How do you vote?

You may vote in person at the Annual Meeting or you may authorize a proxy over the Internet (atwww.proxyvote.com), by telephone (at1-800-690-6903) or by executing and returning a proxy card. Once you authorize a proxy, you may revoke that proxy by (1) executing and submitting a later-dated proxy card, (2) subsequently authorizing a proxy through the Internet or by telephone, (3) sending a written revocation of proxy to our Secretary at our office at 888 Seventh Avenue, New York, New York 10019, or (4) attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

If you hold your common shares in “street name” (that is, through a bank, broker or other nominee), your nominee will not vote your shares unless you provide instructions to your nominee on how to vote your shares. You should instruct your nominee how to vote your shares by following the directions provided by your nominee.

We will pay the cost of soliciting proxies. We have hired MacKenzie Partners, Inc. to solicit proxies at a fee not to exceed $5,000.$6,000. In addition to solicitation by mail, by telephone and bye-mail or the Internet,

arrangements may be made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to send proxies and proxy materials to their principals, and we may reimburse them for their expenses in so doing. If you hold shares in “street name” (i.e., through a bank, broker or other nominee), you will receive instructions from your nominee, which you must follow in order to have your proxy authorized or you may contact your nominee directly to request these instructions.

Who is entitled to vote?

Only stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 18, 201916, 2020 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. We refer to this date as the “record date.” On that date, 5,107,290 common shares, par value $1.00 per share (“Shares”), were outstanding. Holders of Shares as of the record date are entitled to one vote per share on each matter properly presented at the Annual Meeting.

How do you attend the meeting in person?

If you would like to attend the Annual Meeting in person, you will need to bring an account statement or other acceptable evidence of ownership of your Shares as of the close of business on the record date. If you hold Shares in street name and wish to vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you will need to contact your bank, broker or other nominee and obtain a proxy from your nominee and bring it to the Annual Meeting. Directions to attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person are available upon request to the Secretary of the Company at its offices.

Could COVID-19 affect our ability to hold an in-person annual meeting?

Yes. We are monitoring the COVID-19 situation closely. If we determine that holding an in-person Annual Meeting could pose a risk to the health and safety of our stockholders, employees and directors, we will announce alternative arrangements for the meeting as promptly as practicable, which may include holding the meeting solely by means of remote communication. A virtual meeting will have no impact on stockholders’ ability to provide their proxy by using the Internet or telephone or by completing, signing, dating and mailing their proxy card, each as explained in this proxy statement. As always, we encourage you to vote your shares prior to the Annual Meeting.

How will your votes be counted?

The holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares as of the close of business on the record date, present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Any proxy, properly executed and submitted, will be voted as directed and, if no direction is given, will be voted as recommended by the Board of Directors in this Proxy Statement and in the discretion of the proxy holder on any other matter that may properly come before the meeting. A brokernon-vote and any proxy marked “withhold authority” or an abstention, as applicable, will count for the purposes of determining a quorum, but will have no effect on the result of the vote on the election of directors, or the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm.firm, or the non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation.

The election of each of our nominees for director requires a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. The ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm requires a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. The vote on executive compensation, which requires a majority of the votes cast at the meeting, is advisory only.

It is the Company’s understanding that Interstate Properties (“Interstate”), a New Jersey general partnership (an owner of shopping centers and an investor in securities and partnerships), Interstate’s general partners, and Vornado Realty Trust (“Vornado”), who, as of March 18, 2019,16, 2020, own, in the aggregate, approximately 59% of the outstanding Shares, will vote (1) for the approval of the election of the nominees listed in this Proxy Statement for directors, and (2) for the ratification of the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, and (3) for the advisory resolution on executive compensation, and, therefore, it is likely that these matters will be approved.

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our Board currently has seveneight members. Our Bylaws provide that our directors are divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as reasonably possible, as determined by the Board. One class of

2

directors is elected at each Annual Meeting to hold office for a term of three years (until the applicable Annual Meeting of Stockholders in that third year) and until their respective successors have been duly elected and qualified.

Unless otherwise directed in the proxy, each of the persons named in the attached proxy will vote such proxy for the election of the twothree nominees listed below as Class III directors. If any nominee at the time of election is unavailable to serve, it is intended that each of the persons named in the proxy will vote for an alternative nominee who will be nominated by the Board. Alternatively, the Board may reduce the size of the Board and the number of nominees. Proxies may be voted only for the nominees named or such alternates. We do not currently anticipate that any nominee for directors will be unable to serve as a director.

The Board of Directors recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” approval of the election of the nominees listed below to serve as Class III directors until 20222023 and until their respective successors have been duly elected and qualified.

Under our Bylaws, the affirmative vote of a plurality of votes present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote for the election of directors, if a quorum is present, is sufficient to elect a director. Proxies marked “withhold authority” will be counted for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum but will have no effect on the result of the vote. A brokernon-vote will have no effect on the result of the vote.

The following table sets forth the nominees (both(all of whom are presently members of the Board) and other present members of the Board who will continue on the Board following the Annual Meeting, together with a brief biography for each such person and the year in which the person became a director of the Company.

4

We are not aware of any family relationships among any directors or executive officers of the Company or persons nominated or chosen by the Company to become directors or executive officers.

For information about other relationships among directors or our executive officers, please see “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions” below.

Corporate Governance

Our Shares are listed for trading with The New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the “NYSE”) and we are subject to the NYSE’s Corporate Governance Standards. However, because more than 51%50% of our Shares are owned by a “group” consisting of Interstate and Vornado, as well as Interstate’s general partners, the Company is a “controlled” company and therefore, is exempt from some of the NYSE Corporate Governance Standards. In the Company’s case, this means, among other things, that we are not required to have a nominating committee or, even though our Compensation Committee and Board meetmeets these requirements, that we have a fully independent Compensation Committee or that a majority of directors be independent under the NYSE rules.

On March 25, 2020, Ms. Mandakini Puri was appointed to the Board.  The Board has determined that Messrs. DiBenedetto and Mandelbaum, Ms.Mses. Puri and Silverstein, Messrs. Sonnenblick and Wight and Dr. West are independent for the purposes of the NYSE Corporate Governance Standards. Accordingly, sixseven out of eight of our seven directors are independent. The Board reached this conclusion after considering all applicable relationships between or among such directors and the Company or management of the Company. These relationships are described in the section of this Proxy Statement entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.” The Board further determined that such directors meet all of the “bright-line” requirements of the NYSE Corporate Governance Standards as well as the categorical standards adopted by the Board in our Corporate Governance Guidelines.

As part of its commitment to good corporate governance, the Board of Directors has adopted the following committee charters and policies:

We have made available on our website (www.alx-inc.com) copies of these charters, guidelines and policies. We will post any future changes to these charters, guidelines or policies to our website and may not otherwise publicly file such changes. Our regular filings with the SEC and our directors’ and executive officers’ filings under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are also available on our website. In addition, copies of these charters, guidelines and policies are available free of charge from the Company upon written request. Requests should be sent to our investor relations department at our principal executive office.

The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applies to all of our directors, executives and other employees.

While the Company does not have a formal policy against hedging, all executives, as executives of Vornado, are subject to the anti-hedging policy of Vornado which policy also applies to the securities of the Company.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Board has an Executive Committee, an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee. The Board does not have a Nominating Committee.

The Board held six meetings during 2019. Each director attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and all committees on which he or she served during 2019.

In addition to full meetings of the Board, non-management, independent directors met six times in sessions without members of management present. During these meetings, the independent directors selected their own presiding member.

Executive Committee

The Executive Committee possesses and may exercise all the authority and powers of the Board in the management of the business and affairs of the Company, except those reserved to the Board by the Delaware General Corporation Law. The Executive Committee consists of three members: Messrs. Roth and Wight and Dr. West. Mr. Roth is the Chairman of the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee did not meet in 2019.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee, which held five meetings during 2019, consisted of three members prior to March 25, 2020: Messrs. DiBenedetto and Sonnenblick and Dr. West (as its Chair). On March 25, 2020, the Board appointed Mses. Puri and Silverstein to also serve on the Audit Committee and Mr. Sonnenblick rotated off the Committee.  The Board has determined that these directors are independent for the purposes of the NYSE Corporate Governance Standards, that they meet the additional requirements of independence for serving on the Audit Committee in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC and that they meet the financial literacy standards of the NYSE.  

In addition, at all times at least one member of the Audit Committee has met the NYSE standards for financial management expertise. The Board has determined that each of Dr. West, Ms. Puri and Ms. Silverstein is qualified to serve as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined by SEC Regulation S-K, and thus has at least one such individual serving on its Audit Committee. The Board reached this conclusion based on his or her relevant experience, as described above under “Proposal 1: Election of Directors.”

The Audit Committee’s purposes are to: (i) assist the Board in its oversight of (a) the integrity of the Company’s financial statements, (b) the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (c) the independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, and (d) the performance of the independent registered public accounting firm and the Company’s internal audit function; and (ii) prepare an Audit Committee report as required by the SEC for inclusion in the Company’s annual Proxy Statement. The function of the Audit Committee is oversight. The management of the Company is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of our financial statements and for the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Management is responsible for maintaining appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles and policies and internal controls and procedures that provide for compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for planning and carrying out a proper audit of our annual financial statements prior to the filing of each Annual Report on Form 10-K, reviews of our quarterly financial statements prior to the filing of each Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and annually auditing the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, and other procedures. The Board has adopted a written Audit Committee Charter.

Persons interested in contacting our Audit Committee members with regard to accounting, auditing or financial concerns will find information on how to do so on our website (www.alx-inc.com). This means of contact should not be used for solicitations or communications with us of a general nature.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing the terms of the compensation of executive officers. During 2019, the Compensation Committee consisted of two independent members, Dr. West, as Chairman, and Mr. DiBenedetto. The Compensation Committee met once in 2019.

From time to time, the Compensation Committee consults with one or more executive compensation experts. No compensation consultants were engaged by the Compensation Committee or the Company during 2019.

Selection of Directors

The Board is responsible for selecting the nominees for election to our Board. The members of the Board may, in their discretion, work or otherwise consult with members of management of the Company in selecting nominees. The Board evaluates nominees, including stockholder nominees (see “Advance Notice for Stockholder Nominations and Stockholder Proposals”), by considering, among others, the criteria set out in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines. Our Board believes that our current leadership structure is appropriate.

Criteria and Diversity

In considering whether to recommend any candidate for election or re-election as a director, including candidates recommended by stockholders, the Board will apply the criteria set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines and considers criteria including:

Accordingly, in consideration with many other factors, the Board selects nominees with a broad diversity of abilities, experience, professions, skills and backgrounds. The Board does not assign specific weights to particular criteria and no particular criterion is necessarily applicable to all prospective nominees. The Company believes that the backgrounds and qualifications of members of our Board of Directors, considered as a group, should provide a significant composite mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will allow the Board to fulfill its responsibilities. Nominees are not discriminated against on the basis of race, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, disability or any other basis proscribed by law.

We believe our current nominees for the Board of Directors and the other members of our Board collectively have the abilities, skills and experience to create a board that is well-suited to oversee the management of our Company. Each member has the integrity, business judgment and commitment to our Board and our shareholders that comprise essential characteristics for a director of Alexander’s. Our directors also bring to the Board highly developed skills in diverse areas such as finance and investing, accounting, law and the operation of real estate companies and are recognized leaders in their respective fields. In addition, members of the Board have diverse views and experiences that strengthen their ability to guide our Company. In addition, all of our directors have extensive experience serving on the boards, and/or being at the most senior management level, of other public or private organizations. More specifically, each of our longer-serving directors has extensive experience in the real estate industry generally, and with Alexander’s specifically, and is skilled in the investment in and operation of real estate or real estate companies. Each of Mses. Puri and Silverstein and Dr. West brings extensive experience in financial and accounting oversight. Messrs. DiBenedetto, Roth and Sonnenblick and Ms. Silverstein each has experience leading other companies. Messrs. DiBenedetto, Mandelbaum, Roth, Sonnenblick and Wight and Ms. Silverstein each have extensive real estate experience. Dr. West has had a lengthy career in academia and as a leader of prominent business schools. Mr. Mandelbaum has extensive legal experience. Messrs. DiBenedetto and Roth and Mses. Puri and Silverstein each have extensive capital markets experience.  Our Board greatly benefits from this robust and diverse set of abilities, skills and experience. For more detail concerning the experience of the members of our Board of Directors, please refer to the biographies of the members that are set forth above.

Leadership Structure

Currently, our Chairman of the Board, Steven Roth, also serves as our Chief Executive Officer. While our Board has determined that a majority of its members are independent for purposes of the listed company standards under the rules and regulations of the NYSE, we do not have an independent lead director. Our Board has determined that this leadership structure is appropriate in light of the circumstances affecting the Company, including its current activities and business strategy. Accordingly, the Board believes it has the best individual serving both roles.

The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

While risk management is primarily the responsibility of the Company’s senior management team, the Board of Directors is responsible for the overall supervision of the Company’s risk management activities. The Board’s oversight of the material risks faced by our Company occurs at both the full Board level and at the committee level. The Board’s role in the Company’s risk oversight process includes regularly receiving reports from members of senior management on areas of material risk to the Company, including operational, financial, legal and regulatory, strategic and reputational risks. The full Board (or the appropriate committee in the case of risks that are under the purview of a particular committee) receives these reports from the appropriate “risk owner” within the organization or in connection with other management-prepared assessments of risk to enable it to understand our risk identification, risk management and risk mitigation strategies. By “risk owner,” we mean that person or group of persons who is or are primarily responsible for overseeing a particular risk. As part of its charter, the Audit Committee discusses our policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management and reports to the full Board its conclusions as a partial basis for further discussion by the full Board. This enables the Board and the applicable committees to coordinate the risk oversight role, particularly with respect to risk interrelationships. The Compensation Committee reviews our compensation program to ensure that it is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s risk management or create incentives that could lead to excessive or inappropriate risk taking by our employees.

Attendance at Annual Meetings of Stockholders

All of our then serving directors were present at the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. We do not have a policy with regard to directors’ attendance at Annual Meetings of Stockholders.

**********************************************************************************************

Persons wishing to contact the independent members of the Board should call (866) 233-4238. A recording of each phone call will be forwarded to one independent member of the Board who sits on the Audit Committee as well as to two members of management who may respond to any such call if a return number is provided. This means of contact should not be used for solicitations or communications with us of a general nature. Information on how to contact us generally is available on our website (www.alx-inc.com).

PRINCIPAL SECURITY HOLDERS

The following table sets forth the number of Shares beneficially owned, as of March 16, 2020, by (i) each person who holds more than a 5% interest in the Company, (ii) directors of the Company, (iii) named executive officers of the Company and (iv) the directors and executive officers of the Company as a group.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a)  REPORTS

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the SEC reports of ownership of, and transactions in, our equity securities. Such directors, executive officers and 10% stockholders are also required to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

Based solely on a review of the Forms 3, 4 and 5, and any amendments thereto, furnished to us, and on written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe there were no late filings under Section 16(a) by our directors, executive officers and 10% stockholders during 2019.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The Compensation Committee is responsible for decisions concerning the performance and compensation of our executive officers and administering our equity-based plans. As of December 31, 2019 and as of the date of this Proxy Statement, our executive officers are Steven Roth, Chief Executive Officer and Matthew J. Iocco, Chief Financial Officer (such persons being our “named executive officers” for 2019).

Overview of Compensation Philosophy and Program

We are managed by, and our properties are leased and developed by, Vornado, pursuant to agreements, which expire in March of each year, and are automatically renewable. We do not pay cash compensation to any of Vornado’s executive officers for services rendered. In lieu of cash compensation or other benefits and to align their interests with those of our stockholders, our Board has historically determined to compensate our named executive officers for their services to us only with equity-based compensation although we have not made any such awards in several years. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, there are no equity-based awards outstanding under our 2016 Omnibus Stock Plan to our named executive officers (other than in their capacity as directors).

Cash Compensation

None of our executive officers receives a salary or bonus or is otherwise compensated by the Company except Mr. Roth in his capacity as a director.

Equity Compensation

We adopted the Alexander’s, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Stock Plan (the “Plan”) in 2016 with the approval of our stockholders. Under the Plan, the Compensation Committee has the authority to grant to members of our management or Board options, restricted shares or units, stock appreciation rights, Deferred Stock Units and other equity-based compensation. In 2019, no equity-based compensation awards were granted to our named executive officers (other than Mr. Roth in his capacity as a director). As of the date of this Proxy Statement, there are no equity-based awards outstanding under the Plan to our named executive officers (other than Mr. Roth in his capacity as a director).

To the extent that equity-based awards are granted, grants are effective as of the date of approval by our Compensation Committee at the average of the high and low price of our Shares on the New York Stock Exchange on that date. The Company accounts for all stock-based compensation in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718—Stock Compensation (“FASB ASC Topic 718”).

Role of Compensation Consultants

From time to time, we and the Compensation Committee consult with one or more executive compensation experts, and consider the compensation levels of other companies in our industry and other industries that compete for the same talent. Our compensation consultants did not participate in compensation decisions for the periods presented.

Employment Agreements, Change of Control and Severance Arrangements

There are no employment contracts or severance or change of control arrangements with any of our named executive officers.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

We have not established any policy regarding security ownership by management. In accordance with Federal securities law, we prohibit short sales by our officers of our equity securities.

2017 Non-binding Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation

At our 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our stockholders approved our non-binding advisory proposal on executive compensation by the affirmative vote of 89% of the shares cast on the proposal. The Compensation Committee believes that this result affirms our stockholders’ support of the Company’s approach to executive compensation.  The Compensation Committee will continue to consider the level of stockholder approval to the Company’s advisory proposal on executive compensation when making future compensation decisions for our executive officers.  Also at our 2017 Annual Meeting, our stockholders voted to hold non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation every three years.

Tax Deductibility of Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (“Section 162(m)”) provides that, in general, publicly traded companies may not deduct, in any taxable year, compensation in excess of $1,000,000 paid to such companies’ “covered employees,” which historically included the chief executive officer and up to three other most highly-compensated executive officers (excluding the chief financial officer) as of the end of any fiscal year which is not “qualified performance-based compensation,” as defined in Section 162(m).  The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, enacted on December 22, 2017, repealed the exclusion for qualified performance-based compensation under Section 162(m), effective January 1, 2018, except for compensation payable pursuant to a written binding contract in place before November 2, 2017 that is not materially modified thereafter, and added the chief financial officer to the group of covered employees.  For 2019, we and the Compensation Committee complied with the limitations of Section 162(m) to the extent practicable and consistent with retaining, attracting and motivating the Company’s executive officers. However, to maintain flexibility in compensating executive officers in a manner designed to promote the goals of the Company and its stockholders, we have not adopted a policy that all executive compensation must be deductible. The limitations of Section 162(m) did not apply to the compensation we paid in recent years.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Alexander’s, Inc. (the “Company”) has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K of the Securities and Exchange Commission with management and, based on such review and discussions, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in the Proxy Statement.

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors:

RICHARD R. WEST

THOMAS R. DIBENEDETTO

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The following table sets forth the compensation earned by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer for 2019, 2018 and 2017 (the “Covered Executives”).

During the year ending December 31, 2019, none of our Covered Executives had any stock options or held any other equity that vested other than Deferred Stock Units awarded to Mr. Roth in his capacity as a director that were fully vested upon grant.

Pension Benefits

As of December 31, 2019 and as of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Company offered no plan that provides for payment of pension benefits to any Covered Executives.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation

The following table summarizes the contributions, earnings, withdrawals and balance for the Covered Executives for and at year-end 2019 in their capacity as directors:

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

Our named executive officers were not entitled to any payments or benefits upon a termination or in connection with a change in control of the Company.

Compensation and Risk

The Compensation Committee is of the opinion that our compensation program is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s risk management or create incentives that could lead to excessive or inappropriate risk taking by our employees.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

The following table summarizes the status of the Company’s equity compensation plan at March 16, 2020.

Pay Ratio Disclosure Rule

In August 2015, pursuant to a mandate of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd – Frank Act”), the SEC adopted a rule requiring annual disclosure of the ratio of the median employee’s annual total compensation to the total annual compensation of the principal executive officer (‟PEO”).  The Company’s PEO is Mr. Roth.  Pursuant to SEC rules, we identified a “Median Employee” and compared such employee’s total compensation to that of Mr. Roth.  As of December 31, 2019, the Company employed 69 persons.  The applicable information is set forth below:

In determining the Median Employee, a listing was prepared of all employees as of December 31, 2019.  Wages and salaries were annualized for those employees that were not employed for the full year of 2019.  The Median Employee was selected from the annualized list. 

Compensation of Directors

The Company’s directors receive the following compensation: (1) an annual cash retainer of $75,000; (2) an annual equity grant having a market value equal to approximately $75,000 on the date of grant (without regard to the impact of transfer restrictions); (3) an annual cash retainer for the Chair of the Audit Committee of $15,000; (4) an annual cash retainer for each member of the Audit Committee (other than the Chair) of $10,000; (5) an annual cash retainer for the Chair of any other Board committee (other than the Executive Committee) of $10,000; (6) an annual cash retainer for a member of each such other committee of $5,000; and (7) a meeting fee for each Board or committee meeting of $1,000. The annual equity grant is in the form of Deferred Stock Units. In 2019, each Director received 193 Deferred Stock Units. Deferred Stock Units vest on the date of grant and are convertible on a one-for-one basis into Shares, but may not be converted into Shares or transferred until the departure of the applicable Director from our Board. Dividends are payable on Deferred Stock Units. Ms. Puri was appointed to our Board on March 25, 2020 and, accordingly, did not receive any compensation in 2019 and the table below does not contain information with respect to Ms. Puri.  The following table sets forth the compensation for the members of the Company’s Board of Directors for 2019.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

The Company has a Compensation Committee consisting of Dr. West and Mr. DiBenedetto. There are no interlocking relationships involving the Company’s Board, which require disclosure under the executive compensation rules of the SEC.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Review and Approval of Related Person Transactions

We review all relationships and transactions in which the Company and our significant stockholders, directors and our executive officers or their respective immediate family members are participants to determine whether such persons have a direct or indirect material interest. The Company’s legal and financial staff are primarily responsible for the development and implementation of processes and controls to obtain information from our significant stockholders, directors and our executive officers with respect to related-person transactions and for then determining, based on the facts and circumstances, whether the Company or a related person has a direct or indirect material interest in the transaction. As required under SEC rules, transactions that are determined to be directly or indirectly material to the Company or a related person are disclosed in our Proxy Statement. In addition, our Audit Committee reviews and approves or ratifies any related-person transaction that is required to be disclosed. The Committee, in the course of its review of a disclosable related-party transaction, considers: (1) the nature of the related person’s interest in the transaction; (2) the material terms of the transaction; (3) the importance of the transaction to the related person; (4) the importance of the transaction to the Company; (5) whether the transaction would impair the judgment of a director or executive officer to act in the best interest of the Company; and (6) any other matters the Committee deems appropriate.

Relationship with Vornado

At March 16, 2020, Vornado owned approximately 32% of the Company’s outstanding Shares. We are managed by, and our properties are leased and developed by, Vornado, pursuant to the agreements described below, which expire in March of each year and are automatically renewable.

Steven Roth is the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, the Managing General Partner of Interstate, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Vornado and its Chief Executive Officer. At March 16, 2020, Mr. Roth, Interstate and its two other general partners, David Mandelbaum and Russell B. Wight, Jr. (who are also directors of the Company and trustees of Vornado) owned, in the aggregate, approximately 26% of the outstanding Shares of the Company, and approximately 7% of the outstanding common shares of beneficial interest of Vornado. Matthew J. Iocco, our Chief Financial Officer, is the Executive Vice President, Chief Accounting Officer and Principal Accounting Officer of Vornado.  Of our other directors, Ms. Silverstein was an employee of Vornado until 2015, and each of Ms. Puri and Dr. West serves as a trustee of Vornado.  

Management and Development Agreements

Pursuant to our management and development agreement with Vornado, we pay Vornado an annual management fee equal to the sum of (i) $2,800,000, (ii) 2% of gross revenue from the Rego Park II shopping center, (iii) $0.50 per square foot of the tenant-occupied office and retail space at 731 Lexington Avenue and (iv) $324,000, escalating at 3% per annum, for managing the common area of 731 Lexington Avenue. Vornado is also entitled to a development fee of 6% of development costs, as defined.

Leasing and Other Agreements

Vornado also provides us with leasing services for a fee of 3% of rent for the first ten years of a lease term, 2% of rent for the eleventh through the twentieth year of a lease term, and 1% of rent for the twenty-first through thirtieth year of a lease term, subject to the payment of rents by tenants. In the event third-party real estate brokers are used, the fees to Vornado increase by 1% and Vornado is responsible for the fees to the third-party real estate brokers. Vornado is also entitled to a commission upon the sale of any of our assets equal to 3% of gross proceeds, as defined, for asset sales less than $50,000,000 and 1% of gross proceeds, as defined, for asset sales of $50,000,000 or more.

We also have agreements with Building Maintenance Services, a wholly owned subsidiary of Vornado, to supervise (i) cleaning, engineering and security services at our Lexington Avenue property and (ii) security services at our Rego Park I and Rego Park II properties and The Alexander apartment tower.

During the year ended December 31, 2019, we incurred $2,800,000 in management fees, $29,000 in development fees, $4,786,000 in leasing fees and $5,015,000 in property management and other fees under our agreements with Vornado. At December 31, 2019, we owed Vornado $563,000 for leasing fees, $795,000 for management, property management and other fees, and $68,000 for development fees.

Relationship with Toys ‘R’ Us (“Toys”)

Our affiliate, Vornado, owned 32.5% of Toys as of December 31, 2018.  On February 1, 2019, in connection with the Toys Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the plan of reorganization for Toys was declared effective and Vornado’s ownership in Toys was canceled and Toys’ Board of Directors was dissolved.  Joseph Macnow, our Treasurer and Vornado’s Executive Vice President—Chief Financial Officer and Chief Administrative Officer, and Wendy A. Silverstein, a member of our Board of Directors, had served on Toys’ Board of Directors until that date.  Also in connection with the Toys Chapter 11 bankruptcy, Toys rejected its 47,000 square foot lease at our Rego Park II shopping center effective June 30, 2018 and possession of the space was returned to us.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee’s purposes are to (i) assist the Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”) of Alexander’s, Inc. (the “Company”) in its oversight of (a) the integrity of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, (b) the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (c) the independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, and (d) the performance of the independent registered public accounting firm and the Company’s internal audit function; and (ii) prepare an Audit Committee report as required by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for inclusion in the Company’s annual Proxy Statement. The function of the Audit Committee is oversight. The Board, in its business judgment, has determined that all members of the Audit Committee are “independent” as required by the applicable listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), as currently in effect, and in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. The Board has also determined that each member of the Audit Committee is financially literate and has accounting or related financial management expertise, as such qualifications are defined under the rules of the NYSE and that each of  Dr. West and Mses. Puri and Silverstein is an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the rules of the SEC. The Audit Committee operates pursuant to an Audit Committee Charter.

Management is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of the Company’s financial statements and for the establishment and effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, and for maintaining appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles and internal controls and procedures that provide for compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. The independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, is responsible for planning and carrying out a proper audit of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), expressing opinions as to the conformity of such consolidated financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

In performing its oversight role, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 16, Communications with Audit Committees, which supersedes AU380. The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by PCAOB Ethics and Independence Rules 3526, Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence. The Audit Committee has also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm its independence. The independent registered public accounting firm has free access to the Audit Committee to discuss any matters it deems appropriate.

Based on the reports and discussions described in the preceding paragraph, and subject to the limitations on the role and responsibilities of the Audit Committee referred to below and in the Audit Committee Charter in effect during 2019, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

Members of the Audit Committee rely without independent verification on the information provided to them and on the representations made by management and the independent registered public accounting firm. Accordingly, the Audit Committee’s oversight does not provide an independent basis to determine that management has maintained appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or appropriate internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, the Audit Committee’s considerations and discussions referred to above do not assure that the audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements has been carried out in accordance with the auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), that the consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America or that Deloitte & Touche LLP is in fact “independent” or the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls.

PROPOSAL 2:  RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OFINDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee has selected Deloitte & Touche LLP, the member firms of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, and their respective affiliates (collectively, the “Deloitte Entities”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020. This selection is as a result of a process most recently undertaken in 2008 by which the Audit Committee and management solicited and received proposals from and met with and interviewed several other independent registered public accounting firms. The Audit Committee initiated this process after consultation with management because it determined that there were possible benefits to be considered with regard to cost, audit firm independence and obtaining a fresh look at the Company’s financial accounting and internal controls processes. This process was not related to the quality of services provided by the Deloitte Entities. After consideration of each of the proposals, the Audit Committee retained the Deloitte Entities as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and has determined to continue that retention for 2020. As a matter of good corporate governance, the Audit Committee has chosen to submit its selection to stockholders for ratification. In the event that this selection of a registered public accounting firm is not ratified by a majority of the Shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting, the Audit Committee will review its future selection of a registered public accounting firm but will retain all rights of selection.

We expect that representatives of Deloitte Entities will be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement, if they so desire, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Audit Fees

The aggregate fees billed by Deloitte Entities for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 for professional services rendered for the audits of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the reviews of the interim consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and reviews of other filings or registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933 and Securities Exchange Act of 1934 during those fiscal years were $452,000 and $441,000, respectively.

Audit-Related Fees

The aggregate fees billed by Deloitte Entities for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 for professional services rendered that are related to the performance of the audits or reviews of the Company’s consolidated financial statements which are not reported above under “Audit Fees” were $207,000 and $187,000, respectively. “Audit-Related Fees” include fees for stand-alone audits of certain subsidiaries.

Tax Fees

The aggregate fees billed by Deloitte Entities for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 for professional services rendered for tax compliance, advice and planning were $15,000 and $15,000, respectively. “Tax Fees” include fees for tax consultations regarding return preparation and REIT tax law compliance.

All Other Fees

There were no other fees billed by Deloitte Entities for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 for professional services rendered other than those described above.

Pre-approval Policies and Procedures

In May 2003, the Audit Committee established the following policies and procedures for approving all professional services rendered by Deloitte Entities. The Audit Committee generally reviews and approves engagement letters for the services described above under “Audit Fees” before the provision of those services commences. For all other services, the Audit Committee has detailed policies and procedures pursuant to which it has pre-approved the use of Deloitte Entities for specific services for which the Audit Committee has set an aggregate quarterly limit of $50,000 on the amount of services that Deloitte Entities can provide to the Company. Any services not specified that exceed the quarterly limit, or would cause the amount of total other services provided by Deloitte Entities to exceed the quarterly limit, must be approved by the Audit Committee Chairman before the provision of such services commences. The Audit Committee also requires management to provide it with regular quarterly reports of the amount of services provided by Deloitte Entities. Since the adoption of such policies and procedures, all such fees were approved by the Audit Committee in accordance therewith.

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” the ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2020.

PROPOSAL 3:  ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Compensation Discussion and Analysis section appearing earlier in this Proxy Statement describes our executive compensation and the compensation decisions made by the Compensation Committee in 2019 with respect to our Chief Executive Officer and the other officer named in the Summary Compensation Table (who we refer to as the “Named Executive Officers”).  The Board of Directors is asking stockholders to cast a non-binding advisory vote on the following resolution:

Advisory Resolution on Executive Compensation

Proposal: That the stockholders of Alexander’s, Inc. (the “Company”) approve, in a non-binding resolution, the compensation of the Company’s executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (which disclosure includes the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the executive compensation tables and the related footnotes and narrative accompanying the tables).

Supporting Statement:  We describe our executive compensation in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Proxy Statement.  The Board is asking stockholders to support this proposal.  While the advisory vote we are asking you to cast is non-binding, the Compensation Committee and the Board value the views of our stockholders and will take into account the outcome of the vote when considering future compensation decisions for our Named Executive Officers.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the advisory resolution on executive compensation.

The affirmative vote of a majority of all the votes cast on this proposal at the Annual Meeting, assuming a quorum is present, is necessary for approval of this proposal.  Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the result of the vote, although they will count towards the presence of a quorum.  Stockholder approval of this proposal would not be binding upon the Board of Directors.

INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE

To the extent this Proxy Statement is incorporated by reference into any other filing by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, each as amended, the sections entitled “Compensation Committee Report on Executive Compensation” and “Report of the Audit Committee” (to the extent permitted by the rules of the SEC) will not be incorporated unless provided otherwise in such filing.

ADDITIONAL MATTERS TO COME BEFORE THE MEETING

The Board does not intend to present any other matter, nor does it have any information that any other matter will be brought before the Annual Meeting. However, if any other matter properly comes before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the individuals named in the attached proxy to vote said proxy in accordance with their discretion on such matters.

PROXY AUTHORIZATION VIA THE INTERNET OR BY TELEPHONE

The Company has been advised that the Internet and telephone proxy authorization procedures that have been made available are consistent with the requirements of applicable law. Shareholders authorizing their proxies via the Internet or by telephone should understand that there may be costs associated with voting in these manners, such as charges for Internet access providers and telephone companies that must be borne by the shareholder.
