Note A Interim Period Reporting

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of 250 West 57th 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 September 30, 2011 and its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 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, notes to financial statements and the other information in the 10-K. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 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 is a New York limited liability company which was organized as a joint venture on May 25, 1953. On September 30, 1953, Registrant acquired fee title to the building known as 250 West 57^th Street (the “Building”), formerly known as the Fisk Building, and the land thereunder located at 250-264 West 57th Street, New York, New York (collectively, the “Property”). On November 30, 2001, Registrant converted to a limited liability company under New York law and is now known as 250 West 57^th 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 future liability to a third party. 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 interests in Registrant (the “Participants”). The Members in Registrant hold senior positions at Malkin Holdings LLC (“Malkin Holdings” or the “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 Lessee. See Note E below.

Note C Lease

Registrant does not operate the Property. Registrant leases the Property to Fisk Building Associates L.L.C. (the “Lessee”) under a long-term net operating lease dated May 1, 1954 (the “Lease”). In 1985, the Participants in Registrant consented to Registrant’s Agents granting Lessee four options to extend the Lease, in each case for an additional twenty-five year renewal period, the last expiring in 2103, all on the same terms as the original lease. The Agents intend to grant such options on behalf of Registrant, subject to Lessee’s compliance with such consents. Such options have been granted by the Agents and exercised by Lessee as to (a) the first renewal period from October 1, 2003 through September 30, 2028, and (b) the second renewal period from October 1, 2028 through September 30, 2053. The Participants in Registrant have consented to the granting of options to the Lessee to extend the lease for two additional 25-year renewal terms expiring in 2103. Lessee is a New York limited liability company whose members consist of, among others, Anthony E. Malkin and entities for the benefit of members of Peter L. Malkin’s and Anthony E. Malkin’s family.

Under the Lease, effective May 1, 1975, between Registrant and Lessee, basic annual rent (“Basic Rent”) was equal to mortgage principal and interest payments plus $28,000 for partial payment to Malkin Holdings for supervisory services. The lease modification dated November 17, 2000, and as further modified, between Registrant and Lessee provides that Basic Rent will be equal to the sum of $28,000 plus the installment payments for interest and amortization (not including any balloon payment due at maturity) currently payable on all mortgages. Basic Rent is payable in monthly installments on the first day of each calendar month in an amount equal to $2,333.33 plus the projected debt service due on the mortgages on the first day of the ensuing calendar month (with a reconciliation to be made as soon as practicable thereafter). Basic Rent shall be adjusted on a dollar-for-dollar basis by changes in the annual debt service on the mortgages. See Note D.

Lessee is required to make a monthly payment to Registrant, as an advance against primary overage rent (“Primary Overage Rent”), of an amount equal to its operating profit for its previous lease year in the maximum amount of $752,000 per annum. Lessee currently advances $752,000 each year, which is recorded in revenues in monthly installments of $62,667 and permits Registrant to make regular monthly distributions at 20% per annum on the Participants’ remaining original cash investment (which remaining cash investment at September 30, 2011, was equal to the participants’ original cash investment of $3,600,000) and to pay $1,667 monthly to Supervisor as an advance of the additional payment (the “Additional Payment”).

Lessee is also required to make an annual payment to Registrant of secondary overage rent (“Secondary Overage Rent”) subsequent to September 30^th of the amount representing 50% of the excess of the net operating profit (as defined) of the Lessee for the lease year ending September 30^th over the Primary Overage Rent of $752,000, less the amount representing interest earned and retained by Registrant on funds borrowed for the building improvement program described below. It is not practical to estimate Secondary Overage Rent for the lease year ending on September 30^th which would be allocable to the first nine months of the lease year until the Lessee, pursuant to the Lease, renders to Registrant a report on the operation of the Property. Registrant recognizes Secondary Overage Rent when earned from the Lessee, at the close of the lease year ending September 30^thand records such amount in revenue in the three months ended September 30th.

For the lease year ended September 30, 2011, Lessee reported net operating profit of $9,452,901 after deduction of Basic Rent. Lessee paid Primary Overage Rent of $752,000 for that lease year prior to September 30, 2011 and Secondary Overage Rent of $4,350,339 subsequent to September 30, 2011. The Secondary Overage Rent of $4,350,339 represents 50% of the excess of the Lessee’s net operating profit of $9,452,901 over $752,000, less $111 representing interest earned and retained by Registrant on funds borrowed for the improvement program. As a result, the Secondary Overage Rent paid by the Lessee subsequent to September 30, 2011 of $4,350,339 plus $111 of interest income was available for distribution by the Registrant to the Participants. After deducting $1,500,000 for general contingencies, the Additional Payment to Supervisor of $284,745 (Note E) and New York State filing fees of $3,000, the balance of $2,847,449 was distributed by Registrant to the Participants on December 14, 2011.

As a result of its revenue recognition policy, rental income for the year ending December 31 includes the advances of Primary Overage Rent received from October 1 to December 31, but does not include any portion of Secondary Overage Rent based on the Lessee’s operations during that period.

The Supervisor of the Registrant has filed a registration statement on Form S-4 for the solicitation of consents of the Participants in the Registrant and other public limited liability companies supervised by the Supervisor to a consolidation transaction. In such consolidation, (x) the property interests of the Registrant, such other public limited liability companies and certain private entities supervised by the Supervisor, and (y) the Supervisor and certain affiliated management companies will be contributed to the operating partnership of a newly organized publicly traded real estate investment trust.

Consents are required from Participants in the Registrant and such other public limited liability companies for them to contribute their interests in the consolidation, and the solicitation of such consents will not commence until the SEC declares effective the registration statement on Form S-4. Consents have been obtained from participants in the private entities and the Supervisor and certain affiliated companies and affiliates of the Supervisor for them to make such contribution.

The consideration to be paid to the contributing companies and entities in the consolidation will be allocated in accordance with exchange values determined based on appraisals by an independent third party. Such method of allocation has been approved by the Lessee. Based on the preliminary exchange values, if the consolidation proposal is approved by the Registrant’s Participants, the consideration with respect to the Property will be allocated approximately 50% to the Registrant and 50% to the Lessee, which the Supervisor believes is in accordance with the historical treatment of the Registrant and the Lessee.

Note D Mortgages

On December 29, 2004, a first mortgage (the “First Mortgage”) was placed on the Property in the amount of $30,500,000 with Prudential Insurance Company of America. At closing, $3,000,000 was drawn and the remaining $27,500,000 was drawn during

2005. These draws paid off the pre-existing first mortgage of $15,500,000 with Emigrant Savings Bank on September 1, 2005 and were used to finance capital improvements as needed. The initial draw of $3,000,000 and all subsequent draws required constant equal monthly payments of interest only, at the rate of 5.33% per annum until January 5, 2007. Commencing February 5, 2007 Registrant is required to make monthly payments of $184,213 applied to interest and principal calculated on a 25-year amortization schedule. The balance of the First Mortgage is $27,408,739 at September 30, 2011. The First Mortgage matures on January 5, 2015 when the principal balance will be $24,754,972. The First Mortgage 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 First Mortgage is paid in full during the last 90 days of the term.

On May 25, 2006, a second mortgage (the “Second Mortgage”) was placed on the Property in the amount of $12,410,000 with Prudential Insurance Company of America. $2,100,000 was drawn at closing and $10,310,000 had been drawn as of March 5, 2009. The initial draw of $2,100,000 and all subsequent draws required constant equal monthly payments of interest only, at the rate of 6.13% per annum until March 5, 2009. Commencing April 5, 2009, Registrant is required to make monthly payments of $80,947 applied to interest and principal calculated on a 25- year amortization schedule. The balance of the Second Mortgage is $11,842,191 at September 30, 2011. The Second Mortgage matures on January 5, 2015 when the principal balance will be $10,961,870. The Second Mortgage 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 Second Mortgage is paid in full during the last 60 days of the term.

On October 15, 2009, Registrant closed on a $21,000,000 line of credit from Signature Bank secured by a mortgage on the Property, subordinate to the existing senior mortgage debt held by Prudential Insurance Company of America in the original amount of $42,910,000, and to be used for capital improvements. $934,616 was drawn at closing and is the balance at September 30, 2011. The new loan requires payments of interest only and is co-terminus with the existing senior mortgage debt. Interest on the new loan is at a floating rate of prime plus 1.0% with a floor of 6.50% per annum unless Registrant elects to fix the rate on the floating rate balance, in minimum increments of $5,000,000, for the then-remaining loan term. Registrant has two options to fix the then floating rate balance. Such fixed rate shall be (a) 300 basis points over the Treasury Bill rate with a floor of 6.50% per annum or (b) if Registrant then chooses to eliminate any loan prepayment penalty, 325 basis points over the Treasury Bill rate with a floor of 6.75% per annum.

The estimated fair value of Registrant’s mortgage debt based on available market information is approximately $41,091,829 as of September 30, 2011. The fair value of borrowings is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar borrowings could be made by us.

In 1999, the Participants in Registrant and the members in Lessee consented to a building improvement program (the “Program”) estimated to cost approximately $12,200,000. In 2004, the Participants and Lessee approved an increase in the Program from $12,200,000 to approximately $31,400,000 under substantially the same conditions as had previously been approved. To induce the Lessee to approve the Program, Registrant’s Participants authorized a grant to the Lessee, upon completion of the Program, of the right to further extensions of the Lease beyond 2103, based on the net present benefit to Registrant of the improvements made.

The Program for improvements was further increased in 2006 from $31,400,000 to up to $82,300,000, again on the basis that such increase would allow a further extension of the Lease based on the net present benefit to Registrant of the improvements made. The Participants in Registrant and the members in Lessee have approved increasing the financing from the total of $42,910,000 provided by the First and Second Mortgages to up to $63,900,000. As of September 30, 2011, Registrant had incurred or accrued costs related to the improvement program of $42,089,929 and estimated that costs upon completion will be approximately $82,300,000. The balance of the costs of the Program will be financed primarily by the additional borrowings available under the $21,000,000 previously approved loan that closed on October 15, 2009 and Lessee’s operating cash flow.

Note E Supervisory Services

Registrant pays Supervisor for supervisory services and disbursements. The basic fee (the “Basic Payment”) has been payable at the rate of $40,000 per annum, payable $3,333 per month, since the fiscal year ended September 30, 1980. The Basic Payment was increased, with the approval of the Agents, by an amount equal to the increase in the Consumer Price Index since such date, resulting in an increase in the Basic Payment to $102,000 per annum effective July 1, 2010. The Basic Payment 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 $2,333 per month, (ii) an additional $1,000 per month out of Primary Overage Rent payment and (iii) the balance out of available reserves from Secondary Overage Rent. Any deficiency in the portion of the fee payable from Primary or Secondary Overage Rent shall be payable out of Secondary Overage Rent in the next year in which Secondary Overage Rent is sufficient. 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.

Registrant pays Supervisor an Additional Payment equal to 10% of all distributions to Participants in any year in excess of the amount representing a return to them at the rate 15% per annum on their remaining cash investment in Registrant (which remaining cash investment at September 30, 2011 was equal to the Participants’ original cash investment of $3,600,000). 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 distributions.

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, 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 also pays Supervisor for other services at hourly rates. Pursuant to the fee arrangements described herein, Registrant incurred supervisory service fees of $92,425 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011. No remuneration was paid during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 by Registrant to either of the Members.

Reference is made to Note C above for a description of the terms of the Lease between Registrant and Lessee. The respective interests of the Members in Registrant and in Lessee arise solely from ownership of their respective Participations in Registrant and Anthony E. Malkin’s participating interest in Lessee and Peter L. Malkin and Anthony E. Malkin’s family entities ownership of member interests 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

Registrant has drawn down additional loan proceeds of $5,000,000 from the $21,000,000 line of credit with Signature Bank on December 22, 2011.

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 anticipated in the forward looking statements. 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 solely for the purpose of owning the Property subject to a net operating lease of the Property held by Lessee. Registrant is required to pay, from Basic Rent under the Lease, the charges on the First and Second mortgages and the line of credit and amounts for supervisory services. Registrant is required to pay from Primary Overage Rent and Secondary Overage Rent the Additional Payment to Supervisor, other expenses and then to distribute the balance of such Overage Rent less any additions to reserves to the Participants. See Note E to the condensed financial statements. Pursuant to the Lease, Lessee has assumed responsibility for the condition, operation, repair, maintenance and management of the Property. Accordingly, Registrant need not 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 amounts of Primary Overage Rent and Secondary Overage Rent are affected by the New York City economy and real estate rental market, which is difficult for management to forecast.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, Registrant made regular monthly distributions of $83.33 for each $5,000 Participation ($1,000 per annum for each $5,000 participation). There are no restrictions on Registrant’s present or future ability to make distributions; however, the amount of such distributions depends on the ability of Lessee to make monthly payments of Basic Rent, Primary Overage Rent, and Secondary Overage Rent to Registrant in accordance with the terms of the Lease. Registrant expects to make distributions so long as it receives the payments provided for under the Lease.

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

Total revenues decreased for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year. Such decrease was the result of a decrease in Secondary Overage Rent income payable by the Lessee due to lower income of the Lessee following lower lease termination income in 2011 as compared with 2010 partially offset by lower expenditures for improvements and tenanting costs and an increase in interest and dividend income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year.

Total revenues decreased for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year. Such decrease was the result of a decrease in Secondary Overage Rent income payable by the Lessee due to lower income of the Lessee following lower lease termination income in 2011 as compared with 2010 partially offset by lower expenditures for improvements and tenanting costs and a decrease in interest and dividend income for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year.

Total expenses increased for the nine month period ended September 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, a decrease in the additional payment to Supervisor, an increase in depreciation of building and tenant improvements attributable to an increase in depreciable assets placed in service, an increase in professional fees due to the fact that accounting fees now paid by Registrant were previously paid by Supervisor and an increase in fees to Malkin Holdings for services rendered in connection with certain matters regarding ownership and operation of 250 West 57th St. for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year.

Total expenses increased for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year. Such increase for the three month period 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, a decrease in the additional payment to Supervisor, an increase in depreciation of building and tenant improvements attributable to an increase in depreciable assets placed in service, an increase in professional fees due to the fact that accounting fees now paid by Registrant were previously paid by Supervisor and an increase in fees to Malkin Holdings for services rendered in connection with certain matters regarding ownership and operation of 250 West 57th St. for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Registrant’s liquidity has not changed significantly at September 30, 2011 as compared with December 31, 2010. Registrant may from time to time set aside cash for general contingencies. Recent adverse developments in economic, credit and investment markets over the last several 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 February 5, 2007, calculated on a 25-year amortization schedule. Amortization payments under the Second Mortgage commenced April 5, 2009, calculated on a 25-year amortization schedule. The First and the Second Mortgages mature on January 5, 2015. The line of credit requires payment of interest only and also matures on January 5, 2015. Registrant does not maintain any reserve to cover the payment of such mortgage indebtedness at maturity. Therefore, repayment of mortgage debt 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 senior mortgage debt and the line of credit balances at maturity.

Registrant anticipates that funds for short-term working capital requirements for the Property will be provided by cash on hand, approximately $20,000,000 available to be drawn on the line of credit from Signature Bank, and rental payments received from the Lessee. Long-term sources of working capital will be provided by rental payments received from the 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

The Members in Registrant do not hold any Participations in their individual capacities.

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

Entities for the benefit of members of Peter L. Malkin’s family owned of record and beneficially $167,500 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 Peter L. Malkin.

Peter L. Malkin owned of record as trustee, but not beneficially, $17,500 of Participations. Peter L. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such Participations.

Anthony E. Malkin owned of record as trustee, but not beneficially, $10,000 of Participations. Anthony E. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such Participations.

Item 4.

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 September 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 and Mr. Malkin. Malkin Holdings 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.
