1.    ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization               Cali Realty  Corporation (the "Company"),  a Maryland
                           corporation,      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 June 30, 1996,  the Company  owned and operated 43
                           properties,  consisting of 42 office and  office/flex
                           buildings  totaling  approximately 4.2 million square
                           feet  and  a  327  unit  residential   complex.   The
                           properties  are located in New Jersey,  New York, and
                           Pennsylvania.

                           The  Company  was  incorporated  on May 24,  1994 and
                           commenced  operations  on August 31, 1994.  On August
                           31, 1994,  the Company  completed  an initial  public
                           offering and effected a business combination with the
                           Cali Group (not a legal  entity).  The Company raised
                           (net of  offering  costs)  approximately  $165,518 of
                           capital   through  an  initial  public   offering  of
                           10,500,000  shares  of  common  stock,  and  used the
                           proceeds to acquire a 78.94 percent  interest in Cali
                           Realty,   L.P.  (the  "Operating   Partnership")  and
                           related  entities,  which are the  successors  to the
                           operations of the Cali Group. Prior to the completion
                           of the business  combination  with the  Company,  the
                           Cali Group was engaged in development,  ownership and
                           operation of a portfolio of twelve  office  buildings
                           and  one  multi-family   residential  property,   all
                           located in New Jersey (the "Initial Properties").

                           In 1994 and 1995,  following  the  Company's  initial
                           public  offering,  the Company acquired 28 office and
                           office/flex properties totaling 1,723,000 square feet
                           for approximately  $157,000.  These  acquisitions are
                           all located in New Jersey and New York.

                           On March  20,  1996,  the  Company  sold  its  office
                           building  located  at 15 Essex Road in  Paramus,  New
                           Jersey  ("Essex  Road") and  concurrently  acquired a
                           95,000  square foot office  building at 103  Carnegie
                           Center  in  Princeton,  New  Jersey.  The  concurrent
                           transactions qualified as a tax free exchange, as the
                           Company used  substantially  all of the proceeds from
                           the  sale of  Essex  Road to  acquire  the  Princeton
                           property. The financial statements for the six months
                           ended June 30, 1996 include a gain of $5,658 relating
                           to this transaction.

                           In  advance of the sale of Essex  Road,  on March 12,
                           1996,  the  Company  prepaid  $5,492 of the  Mortgage
                           Financing  (Note 5) and  obtained  a  release  of the
                           mortgage  liens  on  the  property.   On  account  of
                           prepayment  penalties,  loan origination  fees, legal
                           fees and other costs  incurred in the  retirement  of
                           the  debt,  an  extraordinary  loss of  $475,  net of
                           minority  interest's  share  of the loss  ($86),  was
                           recorded for the six months ended June 30, 1996.

                           On  May 2,  1996,  the  Company  acquired  Rose  Tree
                           Corporate  Center,  a two- building  suburban  office
                           complex totaling  approximately  260,000 square feet,
                           located  in  Media,  Pennsylvania.  The  complex  was
                           acquired for  approximately  $28  million,  which was
                           drawn on one of the Company's credit facilities.

                           Additionally,  on July 23, 1996, the Company acquired
                           222 and 233 Mount  Airy  Road,  two  suburban  office
                           buildings totaling approximately 115,000 square feet,
                           located in Basking Ridge,  New Jersey.  The buildings
                           were acquired for approximately $10.5 million,  which
                           was drawn on one of the Company's credit facilities.
      Basis of
      Presentation         The accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements
                           include all  accounts of the Company and its majority
                           owned subsidiaries  which consist  principally of the
                           Operating  Partnership.  The Company's  investment in
                           Cali  Services,  Inc.  (an  entity  formed to provide
                           third party property  management  services,  in which
                           the Operating  Partnership has a 99 percent interest)
                           is accounted for under the equity method.

                           All    significant    intercompany    accounts    and
                           transactions have been eliminated.

                           The preparation of financial statements in conformity
                           with   generally   accepted   accounting   principles
                           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. Costs include interest, property taxes,
                           insurance and other project costs incurred during the
                           period  of   construction.   Ordinary   repairs   and
                           maintenance   are   expensed   as   incurred;   major
                           replacements  and  betterments  are  capitalized  and
                           depreciated over their estimated useful lives.  Fully
                           depreciated  assets are  removed  from the  accounts.
                           Depreciation  is  computed on a  straight-line  basis
                           over the  estimated  useful  lives of the  assets  as
                           follows:

                           Buildings and improvements             39 to 40 years
                           -----------------------------------------------------
                           Tenant improvements           The shorter of the term
                                                         of the related lease or
                                                         useful lives

                           On a  periodic  basis,  management  assesses  whether
                           there are any  indicators  that the value of the 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.
                           Management  does not believe that the value of any of
                           its real estate properties are impaired.

    Deferred 
    Financing              Costs incurred in obtaining financing are capitalized
    Costs                  and  amortized  on  a  straight-line   basis,   which
                           approximates the effective interest method,  over the
                           term of the  related  indebtedness.  Amortization  of
                           such  costs  were $267 and $435 for the  three  month
                           periods  ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,  respectively,
                           and $527 and $877  for the six  month  periods  ended
                           June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

    Deferred
    Leasing                Costs   incurred  in   connection   with  leases  are
    Costs                  capitalized  and amortized on a  straight-line  basis
                           over the  terms of the  related  leases.  Unamortized
                           deferred  leasing  costs are charged to  amortization
                           expense upon early termination of the lease.

                           leases.  Unbilled  rents  receivable  represents  the
                           amount by which straight-line  rental revenue exceeds
                           rents  currently  billed in accordance with the lease
                           agreements.  Parking  revenue  includes  income  from

                           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

                           three month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 were
                           15,202,912 and 10,400,000 respectively, and six month
                           periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 were  15,174,500
                           and 10,436,464, respectively. The assumed exercise of
                           outstanding  stock options  using the Treasury  Stock

      [a]                  Concurrent   with  the   Company's   initial   public
                           offering,    the    Company's    initial    operating
                           subsidiaries,   which  own  the  Initial  Properties,
                           issued  five-year  mortgage  notes with an  aggregate
                           principal  balance  of  $144,500  secured  and cross-
                           collateralized  by  the  Initial   Properties  to  an
                           affiliate  ("PSI") of Prudential  Securities Inc. PSI
                           then issued  commercial  mortgage  pay-through  bonds
                           ("Bonds") collateralized by the mortgage notes. Bonds
                           with an aggregate  principal  balance of $70,000 were
                           purchased by unrelated  third parties.  Bonds with an
                           aggregate principal balance of $74,500 were purchased
                           by the Company.  As a result,  the Company's  initial
                           mortgage   financing   was  $70,000  (the   "Mortgage
                           Financing").  Approximately $38,000 of the $70,000 is
                           guaranteed   under  certain   conditions  by  certain
                           partners of the partnerships  which owned the Initial
                           Properties.  The Mortgage  Financing requires monthly
                           payments of interest only, with all principal and any
                           accrued  but  unpaid  interest  due in  August  1999.
                           $46,000  of  the  $70,000  Mortgage  Financing  bears
                           interest  at a net  cost to the  Company  equal  to a
                           fixed  rate  of  8.02   percent  per  annum  and  the
                           remaining $24,000 bears interest at a net cost to the
                           Company  equal to a floating rate of 100 basis points
                           over 30-day  London  Inter Bank  Offered Rate (LIBOR)
                           with a lifetime interest rate cap of 11.6 percent.

                           In  advance of the sale of Essex  Road,  on March 12,
                           1996, the Company prepaid $5,492  ($1,687-fixed rate,
                           $3,805-floating rate debt) of the Mortgage Financing,
                           resulting in outstanding  balances of $44,313 for the
                           8.02  percent  fixed  rate debt and  $20,195  for the
                           floating rate debt.

      [b]                  In  connection  with  the  acquisition  of an  office
                           building  in Fair Lawn,  New Jersey on March 3, 1995,
                           the Company assumed an $18,764 non-recourse  mortgage
                           loan ("Fair Lawn Property Loan") bearing  interest at
                           a fixed  rate of 8.25  percent  per  annum.  The loan
                           requires  payment of interest  only through March 15,
                           1996  and   payment   of   principal   and   interest
                           thereafter,  on a 20-year amortization schedule, with
                           the remaining  principal balance due October 1, 2003.
                           For the six months ended June 30,  1996,  the Company
                           has paid $125 for  amortization  of the  principal on
                           the Fair Lawn Property Loan.

      [c]                  The Company has a $70,000  revolving  credit facility
                           ("Initial  Credit  Facility"),  which  may be used to
                           fund  acquisitions  and new development  projects and
                           for  general  working  capital  purposes,   including
                           capital  expenditures  and  tenant  improvements.  In
                           connection with the Mortgage  Financing,  the Company
                           obtained a $6,005  letter of  credit,  secured by the
                           Initial  Credit  Facility,  to  meet  certain  tenant
                           improvement   and   capital    expenditure    reserve
                           requirements.  The Initial Credit Facility  currently
                           bears  interest at a floating rate equal to 150 basis
                           points over LIBOR.  The Initial Credit  Facility is a
                           recourse  liability of the Operating  Partnership and
                           is secured by a pledge of the  $74,500  Bonds held by
                           the Company.  The Initial  Credit  Facility  requires
                           monthly  payments of interest only, with  outstanding
                           advances and any accrued but unpaid  interest due May
                           31,  1997 and is subject  to renewal at the  lender's
                           sole  discretion.  The Initial  Credit  Facility also
                           requires a fee equal to one quarter of one percent of
                           the unused  balance  payable  quarterly  in  arrears.
                           Since  June  30,  1996,  the  Company  has  drawn  an
                           additional $16,400 on the Initial Credit Facility.

      [d]                  On  February  1,  1996,   the  Company   obtained  an
                           additional  credit facility (the  "Additional  Credit
                           Facility")  secured by certain of its  properties  in
                           the amount of $75,000 from two  participating  banks.
                           The Additional Credit Facility has a three- year term
                           and bears  interest  at 150 basis  points over 30-day
                           LIBOR.  The terms of the Additional  Credit  Facility
                           include  certain  restrictions  and  covenants  which
                           limit,  among other  things,  dividend  payments  and
                           additional  indebtedness and which require compliance
                           with specified  financial  ratios and other financial
                           measurements.  The  Additional  Credit  Facility also
                           requires a fee equal to one quarter of one percent of
                           the unused  balance  payable  quarterly  in  arrears.
                           Since June 30, 1996, the Company has repaid $2,000 on
                           the Additional Credit Facility.

      Interest Rate Swap Agreements:

      On May 24, 1995, the Company  entered into an interest rate swap agreement
      with a commercial  bank. The swap agreement fixes the Company's  one-month
      LIBOR base to a fixed  6.285  percent  per annum on a  notional  amount of
      $24,000 through August 1999.

      On January 23,  1996,  the  Company  entered  into an  interest  rate swap
      agreement with one of the  participating  banks in its  Additional  Credit
      Facility.  The swap agreement has a three-year  term and a notional amount
      of $26,000 which fixes the Company's one-month LIBOR base to 5.265 percent
      (with a 150 basis point spread,  an interest rate of 6.765 percent) on its
      floating rate credit facilities.

      The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of  non-performance  by
      the other  parties to the  interest  rate swap  agreements.  However,  the
      Company does not anticipate non-performance by either counterparty.

6.    MINORITY INTEREST

      In conjunction  with the Company's  initial public  offering,  individuals
      contributing interests to the Operating Partnership had the right to elect
      either to receive common stock of the Company or Units. A Unit and a share
      of  common  stock of the  Company  have  substantially  the same  economic
      characteristics  in as much as they  effectively  share equally in the net
      income or loss of the  Operating  Partnership.  Minority  interest  in the
      accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements relates to Units held by
      parties other than the Company.

      Beginning one year after the closing of the Company's initial public stock
      offering (which occurred on August 31, 1994), certain Units are able to be
      redeemed by the  unitholders  at their option on the basis of one Unit for
      either one share of common stock or cash equal to the fair market value of
      a share at the time of the  redemption.  The  Company  has the  option  to
      deliver  shares of common  stock in exchange for all or any portion of the
      cash requested.  When a unitholder  redeems a Unit,  minority  interest is
      reduced and the  Company's  investment  in the  Operating  Partnership  is
      increased.  During the six months ended June 30,  1996,  91,614 Units were
      redeemed for common stock of the Company.

 7.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

      Certain employees of the Operating Partnership provide leasing services to
      the  Properties  and receive  fees as  compensation  ranging from 0.667 to
      2.667 percent of adjusted rents. For the three and six month periods ended
      June  30,  1996,   such  fees,   which  are   capitalized  and  amortized,
      approximated $112 and $192, respectively.


 8.   SIGNIFICANT TENANT

      At  December  31,  1995,   Donaldson,   Lufkin,  and  Jenrette  Securities
      Corporation  ("DLJ") leased  approximately  55 percent of the space in the
      Company's 95 Christopher Columbus Drive, Jersey City, New Jersey property.
      On April 9, 1996,  DLJ signed a lease with the Company  for an  additional
      73,200 square feet of space ("DLJ Expansion"), increasing its occupancy to
      approximately 66 percent of the property.

      Total rental income from DLJ,  including  escalations and recoveries,  for
      the three  and six  month  periods  ending June 30,  1996 and 1995 were as
      follows:

      At June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, unbilled rents receivable included
      $12,521 and $12,164, respectively, from DLJ.

 9.   STOCK OPTION PLAN

      In 1994, and as amended on May 13, 1996, the Company  established the Cali
      Employee Stock Option Plan  ("Employee  Plan") and the Cali Director Stock
      Option Plan ("Directors  Plan"), under which a total of 1,880,188 (subject
      to adjustment) of the Company's  shares of common stock have been reserved
      for issuance  (1,780,188  shares under the Employee Plan and 100,000 under
      the Directors  Plan).  Options  granted under the Employee Plan  generally
      become  exercisable over a three to five year period,  while options under
      the  Directors  Plan become  exercisable  in one year.  All  options  were
      granted  at not less than fair  market  value at dates of grant and have a
      term of ten years.

      Information  regarding  the  Company's  stock option  plans is  summarized
      below:

10.   EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

      All  employees of the Company who meet  certain  minimum age and period of
      service  requirements are eligible to participate in a Section 401(k) plan
      (the  "Plan") as defined by the  Internal  Revenue  Code.  The Plan allows
      eligible employees to defer up to 15 percent of their annual compensation.
      The  amounts   contributed  by  employees  are   immediately   vested  and
      non-forfeitable.  The  Company,  at  management's  discretion,  may  match
      employee contributions. No employer contributions have been made to date.

11.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

      Pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage  Financing,  the Company is required
      to escrow $143 per month for tenant  improvements and leasing  commissions
      and $53 per month for capital improvements.

      Pursuant to an agreement with the City of Jersey City, New Jersey expiring
      in 2009,  the  Company is  required  to make  payments in lieu of property
      taxes  ("PILOT") on its property in Jersey City.  Such PILOT is determined
      based on the greater of 2 percent of the  property  cost,  as defined,  or
      $1,131  per  annum,  through  1999 and 2.5  percent,  or $1,414 per annum,
      through 2004.

12.   TENANT LEASES

      The Properties are leased to tenants under  operating  leases with various
      expiration dates through 2011. 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  (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  provides for, among other things,  certain  restrictions on
      the transfer of the 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 will demand 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.

      On March 7,  1995,  the  Board of  Directors  authorized  the  Company  to
      purchase up to 100,000 shares of its outstanding  common stock so that the
      total  number  of  shares  and  Units  may  be  reduced  to  approximately
      13,300,000.  On March 8, 1995,  the Company  purchased,  for  constructive
      retirement, 100,000 shares of its outstanding common stock for $1,595. The
      excess of the purchase price over par value was recorded as a reduction to
      additional  paid-in  capital.  Concurrent with this purchase,  the Company
      sold to the Operating Partnership 100,000 Units for $1,595.

      On November 6, 1995,  the Company  completed a second  public  offering of
      4,000,000  shares of its common  stock at $19.50  per share  (the  "Second
      Offering").  Net proceeds to the Company after the underwriting  discounts
      and other offering costs were  approximately  $72,512 which was used along
      with  funds  drawn on the  Initial  Credit  Facility  to  acquire  certain
      properties.   Additionally,   on  November  17,   1995,   pursuant  to  an
      over-allotment  option granted to the underwriters of the Second Offering,
      the Company  issued an  additional  600,000  shares of its common stock at
      $19.50 per share. Net proceeds to the Company after underwriting discounts
      totaled approximately  $11,082, which was used to repay an equal amount of
      indebtedness  on the Initial Credit  Facility.  The $89.7 million in total
      proceeds from the Second Offering and over-allotment  option were obtained
      off of the  Company's  $250 million  shelf  registration,  leaving  $160.3
      million of available funds under the shelf.

      On May 13, 1996,  the Company's  stockholders  approved an increase in the
      authorized  shares of  common  stock in the  Company  from  25,000,000  to
      95,000,000.

      On July 29,  1996,  the Company  filed an  additional  shelf  registration
      statement  with the  Securities  and Exchanges  Commission  ("SEC") for an
      aggregate  amount  of $500  million  in  securities  of the  Company.  The
      registration  statement  was  declared  effective  by the SEC on August 2,
      1996.

                    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 Cali Realty Corporation and the notes
      thereto.

      The following  comparisons  for the three and six month periods ended June
      30, 1996  ("1996"),  as compared to the three and six month  periods ended
      June 30, 1995 ("1995") make reference to the following:  (i) the effect of
      the "Pre-Acquisition Properties," which represents all properties owned by
      the Company at March 31, 1995 (for the three-month  periods  comparisons),
      and which  represents all properties  owned by the Company at December 31,
      1994  (for the  six-month  periods  comparisons),  (ii) the  effect of the
      "Acquired  Properties,"  which  represents all properties  acquired by the
      Company since April 1, 1995 (for the three-month periods comparisons), and
      which  represents all  properties  acquired since January 1, 1995 (for the
      six-month period comparisons),  and (iii) the effect of the "Disposition,"
      which  refers to the  Company's  sale of Essex Road on March 20, 1996 (for
      both the three and six month periods comparisons).

      Three Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared to
      Three Months Ended June 30, 1995

      Total  revenues  increased  $5.9 million,  or 38.7 percent,  for the three
      months ended June 30, 1996 over 1995.  Base rents  increased $5.1 million,
      or 41.5 percent, of which $5.3 million, or 43.8 percent,  was attributable
      to the Acquired  Properties,  $0.1 million,  or 0.8 percent,  to occupancy
      changes at the Pre- Acquisition  Properties,  offset by a decrease of $0.4
      million, or 3.1 percent,  as a result of the Disposition.  Escalations and
      recoveries increased $0.7 million, or 30.5 percent, of which $0.8 million,
      or 34.4 percent, was attributable to the Acquired Properties,  offset by a
      decrease  of $0.1  million,  or 2.9  percent,  due to the  Pre-Acquisition
      Properties.

      Total  expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1996  increased  $3.2
      million,  or 28.5  percent,  as compared to the same period in 1995.  Real
      estate taxes increased $0.8 million,  or 52.7 percent,  for 1996 over 1995
      substantially  attributable  to  the  Acquired  Properties.  Additionally,
      operating services increased $0.6 million, or 28.0 percent,  and utilities
      increased $0.4 million,  or 27.2 percent for 1996 over 1995. The aggregate
      increase in operating  services and  utilities  of $1.0  million,  or 27.7
      percent,  consists of $1.1 million,  or 31.6 percent,  attributable to the
      Acquired Properties, offset by a decrease of $0.1 million, or 4.6 percent,
      as a  result  of the  Disposition.  General  and  administrative  expenses
      increased $0.1 million,  or 12.7 percent,  primarily due to the additional
      costs   associated  with  the  Acquired   Properties.   Depreciation   and
      amortization  increased $0.5 million, or 16.8 percent, for 1996 over 1995,
      of which $0.9 million,  or 29.2 percent,  relates to  depreciation  on the
      Acquired Properties,  offset by decreases of $0.1 million, or 3.1 percent,
      for  depreciation  and $0.2 million,  or 6.2 percent,  for amortization of
      deferred  financing  costs due to a reduction in debt  outstanding  on the
      Pre-Acquisition  Properties,  and  $0.1  million,  or  3.0  percent,  of a
      reduction in depreciation as a result of the Disposition. Interest expense
      increased by $0.8 million,  or 38.0 percent,  primarily due to an increase
      in indebtedness resulting from drawings on the Company's credit facilities
      in connection with property acquisitions.

      Income before minority interest and  extraordinary  item increased to $6.7
      million in 1996 from $4.0  million in 1995.  The  increase of $2.7 million
      was due to the factors discussed above.

      Net income increased $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 1996
      from $3.2  million (net of minority  interest of $0.9  million) in 1995 to
      $5.7  million  (net of minority  interest of $1.0  million) in 1996,  as a
      result  of  the   increase  in  income   before   minority   interest  and
      extraordinary item of $2.7 million.


      Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 to Six Months Ended June 30, 1995

      Total  revenues  increased  $11.6  million,  or 39.8 percent,  for the six
      months ended June 30, 1996 over 1995.  Base rents  increased $9.8 million,
      or 42.0 percent, of which $10.5 million, or 44.8 percent, was attributable
      to the Acquired  Properties,  offset by decreases of $0.1 million,  or 0.3
      percent,   as  a  result  of  occupancy  changes  at  the  Pre-Acquisition
      Properties  and  $0.6  million,  or  2.5  percent,  as  a  result  of  the
      Disposition.  Escalations and recoveries  increased $1.7 million,  or 37.4
      percent, of which $1.8 million,  or 39.1 percent,  was attributable to the
      Acquired Properties, offset by a decrease of $0.1 million, or 1.1 percent,
      as a result of the combined  effect of both the  Disposition and occupancy
      changes at the Pre-Acquisition Properties.

      Total  expenses  for the six months  ended June 30,  1996  increased  $6.7
      million,  or 31.7  percent,  as compared to the same period in 1995.  Real
      estate taxes increased $1.4 million,  or 51.0 percent,  for 1996 over 1995
      of which $1.5 million,  or 53.5  percent,  was as a result of the Acquired
      Properties,  offset by a decrease $0.1 million, or 2.4 percent, due to the
      Disposition.  Additionally,  operating services increased $1.5 million, or
      39.0 percent,  and utilities increased $0.9 million, or 32.4 percent.  The
      aggregate increase in operating services and utilities of $2.4 million, or
      36.2 percent,  consists of $2.3 million, or 34.7 percent,  attributable to
      the  Acquired  Properties,  $0.2  million,  or 3.2  percent,  at the  Pre-
      Acquisition  Properties  which was due  primarily  to a harsher  winter in
      1996, offset by a decrease of $0.1 million, or 1.3 percent, as a result of
      the  Disposition.  General  and  administrative  expenses  increased  $0.1
      million, or 6.7 percent,  primarily due to the additional costs associated
      with the Acquired Properties. Depreciation and amortization increased $1.0
      million,  or 16.6 percent,  for 1996 over 1995, of which $1.7 million,  or
      28.7 percent,  related to depreciation on the Acquired Properties,  offset
      by decreases of $0.2 million,  or 3.5 percent,  for  depreciation and $0.4
      million,  or  7.1  percent,  for  amortization  of  deferred  leasing  and
      financing  costs  due  to a  reduction  of  debt  on  the  Pre-Acquisition
      Properties,  and $0.1  million  as a result of the  Disposition.  Interest
      expense  increased by $1.8 million,  or 46.0 percent,  primarily due to an
      increase in indebtedness  resulting from drawings on the Company's  credit
      facilities in connection with property acquisitions.

      Income before minority interest and extraordinary  item increased to $18.5
      million in 1996 from $7.9 million in 1995.  The increase of $10.5  million
      was due to the gain on sale of rental  property (the  Disposition) of $5.7
      million in 1996, as well as due to the factors discussed above.

      Net income  increased  $9.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996
      from $6.2  million (net of minority  interest of $1.7  million) in 1995 to
      $15.2  million (net of minority  interest of $2.8  million) in 1996,  as a
      result of an increase in income before minority interest and extraordinary
      item of $10.5 million,  partially  offset by the recognition in 1996 of an
      extraordinary  loss for the early  retirement of debt of $0.5 million (net
      of minority interest's share of $0.1 million).


      Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Statement of Cash Flows

      During the six months ended June 30,  1996,  the Company  generated  $19.2
      million in cash flow from operating  activities,  and, together with $10.3
      million of proceeds from the sale of a rental  property,  $39.2 million in
      net borrowings on its credit  facilities and $0.2 million of proceeds from
      stock options  exercised,  used an aggregate $68.9 million to (i) purchase
      two rental properties for $38.5 million,  (ii) acquire tenant improvements
      and building  improvements  for $7.8 million  (includes  $2.9 million from
      tenant  improvements  costs in connection  with the DLJ Expansion and $1.8
      million in tenant  improvement  costs in  connection  with the  leasing of
      62,275 square feet to Berlitz International at the Company's 400 Alexander
      Park,  Princeton,  New  Jersey  office  property),   (iii)  pay  quarterly
      dividends and distributions of $15.2 million, (iv) prepay a portion of its
      mortgage notes in the amount of $5.5 million, (v) increase the escrow cash
      balances relating to the Mortgage Financing by $0.6 million, (vi) pay debt
      prepayment  penalties and other  related costs of $0.3 million,  (vii) pay
      the  amortization  on  mortgage  principal  of $0.1  million,  and  (viii)
      increase its cash and cash equivalents balance by $0.9 million.

      Capitalization

      On November 6, 1995,  the Company  completed a second  public  offering of
      4,000,000  shares of its common  stock at $19.50  per share  (the  "Second
      Offering").  Net proceeds to the Company after the underwriting  discounts
      and other offering costs were  approximately  $72,512 which was used along
      with  funds  drawn on the  Initial  Credit  Facility  to  acquire  certain
      properties,  as fully  described in the  Company's  Form 10-K for the year
      ended December 31, 1995.  Additionally,  on November 17, 1995, pursuant to
      an  over-allotment  option  granted  to the  underwriters  of  the  Second
      Offering,  the Company  issued an additional  600,000 shares of its common
      stock at $19.50 per share. Net proceeds to the Company after  underwriting
      discounts totaled approximately  $11,082, which was used to repay an equal
      amount of indebtedness on the Initial Credit  Facility.  The $89.7 million
      in total proceeds from the Second Offering and over-allotment  option were
      obtained off of the  Company's  $250 million shelf  registration,  leaving
      $160.3 million of available funds under the shelf.

      On February 1, 1996, the Company obtained from two participating banks the
      $75 million  Additional  Credit Facility.  The Additional  Credit Facility
      bears  interest at a floating  rate equal to 150 basis  points over LIBOR.
      The  Additional  Credit  Facility  is also  subject to  certain  financial
      covenants,  including  the  ratio  of  earnings  before  interest,  taxes,
      depreciation  and  amortization  to debt  service,  minimum  net worth and
      debt-to-market capitalization. In addition, the Additional Credit Facility
      restricts  distributions  by the Company in excess of 100 percent of Funds
      from Operations for three successive  quarters,  provided that the Company
      retains the right to make  distributions  necessary to maintain its status
      as a REIT.  The  Additional  Credit  Facility  is  secured by a first lien
      mortgage  on  certain  of  the  Company's  properties.  Additional  Credit
      Facility  borrowings  are  recourse  to  the  Operating   Partnership  and
      guaranteed by the Company.

      On May 24, 1995, the Company  entered into an interest rate swap agreement
      with a commercial  bank. The swap agreement fixes the Company's  one-month
      LIBOR base to a fixed  6.285  percent  per annum on a  notional  amount of
      $24,000 through August 1999.

      In  addition,  on January  23,  1996,  the Company  entered  into a second
      interest rate swap  agreement with one of the  participating  banks in its
      Additional Credit Facility.  This swap agreement has a three-year term and
      a notional  amount of $26,000  which fixes the Company's  one-month  LIBOR
      base at 5.265 percent on its floating rate credit facilities.

      On March 20,  1996,  the Company  sold its office  building  located at 15
      Essex Road in Paramus, New Jersey ("Essex Road") and concurrently acquired
      a 95,000 square foot office  building at 103 Carnegie Center in Princeton,
      New Jersey. The concurrent  transactions qualified as a tax free exchange,
      as the Company used  substantially  all of the  proceeds  from the sale of
      Essex Road to acquire the Princeton property. The financial statements for
      the six months  ended June 30, 1996  include a gain of $5,658  relating to
      this transaction.

      On May 2,  1996,  the  Company  acquired  Rose Tree  Corporate  Center,  a
      two-building suburban office complex totaling approximately 260,000 square
      feet,  located  in Media,  Pennsylvania.  The  complex  was  acquired  for
      approximately $28 million, which was drawn on the Initial Credit Facility.

      Additionally,  on July 23,  1996,  the Company  acquired 222 and 233 Mount
      Airy Road, two suburban office buildings  totaling  approximately  115,000
      square feet  located in Basking  Ridge,  New Jersey.  The  buildings  were
      acquired for  approximately  $10.5 million,  which was drawn on one of the
      Company's credit facilities.

      On July 29,  1996,  the Company  filed an  additional  shelf  registration
      statement  with the  Securities  and Exchanges  Commission  ("SEC") for an
      aggregate  amount  of $500  million  in  securities  of the  Company.  The
      registration  statement  was  declared  effective  by the SEC on August 2,
      1996.

      Historically, rental revenue has been the principal source of funds to pay
      operating  expenses,  debt  service  and capital  expenditures,  excluding
      non-recurring capital  expenditures.  Management believes that the Company
      will have access to the capital resources  necessary to expand and develop
      its business.  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  costs  and  other  capital
      expenditures,  the Company expects to finance such activities  through the
      credit facilities and other debt and equity financing.

      The Company  presently has no plans for major capital  improvements to the
      existing properties, other than normal recurring expenditures. The Company
      is  currently   constructing   two   office/flex   buildings   aggregating
      approximately  47,000  square feet of space at its  Commercenter  complex,
      located in Totowa,  New  Jersey.  As of June 30,  1996,  the  Company  has
      incurred $0.6 million of costs out of a total of $3.1 million  anticipated
      to be incurred in connection with the construction project.

      The  Company  expects  to  meet  its  short-term  liquidity   requirements
      generally  through its working  capital and net cash provided by operating
      activities  along with the Initial Credit  Facility and Additional  Credit
      Facility.   The  Company  is  frequently   examining   potential  property
      acquisitions  and, at any one given time, one or more of such acquisitions
      may be  under  consideration.  Accordingly,  being  able to fund  property
      acquisitions is a major part of the Company's financing requirements.  The
      Company expects to meet its financing requirements through funds generated
      from operations,  long-term or short-term  borrowings  (including draws on
      the Company's  credit  facilities)  and the issuance of debt securities or
      additional equity securities.

      The  Company  does not  intend to  reserve  funds to retire  the  existing
      Mortgage  Financing,  indebtedness  under the credit  facilities  or other
      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 securities. 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.

      To maintain  its  qualification  as a real estate  investment  trust,  the
      Company must make annual  distributions to its stockholders of at least 95
      percent of its REIT taxable income, excluding the dividends paid deduction
      and net  capital  gains.  Moreover,  the Company  intends to make  regular
      quarterly  distributions  to its  stockholders  which,  based upon current
      policy,  in the aggregate  would equal  approximately  $25.9 million on an
      annual 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
      mortgages  and loans  payable  and  required  annual  capital  expenditure
      reserves pursuant to its mortgage indenture.

      Funds from Operations

      The Company  considers  Funds from  Operations  after  adjustment  for the
      straight-lining  of rents one  measure  of REIT  performance.  Funds  from
      Operations  is defined as net income (loss)  before  minority  interest of
      unitholders,  computed in accordance  with Generally  Accepted  Accounting
      Principles,  excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales
      of property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. Funds
      from  Operations  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.

      Funds from  Operations  for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
      1996 and 1995, as calculated in accordance  with the National  Association
      of Real Estate Investment  Trusts definition  published in March 1995, are
      summarized in the following table (in thousands):

      Inflation

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