JERSEY CITY, N.J., May 5, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) yesterday celebrated the grand opening of the Lutze Biergarten, Jersey City's first outdoor biergarten along the Hudson River Waterfront. The new biergarten is adjacent to Harborside, the Company's premier, mixed-use asset in Jersey City. Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop joined Mack-Cali Chief Executive Officer Michael J.

"Just in time for the spring and summer season, the Lutze will provide guests with a one-of-a-kind experience featuring spectacular views of New York City's iconic skyline."
Mayor Fulop said that Mack-Cali's latest investment in Jersey City will support the growth and development of the City, combined with the city's new Exchange Place Alliance Special Improvement District, which aims to improve the Jersey City Waterfront while promoting economic revitalization and social growth across the Exchange Place district.
"Thanks to their commitment and faith in our community, the Lutze expects to provide nearly 100 job opportunities to the local community and will be donating a substantial portion of their profits to local charities and political causes that benefit thousands of residents across our city," said Mayor Steven M. Fulop.
The Lutze, a 23,000-square-foot outdoor biergarten featuring three unique seating areas, offers guests a variety of craft beers, cider, wine, and sangria, as well as delicious food from Jake's Downtown and Bacon Me Crazy. Throughout the biergarten, customers have access to a variety of seating and lounge areas with several fire pits, games, and an event stage, situated in the heart of the biergarten, will welcome local live entertainment. The family- and pet-friendly Lutze is open daily, from May through October.
Owned by Mack-Cali, the Lutze is part of the Company's initiative to activate the Jersey City Waterfront and further create a destination where residents, tenants, and visitors can have a true live-work-play experience.
The ribbon cutting ceremony was part of the biergarten's Grand Opening Celebration, which featured over 70 vendors, along with a variety of food trucks, drinks and games, children's face painting, and a stunning fireworks display.

Mack-Cali Announces First Quarter Leasing Results (5/04/17)
First Quarter Ends with Core, Waterfront, and Flex Properties Over 90 Percent Leased
11.4 Percent GAAP Rollup for the First Quarter Transactions
JERSEY CITY, N.J., May 4, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) today announced that during the first quarter of 2017, it completed a total of 54 lease transactions aggregating 362,075 square feet in its consolidated commercial portfolio. Of these totals, 15 percent were for new leases and 85 percent were for renewals and other tenant transactions. With these transactions, the Company finished the quarter with a percentage leased of 90.4 in its Core, Waterfront, and Flex properties, compared to 90.6 percent at year-end 2016.
For the balance of 2017, expirations in the Company's Core, Waterfront, and Flex portfolio total 1.4 million square feet or 7.6 percent of the portfolio. These expirations are heavily weighted towards the end of the year. On the Hudson River Waterfront, where the Company feels the market is the healthiest, the Company expects a substantial rollup in rent at today's market levels versus expiring rent.
Rents on the first quarter transactions rolled up 11.4 percent on a GAAP basis in Mack-Cali's Core, Waterfront, and Flex portfolio and 1.2 percent on a cash basis.
In April, the Company signed a lease with 24 Hour Fitness for a state of the art fitness facility to be built in the Mack-Cali Business Campus in Parsippany, New Jersey. The project further enhances the amenities in the campus and will be located adjacent to the Wegman's shopping center scheduled to open this July. The 24 Hour Fitness lease is subject to standard contingencies and is expected to open in approximately 24 months.
"The first quarter was a workmanlike quarter where we continued to execute on our plan of leasing our key markets and locations. The market remained steady from a demand perspective with ongoing showings and interest throughout the portfolio, with growing interest in our waterfront properties. Specifically, tours have picked up significantly and a number of tenants are applying for the incentive packages offered by the state of New Jersey prior to choosing a location," said Michael J. DeMarco, chief executive officer.

Roseland Residential Trust, Mack-Cali's Multi-Family Subsidiary, Announces First Quarter Activity (5/03/17)
JERSEY CITY, N.J., May 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) today announced that Roseland Residential Trust ("Roseland" or "RRT"), Mack-Cali's multi-family subsidiary, culminated a quarter of significant achievements.
Recent Roseland highlights include:
•Roseland's stabilized portfolio at quarter-end was 97.5 percent leased as compared to 96.1 percent leased at year end 2016.
•Roseland closed on a $300 million equity transaction with the Rockpoint Group; $150 million was drawn at closing and outstanding at quarter-end.
•Roseland acquired its partners' interest in Plaza 8 & 9, thereby converting this premier waterfront development site from 50 percent to 100 percent ownership. This site could contain up to 2,000 units and is directly adjacent to Urby.
•Subsequent to quarter-end, Roseland acquired Monaco, a 523-unit luxury community along the Jersey City waterfront, thereby converting its 15 percent subordinate interest to 100 percent ownership.
•Roseland made progress on leasing its recent marketplace deliveries representing 1,162 units in three communities. As of April 30, Quarry Place at Tuckahoe was 41 percent leased and Chase II was 55 percent leased. Additionally, Roseland commenced leasing activities on the iconic, 69-story Jersey City Urby. Since its opening on March 1, Jersey City Urby has leased 286 apartments, representing 38% of the 762-unit tower while reducing concessions and raising rents.
Regarding the health of the Hudson River Waterfront/ Jersey City residential market:
"Over the past year, we have put into service M2 at 311 units in May of 2016 and Urby at 762 units in March of 2017," said Michael J. DeMarco, chief executive officer. "In that one year time frame we have significantly reduced concessions during lease up and increased rent at M2 five times. We absorbed that project at 50 units per month stabilizing in just six months. Now, Urby is averaging close to 140 units per month and achieved 38 percent leased on 286 units in just two months. We have raised rents three times so far at Urby and are averaging over $55 per square foot. This leasing activity is balanced out by our operating portfolio at Marbella and Monaco's combined 935 units achieving an average leasing percentage over the last year of 96.8 percent amidst the adjacent M2 and Urby lease-ups. We strongly believe that the Hudson River Waterfront/ Jersey City will continue to absorb the remaining inventory and deliveries for 2017."

We have an excellent product offering validated by our customers voting with their dollars. We are excited by the prospects of improving on these metrics as our repositioning cap-ex programs move from the planning stage to completion in the next 12 months."
RECENT TRANSACTIONS
For the fourth quarter 2016 and through year-to-date 2017, office dispositions totaled $280 million. The Company completed the strategic exit out of the DC Metro area with the seven-building portfolio sale in Greenbelt, Maryland, as well as the exit out of multiple Central New Jersey office sub-markets including Freehold, Roseland, and Cranford. Additionally, included in the $280 million, the Company sold subordinated/minority interests in numerous office assets held with Keystone Property Group throughout the Tri-State area.
For full year 2016 and through year-to-date 2017, the Company disposed of 36 non-strategic and underperforming commercial office assets totaling approximately five million square feet, and a 220-unit multi-family community, realizing gross proceeds of approximately $745 million, exceeding the Company's guidance, with a weighted average cap rate of approximately 5.5 percent. In the same time period, Mack-Cali redeployed more than $500 million in capital to acquire properties that fit the Company's strategic plan for growth.
The Company continues to build on the 2016 momentum of dispositions and is trimming the next layer of assets that the Company now deems to be non-core. It is currently exploring the potential of up to $450 million of additional property sales which it anticipates could close by mid to late 2017. These dispositions include exiting out of the Moorestown flex portfolio in Southern New Jersey comprised of 26 buildings totaling approximately 1.3 million square feet and nine buildings in Northern New Jersey's Bergen County submarket totaling 2.2 million square feet.
Through year-to-date February 2017, the Company acquired a three-building office portfolio comprised of 280,000 square feet in Red Bank, New Jersey for approximately $27 million. The portfolio is adjacent to the Company's existing office holdings of 477,000 square feet now totaling over one million square feet in the Monmouth County, New Jersey market. The Company also entered into an agreement to purchase a prominent portfolio including three buildings totaling 575,000 square feet in Short Hills, New Jersey and three buildings totaling 525,000 square feet in Madison, New Jersey. With the expected completion of the acquisition, Mack-Cali will own virtually 100 percent of the class A office market in Short Hills, where the rents are the highest in the state.
Regarding the multi-family side of the business, the Company continues to streamline and build on its platform along the Waterfront, starting with the purchase of the remaining 50 percent joint venture interest a development site on the Jersey City Waterfront known as Plaza 8/9 for $57.1 million funded with a combination of $14.2 million cash and the issuance of Preferred Operating Units. With the ability to accommodate up to 1.2 million square feet of residential or office, this is the most valuable and prestigious development site in Jersey City. Additionally, an agreement has been reached to purchase its partners' 85 percent joint venture interest in Monaco, a 523-unit multi-family, high-rise community in Jersey City. This purchase will be completed with the assumption of existing debt, cash, and the issuance of Preferred Operating Units.
As Mack-Cali announced in detail yesterday, Roseland Residential Trust ("Roseland"), its multifamily subsidiary, entered into an investment agreement (the "Investment Agreement") with affiliates of Rockpoint Group, L.L.C. ("Rockpoint"). The Investment Agreement provides for multiple equity investments by Rockpoint in the Roseland subsidiary entity up to an aggregate of $300 million of units of limited partnership interests in Roseland (the "Units"). The initial closing under the Investment Agreement is expected to occur by mid-March 2017 for $150 million of Units. Additional closings of Units to be issued to Rockpoint per the Investment Agreement may occur in increments of not less than $10 million, with the balance of the full $300 million committed by March 1, 2019.
Mack-Cali will have a participation right, where prior to March 1, 2022 and following either the full investment of $300 million by Rockpoint or in certain other limited circumstances, Mack-Cali may purchase up to $200 million of Units on substantially the same terms as the Rockpoint's Units. Mack-Cali will control governance of the entity, but for limited events where Rockpoint consent is required, and will receive contributed equity value at closing of $1.23 billion. Upon full Rockpoint and Mack-Cali fundings completed, pro forma ownership of the entity will be approximately 83 percent for Mack-Cali and 17 percent for Rockpoint.

INFORMATION ABOUT FFO
Funds from operations ("FFO") is defined as net income (loss) before noncontrolling interests of unitholders, computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), excluding gains or losses from depreciable rental property transactions, and impairments related to depreciable rental property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. The Company believes that FFO per share is helpful to investors as one of several measures of the performance of an equity REIT. The Company further believes that as FFO per share excludes the effect of depreciation, gains (or losses) from sales of properties and impairments related to depreciable rental property (all of which are based on historical costs which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance), FFO per share can facilitate comparison of operating performance between equity REITs.
FFO per share should not be considered as an alternative to net income available to common shareholders per share as an indication of the Company's performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO per share presented herein is not necessarily comparable to FFO per share presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definition. However, the Company's FFO per share is comparable to the FFO per share of real estate companies that use the current definition of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). A reconciliation of net income per share to FFO per share is included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.
Core FFO is defined as FFO, as adjusted for certain items to facilitate comparative measurement of the Company's performance over time. Core FFO is presented solely as supplemental disclosure that the Company's management believes provides useful information to investors and analysts of its results, after adjusting for certain items to facilitate comparability of its performance from period to period. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not intended to represent cash flow and is not indicative of cash flows provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. As there is not a generally accepted definition established for Core FFO, the Company's measures of Core FFO may not be comparable to the Core FFO reported by other REITs. A reconciliation of net income per share to Core FFO in dollars and per share is included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.

JERSEY CITY, N.J., Feb. 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) today announced that Roseland Residential Trust ("Roseland" or "RRT"), Mack-Cali's multi-family subsidiary, culminated a year of major achievements, including the signing today of a $300 million equity raise with affiliates of Rockpoint Group, L.L.C. ("Rockpoint"), opening of Jersey City Urby, and strategic acquisition activities.
Roseland's stabilized residential portfolio was 96.3 percent leased at year-end 2016. Inclusive of the opening tomorrow of the 762-apartment, 69-story Jersey City Urby, Roseland has delivered 1,163 luxury apartments to the marketplace since the beginning of the fourth quarter 2016.
Select leasing highlights for the year include:

•Plaza 8/9, Jersey City, New Jersey: Roseland acquired all joint venture partner interests on the parking lot parcel along the Hudson Waterfront, thereby converting its ownership on the valuable development site from 50 to 100 percent.

•Monaco, Jersey City, New Jersey: Roseland reached an agreement to acquire all joint venture partner interests in the 523-apartment, two-tower, stabilized community completed in 2011. The transaction will convert Roseland's non-cash flowing 15 percent subordinate interest to 100 percent.

Mack-Cali Makes Substantial Progress In Transforming Its Portfolio (2/14/17)
JERSEY CITY, N.J., Feb. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) today announced its 2016 and year-to-date 2017 capital markets results. The Company disposed of 36 non-strategic and underperforming commercial office assets totaling approximately five million square feet, and a 220-unit multi-family community, realizing gross proceeds of approximately $745 million, exceeding our guidance, with a weighted average cap rate of approximately 5.5 percent. In the same time period, Mack-Cali redeployed more than $500 million in capital to acquire properties that fit the Company's strategic plan for growth.
For the fourth quarter 2016 and year-to-date 2017 office dispositions totaled $280 million. The Company completed the strategic exit out of the DC Metro area with the seven-building portfolio sale in Greenbelt, Maryland, as well as the exit out of multiple Central New Jersey office sub-markets including Freehold, Roseland, and Cranford. Additionally, included in the $280 million, the Company sold subordinated/ minority interests in numerous office assets held with Keystone Property Group throughout the Tri-State area.
The Company continues to build on the 2016 momentum of dispositions and is trimming the next layer of assets that the Company now deems to be non-core. It is currently exploring the potential of up to $450 million of additional property sales which it anticipates could close by mid to late 2017. These dispositions include exiting out of the Moorestown flex portfolio in Southern New Jersey comprised of 26 buildings totaling approximately 1.3 million square feet and nine buildings in Northern New Jersey's Bergen County submarket totaling 2.2 million square feet.
The Company's acquisitions to date have been primarily focused on transit-based locations including Metropark and the waterfront markets encompassing Jersey City, Hoboken, and Weehawken/West New York. The yield on these acquisitions will be accretive to earnings net of dispositions with the ability to further increase earnings with the roll up of rents and lease-up of vacant space in our value-add acquisitions.
In the first quarter of 2017, the Company closed on the acquisition of a three-building portfolio comprised of 280,000 square feet in Red Bank, New Jersey for approximately $27 million. The portfolio is adjacent to the Company's existing holdings of 477,000 square feet now totaling over one million square feet in the Monmouth County market. The Company also entered into an agreement to purchase a prominent portfolio including three buildings totaling 575,000 square feet in the high-demand, affluent market of Short Hills, New Jersey and three buildings totaling 525,000 square feet in the prestigious Giralda Farms campus in Madison, New Jersey. With the expected completion of this acquisition, Mack-Cali will own virtually 100 percent of the class A office market in Short Hills, where the rents are the highest in the state. The Giralda Farms properties present a value-add opportunity to reposition high-quality assets to meet the demands of today's significant corporate users. The Morris County office market has been the number one choice for corporate users establishing new state-of-the-art headquarters facilities and the Campus has attracted large, multi-national pharmaceutical and other Fortune 500 companies.
"As a result of refining our office portfolio, consistent with our earnings and debt range, we continue to increase our profit margins by creating operating efficiencies with reduced expenses, higher rents, and increased occupancy," said Michael J. DeMarco, Mack-Cali President. "This positions us to better focus on our high-growth markets and reposition these assets by introducing robust amenity programs that will drive demand and produce higher rents. We believe we are well on our way to owning a totally class A portfolio."
Regarding the multi-family side of the business, the Company continues to streamline and build on its platform along the Waterfront, starting with the purchase of the remaining 50 percent joint venture interest a development site on the Jersey City Waterfront known as Plaza 8/9 for $57.1 million funded with a combination of $14.2 million cash and the issuance of Preferred Operating Units. With the ability to accommodate up to 1.2 million square feet of residential or office, this is the most valuable and prestigious development site in Jersey City. Additionally, an agreement has been reached to purchase its partners' 85 percent joint venture interest in Monaco, a 523-unit multi-family, high-rise community in Jersey City. This purchase will be completed with the assumption of existing debt, cash, and the issuance of Preferred Operating Units. Furthermore, the Company is finalizing terms to sell its minority interest in the Estuary located in Weehawken, New Jersey.
"The net result of these activities increases our development potential and stable cash flow from our multi-family platform," said Michael J. DeMarco, "We also continue to simplify our NAV and balance sheet by reducing our minority and subordinated joint venture interests which have decreased from eleven positions to two."

Mack-Cali Announces Third Quarter Leasing Results (10/24/16)
Company Leases Over 664,000 Square Feet During the Third Quarter; Announces Plan to Build Harborside 4 on the Hudson River Waterfront
JERSEY CITY, N.J., Oct. 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) today announced that it executed 62 leases totaling 664,490 square feet for its office and flex commercial real estate properties during the quarter ending September 30, 2016. Of the square feet leased, 289,991 square feet (44 percent) were for new leases and 374,499 square feet (56 percent) were for lease renewals and other tenant transactions. At quarter end, Mack-Cali's Core, Flex, and Waterfront properties, totaling 19.8 million square feet, achieved 90.3 percent leased. The overall percentage leased when Non-Core assets are included is 87.7 percent, up 100 basis points from last quarter's 86.7 percent. The third quarter leases had a direct impact on the Company's 2017 expirations, reducing the total by almost 100,000 square feet to 2.9 million square feet.
"We are pleased with the significant leasing momentum we're seeing across our portfolio, particularly along the Hudson River Waterfront where occupancy achieved 95 percent," said Mitchell E. Rudin, Mack-Cali Chief Executive Officer. "This quarter we produced GAAP roll up of 9.1 percent and cash roll up of 2.3 percent. We continue to be focused on core markets and key properties with an eye toward transforming these assets with first-class amenity packages. Over the first nine months of this year, we have executed 218 leases totaling 2.5 million square feet. These results include 830,000 square feet of new leases, and over 1.6 million square feet of renewal and other tenant transactions. Of the 160 transactions for renewals and space vacant less than a year, 139 produced GAAP rent roll ups, while four were net neutral and 17 were roll downs. Year to date our rents have rolled up 10.5 percent on a cash basis and 19.3 percent on a GAAP basis."
"As some may have noticed today we ran an ad in the Wall Street Journal thanking our colleagues in the leasing business for helping us achieve 95 percent occupancy across our Waterfront portfolio," said Michael DeMarco, Mack-Cali President. "We also ran an ad announcing our previously discussed joint venture with SJP Properties to design, lease, and build Harborside 4, a 1.2 million-square-foot office tower. We chose SJP, who will be an equity partner in the proposed venture, because Steve Pozycki, the founder, is a master builder with an unmatched record of building iconic structures on time and on budget. The project only gets built if we achieve substantial preleasing at our desired rates. We believe tenant demand is there today as is our ability to finance and add an additional equity partner, if necessary. The Harborside 4 site is an existing parking lot that we own free and clear of debt for over 20 years."
Large block transactions of over 20,000 square feet during the quarter total 400,000 square feet and include the following deals:

Mack-Cali Updates Capital Markets Activity (10/20/16)
JERSEY CITY, N.J., Oct. 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) today announced an update on its dispositions as part of its previously announced strategic plan. The Company has sold approximately $465 million of assets year to date. Currently, Mack-Cali has contracts out for an additional $265 million of dispositions, on which it expects to close in the fourth quarter. The Company anticipates 2016 dispositions to total approximately $730 million which will be comprised of 27 office buildings totaling 4.5 million square feet and one residential building with a GAAP NOI yield of approximately 5.5 percent overall. At this time, the Company is also providing details on recent financing activity.
The proceeds from these dispositions are expected to be used to pay down debt, fund development, and purchase suitable acquisitions if available.
During the third quarter, the Company acquired 111 River Street in Hoboken, New Jersey for $235 million. This premier asset is 566,215 square feet and sits directly on the Hudson River Waterfront, offering breathtaking views and superior transportation options. Additionally, the Company is under contract to acquire a $27 million portfolio adjacent to an existing office campus.
"As we look to refine our plan for 2017, we anticipate disposition activity in the $500 to $600 million range depending on market conditions," said Michael J. DeMarco, Mack-Cali President. "We continue to be focused on strengthening our balance sheet and possibly increasing our holdings in waterfront and transit-based locations that will return significant value to shareholders."
In September 2015, the Company outlined a new strategic plan that coincided with the naming of a new leadership team. The plan, dubbed 20 / 15, called for a focus on Hudson River Waterfront properties in Jersey City, Weehawken, Hoboken, and West New York. This focus includes both office properties and multi-family communities.
The new strategic plan also provided that the Company would seek to lengthen its debt maturity profile and reduce its average cost of debt. In furtherance of the plan, the Company completed the following financing activity in the quarter:
•Closed on a $250 million mortgage loan secured by 101 Hudson Street, its 1.2 million-square-foot class A office building located on the Hudson River Waterfront in Jersey City, New Jersey. The loan has a 10-year term, interest only and has an effective annual interest rate of 3.12 percent.
•Closed on a $59 million mortgage loan secured by Portside 7, its 175-unit, luxury multi-family community located on the Boston Harbor Waterfront. The loan has a seven-year term, interest only and has an effective annual interest rate of 3.569 percent.
•The Company's joint venture with Hyatt Corporation completed a $100 million mortgage loan refinancing, secured by the venture's 350-room Hyatt Regency on the Hudson in Jersey City, New Jersey. The loan has a 10-year term, interest only and has an effective annual interest rate of 3.668 percent. At the closing, the Company received a distribution from the venture of approximately $18 million representing its share of the excess proceeds of the refinancing.
Proceeds from the completed financing activity were used primarily to repay outstanding secured and unsecured debt.
In September, the Company redeemed $114.9 million of its 7.75 percent unsecured bonds scheduled to mature in 2019 paying 115.977 percent of the principal, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
As a result of the successful execution of these highlighted financing activities, at quarter end, the Company's $2.5 billion of total debt had a weighted average interest rate of 4.48 percent, down from 4.79 percent at June 30. Additionally, at quarter-end, the weighted average maturity of its indebtedness was 3.93 years, up from 3.38 years at June 30.
"The steps we've taken this quarter and throughout 2016 clearly demonstrate the lending community's continued confidence in Mack-Cali, and have meaningfully reduced our interest cost and lengthened our debt maturity profile, as we have planned." said Tony Krug, Chief Financial Officer of Mack-Cali. Mr. Krug continued "We plan to continue our strategic balance sheet plan going into 2017, including extending our unsecured credit facility which is scheduled to mature in July 2017, obtaining additional secured and unsecured financings on favorable terms and utilizing proceeds from planned property sales to reduce our debt levels."

Roseland, Mack-Cali's Multi-Family Subsidiary, Announces Key Investment Activity During Third Quarter (10/20/16)
JERSEY CITY, N.J., Oct. 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) today announced that Roseland Residential Trust ("Roseland"), in the third quarter of 2016, exited a non-core market, broke ground on several key luxury rental communities, and completed financing on several other projects. More recently the Company closed on two impactful transactions at RiverTrace at Port Imperial in West New York, New Jersey.
ACQUISTIONS AND FINANCING:
After acquiring its partners' interests in Portside 7 in East Boston, Roseland closed in the third quarter on long-term financing of approximately $59 million at a rate of 3.44 percent. Also in the third quarter, the Company closed on construction financing for the adjacent Portside 5/6 in East Boston for $73 million.
Subsequent to quarter-end, Roseland closed on two transactions on RiverTrace, the 316-apartment home community located at Port Imperial in West New York. The transactions include: (i) the refinancing of the outstanding permanent loan with a rate of six percent to a 10-year, interest only loan at 3.21 percent; and (ii) the conversion of its subordinate 50 percent ownership interest to a heads up 22.8 percent ownership, with no remaining preferred capital. The Company projects these transactions will generate over $1 million of cash flow in year one of its converted ownership.
CONSTRUCTION STARTS:
The Company commenced construction on the following projects:
•Conshohocken, Pennsylvania (51 Washington): Broke ground on a wholly owned, 310-apartment home, luxury community.
•Morristown, New Jersey (Lofts at 40 Park): Broke ground on a 59-apartment home, joint venture community adjacent to Roseland's Metropolitan at 40 Park.
•Worcester, Massachusetts (145 Front Street at City Square): Broke ground on the second phase of City Square, a 128-apartment home, luxury community in downtown Worcester.
LEASING HIGHLIGHT:
Roseland is pleased with initial leasing activity at its newest property, M2 at Marbella in Jersey City. The Company began leasing in May 2016 and at quarter end was 76 percent leased.
DISPOSITION ACTIVITY:
During the third quarter, Roseland sold its 100 percent interest in the non-strategic, 220-apartment home Andover Place in Andover, Massachusetts for approximately $40.4 million.
"Roseland continues to move the needle forward with respect to our ownership structure in our multi-family assets. RiverTrace is a perfect example where we've been able to achieve greater ownership and cash flow participation in a premier waterfront asset," said Andrew Marshall, President and Chief Operating Officer of Roseland.
"We are seeing continued growth and vitality in the market, and Roseland is responding to meet that demand," said Michael J. DeMarco, President of Mack-Cali.

Mack-Cali Announces Goals And Accomplishments As Part Of Strategic Plan Update (9/12/16)
JERSEY CITY, N.J., Sept. 12, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) announced today that it has published an investor presentation highlighting the substantial progress made toward achieving the objectives laid out last year in its "20 / 15" strategic plan. The Company's executive leadership also will detail today their successes and future plans at the Company's previously announced meeting and webcast for investors and analysts scheduled for 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time today. The presentation illustrates how Mack-Cali is continuing to redefine itself through an aggressive plan to focus on Waterfront and transit-based office holdings in the Northeast, grow its luxury multi-family portfolio, focus only on key markets while exiting others, and undertake dramatic capital improvements to key assets, including to its signature Harborside complex on the Jersey City Waterfront.
"Our leadership team will continue to set ambitious yet achievable goals with a laser-like focus on driving our operating performance," said Michael J. DeMarco, President of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation. "We are pleased with the success we've achieved over the course of our first year – and look forward as we continue on the path to returning a premium relative to NAV and providing significant value to our shareholders."
During this year's meeting with investors, the Company will outline plans to strengthen its balance sheet, launch a strategic capital improvement plan, and create long-term cash flow. The Company expects to further reduce expenses in office operations and reduce credit costs through refinancing opportunities in 2016 and 2017. Leadership is targeting an increased leased percentage of the office portfolio to 90 percent by year-end 2016, and to 93 percent in 2017.
Roseland Residential Trust, the Company's wholly-owned multi-family subsidiary, was created last year to increase transparency. Roseland is currently operating 5,434 multi-family units with a leased percentage of 97 percent. There are an additional 2,560 units under construction with a pipeline of 11,600 units to be developed. Roseland continues to build out and monetize its geographically desirable land portfolio while assessing strategic repurposings of Mack-Cali office holdings. Roseland's ownership percentage of operating and in-construction projects has increased to 61 percent currently from 38 percent in 2012. It also projects further reductions in the number of projects in which it owns subordinated interests to three by year-end 2016, compared to nine at year-end 2014.
"The Roseland platform is well-positioned for material NAV and cash flow growth," said Marshall Tycher, Chairman of Roseland Residential Trust. "Our synergy with Mack-Cali is presenting exciting opportunities through the repositioning of under-utilized office assets where we plan significant future growth/development."
The work to reshape the existing office portfolio through capital improvements is continuing. Over the next 12 to 18 months Mack-Cali plans to upgrade existing amenities and enhance offerings with six major capital investment programs. The most prominent among these projects is the approximate $50 to $75 million transformation and reimagination of Harborside. The new design is inspired by the complex's industrial past. The transformed Harborside will feature high-end dining and shopping experiences in an open layout with easy access to the Waterfront Esplanade and spectacular views of the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline.
"Our evolving office portfolio is continuing to attract substantial tenant interest – especially in our core Hudson Waterfront holdings where our office and multi-family holdings continue to propel growth," said Mitchell E. Rudin, Chief Executive Officer of Mack-Cali. "We are committed to implementing operating initiatives that deliver real results and strengthen our balance sheet."
The materials presented today are included in a Form 8-K furnished by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission today are available on the Company's website at https://www.mack-cali.com/investors/company-filings-reports/.

Roseland Holds Ceremonial Ground Breaking For Signature Place At Morris Plains (8/04/16)
197-Unit Luxury Residential Community Will Represent First Strategic Repositioning of Mack-Cali Office Asset to Multi-Family Community
EDISON, N.J., Aug. 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Roseland Residential Trust, a wholly owned subsidiary of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI), today held a ceremonial ground breaking for its newest luxury residential community, Signature Place at Morris Plains, in Morris Plains, New Jersey. The new multi-family community will feature 197 luxury apartment homes and is scheduled to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2017. This site was previously a vacant Mack-Cali office building that is being repurposed into a multi-family residential community.
The repositioning of select Mack-Cali office buildings into multi-family communities was a key part of the company's strategic plan announced last year. The repurposing of certain assets will create significant value and is designed to ensure the highest and best use of those selected properties. Mack-Cali and Roseland are in the process of repositioning several of its underperforming, obsolete assets and continue to evaluate the portfolio for additional repositioning opportunities.
"Today marks a significant milestone for the Mack-Cali and Roseland team as we move forward with another of the cornerstone initiatives we laid out in our strategic plan," said Michael J. DeMarco, President and Chief Operating Officer of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation. "In order to provide the highest rate of return for our investors, we know that we must optimize the value of each and every property in our portfolio. Creating Signature Place at Morris Plains will accomplish exactly that for this site."
"This is an incredibly attractive location for a luxury residential community – with excellent transit options and a vibrant surrounding area," said Andrew Marshall, President and Chief Operating Officer of Roseland Residential Trust. "Bringing 197 apartment homes to Morris Plains is a win-win for both our company and the borough, and we look forward to our continued partnership."
This new community is located at 250 Johnson Road in a park-like setting with lake views. Signature Place at Morris Plains is ideally situated in the heart of Morris County, in close proximity to numerous recreational, dining, and shopping destinations along Route 10. It also features a number of convenient options for commuters including indoor/outdoor parking, NJ TRANSIT's Morris Plains train station with hourly service to New York Penn Station, and access to Interstates 287 and 80.
Each of the 197 luxury apartment homes will feature a high-end living experience designed to attract a wide range of residents from young professionals to empty-nesters looking to downsize from their current residence. The property includes one- and two-bedroom units, all with state-of-the-art appliances and finishes. Signature Place will also provide residents with access to a wide range of amenities, including a state-of-the-art fitness center, dog run with dog-washing station, resort-style, outdoor swimming pool with sun deck, barbecue grills, tennis court, golf simulator, resident clubroom with billiards, and conference room.
"Roseland and Mack-Cali are excellent partners and this exciting development will bring tremendous benefits to our already wonderful borough," said Morris Plains Mayor Frank J. Druetzler. "We look forward to coming back here for a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of what I know will be a first-class residential community."

Mitchell E. Rudin, chief executive officer, commented "Our leasing pace is encouraging. During the quarter, we addressed over 275,000 square feet of our 2017 expirations and anticipate additional progress. As we embark on repositioning Harborside, we continue to attract technology, media and financial services users to this premier waterfront, mixed-use complex, as evidenced by our recent announcement of new leases with Omnicom and Zurich Insurance. These recent leases, along with our previously announced acquisition of 111 River Street in Hoboken, bring our current waterfront presence of 4.9 million square feet to 94.7 percent leased – strongly outperforming the Hudson Waterfront submarket."
RECENT TRANSACTIONS
In July, the Company announced a series of transactions in the redeployment of disposition proceeds as part of its announced strategic plan. The Company has sold approximately $400 million of assets year to date. Currently, Mack-Cali has contracts out for an additional $250 million of dispositions, $200 million of which it expects to close in the third quarter or early fourth quarter, with the remainder in early 2017. In addition, the Company is currently marketing for sale $200 million in assets for total potential sale proceeds of $850 million. The proceeds from these dispositions is expected to be used to pay down debt, fund development, and purchase suitable acquisitions.
The Company has purchased two class A office assets for approximately $317 million in Hoboken, and Metropark, NJ, totaling approximately 830,000 square feet. Earlier this year, Mack-Cali also acquired three smaller assets for approximately $34 million.
The Company's acquisitions and dispositions are part of Mack-Cali's broad-based portfolio realignment announced as part of their strategic plan last September on balance sheet management while focusing on increasing holdings in waterfront and transit-based locations. To achieve this realignment, the Company has set a goal of $750 million in dispositions to help raise capital for reduction in debt, development funding, and key acquisitions.
Also in July, the Company announced that Roseland Residential Trust ("Roseland"), in the second quarter, completed the acquisition of various partners' interests in Port Imperial on the Hudson River Waterfront and in East Boston, as well as disposition of its subordinated ownership in two Port Imperial communities. In addition, Roseland entered into an agreement to sell Andover Place in Andover, Massachusetts.
BALANCE SHEET/CAPITAL MARKETS
In January 2016, the Company obtained a new $350 million unsecured term loan, which matures in January 2019 with two one-year extension options. The interest rate for the new term loan is currently 140 basis points over LIBOR, subject to adjustment on a sliding scale based on the Company's unsecured debt ratings, or at the Company's option, a defined leverage ratio. Mack-Cali entered into interest rate swap arrangements to fix LIBOR for the duration of the term loan. Including costs, the loan provides for a current all-in fixed rate of 3.13 percent. There is no premium or penalty associated with full or partial prepayment of the term loan.
Proceeds from the unsecured term loan were used primarily to repay outstanding borrowings on its $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility, and to repay the Company's $200 million, 5.8 percent senior unsecured notes that matured on January 15, 2016.
As of June 30, 2016, the Company had total indebtedness of approximately $2.3 billion, with a weighted average annual interest rate of approximately 4.79 percent and a debt-to-undepreciated assets ratio of 40.3 percent. The Company had an interest coverage ratio of 3.4 times for the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

INFORMATION ABOUT FFO
Funds from operations ("FFO") is defined as net income (loss) before noncontrolling interests of unitholders, computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), excluding gains or losses from depreciable rental property transactions, and impairments related to depreciable rental property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. The Company believes that FFO per share is helpful to investors as one of several measures of the performance of an equity REIT. The Company further believes that as FFO per share excludes the effect of depreciation, gains (or losses) from sales of properties and impairments related to depreciable rental property (all of which are based on historical costs which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance), FFO per share can facilitate comparison of operating performance between equity REITs.
FFO per share should not be considered as an alternative to net income available to common shareholders per share as an indication of the Company's performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO per share presented herein is not necessarily comparable to FFO per share presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definition. However, the Company's FFO per share is comparable to the FFO per share of real estate companies that use the current definition of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). A reconciliation of net income per share to FFO per share is included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.
Core FFO is defined as FFO, as adjusted for certain items to facilitate comparative measurement of the Company's performance over time. Core FFO is presented solely as supplemental disclosure that the Company's management believes provides useful information to investors and analysts of its results, after adjusting for certain items to facilitate comparability of its performance from period to period. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not intended to represent cash flow and is not indicative of cash flows provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. As there is not a generally accepted definition established for Core FFO, the Company's measures of Core FFO may not be comparable to the Core FFO reported by other REITs. A reconciliation of net income per share to Core FFO in dollars and per share is included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.

"Through strategic acquisitions, we continue to strengthen our portfolio with smart investments in valuable properties. Our position in core markets like the Hudson River Waterfront and East Boston will lead to strong returns for our investors," said Andrew Marshall, President and Chief Operating Officer of Roseland. "We are particularly excited to take a major step forward in realizing the strategic benefits of the Mack-Cali/Roseland partnership through our Morris Plains repositioning-a template we look forward to replicating elsewhere in our portfolio."
"The multi-family portfolio is projected to grow to over 13,000 operating or in-construction apartments by year-end 2018," said Michael J. DeMarco, President of Mack-Cali. "Regarding the Roseland equity raise, we have made significant progress in identifying investors and look forward to completing that process by early fall on terms beneficial to us. However, we believe that we have sufficient capital to complete all of our 2016 and 2017 projects either through capital on hand or previously invested sums."

Roseland Residential Trust Hosts Ribbon Cutting Ceremony For Newest Luxury Development, M2 At Marbella (6/23/16)
Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop Joins Roseland to Commemorate Completion of New Luxury Residential Community
EDISON, N.J., June 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Roseland Residential Trust, a subsidiary of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI), today marked the grand opening for M2 at Marbella, the newest luxury residential building located in downtown Jersey City. Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop joined municipal and company officials to celebrate Roseland's newest addition to the Jersey City market.
The 39-story luxury residential community, located at 401 Washington Boulevard, features 311 studios, one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartment homes, and joins Roseland's existing Marbella community where residents will benefit from shared amenities, including a shared parking garage.
Fulop said the newest apartment community to open is yet another example of Jersey City's emergence as a city where professionals come to enjoy a true live-work-play environment.
"Mack-Cali and its Roseland subsidiary have invested tremendous resources in both commercial and residential properties throughout Jersey City, including Mack-Cali's own corporate headquarters, and we are grateful for that," said Mayor Steven M. Fulop. "But more importantly, their investment in our neighborhoods and our communities speaks volumes about Mack-Cali's faith that Jersey City can look forward to continued prosperity, continued development, and continued growth."
As the newest addition to the Jersey City skyline, M2 at Marbella will provide residents with remarkable views of New York City and the Hudson Waterfront from the individual apartment homes as well as from the 800-square-foot rooftop terrace. The building features a wide variety of state-of-the-art amenities, including a 1,200-square-foot event room, as well as a sky lounge on the top floor of the building, a 1,700-square-foot club room with a lounge and billiard table, a conference room, two fitness centers with a yoga studio, a children's playroom, an on-site concierge, an on-site dog run, and bike storage.
Andrew Marshall, president and chief operating officer of Roseland Residential Trust, shared his excitement for the addition of M2 to the luxury multi-family rental market in Jersey City.
"We are thrilled to have M2 at Marbella open its doors and add to Jersey City's flourishing community," said Marshall. "The community offers residents unrivaled views of New York City's iconic skyline as well as proximity to numerous transit options. The host of amenities offered will provide enjoyment for every resident throughout the year."
M2 is connected to Roseland's existing residential community, Marbella, by a 16,000-square-foot landscaped roof deck with a pool, which will be accessible to residents of both luxury residential communities. In addition to the pool, the deck will provide residents with a variety of outdoor amenities to enjoy throughout the year, including a fireplace, fire pit, and outdoor grilling stations.
M2 is ideal for commuters due to its close proximity to various mass transportation services. The Hudson-Bergen Light Rail is located on-site and provides commuters with access to Hoboken and Bayonne. Additionally, a NJ TRANSIT bus stop is directly across the street from the new residential community and the Newport PATH station, which provides commuters with train service to Manhattan and is less than ¼ mile north of the property. Convenient highway access from M2 is available to residents, and Newark Liberty International Airport is located approximately 10 miles away. Additionally, a wide variety of recreational activities, dining options, and shops, including the Newport Centre Mall, are all located within walking distance of M2, making this one of the most walkable neighborhoods in Jersey City.

Downtown Worcester Renaissance Continues As Roseland Officially Breaks Ground On 145 Front Street At City Square (6/23/16)
237-unit Luxury Residential Community Featuring World-Class Amenities is a Part of Dramatic Transformation
EDISON, N.J., June 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Roseland Residential Trust, a wholly owned subsidiary of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI), yesterday held a groundbreaking ceremony with public officials for 145 Front Street at City Square in Worcester, Massachusetts. This project is the first of two phases, when complete it will be comprised of 365 apartment homes, phase one includes 237-apartment homes. It is a key component of the master-planned, mixed-use development that is revitalizing the city's downtown. Roseland anticipates a third quarter 2017 completion of this community.
The luxury residential community will be a draw for the many young professionals flocking to the revitalized Worcester, New England's second largest city. The property will feature studio, one-, and two-bedroom units, with a wide range of state-of-the-art amenities, including a stunning outdoor swimming pool with a sundeck, a courtyard with fire pit, barbecue grills, a dog run, and more. The building will also have a full-time concierge, a fitness center with on-demand yoga and spinning services, and a clubroom with billiards, computers, a lounge area, and a game room. Additionally, there will be 10,000 square feet of retail space at 145 Front Street.
The full mixed-use project includes a new hotel, public parking garage, and significant additional retail space. Downtown Worcester is ideally located steps from the Worcester Common and the new transportation hub at Worcester's Union Station offering multiple transport options, including Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) trains, Amtrak, and bus service. The MBTA offers service to Boston's South Station in approximately 90 minutes.
"Creating a vibrant downtown residential community gives our growing workforce the high-quality homes they need, and today marks a major milestone in Worcester's continuing renaissance," said Worcester Mayor Joseph M. Petty. "Downtown's transformation is made possible by partners like Roseland who are committed to making projects like this one a reality, and we look forward to continuing to work together for years to come."
"This development brings a new dimension in luxury living to the rapidly growing downtown Worcester area – an unrivaled set of amenities, convenience, and a high-end lifestyle," said Andrew Marshall, president and chief operating officer of Roseland Residential Trust. "This property and the entire development will make Worcester the quintessential urban live-work-play environment, and we are thrilled to be a part of it."
This property is expected to be especially attractive to Worcester's growing workforce in advanced manufacturing, information technology, biotechnology, and healthcare. There are a number of significant private and public sector employers in Worcester, including St. Vincent Hospital, UMass Memorial Medical Center, and the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences. The area is home to 12 colleges and universities with more than 35,000 students.
"The momentum of Downtown Worcester is plain to see, and the addition of Roseland's high-quality, market rate housing will only build on that energy," said City Manager Edward M. Augustus, Jr. "This is a great example of smart growth, bringing hundreds of people downtown to live near our intermodal transit hub, where they can take a bus across the city or an express train into Boston. As we continue to build density and downtown increasingly becomes a genuine neighborhood, I see even more great things on the horizon."
Roseland's focus on developing in downtown areas is readily apparent elsewhere in Massachusetts as well. The company is building Portside at East Pier in East Boston where it is redeveloping a stretch of waterfront property on Boston Harbor. Portside at East Pier is comprised of 181 apartment homes that are fully occupied, 296 that are currently under construction, and an additional future phase which will likely include a mix of apartment homes, condos, a hotel, and multiple public amenities. Roseland is also constructing The Chase II at Overlook Ridge five miles north of Boston. Chase II is a 292-apartment home community and part of a master-planned community, currently comprised of 1,400 apartment homes, and approved for a total of approximately 2,800 apartment homes.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
* All per share amounts presented below are on a diluted basis.
For the first quarter 2016, Core FFO was $0.49 per share after adjusting for a $913,000 valuation charge at quarter end for mark-to-market of unhedged interest rate swaps, as compared to $0.43 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. The quarter's Core FFO per share of $0.49 grew 13.9 percent from the same quarter last year primarily due to increased base rents and lower net property expenses.
Funds from operations (FFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 totaled $48.2 million, or $0.48 per share, as compared to $43.1 million, or $0.43 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2015.
Net income (loss) available to common shareholders for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 amounted to $62.2 million, or $0.69 per share, as compared to $(2.5) million, or $(0.03) per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Included in net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was $61.5 million of net gains from property-related transactions (net of noncontrolling interests in Operating Partnership of $7.2 million).
OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS
Mack-Cali's consolidated commercial in-service portfolio was 87.2 percent leased at March 31, 2016, as compared to 86.2 percent leased at December 31, 2015. The increase in percentage leased is primarily due to positive absorption through leasing activity of 0.8 percent and 0.2 percent as a result of sold properties.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company executed 82 leases at its consolidated in-service commercial portfolio totaling 1,124,140 square feet. Of these totals, 385,658 square feet were for new leases and 738,482 square feet were for lease renewals and other tenant retention transactions. Lease transactions included 349,423 square feet in Core properties, 551,674 square feet in Waterfront properties, 155,662 square feet in Flex properties and 67,381 square feet in Non-Core properties. Lease spreads on a GAAP basis were 9.7 percent for new leases and 18.9 percent for renewed or retained leases.
Mitchell E. Rudin, chief executive officer, commented "Looking at the markets, the activity in the Waterfront, Metropark, and Parsippany markets continues to be very strong. On the Waterfront, in addition to the transactions that we have signed, we have almost 1.3 million square feet of leases out or are in active discussions. Jersey City is on a roll and is on its way to becoming New Jersey's largest city and is one of the best mid-sized cities in the US. Not a week goes by without a favorable news piece on why Jersey City is the new hotspot for people to live, work, and play. We are certainly benefiting from this positive change in perception."
RECENT TRANSACTIONS
On January 5, 2016, the Company, which held a 50 percent subordinated interest in the unconsolidated Overlook Ridge Apartment Investors LLC, 371-unit multi-family operating property located in Malden, Massachusetts, acquired the remaining interest for $39.8 million in cash plus the assumption of a first mortgage loan secured by the property with a principal balance of $52.7 million. The cash portion of the acquisition was funded primarily through borrowings under the Company's unsecured revolving credit facility.
In March, the Company sold its 169,549 square-foot commercial office property located at 1201 Connecticut Avenue, NW in Washington D.C. for approximately $93 million and realized a gain of approximately $58.8 million on this transaction. Additionally in March, the Company sold its 67,401 square-foot commercial office property located at 2 Independence Way in Princeton, New Jersey for approximately $4.4 million and realized a loss of approximately $0.2 million on this transaction.
The Company recently announced that it reached an agreement to sell its remaining asset in Washington, D.C. at 1400 L Street for approximately $70.5 million, and on April 26, 2016, it completed the sale of 125 Broad Street, for approximately $202 million, exiting the New York City market. The Company expects to complete the 1400 L Street sale by May 2016.
BALANCE SHEET/CAPITAL MARKETS
In January 2016, the Company obtained a new $350 million unsecured term loan, which matures in January 2019 with two one-year extension options. The interest rate for the new term loan is currently 140 basis points over LIBOR, subject to adjustment on a sliding scale based on the Company's unsecured debt ratings, or at the Company's option, a defined leverage ratio. Mack-Cali entered into interest rate swap arrangements to fix LIBOR for the duration of the term loan. Including costs, the loan provides for a current all-in fixed rate of 3.13 percent. There is no premium or penalty associated with full or partial prepayment of the term loan.
Proceeds from the unsecured term loan were used primarily to repay outstanding borrowings on its $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility, and to repay the Company's $200 million, 5.8 percent senior unsecured notes that matured on January 15, 2016.
As of March 31, 2016, the Company had total indebtedness of approximately $2.3 billion, with a weighted average annual interest rate of approximately 4.95 percent and a debt-to-undepreciated assets ratio of 40.4 percent. The Company had an interest coverage ratio of 2.9 times for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.
DIVIDENDS
In March, the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.15 per common share (indicating an annual rate of $0.60 per common share) for the first quarter 2016, which was paid on April 15, 2016 to shareholders of records as of April 5, 2016.

INFORMATION ABOUT FFO
Funds from operations ("FFO") is defined as net income (loss) before noncontrolling interests of unitholders, computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), excluding gains or losses from depreciable rental property transactions, and impairments related to depreciable rental property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. The Company believes that FFO per share is helpful to investors as one of several measures of the performance of an equity REIT. The Company further believes that as FFO per share excludes the effect of depreciation, gains (or losses) from sales of properties and impairments related to depreciable rental property (all of which are based on historical costs which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance), FFO per share can facilitate comparison of operating performance between equity REITs.
FFO per share should not be considered as an alternative to net income available to common shareholders per share as an indication of the Company's performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO per share presented herein is not necessarily comparable to FFO per share presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definition.

Mack-Cali Updates Capital Markets Activity (4/26/16)
EDISON, N.J., April 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) today announced a series of transactions in the redeployment of disposition proceeds as part of its announced strategic plan. The Company has sold approximately $300 million of assets year to date. By May 18, the Company anticipates closing on an additional approximately $70 million in dispositions, has reached agreement on another $63 million of sales, and is currently marketing an additional $230 million in assets. The proceeds from these dispositions will be used to pay down debt, fund development, and purchase suitable acquisitions.
The year to date sales include 1201 Connecticut Avenue, NW in Washington, D.C., for $93 million and 125 Broad Street in Downtown Manhattan, which the Company closed on today for approximately $202 million, in a move to exit both the Manhattan and D.C. markets.
The Company has also reached an agreement with the lender on a $63.3 million mortgage secured by four New Jersey office properties. The loan had been accruing interest at a rate of 10.26 percent. The loan was recently repaid at a substantial discount using sale proceeds.
The Company has agreed to purchase two class A office assets for approximately $317 million in Hoboken, N.J., and Metropark in Edison, N.J., totaling approximately 800,000 square feet. Mack-Cali has also acquired three smaller assets for approximately $34 million. The acquisitions and repayment of debt total approximately $414 million.
The acquisitions include:
•111 River Street in Hoboken, N.J., will be purchased for $235 million. The 566,215-square-foot office property is Mack-Cali's first acquisition in the successful, high barrier-to-entry Hoboken market. With this acquisition, Mack-Cali will own approximately 25% of the Hudson River Waterfront class A office market. The acquisition is anticipated to close in June.
•101 Wood Avenue South in Metropark in Edison, N.J., will be purchased for $82.3 million. This 10-story, 262,835-square-foot class A office building is located in the highly successful Metropark class A submarket. This is Mack-Cali's second acquisition in Metropark and with this purchase will own approximately 20% of the Metropark submarket. The acquisition is expected to close in May.
Additionally, the Borough of Upper Saddle River has agreed to amend its zoning to provide for the development of for-sale residential homes on Mack-Cali's One Lake Street property. As a result, the Company has entered into an agreement to sell the bulk of the property – approximately 38 acres – to a major home developer, which will construct both market rate and affordable housing units. The remainder of the 47-acre property will be sold to the borough for the future construction of municipal offices and sports fields. The sales price aggregates to approximately $43 million. This transaction will likely be completed in early 2017.
"The sum total of this activity demonstrates clear progress toward achieving the strategic objectives we laid out for the Company," said Michael J. DeMarco, Mack-Cali president. "These moves reflect our disciplined approach to capital allocation and balance sheet maintenance while ensuring maximum earnings growth and pushing our stock price to over our NAV. The net effect of these transactions is estimated to be 9 cents of earnings accretion for a full year on a GAAP basis and 3 cents on a cash basis."
"Acquiring properties that meet with the Company's strategic plan's goals of creating a portfolio with long-term growth is one of our continuing goals. Both 111 River Street and 101 Wood Avenue will be among the top five office buildings we own," said DeMarco. "Both buildings are in key markets where we have seen rents rising in the short term and believe will continue to rise over the long term and have in-place rents that are substantially below market."
The acquisitions/dispositions and debt repayment are part of Mack-Cali's broad-based portfolio realignment announced as part of their strategic plan last September on balance sheet management while focusing on increasing holdings in waterfront and transit-based locations. To achieve this realignment, the Company has set a goal of $750 million in dispositions to help raise capital for reduction in debt, fund development, and key acquisitions.

Mack-Cali's Multi-Family Subsidiary, Roseland Residential Trust, Announces Key Investment Activity In The Hudson River Waterfront And Boston Markets (4/18/16)
EDISON, N.J., April 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) today announced Roseland Residential Trust ("Roseland") reached an agreement or completed the acquisition of various partners' interests in Port Imperial on the New Jersey Waterfront and in East Boston. In addition, Roseland is actively marketing for sale Andover Place in Andover, Massachusetts.
Roseland Residential Trust was formed January 1 to own, manage, and develop Mack-Cali's luxury multi-family residential portfolio. As part of the formation, Marshall Tycher became chairman and Andrew Marshall became president and chief operating officer. The multi-family portfolio is projected to more than double in size from approximately 7,000 apartment homes either operating or in construction to over 14,000 apartments by year-end 2018.
Roseland agreed to:
Port Imperial:
• Weehawken, New Jersey: The buyout of its partner's interests in five Port Imperial waterfront development parcels. Concurrent with the acquisition, Roseland commenced construction on one of the acquired parcels, RiverHouse, a 100 percent wholly owned 295-apartment home community.
• Weehawken: The buyout of its partner's interests in Port Imperial South 4/5 Garage and Retail, thereby increasing Roseland's ownership to 70 percent.
• Weehawken: Parcel 2 (potential condo parcel) will be transferred to a new entity with Roseland and its joint venture partner each holding a 50 percent ownership stake.
The cost of the Weehawken transactions is approximately $36 million.
• West New York, New Jersey: The buyout of its partner's 25 percent subordinate interest in RiverTrace, a 316-apartment community. Roseland now holds a 50 percent subordinate interest in the joint venture with UBS. The cost of the acquisition was approximately $11.3 million.
East Boston:
• East Boston, Massachusetts: Acquired its majority partner's interest in the 175-apartment Portside at East Pier 7 on the East Boston Waterfront, thereby increasing Roseland's interest to 85 percent. The cost of the acquisition was approximately $38.1 million. Roseland is currently building the adjacent 296-apartment project, Portside 5/6, also 85 percent owned by Roseland.
"The acquisitions outlined above provide Roseland with greater ownership along one of New Jersey's most valuable remaining waterfront areas, in addition to our waterfront presence in East Boston. It enables us to achieve one of our primary strategic objectives—to be the premier waterfront developer and owner in New Jersey and other Core markets," said Marshall Tycher, chairman of Roseland. "We were able to reach this goal at very attractive valuations, while at the same time greatly simplifying the ownership of our holdings."
These transactions result in Roseland acquiring 100 percent interests in land holdings in five valuable Port Imperial waterfront parcels with development potential for approximately 900 apartment homes and 300,000 square feet of office space, in addition to greater ownership interests of 175 apartment homes in the master-planned Portside at East Pier community. Additionally, Roseland increased its participation to an 85 percent interest in Portside 5/6—a 296-apartment home project currently under construction, as well as Portside 1-4—a planned mixed-use project, all at Portside at East Pier facing downtown Boston.
In addition, Roseland has begun marketing for sale the 220-apartment home Andover Place in Andover, Massachusetts. The Company is seeing strong interest and anticipates entering into a contract within the next 30 days.

To that point, our results represent another excellent quarter of progress and that our team's initial hard work is taking root as we move quickly and effectively on our ongoing transformation. While this is a long process, we believe that we are making meaningful changes that will be beneficial in both the near and long-term," said Michael J. DeMarco, president.

Full Year 2016 Range
Net income available to common shareholders: $0.06-$0.16

INFORMATION ABOUT FFO
Funds from operations ("FFO") is defined as net income (loss) before noncontrolling interest of unitholders, computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), excluding sales or disposals of depreciable rental property, and impairments related to depreciable rental property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. The Company believes that FFO per share is helpful to investors as one of several measures of the performance of an equity REIT. The Company further believes that as FFO per share excludes the effect of depreciation, gains (or losses) from sales of properties and impairments related to depreciable rental property (all of which are based on historical costs which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance), FFO per share can facilitate comparison of operating performance between equity REITs.
FFO per share should not be considered as an alternative to net income available to common shareholders per share as an indication of the Company's performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO per share presented herein is not necessarily comparable to FFO per share presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definition. However, the Company's FFO per share is comparable to the
FFO per share of real estate companies that use the current definition of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). A reconciliation of net income per share to FFO per share is included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.
Core FFO is defined as FFO, as adjusted for certain items to facilitate comparative measurement of the Company's performance over time. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not intended to represent cash flow and is not indicative of cash flows provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. Core FFO is presented solely as supplemental disclosure that the Company's management believes provides useful information regarding the Company's operating performance and its ability to fund its dividends. There is not a generally accepted definition established for Core FFO. Therefore, the Company's measures of Core FFO may not be comparable to the Core FFO reported by other REITs. A reconciliation of net income per share to Core FFO in dollars and per share is included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.

The Chase, completed in early 2014, is currently more than 96 percent leased and is the most recent completion in Roseland's Overlook Ridge community. Roseland had been a joint venture partner in the community. The conversion of ownership from a joint venture to wholly owned asset will immediately and significantly increase Roseland's return on investment.
The building features studios, one- and two-bedrooms, and two bedrooms-plus-den units, as well as a host of high-end community amenities, including two state-of-the-art fitness centers, yoga studio, clubhouse with fireplace and billiards table, dog washing station, a screening and gaming room, fire pits, outdoor swimming pool, playground, and tennis courts.

Roseland owns development rights to approximately 800 additional units at Overlook Ridge and owns the 722-unit Alterra community.
The community's location provides easy access to a wide range of transportation options, including Route 1 and complimentary shuttle service to nearby T stations. It is also a quick trip to Logan International Airport and just minutes away from Revere Beach.

Mack-Cali Announces Acquisition Of Metropark Property In Edison (11/16/15)
Property to Be Renovated and Integrated With Existing Property to Form Corporate Campus
EDISON, N.J., Nov. 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) today announced the purchase of 333 Thornall Street in Edison, New Jersey, a class A office building located in Metropark, a major transit hub. The purchase price was approximately $53.1 million.
Known as Metroview, the property is approximately 96 percent leased and includes 196,000 square feet of office space. The building is located adjacent to Mack-Cali's 343 Thornall Street.
"Metroview is a great complement to our existing 195,700-square-foot asset next door and is another in a series of moves designed to refocus our holdings toward transit-based office assets," said Mack-Cali president Michael DeMarco. "This market is known for its strong rental demands and high occupancies, owing in part to its location just down the road from the nearby transit hub, making it an ideal example of what we are striving to accomplish with our new strategy."
333 Thornall Street is a LEED(R) Silver certified building with easy access to routes 287, 1, and 27, as well as the New Jersey Turnpike and Garden State Parkway. The nearby transit hub offers both NJ TRANSIT and Amtrak service and is within walking distance of the complex. Major hotels, dining, and retail are also located in close proximity.
The company plans to integrate its existing building with the new acquisition through the construction of an interconnected, landscaped walkway providing access to the shared amenities, as well as terraced, outdoor seating and various exercise components creating an approximately 400,000-square-foot campus.
"While the buildings are already attractive because of their outstanding location, we plan to add to the existing amenities to make it an even more appealing option for central New Jersey businesses," said Ricardo Cardoso, executive vice president and chief investment officer. "The addition of a new fitness center, conference rooms, Wi-Fi, and multiple dining options will transform the space into an outstanding class A office campus."
The acquisition of 333 Thornall Street is part of Mack-Cali's strategy to focus resources on transit-based real estate, as well as waterfront properties. The purchase of 333 Thornall Street is one of the new leadership team's high profile moves in that direction.

Roseland Announces Construction Commencement At Two Key Massachusetts Residential Communities (11/10/15)
The Chase II at Overlook Ridge and 145 Front @ City Square
Urban, Transit-Oriented Communities with Access to Downtown Areas
EDISON, N.J., Nov. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Roseland, a subsidiary of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI), today announced that it started construction on two luxury multi-family communities—The Chase II at Overlook Ridge and 145 Front @ City Square. Consistent with parent company Mack-Cali's strategic plan, each of these communities will give residents access to outstanding regional transit options, easy access to downtown areas, and urban live-work-play environments. Roseland's multi-family assets in the Overlook Ridge submarket comprise approximately 1,400 units, making the Company one of the region's largest owners.
"These two properties are signature developments of Roseland and will reinforce our position as a premier developer, owner, and operator of multi-family residential units in the region," said Marshall Tycher, president of Roseland. "These two communities are perfectly reflective of the priorities embedded in our strategic plan; we are creating best-in-class urban residences with every amenity and convenience residents desire."
The Chase II at Overlook Ridge is located just five miles north of Boston in Malden. It will feature units with stainless steel appliances, hardwood flooring, and granite countertops. Community amenities will include a fitness center with state-of-the-art cardio and weight training equipment, yoga room, club room with billiards table, media room equipped with a gaming system, and an outdoor swimming pool. In addition, residents will have access to the amenities recently opened in the adjacent Chase I property.
Like the rest of Overlook Ridge, The Chase II's location provides easy access to a wide range of transportation options, including Route 1 and complimentary shuttle service to nearby T stations. It is also a quick trip to Logan International Airport and just minutes away from Revere Beach.
Overlook Ridge is a 92-acre, master-planned community comprised of Roseland's Alterra I and II developments, with 722 stabilized apartments. When completed, The Chase II's 292 units will operate as part of a combined 663-unit community, together with the recently stabilized Chase I. Further, Roseland owns development rights at Overlook Ridge for approximately 800 additional units. The company is finalizing a $48 million construction loan facility on which it plans to close within the next several weeks.
145 Front @ City Square is a 237-unit luxury apartment community that is the first of a two-phased residential development which is part of the redevelopment and revitalization of downtown Worcester, New England's second largest city. The project will include a parking garage to accommodate this phase as well as the to-be-developed Phase II, which will include an additional 128 residential units. It is only steps from Worcester Common, and across the street from the new transportation hub at Worcester's Union Station with Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA), Amtrak, and bus service. The MBTA offers service to Boston's South Station in approximately 90 minutes. Additionally, the site has access to the entire region from major roads with highway proximity to I-290, I-90 (Mass Pike), I-495, and local routes 9 and 146, putting downtown Boston less than a one hour's drive away.
The project is part of a 12-acre, master-planned community that will include an under construction 150-key hotel, a recently completed 65,000-square-foot St. Vincent Hospital medical facility, and a recently completed 214,000-square-foot office tower occupied by Unum Insurance. The master plan also calls for the development of parking garages, additional office space, and street level retail to be developed by the seller, CitySquare II Development Corporation LLC (an affiliate of Hanover Insurance Group) or prospective buyers of the various components.
This property will be especially attractive to the area workforce in Worcester's booming advanced manufacturing, information technology, biotechnology, and healthcare sectors. Major employers with a Worcester presence include the Hanover Insurance Group, Saint-Gobain North America, Sunovion Pharmaceuticals, Polar Beverages, and JTX Companies. Worcester's healthcare sector includes St. Vincent Hospital, UMass Memorial Medical Center, and the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences. The area is also home to 12 colleges and universities with more than 35,000 students.
"This exciting project will capitalize on the incredible growth and revival of downtown Worcester, giving tenants convenient access to work and entertainment only steps away from their home," said Andrew Marshall, executive vice president and chief operating officer of Roseland. "Given this project's unparalleled access to highways and public transportation, we also expect it to draw residents from a wider geographic area, including nearby towns like Marlborough, Westborough, and Framingham—making this a true regional residential destination."
Roseland is finalizing a $41.5 million construction loan facility to support the build-out of this project.

Mack-Cali's Roseland Subsidiary Announces Financing And Commencement Of Port Imperial Hotel Project (11/09/15)
EDISON, N.J., Nov. 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Roseland, a subsidiary of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI), today announced that it is moving forward with its project to build dual branded Marriott hotels at Port Imperial, the company's flagship $3 billion mixed-use, master-planned, waterfront development. Roseland and its partner XSS Hotels secured approximately $94 million in financing for a syndicated construction loan led by Fifth Third Bank, with additional syndicated lending institutions including Santandar and Investors Savings Bank.
The project includes a full-service, 210-key Renaissance hotel and a 154-key Residence Inn. The complex will feature extensive meeting and function space for 450 guests and a 15,000-square-foot deck off the sixth floor sky lobby with unobstructed direct views of Midtown Manhattan. Once completed, this will represent the only Marriott branded full-service and extended-stay product along New Jersey's Gold Coast.
"The boom of interest in the Weehawken waterfront is a testament to the appeal of urban mixed-use communities that offer superior transit options," said Marshall Tycher, president of Roseland. "These hotels will be the signature amenity for Port Imperial and the entire waterfront, and will signal the continued growth of all sectors in this prime market."
Roseland's Port Imperial development spans two-and-a-half miles and includes a waterfront walkway with parks, providing recreation to visitors and residents. It is a vital part of parent company Mack-Cali's recently announced three-year strategic plan to focus on high-end waterfront and transit-oriented properties. Roseland has transformed the urban site into a significant residential, commercial, and transportation center that is home to an inter-modal transportation hub with ferry, bus, and light rail service.
The Renaissance will be a full-service hotel with luxury guest rooms, a lounge, and breakfast space. The Residence Inn will cater to "extended stay" guests, typically those spending an average of four or five nights. It will feature guest rooms with 400+ square feet of space and a fully-equipped, en-suite kitchen, as well as free hot breakfast served daily.
The hotels will be built on top of the 850-space Port Imperial parking garage with 17,000 square feet of ground-level retail space next to the NY Waterway ferry terminal. Each hotel will have its own ground-level entrance and lobby, with a connection on the sixth floor to provide guests with shared access to the outdoor terrace, function space, pool, fitness center, and high-end restaurant.
The two hotels are expected to create more than 100 permanent full-time jobs in Weehawken and are expected to be completed by the end of 2017.
"These hotels are a crowning achievement for the Port Imperial project and we are excited that it is moving forward," said Richard Turner, mayor of Weehawken. "From permanent jobs to world-class amenities these hotels will provide lasting benefits for the people of Weehawken."

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
* All per share amounts presented below are on a diluted basis.
Funds from operations (FFO) for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 totaled $51.5 million, or $0.51 per share, as compared to $48.0 million, or $0.48 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2014.

RECENT TRANSACTIONS
In September, the Company announced the topping out of URL® Harborside 1 at 713 feet, making the new multi-family tower on the Jersey City waterfront the tallest residential building in New Jersey. URL® Harborside 1 is a uniquely-designed, 69-story residential tower that will add 763 contemporary rental residences to Mack-Cali's Harborside on the Jersey City waterfront.
On October 23, 2015, the Company signed an agreement to acquire a 196,000 square-foot office property located in Edison, New Jersey, for approximately $53.1 million, subject to certain conditions. The acquisition is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2015.
The Company is also in discussions to acquire a 147,000 square-foot office building located in Parsippany, New Jersey, as well its partner's interest in a 371-unit multi-family residential property located in Malden, Massachusetts.
DISPOSITIONS
In September 2015, the Company announced a comprehensive three-year strategic initiative to transform the Company into dual-platform owner of waterfront and transit-oriented office properties and a regional owner of luxury multi-family properties. As part of its increased focus on "Gold Coast" waterfront properties in Jersey City Weehawken, Hoboken, and West New York, the Company identified approximately $700 million to $800 million of non-core assets that it intends to sell to help fund its capital plan and transformation.
During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company transferred the deeds for two of its office properties to the lender in satisfaction of its mortgage loan obligations. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded gains on the disposal of office properties of $18.7 million and $28.4 million, respectively.
As a result of identifying the non-core assets for sale, the Company evaluated the recoverability of the carrying values of these properties, and determined that due to the shortening of the expected periods of ownership, it was necessary to reduce the carrying values of 22 rental properties to their estimated fair values. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $158.6 million at September 30, 2015.
In addition, the Company estimated that the carrying value of three mortgaged properties, aggregating 479,877 square feet and located in Roseland and Parsippany, New Jersey, may not be recoverable over their anticipated holding periods and recorded impairment charges of $5.6 million at September 30, 2015.
BALANCE SHEET/CAPITAL MARKETS
As of September 30, 2015, the Company had total indebtedness of approximately $2.0 billion, with a weighted average annual interest rate of approximately 5.4 percent and a debt-to-undepreciated assets ratio of 37.6 percent. The Company had an interest coverage ratio of 3.1 times and 2.8 times for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.

2015
$1.83 - $1.87
