Item 5.03.      Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

 

On December 12, 2007, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of SL Green Realty Corp. (the “Company”) approved an amendment to Article VII of the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, effective as of December 12, 2007, to provide for the issuance and transfer of the Company’s capital stock in uncertificated form. This amendment has been adopted by the Board in response to the NYSE requirement that all listed companies be eligible by January 1, 2008 to participate in the Direct Registration System (the "DRS").  The DRS allows stockholders to own and transact shares in electronic (book-entry) form without the issuance of physical certificates.
