INFORMATION ABOUT MACK-CALI REALTY CORPORATION
We, Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation, are a
fully-integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment
trust, or "REIT." We own predominantly Class A office and office/flex buildings
generally located in the Northeast and Southwest. Mack-Cali Realty, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership, conducts substantially all of the operations
relating to such properties.
As of September 30, 1998, we owned and operated, directly or indirectly, 247
properties, plus developable land, aggregating approximately 27.6 million square
feet. Our properties include 235 office and office/flex buildings totaling
approximately 27.2 million square feet, six industrial/warehouse properties
containing an aggregate of approximately 387,400 square feet, two multi-family
residential properties consisting of 453 units, two stand-alone retail
properties and two land leases. Our 235 office and office/flex properties are
comprised of 156 office buildings containing an aggregate of 23.1million square
feet and 79 office/flex buildings containing an aggregate of approximately 4.1
million square feet. We believe that our properties have excellent locations and
access and are well-maintained and professionally managed. As a result, we
believe that our properties attract high quality tenants and achieve among the
highest rental, occupancy and tenant retention rates within their markets. As of
September 30, 1998, over 2,300 tenants leased approximately 96.1 percent of the
office, office/flex and industrial/warehouse properties.
Our strategy is to acquire, develop and own office properties in markets and
sub-markets where we are, or can become, a significant and preferred owner and
operator. We will continue this strategy by expanding, primarily through
acquisitions, into markets and sub-markets where we have, or can achieve,
similar status. Because rental and occupancy rates in office buildings in such
markets and sub-markets continue to increase, we believe that such markets and
sub-markets present significant opportunities for growth. We also may develop
properties in such markets and sub-markets, particularly with a view towards
potential utilization of certain vacant land recently acquired or on which we
hold options. We believe that our extensive market knowledge gives us a
significant competitive advantage, which is further enhanced by our strong
reputation for and emphasis on delivering highly responsive management services,
including direct and continued access to our senior management.
Consistent with our growth strategy, in December 1997, we acquired 54 Class
A office properties, aggregating approximately 9.2 million square feet, from The
Mack Company and Patriot American Office Group. We acquired such properties for
a total cost of approximately $1.1 billion. In connection with such transaction,
(1) we became associated with respected names in the real estate business,
including William L. Mack and Mitchell E. Hersh; (2) we changed our name from
"Cali Realty Corporation" to "Mack-Cali Realty Corporation" and (3) Mack-Cali
Realty, L.P. changed its name from "Cali Realty, L.P." to "Mack-Cali Realty,
L.P." Also, in January 1997, we acquired 65 properties, aggregating
approximately 4.1 million square feet, from the Robert Martin Company, LLC and
its affiliates. We acquired all 65 properties for a total cost of approximately
$450.0 million.
In 1994, we succeeded to the business of Cali Associates. John J. Cali,
Angelo R. Cali and Edward Leshowitz, the founders of Cali Associates, have been
involved in the development, leasing, management, operation and disposition of
commercial and residential properties in northern and central New Jersey for
over 40 years. Our founders primarily have been focusing on office building
development and acquisitions for the past fifteen years. In addition to our
founders, we and our predecessors generally have employed our current executive
officers for an average of approximately nine years. We and our
3
predecessors have built approximately four million square feet of office space,
more than one million square feet of industrial facilities and over 5,500
residential units.
We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on May 24,
1994. Our executive offices are located at 11 Commerce Drive, Cranford, New
Jersey 07016. Our general information telephone number is (908) 272-8000. Our
internet website address is http://www.mack-cali.com.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We are registering the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus for
the account of the selling shareholders identified in the section of this
prospectus entitled "Selling Shareholders." All of the net proceeds from the
sale of the common stock will go to the shareholders who offer and sell their
shares of such stock. We will not receive any part of the proceeds from the sale
of such shares.
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Our articles of incorporation and bylaws contain certain provisions to
indemnify our directors and officers against liability incurred by them as a
result of their services in those capacities. Insofar as indemnification for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), may be permitted to our directors, officers or controlling
persons pursuant to the above provisions, we have been informed that in the
opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act, and is therefore unenforceable.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS
The selling shareholders are persons listed in the table below who may
receive shares of our common stock in exchange for their units ("Units") of
limited partnership interest in Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. and/or their warrants to
purchase common Units. As of the date of this prospectus, (1) 57 of the selling
shareholders held an aggregate of 4,013,739 common Units that are redeemable for
an equal number of shares of our common stock; (2) one of the selling
shareholders held an aggregate of 27,132 Series A preferred Units that are
convertible into 783,030 common Units and then redeemable for an equal number of
shares of our common stock; (3) 50 of the selling shareholders held an aggregate
of 223,124 Series B preferred Units that are convertible into 6,439,367 common
Units and then redeemable for an equal number of shares of our common stock; and
(4) 47 of the selling shareholders held warrants to purchase an aggregate of
2,000,000 common Units that are redeemable for an equal number of shares of our
common stock. The selling shareholders may redeem their common Units for an
equal number of shares of common stock in accordance with the terms described in
this prospectus.
In connection with our acquisition of the property portfolios of The Mack
Company and Patriot American Office Group on December 11, 1997, we issued
3,972,318 common Units, 27,132 Series A preferred Units, 223,124 Series B
preferred Units and 48 warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,000,000 common
Units to 57 of the selling shareholders. When we acquired the property of
Princeton Overlook Associates, L.P. on December 19, 1997, we issued 41,421
common Units to one selling shareholder.
Holders of common Units may require Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. to redeem all or
part of their common Units for (1) cash (based upon the fair market value of an
equivalent number of shares of common stock at the time of such redemption) or
(2) at our election, shares of common stock (on a one-for-one basis). The
selling shareholders may convert each of the Series A preferred Units at any
time into common Units at a conversion price of $34.65 per Unit, and after the
one year anniversary date of the Series A preferred units' initial issuance, the
selling shareholders may then convert the common Units received pursuant to such
conversion into common stock on a one-for-one basis. The selling shareholders
also may convert each of the Series B preferred Units into common Units at a
conversion price of $34.65 per Unit, and after the one year anniversary date of
the Series B preferred Units' initial issuance, the selling shareholders may
then convert the common Units received pursuant to such conversion into common
stock on a one-for-one basis, subject in certain circumstances to contractual
agreements with us that such conversion into common stock not occur until the
third anniversary date of the Series B preferred Units' initial issuance. The
selling shareholders may exercise the warrants to purchase common Units at any
time after the one year anniversary and prior to the five year anniversary of
their date of issuance at an exercise price of $37.80 per Unit.
We may assume Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.'s obligation to redeem the common Units
in exchange for, at the election of Mack-Cali Realty, L.P., either cash or
shares of common stock. However, we may not pay for such redemption with shares
of common stock if, after giving effect to such redemption, any person would
beneficially or constructively own shares in excess of the ownership limit
described in "Restrictions on Transfer".
The following table sets forth, as of the date of this prospectus, the name
of each selling shareholder, the number of shares of our common stock
beneficially owned by each selling shareholder and underlying each of the
selling shareholder's common Units, Series A preferred Units, Series B preferred
Units and warrants to purchase common Units, and the maximum number of shares of
common stock which the selling shareholders can sell pursuant to this
prospectus. As of such date, we had not issued any shares of our common stock,
including any such shares underlying the selling shareholders' Units or
warrants, to the selling shareholders. Each selling shareholder will receive all
of the net proceeds from the sale of his or her shares of common stock offered
by this prospectus.
5
This offering will not affect the number of common stock equivalents
outstanding or the number of shares or percentage of ownership which persons,
other than the selling shareholders, beneficially own. Because the selling
shareholders may sell all or part of their shares of common stock pursuant to
this prospectus and this offering is not being underwritten on a firm commitment
basis, we cannot estimate the number and percentage of shares of common stock
that the selling stockholders will hold at the end of the offering covered by
this prospectus.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Once the selling shareholders have exchanged their common units for shares
of common stock, the selling shareholders may from time to time offer and sell
their shares of common stock offered by this prospectus. We have registered
their shares for resale to provide them with freely tradable securities.
However, registration does not necessarily mean that they will offer and sell
any of their shares.
OFFER AND SALE OF SHARES
The selling shareholders, or their pledgees, donees, transferees or other
successors in interest, may offer and sell their shares of common stock in the
following manner:
- on the New York Stock Exchange or other exchanges on which the common
stock is traded at the time of sale;
- in the over-the-counter market or otherwise at prices and at terms then
prevailing or at prices related to the then current market price; or
- in privately negotiated transactions.
The selling shareholders, or their pledgees, donees, transferees or other
successors in interest, may sell their shares of common stock in one or more of
the following transactions:
- a block trade in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to
sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the
block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
- a broker or dealer may purchase as principal and resell such shares for
its own account pursuant to this prospectus;
- an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the exchange; and
- ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker
solicits purchasers.
The selling shareholders may accept and, together with any agent of the
selling shareholders, reject in whole or in part any proposed purchase of the
shares of common stock offered by this prospectus.
BROKERS AND DEALERS
SELLING THROUGH BROKERS AND DEALERS. The selling shareholders may select
brokers or dealers to sell their shares of common stock. Brokers or dealers that
the selling shareholders engage may arrange for other brokers or dealers to
participate in selling such shares. The selling shareholders may give such
brokers or dealers commissions or discounts in amounts to be negotiated
immediately before any sale. In connection with such sales, these brokers or
dealers, any other participating brokers or dealers, and certain pledgees,
donees, transferees and other successors in interest, may be deemed to be
"underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. In
addition, any securities covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale
pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act may be sold under such rule rather
than pursuant to this prospectus.
SUPPLEMENTAL PROSPECTUS REGARDING MATERIAL ARRANGEMENTS. If and when a
selling shareholder notifies us that he, she or it has entered into a material
arrangement with a broker or dealer for the sale of his, her or its shares of
common stock offered by this prospectus through a block trade, special offering,
exchange or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, we will
file a supplemental prospectus, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(c) under the
Securities Act. The supplemental prospectus will provide: (1) the name(s) of
each such selling shareholder(s) and of the participating broker-dealer(s); (2)
the number of shares of common stock involved; (3) the price at which such
shares were sold; (4) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed
to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable; (5) that such broker-dealer(s) did
not conduct any investigation to verify
11
the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus; and (6)
other facts material to the transaction.
COMMISSIONS. The selling shareholders will pay any sales commissions or
other seller's compensation applicable to such transactions.
SUPPLEMENTAL PROSPECTUS REGARDING SALES
To the extent required, we will set forth in a prospectus supplement
accompanying this prospectus or, if appropriate, in a post-effective amendment,
the following information: (1) the amount of the shares of common stock to be
sold; (2) purchase prices; (3) public offering prices; (4) the names of any
agents, dealers or underwriters; and (5) any applicable commissions or discounts
with respect to a particular offer. The selling shareholders and agents who
execute orders on their behalf may be deemed to be "underwriters" as that term
is defined in Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. A portion of any proceeds of
sales and discounts, commissions or other seller's compensation may be deemed to
be underwriting compensation for purposes of the Securities Act.
COMPLIANCE WITH STATE SECURITIES LAWS
We have not registered or qualified the shares of common stock offered by
this prospectus under the laws of any country, other than the United States. In
certain states, the selling shareholders may not offer or sell their shares of
common stock unless (1) we have registered or qualified such shares for sale in
such states; or (2) we have complied with an available exemption from
registration or qualification. Also, in certain states, to comply with such
states' securities laws, the selling shareholders can offer and sell their
shares of common stock only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers.
LIMITATIONS IMPOSED BY EXCHANGE ACT RULES AND REGULATIONS
Certain provisions of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the related
rules and regulations will apply to the selling shareholders and any other
person engaged in a distribution of shares of the common stock. Such provisions
may (1) limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of common
stock by the selling shareholders or such other person; (2) affect the
marketability of such stock; and (3) affect the brokers' and dealers'
market-making activities with respect to such stock.
PAYMENT OF INCIDENTAL EXPENSES
We will pay substantially all of the expenses related to the registration of
the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus. We estimate such expenses
to be approximately $151,000.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED
AUTHORIZED CAPITAL STOCK
Pursuant to our articles of incorporation, we have the authority to issue
190,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 5,000,000
shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. At December 1, 1998,
57,123,697 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding, and no shares of
preferred stock were issued and outstanding.
COMMON STOCK
VOTING, DIVIDEND AND OTHER RIGHTS. Each outstanding share of common stock
entitles the holder to one vote on all matters presented to stockholders for a
vote, subject to the provisions of our articles of incorporation regarding the
restrictions on transfer of such stock, discussed in "Restrictions on Transfer"
below. Holders of shares of common stock do not have any cumulative voting
rights. This means that the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of
common stock can elect all of the directors
12
then standing for election and the holders of the remaining shares will not be
able to elect any directors. Holders of shares of common stock do not have
preemptive rights to subscribe for any of our securities. All shares of common
stock will, when issued, be duly authorized, fully paid, and nonassessable. We
may pay distributions to the holders of shares of common stock if and when our
board of directors declares such dividends out of legally available funds.
RIGHTS UPON LIQUIDATION. Under Maryland law, our stockholders generally are
not liable for our debts or obligations. Upon our liquidation, subject to the
right of any holders of preferred stock to receive preferential distributions,
each holder of common stock may participate pro rata in the assets remaining
after payment of, or adequate provision for, all of our known debts and
liabilities. Such debts and liabilities may arise from our status as general
partner of Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.
OWNERSHIP LIMIT. Under our articles of incorporation, with certain
exceptions, no person may own, or be deemed to own by virtue of the attribution
rules of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), more than
9.8 percent of the value of our issued and outstanding shares of capital stock.
See "Restrictions on Transfer" below.
TRANSFER AGENT. ChaseMellon Shareholder Services, LLC is the registrar and
transfer agent for our common stock.
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER
OWNERSHIP LIMIT. For us to qualify as a REIT under the Code, we must meet
the following requirements concerning the ownership of outstanding shares of our
capital stock:
- five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code to include certain
entities) may not collectively own, directly or indirectly, more than 50
percent of the value of our outstanding capital stock during the last half
of a taxable year; and
- at least 100 persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year or during
a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year must beneficially own our
capital stock.
Further, under our articles of incorporation, subject to certain exceptions,
no holder of shares of our capital stock may own, or be deemed to own by virtue
of the attribution rules of the Code, more than 9.8 percent by value of our
outstanding capital stock. Such limit will be referred to in this prospectus as
the "Ownership Limit."
EXEMPTION FROM OWNERSHIP LIMIT. Our board of directors may exempt a person
from the Ownership Limit if the board of directors or our tax counsel is
satisfied that such ownership will not then or in the future jeopardize our
status as a REIT. To obtain such exemption, the intended transferee of shares of
our capital stock must (1) give us written notice of the proposed transfer and
(2) furnish such opinions of counsel, affidavits, undertakings, agreements and
information as the board of directors may require no later than the 15th day
before any transfer which could cause the intended transferee's direct or
beneficial ownership of shares to exceed the Ownership Limit. If the board of
directors decides that it is no longer in our best interests to continue to
qualify as a REIT, then the restrictions on transferability and ownership will
not apply.
NULL AND VOID TRANSFERS. A transfer of shares of capital stock shall be
null and void and the intended transferee of such shares will not acquire any
rights in such shares if the transfer would:
- create a direct or indirect ownership of shares of stock in excess of the
Ownership Limit;
- result in the shares of stock being owned by fewer than 100 persons; or
- result in our being "closely held" within the meaning of Section 856(h) of
the Code.
13
CERTIFICATE LEGEND REFERRING TO RESTRICTIONS. All certificates representing
shares of our common stock will bear a legend referring to the restrictions
described in the above section entitled "Restrictions on Transfer--Null and Void
Transfer."
REQUIRED DISCLOSURES BY STOCKHOLDERS. Every owner of more than five percent
(or such lower percentage as the Code or related regulations require) of our
issued and outstanding shares of capital stock must give us written notice
containing the information specified in our articles of incorporation no later
than January 31 of each year. In addition, every stockholder must, upon our
demand, provide in writing information that we may request to determine the
effect of such stockholder's direct, indirect and constructive ownership of such
shares on our status as a REIT.
EFFECT OF OWNERSHIP LIMITS ON CONTROL OF OUR COMPANY. The ownership
limitations set forth in this prospectus may prevent the acquisition of control
of our company without the consent of the board of directors.
LEGAL MATTERS
Pryor Cashman Sherman & Flynn LLP, New York, New York, will issue an opinion
to us regarding certain legal matters in connection with this offering,
including the validity of the issuance of the shares of common stock offered by
this prospectus.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Our officers and directors are indemnified under Maryland law, the Articles
of Incorporation and the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership
of Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. (the "Partnership Agreement of Mack-Cali Realty,
L.P."), against certain liabilities. The Articles of Incorporation require us to
indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted from time
to time by the laws of the State of Maryland. The bylaws contain provisions
which implement the indemnification provisions of the Articles of Incorporation.
The Maryland General Corporation Law ("MGCL") permits a corporation to
indemnify its directors and officers, among others, against judgments,
penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by them
in connection with any proceeding to which they may be made a party by reason of
their service in those capacities unless it is established that the act or
omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to
the proceeding and was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and
deliberate dishonesty, or the director or officer actually received an improper
personal benefit in money, property or services, or in the case of any criminal
proceeding, the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe that the act
or omission was unlawful, or the director or officer was adjudged to be liable
to the corporation for the act or omission. No amendment of our Articles of
Incorporation shall limit or eliminate the right to indemnification provided
with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.
Maryland law permits us to provide indemnification to an officer to the same
extent as a director, although additional indemnification may be provided if
such officer is not also a director.
The MGCL permits the articles of incorporation of a Maryland corporation to
include a provision limiting the liability of its directors and officers to the
corporation and its stockholders for money damages, with specified exceptions.
The MGCL does not, however, permit the liability of directors and officers to
the corporation or its stockholders to be limited to the extent that (1) it is
proved that the person actually received an improper benefit or profit in money,
property or services (to the extent such benefit or profit was received) or (2)
a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to such person is entered in a
proceeding based on a finding that the person's action, or failure to act, was
the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and was material to the cause of
action adjudicated in the proceeding. Our Articles of Incorporation contain a
provision consistent with the MGCL. No amendment of the Articles of
Incorporation shall limit or eliminate the limitation of liability with respect
to acts or omissions occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.
The Partnership Agreement of Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. also provides for
indemnification of us and our officers and directors to the same extent
indemnification is provided to our officers and directors in
II-1
ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. (CONTINUED)
our Articles of Incorporation, and limits the liability of us and our officers
and directors to Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. and its partners to the same extent
liability of our officers and directors to our stockholders is limited under our
Articles of Incorporation.
In addition, the Delaware Revised Limited Partnership Act provides that a
limited partner has the power to indemnify and hold harmless any partner or
other person from and against any and all claims and demands whatsoever, subject
to such standards and restrictions, if any, as are set forth in its partnership
agreement.
We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors
and officers. The indemnification agreements require, among other things, that
we indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law,
and advance to the directors and officers all related expenses, subject to
reimbursement if it is subsequently determined that indemnification is not
permitted. We also must indemnify and advance all expenses incurred by directors
and officers seeking to enforce their rights under the indemnification
agreements, and cover directors and officers under our directors' and officers'
liability insurance. Although the form of indemnification agreement offers
substantially the same scope of coverage afforded by provisions of the Articles
of Incorporation and the bylaws and the Partnership Agreement of Mack-Cali
Realty, L.P., it provides greater assurance to directors and officers that
indemnification will be available, because, as a contract, it cannot be modified
unilaterally in the future by the Board of Directors or by the stockholders to
eliminate the rights it provides.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
We, the undersigned Registrant, hereby undertake:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement to include any
material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
disclosed in this registration statement or any material change to such
information in this registration statement.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS. (CONTINUED)
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of
the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
We hereby further undertake that, for the purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of our annual reports
pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
We hereby further undertake that:
(1) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of
this registration statement in reliance under Rule 430A and contained in a
form of prospectus filed by us pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or 497(h) under
the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of this registration
statement at the time it was declared effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by
one of our directors, officers or controlling persons in the successful defense
of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will,
unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.

SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, we

requirements for filing on Form S-3 and have duly caused this registration
statement to be signed on our behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly
authorized, in the City of New York, State of New York on this 16th day of
