MACK-CALI REALTY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands, except per share/unit amounts)
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
ORGANIZATION
Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation, together with its subsidiaries (the "Company"), is a fully-integrated, self-administered, self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") providing leasing, management, acquisition, development, construction and tenant-related services for its properties. As of September 30, 2002, the Company owned or had interests in 262 properties plus developable land (collectively, the "Properties"). The Properties aggregate approximately 29.0 million square feet, which are comprised of 153 office buildings and 96 office/flex buildings, totaling approximately 28.5 million square feet (which include six office buildings and one office/flex building aggregating 2.1 million square feet, owned by unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company has investment interests), six industrial/warehouse buildings totaling approximately 387,400 square feet, three stand-alone retail properties totaling approximately 118,040 square feet (which includes one retail property totaling approximately 100,740 square feet, owned by an unconsolidated joint venture in which the Company has an investment interest), one hotel (which is owned by an unconsolidated joint venture in which the Company has an investment interest) and three land leases. The Properties are located in nine states, primarily in the Northeast, plus the District of Columbia.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company, its majority-owned and/or controlled subsidiaries, which consist principally of Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. ("Operating Partnership"). See Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures in Note 2 for the Company's treatment of unconsolidated joint venture interests. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Rental Property
Rental properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Costs directly related to the acquisition, development and construction of rental properties are capitalized. Capitalized development and construction costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development and construction costs, interest, property taxes, insurance, salaries and other project costs incurred during the period of development. Included in total rental property is construction and development in-progress of $189,702 and $210,463 (including land of $48,804 and $54,169) as of September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred; major replacements and betterments, which improve or extend the life of the asset, are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Fully-depreciated assets are removed from the accounts.
8
The Company considers a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity (as distinguished from activities such as routine maintenance and cleanup). If portions of a rental project are substantially completed and occupied by tenants, or held available for occupancy, and other portions have not yet reached that stage, the substantially completed portions are accounted for as a separate project. The Company allocates costs incurred between the portions under construction and the portions substantially completed and held available for occupancy.
Properties are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Leasehold interests | Remaining lease term | |
Buildings and improvements | 5 to 40 years | |
Tenant improvements | The shorter of the term of the related lease or useful life | |
Furniture, fixtures and equipment | 5 to 10 years | |
On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the rental properties may be impaired. A property's value is impaired only if management's estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property are less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the fair value of the property. Management does not believe that the value of any of the Company's rental properties is impaired.
Rental Property Held for Sale
When assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Company discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the sales price, net of selling costs, of such assets. If, in management's opinion, the net sales price of the assets which have been identified for sale is less than the net book value of the assets, a valuation allowance is established. See Note 6.
If circumstances arise that previously were considered unlikely and, as a result, the Company decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the property is reclassified as held and used. A property that is reclassified is measured and recorded individually at the lower of (a) its carrying amount before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation (amortization) expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used, or (b) the fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell. See Note 6.
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which supercedes SFAS No. 121. SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets that are to be disposed of by sale be measured at the lower of book value or fair value less cost to sell. SFAS No. 144 retains the requirements of SFAS No. 121 regarding impairment loss recognition and measurement. In addition, it requires that one accounting model be used for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale and broadens the presentation of discontinued operations to include more disposal transactions. As the statement requires implementation on a prospective basis, properties which were identified as held for sale by the Company prior to January 1, 2002 are presented in the accompanying financial statements in a manner consistent with the prior year's presentation. As there were no additional properties identified as held for sale in the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company did not report any discontinued operations for the periods presented.
9
Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting as the Company exercises significant influence, but does not control these entities. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, and subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions. See Note 4.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents.
Deferred Financing Costs
Costs incurred in obtaining financing are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, over the term of the related indebtedness. Amortization of such costs is included in interest expense and was $1,176 and $1,180 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $3,529 and $3,462 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Deferred Leasing Costs
Costs incurred in connection with leases are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases and included in depreciation and amortization. Unamortized deferred leasing costs are charged to amortization expense upon early termination of the lease. Certain employees of the Company are compensated for providing leasing services to the Properties. The portion of such compensation, which is capitalized and amortized, approximated $908 and $899 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $2,604 and $2,501 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash includes tenant security deposits and escrow and reserve funds for debt service, real estate taxes, property insurance, capital improvements, tenant improvements, and leasing costs established pursuant to certain mortgage financing arrangements.
Derivative Instruments
The Company measures its derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, at fair value and records them as an asset or liability, depending on the Company's rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract. For derivatives designated as fair value hedges, the changes in the fair value of both the derivative instrument and the hedged item are recorded in earnings. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portions of changes in fair value of the derivative are reported in other comprehensive income ("OCI") and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedging and ineffective portions of hedges are recognized in earnings in the affected period. See Note 9—Interest Rate Hedge.
Revenue Recognition
Base rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Unbilled rents receivable represents the amount by which straight-line rental revenue exceeds rents currently billed in accordance with the lease agreements. Parking and other revenue includes income from parking spaces leased to tenants, income from tenants for additional services provided by the
10
Company, income from tenants for early lease terminations and income from managing and/or leasing properties for third parties.
Reimbursements are received from tenants for certain costs as provided in the lease agreements. These costs generally include real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable costs. See Note 12.
Income and Other Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to corporate federal income tax on net income that it currently distributes to its shareholders, provided that the Company satisfies certain organizational and operational requirements including the requirement to distribute at least 90 percent of its REIT taxable income to its shareholders. The Company may elect to treat one or more of its corporate subsidiaries as a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS"). In general, a TRS of the Company may perform additional services for tenants of the Company and generally may engage in any real estate or non-real estate related business (except for the operation or management of health care facilities or lodging facilities or the providing to any person, under a franchise, license or otherwise, rights to any brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated). A TRS is subject to corporate federal income tax. The Company has elected to treat certain of its existing and newly created corporate subsidiaries as a TRS. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. The Company is subject to certain state and local taxes.
Earnings Per Share
The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS"). Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, where such exercise or conversion would result in a lower EPS amount.

Stock Options
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and
11
related Interpretations ("APB No. 25"). Under APB No. 25, compensation cost is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of grant over the exercise price of the option granted. Compensation cost for stock options, if any, is recognized ratably over the vesting period. The Company's policy is to grant options with an exercise price equal to the quoted closing market price of the Company's stock on the business day preceding the grant date. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized under the Company's stock option plans for the granting of stock options. See Note 13.

The Company holds a 50 percent interest in the joint venture. Among other things, the partnership agreement provides for a preferred return on the Company's invested capital in the venture, in addition to the Company's proportionate share of the venture's profit, as defined in the agreement.

Such options may obligate the venture to construct an additional building or, at the Company's option, to make space available in any of its existing Harborside properties. Should the venture be unable to or choose not to provide such expansion space, the venture would be liable to Schwab for its actual damages, in no event to exceed $15,000. The amount of Schwab's actual damages, up to $15,000, has been guaranteed by the Company. The project, which commenced initial operations in September 2002, is currently projected to cost the Company approximately $145,000, of which $113,685 has been incurred by the Company through September 30, 2002.

RAMLAND REALTY ASSOCIATES L.L.C. (One Ramland Road)
On August 20, 1998, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with S.B. New York Realty Corp. to form Ramland Realty Associates L.L.C. The venture was formed to own, manage and operate One Ramland Road, a 232,000 square-foot office/flex building and adjacent developable land, located in Orangeburg, Rockland County, New York. In August 1999, the joint venture completed redevelopment of the property and placed the office/flex building in service. The Company holds a 50 percent interest in the joint venture. In 2001, the property's principal tenant, Superior Bank was closed by the Office of Thrift Supervision, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) was named receiver. The tenant continued to meet its rental payment obligations through June 2002. In July 2002, the tenant vacated the premises and the FDIC notified the joint venture that it was rejecting the lease as of July 16, 2002. As a result of the uncertainty regarding the tenant's ability to meet its obligations through the remainder of the term of its lease, the joint venture wrote off unbilled rents receivable of $1,573 and deferred lease costs of $705, which is included in the Company's equity in earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The Company performs management, leasing and other services for the property owned by the joint venture and recognized $4, $53, $25 and $75 in fees for such services for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
ASHFORD LOOP ASSOCIATES L.P. (1001 South Dairy Ashford/2100 West Loop South)
On September 18, 1998, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Prudential to form Ashford Loop Associates L.P. The venture was formed to own, manage and operate 1001 South Dairy Ashford, a 130,000 square-foot office building acquired on September 18, 1998, and 2100 West Loop South, a 168,000 square-foot office building acquired on November 25, 1998, both located in Houston, Harris County, Texas. The Company holds a 20 percent interest in the joint venture. The Company performed management and leasing services through March 2002 for the properties owned by the joint venture and recognized none, $45, $47 and $140 in fees for such services for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Under certain circumstances, Prudential has the right to convert its interest in the venture into common stock of the Company at a discount to the stock's fair market value, based on the underlying fair value of Prudential's interest in the venture at the time of conversion.
In May 2002, the Company sent a notice to Prudential electing to exercise its option under the buy-sell provisions of the joint venture agreement. Subsequently, Prudential sent notice to the Company that it was exercising its option to put its interest in the joint venture to the Company in exchange for common stock of the Company as described above. Pursuant to the provisions of the joint venture agreement, the Company, at its option, can elect to exchange cash in lieu of stock for Prudential's interest. The Company believes its prior exercise of the buy-sell provisions acts to foreclose Prudential's subsequent election to exchange its interest for stock, a position being disputed by Prudential. The partners are currently in discussions about the relevant provisions of the agreement. However, the ultimate resolution of the dispute is not yet determinable.
ARCAP INVESTORS, L.L.C.
In 1999, the Company invested $20,000 in ARCap Investors, L.L.C., a joint venture with several participants, which was formed to invest in sub-investment grade tranches of commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS").

16
assets, comprised principally of subordinated CMBS recorded at market value. On October 2, 2002, the Company entered into a letter of intent to sell its interest in the venture for approximately $20,224.

The Company has an agreement with SJP Properties, which provides for a cooperative effort in seeking approvals to develop up to approximately 1.8 million square feet of office development on certain vacant land owned by the Company and SJP Properties, in Hanover and Parsippany, Morris County, New Jersey. The agreement provides that the parties shall share equally in the costs associated with seeking such requisite approvals. Upon mutual consent, the Company and SJP Properties may enter into one or more joint ventures to construct on the vacant land, or seek to dispose of their respective vacant land parcels subject to the agreement. Pursuant to the agreement with SJP Properties, on August 24, 2000, the Company entered into a joint venture with SJP Properties to form MC-SJP Morris V Realty, LLC and MC-SJP Morris VI Realty, LLC, which acquired developable land for approximately $16,193. The acquired land is able to accommodate approximately 650,000 square feet of office space and is located in Parsippany, Morris County, New Jersey. The venture entered into an agreement pertaining to the acquired land and two other land parcels in Parsippany with an insurance company to provide for a guarantee on the funding of the development of four office properties, aggregating 850,000 square feet. Such agreement provides, if the venture elects to develop, that the insurance company will be admitted to the joint venture and provide all the equity required to fund the development, subject to certain conditions. In addition, the venture obtained a loan on the acquired land from a bank, which is guaranteed by the insurance company.
SOUTH PIER AT HARBORSIDE—HOTEL DEVELOPMENT
On November 17, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with Hyatt Corporation ("Hyatt") to develop a 350-room hotel on the Company's South Pier at Harborside Financial Center, Jersey City, Hudson County, New Jersey, which commenced operations in July 2002. The total cost of the project is estimated to be approximately $103,000. The venture has obtained a construction loan of $63,700, which each partner, including the Company, has severally guaranteed repayment of approximately $11,148. Additionally, the Company has posted an $8,000 letter of credit in support of another loan to the joint venture, $4,000 of which is indemnified by Hyatt. In addition, the Company and Hyatt have guaranteed completion of the hotel project to the joint venture's construction lender. If the joint venture fails to complete the hotel project as required under the construction loan documents and the construction loan proceeds remaining to be advanced together with the capital contributed by the partners through such date are insufficient to complete the hotel project, the Company and/or Hyatt may be required to provide additional funds sufficient to complete the hotel project.

8. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY
On September 27, 2002, the Operating Partnership obtained an unsecured revolving credit facility ("2002 Unsecured Facility") with a current borrowing capacity of $600,000 from a group of 14 lenders. The interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the credit line is currently the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") (1.81 percent at September 30, 2002) plus 70 basis points. The Company may instead elect an interest rate representing the higher of the lender's prime rate or the Federal Funds rate plus 50 basis points. The 2002 Unsecured Facility also requires a 20 basis point facility fee on the current borrowing capacity payable quarterly in arrears. The 2002 Unsecured Facility matures in September 2005, with an extension option of one year, which would require a payment of 25 basis points of the then borrowing capacity of the credit line upon exercise.
In the event of a change in the Operating Partnership's unsecured debt rating, the interest and facility fee rates will be adjusted in accordance with the following table:
Operating Partnership's Unsecured Debt Ratings: S&P/Moody's/Fitch(a) | Interest Rate— Applicable Basis Points Above LIBOR | Facility Fee Basis Points | ||
---|---|---|---|---|
No rating or less than BBB-/Baa3/BBB- | 120.0 | 30.0 | ||
BBB-/Baa3/BBB- | 95.0 | 20.0 | ||
BBB/Baa2/BBB (current) | 70.0 | 20.0 | ||
BBB+/Baa1/BBB+ | 65.0 | 15.0 | ||
A-/A3/A- or higher | 60.0 | 15.0 |
- (a)
- If the Operating Partnership has debt ratings from two rating agencies, one of which is Standard & Poor's Rating Services ("S&P") or Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"), the rates per the above table shall be based on the lower of such ratings. If the Operating Partnership has debt ratings from three rating agencies, one of which is S&P or Moody's, the rates per the above table shall be based on the lower of the two highest ratings. If the Operating Partnership has debt ratings from only one agency, it will be considered to have no rating or less than BBB-/Baa3/BBB- per the above table.
The Company previously had an unsecured revolving credit facility ("2000 Unsecured Facility") with a borrowing capacity of $800,000 from a group of 24 lenders. The interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the credit line was LIBOR plus 80 basis points. The Company had the option to elect an interest rate representing the higher of the lender's prime rate or the Federal Funds rate plus 50 basis points. The 2000 Unsecured Facility also required a 20 basis point facility fee on the current borrowing capacity payable quarterly in arrears. In conjunction with obtaining the 2002 Unsecured Facility, the Company repaid in full and terminated the 2000 Unsecured Facility on September 27, 2002.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
TAX ABATEMENT AGREEMENTS
Harborside Financial Center
Pursuant to an agreement with the City of Jersey City, New Jersey, the Company is required to make payments in lieu of property taxes ("PILOT") on its Harborside Plaza 2 and 3 properties. The agreement, which commenced in 1990, is for a term of 15 years. Such PILOT is equal to two percent of Total Project Costs, as defined, in year one and increases by $75 per annum through year 15. Total Project Costs, as defined, are $145,644. The PILOT totaled $945 and $941 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $2,814 and $2,760 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The PILOT on these two properties has been challenged as part of a larger effort by several neighboring towns to question past practices of the City of Jersey City in attracting large development. If this challenge is successful, the properties will be placed back on the regular tax roles for tax years beginning with 1998. While the Company cannot at this time determine the likely outcome of this challenge, the effect, if successful, of the challenge on the tax assessments against the properties, or the amount of the increase, if any, in taxes assessed resulting from a successful challenge, the Company does not believe that the outcome will result in a material adverse impact to the Company as there is the potential that the majority of any increase in the expense at the properties may be passed along to the properties' tenants.
The Company entered into a similar PILOT agreement with the City of Jersey City, New Jersey on its Harborside Plaza 4-A property. The agreement, which commenced in 2000, is for a term of 20 years.
25
The PILOT is equal to two percent of Total Project costs, as defined, and increases by 10 percent in years 7, 10 and 13 and by 50 percent in year 16. Total Project costs, as defined, are $45,497. The PILOT totaled $252 and $202 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $715 and $639 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Additionally, the Company entered into a similar PILOT agreement with the City of Jersey City, New Jersey on its Harborside Plaza 5 property. The agreement, which will commence upon substantial completion of the property, as defined, is for a term of 20 years. The PILOT is equal to two percent of Total Project Costs, as defined, and increases by 10 percent in years 7, 10 and 13, and by 50 percent in year 16. Total Project Costs, per the agreement, are the greater of $132,294 or actual Total Project Costs, as defined. The PILOT totaled $206 and none for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $206 and none for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
The Company is a defendant in other litigation arising in the normal course of business activities. Management does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a materially adverse effect upon the Company.
12. TENANT LEASES
The Properties are leased to tenants under operating leases with various expiration dates through 2018. Substantially all of the leases provide for annual base rents plus recoveries and escalation charges based upon the tenant's proportionate share of and/or increases in real estate taxes and certain operating costs, as defined, and the pass through of charges for electrical usage.
13. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
To maintain its qualification as a REIT, not more than 50 percent in value of the outstanding shares of the Company may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals at any time during the last half of any taxable year of the Company, other than its initial taxable year (defined to include certain entities), applying certain constructive ownership rules. To help ensure that the Company will not fail this test, the Company's Articles of Incorporation provide for, among other things, certain restrictions on the transfer of common stock to prevent further concentration of stock ownership. Moreover, to evidence compliance with these requirements, the Company must maintain records that disclose the actual ownership of its outstanding common stock and demands written statements each year from the holders of record of designated percentages of its common stock requesting the disclosure of the beneficial owners of such common stock.
COMMON STOCK REPURCHASES
On August 6, 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a share repurchase program ("Repurchase Program") under which the Company was permitted to purchase up to $100,000 of the Company's outstanding common stock. Purchases could be made from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing prices or through privately negotiated transactions. Under the Repurchase Program, the Company purchased for constructive retirement 1,869,200 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate cost of approximately $52,562 from August 1998 through December 1999.
On September 13, 2000, the Board of Directors authorized an increase to the Repurchase Program under which the Company is permitted to purchase up to an additional $150,000 of the Company's outstanding common stock above the $52,562 that had previously been purchased. The Company purchased for constructive retirement 3,354,800 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate cost of approximately $92,749 from September 13, 2000 through September 30, 2002. From October 1, 2002 through November 4, 2002, the Company purchased an additional 127,700 shares of its common stock for an aggregate cost of approximately $3,933.
26
STOCK OPTION PLANS
In September 2000, the Company established the 2000 Employee Stock Option Plan ("2000 Employee Plan") and the 2000 Director Stock Option Plan ("2000 Director Plan"). In May 2002, shareholders of the Company approved amendments to both plans to increase the total shares reserved for issuance under both plans from 2,700,000 to 4,350,000 shares (subject to adjustment) of the Company's common stock (from 2,500,000 to 4,000,000 shares under the 2000 Employee Plan and from 200,000 to 350,000 shares under the 2000 Director Plan). In 1994, and as subsequently amended, the Company established the Mack-Cali Employee Stock Option Plan ("Employee Plan") and the Mack-Cali Director Stock Option Plan ("Director Plan") under which a total of 5,380,188 shares (subject to adjustment) of the Company's common stock have been reserved for issuance (4,980,188 shares under the Employee Plan and 400,000 shares under the Director Plan). Stock options granted under the Employee Plan in 1994 and 1995 have become exercisable over a three-year period and those options granted under both the 2000 Employee Plan and Employee Plan subsequent to 1995 become exercisable over a five-year period. All stock options granted under both the 2000 Director Plan and Director Plan become exercisable in one year. All options were granted at the fair market value at the dates of grant and have terms of ten years. As of September 30, 2002, the stock options outstanding had a weighted average remaining contractual life of approximately 6.6 years.
Information regarding the Company's stock option plans is summarized below:

STOCK COMPENSATION
The Company has granted stock awards to officers and certain other employees of the Company (collectively, "Restricted Stock Awards"), which allow the employees to each receive a certain amount
27
of shares of the Company's common stock generally over a five-year vesting period. Certain Restricted Stock Awards are contingent upon the Company meeting certain performance and/or stock price appreciation objectives. All Restricted Stock Awards provided to the officers and certain other employees were granted under the 2000 Employee Plan and Employee Plan.

DEFERRED STOCK COMPENSATION PLAN FOR DIRECTORS
The Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors, which commenced January 1, 1999, allows non-employee directors of the Company to elect to defer up to 100 percent of their annual retainer fee into deferred stock units. The deferred stock units are convertible into an equal number of shares of common stock upon the directors' termination of service from the Board of Directors or a change in control of the Company, as defined in the plan. Deferred stock units are credited to each director quarterly using the closing price of the Company's common stock on the applicable dividend record date for the respective quarter. Each participating director's account is also credited for an equivalent amount of deferred stock units based on the dividend rate for each quarter.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, 3,861 and 4,120 deferred stock units were earned, respectively.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

14. SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company operates in one business segment—real estate. The Company provides leasing, management, acquisition, development, construction and tenant-related services for its portfolio. The Company does not have any foreign operations. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2, excluding straight-line rent adjustments and depreciation and amortization.
The Company evaluates performance based upon net operating income from the combined properties in the segment.
Selected results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 and selected asset information as of September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 regarding the Company's operating segment are as follows:

15. IMPACT OF RECENTLY-ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
SFAS No. 145
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, Rescission of FASB No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB No. 13 and Technical Corrections. This statement eliminates the requirement to report gains and losses from extinguishment of debt as extraordinary unless they meet the criteria of APB Opinion 30. Debt extinguishments that were classified as extraordinary in prior periods presented that do not meet the criteria of APB Opinion 30 shall be reclassified. FASB No. 145 is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The impact of the adoption of FASB No. 145 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
SFAS No. 146
SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, was recently issued in July 2002 and nullifies EITF 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).
The principal difference between SFAS No. 146 and EITF 94-3 relates to its requirements for recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity. FAS 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under EITF 94-3, a liability for an exit cost as defined in EITF 94-3 was recognized at the
31
date of an entity's commitment to an exit plan. A fundamental conclusion reached by the Board in FAS 146 is that an entity's commitment to a plan, by itself, does not create a present obligation to others that meets the definition of a liability. Therefore, FAS 146 eliminates the definition and requirements for recognition of exit costs in EITF 94-3 and also establishes that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the liability.
The provisions of SFAS No. 146 shall be effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. Previously issued financial statements shall not be restated. For purposes of SFAS No. 146, an exit or disposal activity is initiated when management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to an exit or disposal plan or otherwise disposes of a long-lived asset (disposal group) and, if the activity involves the termination of employees, the criteria for a plan of termination in SFAS No. 146. The impact of the adoption of FASB No. 146 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation and the notes thereto (collectively, the "Financial Statements"). Certain defined terms used herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Financial Statements.
Rental Property
Costs directly related to the development of rental properties are capitalized. Capitalized development and construction costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development and construction costs, interest, property taxes, insurance, salaries and other project costs incurred during the period of development. Interest capitalized by the Company for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 was $5.5 million and $4.7 million, respectively, and $17.2 million and $12.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
The Company considers a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity (as distinguished from activities such as routine maintenance and cleanup). If portions of a rental project are substantially completed and occupied by tenants, or held available for occupancy, and other portions have not yet reached that stage, the substantially completed portions are accounted for as a separate project. The Company allocates costs incurred between the portions under construction and the portions substantially completed and held available for occupancy.
On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company's real estate properties may be impaired. A property's value is impaired only if management's estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property are less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the fair value of the property. Except for certain assets classified as held for sale, as discussed below, management does not believe that the value of any of the Company's rental properties is impaired.
Rental Property Held for Sale
When assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Company discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the sales price, net of selling costs, of such assets. If, in management's opinion, the net sales price of the assets which have been identified for sale is less than the net book value of the assets, a valuation allowance is established.
If circumstances arise that previously were considered unlikely and, as a result, the Company decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the property is reclassified as held and used. A property that is reclassified is measured and recorded individually at the lower of (a) its carrying amount before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation (amortization) expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used, or (b) the fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell. See Note 6 to the Financial Statements.
Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting as the Company exercises significant influence, but does not control these entities. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as Investments in Unconsolidated Joint
33
Ventures, and subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions. See Note 4 to the Financial Statements.
Deferred Leasing Costs
Costs incurred in connection with leases are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases and included in depreciation and amortization. Unamortized deferred leasing costs are charged to amortization expense upon early termination of the lease. Certain employees of the Company provide leasing services to the Properties and receive compensation based on space leased. The portion of such compensation, which is capitalized and amortized, approximated $0.9 million and $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $2.6 million and $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Derivative Instruments
The Company measures its derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, at fair value and records them as an asset or liability, depending on the Company's rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract. For derivatives designated as fair value hedges, the changes in the fair value of both the derivative instrument and the hedged item are recorded in earnings. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portions of changes in fair value of the derivative are reported in other comprehensive income ("OCI") and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedging and ineffective portions of hedges are recognized in earnings in the affected period. See Note 9 to the Financial Statements—Interest Rate Hedge.
Revenue Recognition
Base rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Unbilled rents receivable represents the amount by which straight-line rental revenue exceeds rents currently billed in accordance with the lease agreements. Parking and other revenue includes income from parking spaces leased to tenants, income from tenants for additional services provided by the Company, income from tenants for early lease terminations and income from managing properties for third parties. Escalations and recoveries are received from tenants for certain costs as provided in the lease agreements. These costs generally include real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable costs. See Note 12 to the Financial Statements.
As a result of the economic climate thus far in 2002, substantially all of the real estate markets the Company operates in have materially softened. Demand for office space has declined significantly and vacancy rates have increased in each of the Company's core markets since the first quarter of 2001. During the third quarter of 2002, the Company's core markets continued to be weak. The percentage leased in the Company's wholly-owned portfolio of stabilized operating properties decreased to 93.0 percent at September 30, 2002, as compared to 93.9 percent at June 30, 2002 and 95.1 percent at September 30, 2001. Percentage leased includes all leases in effect as of the period end date, some of which have commencement dates in the future and leases that expire at the period end date. Market rental rates have declined in most markets from peak levels in late 2000 and early 2001. Rental rates on the Company's space that was re-leased during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 increased an average of 2.4 percent compared to rates that were in effect under expiring leases, as compared to an 11.7 percent increase for the same period in 2001. The Company believes that vacancy rates may continue to increase in most of its markets going into 2003.
34
The Company has a focused strategy geared to attractive opportunities in high-barrier-to-entry markets, primarily predicated on the Company's strong presence in the Northeast region.
Consistent with its strategy, in the fourth quarter 2000, the Company started construction of a 980,000 square-foot office property, known as Plaza 5, at its Harborside Financial Center office complex in Jersey City, Hudson County, New Jersey. The project, which commenced initial operations in September 2002, is currently projected to cost approximately $260 million, of which $187.2 million has been incurred by the Company through September 30, 2002. Plaza 5 was approximately 58 percent leased as of September 30, 2002 (which includes a lease with a tenant for 68,000 square feet, or seven percent of the property, for which the tenant has informed the Company that it is experiencing financial difficulties and has failed to meet certain monetary obligations under the lease, including the payment of rent). Additionally, in the fourth quarter 2000, the Company, through a joint venture, started construction of a 575,000 square-foot office property, known as Plaza 10, on land owned by the joint venture located adjacent to the Company's Harborside complex. The Company holds a 50 percent interest in the joint venture. Among other things, the joint venture agreement provides for a preferred return on the Company's invested capital in the venture in addition to the Company's proportionate share of the venture's profit, as defined in the agreement. Plaza 10 is currently projected to cost the Company approximately $145 million, of which $113.7 million has been incurred by the Company through September 30, 2002. The project, which is 100 percent leased to Charles Schwab & Co. Inc. ("Schwab") for a 15-year term, commenced initial operations in September 2002. The lease agreement with Schwab obligates the venture, among other things, to deliver space to the tenant by required timelines and offers expansion options at the tenant's election. Such options may obligate the venture to construct an additional building or, at the Company's option, to make space available in any of its existing Harborside properties. Should the venture be unable to, or choose not to, provide such expansion space, the venture would be liable to Schwab for its actual damages, in no event to exceed $15 million. The amount of Schwab's actual damages, up to $15 million, has been guaranteed by the Company. The Company anticipates expending an additional approximately $104.1 million for the completion of Plaza 5, Plaza 10 and other projects. The Company expects to finance its funding requirements primarily through drawing on its revolving credit facility.
As of September 30, 2002, the Company continued to identify three office properties, which are all located in Arizona and aggregate 416,967 square feet, as held for sale. The properties carried an aggregate book value of $41.2 million, net of accumulated depreciation of $3.6 million and a valuation allowance of $10.6 million, at September 30, 2002. On October 16, 2002, the Company sold all three of these properties to one buyer for approximately $43.0 million.
On September 30, 2002, the Company determined that its five remaining properties located in Texas were no longer being held for sale. The Company decided that it would continue to own and operate these properties until market conditions in Texas improve and certain leasing uncertainties at the properties are resolved. The reclassified properties had an aggregate book value of $56.3 million, net of accumulated depreciation of $7.1 million and a valuation allowance of $2.0 million, at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell (including catch-up depreciation and amortization expense of $3.4 million for certain properties reflecting expense for the period from the date the properties were originally held for sale through the date they were no longer held for sale, which was recorded at that date).
On June 6, 2002, the Company determined that 20 of its office properties and a land parcel, which are located in Colorado, aggregating 1.6 million square feet, were no longer being held for sale. The Company decided that it would continue to own and operate these properties until market conditions in Colorado improve. The reclassified properties carried an aggregate book value of $175.6 million, net of accumulated depreciation of $15.8 million and a valuation allowance of $27.0 million at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell (including an unrealized loss of $3.0 million and accelerated depreciation and amortization expense of $3.9 million for certain properties reflecting expense for the
35
period from the date the properties were originally held for sale through the date they were no longer held for sale, which was recorded at that date).

Base rents for the Same-Store Properties decreased $0.3 million, or 0.2 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001 due primarily to decreases in space leased at the properties. Escalations and recoveries from tenants for the Same-Store Properties increased $1.7 million, or 12.2 percent, for 2002 over 2001, due primarily to the recovery of an increased amount of total property expenses in 2002. Parking and other income for the Same-Store Properties increased $5.0 million, or 192.0 percent, due primarily to increased lease termination fees in 2002, primarily as a result of the Company receiving $2.9 million in August 2002 from a lease termination agreement with Arthur Andersen LLP.
Real estate taxes on the Same-Store Properties increased $0.2 million, or 1.4 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001, due primarily to property tax rate increases in certain municipalities in 2002, partially offset by lower assessments on certain properties in 2002. Utilities for the Same-Store Properties decreased $0.5 million, or 4.5 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001, due primarily to decreased rates, partially offset by increased usage. Operating services for the Same-Store Properties increased $2.0 million, or 12.1 percent, due primarily to increased insurance and maintenance costs in 2002.
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures increased $0.3 million, or 17.0 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001. This increase is due primarily to increased income from the Company's investment in ARCap of $2.2 million in 2002 over 2001, partially offset by a net loss of $1.5 million from the initial operations of the Harborside South Pier hotel venture in 2002. See Note 4 to the Financial Statements.
Interest income increased $0.1, or 8.3 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001. This increase was due primarily to the effect of net proceeds from property sales being invested in cash and cash equivalents for the period of time prior to which such proceeds were reinvested, partially offset by lower interest rates in 2002.
General and administrative decreased by $3.2 million, or 37.0 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001. This decrease is due primarily to a decrease in bad debt expense of $2.6 million from 2001 to 2002, and decreases in 2002 of $0.5 million in payroll and related expenses and $0.4 million in professional fees, partially offset by an increase in state tax expense in 2002 of $0.4 million.
37
Depreciation and amortization increased by $6.8 million, or 30.1 percent, for 2002 over 2001. Of this increase $6.7 million, or 30.0 percent, is due to the Same-Store Properties, primarily due to catch-up depreciation and amortization on certain of the properties that are no longer held for sale (see Note 6 to the Financial Statements), and $0.5 million, or 2.0 percent, is due to the Acquired Properties, partially offset by a decrease of $0.4 million, or 1.9 percent, due to the Dispositions.
Interest expense decreased $1.3 million, or 4.8 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001. This decrease is due primarily to lower interest rates on variable rate borrowings and a greater amount of capitalized interest as a result of increased development and construction costs in 2002.
Income before realized gains (losses) and unrealized losses on disposition of rental property and minority interest decreased to $42.4 million in 2002 from $43.0 million in 2001. The decrease of $0.6 million is due to the factors discussed above.
Net income increased by $10.2 million, from $24.0 million in 2001 to $34.2 million in 2002. The increase was a result of unrealized loss on disposition of rental property of $11.6 million in 2001 and realized gains on disposition of $0.5 million in 2002. These were partially offset by an increase in minority interest in Operating Partnership of $1.3 million and a decrease in income before realized gains (losses) and unrealized losses on disposition of rental property and minority interest of $0.6 million.

Base rents for the Same-Store Properties increased $2.7 million, or 0.7 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001 due primarily to rental rate increases in 2002, partially offset by decreases in space leased at the properties in 2002. Escalations and recoveries from tenants for the Same-Store Properties increased $1.3 million, or 3.1 percent, for 2002 over 2001, due primarily to the recovery of an increased amount of total property expenses in 2002. Parking and other income for the Same-Store Properties increased $4.0 million, or 50.5 percent, due primarily to increased lease termination fees in 2002, primarily as a result of the Company receiving $2.9 million in August 2002 from a lease termination agreement with Arthur Andersen LLP.
Real estate taxes on the Same-Store Properties increased $1.3 million, or 2.8 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001, due primarily to property tax rate increases in certain municipalities in 2002, partially offset by lower assessments on certain properties in 2002. Utilities for the Same-Store Properties decreased $2.2 million, or 6.5 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001, due primarily to decreased rates in 2002. Operating services for the Same-Store Properties increased $1.2 million, or 2.2 percent, due primarily to increased insurance costs in 2002.
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures increased $2.9 million, or 40.2 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001. This is due primarily to properties developed by joint ventures commencing initial operations in 2001 and 2002, higher occupancy at certain properties and increased income from the Company's investment in ARCap in 2002, partially offset by a net loss of $1.5 million from the initial operations of the Harborside South Pier hotel venture in 2002 and the sale of certain joint venture properties. See Note 4 to the Financial Statements.
Interest income decreased $0.2 million, or 13.8 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001. This decrease was due primarily to lower interest rates in 2002.
General and administrative decreased by $1.5 million, or 6.9 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001. This decrease is due primarily to a decrease in bad debt expense of $2.7 million from 2001 to 2002, and a decrease in 2002 of $0.7 million in payroll and related expense, partially offset by an
39
increase in state tax expense in 2002 of $1.1 million and smaller increases in several other general and administrative categories.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $12.8 million, or 18.8 percent, for 2002 over 2001. Of this increase, $10.5 million, or 15.4 percent, is due to the Same-Store Properties, primarily due to catch-up depreciation and amortization on certain properties that are no longer being held for sale (see Note 6 to the Financial Statements), and $4.1 million, or 6.0 percent, is due to the Acquired Properties, partially offset by a decrease of $1.8 million, or 2.6 percent, due to the Dispositions.
Interest expense decreased $6.3 million, or 7.4 percent, for 2002 as compared to 2001. This decrease is due primarily to lower interest rates on variable rate borrowings and a greater amount of capitalized interest as a result of increased development and construction costs in 2002.
Income before realized gains (losses) and unrealized losses on disposition of rental property and minority interest increased to $134.1 million in 2002 from $133.7 million in 2001. The increase of approximately $0.4 million is due to the factors discussed above.
Net income increased by $11.5 million, from $98.4 million in 2001 to $109.9 million in 2002. The increase was a result of realized gains (losses) and unrealized losses on disposition of $9.7 million in 2001, realized gains on disposition of rental property of $2.7 million in 2002 and an increase in income before realized gains (losses) and unrealized losses on disposition of rental property and minority interest of $0.4 million. These were partially offset by an increase in minority interest in Operating Partnership of $1.3 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Historically, rental revenue has been the principal source of funds to pay operating expenses, debt service and capital expenditures, excluding non-recurring capital expenditures. To the extent that the Company's cash flow from operating activities is insufficient to finance its non-recurring capital expenditures such as property acquisition and development and construction costs and other capital expenditures, the Company expects to finance such activities through borrowings under its revolving credit facility and other debt and equity financings.
The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally through its working capital, net cash provided by operating activities and from its revolving credit facility. The Company frequently examines potential property acquisitions and development projects and, at any given time, one or more of such acquisitions or development projects may be under consideration. Accordingly, the ability to fund property acquisitions and development projects is a major part of the Company's financing requirements. The Company expects to meet its financing requirements through funds generated from operating activities, proceeds from property sales, long-term and short-term borrowings (including draws on the Company's revolving credit facility) and the issuance of additional debt and/or equity securities.
As of September 30, 2002, the Company's total indebtedness of $1.8 billion (weighted average interest rate of 6.96 percent) was comprised of $151.2 million of revolving credit facility borrowings and other variable rate mortgage debt (weighted average rate of 2.55 percent) and fixed rate debt of $1.6 billion (weighted average rate of 7.38 percent).
The Company has three investment grade credit ratings. Standard & Poor's Rating Services ("S&P") and Fitch, Inc. ("Fitch") have each assigned their BBB rating to existing and prospective senior unsecured debt of the Operating Partnership. S&P and Fitch have also assigned their BBB- rating to prospective preferred stock offerings of the Company. Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") has assigned its Baa3 rating to the existing and prospective senior unsecured debt of the Operating Partnership and its Ba1 rating to prospective preferred stock offerings of the Company.
40
On September 27, 2002, the Company obtained an unsecured revolving credit facility with a current borrowing capacity of $600.0 million from a group of 14 lenders as described in Note 8 to the Financial Statements. As of September 30, 2002, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $119.0 million under its unsecured revolving credit facility.
The interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the unsecured facility is currently LIBOR plus 70 basis points. The Company may instead elect an interest rate representing the higher of the lender's prime rate or the Federal Funds rate plus 50 basis points. The unsecured facility also currently requires a 20 basis point facility fee on the current borrowing capacity payable quarterly in arrears.
In the event of a change in the Operating Partnership's unsecured debt rating, the interest and facility fee rates will be adjusted in accordance with the following table:
Operating Partnership's Unsecured Debt Ratings: S&P/Moody's/Fitch(a) | Interest Rate— Applicable Basis Points Above LIBOR | Facility Fee Basis Points | ||
---|---|---|---|---|
No rating or less than BBB-/Baa3/BBB- | 120.0 | 30.0 | ||
BBB-/Baa3/BBB- | 95.0 | 20.0 | ||
BBB/Baa2/BBB (current) | 70.0 | 20.0 | ||
BBB+/Baa1/BBB+ | 65.0 | 15.0 | ||
A-/A3/A- or higher | 60.0 | 15.0 |
- (a)
- If the Operating Partnership has debt ratings from two rating agencies, one of which is Standard & Poor's Rating Services ("S&P") or Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"), the rates per the above table shall be based on the lower of such ratings. If the Operating Partnership has debt ratings from three rating agencies, one of which is S&P or Moody's, the rates per the above table shall be based on the lower of the two highest ratings. If the Operating Partnership has debt ratings from only one agency, it will be considered to have no rating or less than BBB-/Baa3/BBB- per the above table.
The unsecured facility matures in September 2005, with an extension option of one year, which would require a payment of 25 basis points of the then borrowing capacity of the credit line upon exercise. The Company believes that the unsecured facility is sufficient to meet its revolving credit facility needs.
The terms of the unsecured facility include certain restrictions and covenants which limit, among other things, the payment of dividends (as discussed below), the incurrence of additional indebtedness, the incurrence of liens and the disposition of assets, and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to the maximum leverage ratio, the maximum amount of secured indebtedness, the minimum amount of tangible net worth, the minimum amount of debt service coverage, the minimum amount of fixed charge coverage, the maximum amount of unsecured indebtedness, the minimum amount of unencumbered property debt service coverage and certain investment limitations. The dividend restriction referred to above provides that, except to enable the Company to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Code, the Company will not during any four consecutive fiscal quarters make distributions with respect to common stock or other equity interests in an aggregate amount in excess of 90 percent of funds from operations (as defined) for such period, subject to certain other adjustments.
The terms of the Operating Partnership's Senior Unsecured Notes, as defined in Note 7 to the Financial Statements (which totaled approximately $1.1 billion as of September 30, 2002), include certain restrictions and covenants which require compliance with financial ratios relating to the maximum amount of debt leverage, the maximum amount of secured indebtedness, the minimum amount of debt service coverage and the maximum amount of unsecured debt as a percent of unsecured assets.
41
As of September 30, 2002, the Company had 230 unencumbered properties, totaling 20.0 million square feet, representing 77.4 percent of the Company's total portfolio on a square footage basis.
The debt of the Company's unconsolidated joint ventures aggregating $529.4 million are non-recourse to the Company except for (i) customary exceptions pertaining to such matters as intentional misuse of funds, environmental conditions and material misrepresentations and (ii) approximately $11.1 million of debt on the Harborside South Pier joint venture with Hyatt Corporation ("Hyatt"). Additionally, the Company has posted an $8.0 million letter of credit in support of another loan to that joint venture, $4.0 million of which is indemnified by Hyatt. In addition, the Company and Hyatt have guaranteed completion of the hotel project to the joint venture's construction lender. If the joint venture fails to complete the hotel project as required under the construction loan documents and the construction loan proceeds remaining to be advanced together with the capital contributed by the partners to such date are insufficient to complete the hotel project, the Company and/or Hyatt may be required to provide additional funds sufficient to complete the hotel project.

As of September 30, 2002, the Company's total debt had a weighted average term to maturity of approximately 4.1 years. The Company does not intend to reserve funds to retire the Company's Senior Unsecured Notes or its mortgages and loans payable upon maturity. Instead, the Company will seek to refinance such debt at maturity or retire such debt through the issuance of additional equity or debt securities. The Company is reviewing various refinancing options, including the issuance of additional unsecured debt, preferred stock, and/or obtaining additional mortgage debt, some or all of which may be completed during the remainder of 2002 or during 2003. The Company anticipates that its available cash and cash equivalents and cash flows from operating activities, together with cash available from borrowings and other sources, will be adequate to meet the Company's capital and liquidity needs both in the short and long-term. However, if these sources of funds are insufficient or unavailable, the Company's ability to make the expected distributions discussed below may be adversely affected.
The Company has an effective shelf registration statement with the SEC for an aggregate amount of $2.0 billion in equity securities of the Company. The Company and Operating Partnership also have an effective shelf registration statement with the SEC for an aggregate of $2.0 billion in debt securities, preferred stock and preferred stock represented by depositary shares, under which the Operating Partnership has issued an aggregate of $1.1 billion of senior unsecured notes.
On September 13, 2000, the Board of Directors authorized an increase to the Company's repurchase program under which the Company is permitted to purchase up to an additional $150.0 million of the Company's outstanding common stock ("Repurchase Program"). From that date through November 4, 2002, the Company purchased for constructive retirement under the Repurchase Program 3.5 million shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate cost of approximately $96.7 million. As a result, the Company has a remaining authorization to repurchase up to an additional $53.3 million of its outstanding common stock, which it may repurchase from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing prices or through privately negotiated transactions.
42
The Company may not dispose of or distribute certain of its properties, currently comprising 138 properties with an aggregate net book value of approximately $1.8 billion, which were originally contributed by members of either the Mack Group (which includes William L. Mack, Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors; Earle I. Mack, director; and Mitchell E. Hersh, chief executive officer and director), the Robert Martin Group (which includes Robert F. Weinberg, director; Martin S. Berger, a former director; and Timothy M. Jones, president), or the Cali Group (which includes John J. Cali, director and John R. Cali, director) without the express written consent of a representative of the Mack Group, the Robert Martin Group or the Cali Group, as applicable, except in a manner which does not result in recognition of any built-in-gain (which may result in an income tax liability) or which reimburses the appropriate Mack Group, Robert Martin Group or Cali Group members for the tax consequences of the recognition of such built-in-gains (collectively, the "Property Lock-Ups"). The aforementioned restrictions do not apply in the event that the Company sells all of its properties or in connection with a sale transaction which the Company's Board of Directors determines is reasonably necessary to satisfy a material monetary default on any unsecured debt, judgment or liability of the Company or to cure any material monetary default on any mortgage secured by a property. The Property Lock-Ups expire periodically through 2008. Upon the expiration of the Property Lock-Ups, the Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any sale, transfer or other disposition of the subject properties from resulting in the recognition of built-in gain to the appropriate Mack Group, Robert Martin Group or Cali Group members.
To maintain its qualification as a REIT, the Company must make annual distributions to its stockholders of at least 90 percent of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding net capital gains. Moreover, the Company intends to continue to make regular quarterly distributions to its stockholders which, based upon current policy, in the aggregate would equal approximately $145.0 million on an annualized basis. However, any such distribution, whether for federal income tax purposes or otherwise, would only be paid out of available cash after meeting both operating requirements and scheduled debt service on the Company's debt.
The Company considers funds from operations ("FFO"), after adjustment for straight-lining of rents, one measure of REIT performance. FFO is defined as net income (loss) before minority interest of unitholders, computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring, other extraordinary items, and sales of depreciable rental property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of the Company's performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO presented herein is not necessarily comparable to FFO 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 is comparable to the FFO of real estate companies that use the current definition of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), after the adjustment for straight-lining of rents.
43
FFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, as calculated in accordance with NAREIT's definition, after adjustment for straight-lining of rents, is summarized in the following table (in thousands):

The Company's leases with the majority of its tenants provide for recoveries and escalation charges based upon the tenant's proportionate share of, and/or increases in, real estate taxes and certain operating costs, which reduce the Company's exposure to increases in operating costs resulting from inflation.
Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain information discussed in this literature may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the federal securities laws, including Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements relate to, without limitation, the Company's future economic performance, plans and objectives for future operations and projections of revenue and other financial items. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "may," "will," "should," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "continue" or comparable terminology. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions at the time made, it can give no assurance that its expectations will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to certain risks, trends and uncertainties, many of which the Company cannot predict with accuracy and some of which the Company might not even anticipate. Future events and actual results, financial and otherwise, may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Among the risks, trends and uncertainties are changes in the general economic conditions, including those affecting industries in which the Company's principal tenants compete; any failure of the general economy to recover timely from the current economic downturn; the extent of any tenant bankruptcies; the Company's ability to lease or re-lease space at current or anticipated rents; changes in the supply of and demand for office, office/flex and industrial/warehouse properties; changes in interest rate levels; changes in operating costs; the Company's ability to obtain adequate insurance, including coverage for terrorist acts; the availability of financing; and other risks associated with the development and acquisition of properties, including risks that the development may not be completed on schedule, that the tenants will not take occupancy or pay rent, or that development or operating costs may be greater than anticipated. For further information on factors which could impact the Company and the statements contained herein,
45
reference should be made to the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission including Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and Annual Reports on Form 10-K. The Company assumes no obligation to update or supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. In pursuing its business plan, the primary market risk to which the Company is exposed is interest rate risk. Changes in the general level of interest rates prevailing in the financial markets may affect the spread between the Company's yield on invested assets and cost of funds and, in turn, our ability to make distributions or payments to our investors.
Approximately $1.6 billion of the Company's long-term debt bears interest at fixed rates and therefore the fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in market interest rates. The following table presents principal cash flows (in thousands) based upon maturity dates of the debt obligations and the related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates for the fixed rate debt. The interest rate on the variable rate debt as of September 30, 2002 ranged from LIBOR plus 65 basis points to LIBOR plus 70 basis points.

While the Company has not experienced any significant credit losses, in the event of a significant rising interest rate environment and/or economic downturn, defaults could increase and result in losses to the Company which adversely affect its operating results and liquidity.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
- (a)
- Within the 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company's periodic filings with the SEC.
- (b)
- There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the Company's internal controls subsequent to the date the Company carried out this evaluation.

MACK-CALI REALTY CORPORATION
Part II—Other Information
Pursuant to an agreement with the City of Jersey City, New Jersey, the Company is required to make payments in lieu of property taxes ("PILOT") on its Harborside Plaza 2 and 3 properties. The agreement, which commenced in 1990, is for a term of 15 years. Such PILOT is equal to two percent of Total Project Costs, as defined, in year one and increases by $75,000 per annum through year 15. Total Project Costs, as defined, are $145.6 million. The PILOT totaled $945,000 and $941,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $2.8 million and $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The PILOT on these two properties has been challenged as part of a larger effort by several neighboring towns to question past practices of the City of Jersey City in attracting large development. If this challenge is successful, the properties will be placed back on the regular tax roles for tax years beginning with 1998. While the Company cannot at this time determine the likely outcome of this challenge, the effect, if successful, of the challenge on the tax assessments against the properties, or the amount of the increase, if any, in taxes assessed resulting from a successful challenge, the Company does not believe that the outcome will result in a material adverse impact to the Company as there is the potential that the majority of any increase in the expense at the properties may be passed along to the properties' tenants.
Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds
Not Applicable.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
Not Applicable.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
