                            Part I - Financial Information


Item I:       Financial Statements

              The accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets,
              statements of operations, of stockholders' equity, and of
              cash flows and related notes, have been prepared in
              accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
              ("GAAP") for interim financial information  and in
              conjunction with the rules and regulations of the
              Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").  Accordingly,
              they do not include all of the disclosures required by
              GAAP for complete financial statements.  The financial
              statements reflect all adjustments consisting only of
              normal, recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion
              of management, necessary for a fair presentation for the
              interim periods.

              The aforementioned financial statements should be read in
              conjunction with the notes to the aforementioned
              financial statements and Management's Discussion and
              Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
              and the financial statements and notes thereto included
              in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
              fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.

              The results of operations for the three and nine month
              periods ended September 30, 1997 are not necessarily
              indicative of the results to be expected for the entire
              fiscal year or any other period.

CALI REALTY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.  ORGANIZATION, ACQUISITIONS/TRANSACTIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization
Cali Realty Corporation and subsidiaries (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 September 30, 1997, the Company owned and
operated 132 properties (the "Properties") aggregating 12.2 million
square feet, consisting of 120 office and office/flex buildings totaling
approximately 11.8 million square feet, six industrial/warehouse
buildings totaling approximately  400,000  square feet,  two
multi-family residential complexes consisting of 453 units, two
stand-alone retail properties and two land leases.  The Properties are
located in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Connecticut.

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 ("IPO") and effected a business combination with the
Cali Group (not a legal entity).  The Company raised its initial capital
through the IPO issuing 10,500,000 shares of common stock, and used the
proceeds to acquire a majority interest in Cali Realty, L.P. (the
"Operating Partnership") and related entities, which are the successors
to the operations of the Cali Group. 

Acquisitions/Transactions
From 1994 through 1996, following the Company's IPO, the Company acquired 44 
office and office/flex properties totaling 4.9 million square feet for 
approximately $610,000. The acquired properties are all located in New 
Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania.

On January 28, 1997, the Company acquired 1345 Campus Parkway ("1345 
Campus"), a 76,300 square foot office/flex property, located in Wall 
Township, Monmouth County, New Jersey, for approximately $6,800 in cash, made 
available from the Company's cash reserves.  The property is located in the 
same office park in which the Company previously acquired two office 
properties and four office/flex properties in November 1995.

On January 31, 1997, the Company acquired 65 properties  ("RM Properties") of 
Robert Martin Company, LLC and affiliates ("RM") for a total cost of 
approximately $450,000.  The cost of the transaction (the "RM Transaction") 
was financed through the assumption of $185,283 of mortgage indebtedness 
("TIAA Mortgage"), approximately $220,000 in cash, substantially all of which 
was obtained from the Company's cash reserves, and the issuance of 1,401,225 
Units in the Operating Partnership.

The RM Properties consist primarily of 54 office and office/flex properties 
aggregating approximately 3.7 million square feet and six 
industrial/warehouse properties aggregating approximately 400,000 square 
feet.  The RM Properties are located primarily in established business parks 
in Westchester County, New York and Fairfield County, Connecticut. The 
Company has agreed not to sell certain of the RM Properties for a period of 
seven years without the consent of the RM principals, except for sales made 
under certain circumstances and/or conditions.

In connection with the RM Transaction, the Company was granted a three-year 
option to acquire a 115,000 square foot office property and an 84,000 square 
foot office/flex property (the "Option Properties") for an aggregate minimum 
price of $19,000 and has granted RM the right to put such properties to the 
Company between a range of an aggregate purchase price of $11,600 to $21,300, 
under certain conditions.  The purchase prices, under the agreement, are 
subject to adjustment based on different formulas and are payable in cash or 
Units.

                                       8


In connection with the RM Transaction, the Company provided an $11,600 mortgage
loan ("Mortgage Note Receivable") secured by the Option Properties (see Note 5).

As part of the RM Transaction, Brad W. Berger, formerly President and Chief 
Executive Officer of RM, and Timothy M. Jones, formerly Chief Operating 
Officer of RM, joined the Company as Executive Vice Presidents under 
three-year employment agreements.  The agreements provided, among other 
things, that both Berger and Jones be issued  warrants to purchase 170,000 
shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $33 per share, which vest 
equally over a three-year period and expire on January 31, 2007. 

On May 8, 1997, the Company acquired four buildings in the Westlakes Office 
Park ("Westlakes"), a suburban office complex located in Berwyn, Chester County,
Pennsylvania, totaling approximately 444,000 square feet. The properties were 
acquired for approximately $74,700, which was made available primarily from 
drawing on one of the Company's credit facilities.

On July 21, 1997, the Company acquired two vacant office buildings in the 
Moorestown Corporate Center, a suburban office complex located in Moorestown, 
Burlington County, New Jersey.  The properties, each consisting of 74,000 square
feet, were acquired for approximately $10,200, which was made available from 
drawing on one of the Company's credit facilities.

On August 1, 1997, the Company acquired 1000 Bridgeport Avenue ("Shelton
Place"), a 133,000 square-foot office building located in Shelton, Fairfield 
County, Connecticut.  The property was acquired for approximately $15,787, 
which was made available from drawing on one of the Company's credit facilities.

On August 15, 1997, the Company acquired one of the Option Properties, 200 
Corporate Boulevard South  ("200 Corporate"), an 84,000 square-foot 
office/flex building located in Yonkers, Westchester County, New York. The 
property was acquired for approximately $8,078 through the exercise of a 
purchase option obtained in connection with the RM Transaction. The 
acquisition cost, net of the mortgage prepayment described below, was 
financed from the Company's cash reserves.

In conjunction with the acquisition of 200 Corporate, the sellers of the
property, certain RM principals, prepaid $4,350 of the $11,600 Mortgage
Note Receivable between the Company and such RM principals (See Note 5).

On September 3, 1997, the Company acquired Three Independence Way ("Three
Independence"), a 111,300 square foot suburban office property located in South
Brunswick, Middlesex County, New Jersey, for approximately $13,400.  The funds 
were made available from drawing on one of the Company's credit facilities.

As of October 31, 1997, the Company's portfolio consists of 132 properties 
aggregating approximately 12.2 million square feet, consisting  primarily of 
office, office/flex and industrial/warehouse buildings, located in New 
Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Connecticut.

On September 18, 1997, the Company entered into a Contribution and Exchange 
Agreement (the "Agreement") with certain contributing partnerships and other 
entities affiliated with The Mack Company and Patriot American Office Group 
(collectively, "The Mack Group").  The Agreement, as amended, provides for, 
among other things, the Company to acquire 54 office properties, aggregating 
approximately 9.2 million square feet, (the "Mack Properties") for a total 
cost of approximately $1,200,000. According to terms of the Agreement, the 
cost of the transaction (the "Mack Transaction") will be financed through: 
(i) the assumption of an aggregate of $299,737 in mortgage financing 
(the "Mack Assumed Debt"); (ii) approximately $469,000 in cash, (using excess 
proceeds from its October 1997 common stock offering, see Note 11, as well as 
drawing on the Company's revolving credit facilities); (iii) the issuance of 
3,972,318 common units ("Common Units") in the Operating Partnership; (iv) 
the issuance of 250,256 preferred units ("Preferred Units") in the Operating 
Partnership convertible into Common Units; and (v) the issuance of two 
million warrants ("Warrants") to purchase Common Units. A portion of the 
Common Units may be contingent, non-participating, Common Units, (the 
"Contingent Units"), which will convert, in whole or in part, into ordinary 
Common Units upon the satisfaction within two years from the consummation 
of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement of certain conditions 
relating to the Mack Properties. Until such conversion, such Contingent Units 
shall not be entitled to any economic, voting or other rights associated with 
the participating Common Units.

                                       9


Following completion of the Mack Transaction, the Company's portfolio will 
consist of 186 properties, primarily office and office/flex buildings, 
aggregating approximately 21.5 million square feet, located in ten states.

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Cali Realty Corporation name will be changed, 
subject to shareholder approval, to Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, and the 
name of the Operating Partnership will be changed from Cali Realty, L.P. to 
Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.  If shareholder approval is not obtained, the Company 
will operate under its new name pursuant to a fictitious name certificate, 
and continue to obtain shareholder approval in the future.

With the completion of the Transaction, the composition of the Company's 
13-member Board of Directors will also change.  The Mack Group will be 
permitted to name three designees to the Board, who will be: William Mack, 
currently Senior Managing Partner of the Mack Company, Mitchell Hersh, 
currently Partner and Chief Operating Officer of the Mack Company, and Earle 
Mack, all of whom will be considered "inside" members of the Board because of 
their relationship with the Company's management.  The other inside members 
of the Board will be John J. Cali, who will remain as Chairman of the Board, 
Thomas A. Rizk, and Robert Weinberg.  The remaining seven independent 
directors will include three current independent Board members: Brendan 
Byrne, Irvin Reid and Alan Philibosian; with four new independent members to 
be selected by Mack and reasonably approved by the Company. It is anticipated 
that these four new independent members will be Paul A. Nussbaum, Vincent 
Tese, Jeffrey B. Lane and Martin D. Gruss.

In accordance with the Agreement, Thomas A. Rizk will remain Chief Executive 
Officer and will resign as President of the Company, with Mitchell Hersh 
being appointed President and Chief Operating Officer. The Company's other 
existing officers will retain their current positions and responsibilities, 
except that Brant Cali will resign as Chief Operating Officer and John R. 
Cali will resign as Chief Administrative Officer.  Brant Cali and John R. 
Cali will remain as officers of the Company as Executive Vice Presidents.

Additionally, the Agreement calls for the Company to enter into 
non-competition agreements with each of William, Earle, David and Frederic 
Mack, which will restrict the business dealings of such individuals relative 
to their involvement in commercial real estate activities to those specified 
in the Agreement.  The agreements are to have a term of the later of (a) 
three years from the completion of the Mack Transaction, or (b) the 
occurrence of specified circumstances including, but not limited to, the 
removal of William, Earle, David or Frederic Mack, respectively, from the 
Company's Board of Directors and a decrease in certain ownership levels.

On or before December 12, 1997, the Company may terminate the Agreement for 
any reason.  During the period beginning October 28, 1997 through December 
12, 1997, the Mack Group may terminate the Agreement under certain situations 
and conditions relative to material adverse changes in the activities and 
stock price of the Company during that period.

The completion of the Mack Transaction is subject to certain conditions, 
including approval by the Company's stockholders.  There can be no assurance 
that the Mack Transaction will be consummated or that the Agreement will not 
be modified or amended.  Subject to the foregoing, the Company expects the 
Mack Transaction to be completed in or about December 1997.

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. All significant intercompany accounts and 
transactions have been eliminated. 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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.  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       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 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.

Cash and Cash
Equivalents   All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
              months or less when purchased are considered to be cash
              equivalents.  At December 31, 1996, cash and cash
              equivalents included investments in overnight reverse
              repurchase agreements ("Overnight Investments") totaling
              $201,269.  Investments in Overnight Investments are
              subject to the risks that the counter-party will default
              and the collateral will decline in market value.  The
              Overnight Investments held by the Company at December 31,
              1996 matured on January 2, 1997.  The entire balance,
              including interest income earned, was realized by the
              Company and ultimately used in the funding of the RM
              Transaction on January 31, 1997.

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 are recorded in interest
                   expense and were $171 and $278 for the three month
                   periods ended September  30, 1997 and 1996,
                   respectively, and $723 and $805 for the nine month
                   periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
                   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.  Unamortized deferred leasing costs
                are charged to amortization expense upon early
                termination of the lease.

Revenue
Recognition     The Company recognizes base rental revenue 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 revenue includes income from parking spaces
                leased to tenants.

                Rental income on residential property under operating
                leases having terms generally of one year or less is
                recognized when earned.  

                                       11


Income and
Other Taxes   The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under
              Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code 
              (the "Code").  As a REIT, the Company will not be subject
              to federal income tax to the extent it distributes at
              least 95 percent of its REIT taxable income to its
              shareholders.  REITs are subject to a number of
              organizational and operational requirements.  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 may be subject to certain state and local taxes.

Interest Rate
Swap Agreements    The Company enters into interest rate swap
                   agreements which are designated as a means of
                   managing interest rate exposure on its variable rate
                   debt.  The differential paid or received under these
                   agreements is recognized in interest expense.

Earnings
Per Share     Net income per common share is computed in accordance with APB
              Opinion No.15, "Earnings per Share," and uses the weighted
              average common shares outstanding during the period.  The
              weighted average shares outstanding during the three month
              periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 were 36,457,234 and
              17,045,063, respectively, and for the nine month periods ended
              September 30, 1997 and 1996 were 36,468,974 and 15,802,573,
              respectively.

Dividends and
Distributions
Payable       The dividends and distributions payable at September 30,
              1997 represents dividends payable to shareholders of
              record on October 3, 1997 (36,664,322 shares) and
              distributions payable to minority interest unitholders
              (4,090,170 Units) on that same date.  The third quarter
              dividends and distributions of $0.50 per share and per
              Unit were approved by the Board of Directors on September
              15, 1997 and were paid on October 17, 1997.

Extraordinary
Items         Extraordinary items represent the effect resulting from
              the early settlement of certain debt obligations, net of
              write-off's of related deferred financing costs,
              prepayment penalties, yield maintenance payments and
              other related items.

Underwriting
Commissions
and Offering
Costs         Underwriting commissions and offering costs incurred in
              connection with the Company's stock offerings are
              reflected as a reduction of additional paid-in-capital.

Stock Options      The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using
                   the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting
                   Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, "Accounting for
                   Stock Issued to Employees," and related Interpretations. 
                   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 for the Company's stock option plans.  See
                   Note 11 for discussion of stock compensation.

Reclassifications  Certain reclassifications have been made to prior
                   period balances in order to conform with current
                   period presentation.

TIAA Mortgage
In connection with the RM Transaction, on January 31, 1997, the Company
assumed a $185,283 non-recourse mortgage loan with Teachers Insurance
and Annuity Association of America ("TIAA"), with interest only payable
monthly at a fixed annual rate of 7.18 percent (the "TIAA Mortgage"). 
The TIAA Mortgage is secured and cross-collateralized by 43 of the RM
Properties and matures on December 31, 2003.  The Company, at its
option, may convert the TIAA Mortgage to unsecured  debt upon
achievement by the Company of an investment credit rating of Baa3/BBB-
or better.  The TIAA Mortgage is prepayable in whole or in part subject
to certain provisions, including yield maintenance.

Harborside Mortgages
In connection with the acquisition of Harborside Financial Center
("Harborside"), on November 4, 1996, the Company assumed existing
mortgage debt and was provided seller-financed mortgage debt aggregating
$150,000.   The existing financing, with a principal balance of $105,465
at September 30, 1997, bears interest at a fixed rate of 7.32 percent
for a term of approximately nine years.  The seller-provided financing,
with a principal balance of $44,535 at September 30, 1997, also has a
term of nine years and initially bears interest at a rate of 6.99
percent.  The interest rate on the seller-provided financing will be
reset at the end of the third and sixth loan years based on the yield of
the three-year treasury obligation at that time, with spreads of 110
basis points in years four through six and 130 basis points in years
seven through maturity.

Mortgage Financing
Concurrent with the IPO, the Company's  initial operating subsidiaries,
which own the Company's remaining initial 11 office properties and the
initial multi-family residential property, (collectively 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 was guaranteed under certain conditions by certain partners of
the Cali Group partnerships which owned the Initial Properties. The
Mortgage Financing required 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 bore interest at a net cost to
the Company equal to a fixed rate of 8.02 percent per annum and the
remaining $24,000 bore interest at a net cost to the Company equal to a
floating rate of 100 basis points over one-month LIBOR (5.65625 percent
at September 30, 1997) with a lifetime interest rate cap of 11.6
percent.  Pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Financing, the Company
was required to escrow $143 per month for tenant improvements and
leasing commissions and $53 per month for capital improvements.  On
March 12, 1996, the Company prepaid $5,492 ($1,687 -- fixed rate debt,
$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.  On August 12, 1997, the Company
prepaid in full the remaining balance and retired the Mortgage Financing
from funds made available primarily from drawing on the Unsecured
Facility (see below).  On account of prepayment fees,  loan origination
fees, legal fees and other costs incurred in the retirement of the
Mortgage Financing, an extraordinary loss of $3,583, net of minority
interest's share of the loss ($402) was recorded for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1997.

Fair Lawn Mortgage
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 Mortgage") collateralized by the property,
bearing interest at a fixed rate of 8.25 percent per annum.  The loan
required payment of interest only through March 15, 1996 and requires
payment of principal and interest thereafter, on a 20-year amortization
schedule, with the remaining principal balance due October 1, 2003.  For
the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company paid $305 for
amortization of principal on the Fair Lawn Mortgage.

First Prudential Facility
The Company has a $70,000 revolving credit facility  (the "First 
Prudential Facility") with Prudential Securities Credit Corp. ("PSC"), 
which may be used to fund acquisitions and new development projects and 
for general working capital

                                       14


purposes, including capital expenditures and tenant improvements.  In 
connection with the Mortgage Financing, the Company obtained a $6,005 
letter of credit (the "Letter of Credit"), secured by the First 
Prudential Facility, to meet certain tenant improvement and capital 
expenditure reserve requirements.  The First Prudential  Facility bore  
interest at a floating rate equal to 150 basis points over one-month 
LIBOR for January 1, 1996 through August 31, 1996.  Effective September 
1, 1996, the interest rate was reduced to a floating rate equal to 125 
basis points over one-month  LIBOR.  The First Prudential Facility was a 
recourse liability of the Operating Partnership and was secured by a 
pledge of the $74,500 Bonds held by the Company.  In conjunction with 
obtaining the Unsecured Facility (see below), the Company repaid in full 
and terminated the First Prudential Facility on August 7, 1997.  
Additionally, the Letter of Credit was canceled in conjunction with 
prepayment of the Mortgage Financing on August 12, 1997.

Bank Facility
On February 1, 1996, the Company obtained a credit facility  (the "Bank
Facility") secured by certain of its properties in the amount of $75,000
from two participating banks.  The Bank Facility had a three-year term
and bore interest at 150 basis points over one-month LIBOR.  The terms
of the Bank 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 Bank Facility also required a fee equal to
one quarter of one percent of the unused balance payable quarterly in
arrears. In conjunction with obtaining the Unsecured Facility (see
below), the Company repaid in full and terminated the Bank Facility on
August 7, 1997.

Second Prudential Facility
On November 4, 1996, the Company obtained a revolving credit facility
("Second Prudential Facility") from PSC totaling $80,000 which bears
interest at 125 basis points over one-month LIBOR, and matures on
January 15, 1998.  The Second Prudential Facility is a recourse
liability of the Operating Partnership and is secured by the Company's
equity interest in Harborside.  The terms of the Second Prudential
Facility include certain restrictions and covenants that limit, among
other things, dividend payments and additional indebtedness and that
require compliance with specified financial ratios and other financial
measurements.  Additionally, on August 12, 1997, the Second Prudential
Facility was amended increasing the total commitment from $80,000 to
$100,000 and extending the maturity date to August 31, 1998.  On October
10, 1997, the Company repaid the $4,005 remaining outstanding balance
under the Second Prudential Facility from the Company's cash reserves.

Unsecured Facility
On August 6, 1997, the Company obtained an unsecured revolving credit
facility (the "Unsecured Facility") in the amount of $400,000 from a
group of  13 lender banks.  The Unsecured Facility has a three-year term
and currently bears interest at 125 basis points over one-month LIBOR. 
Based upon the Company's achievement of an investment grade long-term
unsecured debt rating, the interest rate will be reduced, on a sliding
scale, and a competitive bid option will become available.

The terms of the Unsecured 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 Unsecured
Facility also requires a fee on the unused balance payable quarterly in
arrears, at a rate ranging from one-eighth of one percent to one-quarter
of one percent of such balance, depending on the level of borrowings
outstanding in relation to the total facility commitment.

The lending group for the Unsecured Facility includes:  Fleet National
Bank, The Chase Manhattan Bank, and Bankers Trust Company, as agents;
PNC Bank, N.A., Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association,
Commerzbank, and First National Bank of Chicago, as co-agents; and
Keybank, Summit Bank, Crestar Bank, Mellon Bank, N.A., Signet Bank, and
Kredeitbank NV.

In conjunction with the Company obtaining the Unsecured Facility, the
Company drew funds on the new facility to repay in full and terminate
both the First Prudential Facility and the Bank Facility.  On October
15, 1997, the Company repaid $160,000 of the outstanding balance on the
Unsecured Facility in proceeds received from the Company's common stock
offering completed on such date (See Note 11).


                                       15





Contingent Obligation

As part of the Harborside acquisition, the Company agreed to make payments 
(with an estimated net present value of approximately $5,252 at acquisition 
date) to the seller for development rights ("Contingent Obligation") if and 
when the Company commences construction on the acquired site during the next 
several years.  However, the agreement provides, among other things, that 
even if the Company does not commence construction, the seller may 
nevertheless require the Company to acquire these rights during the six-month 
period after the end of the sixth year.  After such period, the seller's 
option lapses, but any development in years 7 through 30 will require a 
payment, on an increasing scale, for the development rights.  For the nine 
months ended September 30, 1997, interest imputed on the Contingent 
Obligation was capitalized, thereby increasing the balance of the Contingent 
Obligation to $5,630 as of September 30, 1997.

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 another interest rate swap 
agreement with a commercial bank.  This 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.

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.

Cash Paid for Interest

Cash paid for interest for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 
and 1996 was $26,922 and $8,665, respectively.

7.  MINORITY INTEREST

Certain individuals and entities own Units in the Operating Partnership. 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.

Units are redeemable by the unitholders at their option, subject to certain 
restrictions, 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.

On January 31, 1997, 1,401,225 Units were issued in connection with the RM 
Transaction.  As of September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the minority 
interest unitholders owned 10.0 and 6.9 percent of the Operating Partnership, 
respectively.

8.  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 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.

9.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Tax Abatement Agreements

Grove Street Property

Pursuant to an agreement with the City of Jersey City, New Jersey, as 
amended, expiring in 2004, the Company is required to make payments in lieu 
of property taxes ("PILOT") on its property at 95 Christopher Columbus Drive, 
Jersey City, Hudson County, New Jersey.  Such PILOT, as defined, is $1,267 
per annum through May 31, 1999 and $1,584 per annum through May 31, 2004.

Harborside Financial Center Property

Pursuant to a separate agreement with the City of Jersey City, New Jersey 
obtained by the former owner of the Harborside property in 1988 and assumed 
by the Company as part of the acquisition of the property on November 4, 
1996, the Company is required to make PILOT payments on its Harborside 
property.  The agreement, which commenced in 1990, are 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 fifteen.  
Total Project Costs, as defined, are $148,712.

10. TENANT LEASES

The Properties are leased to tenants under operating leases with various 
expiration dates through 2020.  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.

11. 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 provide 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 May 13, 1996, the 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 a shelf registration statement with the 
SEC for an aggregate amount of $500,000 in equity securities of the Company.  
The registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on August 2, 
1996. 

On August 13, 1996, the Company sold 3,450,000 shares of its common stock 
through a public stock offering (the "August 1996 Offering"), which included 
an exercise of the underwriters over-allotment option of 450,000 shares.  Net 
proceeds from the August 1996 Offering (after offering costs) were 
approximately $76,830.  The offering was conducted using one underwriter and 
the shares were issued from the Company's $250,000 shelf registration 
statement (File No. 33-96538).

Pursuant to the Company's $500,000 shelf registration statement, on November 
22, 1996, the Company completed an underwritten public offer and sale of 
17,537,500 shares of its common stock using several different underwriters to 
underwrite such public offer and sale (which included an exercise of the 
underwriters' over-allotment option of 2,287,500 shares).  The Company 
received approximately $441,215 in net proceeds (after offering costs) from 
the

                                       17



offering, and  used such funds to effect certain of the Company's property 
acquisitions in November and December 1996, pay down outstanding borrowings 
on its revolving credit facilities, and investing the excess funds in 
Overnight Investments.

On December 31, 1996, the Company filed a shelf registration statement with 
the SEC for an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 in equity securities of the 
Company.  The registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on 
January 7, 1997.

On May 15, 1997, the stockholders approved an increase in the authorized 
shares of common stock in the Company from 95,000,000 to 190,000,000.

Pursuant to the Company's $1,000,000 shelf registration statement, on October 
15, 1997, the Company completed an underwritten public offer and sale of 
13,000,000 shares of its common stock using several different underwriters to 
underwrite such public offer and sale.  The Company received approximately 
$489,000 in net proceeds (after offering costs) from the offering.  The 
Company used $160,000 of such proceeds to repay outstanding borrowings on its 
Unsecured Facility and anticipates using the remainder of the proceeds to 
fund a portion of the purchase price of the Mack Transaction, for other 
potential acquisitions, and for general corporate purposes.

Stock Option Plans

In 1994, and as afterwards amended, the Company established the Cali Employee 
Stock Option Plan ("Employee Plan") and the Cali Director Stock Option Plan 
("Director Plan") under which a total of 2,980,188 (subject to adjustment) of 
the Company's shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance 
(2,780,188 shares under the Employee Plan and 200,000 shares under the 
Director Plan).  Stock options granted under the Employee Plan in 1994 and 
1995 become exercisable over a three-year period and those options granted 
under the Employee Plan in 1996 and 1997 become exercisable over a five-year 
period.  All stock options granted under the 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.

                                       18

Stock Compensation

In January 1997, the Company entered into employment contracts with seven of 
its key executives which provide for, among other things, compensation in the 
form of stock awards (the "Stock Award Rights") and Company-financed  stock 
purchase rights (the "Stock Purchase Rights"), and associated tax obligation 
payments.  In connection with the Stock Award Rights, the executives will 
receive 199,070 shares of the Company's common stock vesting over a five-year 
period contingent on the Company meeting certain performance objectives.  
Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Rights, the Company 
provided fixed rate, non-prepayable loans, aggregating $4,750, to such 
executives to finance their purchase of 152,000 shares of the Company's 
common stock, which the Company has agreed to forgive ratably over five 
years.  Such loans were for amounts equal to the fair market value of the 
associated shares at the date of grant.  Subsequently, from April 18, 1997 
through April 24, 1997, the Company purchased, for constructive retirement, 
152,000 shares of its outstanding common stock for $4,680.   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 152,000 Units for $4,680.

The value of the Stock Award Rights at September 30, 1997, net of amounts 
recognized as compensation expense, is recorded as unamortized stock 
compensation and shown as a separate component of stockholders' equity.  
Unamortized stock compensation for the Stock Award Rights is amortized to 
expense as certain performance objectives are reached.

Additionally, the balance of the loans related to the Stock Purchase Rights 
at the grant date, net of amounts recognized as compensation expense, is 
recorded as unamortized stock compensation and shown as a separate component 
of stockholders' equity.  Unamortized stock compensation is amortized to 
expense ratably over the five-year vesting period.

                                       19



Included in general and administrative expense for the three and nine month 
periods ended September 30, 1997 is $778 and $2,257, respectively, relating 
to the Stock Award Rights and Stock Purchase Rights.

12. IMPACT OF RECENTLY - ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share," 
("FASB No. 128") which will be effective for periods ending after December 
15, 1997.  Earlier application is not permitted.  FASB No. 128 requires a 
dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") on the face 
of the income statement for all companies with complex capital structures 
even where the effect of such dilution is not material.  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.  The Company will adopt FASB No. 128 in its 
December 31, 1997 financial statements and will restate all prior period EPS 
information.  The Company will continue to account for EPS under APB No. 15 
until that time.

The following pro forma information presents the Company's results for the 
periods indicated in accordance with FASB No. 128.

For the three month period ended September 30, 1997:

In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 
130, Reporting Comprehensive Income ("FASB No. 130"), which establishes 
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its 
components.  This statement requires a separate statement to report the 
components of comprehensive income for each period reported.  The provisions 
of this statement are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 
1997.  Management believes that they currently do not have items that would 
require presentation in a separate statement of comprehensive income.

In June 1997, the FASB also issued Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standards No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related 
Information, ("FASB No. 131"), which establishes standards for the way that 
public business enterprises report information about operating segments in 
annual financial statements and require that those enterprises report 
selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports 
issued to shareholders.  This statement is effective for financial statements 
for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. 

13. PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Capitalization

On January 23, 1996, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement 
with a commercial bank.  The swap agreement has a three-year term and a 
notional amount of $26 million, which fixes the Company's one-month LIBOR 
base to 5.265 percent.

On February 1, 1996, the Company obtained a credit facility  (the "Bank 
Facility") secured by certain of its properties in the amount of $75 million 
from two participating banks.  The Bank Facility had a three-year term and 
bore interest at 150 basis points over one-month LIBOR.  The terms of the 
Bank Facility included certain restrictions and covenants which limited, among 
other things, dividend payments and additional indebtedness and which required 
compliance with specified financial ratios and other financial measurements.  
The Bank Facility also required a fee equal to one quarter of one percent of 
the unused balance payable quarterly in arrears. In conjunction with 
obtaining the Unsecured Facility, the Company repaid in full and terminated 
the Bank Facility on August 7, 1997.

On July 29, 1996, the Company filed a shelf registration statement (File No. 
333-09081) with the Securities and Exchanges Commission ("SEC") for an 
aggregate amount of $500 million in equity securities of the Company. The 
registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on August 2, 1996. 

On August 13, 1996,  the Company sold 3,450,000 shares of its common stock 
through a public stock offering (the "August 1996 Offering"), which included 
an exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option of 450,000 shares.  
Net proceeds from the August 1996 Offering (after offering costs) were 
approximately $76.8 million.  The offering was conducted using one 
underwriter and the shares were issued from the Company's $250 million shelf 
registration statement (File No. 33-96538).

On November 4, 1996, the Company obtained a revolving credit facility 
("Second Prudential Facility") from PSC  totaling $80 million which bears 
interest at 125 basis points over one-month LIBOR, and matures on January 15, 
1998.  The Second Prudential Facility is a recourse liability of the 
Operating Partnership and is secured by the Company's equity interest in 
Harborside.  The terms of the Second Prudential Facility include certain 
restrictions and covenants that limit, among other things, dividend payments 
and additional indebtedness and that require compliance with specified 
financial ratios and other financial measurements.  On August 7, 1997, the 
Company repaid in full the outstanding balance under the Second Prudential 
Facility with funds drawn from the Unsecured Facility.  Additionally, on 
August 12, 1997, the Second Prudential Facility was amended increasing the 
total commitment from $80 million to $100 million and extending the maturity 
date to August 31, 1998.

In addition, on November 4, 1996, the Company assumed existing debt and was 
provided seller-financed mortgage debt aggregating $150 million (as more 
fully described in Note 6).

Pursuant to the Company's $500 million shelf registration statement (File No. 
333-09081), on November 22, 1996, the Company completed an underwritten 
public offer and sale of 17,537,500 shares of its common stock using several 
different underwriters to underwrite such public offer and sale (which 
included an exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option of 2,287,500 
shares).  The Company received approximately $441.2 million in net proceeds 
(after offering costs) from the offering, and  used such funds to acquire 
certain of the Company's property acquisitions in 

                                       25


November and December 1996, pay down outstanding borrowings on its revolving 
credit facilities, and investing the excess funds in Overnight Investments.

On December 31, 1996, the Company filed a shelf registration statement with 
the SEC for an aggregate amount of $1 billion  in equity securities of the 
Company.  The registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on 
January 7, 1997.

On May 15, 1997, the stockholders approved an increase in the authorized 
shares of common stock in the Company from 95 million to 190 million.

In connection with the RM Transaction on January 31, 1997, the Company 
assumed a $185.3 million non-recourse mortgage loan with TIAA (as more fully 
described in Note 6).

From April 18, 1997 through April 24, 1997, the Company purchased, for 
constructive retirement, 152,000 shares of its outstanding common stock for 
$4.7 million.  Concurrent with this purchase, the Company sold to the 
Operating Partnership 152,000 Units for $4.7 million.

On August 6, 1997, the Company obtained an unsecured revolving credit 
facility (the "Unsecured Facility") in the amount of $400 million from a 
group of 13 lender banks.  The Unsecured Facility has a three-year term and 
currently bears interest at 125 basis over one-month LIBOR.  Based upon the 
Company's achievement of an investment grade long-term unsecured debt rating, 
the interest rate will be reduced, on a sliding scale, and a competitive bid 
option will become available.

The lending group for the Unsecured Facility includes: Fleet National Bank, 
The Chase Manhattan Bank, and Bankers Trust Company, as agents; PNC Bank, 
N.A., Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association, Commerzbank, 
and First National Bank of Chicago, as co-agents; and Keybank, Summit Bank, 
Crestar Bank, Mellon Bank, N.A., Signet Bank, and Kredeitbank NV.

In conjunction with the Company obtaining the Unsecured Facility, the Company 
drew funds on the new facility to repay in full and terminate both the First 
Prudential Facility and the Bank Facility.  The Company drew an additional 
$70 million to repay in full the outstanding balance under the Second 
Prudential Facility.  As of August 12, 1997, the Company's two remaining 
revolving credit facilities consist of the Unsecured Facility and the Second 
Prudential Facility.

On August 12, 1997, the Company prepaid in full and retired the secured 
Mortgage Financing from funds made available primarily from drawing on the 
Unsecured Facility.

Following this secured debt prepayment, the Company has four secured mortgage 
debt instruments remaining; the $185.3 million TIAA Mortgage, the two 
mortgages comprising the $150 million in Harborside Mortgages, and the $18.2 
million Fair Lawn Mortgage.

As of October 31, 1997, the Company has 85 unencumbered properties totaling 
7.2 million square feet, representing 58 percent of the Company's portfolio.

On September 18, 1997, the Company entered into a Contribution and Exchange 
Agreement (the "Agreement") with certain contributing partnerships and other 
entities affiliated with The Mack Company and Patriot American Office Group 
(collectively, "The Mack Group").  The Agreement provides for, among other 
things, the Company to acquire 54 office properties, aggregating 
approximately 9.2 million square feet, (the "Mack Properties") for a total 
cost of approximately $1.2 billion. According to terms of the Agreement, the 
cost of the transaction (the "Mack Transaction") will be financed through: 
(i) the assumption of an aggregate of $299.7 million in mortgage financing 
(the "Mack Assumed Debt"); (ii) approximately $469.0 million in cash (using 
excess proceeds from its October 1997 common stock offering, see Note 11, as 
well as drawing on the Company's revolving credit facilities); (iii) the 
issuance of 3,972,318 Common Units in the Operating Partnership, a portion of 
which may be Contingent Units; (iv) 

                                       26



the issuance of 250,256 Preferred Units in the Operating Partnership 
convertible into Common Units; and (v) the issuance of two million Warrants 
to purchase Common Units.

Pursuant to the Company's $1 billion shelf registration statement, on October 
15, 1997, the Company completed an underwritten public offer and sale of 13 
million shares of its common stock using several different underwriters to 
underwrite such public offer and sale.  The Company received approximately 
$489 million in net proceeds (after offering costs) from the offering, the 
Company used $160 million of such proceeds to repay outstanding borrowings on 
its Unsecured Facility, while the Company anticipates using the remainder of 
the proceeds to fund a portion of the purchase price of the Mack Transaction, 
for other potential acquisitions, and for general corporate purposes.

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 borrowings under its 
credit facilities and other debt and equity financing.

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 Second Prudential Facility and the Unsecured 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 operating activities, long-term or 
short term borrowings (including draws on the Company's credit facilities) 
and the issuance of debt securities or additional equity securities.  In 
addition, the Company anticipates utilizing the Second Prudential Facility 
and the Unsecured Facility primarily to fund property acquisition activities. 

The Company does not intend to reserve funds to retire the existing TIAA 
Mortgage and Harborside Mortgages,  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 distribution 
discussed below may be adversely affected.

To maintain its qualification as a REIT, 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 continue to make regular quarterly 
distributions to its stockholders which, based upon current policy, in the 
aggregate would equal approximately $99.3 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 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 
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.

(1) Assumes redemption of all Units, calculated on a weighted average basis, 
    for shares of Common stock in the Company.

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.
