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:
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.
