PART I

ITEM 1.        BUSINESS

GENERAL
Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), is a fully-integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns and operates a real estate portfolio comprised predominantly of Class A office and office/flex properties located primarily in the Northeast.  The Company performs substantially all commercial real estate leasing, management, acquisition, development and construction services on an in-house basis.  Mack-Cali Realty Corporation was incorporated on May 24, 1994.  The Company’s executive offices are located at 343 Thornall Street, Edison, New Jersey 08837-2206, and its telephone number is (732) 590-1000.  The Company has an internet website at www.mack-cali.com.

As of December 31, 2011, the Company owned or had interests in 278 properties, aggregating approximately 32.4 million square feet, plus developable land (collectively, the “Properties”), which are leased to over 2,000 tenants.  The Properties are comprised of: (a) 269  wholly-owned or Company-controlled properties consisting of 163 office buildings and 95 office/flex buildings aggregating approximately 30.8 million square feet, six industrial/warehouse buildings totaling approximately 387,400 square feet, two stand-alone retail properties totaling approximately 17,300 square feet, and three land leases (collectively, the “Consolidated Properties”); and (b) eight buildings, which are primarily office properties, aggregating approximately 1.2 million square feet, and a 350-room hotel, which are owned by unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company has investment interests.  Unless otherwise indicated, all references to square feet represent net rentable area.  As of December 31, 2011, the office, office/flex, industrial/warehouse and stand-alone retail properties included in the Consolidated Properties were 88.3 percent leased.  Percentage leased includes all leases in effect as of the period end date, some of which have commencement dates in the future, and leases that expire at the period end date.  Leases that expire as of December 31, 2011 aggregate 193,213 square feet, or 0.6 percent of the net rentable square footage.  The Properties are located in five states, primarily in the Northeast, and the District of Columbia.  See Item 2: Properties.

The Company’s strategy has been to focus its operations, acquisition and development of office properties in high-barrier-to-entry markets and sub-markets where it believes it is, or can become, a significant and preferred owner and operator.  The Company plans to continue this strategy by expanding through acquisitions and/or development in Northeast markets where it has, or can achieve, similar status.  The Company believes that its Properties have excellent locations and access and are well-maintained and professionally managed.  As a result, the Company believes that its Properties attract high quality tenants and achieve among the highest rental, occupancy and tenant retention rates within their markets.  The Company also believes that its extensive market knowledge provides it with a significant competitive advantage, which is further enhanced by its strong reputation for, and emphasis on, delivering highly responsive, professional management services.  See “Business Strategies.”

As of December 31, 2011, executive officers and directors of the Company and their affiliates owned approximately six percent of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock (including Units redeemable into shares of Common Stock).  As used herein, the term “Units” refers to limited partnership interests in Mack-Cali Realty, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) through which the Company conducts its real estate activities.  The Company’s executive officers have been employed by the Company and/or its predecessor companies for an average of approximately 24 years.

BUSINESS STRATEGIES
Operations
Reputation: The Company has established a reputation as a highly-regarded landlord with an emphasis on delivering quality tenant services in buildings it owns and/or manages.  The Company believes that its continued success depends in part on enhancing its reputation as an operator of choice, which will facilitate the retention of current tenants and the attraction of new tenants.  The Company believes it provides a superior level of service to its tenants, which should in turn, allow the Company to outperform the market with respect to occupancy rates, as well as improve tenant retention.

Communication with tenants: The Company emphasizes frequent communication with tenants to ensure first-class service to the Properties.  Property management personnel generally are located on site at the Properties to provide convenient access to management and to ensure that the Properties are well-maintained.  Property management’s primary responsibility is to ensure that buildings are operated at peak efficiency in order to meet both the Company’s and tenants’ needs and expectations.  Property management personnel additionally budget and oversee capital improvements and building system upgrades to enhance the Properties’ competitive advantages in their respective markets and to maintain the quality of the Properties.

Additionally, the Company’s in-house leasing representatives develop and maintain long-term relationships with the Company’s diverse tenant base and coordinate leasing, expansion, relocation and build-to-suit opportunities within the Company’s portfolio.  This approach allows the Company to offer office space in the appropriate size and location to current or prospective tenants in any of its sub-markets.

Portfolio Management: The Company plans to continue to own and operate a portfolio of properties in high-barrier-to-entry markets, with a primary focus in the Northeast.  The Company’s primary objectives are to maximize operating cash flow and to enhance the value of its portfolio through effective management, acquisition, development and property sales strategies, as follows:

The Company seeks to maximize the value of its existing portfolio through implementing operating strategies designed to produce the highest effective rental and occupancy rates and lowest tenant installation cost within the markets that it operates, and further within the parameters of those markets.  The Company continues to pursue internal growth through leasing vacant space, re-leasing space at higher effective rents with contractual rent increases and developing or redeveloping space for its diverse base of high credit tenants, including Wyndham Worldwide, National Union Fire Insurance and The United States of America - GSA.  In addition, the Company seeks economies of scale through volume discounts to take advantage of its size and dominance in particular sub-markets, and operating efficiencies through the use of in-house management, leasing, marketing, financing, accounting, legal, development and construction services.

Acquisitions: The Company also believes that growth opportunities exist through acquiring operating properties or properties for redevelopment with attractive returns in its core Northeast sub-markets where, based on its expertise in leasing, managing and operating properties, it believes it is, or can become, a significant and preferred owner and operator.  The Company intends either directly or through joint ventures to acquire, invest in or redevelop additional properties that: (i) are expected to provide attractive initial yields with potential for growth in cash flow from operations; (ii) are well-located, of high quality and competitive in their respective sub-markets; (iii) are located in its existing sub-markets or in sub-markets in which the Company can become a significant and preferred owner and operator; and (iv) it believes have been under-managed or are otherwise capable of improved performance through intensive management, capital improvements and/or leasing that should result in increased effective rental and occupancy rates.

Development: The Company seeks to selectively develop additional properties either directly or through joint ventures where it believes such development will result in a favorable risk-adjusted return on investment in coordination with the above operating strategies.  Such development primarily will occur: (i) when leases have been executed prior to construction; (ii) in stable core Northeast sub-markets where the demand for such space exceeds available supply; and (iii) where the Company is, or can become, a significant and preferred owner and operator.

Property Sales: While management’s principal intention is to own and operate its properties on a long-term basis, it periodically assesses the attributes of each of its properties, with a particular focus on the supply and demand fundamentals of the sub-markets in which they are located.  Based on these ongoing assessments, the Company may, from time to time, decide to sell any of its properties.

Financial
The Company currently intends to maintain a ratio of debt-to-undepreciated assets (total debt of the Company as a percentage of total undepreciated assets) of 50 percent or less, however there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in maintaining this ratio.  As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company’s total debt constituted approximately 33.6 percent and 37.0 percent of total undepreciated assets of the Company, respectively.  Although there is no limit in the Company’s organizational documents on the amount of indebtedness that the Company may incur, the Company has entered into certain financial agreements which contain covenants that limit the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness under certain circumstances.  The Company intends to utilize the most appropriate sources of capital for future acquisitions, development, capital improvements and other investments, which may include funds from operating activities, proceeds from property and land sales, short-term and long-term borrowings (including draws on the Company’s revolving credit facility), and the issuance of additional debt or equity securities.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2011, the Company had approximately 379 full-time employees.

COMPETITION

The leasing of real estate is highly competitive.  The Properties compete for tenants with lessors and developers of similar properties located in their respective markets primarily on the basis of location, the quality of properties, leasing terms (including rent and other charges and allowances for tenant improvements), services provided, the design and condition of the Properties, and reputation as an owner and operator of quality office properties in the relevant market.  The Company also experiences competition when attempting to acquire or dispose of real estate, including competition from domestic and foreign financial institutions, other REITs, life insurance companies, pension trusts, trust funds, partnerships, individual investors and others.

REGULATIONS

Many laws and governmental regulations apply to the ownership and/or operation of the Properties and changes in these laws and regulations, or their interpretation by agencies and the courts, occur frequently.

Under various laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, an owner of real estate may be held liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances located on or in the property.  These laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner was responsible for, or even knew of, the presence of such substances.  The presence of such substances may adversely affect the owner’s ability to rent or sell the property or to borrow using such property as collateral and may expose it to liability resulting from any release of, or exposure to, such substances.  Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances at another location may also be liable for the costs of re­moval or remediation of such substances at the disposal or treatment facility, whether or not such facility is owned or operated by such person.  Certain environmental laws impose liability for the release of asbestos-containing materials into the air, and third parties may also seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury associated with asbestos-containing materials and other hazardous or toxic substances.

In connection with the ownership (direct or indirect), operation, management and development of real properties, the Company may be considered an owner or operator of such properties or as having arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances and, therefore, potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as certain other related costs, including governmental penalties and injuries to persons and property.

There can be no assurance that (i) future laws, ordinances or regulations will not impose any material environmental liability, (ii) the current environmental condition of the Properties will not be affected by tenants, by the condition of land or operations in the vicinity of the Properties (such as the presence of underground storage tanks), or by third parties unrelated to the Company, or (iii) the Company’s assessments reveal all environmental liabilities and that there are no material environmental liabilities of which the Company is aware.  If compliance with the various laws and regulations, now existing or hereafter adopted, exceeds the Company’s budgets for such items, the Company’s ability to make expected distributions to stockholders could be adversely affected.

There are no other laws or regulations which have a material effect on the Company’s operations, other than typical federal, state and local laws affecting the development and operation of real property, such as zoning laws.

INDUSTRY SEGMENTS

The Company operates in two industry segments:  (i) real estate; and (ii) construction services.  As of December 31, 2011, the Company does not have any foreign operations and its business is not seasonal.  Please see our financial statements attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein for financial information relating to our industry segments.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

On May 1, 2011, the Company placed in service 55 Corporate Drive, a 204,057 square-foot office building located in Bridgewater, New Jersey. The Company incurred total costs on the project of approximately $48.1 million through December 31, 2011.

In August 2011, the Company commenced construction of a 203,000 square foot office building which is pre-leased for 15 years and three months, subject to two extension options of between five and 10 years each, to Wyndham Worldwide.  Wyndham currently leases space in neighboring buildings in the Mack-Cali Business Campus in Parsippany, New Jersey.  The new building is expected to be delivered to the tenant in the first quarter of 2013 at a total estimated cost of approximately $53.5 million.

On December 5, 2011, the Company entered into a development agreement (the “Development Agreement”) with Ironstate Development LLC (“Ironstate”) for the development of up to 2 million square feet of residential space with associated parking and ancillary retail space on land owned by the Company at its Harborside Financial Center complex in Jersey City, New Jersey (the “Harborside Residential Project”).  The first phase of the project is expected to consist of a parking pedestal to support two high-rise towers of approximately 500 apartment units each, and estimated to cost approximately $400 million.  The parties anticipate a fourth quarter 2012 ground breaking and the project will be ready for occupancy within approximately two years thereafter.

Pursuant to the Development Agreement, the Company and Ironstate shall co-develop the Harborside Residential Project with Ironstate responsible for obtaining all required development permits and approvals.  Major decisions with respect to the Harborside Residential Project will require the consent of the Company and Ironstate.  The Company and Ironstate will have 85 and 15 percent interests, respectively, in the Harborside Residential Project.  The Company will receive capital credit of $30 per approved developable square foot for its land.

The Development Agreement is subject to obtaining required approvals and development financing as well as numerous customary undertakings, covenants, obligations and conditions.  The Company has the right to reasonably determine that any phase of the Harborside Residential Project is not economically viable and may elect not to proceed, subject to certain conditions, with no further obligations to Ironstate other than reimbursement to Ironstate of all or a portion of the costs incurred by it to obtain any required approvals.

The Company’s core markets continue to be weak.  The percentage leased in the Company’s consolidated portfolio of stabilized operating properties was 88.3 percent at December 31, 2011, as compared to 89.1 percent at December 31, 2010 and 90.1 percent at December 31, 2009.  Percentage leased includes all leases in effect as of the period end date, some of which have commencement dates in the future and leases that expire at the period end date.  Leases that expired as of December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 aggregate 193,213, 187,058 and 64,672 square feet, respectively, or 0.6, 0.6 and 0.2 percentage of the net rentable square footage, respectively.  The Company believes that vacancy rates may continue to increase in some of its markets through 2012 and possibly beyond.  As a result, the Company’s future earnings and cash flow may continue to be negatively impacted by current market conditions.

The Company expects that the impact of the current state of the economy, including high unemployment, will continue to have a dampening effect on the fundamentals of its business, including lower occupancy and reduced effective rents.  These conditions would negatively affect the Company’s future net income and cash flows and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition.

FINANCING ACTIVITY

On February 18, 2011, the Company completed a public offering of 7,187,500 shares of common stock and used the net proceeds, which totaled approximately $227.4 million (after offering costs) primarily to repay borrowings under the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility.

On October 21, 2011, the Operating Partnership, refinanced its unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of 20 lenders.  The $600 million unsecured facility, which is expandable to $1 billion, carries an interest rate equal to LIBOR plus 125 basis points.  The credit facility, which also carries a facility fee of 25 basis points, has a four-year term with a one-year extension option.  The interest rate and facility fee are subject to adjustment, on a sliding scale, based upon the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings.

On October 28, 2011, the Company redeemed its Series C Preferred Stock at a price of $2,500 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends through the date prior to the redemption date.  The write off of preferred stock issuance costs of $164,000 is included in preferred stock dividends for the year ended December 31, 2011.

our ability to lease or re-lease space at current or anticipated rents;
·  
changes in the supply of and demand for office, office/flex and industrial/warehouse properties;

·  
changes in governmental regulation, tax rates and similar matters; and

For further information on factors which could impact us and the statements contained herein, see Item 1A: Risk Factors. We assume no obligation to update and supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events, new information or otherwise.

ITEM 1A.         RISK FACTORS

Our results from operations and ability to make distributions on our equity and debt service on our indebtedness may be affected by the risk factors set forth below.  All investors should consider the following risk factors before deciding to purchase securities of the Company.  The Company refers to itself as “we” or “our” in the following risk factors.

Adverse economic and geopolitical conditions in general and the Northeastern suburban office markets in particular could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and our ability to pay distributions to you.
Our business may be affected by the continuing volatility in the financial and credit markets, the general global economic conditions, continuing high unemployment, and other market or economic challenges experienced by the U.S. economy or real estate industry as a whole.  Our business also may be adversely affected by local economic conditions, as substantially all of our revenues are derived from our properties located in the Northeast, particularly in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania.  Because our portfolio consists primarily of office and office/flex buildings (as compared to a more diversified real estate portfolio) located principally in the Northeast, if economic conditions persist or deteriorate, then our results of operations, financial condition and ability to service current debt and to pay distributions to our shareholders may be adversely affected by the following, among other potential conditions:

·  
significant job losses in the financial and professional services industries may occur, which may decrease demand for our office space, causing market rental rates and property values to be negatively impacted;
·  
our ability to borrow on terms and conditions that we find acceptable, or at all, may be limited, which could reduce our ability to pursue acquisition and development opportunities and refinance existing debt, reduce our returns from both our existing operations and our acquisition and development activities and increase our future interest expense;
·  
reduced values of our properties may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or to obtain debt financing secured by our properties and may reduce the availability of unsecured loans;
·  
the value and liquidity of our short-term investments and cash deposits could be reduced as a result of a deterioration of the financial condition of the institutions that hold our cash deposits or the institutions or assets in which we have made short-term investments, the dislocation of the markets for our short-term investments, increased volatility in market rates for such investments or other factors;
·  
reduced liquidity in debt markets and increased credit risk premiums for certain market participants may impair our ability to access capital; and
·  
one or more lenders under our line of credit could refuse or be unable to fund their financing commitment to us and we may not be able to replace the financing commitment of any such lenders on favorable terms, or at all.

These conditions, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and ability to pay distributions, may continue or worsen in the future.

Our performance is subject to risks associated with the real estate industry.
General: Our business and our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors depend on the ability of our properties to generate funds in excess of operating expenses (including scheduled principal payments on debt and capital expenditures).  Events or conditions that are beyond our control may adversely affect our operations and the value of our Properties.  Such events or conditions could include:

·  
changes in the general economic climate and conditions;
·  
changes in local conditions, such as an oversupply of office space, a reduction in demand for office space, or reductions in office market rental rates;
 
 
 
 
8

 
 
 
· decreased attractiveness of our properties to tenants;
· competition from other office and office/flex properties;
· our inability to provide adequate maintenance;
·  
increased operating costs, including insurance premiums, utilities and real estate taxes, due to inflation and other factors which may not necessarily be offset by increased rents;
·  
changes in laws and regulations (including tax, environmental, zoning and building codes, and housing laws and regulations) and agency or court interpretations of such laws and regulations and the related costs of compliance;
·  
changes in interest rate levels and the availability of financing;
·  
the inability of a significant number of tenants to pay rent;
·  
our inability to rent office space on favorable terms; and
·  
civil unrest, earthquakes, acts of terrorism and other natural disasters or acts of God that may result in uninsured losses.

We may suffer adverse consequences if our revenues decline since our operating costs do not necessarily decline in proportion to our revenue:  We earn a significant portion of our income from renting our properties. Our operating costs, however, do not necessarily fluctuate in relation to changes in our rental revenue.  This means that our costs will not necessarily decline even if our revenues do.  Our operating costs could also increase while our revenues do not.  If our operating costs increase but our rental revenues do not, we may be forced to borrow to cover our costs and we may incur losses.  Such losses may adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors.

Financially distressed tenants may be unable to pay rent: If a tenant defaults, we may experience delays and incur substantial costs in enforcing our rights as landlord and protecting our investments.  If a tenant files for bankruptcy, a potential court judgment rejecting and terminating such tenant’s lease could adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors as we may be unable to replace the defaulting tenant with a new tenant at a comparable rental rate without incurring significant expenses or a reduction in rental income.

Renewing leases or re-letting space could be costly: If a tenant does not renew its lease upon expiration or terminates its lease early, we may not be able to re-lease the space on favorable terms or at all.  If a tenant does renew its lease or we re-lease the space, the terms of the renewal or new lease, including the cost of required renovations or concessions to the tenant, may be less favorable than the current lease terms, which could adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors.

Adverse developments concerning some of our major tenants and industry concentrations could have a negative impact on our revenue: Recent developments in the general economy and the global credit markets have had a significant adverse effect on many companies in numerous industries.  We have tenants concentrated in various industries that may be experiencing adverse effects of current economic conditions.  Our business could be adversely affected if any of these tenants or any other tenants became insolvent, declared bankruptcy or otherwise refused to pay rent in a timely manner or at all.

Our insurance coverage on our properties may be inadequate or our insurance providers may default on their obligations to pay claims: We currently carry comprehensive insurance on all of our properties, including insurance for liability, fire and flood.  We cannot guarantee that the limits of our current policies will be sufficient in the event of a catastrophe to our properties.  We cannot guarantee that we will be able to renew or duplicate our current insurance coverage in adequate amounts or at reasonable prices.  In addition, while our current insurance policies insure us against loss from terrorist acts and toxic mold, in the future, insurance companies may no longer offer coverage against these types of losses, or, if offered, these types of insurance may be prohibitively expensive.  If any or all of the foregoing should occur, we may not have insurance coverage against certain types of losses and/or there may be decreases in the limits of insurance available.  Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of our insured limits occur, we could lose all or a portion of the capital we have invested in a property or properties, as well as the anticipated future revenue from the property or properties.  Nevertheless, we might remain obligated for any mortgage debt or other financial obligations related to the property or properties.  We cannot guarantee that material losses in excess of insurance proceeds will not occur in the future.  If any of our properties were to experience a catastrophic loss, it could seriously disrupt our operations, delay revenue and result in large expenses to repair or rebuild the property.  Such events could adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors.  If one or more of our insurance providers were to fail to pay a claim as a result of insolvency, bankruptcy or otherwise, the nonpayment of such claims could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.  In addition, if one or more of our insurance providers were to become subject to insolvency, bankruptcy or other proceedings and our insurance policies with the provider were terminated or canceled as a result of those proceedings, we cannot guarantee that we would be able to find alternative coverage in adequate amounts or at reasonable prices.  In such case, we could experience a lapse in any or adequate insurance coverage with respect to one or more properties and be exposed to potential losses relating to any claims that may arise during such period of lapsed or inadequate coverage.

Illiquidity of real estate limits our ability to act quickly: Real estate investments are relatively illiquid.  Such illiquidity may limit our ability to react quickly in response to changes in economic and other conditions.  If we want to sell an investment, we might not be able to dispose of that investment in the time period we desire, and the sales price of that investment might not recoup or exceed the amount of our investment.  The prohibition in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and related regulations on a real estate investment trust holding property for sale also may restrict our ability to sell property.  In addition, we acquired a significant number of our properties from individuals to whom we issued Units as part of the purchase price.  In connection with the acquisition of these properties, in order to preserve such individual’s income tax deferral, we contractually agreed not to sell or otherwise transfer the properties for a specified period of time, except in a manner which does not result in recognition of any built-in-gain (which may result in an income tax liability) or which reimburses the appropriate individuals for the income tax consequences of the recognition of such built-in-gains.  As of December 31, 2011, seven of our properties, with an aggregate net book value of approximately $131.6 million, were subject to these restrictions which expire periodically through 2016.  For those properties where such restrictions have lapsed, we are generally required to use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any sale, transfer or other disposition of the subject properties from resulting in the recognition of built-in gain to the appropriate individuals.  129 of our properties, with an aggregate net book value of approximately $1.7 billion, have lapsed restrictions and are subject to these conditions.  The above limitations on our ability to sell our investments could adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors.

Americans with Disabilities Act compliance could be costly: Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (“ADA”), all public accommodations and commercial facilities must meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons.  Compliance with the ADA requirements could involve removal of structural barriers from certain disabled persons’ entrances.  Other federal, state and local laws may require modifications to or restrict further renovations of our properties with respect to such accesses.  Although we believe that our properties are substantially in compliance with present requirements, noncompliance with the ADA or related laws or regulations could result in the United States government imposing fines or private litigants being awarded damages against us.  Such costs may adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors.

Environmental problems are possible and may be costly: Various federal, state and local laws and regulations subject property owners or operators to liability for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances located on or in the property.  These laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator was responsible for or even knew of the presence of such substances.  The presence of or failure to properly remediate hazardous or toxic substances (such as toxic mold) may adversely affect our ability to rent, sell or borrow against contaminated property and may impose liability upon us for personal injury to persons exposed to such substances.  Various laws and regulations also impose liability on persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances at another location for the costs of removal or remediation of such substances at the disposal or treatment facility.  These laws often impose liability whether or not the person arranging for such disposal ever owned or operated the disposal facility.  Certain other environmental laws and regulations impose liability on owners or operators of property for injuries relating to the release of asbestos-containing or other materials into the air, water or otherwise into the environment.  As owners and operators of property and as potential arrangers for hazardous substance disposal, we may be liable under such laws and regulations for removal or remediation costs, governmental penalties, property damage, personal injuries and related expenses.  Payment of such costs and expenses could adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors.

We face risks associated with property acquisitions: We have acquired in the past, and our long-term strategy is to continue to pursue the acquisition of properties and portfolios of properties in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania and in the Northeast generally, including large real estate portfolios that could increase our size and result in alterations to our capital structure.  We may be competing for investment opportunities with entities that have greater financial resources.  Several office building developers and real estate companies may compete with us in seeking properties for acquisition, land for development and prospective tenants. Such competition may adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors by:
 
 
 
10

 

 
·  
reducing the number of suitable investment opportunities offered to us;
·  
increasing the bargaining power of property owners;
·  
interfering with our ability to attract and retain tenants;
·  
increasing vacancies which lowers market rental rates and limits our ability to negotiate rental rates; and/or
·  
adversely affecting our ability to minimize expenses of operation.

Our acquisition activities and their success are subject to the following risks:

·  
adequate financing to complete acquisitions may not be available on favorable terms or at all as a result of the continuing volatility in the financial and credit markets;
·  
even if we enter into an acquisition agreement for a property, we may be unable to complete that acquisition and risk the loss of certain non-refundable deposits and incurring certain other acquisition-related costs;
·  
the actual costs of repositioning or redeveloping acquired properties may be greater than our estimates;
·  
any acquisition agreement will likely contain conditions to closing, including completion of due diligence investigations to our satisfaction or other conditions that are not within our control, which may not be satisfied; and
·  
we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties, into our existing operations, and acquired properties may fail to perform as expected; which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

New acquisitions may fail to perform as expected: We may acquire new office properties, assuming that we are able to obtain capital on favorable terms.  Such newly acquired properties may not perform as expected and may subject us to unknown liability with respect to liabilities relating to such properties for clean-up of undisclosed environmental contamination or claims by tenants, vendors or other persons against the former owners of the properties.  Inaccurate assumptions regarding future rental or occupancy rates could result in overly optimistic estimates of future revenues.  In addition, future operating expenses or the costs necessary to bring an acquired property up to standards established for its intended market position may be underestimated.

Development of real estate could be costly: As part of our operating strategy, we may acquire land for development or construct on owned land, under certain conditions.  Included among the risks of the real estate development business are the following, which may adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors:

·  
financing for development projects may not be available on favorable terms;
·  
long-term financing may not be available upon completion of construction;
·  
failure to complete construction on schedule or within budget may increase debt service expense and construction costs; and
·  
failure to rent the development at all or at rent levels originally contemplated.

Property ownership through joint ventures could subject us to the contrary business objectives of our co-venturers: We, from time to time, invest in joint ventures or partnerships in which we do not hold a controlling interest in the assets underlying the entities in which we invest, including joint ventures in which (i) we own a direct interest in an entity which controls such assets, or (ii) we own a direct interest in an entity which owns indirect interests, through one or more intermediaries, of such assets.  These investments involve risks that do not exist with properties in which we own a controlling interest with respect to the underlying assets, including the possibility that our co-venturers or partners may, at any time, have business, economic or other objectives that are inconsistent with our objectives.  Because we lack a controlling interest, our co-venturers or partners may be in a position to take action contrary to our instructions or requests or contrary to our policies or objectives.  While we seek protective rights against such contrary actions, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in procuring any such protective rights, or if procured, that the rights will be sufficient to fully protect us against contrary actions.  Our organizational documents do not limit the amount of available funds that we may invest in joint ventures or partnerships.  If the objectives of our co-venturers or partners are inconsistent with ours, it may adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors.
 
 
 
11

 

 
Our real estate construction management activities are subject to risks particular to third-party construction projects.
As we may perform fixed price construction services for third parties, we are subject to a variety of risks unique to these activities.  If construction costs of a project exceed original estimates, such costs may have to be absorbed by us, thereby making the project less profitable than originally estimated, or possibly not profitable at all.  In addition, a construction project may be delayed due to government or regulatory approvals, supply shortages, or other events and circumstances beyond our control, or the time required to complete a construction project may be greater than originally anticipated.  If any such excess costs or project delays were to be material, such events may adversely effect our cash flow and liquidity and thereby impact our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors.

We face possible risks associated with the physical effects of climate change.
We cannot predict with certainty whether climate change is occurring and, if so, at what rate.  However, the physical effects of climate change could have a material adverse effect on our properties, operations and business.  For example, many of our properties are located along the East coast, particularly those in New Jersey, New York and Connecticut.  To the extent climate change causes changes in weather patterns, our markets could experience increases in storm intensity and rising sea-levels.  Over time, these conditions could result in declining demand for office space in our buildings or the inability of us to operate the buildings at all.  Climate change may also have indirect effects on our business by increasing the cost of (or making unavailable) property insurance on terms we find acceptable, increasing the cost of energy and increasing the cost of snow removal or related costs at our properties.  Proposed legislation to address climate change could increase utility and other costs of operating our properties which, if not offset by rising rental income, would reduce our net income.  There can be no assurance that climate change will not have a material adverse effect on our properties, operations or business.

Debt financing could adversely affect our economic performance.
Scheduled debt payments and refinancing could adversely affect our financial condition: We are subject to the risks normally associated with debt financing.  These risks, including the following, may adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors:

·  
our cash flow may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest;
·  
payments of principal and interest on borrowings may leave us with insufficient cash resources to pay operating expenses;
·  
we may not be able to refinance indebtedness on our properties at maturity; and
·  
if refinanced, the terms of refinancing may not be as favorable as the original terms of the related indebtedness.

As of December 31, 2011, we had total outstanding indebtedness of $1.9 billion comprised of $1.1 billion of senior unsecured notes, outstanding borrowings of $56 million under our $600 million revolving credit facility and approximately $739 million of mortgages, loans payable and other obligations.  We may have to refinance the principal due on our current or future indebtedness at maturity, and we may not be able to do so.

If we are unable to refinance our indebtedness on acceptable terms, or at all, events or conditions that may adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors include the following:

·  
we may need to dispose of one or more of our properties upon disadvantageous terms;
·  
prevailing interest rates or other factors at the time of refinancing could increase interest rates and, therefore, our interest expense;
·  
we may be subject to an event of default pursuant to covenants for our indebtedness;
·  
if we mortgage property to secure payment of indebtedness and are unable to meet mortgage payments, the mortgagee could foreclose upon such property or appoint a receiver to receive an assignment of our rents and leases; and
·  
foreclosures upon mortgaged property could create taxable income without accompanying cash proceeds and, therefore, hinder our ability to meet the real estate investment trust distribution requirements of the Code.
 
 
 
12

 
 

 
We are obligated to comply with financial covenants in our indebtedness that could restrict our range of operating activities: The mortgages on our properties contain customary negative covenants, including limitations on our ability, without the prior consent of the lender, to further mortgage the property, to enter into new leases outside of stipulated guidelines or to materially modify existing leases.  In addition, our revolving credit facility contains customary requirements, including restrictions and other limitations on our ability to incur debt, debt to assets ratios, secured debt to total assets ratios, interest coverage ratios and minimum ratios of unencumbered assets to unsecured debt.  The indentures under which our senior unsecured debt have been issued contain financial and operating covenants including coverage ratios and limitations on our ability to incur secured and unsecured debt.  These covenants limit our flexibility in conducting our operations and create a risk of default on our indebtedness if we cannot continue to satisfy them.  Some of our debt instruments are cross-collateralized and contain cross default provisions with other debt instruments.  Due to this cross-collateralization, a failure or default with respect to certain debt instruments or properties could have an adverse impact on us or our properties that are subject to the cross-collateralization under the applicable debt instrument.  Failure to comply with these covenants could cause a default under the agreements and, in certain circumstances, our lenders may be entitled to accelerate our debt obligations.  Defaults under our debt agreements could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Rising interest rates may adversely affect our cash flow: As of December 31, 2011, outstanding borrowings of approximately $56 million under our revolving credit facility and approximately $11 million of our mortgage indebtedness bear interest at variable rates.  We may incur additional indebtedness in the future that bears interest at variable rates.  Variable rate debt creates higher debt service requirements if market interest rates increase.  Higher debt service requirements could adversely affect our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors and/or cause us to default under certain debt covenants.

Our degree of leverage could adversely affect our cash flow: We fund acquisition opportunities and development partially through short-term borrowings (including our revolving credit facility), as well as from proceeds from property sales and undistributed cash.  We expect to refinance projects purchased with short-term debt either with long-term indebtedness or equity financing depending upon the economic conditions at the time of refinancing.  Our Board of Directors has a general policy of limiting the ratio of our indebtedness to total undepreciated assets (total debt as a percentage of total undepreciated assets) to 50 percent or less, although there is no limit in Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.’s or our organizational documents on the amount of indebtedness that we may incur.  However, we have entered into certain financial agreements which contain financial and operating covenants that limit our ability under certain circumstances to incur additional secured and unsecured indebtedness.  The Board of Directors could alter or eliminate its current policy on borrowing at any time at its discretion.  If this policy were changed, we could become more highly leveraged, resulting in an increase in debt service that could adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors and/or could cause an increased risk of default on our obligations.

We are dependent on external sources of capital for future growth: To qualify as a real estate investment trust under the Code, we must distribute to our shareholders each year at least 90 percent of our net taxable income, excluding any net capital gain. Because of this distribution requirement, it is not likely that we will be able to fund all future capital needs, including for acquisitions and developments, from income from operations.  Therefore, we will have to rely on third-party sources of capital, which may or may not be available on favorable terms or at all.  Our access to third-party sources of capital depends on a number of things, including the market’s perception of our growth potential and our current and potential future earnings.  Moreover, additional equity offerings may result in substantial dilution of our shareholders’ interests, and additional debt financing may substantially increase our leverage.

Competition for skilled personnel could increase our labor costs.
We compete with various other companies in attracting and retaining qualified and skilled personnel.  We depend on our ability to attract and retain skilled management personnel who are responsible for the day-to-day operations of our company.  Competitive pressures may require that we enhance our pay and benefits package to compete effectively for such personnel.  We may not be able to offset such added costs by increasing the rates we charge our tenants.  If there is an increase in these costs or if we fail to attract and retain qualified and skilled personnel, our business and operating results could be harmed.

 
13

 

We are dependent on our key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed.
We are dependent upon our executive officers for strategic business direction and real estate experience.  While we believe that we could find replacements for these key personnel, loss of their services could adversely affect our operations.  We have entered into an employment agreement (including non-competition provisions) which provides for a continuous four-year employment term with each of Mitchell E. Hersh, Barry Lefkowitz and Roger W. Thomas.  We do not have key man life insurance for our executive officers.

Certain provisions of Maryland law and our charter and bylaws could hinder, delay or prevent changes in control.
Certain provisions of Maryland law, our charter and our bylaws have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing transactions that involve an actual or threatened change in control.  These provisions include the following:

Classified Board of Directors: Our Board of Directors is divided into three classes with staggered terms of office of three years each.  The classification and staggered terms of office of our directors make it more difficult for a third party to gain control of our board of directors.  At least two annual meetings of stockholders, instead of one, generally would be required to affect a change in a majority of the board of directors.

Removal of Directors: Under our charter, subject to the rights of one or more classes or series of preferred stock to elect one or more directors, a director may be removed only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all votes entitled to be cast by our stockholders generally in the election of directors.  Neither the Maryland General Corporation Law nor our charter define the term “cause.”  As a result, removal for “cause” is subject to Maryland common law and to judicial interpretation and review in the context of the facts and circumstances of any particular situation.

Number of Directors, Board Vacancies, Terms of Office: We have, in our bylaws, elected to be subject to certain provisions of Maryland law which vest in the Board of Directors the exclusive right to determine the number of directors and the exclusive right, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors, even if the remaining directors do not constitute a quorum, to fill vacancies on the board.  These provisions of Maryland law, which are applicable even if other provisions of Maryland law or the charter or bylaws provide to the contrary, also provide that any director elected to fill a vacancy shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors in which the vacancy occurred, rather than the next annual meeting of stockholders as would otherwise be the case, and until his or her successor is elected and qualifies.

Stockholder Requested Special Meetings: Our bylaws provide that our stockholders have the right to call a special meeting only upon the written request of the stockholders entitled to cast not less than a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast by the stockholders at such meeting.

Advance Notice Provisions for Stockholder Nominations and Proposals: Our bylaws require advance written notice for stockholders to nominate persons for election as directors at, or to bring other business before, any meeting of stockholders.  This bylaw provision limits the ability of stockholders to make nominations of persons for election as directors or to introduce other proposals unless we are notified in a timely manner prior to the meeting.

Exclusive Authority of the Board to Amend the Bylaws: Our bylaws provide that our board of directors has the exclusive power to adopt, alter or repeal any provision of the bylaws or to make new bylaws.  Thus, our stockholders may not effect any changes to our bylaws.

Preferred Stock: Under our charter, our Board of Directors has authority to issue preferred stock from time to time in one or more series and to establish the terms, preferences and rights of any such series of preferred stock, all without approval of our stockholders.  As a result, our Board of Directors may establish a series of preferred stock that could delay or prevent a transaction or a change in control.

Duties of Directors with Respect to Unsolicited Takeovers: Maryland law provides protection for Maryland corporations against unsolicited takeovers by limiting, among other things, the duties of the directors in unsolicited takeover situations. The duties of directors of Maryland corporations do not require them to (a) accept, recommend or respond to any proposal by a person seeking to acquire control of the corporation, (b) authorize the corporation to redeem any rights under, or modify or render inapplicable, any stockholders rights plan, (c) make a determination under the Maryland Business Combination Act or the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act, or (d) act or fail to act solely because of the effect of the act or failure to act may have on an acquisition or potential acquisition of control of the corporation or the amount or type of consideration that may be offered or paid to the stockholders in an acquisition.  Moreover, under Maryland law, the act of a director of a Maryland corporation relating to or affecting an acquisition or potential acquisition of control is not subject to any higher duty or greater scrutiny than is applied to any other act of a director. Maryland law also contains a statutory presumption that an act of a director of a Maryland corporation satisfies the applicable standards of conduct for directors under Maryland law.
 
 
 
14

 

 
Ownership Limit: In order to preserve our status as a real estate investment trust under the Code, our charter generally prohibits any single stockholder, or any group of affiliated stockholders, from beneficially owning more than 9.8 percent of our outstanding capital stock unless our Board of Directors waives or modifies this ownership limit.

Maryland Business Combination Act: The Maryland Business Combination Act provides that unless exempted, a Maryland corporation may not engage in business combinations, including mergers, dispositions of 10 percent or more of its assets, certain issuances of shares of stock and other specified transactions, with an “interested stockholder” or an affiliate of an interested stockholder, for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder, and thereafter unless specified criteria are met.  An interested stockholder is generally a person owning or controlling, directly or indirectly, 10 percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding stock of the Maryland corporation.  Our board of directors has exempted from this statute business combinations between the Company and certain affiliated individuals and entities.  However, unless our board adopts other exemptions, the provisions of the Maryland Business Combination Act will be applicable to business combinations with other persons.

Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act: Maryland law provides that “control shares” of a corporation acquired in a “control share acquisition” shall have no voting rights except to the extent approved by a vote of two-thirds of the votes eligible to cast on the matter under the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act.  “Control shares” means shares of stock that, if aggregated with all other shares of stock previously acquired by the acquirer, would entitle the acquirer to exercise voting power in electing directors within one of the following ranges of the voting power:  one-tenth or more but less than one-third, one-third or more but less than a majority or a majority or more of all voting power.  A “control share acquisition” means the acquisition of control shares, subject to certain exceptions.

If voting rights of control shares acquired in a control share acquisition are not approved at a stockholder’s meeting, then subject to certain conditions and limitations, the issuer may redeem any or all of the control shares for fair value.  If voting rights of such control shares are approved at a stockholder’s meeting and the acquirer becomes entitled to vote a majority of the shares of stock entitled to vote, all other stockholders may exercise appraisal rights.  Our bylaws contain a provision exempting from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act any acquisitions of shares by certain affiliated individuals and entities, any directors, officers or employees of the Company and any person approved by the board of directors prior to the acquisition by such person of control shares.  Any control shares acquired in a control share acquisition which are not exempt under the foregoing provisions of our bylaws will be subject to the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act.

Consequences of failure to qualify as a real estate investment trust could adversely affect our financial condition. Failure to maintain ownership limits could cause us to lose our qualification as a real estate investment trust: In order for us to maintain our qualification as a real estate investment trust under the Code, not more than 50 percent in value of our outstanding stock may be actually and/or constructively owned by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code to include certain entities).  We have limited the ownership of our outstanding shares of our common stock by any single stockholder to 9.8 percent of the outstanding shares of our common stock.  Our Board of Directors could waive this restriction if they were satisfied, based upon the advice of tax counsel or otherwise, that such action would be in our best interests and would not affect our qualification as a real estate investment trust under the Code.  Common stock acquired or transferred in breach of the limitation may be redeemed by us for the lesser of the price paid and the average closing price for the 10 trading days immediately preceding redemption or sold at the direction of us.  We may elect to redeem such shares of common stock for Units, which are nontransferable except in very limited circumstances.  Any transfer of shares of common stock which, as a result of such transfer, causes us to be in violation of any ownership limit, will be deemed void.  Although we currently intend to continue to operate in a manner which will enable us to continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust under the Code, it is possible that future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause our Board of Directors to revoke the election for us to qualify as a real estate investment trust.  Under our organizational documents, our Board of Directors can make such revocation without the consent of our stockholders.
 
 
 
15

 

 
In addition, the consent of the holders of at least 85 percent of Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.’s partnership units is required: (i)  to merge (or permit the merger of) us with another unrelated person, pursuant to a transaction in which Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. is not the surviving entity; (ii) to dissolve, liquidate or wind up Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.; or (iii) to convey or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.’s assets.  As of February 6, 2012, as general partner, we own approximately 87.8 percent of Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.’s outstanding common partnership units.

Tax liabilities as a consequence of failure to qualify as a real estate investment trust: We have elected to be treated and have operated so as to qualify as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes since our taxable year ended December 31, 1994.  Although we believe we will continue to operate in such manner, we cannot guarantee that we will do so.  Qualification as a real estate investment trust involves the satisfaction of various requirements (some on an annual and some on a quarterly basis) established under highly technical and complex tax provisions of the Code.  Because few judicial or administrative interpretations of such provisions exist and qualification determinations are fact sensitive, we cannot assure you that we will qualify as a real estate investment trust for any taxable year.

If we fail to qualify as a real estate investment trust in any taxable year, we will be subject to the following:

·  
we will not be allowed a deduction for dividends paid to shareholders;
·  
we will be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates, including any alternative minimum tax, if applicable; and
·  
unless we are entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions, we will not be permitted to qualify as a real estate investment trust for the four taxable years following the year during which we were disqualified.

A loss of our status as a real estate investment trust could have an adverse effect on us.  Failure to qualify as a real estate investment trust also would eliminate the requirement that we pay dividends to our stockholders.

Other tax liabilities: Even if we qualify as a real estate investment trust under the Code, we are subject to certain federal, state and local taxes on our income and property and, in some circumstances, certain other state and local taxes.  From time to time changes in state and local tax laws or regulations are enacted, which may result in an increase in our tax liability. A shortfall in tax revenues for states and municipalities in which we operate may lead to an increase in the frequency and amount of such increase.  These actions could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our taxable REIT subsidiaries will be subject to federal, state and local income tax for income received in connection with certain non-customary services performed for tenants and/or third parties.

Risk of changes in the tax law applicable to real estate investment trusts: Since the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Treasury Department and Congress frequently review federal income tax legislation, we cannot predict whether, when or to what extent new federal tax laws, regulations, interpretations or rulings will be adopted.  Any of such legislative action may prospectively or retroactively modify our and Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.’s tax treatment and, therefore, may adversely affect taxation of us, Mack-Cali Realty, L.P., and/or our investors.

Security breaches and other disruptions could compromise our information and expose us to liability, which would cause our business and reputation to suffer.
In the ordinary course of our business, we collect and store sensitive data, including intellectual property, our proprietary business information and that of our tenants and business partners, including personally identifiable information of our tenants and employees, in our data centers and on our networks.  Despite our security measures, our information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers or breached due to employee error, malfeasance or other disruptions.  Any such breach could compromise our networks and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information, disrupt our operations, and damage our reputation, which could adversely affect our business.

Changes in market conditions could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
As with other publicly traded equity securities, the value of our common stock depends on various market conditions, which may change from time to time.  The market price of our common stock could change in ways that may or may not be related to our business, our industry or our operating performance and financial condition.  Among the market conditions that may affect the value of our common stock are the following:
 
 
 
16

 

 
 
·
 the extent of your interest in us;
 
·
 the general reputation of REITs and the attractiveness of our equity securities in comparison to other equity securities, including securities issued by other real estate-based companies;
 
·
 our financial performance; and
 
·
 general stock and bond market conditions.

The market value of our common stock is based primarily upon the market’s perception of our growth potential and our current and potential future earnings and cash dividends. Consequently, our common stock may trade at prices that are higher or lower than our net asset value per share of common stock.

(a)
Percentage leased includes all leases in effect as of the period end date, some of which have commencement dates in the future and leases expiring December 31, 2011 aggregating 193,213 square feet (representing 0.6 percent of the Company’s total net rentable square footage) for which no new leases were signed.
(b)
Total base rent for 2011, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).  Substantially all of the leases provide for annual base rents plus recoveries and escalation charges based upon the tenant’s proportionate share of and/or increases in real estate taxes and certain operating costs, as defined, and the pass through of charges for electrical usage.
(c)   Excludes space leased by the Company.
(d)
Base rent for 2011 divided by net rentable square feet leased at December 31, 2011.
(e)
Total base rent for 2011 minus total 2011 amortization of tenant improvements, leasing commissions and other concessions and costs, determined in accordance with GAAP, divided by net rentable square feet leased at December 31, 2011.
(f)
This property is located on land leased by the Company.
(g)
As this property was acquired, placed in service or initially consolidated by the Company during 2011, the amounts represented in 2011 base rent reflect only that portion of the year during which the Company owned or consolidated the property.  Accordingly, these amounts may not be indicative of the property’s full year results.  For comparison purposes, the amounts represented in 2011 average base rent per sq. ft. and 2011 effective rent per sq. ft. for this property have been calculated by taking 2011 base rent and 2011 effective rent for such property and annualizing these partial-year results, dividing such annualized amounts by the net rentable square feet leased at December 31, 2011.  These annualized per square foot amounts may not be indicative of the property’s results had the Company owned or consolidated the property for the entirety of 2011.

ITEM 7.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation and the notes thereto (collectively, the “Financial Statements”).  Certain defined terms used herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Financial Statements.


Executive Overview

Mack-Cali Realty Corporation together with its subsidiaries, (the “Company”) is one of the largest real estate investment trusts (REITs) in the United States.  The Company has been involved in all aspects of commercial real estate development, management and ownership for over 50 years and has been a publicly-traded REIT since 1994.  The Company owns or has interests in 278 properties (collectively, the “Properties”), primarily class A office and office/flex buildings, totaling approximately 32.4 million square feet, leased to over 2,000 tenants.  The Properties are located primarily in suburban markets of the Northeast, some with adjacent, Company-controlled developable land sites able to accommodate up to 12.3 million square feet of additional commercial space.

The Company’s strategy is to be a significant real estate owner and operator in its core, high-barriers-to-entry markets, primarily in the Northeast.

As an owner of real estate, almost all of the Company’s earnings and cash flow is derived from rental revenue received pursuant to leased space at the Properties.  Key factors that affect the Company’s business and financial results include the following:

· 
the general economic climate;
· 
the occupancy rates of the Properties;
· 
rental rates on new or renewed leases;
· 
tenant improvement and leasing costs incurred to obtain and retain tenants;
· 
the extent of early lease terminations;
· 
operating expenses;
· 
cost of capital; and
· 
the extent of acquisitions, development and sales of real estate.

Any negative effects of the above key factors could potentially cause a deterioration in the Company’s revenue and/or earnings.  Such negative effects could include: (1) failure to renew or execute new leases as current leases expire; (2) failure to renew or execute new leases with rental terms at or above the terms of in-place leases; and (3) tenant defaults.

A failure to renew or execute new leases as current leases expire or to execute new leases with rental terms at or above the terms of in-place leases may be affected by several factors such as: (1) the local economic climate, which may be adversely impacted by business layoffs or downsizing, industry slowdowns, changing demographics and other factors; and (2) local real estate conditions, such as oversupply of office and office/flex space or competition within the market.

The Company’s core markets continue to be weak.  The percentage leased in the Company’s consolidated portfolio of stabilized operating properties was 88.3 percent at December 31, 2011 as compared to 89.1 percent at December 31, 2010 and 90.1 percent at December 31, 2009.  Percentage leased includes all leases in effect as of the period end date, some of which have commencement dates in the future and leases that expire at the period end date.  Leases that expired as of December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 aggregate 193,213, 187,058 and 64,672 square feet, respectively, or 0.6, 0.6 and 0.2 percentage of the net rentable square footage, respectively.  The Company believes that vacancy rates may continue to increase and rental rates may continue to decline in some of its markets through 2012 and possibly beyond.  As a result, the Company’s future earnings and cash flow may continue to be negatively impacted by current market conditions.

 
43

 

The Company expects that the impact of the current state of the economy, including high unemployment will continue to have a negative effect on the fundamentals of its business, including lower occupancy, reduced effective rents, and increases in defaults and past due accounts.  These conditions would negatively affect the Company’s future net income and cash flows and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition.

The remaining portion of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should help the reader understand our:

· 
transactions;
· 
critical accounting policies and estimates;
· 
results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2010;
· 
results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2009;
· 
liquidity and capital resources.


Summary of Transactions

On February 18, 2011, the Company completed a public offering of 7,187,500 shares of common stock and used the net proceeds, which totaled approximately $227.4 million (after offering costs) primarily to repay borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility.

On May 1, 2011, the Company placed in service 55 Corporate Drive, a 204,057 square-foot office building located in Bridgewater, New Jersey. The Company incurred total costs on the project of approximately $48.1 million through December 31, 2011.

In August 2011, the Company commenced construction of a 203,000 square foot office building which is pre-leased for 15 years and 3 months, subject to two extension options of between five and 10 years each, to Wyndham Worldwide.  Wyndham currently leases space in neighboring buildings in the Mack-Cali Business Campus in Parsippany, New Jersey.  The new building is expected to be delivered to the tenant in the first quarter of 2013 at a total estimated cost of approximately $53.5 million.

On December 5, 2011, the Company entered into a development agreement (the “Development Agreement”) with Ironstate Development LLC (“Ironstate”) for the development of up to 2 million square feet of residential space with associated parking and ancillary retail space on land owned by the Company at its Harborside Financial Center complex in Jersey City, New Jersey (the “Harborside Residential Project”).  The first phase of the project is expected to consist of a parking pedestal to support two high-rise towers of approximately 500 apartment units each, and estimated to cost approximately $400 million.  The parties anticipate a fourth quarter 2012 ground breaking and the project will be ready for occupancy within approximately two years thereafter.

Pursuant to the Development Agreement, the Company and Ironstate shall co-develop the Harborside Residential Project with Ironstate responsible for obtaining all required development permits and approvals.  Major decisions with respect to the Harborside Residential Project will require the consent of the Company and Ironstate.  The Company and Ironstate will have 85 and 15 percent interests, respectively, in the Harborside Residential Project.  The Company will receive capital credit of $30 per approved developable square foot for its land.

The Development Agreement is subject to obtaining required approvals and development financing as well as numerous customary undertakings, covenants, obligations and conditions.  The Company has the right to reasonably determine that any phase of the Harborside Residential Project is not economically viable and may elect not to proceed, subject to certain conditions, with no further obligations to Ironstate other than reimbursement to Ironstate of all or a portion of the costs incurred by it to obtain any required approvals.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  The preparation of the Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period.  These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s historical experience that are believed to be reasonable at the time.  However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment.  The Company’s critical accounting policies are those which require assumptions to be made about matters that are highly uncertain.  Different estimates could have a material effect on the Company’s financial results.  Judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of these policies and estimates may result in materially different amounts being reported under different conditions and circumstances.

Rental Property:
Rental properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Costs directly related to the acquisition, development and construction of rental properties are capitalized.  Capitalized development and construction costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development and construction costs, interest, property taxes, insurance, salaries and other project costs incurred during the period of development.  Interest capitalized by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $1.1 million, $1.9 million and $1.4 million, respectively.  Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred; major replacements and betterments, which improve or extend the life of the asset, are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.  Fully-depreciated assets are removed from the accounts.

The Company considers a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity (as distinguished from activities such as routine maintenance and cleanup).  If portions of a rental project are substantially completed and occupied by tenants, or held available for occupancy, and other portions have not yet reached that stage, the substantially completed portions are accounted for as a separate project.  The Company allocates costs incurred between the portions under construction and the portions substantially completed and held available for occupancy and capitalizes only those costs associated with the portion under construction.

Properties are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  The estimated useful lives are as follows:

Leasehold interests
Remaining lease term
Buildings and improvements
5 to 40 years
Tenant improvements
The shorter of the term of the
 
related lease or useful life
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
5 to 10 years

Upon acquisition of rental property, the Company estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities generally consisting of the fair value of (i) above and below market leases, (ii) in-place leases and (iii) tenant relationships.  The Company allocates the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values. The Company records goodwill or a gain on bargain purchase (if any) if the net assets acquired/liabilities assumed exceed the purchase consideration of a transaction. In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired, the Company considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence and marketing and leasing activities, and utilizes various valuation methods, such as estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation, and available market information.  The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant.

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases.  The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining term of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed rate renewal options of the respective leases.

Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values and tenant relationship values which are based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company’s overall relationship with the respective tenant.  Factors to be considered by management in its analysis of in-place lease values include an estimate of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases.  In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions.  In estimating costs to execute similar leases, management considers leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.  Characteristics considered by management in valuing tenant relationships include the nature and extent of the Company’s existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals.  The value of in-place leases are amortized to expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases.  The value of tenant relationship intangibles will be amortized to expense over the anticipated life of the relationships.

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company’s rental properties may be impaired.  In addition to identifying any specific circumstances which may affect a property or properties, management considers other criteria for determining which properties may require assessment for potential impairment.  The criteria considered by management include reviewing low leased percentages, significant near-term lease expirations, recently acquired properties, current and historical operating and/or cash flow losses, near-term mortgage debt maturities or other factors that might impact the Company’s intent and ability to hold the property.  A property’s value is impaired only if management’s estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property is less than the carrying value of the property.  To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the fair value of the property.  The Company’s estimates of aggregate future cash flows expected to be generated by each property are based on a number of assumptions.  These assumptions are generally based on management’s experience in its local real estate markets and the effects of current market conditions.  The assumptions are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and costs to operate each property.  As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be achieved, and actual losses or impairments may be realized in the future.

Rental Property Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations:
When assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Company discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the sales price, net of selling costs, of such assets.  If, in management’s opinion, the net sales price of the assets which have been identified as held for sale is less than the net book value of the assets, a valuation allowance is established.  Properties identified as held for sale and/or sold are presented in discontinued operations for all periods presented.

If circumstances arise that previously were considered unlikely and, as a result, the Company decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the property is reclassified as held and used.  A property that is reclassified is measured and recorded individually at the lower of (a) its carrying amount before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation (amortization) expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used, or (b) the fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell.

Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures:
The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting.  The Company applies the equity method by initially recording these investments at cost, as Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions.

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation, provides guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIEs (the “primary beneficiary”).  Generally, the consideration of whether an entity is a VIE applies when either (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest, (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest.

On January 1, 2010, the Company adopted the updated provisions of ASC 810, which amends FIN 46(R) to require ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity.  Additionally, ASC 810 amends FIN 46(R) to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, which was based on determining which enterprise absorbs the majority of the entity’s expected losses, receives a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns, or both.  ASC 810 amends certain guidance in Interpretation 46(R) for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity.  Also, ASC 810 amends FIN 46(R) to require enhanced disclosures that will provide users of financial statements with more transparent information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity.  The enhanced disclosures are required for any enterprise that holds a variable interest in a variable interest entity.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact to the Financial Statements.  See Note 4: Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures to the Financial Statements for disclosures regarding the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures.

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures may be impaired.  An investment is impaired only if management’s estimate of the value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary.  To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the value of the investment.  The Company’s estimates of value for each investment (particularly in commercial real estate joint ventures) are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and operating costs.  As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the values estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be realized, and actual losses or impairment may be realized in the future.

Revenue Recognition:
Base rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases.  Unbilled rents receivable represents the amount by which straight-line rental revenue exceeds rents currently billed in accordance with the lease agreements.  Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options for below-market leases.  The capitalized above-market lease values for acquired properties are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining term of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options of the respective leases.  Escalations and recoveries from tenants are received from tenants for certain costs as provided in the lease agreements.  These costs generally include real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable costs.

Construction services revenue includes fees earned and reimbursements received by the Company for providing construction management and general contractor services to clients.  Construction services revenue is recognized on the percentage of completion method.  Using this method, profits are recorded on the basis of our estimates of the overall profit and percentage of completion of individual contracts.  A portion of the estimated profits is accrued based upon estimates of the percentage of completion of the construction contract.  This revenue recognition method involves inherent risks relating to profit and cost estimates.  Real estate services revenue includes property management, facilities management, leasing commission fees and other services, and payroll and related costs reimbursed from clients.  Other income includes income from parking spaces leased to tenants, income from tenants for additional services arranged for the Company and income from tenants for early lease terminations.
 
 
 
47

 
 

 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:
Management periodically performs a detailed review of amounts due from tenants to determine if accounts receivable balances are impaired based on factors affecting the collectability of those balances.  Management’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts requires management to exercise significant judgment about the timing, frequency and severity of collection losses, which affects the allowance and net income.

Base rents for the Same-Store Properties decreased $9.5 million, or 1.6 percent, for 2011 as compared to 2010, due primarily to decreased occupancy and rental rates in 2011 over 2010.  Escalations and recoveries from tenants for the Same-Store Properties decreased $7.8 million, or 7.7 percent, for 2011 over 2010, due primarily to lower recoveries from newer tenants in 2011, as well as lower property expenses in 2011 (primarily from greater refunds on tax appeals), as compared to 2010.  Other income for the Same-Store Properties increased $0.2 million, or 1.8 percent, due primarily to an increase in lease termination fees recognized in 2011 as compared to 2010.

Real estate taxes on the Same-Store Properties decreased $6.4 million, or 6.8 percent, for 2011 as compared to 2010, due primarily to greater refunds on tax appeals received in 2011 as compared to 2010.  Utilities for the Same-Store Properties decreased $1.1 million, or 1.5 percent, for 2011 as compared to 2010, due primarily to lower rates in 2011 as compared to 2010.  Operating services for the Same-Store Properties increased $2.4 million, or 2.1 percent, due primarily to increases in maintenance and snow removal costs in 2011 as compared to 2010.

Construction services revenue decreased $50.9 million, or 80.9 percent, in 2011 as compared to 2010, due primarily to decreased contracts in 2011.  Real estate services revenues decreased by $2.7 million, or 34.0 percent, for 2011 as compared to 2010, due primarily to a decrease in properties under management in 2011 as compared to 2010.

Direct construction costs decreased $48.8 million, or 81.0 percent, in 2011 as compared to 2010, due primarily to decreased construction contracts in 2011.

General and administrative increased by $0.5 million, or 1.5 percent, for 2011 as compared to 2010 due primarily to an increase in salaries and related expenses in 2011.

Depreciation and amortization increased by $2.4 million, or 1.3 percent, for 2011 over 2010.  This increase was due primarily to the effect of the Acquired Properties.

In 2010, the Company incurred a $9.5 million impairment charge on a rental property.
 
 
 
 
51

 
 

 
Interest expense decreased $23.4 million, or 15.6 percent, for 2011 as compared to 2010.  This decrease was primarily as a result of lower average debt balances in 2011 as compared to 2010, primarily from proceeds received from the common stock offering in 2011.

Interest and other investment income was relatively unchanged for 2011 as compared to 2010.
 
 
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures decreased $0.3 million, or 11.2 percent, for 2011 as compared to 2010.  The decrease was due primarily to income of $1.9 million in 2010 from the Gale Kimball venture (which sold its office property in late 2010).  This was partially offset by increased income of $1.2 million (due primarily to renovated rooms returned to service in 2011), in the Harborside South Pier venture in 2011 as compared to 2010, and a loss of $0.4 million in 2010 from the Princeton Forrestal Village venture (which sold its property in late 2010).

The Company recognized a loss from early extinguishment of debt of $3.8 million in 2010 as a result of the prepayment of $300 million of senior unsecured notes in 2010 which were scheduled to mature in February 2011.

Income from continuing operations increased to $81.4 million in 2011 from $58.8 million in 2010.  The increase of $22.6 million was due to the factors discussed above.

Net income available to common shareholders increased by $16.8 million, or 31.7 percent, from $52.9 million in 2010 to $69.7 million in 2011.  The increase was primarily the result of an increase in income from continuing operations of $22.6 million, a decrease in noncontrolling interest in discontinued operations of $0.7 million, a decrease in preferred stock dividends of $0.3 million (due to the redemption of the preferred stock in 2011), and an increase in noncontrolling interest in consolidated joint ventures of $0.1 million for 2011 as compared to 2010.  These were partially offset by a realized gain on disposition of rental property of $4.4 million in 2010, an increase in noncontrolling interest in Operating Partnership of $2.2 million for 2011 as compared to 2010, and a decrease in income from discontinued operations of approximately $0.3 million for 2011 as compared to 2010.

Base rents for the Same-Store Properties decreased $19.4 million, or 3.2 percent, for 2010 as compared to 2009, due primarily to decreased occupancy and rental rates in 2010 over 2009.  Escalations and recoveries from tenants for the Same-Store Properties decreased $2.6 million, or 2.5 percent, for 2010 over 2009, due primarily to lower recoveries from newer tenants in 2010. Other income for the Same-Store Properties decreased $1.0 million, or 7.2 percent, due primarily to a decrease in tenant extra services in 2010.

Real estate taxes on the Same-Store Properties decreased $1.4 million, or 1.5 percent, for 2010 as compared to 2009, due primarily to reductions in certain property tax assessments and real estate tax refunds in 2010.  Utilities for the Same-Store Properties increased $2.8 million, or 4.0 percent, for 2010 as compared to 2009, due primarily to increased usage and rates in 2010 as compared to 2009.  Operating services for the Same-Store Properties increased $2.2 million, or 2.0 percent, due primarily to an increase in snow removal and maintenance costs in 2010 as compared to 2009.

Construction services revenue increased $41.1 million, or 187.5 percent, in 2010 as compared to 2009, due primarily to increased construction contracts in 2010.  Real estate services revenues decreased by $1.5 million, or 15.9 percent, for 2010 as compared to 2009, due primarily to decreases in management fee income of $0.6 million, salary reimbursements of $0.6 million, and commissions income of $0.3 million on account of a reduction in third party management and leasing assignments in 2010.

Direct construction costs increased $39.9 million, or 196.5 percent, in 2010 as compared to 2009, due primarily to increased construction contracts in 2010.

General and administrative decreased by $4.8 million, or 12.0 percent, for 2010 as compared to 2009 due primarily to decreases in salaries and related expenses and professional fees in 2010.

Depreciation and amortization decreased by $9.6 million, or 4.8 percent, for 2010 over 2009.  This decrease was due primarily to assets becoming fully amortized in 2010.

In 2010, the Company incurred a $9.5 million impairment charge on a rental property.

Interest expense increased $9.3 million, or 6.6 percent, for 2010 as compared to 2009.  This increase was primarily as a result of higher average debt balances and interest rates in 2010 as compared to 2009.
 
 
 
54

 
 

 
Interest and other investment income decreased $0.5 million, or 84.9 percent, for 2010 as compared to 2009.  This decrease was due primarily to the repayment of a note receivable in late 2009.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures increased $7.8 million, or 140.9 percent, for 2010 as compared to 2009.  The increase was due primarily to the write-off in 2009 of the Company’s investment in the Route 93 Portfolio venture for an increased loss of $4.4 million, a decreased loss of $4.1 million in the Boston-Downtown Crossing venture for 2010 as compared to 2009, increased income of $1.3 million in the Gale Kimball venture for 2010 as compared to 2009.  These were partially offset by decreased income of $2.6 million from the Harborside South Pier venture for 2010 as compared to 2009.

The Company recognized a loss from early extinguishment of debt of $3.8 million in 2010 as a result of the prepayment of $300 million of senior unsecured notes in 2010 which were scheduled to mature in February 2011.

The Company had a gain on reduction of other obligations of $1.7 million on account of the expiration of certain assumed obligations in 2009.

Income from continuing operations decreased to approximately $58.7 million in 2010 from $80.3 million in 2009.  The decrease of $21.6 million was due to the factors discussed above.

Net income available to common shareholders increased by $0.3 million, or 0.6 percent, from $52.6 million in 2009 to $52.9 million in 2010.  The increase was primarily the result of an impairment charge on rental property of $16.6 million in 2009, a realized gain on disposition of rental property of $4.4 million, an increase in noncontrolling interest in Operating Partnership of $4.4 million, and an increase in income from discontinued operation of $0.3 million for 2010 as compared to 2009.  These were partially offset by a decrease in income from continuing operations of $21.6 million, a decrease in noncontrolling interest in discontinued operations of $3.1 million, and a decrease in noncontrolling interest in consolidated joint ventures of $0.7 million for 2010 as compared to 2009.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


Liquidity

Overview:
Historically, rental revenue has been the Company’s principal source of funds to pay operating expenses, debt service, capital expenditures and dividends, excluding non-recurring capital expenditures.  To the extent that the Company’s cash flow from operating activities is insufficient to finance its non-recurring capital expenditures such as property acquisitions, development and construction costs and other capital expenditures, the Company has and expects to continue to finance such activities through borrowings under its revolving credit facility and other debt and equity financings.

The Company believes that with the general downturn in the Company’s markets in recent years, it is reasonably likely that vacancy rates may continue to increase, effective rental rates on new and renewed leases may continue to decrease and tenant installation costs, including concessions, may continue to increase in most or all of its markets in 2012 and possibly beyond.  As a result of the potential negative effects on the Company’s revenue from the overall reduced demand for office space, the Company’s cash flow could be insufficient to cover increased tenant installation costs over the short-term.  If this situation were to occur, the Company expects that it would finance any shortfalls through borrowings under its revolving credit facility and other debt and equity financings.

The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally through its working capital, net cash provided by operating activities and from its revolving credit facility.  The Company frequently examines potential property acquisitions and development projects and, at any given time, one or more of such acquisitions or development projects may be under consideration.  Accordingly, the ability to fund property acquisitions and development projects is a major part of the Company’s financing requirements.  The Company expects to meet its financing requirements through funds generated from operating activities, to the extent available, proceeds from property sales, long-term and short-term borrowings (including draws on the Company’s revolving credit facility) and the issuance of additional debt and/or equity securities.

Construction Projects:
In August 2011, the Company commenced construction of a 203,000 square foot office building which is pre-leased for 15 years and three months, subject to two extension options of between five and 10 years each, to Wyndham Worldwide.  Wyndham currently leases space in neighboring buildings in the Mack-Cali Business Campus in Parsippany, New Jersey.  The new building is expected to be delivered to the tenant in the first quarter of 2013 at a total estimated cost of approximately $53.5 million (of which the Company has incurred $14.4 million through December 31, 2011).

On December 5, 2011, the Company entered into a development agreement (the “Development Agreement”) with Ironstate Development LLC (“Ironstate”) for the development of up to 2 million square feet of residential space with associated parking and ancillary retail space on land owned by the Company at its Harborside Financial Center complex in Jersey City, New Jersey (the “Harborside Residential Project”).  The first phase of the project is expected to consist of a parking pedestal to support two high-rise towers of approximately 500 apartment units each, and estimated to cost approximately $400 million.  The parties anticipate a fourth quarter 2012 ground breaking and the project will be ready for occupancy within approximately two years thereafter.

Pursuant to the Development Agreement, the Company and Ironstate shall co-develop the Harborside Residential Project with Ironstate responsible for obtaining all required development permits and approvals.  Major decisions with respect to the Harborside Residential Project will require the consent of the Company and Ironstate.  The Company and Ironstate will have 85 and 15 percent interests, respectively, in the Harborside Residential Project.  The Company will receive capital credit of $30 per approved developable square foot for its land.

The Development Agreement is subject to obtaining required approvals and development financing as well as numerous customary undertakings, covenants, obligations and conditions.  The Company has the right to reasonably determine that any phase of the Harborside Residential Project is not economically viable and may elect not to proceed, subject to certain conditions, with no further obligations to Ironstate other than reimbursement to Ironstate of all or a portion of the costs incurred by it to obtain any required approvals.

REIT Restrictions:
To maintain its qualification as a REIT under the Code, the Company must make annual distributions to its stockholders of at least 90 percent of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding net capital gains.  Moreover, the Company intends to continue to make regular quarterly distributions to its common stockholders.  Based upon the most recently paid quarterly common stock dividend of $0.45 per common share, in the aggregate, such distributions would equal approximately $158.0 million ($180.0 million, including common units in the Operating Partnership, held by parties other than the Company) on an annualized basis.  However, any such distribution, whether for federal income tax purposes or otherwise, would be paid out of (a) available cash, including borrowings and other sources, after meeting operating requirements, preferred stock dividends and distributions, and scheduled debt service on the Company’s debt, and (b) for distributions declared on or before December 31, 2012 with respect to a taxable year ending on or before December 31, 2011, our stock, as permitted pursuant to Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 2010-12, 2010-3 I.R.B. Under this Revenue Procedure, we are permitted to make taxable distributions of our stock (in lieu of cash) if (x) any such distribution is declared on or before December 31, 2012 with respect to a taxable year ending on or before December 31, 2011, and (y) each of our stockholders is permitted to elect to receive its entire entitlement under such declaration in either cash or shares of equivalent value subject to a limitation in the amount of cash to be distributed in the aggregate; provided that (i) the amount of cash that we set aside for distribution is not less than 10 percent of the aggregate distribution so declared, and (ii) if too many of our stockholders elect to receive cash, a pro rata amount of cash will be distributed to each such stockholder electing to receive cash, but in no event will any such stockholder receive less than its entire entitlement under such declaration.

Property Lock-Ups:
The Company may not dispose of or distribute certain of its properties, currently comprising seven properties with an aggregate net book value of approximately $131.6 million, which were originally contributed by certain unrelated common unitholders of the Operating Partnership, without the express written consent of such common unitholders, as applicable, except in a manner which does not result in recognition of any built-in-gain (which may result in an income tax liability) or which reimburses the appropriate specific common unitholders for the tax consequences of the recognition of such built-in-gains (collectively, the “Property Lock-Ups”).  The aforementioned restrictions do not apply in the event that the Company sells all of its properties or in connection with a sale transaction which the Company’s Board of Directors determines is reasonably necessary to satisfy a material monetary default on any unsecured debt, judgment or liability of the Company or to cure any material monetary default on any mortgage secured by a property.  The Property Lock-Ups expire periodically through 2016.  Upon the expiration of the Property Lock-Ups, the Company is generally required to use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any sale, transfer or other disposition of the subject properties from resulting in the recognition of built-in gain to the specific common unitholders, which include members of the Mack Group (which includes William L. Mack, Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors; David S. Mack, director; Earle I. Mack, a former director; and Mitchell E. Hersh, president, chief executive officer and director), the Robert Martin Group (which includes Robert F. Weinberg, director; and Timothy M. Jones, former president), the Cali Group (which includes John R. Cali, director, and John J. Cali, a former director).  As of December 31, 2011, 129 of the Company’s properties, with an aggregate net book value of approximately $1.7 billion, have lapsed restrictions and are subject to these conditions.

Unencumbered Properties:
As of December 31, 2011, the Company had 237 unencumbered properties, totaling 24.5 million square feet, representing 78.6 percent of the Company’s total portfolio on a square footage basis.


Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $1.3 million to $20.5 million at December 31, 2011, compared to $21.8 million at December 31, 2010.  This decrease is comprised of the following net cash flow items:

Senior Unsecured Notes:
The terms of the Company’s senior unsecured notes (which totaled approximately $1.1 billion as of December 31, 2011) include certain restrictions and covenants which require compliance with financial ratios relating to the maximum amount of debt leverage, the maximum amount of secured indebtedness, the minimum amount of debt service coverage and the maximum amount of unsecured debt as a percent of unsecured assets.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility:
On October 21, 2011, the Company amended and restated its unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of 20 lenders.  The $600 million facility is expandable to $1 billion and matures in October 2015. It has a one year extension option with the payment of a 20 basis point fee.  The interest rate on outstanding borrowings (not electing the Company’s competitive bid feature) and the facility fee on the current borrowing capacity payable quarterly in arrears are based upon the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings, as follows:

The facility has a competitive bid feature, which allows the Company to solicit bids from lenders under the facility to borrow up to $300 million at interest rates less than those above.

The terms of the unsecured facility include certain restrictions and covenants which limit, among other things the incurrence of additional indebtedness, the incurrence of liens and the disposition of real estate properties (to the extent that: (i) such property dispositions cause the Company to default on any of the financial ratios of the facility described below, or (ii) the property dispositions are completed while the Company is under an event of default under the facility, unless, under certain circumstances, such disposition is being carried out to cure such default), and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to the maximum leverage ratio, the maximum amount of secured indebtedness, the minimum amount of tangible net worth, the minimum amount of fixed charge coverage, the maximum amount of unsecured indebtedness, the minimum amount of unencumbered property interest coverage and certain investment limitations.  If an event of default has occurred and is continuing, the Company will not make any excess distributions except to enable the Company to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Code.

The lending group for the credit facility consists of: JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent; Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent; Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas; US Bank National Association and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as documentation agents; Capital One, N.A.; Citicorp North America, Inc.; Comerica Bank; PNC Bank, National Association; SunTrust Bank; The Bank of New York Mellon; The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, LTD., as managing agents; and Compass Bank; Branch Banking and Trust Company; TD Bank, N.A.; Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania; Chang Hwa Commercial Bank, LTD., New York Branch; Mega International Commercial Bank Co., LTD., New York Branch; First Commercial Bank, New York Branch; and Hua Nan Commercial Bank, LTD., New York Agency, as participants.

As of February 6, 2012, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $210 million under its unsecured revolving credit facility.

Through October 20, 2011, the Company had a $775 million unsecured revolving credit facility.  The interest rate on outstanding borrowings was LIBOR plus 55 basis points.

Money Market Loan:
The Company entered into an agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank to participate in a noncommitted money market loan program (“Money Market Loan”).  The Money Market Loan is an unsecured borrowing of up to $75 million arranged by JPMorgan Chase Bank (“the lender”) with maturities of 30 days or less.  The rate of interest on the Money Market Loan borrowing is set at the time of each borrowing.  As of December 31, 2011, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its Money Market Loan program.

Mortgages, Loans Payable and Other Obligations:
The Company has mortgages, loans payable and other obligations which consist of various loans collateralized by certain of the Company’s rental properties.  Payments on mortgages, loans payable and other obligations are generally due in monthly installments of principal and interest, or interest only.

Debt Strategy:
The Company does not intend to reserve funds to retire the Company’s senior unsecured notes, borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility, or its mortgages, loans payable and other obligations upon maturity.  Instead, the Company will seek to refinance such debt at maturity or retire such debt through the issuance of additional equity or debt securities on or before the applicable maturity dates.  If it cannot raise sufficient proceeds to retire the maturing debt, the Company may draw on its revolving credit facility to retire the maturing indebtedness, which would reduce the future availability of funds under such facility.  As of February 6, 2012, the Company had $210 million of outstanding borrowings under its $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility and no outstanding borrowings under the Money Market Loan.  The Company is reviewing various refinancing options, including the purchase of its senior unsecured notes in privately-negotiated transactions, the issuance of additional, or exchange of current, unsecured debt, common and preferred stock, and/or obtaining additional mortgage debt, some or all of which may be completed during 2012.  The Company currently anticipates that its available cash and cash equivalents and cash flows from operating activities, together with cash available from borrowings and other sources, will be adequate to meet the Company’s capital and liquidity needs in the short term.  However, if these sources of funds are insufficient or unavailable, due to current economic conditions or otherwise, the Company’s ability to make the expected distributions discussed in “REIT Restrictions” above may be adversely affected.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Unconsolidated Joint Venture Debt:
The debt of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures are generally non-recourse to the Company except for customary exceptions pertaining to such matters as intentional misuse of funds, environmental conditions and material misrepresentations.  The Company has also posted a $5.5 million letter of credit in support of the Harborside South Pier joint venture, half of which is indemnified by Hyatt Corporation, the Company’s joint venture partner.

Inflation

The Company’s leases with the majority of its tenants provide for recoveries and escalation charges based upon the tenant’s proportionate share of, and/or increases in, real estate taxes and certain operating costs, which reduce the Company’s exposure to increases in operating costs resulting from inflation.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

We consider portions of this information, including the documents incorporated by reference, to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 21E of such act.  Such forward-looking statements relate to, without limitation, our future economic performance, plans and objectives for future operations and projections of revenue and other financial items.  Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “plan,” “potential,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “continue” or comparable terminology.  Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which we cannot predict with accuracy and some of which we might not even anticipate.  Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions at the time made, we can give no assurance that such expectations will be achieved.  Future events and actual results, financial and otherwise, may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.  Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

 
62

 


Among the factors about which we have made assumptions are:

·  
risks and uncertainties affecting the general economic climate and conditions, which in turn may have a negative effect on the fundamentals of our business and the financial condition of our tenants;
·  
the value of our real estate assets, which may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or obtain or maintain debt financing secured by our properties or on an unsecured basis;
·  
the extent of any tenant bankruptcies or of any early lease terminations;
·  
our ability to lease or re-lease space at current or anticipated rents;
·  
changes in the supply of and demand for office, office/flex and industrial/warehouse properties;
·  
changes in interest rate levels and volatility in the securities markets;
·  
changes in operating costs;
·  
our ability to obtain adequate insurance, including coverage for terrorist acts;
·  
the availability of financing on attractive terms or at all, which may adversely impact our ability to pursue acquisition and development opportunities and refinance existing debt and our future interest expense;
·  
changes in governmental regulation, tax rates and similar matters; and
·  
other risks associated with the development and acquisition of properties, including risks that the development may not be completed on schedule, that the tenants will not take occupancy or pay rent, or that development or operating costs may be greater than anticipated.

For further information on factors which could impact us and the statements contained herein, see Item 1A: Risk Factors. We assume no obligation to update and supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events, new information or otherwise.


ITEM 7A.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices.  In pursuing its business plan, the primary market risk to which the Company is exposed is interest rate risk.  Changes in the general level of interest rates prevailing in the financial markets may affect the spread between the Company’s yield on invested assets and cost of funds and, in turn, its ability to make distributions or payments to its investors.

Approximately $1.8 billion of the Company’s long-term debt as of December 31, 2011 bears interest at fixed rates and therefore the fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in market interest rates.  The following table presents principal cash flows (in thousands) based upon maturity dates of the debt obligations and the related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates for the fixed rate debt.  The interest rates on the Company’s variable rate debt as of December 31, 2011 ranged from LIBOR plus 125 basis points to LIBOR plus 200 basis points.  If market rates of interest on the Company’s variable rate debt increased or decreased by 100 basis points, then the increase or decrease in interest costs on the Company’s variable rate debt would be approximately $665,000 annually and the increase or decrease in the fair value of the Company’s fixed rate debt as of December 31, 2011 would be approximately $70 million.

While the Company has not experienced any significant credit losses, in the event of a significant rising interest rate environment and/or economic downturn, defaults could increase and result in losses to the Company which could adversely affect its operating results and liquidity.

ITEM 9.          CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING
AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

None.


ITEM 9A.       CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.  Internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has established and maintained policies and procedures designed to maintain the adequacy of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, and includes those policies and procedures that:

 
(1)
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
 
 
(2)
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and

 
(3)
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

The Company’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011 based on the criteria established in a report entitled Internal Control—Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).  Based on our assessment and those criteria, the Company’s management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2011.
 
 
 
64

 
 

 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears herein.

Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.  There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


To Board of Directors and Shareholders
of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation:

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(1) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) at December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2)(i) presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements.  Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).  The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements and financial statement schedule, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A.  Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements, on the financial statement schedule, and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits.  We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.  Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk.  Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

MACK-CALI REALTY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  
ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

ORGANIZATION
Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), is a fully-integrated, self-administered, self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) providing leasing, management, acquisition, development, construction and tenant-related services for its properties and third parties.  As of December 31, 2011, the Company owned or had interests in 278 properties plus developable land (collectively, the “Properties”).  The Properties aggregate approximately 32.4 million square feet, which are comprised of 266 buildings, primarily office and office/flex buildings totaling approximately 32.0 million square feet (which include eight buildings, primarily office buildings aggregating approximately 1.2 million square feet owned by unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company has investment interests), six industrial/warehouse buildings totaling approximately 387,400 square feet, two retail properties totaling approximately 17,300 square feet, one hotel (which is owned by an unconsolidated joint venture in which the Company has an investment interest) and three parcels of land leased to others.  The Properties are located in five states, primarily in the Northeast, plus the District of Columbia.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company, its majority-owned and/or controlled subsidiaries, which consist principally of Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), and variable interest entities for which the Company has determined itself to be the primary beneficiary, if any.  See Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies – Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures for the Company’s treatment of unconsolidated joint venture interests.  Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts in order to conform with current period presentation.


2.  
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Rental
Property
Rental properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Costs directly related to the acquisition, development and construction of rental properties are capitalized. Pursuant to the Company’s adoption of ASC 805, Business Combinations, effective January 1, 2009, acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.  Capitalized development and construction costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development and construction costs, interest, property taxes, insurance, salaries and other project costs incurred during the period of development.  Included in total rental property is construction, tenant improvement and development in-progress of $37,069,000 and $65,990,000 as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred; major replacements and betterments, which improve or extend the life of the asset, are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.  Fully-depreciated assets are removed from the accounts.

The Company considers a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity (as distinguished from activities such as routine maintenance and cleanup).  If portions of a rental project are substantially completed and occupied by tenants, or held available for occupancy, and other portions have not yet reached that stage, the substantially completed portions are accounted for as a separate project.  The Company allocates costs incurred between the portions under construction and the portions substantially completed and held available for occupancy, and capitalizes only those costs associated with the portion under construction.
 
 
 
 
72

 

 
Properties are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  The estimated useful lives are as follows:

Leasehold interests
Remaining lease term
Buildings and improvements
5 to 40 years
Tenant improvements
The shorter of the term of the
 
related lease or useful life
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
5 to 10 years

Upon acquisition of rental property, the Company estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities assumed, generally consisting of the fair value of (i) above and below market leases, (ii) in-place leases and (iii) tenant relationships.  The Company allocates the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values.  The Company records goodwill or a gain on bargain purchase (if any) if the net assets acquired/liabilities assumed exceed the purchase consideration of a transaction.  In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired, the Company considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence and marketing and leasing activities, and utilizes various valuation methods, such as estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation, and available market information.  The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant.

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value, (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining term of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed rate renewal options of the respective leases.

Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values and tenant relationship values, which are based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company’s overall relationship with the respective tenant.  Factors to be considered by management in its analysis of in-place lease values include an estimate of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases.  In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions.  In estimating costs to execute similar leases, management considers leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.  Characteristics considered by management in valuing tenant relationships include the nature and extent of the Company’s existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals.  The value of in-place leases are amortized to expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases.  The value of tenant relationship intangibles are amortized to expense over the anticipated life of the relationships.

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company’s rental properties held for use may be impaired.  In addition to identifying any specific circumstances which may affect a property or properties, management considers other criteria for determining which properties may require assessment for potential impairment.  The criteria considered by management include reviewing low leased percentages, significant near-term lease expirations, recently acquired properties, current and historical operating and/or cash flow losses, near-term mortgage debt maturities or other factors that might impact the Company’s intent and ability to hold the property.  A property’s value is impaired only if management’s estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property is less than the carrying value of the property.  To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the fair value of the property.  The Company’s estimates of aggregate future cash flows expected to be generated by each property are based on a number of assumptions.  These assumptions are generally based on management’s experience in its local real estate markets and the effects of current market conditions.  The assumptions are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and costs to operate each property.  As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be achieved, and actual losses or impairment may be realized in the future.
 
 
 
73

 
 

 
Rental Property
 
Held for Sale and
 
Discontinued
 
Operations
When assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Company discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the sales price, net of selling costs, of such assets.  If, in management’s opinion, the estimated net sales price of the assets which have been identified as held for sale is less than the net book value of the assets, a valuation allowance is established.  Properties identified as held for sale and/or disposed of are presented in discontinued operations for all periods presented.  See Note 7: Discontinued Operations.

If circumstances arise that previously were considered unlikely and, as a result, the Company decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the property is reclassified as held and used.  A property that is reclassified is measured and recorded individually at the lower of (a) its carrying amount before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation (amortization) expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used, or (b) the fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell.

Investments in
Unconsolidated
Joint Ventures
The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting.  The Company applies the equity method by initially recording these investments at cost, as Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions.

 
ASC 810, Consolidation, provides guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIE (the “primary beneficiary”).  Generally, the consideration of whether an entity is a VIE applies when either (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest, (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest.

 
On January 1, 2010, the Company adopted the updated provisions of ASC 810, which amends FIN 46(R) to require ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity.  Additionally, ASC 810 amends FIN 46(R) to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, which was based on determining which enterprise absorbs the majority of the entity’s expected losses, receives a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns, or both.  ASC 810 amends certain guidance in Interpretation 46(R) for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity.  Also, ASC 810 amends FIN 46(R) to require enhanced disclosures that will provide users of financial statements with more transparent information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity.  The enhanced disclosures are required for any enterprise that holds a variable interest in a variable interest entity.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact to these financial statements.  See Note 4: Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures for disclosures regarding the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures.

 
74

 
 

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures may be impaired.  An investment is impaired only if management’s estimate of the value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary.  To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the value of the investment.  The Company’s estimates of value for each investment (particularly in commercial real estate joint ventures) are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and operating costs.  As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the values estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be realized, and actual losses or impairment may be realized in the future.  See Note 4: Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures.

Cash and Cash
 
Equivalents
All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents.

Marketable
Securities
The Company classifies its marketable securities among three categories: held-to-maturity, trading and available-for-sale.  Unrealized holding gains and losses relating to available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as other comprehensive income (loss) in equity until realized.  A decline in the market value of any held-to-maturity marketable security below cost that is deemed to be other than temporary results in a reduction in the carrying amount to fair value.  Any impairment would be charged to earnings and a new cost basis for the security established.

The fair value of the marketable securities is determined using level I inputs under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.  Level I inputs represent quoted prices available in an active market for identical investments as of the reporting date.

Deferred
Financing Costs
Costs incurred in obtaining financing are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related indebtedness. Amortization of such costs is included in interest expense and was $2,370,000, $2,656,000 and $2,730,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Deferred
Leasing Costs
Costs incurred in connection with leases are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases and included in depreciation and amortization.  Unamortized deferred leasing costs are charged to amortization expense upon early termination of the lease. Certain employees of the Company are compensated for providing leasing services to the Properties.  The portion of such compensation, which is capitalized and amortized, approximated $4,432,000, $3,986,000 and $3,725,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

 
75

 

Derivative
Instruments
The Company measures derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, at fair value and records them as an asset or liability, depending on the Company’s rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract.  For derivatives designated and qualifying as fair value hedges, the changes in the fair value of both the derivative instrument and the hedged item are recorded in earnings.  For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portions of the derivative are reported in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedging and ineffective portions of hedges are recognized in earnings in the affected period.

Revenue
Recognition
Base rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases.  Unbilled rents receivable represents the amount by which straight-line rental revenue exceeds rents currently billed in accordance with the lease agreements.  Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining terms of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options for below-market leases.  The capitalized above-market lease values for acquired properties are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options of the respective leases.  Escalations and recoveries from tenants are received from tenants for certain costs as provided in the lease agreements.  These costs generally include real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable costs.  See Note 14: Tenant Leases.  Construction services revenue includes fees earned and reimbursements received by the Company for providing construction management and general contractor services to clients.  Construction services revenue is recognized on the percentage of completion method.  Using this method, profits are recorded on the basis of estimates of the overall profit and percentage of completion of individual contracts.  A portion of the estimated profits is accrued based upon estimates of the percentage of completion of the construction contract.  This revenue recognition method involves inherent risks relating to profit and cost estimates.  Real estate services revenue includes property management, facilities management, leasing commission fees and other services, and payroll and related costs reimbursed from clients.  Other income includes income from parking spaces leased to tenants, income from tenants for additional services arranged for by the Company and income from tenants for early lease terminations.

Allowance for
Doubtful Accounts
Management periodically performs a detailed review of amounts due from tenants to determine if accounts receivable balances are impaired based on factors affecting the collectability of those balances.  Management’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts requires management to exercise significant judgment about the timing, frequency and severity of collection losses, which affects the allowance and net income.

Income and
Other Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).  As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to corporate federal income tax (including alternative minimum tax) on net income that it currently distributes to its shareholders, provided that the Company satisfies certain organizational and operational requirements including the requirement to distribute at least 90 percent of its REIT taxable income to its shareholders.  The Company has elected to treat certain of its corporate subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries (each a “TRS”).  In general, a TRS of the Company may perform additional services for tenants of the Company and generally may engage in any real estate or non-real estate related business (except for the operation or management of health care facilities or lodging facilities or the providing to any person, under a franchise, license or otherwise, rights to any brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated).  A TRS is subject to corporate federal income tax.  If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates.  The Company is subject to certain state and local taxes.

Pursuant to the amended provisions related to uncertain tax provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company recognized no material adjustments regarding its tax accounting treatment.  The Company expects to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as income tax expense, which is included in general and administrative expense.

In the normal course of business, the Company or one of its subsidiaries is subject to examination by federal, state and local jurisdictions in which it operates, where applicable.  As of December 31, 2011, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under the statute of limitations are generally from the year 2007 forward.

Earnings
 
Per Share
The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”).  Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, where such exercise or conversion would result in a lower EPS amount.

Dividends and
 
Distributions
Payable
The dividends and distributions payable at December 31, 2011 represents dividends payable to common shareholders (87,800,047 shares), and distributions payable to noncontrolling interest common unitholders of the Operating Partnership (12,197,122 common units) for all such holders of record as of January 5, 2012 with respect to the fourth quarter 2011.  The fourth quarter 2011 common stock dividends and common unit distributions of $0.45 per common share and unit were approved by the Board of Directors on December 6, 2011.  The common stock dividends and common unit distributions payable were paid on January 13, 2012.

The dividends and distributions payable at December 31, 2010 represents dividends payable to preferred shareholders (10,000 shares) and common shareholders (79,605,542 shares), and distributions payable to noncontrolling interest common unitholders of the Operating Partnership (13,007,668 common units) for all such holders of record as of January  5, 2011 with respect to the fourth quarter 2010. The fourth quarter 2010 preferred stock dividends of $50.00 per share, common stock dividends and common unit distributions of $0.45 per common share and unit were approved by the Board of Directors on December 7, 2010.  The common stock dividends, common unit distributions and preferred stock dividends payable were paid on January 14, 2011.

The Company has determined that the $1.80 dividend per common share paid during the year ended December 31, 2011 represented approximately 77 percent ordinary income and approximately 23 percent return of capital to its stockholders; the $1.80 dividend per common share paid during the year ended December 31, 2010 represented approximately 75 percent ordinary income and approximately 25 percent return of capital to its stockholders; and the $1.99 dividend per common share paid during the year ended December 31, 2009 represented approximately 93 percent ordinary income and approximately 7 percent return of capital to its stockholders.

Costs Incurred
 
For Stock
 
Issuances
Costs incurred in connection with the Company’s stock issuances are reflected as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.

Stock
 
Compensation
The Company accounts for stock options and restricted stock awards granted prior to 2002 using the intrinsic value method prescribed in the previously existing accounting guidance on accounting for stock issued to employees.  Under this guidance, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant over the exercise price of the option granted.  Compensation cost for stock options is recognized ratably over the vesting period.  The Company’s policy is to grant options with an exercise price equal to the quoted closing market price of the Company’s stock on the business day preceding the grant date.  Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized under the Company’s stock option plans for the granting of stock options made prior to 2002.  Restricted stock awards granted prior to 2002 are valued at the vesting dates of such awards with compensation cost for such awards recognized ratably over the vesting period.

In 2002, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation.  In 2006, the Company adopted the amended guidance, which did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.  These provisions require that the estimated fair value of restricted stock (“Restricted Stock Awards”) and stock options at the grant date be amortized ratably into expense over the appropriate vesting period.  The Company recorded restricted stock expense of $4,123,000, $4,121,000 and $4,097,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES

PLAZA VIII AND IX ASSOCIATES, L.L.C.
Plaza VIII and IX Associates, L.L.C. is a joint venture between the Company and Columbia Development Company, L.L.C. (“Columbia”), which owns land for future development, located on the Hudson River waterfront in Jersey City, New Jersey, adjacent to the Company’s Harborside Financial Center office complex.  The Company and Columbia each hold a 50 percent interest in the venture.  The venture owns undeveloped land currently used as a parking facility.

SOUTH PIER AT HARBORSIDE – HOTEL
The Company has a joint venture with Hyatt Corporation (“Hyatt”) which owns a 350-room hotel on the South Pier at Harborside Financial Center, Jersey City, New Jersey.  The Company owns a 50 percent interest in the venture.

RED BANK CORPORATE PLAZA
The Company has a joint venture with The PRC Group, which owns Red Bank Corporate Plaza, a 92,878 square foot office building located in Red Bank, New Jersey.  The property is fully leased to Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc. through September 30, 2017.  The Company holds a 50 percent interest in the venture.

The venture had a $20.3 million loan with a commercial bank collateralized by the office property, which bore interest at a rate of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 125 basis points and was scheduled to mature in May 2011. In May 2011, the venture paid the lender $1.7 million and refinanced the remainder of the loan.  The new loan, with a balance of $18.1 million at December 31, 2011, bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 300 basis points and matures on May 17, 2016.  LIBOR was 0.29 percent at December 31, 2011.  The loan includes contingent guarantees for a portion of the principal by the Company based on certain conditions.  On September 22, 2011, the interest rate on 75 percent of the loan was fixed at 3.99375 percent effective from October 17, 2011 through maturity.

The Company performs management, leasing, and other services for the property owned by the joint venture and recognized $100,000, $91,000 and $92,600 in fees for such services in the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

MACK-GREEN-GALE LLC/GRAMERCY AGREEMENT
On May 9, 2006, the Company entered into a joint venture, Mack-Green-Gale LLC and subsidiaries (“Mack-Green”), with SL Green, pursuant to which Mack-Green held an approximate 96 percent interest in and acted as general partner of Gale SLG NJ Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “OPLP”).  The Company’s acquisition cost for its interest in Mack-Green was approximately $125 million, which was funded primarily through borrowing under the Company’s revolving credit facility.  At the time, the OPLP owned 100 percent of entities (“Property Entities”) which owned 25 office properties (the “OPLP Properties”) which aggregated 3.5 million square feet (consisting of 17 office properties aggregating 2.3 million square feet located in New Jersey and eight properties aggregating 1.2 million square feet located in Troy, Michigan).  In December 2007, the OPLP sold its eight properties located in Troy, Michigan for $83.5 million.  The venture recognized a loss of approximately $22.3 million from the sale.

As defined in the Mack-Green operating agreement, the Company shared decision-making equally with SL Green regarding:  (i) all major decisions involving the operations of Mack-Green; and (ii) overall general partner responsibilities in operating the OPLP.

The Mack-Green operating agreement generally provided for profits and losses to be allocated as follows:

 
(i)
99 percent of Mack-Green’s share of the profits and losses from 10 specific OPLP Properties allocable to the Company and one percent allocable to SL Green;
 
(ii)
one percent of Mack-Green’s share of the profits and losses from eight specific OPLP Properties and its minor interest in four office properties allocable to the Company and 99 percent allocable to SL Green; and
(iii)      50 percent of all other profits and losses allocable to the Company and 50 percent allocable to SL Green.

Substantially all of the OPLP Properties were encumbered by mortgage loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $276.3 million at March 31, 2009.  $185.0 million of the mortgage loans bore interest at a weighted average fixed interest rate of 6.26 percent per annum and matured at various times through May 2016.

Six of the OPLP Properties (the “Portfolio Properties”) were encumbered by $90.3 million of mortgage loans which bore interest at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 275 basis points per annum and were scheduled to mature in May 2009.  The floating rate mortgage loans were provided to the six entities which owned the Portfolio Properties (collectively, the “Portfolio Entities”) by Gramercy, which was a related party of SL Green.  Based on the venture’s anticipated holding period pertaining to the Portfolio Properties, the venture believed that the carrying amounts of these properties may not have been recoverable at December 31, 2008.  Accordingly, as the venture determined that its carrying value of these properties exceeded the estimated fair value, it recorded an impairment charge of approximately $32.3 million as of December 31, 2008. 
 
 
 
79

 
 

 
On April 29, 2009, the Company acquired the remaining interests in Mack-Green from SL Green.  As a result, the Company owns 100 percent of Mack-Green.  Additionally, on April 29, 2009, the mortgage loans with Gramercy on the Portfolio Properties (the “Gramercy Agreement”) were modified to provide for, among other things, interest to accrue at the current rate of LIBOR plus 275 basis points per annum, with the interest pay rate capped at 3.15 percent per annum.  Under the Gramercy Agreement, the payment of debt service is subordinate to the payment of operating expenses.  Interest at the pay rate is payable only out of funds generated by the Portfolio Properties and only to the extent that the Portfolio Properties’ operating expenses have been paid, with any accrued unpaid interest above the pay rate serving to increase the balance of the amounts due at the termination of the agreement.  Any excess funds after payment of debt service generally will be escrowed and available for future capital and leasing costs, as well as to cover future cash flow shortfalls, as appropriate.  The Gramercy Agreement was scheduled to terminate on May 9, 2011.  Approximately six months in advance of the end of the term of the Gramercy Agreement, the Portfolio Entities are to provide estimates of each property’s fair market value (“FMV”).  Gramercy has the right to accept or reject the FMV.  If Gramercy rejects the FMV, Gramercy must market the property for sale in cooperation with the Portfolio Entities and must approve the ultimate sale.  However, Gramercy has no obligation to market a Portfolio Property if the FMV is less than the allocated amount due, including accrued, unpaid interest. If any Portfolio Property is not sold, the Portfolio Entities have agreed to give a deed in lieu of foreclosure, unless the FMV was equal to or greater than the allocated amount due for such Portfolio Property, in which case they can elect to have that Portfolio Property released by paying the FMV.  If Gramercy accepts the FMV, the Portfolio Property will be released from the Gramercy Agreement upon payment of the FMV.  Under the direction of Gramercy, the Company continues to perform management, leasing, and construction services for the Portfolio Properties at market terms.  The Portfolio Entities have a participation interest which provides for sharing 50 percent of any amount realized in excess of the allocated amounts due for each Portfolio Property.  On November 5, 2010, the Portfolio Entities that owned the remaining four unconsolidated Portfolio Properties provided estimates of the properties’ fair market values to Gramercy, pursuant to the Gramercy Agreement.  On May 5, 2011, the Gramercy Agreement was extended to December 31, 2011.  On November 16, 2011, the Gramercy Agreement was further extended to April 30, 2012.

As the Company acquired SL Green’s interests in Mack-Green, the Company owns 100 percent of Mack-Green and is consolidating Mack-Green as of the closing date.  Mack-Green, in turn, has been and will continue consolidating the OPLP as Mack-Green’s approximate 96 percent, general partner ownership interest in the OPLP remained unchanged as of the closing date.  Additionally, as of the closing date, the OPLP continues to consolidate its Property Entities not subject to the Gramercy Agreement, as its 100-percent ownership and rights regarding these entities were unchanged in the transaction.  The OPLP does not consolidate the Portfolio Entities subject to the Gramercy Agreement, as the Gramercy Agreement is considered a reconsideration event under the provisions of ASC 810, Consolidation, and accordingly, the Portfolio Entities were deemed to be variable interest entities for which the OPLP was not considered the primary beneficiary based on the Gramercy Agreement as described above.  As a result of the SLG Transactions, the Company has an unconsolidated joint venture interest in the Portfolio Properties.

On March 31, 2010, the venture sold one of its unconsolidated Portfolio Properties subject to the Gramercy Agreement, 1280 Wall Street West, a 121,314 square foot office property, located in Lyndhurst, New Jersey, for approximately $13.9 million, which was primarily used to pay down mortgage loans pursuant to the Gramercy Agreement.

On December 17, 2010, the venture repaid the $26.8 million allocated loan amount of one of the unconsolidated Portfolio Properties which was subject to the Gramercy Agreement, One Grande Commons, a 198,376 square foot office property, located in Bridgewater, New Jersey.  Concurrent with the repayment, the venture placed $11 million mortgage financing on the property obtained from a bank.  As a result of the repayment of the existing mortgage loan, the venture, which is consolidated by the Company, obtained a controlling interest and is consolidating the office property.

The Company performs management, leasing, and construction services for properties owned by the unconsolidated joint ventures and recognized $508,000, $861,000 and $2.3 million in income (net of $0, $0 and $1.1 million in direct costs) for such services in the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

GE/GALE FUNDING LLC (Princeton Forrestal Village)
On May 9, 2006, the Company acquired a 10 percent indirect interest in the entity (“GE Gale”) which owned Princeton Forrestal Village, a mixed-use, office/retail complex aggregating 527,015 square feet and located in Plainsboro, New Jersey (“Princeton Forrestal Village” or “PFV”) for $1.8 million.

On December 16, 2010, GE Gale sold PFV for $55 million, realizing a gain on the sale of $207,000 (of which the Company’s share of $41,000 is included in equity in earnings for the year ended December 31, 2010).

The Company had performed management services for PFV and recognized $87,000 for such services in the year ended December 31, 2011 and management, leasing, and other services for PFV prior to its sale and recognized $1.4 million and $1.1 million in income for such services in the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

On June 15, 2006, the Company acquired an 8.33 percent indirect interest in 100 Kimball Drive LLC (“100 Kimball”), which developed and placed in service a 175,000 square foot office property that is leased to a single tenant, located at 100 Kimball Drive, Parsippany, New Jersey (the “Kimball Property”).

On December 10, 2010, 100 Kimball sold its office property for approximately $60 million, realizing a gain on the sale of $19.8 million (of which the Company’s share of $1.6 million is included in equity in earnings for the year ended December 31, 2010).  As a result of the sale the Company received a distribution of approximately $5.4 million, of which $2.4 million was paid out pursuant to the Participation Rights (see Note 16: Noncontrolling Interests in Subsidiaries – Participation Rights).

The Company had performed management, leasing, and other services for the property prior to its sale and recognized $262,000 and $234,000 in income for such services in the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

12 VREELAND ASSOCIATES, L.L.C.
On September 8, 2006, the Company entered into a joint venture to form M-C Vreeland, LLC (“M-C Vreeland”), for the sole purpose of acquiring 50 percent membership interest in 12 Vreeland Associates, L.L.C., an entity owning an office property located at 12 Vreeland Road, Florham Park, New Jersey.

The operating agreement of M-C Vreeland provides, among other things, for the Participation Rights (see Note 16: Noncontrolling Interests in Subsidiaries – Participation Rights).

BOSTON-DOWNTOWN CROSSING
In October 2006, the Company entered into a joint venture with affiliates of Vornado Realty LP and JP Morgan Chase Bank to acquire and redevelop the Filenes property located in the Downtown Crossing district of Boston, Massachusetts (the “Filenes Property”).  The venture was organized in contemplation of developing and converting the Filenes Property into a condominium consisting of a retail unit, an office unit, a parking unit, a hotel unit and a residential unit, aggregating 1.2 million square feet.  The Company, through subsidiaries, separately holds approximately a 15 percent indirect ownership interest in each of the units.  The project is subject to governmental approvals.

The venture acquired the Filenes Property on January 29, 2007, for approximately $100 million.

Distributions will generally be in proportion to its members’ respective ownership interests and, depending upon the development unit, promotes will be available to specified partners after the achievement of certain internal rates of return ranging from 10 to 15 percent.

The joint venture has suspended its plans for the development of the Filenes Property.  The venture recorded an impairment charge of approximately $69.5 million on its development project in 2008.

(“M-C Jefferson”) for the sole purpose of acquiring an 8.33 percent indirect interest in One Jefferson Road LLC (“One Jefferson”), which developed and placed in service a 100,010 square foot office property at One Jefferson Road, Parsippany, New Jersey, (“the Jefferson Property”).  The property has been fully leased to a single tenant starting in 2010 through August 2025.

The terms of the unsecured facility include certain restrictions and covenants which limit, among other things the incurrence of additional indebtedness, the incurrence of liens and the disposition of real estate properties (to the extent that: (i) such property dispositions cause the Company to default on any of the financial ratios of the facility described below, or (ii) the property dispositions are completed while the Company is under an event of default under the facility, unless, under certain circumstances, such disposition is being carried out to cure such default), and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to the maximum leverage ratio, the maximum amount of secured indebtedness, the minimum amount of tangible net worth, the minimum amount of fixed charge coverage, the maximum amount of unsecured indebtedness, the minimum amount of unencumbered property interest coverage and certain investment limitations.  If an event of default has occurred and is continuing, the Company will not make any excess distributions except to enable the Company to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Code.

The lending group for the credit facility consists of: JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent; Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent; Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas; US Bank National Association and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as documentation agents; Capital One, N.A.; Citicorp North America, Inc.; Comerica Bank; PNC Bank, National Association; SunTrust Bank; The Bank of New York Mellon; The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, LTD., as managing agents; and Compass Bank; Branch Banking and Trust Company; TD Bank, N.A.; Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania; Chang Hwa Commercial Bank, LTD., New York Branch; Mega International Commercial Bank Co., LTD., New York Branch; First Commercial Bank, New York Branch; and Hua Nan Commercial Bank, LTD., New York Agency, as participants.

As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $56 million and $228 million, respectively, under its unsecured revolving credit facility.

Through October 20, 2011, the Company had a $775 million unsecured revolving credit facility.  The interest rate on outstanding borrowings was LIBOR plus 55 basis points.

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT 401(k) PLANS

Employees of the Company, who meet certain minimum age and service requirements, are eligible to participate in the Mack-Cali Realty Corporation 401(k) Savings/Retirement Plan (the “401(k) Plan”).  Eligible employees may elect to defer from one percent up to 60 percent of their annual compensation on a pre-tax basis to the 401(k) Plan, subject to certain limitations imposed by federal law.  The amounts contributed by employees are immediately vested and non-forfeitable.  The Company may make discretionary matching or profit sharing contributions to the 401(k) Plan on behalf of eligible participants in any plan year.  Participants are always 100 percent vested in their pre-tax contributions and will begin vesting in any matching or profit sharing contributions made on their behalf after two years of service with the Company at a rate of 20 percent per year, becoming 100 percent vested after a total of six years of service with the Company.  All contributions are allocated as a percentage of compensation of the eligible participants for the Plan year.  The assets of the 401(k) Plan are held in trust and a separate account is established for each participant.  A participant may receive a distribution of his or her vested account balance in the 401(k) Plan in a single sum or in installment payments upon his or her termination of service with the Company.  The Company did not make any contributions nor recognize any expense for the 401(k) Plan for each of the three years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

DISCLOSURE OF FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following disclosure of estimated fair value was determined by management using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies.  However, considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value.  Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the financial instruments at December 31, 2011 and 2010.  The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other liabilities are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair values as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, consisting of senior unsecured notes, an unsecured revolving credit facility and mortgages, loans payable and other obligations aggregate approximately $2.1 billion and $2.2 billion as compared to the book value of approximately $1.9 billion and $2.1 billion as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is estimated on a level 2 basis (as provided by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures), using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and maturities.  The fair value of the mortgage debt and the unsecured notes was determined by discounting the future contractual interest and principal payments by a market rate.

Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.  Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since December 31, 2011 and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

TAX ABATEMENT AGREEMENTS
Pursuant to agreements with the City of Jersey City, New Jersey, the Company is required to make payments in lieu of property taxes (“PILOT”) on certain of its properties located in Jersey City, as follows:

The Harborside Plaza 4-A agreement, as amended, which commenced in 2002, is for a term of 20 years.  The PILOT is equal to two percent of Total Project Costs, as defined.  Total Project Costs are $49.5 million.  The PILOT totaled $990,000, $1.2 million and $1.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The Harborside Plaza 5 agreement, as amended, which commenced in 2002, is for a term of 20 years.  The PILOT is equal to two percent of Total Project Costs, as defined.  Total Project Costs are $170.9 million.  The PILOT totaled $3.4 million, $3.8 million and $3.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

At the conclusion of the above-referenced PILOT agreements, it is expected that the properties will be assessed by the municipality and be subject to real estate taxes at the then prevailing rates.

LITIGATION
The Company is a defendant in litigation arising in the normal course of its business activities.  Management does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a materially adverse effect upon the Company’s financial condition taken as whole.

Ground lease expense incurred by the Company during the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 amounted to $406,000, $490,000 and $734,000, respectively.

OTHER
The Company may not dispose of or distribute certain of its properties, currently comprising seven properties with an aggregate net book value of approximately $131.6 million, which were originally contributed by certain unrelated common unitholders, without the express written consent of such common unitholders, as applicable, except in a manner which does not result in recognition of any built-in-gain (which may result in an income tax liability) or which reimburses the appropriate specific common unitholders for the tax consequences of the recognition of such built-in-gains (collectively, the “Property Lock-Ups”).  The aforementioned restrictions do not apply in the event that the Company sells all of its properties or in connection with a sale transaction which the Company’s Board of Directors determines is reasonably necessary to satisfy a material monetary default on any unsecured debt, judgment or liability of the Company or to cure any material monetary default on any mortgage secured by a property.  The Property Lock-Ups expire periodically through 2016.  Upon the expiration of the Property Lock-Ups, the Company is generally required to use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any sale, transfer or other disposition of the subject properties from resulting in the recognition of built-in gain to the specific common unitholders, which include members of the Mack Group (which includes William L. Mack, Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors; David S. Mack, director; Earle I. Mack, a former director; and Mitchell E. Hersh, president, chief executive officer and director), the Robert Martin Group (which includes Robert F. Weinberg, director; and Timothy M. Jones, former president), the Cali Group (which includes John R. Cali, director, and John J. Cali, a former director).  129 of the Company’s properties, with an aggregate net book value of approximately $1.7 billion, have lapsed restrictions and are subject to these conditions.

In August 2011, the Company commenced construction of a 203,000 square foot office building which is pre-leased for 15 years and three months, subject to two extension options of between five and 10 years each, to Wyndham Worldwide. Wyndham currently leases space in neighboring buildings in the Mack-Cali Business Campus in Parsippany, New Jersey.  The new building is expected to be delivered to the tenant in the first quarter of 2013 at a total estimated cost of approximately $53.5 million (of which the Company has incurred $14.4 million through December 31, 2011).

On December 5, 2011, the Company entered into a development agreement (the “Development Agreement”) with Ironstate Development LLC (“Ironstate”) for the development of up to 2 million square feet of residential space with associated parking and ancillary retail space on land owned by the Company at its Harborside Financial Center complex in Jersey City, New Jersey (the “Harborside Residential Project”).  The first phase of the project is expected to consist of a parking pedestal to support two high-rise towers of approximately 500 apartment units each, and estimated to cost approximately $400 million.  The parties anticipate a fourth quarter 2012 ground breaking and the project will be ready for occupancy within approximately two years thereafter.

Pursuant to the Development Agreement, the Company and Ironstate shall co-develop the Harborside Residential Project with Ironstate responsible for obtaining all required development permits and approvals.  Major decisions with respect to the Harborside Residential Project will require the consent of the Company and Ironstate.  The Company and Ironstate will have 85 and 15 percent interests, respectively, in the Harborside Residential Project.  The Company will receive capital credit of $30 per approved developable square foot for its land.
 
 
 
91

 
 

 
The Development Agreement is subject to obtaining required approvals and development financing as well as numerous customary undertakings, covenants, obligations and conditions.  The Company has the right to reasonably determine that any phase of the Harborside Residential Project is not economically viable and may elect not to proceed, subject to certain conditions, with no further obligations to Ironstate other than reimbursement to Ironstate of all or a portion of the costs incurred by it to obtain any required approvals.

In January 2012, Michael A. Grossman, executive vice president, left the Company.  The Company expects to take a charge of approximately $1.4 million in the first quarter 2012 related to his departure.


14.  
TENANT LEASES

The Properties are leased to tenants under operating leases with various expiration dates through 2033.  Substantially all of the leases provide for annual base rents plus recoveries and escalation charges based upon the tenant’s proportionate share of and/or increases in real estate taxes and certain operating costs, as defined, and the pass-through of charges for electrical usage.

Future minimum rentals to be received under non-cancelable operating leases at December 31, 2011 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

MACK-CALI REALTY CORPORATION STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

To maintain its qualification as a REIT, not more than 50 percent in value of the outstanding shares of the Company may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals at any time during the last half of any taxable year of the Company, other than its initial taxable year (defined to include certain entities), applying certain constructive ownership rules.  To help ensure that the Company will not fail this test, the Company’s Charter provides, among other things, certain restrictions on the transfer of common stock to prevent further concentration of stock ownership.  Moreover, to evidence compliance with these requirements, the Company must maintain records that disclose the actual ownership of its outstanding common stock and demands written statements each year from the holders of record of designated percentages of its common stock requesting the disclosure of the beneficial owners of such common stock.

PREFERRED STOCK
The Company had 10,000 shares of eight-percent Series C cumulative redeemable perpetual preferred stock issued and outstanding (“Series C Preferred Stock”) in the form of 1,000,000 depositary shares ($25 stated value per depositary share).  Each depositary share represented 1/100th of a share of Series C Preferred Stock.

The Series C Preferred Stock had preference rights with respect to liquidation and distributions over the common stock. Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, except under certain limited conditions, were not entitled to vote on any matters. In the event of a cumulative arrearage equal to six quarterly dividends, holders of the Series C Preferred Stock would have the right to elect two additional members to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors until dividends have been paid in full.  At December 31, 2011, there were no dividends in arrears.  The Series C Preferred Stock was essentially on an equivalent basis in priority with the preferred units of the Operating Partnership (See Note 16: Noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries).
 
 
 
92

 

 
On October 28, 2011, the Company redeemed its Series C Preferred Stock, at a price of $2,500 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends through the date prior to the redemption date.  The write off of preferred stock issuance costs of $164,000 is included in preferred stock dividends for the year ended December 31, 2011.

COMMON STOCK
On February 18, 2011, the Company completed a public offering of 7,187,500 shares of common stock and used the net proceeds, which totaled approximately $227.4 million (after offering costs) primarily to repay borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility.

SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM
On September 12, 2007, the Board of Directors authorized an increase to the Company’s repurchase program under which the Company was permitted to purchase up to $150 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock (“Repurchase Program”).  The Company has purchased and retired 2,893,630 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate cost of approximately $104 million through December 31, 2011 under the Repurchase Program (none of which has occurred in 2010 and 2011).  The Company has a remaining authorization to repurchase up to an additional $46 million of its outstanding common stock, which it may repurchase from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing prices or through privately negotiated transactions.

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT AND STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
The Company has a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the “DRIP”) which commenced in March 1999 under which 5.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock have been reserved for future issuance.  The DRIP provides for automatic reinvestment of all or a portion of a participant’s dividends from the Company’s shares of common stock.  The DRIP also permits participants to make optional cash investments up to $5,000 a month without restriction and, if the Company waives this limit, for additional amounts subject to certain restrictions and other conditions set forth in the DRIP prospectus filed as part of the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the 5.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance under the DRIP.

STOCK OPTION PLANS
In May 2004, the Company established the 2004 Incentive Stock Plan under which a total of 2,500,000 shares have been reserved for issuance.  No options have been granted through December 31, 2011 under this plan.  In September 2000, the Company established the 2000 Employee Stock Option Plan (“2000 Employee Plan”) and the Amended and Restated 2000 Director Stock Option Plan (“2000 Director Plan”).  In May 2002, shareholders of the Company approved amendments to both plans to increase the total shares reserved for issuance under both of the 2000 plans from 2,700,000 to 4,350,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (from 2,500,000 to 4,000,000 shares under the 2000 Employee Plan and from 200,000 to 350,000 shares under the 2000 Director Plan).  In 1994, and as subsequently amended, the Company established the Mack-Cali Employee Stock Option Plan (“Employee Plan”) and the Mack-Cali Director Stock Option Plan (“Director Plan”) under which a total of 5,380,188 shares (subject to adjustment) of the Company’s common stock had been reserved for issuance (4,980,188 shares under the Employee Plan and 400,000 shares under the Director Plan).  As the Employee Plan and Director Plan expired in 2004, and the 2000 Employee Plan and 2000 Director Plan expired in September 2010, stock options may no longer be issued under those plans.  Stock options granted under the Employee Plan in 1994 and 1995 became exercisable over a three-year period.  Stock options granted under the 2000 Employee Plan and those options granted subsequent to 1995 under the Employee Plan became exercisable over a five-year period. All stock options granted under both the 2000 Director Plan and Director Plan became exercisable in one year.  All options were granted at the fair market value at the dates of grant and have terms of ten years.  As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the stock options outstanding, which were all exercisable, had a weighted average remaining contractual life of approximately 0.9 and 1.7 years, respectively.

Cash received from options exercised under all stock option plans was $3.0 million, $1.5 million and $504,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 respectively.  The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $496,000, $349,000 and $123,000, respectively.  The Company has a policy of issuing new shares to satisfy stock option exercises.

The Company recognized no stock options expense for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had $2.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock compensation granted under the Company’s stock compensation plans.  That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of one year.

STOCK COMPENSATION
The Company has issued stock awards (“Restricted Stock Awards”) to officers, certain other employees, and nonemployee members of the Board of Directors of the Company, which allow the holders to each receive a certain amount of shares of the Company’s common stock generally over a one to seven-year vesting period, of which 187,447 unvested shares were outstanding at December 31, 2011.  Of the outstanding Restricted Stock Awards issued to executive officers and senior management, 98,524 are contingent upon the Company meeting certain performance goals to be set by the Executive Compensation and Option Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company each year, with the remaining based on time and service. All Restricted Stock Awards provided to the officers and certain other employees were issued under the 2004 Incentive Stock Plan, 2000 Employee Plan and the Employee Plan. Restricted Stock Awards provided to directors were issued under the 2004 Incentive Stock Plan and the 2000 Director Plan.

DEFERRED STOCK COMPENSATION PLAN FOR DIRECTORS
The Amended and Restated Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors, which commenced January 1, 1999, allows non-employee directors of the Company to elect to defer up to 100 percent of their annual retainer fee into deferred stock units.  The deferred stock units are convertible into an equal number of shares of common stock upon the directors’ termination of service from the Board of Directors or a change in control of the Company, as defined in the plan.  Deferred stock units are credited to each director quarterly using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the applicable dividend record date for the respective quarter.  Each participating director’s account is also credited for an equivalent amount of deferred stock units based on the dividend rate for each quarter.

During the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, 14,886, 12,563 and 15,082 deferred stock units were earned, respectively.  As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, there were 98,009 and 84,236 director stock units outstanding, respectively.

EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

Noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries in the accompanying consolidated financial statements relate to (i) preferred units (“Preferred Units”) and common units in the Operating Partnership, held by parties other than the Company, and (ii) interests in consolidated joint ventures for the portion of such properties not owned by the Company.

OPERATING PARTNERSHIP

Preferred Units
In connection with the Company’s issuance of $25 million of Series C Preferred Stock, the Company acquired from the Operating Partnership $25 million of Series C Preferred Units (the “Series C Preferred Units”), which had terms essentially identical to the Series C Preferred Stock.  In connection with the Company’s redemption of Series C Preferred Stock on October 28, 2011, the Operating Partnership redeemed from the company all issued and outstanding Series C Preferred Units.  See Note 15: Mack-Cali Realty Corporation Stockholders’ Equity – Preferred Stock.

Common Units
Certain individuals and entities own common units in the Operating Partnership.  A common unit and a share of Common Stock of the Company have substantially the same economic characteristics in as much as they effectively share equally in the net income or loss of the Operating Partnership.  Common unitholders have the right to redeem their common units, subject to certain restrictions.  The redemption is required to be satisfied in shares of Common Stock, cash, or a combination thereof, calculated as follows:  one share of the Company’s Common Stock, or cash equal to the fair market value of a share of the Company’s Common Stock at the time of redemption, for each common unit.  The Company, in its sole discretion, determines the form of redemption of common units (i.e., whether a common unitholder receives Common Stock, cash, or any combination thereof).  If the Company elects to satisfy the redemption with shares of Common Stock as opposed to cash, it is obligated to issue shares of its Common Stock to the redeeming unitholder.  Regardless of the rights described above, the common unitholders may not put their units for cash to the Company or the Operating Partnership under any circumstances.  When a unitholder redeems a common unit, noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership is reduced and Mack-Cali Realty Corporation Stockholders’ equity is increased.

Unit Transactions
The following table sets forth the changes in noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries which relate to the common units in the Operating Partnership for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009:

Pursuant to ASC 810, Consolidation, on the accounting and reporting for noncontrolling interests and changes in ownership interests of a subsidiary, changes in a parent’s ownership interest (and transactions with noncontrolling interest unitholders in the subsidiary) while the parent retains its controlling interest in its subsidiary should be accounted for as equity transactions.  The carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest shall be adjusted to reflect the change in its ownership interest in the subsidiary, with the offset to equity attributable to the parent.  Accordingly, as a result of equity transactions which caused changes in ownership percentages between Mack-Cali Realty Corporation stockholders’ equity and noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company has increased noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership and decreased additional paid-in capital in Mack-Cali Realty Corporation stockholders’ equity by approximately $9.4 million as of December 31, 2011.

NONCONTROLLING INTEREST OWNERSHIP
As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the noncontrolling interest common unitholders owned 12.2 percent and 14.0 percent of the Operating Partnership, respectively.

CONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES
The Company has ownership interests in certain joint ventures which it consolidates.  Various entities and/or individuals hold noncontrolling interests in these ventures.

PARTICIPATION RIGHTS
The Company’s interests in certain real estate projects (four office buildings aggregating 860,246 square feet and two future developments) acquired in 2006 each provide for the initial distributions of net cash flow solely to the Company, and thereafter, other parties, including Mark Yeager, a former executive officer of the Company, have participation rights (“Participation Rights”) in 50 percent of the excess net cash flow remaining after the distribution to the Company of the aggregate amount equal to the sum of: (a) the Company’s capital contributions, plus (b) an internal rate of return (“IRR”) of 10 percent per annum.


17.  
SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company operates in two business segments: (i) real estate and (ii) construction services.  The Company provides leasing, property and facilities management, acquisition, development, construction and tenant-related services for its portfolio.  In May 2006, in conjunction with the Company’s acquisition of the Gale Company and related businesses, the Company acquired a business specializing solely in construction and related services whose operations comprise the Company’s construction services segment.  The Company had no revenues from foreign countries recorded for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009.  The Company had no long lived assets in foreign locations as of December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009.  The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies, excluding depreciation and amortization.

The Company evaluates performance based upon net operating income from the combined properties in the real estate segment and net operating income from its construction services segment.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

William L. Mack, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company, David S. Mack, a director of the Company, and Earle I. Mack, a former director of the Company, are the executive officers, directors and stockholders of a corporation that leases approximately 7,801 square feet at one of the Company’s office properties on a month-to-month basis.  The Company has recognized $253,000, $250,000 and $255,000 in revenue under this lease for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and had $0 accounts receivable from the corporation as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

The Company has conducted business with certain entities (“RMC Entity” or “RMC Entities”), whose principals include Timothy M. Jones (a former president of the Company), Martin S. Berger (former member of the Company’s Board of Directors) and Robert F. Weinberg (current member of the Company’s Board of Directors).  In connection with the Company’s acquisition of 65 Class A properties from The Robert Martin Company (“Robert Martin”) on January 31, 1997, as subsequently modified, the Company granted Robert Martin the right to designate one seat on the Company’s Board of Directors (“RM Board Seat”), which right has since expired.  The RM Board Seat had historically been shared between Robert F. Weinberg and Martin S. Berger, each of whom had agreed that, for so long as either of them serves on the Board of Directors, that such board seat would be rotated among Mr. Berger and Mr. Weinberg annually at the time of each annual meeting of stockholders.  At the Company’s 2003 annual meeting of stockholders, Mr. Berger was elected to the Board of Directors and he continued to share his board seat with Mr. Weinberg.  At the Company’s 2006 annual meeting of stockholders, Mr. Weinberg was elected to the Board of Directors and he continued to share his board seat with Mr. Berger.  At the Company’s 2009 annual meeting of stockholders, Mr. Berger was elected to the Board of Directors and he continued to share his board seat with Mr. Weinberg.  On September 13, 2011, the Company was advised that Mr. Berger had died on September 12, 2011. At its regularly scheduled meeting on September 14, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Mr. Weinberg to fill the vacancy of Mr. Berger’s unexpired term as a Class III director.   The business that the Company has conducted with RMC Entities was as follows:

(1)  
The Company provides management, leasing and construction-related services to properties in which RMC Entities have an ownership interest.  The Company recognized approximately $1.2 million, $1.4 million and $1.6 million in revenue from RMC Entities for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, the Company had $92,000 and $75,000 in accounts receivable from RMC Entities.

(2)  
An RMC Entity leases space at one of the Company’s office properties for approximately 4,860 square feet on a month-to-month basis.  The Company has recognized $130,000, $137,000 and $140,000, in revenue under this lease for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and had $0 accounts receivable due from the RMC Entity, as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

The Company provides administrative support and related services to John J. Cali, who served as the Chairman Emeritus and a Board member of the Company, for which it was reimbursed $97,000, $101,000 and $115,000 from Mr. Cali for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  An affiliate of Mr. Cali has leases totaling 2,631 square feet of space at one of the Company’s office properties, which are scheduled to expire at the end of 2014.  The Company recognized approximately $69,000, $68,000 and $68,000 in total revenue under the leases for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and had $15,000 and $17,000 in accounts receivable from the affiliate as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.
