from Lessee. Long-term sources of working capital will be provided by rental payments received from Lessee and to the extent necessary, from additional capital investment by the members in Lessee and/or external financing. However, as noted above, Registrant has no requirement to maintain substantial reserves to defray any operating expenses of the Property.

Inflation

Registrant believes that there has been no material change in the impact of inflation on its operations since the filing of its report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Security Ownership

As of June 30, 2011, the Members in Registrant owned of record and beneficially an aggregate $25,833 of participations in Registrant, representing 0.4% of the currently outstanding Participations therein.

As of June 30, 2011, certain of the Members in Registrant held additional Participations in Registrant as follows:

Peter L. Malkin owned of record as trustee or co-trustee an aggregate of $169,049 of Participations. Peter L. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such Participations.

Entities for the benefit of members of Peter L. Malkin’s family owned of record and beneficially $160,000 of Participations. Peter L. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such Participations, except that related family trusts or entities are required to complete scheduled payments to him.

Anthony E. Malkin owned of record as co-trustee an aggregate of $25,000 of Participations. Anthony E. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such Participations.

Trusts for the benefit of members of Anthony E. Malkin’s family owned of record and beneficially $40,000 of Participations. Anthony E. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such Participations.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.

(a)

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Supervisor after evaluating the effectiveness of Registrant’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2011, the end of the period covered by this report, has concluded that as of that date Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective and designed to ensure that material information relating to Registrant would be made known to it by others within those entities on a timely basis.

(b)

Changes in internal controls over financial reporting. There were no changes in Registrant’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Registrant’s internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The property of Registrant was the subject of the following material litigation:

Malkin Holdings LLC and Peter L. Malkin, a member in Registrant, were engaged in a proceeding with Lessee’s former managing agent, Helmsley-Spear, Inc. commenced in 1997, concerning the management, leasing, and supervision of the property that is subject to the Lease to Lessee. In this connection, certain costs for legal and professional fees and other expenses were paid by Malkin Holdings LLC and Mr. Malkin. Malkin Holdings LLC and Mr. Malkin have represented that such costs will be recovered only to the extent that (a) a competent tribunal authorizes payment or (b) an investor voluntarily agrees that his or her proportionate share be paid. Accordingly, Registrant’s allocable share of such costs is as yet undetermined, and Registrant has not provided for the expense and related liability with respect to such costs in its financial statements included in this Form 10-Q. As a result of an August 29, 2006 settlement agreement, which included termination of this proceeding, Registrant will not recognize any gains or losses from this proceeding other than the possible charges for the aforementioned fees and expenses.

Supervisory Services [Abstract]

Supervisory Services

Note E Supervisory Services

Registrant pays Supervisor for supervisory services and disbursements. The basic fee has been payable at the rate of $24,000 per annum, payable $2,000 per month, since October 1, 1958. The Agents approved an increase in such fee in an amount equal to the increase in the consumer price index since such date, resulting in an increase in the basic fee to $180,000 per annum effective July 1, 2010. The basic fee will be subject to further increase in accordance with any future increase in the consumer price index. The fee is payable (i) not less than $2,000 per month and (ii) the balance out of available reserves from Further Additional Rent. If Further Additional Rent is insufficient to pay such balance, any deficiency shall be payable in the next year in which Further Additional Rent is sufficient. In addition, the Agents also approved payment by Registrant, effective July 1, 2010, of the expenses in connection with regular accounting services related to maintenance of Registrant’s books and records. Such expenses were previously paid by Supervisor.

The basic supervisory services provided to Registrant by Supervisor include, but are not limited to, maintaining all of its entity and Participant records, performing physical inspections of the Building, providing or coordinating certain counsel services to Registrant, reviewing insurance coverage and conducting annual supervisory review meetings, receipt of monthly rent from Lessee, payment of monthly and additional distributions to the Participants, payment of all other disbursements, confirmation of the payment of real estate taxes, active review of financial statements submitted to Registrant by Lessee and financial statements audited by and tax information prepared by Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm, and distribution of related materials to the Participants. Supervisor also prepares quarterly, annual and other periodic filings with the SEC and applicable state authorities.

Registrant pays Supervisor for other services at hourly rates. Pursuant to the fee arrangements described herein, Registrant incurred supervisory service fees of $93,690 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2011. Supervisory fees were $15,690 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010. No remuneration was paid during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 by Registrant to any of the Members.

Supervisor also receives a payment (“Additional Payment”) equal to 10% of all distributions to Participants in Registrant in any year in excess of the amount representing a return to them at the rate of 14% per annum on their remaining cash investment in Registrant (which remaining cash investment at June 30, 2011 was equal to the Participants’ original cash investment of $7,000,000). For tax purposes, such Additional Payment is recognized as a profits interest, and the Supervisor is treated as a partner, all without modifying each Participant’s distributive share of reportable income and cash distribution. Supervisor receives $7,380 a year as an advance against the Additional Payment, which Registrant expenses monthly.

Reference is made to Note C above for a description of the terms of the Lease between Registrant and Lessee. As of June 30, 2011, entities for the benefit of Peter L. Malkin’s family own member interests in Lessee. The respective interests of the Members in Registrant and Lessee arise solely from ownership of their respective Participations in Registrant and, in the case of Peter L. Malkin, entity ownership of member interests for the benefit of family members in Lessee. The Members as such receive no extra or special benefit not shared on a pro rata basis with all other Participants in Registrant or members in Lessee. However, all of the Members hold senior positions at Supervisor (which supervises Registrant and Lessee) and, by reason of their positions at Supervisor, may receive income attributable to supervisory or other remuneration paid to Supervisor by Registrant and Lessee.

Note B Organization

Registrant was originally organized as a partnership on September 25, 1958. On October 1, 1958, Registrant acquired fee title to One Grand Central Place, formerly known as the Lincoln Building, at the address 60 East 42nd Street, New York, New York (the “Building”) and the land there under (the “Property”). On November 28, 2001, Registrant converted to a limited liability company under New York law and is now known as 60 East 42nd St. Associates L.L.C. The conversion did not change any aspect of the assets and operations of Registrant other than to protect its participants from liability to third parties. Registrant’s members (“Members”) are Peter L. Malkin and Anthony E. Malkin (collectively, the “Agents”), each of whom also acts as an agent for holders of participations (“Participations”) in their respective member interest in Registrant (the “Participants”). The Members in Registrant hold senior positions at Malkin Holdings LLC (“Malkin Holdings” or “Supervisor”) (formerly Wien & Malkin LLC), One Grand Central Place, 60 East 42nd Street, New York, New York, which provides supervisory and other services to Registrant and to Lessee.

Lease

Lease [Abstract]

Lease

Note C Lease

Registrant does not operate the Property. Registrant leases the Property to Lincoln Building Associates L.L.C. (“Lessee”) pursuant to an operating lease as modified (the “Lease”), which is currently set to expire on September 30, 2033. Lessee is a New York limited liability company whose members consist of, among others, entities for the benefit of members of Peter L. Malkin’s family.

The Lease provides that Lessee is required to pay rent to Registrant as follows:

(i) annual basic rent (“Basic Rent”) equal to the sum of $24,000 plus the constant annual mortgage charges on all mortgages. In accordance with the Ninth Lease Modification Agreement dated November 5, 2009, Basic Rent was increased to cover debt service on a $100,000,000 mortgage. See Note D. Basic Rent will be increased or decreased upon the refinancing of the mortgages provided that the aggregate principal balance of all mortgages now or hereafter placed on the Property does not exceed $100,000,000 plus refinancing costs.

(ii) additional rent (“Additional Rent”) equal to, on an annual basis, the lesser of (x) Lessee’s net operating income (as defined) for the lease year ending September 30 or (y) $1,053,800 ($87,817 per month) and further additional rent (“Further Additional Rent”) equal to 50% of any remaining balance of Lessee’s net operating income for such lease year. (Lessee has no obligation to make any payment of Additional Rent or Further Additional Rent until after Lessee has recouped any cumulative operating loss accruing from and after September 30, 1977. There is currently no accumulated operating loss against which to offset payment of Additional Rent or Further Additional Rent.)

The Lease also requires an advance against Additional Rent equal to, on an annual basis, the lesser of (x) Lessee’s net operating income for the preceding lease year or (y) $1,053,800 which is recorded in revenue in monthly installments of $87,817, which, in the latter amount, will permit basic distributions to Participants at an annual rate of approximately 14.95% per annum on their remaining cash investment in Registrant; provided, however, if such advances exceed Lessee’s net operating income for any lease year, advances otherwise required during the subsequent lease year shall be reduced by an amount equal to such excess until Lessee shall have recovered, through retention of net operating income, the full amount of such excess. After the Participants have received distributions equal to a return of 14% per annum, $7,380 is paid to Supervisor from the advances against Additional Rent.

Lessee is required to make an annual payment to Registrant of Further Additional Rent, which, as explained above, is the amount representing 50% of the remaining net operating income reported by Lessee for the lease year ending September 30th after deducting the advance against Additional Rent. The Lease requires that the report be delivered by Lessee to Registrant annually within 60 days after the end of each such lease year. Since it is not practicable to estimate Further Additional Rent for the lease year ending on September 30^th which would be allocable to the first nine months of the lease year until Lessee, pursuant to the Lease, renders to Registrant a report on the operation of the Property. Registrant recognizes Further Additional Rent when earned from the Lessee at the close of the lease year ending September 30^th and records such amount in revenue during the three months ended September 30th.

For the lease year ended September 30, 2010, Lessee reported net operating income of $1,164,498. Lessee paid advances against Additional Rent of $1,053,800 for that lease year prior to September 30, 2010 and Further Additional Rent of $55,347 subsequent to September 30, 2010. The Further Additional Rent of $55,347 represents 50% of the excess of the Lessee’s net operating income of $1,164,498 over $1,053,800. During November 2010 Registrant did not make any additional distribution of Further Additional Rent received for the lease year ending September 30, 2010 to Participants but added to the contingency reserves of Registrant.

Mortgages Payable [Abstract]

Mortgages Payable

Note D Mortgages Payable

On November 29, 2004, a new first mortgage (“Mortgage”) was placed on the Property in the amount of $84,000,000 with Prudential Insurance Company of America to provide financing for the improvement program described below. At closing, $49,000,000 was drawn to pay off the former first mortgage with Morgan Guaranty Trust Company in the amount of $12,020,814 and the second mortgage in the amount of $27,979,186 with Emigrant Savings Bank. The remaining $35,000,000 available under the Mortgage was drawn on various dates through July 5, 2007. The proceeds of $49,000,000 drawn at closing and all subsequent draws have been used to pay for refinancing costs and capital improvements as needed. The initial draw of $49,000,000 and all subsequent draws required constant equal monthly payments of interest only, at the rate of 5.34% per annum, until July 5, 2007. Commencing August 5, 2007, Registrant is required to make equal monthly payments of $507,838 applied to interest and then principal calculated on a 25-year amortization schedule. The entire $84,000,000 has been drawn and at June 30, 2011 the balance is $77,010,194. The Mortgage matures on November 5, 2014 at which time the principal balance will be $69,797,589.

On November 5, 2009 Registrant took out an additional $16,000,000 loan with Prudential Insurance Company of America secured by a second mortgage on the Property, subordinate to the first mortgage and to be used for capital improvements. The loan requires payments of interest at 7% per annum and principal in the aggregate amount of $113,085 calculated on a twenty-five year amortization schedule and is co-terminus with the first mortgage. At June 30, 2011, the balance is $15,604,356. The mortgage matures on November 5, 2014 with a principal balance of $14,613,782.

The mortgage loans may be prepaid at any time, in whole only, upon payment of a prepayment penalty based on a yield maintenance formula. There is no prepayment penalty if the mortgages are paid in full during the last 60 days of the term.

The estimated fair value of Registrant’s mortgage debt based on available market information is approximately $97,019,193 as of June 30, 2011.

Mortgage financing costs of $2,873,632 were capitalized by Registrant and are being amortized ratably over the terms of the mortgages.

In 1999, the Participants of Registrant and the members in Lessee consented to a building improvements program (the “Program”) estimated to cost approximately $22,800,000. In 2000, the Participants of Registrant and members in Lessee approved an increase in the Program from $22,800,000 to approximately $28,000,000 under substantially the same conditions as had previously been approved. To induce the Lessee to approve the Program, Registrant authorized the Agents to grant to the Lessee, upon completion of the Program, the right to further extensions of the Lease to 2083. The Program was further increased in 2004 to up to $100,000,000. Such increase is expected to permit extending the Lease beyond 2083, based on the net present benefit to Registrant of the improvements made. The granting of such Lease extension rights upon completion of the Program is expected to trigger a New York State Transfer Tax under current tax rules, which will be paid from mortgage proceeds and/or the Lessee’s operating cash flow. As of June 30, 2011, Registrant had incurred costs related to the Program of $73,394,966 and estimates that the Program upon completion will be approximately $100,000,000 including sprinkler work, required to be completed by 2019. The Participants of Registrant and the members in Lessee had approved increased refinancing of $16,000,000 from the total of $84,000,000 provided by the Mortgage to up to $100,000,000. As noted above, the additional $16,000,000 financing closed on November 5, 2009. Costs of the Program in excess of financing, if applicable, will be funded out of Lessee’s operating cash flow.
