and is a licensed CPA. He resides in Murray Hill, New Jersey.
Commenting on today's news, Mr. Nettina said, "Management of SL Green
wishes to thank Ann for her substantial contributions to the Company over the
past year -- one in which we were able to successfully pursue many key growth
opportunities and solidify our dominant position in the New York City
commercial real estate market. During that time, Ann was instrumental in
helping us to complete the integration of new technology and process programs
which have been, and will continue to be essential to managing our long-term
growth.
"At the same time, we are very pleased to announce Tom's appointment to
the position of Chief Financial Officer. Tom's solid experience in finance,
