ENERGY STAR ENERGY STAR is a measurement and ver- ification tool administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that promotes energy efficiency across build- ings nationwide. ENERGY STAR scores are a reflection of how efficiently buildings are operated. These scores help us motivate our building operators, property managers, and tenants to pursue capital efficiency projects and implement change. In 2018, we achieved ENERGY STAR labels across 13 million square feet of our portfolio. In Manhattan alone, we represent 9% of all ENERGY STAR labels. In recognition of our operational excellence, SL Green received the prestigious “Partner of the Year—Sustained Excellence” award in both 2018 and 2019. WE REPRESENT 9% OF ALL ENERGY STAR LABELS

LEED LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environ- mental Design) is among the most esteemed and pervasive green building certification programs in the world. Developed by the U.S. Green Building Council in 1993, this desig- nation demonstrates a building owner’s commitment to sustainable operations and resource efficiency. SL Green was among the first owners in the nation to adopt the LEED standard at 100 Park Avenue in 2009. Our current portfolio boasts an impressive 17 million square feet of LEED certified space, representing 85% of our reporting properties (see page 48 for a complete list of reporting properties). WE OWN 17M SQ FEET OF LEED CERTIFIED SPACE

BOMA 360 BOMA’s (Building Owners and Managers Association) 360 Program holistically evaluates all major areas of building facility management, including operations, safety, training, energy, sustainability, and tenant relations. As part of this program, buildings undergo a rigorous assessment, and fewer than 50 buildings in NYC achieve this des- ignation. GRESB (Global Real Estate Sustain- ability Benchmark) recognizes the BOMA 360 building designation as a trusted assessor of sustainability and governance best practices. SL Green currently holds 23 BOMA 360 designations, accounting for 48% of the total achieved in NYC.
